Okay. 99 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 2: Well, on today's podcast, we are going to get to 100 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 2: some hypothetical trades. 101 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 3: We'll talk a little bit. 102 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 2: About Nick Nurse and whether the Raptors head coach is 103 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 2: on the hot seat. But let's start with the games. 104 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 3: We'll begin with. 105 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:57,280 Speaker 2: Deeron Fox and Trey Lyles helping the Kings outlast the 106 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 2: Wolves one to eighteen, one to eleven in o time. 107 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 1: Uh. 108 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 2: This was their second game in a row. Wolves took 109 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 2: the first one, Kings take this one, entertaining. Obviously an 110 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,599 Speaker 2: overtime game. Some fun storylines in this one, but your takeaways. 111 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,799 Speaker 1: Tests well, I just love the intensity of this game. First, 112 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:16,360 Speaker 1: to Manta Saboni's getting tossed. Uh, he was tossed because 113 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 1: he fouled out, but it looked like he could have 114 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 1: got tossed earlier when he got pessed off. You don't 115 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,359 Speaker 1: see de Manta Sabonis get angry, ever, and he was 116 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:28,280 Speaker 1: extremely angry when there was a non call. It seemed 117 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,839 Speaker 1: like he got ejected for it. He got ejected, yeah, 118 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,359 Speaker 1: because he went to the back. But apparently he just 119 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 1: wanted to cool down and there was only one way 120 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 1: to do it. 121 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 3: Jane, are you okay? Bring the boat back around. We 122 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 3: could just start over. 123 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 5: I'm just sitting in the dusk. Yeah, I'm just pressing buttons. 124 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 5: Don't mind. 125 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:53,040 Speaker 3: I know. Second day, let's just press that. See what 126 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 3: that does. 127 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, we had a little visual malfunction for our podcast 128 00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: listeners just now, who don't understand what's happening. But anyway, 129 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 1: right about Simonus went to the back and it looked 130 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,919 Speaker 1: like he was ejected. Yeah, he was so angry. You 131 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,479 Speaker 1: literally don't see that too often. But a smart move, 132 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:12,919 Speaker 1: go cool off in the back. Apparently de Marcus Cousins 133 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: had that as a rule with Alvin Gentry back in 134 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 1: the day with New Orleans, like if you get angry, 135 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,040 Speaker 1: you go to the back. But I had never heard 136 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:20,919 Speaker 1: of that of any other NBA player. But Sibonis went 137 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:22,479 Speaker 1: to the back. You don't see that happened too often. 138 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 1: But he came out because this did feel like a 139 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,279 Speaker 1: playoff game. And then eventually when he fouled out, it 140 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: looked like the Kings were going to lose, especially the 141 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: Kings and the way that they struggled to shoot. Yeah, 142 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,600 Speaker 1: Fox had thirty two in the end, but it was 143 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 1: on twenty seven shots. This was a game that they 144 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,599 Speaker 1: would usually lose, and these stretching games here they're on 145 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,919 Speaker 1: the seven game road trip. It felt like they were 146 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 1: going to lose this game. But a King's team that 147 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 1: just fought back without Sabonis and played really well with 148 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:55,039 Speaker 1: Trey Lyles at the five. In overtime, there to stretch 149 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 1: out Rudy Gobert, which really really helped fifty games in 150 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 1: a team that's responding really really well to little adversity there. 151 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 1: If you're a King's fan, you gotta be very optimistic 152 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 1: going into the All Star game that they fought through 153 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: a game where Kevin herd Or stunk and the bench 154 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 1: came through and helped out. So just overall a positive 155 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 1: Kings vibe in this one. 156 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 4: Would you think Titka, this was a fun game to watch, 157 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 4: I thought, dearon Fox, I don't know how he only 158 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 4: scored eight points in the fourth quarter. It felt like 159 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 4: he had a lot more. He was just in the 160 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 4: lane all the time, a lot of tear drops, a 161 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 4: lot of floaters. I thought that was cool. I thought 162 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 4: Trey Lyles was awesome in the fourth quarter or in 163 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 4: the overtime more so, eight points of his eleven and 164 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 4: it was kind of a change of pace, like you 165 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 4: were saying, So Bonus and Gobert had a really fun 166 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 4: matchup to watch the entire night, just bashing into each other, 167 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 4: banging on the glass and you know, just being big, 168 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 4: physical dudes. And then Trey Lyles comes in for the 169 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 4: last five minutes of the game and it's like, oh, 170 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 4: Rudy Gobert suddenly got a guard, a fast guy, put 171 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 4: the ball on the floor, blew by him for a 172 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 4: slam dunk and one hit a three. It was just 173 00:07:56,320 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 4: cool to see the Kings have a curveball really overtime. 174 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 4: But the Timberwolves kind of gave this game away. They 175 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 4: missed their first six free throw shot really poorly on 176 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 4: the night, and then they had so many dumb turnovers, 177 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 4: particularly after getting a stop, like they'd be trying to 178 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 4: fast break the other way, and it always seemed to 179 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 4: be Harrison Barnes intercepting a pass at half court. Twenty 180 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 4: one points off of turnovers for Sacramento in this one. 181 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 4: And you know, in a game between two teams who 182 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 4: are pretty close with each other, you know, the Timberwolves 183 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 4: just beat the King, so it's not totally surprising to 184 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 4: see it go the other way. Just too many times 185 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 4: where they lacked attention to detail for Minnesota to pull 186 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 4: out this win. 187 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, and miscommunication on the defensive end just over and over. 188 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 2: Especially Dangelo Russell. They're giving up but tray less dunk underneath, 189 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 2: like miscommunication in terms of like are we switching Who's 190 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 2: picking him up. I mean that was sort of the 191 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:47,080 Speaker 2: nail in the coffin in overtime there. 192 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 1: And he was pointing, Yeah, I should have been pointing 193 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 1: at himself. 194 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, ah, man, D'Angelo Russell. He has got to be 195 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 2: one of the more like frustrating players in the league, 196 00:08:57,679 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 2: especially if I was like a you know, a Wolves fan, 197 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 2: like he has incredible games. We talked about him on 198 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 2: Monday's podcasts. You know, I lumped him in as a 199 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 2: winner of the weekend with Anthony Edwards and the Wolves 200 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 2: picking up wins because he you know, takes over quarters, 201 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,439 Speaker 2: gets hot, plays well, sets up guys. He has a 202 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:14,560 Speaker 2: couple of nice passes in this game, but then he 203 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 2: has these rough games where he can't shoot two for 204 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 2: ten from three four to sixteen overall, some bad turnovers 205 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 2: and then just the lack of concentration on the defense. 206 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 1: Man. 207 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 2: I just find I would be he'd be just very 208 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 2: tough to watch night in, night out, because it's like, Wow, 209 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:30,959 Speaker 2: this guy's amazing, and then whoa, my god, this guy's 210 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 2: sort of killing us, Like what's he doing out there? 211 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 2: Feels like game to game. I mean, Wolf fans can 212 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 2: probably speak better that than I can. But even me 213 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 2: just watching a lot of them, it's like, oh God, 214 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:40,839 Speaker 2: this guy, who are you man? 215 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 3: Hangure it out. 216 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 2: It's like he's sort of Ltizo in a way because 217 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 2: he has those brilliant stretches. But this was a bad one, 218 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,199 Speaker 2: especially that play. And back to the Kings, You're right, 219 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:52,200 Speaker 2: these are the types of games the Kings need to 220 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 2: win here right to maintain that spot in the Western 221 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:58,439 Speaker 2: Conference playoffs standings. And I would even say to prepare 222 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:00,679 Speaker 2: yourselves for a playoff series. They have been there in 223 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 2: a very very long time. There are going to be 224 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 2: games like this. Teams can't shoot threes, defense a little 225 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 2: bit more locked in. Yeah, this was sloppy, sure, but 226 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 2: you gotta win these ones where you just don't go 227 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 2: out and score one hundred and thirty five points, right, 228 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 2: It's more of a low scoring affair, and. 229 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:15,439 Speaker 3: They pulled it off. 230 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,079 Speaker 2: And I thought this was a nice little battle here 231 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 2: between Anthony Edwards and Daron Fox for possibly that final 232 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 2: All Star spot. I mean, the coaches have already got 233 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 2: their ballots in this game last night will have no 234 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 2: impact on that, but I think these two look, I 235 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 2: think we could come on Friday's podcast and go these 236 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 2: are the two biggest snubs. They both could not make it. Sure, 237 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 2: maybe just one makes it, you know, maybe maybe both 238 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 2: make it probably unlikely, but they both had a you know, 239 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 2: really good games over probably over these last two I 240 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 2: thought where they went ahead head dead. 241 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, and as Trey said, it felt like Fox did 242 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: a lot more than have eight points in the fourth 243 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 1: quarter because he was leading his squad to the right shots. 244 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 1: And that's what mattered here. With Sabonis out, I like it, 245 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:58,719 Speaker 1: kind of liked how it was on Fox's shoulders to 246 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:01,320 Speaker 1: lead the way, even though you know he is their leader, 247 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 1: leading ball handler. A lot of it goes through the bonus. 248 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:07,359 Speaker 1: But these are nice little preparation minutes for the postseason 249 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:10,959 Speaker 1: that they should have sounded like a preparation h commercial. 250 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 1: Let it just said, you know, like preparation minutes. Sounded 251 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:19,400 Speaker 1: like you had a tummy troubles. Anyway, it's important to 252 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 1: have these these moments that you go through. And yeah, 253 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,080 Speaker 1: as you said, they didn't shoot the ball well, they 254 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 1: didn't start the third quarter well, but they just battle 255 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: back ugly win. It was an ugly game in the end, 256 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 1: but some good battles out there. 257 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 3: You had a. 258 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 2: Tweet about Malik Monk and his layups, and I saw 259 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:37,680 Speaker 2: it when I was like, I was thinking the exact 260 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,440 Speaker 2: same thing. Can you explain, like what you like the 261 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 2: weird type of layups this guy sort of does. 262 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: He is a guy who gets to the rim but 263 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: has his hand over the rim and doesn't dunk it. 264 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, he just drops it in. 265 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:54,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, he gets up high. Yeah, and then it's not 266 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 1: a finger I guess it is a finger roll, but 267 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 1: there's no role. It's just it's just a it's just 268 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 1: a get out there, leave it, let it go. So 269 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 1: it's unique. Yeah, he just doesn't throw it down. It 270 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: looks cool. It's just doesn't happen a lot. You know, 271 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:11,319 Speaker 1: it's not if it's not a scoop shot because he's 272 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 1: not under the bucket. But it works. He was key 273 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:15,720 Speaker 1: in this game. 274 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:17,719 Speaker 2: It was especially I heard her had a brutal game 275 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 2: shooting there. He shot bad in both of those games 276 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 2: against the Wolves, but they. 277 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 3: Pulled it off. Fun game. 278 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:23,320 Speaker 2: Go check the highlights Kings Wolves. 279 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 4: Last note, he shouldn't have even gone to ot Monster 280 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 4: Travel by Jaden McDaniel. Yeah three, he looks pretty surprised 281 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 4: to be wide open, stumbled wanting to pass it to 282 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 4: the corner, realized, wait a second, I should just take 283 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 4: this three traveled again, and then dribbled knocked it down. 284 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 4: Kings would have had a beef because that's coming back 285 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:42,719 Speaker 4: on the line. 286 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 2: Well there's actually there's a tweet from the at official 287 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 2: NBA refs. Okay, they tweeted, like everyone else, referees make mistakes. 288 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 2: We made one at the end of last night's game, 289 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 2: and that is gut wrenching for us. This play will 290 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 2: weigh heavily and cause sleepless nights as we strive to 291 00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 2: be the best referees we can be. Now, maybe not 292 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 2: as sleep because King King go on and overtime, but 293 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 2: a little tossing and turning, can't get comfortable with your 294 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,200 Speaker 2: arm and the pillow. That was the NBA officials last night. 295 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 2: So they're apologizing for that one too. 296 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 4: It's a tough thing. It's a real it's a flywheel effect. 297 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,320 Speaker 4: They missed this call, then they don't go to sleep, 298 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 4: so they have no energy for the game the next 299 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 4: day where they miss another call, can't sleep that night. 300 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 4: By the end of the season, these referees are going 301 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 4: to be going on what six months without sleep? 302 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, terrible, Yeah, zombies. Yeah, uh luka. 303 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 2: Doncic scores fifty three in his return as the Mavericks 304 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 2: beat the Pistons one eleven, one oh five. 305 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 3: Yeah. 306 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 2: The MAVs needed basically all fifty three of Lucas points. 307 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:43,880 Speaker 2: It was the Luca versus Pistons game, especially in the 308 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 2: first quarter where you had like twenty of twenty four 309 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,520 Speaker 2: of their thirty Luca had in the first quarter and 310 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 2: finished with fifty three and the any. 311 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 1: Thoughts well, he hugged his balcon bro after the game, 312 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 1: boy Bogdanovich, and it felt like he was saying, come 313 00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 1: play with me, play with me. Can we make a deal. 314 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:03,560 Speaker 1: Let's talk to Troy Weaver. Let's get Troy Weaver. Let's 315 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,480 Speaker 1: get Mark Cuban in a room and come play with me. 316 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 1: Because he needs help. He needs some offensive ability and 317 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 1: I know. Sean Scherni of The Athletic has reported that 318 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 1: Dorian Finney Smith, his teammate, is available in a trade 319 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 1: for a star. You're not getting a star for Dorian. 320 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 1: Let's be on Storry. Finney Smith is a young, young 321 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 1: and he's not young anymore. He is a complimentary player. 322 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 1: That's the problem with the MAVs roster is you got 323 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 1: to compile a couple of these guys and you got 324 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 1: to have a another team want those couple of you know, 325 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 1: supporting players to be able to get somebody like who 326 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 1: I think would be the absolute ceiling that the MAVs 327 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 1: could get in return here in nine days. But they 328 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 1: they needed everything that Luca gave them. He looked tired 329 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 1: in the second quarter, really. 330 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 3: And in the first quarter. 331 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 2: You can't really blame him, and he said he, I 332 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:00,040 Speaker 2: guess blame is not the right word, but he I 333 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:04,480 Speaker 2: edited his fifty three point performance because the Pistons assistant 334 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 2: coach Jerome Allen was chirpin at him to use Luca's 335 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 2: actual terminology, like he was talking trash like right from 336 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 2: the jump, just chirp pissed Luke off. He's like, I'm 337 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 2: going to put fifty three up on your head? 338 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 3: Weird? 339 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 1: Did he know who Jerome Allen was? Did just say 340 00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 1: a coach? I'd be impressive if he knew who. 341 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 3: I'm not sure Luca actually specific. 342 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 4: It was reported in the AP though that was Jerome 343 00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 4: Allen was apk outs at the bottom of it and 344 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 4: just put him on blasts. Yeah, I don't know. Probably 345 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 4: chirp at anybody else on the Mavericks, I would say, 346 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 4: you know, there's one guy you're worried about scoring fifty plus, 347 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 4: not the one to talk to, because every other Maverick 348 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:45,760 Speaker 4: outside of Spencer Dinwitdy was in single digits. Dinwitdy twelve points, 349 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 4: ten of them in the fourth quarter went five for six. 350 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 4: Team to score twelve points. So sometimes you got to 351 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 4: score fifty three points for your team to win, and 352 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 4: that's what it was for the MAVs. 353 00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 2: Last thing, this was Jerome Allen, who used to play 354 00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 2: in the league. Yeah, I've had a cup of coffee. 355 00:15:58,560 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 1: Like a couple of years. Right to google. 356 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 2: How many total points do you think Jerome Allen had 357 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 2: in his call it two or three year NBA career. 358 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 1: Fifty three? 359 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 3: No, sixty nine, No, it's Moore. 360 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 2: It is Moore, but only total of three hundred and 361 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:13,960 Speaker 2: sixty or something. I already lost it here, So not 362 00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 2: a lot. He averaged three hundred and thirty six. He 363 00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,120 Speaker 2: averaged less than three points per game. 364 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 1: I wonder if Malik Allen, who's on the heats bench, 365 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 1: averaged more. That's the only Alan I know as an 366 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 1: assistant coach. I didn't even realize Jerome Allen. 367 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, I didn't either. 368 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 1: I was an assisting leak Allen. 369 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 3: Hold on. 370 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 2: Now we need to know his career. Oh yes, four 371 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 2: point nine points. 372 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 4: Per game from Malik Allen. I could see much longer career. 373 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 4: How about Lavoy Allen. 374 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:39,720 Speaker 3: Jesus right, I'm. 375 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 2: Going to say reason right, I bet him and Malik 376 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 2: Allen crossover boy Allen five year career, six year career average, 377 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 2: four point eight. 378 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 4: Okay, what about this aak? What about this out leading 379 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 4: Allen scorer of all time? Lock it in Ray Ray Allen? 380 00:16:56,080 --> 00:17:02,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, not Alan, right, Okay, let me lump some 381 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 1: other games together here. 382 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:05,680 Speaker 2: First, in the West, we had Curry scoring thirty eight points, 383 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:07,400 Speaker 2: he had twelve assist as well as the Warriors top 384 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 2: to the Thunder. We had mckil bridges scoring twenty nine. 385 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 2: Sons pulled away late, beat the Raptors one fourteen, one 386 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 2: oh six. And we had Lillard scoring forty two Blazers 387 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:20,680 Speaker 2: hold off the Hawks one. So the Warriors, the Suns, 388 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 2: and the Blazers all picking up wins there. And we'll 389 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:25,439 Speaker 2: show you the Western Conference standings in a second. But 390 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:28,640 Speaker 2: any any of those games that you wanted to touch on. 391 00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 4: We're in a weird place where there's a game where 392 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:35,120 Speaker 4: a guy scores forty two going against another guy, Dejontay 393 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 4: Murray scores forty and it's just the note yeah at 394 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 4: the end of things, but uh, that's what happened, uh 395 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:45,359 Speaker 4: for Damian Lillard scoring forty two beating the Hawks. I 396 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:47,479 Speaker 4: saw John Mayer was also one of the guests for 397 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:50,320 Speaker 4: Bill Walton on Throw It Down, talking about how he 398 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:54,240 Speaker 4: learned how to play the guitar. No surprise, but I 399 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:57,119 Speaker 4: thought pretty bad help from DeAndre Hunter on that last 400 00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,720 Speaker 4: play when Anthony Simons was wide open for a three, 401 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,200 Speaker 4: like Lord goes by I'm sure it was Murray who 402 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:05,879 Speaker 4: was gardener garden. Lillard goes right by him. So Hunter 403 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,680 Speaker 4: helps from the strong side wing like the easiest pass 404 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:11,679 Speaker 4: possible to Anthony Simons, who is a great three point shooter. 405 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 4: He knocks it down. That basically gave the Trailblazers the win. Afterwards, 406 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:18,200 Speaker 4: Anthony Simons was even like, I couldn't believe he helped 407 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,200 Speaker 4: off of me. Nobody usually helps off me like that, 408 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:23,200 Speaker 4: So I thought that was a pretty bonehead decision by Hunter. There. 409 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:26,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, any money money from that corner, I do believe, 410 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:30,880 Speaker 1: so tough one. Although you know some highlights from Bill 411 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 1: Walton's second presentation as the secondary commentary with John may 412 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:36,960 Speaker 1: Or Charles Barkley joined. 413 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 3: I saw that. 414 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 1: And he was talking about bridges, Chel Bridges having a 415 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 1: great game. Then he just started naming his favorite bridges 416 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:48,480 Speaker 1: multiple times. He talked bridges throughout the broadcast, which was awesome. 417 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 2: He literally, yeah, travel bridges straight up, real architectural business, 418 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 2: architectural bridges. And he like saying, how is a metaphor 419 00:18:59,640 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 2: for life? 420 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 1: The greatest metaphor for life is a bridge? Yes, okay, yeah, 421 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:12,679 Speaker 1: I guess person, a person reaching out, connecting. So it 422 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,680 Speaker 1: was unfortunate. Yeah, you mentioned that the dumb move there 423 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:21,960 Speaker 1: by Jeandre Hunter to come over from Simons. Unfortunately, same 424 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 1: sort of thing happened with the Raps game where they 425 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,400 Speaker 1: didn't box out Tory Craig, Tory Craig for the Philadelphia 426 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,720 Speaker 1: Philadelphia for the Phoenix Suns getting an extra possession there 427 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:32,560 Speaker 1: to have Chris Paul seal it with a three. Tory 428 00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:36,919 Speaker 1: Craig just jumping over, just jumping over Fred mostly but 429 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 1: nobody getting to him, looking like a Sean mary And 430 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 1: from fifteen years ago in Phoenix. Since we're naming old 431 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 1: Allen's let's name an old son. Yeah, Tory Craig, Yeah, 432 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:50,119 Speaker 1: got the board with this big headband and that sealed 433 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 1: the game. Really, that was it. And so mckel bridges, Yeah, 434 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 1: a big one there of twenty nine. As we said, 435 00:19:57,040 --> 00:19:59,880 Speaker 1: tough one for the apps, but the Soun's just outworked them. 436 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 1: That worked him a bit. 437 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:03,440 Speaker 2: Mikail Bridges has turned it on as of late. I 438 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:05,399 Speaker 2: remember we had like it was like a couple of 439 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,120 Speaker 2: weeks ago on this podcast. I know I was specifically 440 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 2: sort of calling him out or like even just pointing 441 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:12,360 Speaker 2: out like, ooh, not maybe a lead guy on a team. Right, 442 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 2: We're seeing his limitations with no Booker, with no Chris Paul, 443 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:17,160 Speaker 2: because he was he was having a lot of games 444 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:19,879 Speaker 2: like ten points, rough shooting nights, you know, sort of 445 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 2: disappearing within games, and they were losing a lot. But 446 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:25,280 Speaker 2: they've racked up a bunch of wins here, and I 447 00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 2: think a large part is he's like sort of, you know, 448 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 2: found his footing as sort of their go to guy, 449 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:31,879 Speaker 2: shooting a much better percentage. Obviously still playing like his 450 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 2: forty minutes per game here, hitting the three ball, so 451 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:36,359 Speaker 2: you know, he shutting me up a little bit and 452 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:38,400 Speaker 2: it's getting maybe just more comfortable as he got those 453 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:42,399 Speaker 2: reps playing the lead guy here was still no Booker 454 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:45,200 Speaker 2: in this lineup, and they've won here a significant amount 455 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:46,920 Speaker 2: of game style with Suns. You know, they beat the Nets, 456 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 2: they beat the Pacers, they beat the Grizzlies, they beat 457 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:50,959 Speaker 2: the Hornets. Okay, lost a close one of the MAVs 458 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,360 Speaker 2: in Rivals week that was the dinwitty game, and then 459 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 2: followed up by beating the Spurs on the road and 460 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:58,719 Speaker 2: then took care of the Raptors at home. They've had 461 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:01,160 Speaker 2: a lot of home games, but you know, they're they're 462 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:02,439 Speaker 2: they're right here. And we might as well show the 463 00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:05,880 Speaker 2: Western Conference standings too, because it is a. 464 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 3: It's a mess. 465 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 2: Not a lot of games separating, you know, really the 466 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:14,639 Speaker 2: third seeded Kings hell down to the tenth eleven's twelfth 467 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 2: team we could have included on this graphic if you 468 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 2: wanted to kept it cut it off at the play 469 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:20,200 Speaker 2: in teams there, but yeah, anything. 470 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:24,040 Speaker 1: The Warriors being fifth, Yeah, yeah, big time. That jumps 471 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:26,680 Speaker 1: out back to back road wins for the first time 472 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 1: this season. 473 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:30,119 Speaker 4: Wow, four and two on the road. In January, Andrew 474 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:33,200 Speaker 4: Wiggins back last night fifteen points and I think it's 475 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,200 Speaker 4: thirteen shots. But at least they got him back only 476 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 4: a game and a hack bath from fourth, two and 477 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 4: a half back from third. Don't let the Warriors get 478 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 4: home court advantage. If you're in the Western Conference, you 479 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:43,880 Speaker 4: want to beat them. 480 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the scary part for a team like the Kings, 481 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 1: who have a really long trip here before the All 482 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 1: Star break. The Clippers are coming on. So yeah, the 483 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 1: Kings are the warrior spot, I would say, for they're 484 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,480 Speaker 1: just in a tough spot because of the the road 485 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:03,639 Speaker 1: trip coming up. Oh, Shippers and Warriors right on their butts. 486 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's I mean, it would just suck to be 487 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:08,360 Speaker 2: the Kings haven't been the playoffs in sixteen years. They're 488 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 2: in the third seed. They're the feel good story of 489 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:12,919 Speaker 2: the of the league. Really, the light the beam, all that. 490 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:16,160 Speaker 2: Maybe two All Stars and then yeah, one one bad 491 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 2: week where they you know, dropped. 492 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:18,160 Speaker 3: Three in a row. 493 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:20,879 Speaker 2: Let's say to some tough competition, they could drop all 494 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,240 Speaker 2: the way down into like a playing spot. 495 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 3: Sure, I mean just like that. 496 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 4: So I mean that's gonna suck. It's honestly gonna be 497 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,480 Speaker 4: tough for the Kings. Regardless if they stayed third. Yeah, 498 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:31,200 Speaker 4: they're getting a matchup with the team who's gonna have 499 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 4: a ton more postseason experience. Yeah yeah, yeah, no matter 500 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 4: who they end up playing. So I don't know, let's 501 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:37,239 Speaker 4: just enjoy it right now. 502 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:38,959 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's why it was a good oneam. Yeah, that's 503 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:39,919 Speaker 1: why it was a good win last night. 504 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:41,359 Speaker 3: Yeah. Uh okay. 505 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 2: As for the Eastern Conference wins, we had Kyrie Irving 506 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 2: scoring twenty six nets, beat the Lakers one twenty one 507 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:51,199 Speaker 2: to one oh four. No Lebron James no ad in 508 00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 2: that game, Ben Caro and the Magic rallied from an 509 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 2: early hole. I think they were down twenty one to 510 00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:58,400 Speaker 2: the Sixers really early in this game, but they win 511 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 2: one nineteen one oh nine Philly. You know, the talk 512 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 2: of the town that that seven game win streak was 513 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:05,880 Speaker 2: it everybody going nuts and beat out playing Yo Kitchen. 514 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 2: And then they lose to a very pesky Magic team 515 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 2: who's actually playing really well as the last month. And 516 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:14,760 Speaker 2: then the Wizards ended get this, a twenty two game 517 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:19,159 Speaker 2: skid in San Antonio. The Wizards had not won in 518 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,920 Speaker 2: San Antonio since nineteen ninety nine. 519 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 4: That's a sizable skid. 520 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 2: That's a that's a skid where you throw the underwear out. 521 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 2: You are not washing that you were, you know, I 522 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 2: don't care how great your washing machine is, how high 523 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 2: efficient it is, I don't care how much tie you 524 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 2: put in that thing. 525 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,200 Speaker 4: If you've got a stained stick, oh you'd. 526 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 3: Ruined, you'd ruined the stake. And if you're throwing you out, 527 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 3: it's that bad of a skid. 528 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 2: And they snapped it. They got some fresh underwear. They 529 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,080 Speaker 2: beat the Spurs one twenty seven, one oh six. Any 530 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:54,880 Speaker 2: thoughts on any of those three games? 531 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,760 Speaker 1: Ye had? December eleventh, ninety nine, the last time the 532 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 1: Wizards beat the Spurs. They're starting Rickland and Juwan Howard 533 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:04,639 Speaker 1: and inn Ike Austin. 534 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 2: Austin most player Ike Austin Not that year maybe, but. 535 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:15,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, Richmond watch Richmond was a Wizard. And then Jordan 536 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 1: stole a spot. Steeler anyway Steeler, Yeah, so that was 537 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 1: a while. I think Denny Abdia just just quick quick 538 00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 1: Tizard's love for him. He was ten to twelve last 539 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 1: night using his body. It's in a different, a different 540 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:32,480 Speaker 1: evolution of his game. I thought, just watching him yesterday, 541 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:36,400 Speaker 1: he's young, and I think he's just adding the physical 542 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 1: nature to his game, just getting into the lane and 543 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 1: pushing guys around a bit. It is the Spurs, but 544 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:43,679 Speaker 1: I think he's getting a little bit more confident. The 545 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 1: trade of Ruyachmur opened up some minutes for him, and 546 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:49,480 Speaker 1: he's played in thirty in three of the last four games. 547 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:52,359 Speaker 1: So I think he's getting an increased role and increased confidence. 548 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: I think Denny just needs the confidence. He's got the game. 549 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:55,720 Speaker 1: He's got the game. I love Denny. 550 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:57,520 Speaker 2: Any thoughts on those three games? 551 00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:00,160 Speaker 4: Well, according to the AP, Denny abdy has new nickname 552 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:00,639 Speaker 4: is Turbo. 553 00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 3: I saw this. 554 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 2: I'm gonna check. Let me check Basketball Reference. See how 555 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 2: quick they are at that? 556 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:08,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, I can't imagine. Yeah. Apparently Monty Morris gave him 557 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:10,600 Speaker 4: the nickname all the two were playing one on one. 558 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 4: Morris playfully remarked that Abdiya's hustle reminded him of the 559 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:20,160 Speaker 4: turbo and square move in NBA two K twenty five. 560 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:23,480 Speaker 4: For Turbo Turbodo, I don't look at. 561 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:25,679 Speaker 3: Turbo. 562 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 2: Let me plays hard. He plays hard? Yeah, but yeah, 563 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 2: yeah fast no. 564 00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:34,720 Speaker 4: Not fast no, But he's got an American gladiator's nickname, now, Turbo, Yeah, 565 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:37,680 Speaker 4: was there an American gladiator name oh yeah, yeah, there 566 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 4: had to. 567 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 1: Be perfect a woman female. 568 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:41,760 Speaker 3: No, I thought there was a man Turbo. 569 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:45,359 Speaker 4: I can sort of picture of the Nitro turbot to 570 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 4: be a lot of them eventually. 571 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, Turbo, there was a Turbo. 572 00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 2: His name was gal and Tomlinson. He excelled in most events. 573 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:56,879 Speaker 2: He was maybe the best athlete on the team. Jeez, wow, 574 00:25:56,960 --> 00:26:00,480 Speaker 2: nice Jenny Abdiya the best athlete on the Washington Wizards. 575 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 2: He's probably a better athlete than like Kuzma Porzingis. 576 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:08,679 Speaker 4: I mean, he's Turbo. 577 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 1: I didn't even realize that was a career high twenty 578 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:12,399 Speaker 1: five for it. 579 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:17,639 Speaker 4: Yes, I was surprising, striking man. You can see the 580 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:22,640 Speaker 4: resemblance to Abdia totally. Tank Top Side Park would. 581 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 2: Be cool if like one team, actually the Wizards, I mean, 582 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 2: I know they have a bunch of alternates now, but 583 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 2: they do have the red, white and blue color palette. 584 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,719 Speaker 2: Very American gladiators, like like everybody on the team had 585 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:37,119 Speaker 2: an American gladiator name. Yeah, Turbo and Nitro and Iron. 586 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 4: Yeah she was deaf right, that's right, Yeah, that. 587 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:41,639 Speaker 3: Was your right. 588 00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:47,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, it will be lace, Daniel Gaffer, I think would 589 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 4: be lace. My other takeaway from this. 590 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,680 Speaker 3: I agree with that. I can see that ahead. 591 00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 4: But my other takeaway the Sixers they missed Rivals week. Yeah, 592 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 4: I think they missed Rivals week. They came out the 593 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:03,160 Speaker 4: Magic in the first quarter and basically like this game's over. Yeah, 594 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:04,960 Speaker 4: let's just chill here. And Beid had twenty one in 595 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 4: the first half, just nine in the second half. 596 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:07,440 Speaker 3: Uh. 597 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:08,919 Speaker 4: You know, they won a lot of games in a 598 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 4: row and the Magic are a scrappy team. Plus this 599 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 4: is pretty rare. Actually, the Sixers were on the last 600 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,520 Speaker 4: end of a back to back to back. They had 601 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:21,879 Speaker 4: to win against the Nuggets on Saturday, then they partied 602 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,200 Speaker 4: with Meek Mill and Little Baby at the Eagles game 603 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,159 Speaker 4: on Sunday. Then they had to go to Orlando for 604 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:29,640 Speaker 4: a game on Monday. So you can understand a schedule 605 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:30,920 Speaker 4: loss there for Philadelphia. 606 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 3: I hadn't thought about that. 607 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, though Embiid and Harden did play, so yes, yes. 608 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,520 Speaker 1: But they like, oh, they're upe there. In the second half, 609 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:40,879 Speaker 1: after that big victory, or after the big lead that 610 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:44,320 Speaker 1: they got out to, they just chilled and the Magic 611 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 1: were playing hard. Marcarl Fultz was getting physical. Mo Wagner 612 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 1: got Embiid embarrassed and. 613 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:51,119 Speaker 4: Beat in the fourth quarter a couple of times, I agree. 614 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 4: EmpId flopped on a drive by Moe Wagner that was 615 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:55,159 Speaker 4: comical to me. 616 00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, and he bit on a pump fake. Yeah, very strange, 617 00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:03,119 Speaker 1: very strange. It's going on Wagner's highlight reel for his career. 618 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:04,199 Speaker 3: I imagine, I think. So. 619 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was pretty stuff, and the nets came through 620 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,879 Speaker 1: with their bench. The depth on their bench was monstrous. 621 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 1: While I was watching, I heard the stat that they 622 00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 1: had sixty points from their bench specifically, and now I 623 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:19,880 Speaker 1: keep adding it up and it keeps getting higher and higher. 624 00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:21,480 Speaker 1: So I don't even want to say the number that 625 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:23,680 Speaker 1: I'm seeing here, but it keeps getting higher and higher. 626 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:26,680 Speaker 1: It's something. I think it's sixty six if I'm seeing 627 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 1: that correctly. But big games from Patty and Cam Thomas, 628 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 1: who is a bucket off the bench, both had twenty 629 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:33,920 Speaker 1: one off the bench. 630 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,160 Speaker 4: Camp Thomas smiled, Oh, he doesn't smile. 631 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 3: Made him smile, Yeah, he said, he doesn't smile. Funny 632 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 3: like that. Yeah, that's true. 633 00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 4: That seems a joke, That's what he said. 634 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:48,040 Speaker 3: He was laughing. 635 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:50,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, And for the Magic just back to them quickly. 636 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 2: They are the best worst team in the league. 637 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 1: Right, Magic. 638 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 2: Sure, it's set up here like like a enjoy Walking's 639 00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 2: team with the Wagner's obviously Ban Carro is like hear 640 00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:02,440 Speaker 2: like we've said, like from week one, continue to play 641 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:04,719 Speaker 2: really really well when Carter Junior like, my pieces are 642 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 2: fun and their record I don't have it in front 643 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 2: of me, but it was going around like after a 644 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:11,200 Speaker 2: very very brutal start where they lost a ton of games, 645 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 2: it's very respectable over like the last month. 646 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 4: It's like I think they started six and twenty and 647 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 4: then they're like fifteen and eleven. Yeah, pretty good. So 648 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 4: it's between them and the Lakers for the best bad team. 649 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 3: They're spicy. 650 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:27,720 Speaker 2: Let's see the Eastern Conference standings real quick there, JD. 651 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 2: Thank you sir a JD.

I bet no 686 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 1: thumbs or one lack of thumb. It'd be tough. You 687 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 1: could use a pick. I guess, oh no, I guess 688 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:21,120 Speaker 1: you don't really need them. But no holding guitar anyway. 689 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:23,320 Speaker 1: That's too bad about Holly. 690 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:25,480 Speaker 3: She's okay, she's okay. 691 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 2: Anything any more thoughts before we take our first break 692 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 2: on any of those games. 693 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 3: Last good. 694 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 2: Let's take a first break and when we come back. 695 00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:37,680 Speaker 2: We got a bunch of hypothetical trades in grade. That 696 00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 2: trade don't go anymore. All right, if you're here live 697 00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:43,840 Speaker 2: right now on YouTube, take a second and give a 698 00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:47,600 Speaker 2: thumbs up for the shop teachers out there and there, 699 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 2: uh and they're missing thumbs. 700 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 3: That was a great comment there in the street. 701 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:56,720 Speaker 2: A thumb, that's right, Just hit that. That little thumbs 702 00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 2: up helps us out. 703 00:31:57,920 --> 00:31:58,440 Speaker 3: It doesn't. 704 00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 2: No one really knows. But we like to see those 705 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 2: films very. 706 00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:05,880 Speaker 3: High in numbers. Yes we do, yes, okay, what were 707 00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:06,960 Speaker 3: we gonna do? Yeah? Okay? 708 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:09,880 Speaker 2: We got this latest rumor dump from Schams at the 709 00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 2: Athletic implies that the Raptors are still trying to figure 710 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:14,200 Speaker 2: out what they're gonna do at the deadline. All right, 711 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 2: are the Raptors buyers. Are the Raptors sellers? Are they tinkering? 712 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,440 Speaker 2: Are they rebuilding this whole damn thing, you know, around 713 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:23,000 Speaker 2: a Scottie Barnes or something. But one of the juicier 714 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 2: tidbits in Sham's piece yesterday was related to Raptors head 715 00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 2: coach Nick Nurse. Quote there's been frustration throughout the roster 716 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:33,200 Speaker 2: and staff with the team's play at points of this season, 717 00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 2: and that has been directed toward Nurse at times. Two 718 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:41,280 Speaker 2: according to sources. End quote. Nurse will be entering the 719 00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:45,680 Speaker 2: final season of his current contract this off season. Is 720 00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 2: Raptors coach Nick Nurse on the hot seat? I asked 721 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 2: you that task. 722 00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:50,720 Speaker 3: No, I don't think so. 723 00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 2: Now does he deserve some blame for maybe how disappointing 724 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 2: the season's gone? 725 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 1: Absolutely, And I understand the locker room may not be 726 00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 1: entirely happy with Nick, But I just think this is 727 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 1: a case of everything has gone to poop in the 728 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 1: Raptor's locker room. No one's winning, And I think that's 729 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 1: that's just the case. That's the what what always happens. 730 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:13,080 Speaker 1: Everybody's gonna get some blame, everybody's deserved some blame. But 731 00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:17,280 Speaker 1: he's signed through next season. He's making eight milli as 732 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:20,720 Speaker 1: the report goes, that's plenty for him. I think you 733 00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:22,040 Speaker 1: should be happy with that. I don't think he was 734 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 1: unhappy with this contract by any means. And I think 735 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:26,760 Speaker 1: he's going to see this through until twenty twenty four 736 00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 1: and then you know, we'll decide where we go. 737 00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 2: She don't usually like to have a head coach like 738 00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 2: a lame duck head coach in their you know, final 739 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:38,000 Speaker 2: season of a contract. That's they don't generally NB teams 740 00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:39,920 Speaker 2: don't do that. Sure, not that they couldn't come to 741 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:41,720 Speaker 2: a new contract in the off season. 742 00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 1: Nick Nurse has earned whatever he wants to me. If 743 00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 1: he wants to coach as a lame duck, fine, If 744 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 1: they want to discuss an extension of the off season, 745 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:53,600 Speaker 1: also fine. 746 00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:54,880 Speaker 3: The better coaches in the league and. 747 00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:58,000 Speaker 1: Is he has not gotten the most out of his 748 00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:01,240 Speaker 1: players this season? There's no doubt, not pressed the right buttons. 749 00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:04,640 Speaker 1: Did he believe the Barnes hype train before like everybody 750 00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:07,440 Speaker 1: else and gave him a little too much responsibility? I 751 00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:10,600 Speaker 1: would say yes because it hasn't worked out, but that 752 00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:15,280 Speaker 1: maybe on Scotty Barnes as well. So I do believe 753 00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:17,239 Speaker 1: in Nick Nurse to some degree, so is he on 754 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:19,120 Speaker 1: the hot seat? I think no chance that they're going 755 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:22,120 Speaker 1: to fire him between now and the offseason. No, no chance. 756 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:26,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree. I think it's more lame duck than 757 00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:29,760 Speaker 4: hot seat if you're going for the term here, because 758 00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:32,360 Speaker 4: he's gonna be going into his last season to the contract, 759 00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:35,440 Speaker 4: maybe the message is wearing thin a little bit. The 760 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:37,239 Speaker 4: players are playing a ton of minutes. He's a little 761 00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:40,040 Speaker 4: bit of a Tibbs junior. This season three of the 762 00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:42,840 Speaker 4: top twenty ten minutes per game Raptors last season. For 763 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,480 Speaker 4: the top twenty year before that, it was pascalen Fred. 764 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,200 Speaker 4: It's basically about a playoff rotation for three seasons for 765 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:50,839 Speaker 4: the Raptors, and the results are just not quite there 766 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:54,080 Speaker 4: the way they were right after the championship season. You know, 767 00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:56,880 Speaker 4: they won a playoff series, then they didn't win a 768 00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 4: playoff series, and now they're going to be fighting to 769 00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 4: even get into the playoffs. So maybe next year is 770 00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:03,919 Speaker 4: the last year for Nurse. I don't think they'll fire 771 00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:05,440 Speaker 4: him though, maybe give him a chance to come back, 772 00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:07,239 Speaker 4: or he might want to go somewhere else as well, 773 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:09,040 Speaker 4: depending on what the Raptors do. Here at the deadline. 774 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:10,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you said it their task. There is 775 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 2: blame to go around to everybody, including like the Raptor's 776 00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:16,359 Speaker 2: front office with like limitations of this roster. I mean, 777 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:18,880 Speaker 2: they need a center or a backup center at the 778 00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:21,279 Speaker 2: very least now the precious is back, they could use 779 00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:23,320 Speaker 2: some more guard play, like there are holes in the roster. 780 00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:26,480 Speaker 2: But then Nurse has not been amazing. What he's done 781 00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:28,040 Speaker 2: with some of the guys coming off the bench has 782 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:30,640 Speaker 2: been perplexing at times, especially Chris Bouchet, who at like 783 00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:33,160 Speaker 2: times is thrown out there. Times you don't see for weeks, 784 00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 2: it feels like and so it's odd, and he's like, 785 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:37,480 Speaker 2: I get it, he's trying to like figure things out. 786 00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:39,640 Speaker 2: There's been injuries and all of that, And then there's 787 00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 2: blame on the players too, like in terms of like 788 00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:42,840 Speaker 2: stretches where they've played poorly. 789 00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:44,480 Speaker 3: So yeah, I. 790 00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:46,480 Speaker 2: Don't think he's going anywhere though, And I still think 791 00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:49,200 Speaker 2: Nick Nurse, I do believe is one of the better coaches. 792 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:50,960 Speaker 2: Has proven he's one of the better coaches in the 793 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:55,000 Speaker 2: league in terms of creativity and trying things. But that 794 00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:57,160 Speaker 2: part of like running guys maybe into the ground can 795 00:35:57,280 --> 00:36:00,920 Speaker 2: catch up to you as an organization. We'll see a 796 00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:03,319 Speaker 2: lot of people still think Raptors might make a move 797 00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:06,680 Speaker 2: here with nine or ten days to go, Are they 798 00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:09,239 Speaker 2: moving off one of their core pieces? Are they doing 799 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:12,479 Speaker 2: something to either try and salvage the season or look 800 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:14,160 Speaker 2: forward to the future with some of their star players. 801 00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:17,160 Speaker 2: We'll find out anyway. That deadline is it's like less 802 00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:17,960 Speaker 2: than ten days away. 803 00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:19,400 Speaker 3: Nine days. What do you call it? 804 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:21,719 Speaker 2: Nine days or ten days? It's February ninth. Today's the 805 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:22,919 Speaker 2: thirty first nine. 806 00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:24,279 Speaker 3: Okay, nine days away? 807 00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:27,719 Speaker 1: I go nine counting nin and yesterday. 808 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 2: Bleacher Reports Dan Favallei he dropped his ultimate twenty twenty 809 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:35,719 Speaker 2: three NBA trade deadline cheat sheet. Okay, this thing had 810 00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:40,799 Speaker 2: it all. Untouchable players, notable trade assets, whether teams will 811 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:43,520 Speaker 2: be buyers or sellers at the deadline, incoming and outcoming 812 00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:49,440 Speaker 2: draft picks, salary cap situations, and most importantly, hypothetical trades 813 00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:53,400 Speaker 2: for each team to pursue or at least consider. You know, 814 00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:56,120 Speaker 2: I picked a few of my favorites. So let's run 815 00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:59,040 Speaker 2: back a very popular segment here on No Dunk's called. 816 00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 3: Grade that trade. Yeah, we're in the classroom. We're grading trades. 817 00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:07,359 Speaker 3: Let's do it. 818 00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:12,480 Speaker 2: While we talked about the Mavericks they got to get 819 00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:16,080 Speaker 2: Lucas some help. We event talked about Dangela Russell being 820 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:20,880 Speaker 2: like at times sort of a borderline. No, he's not 821 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 2: an All Star, but you know what I mean, looking 822 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:23,400 Speaker 2: like an All Star at times and then looking like 823 00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:26,000 Speaker 2: a very bad player at other times. Anyway, Dan Favalley 824 00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 2: here has a trade MAVs Wolves. Mavericks get D'Angelo Russell. 825 00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:36,320 Speaker 2: The Wolves get Tim Hardaway, Junior Dwight Powell and the 826 00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:38,560 Speaker 2: twenty twenty seven second round pick, so a future second 827 00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:42,080 Speaker 2: round pick. Thoughts would you like to grade that trade? 828 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:43,120 Speaker 3: T K. 829 00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:48,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, Well this is I forgot. 830 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 2: I forgot we were grading well, hold on, hold on, 831 00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:51,719 Speaker 2: I don't know why there's a Lakers logo here. 832 00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:53,799 Speaker 1: He used to play. D'angela Russell used to play for 833 00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:54,400 Speaker 1: the Lakers. 834 00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:56,600 Speaker 2: We're having one hell of a day in Minnesota. 835 00:37:57,120 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 1: Used to have the Lakers, Minnesota Lakers, many moons, a 836 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 1: lot of lakes there. 837 00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:04,560 Speaker 4: I will grade this trade. 838 00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:06,080 Speaker 1: Water skiing happened. 839 00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:08,160 Speaker 2: Okay, D'Angelo Russell is going to the MAVs in this 840 00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:11,080 Speaker 2: hypothetical trade. The Wolves get Tim Hardaway, Junior Duy Peal 841 00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:12,319 Speaker 2: and that's future second one. 842 00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:14,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, we were just working out the kinks here 843 00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:19,000 Speaker 1: before trade deadline, that's right. Yeah, we'll be negotiations. 844 00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:21,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't mind it. I'll give it a B, 845 00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:26,200 Speaker 4: solid B, solid B on the old report card. It 846 00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:29,480 Speaker 4: would be the Mavericks going all in on offense because 847 00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:33,040 Speaker 4: eventually you're gonna have to play Luca Obviously, you're gonna 848 00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:35,080 Speaker 4: have to play D'Angelo Russell because you just traded for him, 849 00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:36,879 Speaker 4: and you're gonna have to play Spencer Didnouody because he's 850 00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,000 Speaker 4: one of your best players. So you got those three. 851 00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:44,360 Speaker 4: Christian would eventually, whenever he's back, that's four offense first players. 852 00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:47,720 Speaker 4: Dorian Phinney Smith would guess have to guard every single 853 00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:51,440 Speaker 4: player out there. He's likely the only other guy that 854 00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:54,759 Speaker 4: you're going. But with Russell's contract coming into an end 855 00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:56,640 Speaker 4: at the end of the season, this gives the Mavericks 856 00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:59,680 Speaker 4: a chance to chase again, to chase somebody in the 857 00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:01,839 Speaker 4: off season when they also have access to a bunch 858 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:04,680 Speaker 4: of picks. I like it a little bit less. For 859 00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:07,600 Speaker 4: the timber Wolves. You get Tim Hardaway Junior on a 860 00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:11,080 Speaker 4: long deal at a decent price, but Dwight Powell could 861 00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:14,959 Speaker 4: maybe replace nas Reed if Minnesota decides to trade nas Reed. 862 00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:17,640 Speaker 4: So I think it's okay, you know, I think this 863 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:20,120 Speaker 4: is the kind of trade where it's like okay for 864 00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:22,360 Speaker 4: both teams. Yeah, which means it's realistic. 865 00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:25,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, I go lower. I'm not really excited about it. 866 00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,959 Speaker 1: I can see it from the MAVs perspective, they get help. 867 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,400 Speaker 1: I think that was the way this trade was designed. 868 00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:35,359 Speaker 1: Dangel Russell comes in obviously some defensive worries big time. 869 00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:38,440 Speaker 1: But you do get another ball handler, you get some offense, 870 00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:41,920 Speaker 1: but you lack some defense and that's a big problem. 871 00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:44,439 Speaker 1: I mean, he really is not as good as Jalen 872 00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 1: Brunson was last year, and so you you you're just 873 00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:49,680 Speaker 1: gonna be struggling on the defensive end. So that's the 874 00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 1: worry there. You gave up, you know, a decent amount 875 00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:54,960 Speaker 1: for him. On the other side, the Wolves there getting 876 00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:58,200 Speaker 1: Tim Hardaway, dwy Pellet and that twenty twenty second round pick. 877 00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:00,400 Speaker 1: I don't like it all that much. I think you 878 00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:04,120 Speaker 1: see Tim Hardaway will be taking minutes from like connecting 879 00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:07,759 Speaker 1: type guys like maybe Torrian Prince, Ky Kylie Anderson, a 880 00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:11,280 Speaker 1: young Jalen Noel or Austin Rivers even or Jordan McLoughlin even, 881 00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:13,799 Speaker 1: I don't think that's really recipe for success for them. 882 00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:17,120 Speaker 1: And Dwight Powell. Yeah, maybe long term he helps fill 883 00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:18,960 Speaker 1: the whole Nas Read, but he's not gonna play now 884 00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:21,359 Speaker 1: behind go Bear Towns and Read. He's not gonna play 885 00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:24,080 Speaker 1: this season. I don't think. I think the Timberwolves would 886 00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:28,120 Speaker 1: be smarter a little little u turn here if they 887 00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:31,520 Speaker 1: go to Denver, who is rumored to be trading Bones 888 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:35,000 Speaker 1: Highland and they need depth. If you go two for 889 00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:38,879 Speaker 1: one with your depth for Bones Highland. This doesn't work 890 00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:41,960 Speaker 1: out exactly, but it could with their trade exception and 891 00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:45,160 Speaker 1: a third team Torrian Prince and Nas Reed for Bones Highland, 892 00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:48,200 Speaker 1: I think would help the Nuggets. They just need to 893 00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:50,720 Speaker 1: get They get a backup center, they get a little 894 00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:54,200 Speaker 1: wing help and Torrian Prince just guys who play hard 895 00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:56,719 Speaker 1: off the bench, and you know it can be it 896 00:40:56,719 --> 00:41:00,400 Speaker 1: can be a smart connector and you don't have Owns 897 00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:04,160 Speaker 1: Highlands shot selection problems that the Nuggets have been struggling 898 00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:06,279 Speaker 1: with a little bit. But the Timberwolves can you know, 899 00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:08,040 Speaker 1: take a flyer on a young guy that can help 900 00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:10,560 Speaker 1: out just score the ball because they need a little 901 00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:14,200 Speaker 1: bit more dynamic scoring, and that's why Tim Hardaway kind 902 00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:16,040 Speaker 1: of fits for the Wolves. But I think that would 903 00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:19,000 Speaker 1: be a smarter move. But I hear the idea there. 904 00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:22,239 Speaker 2: All right, let's move on here, JD to our next 905 00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:25,560 Speaker 2: trade here from Dan fa Valley of Bleacher Report. Pelicans 906 00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:33,320 Speaker 2: receive Malik Beasley. The Jazz receive Davante Graham, Herb Jones, 907 00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:36,160 Speaker 2: and a twenty twenty four second round pick by way 908 00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:40,399 Speaker 2: of the Bulls. So Beasley the key piece here going 909 00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:43,000 Speaker 2: to the Pelicans. Some three point shooting guy gets them up. 910 00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:46,480 Speaker 2: It's been a decent clip and the Jazz get Devanta 911 00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:49,279 Speaker 2: Graham and Herb Jones. There any thoughts you gotta started here? 912 00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:54,160 Speaker 1: Task grade that trade pels very high? They're high. They 913 00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:58,000 Speaker 1: are happy with the return of Herb Jones, especially for 914 00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:01,480 Speaker 1: Malik beas Jess. Yeah, the Jazz got to be extremely 915 00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:04,040 Speaker 1: happy to get Herb Jones from Malik Beasley. You hear 916 00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:09,080 Speaker 1: Danny Ainge wants the og An Andobe rumored types, so 917 00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:10,600 Speaker 1: I think, you know, Herb Jones would be a little 918 00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:12,879 Speaker 1: bit of a downgrade from that, but they want those 919 00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:15,239 Speaker 1: three and D type guys to go around who they 920 00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:17,120 Speaker 1: believe is a star and is a star this season 921 00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:19,759 Speaker 1: in Lowry Mark and so I think it makes a 922 00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:22,520 Speaker 1: lot of sense from their perspective and from the Jazz. Yeah, 923 00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:25,600 Speaker 1: you're getting a shooter and a score. It does make 924 00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:29,880 Speaker 1: sense on both sides. Will Malik beasily get the minutes 925 00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:33,480 Speaker 1: on this team because they are pretty log jammed if 926 00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:35,600 Speaker 1: you want to score, it sort of makes sense. Giving 927 00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:40,279 Speaker 1: up on Herb Jones's would peeve a lot of Palace fans, 928 00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:42,840 Speaker 1: I think, But with the way Traymer for you, the 929 00:42:42,880 --> 00:42:45,279 Speaker 1: third has come along, I guess you give up on them. 930 00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:47,080 Speaker 1: I don't. It seems like a little bit much for 931 00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:49,640 Speaker 1: Malik Beasley, but it does make logical sense with their 932 00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:51,720 Speaker 1: rotation to have a score on their team. 933 00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:55,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, the Pelicans definitely need shooting, but I think the 934 00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:58,799 Speaker 4: Jazz have to love Herb Jones to do this and 935 00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:01,800 Speaker 4: also pay the next two years of Devonte Graham's salary. 936 00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:08,000 Speaker 4: So I personally wouldn't do this from either perspective, Cuz 937 00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:10,239 Speaker 4: you know, I don't think I want Malie Beasley taking 938 00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:14,160 Speaker 4: minutes from Trey Murphy, the third, who definitely has surpassed 939 00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:16,160 Speaker 4: Herb Jones in my book, And also the way the 940 00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:19,799 Speaker 4: Pelicans have struggled with Zion and ingram Out, I don't 941 00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:22,040 Speaker 4: think they need to push all in on this season. 942 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:24,120 Speaker 4: I think they should make moves in the off season. 943 00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:26,520 Speaker 4: And you know, there's a lot of hype around Herb 944 00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:29,440 Speaker 4: Jones last year that's definitely fallen away this season as 945 00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:32,360 Speaker 4: he's really struggled with this shot but a promising prospect. 946 00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:35,680 Speaker 4: I don't necessarily think I would do this just to 947 00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:37,440 Speaker 4: potentially get Beasley Chuck in threes. 948 00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:41,759 Speaker 2: Okay, drop that one there, JD. Let's move on the Grizzlies. 949 00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:47,440 Speaker 2: They're getting Kyle Kuzma. Oh what cous going to the Grizzlies. 950 00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:52,160 Speaker 2: According to Dan Favelli's hypothetical trade here, Wizards received Danny Green, 951 00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:56,799 Speaker 2: David the Body, Roddy, and a twenty twenty four first 952 00:43:56,840 --> 00:44:00,839 Speaker 2: round pick lottery protected Okay, yeah, what do you think 953 00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:03,040 Speaker 2: Kus to the Grizzly. 954 00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:06,360 Speaker 4: Send it, send it, send it you like it. This 955 00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:09,800 Speaker 4: is a great trade. Great trade both sides, great trade 956 00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:17,520 Speaker 4: both sides. This is Kuzma is exactly what the Grizzlies need, shooting, defense, rebounding, size, veteranship, 957 00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:19,960 Speaker 4: if you will. The only concern for me is that 958 00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:23,680 Speaker 4: the Grizzlies love to draft, and they actually hit on 959 00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:26,160 Speaker 4: late first rounders. So they want to trade a late 960 00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:28,480 Speaker 4: first round pick for somebody who's twenty seven years old 961 00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:30,600 Speaker 4: who they then have to sign to a bigger deal 962 00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:33,640 Speaker 4: in the offseason. That would give me a little bit 963 00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:36,040 Speaker 4: of pause. But I think Kuzma's a difference making player 964 00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:38,120 Speaker 4: for a team like the Grizzlies, So I would be 965 00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:41,279 Speaker 4: fine giving up on the idea of Danny Green, who 966 00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:42,920 Speaker 4: will see what he has left in the tank when 967 00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:46,240 Speaker 4: he gets back on the court. David Roddy an interesting 968 00:44:46,280 --> 00:44:48,560 Speaker 4: prospect and interesting shaped guy at the very least, and 969 00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:51,080 Speaker 4: then that picked. So I don't know the Grizzlies. I 970 00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:53,600 Speaker 4: think the thing the Grizzlies are most excited about that 971 00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:55,719 Speaker 4: they would be given up is that first round pick, 972 00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:57,960 Speaker 4: because they like having the cost certainty of that kind 973 00:44:58,000 --> 00:44:59,520 Speaker 4: of stuff. But I think it's worth it for a 974 00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:00,200 Speaker 4: guy like this. 975 00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:03,200 Speaker 2: Is the Grizzlies in theoriyous hypothetical like going for it 976 00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:06,000 Speaker 2: here seeing the opening, saying, damn we could we could 977 00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:08,080 Speaker 2: get to a files here, and Kuzma like, maybe bumps 978 00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:09,040 Speaker 2: us up a level or two. 979 00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:09,960 Speaker 3: You like us? 980 00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:13,840 Speaker 1: Absolutely, I think they should go for it. The Danny 981 00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:16,360 Speaker 1: Green part of it is maybe they just try to 982 00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:18,759 Speaker 1: see what Danny Green gives them in that Kuzma role. 983 00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:22,800 Speaker 1: He is that literally, you know, an old version of 984 00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:26,840 Speaker 1: Kyle Kuzman away three time champ does the three and 985 00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:32,040 Speaker 1: d Ing has some attitude there to help out, you know, 986 00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:35,319 Speaker 1: won't get in the way. Kuz I think will be 987 00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:38,280 Speaker 1: fine with the attitude that the Grizzlies have, like he'll he'll, 988 00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:41,080 Speaker 1: he'll fit in, So it makes sense. 989 00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:42,400 Speaker 3: The problem is you'd have to pay him that. 990 00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:43,360 Speaker 4: That's the problem. 991 00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:45,520 Speaker 1: I think they have enough first round picks to say 992 00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:48,239 Speaker 1: buy to one of them. It looks like, you know, 993 00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:50,680 Speaker 1: reading their their chart here, like they have a bunch 994 00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:52,839 Speaker 1: to send. So I think they'd be fine sending one. 995 00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:56,480 Speaker 1: You'd get a talented guy in Kuzma. But the worrisome 996 00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:58,880 Speaker 1: part is does Kuzma just you know, does he blend 997 00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:01,239 Speaker 1: into this team. He's not a starter on this team. 998 00:46:01,239 --> 00:46:04,600 Speaker 1: I highly doubt with is it Who's he gonna start over? 999 00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:08,560 Speaker 1: Jared Jackson Junior and Steven Adams have to start? He's 1000 00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:11,279 Speaker 1: gonna start over Dylan Brooks? I doubt it, all right, 1001 00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:14,320 Speaker 1: I don't think so, So get you guess. 1002 00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:16,640 Speaker 2: In terms of matchups, and maybe you don't start at them. 1003 00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:17,239 Speaker 3: You know there are. 1004 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:20,799 Speaker 1: Secular match No, it makes it makes sense. We will 1005 00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:23,279 Speaker 1: kus be fine with that long term. I don't know. 1006 00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:25,080 Speaker 1: I don't know if he signs there, so I guess 1007 00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:27,480 Speaker 1: that that's the worrisome part for the Grizzlies. 1008 00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:29,520 Speaker 2: Okay, overall though, you guys seem to like that one. 1009 00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:33,080 Speaker 2: Good Dan, All right, next one, let's go to the 1010 00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:37,239 Speaker 2: Eastern Conference Miami Heat. They are the winners of boy 1011 00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:41,440 Speaker 2: On Bogdanovic. Again, hypothetical trade here. The Pistons in return 1012 00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:46,640 Speaker 2: get Duncan Robinson in that contract, Jovic Nikolo Jovic not Yokic. 1013 00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:49,839 Speaker 2: Okay uh and a twenty three first round pick top 1014 00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:54,279 Speaker 2: four protected and a twenty eight second round pick. Bogdanovitch 1015 00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:57,080 Speaker 2: going to the Heat, GK, what do you think of 1016 00:46:57,120 --> 00:46:57,480 Speaker 2: this one? 1017 00:46:57,520 --> 00:46:57,719 Speaker 3: Here? 1018 00:46:57,880 --> 00:46:59,399 Speaker 2: Is there something to it? 1019 00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:01,920 Speaker 4: It's great if you're the Heat. This is exactly what 1020 00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:04,800 Speaker 4: they need. Boy On Bogdanovich, a shooter with some size. 1021 00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:09,000 Speaker 4: He would basically be their Jay Crowder slash PJ. Tucker replacement, 1022 00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:12,400 Speaker 4: the stretch four that they have kind of been lacking 1023 00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:15,920 Speaker 4: since those guys left the team. I don't necessarily know 1024 00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:19,000 Speaker 4: if this is the best deal the Pistons could get, however, 1025 00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:21,719 Speaker 4: because if this is a top four protected pick after 1026 00:47:21,760 --> 00:47:25,680 Speaker 4: this season, yeah, the Pistons would be getting it from Miami, 1027 00:47:25,719 --> 00:47:28,440 Speaker 4: but it's gonna be what in the teens, maybe in 1028 00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:31,400 Speaker 4: the twenties. Perhaps they can find a better deal there. 1029 00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:34,200 Speaker 4: And I don't know if they necessarily want to pay 1030 00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:37,960 Speaker 4: Duncan Robinson the next three seasons of his contract, though 1031 00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:41,120 Speaker 4: he did play college basketball for the University of Michigan, 1032 00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:43,520 Speaker 4: so you could pitch him as a Michigan man returning home, 1033 00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:45,719 Speaker 4: or you could more likely try and re rout him 1034 00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:47,359 Speaker 4: somewhere else. But there don't seem to be that many 1035 00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:49,759 Speaker 4: takers here, so it seems unlikely to me that this 1036 00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:52,120 Speaker 4: would get done. But I can see why Miami would 1037 00:47:52,120 --> 00:47:52,400 Speaker 4: want to. 1038 00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:56,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, Miami send it, in no doubt for them, But 1039 00:47:56,360 --> 00:48:01,320 Speaker 1: similar to the Jazz Pelicans deal, you'd be getting Duncan 1040 00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:03,840 Speaker 1: Robinson's contract back if you're the Pistons, and you wouldn't 1041 00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:06,200 Speaker 1: be getting a great first round pick either. 1042 00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:09,399 Speaker 2: So but a first round pick, and if you're high 1043 00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:11,320 Speaker 2: on Yovich as a potential. 1044 00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:12,920 Speaker 1: You gotta be high on Yo. Yeah, sure, So I'm 1045 00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:15,000 Speaker 1: not sure I'm not sure if you if they are 1046 00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:19,280 Speaker 1: high on Yovich, but I do think the Pistons receiving 1047 00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:22,359 Speaker 1: a first round pick is what they're going to get 1048 00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:24,840 Speaker 1: if they do move off of Boyan Mgdanovich. All this 1049 00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:27,600 Speaker 1: posturing is all fun games right now? Two first round 1050 00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:31,520 Speaker 1: picks bring it ain't gonna happen. The Jazz traded Boyan 1051 00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:35,680 Speaker 1: Mugdanovic last year to the Pistons for Kelly Olinik, Saban 1052 00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:39,279 Speaker 1: Lee and cash, and this return would be great for 1053 00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:41,720 Speaker 1: Troy Weaver and the Pistons. This would be an upgrade 1054 00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:45,080 Speaker 1: in that first round pick. Especially, you gotta be happy 1055 00:48:45,080 --> 00:48:46,680 Speaker 1: with the first round pick. Again, you'd probably want to 1056 00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:48,680 Speaker 1: be a little bit better and you probably like, I 1057 00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:51,839 Speaker 1: don't know how high they are on Yovic, but yeah, 1058 00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:54,400 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think they do this because contract 1059 00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:57,160 Speaker 1: for Robinson maybe not the best player that they can 1060 00:48:57,200 --> 00:48:59,560 Speaker 1: get and try and get a better first round pick. 1061 00:48:59,600 --> 00:49:02,520 Speaker 1: But yeah, it makes sense, go get a great pick. 1062 00:49:02,600 --> 00:49:04,680 Speaker 1: I think that's what the Pistons should be looking for, all. 1063 00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:07,960 Speaker 2: Right, Final one. A lot of these trades in Dan's 1064 00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:11,920 Speaker 2: Ultimate twenty twenty three NBA Trade deadline cheat sheet Very realistic, right, 1065 00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:14,520 Speaker 2: like very like you know not maybe the biggest, biggest, 1066 00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:16,200 Speaker 2: biggest names in the world, but you're like, okay, I 1067 00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:17,440 Speaker 2: can see how that could help that team, and that 1068 00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:19,120 Speaker 2: could help that team. There was a couple three team deals, 1069 00:49:19,160 --> 00:49:21,000 Speaker 2: you know, it gets a little convoluted, but this one 1070 00:49:21,080 --> 00:49:23,760 Speaker 2: actually like was like whoa what huh? 1071 00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:25,280 Speaker 3: I wanted to throw it at everybody. 1072 00:49:25,320 --> 00:49:29,360 Speaker 2: Here it is the Hornets trading for Ben Simmons and 1073 00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:33,520 Speaker 2: Joe Harris, with the Nets getting in return Gordon Hayward, Kelly, 1074 00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:36,759 Speaker 2: Hubray Junior and Mason Plumley the plumb Dog the dog. 1075 00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:41,440 Speaker 2: So this one it stopped me in my tracks. But 1076 00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:44,480 Speaker 2: I need you to grade that trade Hornets nets hypothetical 1077 00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:48,160 Speaker 2: Ben Simmons to Charlotte and Hayward, Kelly and the plum 1078 00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:49,360 Speaker 2: Dog going to Brooklyn. 1079 00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:50,640 Speaker 3: What do you think? 1080 00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:54,000 Speaker 4: Why would the Hornets do this? 1081 00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:56,439 Speaker 1: Man? Why would the Net? 1082 00:49:57,160 --> 00:49:57,680 Speaker 3: This is why? 1083 00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:03,879 Speaker 4: Okay, Unfortunately this is an f because I just can't 1084 00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:07,200 Speaker 4: understand why Charlotte would do this for Ben Simmons. That's 1085 00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:08,279 Speaker 4: that's why they would do this. 1086 00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:11,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, I mean it's not like those three guys 1087 00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:13,200 Speaker 2: that are going to Brooklyn are part of their long 1088 00:50:13,280 --> 00:50:14,520 Speaker 2: term plans, right. 1089 00:50:14,560 --> 00:50:15,640 Speaker 3: I think we'd agree with that. 1090 00:50:16,000 --> 00:50:20,040 Speaker 2: So it's the hope of like Ben Simmons fingers crossed, 1091 00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:24,560 Speaker 2: still enjoys basketball, would still like to play at an 1092 00:50:24,600 --> 00:50:27,800 Speaker 2: All star level, can be a difference maker. That's you 1093 00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:29,759 Speaker 2: your You're praying and hoping that's the case. 1094 00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:32,280 Speaker 1: But even this version of Ben Simmons that we're seeing 1095 00:50:32,320 --> 00:50:36,120 Speaker 1: right now, a solid defender who scores, you know, for 1096 00:50:36,160 --> 00:50:39,520 Speaker 1: a six minute stretch every game, is better than anything 1097 00:50:39,560 --> 00:50:40,960 Speaker 1: that the Hornets are sending back. 1098 00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:44,880 Speaker 4: Really, Mason Plumley is better than Ben Simmons is right now. Gee, 1099 00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:53,040 Speaker 4: I mean, unfortunately, it's true. Mason plays all the time. 1100 00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:56,920 Speaker 4: Mason Plumley puts up numbers. Somebody's shooting a better percentage 1101 00:50:56,920 --> 00:51:00,560 Speaker 4: from the free throw line the Ben Simmons. I also 1102 00:51:00,560 --> 00:51:04,000 Speaker 4: wouldn't do this if I'm the Nets, unless unless, okay, 1103 00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:06,160 Speaker 4: I can get PJ Washington instead of Kelly, you ber 1104 00:51:06,920 --> 00:51:09,359 Speaker 4: not even playing. It works in the trade machine if 1105 00:51:09,400 --> 00:51:12,319 Speaker 4: you throw in a PJ instead of Kelly, I think 1106 00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:15,920 Speaker 4: getting Gordon Hayward the few games he's gonna play for 1107 00:51:16,520 --> 00:51:19,120 Speaker 4: he's your new Ben Simmons. But maybe, just maybe he's 1108 00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:21,520 Speaker 4: healthy in the playoffs and can make a three pointer 1109 00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:24,000 Speaker 4: off the bench. PJ Washington, a little bit of size. 1110 00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:27,640 Speaker 4: Mason Plumley, a solid center at this point in his career, 1111 00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:30,480 Speaker 4: reunited with the Brooklyn Nets, where he was once a 1112 00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:32,319 Speaker 4: slam dunk contest participants. 1113 00:51:32,400 --> 00:51:37,040 Speaker 2: Right, yeah, he bring him home. I forgot he jumped 1114 00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:38,759 Speaker 2: over miles and that don't go. 1115 00:51:38,920 --> 00:51:39,919 Speaker 4: That's right, that's right. 1116 00:51:40,719 --> 00:51:42,720 Speaker 1: They would use him this year. There's no doubt he'd 1117 00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:46,440 Speaker 1: be a filler for backup minutes and it would help 1118 00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:50,000 Speaker 1: when Nick Claxton gets in foul trouble or whatever. But 1119 00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:53,080 Speaker 1: he is, you know, thirty plus, he's thirty two now 1120 00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:56,719 Speaker 1: and you're trading him for Ben Simmons, who obviously isn't 1121 00:51:56,719 --> 00:52:00,919 Speaker 1: the Ben Simmons of old, but it's still still. 1122 00:52:01,120 --> 00:52:03,719 Speaker 4: Jason Plumbley is twelve and ten with forrest as the 1123 00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:04,720 Speaker 4: game this season. 1124 00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:05,799 Speaker 3: He's too good, so. 1125 00:52:05,760 --> 00:52:07,759 Speaker 2: He's hurting the Hornets tank job here. 1126 00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:09,760 Speaker 4: Sixty two percent from the free throw line. 1127 00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:12,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, which is like sixteen percentage points better than Ben Simmons. 1128 00:52:12,880 --> 00:52:18,600 Speaker 1: Put him in the hall. Baby. Yeah, Ben is not scoring, 1129 00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:21,960 Speaker 1: that's true. That's the problem with Ben Simmons. 1130 00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:25,239 Speaker 4: He's also not that good of a defender because he's 1131 00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:27,399 Speaker 4: now a big man, because he can't handle the ball 1132 00:52:27,440 --> 00:52:29,000 Speaker 4: because he doesn't want to go to the free throw 1133 00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:30,960 Speaker 4: line and doesn't look to score. So now he's a 1134 00:52:31,000 --> 00:52:33,920 Speaker 4: four to five and he's not a rim defender. He's 1135 00:52:33,960 --> 00:52:36,680 Speaker 4: like a point guard. He used to his strength was 1136 00:52:36,680 --> 00:52:39,000 Speaker 4: that he was huge and fast enough to guard point guards. 1137 00:52:39,280 --> 00:52:41,880 Speaker 4: Now he's a backup center. Mason Plumley knows how to 1138 00:52:42,160 --> 00:52:44,680 Speaker 4: play center. I can't believe it. Mason Plumley is better 1139 00:52:44,680 --> 00:52:46,040 Speaker 4: than Ben Simmons's wild stuff. 1140 00:52:46,160 --> 00:52:48,880 Speaker 1: Well, Ben Simmons is guarding perimeter players. I know he's 1141 00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:51,799 Speaker 1: forced to guard Biggs, but he is when they need 1142 00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:54,080 Speaker 1: somebody to guard a perimeter player, he goes and does it. 1143 00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:58,400 Speaker 1: He doesn't fit well in Brooklyn at times. Yeah, he 1144 00:52:58,719 --> 00:53:01,640 Speaker 1: plays a big man role because of who they have 1145 00:53:01,760 --> 00:53:04,920 Speaker 1: on their team. They got shooters, but he's still a 1146 00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:09,520 Speaker 1: good defitter. And they The thing is, you would trade 1147 00:53:09,920 --> 00:53:14,520 Speaker 1: for a thirty two year old, and you would just 1148 00:53:14,560 --> 00:53:18,960 Speaker 1: lose the hope that the possibility, the potential of Ben Simmons. 1149 00:53:19,040 --> 00:53:22,480 Speaker 4: It's gone. It's gone, and that's agree. It's gone. And 1150 00:53:22,600 --> 00:53:24,120 Speaker 4: US fans are already out on Ben Simmons. 1151 00:53:24,160 --> 00:53:25,000 Speaker 3: That's why they should do this. 1152 00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:27,160 Speaker 2: That's why the Hornets should also do this trade though, 1153 00:53:27,200 --> 00:53:30,480 Speaker 2: because I mean, Charlotte is the exact place Ben Simmons 1154 00:53:30,520 --> 00:53:34,720 Speaker 2: should end up in where nobody cares and nobody's watching them, 1155 00:53:34,800 --> 00:53:37,360 Speaker 2: and nobody's talking about the misfree throws or the you know, 1156 00:53:37,520 --> 00:53:39,440 Speaker 2: lack of pressure on the rim. Like this would be 1157 00:53:39,480 --> 00:53:41,680 Speaker 2: like basically a Markel Foltz two point zero here, where 1158 00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:43,520 Speaker 2: it's like a guy goes somewhere. He goes to Atlanta, 1159 00:53:43,600 --> 00:53:45,480 Speaker 2: and I was like, okay, and then it's like suddenly, 1160 00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:47,400 Speaker 2: then like a year or two later, was like, oh, 1161 00:53:47,440 --> 00:53:49,920 Speaker 2: he's playing okay, all right, because there's not that scrutiny. 1162 00:53:49,960 --> 00:53:52,080 Speaker 2: It's not that like every possession, every quarter and stuff 1163 00:53:52,080 --> 00:53:53,640 Speaker 2: like that. And that's almost not even the case with 1164 00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:57,200 Speaker 2: Ben Simmons anymore, because to tk's point, everyone's like, the 1165 00:53:57,200 --> 00:53:59,719 Speaker 2: guy doesn't seem to care. He honestly just doesn't seem 1166 00:53:59,760 --> 00:54:01,719 Speaker 2: to like basketball when it gets down to it, and 1167 00:54:01,719 --> 00:54:02,920 Speaker 2: people are like, all right. 1168 00:54:02,880 --> 00:54:03,600 Speaker 3: He is what he is. 1169 00:54:03,960 --> 00:54:06,319 Speaker 2: Guy makes thirty five to forty million dollars the next 1170 00:54:06,360 --> 00:54:09,680 Speaker 2: couple of years. Oh geez, okay, but Charlotte is not 1171 00:54:09,760 --> 00:54:13,000 Speaker 2: giving up a ton here, And at least I guess 1172 00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:14,960 Speaker 2: my point is, you can sell the dream of Ben 1173 00:54:15,040 --> 00:54:17,719 Speaker 2: Simmons getting back to all star level, Ben Simmons and 1174 00:54:17,760 --> 00:54:21,040 Speaker 2: Charlotte to your fan base with Lamello and whatever more 1175 00:54:21,080 --> 00:54:24,160 Speaker 2: than you can Gordon Hayward and a plumb Dog and 1176 00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:25,000 Speaker 2: Kelly Junior. 1177 00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:27,640 Speaker 4: Obviously, I agree they should trade those guys. Yeah, I'd 1178 00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:28,480 Speaker 4: rather get picks back. 1179 00:54:28,600 --> 00:54:30,000 Speaker 3: Okay, Okay, that's fair, that's good point. 1180 00:54:30,080 --> 00:54:34,759 Speaker 1: So the Nets traded James Harden for Mason Plumbley in 1181 00:54:34,840 --> 00:54:39,440 Speaker 1: the end. Wow, a guy you could literally get for 1182 00:54:40,080 --> 00:54:43,760 Speaker 1: at the you know, on August twenty seventh, when everybody 1183 00:54:43,840 --> 00:54:47,600 Speaker 1: signing for minimum contracts and the Nets traded, you know, 1184 00:54:47,640 --> 00:54:50,400 Speaker 1: if you want to go trade ancestry, they traded Jared 1185 00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:53,879 Speaker 1: Allen for James Harden to get you know, to make 1186 00:54:53,920 --> 00:54:55,879 Speaker 1: this happen in that wild four way deal, and they 1187 00:54:55,880 --> 00:54:59,000 Speaker 1: traded Ben Simmons to the Hornets. 1188 00:54:59,360 --> 00:55:01,800 Speaker 4: Is that what's gonna happened for Mason Plumbly. 1189 00:55:02,440 --> 00:55:04,120 Speaker 1: So this is one of those no no, no, no, 1190 00:55:04,120 --> 00:55:06,319 Speaker 1: no yes trades. That's what it sounds like. It sounds like, 1191 00:55:06,360 --> 00:55:10,160 Speaker 1: you know, a shot going up that shouldn't be made. 1192 00:55:10,200 --> 00:55:13,000 Speaker 1: But it's like a trade shouldn't be made. But I 1193 00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:13,880 Speaker 1: guess it's could. 1194 00:55:14,480 --> 00:55:17,000 Speaker 2: I don't know, it won't but it's a fun one 1195 00:55:17,040 --> 00:55:19,440 Speaker 2: to debate. I'm glad we bought it, slipped it in 1196 00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:21,360 Speaker 2: there thanks to Dan. There bleacher repacs to all of 1197 00:55:21,400 --> 00:55:23,600 Speaker 2: those trades.

Results last night? Oh boy, I took the 1205 00:55:37,600 --> 00:55:41,000 Speaker 2: rap soda task. That's a loss. Suns covered the two 1206 00:55:41,040 --> 00:55:42,320 Speaker 2: and a half points spread at home. 1207 00:55:42,760 --> 00:55:44,359 Speaker 3: TK got it right. He's fourteen and six. 1208 00:55:44,400 --> 00:55:45,280 Speaker 2: This guy's on fire. 1209 00:55:46,360 --> 00:55:47,240 Speaker 3: I'm six and fourteen. 1210 00:55:47,280 --> 00:55:50,640 Speaker 2: I'm the opposite. You're nine to eleven. Not bad, not great. 1211 00:55:50,880 --> 00:55:51,680 Speaker 1: They're not bad enough. 1212 00:55:52,440 --> 00:55:53,919 Speaker 3: Tonight's game, where are we going? 1213 00:55:54,640 --> 00:55:58,360 Speaker 1: We're going to New York Madison Square Garden. Wolla. Lebron 1214 00:55:59,320 --> 00:56:00,880 Speaker 1: and Anthony will be playing. 1215 00:56:01,239 --> 00:56:03,480 Speaker 2: Well, there is Lebron playing, for sure, he'd better be. 1216 00:56:03,640 --> 00:56:04,840 Speaker 3: I don't think it's confirmed. 1217 00:56:05,440 --> 00:56:07,200 Speaker 4: What did Darvin Ham say? Serious? 1218 00:56:07,600 --> 00:56:10,640 Speaker 2: Yeah? 1219 00:56:10,680 --> 00:56:12,600 Speaker 1: I did not see that report from Darvin. 1220 00:56:12,880 --> 00:56:18,840 Speaker 2: His knees are sore from dropping to them after being upset. 1221 00:56:18,960 --> 00:56:21,360 Speaker 1: The beck is sore from rolling around on the floor. 1222 00:56:21,480 --> 00:56:25,080 Speaker 1: It's possible. I suppose that he sits out and time's 1223 00:56:25,640 --> 00:56:28,239 Speaker 1: passing of Kareem for when he wants it. But we 1224 00:56:28,360 --> 00:56:30,799 Speaker 1: just expected him to play in Madison Square Garden on 1225 00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:34,920 Speaker 1: this tour here. And I also picked this game because 1226 00:56:34,960 --> 00:56:38,840 Speaker 1: we will be watching it live on playback. The Knicks 1227 00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:43,319 Speaker 1: at home favored by two and a half. Train I 1228 00:56:43,360 --> 00:56:45,120 Speaker 1: think that the Lakers, you know, getting those couple of 1229 00:56:45,160 --> 00:56:47,520 Speaker 1: points will take care of business. Skeets White. He liked 1230 00:56:47,560 --> 00:56:48,040 Speaker 1: the Knicks. 1231 00:56:48,120 --> 00:56:51,239 Speaker 2: Oh man, I've had a brutal run here in January, 1232 00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:55,799 Speaker 2: but during our playback games when we have had that 1233 00:56:55,880 --> 00:56:59,680 Speaker 2: game as our pick on line, I'm solid. 1234 00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:02,600 Speaker 1: Wow, you're tracking your playback picks. Amazing. 1235 00:57:02,640 --> 00:57:05,240 Speaker 2: I think I'm only one to know in those games. 1236 00:57:05,280 --> 00:57:09,120 Speaker 2: But better than six or fourteen, thanks baby. Come on, 1237 00:57:09,160 --> 00:57:10,040 Speaker 2: what are you talking about? 1238 00:57:10,200 --> 00:57:10,839 Speaker 3: Julius Randall. 1239 00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:15,000 Speaker 2: It's his old team Lebron or not Kidney. I've been 1240 00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:17,560 Speaker 2: a struggling thirty eight points for Julius Ryandaalds tonight walking 1241 00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:20,280 Speaker 2: like that, five made threes, brunts in with a cool 1242 00:57:20,280 --> 00:57:23,520 Speaker 2: twenty eight, probably a clutch jumper late, and then we 1243 00:57:23,560 --> 00:57:26,280 Speaker 2: get into a foul situation and they cover next by 1244 00:57:26,280 --> 00:57:30,440 Speaker 2: four see you tonight on playback. No reason, now, just 1245 00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:31,400 Speaker 2: told you what's gonna happen. 1246 00:57:31,840 --> 00:57:36,480 Speaker 3: Let's get to tweeted the night, tweet out the night. 1247 00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:42,520 Speaker 1: Wow, this tweet is a bit of a notice, put 1248 00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:46,960 Speaker 1: you on notice, informational tweet. Really. This is from Foeba 1249 00:57:47,560 --> 00:57:51,480 Speaker 1: Basketball from the FOBA Basketball World Cup Twitter account. I 1250 00:57:51,520 --> 00:57:55,280 Speaker 1: guess there's a tournament happening in August September. It's called 1251 00:57:55,440 --> 00:57:58,280 Speaker 1: the World Cup of Basketball. Hasn't been played in four years, 1252 00:57:58,800 --> 00:58:02,680 Speaker 1: so just put it on the calendar August twenty fifth 1253 00:58:02,720 --> 00:58:06,840 Speaker 1: to September tenth. Happens in Asia and Japan, Indonesia and 1254 00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:09,720 Speaker 1: the Philippines. And let me get you excited for the tournament. 1255 00:58:10,640 --> 00:58:14,800 Speaker 1: Luca will be playing, Yannie will be playing. I assume 1256 00:58:15,200 --> 00:58:17,560 Speaker 1: Victor Wibbin Yama will be playing for France. They'll they'll 1257 00:58:17,600 --> 00:58:21,480 Speaker 1: be there. I assume Shay Gilgess Alexander will be playing 1258 00:58:21,480 --> 00:58:27,680 Speaker 1: for Canada. Is that right, skeets, I think so yeah, 1259 00:58:27,720 --> 00:58:28,840 Speaker 1: So I imagine can it'll be there. 1260 00:58:28,840 --> 00:58:30,160 Speaker 2: They had a lot of the guys on the roster, 1261 00:58:30,240 --> 00:58:33,120 Speaker 2: something didn't play because of injury reasons and stuff. 1262 00:58:32,800 --> 00:58:35,840 Speaker 1: But they qualified. Lowry Markin will be there. A couple 1263 00:58:35,840 --> 00:58:39,960 Speaker 1: of Wagner's, lots of Spaniards, some bonus will be there. 1264 00:58:40,080 --> 00:58:41,919 Speaker 2: Be a damn good tournament if all these guys play. 1265 00:58:42,120 --> 00:58:46,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, I imagine, So you know, I went I went conservative. 1266 00:58:46,280 --> 00:58:49,160 Speaker 1: I assume that these guys are all playing. I assume 1267 00:58:49,200 --> 00:58:52,200 Speaker 1: the USA it will be playing. It's very difficult to 1268 00:58:52,240 --> 00:58:54,200 Speaker 1: tell if they qualify, but I think they did qualify 1269 00:58:54,280 --> 00:58:57,680 Speaker 1: and last summer I think Norris Cole led them to 1270 00:58:57,960 --> 00:59:00,760 Speaker 1: some victories or something. Anyway, it's it's it's tough to tell, 1271 00:59:00,960 --> 00:59:03,360 Speaker 1: but I think they will be there. Considering they were 1272 00:59:03,440 --> 00:59:05,520 Speaker 1: knocked out by France in the last World Cup of 1273 00:59:05,560 --> 00:59:09,520 Speaker 1: Basketball in twenty nineteen and the QFS the quarterfinals, Evan 1274 00:59:09,600 --> 00:59:12,760 Speaker 1: Fournier was doing Evan Fournier things, feb of basketball Fournier, 1275 00:59:13,320 --> 00:59:15,760 Speaker 1: So you know, they need a little bit of a. 1276 00:59:17,280 --> 00:59:17,800 Speaker 3: Come back. 1277 00:59:17,960 --> 00:59:20,720 Speaker 1: So I assume they'll be there. It feels like they 1278 00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:22,960 Speaker 1: will and it's gonna be a great tournament. And I 1279 00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:26,440 Speaker 1: say this because I watched last year the Euro Tournament 1280 00:59:26,480 --> 00:59:28,160 Speaker 1: a blast. Yeah, USA is not there. 1281 00:59:28,360 --> 00:59:29,200 Speaker 3: The USA is in this. 1282 00:59:29,600 --> 00:59:34,360 Speaker 1: It doesn't make sense why would they be there. But yeah, 1283 00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:36,560 Speaker 1: that's why I was hesitant to say that they're there, 1284 00:59:36,640 --> 00:59:38,480 Speaker 1: because I couldn't find them, but I think. 1285 00:59:38,320 --> 00:59:42,240 Speaker 2: They are according to the website there ye world, Yeah, website. 1286 00:59:41,840 --> 00:59:45,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, or the Wikipedia page did not include them as 1287 00:59:45,840 --> 00:59:46,560 Speaker 1: a qualifier. 1288 00:59:47,840 --> 00:59:49,920 Speaker 3: Canada is there though, baby. 1289 00:59:49,760 --> 00:59:52,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's thirty two teams. I'd assume the United States 1290 00:59:52,800 --> 00:59:56,160 Speaker 1: of America would qualify for the men's basketball tournament. 1291 00:59:56,200 --> 00:59:57,880 Speaker 4: Thirty two teams. 1292 00:59:57,440 --> 00:59:58,840 Speaker 2: Actually thirty three teams. 1293 00:59:58,920 --> 01:00:01,360 Speaker 1: I hate to well, actually you why? 1294 01:00:02,000 --> 01:00:05,200 Speaker 2: I guess Japan, as the host, are also in there. 1295 01:00:05,280 --> 01:00:07,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, so you need to get an extra team in there. 1296 01:00:07,680 --> 01:00:08,880 Speaker 3: I don't know what to tell you, man, I'm just 1297 01:00:08,880 --> 01:00:09,760 Speaker 3: reading their website. 1298 01:00:10,600 --> 01:00:15,080 Speaker 1: But that's only seventeen teams right there? The other the other. 1299 01:00:15,360 --> 01:00:16,439 Speaker 3: Right where are the other teams? 1300 01:00:16,440 --> 01:00:19,560 Speaker 1: They haven't qualified yet? Jesus, they still got to qualify. 1301 01:00:19,640 --> 01:00:20,840 Speaker 3: This show is a shit show. 1302 01:00:20,880 --> 01:00:23,240 Speaker 1: It is, well, you should you shouldn't. You shouldn't have 1303 01:00:23,240 --> 01:00:24,080 Speaker 1: said thirty three. 1304 01:00:24,440 --> 01:00:25,200 Speaker 3: That was thirty three. 1305 01:00:25,280 --> 01:00:29,200 Speaker 4: That's the qualifiers run through February twenty twenty three. Yeah, 1306 01:00:30,280 --> 01:00:32,600 Speaker 4: seven countries from the America's War. 1307 01:00:32,640 --> 01:00:34,800 Speaker 2: There should have been more information in this tweet, is what. 1308 01:00:34,720 --> 01:00:35,320 Speaker 3: We're getting at. 1309 01:00:35,400 --> 01:00:39,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, either way, I mean I named you all the 1310 01:00:39,520 --> 01:00:43,120 Speaker 1: qualified participants of stars that are going to be there, 1311 01:00:43,520 --> 01:00:45,680 Speaker 1: and I just thought the USA would have qualified, but 1312 01:00:45,720 --> 01:00:47,480 Speaker 1: I guess they haven't, and North School is gonna have 1313 01:00:47,520 --> 01:00:49,800 Speaker 1: to do some work in February, I guess if they're 1314 01:00:49,800 --> 01:00:52,320 Speaker 1: still part of it. But either way, they're going to 1315 01:00:52,360 --> 01:00:55,360 Speaker 1: be one of the last fifteen teams to qualify. 1316 01:00:55,800 --> 01:00:59,560 Speaker 2: So teams are in the hunt to secure those thirty 1317 01:00:59,600 --> 01:01:00,000 Speaker 2: two spots. 1318 01:01:00,000 --> 01:01:00,919 Speaker 3: It's you're absolutely correct. 1319 01:01:00,960 --> 01:01:06,280 Speaker 1: Get ready for a fun tournament happening late August early September. 1320 01:01:06,360 --> 01:01:11,160 Speaker 1: It's a nice timing for basketball fans. Last year I 1321 01:01:11,200 --> 01:01:14,800 Speaker 1: watched the euro Tournament a blast.
