1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:04,360
Speaker 1: Everyone stopped the count. You know exactly what I'm talking about.

2
00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:05,800
Speaker 1: Stop the count.

3
00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 2: Stop.

4
00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:14,400
Speaker 1: It cost all Cavalier and thunder fans. Cavaliers, I don't

5
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:18,840
Speaker 1: mean Cavalier thunder fans, but Cleveland Cavaliers and Oklahoma City

6
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:22,000
Speaker 1: thunder fans everywhere. Those teams are made the only undefeated

7
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 1: squads at the time of this recording. Meanwhile, the Celtics

8
00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:28,960
Speaker 1: are just one game off their base and still seem

9
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:32,159
Speaker 1: even hungrier than they were last season. And we'll get

10
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:35,040
Speaker 1: into that with one of our favorite comedians, Josh Gondleman,

11
00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:38,760
Speaker 1: on today's episode. I'm Miles Greg and I'm Jack O'Brien

12
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:44,159
Speaker 1: and this is Miles of stick boost.

13
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:55,200
Speaker 3: Dog. Sorry, got it, looka do hit okay and be

14
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 3: driving spinning.

15
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 4: Number that's been secure the Celtics or NBA champions over

16
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 4: the double team.

17
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 1: Yes, tell no short time. Yes, Josh Gondleman, Oh Man,

18
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 1: my my favorite Boston fan. I gotta say, you're you're,

19
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:23,400
Speaker 1: You're there.

20
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 2: Huge for me.

21
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: We had to overlap, obviously with the Yankees Dodgers World Series.

22
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 1: Our our ben diagram overlapped for that moment, and it

23
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 1: was a fantastic.

24
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 3: One glorious moment. Yeah, I was.

25
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 5: I watched every game of the World Series to rout

26
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,279
Speaker 5: against the Yankees and when they lost, and I felt,

27
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 5: I would say, roughly as much joy as I felt

28
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 5: when the Red Sox won the World Series against the

29
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 5: Dodgers in twenty eighteen. I was like, oh, I should

30
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,920
Speaker 5: be in therapy. This, this is not spent well for

31
00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 5: my state of mind.

32
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 3: That spite feels as good to me as joy.

33
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, well that's also being a Laker fan baby.

34
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 3: And so true for me. With the Celtics myself. Oh god,

35
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:16,840
Speaker 3: I understand that felt good, like it?

36
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,800
Speaker 1: But yeah, just looking around the league, three teams currently

37
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 1: have both top five offenses and defenses. Caps, Warriors, Celtics honestly,

38
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 1: really must be nice. I'm taking them out, wool, how'd

39
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 1: you do that? The Celtics, though, Josh, you're here, we

40
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 1: have to talk about the Celtics because they're so good. Again.

41
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 1: It's freaking me out, and I don't like it.

42
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 3: I like it. Yeah, now, this is interesting, Miles. I

43
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 3: told you that he would bring something different, because so

44
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 3: we don't. We don't like it. But you you're happy

45
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 3: with how they're playing. Interesting?

46
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 2: Happy. I'm happy with how they're playing.

47
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 1: I have.

48
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,399
Speaker 2: That's all been a good time watching them.

49
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 5: I loved watching them just absolutely uh eradicate the knicks

50
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 5: from the building and Game one, Yeah, and.

51
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:09,079
Speaker 1: That was dark. That was that was I was excited

52
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 1: for that game and I was like, whoa, oh no,

53
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 1: let's check back a little bit, let's figure out Let's

54
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:15,799
Speaker 1: let them figure out cat, and then let's come back,

55
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:16,359
Speaker 1: let's revisit.

56
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 5: I like, I'm I hope they do because I want

57
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 5: it's fun. More teams are good and the games are competitive,

58
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:27,560
Speaker 5: but one night one it's fun to be like, oh

59
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 5: you thought this is this is your squad that you

60
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 5: brought to right, Okay, see see you in game eighty.

61
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 1: Three, right right? Oh man? Also, Josh, I love you go.

62
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 1: I like it when like other teams are like good

63
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 1: enough to like compete with.

64
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 2: It's like the fun.

65
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 5: Everybody just complained that they didn't they didn't beat anyone

66
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,880
Speaker 5: in their path to the title in the playoffs last year.

67
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 3: And that it was so satisfying that we all decided

68
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 3: to not make our teams very good this year, so

69
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 3: you continue not to have anybody.

70
00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 1: Look at everyone's a mess.

71
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 3: Everybody's just gonna play dead. Oh you're so impressive. I

72
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 3: barely even tried. Yeah, I'm starting to resent Shams because

73
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 3: now he's like the source of all breaking news and

74
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 3: all breaking news. So far this NBA season has been

75
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 3: like good for the Celtics and bad for my teams

76
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 3: and everything else. Yeah yeah, uh so ye bring back

77
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:33,839
Speaker 3: Woj is what I say. It's it's this Shams guy.

78
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 3: Bring back all right? Yeah, third, best point differential, third

79
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 3: and defensive efficiency blah blah blah. Tatum looks hungry. He

80
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:51,840
Speaker 3: looks better this year. The whole team looks hungry, which

81
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:53,520
Speaker 3: is not what you expect from a team coming out

82
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:57,920
Speaker 3: after championship. I will say there there was a lot

83
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 3: made about Tatum's shot having a hitch in it, both

84
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:08,640
Speaker 3: in the playoffs when they like didn't play anybody, literally anybody,

85
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:12,719
Speaker 3: just like, uh, you know, it was like scrimmage games.

86
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 2: That the MAVs didn't really present a challenge.

87
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 5: In the finals, the West could have said the team

88
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 5: that would have people are like, that's the bad finals,

89
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:29,280
Speaker 5: and I was like, well, I'm sorry to hijack right away.

90
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:41,359
Speaker 5: No people were, but people going America had the choice.

91
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:45,160
Speaker 5: They could have chosen to get behind the Boston Celtics,

92
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 5: a generally likable team with a lot of wonderful, complimentary

93
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 5: players and stars who aren't people aren't overexposed to necessarily.

94
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,360
Speaker 5: Yet I get that Jason Tatum, not the most charismatic guy,

95
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:02,599
Speaker 5: didn't play the best series, but instead, people America chose

96
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:06,039
Speaker 5: to rally behind Luka Doncic, who's I think still playing

97
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,720
Speaker 5: him himself into shape from his rookie season. Wow, and

98
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:14,039
Speaker 5: wow Kyrie Irving who was suspended one season before the

99
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 5: choice was there. You all, America all could have enjoyed

100
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:21,359
Speaker 5: that NBA Finals outside of the greater Dallas area, but

101
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:24,040
Speaker 5: they chose not to. And I don't think that's Boston's fault.

102
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:25,159
Speaker 5: I think that's America's fault.

103
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 3: So we say stuff like that, just like cheerfully disassembling

104
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 3: my entire body and spirit as an NBA fan, and

105
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,960
Speaker 3: in such like a friendly way you give, like real

106
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 3: Hans landa from inglorious bastards energy, like just real christof vaults,

107
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:48,159
Speaker 3: like America taking your hat off. I just don't know why.

108
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:54,920
Speaker 3: Look Tatum looks good, However, take a little deeper look

109
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 3: into the numbers. Thirty five point five from three below

110
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:03,919
Speaker 3: his average free throws below his usual I'm just saying,

111
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 3: and this is all that I like, this is my copium.

112
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,559
Speaker 3: I'm just saying, maybe his shot isn't totally fixed. Uh.

113
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 3: And when a shot has a hitch, like there has

114
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 3: some dynamics, a myth, it tends to show up at

115
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 3: the worst times, Like it's just like this little, you know,

116
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 3: piece of sand. You know, it's like this little irritant

117
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:28,120
Speaker 3: that's in there that can come back at the worst

118
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 3: of times. I'm just saying, I have been a fan

119
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 3: of a Ben Simmons basketball team before, and I just

120
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:37,800
Speaker 3: want to I want you to know you can always

121
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 3: come to me for sympathy if this thing goes awry

122
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 3: on you, because you know, a shot with a little

123
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 3: hitch that's like, I don't know, there's like a mental

124
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 3: component to it. Also, you know, maybe he caught something

125
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 3: from the Nick's new guy, Miles Bridges. I don't know,

126
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 3: Mical Bridges, Michal Bridges, mcal Bridges. Yes, yeah, yeah, very

127
00:07:58,200 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 3: important distinction.

128
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 5: If you're if you're looking at Jason Tatum's little hitch

129
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 5: in his jump shot possibly emerging, and you're seeing Ben

130
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 5: simmons jump shot, you should have your driver's license taken away.

131
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:11,560
Speaker 3: I should should be here's a third person who's told

132
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,640
Speaker 3: me that this afternoon, But that has more to do

133
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 3: with hell, I'm dealing with waiting for the election results. Yeah,

134
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 3: all right, I tried, you know, I'm just also trying

135
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 3: to think that, like Peyton Pritchard is playing really well.

136
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:30,720
Speaker 1: Like I saw some set, thirty two threes made after

137
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 1: eight games is the joint highest for a non starter

138
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 1: in like in league history. I'm also tired of seeing

139
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 1: like almost every game there's some stat where it's like

140
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:42,200
Speaker 1: the Celtics almost broke the record for most three pointers

141
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:45,079
Speaker 1: either made or attempted or whatever, and you're like, oh god,

142
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:45,719
Speaker 1: that was.

143
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 5: So disrespectful in game one two to tie the record.

144
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:52,719
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, and then spend eight minutes just breaking three

145
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 5: That's truly like, that's like what you'd see on the

146
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,199
Speaker 5: local news from a high school team.

147
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 1: Right right right, We're going for it. We're going for it.

148
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 1: If we get hot, it's over.

149
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, like going underhand. Just yeah, just trying.

150
00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 5: Any academy was playing against the local farm. They made

151
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 5: a team of three ghosts.

152
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 3: Anyways, all right, do you see any hope for the

153
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,679
Speaker 3: rest of the league is there? Or for yourself? As

154
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 3: somebody who has admitted you do want a world where

155
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 3: the Celtics can no longer be criticized for playing a

156
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 3: bunch of like sleepwalking their way to the finals.

157
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:37,680
Speaker 2: Essentially, Cleveland's playing great. Obviously, it is playing great, which

158
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 2: is fine.

159
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 5: I like, and I'm glad that they figured it out,

160
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,679
Speaker 5: Like it's fun when teams kind of have different constructions

161
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 5: and play in different ways. And they figured out like

162
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 5: two lead guards, two big guys, and it turns out

163
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 5: like the coaching change. Kenny Atkinson was like, what if

164
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 5: two guys didn't just stand in the same place.

165
00:09:56,320 --> 00:10:00,840
Speaker 6: And like, oh yeah, wait what We're to dig this

166
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 6: guy up?

167
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,200
Speaker 5: And then I think, I mean, I think the Knicks

168
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:06,959
Speaker 5: are going to be a fun team when they get

169
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 5: it all settled. And I think, uh, there's seventy stickers.

170
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 5: When Joel Embiid is back, he'll be back and he'll

171
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 5: play great. And it's always scary when he's playing great,

172
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 5: and it's like it truly is. And I don't mean that.

173
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 5: I know this is going to sound condescending, and I

174
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 5: mean it only forty nine percent condescending, Like I am

175
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,560
Speaker 5: hoping for like the Joe l Embiid fully healthy in

176
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 5: the playoffs. I would like the Celtics you defeat him.

177
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 5: But I think it is like something that NBA fans

178
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:36,120
Speaker 5: deserve and I hope human body deserves it. Do not

179
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:37,080
Speaker 5: feel that pain.

180
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 3: That's such a weird. So he would be healthy in

181
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 3: the play yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, that way he would

182
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 3: be playing well, like not just during the regular season,

183
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 3: but also like when that's so interesting.

184
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:52,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's good to be heard.

185
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's interesting.

186
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 1: Not one face fracture or nothing.

187
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:56,360
Speaker 2: Nothing.

188
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, wait, but like, what what's going to happen when

189
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 3: when he randomly gets a broken face like he had

190
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 3: multiple times when people people are like you like always

191
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 3: falls apart. Like two of those times have been freak

192
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 3: face breakages. Like it's not a thing that I blame

193
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 3: him for.

194
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:18,400
Speaker 2: So well, it's.

195
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 5: Two of the five most notable face injuries in this

196
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,720
Speaker 5: century of NBA history happened to one guy. And it's like, oow,

197
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,720
Speaker 5: his face is so far above everyone else's face.

198
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,320
Speaker 3: It's a big face though, big face. He does have

199
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 3: a massive face face, big face, all right. When this

200
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,680
Speaker 3: show first started, one of our early episodes, we spent

201
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,240
Speaker 3: the whole episode talking about the time that Ja Morant

202
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 3: jumped up and caught Avery Bradley's layup with two hands

203
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 3: and then just like kept ascending towards the rafters like

204
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 3: for another foot, like he was on some fizzy lifting

205
00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:58,280
Speaker 3: drink of some sort.

206
00:11:58,240 --> 00:11:59,840
Speaker 1: Because it wasn't his head gonna touch like the corner

207
00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:00,199
Speaker 1: of the back.

208
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, but he had to like stop his body with

209
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 3: the ball.

210
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 5: Right he pinned the ball against the backboard right with

211
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,080
Speaker 5: like he'd already caught it, and then kind of smushed

212
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 5: it against the backboard of two hands, if I'm remember here.

213
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 3: It is, so he turns it over his against Yeah,

214
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:24,720
Speaker 3: one of the coolest things I've ever seen a human

215
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:30,160
Speaker 3: body do in any sport. Incredible, incredible. Uh So he

216
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 3: just did. I think it might be my favorite thing

217
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 3: I've seen. It's a person doing a basketball court since

218
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 3: that and it was jaw again, and it was just

219
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 3: he like kind of invented a new layup that I

220
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 3: didn't know you could do, where he goes at a

221
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:51,560
Speaker 3: defender like he's going to tomahawk on them, which he

222
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 3: has done, uh, to spectacular effect multiple times, and then

223
00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 3: decides to switch direction mid air somehow. Yeah, I guess

224
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:05,200
Speaker 3: using the person's body as to like spin off of

225
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:10,160
Speaker 3: and uh even does a complete three sixty and to

226
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:13,080
Speaker 3: do the lamp it's he did it twice in a

227
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 3: single game. Yeah, and it's just unbelievable. It really is, like,

228
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 3: I don't know how he did that, Moran. That's the step.

229
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 7: Sing finish that was saucy.

230
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 8: To wash this one up the spin cycle hang finish

231
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 8: on the other side with the left that is pretty

232
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:47,680
Speaker 8: deep and look at his eyes immediately back to the

233
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 8: rim where he's at the amount of hangtime and ground

234
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 8: he covers or I should say airspace he covers. And

235
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 8: this isn't easy against Claxon, who's shying to be vertical.

236
00:13:57,960 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 3: On the play.

237
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,839
Speaker 4: Mephis controls right now, it's five on four class to

238
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 4: the last one to get up.

239
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:09,079
Speaker 2: Moran cut.

240
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 8: A human highlight reel John Moran word subscribe, what's going

241
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:16,679
Speaker 8: for the crank.

242
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:20,040
Speaker 3: And then spins hair the smooth finish.

243
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,400
Speaker 8: This is fun real look at that.

244
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's I don't know like it, it's I love

245
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 1: it because it's such a It like speaks to everything

246
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 1: about his game. The first is being like he's cocking

247
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 1: it back and you're like get ready to have just

248
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 1: have your whole life blown up and using that to

249
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 1: then be like, now let me shift to my supreme

250
00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:42,720
Speaker 1: athleticism and like agility and just turn that into a

251
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:46,560
Speaker 1: casual layup. I yeah, I don't know. I I have

252
00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:49,480
Speaker 1: dreams about jumping that high.

253
00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 5: And it's created too where it's like, oh, he's breaking

254
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 5: this out in a game. Like you said, no one's

255
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 5: ever seen, like, no one's ever heard.

256
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,120
Speaker 3: There's a name for this move, right.

257
00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:01,160
Speaker 2: It's a incredible I love it.

258
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 5: He and he's just done so many things that you're like, oh,

259
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:07,240
Speaker 5: no one else has ever done this before, and probably

260
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 5: no one will because they're like their arms and legs

261
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 5: can't manage it well.

262
00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 1: Because it's also the thing he's like, well, if I

263
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,120
Speaker 1: go up and I and I bring it all the

264
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:17,360
Speaker 1: way back, they're going to use all their time in

265
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:19,640
Speaker 1: the air to just to block the dunk. And then

266
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:22,880
Speaker 1: at a certain point, I know I can keep elevating

267
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,240
Speaker 1: and I will just use as you descend, I will

268
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 1: just turn my body now for this somewhat uncontested layup.

269
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,960
Speaker 1: It's really uh yeah, it feels like to that end,

270
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 1: like I know you said, maybe that that Avery Bradley

271
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 1: like when he caught that, but it almost reminds you

272
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 1: of like when I saw that Vince Carter dunk contest,

273
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:40,160
Speaker 1: when I was like.

274
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, what does feel a little Vince Carter dunk contestan?

275
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 1: What do you call that? A dunk fake? Not a

276
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 1: pump fake, but like it's yeah, I don't even know, yeah,

277
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 1: what you even well?

278
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 3: And I do feel like, to Josh's point about creativity,

279
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 3: I do feel like he invented that, Like I don't.

280
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:00,960
Speaker 3: I don't think he knew about that shot before he

281
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 3: did it the first time, because we'd never seen it before,

282
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 3: and then he did it again in the same game. Yeah,

283
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 3: he was just like, oh my god, I can do that.

284
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 3: That's an interesting idea. I'm going to do that again.

285
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 5: It felt like the human equivalent of like when you're

286
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 5: mashing buttons playing like a fighting video game.

287
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, Like how do I do this combo again?

288
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, oh I did it again. I didn't know.

289
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 2: I didn't know the game could achieve this.

290
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:27,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, right right.

291
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,360
Speaker 3: It also feels like if we're just like thinking about

292
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 3: artists inspiring one another. It kind of reminded me of

293
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 3: Sakwan Barkley, Uh Hurdling. That guy Hurdle.

294
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 2: Was, Yeah, there are two of the.

295
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 3: Coolest athletic feats I've ever seen in sport, done within

296
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 3: a week of each other. I don't know that they

297
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 3: were necessarily inspired, but they just reminded me of one

298
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 3: another a little bit.

299
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:57,720
Speaker 1: Yeah. Anyways, I keep watching it on loop because it's just, yeah,

300
00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 1: you're it's like it's breaking my brain because I will

301
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,000
Speaker 1: I don't would never have the ability to ever experiment

302
00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:05,359
Speaker 1: with being up in the air like that and then

303
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 1: figure something out. But just it's it is odd to

304
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:12,320
Speaker 1: begin to see things that you've truly never seen before.

305
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:15,080
Speaker 3: And even as somebody who can jump like that, like

306
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:19,000
Speaker 3: I can, like, I still find it pretty impressive. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

307
00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:19,440
Speaker 3: that's great.

308
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 2: It's kind of a game recognized game thing.

309
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I still admire the creativity.

310
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:26,320
Speaker 1: Like, wait, actually, there might be a tape of me

311
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:29,440
Speaker 1: in OH four doing that. Let me let me check

312
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:29,720
Speaker 1: back in.

313
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:31,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't know it was legal to do in

314
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:32,359
Speaker 2: a game.

315
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:36,600
Speaker 3: You guys were played by those rules.

316
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:40,400
Speaker 1: Oh so we can do dunk fakes. Well, I thought

317
00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:44,439
Speaker 1: you had called the dunk fakesies. Okay, I played by

318
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 1: the rules, folks, by the rules.

319
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,680
Speaker 3: I told you guys about the time that I checked

320
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:52,239
Speaker 3: the ball up with somebody in a pickup game and

321
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:55,239
Speaker 3: he just started running around without dribbling it. And I

322
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:59,120
Speaker 3: was like that as a travel man, and he was like, oh,

323
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 3: I didn't know y'all were play real rules, okay, And then.

324
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:05,720
Speaker 2: He was running the baseline.

325
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, like he was running the base line at the

326
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:10,920
Speaker 3: top of the key. That's all the wildest things I've

327
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,200
Speaker 3: ever seen so far.

328
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:15,680
Speaker 1: So we're doing basketball rules.

329
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:19,159
Speaker 3: Oh okay, all right, what did you think this was?

330
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:21,720
Speaker 1: We played? We played differently here.

331
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 3: In somebody should try that when they're about to jump

332
00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:29,440
Speaker 3: up against the Grizzlies, just be.

333
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,840
Speaker 1: Like, no, don'ts And it's like, I'm a rule follower,

334
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,000
Speaker 1: All okay, I guess I'll just have to give it

335
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 1: to you old school.

336
00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 5: But this kind of brings it back because he had

337
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,000
Speaker 5: been he was injured most of last year and suspended

338
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:44,720
Speaker 5: for a portion of it, and like, I think, not

339
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 5: that I forgot that he was good, but I had

340
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 5: lost track of like the joy of watching him play,

341
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:54,840
Speaker 5: like watching a Memphis game like on league pass, just

342
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:55,600
Speaker 5: to go like, what's.

343
00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:56,359
Speaker 2: He gonna do tonight?

344
00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, that's right. That is what I'm feeling right now.

345
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,959
Speaker 3: I'm so happy that he's back, and it is in

346
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 3: no way is because I'm trying to distract myself from

347
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,440
Speaker 3: what's happening with the seventy six ers. Should we take

348
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:10,359
Speaker 3: a quick break and come back and not talk about

349
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 3: the seventy six ers? Yeah, yeah, all right, we'll be

350
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:23,879
Speaker 3: right back and we're back.

351
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:25,280
Speaker 1: We're back, all right.

352
00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:28,199
Speaker 3: The Calves. I have not watched a full game, but

353
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:33,280
Speaker 3: I have seen highlights. They look really good. Yeah, number

354
00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 3: one in effective field goal percentage, fifth overall defensive efficiency,

355
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,560
Speaker 3: and it feels like that will be their strength throughout

356
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 3: the season. But I don't know. I guess number one

357
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 3: in effective field goal percentage like that, it's hard to

358
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:50,200
Speaker 3: argue with. Yeah, but an amazing coaching Johnny Mitchell.

359
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 1: And Darius Garland do it together? Can it be done?

360
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:54,280
Speaker 1: Is it a thing they should do?

361
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:57,399
Speaker 3: And yeah, I love this character.

362
00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:01,000
Speaker 9: But lay Yeah, remember was kind of like the that

363
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:02,720
Speaker 9: was sort of like the notion, you know what I mean,

364
00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 9: Like before and now that we're seeing it in full force,

365
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,199
Speaker 9: you're like, oh, yeah, all.

366
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:13,760
Speaker 5: Right, but if two guys were good at the same time,

367
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:19,760
Speaker 5: it's like it's so ridiculous like that like sports radio

368
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:23,560
Speaker 5: brained take of Like I don't know. There's just two

369
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:27,280
Speaker 5: guys that both have all the essential skills for playing

370
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:29,120
Speaker 5: basketball on the offensive side of the game.

371
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 2: How would they ever make it work?

372
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 5: Like, oh, by both being physically healthy and then both

373
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:34,679
Speaker 5: playing awesome.

374
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:38,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm going to use a metaphor that I just

375
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:41,080
Speaker 3: made up. It's like oil and water. You know, these

376
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:42,959
Speaker 3: guys just they can't mix together.

377
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 1: Also, why are you mixing oil with water for like

378
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:47,159
Speaker 1: you're eating it?

379
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:56,480
Speaker 6: Or gasoline is expensivela, Yeah, canola, some poland spring water

380
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 6: down my gasoline like orange juice to stretch it out.

381
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:05,960
Speaker 3: So just because lava lamps are expensive, very similar.

382
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:07,640
Speaker 1: Gotta think up here. You got to think up here.

383
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 2: Just a mason jar with some oil and water. That does. Yeah,

384
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:14,440
Speaker 2: that's yeah. You give it to your kid for Christmas exactly.

385
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:16,840
Speaker 3: Put at a little bit of a lamp.

386
00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:20,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, put a little tea like, yeah you got some,

387
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 1: you get some.

388
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 3: Yeah. But I don't know. So keep an eye on

389
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:26,720
Speaker 3: the Cavs. But they are currently the best, the number

390
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:27,520
Speaker 3: one team in the league.

391
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 2: Yeah.

392
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 1: Well the other thing, I mean, it felt like we're

393
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,479
Speaker 1: all pretty high on them though going into this season,

394
00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. It was just I think before.

395
00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 1: It's sort of like the question of like can they

396
00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:39,640
Speaker 1: carry this momentum into the next season, like what is what?

397
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 1: What will they continue? And you're like, oh no, no, yep, yeah,

398
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 1: that's up to I'm.

399
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,560
Speaker 3: Gonna I'm gonna do a thing that nobody does usually

400
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:50,680
Speaker 3: does on basketball podcast. I did not see this coming

401
00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:53,720
Speaker 3: at all. I thought that we're just as likely as

402
00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:55,840
Speaker 3: to be like a seven seed this year.

403
00:21:56,280 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, based on the performance it was it's feasible.

404
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:00,840
Speaker 2: You can't it's not.

405
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:04,399
Speaker 1: Your life, this this is impossible. Are they going to

406
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:05,720
Speaker 1: keep it up? Is the real thing.

407
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 5: I think that's right, And especially because this team has

408
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,120
Speaker 5: been together a couple of seasons and hadn't made it work.

409
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:14,239
Speaker 5: But then oh right, a couple of them there was

410
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:17,200
Speaker 5: like seasons lost or shaken up because of injuries last

411
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:19,960
Speaker 5: year and especially towards the end, and Garland just seemed

412
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,119
Speaker 5: like he wasn't himself. But I'm with you, Jack, I

413
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:25,120
Speaker 5: wasn't like, oh, they're a hue in but like you said,

414
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:27,119
Speaker 5: but when now that it's happening, I'm.

415
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:28,639
Speaker 2: Like, yeah, I see the vision.

416
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 5: And I get why they didn't like trade away good

417
00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 5: players because everyone was like I don't know.

418
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:39,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, right the front off, like, did you hear what

419
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:42,560
Speaker 3: Stephen I Smith just said?

420
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,640
Speaker 2: Actually he wasn't even on Mike and I heard him.

421
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:49,000
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, yeah, where is he? He's in Alaska.

422
00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:50,679
Speaker 2: I think she thought he was whispering.

423
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,840
Speaker 3: Okay, See is the other team that is undefeated as

424
00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 3: of this recording a lot of as of this recording happening.

425
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 3: We also don't know who won the election waiting to

426
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:03,560
Speaker 3: hear who won the election.

427
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:04,440
Speaker 1: Or sexiest man.

428
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, and we also don't know who's gonna win people

429
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:07,560
Speaker 3: sexiest man.

430
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 2: We do know, and I hate to bring it up

431
00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 2: on a podcast. We know sexiest podcasters.

432
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:13,000
Speaker 3: I know, I know.

433
00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:14,120
Speaker 2: Don't be upset.

434
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:17,879
Speaker 5: Yeah, I just brought up to say miscarriage of justice.

435
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:22,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, Yeah, Jesse or what's his name? The I

436
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 3: don't even the brothers.

437
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,320
Speaker 2: Oh, Travis, Travis and Jason.

438
00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 3: Travis and Jason, who together I called Jesse for no

439
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:34,479
Speaker 3: no reason, you know, Jesse Jason.

440
00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:37,640
Speaker 5: Sometimes there's two guys that you're like, you could really

441
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:38,639
Speaker 5: be one guy.

442
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah together, I feel that.

443
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:43,960
Speaker 2: Way, David Lynch and David Byrne.

444
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 5: If that's one guy that's the most brilliant genius Oh

445
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:47,119
Speaker 5: my god.

446
00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 3: Yeah what a team. Yeah, okay, see, so I didn't

447
00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:54,760
Speaker 3: realize they were doing this well and Hartenstein hadn't played yet. Yeah,

448
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 3: so three weeks following a hand fracture, Crusoe's playing about

449
00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 3: twenty minutes a night, which some people are like, I

450
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:04,080
Speaker 3: mean once they turn him all the way up, But

451
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:06,520
Speaker 3: that's like always what I expected. I expect him to

452
00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:10,800
Speaker 3: give them like twenty spectacular minutes an and yeah.

453
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,120
Speaker 1: Even if the scoring is not there on he's He's

454
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 1: a man. I love I love Crusoe, so I love

455
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:20,159
Speaker 1: seeing him thrive. So this is I'm just trying to

456
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,080
Speaker 1: find other teams I can just get behind in case

457
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,080
Speaker 1: the Lakers end up lakering it up?

458
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:27,479
Speaker 3: What is the so we we did? This is a record.

459
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:33,399
Speaker 3: We're minutes and have not mentioned the Lakers about Okay,

460
00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:35,000
Speaker 3: we're not. We're not going to talk about how you

461
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:38,440
Speaker 3: feel about the Lakers because we a great, spectacular start

462
00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:41,840
Speaker 3: and then things have kind of hit look at of

463
00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 3: rough air.

464
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:45,760
Speaker 1: I think it's one of those things where I love

465
00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:47,639
Speaker 1: talking about the Lakers when we're doing terribly, and I

466
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,080
Speaker 1: love talking about the Lakers when we're doing mediocre. But

467
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:53,000
Speaker 1: comparatively speaking, it feels like we're I've reached an absolutely

468
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,920
Speaker 1: new level, and it's the in between part where it's

469
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:58,720
Speaker 1: like normal, I'm like, I want to talk about the

470
00:24:58,720 --> 00:24:59,200
Speaker 1: good teams.

471
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:01,639
Speaker 3: I mean that was that was the time when I

472
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 3: started taking the cap seriously. So I was like Lebron

473
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:09,240
Speaker 3: coming back home right on. Yeah, it wasn't close, it

474
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:09,560
Speaker 3: was not.

475
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:11,600
Speaker 1: In fact, it was not on.

476
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:13,000
Speaker 2: It was so not on.

477
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:23,240
Speaker 3: That Also, maybe I am overrating the Lakers because it

478
00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:26,520
Speaker 3: was also I did not take the Pistons seriously when

479
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 3: they beat my seventy six ers with Embiid and Paul

480
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:34,840
Speaker 3: George both out against all odds. But I once, once

481
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 3: they beat the Lakers, I was like, man, are these

482
00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:40,360
Speaker 3: Pistons for real? But maybe there's a shared common denominator here,

483
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:42,919
Speaker 3: but I'm missing.

484
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:44,480
Speaker 2: No, they're good.

485
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:45,520
Speaker 1: They're good, they would be good.

486
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,160
Speaker 3: They're good. They're really good.

487
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:50,320
Speaker 2: They're playing through Anthony Davis.

488
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:54,919
Speaker 5: That they got to play through a guy who seems

489
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:56,959
Speaker 5: like he doesn't want that ever in his career.

490
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:00,640
Speaker 2: He's like, he's playing amazing.

491
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:04,879
Speaker 5: It's like, yeah, it's I always root for people to

492
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:06,920
Speaker 5: like realize their potential, which is like.

493
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:08,400
Speaker 2: The most Gondlement sentence.

494
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:10,200
Speaker 1: I could say a trademarket.

495
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:12,640
Speaker 5: I hate to watch somebody that is has the potential

496
00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:15,359
Speaker 5: to be great, like not get in their own way

497
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:18,400
Speaker 5: or be hurt. And so it's like cool to be like, Oh,

498
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:21,280
Speaker 5: Anthony Davis is having the season that everyone's been like,

499
00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:24,720
Speaker 5: is he having this season for like nine years?

500
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:24,119
Speaker 2: Anybody?

501
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 1: Except every time he goes down like acting like his

502
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:31,359
Speaker 1: legs are blown off, I'm like, that's the most unnerving

503
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 1: thing to watch as a fan, which is why I'm like,

504
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,800
Speaker 1: like I'll text, like even during that Pistons game, I

505
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:40,119
Speaker 1: was texting Jackie Brom like what just happened? I just

506
00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:42,280
Speaker 1: had this opportunity to turn on the TV and I'm

507
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:45,040
Speaker 1: looking at him writhing around in pain. But let's not

508
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:47,080
Speaker 1: talk about that. We have other things to.

509
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:50,879
Speaker 3: Being a fan of Joel Embiid and Anthony Davis really

510
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:57,200
Speaker 3: makes you appreciate Lebron James and you know, Jason Tatum

511
00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 3: and then people like that.

512
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:02,560
Speaker 2: Who it's the season. Seasons are so long.

513
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,919
Speaker 3: So long, it's unbelievable that they're able to stay as

514
00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:06,680
Speaker 3: healthy as they are.

515
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:09,320
Speaker 1: Oh, Josh, I forgot to ask. I mean they're playing

516
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 1: the Warriors on what as on Wednesday night? What do

517
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:15,360
Speaker 1: you think Tatum's gonna Is he going to show out

518
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 1: just for some Olympics.

519
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,200
Speaker 5: I'm a little nervous because I think he's gonna take

520
00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 5: I think he's going to take a personal record for

521
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:25,880
Speaker 5: three pointers. If I could bet over on any number,

522
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:27,520
Speaker 5: you name a digit number and.

523
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:31,399
Speaker 2: Missoula ball is out of control.

524
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:37,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's like when he's on, You're like, oh,

525
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:38,960
Speaker 1: there's no gentler shot.

526
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:42,399
Speaker 2: It's like someone's hand is underneath the ball placing it

527
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:44,720
Speaker 2: in the rim. And when he's not, just like go

528
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:48,479
Speaker 2: to the hoop right because he is.

529
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:52,520
Speaker 5: It's like, really when you watch him and he's mixing

530
00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:54,639
Speaker 5: it up and he's like, Okay, I'm gonna it'll be

531
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:59,800
Speaker 5: like a third threes or two, you know, fortes forty

532
00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:02,320
Speaker 5: percent and just like bullying people to the basket and

533
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:06,399
Speaker 5: wiggling around him. And then twenty percent mid range you're like, oh,

534
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:10,680
Speaker 5: he's he's unstoppable. And then when it's like eighty percent threes,

535
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:12,560
Speaker 5: you're like, come on, man, you're too told to do this.

536
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:20,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, we are getting word. Tatum's most attempt a

537
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:21,480
Speaker 1: three pointers eighteen.

538
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 2: I think he's going.

539
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:25,000
Speaker 3: Over pacers this year.

540
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:29,120
Speaker 5: By the way, Oh, yeah, and that was tough because

541
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:30,879
Speaker 5: he was having a tough game. Hit a couple at

542
00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:33,639
Speaker 5: the end that helped take it to overtime, hit that

543
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 5: real nice one to the end, and then just kept

544
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:39,960
Speaker 5: shooting threes in overtime while he was a little cold

545
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 5: and Derek White had been on fire the whole night,

546
00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 5: and it was just like, Oh, I you watching a

547
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,840
Speaker 5: game like that really makes you appreciate or makes me

548
00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,520
Speaker 5: appreciate how far he's come as like a playmaker and

549
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:52,840
Speaker 5: a guy that trusts his teammates, because I think early

550
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:56,160
Speaker 5: in his career he didn't have that level of trust

551
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:58,560
Speaker 5: of like getting off the ball quickly when he's getting

552
00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:01,920
Speaker 5: double teamed. And it's like, it's cool to see that growth.

553
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:03,440
Speaker 5: And then you watch a game like him take eighteen

554
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:06,120
Speaker 5: threes against the Pacers, and you're like, but just over there,

555
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:07,760
Speaker 5: there's two guys in front of you and none in

556
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:08,160
Speaker 5: front him.

557
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:10,800
Speaker 3: The other team that I think is surprisingly good this year,

558
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 3: that we're not gonna have time to like fully dig in.

559
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,959
Speaker 3: But the Warriors are six and one. We'll see how

560
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:20,400
Speaker 3: they hold up against the Celtics and the Jason Tatum

561
00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:23,080
Speaker 3: twenty five to three point attempts let's say thirty six.

562
00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:25,680
Speaker 2: It's in play. It is in play.

563
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:31,720
Speaker 3: Their point differential is seventeen point three plus against opponents

564
00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:34,960
Speaker 3: this season, just zero point one points behind. Okay, see okay,

565
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 3: see by the way, set the record for the most

566
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:40,160
Speaker 3: wins open a season that we're all by double digits,

567
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:44,640
Speaker 3: won every one of their seven games by double digits.

568
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:46,960
Speaker 3: Golden State's right on par with them in terms of

569
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 3: overall point differential. Again, it's just like I was saying

570
00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 3: that they just at random times appear to be like,

571
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 3: all right, this is the one where we're gonna like

572
00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:01,320
Speaker 3: have a championship run that nobody saw coming, like the

573
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:04,920
Speaker 3: championship run that they had two years ago where they

574
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:09,440
Speaker 3: beat the Celtics. I don't recall is foggy for all

575
00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:12,720
Speaker 3: of us, but in retrospect like makes even less sense

576
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:14,680
Speaker 3: than it. Like it was surprising at the time, but

577
00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:17,000
Speaker 3: like as with all news stories, we just like kind

578
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,160
Speaker 3: of get used to it and we're just like, oh, yeah,

579
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 3: you know, it makes sense. They've they've got stuff and stuff.

580
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 3: But like in retrospect, makes like Jordan Poole was the

581
00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:29,200
Speaker 3: missing and greet like the added missing ingredient that everyone's like, yeah, no,

582
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:33,360
Speaker 3: this is why, Like, and he has since then not

583
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:41,200
Speaker 3: been very good, you know, like who's the Canadian? Yeah,

584
00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:44,640
Speaker 3: Andrew Wiggins since then has like kind of fallen apart.

585
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:48,600
Speaker 3: It's like everything about that run doesn't really make sense

586
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:52,400
Speaker 3: in retrospect. And now they're kind of they're starting off like, yeah,

587
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:55,280
Speaker 3: we're gonna just we've decided to do it again.

588
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 5: Steph hurt for like half the game. Shore, Yeah, he

589
00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 5: got buddy, I'm ready for the is Draymond Actually the

590
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:05,400
Speaker 5: Warriors MVP takes man.

591
00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:08,480
Speaker 3: I've been ready, So.

592
00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:12,480
Speaker 2: You're Stevenson Born ready for the.

593
00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 3: He has replaced Chris Paul is my favorite NBA player actor.

594
00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:25,000
Speaker 3: His his acting Draymond h in the in the car commercials.

595
00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 3: His line deliveries off the charts for some reason. Him

596
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:34,080
Speaker 3: and Chris Paul is just jump jump off the screen

597
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 3: for me. Yeah, yeah, yeah, all right, anything else we

598
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 3: want to talk about before we uh go into the

599
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:41,320
Speaker 3: rapid fire around.

600
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:45,880
Speaker 1: I mean, I think the Bucks probably just as somebody

601
00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 1: who's seen where Darvin go, oh what's going on over there?

602
00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:54,680
Speaker 1: Oh what's going on over there? One in six I okay,

603
00:31:54,920 --> 00:32:00,160
Speaker 1: I just think there's something that feels ominous though, like

604
00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 1: the start isn't great. Like I understand a lot of

605
00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 1: people went into like could could they be a contender

606
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:09,680
Speaker 1: this year? Like could they be? The start indicates no,

607
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:14,400
Speaker 1: they are not. And the feel that the vibes are,

608
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:17,440
Speaker 1: they feel like they're rapidly going down. Plus like the

609
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:21,160
Speaker 1: possibility of a you know, a the honest departure, it

610
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:24,000
Speaker 1: just feels like there's I don't know, like something needs

611
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:25,120
Speaker 1: to give in one direction.

612
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:27,360
Speaker 3: A Greek Are you talking about the Greek.

613
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:30,240
Speaker 1: Who's got more Greek in him? I don't know, I mean,

614
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:32,400
Speaker 1: do you think. I mean, I've seen people talk about

615
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:33,800
Speaker 1: it's like, well, if they can get if they can

616
00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 1: win the next twelve ten games, they can get to

617
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 1: like kind of what the Knicks did in ninety nine

618
00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:41,280
Speaker 1: and get to a finals. Like with that record, I'm like,

619
00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:44,040
Speaker 1: m I don't know, I don't know.

620
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:45,200
Speaker 2: It's weird.

621
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:48,360
Speaker 5: I mean, first of all, shout out to the Blazers

622
00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:50,480
Speaker 5: for having a better record than the Bucks right now,

623
00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:54,120
Speaker 5: right yeah, that's that's my scorching hot take.

624
00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 2: Dave never should have left Portland three.

625
00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:58,960
Speaker 3: And five of the Blazers versus one and six, Milt one.

626
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 2: I don't know. I mean again, it's tough to go.

627
00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:07,560
Speaker 5: A team with Gianna Sante te Coempo and Dame Lillard

628
00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:10,640
Speaker 5: don't stand a chance in a playoff series, but like

629
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:14,560
Speaker 5: it's it would. I just don't know, it doesn't seem

630
00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:18,800
Speaker 5: like they they can play defense, and they just haven't

631
00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:21,560
Speaker 5: figured out anything yet.

632
00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:22,520
Speaker 2: I don't know.

633
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,320
Speaker 3: It's all bad all the good, like bullish takes on,

634
00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:27,800
Speaker 3: like how good they were going to be this year.

635
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 3: It turns out in retrospect where like people talking to

636
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 3: Doc Rivers like on the golf course, right and him

637
00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:38,200
Speaker 3: just being like, Dame's locked in this year. Last year

638
00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:40,800
Speaker 3: he was just like kind of bummed to be at Milwaukee,

639
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:44,800
Speaker 3: but this year he just seems happier and people are like,

640
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,280
Speaker 3: all right, yeah, good enough for me, all right.

641
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:50,160
Speaker 5: Duck Rivers seems like an all time great dude to

642
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 5: hang out, great hang oh, but he's not coaching your

643
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:54,200
Speaker 5: basketball tea he.

644
00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:58,160
Speaker 3: Was after his last run with the Sixers. You know,

645
00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:01,200
Speaker 3: he's really good ken be a really good regular season

646
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:04,120
Speaker 3: basketball coach. But I was like, like he just keeps

647
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:08,080
Speaker 3: getting shots. I don't totally get like why anytime there's

648
00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:10,399
Speaker 3: like a team that people are like, these guys are

649
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:13,520
Speaker 3: gonna be good if they just like figure a couple

650
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:16,440
Speaker 3: things out, he gets that job. And then I started

651
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:18,719
Speaker 3: hearing him on podcasts. I was like, oh, I get it,

652
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:20,600
Speaker 3: Like I just want to hang out with this. He

653
00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:24,239
Speaker 3: seems so cool. He just seems like he's the best guy,

654
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:28,240
Speaker 3: and like he has like interesting ideas and like draws

655
00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:31,360
Speaker 3: on his knowledge and like history in a way that's

656
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 3: just so like I don't know. I'm just like, yeah, man,

657
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:35,120
Speaker 3: take me wherever.

658
00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:36,680
Speaker 2: He's got a ring.

659
00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:40,600
Speaker 5: Plus he's got that right, so, like I bet in

660
00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:42,840
Speaker 5: the room he just crushes.

661
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:48,440
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah yeah. And that ring assistant staff was

662
00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:56,239
Speaker 3: Tom Thibodeau, right, sotant, Yeah, that's wild. Yeah. There's some

663
00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:58,319
Speaker 3: other team I forgot that we wanted to bring up

664
00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:00,840
Speaker 3: who's also like performing a little bit under expectations, but

665
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:03,960
Speaker 3: I can't remember them right now, so we'll just move

666
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:09,000
Speaker 3: on from the Lakers. No, no, no, it's okay. It's the same. Oh,

667
00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:12,600
Speaker 3: oh got it. It's the seventy six Ers. Oh yeah, yeah,

668
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:17,239
Speaker 3: the Sixers, I will say a little bit different. We

669
00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:20,520
Speaker 3: haven't had two of our three best players play yet,

670
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:24,240
Speaker 3: so I think, like, you know me, I'm not always

671
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:27,400
Speaker 3: the most optimistic fan of the seventy six ers. I

672
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:31,080
Speaker 3: do think people can we can relax until embiid is

673
00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:34,760
Speaker 3: back from his suspension, and I will not be commenting

674
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:36,160
Speaker 3: on the suspension at this.

675
00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:38,680
Speaker 2: How many games I saw that you suspend it? How

676
00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 2: three games?

677
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:43,200
Speaker 3: Yes? Three games according to Shams.

678
00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:48,480
Speaker 2: But Johnny bad news over here?

679
00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:52,759
Speaker 3: Job just mad at him for having bad news.

680
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:55,600
Speaker 2: Defer.

681
00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:58,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, am I right?

682
00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:00,360
Speaker 1: Fire Sky.

683
00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:04,120
Speaker 5: He's only saying bad stuff, he's only saying the negative stuff.

684
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:06,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like him. I don't like him.

685
00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:09,240
Speaker 2: Why don't say the positive Paul George played in a game?

686
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:15,480
Speaker 3: You don't report that, Jams? What if that that's on

687
00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 3: set and seat of jam? Idea? Is that something Jams.

688
00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:27,440
Speaker 2: Don't got.

689
00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:33,440
Speaker 1: Be suspended?

690
00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:40,719
Speaker 3: So dumb? All right, let's take a quick break and

691
00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:43,000
Speaker 3: we'll come back and do the rapid fire round the questioning.

692
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:54,160
Speaker 7: We'll be right back, and we're back.

693
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:59,719
Speaker 3: We're back, and it is of course time. Josh, you've

694
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:04,520
Speaker 3: you stepped in it once again, and it's deep stepped

695
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:06,160
Speaker 3: in it up to your knees. My friends.

696
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:11,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, I told you, I behind those horses.

697
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:15,280
Speaker 3: I know, I know Clydesdale's Clyde.

698
00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:18,640
Speaker 1: So yes, the fourth quarter rap if I round of

699
00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:20,680
Speaker 1: questioning Josh Godlman, you already know what the deal is.

700
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,959
Speaker 1: It's a question answer segment. Just go quick, don't use

701
00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:27,239
Speaker 1: that you know what the impressive intellect of yours to

702
00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:30,040
Speaker 1: find the perfect answer. Just give us what is the

703
00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:34,080
Speaker 1: instant reaction? Your real stuff? Okay, yep, And if you're not,

704
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:36,480
Speaker 1: we will be rude to you. And it's very difficult

705
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,239
Speaker 1: to be rude to Josh Godlman because you are a

706
00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:39,799
Speaker 1: very kind person, and we.

707
00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 2: Will do it will make me feel bad.

708
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:42,719
Speaker 1: Just glad.

709
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:44,719
Speaker 2: I'm I'm not saying that to guilt you. I'm just

710
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:47,160
Speaker 2: saying your rudeness will be effective on me. Thank you.

711
00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:48,040
Speaker 2: I'm thought of you.

712
00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:48,759
Speaker 1: I know.

713
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:50,799
Speaker 3: I told you. I told you we could get in

714
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:51,640
Speaker 3: this fool's head.

715
00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:54,200
Speaker 1: Told you, man, we're gonna go. We're gonna throw him

716
00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:55,560
Speaker 1: all off ballots. Here we go.

717
00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:01,279
Speaker 3: Okay, shoot from the hip like me shooting a three

718
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:03,879
Speaker 3: pointer because I have very weak arms.

719
00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:06,720
Speaker 2: And style.

720
00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:10,960
Speaker 5: I truly texted a friend what weight should I lift

721
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 5: so I can shoot and be anyway for three?

722
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:15,520
Speaker 3: So much?

723
00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:17,640
Speaker 2: Probably?

724
00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:20,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, just just a lot of shoulder presses, you know,

725
00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:21,719
Speaker 1: just to get this all up, you know what I mean,

726
00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:24,719
Speaker 1: raising the roof. Wait, Josh, you're getting us off our game. Man.

727
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:26,080
Speaker 1: This is the Rappi fire round of questioning.

728
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:26,640
Speaker 2: Jack.

729
00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 1: You can know first. I'm not gonna go first.

730
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:29,400
Speaker 3: I think you should Miles.

731
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:34,239
Speaker 1: Okay, Josh, first question. And this is kind of a

732
00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:37,600
Speaker 1: sort of complex one. So we had a bit of

733
00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:41,879
Speaker 1: an understanding in our show group text thread when I

734
00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:45,319
Speaker 1: heard about Jaw's butt pass. He said, you guys, this

735
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:47,960
Speaker 1: is wow. This Jaw did a butt pass. I thought

736
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:52,080
Speaker 1: it was going to be Jaw kind of maybe using

737
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:54,480
Speaker 1: his butt as sort of like an air bud nose

738
00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:57,080
Speaker 1: to sort of like pop the ball into the air.

739
00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:01,080
Speaker 1: I didn't realize there's just him making a pass from

740
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:02,840
Speaker 1: his posterior yes, on the ground.

741
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:03,080
Speaker 3: Yeah.

742
00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:06,200
Speaker 1: But if we are using that move similar to how

743
00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:08,279
Speaker 1: like the Jason Williams elbow passed, and we are talking

744
00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:10,840
Speaker 1: about a butt pass, what NBA player are you using

745
00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:12,080
Speaker 1: to execute that move?

746
00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:19,200
Speaker 3: Seventy six Yeah, you have a Sellly go something in

747
00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:22,560
Speaker 3: the tank. Yeah, I like it. Yeah, I mean the

748
00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:29,000
Speaker 3: seventy six ers a lot of Kyle is my number one, yeah, Yeah,

749
00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:33,480
Speaker 3: Stacy King, Duckworth. These are names that popped up in

750
00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:35,360
Speaker 3: my head like pear shaped players.

751
00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:39,439
Speaker 1: You know, absolutely Chris Paul to Chris Paul could do Chris.

752
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:42,239
Speaker 3: But people who like played from their bat like Mark

753
00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:46,279
Speaker 3: Jackson his whole career, like he used his butt as

754
00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:49,080
Speaker 3: a weapon, and like you know, like he do you

755
00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:52,000
Speaker 3: remember that this might have been before your time. But

756
00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:55,439
Speaker 3: Mark Jackson's just one season just started backing people all

757
00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:57,400
Speaker 3: the way down. He was six feet tall, but he

758
00:39:57,480 --> 00:40:00,120
Speaker 3: was just backed people like to under the basket. It

759
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:04,000
Speaker 3: was unbelievable. Barkley, I think it was the first name

760
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:04,640
Speaker 3: that came out.

761
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,200
Speaker 1: Everyone's first. Yeah, but you gotta get a little nuanced

762
00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:07,400
Speaker 1: with it.

763
00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:12,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, we're playing pickup hoops with People Magazine

764
00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:18,200
Speaker 3: Sexiest Man Alive, and they've all entered the time machine.

765
00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:22,640
Speaker 3: They're all at their physical peaks. Well, actually, I'm not

766
00:40:22,640 --> 00:40:24,800
Speaker 3: going to say they're at their physical peaks. They're all

767
00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:27,680
Speaker 3: at the place they were physically when they were named

768
00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:30,040
Speaker 3: People Magazine's Sexiest.

769
00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:31,360
Speaker 2: They were at their sexual peaks.

770
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:38,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, sexual sexiest, sexual sexiest trowel peak. So we went first,

771
00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:44,919
Speaker 3: and we took Denzel Washington circa nineteen ninety six when

772
00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:47,880
Speaker 3: he won who And by the way, in a recent episode,

773
00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:49,839
Speaker 3: we did learn that in the movie he got game

774
00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:53,040
Speaker 3: he did all his own stunts and also in the

775
00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:56,680
Speaker 3: final one on one matchup with Ray Allen, his son.

776
00:40:56,719 --> 00:41:00,840
Speaker 3: In that movie, Ye insisted that like it was supposed

777
00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:03,640
Speaker 3: to be like an eight nothing blowout, and he was like,

778
00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:07,000
Speaker 3: that doesn't feel right to me. I think I should

Speaker 2: think I would? I think I do have cord.

862
00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:06,160
Speaker 5: I'm sure I've made a half court shot at some point.

863
00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:08,799
Speaker 5: I'm sure I think I've done it because I used

864
00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:11,600
Speaker 5: to play all the time. And yeah, I'm not in

865
00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:14,200
Speaker 5: my best shape, but like I have been shooting. I

Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah for the money.

869
00:45:24,640 --> 00:45:27,640
Speaker 2: Nobody laughs at you if you miss the half court shot.

870
00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:33,239
Speaker 3: That's true. Oh yeah, the people who airball. Did you

871
00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:35,920
Speaker 3: see the footage of like the Halloween night game. I

872
00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:39,720
Speaker 3: forget what NBA arena was, but it was just somebody

873
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:42,480
Speaker 3: had to take it from half court and run up

874
00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:45,280
Speaker 3: and make a free throw, and somebody in a Michael

Speaker 3: Myer's costume was just like walking slowly to swat their shot,

876
00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:55,160
Speaker 3: and they air balled the free throw so badly and

877
00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:56,960
Speaker 3: then got swatted on the next shot.

878
00:45:57,040 --> 00:45:57,279
Speaker 2: It was.

879
00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:01,239
Speaker 5: My free throw percentage lately has been pretty decent, so

880
00:46:01,520 --> 00:46:02,520
Speaker 5: I feel like I could do it.

881
00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:03,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've been.

882
00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:05,560
Speaker 5: I've been getting some shots up in the morning now

883
00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:07,480
Speaker 5: that the teens are back in school, and I'm not

00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:12,360
Speaker 5: ask me to play with them because I'm not a

Speaker 3: But you know that footage of that, You're just a screen.

891
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:28,680
Speaker 1: The older Greek dude with the beard who's got the tims?

892
00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:30,360
Speaker 1: Have you seen him that? Like New York dude, that

893
00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:32,400
Speaker 1: guy in New York who's just yeah, I forget what

Speaker 5: I wish he had made a more impressive showing with

897
00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:47,880
Speaker 5: that dunk contest dunk in TIMS, because I thought that

898
00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:50,279
Speaker 5: was like a fun But every dunk contest idea is

899
00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:52,160
Speaker 5: fun until someone misses it three times and then you're

900
00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:52,600
Speaker 5: just like.

901
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:55,879
Speaker 2: Come on, get on here, get out of here, let's

902
00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:57,560
Speaker 2: see that. Let's see your plan. B.

903
00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:02,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, we have posed to the league the idea that

904
00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:05,279
Speaker 3: like having a wrinkle where a team has to play

905
00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:09,839
Speaker 3: in Tim's one quarter out of like the playoffs, they

906
00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:13,000
Speaker 3: just if you haven't used it by game four and

907
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:14,600
Speaker 3: it's like all gonna be a sweep, you have to

908
00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:17,200
Speaker 3: use it in the fourth. Go Yeah, it would be

909
00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:21,400
Speaker 3: might be fun, all right. And finally, you are a

910
00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:25,680
Speaker 3: Celtics fanm your team has a final possession down to

911
00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:30,040
Speaker 3: game seven, fifteen seconds on the clock, taking it outside

912
00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:34,280
Speaker 3: out of bounds. Which player from throughout your franchise history again,

913
00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:36,960
Speaker 3: peak of their game do you want with the ball

914
00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:37,720
Speaker 3: in their hands?

915
00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:39,319
Speaker 1: An embarrassment of options here?

916
00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:42,520
Speaker 2: And I know I think I think it's got to

917
00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:43,280
Speaker 2: be Larry Bird.

918
00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:44,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's the right answer.

919
00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:45,960
Speaker 2: I think it's the right answer.

920
00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:49,399
Speaker 5: Also, it's not just his skill as a shooter, which

921
00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:52,000
Speaker 5: I think he would hit so many threes in today's NBA,

922
00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:57,279
Speaker 5: but I like his key channels his spite effectively. Like

923
00:47:57,360 --> 00:47:59,200
Speaker 5: he was always a guy that when he really wanted

924
00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:02,920
Speaker 5: to embarrass someone, he was very successful at that. And

925
00:48:02,960 --> 00:48:04,440
Speaker 5: I think that's what you want at the end of

926
00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:07,280
Speaker 5: the game, someone who knows how to channel that spite

927
00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:07,960
Speaker 5: into victory.

928
00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:11,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's the right answer. I think Josh,

929
00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:16,840
Speaker 3: I think the test you thank you you got, or

930
00:48:16,920 --> 00:48:19,080
Speaker 3: like Tadam shooting percentage.

931
00:48:18,719 --> 00:48:21,040
Speaker 5: Printer right, if you had to shoot from behind half

932
00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:25,239
Speaker 5: court and it's a buzzer beater byby Pritch pp, I

933
00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:26,200
Speaker 5: mean logo.

934
00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:28,920
Speaker 2: He's on such a ridiculous.

935
00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:31,480
Speaker 1: Heater with wild unbelievable And.

936
00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:33,880
Speaker 5: It's also like there's so okay, I know this is

937
00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:36,000
Speaker 5: the lightning round, but I think it's so funny that it,

938
00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:40,720
Speaker 5: like the convention is sometimes to shoot like just after

939
00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:43,120
Speaker 5: the buzzer, right, people are concerned about their percentages, but

940
00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:46,440
Speaker 5: it's like if you're playing the possession game. I hate

941
00:48:46,440 --> 00:48:48,239
Speaker 5: the two for one. I feel like it's usually two

942
00:48:48,280 --> 00:48:51,080
Speaker 5: bad shots instead of one good shot. I am always

943
00:48:51,080 --> 00:48:53,400
Speaker 5: in favor of the heap because that's a bonus shot

944
00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:55,720
Speaker 5: that was possession always.

945
00:48:55,760 --> 00:48:55,960
Speaker 7: Yeah.

946
00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:59,920
Speaker 3: Sure, And to have somebody who randomly is great at

947
00:48:59,920 --> 00:49:02,279
Speaker 3: the heave. Yeah, Like we were talking about this during

948
00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:07,040
Speaker 3: the bubble. I think when Dame and Steph were just like, yes,

949
00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:11,239
Speaker 3: shooting from mid court randomly, like on random possessions and

950
00:49:11,320 --> 00:49:14,719
Speaker 3: it was going in Like, I feel like there's a

951
00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:18,960
Speaker 3: possibility of that being a play that people just have

952
00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:21,359
Speaker 3: to like scheme for defensive.

953
00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:23,880
Speaker 5: It's going to lead to people, right, It's gonna lead

954
00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:27,160
Speaker 5: to people playing defense on those shots, which is going

955
00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:30,759
Speaker 5: to lead to like wildly controversial foul calls.

956
00:49:30,920 --> 00:49:33,120
