I mean, Bron obviously, 212 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:37,560 Speaker 2: his free agency has been such a big deal a 213 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,680 Speaker 2: couple of different times.

Anyway, if Steph wins a chip, there 227 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 4: will be a lot of people saying that KD couldn't 228 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:30,959 Speaker 4: win without Steph because we always say that Katie was 229 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 4: the best player on that team. I think they'll be 230 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 4: there will be the Warriors fans saying that. 231 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 3: But that's about it.

But 251 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 2: that's a completely different conversation. 252 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,599 Speaker 4: So h if you've watched KD play basketball, you know 253 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:28,080 Speaker 4: what I mean. 254 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 1: I do think there is an interesting discussion here though, 255 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 1: about how Kd's rings have not made him bulletproof like 256 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 1: rings have made a lot of players, right like Jiannis 257 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 1: last year, He's bulletproof for ever off that ring. 258 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:41,320 Speaker 3: You know what I mean. 259 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 1: I don't think you know we've seen the ring move, 260 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 1: rings move the needle on players so many times like 261 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 1: the ring move the needle for step in twenty fifteen. 262 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, The needle move for Wade 263 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 1: in two thousand and six, and moved for right, and 264 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 1: move for Dirk in twenty eleven, and move for fucking 265 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,199 Speaker 1: you know, Kobe going back to back without shock in 266 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 1: two thousand nine, two thousand and ten. I don't think 267 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:04,959 Speaker 1: the needle really move for KD with those two rings, 268 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,560 Speaker 1: because it's like, bro, what did you overcome? 269 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 3: You know what I mean? 270 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 1: You went to the greatest regular season team of all time, 271 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 1: you linked up with Steph to become perhaps the greatest 272 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:16,959 Speaker 1: duo we've ever seen, and you guys ran off two 273 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 1: rings and you know we're not. We can never take 274 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:20,600 Speaker 1: the ranks from you. But like I said, I don't 275 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 1: know if that really moved the needed for KD. I 276 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 1: don't think KD showed us anything we didn't already know 277 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,839 Speaker 1: during those championship years. So I think that's interesting that 278 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 1: this I shouldn't have there. But you know, the shit 279 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 1: Stephen as on and he's wild with that. 280 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 4: Twenty seventeen, he was the best player in the fucking world, 281 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,200 Speaker 4: and it was obvious at that in that moment in 282 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 4: that finals he was I mean and Brian still atage 283 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 4: triple double, but kd was every time you had the ball, 284 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:46,840 Speaker 4: it was buckets, right, you know what I mean, Like 285 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,440 Speaker 4: I think other than what's been what went on in 286 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 4: that last playoffs, that might be the best we've seen 287 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 4: him and nobody, nobody, like you said, it didn't move anybody, 288 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 4: and it shouldn't. 289 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,120 Speaker 3: It shouldn't, you know what i mean. The rings that 290 00:13:58,160 --> 00:13:59,439 Speaker 3: the people you talked about. 291 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 4: You know, for for uh way to win that ring 292 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 4: at that young, takeover that team, you know what I'm saying. 293 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,319 Speaker 4: And I think he beat Dirk that was like what 294 00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:10,439 Speaker 4: they were first in the West that year, you know 295 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 4: what I mean, Like dog, that was incredible.

He there's no way that the rings that 309 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:42,880 Speaker 4: KD got should put him in that in that in 310 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 4: the same place and put those other people. 311 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 3: I think, you know what I mean. 312 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 4: As far as the player, he's a better player, but 313 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 4: those rings don't mean nowhere near as much, you know 314 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 4: what I mean. 315 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 2: If there's anore aspect of KD that will outlast his 316 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 2: playing career. In my mind, it's not had nothing to 317 00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 2: do with free agency. It's the fact that he's such 318 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 2: a fascinating person to me, that he has made his 319 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 2: decisions like someone who does not care about that the 320 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:09,440 Speaker 2: things you're talking about. But he is also then admitted 321 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:13,360 Speaker 2: by having these conversations publicly with Steve Smith, that he 322 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 2: does care about it. That it does bother him when 323 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:19,200 Speaker 2: people go on ESPN and and say stupid shit about him. 324 00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 2: Bothers him when some random guy on Twitter ghosts online 325 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 2: and says some stupid shit about him. So we've talked 326 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 2: about this a number of times. I totally I like that. 327 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 2: I think everyone is that way, and a lot of 328 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 2: people are, you know, I've gotten good at kind of 329 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 2: pretending they're not that way. But someone said about was 330 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 2: it d Someone said about jay Z? Jay Z can't 331 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 2: be on Twitter because he's the most sensitive human being 332 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 2: in the world. What does that man have to be 333 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 2: sensitive about? Right? But that's just the way the human 334 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 2: brain is wired. I thinks someone's saying something bad about 335 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 2: you online is a leopard in the fucking tall grass. 336 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 2: Like that's the way it was.

It's a crime how 395 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:38,960 Speaker 1: little the media talks about. 396 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 2: Especially at the volume. You know what I mean. We 397 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 2: don't have any people following. 398 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,679 Speaker 1: The Lakers closely, no vested interest in anyone on that 399 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:45,960 Speaker 1: roster on this spot. 400 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 4: So if we keep it at a stack, we've talked about 401 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:51,959 Speaker 4: the Lakers less this year than probably any year of 402 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 4: our fucking podcast. 403 00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah for sure. But I do I do 404 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 2: want to talk about the Lakers right now, which is 405 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 2: last night on ABC, the Braun proved that he's still Braun. 406 00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:09,199 Speaker 2: First came back from injury, casual triple double, crazy reverse 407 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 2: dunk that didn't even count. He just wanted to show 408 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:15,560 Speaker 2: off because the Knicks were in town. Looked incredible. Ad 409 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 2: coming back from injury we have not talked about. Has 410 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 2: been a monster everything we're hoping he would be. And 411 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:27,160 Speaker 2: then there's Russ And I don't know that I've ever 412 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:30,919 Speaker 2: physically reacted to a moment in a sporting event that 413 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 2: wasn't an injury. The way I reacted to hearing the 414 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:38,119 Speaker 2: Staples Center crowd beg that man not to shoot a 415 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:41,880 Speaker 2: three pointer last night, that shit hit me in my heart. Bro. 416 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:46,720 Speaker 2: I have a job that pays one forty one, four 417 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 2: hundred and forty four million as much as Russ's where 418 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 2: I have my job over other jobs because I love 419 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:57,160 Speaker 2: being in and giving back to my community. And I'm 420 00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:01,640 Speaker 2: trying to picture showing up to work and hearing twenty 421 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 2: thousand members of my community scream no. 422 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: And he was like, imagine you're on the sideline of 423 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 1: a Polly football game and you pull your camera And 424 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, right, Like that would be like 425 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 1: the equivalent of this. 426 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:16,400 Speaker 3: I'm out of there. Bro. 427 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 2: Land is real cheap in Indiana or wherever. You'll never 428 00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 2: hear from me again. 429 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:27,119 Speaker 1: That's so wow. And the thing is, of course you 430 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 1: can't tell Russ shit. Of course he let that motherfucker fly, 431 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 1: and I baked the crowd playing into It's like booing him, 432 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 1: you know, well, pleading with him definitely played a part 433 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:35,280 Speaker 1: of that. 434 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 3: But I think that's where we're at with Russ right now. 435 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 2: Man. 436 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 1: It's I think everyone's kind of giving up on him. 437 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,119 Speaker 1: I think even if you love Russ, you know what 438 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 1: I'm saying. 439 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 2: Do you and I were at the top of the 440 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:48,160 Speaker 2: list of people who are like, they're figure this out. 441 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:49,159 Speaker 2: Russ is the best. 442 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:51,679 Speaker 1: Yes, I think even if you love Russ, if you 443 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 1: know like we do, I think you're at the He 444 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,359 Speaker 1: needs a reduced throw until he figures it out. And 445 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 1: he might not ever figure shit out, and it might 446 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,080 Speaker 1: be done for us. And it's so weird because I 447 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 1: think we thought that the Russ decline was going to 448 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:05,239 Speaker 1: be him, you know, losing that fucking super athleticism he has, 449 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:06,120 Speaker 1: and that's not the case. 450 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,479 Speaker 3: The motherfucker just can't play basketball anymore. Bro. 451 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 2: I do think some of it, some of the lack 452 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:12,439 Speaker 2: of ability to finish at the rim, is it like 453 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:14,359 Speaker 2: starting to go. I mean, I think some of that, 454 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 2: some of that's happening. But you're You're absolutely right. I 455 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 2: think the thing is he needs the He needs what 456 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:25,199 Speaker 2: Ad just had. He needs the mid season off season 457 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:28,359 Speaker 2: to take him, you know. And I think some of 458 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 2: that is Broun John is shaking his head because he 459 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:33,440 Speaker 2: thinks it's an unfixable problem. But Ad looked terrible before 460 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 2: he went out too in stretches, and Bron gave him 461 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:39,399 Speaker 2: the take your time, get in the gym, get your 462 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:42,640 Speaker 2: body right again, and come back. You know what I mean, 463 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 2: Like it's hard to hit the reset button in the 464 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 2: middle of the season. I think Bron wanted Russ in 465 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 2: part so that he would have the ability to do 466 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:51,679 Speaker 2: that when he needed to. And Russ has obviously not 467 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 2: been the guy who could give that to him, which 468 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 2: is why the Lakers are probably going to be in 469 00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:59,159 Speaker 2: a playing game. But I think Russ needs that. I mean, 470 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 2: I think he needs that weeks away, man, Like go 471 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:03,919 Speaker 2: be with your family, get your body right, get your 472 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 2: mind right, come back, have a big first game back, 473 00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 2: and you know the Lakers fans will put that shit 474 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,440 Speaker 2: behind him quickly if he turns it around. 475 00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 4: Russ's game was completely predicated on him being bigger and 476 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:21,359 Speaker 4: stronger and more athletic than everybody his entire career. He 477 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:24,399 Speaker 4: could move anything to do what the fuck he wanted 478 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 4: to do. He never had to learn how to really 479 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:30,359 Speaker 4: play basketball. He could do whatever the fuck he wanted to. 480 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 4: Now he has to play basketball, and he doesn't know how. 481 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:37,440 Speaker 4: He's fucking fifty percent in layups this year, we ain't 482 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 4: talking him. He was sixty percent with dunks fifty percent 483 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 4: because he has no touch. 484 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 3: He's never had to fucking lay the ball up when. 485 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,880 Speaker 4: You're looking down into the fucking rim every time you're 486 00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 4: in the air, you know what I mean. 487 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 3: I mean all the. 488 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 4: Triple double shit that I get, all of that, But 489 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,680 Speaker 4: he could literally move motherfuckers out the way. You couldn't 490 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 4: stay in front of him, you know what I mean. 491 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:57,679 Speaker 4: When he got to the rim, he was stronger than you, 492 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:00,160 Speaker 4: you know, rocking a baby on these little point guards shit. 493 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:02,960 Speaker 3: You know back then.
