Speaker 1: on that one we did learn this morning. Task Kyle

00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:46,239
Speaker 1: one at your host?

39
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 3: Ask no COVID rules?

40
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:49,919
Speaker 1: Say no, my friends watch it outside?

41
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 3: Man, I don't have that ability.

42
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 4: How's that pause thumb working?

43
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:56,919
Speaker 3: Though? Oh?

44
00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 5: Always good, always good checking I'm checking, checking for all

45
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 5: those fans out there.

46
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:01,240
Speaker 6: Yeah.

47
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 5: I used to check for Raptors home games to scan

48
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 5: the crowd and figured I'd find somebody in those ten

49
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 5: thousand suits that I knew once a playoff, I would

50
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,959
Speaker 5: find somebody on It would always pay off. It would

51
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,639
Speaker 5: always piss off the guests as I paused and look

52
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,400
Speaker 5: for somebody, but it'd always pay off. Now I'm not

53
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 5: looking for virtual fans. I'm not gonna happen.

54
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,799
Speaker 1: Oh No. Later on today's pod, we're gonna break down

55
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 1: the heat Bucks second round series, so stick around for that.

56
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 1: But first let's start with Saturday's games. We'll begin with

57
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 1: the Thunder Rocket series. Harden scores thirty one. Westbrook Returns.

58
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 1: Rockets beat the Thunder quite handily for the three to

59
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 1: two series lead. Lots to break down. I feel though,

60
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 1: from this game, who wants to get a start at test.

61
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'll kind have started. Eighty points. The Thunder put

62
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 5: up against this Houston Rockets defense that people were questioning

63
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 5: coming into the postseason, and a big part of the

64
00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 5: story is Lou Dort, Thunder wing player, that the Rockets

65
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 5: are just leaving open. Hey you shoot it, and it

66
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 5: was not going in for the majority of this game,

67
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 5: he was one for nine in the first quarter. He

68
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 5: was clanking, clanking, clanking. He didn't hit a three all

69
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:18,840
Speaker 5: game long, three of sixteen overall, and everybody focusing on

70
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,040
Speaker 5: that he is supposed to be the James Harden stopper.

71
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 5: But at the other end, they're playing four on five

72
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 5: because they're really just guarding the other four guys with

73
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:28,840
Speaker 5: their five guys and letting lou Dort go. But at

74
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 5: the same time, it was like the Thunder, we're playing

75
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 5: three on five because Shay Gildos Alexander had as many

76
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,920
Speaker 5: points as turnovers and Danilo Gallinari didn't hit a basket

77
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 5: the whole game. So it was a combination of a

78
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 5: bunch of things. And then the Thunder somehow got back

79
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 5: in this game with Dennis shrewdter coming back on the floor.

80
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 5: They always get back from these double deficit deficit, double deficit.

81
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 3: Double digit deficits.

82
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, but that always happens with this team when they

83
00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:59,040
Speaker 5: bring Dennis Shooter back onto the floor. And we'll get

84
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 5: to Shooter in a second. But I think just to

85
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 5: try and solve the problem with along with Billy Donovan,

86
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 5: I think he's got to keep lou Dort on the floor.

87
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,160
Speaker 5: I think that's fine. I think you just have to

88
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 5: mix it up.

89
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 3: A little bit.

90
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 5: He has to mix up his game a little bit,

91
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 5: get him involved in screen and rolls where you kind

92
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 5: of have some things going on there.

93
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 3: You got to kind of pick.

94
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 5: But also I think he's got to keep shooting the three,

95
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:24,120
Speaker 5: and if not, it kind of works. Kind of he

96
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 5: has to drive like they are leaving him entirely open.

97
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,280
Speaker 5: He's got a lane, he can drive to the lane,

98
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,920
Speaker 5: and then when he misses, everybody kind of comes over

99
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,360
Speaker 5: and has to help off Steven Adams. Steven Adams can

100
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 5: get an offensive rebound. I think there's a you can drive.

101
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,159
Speaker 5: There's a combination of things. And he hit three threes

102
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 5: in game four and everything was totally fine. I think

103
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 5: if Shay Gilders Alexander finds his game a little bit

104
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 5: and finds his defense a little bit and Gallinari is

105
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,200
Speaker 5: not an over, then we're not really talking about lou

106
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 5: Dort as much. But lou Dord has the ability to

107
00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 5: get around the rim when there's freaking wide open lane too.

108
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 3: So he's here.

109
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 5: He's got to drive more and again because they're you

110
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 5: know all over the place, they can recover and be

111
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 5: late when they're trying to recover, I should say, and

112
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 5: then Steven Adams can get some some little chippies in

113
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,160
Speaker 5: there along with loud Dort. But as soon as he

114
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 5: gets in there and lou Dort gets in there and

115
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 5: starts passing, then that's not so good. It just straight,

116
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 5: straight line for the bucket and that's it. But listen,

117
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 5: Billy Donovond's got to get more creative. I think, yeah,

118
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 5: But I think you do keep him on the floor

119
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 5: because the rest of the thunder guards and wings are

120
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,039
Speaker 5: pretty holy as well. In their games, they're they're not

121
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 5: They're not gonna secure things.

122
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 4: That was tough.

123
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,919
Speaker 6: I was thinking, is Billy Donovan gonna pull loud Dort

124
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 6: for the knockdown shooting of Andre Robertson.

125
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 3: That's how bad it got.

126
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,040
Speaker 6: But basically, there were four players for the Thunder who

127
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,839
Speaker 6: couldn't score yesterday and their starting lineup, and that's why

128
00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,840
Speaker 6: they ended with eighty points. Like you're saying, Gallinari, invisible

129
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 6: Dort was a brickfast Steven Adams, he had twelve, but

130
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 6: like twelve points from Steven Adams just means he's grabbing

131
00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 6: a couple of offensive rebounds and putting them back in.

132
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:02,360
Speaker 4: That's not actual scoring.

133
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:06,599
Speaker 6: And then, like you're saying, tass Sga just looked completely

134
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 6: shell shocked. He was getting roasted on defense. He wasn't

135
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 6: doing anything on offense. Chris Paul was having to give

136
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 6: him a few little talkings too, and it just didn't

137
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 6: go over.

138
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 1: Well.

139
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 6: Shay's got to maybe be He's got to be, at

140
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 6: worst their third best player. You would think at least

141
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 6: just doing things off the dribble if they're gonna be

142
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 6: playing a little bit of small ball. But it was

143
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:28,360
Speaker 6: just a disaster for the Thunder yesterday. Tough night to

144
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 6: be a homer.

145
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean Lou Dort is, no doubt officially Tony

146
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 1: Allen two point zero. That is both the greatest compliment

147
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 1: in the world and the biggest diss in the world

148
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 1: at the exact same time, because I mean, took us

149
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 1: through it. There, they're just leaving them, just saying we're

150
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 1: gonna let you chuck away. Man, it's not a pretty

151
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 1: looking shot. Your confidence is obviously shot as you miss,

152
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 1: miss miss, and he's gotta try something different. But use

153
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,320
Speaker 1: him as a screener. I think that is a great idea,

154
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 1: and they actually did task like four minutes to go

155
00:07:57,720 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 1: with the second quarter. I put in my notes because

156
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 1: I had down like, Okay, try something else. Don't have

157
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 1: them just parked at the three point line, because that's

158
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 1: not working. They're just leaving them. And yeah, you want

159
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 1: them to keep shooting it with some confidence. You're open,

160
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 1: you're an NBA player, you gotta shoot it. But they

161
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 1: used him as a screener and it was beautiful. He

162
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 1: slipped it Dennis Shruder, nice pass and he scored a nice,

163
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 1: simple little layup. I would have liked to see in

164
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 1: a little bit more of that because he doesn't.

165
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 5: Even do that more often though, when Steven Adams isn't

166
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,239
Speaker 5: on the floor, yes, Adam Adams wasn't on there or else they're.

167
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 3: Getting in each other's way.

168
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 5: But yeah, you can have four spread with yeah, lou

169
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 5: Dort basically as your center for sure.

170
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:32,840
Speaker 1: Yeah. And another thing we had talked about was this

171
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 1: Thunder team and Trey again, you like perfectly went through

172
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,200
Speaker 1: the box score. Really and all these guys giving them overers.

173
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,440
Speaker 1: I mean, they don't have the guy we said, they

174
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,600
Speaker 1: don't really have the guy that can Like, Okay, I

175
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 1: got us tonight. I'll get us to forty or fifty.

176
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:46,720
Speaker 1: It's not Chris Paul. Even Shrewder, you know, is going

177
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 1: to cap out around the thirty mark. And again we'll

178
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,520
Speaker 1: get to his incident. But yeah, all these guys just

179
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 1: picked the exact same night to just disappear, especially SGA

180
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 1: and Gollinari. I wrote a tweeted, is Gallinari playing?

181
00:08:58,280 --> 00:08:58,360
Speaker 2: Like?

182
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 1: The first quarter went by and I hadn't he like

183
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,720
Speaker 1: noticed he was out there, the name his name wasn't mentioned,

184
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:04,800
Speaker 1: and people were like, well, he did lose his shoe,

185
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh, yeah, that's the one thing Gallinari

186
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 1: did all game. He lost his shoe and then he

187
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 1: couldn't even put that on all that quickly one point

188
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,160
Speaker 1: in twenty two minutes, didn't hit a shot and had

189
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 1: four turnovers. He was I was like, what is wrong

190
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,199
Speaker 1: with him? I know SG had a rough game too,

191
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,560
Speaker 1: but like Culinari, I was like, is he injured? Did

192
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 1: something happen off? You know away from the bubble. He

193
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,600
Speaker 1: was just he wouldn't have known. It was a game,

194
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 1: a pivotal game five me. With the way some of

195
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,440
Speaker 1: the thunder guys were playing, they really were just like

196
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 1: just like zombies.

197
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I felt bad for Spirodets on the call as

198
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 2: well because he kept saying Gallinari, but he wasn't really

199
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 2: performing for him, so he couldn't really get into it.

200
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:45,840
Speaker 2: But I think, also though, what we are probably not

201
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,080
Speaker 2: doing is giving the Houston Rockets enough credit, because what

202
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,960
Speaker 2: I thought yesterday was important when the Thunder took that

203
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 2: lead and it sort of felt like maybe the Rockets

204
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 2: offense had slowed down a little bit. Then hard and

205
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 2: hit the three gets him back in. But then in

206
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 2: the second half when they built up that lead. What

207
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:00,560
Speaker 2: I think they did better in game five and they

208
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 2: did badly in Game three and four, is they didn't

209
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 2: just stay shooting threes. They drove inside and they can

210
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 2: score any time they want inside. Eric Gordon got a

211
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 2: ton of layups and James Harden actually got some quite

212
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 2: easily as well. And I think that's the other point

213
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 2: about the Thunder is their offense, while it was awful yesterday,

214
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 2: their defense outside of Dort was not much better. The

215
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 2: Rockets had so many uncontested or wide open looks and

216
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 2: they knocked them in and I think that's the key

217
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:26,440
Speaker 2: with the Rockets. The point I was trying to make

218
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 2: the other day is they need to find a way

219
00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:31,439
Speaker 2: to keep the scoreboard ticking, because in that game four

220
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,720
Speaker 2: when they fell apart, they just the three point wasn't

221
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 2: going in, and that was all they were doing. In

222
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:37,160
Speaker 2: this game. It was like they built that lead up

223
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:38,560
Speaker 2: to six and then to eight points, and then at

224
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:40,319
Speaker 2: the thunder score then they'd go back to another layup

225
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,559
Speaker 2: and just sort of keep that lead in that sort

226
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 2: of buffer zone. And I think that's the sort of

227
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 2: variety they need a little bit more of in their offense.

228
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 2: And if they do that, they're gonna win Game six easily,

229
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:51,560
Speaker 2: if they just continue to drive. Because there was no

230
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,600
Speaker 2: resistance Steven Adams. I mean, you know, he's out there

231
00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 2: because he's supposed to be the big and he's supposed

232
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 2: to be the sort of deterrent. He was awful yesterday,

233
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 2: and I say, no one from Oka see I thought

234
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 2: showed any resistance to Houston. So a very convincing win.

235
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:07,840
Speaker 2: And I did think they mixed up their game enough

236
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 2: to basically take it out of okay SE's reach. Because

237
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 2: those guys as well, when you mentioned, you know, Alexander

238
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,480
Speaker 2: was bad, yes, stayed Chris Paul he's the guy who

239
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,440
Speaker 2: is capable of going for thirty five still, but you

240
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 2: just don't want that to be your offense. You need

241
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 2: the younger guys to do it, and that wasn't happening.

242
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:23,920
Speaker 2: And when they were down big, they just weren't able

243
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,200
Speaker 2: to get back into the game like they were in

244
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 2: Game three and four because Houston didn't give them that opportunity.

245
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:31,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I mean it's tough. You're right, I mean,

246
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 1: did we gloss over how well the Rockets played. It

247
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:35,839
Speaker 1: just felt like the thunder were also giving them the

248
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 1: ball half the time. I mean, at the start of

249
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,720
Speaker 1: the second half, it was like a Covington three two

250
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 1: brutal dork turnovers where he just gave them the ball.

251
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,160
Speaker 1: And then you're right, a few rocket layups because they

252
00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:48,560
Speaker 1: were attacking. That was an Eedle run timeout, and then

253
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 1: that continued. It was an eighteen to two run and

254
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,439
Speaker 1: then the game was basically over. No, you are right.

255
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 1: I mean, Harden had a great game. He played even

256
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 1: another phenomenal game. Like we just we held like his

257
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 1: box are so insane that he has a normal I

258
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:04,080
Speaker 1: guess normal. It's still a great box score, and you're like,

259
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:05,960
Speaker 1: we don't even we don't even mention it. But what

260
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,680
Speaker 1: did you think of Westbrook tray? You know, he's seven

261
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 1: point six foards, seven assists in limited minutes, which was

262
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 1: the game plan. What'd you think did did him just

263
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 1: being out there help the Rockets or was this just

264
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:18,440
Speaker 1: a case of the Thunder playing like garbage and gave five? Uh?

265
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:18,920
Speaker 4: Both.

266
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,200
Speaker 6: I think having Westbrook back is just a little bit

267
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 6: of an emotional boost for Houston. You know, we talked

268
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:26,560
Speaker 6: about early in the series that seemed like he was

269
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:29,439
Speaker 6: having an effect on the sideline, getting everybody going and

270
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,840
Speaker 6: getting everybody fired up. But eventually you want him to play.

271
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,720
Speaker 6: The problem is that even before he was sitting with

272
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,079
Speaker 6: an injury, he was sitting to rest that injury. He's

273
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,960
Speaker 6: played one game since August fourth. Now he's played two games,

274
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,199
Speaker 6: and last night or yesterday, I don't even know remember

275
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 6: what time this game was on yesterday, he was rusty,

276
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:46,640
Speaker 6: and that's fine. You know, if you don't play NBA

277
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:48,960
Speaker 6: basketball for a month and then you go into the playoffs,

278
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 6: it's going to be tough. But having him out there

279
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,440
Speaker 6: is just another guy who can help you on the glass,

280
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:55,959
Speaker 6: who can give you a threat of somebody to create

281
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,560
Speaker 6: off the dribble and can raise the intensity a level

282
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 6: a little bit. You know, he shot three thirteen. That

283
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 6: could be a Westbrookian kind of night where you lose

284
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:05,559
Speaker 6: a game, but on a night where everybody else has

285
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 6: it going, it's not a big deal, you know. Eleven

286
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 6: for fifteen for James Harden. Dort was making it tough,

287
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,800
Speaker 6: but Dort was also getting roasted. And then Eric Gordon

288
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 6: nine for seventeen. It looked like he could get to

289
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:15,599
Speaker 6: the rim anytime he won it.

290
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, the bowling Bowl, Eric Gordon, when he gets going

291
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,960
Speaker 1: and the guy's bounce off him. Yeah, you're right. Westbrook

292
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,400
Speaker 1: just gave them the spark. I think Mike D'Antoni talked

293
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,480
Speaker 1: about after the game he had won like really early

294
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 1: in the game, like Brody in transition, Adam's backpedaling stopped,

295
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 1: Pop splashed it. But yeah, otherwise he sort of struggled

296
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:33,599
Speaker 1: with the shot, but he set guys up and he

297
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,720
Speaker 1: just gets them going, like and then the threes like

298
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 1: they happened in rhythm, a little bit more lee when

299
00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,480
Speaker 1: you can get down the floor a little quicker because

300
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:44,960
Speaker 1: Westbrook's pushing it. Guys are getting to their corner spots

301
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:46,840
Speaker 1: and it's it's pinging around a little bit more and

302
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 1: you're a little bit more in rhythm with some of

303
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,960
Speaker 1: those shots or attacking. Okay, let's get to the incident

304
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 1: between Dennis Shrewder and PJ. Tucker, both guys getting tossed.

305
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 1: Task do you think we will see a suspension coming

306
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 1: down from the league for either of these guys? Now,

307
00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 1: shooter after they looked at it, upper cut to the

308
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:07,559
Speaker 1: nuts and then PJ. Tucker with the very soft, gentle

309
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 1: head butt from behind. That was enough to warrant ejection.

310
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:11,720
Speaker 1: But will either guys get a game here? What do

311
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 1: you think?

312
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,000
Speaker 5: I don't think so, and I hope not because that

313
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,200
Speaker 5: would be the end of this series. If Dennis Shruder

314
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:21,320
Speaker 5: gets suspended, specifically, it's done there. There's no way that.

315
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:23,400
Speaker 5: Ok So he can make game six a game six

316
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 5: without Dennis Shruter. And I think PJ. Tucker's head butt

317
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:31,880
Speaker 5: was gentle enough, and it was. It was almost after

318
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 5: like five seconds of jawing at the back of Dennis

319
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:38,080
Speaker 5: Shruder's head like he was talking to Dennis Shruter's head.

320
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:40,360
Speaker 5: Nice haircut, nice haircut, nice haircut, like your hair. I

321
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 5: like the way you've got that fage going which barber

322
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 5: from here in.

323
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 3: The bubble, did you get done?

324
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:47,640
Speaker 5: And then he gently bumped his head, so it wasn't

325
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 5: It wasn't an egregious, I'm coming at you type of

326
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 5: head butt.

327
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 3: It was. It was questionable on both sides.

328
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:55,960
Speaker 5: Did they know that Dennis Shruter punched him in the

329
00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 5: nuts when they went to go check on the flagrant

330
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 5: foul from p J Tucker or for the flagrant act

331
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 5: from PJ Tucker. I don't think so. They just saw

332
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,120
Speaker 5: it afterward. And does that matter when it comes to suspension.

333
00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 3: Probably not.

334
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 5: But I just I don't think that was enough, and

335
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:15,200
Speaker 5: it was it was crazy. I didn't see it whatsoever.

336
00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:18,200
Speaker 5: It sure seemed like it was intentional after the fact

337
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 5: that Dennis Ruder hit him down there, But I didn't

338
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:21,080
Speaker 5: see it.

339
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, the really reason I ask of whether

340
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 1: or not you think it would get a game for

341
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:27,120
Speaker 1: Dennis Shruder for the for the uppercut to the nuts

342
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,400
Speaker 1: is and Larry Luke. Our friend Larry Luke pointed out

343
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 1: on Twitter Dennis Shruter, in like his fourth or fifth

344
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 1: game with the Hawks way back when got a game

345
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:40,720
Speaker 1: for sort of squeezing slash punching DeMarcus Cousins in the groin,

346
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,480
Speaker 1: and the league gave him one. Now it's a regular season.

347
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 1: He's basically brand new to the league. Maybe they're trying

348
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 1: to send a message to him and we don't do that.

349
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 1: But I'm with you. I don't think ultimately either of

350
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 1: these guys get a game, nor do I think it's warranted.

351
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:56,400
Speaker 1: I almost would say tossing them.

352
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 6: Both was like, maybe, oh, come on, you guys are

353
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 6: too little hard. You guys are too nice when it

354
00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 6: comes to people punching other people in the nuts. This

355
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 6: is the second nut smack for the Thunder this series,

356
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 6: the second in Dennis Shruder's career. He's obviously learning from

357
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:12,720
Speaker 6: Chris Paul, who punched Ben maclamore in the nuts and

358
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:16,200
Speaker 6: has a history of nut punching in his in his career,

359
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:19,880
Speaker 6: dating back to his college years. You can't punch other

360
00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 6: players in the nuts. You should at least be kicked

361
00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:22,000
Speaker 6: out of the game.

362
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 4: I wouldn't be.

363
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 6: Surprised if shooters suspended, and that would be a problem

364
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:26,640
Speaker 6: for Okay. See, he's been their best player so far.

365
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:32,160
Speaker 1: Well, guys do accidentally punch people in the I'm just

366
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 1: telling you. I mean, many guys have been kicked in

367
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 1: the nuts and not immediately ejected, So it does happen.

368
00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 1: I was I was more saying Tucker, by the way,

369
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:42,480
Speaker 1: I don't think warranted an ejection for what he did.

370
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:44,680
Speaker 1: But uh, I don't think they're gonna get a game lead.

371
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:45,280
Speaker 1: You agree, what?

372
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:45,720
Speaker 3: Yeah?

373
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 2: I think they do survive this one, because you know,

374
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 2: if you go back to the Jannis hit butt in

375
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 2: the regular bubble season here where he kind of walked

376
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 2: up to Mo Wagner and smacked him right in the head.

377
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 2: In this case, I think PJ was like, hey, you

378
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,360
Speaker 2: got me in the nuts man, and a shrew was

379
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 2: turn around and fiace me, yeah exactly, and he sort

380
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:04,480
Speaker 2: of he gave him a little But I think I

381
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 2: think the ejections was probably enough, and I think the

382
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:09,920
Speaker 2: it would be a little bit too extreme, I think

383
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,280
Speaker 2: in this case to suspend them both. But the Dennis

384
00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 2: shrewder one, because that's first I wondered why PJ. Tucker

385
00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 2: was so upset. I thought he was accusing Shrud to

386
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 2: flopping because I didn't see it on the initial one.

387
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,240
Speaker 2: But then Shruda does like it's a it's a weird

388
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 2: sort of way. He gets his arm up under there

389
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:28,040
Speaker 2: and gets PJ right in the tuckers. So I think

390
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:31,120
Speaker 2: the pj's response and I think this is what is important.

391
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 2: If you get hit in the nuts, I think it's

392
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:34,400
Speaker 2: fair to go to the guy and say, don't hit

393
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:36,520
Speaker 2: me in the nuts, you know, like like, come on, man,

394
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 2: what are you doing here? So but I think when

395
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:40,680
Speaker 2: they looked at it, they thought, well, we have to

396
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,960
Speaker 2: suspend well said sorry, we have to eject PJ because

397
00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:45,159
Speaker 2: he did headbut him. He did do it, but we

398
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:46,959
Speaker 2: also then have to throw out Dennis for hitting him

399
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 2: in the nuts. And I think that's where they'll end

400
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,879
Speaker 2: it myself. So yeah, you know, I've said, you know,

401
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 2: like the Yannis one, I thought he should have gotten

402
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,359
Speaker 2: two games, and history tells us a headbutt tends to

403
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,200
Speaker 2: get you one game. But I think the ejection will

404
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:00,359
Speaker 2: end this one.

405
00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 1: Sorry, I though you're gonna jump in there or say something.

406
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:07,879
Speaker 5: Well, I know that the thunder we're playing terrible in

407
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,320
Speaker 5: that third quarter, and even when Dennis Shruder was on

408
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 5: the floor before getting ejected, but.

409
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:13,680
Speaker 3: That was the death knell of this game.

410
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 5: That was the end of this game as soon as

411
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:19,199
Speaker 5: shrewd was was kicked off the floor. And I'm personally,

412
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 5: I'm being selfish here. I want Game six to be

413
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:25,000
Speaker 5: a game. I wanted to have some sort of merit.

414
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:29,440
Speaker 5: There's no doubt Shrewder went after uh PJ. Tucker's testicles,

415
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 5: no doubt about it.

416
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:33,119
Speaker 2: Why guys, why do guys do that? That's what I've done.

417
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 5: On the toe because you're a guard and you get

418
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,920
Speaker 5: picked off, and there's that's He was like, you didn't

419
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:39,879
Speaker 5: notice when he did it? Live right, He's trying to

420
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:42,720
Speaker 5: do it slyly and he got by like he did

421
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:43,360
Speaker 5: get by.

422
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:46,400
Speaker 3: Unless if they did, if p J. Tucker didn't go up.

423
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 5: To him, then reviews yeah, because it was.

424
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:51,960
Speaker 2: It was an offensive fail on TUCKA was the call

425
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:55,520
Speaker 2: he screened? He said it would have just been that.

426
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 2: But but I mean the one we thought Chris Pole

427
00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,320
Speaker 2: that tried referred to there on Ben McLamore, Okay, actually

428
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 2: in the nuts, it's like, what are you doing?

429
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,399
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, obviously I don't think that one to me

430
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:08,520
Speaker 1: was not intentional. That was the classic push off. Yes,

431
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:11,159
Speaker 1: like I'm creating room and I hit you in the nuts.

432
00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:12,680
Speaker 1: I could have hit you in the stomach. I could

433
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:14,480
Speaker 1: have hit you. You're right, and he goes too low

434
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:18,199
Speaker 1: and he gets him. Yeah, I just don't think that

435
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,120
Speaker 1: one was inotential. This one does seem a lot more.

436
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 1: You're right, it's like I'm gonna send a little bit

437
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:23,440
Speaker 1: of a message. You're like moving on the screen here.

438
00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:25,199
Speaker 1: You're obviously gonna try and lay me out. All right,

439
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:27,320
Speaker 1: I'll come up and upper cut you and hopefully he

440
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:28,880
Speaker 1: doesn't get caught. And it didn't, like you guys said,

441
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:30,000
Speaker 1: unless PJA reacts.

442
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 5: So you know that's how impart Dennis Shrudter is. Though

443
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 5: it's wild. Yeah, this was a three point game at

444
00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:39,480
Speaker 5: half the way lou Dort was chucking the way shay

445
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:41,480
Speaker 5: Yaillis Alexander had an opher in the first quarter, of

446
00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 5: the way Gallinari had an opher in the first quarter.

447
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 5: But they fight back because Shrewder had a nineteen point

448
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 5: first half, and then they have basically as many turnovers

449
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:52,760
Speaker 5: in the third quarter as the Rockets did the whole game,

450
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 5: and we got to praise the Rockets for only having

451
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:58,160
Speaker 5: eleven turnovers throughout the game. James Harden's line is ridiculous,

452
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 5: shooting eleven to fifteen. But okay, so he just gave

453
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:03,720
Speaker 5: it away over and over again that one quarter, and

454
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:05,640
Speaker 5: so it would have been hard to come back, even

455
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:11,200
Speaker 5: with Dennis Shrewder him being their best player this whole series. Yeah,

456
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:13,440
Speaker 5: I'm totally being selfish that I want to see him back.

457
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 5: If he gets suspended, that would be understandable. It would

458
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 5: be understandable because it's you that you're playing basketball, you're

459
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 5: getting picked. You can't hit somebody's testicles because you're frustrated.

460
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 5: It's just I mean, and he was probably frustrated with

461
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 5: this team. But at the same time, Yeah, Larry Luke,

462
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:35,240
Speaker 5: thank you for that callback, for saying that this is

463
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:40,000
Speaker 5: his second shot to somebody's testicles, because it is, it's becoming.

464
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:43,400
Speaker 5: If it's a habit, he's going to get reputation suspensions.

465
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,560
Speaker 1: Well, but again the cousins one's more of a honk.

466
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:47,320
Speaker 1: Is it worse to honk or is it worse to

467
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:51,040
Speaker 1: punch the exacting anything.

468
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:52,960
Speaker 4: Don't hit people in the nuts, don't welk them in

469
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 4: the nuts, solved.

470
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:57,240
Speaker 1: In the nuts.

471
00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:59,240
Speaker 6: When was the last time you got hit in the nuts?

472
00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:01,240
Speaker 6: You're always and it's fine for guys to get hitting

473
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 6: the nuts. It makes me think it's been thirty years.

474
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,320
Speaker 1: Probably has. Yeah, I mean, I'm too quick. You can't

475
00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:08,760
Speaker 1: hit me in the nuts? When was the last time

476
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:11,200
Speaker 1: I think playing baseball? Probably taking a baseball to the

477
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:12,440
Speaker 1: nuts is the last time I took it.

478
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:13,560
Speaker 4: So it's been a long time.

479
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:17,000
Speaker 6: Guards through the baseball big guys always hitting big guys

480
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:17,640
Speaker 6: in the nuts too.

481
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 4: You notice that, right, it's never a guard hitting another guard.

482
00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:23,160
Speaker 1: In the nuts. Well, wait, who did Chris Paul pop?

483
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 4: He's a four?

484
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 1: He's a four for the Rockets. Everybody's a big on

485
00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:31,200
Speaker 1: the Rockets. Maybe that's the loophole Chris Paul's figured out. Yeah,

486
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:33,280
Speaker 1: all right, So well we'll see whether they get it

487
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:35,160
Speaker 1: or not they get a game. I don't think they will,

488
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,040
Speaker 1: but it may not matter anyway. I mean, it matters

489
00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,080
Speaker 1: to the Thunder. But I mean, even if shooters playing,

490
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,359
Speaker 1: they're gonna need better performances from all of their guys

491
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:45,359
Speaker 1: to give us a Game seven. And the Rockets, of

492
00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:47,640
Speaker 1: course have Westbrook back, and like Trey said, he should

493
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:49,680
Speaker 1: probably feel a little bit better for Game six, maybe

494
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:52,920
Speaker 1: even gets more minutes. Who knows. All right, let's quickly

495
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,119
Speaker 1: get to the second game that I want to touch on.

496
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:57,080
Speaker 1: We'll get to the Bucks Magic before we set up

497
00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 1: the Bucks Heat second round series. But Lebron and Ad

498
00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:02,679
Speaker 1: advance with the one thirty one to one twenty two

499
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:06,119
Speaker 1: victory over the Blazers in the nightcap, No, Damian Lillard,

500
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 1: McCollum put up a fight, Mellow put up a fight.

501
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:13,240
Speaker 1: Just too much Lebron and Ad Trey in the end, yeah,

502
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:15,200
Speaker 1: one hundred percent too much Lebron and Ad.

503
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:19,080
Speaker 6: They combined for seventy nine points forty three for Davis.

504
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,320
Speaker 6: That's his best in the postseason so far. He had

505
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 6: eleven straight in the fourth quarter that really put the

506
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:27,240
Speaker 6: game away. Lebron was splendid again, thirty six, ten and ten.

507
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:30,880
Speaker 6: Some crazy passes he was thrown last night. He looked

508
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:34,119
Speaker 6: locked in setting up the highlight assists and KCP actually

509
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,240
Speaker 6: had a pretty nice game. Four threes, hit, a couple

510
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:38,760
Speaker 6: of clutch ones, I thought. But honestly, to me, this game,

511
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:40,920
Speaker 6: the main thing I took away was major shout out

512
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 6: to the Blazers. They're all wearing headbands out there to

513
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:44,320
Speaker 6: honor Cliff Robinson.

514
00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:44,879
Speaker 4: That was great.

515
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:49,560
Speaker 6: Down to nine players with injuries to Lillard, Collins, little Gabriel.

516
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:51,960
Speaker 6: They ran out two guys named Jalen that I had

517
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,680
Speaker 6: never heard of. There are two guys named Jalen suddenly

518
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:57,280
Speaker 6: playing playoff minutes for the Blazers, but they never quit.

519
00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:58,399
Speaker 4: Thirty six for CJ.

520
00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:02,359
Speaker 6: McCollum playing on a broken back, huge minutes, mellow twenty

521
00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,240
Speaker 6: seven in forty minutes, and nice games from Gary Trent

522
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 6: and Anthony Simons. Anthony Simons. Sorry, they competed all night.

523
00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:11,480
Speaker 6: They trailed by fourteen and the third they battled back.

524
00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:13,440
Speaker 6: They tied it in the fourth. It was a fun game.

525
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:15,920
Speaker 6: It just came down to the fact that one team

526
00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:19,119
Speaker 6: had two All NBA players and the All NBA player

527
00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 6: for the Blazers was back home. But you know, it

528
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 6: was a fun It was a fun bubble for Portland,

529
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:28,600
Speaker 6: and even the way it ended with no Lillard, they

530
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:30,480
Speaker 6: still really showed up to play last night.

531
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:31,360
Speaker 1: Absolutely.

532
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's really all you can sort of take, I

533
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,040
Speaker 2: think from this game. In the first half, it was close,

534
00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:38,240
Speaker 2: and it just sort of felt like that Lakers were like, how,

535
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,200
Speaker 2: we're gonna have to actually try in this second half

536
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:42,320
Speaker 2: just to finish this game off, because you know, coming

537
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,480
Speaker 2: in without Lilid, you can understand if the Lakers thought

538
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 2: we're probably gonna blow this team out. They're going home tomorrow.

539
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:48,680
Speaker 2: This is the end of their season. But it wasn't

540
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:50,600
Speaker 2: that way at all. You know, they fought and a

541
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:53,080
Speaker 2: credit to Terry Stotts to get his team. They always

542
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,400
Speaker 2: play hard, even when they're out class as they were

543
00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:58,520
Speaker 2: last night. And yeah, it's a tough end for the

544
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:01,239
Speaker 2: Blazers because they had such a great bub and you know,

545
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:04,239
Speaker 2: hopefully next season they are back to where they were

546
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 2: because without Nurkic for the most of this season, they

547
00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:09,199
Speaker 2: clearly missed him and they're clearly a better team when

548
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:11,640
Speaker 2: he's on the floor. So when you have the three

549
00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:14,919
Speaker 2: of Milk, McCollum, Lillard and Nurkic, you know that's a

550
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,360
Speaker 2: good three foundation pieces there. So if they can get

551
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 2: some other players around them for Gary Trent can continue

552
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:22,840
Speaker 2: the bubble season that he had, then there's some things

553
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:25,080
Speaker 2: to be excited for in Portland. But on this night,

554
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:27,280
Speaker 2: on this occasion, you just sort of felt that the

555
00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:29,960
Speaker 2: Lakers had this game whenever they really wanted it, and

556
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:31,720
Speaker 2: in the second half it took a bit of a

557
00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:34,080
Speaker 2: push from them, but they just got there in the end.

558
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, tass, you weren't that far off with your mellow

559
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,879
Speaker 1: going for forty prediction, h that was you there eight

560
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,840
Speaker 1: the other day at twenty seven. But McCollum too, I mean, god,

561
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,000
Speaker 1: that guy was go went down with a fight. He

562
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,000
Speaker 1: was attacking like three guys inside at times and somehow

563
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:52,240
Speaker 1: flipping it up and the thing would dropped. Just put

564
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 1: up a hell of an effort. But yeah, Ad went down,

565
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:55,800
Speaker 1: and when he went on that eleven or run, it

566
00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,480
Speaker 1: was game because it was close. I mean the Blazers, yeah,

567
00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:01,359
Speaker 1: I think you're right. I think the Laker were like, yeah,

568
00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:03,640
Speaker 1: they'll probably at one point here they'll just roll over

569
00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:05,480
Speaker 1: and die and they want to go home, and they

570
00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:07,520
Speaker 1: just wouldn't and then you're yeah, they were like, damn,

571
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:09,320
Speaker 1: we got to play hard. I thought Caruso made some

572
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 1: great defensive plays late in that game too, to spark

573
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,120
Speaker 1: a bit of that Lakers run. But to ask anything

574
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:14,480
Speaker 1: to add to.

575
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,160
Speaker 5: This one, well, the Lakers are the Lakers. I think

576
00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:18,879
Speaker 5: that's what we should take from the first round. They

577
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 5: got better as the series went on and they realized, yeah, Damian.

578
00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:23,400
Speaker 3: Low is not in this game.

579
00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:24,760
Speaker 5: We can just close it out when we want to

580
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,679
Speaker 5: close it out, and they ended up doing that despite

581
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 5: the great fight from CJ. Nice to see him play

582
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 5: the way he's capable of playing and all the other

583
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:36,560
Speaker 5: guys playing up to their potential. But the Lakers that

584
00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:38,760
Speaker 5: we were worried about after Game one and after all

585
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:44,240
Speaker 5: the seeding games have got Yeah, Anthony Davis playing ridiculous basketball.

586
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:47,000
Speaker 5: He's hitting He had sixty eight percent from mid range

587
00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:50,480
Speaker 5: this round when he was thirty five percent in the

588
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:53,800
Speaker 5: regular season. Is that just a little bit of bad

589
00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:56,399
Speaker 5: luck for the Blazers, bad matchups or is ad just

590
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:58,200
Speaker 5: stepping up to the moment. I think it's a bit

591
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:01,199
Speaker 5: of the latterly. He is playing to his capabillit as

592
00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:04,919
Speaker 5: he has been pushed to the number one spot by Lebron.

593
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:06,800
Speaker 5: He's trying to push him, and I think Anthony Davis

594
00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:09,480
Speaker 5: is really living up to the moment, and Lebron and

595
00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:12,840
Speaker 5: the leadership on that team is pushing guys like Caruso

596
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:17,040
Speaker 5: who's playing great defensively, KCP who's playing great defensively. They

597
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,239
Speaker 5: didn't really miss Avery Bradley and Kyle Kuzma as well.

598
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:20,320
Speaker 5: So they've got a team now.

599
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:21,680
Speaker 3: And it was.

600
00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:24,520
Speaker 5: Something that people were questioning, you know, like ten days ago,

601
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:26,520
Speaker 5: but they look like the Lakers.

602
00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 1: And Lebron didn't wait around to give us the Chadwick Boseman,

603
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,919
Speaker 1: you know, salute the Waconda forever in the pregame. We

604
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:34,359
Speaker 1: thought you might do it after a big shot or

605
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 1: big big dunk or something like that, but he does

606
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,480
Speaker 1: a pregram drops it there at he's taking a knee

607
00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 1: and tasks. I just wanted to say too. I know

608
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 1: you must have liked this. The Lakers announced before the

609
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,720
Speaker 1: game that Staple Center will serve as a voting center

610
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:47,760
Speaker 1: for the upcoming general election, and you can cast your

611
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:50,200
Speaker 1: ballots at the arena from October thirtieth to November third,

612
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:51,600
Speaker 1: and you can use it as a drop off site

613
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:53,200
Speaker 1: too for ballots. I know you've been sort of keeping

614
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:54,159
Speaker 1: track of that on Twitter.

615
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:58,400
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, everybody's gonna do it all. Twenty nine arenas

616
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:00,359
Speaker 5: are going to end up having it. It be in

617
00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:04,200
Speaker 5: their arenas or their practice facilities. Rules, so many rules

618
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:07,720
Speaker 5: in counties. Oh yeah, the Raptors, you're right, that doesn't matter.

619
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 2: But one are the Celtics, Well what are the Celtics doing?

620
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:14,119
Speaker 2: Because I saw they said they can't use that arena

621
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 2: for some reason.

622
00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:17,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a lot of different county rules.

623
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 5: I'm not sure, but the Pistons, for instance, aren't offering

624
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:25,560
Speaker 5: the arena, but they're allowing their practice facility as an option. Yeah,

625
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:27,359
Speaker 5: there are worker outs. Sometimes you can't do it on

626
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:29,879
Speaker 5: election day. You can only do it for early voting

627
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:33,359
Speaker 5: in a couple weeks prior. So many frickin' rules, But

628
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:36,640
Speaker 5: the fact is that they everybody signed up to try

629
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,600
Speaker 5: and offer, you know, the large space. That only makes

630
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:43,159
Speaker 5: sense and hopefully it'll be the case going forward. It

631
00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 5: makes sense now because in November there's no basketball, but

632
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:50,119
Speaker 5: hopefully even though those arenas will be occupied, they just

633
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:53,480
Speaker 5: shut everything down. Election Day should just be a national holiday.

634
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:56,800
Speaker 5: Shut it all down. Everybody gets the day off work,

635
00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:59,520
Speaker 5: and those those facilities should be available.

636
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:00,840
Speaker 3: Makes sense, And it was.

637
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:02,480
Speaker 1: Really cool with all of these games to see the

638
00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 1: NBA hold a moment of silence for Cliff Robinson and

639
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:07,880
Speaker 1: Lute Olson and Chadwick Boseman. As we talked about there

640
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 1: prior to the start of the games. Those video boards

641
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:13,800
Speaker 1: that's when they came in Hyeah used fantastically. It just looks,

642
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:15,800
Speaker 1: it looks, you know, it looked really cool with all

643
00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 1: the guys taking a knee to there and the three

644
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:20,920
Speaker 1: three people that passed behind them look pretty impressive. All Right,

645
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:23,760
Speaker 1: we are going to get to the Bucks Magic Game

646
00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:25,480
Speaker 1: and then we'll get to the second round series with

647
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:28,440
Speaker 1: their Dance with the Heat. But first quick word from

Speaker 5: Even if Burrows stuff is super easy to assemble and

662
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:34,880
Speaker 5: wouldn't give us financial anxiety because it costs is so reasonable.

Speaker 1: Oh no.

705
00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:21,000
Speaker 2: Well it's funny because you know, many people thought that

706
00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 2: incident between PJ Tucker and Dennis Shuder last night was

707
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 2: a bad tempered scuffle, but I've actually heard from someone

708
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,720
Speaker 2: down in the bubble that it was quite the opposite.

709
00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:31,000
Speaker 2: When Dennis lowered his arm on PJ screen, he was

710
00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 2: just checking to see what Manscape products PJ users. Turns

711
00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 2: out it was the lawnmower three point zero, because that's

712
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:39,520
Speaker 2: the best hygiene tool for the muddern Man, which makes

713
00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:42,720
Speaker 2: sense PJ is mudder Man. And when PJ appeared to

714
00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:46,480
Speaker 2: head butt Dennis, uh huh, it was quite a noisy game,

715
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:48,760
Speaker 2: and PJ was just letting Dennis know that they actually

716
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:51,320
Speaker 2: just released Manscape just released their Shear's two point zero

717
00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:54,760
Speaker 2: nail kit, which is the perfect add on their lawnmower

718
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:57,120
Speaker 2: three point oh trimmer because the Shears two point zero

719
00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:01,200
Speaker 2: is a luxury four piece nail kit featuring tempered stainless

720
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 2: steel tools which kind of matched Dennis's hair there, and

721
00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:09,800
Speaker 2: it includes slashed tipped sweet tweezers, rounded points, sissor's fingernail clippers,

722
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:11,959
Speaker 2: and a medium grit nail file. Now you're in the bubble,

723
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:14,120
Speaker 2: you know you want to order all that stuff or

724
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:15,920
Speaker 2: do you just want someone to send you that down

725
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:17,760
Speaker 2: in one big kit. I think that's what you want,

726
00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:19,280
Speaker 2: isn't it, because you got you know, you can't chew

727
00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 2: your fingernails. Yeah. Anyway, the only reason they got ejected

728
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:25,680
Speaker 2: was because PJ had run out of the crop Preserver,

729
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,720
Speaker 2: which is an anti chafing ball the odor, and Denna said, hey,

730
00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 2: I have some spare back in my locker room, and

731
00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:33,640
Speaker 2: PJ was like, well, can you give me some now,

732
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 2: And Dennis said sure, because the crop preserver is different

733
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:40,600
Speaker 2: to the crop reviver. That's the spray on tona which

734
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 2: you need after a game, of course, when you know

735
00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:45,520
Speaker 2: you've been out there going at it against your fellow

736
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:49,440
Speaker 2: opponents and teammates, and it's made with that soothing aloe

737
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 2: and which he is extracts. Oh my god, that's so fun.

738
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 2: It smells soap. It's so much fun to rub on

739
00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:56,720
Speaker 2: there and spray on and everything.

740
00:33:58,160 --> 00:33:58,680

748
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 1: Just there was a shot actually of James Harden on

749
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:28,400
Speaker 1: the bench. At one point I noticed his nails looked immaculate.

750
00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:30,719
Speaker 1: So I think he got himself his hands on this

751
00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:33,960
Speaker 1: new kit there from man Skaers. Yeah, they looked incredible.

752
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,640
Speaker 2: Hey, Lebron sometimes gets the nail clippers out on the

753
00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:37,399
Speaker 2: bench there as well.

754
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:40,080
Speaker 1: So yeah, because well you used to chew them, that's right,

755
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:40,680
Speaker 1: and you want.

756
00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:42,720
Speaker 2: To do them no bad habit, bad habit.

757
00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:45,120
Speaker 1: Did you used to chew your nails? Yeah?

758
00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:47,319
Speaker 2: I look to be honest, sometimes I do from time

759
00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:49,399
Speaker 2: to time. Yeah, so yeah, you know it's because it's

760
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:51,800
Speaker 2: just especially after you clip them, you know, when you

761
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:53,440
Speaker 2: just got to sort of tighten them up a little bit.

762
00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:55,320
Speaker 2: You sort of brain and then it sort of leads.

763
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:56,360
Speaker 2: One thing leads to another.

764
00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:58,279
Speaker 1: Here's a trick. Put some of the bold you order

765
00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:02,560
Speaker 1: in on your f Don't do that. Don't do that.

766
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:06,080
Speaker 1: All right, let's get back into the games here. The

767
00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:08,439
Speaker 1: Bucks defeated the Magic one to eighteen one oh four.

768
00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:12,280
Speaker 1: They take the series in five games. It's a douchebag sweep.

769
00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:14,680
Speaker 1: I forgot to point that out with the Blazer's Lakers

770
00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:18,480
Speaker 1: series there too. This was wild. I decided to go

771
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:20,279
Speaker 1: for a quick run when the Bucks had built the

772
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 1: lead to like twenty plus points in the in the

773
00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:25,759
Speaker 1: second half there, and I walked back in the door

774
00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:27,880
Speaker 1: and the Magic suddenly have it to three, and I'm like,

775
00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:29,160
Speaker 1: what the heck? And I was like, okay, I gotta

776
00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:30,799
Speaker 1: take a quick shower, get that ball deodor in on,

777
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:32,840
Speaker 1: and then the lead was back to twelve. And I

778
00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:35,280
Speaker 1: actually put the game on the radio in the shower

779
00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:36,800
Speaker 1: because I was like, Okay, this one must just be

780
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:38,440
Speaker 1: you know, it's close. It was like seven minutes ago

781
00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:38,839
Speaker 1: or something.

782
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:40,240
Speaker 3: Radio.

783
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:41,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was great. And then you know, I think,

784
00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:43,920
Speaker 1: you know, Marvin Williams was knocking down some threes and

785
00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:45,600
Speaker 1: they built that back to twelve and then it was

786
00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:47,600
Speaker 1: sort of sort of over. It's a game of runs.

787
00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:50,640
Speaker 1: But Magic put up a fight. They just did, you know,

788
00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:54,359
Speaker 1: missing a million wings and no one's playing for them.

789
00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:57,640
Speaker 1: So this is now the third time, guys, The Magic,

790
00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:01,520
Speaker 1: in their last three playoff appearances have done the douchebag

791
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:04,759
Speaker 1: sweetly wow. Three times in a row. They won game,

792
00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:07,320
Speaker 1: won and lost the next four twenty twelve versus the Pacers,

793
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:09,400
Speaker 1: last year versus the Raptors, and now this year versus

794
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,560
Speaker 1: the Bucks. Crazy anything to add from this game before

795
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:14,000
Speaker 1: we get to the heat Bucks or you just want

796
00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:16,319
Speaker 1: to jump right to that there. Yeah, you're making a

797
00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:17,000
Speaker 1: funny face.

798
00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:19,560
Speaker 2: Here, like this wasn't a fun series. Let's be honest.

799
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:21,520
Speaker 2: Even when The Magic won that first game, we knew

800
00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:24,080
Speaker 2: exactly how it was going to play out. Just not

801
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:26,160
Speaker 2: a fun series, Like I'm glad to get to the

802
00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:30,680
Speaker 2: second round because this one is gonna be a fun series.

803
00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:35,280
Speaker 5: They did fight, The Magic did fight. Yeah, I literally,

804
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:35,520
Speaker 5: I know.

805
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:38,160
Speaker 3: I know. The outcome was inevitable. There's no doubt.

806
00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:40,360
Speaker 5: What I want to talk about in this series is

807
00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:43,920
Speaker 5: the Orlando Magic players have to leave the bubble immediately.

808
00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:47,160
Speaker 5: They're going like ten to fifteen to twenty minutes down

809
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:49,040
Speaker 5: the road to their house and they're out of the bubble.

810
00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:53,280
Speaker 5: I wonder if you're, especially like a young player like MARKL. Fultz,

811
00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:56,000
Speaker 5: after a couple of weeks, you're at home during this

812
00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 5: COVID situation, you're doing nothing. Do you go back to

813
00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:02,759
Speaker 5: the bubble to watch some NBA playoff section? Do you

814
00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:05,040
Speaker 5: go back in quarantine for four days to be able

815
00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:07,879
Speaker 5: to watch the NBA Finals in person? I think it's

816
00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:10,600
Speaker 5: a fair question, especially during these times. I wonder if

817
00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:11,680
Speaker 5: anybody goes back.

818
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:14,840
Speaker 1: M not sure that's legal, but I like that, Like

819
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:16,719
Speaker 1: you're thinking, you're right, what else are you doing at home?

820
00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:17,560
Speaker 1: Who knows?

821
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:17,759
Speaker 3: OK?

822
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:20,440
Speaker 6: Yeah, weren't they saying basically that Folts lives so close

823
00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:22,160
Speaker 6: he can text his mom to just have him bring

824
00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:24,759
Speaker 6: stuff over. So yeah, maybe he sticks around. He's like,

825
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:26,560
Speaker 6: the fishing is great here. I've got a lot of

826
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:29,120
Speaker 6: time during the day, rip some lips and Mom, just

827
00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:30,840
Speaker 6: us send over some brownies or something.

828
00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:33,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, ayme, maybe we'll stay. Maybe they'll allow him to stay.

829
00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:36,200
Speaker 1: I can't imagine they'll let you leave and come back

830
00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:39,120
Speaker 1: if you're not on somebody's list. But yeah, if you said, hey,

831
00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:40,879
Speaker 1: I just want to stay, I'll pay for my own room.

832
00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:44,120
Speaker 1: I really, I'm really into these series moving forward here. Yeah,

833
00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:46,160
Speaker 1: maybe folts can stay. Okay, So let's get to the

834
00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:49,480
Speaker 1: Bucks Heat game one tips Monday at six thirty pm

835
00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:50,360
Speaker 1: Eastern on TNT.

836
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:50,680
Speaker 3: Now.

837
00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:55,439
Speaker 1: Miami won two of the three meetings from Milwaukee back

838
00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:57,920
Speaker 1: in October then in March, so sort of bookend the

839
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:01,160
Speaker 1: regular season there. But the Bucks won the August sixth

840
00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:04,520
Speaker 1: seating game, though Jimmy Butler didn't play and Gordon Drags

841
00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:06,719
Speaker 1: didn't play in that one, so he'd have had some

842
00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:08,920
Speaker 1: success against you know, the Bucks in the regular season

843
00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:12,279
Speaker 1: way back when. Before we get to our keys here,

844
00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:14,719
Speaker 1: I just wanted to point this out. Saw the video

845
00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:17,279
Speaker 1: on NBA dot com this morning. It said inside the NBA,

846
00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:21,920
Speaker 1: the guys, TNT guys heat Bucks Series look ahead. Okay,

847
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:24,399
Speaker 1: I'll click on this, I'll see what they said. This

848
00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:28,120
Speaker 1: was the video, guys. It was started with Shaq Karate

849
00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:30,920
Speaker 1: kicking a piece of wood in half. Okay, these are

850
00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:33,480
Speaker 1: the keys to the heat Bucks series starts with this

851
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:36,759
Speaker 1: whole bit. It was very funny. Shack like, no problem,

852
00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:39,239
Speaker 1: just kicking it appeared to be like a two by four.

853
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:42,520
Speaker 1: He chopped it and have his big old foot. Then

854
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:45,160
Speaker 1: Chuck said they got to the series. Chuck said, quote,

855
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,839
Speaker 1: I need to see the matchups first, but listen, it

856
00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:55,520
Speaker 1: doesn't matter about the matchups. That was odd exact quote.

857
00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:57,640
Speaker 1: And everyone was like, you just said you got to

858
00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:00,040
Speaker 1: see them and it doesn't matter, so which one is it?

859
00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:03,840
Speaker 1: And then you know the cherry on top of this video,

860
00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:09,400
Speaker 1: Chuck called Eric Bledsoe, Eric Randolph or Eric Rudolph. I

861
00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 1: don't know Eric, a pretty rude, prominent player in this series,

862
00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:16,880
Speaker 1: Eric Bledsoe, but Emmy Award winning Chuck called him Eric

863
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:20,759
Speaker 1: rand or Eric Rudolf, and then it was laughing because

864
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:23,000
Speaker 1: he sort of knew he messed up. Anyway, I love

865
00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:25,360
Speaker 1: that video. Go check it out. What a breakdown I

866
00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:27,319
Speaker 1: hope ours is a little bit better, but maybe not.

867
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:30,600
Speaker 1: Keys to the series task, Heat, Bucks, what are you

868
00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:31,040
Speaker 1: looking at?

869
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:35,120
Speaker 5: I think the TNT guys are starting to get extra delirious,

870
00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:37,719
Speaker 5: just like we are a little bit doing shows every

871
00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:40,200
Speaker 5: day here. But I'll just come out and say it,

872
00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:44,520
Speaker 5: I'm taking the Heat. I oh yeah. I think that

873
00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:48,840
Speaker 5: the Bucks have not been convincing whatsoever in their five games,

874
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:53,000
Speaker 5: while the Heat were solid every single night, especially defensively.

875
00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:57,320
Speaker 5: And I think the Heat will slow down Milwaukee's supporting players. Yiannis,

876
00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:01,759
Speaker 5: He's going to be great. He was thirty sixteen and

877
00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:05,560
Speaker 5: six thirty points, sixteen boards, and six assists in that

878
00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:07,840
Speaker 5: first round, shooting nearly sixty percent. But I think the

879
00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:10,319
Speaker 5: Heat have a better matchup for him in bam At

880
00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:12,000
Speaker 5: of Bio. But I'm not gonna say that they're gonna

881
00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:15,319
Speaker 5: slow him down because he's too good. But beyond that,

882
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:17,960
Speaker 5: this Heat defense, I think is gonna slow down Chris Middleton,

883
00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:20,200
Speaker 5: who's supposed to be the number two guy, supposed to

884
00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:22,480
Speaker 5: be the All Star. He didn't have a great first round.

885
00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:25,319
Speaker 5: They tried to get him going fifteen points thirty six

886
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:27,759
Speaker 5: percent from the floor, and he's gonna have Jimmy Butler on.

887
00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:29,840
Speaker 3: Him, is Brook Lopez, who was.

888
00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 5: A little bit more reliable in that first round, going

889
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:33,960
Speaker 5: to be able to step up. I don't like seeing

890
00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:38,279
Speaker 5: this roster go eleven deep with Yeah, Marvin Williams and

891
00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:41,080
Speaker 5: Kyle Korver can be on your bench, but if you're

892
00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:42,880
Speaker 5: two and three guys aren't getting the ball enough and

893
00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:45,799
Speaker 5: aren't producing, then I don't think it matters. And I

894
00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:47,640
Speaker 5: think the three point shooting is going to be better

895
00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:49,480
Speaker 5: for the Miami Heat. I think that's going to beat

896
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:52,880
Speaker 5: the Bucks. And I don't know what's going on.

897
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:55,120
Speaker 3: We've taught. We've heard a lot about the.

898
00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:59,280
Speaker 5: Mental capacity for these guys, the mental fatigue, the mental struggle. Listen,

899
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:04,520
Speaker 5: sometimes the Bucks players not having that home court advantage,

900
00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:05,920
Speaker 5: it could be affecting them. And I'm not giving them

901
00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:08,319
Speaker 5: an excuse or anything, but I'm just saying the way

902
00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:11,879
Speaker 5: they're playing does not look anything like the Milwaukee team

903
00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:13,960
Speaker 5: that played at home and was on whatever it was

904
00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:17,720
Speaker 5: at sixty six win pace. Maybe Chris Middleton doesn't feel

905
00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:20,320
Speaker 5: like it's like home because he doesn't look like himself whatsoever.

906
00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:22,320
Speaker 5: While a guy on the other side like Gore and

907
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:25,680
Speaker 5: Dragic for the Miami heat who's been an incredible score.

908
00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:28,799
Speaker 5: Maybe he does feel it like it's like home, even

909
00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:30,640
Speaker 5: more so at home than when he plays in Miami,

910
00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 5: because he's hanging out with all his Balkan bros, all

911
00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:37,120
Speaker 5: the guys for the former Yugoslavia, the Yugosphere. Look at

912
00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:40,239
Speaker 5: all these dudes. He's hanging out with, Bobon and the

913
00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:44,080
Speaker 5: Joker at Luca. Maybe he feels great while some of

914
00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:47,040
Speaker 5: the Bucks don't feel all that good. I just cannot

915
00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:49,319
Speaker 5: just jump to the conclusion that the Bucks were going

916
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:50,480
Speaker 5: to play great all of a sudden.

917
00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:52,719
Speaker 3: So that's it. That's it.

918
00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:55,720
Speaker 5: I'm not buying in to the supporting cast of the Bucks.

919
00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:58,880
Speaker 1: Okay, so you're expecting more of an Eric Randolph than

920
00:41:58,920 --> 00:41:59,200
Speaker 1: an Area.

921
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:02,759
Speaker 5: I didn't even mention him because I don't think if

922
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:05,160
Speaker 5: you're if you're relying on Eric Bledsoe, who hasn't been

923
00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:08,920
Speaker 5: able to prove it playoff after playoff, then that's a problem.

924
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:11,440
Speaker 1: Yeah he has moments, Yeah, you're you're right. The consistency

925
00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:13,640
Speaker 1: of a Middleton of Bledsoe, and I would throw in

926
00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:16,920
Speaker 1: a Brook Lopez and his shooting can be hit or

927
00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:19,640
Speaker 1: miss right at least has been in the bubble setting. Okay, Trey,

928
00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:21,080
Speaker 1: what about you? What are you zeroing in on?

929
00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:21,719
Speaker 3: Well?

930
00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:23,080
Speaker 6: You hit on its skeets. Is he going to be

931
00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:25,359
Speaker 6: Eric Randolph or is he going to be Eric Rudolph.

932
00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:27,799
Speaker 4: It's impossible to tell at this point. Now, I'm kidding uh.

933
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:30,040
Speaker 6: For the Heat to win this series, Jimmy Butler has

934
00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:33,720
Speaker 6: to be at worst the second best player, maybe after Giannis.

935
00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:34,600
Speaker 4: He's got to clearly be.

936
00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:36,719
Speaker 6: The best guy for the Heat because he is a

937
00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:39,600
Speaker 6: level ahead of Chris Middleton. But we need the full Jimmy.

938
00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:41,920
Speaker 6: The defense has to be there. He's got a limit Middleton,

939
00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:44,319
Speaker 6: which is something that Jimmy Butler certainly can do. You

940
00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:46,359
Speaker 6: got to get his points at the free throw line

941
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:49,480
Speaker 6: just to keep the scoreboard ticking. Over shot four for

942
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:53,240
Speaker 6: seven from three in in the series against the Pacers,

943
00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:55,400
Speaker 6: So maybe Jimmy Butler has found his three point shot.

944
00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:57,520
Speaker 6: I don't necessarily think that that's something you need to

945
00:42:57,560 --> 00:43:00,080
Speaker 6: rely on, but you do need Jimmy Butler putting pressure

946
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:02,600
Speaker 6: on the rim every single moment he's out there, because

947
00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:04,879
Speaker 6: that opens up the driving kick game for the Heat,

948
00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:06,400
Speaker 6: and that gets them a lot of open threes out

949
00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:08,920
Speaker 6: on the perimeter. Then when it's not cutting time. Jimmy's

950
00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:10,920
Speaker 6: got to pull a Manscape Dad and be the best

951
00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:13,040
Speaker 6: in the series. He's got to get the lawnmower three

952
00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:16,560
Speaker 6: point zero because he can be the best closer. You know,

953
00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:18,600
Speaker 6: it could be tough for a big guy like Giannis

954
00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:21,839
Speaker 6: to be a closer because sometimes he can't get an

955
00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:24,400
Speaker 6: entry pass or they're laying off him trying to challenge

956
00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:26,920
Speaker 6: him to shoot from outside. Jimmy Butler has been used

957
00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:29,000
Speaker 6: to having the ball out his hands in fourth quarters

958
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:31,120
Speaker 6: for a long time in this league, and we've seen

959
00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:33,400
Speaker 6: a couple of times already during the Bubble that he's

960
00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:35,239
Speaker 6: he's shown up in the fourth and won a game

961
00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:35,680
Speaker 6: for the Heat.

962
00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:37,200
Speaker 4: So Butler's got to be huge.

963
00:43:37,239 --> 00:43:40,399
Speaker 6: Butler's got a He's got an almost match Giannis if

964
00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:44,279
Speaker 6: not just severely outplay Chris Middleton if Miami gets a

965
00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:45,160
Speaker 6: win in this series.

966
00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:48,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, this one's tough because are we are we like

967
00:43:48,680 --> 00:43:50,960
Speaker 1: collectively and some people I'm seeing on Twitter, are we

968
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:53,600
Speaker 1: putting too much stock into like what we've seen in

969
00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:56,000
Speaker 1: the bubble setting right with the Heat playing the way

970
00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:58,239
Speaker 1: they are, the Bucks sort of struggling, and are we

971
00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:01,919
Speaker 1: forgetting you know that that unbelievable Bucks team we saw

972
00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:04,439
Speaker 1: from the regular season like that had the sixty six

973
00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:07,640
Speaker 1: win piece Bucks. I just wonder like is there a

974
00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:09,759
Speaker 1: happy medium? Does it matter at all? Like, Oh, that's

975
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:11,600
Speaker 1: all news, It's what's happening right now. How are you

976
00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:14,080
Speaker 1: playing right now? So Lee, where do you what do

977
00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:15,520
Speaker 1: you think about that? And then what are you watching

978
00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:16,120
Speaker 1: in this series?

979
00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:18,120
Speaker 2: I mean that that's how it feels though right now.

980
00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:21,239
Speaker 2: Because the Miami Heat shot forty percent on threes in

981
00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:23,279
Speaker 2: their first round sweep of Indiana, who you know, they

982
00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:26,600
Speaker 2: didn't blow them out. Indiana were a reasonable competitive team

983
00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:29,640
Speaker 2: against them, but then against the Bucks during those three games,

984
00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:32,840
Speaker 2: the Heat shot forty four percent in those three games

985
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:34,640
Speaker 2: on eighteen threes a game. And the reason I'm pointing

986
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:36,640
Speaker 2: this out is because Milwaukee give up that three point

987
00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:38,880
Speaker 2: shot and Miami have got guys who can shoot it.

988
00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:41,839
Speaker 2: You know, Duncan, Romson Tyler here a crowd hit a couple,

989
00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:43,799
Speaker 2: Butler hit a couple. He doesn't shoot a lot of three.

990
00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:45,600
Speaker 2: Kelly Olynnock can come off the bench and hit threes.

991
00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:47,640
Speaker 2: And they've also got Kendrick Nunn, who played a handful

992
00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:49,560
Speaker 2: of minutes at the end. He can shoot threes. So

993
00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:51,440
Speaker 2: I think Miami is going to be like, well, if

994
00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:53,000
Speaker 2: you want to let us shoot threes, we are going

995
00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:55,120
Speaker 2: to shoot them as money as as we can, and

996
00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:57,319
Speaker 2: we're shooting them well, and we especially shoot them well

997
00:44:57,320 --> 00:44:59,680
Speaker 2: against the Milwaukee Bucks. So I like that, And I

998
00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:01,640
Speaker 2: also I think there's a couple of factors going against

999
00:45:01,719 --> 00:45:04,879
Speaker 2: Milwaukee in this series. Not having home court advantage then

1000
00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:07,280
Speaker 2: basically gives home court advantage to the Miami Heat because

1001
00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 2: it takes away that advantage that Milwaukee would have normally.

1002
00:45:10,640 --> 00:45:12,440
Speaker 2: And also there's a lot of pressure I think in

1003
00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:15,840
Speaker 2: this series on coach Budenholzer, because he's proven to be

1004
00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:18,480
Speaker 2: a very good regular season coach, but like last season

1005
00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:20,320
Speaker 2: in the playoffs when the Raptors changed things up, he

1006
00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:22,239
Speaker 2: didn't really have a counter and in the past with

1007
00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:24,279
Speaker 2: the Atlanta Hawks as well. Again, you know you can

1008
00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:26,560
Speaker 2: lose to a Lebron James team, but sort of bud

1009
00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:28,960
Speaker 2: gets to a point where a system works, and then

1010
00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:30,640
Speaker 2: if it doesn't work, he kind of is like, well,

1011
00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:33,239
Speaker 2: I don't really have anything else, So that's going to

1012
00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:35,000
Speaker 2: be something I'm going to watch in this series. So

1013
00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:38,120
Speaker 2: I think Miami's got lots to feel confident about again.

1014
00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:39,960
Speaker 2: You mentioned the two wins in the regular season, which

1015
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:42,040
Speaker 2: was like a lifetime ago. But they're going to feel

1016
00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:44,160
Speaker 2: confident they're going to play well against him. They have

1017
00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:46,719
Speaker 2: no injury concerns of no. Jimmy Butler, I think picked

1018
00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:48,600
Speaker 2: up a bit of a shoulder injury in that last series,

1019
00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:50,440
Speaker 2: but he's not gonna He's not going to use that

1020
00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:52,360
Speaker 2: as an excuse. He's going to play. They've got a

1021
00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:54,319
Speaker 2: closer in Butler, They've got a vet he can close

1022
00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:57,640
Speaker 2: out Middleton. So there's so many things to like about

1023
00:45:57,719 --> 00:45:59,960
Speaker 2: where the direction of where Miami has gone so far,

1024
00:46:00,680 --> 00:46:02,839
Speaker 2: compare it to way Milwaukee's being where it's like we're

1025
00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:06,000
Speaker 2: still waiting to see that team from the Bucks that

1026
00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:08,160
Speaker 2: we that were so impressive during the regular season. And

1027
00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:11,920
Speaker 2: I like Miami too. I think Miami's gonna feel very,

1028
00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:13,320
Speaker 2: very confident about this series.

1029
00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:16,600
Speaker 1: The other thing with Budenholzer, will he stop playing like

1030
00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:18,840
Speaker 1: ten to eleven guys like, will he go? Will he

1031
00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:21,160
Speaker 1: tighten up the rotation which you usually do in the

1032
00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:24,399
Speaker 1: playoffs and give Joannison Middleton forty minutes? You say no,

1033
00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:26,040
Speaker 1: he's still.

1034
00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:28,600
Speaker 5: I just I just don't think it's gonna happen. I

1035
00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:33,759
Speaker 5: think he loves the the democratic type of offense. Everybody

1036
00:46:33,800 --> 00:46:37,319
Speaker 5: gets a turn, everybody's gonna play. It doesn't seem like

1037
00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:40,719
Speaker 5: it's changing. I just don't see it happening right now.

1038
00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:43,680
Speaker 5: And I'm more worried about Jimmy Butler, you know, taking

1039
00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:46,560
Speaker 5: away Chris Middleton in a way he sort of took

1040
00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:50,080
Speaker 5: out TJ. Warren in the first round. Like Chris Middleton

1041
00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:53,719
Speaker 5: hasn't been able to step up to it, step up

1042
00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:56,000
Speaker 5: to the task here. And Jimmy Butler, if he's getting

1043
00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:58,480
Speaker 5: physical with Chris Middleton and takes him out of it,

1044
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:02,720
Speaker 5: that's that's a big problem. And then if they continue

1045
00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:05,400
Speaker 5: to play ten or eleven guys, Chris Middleton isn't.

1046
00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:06,280
Speaker 3: Going to get a lot of touches.

1047
00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:08,279
Speaker 5: And if he's you know, laying off a little bit,

1048
00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:11,000
Speaker 5: I think Brook Lopez is probably going to get more

1049
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:13,200
Speaker 5: shots than Chris Middleton, which is a little bonkers. But

1050
00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:15,640
Speaker 5: at least Brook is stepping up to the moment and

1051
00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:19,239
Speaker 5: shooting a ton. But yeah, it's it's worrisome. I think

1052
00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:22,000
Speaker 5: if if you're going so deep, it just doesn't make

1053
00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:23,160
Speaker 5: a whole lot of sense to me.

1054
00:47:23,960 --> 00:47:26,280
Speaker 1: Man, I can't wait to see how brook Lopez defends

1055
00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:28,800
Speaker 1: the heat offense though, because they've run a lot of

1056
00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:32,000
Speaker 1: dribble handoffs for their shooters, with Bam being the guy

1057
00:47:32,080 --> 00:47:34,480
Speaker 1: that's sort of like hands it off sets the pick.

1058
00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:36,319
Speaker 1: It's like, is brook Lopez going to get out on

1059
00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:39,800
Speaker 1: Duncan Robinson's and Tyler heroes and even if Jimmy's feeling

1060
00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:42,040
Speaker 1: it and drag it can hit the three. They run

1061
00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:44,640
Speaker 1: a lot of that and you're asking brook to be

1062
00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:47,600
Speaker 1: way out there. So that's you're right, Lee, Like will

1063
00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:50,839
Speaker 1: Budenholzer Like, well he goes small? Maybe he says brook

1064
00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:53,120
Speaker 1: Lopez on that end of the floor is not working.

1065
00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:54,399
Speaker 1: You know, you like what you can give he gives

1066
00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:56,080
Speaker 1: you on the offense, man, But like maybe it is

1067
00:47:56,120 --> 00:47:59,160
Speaker 1: more Giannis at the five and Marvin Williams as your

1068
00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:01,560
Speaker 1: other big like and I wouldn't be surprised if Spoe

1069
00:48:01,600 --> 00:48:04,279
Speaker 1: goes like to Kelly Olynnik as a shooting uh, you

1070
00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:07,760
Speaker 1: know big man out there too, So we'll yeah, Will

1071
00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:11,000
Speaker 1: Bud just like does he just dig in his heels

1072
00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:13,840
Speaker 1: like he's done before? Like, no, this gets us sixty

1073
00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:15,960
Speaker 1: plus wins in the regular season, and we're sticking with

1074
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:18,000
Speaker 1: it and our guys will come through, or does he

1075
00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:21,040
Speaker 1: like switch it up a bit? Do you leave Crowder

1076
00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:23,239
Speaker 1: like they're gonna give threes, But it's who you give

1077
00:48:23,239 --> 00:48:25,759
Speaker 1: the threes too, right, Like give Crowder the threes, give

1078
00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:28,120
Speaker 1: Igodala when he's out there the threes. Those guys can

1079
00:48:28,200 --> 00:48:30,839
Speaker 1: knock them down, but they're very, very streaky, and I'd

1080
00:48:30,920 --> 00:48:32,759
Speaker 1: rather them shooting a lot more than those other three

1081
00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:35,360
Speaker 1: guys in Hero, Robinson and Dragic just letting them go.

1082
00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:38,960
Speaker 1: But my key is is the Dragon because we talked

1083
00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:42,200
Speaker 1: about him all first round series, how just incredibly he

1084
00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:44,319
Speaker 1: looks in the opening round he was averaging twenty three,

1085
00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:47,200
Speaker 1: five and four, shooting nearly fifty percent from the floor

1086
00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:50,879
Speaker 1: forty one percent from three. He hit timely bucket after

1087
00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:54,719
Speaker 1: timely bucket. Yeah, Butler's the closer. Dragic is right there.

1088
00:48:54,800 --> 00:48:57,920
Speaker 1: If Butler's the hanky, Dragich is the Dwayne Ward because

1089
00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:01,960
Speaker 1: that guy has a right now. He is playing like

1090
00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:05,879
Speaker 1: Fiba Dragic. I've said that where he is just he's

1091
00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:08,799
Speaker 1: so in control and he's so damn crafty as it is.

1092
00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:10,600
Speaker 1: But the one thing the Bucks do well is with

1093
00:49:10,680 --> 00:49:13,120
Speaker 1: Giannis and Brook you're not scoring at the rim and

1094
00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:15,120
Speaker 1: that's fat. We'll be fascinating to see if Butler can

1095
00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:16,600
Speaker 1: try and score over them at the rim or get

1096
00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:18,680
Speaker 1: to the line. But Drugage doesn't go all the way

1097
00:49:18,719 --> 00:49:21,000
Speaker 1: to the rim. He does these little things where he

1098
00:49:21,080 --> 00:49:23,080
Speaker 1: just like the little floater or he stops on a

1099
00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:26,120
Speaker 1: dime and then does a little turnaround, and he's like,

1100
00:49:26,200 --> 00:49:28,360
Speaker 1: he doesn't really attack fully to the rim. He just

1101
00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:30,320
Speaker 1: gets to the paint where he's really really comfortable with

1102
00:49:30,360 --> 00:49:32,640
Speaker 1: these little flip shots. So I wonder if he can

1103
00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:35,360
Speaker 1: continue that. And if he does and he can outplay

1104
00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:38,879
Speaker 1: Eric Randolph slash Rudolphs last fled, so then that's that's

1105
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:41,920
Speaker 1: huge for the Heat if Drogag plays at this level,

1106
00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:45,520
Speaker 1: paired with the Heat shooters and the defense locking in

1107
00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:47,919
Speaker 1: and trying to slow those other guys around Giannis down. Yeah,

1108
00:49:48,080 --> 00:49:51,719
Speaker 1: I'm I'm liking Miami's chances in this. So, unless there's

1109
00:49:51,760 --> 00:49:53,440
Speaker 1: anything else to add, we got a couple of you

1110
00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:54,680
Speaker 1: guys leaning towards my head?

1111
00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:58,040
Speaker 6: Is this a revenge series for Eric Randolph? Basically Goran

1112
00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:01,160
Speaker 6: Dragons and him where teammates with Phoenix. Goran Dragic hated

1113
00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:03,239
Speaker 6: it said get me out of here, and then Eric

1114
00:50:03,280 --> 00:50:05,120
Speaker 6: Bledsoe eventually said, yeah, I.

1115
00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:07,560
Speaker 4: Also hate it. Here me out of here. So I

1116
00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:07,880
Speaker 4: don't know.

1117
00:50:07,920 --> 00:50:09,640
Speaker 6: They've got a little bit of history between the two

1118
00:50:09,640 --> 00:50:12,160
Speaker 6: of them. Maybe that fires Roodolph up a little bit.

1119
00:50:12,320 --> 00:50:15,920
Speaker 1: Maybe did Jimmy Butler and Middleton play a Bucks Bulls

1120
00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:17,160
Speaker 1: Series two back in the day?

1121
00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:20,879
Speaker 6: Tray They definitely played twenty fifteen. I don't know if

1122
00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:23,200
Speaker 6: I assume Middleton was a bad point.

1123
00:50:23,239 --> 00:50:25,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I did, they were. I mean, yeah, he wasn't

1124
00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:27,440
Speaker 1: the Middleton you know of today, a two time All

1125
00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:30,000
Speaker 1: Star at that point yet. But yeah, I don't know

1126
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:32,719
Speaker 1: about the dragas Bledsoe, I'm liking. I'm taking dragics in

1127
00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:35,560
Speaker 1: that matchup if they do have some beef, especially the

1128
00:50:35,600 --> 00:50:38,080
Speaker 1: way he's playing. But okay, task you it sounds like

1129
00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:40,680
Speaker 1: you're taking the heat. How many games?

1130
00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:48,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, unless Yannis can overcome his teammates not producing, I

1131
00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:52,600
Speaker 5: think Miami's got enough. And yeah, the non home courts

1132
00:50:52,600 --> 00:50:55,240
Speaker 5: an equalizer for sure. I think Miami will be reigning

1133
00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:58,759
Speaker 5: down threes because Milwaukee likes to give him up. So

1134
00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:01,680
Speaker 5: going with the head, I'm picking the underdog. But of

1135
00:51:01,719 --> 00:51:03,920
Speaker 5: course I'm going to say in seven, that's how you

1136
00:51:03,960 --> 00:51:07,080
Speaker 5: play it's safe. Yeah, I'll take I'll take Miami in seven.

1137
00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:09,200
Speaker 1: All right, Lee, why don't you go next? Because you

1138
00:51:09,200 --> 00:51:10,440
Speaker 1: were also leaning towards he.

1139
00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:12,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll take the heat and I'll give him six games.

1140
00:51:12,600 --> 00:51:16,400
Speaker 2: I'll say I think they really. I mean, look, this

1141
00:51:16,440 --> 00:51:18,120
Speaker 2: one could blow up in my face for sure, and

1142
00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:23,400
Speaker 2: you know what, great.

1143
00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:22,359
Speaker 1: But because because you know.

1144
00:51:22,280 --> 00:51:24,719
Speaker 2: There's been this is definitely the sexy pick right now,

1145
00:51:24,719 --> 00:51:26,600
Speaker 2: people are like, yeah, this is this is the one that.

1146
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:29,920
Speaker 1: This feels a lot like the Thunder Rockets, like, yeah,

1147
00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:31,839
Speaker 1: he's going into that where a lot of people are

1148
00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:32,680
Speaker 1: taking the Thunder. Yeah.

1149
00:51:32,800 --> 00:51:33,520
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1150
00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:36,160
Speaker 2: But I really do think this is again, just a

1151
00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:38,560
Speaker 2: really nice matchup for Miami. They're going to shoot the threes.

1152
00:51:38,600 --> 00:51:41,280
Speaker 2: They're well coached, they're well prepared, they've got a great defense,

1153
00:51:41,320 --> 00:51:43,440
Speaker 2: and they've got a closer. And also talk about that

1154
00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:45,120
Speaker 2: Brook Lopez if he comes out on the pick and

1155
00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:47,400
Speaker 2: roll and then bam, being as athletic and quick as

1156
00:51:47,400 --> 00:51:49,000
Speaker 2: he is, he's just going to go straight to the

1157
00:51:49,040 --> 00:51:51,239
Speaker 2: hoop and they've got lobs there all day long. So

1158
00:51:51,680 --> 00:51:53,799
Speaker 2: uh yeah, give me heat and six? Why not?

1159
00:51:54,200 --> 00:51:56,080
Speaker 1: Okay, Wow, we got a heat in seven. We've got

1160
00:51:56,120 --> 00:51:59,480
Speaker 1: to heat Sex now Tree usually counters. But where are

1161
00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:00,359
Speaker 1: you going with this, Trey?

1162
00:52:00,640 --> 00:52:03,240
Speaker 6: Take me down to the creamy see where the Bucks

1163
00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:06,240
Speaker 6: are green in the city is creamy. I'm going cream City,

1164
00:52:06,280 --> 00:52:08,520
Speaker 6: baby Bucks in six. I think there's a lot of

1165
00:52:08,560 --> 00:52:11,000
Speaker 6: pressure on the Heat shooters to shoot the lights out

1166
00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:14,799
Speaker 6: every single game Duncan Robinson his first playoff experience.

1167
00:52:15,160 --> 00:52:16,239
Speaker 4: Same for Tyler Hero.

1168
00:52:17,200 --> 00:52:18,960
Speaker 6: Eventually, the Bucks are going to find a way to

1169
00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:20,600
Speaker 6: take at least one of them out of the series.

1170
00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:23,560
Speaker 6: You'll still get some kind of shots, but it's a

1171
00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:25,640
Speaker 6: lot different when you're getting ten attempts and you got

1172
00:52:25,640 --> 00:52:27,080
Speaker 6: to make four of them than when you're getting three

1173
00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:28,560
Speaker 6: attempts and you got to make two of them. That's

1174
00:52:28,600 --> 00:52:30,960
Speaker 6: a lot of pressure for a couple of young guys.

1175
00:52:31,200 --> 00:52:33,360
Speaker 6: And I mean, I've been putting a lot of stock

1176
00:52:33,360 --> 00:52:36,120
Speaker 6: into what's happening in the Bubble compared to the regular season.

1177
00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:38,319
Speaker 6: But this Bucks team is really really good. They can

1178
00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:41,200
Speaker 6: really lock down defensively, and hopefully that's going to be

1179
00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:44,640
Speaker 6: the case for my pick. You know, I think the

1180
00:52:44,680 --> 00:52:47,000
Speaker 6: Heat is going to definitely be the trendy pick. I

1181
00:52:47,040 --> 00:52:49,319
Speaker 6: think I would probably rather like to see the Heat

1182
00:52:49,320 --> 00:52:51,960
Speaker 6: win it, but ultimately I'm rolling with the Bucks.

1183
00:52:52,360 --> 00:52:56,200
Speaker 1: Oh boy. I mean, look, it feels like it could

1184
00:52:56,200 --> 00:52:58,799
Speaker 1: be similar to the Raptors beating the Bucks last year,

1185
00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:01,680
Speaker 1: like where the Heat could replicate that to some extent.

1186
00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:04,440
Speaker 1: You know, you could slow down Yannis as much as

1187
00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:06,720
Speaker 1: you can. You can take away the other guys because

1188
00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:09,399
Speaker 1: you might have the better supporting cast. You can knock

1189
00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:12,600
Speaker 1: down threes and timely threes at that. You can sort

1190
00:53:12,600 --> 00:53:16,000
Speaker 1: of like squint and you can see why the Heat

1191
00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:18,759
Speaker 1: could win this and again even had success against them.

1192
00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:21,360
Speaker 1: And I sort of like, in a close game, the

1193
00:53:21,400 --> 00:53:23,359
Speaker 1: Heat are not gonna blow the Bucks out. That's the thing.

1194
00:53:23,440 --> 00:53:25,879
Speaker 1: They really aren't. They're gonna be close games in their wins,

1195
00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:28,680
Speaker 1: even if they get a couple. But I like Jimmy.

1196
00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:31,560
Speaker 1: You know, what do you take? Do you take Jimmy

1197
00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:34,640
Speaker 1: over Yannis in a in a one point game with

1198
00:53:34,719 --> 00:53:35,480
Speaker 1: two minutes to go?

1199
00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:36,319
Speaker 3: You know?

1200
00:53:36,640 --> 00:53:39,200
Speaker 1: Do you like the Heat and Jimmy more than the Bucks?

1201
00:53:40,040 --> 00:53:42,080
Speaker 1: I guess I sort of do. And I have no

1202
00:53:42,200 --> 00:53:46,080
Speaker 1: faith in Bud to give Jannis forty four minutes, to

1203
00:53:46,160 --> 00:53:49,000
Speaker 1: give Middleton forty plus minutes. I think he's gonna have

1204
00:53:49,080 --> 00:53:51,600
Speaker 1: to do it, and maybe he will and shut me up.

1205
00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:55,120
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna go heat and seven, heat and seven

1206
00:53:55,160 --> 00:53:57,040
Speaker 1: and in a really close game. I'm so excited for

1207
00:53:57,080 --> 00:53:59,600
Speaker 1: these two Eastern Conference series, obviously with the Celtics raps

1208
00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:01,760
Speaker 1: up in today too, and a lot of us saying

1209
00:54:01,760 --> 00:54:04,120
Speaker 1: that one can go seven. So it's the trendy pick,

1210
00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:07,680
Speaker 1: no doubt. I like your swerve there, Trey, just like

1211
00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:09,759
Speaker 1: you convinced me. You almost convinced me again with the

1212
00:54:10,200 --> 00:54:11,120
Speaker 1: when you got me to go to.

1213
00:54:11,120 --> 00:54:11,600
Speaker 2: The rop on.

1214
00:54:11,680 --> 00:54:13,359
Speaker 6: Now you're gonna be right on that one. You could

1215
00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:15,040
Speaker 6: be right on this one if you change your mind.

1216
00:54:15,200 --> 00:54:16,320
Speaker 6: No very second.

1217
00:54:16,640 --> 00:54:20,000
Speaker 1: No, I'm going heat. I'm going heat in seven. Ah man,

1218
00:54:20,080 --> 00:54:21,560
Speaker 1: just give us a seven round series. That's all I

1219
00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:25,120
Speaker 1: really care about. Guys. We're gonna get to tweet of

1220
00:54:25,160 --> 00:54:27,959
Speaker 1: the night. We're gonna get to setting up today's game again,

1221
00:54:27,960 --> 00:54:30,240
Speaker 1: that Celtics Raptors game one in their second round series.

1222
00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:31,840
Speaker 1: But first a word from grammarly.

1223
00:54:32,840 --> 00:54:35,280
Speaker 6: We got a bunch of short names here on No Dunks,

1224
00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:39,160
Speaker 6: Trey Kirby, Task, Malice, j E. Skeets, Lee Ls, Jason Doyle.

1225
00:54:39,239 --> 00:54:43,600
Speaker 6: We're talking ten characters, Max, not an Antetokoompo or McConaughey

1226
00:54:43,600 --> 00:54:47,600
Speaker 6: and the bunch but people still look like absolute idiots

1227
00:54:47,719 --> 00:54:50,600
Speaker 6: when they misspell our names. There's no a in Trey

1228
00:54:51,040 --> 00:54:53,640
Speaker 6: Task is not a spinning cartoon character, and Lee elis

1229
00:54:53,640 --> 00:54:56,319

Speaker 1: let's let's get to tweet of.

1260
00:56:31,800 --> 00:56:39,080
Speaker 3: The night, tweet out the night. Wow Twitter, So.

1261
00:56:39,160 --> 00:56:40,680
Speaker 1: We got Tessy.

1262
00:56:41,760 --> 00:56:44,879
Speaker 3: This was a very easy one.

1263
00:56:45,040 --> 00:56:49,120
Speaker 5: This comes from our friend Mark Spears, who tweeted about

1264
00:56:49,200 --> 00:56:53,759
Speaker 5: George Hill missing the national anthem bucks gard. George Hill

1265
00:56:53,800 --> 00:56:55,760
Speaker 5: says he missed the play of the national anthem because

1266
00:56:55,760 --> 00:56:58,440
Speaker 5: he was in the midst of his pregame ritual of

1267
00:56:58,960 --> 00:57:04,319
Speaker 5: quote taking a ship. And then George Hill was asked

1268
00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:07,839
Speaker 5: about it and he said, yeah, I've been doing this for.

1269
00:57:07,640 --> 00:57:09,600
Speaker 1: Four years I was born.

1270
00:57:11,200 --> 00:57:13,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, I was a little surprised that It's only been

1271
00:57:13,080 --> 00:57:15,760
Speaker 5: four years that George Hill has been doing that pregame.

1272
00:57:15,840 --> 00:57:18,040
Speaker 5: He hasn't been doing it for his whole NBA career,

1273
00:57:18,080 --> 00:57:21,280
Speaker 5: but it feels good to do it for the last

1274
00:57:21,320 --> 00:57:23,600
Speaker 5: four years, and that's why he's missed it. And he said, yeah,

1275
00:57:23,640 --> 00:57:25,920
Speaker 5: you guys were in the hallway and so you saw me.

1276
00:57:25,960 --> 00:57:28,560
Speaker 5: You guys are slacking off doing nothing, but I've been

1277
00:57:28,560 --> 00:57:31,640
Speaker 5: doing it year in and year out. So Mark Spears

1278
00:57:33,040 --> 00:57:36,360
Speaker 5: getting the scoops of the poops. Thank you very much,

1279
00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:38,040
Speaker 5: Mark Spears, well done, well done.

1280
00:57:38,040 --> 00:57:38,760
Speaker 3: I mean that was easy.

1281
00:57:38,760 --> 00:57:40,320
Speaker 5: It was an easy when Trey sent that one out

1282
00:57:40,320 --> 00:57:45,320
Speaker 5: and we didn't have to overtake it. Yeah, Yannis overheard it.

1283
00:57:45,320 --> 00:57:48,240
Speaker 5: By the way, Mark Spears also tweeted Yanis overheard George

1284
00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:53,240
Speaker 5: Hill saying that to the media, and Yanna said, quote, man,

1285
00:57:53,440 --> 00:57:54,080
Speaker 5: that's big.

1286
00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:57,840
Speaker 3: I'm not sure what well you said?

1287
00:57:57,880 --> 00:57:59,120
Speaker 1: You overheard Hilty.

1288
00:58:02,760 --> 00:58:05,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, you can interpret that many ways. I think he's

1289
00:58:05,400 --> 00:58:08,520
Speaker 5: interpreting Georgeaill saying it to the media that man, you're

1290
00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:11,080
Speaker 5: revealing your secret about your pregame ritual.

1291
00:58:11,200 --> 00:58:11,920
Speaker 3: That's huge.

1292
00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:15,400
Speaker 5: Uh So, yeah, that's why he missed it. Though there's

1293
00:58:15,400 --> 00:58:17,760
Speaker 5: no protest happening. He wasn't missing the national anthem for

1294
00:58:17,800 --> 00:58:21,280
Speaker 5: any other reason other than you feel good after you

1295
00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:24,440
Speaker 5: lose a pound. A lot of athletes do that.

1296
00:58:24,800 --> 00:58:26,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's it. A lot of people have

1297
00:58:26,560 --> 00:58:27,880
Speaker 2: their pregame routine like that.

1298
00:58:28,600 --> 00:58:31,000
Speaker 1: But you know what's interesting about that, Lee is like

1299
00:58:31,440 --> 00:58:33,560
Speaker 1: the timing. I don't know about you. I can't just

1300
00:58:33,600 --> 00:58:36,280
Speaker 1: take a dump whatever I want. So, like these games

1301
00:58:36,280 --> 00:58:38,360
Speaker 1: are like moving around. You got a one o'clock start,

1302
00:58:38,400 --> 00:58:39,919
Speaker 1: you got a six thirty start, you got a later.

1303
00:58:40,240 --> 00:58:43,919
Speaker 2: It's like, I think you got to take control because

1304
00:58:44,440 --> 00:58:46,000
Speaker 2: I can kind of schedule one like that.

1305
00:58:47,520 --> 00:58:52,880
Speaker 4: Schedule like if you if you have you know, if.

1306
00:58:52,800 --> 00:58:54,160
Speaker 2: You have a big meal and you know you've got

1307
00:58:54,200 --> 00:58:55,440
Speaker 2: something to do where you're gonna be a way and

1308
00:58:55,440 --> 00:58:57,080
Speaker 2: you're on the court, because you can't get halfway through

1309
00:58:57,120 --> 00:58:58,640
Speaker 2: the game or anything. I mean you can, but you

1310
00:58:58,680 --> 00:58:59,959
Speaker 2: can't if you know what I mean, Like you don't

1311
00:59:00,080 --> 00:59:02,240
Speaker 2: on to so you sort of just you know, you

1312
00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:04,120
Speaker 2: give your body a little bit of a nudge and

1313
00:59:04,320 --> 00:59:06,000
Speaker 2: moves it along. You can't do it.

1314
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:08,800
Speaker 1: It's yeah, you can do it. I'm sure you can

1315
00:59:08,840 --> 00:59:11,919
Speaker 1: do I mean, look, I hate it when it comes

1316
00:59:11,920 --> 00:59:13,800
Speaker 1: to like running races, when you run a race or

1317
00:59:13,840 --> 00:59:17,360
Speaker 1: usually at like seven in the morning. Yeah, and you

1318
00:59:17,440 --> 00:59:19,160
Speaker 1: if you're gonna run a long race, Yeah, you want

1319
00:59:19,200 --> 00:59:21,800
Speaker 1: to take a dump before you run the race. Yeah,

1320
00:59:22,040 --> 00:59:24,560
Speaker 1: it's like I but what I find myself doing is

1321
00:59:24,600 --> 00:59:26,920
Speaker 1: I like I'm just going to the bathroom back and forth,

1322
00:59:27,000 --> 00:59:29,040
Speaker 1: like four or five times at like six in the morning,

1323
00:59:29,120 --> 00:59:31,880
Speaker 1: like trying to course it out of me. I guess

1324
00:59:31,880 --> 00:59:33,840
Speaker 1: you're a little better at it. Ah, Yeah, I think.

1325
00:59:34,080 --> 00:59:35,920
Speaker 2: I mean, like for me, it's any time you've got

1326
00:59:35,920 --> 00:59:37,520
Speaker 2: to go on a long flight or anything, or not

1327
00:59:37,520 --> 00:59:39,320
Speaker 2: even a long flight, just a flight. You don't want

1328
00:59:39,360 --> 00:59:40,600
Speaker 2: to be at the airport and have to use the

1329
00:59:40,640 --> 00:59:46,840
Speaker 2: airport facilities or worse the air then it's then it's

1330
00:59:46,920 --> 00:59:48,919
Speaker 2: like you hold on, you hold on for dear life.

1331
00:59:49,120 --> 00:59:53,400
Speaker 2: You get to the airport, but you know, it's it's

1332
00:59:53,440 --> 00:59:55,680
Speaker 2: just that routine. So you sort of prepare yourself. You're like, okay,

1333
00:59:55,680 --> 00:59:56,800
Speaker 2: and now I'm gonna have to do this, and you

1334
00:59:56,880 --> 00:59:59,080
Speaker 2: just get ready and you know, you go.

1335
01:00:00,640 --> 01:00:01,120
Speaker 3: You can do it.

1336
01:00:01,480 --> 01:00:03,160
Speaker 1: I mean some people can do it. I don't think

1337
01:00:03,160 --> 01:00:05,360
Speaker 1: that's easy for everybody. Some people are like clockwork man,

1338
01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:08,000
Speaker 1: like yeah, almost till the minute. You know, every day

1339
01:00:08,240 --> 01:00:09,240
Speaker 1: is when that's happening.

1340
01:00:10,000 --> 01:00:11,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you're thinking about you as you're in

1341
01:00:11,880 --> 01:00:12,200
Speaker 2: and out.

1342
01:00:12,600 --> 01:00:13,600
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1343
01:00:13,800 --> 01:00:15,240
Speaker 4: You can do it at a time out, no problem.

1344
01:00:15,720 --> 01:00:18,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, if anyone could do it during a marathon, I

1345
01:00:18,520 --> 01:00:20,600
Speaker 1: could pop into a porter party and be right back

1346
01:00:20,720 --> 01:00:21,720
Speaker 1: up and ten seconds later.

1347
01:00:22,960 --> 01:00:25,440
Speaker 2: Those quarter parties, like I've seen them at like music

1348
01:00:25,440 --> 01:00:28,560
Speaker 2: outdoor music venues and stuff like parties. Yeah, you know,

1349
01:00:28,880 --> 01:00:31,960
Speaker 2: you know, you know those big plastic things where it's

1350
01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:33,160
Speaker 2: like there's no porter parties.

1351
01:00:33,360 --> 01:00:35,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, there's no running water inside you open it out,

1352
01:00:35,600 --> 01:00:36,360
Speaker 6: there's a toilet.

1353
01:00:36,560 --> 01:00:39,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's just like it's like that scene in

1354
01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:42,560
Speaker 2: slum Dog Millionaire, you know where they use that thing

1355
01:00:42,560 --> 01:00:45,680
Speaker 2: and it's it just goes down and it's like, oh god,

1356
01:00:45,800 --> 01:00:49,720
Speaker 2: it's gross. Just humans are gross man.

1357
01:00:52,000 --> 01:00:56,520
Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, you haven't mastered porter party you know, cuddliness yet,

1358
01:00:56,560 --> 01:00:58,800
Speaker 1: but I would say it's better than it used to be.

1359
01:00:59,080 --> 01:01:03,200
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, yeah, it's Actually there's actually a really good

1360
01:01:03,240 --> 01:01:05,640
Speaker 2: Australian movie called Kenny and it's all about that, and

1361
01:01:05,680 --> 01:01:07,440
Speaker 2: it's it's hilarious. You should watch it.

1362
01:01:07,840 --> 01:01:11,800
Speaker 1: There's a movie about like basically.

1363
01:01:13,080 --> 01:01:15,840
Speaker 2: Basically, he's a that's what he does. He's a he's

1364
01:01:15,880 --> 01:01:18,200
Speaker 2: a plumber. But it's all about that. Let me see

1365
01:01:18,200 --> 01:01:21,600
Speaker 2: if I can get it here for you. Right, wow, yeah.

1366
01:01:21,560 --> 01:01:24,919
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm sort of intrigued, actually hoping you're gonna share

01:01:25,680 --> 01:01:29,800
Speaker 4: We can just watch this whole movie. See what's going down?

1369
01:01:30,240 --> 01:01:33,040

1370
01:01:36,240 --> 01:01:36,760
Speaker 5: Boo that.

1371
01:01:36,800 --> 01:01:38,960
Speaker 1: Al right, Well, you look for this movie called Kenny

1372
01:01:39,000 --> 01:01:40,760
Speaker 1: that's about porta potties in Australia.

1373
01:01:40,880 --> 01:01:43,520
Speaker 2: I'll tell you, man, next time we do a movie review,

1374
01:01:43,640 --> 01:01:45,920
Speaker 2: we do a film session, watch it is. It's hilarious.

1375
01:01:46,000 --> 01:01:47,000
Speaker 2: It's actually really good.

1376
01:01:47,120 --> 01:01:49,160
Speaker 1: All right, all right, task, what we're looking at today

1377
01:01:49,160 --> 01:01:50,160
Speaker 1: in terms of games.

1378
01:01:50,560 --> 01:01:54,120
Speaker 5: Triple header, a couple round one games a little later

1379
01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:57,680
Speaker 5: in the day Clippers in Dallas game six three point

1380
01:01:57,680 --> 01:02:01,919
Speaker 5: thirty eastern on ESPN, and then Denver, Utah also game six,

1381
01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:05,440
Speaker 5: eight thirty eastern on TNT. But what we're looking at

1382
01:02:05,440 --> 01:02:10,000
Speaker 5: here is the one o'clock eastern Round two Game one, Boston, Toronto.

1383
01:02:10,280 --> 01:02:14,360
Speaker 5: Let's get her rolling. Love how the NBA has not

1384
01:02:14,640 --> 01:02:18,000
Speaker 5: staggered all these games, so they have to, you know,

1385
01:02:18,040 --> 01:02:19,480
Speaker 5: start at the same time. I guess that would be

1386
01:02:19,520 --> 01:02:21,920
Speaker 5: non staggering. But the fact that they're not putting this

1387
01:02:22,080 --> 01:02:24,640
Speaker 5: off until it could have been off you know, for

1388
01:02:24,720 --> 01:02:28,160
Speaker 5: several days here. But yeah, I guess the hiatus here

1389
01:02:28,240 --> 01:02:30,280
Speaker 5: the last few days is also kind of you know,

1390
01:02:30,320 --> 01:02:33,280
Speaker 5: push these back anyway, and got Kyle Lowry some some

1391
01:02:33,360 --> 01:02:39,360
Speaker 5: fresh heel slash ankles apparently. So hey, what do you

1392
01:02:39,440 --> 01:02:41,640
Speaker 5: got in this series? I mean, has anybody changed their

1393
01:02:41,680 --> 01:02:45,400
Speaker 5: opinion since yesterday? No, you can't, right, you can't change it.

1394
01:02:45,440 --> 01:02:48,800
Speaker 2: But yeah, yeah, this is gonna be a fun series.

1395
01:02:48,840 --> 01:02:50,680
Speaker 2: I really hope it lives up to because these are

1396
01:02:50,720 --> 01:02:54,080
Speaker 2: two very very good teams and it's it's gonna be fun,

1397
01:02:54,080 --> 01:02:55,720
Speaker 2: and it's good to get to this point where because

1398
01:02:55,720 --> 01:02:58,120
Speaker 2: some of those first round matchups, you know, they're not

1399
01:02:58,160 --> 01:03:00,600
Speaker 2: that exciting, you know, the Rapins in Brooklyn and Saudi

1400
01:03:00,800 --> 01:03:05,280
Speaker 2: talked about Orlando Milwaukee. Uh, this one though, should be everything. Sorry,

1401
01:03:05,360 --> 01:03:06,040
Speaker 2: let's harp it ease.

1402
01:03:06,320 --> 01:03:09,200
Speaker 1: I'm actually just like you're talking about the scheduling here,

1403
01:03:09,280 --> 01:03:12,440
Speaker 1: tasks like them starting this one here today, is starting

1404
01:03:12,520 --> 01:03:16,880
Speaker 1: heat Bucks tomorrow. You wonder like it's gonna be It

1405
01:03:16,880 --> 01:03:19,160
Speaker 1: could be weird if some of these Western Conference series

1406
01:03:19,200 --> 01:03:21,640
Speaker 1: go to seven games, right, Like we could have the

1407
01:03:21,720 --> 01:03:25,200
Speaker 1: Nuggets Jazz As it could go seven. You know, maybe

1408
01:03:25,240 --> 01:03:27,640
Speaker 1: the Mavericks pull it off here in game six time

1409
01:03:27,760 --> 01:03:29,880
Speaker 1: and they push a game, so they can be those

1410
01:03:29,880 --> 01:03:32,320
Speaker 1: series could be very far behind. I guess they would

1411
01:03:32,320 --> 01:03:35,320
Speaker 1: almost be like two games behind, maybe maybe even three

1412
01:03:35,360 --> 01:03:38,160
Speaker 1: in the case of a of a Raptor Celtics series,

1413
01:03:38,440 --> 01:03:41,360
Speaker 1: which a little odd, right, Yeah, for sure.

1414
01:03:41,720 --> 01:03:43,960
Speaker 5: It is a a shout out to the Eastern Conference

1415
01:03:43,960 --> 01:03:46,160
Speaker 5: teams for taking care of business in either four or

1416
01:03:46,160 --> 01:03:48,160
Speaker 5: five games, just getting it done. Let's get to the

1417
01:03:48,200 --> 01:03:50,720
Speaker 5: better teams here. Let's let's move on. But yeah, we've

1418
01:03:50,720 --> 01:03:52,960
Speaker 5: got we've got some good series. Those three series are

1419
01:03:52,960 --> 01:03:56,560
Speaker 5: still live in the Western Conference. It's unfortunate Christaps Porzingis

1420
01:03:56,560 --> 01:03:58,520
Speaker 5: won't be around, but that was a great series. Denver

1421
01:03:58,640 --> 01:04:02,320
Speaker 5: Utah has been entertaining at times, and the Rockets Thundercut

1422
01:04:02,360 --> 01:04:05,560
Speaker 5: also go seven games. So yeah, the Eastern Conference series

1423
01:04:05,600 --> 01:04:07,600
Speaker 5: were a little anticlimactic.

1424
01:04:07,680 --> 01:04:10,919
Speaker 3: But you know, we've had enough enough juice I think

1425
01:04:10,960 --> 01:04:11,360
Speaker 3: so far.

1426
01:04:11,440 --> 01:04:13,680
Speaker 5: But hey, you have sixteen teams in there. That's what's

1427
01:04:13,680 --> 01:04:16,520
Speaker 5: gonna happen. That's why you're gonna expand this tournament to

1428
01:04:16,600 --> 01:04:17,919
Speaker 5: make it twenty twenty two.

1429
01:04:18,440 --> 01:04:22,200
Speaker 1: Just put the whole thirty teen down there. Okay, so

1430
01:04:22,200 --> 01:04:23,840
Speaker 1: what snack do you want me to bring over today?

1431
01:04:23,920 --> 01:04:24,120
Speaker 4: Test?

1432
01:04:24,720 --> 01:04:26,680
Speaker 1: What time you want is over there? I'll tell you

1433
01:04:26,720 --> 01:04:28,720
Speaker 1: about that TV that you could take anywhere. What happened

1434
01:04:28,720 --> 01:04:30,000
Speaker 1: to that service? Used to have that?

1435
01:04:30,320 --> 01:04:34,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's called at and TV. But unfortunately it's too

1436
01:04:34,640 --> 01:04:38,840
Speaker 5: hot outside. Oh it's dead as summer. It's ninety five degrees.

1437
01:04:38,840 --> 01:04:41,240
Speaker 5: I don't have a shaded area.

1438
01:04:41,400 --> 01:04:42,600
Speaker 1: Your TV's gonna melt it.

1439
01:04:42,720 --> 01:04:44,400
Speaker 5: I thought about it bringing over to your house, but

1440
01:04:44,400 --> 01:04:46,320
Speaker 5: it wouldn't work. Cable service wouldn't work.

1441
01:04:46,520 --> 01:04:48,280
Speaker 1: Ah, No, we don't worry. We can fire it up
