Speaker 2: them for everyone here in the stream team. First one, Yeah,

41
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:26,079
Speaker 2: a little tip variety there in okase I guess who

42
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 2: were given credit to.

43
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 3: He's doing it all.

44
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, he really got in sand on that one,

45
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 2: jammed it in there. Good stuff. So that was number three.

46
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 2: And then a merr I think twenty minutes later if

47
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 2: that msg the National broadcast there on TNT we get

48
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 2: Joel Embiid just blocking r J. Barretts lamp attempt onto

49
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:52,720
Speaker 2: the right side of the rim. And that is number four.

50
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 2: So tasks, Wait do you see this number? Wait? Do

51
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 2: you see the pace for on when it comes to

52
00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:02,640
Speaker 2: weggies four early onion.

53
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 3: That is unbelievable.

54
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 2: I've never wild Yeah, yeah, so very excited. Number No,

55
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,839
Speaker 2: we're more and more overpaced than Shrewder's Jersey number. So yeah,

56
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 2: what a night, excellent stuff. See if we can keep

57
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,640
Speaker 2: the street going. Uh tonight, there's just three shows in

58
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,640
Speaker 2: a row now where we've been talking about Weggies to.

59
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:26,920
Speaker 3: Start it, so speaking to fast and furious, that's how

60
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 3: they're coming. As you said, we were talking about grabbing

61
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 3: it off the internet. We gotta grab it, we gotta

62
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 3: put it online. That first one yesterday and then all

63
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 3: of a sudden, whoa, another one just shows up out

64
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 3: of nowhere. National Broadcast Brian Anderson calling it a Weggie

65
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 3: made it made that first one a little bit sweeter

66
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 3: because the first one was kind of nondescript, you know,

67
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 3: is okay, see nobody really talking about it. But then

68
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 3: Brian Anderson on National TV SEV have you ever seen

69
00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 3: that number? No, seriously, I don't think so.

70
00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 1: No.

71
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:01,960
Speaker 2: So everybody that tweets in at us when these happened

72
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 2: to keep it coming at no dunk sinc. I inc

73
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:05,840
Speaker 2: a lot of you on Instagram as well. Did you

74
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 2: see that? Weggie? You know, just let us know, especially

75
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 2: if it's in a game where maybe not a lot

76
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,839
Speaker 2: of people are watching, like possibly that Warrior Thunder game.

77
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 2: You know, let us know the quarter, let us know

78
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 2: the time roughly so we can go grab it and

79
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 2: get it into the show and get it up on

80
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 2: Weggie tracker. Okay, but into the actual games here, bing

81
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 2: Bong Kemba scores nineteen as the Knicks romp to end

82
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 2: a fifteen game skid against the seventy six ers. That's

83
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 2: so it was a weird stat there, Trey. They hadn't

84
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:37,920
Speaker 2: beat Philadelphia team games. I mean, you know, Knicks were

85
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,560
Speaker 2: decent last year and Sixers have been a good team.

86
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 2: Don't get me wrong. But that's strange that they haven't

87
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 2: beaten them at fifteen games. But how about them Nicks?

88
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 2: What do you got, Trey?

89
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 4: There's only one place to start, skeets and you already

90
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 4: said it all Bing Bong, the Knicks are back? Are

91
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,720
Speaker 4: you kidding me? They snapped the fifteen game skid, which

92
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 4: was such a momentous occasion that the New York Daily

93
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:03,480
Speaker 4: News literally put bing Bong on their newspaper, bing Bog

94
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 4: the skid is dead? Are you kidding me? Bing Bong

95
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 4: has become a rallying cry for the New York Knicks.

96
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,840
Speaker 4: I think Bing Bong guy could be in the MVP

97
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 4: conversation right now. We're only a week in b but

98
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 4: it's early. It's either the bing Bong guy or last night.

99
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,719
Speaker 4: This is a segue for you. Kemba Walker. Oh what

100
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:26,040
Speaker 4: a game for Kemba Walker. A huge win for the

101
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 4: Knicks in the garden. It's the best Kemba Walker Knicks

102
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 4: game we've seen yet. His numbers aren't crazy nineteen points,

103
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,720
Speaker 4: which did lead New York six assists, but it was

104
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 4: really all about the second quarter for New York. They

105
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 4: came in trailing, Philly had the lead after the first quarter,

106
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 4: but the Knicks bench turned the tide. They turned a

107
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,839
Speaker 4: three point deficit into an eleven point lead, thanks mostly

108
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 4: to Derrick Rose and Emmanuel Quickly. Kemba comes back in

109
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:52,679
Speaker 4: five or six minutes into the quarter and he was money.

110
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 4: Ten points on four or four shooting. He hit a

111
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 4: couple of threes, and the next thing you know, the

112
00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 4: Knicks are up by twenty at halftime, and that was

113
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 4: basically the game. Sixers made a fake run in the

114
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 4: second half, Knicks held them off, took home a massive

115
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:10,240
Speaker 4: bing bong. Nineteen points for Kemba Walker, eighteen for Evan

116
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 4: fourty a, thirteen for Derek Rose, eight for Emanuel Quickly.

117
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 4: That's fifty seven points on nineteen to thirty seven shooting

118
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,719
Speaker 4: from Knicks guards. You can't help but think maybe the

119
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 4: Sixers would like to have a perimeter defender out there, like,

120
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:29,040
Speaker 4: I don't know, a six foot ten all defense type

121
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,239
Speaker 4: to maybe help shut down some of these drives, because

122
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,360
Speaker 4: it seemed like Kemba Walker could get anywhere he wanted

123
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 4: to against Seth Curry or Tyrese Maxi. The same for

124
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:42,839
Speaker 4: Derek Rose and Emmanuel Quickly quite honestly, but the best

125
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 4: thing about this Knicks win is that they get to

126
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:48,440
Speaker 4: go to Chicago on Thursday on a win three and one.

127
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 4: The Knicks are taking on the four to zero Bulls.

128
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 4: Honestly a tragedy that this game is on NBA TV.

129
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,040
Speaker 4: It got flex to NBA TV. There's not even a

130
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:58,479
Speaker 4: TNT game that night.

131
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 3: Huh, come on.

132
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 4: Let's get bowls out of here.

133
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, why that.

134
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 4: Isn't there's a Thursday night football game? It's my only guess.

135
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 4: I don't think there's not even a baseball game, right, No, no.

136
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 2: No, yeah, the World Series Game one and two was

137
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 2: obviously last night and then tonight here on Wednesday.

138
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 4: That's weird. Yeah, but this should be a TMT game,

139
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 4: no doubt here. But uh, fun times for the next

140
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 4: last night. Beating the Sixers, that's a quality win, even

141
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 4: if we're not seeing the best Sixers we'll probably see

142
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:28,880
Speaker 4: this season. And you know, they had the night one

143
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 4: bing bong win, humongous. Then they lost at home to

144
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 4: the Magic, which was a little bit of a bummer.

145
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 4: But I don't know, getting a win over the Sixers,

146
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 4: who I don't understand. I'm with you, Skates. How did

147
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 4: they win fifteen in a row over the Knicks. I

148
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 4: want the Sixers like intentionally bad for a bunch of

149
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 4: years here, crazy stuff, But a win for the Knicks

150
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 4: is big, and hey, these are a couple of teams

151
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 4: who could be jostling for playoff position somewhere down the line,

152
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 4: so maybe it factors in a tiebreaker wise later on

153
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 4: in the season two.

154
00:07:55,640 --> 00:08:00,360
Speaker 5: Ironically, Ben Simmons is never lost to the Knicks out

155
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 5: there was a big difference, But this was a good

156
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 5: bounce back, I think from the Knicks because of that

157
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 5: stinker they played against the Orlando Magic there at home.

158
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 5: They had that lead and couldn't finish him off. Coming

159
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 5: up against a much better team in Philadelphia, and they

160
00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 5: answered in that second quarter, as Trey alluded to there,

161
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 5: and it kind of was a bit of a dud

162
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 5: in that second half because the Sixers didn't really get

163
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 5: all that close. But for the Knicks, I mean again,

164
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 5: seeing Kempbell Walker play like this, and if he can

165
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 5: stay on the floor and stay in games and play

166
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,080
Speaker 5: back to backs and play at least, you know, seventy

167
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 5: games this season, it just makes such a difference because

168
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 5: they haven't got or they haven't had a guy who

169
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 5: can go out there and create like that and hit

170
00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:39,520
Speaker 5: shots the way that he can before. I mean, you

171
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 5: know again, Derek Rose last season was pretty much their

172
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,360
Speaker 5: second best player when he came over from the Pistons,

173
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 5: and that's just not good enough. When he can come

174
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 5: off the bench and become a factor like a scorer

175
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 5: like he has been, that's just so much better for them.

176
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 5: So lots of good signs there for the Knicks. Crowd

177
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:57,840
Speaker 5: was going crazy there again. Julius Randall had a reasonably

178
00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:00,320
Speaker 5: quiet game. He had a still you know, statistically wasn't

179
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,880
Speaker 5: too bad. But they're just not relying on him as

180
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:04,599
Speaker 5: much as they had to, like we saw in the

181
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,360
Speaker 5: playoffs last season. There's so many other guys contributing, and

182
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,319
Speaker 5: there's a little bit to believe that the Knicks could

183
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 5: be legit here.

184
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's a big part of it. Lee,

185
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,839
Speaker 2: what you said Julius Randol and r J Barrett, Oh

186
00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 2: my god, are you kidding me? Fuck is going on?

187
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 2: Why do you guys share the same leaf blower guy

188
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,560
Speaker 2: and he just goes back and forth to your two houses.

189
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:31,440
Speaker 2: I'm not not even kidding at this point. It's insane.

190
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm sure he listened to the show and He's like, Okay,

191
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 5: ten o'clock easton.

192
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 4: Just a bad time.

193
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:43,199
Speaker 2: That leazing at this point. No, but Randall and Barrett

194
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 2: tasks have not been amazing to start the season. They've

195
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 2: been fine, and yet the Knicks are still winning a

196
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:51,719
Speaker 2: lot of these games because I think a big part

197
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 2: of it that depth that Trey talked about. This second unit.

198
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,560
Speaker 2: They got a lot of guys. That's a good sign.

199
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 2: That makes me believe this is more sustainable. I guess

200
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 2: what I'm getting here. It's not Randall going for thirty

201
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 2: five and fifteen or RJ. Barrett like killing it right

202
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 2: now and can't miss a shot. It's the opposite of that.

203
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,880
Speaker 2: They're getting there. Especially Randall as a playmaker is amazing.

204
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 2: But everybody else contributing this is a really really good

205
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:17,320
Speaker 2: Nick team. And I'm excited for NBA TV Thursday night.

206
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 2: But Bulls and Nicks here. But what did you think

207
00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 2: of this game?

208
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 3: Well? I just checked the TNT schedule for Thursday. Hotel

209
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 3: Transylvania two is on, which is following an episode of Bones, obviously,

210
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:35,439
Speaker 3: which is following another episode of Bones. There's like it's

211
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 3: like a Bones marathon. But let me tell you something

212
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 3: about Bones. There hasn't been a new episode of Bones

213
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 3: in three years, but it's still running because it's that good.

214
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 3: That's phenomenal.

215
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,320
Speaker 2: Well, let me tell you another about Bones. I've seen

216
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:51,440
Speaker 2: the final two minutes of every episode of Boats. Yeah,

217
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:53,559
Speaker 2: you ask me how it ends, I can tell you,

218
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 2: but I don't know what helps for the rest of it.

219
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I guess no new episode of Bones, no

220
00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 3: new episode of the Knicks Bulls on TN. I'm definitely

221
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 3: looking forward to that game. Yeah, the Knicks are definitely deeper.

222
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:07,200
Speaker 3: It's nice that Randall doesn't have to do everything. He

223
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 3: doesn't look exactly like he did last year, but that's

224
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,080
Speaker 3: all right because they are deeper, and they're deeper than

225
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 3: a Sixers team. Trey mentioned they could use a guy

226
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:15,959
Speaker 3: at the point of attack to play a little defense

227
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 3: in Ben Simmons. They could also use a ball handler.

228
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,960
Speaker 3: It just seemed like Joel Embiid was not into this

229
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 3: game whatsoever. He was a little bit fussy. I think

230
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:28,960
Speaker 3: with Tyrese Maxi running the show there, Joel Embiid got

231
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,200
Speaker 3: one paint shot in this game. I was kind of

232
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 3: offset because he had eleven three throws. But that's not

233
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,520
Speaker 3: Joel Embid's game. He's struggling to start the year from

234
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 3: the mid range. Remember last year when he was the

235
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 3: MVP runner up, he hit everything in the mid range.

236
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:45,839
Speaker 3: Just give him the ball and give him a little

237
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,120
Speaker 3: bit isolation. Set him up, Ben, and watch him go.

238
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,320
Speaker 3: He was over fifty percent last year from mid range

239
00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 3: and dropped to like half this year, like twenty eight percent.

240
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 3: So I just think they desperately need a guy to

241
00:11:56,400 --> 00:12:01,160
Speaker 3: penetrate because Tobias Harris had a good game and and

242
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,720
Speaker 3: guys are chipping in around and Ben. They're two and

243
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 3: two and that's fine, But I just don't know when

244
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,559
Speaker 3: this game of chicken ends between Darryl Mory and Ben Simmons.

245
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 3: I mean, it's like they're taking turns being Matt Barnes.

246
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 3: In that Matt Barnes Kobe scenario. There where Matt Barnes

247
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 3: sitting just you know, trying to get Kobe to shake.

248
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 3: Kobe's not shaken. And then you know Ben Simmons will

249
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 3: take the ball trying to shake Darryl Moury. But that's

250
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:27,560
Speaker 3: not happening. When is it going to happen? When's Ben

251
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 3: Simmons going to take the floor because he's got to

252
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 3: play at some point at least get on the floor

253
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 3: to seem to look like he's tradable, to show what

254
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 3: he's got, and he could also help his team greatly

255
00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 3: on both ends. So this ended up being a blowout

256
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 3: because in the fourth quarter Tyers Maxim made some bad

257
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 3: decisions as the lead ball handler. It just doesn't seem

258
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 3: like he's ready for that yet, and he's twenty years old,

259
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 3: so that's expected. But yeah, the deeper team here, as

260
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,439
Speaker 3: he said, there's skeets, it's the New York Knicks, which

261
00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:58,760
Speaker 3: was not the case last year.

262
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, stream team drag and Joel Embiid's performance here because

263
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 2: it was rough and six only two to seven. Got

264
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:07,520
Speaker 2: to give some credit to Mitchell Robinson because the Knicks

265
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,559
Speaker 2: are a much better team when he's out there as well,

266
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 2: and yeah, being made it easy on him at times,

267
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 2: justly to start this game, Like you said, Tass, I

268
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 2: felt like the Sixers took like eight straight three pointers

269
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:19,400
Speaker 2: and I think they didn't even count. And Beads as

270
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:20,680
Speaker 2: a three bard. He may have been on the line,

271
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:22,680
Speaker 2: but you know, he fired one from the corner, another

272
00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 2: one from the top, and it's like, come on, big man,

273
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:27,439
Speaker 2: get to work go inside. But Mitchell Robinson is such

274
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:31,440
Speaker 2: a great defensive five and you just hope he stays

275
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,200
Speaker 2: healthy and then this Knicks defense is legit when he's

276
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 2: back there. It's really helped out. So good win from

277
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 2: the Big Bong Knicks to get us started really last

278
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:41,800
Speaker 2: night with that TNT double header. And we'll move the

279
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,880
Speaker 2: game too. Unless anybody has other notes about that. Go

280
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:48,440
Speaker 2: Bear led the Jazz over the Nuggets one twenty two.

281
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 2: Big story from this one Thyo'll leave the joker leaving

282
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 2: the game. I guess they're calling a knee contusion. Banged knee,

283
00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 2: so he didn't play in the second half. But with

284
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 2: your takeaway, I'm the Jazz sting undefeated.

285
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,720
Speaker 5: And the injury to Yorkic, well, I'll start with Yokich

286
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:06,960
Speaker 5: because we could see the collision happen there, and when

287
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 5: you can see it, oftentimes that's not too bad because

288
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,080
Speaker 5: you can you know, it's those injuries where no one's

289
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 5: around them and they just collapse in a heap that

290
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:18,120
Speaker 5: tend to be the worst. So it sounds like Michael

291
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 5: Malone said to him at halftime, how do you feel,

292
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 5: And Yokich was like he didn't feel all that good.

293
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 5: So they decided more precautionary than anything else. I think,

294
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,440
Speaker 5: so he maybe misses a game or so here, but

295
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 5: it doesn't sound like it's a catastrophic injury, which is

296
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 5: fantastic news for Jokich and of course the Nuggets. But

297
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 5: to the game, and yesterday on the show, we talked

298
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 5: about predictions that we maybe thought we got right or

299
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 5: could pull back, and I think, you know, I remember

300
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 5: saying that I feel the Utah Jazz are probably going

301
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:45,240
Speaker 5: to have the best record, certainly in the Western Conference,

302
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 5: because they're just such a good regular season team. Basically

303
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 5: there's been a few changes from last season, but it's

304
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 5: that same sort of lineup, very good, consistent starting five,

305
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 5: and then great contributions from everybody who comes off the bench.

306
00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 5: They defend well, They've got so many different guys who

307
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:02,240
Speaker 5: can either three or just score the ball, and it's

308
00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 5: just so hard to trade baskets with them. And that's

309
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 5: what the Nuggets were doing for a lot of this game.

310
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:09,800
Speaker 5: And inevitably what happens is if the Jazz lock in

311
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 5: defensively and get a few stops, then that can just

312
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 5: really sort of turn the game. And that's what happened

313
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 5: in the fourth quarter here, the Nuggets just sort of

314
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 5: slowed down. That Jazz defense ramped up, and that was

315
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 5: the ball game. The Jazz just put it out of reach.

316
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,440
Speaker 5: So they've got so many weapons, and when you look

317
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 5: at this team, you just think, how do they kick

318
00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:27,479
Speaker 5: falling over in the playoffs because they've got the continuity,

319
00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 5: They've got the star player in Donovan Mitchell, they've got

320
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 5: the defensive anchor there, and Rudy Gobert who almost beefed again.

321
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 5: I mean, he's been incredible for them, and he's getting

322
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 5: some buckets at the other and especially with jo Kitch

323
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 5: out there, and they've just got all the ingredients of

324
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 5: a team that really should be able to be more

325
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,440
Speaker 5: successful in the playoffs. So we can't really judge this

326
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 5: team until we get there because we've seen this before.

327
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 5: But that home court advantage is great. Quinn Snyder, I mean,

328
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,880
Speaker 5: he coaches his team well during the regular season, and

329
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 5: everyone knows their role, whether it's Dingles or Jordan Clarkson

330
00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 5: coming off the bench, those guys know I can shoot now,

331
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:00,760
Speaker 5: this is my time to play, this is my time

332
00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 5: to score. But they get so many contributions from everybody else,

333
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:05,480
Speaker 5: so they're three and zero on the season two and

334
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 5: oh at home. It's very very hard to see how

335
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 5: they don't win fifty eight games, at least the Utah

336
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:13,320
Speaker 5: Jazz because they're just such a good team and they've

337
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 5: got all the weapons and all the players who can

338
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 5: go out there and just make it a very very

339
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:19,920
Speaker 5: hard place to win. So good win for them for

340
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 5: the Nuggets. Another loss here coming after they lost at

341
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 5: home to the Cleveland Cavaliers the night before. I thought

342
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 5: Aaron Gooden was actually good offensively for them, But a

343
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 5: few questions there, and yeah, there's a little bit we

344
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 5: talked about hot seats all coming into the season. I

345
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:34,920
Speaker 5: think Michael Malone's fine for now, and I think they

346
00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:38,240
Speaker 5: will get back to winning basketball. But we know how

347
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:41,400
Speaker 5: quickly things can turn for a franchise that has expectations,

348
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:44,880
Speaker 5: and the Nuggets certainly have those after getting swept in

349
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:45,880
Speaker 5: the playoffs last season.

350
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, but what are the Nuggets expectations this year with

351
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 2: no Jamal Murray? What's considered a good season Top four?

352
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 5: I think anything outside of top four is a bit

353
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 5: of a letdown for them. I mean, you've got the MVP,

354
00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 5: you've got a good team, you've got Michael porter jun

355
00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:00,760
Speaker 5: You just gave him the big on track. I mean

356
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 5: they're not They're not looking at this season as like,

357
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 5: you know, anything less than home courted Randage at minimum

358
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 5: for that first round. So you know they have to

359
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:12,480
Speaker 5: They've survived so far, okay without Jamal Murray, but you

360
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:15,680
Speaker 5: know there's always if if they're let's say they lose

361
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:17,560
Speaker 5: five or six in a row, you know, Michael Malone's

362
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:20,960
Speaker 5: immediately going to become the first point of like you know,

363
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,280
Speaker 5: reference to be like, Okay, maybe we need a new coach.

364
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:25,800
Speaker 5: He's been there for a long time, so we'll see.

365
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,520
Speaker 5: But tough, you know, tough couple of nights for them.

366
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 5: I think they probably overlooked the Cavs and then again,

367
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:33,240
Speaker 5: one of the hardest places, if not the hardest place

368
00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:33,960
Speaker 5: to win in the NBA.

369
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:37,040
Speaker 2: Utah, Yeah, this one I got a little fasty task too.

370
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 2: But five minutes to go, I guess we had Jamaicael

371
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:43,160
Speaker 2: Green and Hassan Waitside pushing and bumping John at each other.

372
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:47,639
Speaker 2: No punch is thrown, but they were assessed technical fouls

373
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:50,119
Speaker 2: and ejected from the game. Probably a little much for

374
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:52,840
Speaker 2: what they got into, but at that point of the game,

375
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 2: and the rest are like, Yeah, we don't need these

376
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 2: guys out here, get out of here now. Anything to

377
00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:59,600
Speaker 2: add from the Jazz victory over the Nuggets last nek.

378
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:01,880
Speaker 3: Well was a good little trial run for the Utah

379
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,760
Speaker 3: Jazz with Nikola Jokic out, I thought in the second half,

380
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,600
Speaker 3: because teams want to run Rudy Gobert off the floor

381
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,439
Speaker 3: on both ends, they try and get him moving as

382
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,120
Speaker 3: much as possible, and then on the defensive end, they

383
00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:15,399
Speaker 3: try and go small against him so they can switch

384
00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:18,280
Speaker 3: and get in his way and Rudy, Rudy has to

385
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:20,399
Speaker 3: go through guys, and that's not really Rudy's game. So

386
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:22,159
Speaker 3: I thought this was a good little trial run, and

387
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,680
Speaker 3: they performed really really well. They did a good job

388
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:28,280
Speaker 3: of continuing to move it on the offensive end, and

389
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,639
Speaker 3: this was fantastic Jazz basketball. I think it kind of

390
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 3: looked like what the Clippers did to them in Round

391
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 3: two last year. They moved the ball, tried to get

392
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:39,280
Speaker 3: Rudy moving, and I think they did that on the

393
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 3: offensive end when Jokic was out, and the Nuggets just

394
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,040
Speaker 3: tried to switch everything. So they're one of three undefeated

395
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,320
Speaker 3: teams left, and yeah, if they can play various styles.

396
00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:52,639
Speaker 3: This obviously helps them going into the playoffs, when that

397
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,159
Speaker 3: will be the point where we all judge them. Of course,

398
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:59,120
Speaker 3: they get the Bucks on this weekend. I think it's Sunday,

399
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,159
Speaker 3: definitely the weekend, so that'll be a great matchup. But

400
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,680
Speaker 3: they have a little tough skeed coming up. But they're healthy,

401
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:08,560
Speaker 3: they're deeper than they are last year. Think about this bench,

402
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 3: you know, besides Donovid Mitchell, Mike Conley, boy On, Royce

403
00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,399
Speaker 3: O'Neil and Rudy that start. Yeah, they get Jordan Clarks

404
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 3: and Joe Ingles and then Hassan Whiteside and Eric Pascal

405
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:20,119
Speaker 3: and they like Jared Butler. They're they're deep, they're healthy,

406
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,040
Speaker 3: they're ready to win a billion games. And yeah, I

407
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:26,119
Speaker 3: think they have learned from last year's bounced job in

408
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,560
Speaker 3: the second round to move the ball a little bit more,

409
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:30,760
Speaker 3: not just rely on Donovan Mitchell. So that was I

410
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:32,440
Speaker 3: think that was a really good second half for them.

411
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:36,520
Speaker 2: What's super disappointing, Tray is that Jokic Bang's knees has

412
00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 2: to leave the game. Guy had twenty four points, six

413
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 2: and six and fifteen minutes against one of the best

414
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:44,240
Speaker 2: defenders in the league.

415
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 4: He always takes it to go ban I know, I know,

416
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:47,360
Speaker 4: it's amazing.

417
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:49,880
Speaker 2: Crushes maybe shot eight and nine again before he left,

418
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:52,639
Speaker 2: twenty four to six and six in fifteen minutes. We

419
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 2: may have been talking about, like a I don't know,

420
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 2: a fifty twenty here, a fifty fifty ton type of

421
00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 2: game from jokicch against Gobert. But of course he goes out,

422
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:00,520
Speaker 2: they lose.

423
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:02,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, he goes out and they lose. And you can

424
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 4: see just how shallow this Nuggets team is right now,

425
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 4: especially with Michael Porter Junior struggling. He's had eleven points

426
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:11,400
Speaker 4: per game on thirty five percent shooting so far through

427
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 4: the first couple of games of the season. Here last

428
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 4: night wasn't any better, thirteen points on eighteen shots. The

429
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:21,359
Speaker 4: Nuggets right now just cannot withstand losing Jokic for a

430
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 4: half and having Michael Porter Junior struggle because, like you're saying, Lee,

431
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,119
Speaker 4: Aaron Gordon had a nice game last night. Will Barton

432
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,199
Speaker 4: had a nice game last night. Nineteen points in the

433
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,199
Speaker 4: third quarter for Barton, But once the defense picked up

434
00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:34,200
Speaker 4: in the fourth quarter for the Jazz, it just became

435
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:37,320
Speaker 4: an isofest for the Nuggets and they don't have any

436
00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:40,320
Speaker 4: ISO players right now, so they're in a tough spot.

437
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 4: But hopefully the Jokic injury isn't much of an injury

438
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:44,800
Speaker 4: like y'all are saying. At least it was just a

439
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,439
Speaker 4: contact thing and you could actually see him like moving

440
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,560
Speaker 4: his leg last night, so I suppose that's encouraging. I

441
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 4: also want to give a shout out to Kevin Harlan

442
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 4: a great call during the skirmish between Hassan Whiteside and

443
00:20:56,359 --> 00:21:02,920
Speaker 4: Jamichael Green. They're Jocelyn, they're pushing, they're separating. I was like, yeah,

444
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:06,200
Speaker 4: this isn't actually much of a fight, but when he's

445
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,080
Speaker 4: calling it, it definitely felt like, you know, they had

446
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 4: a ton of people there. I think Hassan Whiteside did

447
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,080
Speaker 4: take like a shot to the face, but it was

448
00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:16,480
Speaker 4: from Jordan Clarkson, like he gave him the most of

449
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 4: us sock in the face.

450
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 3: But I don't know.

451
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,880
Speaker 4: These two teams have been very good for a few

452
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 4: seasons now. They also are in the Mountain time zone,

453
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 4: so maybe that plays into it. But it feels like

454
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:28,120
Speaker 4: there's a little bit of animosity just because they're both

455
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:29,680
Speaker 4: trying to break through to the next level.

456
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:31,639
Speaker 2: I think that's fair. You got to kick out of

457
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 2: that Harland call.

458
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:34,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, I forgot to mention that too when I was

459
00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:36,720
Speaker 5: talking about it, because he just makes everything great. I mean,

460
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 5: this is Jamichael Green and Hassan Whiteside. This is not

461
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,960
Speaker 5: like the top billing of about out there, but.

462
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:43,560
Speaker 2: He makes it great.

463
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:45,320
Speaker 5: He makes it interesting. And we've seen him of course

464
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:48,200
Speaker 5: with football when like is that the guy runs out

465
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:50,199
Speaker 5: onto the field and Kevin Harland does the play by

466
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:54,000
Speaker 5: play for that. So yeah, he is fantastic. See the

467
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,200
Speaker 5: best commentator right now? Maybe, I mean he's up there,

468
00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 5: isn't he. Yeah?

469
00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:00,600
Speaker 2: Ireland, Harlan and Green are both fantastic. Yeah, yeah, they're

470
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:02,960
Speaker 2: probably at the top of my leaderboard. This is two

471
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 2: games in a row. I just realized of the Nuggets

472
00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 2: getting into it with guys. We're building quite.

473
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:07,920
Speaker 6: The card here.

474
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,680
Speaker 2: We got Green versus Whiteside and I don't know if

475
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:12,919
Speaker 2: it's the main event on this card task, but we

476
00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:18,760
Speaker 2: had Composo versus Rubio going ahead to head. So Nuggets

477
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:21,399
Speaker 2: are pissed off, Come on, bring it. We'll fight everybody here.

478
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:24,040
Speaker 2: At least go forehead and forehead with you. The three

479
00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 2: other games last night we can touch on all of

480
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:27,520
Speaker 2: them or none of them if you want. We had

481
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,679
Speaker 2: eighty and Westbrook leading the lebron less Lakers by the Spurs.

482
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:34,920
Speaker 2: One very entertaining game, MAVs beat the Rockets one sixteen

483
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:38,800
Speaker 2: to one oh six in kids' home debut everybody getting

484
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 2: a chance to play for the Dallas Mavericks. Curry scored

485
00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:44,880
Speaker 2: twenty three as the Warriors top the Thunder to remain unbeaten.

486
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 2: They were trailing at the half, but got back in

487
00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:49,239
Speaker 2: the second. Of those three are tasks, Which one did

488
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 2: you want to touch on?

489
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:52,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's stay with the Golden State Warriors, one of

490
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:56,439
Speaker 3: the three remaining undefeated teams in the league. The okay,

491
00:22:56,520 --> 00:23:00,560
Speaker 3: see course they should beat okay see okay. He likely

492
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:02,480
Speaker 3: going to have the worst record in the league this year,

493
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:04,919
Speaker 3: But they were up on them in the third quarter

494
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:08,160
Speaker 3: going into the second half of that third quarter, and

495
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,400
Speaker 3: Damian Lee I thought was really key in the fourth quarter.

496
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:15,240
Speaker 3: Damian Lee. He is third in total bench points in

497
00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:18,159
Speaker 3: the NBA this year, behind Tyler Hero and Patty Mills.

498
00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 3: Steph is rubbing off on him. I think he's playing

499
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:25,080
Speaker 3: so well off of guys just watching where he can

500
00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 3: cut and find openings and relocate on threes. So when

501
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:33,200
Speaker 3: you know everything, all the focus on Steph or Draymond

502
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:36,520
Speaker 3: or anybody else. Damian Lee cutting so well, and he

503
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:39,400
Speaker 3: has been given the green light to close with Steph, Draymond,

504
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:42,800
Speaker 3: Iguodala and Andrew Wiggins. I think you have just being

505
00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:45,480
Speaker 3: beside Steph, also being his brother in law for several

506
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:49,360
Speaker 3: years here he's married to Steph's sisters has affected him.

507
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:53,399
Speaker 3: Maybe he's a guy who started in Atlanta for a

508
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:55,960
Speaker 3: year and then went to Golden State. And it's twenty

509
00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:57,959
Speaker 3: nine years old, so you know, I guess you'd call

510
00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:01,240
Speaker 3: him a journeyman type player but has found his way.

511
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:04,760
Speaker 3: It could be sort of Jordan Poole closing, you know,

512
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:07,680
Speaker 3: with that lineup I just mentioned. But Steve Kirk can't

513
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:09,640
Speaker 3: trust him, but he can trust Damion Lee. Damian Lee.

514
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 3: I'm surprised to see this stat from Anthony Slater that

515
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,600
Speaker 3: these third in total bench points. He had a great night,

516
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,840
Speaker 3: twenty point night to help beat Okay, see when Steph

517
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:21,160
Speaker 3: wasn't Steph like and they were just getting the ball

518
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 3: out of his hands. But Damian Lee doing a really,

519
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:26,760
Speaker 3: really good job. So the Warriors finding their way. They

520
00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:28,920
Speaker 3: don't know what their starting lineup is. Their starting lineup

521
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 3: is kind of getting beat and their bench players are

522
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 3: coming in. Obviously they're waiting for Clay but to be

523
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:37,120
Speaker 3: four and oh, I don't know if anyone really expected that.

524
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,120
Speaker 3: So yeah, we're waiting to see who's losing first between

525
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:42,679
Speaker 3: the Warriors, the Jazz and the Bulls.

526
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:46,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, here's what other teams think of the lowly thunder

527
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 2: kerse Edi couldn't rest Steph Curry as much as he

528
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:53,920
Speaker 2: wanted to because the Thunder were too competitive. Something he

529
00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 2: said anah in the NBA and he's right. And again

530
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:01,440
Speaker 2: Okac was leading tass. You said it, shake, Gelda. Alexander

531
00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 2: had an awesome game again, I mean smooth with it,

532
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,399
Speaker 2: thirty points. Dort made life difficult for Kay because he

533
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:10,840
Speaker 2: was a great defender. But yeah, nobody is afraid of

534
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,320
Speaker 2: this Thunder team at all, nor should they be. I

535
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:15,639
Speaker 2: was debating on Twitter and we were talking about it

536
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,080
Speaker 2: before we jumped on the stream here, like are they

537
00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:21,240
Speaker 2: gonna win ten games? Like I don't, I don't know.

538
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:23,600
Speaker 2: I think it's gonna be close. I think, you know,

539
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:25,600
Speaker 2: maybe they just get over that Mark Ley. But they're

540
00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:29,960
Speaker 2: they're bad despite having obviously an all star level talented

541
00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:32,360
Speaker 2: guy in Shay and then some other you know pieces.

542
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:34,920
Speaker 2: But man, just the rest of it is, it's tough

543
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:36,160
Speaker 2: to watch. I mean, they had a guy I didn't

544
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:37,760
Speaker 2: even know he was in the league starting for them

545
00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:42,000
Speaker 2: last night, Jeremiah Robinson Earl calling him j R. E

546
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,919
Speaker 2: on the broadcast, and Schumann pointed out kept thinking they

547
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,640
Speaker 2: were saying JR. Reid. I mean they might as well

548
00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 2: have JR. Reid on this team.

549
00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:51,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, And I thought exactly the same thing as shoot,

550
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:53,800
Speaker 5: because you hear it here j I Reid and I'm like,

551
00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:55,640
Speaker 5: who's that? And then you have to go and check

552
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:55,960
Speaker 5: it out?

553
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:56,560
Speaker 2: But JR.

554
00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,439
Speaker 5: I look, I don't think Sam Presty has said, you know,

555
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,480
Speaker 5: we a tank. But you know, just again, they've just

556
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:05,560
Speaker 5: started out the season where like, this team, how are

557
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 5: they going to put together wins? And how is that

558
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:09,199
Speaker 5: good for the sort of mentality in the in the

559
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,080
Speaker 5: locker room there if you're on a team where it's like,

560
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 5: guys don't want to win. Derek Favors sat out last

561
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:19,199
Speaker 5: night for Rest. I mean that's yeah. I just I

562
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,520
Speaker 5: just don't I just don't like that sort of approach.

563
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:23,600
Speaker 5: I mean, I understand if he's got all these draft

564
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:25,720
Speaker 5: picks and he wants to get high quality players. But

565
00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:29,080
Speaker 5: if you're a young player and Gilgia allixand just signed

566
00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 5: that big contract, do you want to be a part

567
00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:33,280
Speaker 5: of a team that's not really trying to win. I mean,

568
00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:36,480
Speaker 5: I just don't think it's very good so and I

569
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:38,119
Speaker 5: just don't think it's good for the league either. I

570
00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:40,080
Speaker 5: mean the same thing last year. Al Horford was like,

571
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:42,280
Speaker 5: just we don't watch you out here playing. You know,

572
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,840
Speaker 5: they gave away Kemba Walker for virtually nothing as well.

573
00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:48,400
Speaker 5: I mean, that's it's just a bad look, I think. So, Yeah,

574
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 5: I hope they win more than ten games, because otherwise

575
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:52,879
Speaker 5: I think it could be a little bit like the Sixers,

576
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:54,639
Speaker 5: where guys are just like, I don't want to play

577
00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:56,880
Speaker 5: for a team and a franchise it's not trying to win.

578
00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:58,960
Speaker 3: How long does she put up with it?

579
00:26:59,240 --> 00:26:59,440
Speaker 5: Yeah?

580
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:03,560
Speaker 3: I think one. I'd say this year. He'll put up

581
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:05,440
Speaker 3: with it this year since they gave him the max money.

582
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:08,359
Speaker 3: But next year if it continues, you know, at some

583
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,760
Speaker 3: point in the season, he's got to say. It's got

584
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 3: to say to Sam Press, what are we doing here?

585
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:15,520
Speaker 3: I'd like to win a game or two.

586
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 5: I just greeg here with the comment young players don't care.

587
00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:21,119
Speaker 5: They know of a thing called the future too. They

588
00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:24,879
Speaker 5: understand what's happening. I one hundred percent disagree. Young players

589
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:26,320
Speaker 5: don't come in and go that's fine. I'll be a

590
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:28,280
Speaker 5: part of a process. They want to go out there

591
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:31,200
Speaker 5: and win immediately. They're not interested in like it, we'll

592
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 5: be good in a couple of years. I mean, players

593
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:35,639
Speaker 5: come to the NBA and expect to win, and expect

594
00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:37,720
Speaker 5: to compete for championships and try their best. And if

595
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:39,480
Speaker 5: they're not on a franchise that's trying to do that,

596
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:41,920
Speaker 5: I think it's bad. I mean, you know, you look

597
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:44,679
Speaker 5: at guys like Oka four high draft pick but not

598
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:46,200
Speaker 5: even in the league. You've just got way from the

599
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:49,879
Speaker 5: Atlanta Hawks. Nerlan's know well, never lived up to his potential.

600
00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:52,120
Speaker 5: Michael Carter Williams also, is he still in the league.

601
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 5: He's bounced around quite a fair bit. Yeah. Is he

602
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,679
Speaker 5: in the Magic Yeah? And then you know so, I

603
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:02,159
Speaker 5: just I don't think it's helpful to say to guys,

604
00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:04,120
Speaker 5: your just sort of place feel isn't toil we get

605
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 5: the good players. That's really what they say.

606
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:09,760
Speaker 2: Trey Any of those other games you want to touch on.

607
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:11,879
Speaker 2: The Laker Spurs game was very entertaining. Maybe it was

608
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:13,800
Speaker 2: one of the more entertaining some of the night.

609
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:16,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, My favorite take from the Lakers Spurs game is

610
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:20,119
Speaker 4: that this should be part of Lebron James's MVP case

611
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:23,480
Speaker 4: because he sat out which allowed Russell Westbrook to find

612
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:29,320
Speaker 4: his way with the Los Angeles Lakers. Kind Of a

613
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:32,440
Speaker 4: crazy take, but sure, why not. Nonetheless, this is exactly

614
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:35,320
Speaker 4: why the Lakers did want Westbrook, and that's what Frank

615
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:38,280
Speaker 4: Vogel said afterwards, is that Lebron and Ad don't have

616
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:40,880
Speaker 4: to do anything. So Lebron sitting out with an ankle injury,

617
00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,520
Speaker 4: Westbrook was able to go crazy last night. But to me,

618
00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 4: this looked like the Spider Man meme this game did.

619
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 4: Westbrook and Anthony Davis were no different than Dejonte Murray

620
00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 4: and Yaka Pearl. It was like anytime Westbrook and Davis

621
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:55,040
Speaker 4: wanted to get a basket out of the pick and roll,

622
00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,479
Speaker 4: they could. Anytime that Murray and Pearl wanted to get

623
00:28:57,520 --> 00:28:59,000
Speaker 4: a basket out of the pick and roll, they could.

624
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:01,560
Speaker 4: So for the Lakers to get a win, nice for

625
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:04,840
Speaker 4: Westbrook to have his best game in LA. But you

626
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:07,320
Speaker 4: gotta be concerned if you are the Lakers defense giving

627
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:10,520
Speaker 4: up this many points to the San Antonio Spurs. I

628
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:12,480
Speaker 4: don't know. They were just looking around at each other

629
00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:15,520
Speaker 4: so many times, Anthony Davis, just like, who are you

630
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:19,160
Speaker 4: trying to guard? There were so many breakdowns for the Lakers.

631
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 4: They look like a team that's going to be trying

632
00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:22,520
Speaker 4: to get into the play and just like the Spurs

633
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:26,200
Speaker 4: are so good to get a win. But I wasn't

634
00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:27,920
Speaker 4: super impressed by what I saw.

635
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:30,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, Test, I don't know about you, but as a

636
00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:33,480
Speaker 2: Raps fan, no, I know it resulted in a championship,

637
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:36,680
Speaker 2: But man, watching Perdle with what the Raps are rolling

638
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:38,520
Speaker 2: out at center over the last couple of years, Like, oh,

639
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:40,320
Speaker 2: god'd be nice to have a guy like that in

640
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,840
Speaker 2: the lineup because he was really dominant. Like Trey said

641
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 2: in this game, he was amazing twenty seven and fourteen

642
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 2: and then Murray with twenty one and fifteen assists was

643
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 2: awesome too. And again this was a back and forth game,

644
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 2: not a lot of defense was being played. But what

645
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:54,640
Speaker 2: were your takeaways from this one?

646
00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:57,840
Speaker 3: My takeaway was that it was a one year championship,

647
00:29:57,920 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 3: just just one championship for the Raptors. But if you

648
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,720
Speaker 3: Aka Pearl is on their side, they're still running it back,

649
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 3: repeat after repeat, every wow. Twenty seven and fourteen, the

650
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:10,480
Speaker 3: Spurs running out out every single white center you can

651
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:13,000
Speaker 3: think of. They got to Drew U Banks coming behind.

652
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:16,200
Speaker 3: They got a Jock Landale, man named Jock just waiting

653
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:21,520
Speaker 3: to play basketball. They go back Jeoffrey Laverne. They make

654
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:25,960
Speaker 3: centers into solid players, and Yaka Pearl was a talented guy.

655
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:28,440
Speaker 3: But to see de Jante Murray and Yaka Pearl running

656
00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:30,840
Speaker 3: the one five pick and roll at the end of

657
00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,400
Speaker 3: games and the yak getting the ball over and over again,

658
00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:37,240
Speaker 3: I too, was not super impressed with the Los Angeles

659
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:39,440
Speaker 3: Lakers and the way it is pretty clogged in the

660
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 3: lane right now. I don't think they know where they

661
00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:44,600
Speaker 3: want to go. I think Russell Westbrook's got to do

662
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:47,040
Speaker 3: a little bit of a better job at KYP knowing

663
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:51,200
Speaker 3: your personnel, because he's throwing it to rush on Rondo

664
00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:52,960
Speaker 3: in the corner to shoot at three, and it's just

665
00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 3: it's not working out. They miss KCP, not KYP. They

666
00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 3: need some shooters obviously out there, but it's not good

667
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:06,760
Speaker 3: right now. They don't have it all down, and Lebron James,

668
00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 3: I know, was resting. It looked good in that hat.

669
00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:12,360
Speaker 3: Not resting he was hurt. He looked good on his hat.

670
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:15,560
Speaker 3: I'm sure he watched Dune after the game. But they

671
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:19,320
Speaker 3: need him to run the show out there. They desperately

672
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:21,440
Speaker 3: need him to run the show. He is their point guard,

673
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:23,920
Speaker 3: and I think Russ has done a good job of

674
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,840
Speaker 3: seating that role to Lebron. He had to obviously coming over,

675
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:29,880
Speaker 3: but I think it's a It's very different for Russell

676
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,320
Speaker 3: Westbrook being playing with Lebron James, and I think that

677
00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:34,080
Speaker 3: part has worked out alright. To start.

678
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,760
Speaker 2: Westbrook won them the game though too. In overtime he

679
00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:40,240
Speaker 2: was like, I mean, this is the crazy thing about him.

680
00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:43,320
Speaker 2: Everybody's pretty exhausted after playing an entire game, and he's like,

681
00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:45,960
Speaker 2: cranks it up another notch. He's like throwing down dunks

682
00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:49,320
Speaker 2: and traffic in overtimely so like, yeah, he still took

683
00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:51,800
Speaker 2: a couple of weird shots three pointers early in shot

684
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:54,360
Speaker 2: clocks and stuff like that, but outside, you know, it

685
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 2: was really him and Ad just like getting them there

686
00:31:57,160 --> 00:32:00,120
Speaker 2: across the finish line and pulling out the victory. I

687
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:01,720
Speaker 2: like the Spurs man their fun watch. I think you

688
00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 2: talked about him last year. A lot tasks like a

689
00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:05,800
Speaker 2: sneaky fun watch, even though they maybe weren't winning a

690
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:06,400
Speaker 2: ton of games.

691
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:06,640
Speaker 3: Uh.

692
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:11,200
Speaker 2: Devin Vassell, excuse me, was awesome in this one. He's

693
00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 2: got a funky, weird game to him. He almost seems

694
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 2: like out of control all the time, but somehow bays

695
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:21,120
Speaker 2: off in a couple of his drives and stuff like that.

696
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:24,680
Speaker 2: So they're they're obviously with some of their guys, you know,

697
00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:27,600
Speaker 2: Caldon Johnson and Murray and and Derek White if you're

698
00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 2: still a fan of him, and Lonnie Walker had a

699
00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:30,840
Speaker 2: pretty good game. Yeah, there's just a lot of young

700
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 2: talent and pearl in the mix. They're they're they're fun

701
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:36,080
Speaker 2: at the very least. I don't think they're going to

702
00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:38,120
Speaker 2: be in the playoffs, but they are a fun team.

703
00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:38,640
Speaker 3: Yeah.

704
00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 5: Practice your free throws, kids too. Finally, at the line

705
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:46,520
Speaker 5: in the fourth in the fourth quarter, Yes, at Jaka

706
00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:49,400
Speaker 5: peerdle oh Man. That is a rough looking free throw

707
00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:52,880
Speaker 5: that he throws up there. And Chris Herring pointed out

708
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:54,960
Speaker 5: on Twitter because Anthony Davis went down in a sort

709
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,440
Speaker 5: of non collisiony sort of off off one of those

710
00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 5: misses from Perle, and it looked like Anthony Davis was

711
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:02,960
Speaker 5: out for the season. He was rolling on the ground.

712
00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:05,320
Speaker 5: He did come back up there. But I agree with

713
00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:07,560
Speaker 5: what Chris Herring says, every time Anthony Davis seems to

714
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:09,080
Speaker 5: go down, he's like, oh my god, he could be

715
00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:11,040
Speaker 5: done for the season here. But it does seem to

716
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:12,760
Speaker 5: get up and shake it off there, and it was

717
00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:15,560
Speaker 5: important for them. But yeah, the thing with Westbrook last night,

718
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,240
Speaker 5: I mean, without Lebron there, it allows Westbrook to be

719
00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:20,720
Speaker 5: what he's used to being playing throughout his career, where

720
00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:22,560
Speaker 5: he can just kind of be in control. He has

721
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:25,120
Speaker 5: the ball, and he will. He won the game for

722
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:26,920
Speaker 5: them last night, no doubt, but he will have those

723
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:28,960
Speaker 5: games where he does lose them as well, because he

724
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 5: just plays that same speed and that same way. But

725
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:33,880
Speaker 5: I think if you are Frank Vogel, you really have

726
00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 5: to consider just staggering those two when they're out on

727
00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,080
Speaker 5: the court, because Westbrook is at his best when he

728
00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,480
Speaker 5: doesn't feel that he has to defer to a better

729
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:43,840
Speaker 5: player or certainly a player in a similar position like

730
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 5: Lebron is Anthony Davis, and he and Westbrook can work

731
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:50,400
Speaker 5: together but I just don't think Westbrook and Lebron out

732
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:52,840
Speaker 5: there is their best offensive lineup, because at times when

733
00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 5: they've played together this season, it has looked really junkie

734
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:58,520
Speaker 5: out there. But Westbrook seemed a little bit freer last night.

735
00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:01,920
Speaker 2: And I promise no spoilers here, but Lebron was making

736
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:06,000
Speaker 2: headlines yesterday for critiquing the end of Squid Game. Lee.

737
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,520
Speaker 2: Have you watched squid Game or will you be watching

738
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:09,120
Speaker 2: Squid Game?

739
00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:11,479
Speaker 5: Come on, I think you ny me a little bitter

740
00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:13,120
Speaker 5: than that died of course not.

741
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:16,960
Speaker 2: You refuse to watch the most popular show ever in

Speaker 5: I've refused to watch it. I've just seen. I watched

00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:22,799
Speaker 5: basketball and that's it.

745
00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:26,600

Speaker 2: and Caruso. He wants to come up with a crazy

771
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:55,560
Speaker 2: award for him task. So I don't know if you

772
00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:57,560
Speaker 2: have a thought on that award from Ryan or something

773
00:35:57,600 --> 00:35:58,160
Speaker 2: else in mind.

774
00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:01,000
Speaker 3: It's quite solid. I think what would be better? And

775
00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:04,120
Speaker 3: I think what the players could get into and vote on,

776
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:07,240
Speaker 3: even is the All Irritant Team. I think the players

777
00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:10,640
Speaker 3: would love to check off who they hate, and I

778
00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:13,799
Speaker 3: think it would be good to mortalize some of the

779
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:16,600
Speaker 3: players that we kind of forget about that are just

780
00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 3: lost in the long history of the NBA, Like you know,

781
00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:26,359
Speaker 3: Zaza Paculia, he's an irritant, Matthew Delvdova, Kelly Olinick, even

782
00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:31,160
Speaker 3: Matt Barnes. You know, these guys not necessarily winning awards,

783
00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:35,200
Speaker 3: like an Alex Caruso. So I do like the suggestion

784
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:38,960
Speaker 3: for the Caruso, but I like this all Irritant suggestion.

785
00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:42,360
Speaker 3: Just I'd get the ballot out for each player in

786
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:45,440
Speaker 3: the league and they would just select five. I think.

787
00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:47,799
Speaker 3: I think a starting lineup of five. Now, there might

788
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:51,480
Speaker 3: be a lot of repeat guys, but from year to year,

789
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:54,919
Speaker 3: I mean, but I think there'd be enough turnover. And

790
00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:57,480
Speaker 3: I think we could do it right now. I put

791
00:36:57,520 --> 00:36:59,920
Speaker 3: it out on Twitter yesterday, So let's do it for

792
00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:03,320
Speaker 3: this season, right here, right now. Who makes you angry? Anybody?

793
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:07,680
Speaker 3: Anybody else? Yeah, somebody? Patrick Beverly is I think Patrick

794
00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:12,320
Speaker 3: Beverly's starting. You know, he's got he's got the Timberwolves, feisty.

795
00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:14,680
Speaker 3: He's doing a good job of it. But I think

796
00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:19,120
Speaker 3: there's a pretty universal backcourt mate for him, Marcus Smart.

797
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:22,879
Speaker 3: Marcus Smart, the flopping. The flopping really gets under people's yeah,

798
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:25,279
Speaker 3: oh yeah, but but if you go further in the line,

799
00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:27,400
Speaker 3: if any anybody else, you guys want to throw it

800
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:30,040
Speaker 3: at a a wing type player.

801
00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:33,160
Speaker 2: Lee, anybody come to mind. I think it's more difficult

802
00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:34,879
Speaker 2: the bigger, the bigger we get up here.

803
00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:38,520
Speaker 3: Sure, but there's one guy people would say he's got

804
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:42,640
Speaker 3: a quote punchable face, Dylan Brooks. Dylan Brooks. I think

805
00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:45,960
Speaker 3: he hasn't played this year, so hasn't played quite yet.

806
00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:47,359
Speaker 2: But yeah, that's a great one.

807
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:49,160
Speaker 3: He's on there. So I think that that would be

808
00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:51,440
Speaker 3: the one two three. I think you squeeze Dylan in

809
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:53,440
Speaker 3: there in the in the small forward spot. Yeah, when

810
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:55,680
Speaker 3: when you get bigger, it gets a little bit more interesting.

811
00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 3: You know, people say Draymond because of history, you know,

812
00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:00,840
Speaker 3: you know, talking.

813
00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:03,080
Speaker 2: Dwight Howard might have one. He picks up a tech

814
00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:03,600
Speaker 2: every game.

815
00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:06,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's hitting people. So I think I think that

816
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:08,680
Speaker 3: would probably be the starting five. Note a lot of

817
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:13,200
Speaker 3: suggestions for Grace and Allen, even Thanasi sa too is

818
00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:19,359
Speaker 3: out there to bang people. Faku compazzo. He gets under

819
00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:20,920
Speaker 3: people's skin. You got into a little bit of a

820
00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:23,520
Speaker 3: tussle with Ricky Ruby the other day, the day Rajon Rondo.

821
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:26,680
Speaker 3: So I think there's enough for a five every year,

822
00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:29,680
Speaker 3: and I see nothing wrong with that. I think a

823
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:31,879
Speaker 3: lot of these guys would be happy when they see

824
00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:37,000
Speaker 3: them see Marcus Smart looking at that. Yeah, that's my pack.

825
00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 2: All right, all irritant Team Lee. Do you have any

826
00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:41,960
Speaker 2: other crazy awards you'd like to see?

827
00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:44,560
Speaker 5: Well, uh, you know we talk a lot about m

828
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:47,520
Speaker 5: vps and six man of that. What about the garbage

829
00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:51,120
Speaker 5: time MVP? You know when the games are over and

830
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:52,879
Speaker 5: a dude comes out in the last five or six

831
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:56,680
Speaker 5: minutes like Jay Scrubb who came out for the Lais

832
00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:59,200
Speaker 5: the other night against the Blazers at siven points and

833
00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:01,520
Speaker 5: the last eight minute of the game. So you know,

834
00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:03,200
Speaker 5: guys are out there trying to make a name for

835
00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:06,879
Speaker 5: themselves and that's their opportunity to shine. I don't have

836
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:09,760
Speaker 5: the stats compiled because you know, when does officially garbage

837
00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:11,839
Speaker 5: time start? But you know, I think there's something there

838
00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:14,040
Speaker 5: where it. Guys be like this guy put up the

839
00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:17,400
Speaker 5: most points when the margin was perhaps the biggest throughout

840
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:19,680
Speaker 5: the season. I think they could be something there, right, Is.

841
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:22,280
Speaker 2: The award like a human victory cigar?

842
00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:25,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, that could be it. Yeah, It's just.

843
00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:31,719
Speaker 2: I was thinking of isn't that what Darko was called?

844
00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:31,840
Speaker 7: Or?

845
00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:33,080
Speaker 2: Am I crazy? Who was called that?

846
00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:34,279
Speaker 4: Something? Darko has been?

847
00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:40,600
Speaker 2: Scalabrini was, yeah, okay, okay, maybe t K you got anything.

848
00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:43,520
Speaker 4: I would just go baseball with this and give out

849
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:45,799
Speaker 4: an award for everything. They give out an award for

850
00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:49,720
Speaker 4: best hitter for every position in both leagues and best

851
00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:52,759
Speaker 4: fielder for every position in both leagues. They used to

852
00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:55,400
Speaker 4: give out an award to the best reliever, called the

853
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:59,920
Speaker 4: Roll Aids relief Man, the funniest name for an award,

854
00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:03,560
Speaker 4: probably an awards history only until they come up with

855
00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:06,680
Speaker 4: the j Scrub Awards for the thirteenth Man of the Year.

856
00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:09,160
Speaker 4: But that's what I would do. I think that season

857
00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:11,440
Speaker 4: leaders should be a bigger deal at the end of

858
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:13,960
Speaker 4: the season. Scoring title to me should be an honor

859
00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:16,040
Speaker 4: rather than something we just kind of mentioned when we're

860
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:22,080
Speaker 4: talking about players. If we're mailing a cigar to the

861
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:25,640
Speaker 4: human victory cigar to the j Scrub winner, what are

862
00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:27,520
Speaker 4: we going to give to the scoring title winner? I

863
00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:31,399
Speaker 4: don't know. A gold basketball. I guess that's the NBA

864
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:34,759
Speaker 4: Championship trophy. Every trophy in the NBA is either a

865
00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:37,359
Speaker 4: guy running with a basketball or just a basketball. That's

866
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:40,560
Speaker 4: pretty weird, So I don't know. Maybe, oh, a golden bucket,

867
00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:43,440
Speaker 4: a silver bucket could be good. But they should get

868
00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:45,600
Speaker 4: something to whoever leads the league in scoring, since it's

869
00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:47,720
Speaker 4: the most important thing you can do on a basketball court.

870
00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:51,560
Speaker 3: Okay, I don't mind. Like baseball, they have a silver slower.

871
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:53,480
Speaker 3: That's why I got the silver, they get a silver bat.

872
00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:57,759
Speaker 3: I guess the leader for each position in you know,

873
00:40:57,800 --> 00:41:00,719
Speaker 3: from point guard to center and each conference. Why not

874
00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:03,960
Speaker 3: if you're the leading point guard score, sure give it

875
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:07,160
Speaker 3: to him two in each couple, a couple of silver balls.

876
00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:09,120
Speaker 3: I'm so. I'm sure Adam silver.

877
00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:14,800
Speaker 4: Silver's balls.

878
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:18,280
Speaker 2: My holy King in the stream team wants to see

879
00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:23,560
Speaker 2: a worst haircut award, which I think early in this

880
00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:27,279
Speaker 2: season might be Kenrich Williams. He's got a and this

881
00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:28,840
Speaker 2: might be even from last I don't know when this

882
00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:31,680
Speaker 2: was taking this photo. I think it's even crazier looking now.

883
00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:34,759
Speaker 2: It's it's like, yeah, it is because last night it

884
00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:38,360
Speaker 2: was so boxy. It was incredibly boxy. But his guy's

885
00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:40,440
Speaker 2: got a lot of hair. But there are maybe some

886
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:42,319
Speaker 2: other candidates out there. I'm sure the stream team will

887
00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:43,080
Speaker 2: have some fun with this.

888
00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:44,560
Speaker 3: Who has.

889
00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:48,279
Speaker 2: In the league right now? If you if you've got

890
00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:50,560
Speaker 2: a good answer, have at it, drop it in the

891
00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:53,680
Speaker 2: YouTube comments below, or let us know here in the

892
00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:56,000
Speaker 2: stream team as we're going through it, people are like

893
00:41:56,040 --> 00:42:01,640
Speaker 2: in the silver Balls, protected by the Silver Cup. Great

894
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:06,840
Speaker 2: stuff there, Okay, our next question, Hey, No Dunks bros.

895
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:10,480
Speaker 2: I'm from Lester, England, Lia am I saying that right?

896
00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:12,520
Speaker 5: Very well done?

897
00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:16,439
Speaker 2: Skech yes spelled like, it's spelled crazy, it's spelt weird. Yeah, yeah,

898
00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:19,200
Speaker 2: it's l E I C E S t e R.

899
00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:22,560
Speaker 2: But Lester England and I respect the grind from you guys.

900
00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:24,400
Speaker 2: It can be hard to keep up with the NBA affairs,

901
00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:27,160
Speaker 2: but the No Dunks boys keep me tapped. In my question.

902
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:31,600
Speaker 2: I feel as though Lamello and Miles Bridges are CP

903
00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:36,200
Speaker 2: three and Blake Griffin reincarnated. This is lob City two

904
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:39,759
Speaker 2: point zero. Do you guys see any other fun comparisons

905
00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:42,120
Speaker 2: across the league? Turn up? You had me you never

906
00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:47,280
Speaker 2: had me love you guys awesome. That's from Lyle Lyle

907
00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:51,160
Speaker 2: from Lester so Trey. What do you got man?

908
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:56,120
Speaker 4: Well? I like Lyle's suggestion. However, for me, the idea

909
00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:58,719
Speaker 4: of Lob City was always more fun than the actual

910
00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:01,560
Speaker 4: Lob City because once Paul showed up to the Clippers,

911
00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:05,319
Speaker 4: more expectations and more of a Chris Paul team, right,

912
00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:07,840
Speaker 4: they played a little slower, a little bit more deliberate,

913
00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:11,080
Speaker 4: and they were better. So yeah, I do think that

914
00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:15,600
Speaker 4: Lamello and Miles Bridges are a Clippers duo, but it's

915
00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:17,640
Speaker 4: a different Clippers duo. And maybe it's because I got

916
00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:21,080
Speaker 4: cover story on the brain. I think they're lamar Odom

917
00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:26,000
Speaker 4: and Darius Miles because everybody loves to watch a team

918
00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:28,920
Speaker 4: that actually isn't that good right now, And that reminds

919
00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:31,920
Speaker 4: me of when lamar Odom and Darius Miles were on

920
00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:34,160
Speaker 4: the cover of Slam magazine way back in the day,

921
00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:36,920
Speaker 4: and we were all super excited about this team that

922
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:40,080
Speaker 4: nobody had any expectations for. We just wanted to see

923
00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:42,640
Speaker 4: sick highlights. And that's kind of exactly what the Hornets

924
00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:45,120
Speaker 4: are right now. If you want to extend the metaphor,

925
00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:50,360
Speaker 4: Terry Rozier becomes Jeff mckinnis, Kelly Ubray becomes Corey mcgetty, PJ.

926
00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:54,040
Speaker 4: Washington is Quentin Richardson, and Gordon Hayward is somehow both

927
00:43:54,080 --> 00:44:00,640
Speaker 4: Elton Brand and Eric pyot Couse. That is good. Yeah, yeah,

928
00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:03,240
Speaker 4: but that's the thing to me, It's like the Hornets

929
00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:05,440
Speaker 4: right now, we're in it for the highlights, and the

930
00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:09,040
Speaker 4: winds are gravy at this point. So that's very early

931
00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:10,520
Speaker 4: two thousands clippers in my book.

932
00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 2: Okay, what do you got, Lily Well?

933
00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:14,520
Speaker 5: I sort of went a little bit similar. I tweeted

934
00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:17,040
Speaker 5: this in fact last night because looking at the top

935
00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:19,480
Speaker 5: of the Eastern Conference, I was like, wow, is this

936
00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:21,920
Speaker 5: nineteen ninety three again, the Bulls and the Knicks and

937
00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:25,120
Speaker 5: the up and coming Hornets there with their best player

938
00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:27,960
Speaker 5: who wore number two of course, Larry Johnson LaMelo Ball

939
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:31,080
Speaker 5: wearing that number two, and Jack co got out in

940
00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:34,000
Speaker 5: Washington even said to me like, hey, west Unseld was

941
00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:37,600
Speaker 5: the coach of Washington in ninety two ninety three, and

942
00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:39,759
Speaker 5: west Unseld Junior is the coach now. And it goes

943
00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:43,719
Speaker 5: even further because in the World Series right now, we've

944
00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:45,839
Speaker 5: got the Atlanta Braids, and of course the Atlanta Braves

945
00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:48,520
Speaker 5: are up against the Toronto Blue Jays in ninety two.

946
00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:51,000
Speaker 5: I mean, I'm sort of blending ninety two ninety three,

947
00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:53,799
Speaker 5: you know together here. But just the fact that we've

948
00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:55,200
Speaker 5: got the Bulls in the next the top of the

949
00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:57,640
Speaker 5: conference and then we've got the Hornets on the rise

950
00:44:57,719 --> 00:45:00,879
Speaker 5: made me feel like it was almost thirty years ago

951
00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:03,200
Speaker 5: to the day. Can you believe that? Incredible stuff here?

952
00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:05,680
Speaker 5: And one zero Brice great win last night?

953
00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:08,240
Speaker 2: Oh, I can't believe we haven't talked about that. Yeah,

954
00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:11,239
Speaker 2: very the lead here on an NBA podcast in Game

955
00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:14,399
Speaker 2: one of the World Series, Wait to Go Braids. Yeah,

956
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:17,759
Speaker 2: six to two victory. Awesome stuff. Okay, tass, what about you?

957
00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:20,240
Speaker 2: For this question from Lyle from.

958
00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:25,239
Speaker 3: Lester, Lyle from Lester, My brain immediately went to the

959
00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:28,080
Speaker 3: Los Angeles Clippers of the early two thousands too, Darius

960
00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:31,080
Speaker 3: Miles and Quentin Richardson and lamar odom mcory mcgetty, and

961
00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:34,480
Speaker 3: I thought of the current San Antonio Spurs as a

962
00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:37,080
Speaker 3: comparison to them, because I think they're all a bunch

963
00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:41,040
Speaker 3: of cool guys, just like those early two thousands Clippers.

964
00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:44,200
Speaker 3: I just wanted to watch them, you know, be them,

965
00:45:44,640 --> 00:45:48,160
Speaker 3: just be just be cool. And I love watching de

966
00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:50,000
Speaker 3: Jonte Murray play. I think he's, you know, such a

967
00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:53,840
Speaker 3: unique body type and the cool dude off the court.

968
00:45:54,120 --> 00:45:56,160
Speaker 3: I like him. Lonnie Walker, same goes for him and me.

969
00:45:56,440 --> 00:45:59,600
Speaker 3: He's a high flyer as well, so he's you know,

970
00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:02,319
Speaker 3: he's got got some dare smiles and maar odin vibes.

971
00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:04,759
Speaker 3: Calden Johnson as well, just takes it to the rack.

972
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:07,120
Speaker 3: It's got a little Corey mcghetty in him. So I

973
00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:10,520
Speaker 3: feel like that's a decent, decent comparison. As Trey mentioned,

974
00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:15,279
Speaker 3: we didn't have expectations for the Los Angeles Clippers way

975
00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:17,279
Speaker 3: back in the early two thousands. Same goes for the

976
00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:21,640
Speaker 3: current San Antonio Spurs. I know people won't be able

977
00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:24,560
Speaker 3: to make that link in their brains because the Spurs

978
00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:28,600
Speaker 3: just he just can't associate coolness with the Spurs that

979
00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:31,719
Speaker 3: get it, get it. But if you watch them, there's

980
00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:35,000
Speaker 3: there's cool vibes out there with Jean Tay, Murray, Lonnie Walker,

981
00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:38,480
Speaker 3: Kelden Johnson. You mentioned Devin Vessel's got a unique game.

982
00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:42,280
Speaker 3: It doesn't extend to Yaka Pearl, doesn't the coolness doesn't

983
00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:46,440
Speaker 3: extend the love you, yak. I gotta have a Piotkowski

984
00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:49,799
Speaker 3: around got They've got plenty, they got Jack on the

985
00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:52,480
Speaker 3: bench and a bunch of other guys like that. But

986
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:56,960
Speaker 3: and a Doug McDermott. That's that's your piot Caustokowski. I

987
00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:59,640
Speaker 3: got a Doug McDermott had a dunk like in the

988
00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:02,840
Speaker 3: half last night. Doug McDermott is good for one to

989
00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:04,640
Speaker 3: two surprising dunks every season.

990
00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:08,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, he can get up there. Surprisingly our final

991
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:10,520
Speaker 2: one here on this little mini episode of Beach Step

992
00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:14,640
Speaker 2: in within our daily show, fellas God, it feels good

993
00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:17,360
Speaker 2: now that the season has started, and seeing that Wilson

994
00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:21,960
Speaker 2: wobble all over the court the Wilson ball giving us

995
00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:25,839
Speaker 2: those wedgies at least my question, what has click baited you?

996
00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:28,879
Speaker 2: Being in Adelaide, I was at work and I saw

997
00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:35,840
Speaker 2: the Aussie media headline titled Giddy shatters NBA record in debut. Boy,

998
00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:39,240
Speaker 2: oh boy, was I pumped? What had Josh he done? Well?

999
00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:43,920
Speaker 2: While impressive, all Giddy had done was registered the most

1000
00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:47,600
Speaker 2: rebounds by a rookie in a debut game for OKC.

1001
00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:51,160
Speaker 2: Yes it's a record, but that's a bit of a stretch.

1002
00:47:51,400 --> 00:47:53,480
Speaker 2: So boys, have you been baited?

1003
00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:55,040
Speaker 3: What you got? Love you?

1004
00:47:55,239 --> 00:48:05,160
Speaker 2: That is from Big Crag. Yeah, I got a click

1005
00:48:05,200 --> 00:48:07,279
Speaker 2: beat in here. I mean it happens to the best

1006
00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:09,839
Speaker 2: of us. I mean, my buddy Gresh will click on everything, like.

1007
00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:15,719
Speaker 5: Yeah. Mind. So taking you back to two thousand and

1008
00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:18,600
Speaker 5: two when I got my first ever mobile phone and

1009
00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:20,799
Speaker 5: I got a OL pay as you go. All right,

1010
00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:22,279
Speaker 5: this is in London. I got a pay as you

1011
00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:24,719
Speaker 5: go one from Virgin Mobile. So I thought, you know,

1012
00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:27,200
Speaker 5: I'm not going to go crazy. I'll just I'll just

1013
00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:30,040
Speaker 5: keep it, you know, try to restrain myself and about

1014
00:48:30,200 --> 00:48:31,759
Speaker 5: I don't know. A couple of days after I got it,

1015
00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:35,880
Speaker 5: I got a text message that said, congratulations, you've finished,

1016
00:48:36,160 --> 00:48:38,840
Speaker 5: you know, top four of these certain prizes. Dial this

1017
00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:42,319
Speaker 5: number to claim your prize. And I was like, well,

1018
00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:48,759
Speaker 5: maybe it's a promotion, you know. So anyway, I was

1019
00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:50,200
Speaker 5: in a pub at the time when I got it,

1020
00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:52,480
Speaker 5: and I knew the sort of lady or the girl

1021
00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:54,600
Speaker 5: who was working behind. Now, I said, can I just

1022
00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:56,239
Speaker 5: brow the house phone for a minute. I just want

1023
00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:57,960
Speaker 5: to dial this number. Apparently I one time, I just

1024
00:48:57,960 --> 00:48:59,080
Speaker 5: want to check it out and I want to pay

1025
00:48:59,080 --> 00:49:01,520
Speaker 5: as you go. I'm might run out of credit. She's like, yeah, yeah,

1026
00:49:01,600 --> 00:49:03,839
Speaker 5: go for it, go for it. So I'm dialing away

1027
00:49:03,880 --> 00:49:06,640
Speaker 5: and it's like, yes, congratulations, you're finished in the top

1028
00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:08,040
Speaker 5: four one of your prizes, you know. And then it

1029
00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:09,680
Speaker 5: goes on and says like you will win this, and

1030
00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:11,960
Speaker 5: I'm just there for like twenty five minutes, just going

1031
00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:14,359
Speaker 5: like when am I going to get this? When am

1032
00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:16,800
Speaker 5: I going to get to the point anyway? Eventually I'm like,

1033
00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:18,239
Speaker 5: all right, I think this is a scam, so I

1034
00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:23,640
Speaker 5: hung up. Few days later, I was keep hanging on,

1035
00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:27,080
Speaker 5: and then I saw the girl again, you know, a

1036
00:49:27,120 --> 00:49:29,239
Speaker 5: week or a couple of weeks later, she said, what

1037
00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:33,319
Speaker 5: number did you die the other day? I was like

1038
00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:36,280
Speaker 5: it was one of those you know, you claim your prize,

1039
00:49:36,280 --> 00:49:38,239
Speaker 5: and she was like, it was like one hundred and

1040
00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:41,799
Speaker 5: eighty quid that we had to pay for the I'm like, ah,

1041
00:49:42,040 --> 00:49:43,600
Speaker 5: I guess that's what it was. And it was a

1042
00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:45,480
Speaker 5: scam anyway. She didn't make me pay for it, but

1043
00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:48,840
Speaker 5: the landlord wanted to know who, or the publican wanted

1044
00:49:48,840 --> 00:49:51,080
Speaker 5: to know who was calling those numbers. So I got

1045
00:49:51,080 --> 00:49:53,920
Speaker 5: away with it. But yeah, they got me early on.

1046
00:49:54,080 --> 00:49:57,719
Speaker 5: But a good lesson to because it didn't ultimately cost me.

1047
00:49:58,040 --> 00:50:01,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, Dan didn't get you at off. That's the way

1048
00:50:01,239 --> 00:50:01,719
Speaker 4: to do it.

1049
00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:05,719
Speaker 5: Yeah, I passed on the scam to somebody else to

1050
00:50:05,719 --> 00:50:07,799
Speaker 5: pay for it. So I learned early on. But you know,

1051
00:50:08,080 --> 00:50:11,399
Speaker 5: at the time, it was kind of like, you know, believable,

1052
00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:14,400
Speaker 5: and then I was just like, right, got done, so anyway,

1053
00:50:14,719 --> 00:50:15,520
Speaker 5: all right, So.

1054
00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:21,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, fascinating take on clickbait and we avoided a cool

1055
00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:26,560
Speaker 2: story bro from Jay. I liked it. Trey, Mommy, what

1056
00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:27,840
Speaker 2: do you got for this question?

1057
00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:31,760
Speaker 4: Not a great answer, skeets. I think I've become pretty

1058
00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:34,919
Speaker 4: immune to clickbait. For me right now, it's I will

1059
00:50:34,920 --> 00:50:37,799
Speaker 4: get fooled on a phone call that doesn't have the

1060
00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:39,560
Speaker 4: spam risk. You know, it shows up with a four

1061
00:50:39,560 --> 00:50:41,680
Speaker 4: oh four area code. You want to answer it, so

1062
00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:43,640
Speaker 4: you answer it, and then as soon as you hear

1063
00:50:43,680 --> 00:50:46,439
Speaker 4: like six seconds of silence, you're like, well, not this one.

1064
00:50:46,600 --> 00:50:48,719
Speaker 4: Hang up. The other thing that always gets me is

1065
00:50:48,760 --> 00:50:50,799
Speaker 4: when friends in a group chat send a link to

1066
00:50:50,880 --> 00:50:53,480
Speaker 4: a story and it just ends up being a picture

1067
00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:55,640
Speaker 4: of a well endowed gentleman sitting on the end of

1068
00:50:55,640 --> 00:50:57,919
Speaker 4: a bed. Those are the two things that really stick

1069
00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:01,680
Speaker 4: out to me, and the other is because Big Krogodoga

1070
00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:05,520
Speaker 4: mentions here this random stat about Josh Getty. And since

1071
00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:07,719
Speaker 4: we were talking about baseball, I heard on the broadcast

1072
00:51:07,840 --> 00:51:10,520
Speaker 4: last night that Ozzy Alby's has the third most home

1073
00:51:10,600 --> 00:51:14,360
Speaker 4: runs by a switch hitter under the age of twenty

1074
00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:17,480
Speaker 4: five without one of the headline. I was like, cool, cool,

1075
00:51:17,640 --> 00:51:19,520
Speaker 4: great to know. I guess I'll mark that down. He's

1076
00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:22,400
Speaker 4: right behind Mickey Mannlin, Chipper Jones. I don't know if

1077
00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:24,840
Speaker 4: that's true, just guessing those guys are great switch hitters.

1078
00:51:25,600 --> 00:51:27,719
Speaker 2: I think I have that photo that you're always clicking on.

1079
00:51:28,440 --> 00:51:29,160
Speaker 3: I just kidding.

1080
00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:32,000
Speaker 4: He sent me a link real quick. But you have

1081
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:34,080
Speaker 4: been really funny. I was thinking, instead of putting.

1082
00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:35,520
Speaker 2: Up that photo you're talking about, I put up the

1083
00:51:35,520 --> 00:51:38,000
Speaker 2: photo that you have a mad city on the end

1084
00:51:38,000 --> 00:51:40,200
Speaker 2: of his bed. Never show.

1085
00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:44,200
Speaker 5: That, would never show it, but never deleted.

1086
00:51:44,520 --> 00:51:46,719
Speaker 4: Oh that's right, that's right.

1087
00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:51,160
Speaker 2: Okay, tass, you got anything for our final question here?

1088
00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:56,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, from mister Kraga. Definitely a twist on what clickbait means.

1089
00:51:56,960 --> 00:52:00,520
Speaker 3: I get clickbaited whenever I see Big Krag a dog

1090
00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:03,879
Speaker 3: sending an email. I got it included in the show.

1091
00:52:03,920 --> 00:52:06,279
Speaker 3: I had to send it in to the show. Doc

1092
00:52:06,520 --> 00:52:09,080
Speaker 3: got included. So if you want an email on the show,

1093
00:52:09,840 --> 00:52:12,480
Speaker 3: just sign off with big krag Dog.

1094
00:52:13,360 --> 00:52:14,120
Speaker 2: Don't do that.

1095
00:52:14,239 --> 00:52:17,680
Speaker 3: Don't tell them that I can read right through it.

1096
00:52:17,719 --> 00:52:21,320
Speaker 3: I even know big Kraga Dog is real given name.

1097
00:52:23,800 --> 00:52:24,320
Speaker 2: Amazing.

1098
00:52:25,360 --> 00:52:28,120
Speaker 3: Sometimes sometimes I fill out forms with big krogod Dog

1099
00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:29,520
Speaker 3: as real given name.

1100
00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:34,320
Speaker 2: Interesting. When you check into a hotel these big kruga doggas.

1101
00:52:34,800 --> 00:52:36,680
Speaker 2: They must be worried when you check into a hotel

1102
00:52:36,719 --> 00:52:41,160
Speaker 2: with that. Get the plungers doing some work up there.

1103
00:52:43,120 --> 00:52:45,480
Speaker 2: Speaking of the we we were speaking of the braves,

1104
00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:48,080
Speaker 2: win there quickly. Are you going to get your taco today?

1105
00:52:48,239 --> 00:52:52,680
Speaker 2: Trey Guarante, come.

1106
00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:54,600
Speaker 4: On, skates. I called that one. I called that one.

1107
00:52:54,719 --> 00:52:57,320
Speaker 4: I was before the game. I said, all these is

1108
00:52:57,360 --> 00:52:59,400
Speaker 4: stealing a bass, stealing taco. He got on in the

1109
00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:01,920
Speaker 4: first inn and stole off a lefty. I don't know

1110
00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:04,000
Speaker 4: how many steals he has under the age of twenty five,

1111
00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:05,520
Speaker 4: but it's got to be top ten at least.

1112
00:53:05,560 --> 00:53:08,920
Speaker 2: I okay, you you did slack that to me hours

1113
00:53:08,920 --> 00:53:11,240
Speaker 2: prior to the game. I thought you were just making

1114
00:53:11,280 --> 00:53:14,040
Speaker 2: a great baseball joke that I got. I can't believe

1115
00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:16,880
Speaker 2: they still do the steal a steel base steel a

1116
00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:20,080
Speaker 2: taco promotion. Hello, that's been going on.

1117
00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:22,880
Speaker 4: First, going on for a while. Yeah, I was I

1118
00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:24,960
Speaker 4: think I first saw it in the LCS. It was

1119
00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:28,080
Speaker 4: like like on the on the fence or something like that,

1120
00:53:28,120 --> 00:53:31,160
Speaker 4: and add on the fence. I was like, what we're

1121
00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:33,799
Speaker 4: doing this? But then Alvi's had a nice steal at

1122
00:53:33,840 --> 00:53:35,960
Speaker 4: the end of the LCS as well, so I thought

1123
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:39,520
Speaker 4: the odds were pretty nice. Made like fifteen hundred dollars

1124
00:53:39,520 --> 00:53:40,360
Speaker 4: betting on that last.

1125
00:53:40,239 --> 00:53:42,200
Speaker 2: Night seats Oh oh excellent.

1126
00:53:42,560 --> 00:53:46,000
Speaker 4: Only in free tacos though, oh pay on tacos.

1127
00:53:46,200 --> 00:53:48,360
Speaker 2: There's definitely some confused people in the stream team. I

1128
00:53:48,360 --> 00:53:49,959
Speaker 2: have no idea what the heck we're talking about, Probably

1129
00:53:49,960 --> 00:53:52,120
Speaker 2: about baseball fans. Maybe they don't live in America. Here

1130
00:53:52,560 --> 00:53:56,759
Speaker 2: in the World Series. If somebody steals a base you

1131
00:53:56,800 --> 00:53:59,759
Speaker 2: all get a free taco at Taco Bell the next day.

1132
00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:02,360
Speaker 2: I think it's as simple as that, right, I just

1133
00:54:02,880 --> 00:54:03,400
Speaker 2: what do I do?

1134
00:54:03,520 --> 00:54:07,719
Speaker 4: Just stroll in there and I gotta check print. Yeah, yeah,

1135
00:54:07,760 --> 00:54:10,040
Speaker 4: you gotta prove that you were watching a baseball game

1136
00:54:10,120 --> 00:54:12,680

00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:19,080
Speaker 5: primo that we did at the finals a couple of

1140
00:54:19,120 --> 00:54:21,120

00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:05,000
Speaker 2: hear from our sponsors GD, what do you got mo?

1160
00:55:05,040 --> 00:55:05,200

00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:13,080
Speaker 2: that you don't want to share.

1165
00:55:13,320 --> 00:55:19,960
Speaker 7: It's twenty twelve's Lay Miserraba. Oh, I don't know.

1166
00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:24,520
Speaker 6: I love that movie. I love it.

1167
00:55:24,080 --> 00:55:27,880
Speaker 7: It's it's extra embarrassing now because Tom Hooper directed it,

1168
00:55:27,920 --> 00:55:30,279
Speaker 7: who is fine, he's a good director, but he went

1169
00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:34,080
Speaker 7: on to make The Cat's Debacle, which oh that's him,

1170
00:55:34,280 --> 00:55:38,960
Speaker 7: that's him. Yeah, so but the lame miserrabl is what

1171
00:55:39,120 --> 00:55:43,799
Speaker 7: is they they recorded the songs on location, which is

1172
00:55:43,840 --> 00:55:46,600
Speaker 7: they don't rarely do in musicals, right, they'll usually sing

1173
00:55:47,280 --> 00:55:50,280
Speaker 7: in a studio and then they'll just lip sync to

1174
00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:54,800
Speaker 7: the to the soundtrack. But they actually recorded on set,

1175
00:55:54,840 --> 00:55:57,920
Speaker 7: which was which was awesome, and it's like the opening

1176
00:55:57,960 --> 00:56:00,480
Speaker 7: scene is amazing, Like there's any whatever.

1194
00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:55,440
Speaker 6: Uh.

1195
00:56:55,640 --> 00:56:58,080
Speaker 7: And last week he had one of our faves on

1196
00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:02,320
Speaker 7: the show, the Enigma in a mystery Canadian National Treasure,

1197
00:57:02,520 --> 00:57:06,160
Speaker 7: just a goddamn delight, Cam Stewart, and we got a

1198
00:57:06,160 --> 00:57:08,239
Speaker 7: little taste of it off in the cold open, off

1199
00:57:08,239 --> 00:57:11,279
Speaker 7: the top of the show. And uh, I actually don't

1200
00:57:11,360 --> 00:57:14,520
Speaker 7: really know how to set this up except to say

1201
00:57:14,520 --> 00:57:19,520
Speaker 7: that Pat Cam and our former Scoreborough rob Bozola, we're

1202
00:57:19,560 --> 00:57:24,720
Speaker 7: discussing dangerous foods popcorn and uh, and it turns into

1203
00:57:24,800 --> 00:57:29,840
Speaker 7: cereal and Cam starts talking about how dangerous cereal can be.

1204
00:57:30,280 --> 00:57:33,360
Speaker 7: And so here's the clip in full enjoy.

1205
00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:36,360
Speaker 1: People choke on a lot of different things. Popcorn has

1206
00:57:36,440 --> 00:57:39,360
Speaker 1: caused a death before, guarantee. I just called it dangerous.

1207
00:57:39,360 --> 00:57:41,000
Speaker 1: I didn't say it's gonna kill you. I'm just saying

1208
00:57:41,240 --> 00:57:43,400
Speaker 1: you're gonna be like try you. You had problems, you

1209
00:57:43,440 --> 00:57:44,640
Speaker 1: had to get it out of your mouth. It's not

1210
00:57:44,680 --> 00:57:47,160
Speaker 1: a fun situation. It's all sortant. But but what are

1211
00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:49,640
Speaker 1: the other dangers, like if you're gonna call it dangerous,

1212
00:57:50,120 --> 00:57:52,200
Speaker 1: and it's not gonna kill you. It's just dangerous because

1213
00:57:52,200 --> 00:57:53,480
Speaker 1: it sticks to the top of your throat.

1214
00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:54,920
Speaker 2: Okay, but what's the dangerous?

1215
00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:58,320
Speaker 1: Give you my gold, silver and bronze cereals, Bronze Captain crunch.

1216
00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:00,520
Speaker 1: You gotta soak it first, roll to it's gonna cut

1217
00:58:00,520 --> 00:58:02,360
Speaker 1: your gums. Okay, I'm not gonna say it's gonna kill you.

1218
00:58:02,400 --> 00:58:05,120
Speaker 1: But if you like red milk, that's your thing. Two

1219
00:58:05,440 --> 00:58:07,800
Speaker 1: treaded wheat, the ones that come in the pack there.

1220
00:58:08,200 --> 00:58:10,400
Speaker 1: The wheat is so dry, even if you soak it

1221
00:58:10,440 --> 00:58:12,960
Speaker 1: with milk, it's just like popcorn. It'll get stuck at

1222
00:58:13,000 --> 00:58:14,680
Speaker 1: the top at the bottom on your tongue and you

1223
00:58:14,720 --> 00:58:16,920
Speaker 1: have problems breathing. And number one is a bit of

1224
00:58:16,960 --> 00:58:20,000
Speaker 1: a shocker. But vector vector is a thicker flake, and

1225
00:58:20,040 --> 00:58:22,200
Speaker 1: I'm telling you I've ate it before. The milk does

1226
00:58:22,240 --> 00:58:25,120
Speaker 1: not crush it down like cornflakes and everything else. It's

1227
00:58:25,120 --> 00:58:27,560
Speaker 1: got little nuggets of something in there too. That stuff

1228
00:58:27,560 --> 00:58:30,320
Speaker 1: will just oh my god, Vectors weren't way worse than popcorn.

1229
00:58:30,440 --> 00:58:33,520
Speaker 1: I've had so much vector in my throat. Like, I

1230
00:58:33,560 --> 00:58:36,320
Speaker 1: love vector too. It's a good healthy cereal but it's

1231
00:58:36,360 --> 00:58:40,800
Speaker 1: a very dangerous one. Captain Crunch shredded wheat vector gold, silver, bronze.

1232
00:58:40,480 --> 00:58:40,960
Speaker 6: Jes.

1233
00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:46,800
Speaker 2: Okay, that that is a man that chokes on his food.

1234
00:58:46,880 --> 00:58:49,920
Speaker 2: It sounds like every meal. Its just like he's talking

1235
00:58:49,920 --> 00:58:52,480
Speaker 2: about it like it's the normal thing.

1236
00:58:53,000 --> 00:58:55,040
Speaker 4: He had an Olympics of choking.

1237
00:58:54,720 --> 00:58:56,600
Speaker 3: On cereal ready.

1238
00:59:00,160 --> 00:59:03,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, the scores ready on Wikipedia. I can't believe shredded

1239
00:59:03,720 --> 00:59:04,800
Speaker 4: wheat came in number two.

1240
00:59:05,120 --> 00:59:08,040
Speaker 2: Yeah. Vector. People in the stream team some are confused,

1241
00:59:08,080 --> 00:59:08,640
Speaker 2: what is vector?

1242
00:59:08,680 --> 00:59:10,040
Speaker 4: I guess that is a Canadian.

1243
00:59:10,120 --> 00:59:12,080
Speaker 3: It's a Canadian choking hazard.

1244
00:59:14,560 --> 00:59:16,640
Speaker 2: It's Canada's fine as choking hazard.

1245
00:59:16,800 --> 00:59:19,400
Speaker 3: It's a bit of a checks mix as a cereal,

1246
00:59:19,560 --> 00:59:23,840
Speaker 3: sort of like you know those shapes right, Yeah.

1247
00:59:23,480 --> 00:59:25,680
Speaker 2: Well do you agree with the list tasks? I mean,

1248
00:59:26,080 --> 00:59:30,080
Speaker 2: you're a man that has one hundred cereals in your pantry.

1249
00:59:30,200 --> 00:59:32,480
Speaker 3: That's a pretty good list. That's a pretty good list.

1250
00:59:32,800 --> 00:59:35,920
Speaker 3: Those require some soaking. I would, I would.

1251
00:59:37,160 --> 00:59:39,720
Speaker 7: I don't get that at all, Like I so does

1252
00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:43,680
Speaker 7: are we led to believe that cam will just put

1253
00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:46,160
Speaker 7: milk in a cereal and leave it for like a

1254
00:59:46,200 --> 00:59:50,280
Speaker 7: half hour, just like rushy pablem type material?

1255
00:59:50,440 --> 00:59:51,080
Speaker 2: Five minutes?

1256
00:59:51,320 --> 00:59:54,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, a minute a minute would even do the trick? JD.

1257
00:59:55,040 --> 00:59:58,880
Speaker 6: Is this something that people do like a minute for sure?

1258
00:59:59,040 --> 01:00:03,440
Speaker 2: If you I've uh, like, I pour the bowl of cereal.

1259
01:00:03,520 --> 01:00:05,880
Speaker 2: First off, I put the cereal in the bowl first.

1260
01:00:05,920 --> 01:00:08,880
Speaker 2: I'm not a psycho. Apparently some people put milk in

1261
01:00:08,880 --> 01:00:11,160
Speaker 2: their bowl first and then the cereal. That's insane. Yeah,

1262
01:00:11,240 --> 01:00:14,360
Speaker 2: put the cereal in the bowl, then reach into the fridge,

1263
01:00:14,480 --> 01:00:17,959
Speaker 2: pour a little milk, put and then leave that while

1264
01:00:17,960 --> 01:00:19,920
Speaker 2: I put the milk back in the fridge while I

1265
01:00:19,960 --> 01:00:23,120
Speaker 2: go grab a spoon, well, you know whatever. So it's like,

1266
01:00:23,160 --> 01:00:25,000
Speaker 2: sure like tass is right by the end of it.

1267
01:00:25,040 --> 01:00:27,400
Speaker 2: I'm sure it's sixty to ninety seconds. And even just

1268
01:00:27,560 --> 01:00:29,840
Speaker 2: that can help, uh can help, can help the cereal.

1269
01:00:29,920 --> 01:00:32,280
Speaker 7: But that's not a help, that's a hindrance. It's uh,

1270
01:00:32,520 --> 01:00:33,560
Speaker 7: what do you mean I want?

1271
01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:39,680
Speaker 6: He's creachy, man, I want that cereal. Crashtor Cutton, show

1272
01:00:39,760 --> 01:00:42,480
Speaker 6: your food. People, just chew it. That's what you're teething for.

1273
01:00:44,480 --> 01:00:46,120
Speaker 4: I will say, if you don't get it, If you

1274
01:00:46,160 --> 01:00:48,440
Speaker 4: don't get like, I've been eating a lot of frankenberry

1275
01:00:48,720 --> 01:00:52,760
Speaker 4: because it's October and you know, the hard ones, not

1276
01:00:52,840 --> 01:00:53,680
Speaker 4: the marshmallows.

1277
01:00:53,720 --> 01:00:54,200
Speaker 3: If you don't.

1278
01:00:54,680 --> 01:00:57,840
Speaker 4: You don't really slop them up. I feel like such

1279
01:00:57,880 --> 01:01:03,800
Speaker 4: a softy right now. It can hurt the top your mouth. Yeah,

1280
01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:05,600
Speaker 4: but I don't like it. I'm like JD. I want

1281
01:01:05,600 --> 01:01:07,640
Speaker 4: it to be crunchy. I'm ready to risk it. Maybe

1282
01:01:07,640 --> 01:01:09,600
Speaker 4: that's why Frankin Berry is such a good cereal. You're

1283
01:01:09,600 --> 01:01:12,040
Speaker 4: getting that red milk regardless. But man, I would hate

1284
01:01:12,040 --> 01:01:13,680
Speaker 4: to add vector stuck in my throat.

1285
01:01:14,920 --> 01:01:15,240
Speaker 2: Like that.

1286
01:01:17,440 --> 01:01:20,440
Speaker 3: I would add one. I think Apple Jackson's is pretty.

1287
01:01:20,600 --> 01:01:23,439
Speaker 3: It's a pretty rocky cereal. It's a rock solid as well.

1288
01:01:25,120 --> 01:01:28,600
Speaker 3: I would add another one I actually have. I've been eating.

1289
01:01:28,720 --> 01:01:31,760
Speaker 3: You know, we have a sponsor on the show Magic Spoon,

1290
01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:36,000
Speaker 3: which doesn't have any grains in the cereals. So I

1291
01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:39,080
Speaker 3: found going down the cereal aisle lately, there's a lot

1292
01:01:39,120 --> 01:01:43,560
Speaker 3: of non grain cereals. There's one cereal that's made out

1293
01:01:43,600 --> 01:01:48,120
Speaker 3: of egg whites and somehow like it's it's comprised of

1294
01:01:48,160 --> 01:01:50,440
Speaker 3: egg whites and they stick some you know stuffed and

1295
01:01:50,600 --> 01:01:53,360
Speaker 3: you know, monk fruit extract or whatever. Those things are

1296
01:01:53,520 --> 01:01:58,800
Speaker 3: literal rocks in a bowl. I tried to gral in

1297
01:01:58,880 --> 01:02:01,960
Speaker 3: his bowl. Milk doesn't do a thing to them. It

1298
01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:04,440
Speaker 3: doesn't do a thing. I bought a bought a box

1299
01:02:05,040 --> 01:02:07,120
Speaker 3: and I threw it out after one bowl. I'm not

1300
01:02:07,160 --> 01:02:10,280
Speaker 3: a thrower out or ever, but I know there's no

1301
01:02:10,320 --> 01:02:13,200
Speaker 3: way I was going back for a second dip of rocks.

1302
01:02:13,200 --> 01:02:17,600
Speaker 3: It's it was. It was unbelievable. I would I'm pretty

1303
01:02:17,600 --> 01:02:19,919
Speaker 3: sure it would choke camp Stewart. It would kill camp

1304
01:02:19,920 --> 01:02:25,000
Speaker 3: Stewart to eat those things. Yeah, it was. It was phenomenal. Man. Anyway,

1305
01:02:25,840 --> 01:02:26,320
Speaker 3: what a clip.

1306
01:02:26,440 --> 01:02:28,840
Speaker 2: I'm glad it got bumped a couple of days, but

1307
01:02:28,880 --> 01:02:31,400
Speaker 2: I'm glad we got it in here, especially time. At least.

1308
01:02:34,240 --> 01:02:35,560
Speaker 3: You said the Weekend tweeted that.

1309
01:02:36,920 --> 01:02:38,400
Speaker 6: No, I said, it's from the weekend.

1310
01:02:38,520 --> 01:02:41,760
Speaker 3: Oh oh yeah.

1311
01:02:41,840 --> 01:02:44,040
Speaker 2: Do you think the Weekend? I mean, do you think

1312
01:02:44,120 --> 01:02:45,080
Speaker 2: the weekend knows who?

1313
01:02:46,720 --> 01:02:47,880
Speaker 5: Probably what?

1314
01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:51,000
Speaker 6: Okay, does the weekend know who Pat Mayo is?

1315
01:02:52,560 --> 01:02:53,120
Speaker 5: Can stew it?

1316
01:02:53,240 --> 01:02:53,479
Speaker 3: Maybe?

1317
01:02:53,480 --> 01:02:54,480
Speaker 5: You know my eye?

1318
01:02:55,240 --> 01:02:56,960
Speaker 2: Do you think, okay, let's keep it going. Do you

1319
01:02:57,000 --> 01:03:00,840
Speaker 2: think camp Stewart dips his wings into Mayo?

1320
01:03:00,600 --> 01:03:07,800
Speaker 4: Wo that's a good yes, Na Fries Fries he does this, Frien.

1321
01:03:07,880 --> 01:03:12,720
Speaker 3: Yes, branches like branches, all right?

1322
01:03:12,760 --> 01:03:15,320
Speaker 2: Pick him? Results from last night it was the Nuggets

1323
01:03:15,400 --> 01:03:17,880
Speaker 2: Jazz game. Utah was favored by seven and a half.

1324
01:03:18,120 --> 01:03:19,360
Speaker 4: This, by the way, brought to you by.

1325
01:03:19,360 --> 01:03:22,800
Speaker 2: Bet MGM and the Jazz cover. They won by I

1326
01:03:22,800 --> 01:03:25,840
Speaker 2: believe twelve in the end. So that's a victory for

1327
01:03:26,040 --> 01:03:29,320
Speaker 2: Lee who's five and one here in the month of October.

1328
01:03:29,360 --> 01:03:31,720
Speaker 2: What a hot start for him. Tass and I finally

1329
01:03:31,760 --> 01:03:34,840
Speaker 2: got a victory. We improve for that in aar quotes,

1330
01:03:35,000 --> 01:03:37,040
Speaker 2: excuse me, I got some victor caught in my throat

1331
01:03:37,280 --> 01:03:40,600
Speaker 2: to two and four, and Treya, you swerved you had Denver.

1332
01:03:41,120 --> 01:03:44,280
Speaker 2: That's an l your three and three. But what's tonight's game?

1333
01:03:44,680 --> 01:03:44,919
Speaker 1: Test?

1334
01:03:45,600 --> 01:03:51,480
Speaker 3: The Memphis Grizzlies visiting the Portland Trailblazers obviously dame off

1335
01:03:51,480 --> 01:03:53,840
Speaker 3: to a very bad start this year. You's shooting eight

1336
01:03:53,880 --> 01:03:56,960
Speaker 3: percent from three point Land, He's taken twenty four to

1337
01:03:57,000 --> 01:03:59,560
Speaker 3: threes only hit two of them. Will he come around

1338
01:03:59,800 --> 01:04:03,560
Speaker 3: to take control this game against the Memphis Grizzlies, who

1339
01:04:03,840 --> 01:04:06,600
Speaker 3: they should be fighting for in the standings, fighting for

1340
01:04:06,600 --> 01:04:09,200
Speaker 3: a spot with in the standings. Grizzlies are two and one,

1341
01:04:09,680 --> 01:04:13,520
Speaker 3: great start, and the Blazers are one into Portland at

1342
01:04:13,520 --> 01:04:16,720
Speaker 3: home a two and a half point favorite. Excuse myself

1343
01:04:16,760 --> 01:04:19,240
Speaker 3: and Tree Lake Portland, while Lee like's the Bears.

1344
01:04:20,320 --> 01:04:23,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, Lee, were you purposely swerving or you know you're

1345
01:04:23,840 --> 01:04:26,600
Speaker 2: all in on this grizzly team being a pretty damn good.

1346
01:04:27,120 --> 01:04:29,040
Speaker 5: I think it's that one more so than the first one.

1347
01:04:29,040 --> 01:04:31,240
Speaker 5: It wasn't a purposeful swerve because I got in there,

1348
01:04:31,360 --> 01:04:33,480
Speaker 5: I think second in the pick. So yeah, I just

1349
01:04:33,560 --> 01:04:35,200
Speaker 5: like the way that John RAN's been playing. There a

1350
01:04:35,280 --> 01:04:37,400
Speaker 5: bit of a longish road trip to start the season,

1351
01:04:37,400 --> 01:04:38,800
Speaker 5: but they are a young team and they've got a

1352
01:04:38,840 --> 01:04:41,840
Speaker 5: couple of days off in between games there. I think

1353
01:04:41,840 --> 01:04:44,240
Speaker 5: Sunday was their last game, so they've got a couple

1354
01:04:44,280 --> 01:04:46,600
Speaker 5: of days to get their legs fresh. And had some

1355
01:04:46,640 --> 01:04:49,600
Speaker 5: good battles in Portland last season too, so I hope

1356
01:04:49,600 --> 01:04:51,400
Speaker 5: they can keep it going. And even if they do

1357
01:04:51,560 --> 01:04:53,720
Speaker 5: lose by up to two points, I could still get

1358
01:04:53,720 --> 01:04:54,400
Speaker 5: the w here.

1359
01:04:54,480 --> 01:04:59,400
Speaker 7: Yeah, I just couldn't find an emoji for Blazers.

1360
01:05:03,360 --> 01:05:03,960
Speaker 2: It is true.

1361
01:05:04,200 --> 01:05:06,360
Speaker 5: It is a little tough to find the old Trailblazers

1362
01:05:06,560 --> 01:05:09,800
Speaker 5: emoji there. There's a couple that don't really work on

1363
01:05:09,800 --> 01:05:12,720
Speaker 5: my keyboard. So yeah, wells have to see how the

1364
01:05:12,760 --> 01:05:15,200
Speaker 5: season pans out and see which side I'm gonna pick on.

1365
01:05:15,840 --> 01:05:18,680
Speaker 4: Never gonna pick Portland the whole season. I feel like

1366
01:05:18,720 --> 01:05:22,240
Speaker 4: there's like a winding road emoji and obviously a fire,

1367
01:05:22,520 --> 01:05:23,800
Speaker 4: so that might be your best bet.

1368
01:05:24,000 --> 01:05:27,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, okay, I had trouble finding like the Lakers

1369
01:05:28,400 --> 01:05:29,720
Speaker 5: the other day. I was looking at him.

1370
01:05:29,960 --> 01:05:32,240
Speaker 2: I had to go, Sun, Hey, whatever, just keep doing

1371
01:05:32,240 --> 01:05:35,040
Speaker 2: it because you're five and what working your emoji picks

1372
01:05:35,160 --> 01:05:37,040
Speaker 2: is working out pretty well for you. Okay. So three

1373
01:05:37,040 --> 01:05:39,000
Speaker 2: of us take in the Blazers to win by three

1374
01:05:39,080 --> 01:05:42,160
Speaker 2: or more points, and leally does have the Grizzlies on

1375
01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:43,840
Speaker 2: the road to at least keep it very close or

1376
01:05:43,880 --> 01:05:46,360
Speaker 2: to even win outright where they have one before. I

1377
01:05:46,440 --> 01:05:49,120
Speaker 2: think most of us are banking on a big, let's

1378
01:05:49,160 --> 01:05:51,960
