23
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 3: think that's hard to find, especially in this industry where

24
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 3: people are chasing clout and people are searching for clicks.

25
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,480
Speaker 3: You guys have this authenticity that is rare to find it.

26
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:13,520
Speaker 3: I've done a lot of podcasts, like I've been doing

27
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,320
Speaker 3: this for like seven or eight years now, and you

28
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:18,680
Speaker 3: definitely one. Oh it's not the favorite podcast I've ever done.

29
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:20,200
Speaker 3: Like and I'm not just saying that to say that.

30
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:27,400
Speaker 4: They asked about the curls, Josh, to keep the curls

31
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 4: and it you buzzed them all.

32
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 2: Check this out.

33
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:35,960
Speaker 1: Oh, I can't believe you have such good hair.

34
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:36,680
Speaker 2: I can't believe it.

35
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 1: What like in this third it's crazy, bro, you have

36
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 1: like you have Vinnie's like exact hair.

37
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:47,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm I'm worried to cut it because my hairline

38
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,720
Speaker 3: is receding just a little bit, So I'm scared to

39
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 3: cut it off and see what it looks like.

40
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 2: You old no type, Bro. You don't complain about that.

41
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 2: You're blessed. I'm trying to tell you. Mate, lead.

42
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 1: Noxidil Monday's brother, you know, so.

43
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 2: Might hoping on that you might see some hymns ads

44
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 2: on this.

45
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 1: Uh, well, Josh as everyone who's listening to this nose

46
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 1: Josh a big Knicks fan.

47
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:19,639
Speaker 3: Uh.

48
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 2: Jylen Brunston last night. Man.

49
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 1: I mean, I go, I go in and out on

50
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 1: Jalen Brunston, and he shut me all the fucking way

51
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 1: up last night. Couldn't have closed that game any better.

52
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 1: I think on the day he won the Clutch Player

53
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 1: of the Year award, he had uh, he had Kevin

54
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 1: Harlan trying to explain the fucking the metrics for what

55
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 1: clutch time minutes were, which was super funny.

56
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:45,080
Speaker 2: It was like up by five, down by five impression.

57
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: It was just like it was so funny listening to

58
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:50,680
Speaker 1: the Harlan voice to like try and explain it. But

59
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,360
Speaker 1: you you gotta be thrilled with how Brunston's playing and

60
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 1: how the Knicks have looked so far.

61
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, in game three, at least Game two was one

62
00:02:58,200 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 3: of the worst played basketball games I think I've ever

63
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 3: seen from the Knicks. Like, I don't think it's an exaggeration.

64
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 3: I think the way they played the second half was

65
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 3: absolutely abysmal, dreadful, like any horrible work you could think of.

66
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 3: And I'm very satisfied that in Game three they actually

67
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 3: started passing to each other and looking like a basketball team.

68
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 2: So coming off.

69
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 3: Game through three, I'm very satisfied with how the Knicks

70
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 3: looked because after Game two I was not that confident.

71
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:25,240
Speaker 4: Well yeah, I mean I thought game three, because like

72
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 4: the Pistons haven't had a playoff game.

73
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,640
Speaker 2: And so and so long. You feel me like there

74
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 2: was gonna be te to fuck up over there.

75
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,360
Speaker 4: That's a hard place to play my game. So I

76
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 4: was worried about that. But yeah, sewed up for so man.

77
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it didn't shock me though, I'm not gonna

78
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 3: lie was I was expecting it.

79
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 1: I was expecting it, I think, And you're right about

80
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 1: game two obviously. I think Game three was one of

81
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 1: those one to one game threes that felt like a

82
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 1: Game seven to me, because like their crowd couldn't have

83
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 1: been more turned up, and you know, like like we said,

84
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 1: there was like seven Knicks fans there, all sitting right

85
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 1: behind the bench, Timothy Shaalamey and Ben still sitting there

86
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 1: like they were Jalen Brunson's on these like. But for

87
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 1: them to win that game in that environment, that's got

88
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 1: to be deflating for the Pistons of like, we gave

89
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 1: him a pretty good shot here, and you know, their

90
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,239
Speaker 1: their guy could not have looked more comfortable and confident.

91
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:19,279
Speaker 2: Up and down the lineup.

92
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 1: There's other performances that you don't feel like. We're like,

93
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 1: you know, outlandishly good performances from the Knicks, and they

94
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,919
Speaker 1: still they still win the game. So your confidence has

95
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 1: got to go from very low after game two to

96
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: very high after Game three.

97
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:30,480
Speaker 2: I would have met.

98
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure. I think they went in Game four

99
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 3: as well. I just think there's too much. There's a

100
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,840
Speaker 3: big talent discrepancy here with the Nicks and Pistons of

101
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:40,719
Speaker 3: being honest with you, like Dennis Schroeder, Malik Beasley, Tim

102
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,360
Speaker 3: Hardaway Junior, these guys who were like fringe rotation players

103
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 3: last year and now all of a sudden, they're playing

104
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 3: huge roles in the play.

105
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:51,480
Speaker 2: Kissing me off man. I love Kate. I'm not a businessman.

106
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:53,120
Speaker 5: I love Kate Cunningham, and I don't like the next

107
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 5: I'm riding for the Pistons in this series. And Malik

108
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 5: Beasley was the best three point treater in the NBA

109
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:02,040
Speaker 5: this season and he can't hit a fucking brick house.

110
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 2: I love it.

111
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 4: That's what happened when that pressure Hitiat around his mother.

112
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:11,039
Speaker 2: One.

113
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, he hit that shimmy after a three in Game one,

114
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:15,160
Speaker 3: and then hasn't hit a three since.

115
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 2: It was driving me crazy. Don't there the basketball guys man.

116
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,360
Speaker 2: You play with him too much. You know what I'm saying.

117
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,280
Speaker 2: Too much difference. Ever since we found out, it's called

118
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 2: him a nigga. He lost his time. This nigga is

119
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 2: not tough. This nigga, this is not tough. Hey, that

120
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 2: sucks everything about him. It's over, Si
