Speaker 1: Still, we're gonna be talking a little bit about the

14
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,160
Speaker 1: play in games. We've got our playoff field set. We'll

15
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:58,760
Speaker 1: get into our one to eight playoff previews as well.

16
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:00,480
Speaker 1: Had a couple of games tonight, one of them an

17
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:04,840
Speaker 1: absolute banger, one of us an okay game as well.

18
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 1: But let's start with that first one, the Heat and

19
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:10,760
Speaker 1: the Hawks a banger down at the Fortress Ashwall. I

20
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 1: know you were there one twenty three, one fourteen for

21
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 1: Miami to advance into the actual playoffs on the strength

22
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 1: of Davion Mitchell going nuts in overtime tasks. Uh, do

23
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,319
Speaker 1: you enjoy watching this game? Is this the greatest play

24
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 1: in game we've ever seen?

25
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 3: I'm not just living in the moment. This was the

26
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:37,680
Speaker 3: best play in tournament we have had period. I know

27
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 3: the Grizzlies Maps game wasn't incredible. To end this night,

28
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 3: sure fine, But to start it off with the Grizzlies

29
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:47,960
Speaker 3: and the Warriors the other night, to have this one

30
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 3: that we had here where it sure looked like the

31
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 3: Hawks were taking this one. I was ready to rename

32
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 3: Anyaka congu aka king Wu. I mean, this guy was phenomenal.

33
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:05,200
Speaker 3: He was so good. He just gave that team the

34
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 3: life that it needed. I was looking up Dwight Howard's

35
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 3: house that he's selling in Atlanta, and I was wondering

36
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:14,239
Speaker 3: if they should just give that thing to a Naka Kongo.

37
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 3: I mean the block and the shot steel after Steele

38
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 3: poking it away, he poked it away from Tyler hero

39
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 3: George Niang came and showed up in this game. What

40
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 3: everybody wondering what George Niang was doing. But the heat

41
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 3: had enough and as you said there, Trey Davion Mitchell

42
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 3: in overtime had more points than the Atlanta Hawks did. Yeah,

43
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 3: nine points. In that ot the offensive rebound with fifty

44
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,120
Speaker 3: seconds left, where he essentially stole the ball from Trey

45
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 3: Young and then stepped out and banged home with three

46
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 3: to seal it. I mean, this is a bench player

47
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 3: who is able to get under Trey Young's skin and

48
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:58,079
Speaker 3: be able to play forty four minutes in this game,

49
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,239
Speaker 3: or forty minutes excuse me, in this game. I mean

50
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:08,359
Speaker 3: he's their new gay Vincent. He honestly played to absolutely

51
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 3: all of his potential tonight. So yeah, it was a real,

52
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,519
Speaker 3: real fun game. But they Yeah, you just didn't see

53
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 3: that coming from the Heat to be able to throw

54
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 3: in a Davion Mitchell and Hayward Heismith off the bench

55
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 3: to be able to fill in. So yeah, a fun

56
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 3: one for everybody other than esh I guess yeah.

57
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 1: The true definition of a game of runs. Davion Mitchell

58
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 1: the last run in the game, nine points in overtime,

59
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 1: sixteen for the game, Ash, take me through the highs

60
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 1: and the lows. Trey Young hits the miraculous layup at

61
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 1: the end of regulation. Great shot cut to skeets and grish,

62
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 1: we'll show it in a little bit later. Tough shot though, Heat,

63
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 1: don't get one can't score. We go into overtime, and

64
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 1: then Davion Mitchell goes nuts, especially that last backbreaking play,

65
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: Like tass is saying, Trey Young dares him to shoot

66
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 1: the three. He shoots it, he misses, but Daveyon out

67
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 1: hustles Trey for the offensive rebound finds its the way

68
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 1: back to Davey On Mitchell. He knocks it down crazy times.

69
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 1: What was it like being down there at State Farm Arena?

70
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 4: It was actually pretty lit in there was It was

71
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 4: rocking my buddy that I went with, Steven. He was like,

72
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,600
Speaker 4: this place is never so loud. It's really loud in here,

73
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 4: and as the game went on, it just got louder

74
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,559
Speaker 4: and louder. But the play that you guys are talking about,

75
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:26,400
Speaker 4: Trey Young dares and to shoot. Literally all Trey has

76
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 4: to do is just jump and grab the ball, but

77
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,360
Speaker 4: he's just staring at it. I watched that play three

78
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,600
Speaker 4: times on the way home, just like, Trey, what are

79
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:34,040
Speaker 4: you doing?

80
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 5: Man? Because that was the stuff we needed.

81
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,039
Speaker 4: Also in overtime, after trade comes down, he hits the

82
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 4: big three, had a stop. We're down by three, I

83
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,479
Speaker 4: think at the time, and then he gets fouled by

84
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 4: Davey on Mitchell. They Trey doesn't touch the ball again.

85
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 4: For the next possession, they passed the ball in. It

86
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 4: touches every other Hawk's hand, does not touch Trey Young's hand,

87
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 4: and then we just not able to finish and not

88
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,159
Speaker 4: able to capitalize on the moment all and Daveian Mitchell

89
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 4: takes a home for the heat. I mean, it is

90
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,160
Speaker 4: a great game. I had a good time. It's like

91
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 4: for the Hogs, like, oh my gosh, to.

92
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 5: Come in here. I don't even think they had that

93
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 5: bad of a season, but.

94
00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 3: You know, yeah, I.

95
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,239
Speaker 1: Think it's easy to forget at this point that Jalen

96
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:20,799
Speaker 1: Johnson has missed basically half the season. He would certainly

97
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 1: help because you know, with their backups, they're choosing between

98
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,359
Speaker 1: Mogay and Dominic Barlow. They both have their strengths, but

99
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,720
Speaker 1: neither of their highs are as high as Jalen Johnson,

100
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 1: and he takes a lot of the pressure off Trey Young.

101
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 1: You saw how important George Niang was functioning in the

102
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 1: Jalen Johnson role, playing in the short role, sometimes getting

103
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 1: to the hoop, maybe a little too much dip on

104
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 1: his chip, going for the hook inside the lay left

105
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 1: it a little bit short there.

106
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 4: You know, it had been great if Zachary Resache came

107
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:51,040
Speaker 4: to play basketball.

108
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 5: I don't know if he was there or not. Did

109
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:53,279
Speaker 5: you guys see.

110
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 2: Him the game game in the last probably thirty.

111
00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:01,599
Speaker 3: Minutes, both these games games, the playing tournament games too,

112
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 3: He wasn't there. He just was not living up to

113
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:08,040
Speaker 3: the to the all the rookie of the year talk

114
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:10,600
Speaker 3: all of a sudden his last run here where you know,

115
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 3: he's just dropping four thirty point games, the only rookie

116
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,800
Speaker 3: to do that, scored the most points in a single game.

117
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,159
Speaker 3: But yeah, these two games, he was not there. So yes,

118
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 3: Jalen Johnson's freaking important to this team and he's their

119
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:24,839
Speaker 3: second best player. So that possession early or excuse me,

120
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 3: late in the fourth quarter where Trey gives it up

121
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 3: to Dyson Daniels, who gives it up to George Yankee

122
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,039
Speaker 3: Trice to make something from the corner, I mean the

123
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 3: second best player is clearly Jalen Johnson and would be

124
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:36,839
Speaker 3: making the play over that. I mean, those two guys,

125
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:41,480
Speaker 3: Trey and Jalen Johnson were top five and passes this

126
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 3: game because or excuse me, this season, because you rely

127
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 3: so much on Trey and then if he's doing everything himself,

128
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,520
Speaker 3: the first guy that he gives it up to, she's

129
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 3: got to make things happen. And Jalen Johnson has been awesome.

130
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 3: Lots of questions coming up in the offseason for them

131
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 3: because Jalen Johnson just hasn't been able to stay on

132
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 3: the floor a lot periods. Sominin.

133
00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 1: The main question for the Hawks is going to be

134
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 1: Trey Young's future, if he wants to sign an extension

135
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 1: with Atlanta, if Atlanta wants to offer him a massive

136
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: deal to continue being here going forward. That is going

137
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,240
Speaker 1: to be the number one question to figure out, especially

138
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 1: the way this season ended. They lost two play in

139
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 1: games to not make the playoffs, right, that's a step

140
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,680
Speaker 1: backwards yet again for Atlanta. So I think that's something

141
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 1: we'll be talking a lot about this summer. What kind

142
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 1: of trade packages could even be available to Trey our

143
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 1: for Tray and just what's the future of this team,

144
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,360
Speaker 1: because I mean, he's still young, but he is a

145
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: little older than Daniels and Jalen Johnson, and of course

146
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 1: Resochet who just came into the league this season. I

147
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 1: thought good performances though for Niang and Lavert. Of course,

148
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 1: a Coongwu was really good as well. And then on

149
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 1: this the Heat side of things, Mitchell we talked about

150
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 1: quite a bit. Heyward high Smith was active, but I

151
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 1: thought the double big combo of Bam and khalil Ware

152
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 1: was really important for them. The band was super aggressive

153
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 1: in the first half. He was finding where for the

154
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 1: alley oops up top. They just looked a little bit

155
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 1: too big for Atlanta. And then we've kind of barely

156
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 1: bened his name. Tyler Hero had thirty points in this one,

157
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 1: seven assists, eight rebounds, hit three massive jumpers in the

158
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 1: fourth quarter after the Hawks had finally closed the lead.

159
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,000
Speaker 1: They took their first lead with about seven and a

160
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 1: half minutes left in the fourth Hero knocks down a

161
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 1: bunch of jumpers. Did miss a free throw at the

162
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 1: end of regulation, which made it okay for Trey Young

163
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 1: to go to the rim rather than trying to make

164
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 1: it three. But I thought still a good performance for

165
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 1: Hero thirty in this one. Had a huge game against.

166
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 3: The Bulls as well.

167
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 1: Hero pretty pretty clutch, I would have to say, making

168
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 1: the Heat get to the playoffs as the first ten

169
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 1: seed in NBA history.

170
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 2: What'd you think?

171
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:48,959
Speaker 3: Tests Yeah, he looked totally comfortable, and Dyson Daniels the

172
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,679
Speaker 3: incredible defender, and the Hawks were doing their best to

173
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 3: get under his skin, but he was using the pick

174
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,200
Speaker 3: and roll to get open and get comfortable, and he

175
00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 3: looked great period. I mean, he was the best player

176
00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 3: on the floor in this game, no question. So he

177
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 3: lived up to it all the questions after Jimmy was traded,

178
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 3: would he live up to it? He did. And Andrew

179
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 3: Wiggins came in. And Andrew Wiggins had one of those

180
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 3: games that you thought, I mean, has he missed every

181
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,680
Speaker 3: shot he took? I mean, it felt like he just

182
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 3: missed a ton. But he put enough in to help

183
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 3: out along with the double bigs as he mentioned, and

184
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:27,480
Speaker 3: then those guys off the bench were able to come

185
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:31,080
Speaker 3: in huge. It is funny to think of this Hawks

186
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 3: team and realized that they had the top scoring bench

187
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,080
Speaker 3: in the league in this season, and a lot of

188
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 3: it was because of DeAndre Hunter, but they gave him

189
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,600
Speaker 3: up for a couple guys in George Yang and Carri

190
00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 3: Sliford who came through tonight. But the Hawks, somehow we're

191
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:50,280
Speaker 3: not as deep as the Miami Heat. It was just

192
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 3: odd to feel that with David Mitchell and haywod Heismith

193
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,720
Speaker 3: coming off the bench. Yeah. They hero was great period.

194
00:09:57,920 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 3: He just was really good.

195
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:01,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's going to be an interesting matchup for

196
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 1: the Calves going forward. I don't know if you guys

197
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 1: got any random notes or if we should just fire

198
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 1: up this Skeets and Grish video because this one got

199
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:10,960
Speaker 1: my phone buzzing, so I can't imagine what it was

200
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 1: like for those guys down at the actual arena. Skeets

201
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 1: went to the game tonight with our buddy Grish. They

202
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:18,560
Speaker 1: were sitting right behind the heat bench. You could see

203
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 1: him all night long, but we didn't get an actual

204
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,720
Speaker 1: like close up of them until Trey hit the little

205
00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,480
Speaker 1: layup to send things to ot and we got just

206
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 1: the quickest cut what you're seeing here on YouTube of

207
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:33,400
Speaker 1: Skeets and Grish. Skeats, you know, pretty standard face and

208
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:35,080
Speaker 1: Grish is just telling him it's over.

209
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,840
Speaker 3: I have to imagine, why is that tongue out? Why

210
00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:42,840
Speaker 3: is that's his it's over tongue, That's what he's trying

211
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 3: to I don't.

212
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:47,320
Speaker 4: Know, sitting right behind the heats bench, and I could

213
00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 4: see them from where I was. I was sitting behind

214
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 4: the backboard I think that they were just kind of

215
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:53,680
Speaker 4: I think he was teasing the heat a little bit there, like, aha,

216
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 4: you coming to our house. We're about to get the

217
00:10:55,600 --> 00:11:00,320
Speaker 4: dub after the Trey Young layup there and all feel

218
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:01,960
Speaker 4: in the same way, like, you know, you know how

219
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,960
Speaker 4: it is in Atlanta. Everybody that comes in, you're either

220
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:08,680
Speaker 4: for the Hawks. It's really fifty to fifty for the Hawks,

221
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,560
Speaker 4: or for the heat. My buddy that went with a

222
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,560
Speaker 4: heat fan. We're sitting with a bunch of heat fans

223
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,560
Speaker 4: half to Arena's going back and forth. I think they

224
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,960
Speaker 4: were just trying to say, hey, this is Atlanta. You know,

225
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 4: we heard all the let's go heat then we were

226
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 4: trying to drown them out with the let's go hogs

227
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 4: and the you know, all the Hawks chants and didn't

228
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 4: work in our favorite.

229
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,080
Speaker 2: You said your buddy's name was Steve Steven.

230
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:32,440
Speaker 5: Yeah.

231
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,080
Speaker 2: Nice, you call him your buddy Stephen, our buddy Stephen.

232
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:36,439
Speaker 5: I do call him my buddy Steven.

233
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:40,319
Speaker 1: At this point, welcome to the buddy list.

234
00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 3: Our buddy Grish, our buddy Griss should just be watching

235
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:48,200
Speaker 3: George and Yang and watching footage of George Yang and

236
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 3: take that home and trained like George and Yang because

237
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 3: they have similar bodies, similar game types. And did you

238
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 3: see George and yank tonight? He double had a double

239
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 3: move on Tyler went past Tyler, Harroll moved from the corner.

240
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:05,560
Speaker 3: I mean, Georgi Yang was awesome. Dave Grisham could be

241
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 3: that guy if he keeps training.

242
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,360
Speaker 1: It's funny that you say that Dave Grisham has a

243
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:15,199
Speaker 1: similar body to George Niang, because I think Kyle Anderson

244
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:19,080
Speaker 1: has the identical body to George Niang. They both were

245
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:22,960
Speaker 1: twenty as well. They just looked like swapped versions of

246
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:27,080
Speaker 1: each other. Kyle Anderson hit two crazy shots at the

247
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 1: end of the third quarter, like bailout threes. Well one

248
00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 1: was a foot on the line, so five just like

249
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:35,440
Speaker 1: random points. When the Heat were in the process of

250
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 1: blowing things. We talked about the first playing game. It

251
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 1: looked like the Heat were trying to give the way

252
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 1: the game to the Bulls, and the Bulls just couldn't

253
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 1: take it.

254
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 2: At least the.

255
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,079
Speaker 1: Hawks went and took it. I thought those Kyle Anderson's

256
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,199
Speaker 1: shots were massive at the time, though you know that

257
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,360
Speaker 1: Heat did go on to blow it. Eventually they went

258
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:52,439
Speaker 1: on their run as well, and then we got to

259
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,079
Speaker 1: look at it, Skeets and Grish, great times. Let's see

260
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 1: it one more time.

261
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:56,959
Speaker 3: Let's see it one more time.

262
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 2: I know people were.

263
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:00,480
Speaker 1: Excited to put a face to the name because, like

264
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:02,080
Speaker 1: what I told people, that's our buddy Grisse.

265
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:07,200
Speaker 2: They went wild fund watching.

266
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 1: It was fun watching Skeets celebrate as well, doing like

267
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 1: his classic three point celebrations and stuff. Good times, good

268
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 1: times down at the Fortress. I'm sure even though it

269
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:18,680
Speaker 1: was the last time at the Fortress. That was the

270
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:25,320
Speaker 1: banger game from the night. In the other game we

271
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:28,000
Speaker 1: even started before that thing ended. The Grizzlies ended up

272
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 1: beating the Mavericks. They're gonna go on to face the

273
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,680
Speaker 1: Thunder in the playoffs. Not quite as much drama in

274
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,560
Speaker 1: this one task. But what did you take away from

275
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 1: the Grizzlies handling the Mavericks pretty easily?

276
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:43,200
Speaker 3: The ankle entry, obviously with John Morant, the broadcasters said

277
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 3: it right away in the first quarter, was not a

278
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:49,040
Speaker 3: problem that he sustained in the first game against the

279
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 3: Golden State Warriors. My gut that put back dunk was

280
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 3: inkredle and picturesque. I mean the low anger cam that

281
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,440
Speaker 3: was so beautiful that he was able to sprint in

282
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,480
Speaker 3: from the three point line and throw that baby down.

283
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 3: So they got out to that early lead. And yeah,

284
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 3: the MAVs just need a guard. I mean, simple as that.

285
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:14,959
Speaker 3: I was just hoping for what we got with Clay

286
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:18,040
Speaker 3: getting hot against the Warriors, and he did turn it

287
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:20,320
Speaker 3: on later, but I mean, he couldn't get it going

288
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:22,880
Speaker 3: on early. Decided his first shot was going to be

289
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:27,520
Speaker 3: that one leg at three pointer leaner when it's in

290
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 3: the play by play as a twenty seven foot floater

291
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 3: or however long it was. I mean, it was surprising

292
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 3: to see that, but yeah, they just needed somebody to

293
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 3: help out. Anthony Davis and these first quarter leads, tray,

294
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 3: it is surprising that sometimes they do mean something. I mean,

295
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 3: they just couldn't fight back, and they kept going and

296
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,480
Speaker 3: Anthony Davis kept going. And I love the trash talk

297
00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:52,520
Speaker 3: with John Morant, the micd up I'll guard you. Come on,

298
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 3: you know I ain't going nowhere, So that was fun.

299
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 3: And Anthony Davis, I mean when I say he.

300
00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:02,600
Speaker 2: Can, unfortunately he did go somewhere. Yeah, he left, he

301
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 2: did have to leave.

302
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:07,400
Speaker 3: Actually hilarious that ESPN as Anthony Dais goes to the

303
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:12,040
Speaker 3: bench with eight minutes left. First shot, they don't hesitate,

304
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 3: goes right to Nico Harrison, how do you feeling Nico

305
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 3: just to see how he's doing at.

306
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:19,640
Speaker 1: The Nico cam locked off tonight for sure.

307
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:21,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, any any.

308
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,080
Speaker 1: Sort of drama for the MAVs. They're like, I get

309
00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 1: a shot of Nico and but I'm surprised to get

310
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:27,400
Speaker 1: your after that.

311
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 2: He came back.

312
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, Davis was in and out for quite some time,

313
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 1: and he definitely was limping around. He actually had an

314
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 1: incredible game. Forty points for Anthony Davis, nine rebounds, a block,

315
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 1: a steal, a couple assists as well. Final score was

316
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 1: one twenty one oh six for Memphis. Davis really carried

317
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,280
Speaker 1: the team on his back. Brandon Williams had some moments,

318
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 1: I thought, but wasn't quite as effective as he was

319
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 1: against the Kings. You totally nailed it. The Grizzlies didn't

320
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 1: let the Mavericks off the hook for not having guards.

321
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 1: There were so many turnovers, so hard to get into offense,

322
00:15:58,680 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 1: I thought.

323
00:15:59,040 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 2: For Dallas.

324
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,600
Speaker 1: They finished with sixteen turnovers on the night. A lot

325
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 1: of those came in the first half when Dallas or

326
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 1: when the Grizzlies were building out their big lead, and

327
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:09,800
Speaker 1: that's just the way they want to play, being able

328
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:13,160
Speaker 1: to run and gun get out into transition. Job was

329
00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:14,920
Speaker 1: pretty good, like you're saying, I thought he looked okay.

330
00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 1: Twenty two points, nine assists, seven rebounds, Sky And for

331
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:21,040
Speaker 1: that dunk, he dunked so hard he dunked on Santi Aldama,

332
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 1: like spiked off the top of his head. That was

333
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:26,000
Speaker 1: pretty awesome. Bain was great again, twenty two points. Zach

334
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:30,480
Speaker 1: Edie really made an impact fifteen and eleven for him,

335
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 1: and Jared Jackson Junior stayed on the court for the

336
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 1: most part twenty four points on ten of eighteen shooting.

337
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:38,240
Speaker 1: This is a great performance for Memphis. I thought they

338
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:41,080
Speaker 1: played a bad first half against Golden State, but they

339
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 1: were pretty good in the third and fourth quarter and

340
00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 1: then and this one, they faltered a little bit in

341
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:49,160
Speaker 1: the third, but pretty solid I thought for four quarters.

342
00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:51,280
Speaker 1: So a decent play in tournament for Memphis.

343
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:55,480
Speaker 3: Yeah. Absolutely. And on the other side, you got to

344
00:16:55,520 --> 00:17:00,960
Speaker 3: get performances from PJ. Washington Is is always the MAVs

345
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:04,480
Speaker 3: barometer and for him to to not find a flow whatsoever,

346
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 3: he just was flowless. He'd score was.

347
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:11,920
Speaker 1: Just fillin' Yah's fallin' five files for PJ Washington tonight

348
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 1: twenty seven minutes only he was completely out of rhythm,

349
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,440
Speaker 1: like you said, zero pointsh five, shooting oh.

350
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:19,399
Speaker 3: For three from three as well. Yeah, he was the

351
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:22,240
Speaker 3: guy that was important to get them to the finals.

352
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:26,639
Speaker 3: I mean he put he continuously put forth efforts in

353
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:28,960
Speaker 3: every single series. So it was you know, it kind

354
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 3: of sucks not to seem to be able to do

355
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:34,600
Speaker 3: that because he did, but he did put forth that effort.

356
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 3: Was mad about the whole booing that mas fans had

357
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:42,000
Speaker 3: after the donchet trade. But one other thing about the

358
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 3: don Chech trade that didn't work out is Max Christie

359
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:47,400
Speaker 3: had a fairly quiet game. I mean he did come

360
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,320
Speaker 3: off the bench and put in eleven points, but I

361
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,359
Speaker 3: was just looking for an answer to get them into

362
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:55,440
Speaker 3: that their offense, and Max Christy obviously is an off

363
00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:59,920
Speaker 3: the ball type of guy. But nobody could really do enough,

364
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:03,400
Speaker 3: as you mentioned Brandon Williams, who has been awesome these

365
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 3: two games, but yeah, just not enough. After getting down

366
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 3: in that first quarter, they just really couldn't fight through.

367
00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:14,439
Speaker 3: But yeah, those bench points for the Grizzlies, they're fast

368
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 3: breaking as much as they could. And then those points

369
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 3: off the turnovers, they're a little too much, they're deeper.

370
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly right. No points for PJ. Washington, like we said,

371
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:27,880
Speaker 1: no points for Derek Lively. Meanwhile, you're getting six points

372
00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 1: off the bench from Marvin Bagley. Santi al Dama has eleven.

373
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,960
Speaker 1: I thought John Conchar was huge in this game, getting

374
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:38,399
Speaker 1: five points and yeah, yeah, and you know, maybe if

375
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 1: somebody was along for the ride with Anthony Davis, he

376
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:41,719
Speaker 1: wouldn't have had to gut through it. But I give

377
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:43,520
Speaker 1: that guy a lot of credit. Like you're saying, he

378
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,520
Speaker 1: probably came back too early the first time he got

379
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:50,399
Speaker 1: hurt with Dallas after those historic two and a half quarters.

380
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:52,640
Speaker 1: He maybe rushed back after the trade because he wanted

381
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 1: to show up. Then he showed up again at the

382
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:56,359
Speaker 1: end of the season to get them into the play

383
00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:59,440
Speaker 1: in tournament. Then he played his balls off in both

384
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:03,639
Speaker 1: of these games games and eventually did leave. But pretty

385
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:06,159
Speaker 1: gritty performance, I thought from Davis, and exactly what you

386
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,520
Speaker 1: want from the guy who's going to be your franchise superstar.

387
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:10,679
Speaker 1: Like it or not, this is the guy for Dallas

388
00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,600
Speaker 1: right now, especially next season with Kyrie still out. So

389
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 1: a lot of credit to Davis. I think for really

390
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:18,480
Speaker 1: coming to play on a night when they were pretty

391
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:20,719
Speaker 1: much drawn dead against the Grizzlies team that was fired up.

392
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:25,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, the roster has a lot of life despite everything

393
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:30,640
Speaker 3: going on behind the scenes with Nico Harrison. As I mentioned, PJ.

394
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:34,880
Speaker 3: Washington just said, I'm I'm tired of everybody booing us

395
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,639
Speaker 3: and Anthony Davis going to the bench and when he

396
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:42,679
Speaker 3: was having his leg looked at, he turned around and

397
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 3: was talking to somebody pretty high up. It seemed like

398
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,639
Speaker 3: in the stance like at least four or five rose up,

399
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 3: So he was making it a point that he was

400
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:54,760
Speaker 3: going to address whatever the ref was saying to him,

401
00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:57,359
Speaker 3: like from the bench. You don't often see that. But

402
00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 3: all that to say, yes, the Luka Dancich trade has

403
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:05,119
Speaker 3: put a cloud over that team, but the players continue

404
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 3: to scrap and as you said, he is their superstar

405
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 3: and he's working his butt off, and obviously without Kyrie

406
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,320
Speaker 3: irving out there, Yeah, there's a lot to be left

407
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:22,200
Speaker 3: for desire for these fans. I mean, one thing that

408
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:24,960
Speaker 3: Nico Harrison gets away with is the Quentin Grimes trade

409
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:26,960
Speaker 3: for Caleb Martin. I mean they lost that trade to

410
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 3: it sure feels like at this point, but.

411
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:32,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, that's the JV version of the Luca trade basically.

412
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:36,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it was fun to see Anthony Edwards continuously

413
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 3: scrap and everything going through him and producing.

414
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, And as the stream team is mentioning, last thing

415
00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:45,600
Speaker 1: before we move off this game, talk about some play

416
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:49,359
Speaker 1: off series. Great game for Zach Edie. I mentioned him quickly,

417
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:53,359
Speaker 1: but fifteen points on seven of nine shooting. He didn't

418
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:55,000
Speaker 1: turn the ball over. I just thought he was so

419
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 1: much quicker with his decisions, you know, definitely a more

420
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 1: favorable matchup sin The Mavericks played Big two, so it's

421
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 1: not as much of a speed issue for him. But

422
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,600
Speaker 1: he was much more poised, I thought, than he was

423
00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,760
Speaker 1: against Draymond and the Warriors. So good game for him.

424
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,159
Speaker 1: Last thing I got for you on play in games

425
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:17,359
Speaker 1: here task, This is my all play in team as

426
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:17,920
Speaker 1: of tonight.

427
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 2: After how many games did we watch?

428
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 3: I guess what? Six?

429
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,920
Speaker 1: Six games? Okay, here's your the all playing team. Cole

430
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:29,159
Speaker 1: Anthony makes the team. Sure basically won the magic a

431
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:32,359
Speaker 1: playoff spot. I thought, Tyler Hero, you're also on the

432
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:35,400
Speaker 1: all play in team thirty eight against the Bulls thirty

433
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 1: tonight in their win leading the heat to the playoffs

434
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,439
Speaker 1: as the first ten seed ever. I got Jimmy Butler

435
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:43,880
Speaker 1: and Steph Curry both making the team. They can buy

436
00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 1: him for seventy five points in their win over Memphis.

437
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:48,919
Speaker 3: And then my final got big.

438
00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:50,920
Speaker 2: Okay, I didn't go with the big.

439
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm the old guy who's like, you need a shitter,

440
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:55,400
Speaker 3: it doesn't matter who.

441
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,199
Speaker 2: You're Probably right, I didn't. I should have thought of

442
00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 2: it that way.

443
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:01,919
Speaker 1: But when the committee sent over or the rules and regulations,

444
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 1: they didn't mention that I needed to have a perfect team.

445
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 1: They said, treat it like a high school tournament. Just

446
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:07,359
Speaker 1: put the high scores.

447
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:08,840
Speaker 3: On the gay. So who's your fifth best player?

448
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:12,359
Speaker 1: I was more thinking of the teams, which Grizzly was

449
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:15,600
Speaker 1: I gonna take? And ultimately I think it's Desmond Baine.

450
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 1: I thought he was awesome against the Warriors, really kept

451
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:21,880
Speaker 1: him in the game, made it even a chance at

452
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 1: being a competitive game in their first one, and then

453
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,040
Speaker 1: twenty two points nine assists tonight.

454
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:28,320
Speaker 2: He scored just as much.

455
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,760
Speaker 1: As John moranp Maybe you would go Jared Jackson Junior,

456
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:33,639
Speaker 1: just off the strength of tonight. He wasn't great against

457
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:36,400
Speaker 1: the Warriors. I just thought Bain had the best two

458
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:38,120
Speaker 1: games of anybody on the Grizzlies.

459
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 3: You need to take a team that's advancing, I understand.

460
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:46,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it would have been Anthony Davis if they've won, obviously.

461
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, he gets in for me. Sixty seven points over

462
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:54,480
Speaker 3: two games. Solid, solid tournament. Man, that's a nice tournament.

463
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:57,879
Speaker 3: A nice two game run in that tournament. There you

464
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:00,879
Speaker 3: got anything else on the play I didn't know how

465
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:04,440
Speaker 3: I felt about the Grizzlies playing in Vancouver Grizzlies jerseys

466
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:05,920
Speaker 3: in a play in tournament.

467
00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:09,040
Speaker 2: Oh, you like to get you like the purity of

468
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:11,440
Speaker 2: the play it? Well, yeah, I don't know, rep your city.

469
00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:14,119
Speaker 3: It's just one game, So does it does it matter?

470
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:16,720
Speaker 3: I guess not. They won and they look great and

471
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:20,640
Speaker 3: the throwback court is awesome. It looks great.

472
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:21,880
Speaker 2: It does.

473
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:24,240
Speaker 1: That's the funny thing is that it's their coolest look

474
00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:26,199
Speaker 1: for sure. But then you're like, alsot, this is one

475
00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:28,240
Speaker 1: of the biggest moments in Vancouver Grizzlies history.

476
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:28,840
Speaker 3: It is.

477
00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:31,360
Speaker 2: It's one of their biggest wins. I have to imagine.

478
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 3: Yep, unfortunately, but all let's stick.

479
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:35,040
Speaker 2: With those Grizzlies.

480
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:38,159
Speaker 1: They did advance to the playoffs with their win tonight,

481
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 1: they get the gift of taking on the Oklahoma City Thunder,

482
00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:44,600
Speaker 1: who have the greatest point differential in history and sixty

483
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:47,720
Speaker 1: eight wins, best in the Western Conference, best in the

484
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:52,439
Speaker 1: entire NBA. So tasks. If you were going to make

485
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:55,280
Speaker 1: an argument that there's one downside to be in the

486
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,080
Speaker 1: one seed, it's that you don't have as much time

487
00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 1: to prepare. You know, we're finding out the match up

488
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:02,680
Speaker 1: tonight at twelve thirty am Eastern time. They're gonna have

489
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:05,560
Speaker 1: to play on Sunday. They don't have as much prep time.

490
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 1: We don't have as much prep time to think about

491
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 1: our X factors, our Y factors or whatever factors. What's

492
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:15,440
Speaker 1: what is one thing you're watching in Thunder Grizzlies.

493
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:18,680
Speaker 3: Well, I know Mark Dagnott, as head coach of Oka

494
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:22,320
Speaker 3: See has put in his time. He's putting as much

495
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:26,120
Speaker 3: time as possible looking at the MAVs and the Grizzlies,

496
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:29,919
Speaker 3: and he's ready for this Grizzlies team that I'll be

497
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:34,320
Speaker 3: watching the Biggs up against Hartenstein and chet Holmgren. I

498
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 3: mean they went and got Hartenstein because they got beat

499
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 3: by the MAVs last year on the boards, and they

500
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:42,680
Speaker 3: weren't big enough, and I do want to see them

501
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:46,919
Speaker 3: against Zach Edy and Jaron Jackson Junior. Now, okay, see,

502
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:49,600
Speaker 3: just doesn't allow points in the paint, they're number one

503
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:52,080
Speaker 3: in that, but they do allow some second chance points.

504
00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:53,040
Speaker 2: If I'm trying to be.

505
00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:56,120
Speaker 3: All positive for the Memphis Grizzlies thinking how they can

506
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:59,400
Speaker 3: score some extra points, I mean they're twenty okayse, he's

507
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,120
Speaker 3: twenty four in allowing second chance points, so he could

508
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 3: see some from Zach Edy on misses. I mean, Memphis

509
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,919
Speaker 3: hasn't beat this team since twenty twenty two, which is fricking.

510
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,440
Speaker 1: I couldn't believe that was that George Sadano that said

511
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:16,040
Speaker 1: just now, and I'm like, what nine straight wins?

512
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:18,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, see, I was a little surprised by that.

513
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:18,480
Speaker 3: Yeah.

514
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:20,920
Speaker 1: I mean obviously Jaw was out for probably a lot

515
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:22,880
Speaker 1: of those games last season, but still.

516
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:26,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean they spanked him every game this season

517
00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:29,919
Speaker 3: by seventy five total. So I think they're just going

518
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 3: to have to collect some misses, and it's going to

519
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:36,280
Speaker 3: be tough to do that against heart Anderstein and Holmgren.

520
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:38,199
Speaker 3: I mean, they didn't play a ton together. They only

521
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:41,639
Speaker 3: played twenty games together. Because Check got injured so early

522
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:44,160
Speaker 3: this season, but they were definitely good in those minutes

523
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 3: because you could see them both handling, both passing, both screening,

524
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:49,640
Speaker 3: both curling. I mean, they're both going to be so good.

525
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:53,000
Speaker 3: I'm so excited to watch Chet in year two, for him,

526
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:56,639
Speaker 3: just to see him in this postseason, because I mean,

527
00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 3: he spent his offseason, as he said, I saw this

528
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 3: quote he said offseason he was just playing bald. He

529
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:03,880
Speaker 3: said quote, I don't think I really did anything other

530
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:05,880
Speaker 3: than just work out and then chill until I could

531
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:08,680
Speaker 3: work out again. And so I'm excited just to see

532
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 3: him in Heart and Sign and what they can do

533
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 3: in the playoffs. And I mean I seem like a

534
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:18,520
Speaker 3: downer talking about the Bigs for Okac, but really, I mean,

535
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:22,879
Speaker 3: is there a way Trey that Memphis can steal a

536
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:24,119
Speaker 3: couple of games in this series.

537
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,719
Speaker 1: Well, I think you're right to hit on the Bigs

538
00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,480
Speaker 1: because that's part of the math or like the math

539
00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:31,760
Speaker 1: of beating the thunder.

540
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:33,119
Speaker 2: Like you're saying it's hard to do.

541
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, it obviously doesn't happen very often, but one of

542
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,959
Speaker 1: the key components is you've got to be able to

543
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:41,639
Speaker 1: crush it on the offensive class because they're probably going

544
00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:43,240
Speaker 1: to turn you over, so you need to get some

545
00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:45,720
Speaker 1: possessions back. Then you have to make your wide open

546
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,720
Speaker 1: three pointers because the Thunder do give up three point attempts.

547
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 1: They usually funnel it to bad shooters and in hurried situations.

548
00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:55,040
Speaker 1: But there are three point shots to be had, as

549
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:58,120
Speaker 1: we saw with PJ. Washington last year. You just got

550
00:26:58,119 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 1: to make all of those, and then when you do,

551
00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:02,399
Speaker 1: you gotta grab the offensive rebounds. It's a ton of

552
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:04,680
Speaker 1: stuff to do. But you know, the Grizzlies do play

553
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,240
Speaker 1: a seven foot five guy. That's helpful. This is definitely

554
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 1: a better matchup for Zach Edie than the Warriors would be.

555
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,600
Speaker 1: But uh, I think you're right then, or if the

556
00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:15,760
Speaker 1: Grizzlies have any chance, they gotta be big time on

557
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 1: the offensive glass, because the thunder are better at the

558
00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:21,639
Speaker 1: Grizzlies at what the Grizzlies like to do for forcing

559
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:25,200
Speaker 1: turnovers and getting into transition. So slowing the game down,

560
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:27,719
Speaker 1: slopping it up, that would be big for Memphis. We'll

561
00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:29,680
Speaker 1: see if they're able to do it, and it's gonna

562
00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:32,960
Speaker 1: be interesting to see because definitely Memphis has the bulkier guys,

563
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:37,600
Speaker 1: you know, Isaiah Hartenstein and Chet Holmgren aren't the thickest fellas.

564
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:39,840
Speaker 1: I did see Chet's got a new haircut. We'll see

565
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,199
Speaker 1: how that looks, but it should be a cool matchup

566
00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 1: for sure.

567
00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:45,159
Speaker 3: You gotta check that haircut.

568
00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:48,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's got some bangs going on. Shorter but like

569
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:53,160
Speaker 1: a like a swoopy bang. It's an interesting look. Yeah,

570
00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:54,600
Speaker 1: it doesn't look nearly as.

571
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:56,080
Speaker 2: Much like Abe Lincoln unfortunately.

572
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:59,120
Speaker 1: But one thing I'm watching is on the other end,

573
00:27:59,880 --> 00:28:02,119
Speaker 1: I'm not really sure who's gonna guard Shake gil Just

574
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:06,080
Speaker 1: Alexander for the Memphis Grizzlies. You know, obviously Shay is

575
00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 1: having an historic scoring season. He's having an MJ like season,

576
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:13,160
Speaker 1: a James Harden's style season. There is not a good

577
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:16,520
Speaker 1: matchup for him for Memphis. Now that Jalen Wells is

578
00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:18,320
Speaker 1: out for the season, he would be the guy that

579
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:22,439
Speaker 1: gets the assignment. Otherwise, I think it's probably gonna be

580
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:25,439
Speaker 1: some Scottie Pippen junior who's a little bit smaller than

581
00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 1: Shay guil Just Alexander. We know Shae loves to get

582
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,080
Speaker 1: into the mid range. Those are easy jumpers over the top.

583
00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:32,880
Speaker 1: But I wonder if maybe Vince Williams gets dusted off.

584
00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:35,920
Speaker 1: He barely played in Game one against the Warriors. I

585
00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:37,560
Speaker 1: don't know if he even got on the court maybe

586
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:39,720
Speaker 1: in garbage time tonight, but wasn't a big part of

587
00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:42,320
Speaker 1: the rotation. It's been more Conchar. I don't think Conchar

588
00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:45,800
Speaker 1: is probably an option, but maybe Vince Williams. But Shay

589
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 1: has been awesome against the entire league, and against the

590
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,400
Speaker 1: Grizzlies specifically, he was like thirty six points per game

591
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:54,520
Speaker 1: rather than just his standard old thirty, you know, shooting

592
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:56,280
Speaker 1: fifty six from the field. He's going to be a

593
00:28:56,320 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 1: tough cover for Memphis. And obviously he is this draw

594
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:02,840
Speaker 1: that stirs the drink. Maybe he's the spoon that stirs

595
00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:05,840
Speaker 1: the drink. I'm not exactly sure, but he's shaking the milkshake,

596
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:07,640
Speaker 1: and I don't know if there's anybody that's going to

597
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,040
Speaker 1: be able to drink it on Memphis.

598
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know if I was cooking there,

599
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:15,360
Speaker 2: but it kind of felt like.

600
00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:20,520
Speaker 3: It for a second, the spoon that stirs the milkshake. Sure,

601
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:23,960
Speaker 3: I don't know. Somebody will somehow make that into a

602
00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:27,600
Speaker 3: video of Shay drying fouls because people like to talk

603
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:28,080
Speaker 3: about that.

604
00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:29,200
Speaker 2: They do they do.

605
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:33,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's annoying, but Jayalen Wells will be missed period.

606
00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:37,000
Speaker 3: I think I just want to mention Brandon Clark's name

607
00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:40,320
Speaker 3: because I thought he would have been important against that

608
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:44,720
Speaker 3: Golden State Warriors front line, not so much against okay see,

609
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 3: but he could be used too, So it does suck

610
00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:49,240
Speaker 3: for both those guys. Yet you'll probably see Vince Williams

611
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 3: throw him out there. They need it. They need everything

612
00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:53,160
Speaker 3: you can throw at Shay.

613
00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:57,480
Speaker 1: As for X Factor's tasks, I'm gonna start first because

614
00:29:57,480 --> 00:29:59,680
Speaker 1: mine was going to be Zach Edie because I think

615
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 1: he at least has to be a part of the

616
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:04,840
Speaker 1: game plan, both for the Grizzlies figuring out a way

617
00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 1: to have him be effective and for the thunder Like you,

618
00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:10,239
Speaker 1: you've got to count for a guy that big, who

619
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 1: takes up that much space and can be that big

620
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 1: of a presence inside, Like we were talking about with

621
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 1: things that we're watching, Offensive rebounding and an interior presence

622
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 1: is going to be big time for the Grizzlies if

623
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:25,200
Speaker 1: they're able to pull off any sort of an upset

624
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:27,800
Speaker 1: when any of these games. You gotta rebound, you gotta

625
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,720
Speaker 1: hit threes to be Oklahoma City, and that means the

626
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:34,320
Speaker 1: edy has to be quick enough with the ball, with

627
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:38,640
Speaker 1: his decisions, getting the ball from the catching stage to

628
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:40,960
Speaker 1: the shooting stage, Like, those are things where I think

629
00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:43,720
Speaker 1: the thunder swarming defense could be a problem for him.

630
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:46,239
Speaker 1: So that's a guy that I'm definitely keeping my eyes on.

631
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:48,480
Speaker 1: And I just think it's interesting that, like, the dude's

632
00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:51,520
Speaker 1: a rookie, he plays hard, he plays a lot, and

633
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:53,680
Speaker 1: he's a big part of this team, and he's becoming

634
00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:56,800
Speaker 1: a bigger part of the team as the season is

635
00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:57,680
Speaker 1: getting more intense.

636
00:30:57,720 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 2: That's pretty surprising to me.

637
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, and from game one to Game two of the

638
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,880
Speaker 3: play in tournament, it feels like he grew. It was

639
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:08,800
Speaker 3: more comfortable. As we were talking about how they played

640
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:12,120
Speaker 3: the MAVs, you know, he just felt smarter, not bringing

641
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:15,960
Speaker 3: the ball down as much. He was absolutely feisty and

642
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:19,160
Speaker 3: got mad about that push in the back where he

643
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:23,040
Speaker 3: got a technical fell but the call was turned over,

644
00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:26,440
Speaker 3: but the tech wasn't rescinded. I think the tech should

645
00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 3: have been rescinded anyway. He has grown, and yeah, he

646
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:33,560
Speaker 3: will have to be big, but it feels like, yes,

647
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:36,320
Speaker 3: he is absolutely growing. It feels like Thomas Selo is

648
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:39,280
Speaker 3: getting through to him. These guys were all together and

649
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:43,000
Speaker 3: when you can mention John conchar and guys like that performing, Yeah,

650
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 3: this this Grizzlies team, they could impress. I wouldn't be.

651
00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:49,400
Speaker 2: Surprised if they steal a game.

652
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:52,280
Speaker 3: I wouldn't be surprised that at how how they fight.

653
00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:53,640
Speaker 3: But yes, they will have to be good on the

654
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:54,960
Speaker 3: offensive class, that's for sure.

655
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:57,040
Speaker 2: How about you, you got next factor?

656
00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 3: Well, mine's mine's a cop I think with Okay, see,

657
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:06,800
Speaker 3: I think their old guy that they signed, Alex Caruso.

658
00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:08,400
Speaker 3: Feels weird to call him an old guy, but he

659
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 3: is their old guy. He is ancient, you know, over thirty.

660
00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:17,040
Speaker 3: They got him because they need that grit in those

661
00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:20,320
Speaker 3: moments where last year in that second round against the

662
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:23,080
Speaker 3: Dallas Mavericks, they absolutely needed somebody who could be a

663
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:27,360
Speaker 3: connector on one end and then be an incredible defender

664
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:29,520
Speaker 3: on the other end and be the old guy, that

665
00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:33,600
Speaker 3: undrafted guy that just comes in and solves everything. And

666
00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:37,440
Speaker 3: so if there's a situation, I mean I am looking

667
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 3: a little bit further down into these situations, further into

668
00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:42,760
Speaker 3: the playoffs, but if there's a situation where it's a

669
00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:45,640
Speaker 3: close game in the fourth quarter. He is that guy

670
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:48,520
Speaker 3: that operates at the elbow and connects things and makes

671
00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:52,200
Speaker 3: a key play, shoots a corner three, or does those

672
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:54,960
Speaker 3: incredible things on the defensive end. So he is sort

673
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:58,320
Speaker 3: of there the guy when Shaye doesn't have it for

674
00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:01,440
Speaker 3: whatever reason, and Jalen Williams not have it for whatever reasons,

675
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:05,040
Speaker 3: and maybe Chet is on the bench because of foul trouble,

676
00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:08,120
Speaker 3: there's got to be a guy. It's probably Aaron Wiggins

677
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:10,600
Speaker 3: or Isaiah Joe, but it could be as Caruso as

678
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:13,840
Speaker 3: that old guy. So he's always your somebody I'm watching

679
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:17,040
Speaker 3: when you're watching the rotations with Okay, see if he's

680
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:19,400
Speaker 3: going to come off the bench and help out now

681
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:22,360
Speaker 3: against the Grizzlies, that is a pretty giant team. Maybe

682
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:24,240
Speaker 3: he'll be used a little bit less than he would

683
00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 3: be in rounds two in rounds three, but that guy

684
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:31,080
Speaker 3: can rebound. He'll get a rebound at any time. So

685
00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:32,800
Speaker 3: he's always a guy to watch.

686
00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, big Caruso fan love the way he plays,

687
00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:38,080
Speaker 1: and he's just one of many guys on Oka.

688
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 2: See who it's like.

689
00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:42,080
Speaker 1: Okay, now that we're into the postseason, let's you make

690
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:44,640
Speaker 1: the threes that you've made all year long. So he's

691
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:49,040
Speaker 1: in that group. Joe's in that group, Wallace and Wiggins

692
00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:52,680
Speaker 1: as well, all those guys who are incredible defenders. They

693
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:55,880
Speaker 1: need to show their worth on the offensive end as well.

694
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,640
Speaker 3: He's thirty one, right, Ray Flint's calling me out saying

695
00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 3: Caruso's thirty. It's thirty one. I went through their stats there,

696
00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:07,240
Speaker 3: all their birth years today. It's just because it feels

697
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:10,040
Speaker 3: like they're still a young team, right, Yeah, but they are.

698
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:12,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, happy birthday Alex s Cruso.

699
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:15,320
Speaker 3: Though, well it was his birthday a little while ago.

700
00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:19,520
Speaker 1: But okay, yeah, well happy birthday whenever it was. To

701
00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:22,279
Speaker 1: let's get to oh nice as a February guy. It

702
00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:27,640
Speaker 1: sounds like he's a pist. Sy'son no wonder, he's so chill. Anyways,

703
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:30,279
Speaker 1: let's get to predictions here, Tass, you said you think

704
00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:32,120
Speaker 1: maybe the Grizzlies can steal a game.

705
00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:33,560
Speaker 2: Is that it? You going to fiber?

706
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm going to Fiver. I do think this Memphis

707
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:41,680
Speaker 3: Grizzlies team has plenty of scrap, plenty of fight. Yeah,

708
00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:44,759
Speaker 3: I wonder it is kind of a short turnaround. As

709
00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:48,759
Speaker 3: you mentioned from Friday, night to Sunday. It's always the

710
00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:52,760
Speaker 3: rest versus Russ. Who's a benefit more. If the Grizzlies

711
00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:56,680
Speaker 3: are playing two big games in that first quarter, will

712
00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:59,759
Speaker 3: they be playing the best in Okay? See? In game one?

713
00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:03,600
Speaker 3: It's unlikely that they steal one in Okay. See. But yeah,

714
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:06,520
Speaker 3: I think they could get one at home. But that's

715
00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:08,120
Speaker 3: my limit. I say five.

716
00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:12,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, I could see the Grizzlies taking a game for sure.

717
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:13,000
Speaker 2: Obviously.

718
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:15,319
Speaker 1: The big concern in this one is that Memphis just

719
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:18,560
Speaker 1: doesn't have enough offense against an OKC defense that is

720
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:22,040
Speaker 1: just gonna feast on anybody that shows weakness out there.

721
00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:24,839
Speaker 1: They turn people over and go to the offense eve

722
00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:27,839
Speaker 1: ents so quickly. That's the way they really go on

723
00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:32,560
Speaker 1: their biggest runs. So I can see a world where

724
00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:36,200
Speaker 1: the Grizzlies have enough talent to elevate themselves to steal

725
00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:38,240
Speaker 1: in a game. But I'm going with OKAC in a sweep.

726
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:40,879
Speaker 1: Give me a sweep ski Okay? See in four, Ash,

727
00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 1: you want to make a prediction here, Yeah he does.

728
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:47,479
Speaker 5: Yeah I do. I'm gonna say the thunder in five.

729
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:52,960
Speaker 1: All right, sounds good. This does sound like a good series, though,

730
00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:55,080
Speaker 1: Like it's pretty like Memphis was the two seed for

731
00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:57,360
Speaker 1: quite some time, and they're playing against the thunder. You know,

732
00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:00,439
Speaker 1: the Grizzlies were the up and coming team not too

733
00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:04,200
Speaker 1: long ago. So for a first round series, pretty spicy

734
00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:08,200
Speaker 1: and in my estimation, a little spicier than our Eastern

735
00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:11,240
Speaker 1: Conference one to eight series. It's the Miami Heat advancing

736
00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:14,440
Speaker 1: to play the Cleveland Cavaliers, which would have had just

737
00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:19,320
Speaker 1: the utmost drama surrounding it in about like twenty.

738
00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:20,880
Speaker 3: Twelve.

739
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:25,399
Speaker 1: That would have been a huge series Calves versus Heat.

740
00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:31,200
Speaker 1: In this one, we're talking about a sixty win team

741
00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:35,040
Speaker 1: against the first ten seed to ever make the NBA playoffs. Task,

742
00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:36,480
Speaker 1: what are you watching in Calves.

743
00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:39,879
Speaker 3: Heat, Cave's heat? First time you've ever played in the postseason?

744
00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:44,840
Speaker 3: I mean interesting, ever strange?

745
00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:47,759
Speaker 2: Not even Craig Elow and Sherm Douglas.

746
00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:49,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, suremy wasn't cooking it back then.

747
00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:50,680
Speaker 2: Geez.

748
00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:56,120
Speaker 3: So I wonder, after watching this Heat come together, how

749
00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:59,360
Speaker 3: much they can hang with the Cleveland Cavaliers. I think

750
00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:03,879
Speaker 3: the Calves have so much guard strength. I think they'll

751
00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:05,880
Speaker 3: be fine there. They'll be fine with the bench. I

752
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:09,080
Speaker 3: wonder what the bigs are gonna look like, because khalil

753
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 3: where he can do some good things alongside Bamtdebio, but

754
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:15,759
Speaker 3: he can also get burned plenty, and I think the

755
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:21,640
Speaker 3: Calves Bigs could embarrass him, especially because the Calves bigs

756
00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:24,319
Speaker 3: are just they're continuously moving. I mean it feels like, yeah,

757
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:26,120
Speaker 3: they're just around the paint and just hanging out. But

758
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:28,919
Speaker 3: you see Jared Allen cutting from the corners. You see

759
00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:33,080
Speaker 3: Evan Mobley, Yeah, he'll take jumpers, but he's moving, he's screening,

760
00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:37,239
Speaker 3: he's always constantly going. So I feel like they'll be

761
00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:42,239
Speaker 3: outdone at Khlilware and bam Adebayo will be outdone by

762
00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:45,160
Speaker 3: those guys, and then the threes will start raining down

763
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:48,600
Speaker 3: from everybody. They do it so efficiently. So I'm just

764
00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:54,359
Speaker 3: watching if the Heat can play khalil Ware minutes or

765
00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:57,000
Speaker 3: what they're going to go to as their backup. I

766
00:37:57,080 --> 00:38:01,239
Speaker 3: mean it's probably Kyle Anderson, but the size of the

767
00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:04,040
Speaker 3: Cavs I think will hurt. This team just doesn't have enough.

768
00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:09,799
Speaker 1: Besides Bam Yeah, where was really good tonight. Didn't really

769
00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:12,279
Speaker 1: do much against Chicago, but I thought he was pretty

770
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:15,680
Speaker 1: impactful tonight. I think it's pretty interesting too that, like

771
00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:18,240
Speaker 1: you're saying in this series, both of these teams played

772
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:20,440
Speaker 1: double bigs for the most part, or at least they

773
00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 1: start double bigs, you know Bam and where Allen and Mobley.

774
00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:27,520
Speaker 1: And that's kind of a trend we're seeing across the

775
00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:30,920
Speaker 1: NBA during this postseason. Like obviously the MAVs almost played

776
00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:34,000
Speaker 1: three bigs. We've talked about the Rockets and the Warriors

777
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:37,000
Speaker 1: series they play two bigs, the Rockets do there are

778
00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:40,040
Speaker 1: It's becoming more and more common to see these double

779
00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:42,680
Speaker 1: big lineups, and certainly the Cavs are kind of like

780
00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:44,880
Speaker 1: the epitome of it right now with the way that

781
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:46,960
Speaker 1: these two have been together for a couple of seasons

782
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:49,680
Speaker 1: now and have figured out the synergy between it.

783
00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:50,279
Speaker 2: But you see the.

784
00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:54,000
Speaker 1: Talent and where when BAM is aggressive, they look like

785
00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:56,640
Speaker 1: a formidable front core too. So that's definitely gonna be

786
00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:59,840
Speaker 1: cool to see. And then that does leave the guards.

787
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,799
Speaker 1: I'm a little looking at Darius Garland in this one

788
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:06,720
Speaker 1: because I assume it's probably going to be Davion Mitchell

789
00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:09,960
Speaker 1: on Donovan Mitchell forty five versus forty five. D Mitch

790
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:12,920
Speaker 1: versus D Mitch would be my guess, which means that

791
00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:15,960
Speaker 1: Garland will have a little bit more favorable matchup. I

792
00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:20,480
Speaker 1: suppose Wiggins could go on to Mitchell and maybe we're

793
00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:27,400
Speaker 1: seeing Davion Mitchell on Garland, But I don't know. I

794
00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:29,680
Speaker 1: just feel like Garland has a chance to be the

795
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:32,719
Speaker 1: lead scoring guard for this team. I can see Eric

796
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:37,319
Speaker 1: spolsterras scheming away from Donovan Mitchell, which leads Garland with

797
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:40,440
Speaker 1: some opportunities. I talked about it today. He didn't have

798
00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:42,359
Speaker 1: a great run in the playoffs last year, but he's

799
00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:44,080
Speaker 1: been great this year. He's been one of the best

800
00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:46,880
Speaker 1: fourth quarter players in the league, and I'm watching to

801
00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:49,720
Speaker 1: see if he's going to be able to carry that over.

802
00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:50,560
Speaker 2: Into the playoffs.

803
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:54,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a good call. He has been some would

804
00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:58,960
Speaker 3: say their best player, and he has been extremely clutched

805
00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:02,760
Speaker 3: the clutch numbers. We've talked about our brunts and esque

806
00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:06,560
Speaker 3: and so, yeah, this is this is his time. This

807
00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:09,640
Speaker 3: is his time, along with Evan Mobley, to shine in

808
00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:13,040
Speaker 3: the postseason, because Mobley looked good last year. But yeah,

809
00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:16,360
Speaker 3: as you've mentioned, Garland was not great in last year's postseason.

810
00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:19,319
Speaker 2: How about X factors? What you got test?

811
00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:22,000
Speaker 3: Well, I'm going with the guy you just mentioned as

812
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:27,719
Speaker 3: a potential defender for the Heat Andrew Wiggins. I know,

813
00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:32,520
Speaker 3: I bad mouthed them when we recapped their game against

814
00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:35,160
Speaker 3: the Hawks tonight because it feels like he misses a lot.

815
00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:37,680
Speaker 3: But the good thing about him right now is Eric

816
00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:39,799
Speaker 3: Spolsure has got it into him that he's got to

817
00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:43,680
Speaker 3: be aggressive. He has to and maybe it's a little

818
00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:47,800
Speaker 3: bit overaggressive, and you wouldn't want him shooting as much

819
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:50,560
Speaker 3: as he does if it was a perfect world. But

820
00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:56,240
Speaker 3: you know, I say all that to freaking just forget

821
00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:59,560
Speaker 3: that three years ago he was awesome on both ends

822
00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:02,719
Speaker 3: for the Golden State Warriors. So I do think, you know,

823
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:07,759
Speaker 3: Bams may not have an incredible offensive series. I mean,

824
00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:10,520
Speaker 3: that's that's fair to say, and then Hero will do

825
00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:13,880
Speaker 3: his thing. But Wiggins, Like, we don't have to go

826
00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:17,719
Speaker 3: too far down the Miami Heat roster to think that

827
00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:21,560
Speaker 3: Wiggins is going to be important scoring the ball, is

828
00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:24,839
Speaker 3: going to continue to be aggressive for the entire series.

829
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:26,560
Speaker 3: It feels like, I mean, the Cavs just score so

830
00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:29,680
Speaker 3: many fricking points. Where's the Heat's offense going to come from?

831
00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:32,319
Speaker 3: So I think Andrew Wiggins, who is talented enough to

832
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:35,840
Speaker 3: score when he is aggressive, it is going to be important.

833
00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:38,800
Speaker 3: Just to add up to those to keep the score

834
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:41,080
Speaker 3: ticking against the Cavs. I mean, the Caves are just

835
00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:43,040
Speaker 3: going to score, and so who's going to do it

836
00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:47,440
Speaker 3: for the Heat, It's got to be Wiggins to me, because.

837
00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:48,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's got to be a part of it. He

838
00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:50,680
Speaker 1: was great tonight. I thought I thought he was really aggressive.

839
00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:53,240
Speaker 1: He's what I think he finished with twenty two. Probably

840
00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:56,200
Speaker 1: was setting the table as well. Yeah, he was really good.

841
00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:58,280
Speaker 1: If they get that Wiggins going to the hole hard.

842
00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:00,439
Speaker 1: He was playing that way against the ball as well,

843
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:03,799
Speaker 1: got a bunch of early layups against them. He he

844
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:05,560
Speaker 1: can be an advantage for them because there's not a

845
00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:08,920
Speaker 1: natural matchup. I don't think like he could outplay DeAndre

846
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:13,120
Speaker 1: Hunter or Strus or whoever's at the three for Cleveland.

847
00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:16,840
Speaker 1: Expector for me, I think is probably Eric Spolstra, Kenny Atkinson.

848
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:19,480
Speaker 1: Great coach, probably gonna win Coach of the Year. Eric

849
00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:24,280
Speaker 1: Spolstra has been doing playoff adjustments well for fifteen years,

850
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:26,920
Speaker 1: and I'll be interested to see the schemes he draws

851
00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:29,799
Speaker 1: up for trying to slow down the offense of the

852
00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:35,080
Speaker 1: Cleveland Cavaliers and justtaposing that with the Heat, trying to

853
00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:38,480
Speaker 1: generate offense because Miami doesn't shoot a lot of three pointers.

854
00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:40,880
Speaker 1: The Cavs shoot a ton of three pointers. And if

855
00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:43,200
Speaker 1: you're trying to flip the variants in a series where

856
00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:45,600
Speaker 1: you're the underdog, you gotta get up a bunch of

857
00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:49,800
Speaker 1: threes and you gotta outshoot Cleveland. So maybe that means

858
00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:53,680
Speaker 1: big Alec Birks games. Maybe that means Duncan Robinson having

859
00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:56,520
Speaker 1: a crazy quarter, and then Hero has to shoot the

860
00:42:56,520 --> 00:42:59,680
Speaker 1: ball as well as he shot it against Chicago and

861
00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:02,480
Speaker 1: in there win against Atlanta tonight five of ten from

862
00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:05,200
Speaker 1: the three point line. He's been on fire this season.

863
00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:08,640
Speaker 1: He's been great this week. So they need Hero to

864
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:10,560
Speaker 1: keep carrying the way he has and they need Eric

865
00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:13,960
Speaker 1: spolsterra to cook up some stuff because certainly Cleveland is

866
00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:17,279
Speaker 1: a big time, big time favorite in this one. So

867
00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:20,160
Speaker 1: take me to your predictions task. You're giving the Heat

868
00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:21,840
Speaker 1: some games here, you think this is gonna be an

869
00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:22,520
Speaker 1: interesting series?

870
00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:23,040
Speaker 2: What do you got?

871
00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:26,640
Speaker 3: Well, seeing this comment here in the stream team that

872
00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:32,279
Speaker 3: Eric Spolstra has never been swept from Asmoses Jones, I'm

873
00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:35,279
Speaker 3: buying into it and I'm doing a quick check that

874
00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:38,640
Speaker 3: he hasn't you know he did coach Lebron for a

875
00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:42,319
Speaker 3: long time. It's helpful. You're not gonna get swept when

876
00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:46,880
Speaker 3: you have Lebron James. And yeah, I'm confirming. I'm confirming

877
00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:49,880
Speaker 3: that that is true. Good call is most Jones, but

878
00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:52,759
Speaker 3: hold lot of sec hold out of sec. Twenty twenty one,

879
00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:57,160
Speaker 3: they got swept by the Bucks. I take it all back.

880
00:43:57,160 --> 00:44:03,960
Speaker 3: They're getting swept the Calves in a four a fourth spot. Uh.

881
00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:07,520
Speaker 3: And you know there's there's faith on on the Heat side.

882
00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:13,359
Speaker 3: But I do think the Calves are gonna continue to score.

883
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:16,319
Speaker 3: I mean, they they hit those threes at a great rate.

884
00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:18,200
Speaker 3: They take the fourth most threes in the NBA. They

885
00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:21,640
Speaker 3: have the second most makes in the NBA. Uh. And

886
00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:24,880
Speaker 3: I don't think the Heat can keep up with it.

887
00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:26,920
Speaker 3: I just I just don't think there's enough. I know

888
00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:30,680
Speaker 3: we've watched back to back Davy on Mitchell games, but

889
00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:33,680
Speaker 3: I think Bam will Yeah, we'll watch, We'll watch Bambi

890
00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:38,240
Speaker 3: muted a little bit by this Calves. Uh, double big

891
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:40,439
Speaker 3: and then where you getting the points? So I'm tyler

892
00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:43,120
Speaker 3: hero is gonna put up his But you know, besides

893
00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:44,840
Speaker 3: the Wiggins, I don't think there's gonna be enough points.

894
00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:48,320
Speaker 2: So I'm going to sweep sweep ski what do you

895
00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:49,520
Speaker 2: think ash.

896
00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:53,560
Speaker 4: Uh, Well, in the past, when they had Zimmy Butler,

897
00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:56,440
Speaker 4: you'd be like, they're gonna make some kind of a run,

898
00:44:56,480 --> 00:44:58,399
Speaker 4: They're gonna get a couple of games off of them,

899
00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:01,160
Speaker 4: and you might be scared just because because of who

900
00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:03,080
Speaker 4: the Calves are, or even in the past, if it

901
00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:08,720
Speaker 4: was the Celtics, you'd be even more afraid. But uh,

902
00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:10,880
Speaker 4: I think I think they get one. I think I

903
00:45:10,920 --> 00:45:13,640
Speaker 4: think Calves in five to two. I don't know, I

904
00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:14,480
Speaker 4: think they get one.

905
00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:15,560
Speaker 2: Calves in five.

906
00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:18,640
Speaker 1: I think that will be a pretty popular pick because

907
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:22,000
Speaker 1: you know, Cleveland is clearly the favorite in this one,

908
00:45:22,040 --> 00:45:25,759
Speaker 1: but everybody has respect for what Miami has done in

909
00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:28,440
Speaker 1: the past and for what Spolstra has done, never being swept,

910
00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:31,440
Speaker 1: except for of course, that horrible twenty twenty one season.

911
00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:33,799
Speaker 1: You know, I think it's because they played They must

912
00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:35,759
Speaker 1: have played the first round in a different month, which

913
00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:39,040
Speaker 1: threw them off timing wise, circadium rhythms.

914
00:45:39,480 --> 00:45:39,680
Speaker 4: Um.

915
00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:41,000
Speaker 2: I don't know.

916
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:42,920
Speaker 1: I feel like, just to follow the trend, maybe I'll

917
00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:46,960
Speaker 1: go with Calves in six heat played two crazy games,

918
00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:50,719
Speaker 1: just shoot the lights out and make it seem like

919
00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:54,040
Speaker 1: an interesting series for a little bit, but ultimately Calves

920
00:45:54,160 --> 00:45:54,600
Speaker 1: stomp it.

921
00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:55,719
Speaker 2: Give me Calves and six?

922
00:45:55,760 --> 00:45:56,080
Speaker 3: Why not?

923
00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:02,600
Speaker 2: All right, Calves and six. That one starts Sunday as well.

924
00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:07,680
Speaker 1: We've got actual playoff basketball starting in twelve hours, I believe,

925
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:08,680
Speaker 1: right one o'clock.

926
00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:09,839
Speaker 2: Is that the first tip offs?

927
00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:10,120
Speaker 3: Yeah?

928
00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:10,920
