Speaker 1: The Miami Heat get a great game from an unlikely source.
Speaker 1: The Blazers get a fourth quarter from someone who's done
Speaker 1: it many times. But it had been a minute. And
Speaker 1: Steph Curry keeping that MVP race convoluted or is he
Speaker 1: simplifying it? Huh? Makes you think. Hey, I'm tas Malus
Speaker 1: and this is what you need to know. In the
Speaker 1: NBA for Friday, February twelve, the number one seed in
Speaker 1: the East, the Philadelphia seventy six Yers visiting the Portland
Speaker 1: Trail Blazers, and it was MVP candidate Joel Embiid who
Speaker 1: got his team out to a great start. Now stop
Speaker 1: me if you've heard this before. Embiid had twenty three
Speaker 1: points in the first half, the most twenty point first
Speaker 1: halfs in the NBA this season with eight. It was
Speaker 1: a week to the day when he had a monstrous
Speaker 1: first half against the Blazers, twenty five points in a
Speaker 1: quarter against the Blazers last Thursday, and then they lost. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm giving away the ending. Carmelo Anthony was the story
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter. In fact, for me, the story
Speaker 1: was actually that the Blazers have created the first gray
Speaker 1: jersey that is universally loved. But are they gray? Maybe
Speaker 1: that's why they're universally loved, because they're not gray at all.
Speaker 1: Portland needed Mellow in the fourth quarter because Ben Simmons
Speaker 1: that six to eleven frame did a great job to
Speaker 1: take away Damian Lillard's six' to two flow from the.
Speaker 1: Start he had a rough shooting. Night Is Ben simmons six?
Speaker 1: Eleven he's listed at. That i've stood Beside Ben simmons
Speaker 1: before six? Eleven that sounds. Tall. Look Gary trent had
Speaker 1: a good night for The blazers with five, threes But
Speaker 1: mellow gave him the. Ball he took over seventeen points
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter, alone truly a throwback performance for
Speaker 1: a guy who will finish top ten all time in
Speaker 1: the NBA's scoring. Ranks bankers hands in his face didn't.
Speaker 1: Matter lots of threes to the. Head, ooh Classic mellow
Speaker 1: night nights like. THIS i think what our Friend Morgan mitchell,
Speaker 1: said IF i Say, Mello i'm always thinking About Carmelo,
Speaker 1: anthony Not LaMelo. Ball how long will that? Last? Though
Speaker 1: how long will that? Last LaMelo ball is? COMING i
Speaker 1: guess maybe it will for a. While zoe is Still
Speaker 1: alonzo morning and Not lonzo ball And jello is still
Speaker 1: the vessel for vodka shots and Not leangelo ball I. Amo,
Speaker 1: Anyway Miami, houston let me give you two, Words Max. Struce,
Speaker 1: no it's not a fancy dessert or. Chocolate he's a
Speaker 1: player who dropped twenty one for The Miami. Heat see
Speaker 1: now it feels like A Miami heat. Season a guy
Speaker 1: seemingly out of nowhere lifting his team to a. Victory
Speaker 1: and it was a unique line of. Work twenty one,
Speaker 1: points zero, rebound zero, assists zero, steals zero, blocks and zero.
Speaker 1: Turnovers what the last player to have a game like
Speaker 1: that Was Catino mobley in two thousand and. Seven all
Speaker 1: The rockets threw up fifty three point, attempts much to
Speaker 1: the chagrin of the inside THE nba. Crew they weren't enjoying.
Speaker 1: It but The rockets didn't have their best two point
Speaker 1: threat their starting Center Christian wood he's at with an ankle,
Speaker 1: injury And Victor oladipo he also left this game with
Speaker 1: a foot and ankle, Injury So John wall couldn't carry
Speaker 1: the team on his, own although he got lots of.
Speaker 1: Help Steven sallas has these guys working so much so
Speaker 1: that it was a three point game with only a minute,
Speaker 1: left and this is also why it was a Very
Speaker 1: Miami heat type. Game miami missed on their last two,
Speaker 1: possessions but they rebounded both they wanted from the free throw.
Speaker 1: Line that's A Miami heat. Game Jimmy butler grabbed one
Speaker 1: of those offensive. Rebounds he had twenty seven, points ten,
Speaker 1: rebounds and tennisis for the triple. Double it might feel
Speaker 1: Like i'm cheering on The Miami heat this, season and
Speaker 1: that's CUZ i. AM i just want their finals appearance
Speaker 1: from last season to be. REAL i want basketball to
Speaker 1: be real because if it, isn't, otherwise what do we?

Speaker 1: smile Rookie Cole, Anthony orlando Lost Frank mason the third
Speaker 1: in the first, quarter and shooting Guard Dwayne bacon had
Speaker 1: to play point A bacon. Strusl that sounds delicious right.

Speaker 1: seventeen times in his. Career the next highest player to
