Speaker 1: On this episode that heat check. Feeling a little better,
Speaker 1: feeling a little more energy. But we've got a real
Speaker 1: you know who's got energy? This budding rivalry, this real
Speaker 1: deal holy field rivalry between two rookies that was on
Speaker 1: full display and needs your attention. We also talk about
Speaker 1: if Luca the sought this superstar in the league right now,
Speaker 1: because I think he might be the Bucks. Do it, folks,
Speaker 1: they actually pull the trigger and higher doc dirty mac rivers.
Speaker 1: We also get in this news from around the league,
Speaker 1: another firing, another one bites the dust after the firing
Speaker 1: of Adrian Griffin after a brutal cold spell. It feels
Speaker 1: like spring around here, so's get right into an enemy.
Speaker 1: Let's drop that motherfucker mus that.
Speaker 2: Should be here.
Speaker 1: I am fired up to talk about this rivalry. I
Speaker 1: was this is something that you only see like once
Speaker 1: every twenty five years. Last time I think we saw
Speaker 1: it is probably what magic and Bird like. This level
Speaker 1: of two highly sought after, high reputation. Could they be
Speaker 1: transcendent in the league. Yeah, one guy wasn't in college,
Speaker 1: came overseas. The other guy was in college and hurt
Speaker 1: his foot. But like this is the stuff of the
Speaker 1: front cover of two k right like face off. You
Speaker 1: know this is gonna fuel the league. I think for
Speaker 1: the next twenty years. I'm talking about Wemby versus Chet. Things.
Speaker 1: Things with them have gotten to a level where everyone
Speaker 1: on Twitter has seen it, has known it, has pointed
Speaker 1: it out. There is there, there is beef, there's something
Speaker 1: something spicy's going on between them. We watched them play
Speaker 1: against one another once before and it was the same,
Speaker 1: and now I get additional confirmation. Wednesday, the Thunder and
Speaker 1: the Spurs squared off for the second time, even though
Speaker 1: it was a blowout. Maybe because it was a blowout,
Speaker 1: I don't know, but I tuned in. I tuned in
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter and that's when the shit got real.
Speaker 1: The difference between the Thunder and the Spurs is like
Speaker 1: a golf. The Spurs are probably one of the worst
Speaker 1: teams in the league and the Thunder, or maybe a
Speaker 1: Western Conference finals game, the level of talent between the
Speaker 1: team is a golf. It is possible. I think that
Speaker 1: the Thunder bench could beat the first team of the Spurs.
Speaker 1: Aaron Wiggins, Cason Wallace, Isaiah Joe oh Kenrick Williams, Mesich,
Speaker 1: Jylen Williams, just off ir At Alexi Pokoschewski. I think
Speaker 1: they beat the starters of the Spurs more than half
Speaker 1: the time. But really, what we're talking about are the
Speaker 1: best two rookies just did Fuck the wards, fuck the press.
Speaker 1: It's mono imano. Let's see who can do our seventh
Speaker 1: foot plus thing and take the other one off the
Speaker 1: dribble and embarrass them and stare them down. So I'm
Speaker 1: I'm like, I bet, it's something that I wanted to
Speaker 1: check in on. I needed some blocks from Wemby and Chet.
Speaker 1: I needed some rebounds. We were close to coming home.
Speaker 1: But I admit when I saw the score, I was
Speaker 1: a little worried. Okay, so he's up a million and
Speaker 1: it's the start of the fourth quarter. I thought I
Speaker 1: lost the bet. I tuned in and guess who's out there? Everyone?
Speaker 1: Everyone chets out there. Vic's out there. And I thought
Speaker 1: I tuned in to the Western Conference Finals seventh game
Speaker 1: because they was when the intensity ratcheted up. Victor every
Speaker 1: time Chet went to this, every time Chet checked in,
Speaker 1: Victor goes to the scorer's table, and in a game
Speaker 1: that was largely over, couldn't tell it to those guys.
Speaker 1: They were back and forth and back and forth. I
Speaker 1: think the fourth quarter turned him up. It was ISO
Speaker 1: ball possession after io ball possession. Both teams were like,
Speaker 1: let's just let him go to work. Let's just let
Speaker 1: these guys cook. The game is in hand. Who cares, really, Like,
Speaker 1: let's just turn this into an exhibition. We'll call it
Speaker 1: one on one with the other four on both teams
Speaker 1: just out on the perimeter. So Wemby gets the ball
Speaker 1: at the top of the key, drives, puts the shoulder
Speaker 1: into Chet's chest, hammers home a dunk, and then smiles,
Speaker 1: laughs and stares the man down for like two full seconds.
Speaker 1: Soon after, Chet gets so frustrated he sets an aggressive
Speaker 1: screen on Wemby and gets called for the offense. It's
Speaker 1: a foul. The next possession, Chet's like, well, I don't care, Ah,
Speaker 1: fuck this, this guy up too bodies. Wenby again gets
Speaker 1: in the way, grabs the steel, goes coast to coast,
Speaker 1: sweet little up and underlayup just one after the the
Speaker 1: next back in the forth, drives in the paint, ball fakes, middies, threes,
Speaker 1: step backs, little one foot floaters. These guys did everything.
Speaker 1: It made. It made the blowout must see TV. I
Speaker 1: honestly was looking around, like, is anybody else talking about
Speaker 1: this online? Because I feel this is something that something
Speaker 1: is going on here. The end result is we all
Speaker 1: knew and I guess became aware if you didn't know,
Speaker 1: that this is a real rivalry. This is not a
Speaker 1: O cute two seven footers. We have to force them
Speaker 1: to not liking each other. I think that they actually don't.
Speaker 1: I think that they believe, each one of them that
Speaker 1: they are the best big men new big men in
Speaker 1: the league right now. It is personal. Final stat line
Speaker 1: Chet seven seventeen nine and four, a steal in three
Speaker 1: blocks Wemby twenty four, twelve and five. With the steal
Speaker 1: in four blocks, one player had to wor stat line,
Speaker 1: but his team blew the other one the fuck out.
Speaker 1: A reporter asked Wemby after the game about what he
Speaker 1: likes playing against Chet, and he's and they're like, do
Speaker 1: you like do you like that one on one type environment?
Speaker 1: And he goes, yeah, I don't really ever play one
Speaker 1: on one. It's usually one on two. And truthfully, you
Speaker 1: look at that Twitter, they've got screen grabs where it's
Speaker 1: one on three. There are three thunder Shady Wemby. They've
Speaker 1: created a wall around him, and then he said this
Speaker 1: in response to another question about whether he's pissed that
Speaker 1: he didn't win Western Conference Rookie of the Month and
Speaker 1: that he's only seventh in All Star voting, he goes, yeah,
Speaker 1: of course, I'm mad. At the end of the day,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get what I deserve. Though, every game is
Speaker 1: a statement game from now on. Okay, okay, Wemby, you
Speaker 1: give us those statement games. Yeah, how come every game
Speaker 1: wasn't a statement game before. Chet, for his part, played
Speaker 1: the role of the mature elder statesman. He said, yeah, obviously,
Speaker 1: that's the headline that you guys have. That's what ESPN promotes,
Speaker 1: that's what the NBA is promoting, and rightfully so. Vic's
Speaker 1: a great player. I think I have a long way
Speaker 1: to go in this league, but I plan to be
Speaker 1: a great player and play a long time. But that
Speaker 1: doesn't take away from what the focus is. The focuses
Speaker 1: Thunder versus the Spurs. Could have fooled me, could have
Speaker 1: fooled me. I didn't realize that. I felt it was
Speaker 1: Chet versus Wemby. I like Chet very mature. He's a killer,
Speaker 1: Let's be honest. That's not true like he he absolutely
Speaker 1: loves going against Wemby a lot of people thought the
Speaker 1: Rookie of the Year award was Chet's. A lot of
Speaker 1: people thought it was on the line last night, two
Speaker 1: nights ago. If that's true, Victor got the best of Chet.
Speaker 1: He's now back in front at minus one fifty. Chet
Speaker 1: has moved back from minus numbers to plus one twenty.
Speaker 1: If you like Chet, which is not what I do,
Speaker 1: I think you might well put some of the money
Speaker 1: on the line for Chet to win Rookie of the Year.
Speaker 1: One hundred dollars gets you one hundred and twenty dollars back.
Speaker 1: The X factor, though, obviously, is the OKAC is good
Speaker 1: and the Spurs are not good. The Spurs are a
Speaker 1: lottery team. Okay See is second in the West thunder
Speaker 1: fifth rank defense starting players who are aged twenty one,
Speaker 1: twenty one, two, twenty four, and twenty five. The Spurs
Speaker 1: have a defensive rating of one nineteen point two. One
Speaker 1: nineteen point two is is right around Trey Young, Like
Speaker 1: that's just that's what that is so not good, Like
Speaker 1: somewhere between Trey Young and Dame Lillard is not good.
Speaker 1: It's kind of hard to compare the two teams really
Speaker 1: like Wemby on the Thunder would be very good too.
Speaker 1: I promise you one is playing on an elite basketball
Speaker 1: team and the other is facing triple teams every night
Speaker 1: because he doesn't have shake Gilges Alexander. He has Devin Vassel,
Speaker 1: which very good player, not Shay Gilges Alexander. The good
Speaker 1: news if you didn't check in and watch the game,
Speaker 1: they play two more times against each other. I have
Speaker 1: already looked at flights on April tenth. Okay, see never
Speaker 1: been to Oklahoma City. The Thunder play the Spurs again
Speaker 1: if the Rookie of the Year is still in doubt,
Speaker 1: and there's no reason to think that it's not gonna
Speaker 1: be close, folks, April tenth is gonna be a game,
Speaker 1: all right? Moving on, What is it about these two teams?
Speaker 1: Fucking weirdos. They're just a weird rivalry, aren't they. I
Speaker 1: don't know where the origin is, but every time these
Speaker 1: two teams play, it's weird. It's spicy, it's got drama,
Speaker 1: it's got strange interactions with the media after, it's got
Speaker 1: strange interactions with the fans during We're talking about the
Speaker 1: Suns and Mavericks and They're always up to no good.
Speaker 1: It's always something with these two. They don't I don't
Speaker 1: think they like each other. Not gonna lie. Devin Booker
Speaker 1: went off for forty six last night. You think he's
Speaker 1: still mad about that Luca meme where Luca was up
Speaker 1: I think fifty in the first half and just just
Speaker 1: staring at Devin Booker's face when he's trying to play defense.
Speaker 1: But he beat him forty six points to the tune
Speaker 1: of that in a blowout win, one hundred and thirty
Speaker 1: two to one on nine. So then there was a skirmish.
Speaker 1: The skirmish originated by Grant Williams, the all time instigator,
Speaker 1: the all time irritant. He was supposed to be the
Speaker 1: offseason signing and he is pretty much sucked last month.
Speaker 1: So he's been trying throughout the court tire course of
Speaker 1: the game to bait Nurkic, but mostly baiting Nurkic through
Speaker 1: fucking with other players on the team, like Kevin Durant.
Speaker 1: So he pushes Kevin Durant down on the ground. He's
Speaker 1: trying to stomp towards kd. Nurkic has to push him away.
Speaker 1: They get tax It's a whole thing. He gets, he
Speaker 1: gets fouled out. He's a jack did. Afterwards, they asked
Speaker 1: Booker about it, Hey, like, do you think this guy
Speaker 1: has an agenda that has nothing to do with winning
Speaker 1: the game. By the way, this isn't even the main storyline.
Speaker 1: This is just the apertif he said, yeah he did, Hell,
Speaker 1: yeah he did. It's not necessary. I don't even think
Speaker 1: Grant Williams wanted to play basketball tonight. He wants to
Speaker 1: do the antics. Man, we're out there trying to hoop,
Speaker 1: so big props to Nerk for holding that down. If
Speaker 1: I would have seen that, I would have done the
Speaker 1: same thing. That's how we get down. By the way,
Speaker 1: I love Devin Booker's outfit choices. He went full out trollo,
Speaker 1: had the one one button and everything else was open. Anyway,
Speaker 1: he says, we're not with that nonsense. It was nonsense too.
Speaker 1: Grant Williams is the epitome of nonsense. The Mans were
Speaker 1: up by sixteen at one point, but after Grant got tossed,
Speaker 1: it was just pretty much downhill for the rest of
Speaker 1: the night. But this is not even the story, folks.
Speaker 1: The real story is the fireworks between Luca and a
Speaker 1: media reporter like after the game and Tim McMahon of
Speaker 1: the Hoop Collective podcast. His nickname is Banned McMahon because
Speaker 1: he gets banned from arenas, so he's a little spicy.
Speaker 1: Luca was having a rough night, we'll call it a
Speaker 1: frustrated night. He had thirty four, which you know, it's
Speaker 1: light work for Luca, but he was eleven for twenty four.
Speaker 1: They're obviously losing the game. He had five turnovers, so
Speaker 1: things weren't going great for Luca in the first half.
Speaker 1: You know, you might imagine that Dallas fans probably not
Speaker 1: super stoked with their own team in their own arena
Speaker 1: getting blown out by their rival. So he starts getting
Speaker 1: heckled by this guy actually in a Devin Booker jersey.
Speaker 1: So okay. With three minutes or so left in the game,
Speaker 1: fourth quarter, it was clear, Mavericks, they're losing this game.
Speaker 1: They're getting their asses beat. It was all over. But
Speaker 1: the shouting. Luca had had enough of this fan right then.
Speaker 1: Not first quarter, second quarter, third quarter, No, No, he
Speaker 1: had had enough. He was jogging back on defense to
Speaker 1: get this guy the fuck out of here, get him out.
Speaker 1: He even gave him a little like uugh little wave
Speaker 1: like get him out? What did the fans say? We
Speaker 1: all want to know what could have been so inflammatory,
Speaker 1: so egregious, so disparaging that Luca needed right then, not
Speaker 1: to let it go because there's only a few minutes left,
Speaker 1: but to say, get discloy out of here, get him out,
Speaker 1: get him out right now. Well, the fan uh called
Speaker 1: Luca fat basically uh in not in those words, but
Speaker 1: what he said. We have multiple people around the league
Speaker 1: because they were that fan was right near the media,
Speaker 1: was Luca, you're tired, get your ass on the treadmill.
Speaker 1: Is Luca, you're fat. You need to get in shape.
Speaker 1: You are getting beat because you're not in condition, And
Speaker 1: just like that, get discloyo coetme out. Fan was probably
Speaker 1: ready to leave anyway the game was over. He probably
Speaker 1: wanted to beat the crowds, grab an uber, get some dinner.
Speaker 1: Who knows, but it gets even more hilarious. So Tim McMahon,
Speaker 1: who he's got an interesting sense of humor, he tweeted
Speaker 1: something out about Luca and what the fan said, and
Speaker 1: then he asked Luca about it after the game, and
Speaker 1: Luca got chippy with Tim McMahon pretty fast.
Speaker 3: I know, I saw you when you said about the fan.
Speaker 3: You know that was not a true all that was
Speaker 3: not the only thing he said. But I knew you
Speaker 3: would be the first one to point out something like that,
Speaker 3: because I'm not going to say what he said, but
Speaker 3: I knew you were going to be the first one
Speaker 3: to put out something like that.
Speaker 4: So I just saw that. Man, It's just funny.
Speaker 3: He always seemed to be the first one to put
Speaker 3: some bad stuff about me.
Speaker 2: First of all, ninety nine percent of stuff i've written
Speaker 2: that he's been good.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I was sitting two rows behind us, all.
Speaker 4: Right, So it was the only thing. It was that
Speaker 4: time he said something.
Speaker 2: The only thing was what you reacted to.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was hearing the whole first half, right, Oh,
Speaker 4: you didn't hear anything.
Speaker 2: It was definitely all okay, there we go acting.
Speaker 4: You put out something that was just the only thing.
Speaker 5: But what was the finale.
Speaker 4: It's not the issue.
Speaker 3: I'm just seeing you seems to be the first one
Speaker 3: to always put something bad about me.
Speaker 4: It's fine, it's.
Speaker 2: All Why did you ask for the fan to be ejected?
Speaker 4: Because he was cursing me the whole first have.
Speaker 2: To Why don't you ask for the ejected in the
Speaker 2: first half.
Speaker 4: Then, because son never would ejected fan. They pay for tickets,
Speaker 4: but I had enough. You know, it's a little bit
Speaker 4: of frustration, Pauls.
Speaker 1: A little bit of frustration. There we get to the
Speaker 1: heart of the matter, because if what he said didn't matter,
Speaker 1: and he was also chirping you the whole first half,
Speaker 1: the whole thing doesn't make any damn sense. Luca, you're
Speaker 1: not making any damn sense. But here, here's where we
Speaker 1: get to the heart of what Luca is his issue with.
Speaker 2: You turned your head and looked over at him after
Speaker 2: he said that. That's I mean, that's what we saw.
Speaker 4: The guy, the bad guy in the media.
Speaker 2: Right, Sorry, you're fairly portrayed of the media.
Speaker 1: No, do you think you're fairly portrayed in the media, Luca? No,
Speaker 1: Luca the bad guy? Okay, Luca, you're the bad Luca
Speaker 1: the bad guy? You mean, the guy who is essentially
Speaker 1: James Harden but gets treated like he's Michael Jordan. Are
Speaker 1: we serious? Luca might be one of the most protected
Speaker 1: NBA players in the last twenty years. We give Luca
Speaker 1: a pass on everything. He is our Slovenian brother. The
Speaker 1: media fucking loves Luca. One guy doesn't slurp up on
Speaker 1: everything that Luca does. And he's like, ah, you just
Speaker 1: hate me, You just hate me so much. Oh I
Speaker 1: knew you were gonna be the one. Ah, I knew, Oh,
Speaker 1: Luca the bad guy. Y'all just paint me out to
Speaker 1: be the bad guy. This is fucking insane. Luca used
Speaker 1: to play in Europe. Europe. Let me if you are
Speaker 1: not aware of what basketball is like in Eastern Europe.
Speaker 1: They carry weapons to the game. People have been stabbed,
Speaker 1: hooligan culture in the EPO. You think that's bad, No, no, sir,
Speaker 1: there's like fireworks going off in an indoor arena. Google
Speaker 1: this shit. Luca played in that when he was sixteen
Speaker 1: years old. Are we like? One little fan chirps him
Speaker 1: about getting on a treadmillon He's like, good, Gloria out
Speaker 1: of there, get him out. This man's gotten soft. Luca
Speaker 1: has been become soft really in this country. Some the
Speaker 1: creature comforts of Dallas, Texas have gotten to him. He's
Speaker 1: a generational talent, no doubt, But villain villain India, I'll
Speaker 1: be the bad guy. You are just soft all around.
Speaker 1: You complain to the refs every second you can. Your
Speaker 1: coaches pissed, your second coaches pissed, your gm is pit.
Speaker 1: Everybody knows you are a whiny bitch. I love Luca,
Speaker 1: but in that realm whiner whiner. You do not take
Speaker 1: your conditioning seriously. You do not take your diet seriously.
Speaker 1: And if if you're gonna get chirped about the thing
Speaker 1: that you don't do, then what are we even talking about?
Speaker 1: Let me just go side road on you. Kevin Love
Speaker 1: used to look like a house. He did. Kevin Love
Speaker 1: used to have chipmunk cheeks and tricep fat. And you
Speaker 1: know what he did. What happened to him when he
Speaker 1: came into Macarrena. We call him fat, We call them
Speaker 1: baby fat, We call them all kinds of mean things.
Speaker 1: It was so bad that we as a student body,
Speaker 1: gotten email about it said do not say this about
Speaker 1: opposing players. We do not want you. They gave out
Speaker 1: pieces of paper to the pit crew about all of
Speaker 1: the mean things we were gonna chant about Kevin Love.
Speaker 1: Why one, It was very easy, ammo. He was fat too.
Speaker 1: He spurned us by not going to Oregon and going
Speaker 1: to UCLA as an Oregon boy. It was so bad.
Speaker 1: We were punished. The pit crew was put to rest
Speaker 1: for like two weeks. Luca candle that in the NBA
Speaker 1: making millions of dollars, if you can't take your conditioning
Speaker 1: seriously and you can't take the heckling, maybe winning isn't
Speaker 1: the most important thing to you. Maybe you are closer
Speaker 1: to James Harden than we even thought. Back to him
Speaker 1: and Tim McMahon, what a tremendous exchange. I need more
Speaker 1: of it. I love it. It's not Tim McMahon's job
Speaker 1: to carry water for the Dallas Mavericks or for Luka Doncic.
Speaker 1: And it's not hard to write stories about Luca, not
Speaker 1: hard at all. It is hard to ask him. Hey, Luca,
Speaker 1: to his face, gotta be just a real grizzly veteran move. Hey,
Speaker 1: what did that fans say to you again? They got
Speaker 1: you to kick him out of the game. Luca, by
Speaker 1: the way, did not answer. He never answered, He never confirmed.
Speaker 1: It was about my weight that set me off. It
Speaker 1: was that was the final straw. I don't know one
Speaker 1: hundred percent not what is bothering Luca. Some of those
Speaker 1: guys don't want criticism, and when they do, they remember
Speaker 1: that criticism sounds like he's remembered Tim McMahon a lot.
Speaker 1: Maybe that's the sign of being great, like Lebron remembers
Speaker 1: every single bad thing that anybody's ever said about him.
Speaker 1: Or Steph is going to the locker room at halftime
Speaker 1: and hearing this annoying girl say that the Warriors won't
Speaker 1: go nine and one, and so he comes back and
Speaker 1: draws fifty on the Atlanta Hawks to go nine to one.
Speaker 1: But maybe, just maybe it's not that. Maybe it's a
Speaker 1: sign that you are just all right. Lots popping around
Speaker 1: the league, So let's get into it. So the Wizard said, well,
Speaker 1: if the Bucks can fire a guy who went thirty
Speaker 1: and thirteen, how many wins they have seven seven wins,
Speaker 1: we can definitely fire west Unsale Junior. But like, they
Speaker 1: didn't really fire him because they're the Wizards, you know,
Speaker 1: they don't just do the right thing. They do the
Speaker 1: like weird soft thing. They reassigned them to a front
Speaker 1: office role. So he's fired. It's kind of like what
Speaker 1: happened to Travis Schlenk when he was reassigned when they
Speaker 1: were really firing him for the Atlanta Hawks. They don't
Speaker 1: want to buy them out, so they're just putting them
Speaker 1: to work in some random office in some strange role.
Speaker 1: My mom had a friend who worked for the Forest
Speaker 1: Service and he was trying to unionize, and so they
Speaker 1: put him on another floor by himself, on the union floor.
Speaker 1: It was just him, and they gave him busy work.
Speaker 1: And then one day he opened some random closet and
Speaker 1: all of the busy work that they had him to
Speaker 1: do was in there. No one signed off on it,
Speaker 1: no one stamped it. So what did he do. He
Speaker 1: ended up finding a couch from some other floor and
Speaker 1: putting it in his office and he just slept there.
Speaker 1: That's what I That's what I imagine west UNSELLD Junior is
Speaker 1: doing right now somewhere in the Wizard's facility. They've given
Speaker 1: him a role that has no meaning. No one's looking
Speaker 1: at his work. They just they want to make his
Speaker 1: life miserable because they can't really afford because they're cheap.
Speaker 1: They can't just pay him out. Let him do something else,
Speaker 1: let him play golf. They're like, no, you're coming into
Speaker 1: work every fucking day. Okay, we're gonna breathe down your
Speaker 1: neck on things that are meaningless. Anyway, they are desperately
Speaker 1: hanging onto the title of being the second worst team
Speaker 1: in the NBA, behind the Detroit Pistons, who are, by
Speaker 1: the way, breathing down their necks with a two and
Speaker 1: three stretch in their last five, which sounds bad, but
Speaker 1: it's pretty good for the Detroit Pistons. Not gonna lie
Speaker 1: and now it's out of nowhere, Brian Keith, if his
Speaker 1: lead assistant is going to take over for the remainder
Speaker 1: of the year and in the offseason, they're gonna conduct
Speaker 1: a comprehensive search for their next head coach. Didn't they
Speaker 1: just hire this guy? I swear to god, he's been
Speaker 1: there only two years, hasn't he didn't Scott Brooks just
Speaker 1: come to my team two years ago when they hired
Speaker 1: Chauncey Billups. I think I think that's what happened. I'd
Speaker 1: love to say that this shocks me, but I'd be lying.
Speaker 1: Any team where Marvin Bagley is your marquee player and
Speaker 1: he's averaging eighteen points per game for the Wizards after
Speaker 1: getting traded from the worst team in the league that
Speaker 1: was five for thirty nine, five and thirty nine, who
Speaker 1: is getting dnps? You're in serious trouble if that's your guy.
Speaker 1: What does it mean. They don't want to be the
Speaker 1: worst team in the league. The problem is their roster
Speaker 1: probably is the worst in the league. They only have
Speaker 1: a two game lead over the Pistons in the NBA's
Speaker 1: Slugo Award. I am betting that the Wizards do finish
Speaker 1: with the worst record overall. I think they win ten
Speaker 1: games again. Moving on, uh more coaching news. So the
Speaker 1: Bucks we talked about this last episode. They fired Adrian Griffin.
Speaker 1: It did happen what we suspected might happen what was
Speaker 1: being rumored. They have tendered an offer too, guys, Glenn
Speaker 1: Dirty mac Rivers aka the doctor with no MD, no MD, folks,
Speaker 1: he gets another ridiculous shot at mediocrity to the tune
Speaker 1: of forty million dollars. How can I get that job?
Speaker 1: How can we as people believe in the system when
Speaker 1: we all know Doc Rivers fucking sucks and he gets
Speaker 1: three and a half years for forty million dollars. That
Speaker 1: is what in the Monty Williams is going on over here.
Speaker 1: I will have the rest of the season to bash
Speaker 1: this move, but it's it's gross. Not just because they
Speaker 1: hired a guy who has booted four three one leads
Speaker 1: in the playoffs. I think that's the most in history.
Speaker 1: As you can imagine that. The online response from Bucks
Speaker 1: fans not stoked. I echo those comments because not just
Speaker 1: that he's bad, but like, why why'd you do it?
Speaker 1: Why'd you pay him long term? Why not let your
Speaker 1: interim head coach, Joe Prunty, who's already been an interim
Speaker 1: head coach before, why not let him take this thing?
Speaker 1: See how it goes until the offseason when you can
Speaker 1: figure out a way to try to entice Kenny Atkinson
Speaker 1: or someone else, someone better. Unless the ownership group is
Speaker 1: okay having four coaches under contract at the same time,
Speaker 1: this thing could be a disaster. A disaster. I think
Speaker 1: the reason why is fear right, it doesn't make sense.
Speaker 1: I think it's Yannis, really. I think Yannis all of
Speaker 1: his comments in the media about really Lebron asked, we
Speaker 1: need a champion, we need a championship. I think it's
Speaker 1: that that made them make this move. They're afraid. And
Speaker 1: by the way, there are numerous think pieces about how
Speaker 1: Griffin got shitcanned midway through the season. They are all
Speaker 1: eye opening, they are all you know, illuminating. Chief amongst
Speaker 1: his crimes was the fact that defensively, he put it
Speaker 1: together a scheme where he took brook Lopez from being
Speaker 1: a rim protector where he almost won Defensive Player of
Speaker 1: the Year at that to blitzing ball handlers when I
Speaker 1: think he's had multiple back surgeries so he's not that mobile.
Speaker 1: Guys like you can't have him blitz the ball handler
Speaker 1: and the pick and roll situations. ESPN reported it was
Speaker 1: baffling to those inside the locker room who had been
Speaker 1: accustomed to top ten defenses under Budenholzer. Yeah, not to mention,
Speaker 1: you got Dame Lillard there, so the defense is already
Speaker 1: gonna take a step back no matter what you do.
Speaker 1: Tons of people, including myself, are calling Doc a snake,
Speaker 1: snake snake, or a dirty back. He was hired. If
Speaker 1: you don't know the story, here's what it is.
Speaker 4: He was.
Speaker 1: Doc was hired midway through the season, early December as
Speaker 1: a private consultant for the Bucks. Hey just help this
Speaker 1: young rookie coach. Come along, teach him your ways, help
Speaker 1: develop him. I didn't even know that until Adrian Griffin
Speaker 1: was already fired at the behest of the Bucks. And
Speaker 1: then what does he do. He goes behind Adrian Griffin's
Speaker 1: back uses his position with ESPN as a media member,
Speaker 1: goes on the ringer, goes on all these other places
Speaker 1: and just bust tosses Adriene Griffin along the way, tries
Speaker 1: to be slick sneak, dissing him, and behind the scenes
Speaker 1: lobbying for Adrienne Griffin's job. Get them fired. Already had
Speaker 1: secured his own gig. His best advice for Griffin hire
Speaker 1: an Australian assistant with no head coaching experience as his
Speaker 1: quote veteran presence on the bench. Folks, this has real
Speaker 1: dirty mac vibes, like things aren't going well with your girl.
Speaker 1: Let me smooth things over for y'all. I'll figure it out.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that guy, he's just not gonna be the
Speaker 1: one for you. You need somebody with more championship caliber experience.
Speaker 1: That's the only way you manage these egos Jannis and
Speaker 1: Dame and Brook Lopez, and list goes on and on.
Speaker 1: You need somebody who understands Guys like Kevin Garnett, Ray
Speaker 1: Allen Paul. Do you anybody like that? Give you a referral?
Speaker 1: I could give you a referral to somebody. The optics
Speaker 1: are obviously hilarious and awful. He's he is the all
Speaker 1: time bad guy. This has been quite illuminating and did
Speaker 1: a lot. I'm sure to put the nail in the
Speaker 1: coffin to his reputation. He's sixty two years old. This
Speaker 1: might be his last crack at a head coaching job.
Speaker 1: He's the little finger. And when this inevitably does not work,
Speaker 1: we are going to hear all about how it went down.
Speaker 1: The question is how long it goes down? How long
Speaker 1: until it happens? The Bucks are now storyline number one
Speaker 1: to watch for the rest of the year. Another question
Speaker 1: that I have though, and we'll answer this more in
Speaker 1: detail maybe next week, is like, why why do these
Speaker 1: head coaches we know aren't good? Why do they continue
Speaker 1: to get like very expensive jobs? Why why do we
Speaker 1: want these retriits when we know they're not good. At
Speaker 1: least we know us Rivers is probably gonna come back
Speaker 1: to the league. At least we know that. In other news,
Speaker 1: newest Miami Heat culture spokesperson aka Terry Rozier, made his
Speaker 1: debut on Wednesday night, finished nine to four and five.
Speaker 1: Not a great step line. Not gonna lie on three
Speaker 1: for eleven from the field as the Heat dropped. They're
Speaker 1: fourth straight to the Memphis Grizzlies. They have been held
Speaker 1: under one hundred points for the sixth time in their
Speaker 1: last ten games. What's happening with Miami A couple of things.
Speaker 1: First of all, let's stop deep throating Heimiakus. Could we
Speaker 1: just maybe cut that out. He's very good, But here's
Speaker 1: the problem. He and Jimmy Butler do all a lot
Speaker 1: of the same things, and as far as I know,
Speaker 1: this is still Jimmy Butler's team, and since he's a rookie,
Speaker 1: he's probably gonna have to defer to Jimmy, which means
Speaker 1: on offense, he's usually in the corner of the three
Speaker 1: and not a high volume three point shooter, so he's
Speaker 1: gonna get a lot of opportunities to come. We'll call
Speaker 1: it organically. You know, you don't really know when going
Speaker 1: to be used, how you're going to be used, because
Speaker 1: most of his valuable skills are being minimized because unless
Speaker 1: he comes off the bench when Jimmy sits second, Jimmy
Speaker 1: is a problem. Let's be real. He's come back from
Speaker 1: injury and has maybe because of injuries, most likely not
Speaker 1: been playing his normal game, mostly low post block shooting
Speaker 1: four to six footers. Pretty inefficient stats. Probably not exactly
Speaker 1: where you want your guy to be shooting little middies.
Speaker 1: He's shot chart from the last ten games he's played
Speaker 1: versus the playoffs wildly different. He's got almost no offense
Speaker 1: from the right side of the court. Not sure why,
Speaker 1: but that's something to monitor. The heater tumbling down the
Speaker 1: standings fast. They are a game out of ninth. They
Speaker 1: have to fix things. Losing to the Memphis Grizzlies is
Speaker 1: just unacceptable. Bill Simmons, on the other hand, has taken
Speaker 1: the heat at thirteen to one to win the East,
Speaker 1: so that tells you everything you need to know. Finally,
Speaker 1: we end with some more bullshit from the refs. Not
Speaker 1: going to get into how the Portland Trailblazers were screwed
Speaker 1: out of a win against the Oklahoma City Thunder, which
Speaker 1: might have been our best win of the year by
Speaker 1: not acknowledging a timeout by Chauncey Billips in the last
Speaker 1: seconds of a tie game and then teeing him up
Speaker 1: when he pointed it out by saying that he physically
Speaker 1: assaulted a rep. But I won't get into any of that.
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about the Wolves versus the Charlotte Hornets,
Speaker 1: the game where Karl Anthony Towns had mostly the most
Speaker 1: embarrassing performance that he's ever had, and he put up
Speaker 1: sixty two. He cost the Wolves the game. Well, not
Speaker 1: just him, the refs apparently did some heavy lifting as well.
Speaker 1: In the latest NBA Last two Minute Report, the NBA
Speaker 1: acknowledged that there were some miscalls. How many miscalls were there? Ten? Ten?
Speaker 1: Ten incorrect calls in the last two minutes and seven
Speaker 1: seconds of this game. Seven of those calls missed ones
Speaker 1: benefited the Hornets. That included two bad note calls on
Speaker 1: the same play which would have resulted into two Karl
Speaker 1: Anthony Towns free throws with five point four and four
Speaker 1: point seconds left in the game, and in an incorrect
Speaker 1: offensive foul called on Rudy got Gobert with one point
Speaker 1: four seconds left in the game. Three wrong calls in
Speaker 1: the final five seconds of the game, all that negatively
Speaker 1: impacted the Wolves. Sounds about Minnesota. What the fuck? Though? Seriously,
Speaker 1: did they get any calls right? If you get ten
Speaker 1: calls wrong in a month, let alone the last two
Speaker 1: minutes of the game, that is absolutely hysterical. How can
Speaker 1: you be this job. If I did ten wrong things
Speaker 1: at my job in two minutes, either be a talking to.
Speaker 1: I'd probably have to sign some things. I'd have to
Speaker 1: vow some things. It wouldn't be good. I have no
Speaker 1: idea how this is getting out of hand, and I'm
Speaker 1: gonna tell you, Adam Silver, you gotta get this shit
Speaker 1: under control because the refs are in danger of torpedoing
Speaker 1: a golden season, not just for the Wolves, but for
Speaker 1: the entire league. All right, Up next, we have a
Speaker 1: special guest interview with NBA TVs Chris Miles. Chris joined
Speaker 1: me and my co host Nick Ashow and Ryan Horvat
Speaker 1: on my other show at MGM Tonight, which airs seven
Speaker 1: to eleven Eastern Monday through Friday. Fascinating conversation with Chris.
Speaker 1: We get into all the news around the NBA. He
Speaker 1: is super insightful, funny and entertaining. So take a listen.
Speaker 5: Trista said this earlier and it was just music to
Speaker 5: my ears, and I'm sure it'd be music to your
Speaker 5: ears too. She looks at me, she just goes, this
Speaker 5: Knicks team's just really good. It's been a long time
Speaker 5: since we got to hear that and actually feel confident
Speaker 5: in what the future is for this organization.
Speaker 6: You know, it's all coming together because this time last
Speaker 6: night I was interview with Bill Bradley's Senator Bill Bradley,
Speaker 6: you know, of those championship Nicks, and it just feels
Speaker 6: like something special in the air. I mean, Carmelo Anthony
Speaker 6: is now one of us in broadcasting essentially doing all
Speaker 6: these podcasts.
Speaker 7: I'm like, yeah, it's all coming together. Now is the
Speaker 7: time for Nicks tape?
Speaker 6: Baby, looks like we're gonna be what eleven and two
Speaker 6: since the o Giannaobi trade.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that og Nanobi trade was huge. And you're lucky
Speaker 1: that Indiana didn't want to give up Ben Mathrin because
Speaker 1: they could have ended up with Pascal Siakam and ogn Andobe.
Speaker 1: Oh how much do you think that this Pascal trade
Speaker 1: helps them?
Speaker 6: Well, it's really interesting because the day of the trade,
Speaker 6: I was like, all right, let me look inside the
Speaker 6: numbers in nerd Alert, and I was like, hold on,
Speaker 6: the Toronto Raptors, who don't have a great offense, had
Speaker 6: more fast break points per game than the Indiana Pacers,
Speaker 6: who we know got up and down the court and
Speaker 6: played zero defense. And it was because of Pascal Siakam,
Speaker 6: He and Scottie Barnes were just running up and down
Speaker 6: the floor. The thing is, that's the only way the
Speaker 6: Raptors were able to score, right, So it's like they'd
Speaker 6: have fast break points and then putrid outside of that.
Speaker 6: So I can't wait to see him and Tyrese Hallibird
Speaker 6: on the floor for an extended period of time and
Speaker 6: see how they play together. I think Pascal Siakam's passing
Speaker 6: skills and ability to score quickly and not hold on
Speaker 6: to the ball is going to be fascinating.
Speaker 7: With the Pacers, were.
Speaker 8: You at with Philadelphia seventy six ers? They're twenty nine
Speaker 8: and thirteen? I think obviously like Nick Nurse doing a
Speaker 8: pretty solid job. Embiid, the MVP favorite, just dropped seventy
Speaker 8: the other night. Yeah, Milwaukee and Boston in front of
Speaker 8: them in the East, But you know, I like Boston.
Speaker 8: Milwaukee doesn't play a whole lot of defense. They probably
Speaker 8: figure that thing out. But then again, they have Doc
Speaker 8: Rivers as their head coach. Now, where are you at
Speaker 8: with the Philly this stage of the season right now?
Speaker 6: I mean I look at Philly as are you gonna
Speaker 6: get out of the second round? Like do I have
Speaker 6: to pay attention to you until Joel Embiid plays three
Speaker 6: full months without needing a week off. Yeah right, because
Speaker 6: people have been begging in bead drum for four years
Speaker 6: and I'm like, yeah, I know what he can do
Speaker 6: on Wednesday night in January. But then you get to
Speaker 6: the playoffs and it's like the Raptors didn't have a
Speaker 6: center and forced them into you know, elimination, push them
Speaker 6: to the brink. Then they get, you know, so close
Speaker 6: to the conference finals, and Jason Tatum said, no, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 6: I'm him, You're not. I just don't trust in. Beid's
Speaker 6: body is really the thing.
Speaker 7: Max.
Speaker 6: He's amazing. We had him in studio about two weeks ago.
Speaker 6: Love his energy, love love how much he loves basketball.
Speaker 6: I just don't believe Joel and b can can you know,
Speaker 6: finish the postseason healthy? This team can't win at all
Speaker 6: unless he's you know, able to play at that level
Speaker 6: come June when.
Speaker 7: We look at the Sixers.
Speaker 5: Now we've got a guy in Joel Embiid that just
Speaker 5: continues to get better. Man, And I like, right, we
Speaker 5: know the second round, we know the MVP is a
Speaker 5: regular season award. I was looking at bet MGM. They've
Speaker 5: got the MVP market down right now. But I mean,
Speaker 5: the dude just put.
Speaker 7: Up seventy the other night.
Speaker 5: The big man in the NBA, how like comparing it
Speaker 5: to what we had, like, let's say in the nineties,
Speaker 5: right these big men we have today, could you ever
Speaker 5: in your wildest dreams have imagined we'd see one guy
Speaker 5: with a dad bod be a multiple time MVP two
Speaker 5: other guys that looked like they were supposed to be
Speaker 5: six five stretched out to you know, seven foot four
Speaker 5: in Chet and Wemby, and like, it's just incredible to
Speaker 5: me the evolution that we've had of the big man
Speaker 5: from before to now, and we're winning v they're winning
Speaker 5: MVPs again. It really feels like the big man in
Speaker 5: the NBA. Chris is fully back.
Speaker 7: You're like going justin Timberlake. Oh, but it's so different.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 7: Here's the thing.
Speaker 6: They sent a little boy to do a man's job
Speaker 6: with victim woman y'ama trying to guard Joel Embiid. I'm like,
Speaker 6: this is this is the problem with the league right now.
Speaker 6: We've had a lot of talented bigs right not get
Speaker 6: the uh time and attention, and you know, opportunity to develop,
Speaker 6: Like James Wiseman can play basketball, but teams are like, oh,
Speaker 6: he can't defend the pick and roll, and they I'm like,
Speaker 6: have you I've seen James Wiseman is a ginormous human
Speaker 6: being that can get up and down the floor. And
Speaker 6: you know what, the Spurs could have just used him
Speaker 6: for ten minutes to defend Jewel Embiid just.
Speaker 7: To slow him down.
Speaker 6: I mean like when I look at winning bead did
Speaker 6: I thought it was impressive. But it's also like when
Speaker 6: we do the all Time Greats, I doc Wilt Chamberlain because.
Speaker 7: I'm like, that's what it like.
Speaker 6: When wil Chamberlain was doing it, it was like, this
Speaker 6: dude is too little to be on him. It is
Speaker 6: too easy as opposed to like you're pointing out, man
Speaker 6: Shack was dominating guys of his elk. So I think
Speaker 6: I take nothing away from Joelmbiid and how amazing he looks,
Speaker 6: and he's doing exactly what he needs to do.
Speaker 7: But teams need to wake up.
Speaker 4: Man.
Speaker 6: They're bigs out here that can defend that are, you know,
Speaker 6: working on their games throughout the years, but they're going
Speaker 6: with like the super slim or you know, stretch four,
Speaker 6: stretch five, instead of guys who can even try to
Speaker 6: defend jol of.
Speaker 8: Me, Chris, when you look at the West, you got
Speaker 8: Oklahoma City and Minnesota both thirty one and thirteen, the
Speaker 8: top two seeds in the West. Who do you trust
Speaker 8: more down the stretch when we get to the postseason,
Speaker 8: you know who do you think what they're doing is
Speaker 8: more sustainable for the Thunder of.
Speaker 6: The Wolves, Man, that's a great question, and I'm starting to.
Speaker 7: Lean towards the Timberwolves for this reason.
Speaker 6: What they're going through right now, right like the Thunder
Speaker 6: to me are doing everything right.
Speaker 7: They're kind of hitting their ceiling.
Speaker 6: This is who they are, and in two years, three
Speaker 6: years from now, they're going to take another leap with
Speaker 6: Chet when he gets a little bit better with the Timberwolves.
Speaker 7: Chris Finch.
Speaker 6: The other night they lost against the Hornets because Kat
Speaker 6: was searching for shots after he had sixty two, was
Speaker 6: just trying to get to seventy to catch em bead.
Speaker 6: The coach was like, Hey, this is not good. And
Speaker 6: then they came out beat the Wizards the next time out,
Speaker 6: and you were like, okay, ant Man was aggressive. They
Speaker 6: were back into their Roles, and I just think they're
Speaker 6: at a stage where they've been disappointed for two years
Speaker 6: and they're ready right where it's like, okay, see, it's
Speaker 6: like how's money, Let's go out here and have fun
Speaker 6: and do our thing. I think there's a little bit
Speaker 6: more growth left within them, even though the thunder Man,
Speaker 6: like you said, sitting here on top of the West
Speaker 6: with the advantage over the Timberwolves and had to a matchups.
Speaker 6: I just think when it comes postseason, Tom, it's been
Speaker 6: two years of the Wolves kind of being let down.
Speaker 5: Talking to Chris Miles, BEDMGM tonight, what teams do you
Speaker 5: think will be the most active at the deadline, whether
Speaker 5: it's buying or selling.
Speaker 6: I mean, I think we've kind of seen it already,
Speaker 6: right with the Indiana Pacers. But man, I'm gonna tell
Speaker 6: you something that struck me earlier today Ben Simmons, Like
Speaker 6: I'm looking at him, like hold on, they're trying to
Speaker 6: get this man back on the court, to move him
Speaker 6: one more time. But teams I had an eye out on, man,
Speaker 6: the Pacers and the Heat kind of already made their moves.
Speaker 6: I thought maybe another one, a team that might be
Speaker 6: flying under the radar, that I think needs to make
Speaker 6: a move.
Speaker 7: The Dallas Mavericks.
Speaker 6: I think that was evident in that loss to the
Speaker 6: Phoenix Suns, Like they came out Kyrie wasn't on the floor.
Speaker 6: They got to get some defensive identity and some toughness
Speaker 6: back that they lost when they traded for Kyrie.
Speaker 7: And they look good this year.
Speaker 6: But whether it's Bruce Brown, who's gonna be available, right,
Speaker 6: Daniel Gafford and DC, like they need a guy like that,
Speaker 6: not necessarily like a game changer, Oh he's no O Giannanobi,
Speaker 6: but another big or wing that can defend someone whose
Speaker 6: main job is to do the dirty work.
Speaker 1: What about the Lakers. I know that they're in the mix,
Speaker 1: and there's a lot of trade rumors about maybe them
Speaker 1: going after de Jontay Murray. I don't know how that works.
Speaker 1: Like from a basketball perspective, how do you think that
Speaker 1: fit is?
Speaker 7: I think there are a lot better fits for Dejonte.
Speaker 6: I mean, first of all, living here in Atlanta, you know,
Speaker 6: being around him. He's close with Jamal Crawford, who you know,
Speaker 6: obviously I work with and that sort of thing. And
Speaker 6: I'm like, this, dude, if you want to see Dejontay Murray.
Speaker 6: You go to high school basketball game on his off
Speaker 6: nights and that's where he is, so like, you're not
Speaker 6: going to catch him in the club, You're not gonna
Speaker 6: catch him at a bar and then do all that stuff.
Speaker 6: He's a basketball guy, and I think he needs a
Speaker 6: different opportunity, right like I think he's shown that in Atlanta,
Speaker 6: having some class and some dignity.
Speaker 7: But again I.
Speaker 6: Said the team a little bit earlier, but the Brooklyn Nets,
Speaker 6: I really like that fit for the Jonte Murray. They're
Speaker 6: kind of in need of a franchise guy, and I
Speaker 6: think he could be that in Brooklyn, and I think
Speaker 6: he'd be loved if he was it all.
Speaker 5: I still got a couple of minutes, Chris. When we
Speaker 5: look at the Sons now they've won seven straight. We
Speaker 5: know the talent that's certainly there. It's a big three.
Speaker 5: We barely saw even Durant and Booker play together last year.
Speaker 5: Now you're adding Bradley Beild to the mix and he
Speaker 5: misses the beginning of the year. They have talent, but
Speaker 5: we also know really all three of those guys are
Speaker 5: an injury risk, especially Beale. We saw that plenty when
Speaker 5: he was in Washington. Is this a matter now of
Speaker 5: just everybody staying healthy and the Sons team can continue
Speaker 5: to climb in the West.
Speaker 6: What's crazy is and if you're being objective and you
Speaker 6: watch the Phoenix Suns.
Speaker 7: Is the third person Bradley Beal or is it Grayson Allen?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 6: Like it sounds silly, but this new shoot like fifty
Speaker 6: from three point range?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 6: He was he was a killed with the Bucks and
Speaker 6: he's given you thirty three minutes a game everybody in
Speaker 6: and out the lineup, and this dude is like the glue.
Speaker 6: I keep going, man, why haven't the sun's faltered? When
Speaker 6: when books out? When Beal's And I'm like, this guy
Speaker 6: has been incredible. So I know everyone likes to go
Speaker 6: with the three all Stars. I'm not calling them a
Speaker 6: big three. I'm calling them a big two, right and
Speaker 6: in a in an all star caliber play, that's not
Speaker 6: a that's a different thing that we should reserve for
Speaker 6: guys on that level, you know, like all NBA perennial guys.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 7: So, and that's no disrespect to Bradley Beal. I just
Speaker 7: don't put him in that same category.
Speaker 6: But I think if Beal is gonna do what he's
Speaker 6: what he's done the past three weeks. Now, then yeah,
Speaker 6: they can contend for a title. They're another team though.
Speaker 6: Now I just feel like you said too top heavy, right,
Speaker 6: They got like three guys they give me the embide concern, Like,
Speaker 6: is Devin Booker's Hammy gonna give out? Is Katie too
Speaker 6: old when it comes to the playoffs and this britt
Speaker 6: Beal gonna just like, oh, I haven't played this much
Speaker 6: in years, and just like give in two.
Speaker 7: I don't know. It's like I keep thinking one of
Speaker 7: those guys won't be you know, good for the conference.
Speaker 5: I know the Beal thing. Especially, we're like again, years
Speaker 5: and years and years we saw like, oh, Beal's gonna
Speaker 5: miss another month and it's just like, okay, here you go.
Speaker 5: So I would love to see this team actually just
Speaker 5: play together for an entire season, just to see what
Speaker 5: it would look like. But you're right, Grayson Allen over
Speaker 5: on threes and points, man, those props have been fantastic
Speaker 5: this year. Chris Miles, NBA TV. Great to see again, buddy,
Speaker 5: Thanks Chris.
Speaker 7: Thanks Hollywood hate chick. He's gonna do?
