Speaker 1: Well, well, well, the day has come and I've been waiting.

00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:11,360

00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:22,960
Speaker 1: for me and my fellow Lakers fans, and we're also

7
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,000
Speaker 1: gonna get into some of the latest news and notes

8
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:26,840
Speaker 1: from around the league. And we're gonna do that all

9
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:30,760
Speaker 1: with podcaster and Spurs analyst Tom Patrini on today's episode.

10
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:34,080
Speaker 1: I'm Miles Gray and I'm producer Bori in for Jack

11
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 1: and this is Miles. Miles got man, Man, we got

12
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:46,479
Speaker 1: the back, DoD Sorry, got it? Look a doit, hitch.

13
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 1: Ok there you go, be driving spinning Fat number eighteen

14
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 1: that's been secured the Suffix or NBA Champions over the

15
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:14,520
Speaker 1: double Ta. Okay, So Top Petrini, you're back after a

16
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 1: little over a year. It's great to have your reporter

17
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 1: for the Silver and Black Coffee Hour. And as you admitted,

18
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 1: I remember before he said, Wow, I'm so glad. I

19
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 1: didn't know if you guys going to have you back

20
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 1: because I was bullish on the Spurs. Last time we

21
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 1: were talking about the Southwest preview. I remember that, and

22
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 1: that's fine because I didn't remember that. Most of us

23
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 1: didn't remember that. But we all got to see Wemby

24
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 1: and that's all that matters because his performance has erased

25
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 1: any sort of predictions anyone may have had, because he

26
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 1: delivered on the promise of being an alien. So and

27
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 1: that's all we wanted to see.

28
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:47,960
Speaker 2: Well, I'm glad my takes are so forgettable, Miles, geez, but.

29
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 3: I'm kidding you know what.

30
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:58,120
Speaker 2: I I think that the Wemby outperformed any reasonable expectations

31
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 2: set for him and the and the expectation seems pretty unreasonable,

32
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 2: and he cleared those two.

33
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 1: You could have had some more blocks, Yeah, you know,

34
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: a few more.

35
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 2: He would have, except for guys kept doing this thing

36
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 2: where they would drive and they wouldn't even be able

37
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 2: to see him. They would just like know he was

38
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,840
Speaker 2: there right behind him somewhere, and they were like.

39
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:26,520
Speaker 3: Right, yes, that's a better idea.

40
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 1: That should be a data point is the fear, the

41
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,359
Speaker 1: fear of the alien abduction. Basically what we call that

42
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:33,920
Speaker 1: you don't want to be in an open field at

43
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:35,959
Speaker 1: night with a white light hovering above you because that

44
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:37,359
Speaker 1: could be a block coming your way.

45
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 3: Absolutely.

46
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 4: It's also like when you were playing in a driveway

47
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 4: against like an older sibling or like you're dad or

48
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 4: somebody and you know they're coming, but you're.

49
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,400
Speaker 1: Still gonna Yeah. Yeah, you feel the shadow come over

50
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 1: you in the street light because you're playing at night.

51
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 1: I've already played this game before, but anyway, it's great

52
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 1: to have you back. There's so much to talk about.

53
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 1: I mean, just with the two opening night game first up,

54
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 1: Celtics versus Knicks. I had the pleasure of being in

55
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:10,360
Speaker 1: New York City for about eleven hours yesterday for a

56
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,239
Speaker 1: work meeting. But the energy was I walked by Madison

57
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 1: Square Garden on my way to Penn Station. The energy

58
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 1: was great. There was like a lot of excited Knicks fans.

59
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 1: There were like a ton of did you see that

60
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 1: meme of the guy who wrote his wife a letter

61
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,040
Speaker 1: about watching the Knicks And he's like, dear wife, I

62
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,519
Speaker 1: know we have been together for twelve years, but I

63
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 1: must confess something to you. And then you're like, what's

64
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 1: going on? He's like, tonight is opening night for the Knicks.

65
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 1: I will cease to be a husband. Or a father

66
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 1: as I revel in the basketball opening night.

67
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 2: But anyway, I didn't see that, And I gotta say,

68
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 2: just like, as a man who's been in a relationship

69
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 2: for a while and as somebody who has spent you know,

70
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 2: I grew up in New York, I know what Knicks

71
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 2: culture is. If you spend any time as a Knicks

72
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 2: fan or a man in a relationship, you know how

73
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 2: dumb an idea that letter is. Yeah, yeah, right, like yeah,

74
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 2: don't is that any familiarity with either one?

75
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah? That was a straight Twitter play and you

76
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,600
Speaker 1: may have played yourself into a divorce or at least

77
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 1: being the doghouse. I don't know.

78
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 2: I saw tweets after, like I wonder how he felt

79
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:16,919
Speaker 2: like going into halftime, like should I call it? Like yeah, actually,

80
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 2: you know what, babe, I thought about it, and it's

81
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 2: like I'm a Giants fan, right okay? And Week one

82
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 2: this year like like they gave me that little glimmer

83
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:32,720
Speaker 2: of hope right out of date and then like immediately

84
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,920
Speaker 2: smashed it to pieces in Week one And I was like, babe,

85
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:38,559
Speaker 2: you know what, if you want to do apple picking

86
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 2: on Sundays, we can doday. There's a wonderful, clear, nice

87
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,159
Speaker 2: Sundays for the rest of fall. I don't give a

88
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:46,359
Speaker 2: damn Yeah.

89
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah Tom. As a Raiders fan, trust saow and.

90
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 4: It's always week one, I'm feeling like, hey, you know what,

91
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 4: this might be our year.

92
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 3: Yeah right, we talk ourselves into it.

93
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 1: So Celtics, it's ringing. As a Lakers fan, I don't

94
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,599
Speaker 1: like to see the number be better than the one

95
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,719
Speaker 1: on the back of my jerseys, okay, and that is

96
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 1: what has happened. And yes, Boston fans sip my tears

97
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,839
Speaker 1: because they are running down my face as I have

98
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 1: to admit this. But yeah, I was like, let's see

99
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 1: what happens, because I think going into this I was

100
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:24,120
Speaker 1: I think most people very excited about this new Knicks

101
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:27,160
Speaker 1: team and you know, the added pieces there. But at

102
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 1: the same time, I'm like, this Celtics team does not

103
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,840
Speaker 1: look weaker at any point going into the season. And

104
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:39,600
Speaker 1: my fears were confirmed rather aggressively from the get I

105
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,679
Speaker 1: mean it was close to maybe the first ten minutes,

106
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 1: I would say, and then slowly the three pointers did

107
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:50,799
Speaker 1: not stop, and I was absolutely I was texting Jabari.

108
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:54,200
Speaker 1: I was like, these guys are monsters and I don't know,

109
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,360
Speaker 1: how how do we stop them? Jack was saying, it's

110
00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,600
Speaker 1: the same thing as last year. It's the Celtics versus

111
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 1: the field, and that's what it looked like. How did

112
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 1: you how did you take that in? Tom?

113
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,600
Speaker 3: I mean shout out to Wick grosspec Man.

114
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:11,479
Speaker 2: I mean, if if I ever had just a ton

115
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 2: of money and it was like, oh we we you know,

116
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,160
Speaker 2: luxury tax, it'll be scary, Like I don't know, just like.

117
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:19,840
Speaker 3: Do it do it whatever?

118
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:20,159
Speaker 1: Dad?

119
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:21,280
Speaker 3: Yo?

120
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 2: Like yoloa the hell out of this roster construction. And

121
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:28,600
Speaker 2: that's why there's such a unit. That's why they're they're

122
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 2: just an absolute juggernaut. Like I mean sports guy here,

123
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:38,479
Speaker 2: Derek White, very you know, key addition, but like get

124
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 2: to see Al Horford get his ring right, a guy

125
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 2: who was like like a gigantic piece of that team

126
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 2: that was I think super underrated.

127
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 1: They are.

128
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 2: They are one of the best teams I have ever seen,

129
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:58,280
Speaker 2: one through eight, one through nine, like ever ever And yeah,

130
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,080
Speaker 2: I don't I don't know how you stop that. You

131
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 2: hope they miss. But they they.

132
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 3: Also played beautiful basketball.

133
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:06,599
Speaker 2: They moved the ball well, they play for each other,

134
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 2: they defend, Yeah, Tatum, I think statement game.

135
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:14,680
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, chip in the form of a ring on

136
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 1: your finger and chip on your shoulder as well. He

137
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 1: came into that one.

138
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 3: At the same time, he has nothing to prove to

139
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 3: anybody and also so much to prove.

140
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 1: I think, like like crazy, but it's like no, we

141
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 1: get it, no, we get it.

142
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 2: Well, he's coming off a ring, like genuinely, the case

143
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 2: against him for MVP is you've got an amazing team

144
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 2: one through nine, right right, And so then he goes

145
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 2: out and drops thirty I think he had thirty. He

146
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 2: had thirty two like two minutes into the second half, right,

147
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:50,400
Speaker 2: you know, right, like and yeah, he he's fantastic. The

148
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 2: Celtics in general are fantastic. And somebody's gonna have to

149
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 2: pay the piper at some point, yeah, like yeah, just

150
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,680
Speaker 2: with money, but like you know right now, that's how

151
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 2: stuff gets done.

152
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 1: So let's be present, let's be president, because right.

153
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 2: Now we're we're witnessing a machine, a basketball in the machine.

154
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:10,800
Speaker 1: To watch, Even for me as a hater, I'm like

155
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 1: I have to sit there again with tears streaming down

156
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 1: my face because I'm like this is unsd I don't

157
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 1: know how you how do you compete with this? Twenty

158
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:23,000
Speaker 1: nine from sixty one to three point attempts twenty nine three.

159
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:25,280
Speaker 1: But are they like eighteen in the first half?

160
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 2: None of those are chucking like they generate so many

161
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 2: good shots. Yes, as an offense, and it's like, okay,

162
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,199
Speaker 2: like pretty much every team that goes to face them

163
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 2: this season is going to go on to the floor

164
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 2: and feel like, oh, we're not the better team.

165
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:42,600
Speaker 4: I was talking to Miles about this before the show,

166
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:44,840
Speaker 4: and the reality is, and let me say officially, I

167
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,079
Speaker 4: am the biggest hater. I hate the way that they walk,

168
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 4: I hate the way that they talk, I hate the

169
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 4: way that they dress. And I will acknowledge everything you

170
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:55,960
Speaker 4: said is one hundred percent accurate. They are going to

171
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,640
Speaker 4: be the best team on the floor regardless. If ever

172
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:01,439
Speaker 4: there were a time where a team would come off

173
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 4: sluggish or could you know, you could you could excuse it,

174
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 4: you know, like no pusingis you know they had the

175
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 4: long summer.

176
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 1: No, they came out.

177
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 4: And this is the part that I was, you know,

178
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 4: discussed with Mouse just ahead of the show, is they

179
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:17,080
Speaker 4: have embraced like the city of Boston's attitude and that

180
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 4: should be very scary to the rest of us.

181
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 1: Honestly, that's terrible.

182
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:23,760
Speaker 2: I went to school up there, I lived there for

183
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:28,199
Speaker 2: five years, and Boston's a lovely place. Lovely people in Boston,

184
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,320
Speaker 2: a lot of them, but it is very much a

185
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 2: like like and dude, we got to talk about Missoula. Man,

186
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 2: that guy somebody did the like, uh true, detective, I

187
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,840
Speaker 2: just want you to keep saying odd stuff like he

188
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:49,160
Speaker 2: says the weirdest stuff and it's amazing, like there, you know,

189
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 2: he was asked like is there pressure, like you know,

190
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 2: do you guys feel feel pressure? And he was like,

191
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 2: we're all going to be dead soon and none of

192
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 2: you are invited into my funeral.

193
00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:03,079
Speaker 1: To my funeral. That's what do you say to that? Yeah, transcendence, Yeah,

194
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 1: you talked about it.

195
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 2: He talking about us meniscus and the surgery being fun.

196
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:13,880
Speaker 1: He's an animal. He's an animal, like he.

197
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 2: Might be the guy who was wearing the saw mask,

198
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:18,199
Speaker 2: like right, that's who.

199
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:19,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's he's a.

200
00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,479
Speaker 2: Little unhinged, and this whole team is a little unhinged,

201
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 2: and like there there always is sort of a Boston

202
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:28,360
Speaker 2: against the world mentality and that that mass whole vibe.

203
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,560
Speaker 2: And now they can talk all their talk, right because

204
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 2: they got that.

205
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 3: Ring with all of those.

206
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 2: I always love seeing that when they get the ring

207
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 2: and it's like, oh, this is eighteen diamonds here because

208
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:40,920
Speaker 2: it's more than the Lakers, right, yeah, and that kind

209
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 2: of stuff.

210
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 1: What do you mean right, you're just rubbing that in

211
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:48,840
Speaker 1: Tom right, Well you've got.

212
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 3: That first you brought. I actually hadn't thought of it.

213
00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:54,720
Speaker 1: Part of me almost fired off.

214
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:56,760
Speaker 4: You're seventeen to six, but I know he probably would

215
00:10:56,760 --> 00:11:00,280
Speaker 4: have come back with twenty seven to seven because yeah, yeah, sport,

216
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 4: our baseball teams are square enough.

217
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 1: Bring bro right here Lake Dodgers versus Yankees fans. That's

218
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:10,800
Speaker 1: again this this is a great time to be a

219
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:11,360
Speaker 1: sports fan.

220
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 3: Oh man, it's so much fun.

221
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:16,720
Speaker 1: So is there do we see any any version of

222
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 1: reality and the multi verse of madness where this team

223
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:22,200
Speaker 1: is not straight to the finals again? Because I'm I'm like,

224
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 1: that has to be one of the worst bets in

225
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 1: sports right now. It's like betting on the Celtics to win.

226
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 1: It's like, I don't know, man, what do you want

227
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:28,560
Speaker 1: your money back?

228
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 2: They're just so deep, so deep, there's so deep. There's

229
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:37,120
Speaker 2: so deep that like I wouldn't I wouldn't touch that. Yes, yeah,

230
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:40,080
Speaker 2: think about this. Both of our teams could use a

231
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 2: Lonnie Walker.

232
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 4: They made it the day before the season, were like, hey,

233
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:47,360
Speaker 4: you know what, thanks, thanks for your services. Like they're

234
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:51,959
Speaker 4: they're waving actual rotation contributed because they're that deep in.

235
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 3: That strong Lottie's.

236
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:55,600
Speaker 2: Lottie is one of my absolute favorite guys that I've

237
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 2: gotten to know in covering the Spurs. And you know,

238
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 2: like also awesome story, awesome dude, and really rooting for

239
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:05,680
Speaker 2: him to find a place where you can contribute because

240
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 2: like he's and and he was he was what an

241
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:11,320
Speaker 2: interesting career, right, You play for Greg Pavovich, you play

242
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 2: with the Lakers and Lebron yea and and like and

243
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:19,360
Speaker 2: you're you're a microwave score you got you got the

244
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 2: size and length to be like disruptive on the wing

245
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,200
Speaker 2: when you're locked in and can't find a spot in

246
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:25,680
Speaker 2: the league.

247
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:26,560
Speaker 3: Is kind of crazy.

248
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, So wishing the best for Lonnie Walker. But yeah,

249
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:33,439
Speaker 2: I mean it's it's an embarrassment of riches for the Celtics.

250
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 2: Like I said, they're gonna have to pay for it,

251
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 2: but like I'm not gonna have to pay for it.

252
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,720
Speaker 3: I just get to watch, you know, It's not my

253
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:41,319
Speaker 3: money rightly.

254
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 1: And what of the Knicks now? And I get it

255
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 1: my expectations. I think we're through the roof. Also because

256
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,439
Speaker 1: like I'll entertain any possibility. We're like, yeah, maybe maybe

257
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 1: the Celtics lose on Ring Night and then the Knicks

258
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:54,600
Speaker 1: can do it. Also taking out the fact that you

259
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 1: know there they still need time to gel. This is

260
00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 1: not like the finished product coming at you day one one,

261
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 1: game one. But what were you seeing? What I was looking?

262
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 1: First of all, I was really it was really nice

263
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 1: see Miles McBride like, really kind of step up. I

264
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 1: was like, oh no, okay, sir, not only do you

265
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:10,320
Speaker 1: have a fantastic name, but what do you have? Like

266
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,319
Speaker 1: twenty two points? I think he was like the I

267
00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 1: think tied for points with Jalen Brunson. He was keeping

268
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 1: him in it for a while. Yeah, yeah, he really was.

269
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 1: And I was like, oh man, this is like, okay,

270
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,320
Speaker 1: the pieces are there, but are you Do you feel

271
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,360
Speaker 1: any less or more excited after that? Obviously given the

272
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 1: fact that this was the very first game and this

273
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:29,959
Speaker 1: is they're getting used to this new team, how'd you

274
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 1: come away with that? Thinking about the Knicks, I've.

275
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:37,000
Speaker 2: Got kind of more questions about the Knicks, Uh, not

276
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,720
Speaker 2: really necessarily after that first game, but really after the

277
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 2: trade to bring Karl Anthony Towns in, right, because the

278
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:52,520
Speaker 2: reason the Knicks were fun last year was because it

279
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 2: looked like just five dudes and Tim's like stomping on

280
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:57,280
Speaker 2: whoever was in their way.

281
00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah.

282
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:01,840
Speaker 2: Defensively, it was like a rock fight. Yeah, and they

283
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:06,280
Speaker 2: were you know, very physical, very aggressive in that way.

284
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:11,320
Speaker 2: And it's you know, starting on defense, right, classic Tips

285
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:16,480
Speaker 2: coach team. And now you have Karl Anthony Towns, who,

286
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 2: you know, one of the great big men shooters of

287
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:23,840
Speaker 2: all time, surely is going to provide them a boost

288
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 2: in that area. But now, like, especially as the center

289
00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 2: in a defensive scheme, like, you know, he did not

290
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 2: look great and drop coverage last night. They were having

291
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 2: a tough time when when he was getting put in actions.

292
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 2: And granted it's the first game and you're going against

293
00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 2: the absolute gauntlet that is the Celtics roster. Yeah, but

294
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:51,320
Speaker 2: I am interested to see how the grittiest team of

295
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,560
Speaker 2: last year adapts to having a guy who's viewed as

296
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 2: like one of the softer like.

297
00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 1: Stars in the NBA.

298
00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 2: Right, right, And he looked like he belongs in a

299
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,560
Speaker 2: Knicks uniform, so it looks like he's been wearing that

300
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 2: for a while for some reason.

301
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 1: And he's a man being a Knicks fan too.

302
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 2: Yeah right, Yeah, Like there's there's a lot of stuff

303
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:11,880
Speaker 2: here where it's like this should be good and this

304
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 2: should be fun and this should work better. But also

305
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 2: like I'm curious to see how how it all plays out,

306
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:22,120
Speaker 2: and like they sort of yoled a little bit trying

307
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:24,840
Speaker 2: to get that power of friendship next team together and

308
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 2: then like, you know, make this move right. And obviously

309
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:32,480
Speaker 2: Dante DiVincenzo is not the like center of that, but

310
00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 2: like what was a part of that? And like, you know,

311
00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:38,960
Speaker 2: I think they're gonna miss Hartenstein a lot more than

312
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 2: people expect in terms of shorten that metal. So yeah,

313
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:45,760
Speaker 2: I think I think I have more questions than answers

314
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 2: about the Knicks, but like I hope they answer those

315
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:50,760
Speaker 2: questions in a distinctly New York way.

316
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:51,800
Speaker 1: Yeah.

317
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 4: I think that last you know, that last beat like

318
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 4: just nails it on the head. They missed the dirty

319
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 4: work guy. They missed the guy who's gonna get in

320
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:00,320
Speaker 4: there and rough it up. And I'm not even I'm

321
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 4: not even gonna take this as an opportunity to you know,

322
00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:04,080
Speaker 4: pile on cat, you know, Bodega cat.

323
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 1: He is what he is at this stage.

324
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 4: Like you, I was intrigued by, you know, you know,

325
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 4: by that move specifically because it's like, okay, well what's

326
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 4: round what's round two? With Tim's gonna look like for him?

327
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:16,840
Speaker 4: You know, it wasn't necessarily the greatest fit, and I

328
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 4: think I mentioned this on last week's episode. It wasn't

329
00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:20,680
Speaker 4: necessarily the greatest fit when he was young, but maybe

330
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 4: at this stage in his career could be something different.

331
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 4: But to that original point, you know, a guy is

332
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 4: gonna be what he is, and they're probably going to

333
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 4: need to address that and need to get you know,

334
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:31,040
Speaker 4: a dirty work big or two.

335
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, oh man and Bridges, Poor poor macaude, the

336
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:43,120
Speaker 1: shooting macau McCaw. That was really Chris. What wasn't he

337
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 1: like one of the best corner three point shooter last

338
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,600
Speaker 1: season or something like that or a couple of years ago.

339
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 2: You don't normally see jump shots get rebuilt when they work. Well, yeah,

340
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:56,479
Speaker 2: this is confusing.

341
00:16:57,080 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm ignorant as to the inner workings of

342
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 1: the professional basketball player's mind, but statistically, on paper, you

343
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:08,200
Speaker 1: are looking at a player like him, You're like, yeah,

344
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:11,440
Speaker 1: I'm having that. This is a great weapon to add.

345
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,919
Speaker 1: And then it's like, hold on, this isn't broke, and

346
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:19,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonna try and fix it. I don't understand what

347
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 1: it's like.

348
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:25,400
Speaker 2: A batting stance, Like, you know, you could refine everybody's

349
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:30,359
Speaker 2: batting stance to be the most like efficient and you know,

350
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 2: mathematically perfect. You can take out the hitch and you

351
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:36,879
Speaker 2: can what it. But if if if you got something

352
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 2: that you're comfortable with and you're hitting the ball, just

353
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:39,239
Speaker 2: do that.

354
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly exactly were people coming at Andris Galaraga for

355
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:47,159
Speaker 1: being so open, you know what I mean? I remember

356
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,679
Speaker 1: that bat like this is he looking off to the side.

357
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:53,639
Speaker 2: But the weirdest batting stance you can think of. I'm

358
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 2: I'm a Yankee fan, but uclus always jumps to mind.

359
00:17:56,800 --> 00:18:00,440
Speaker 1: Yo, Yeah the way the bat was Yeah, yeah, yeah,

360
00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,399
Speaker 1: that was just very But again, that's like one of

361
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:06,560
Speaker 1: those things where each person knows their body and that's

362
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:08,920
Speaker 1: just how they've played the game their whole life, and

363
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,680
Speaker 1: that's how they've worked it out to be proficient at

364
00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:12,600
Speaker 1: a professional level.

365
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:16,120
Speaker 2: There's always at the why some like fifty year old

366
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:18,639
Speaker 2: man whose shot looks like like it comes all the

367
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:21,159
Speaker 2: way back here, right yep, and you're like, there's no

368
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 2: there's no way.

369
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:26,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, and somebody way, but you're yeah. It's like again,

370
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:31,119
Speaker 1: I understand, like with sprinters or like racing where you're

371
00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 1: you're you have to shave off milliseconds and that's like

372
00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:38,359
Speaker 1: the difference between gold and silver or whatever. But again

373
00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:40,760
Speaker 1: I am ignorant. I do not understand. It was just

374
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,840
Speaker 1: very difficult to watch considering how like he was really

375
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:47,120
Speaker 1: struggling with his shooting, and it wasn't Yeah, it wasn't

376
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 1: easy on the eyes. It was not easy on the eyes.

377
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,919
Speaker 1: You shot twenty eight percent a little over twenty eight percent,

378
00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 1: yea from three last night. That's tough.

379
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:54,680
Speaker 3: That's tough.

380
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 1: All right, Well, let's take a quick break and we'll

381
00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 1: come back to talk about the other side of the coin,

382
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:02,679
Speaker 1: the team with no ring and the team that nearly

383
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:06,840
Speaker 1: got close to losing to the Celtics. Uh. And that's

384
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 1: the Lakers and the Timberwolves. And we'll do that right

385
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:23,880
Speaker 1: after this. And we're back, and I mean that literally, Jabbari.

386
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 1: We're back, okay, for the for the.

387
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 4: For the non Lakers fans, out there. Let us have

388
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:37,400
Speaker 4: this one game to be happy about. Can we have this?

389
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:42,359
Speaker 1: We want an opening night game that's a chip And

390
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:44,440
Speaker 1: I know the bar is low, and you say that's

391
00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 1: pathetic from a team who's trying to compete with the Celtics,

392
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 1: But look, I saw the Celtics. We're not getting close

393
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:51,400
Speaker 1: to that right now. I can't. I'm let me live

394
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:55,080
Speaker 1: in my little bubble sphere right now where that was

395
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:58,440
Speaker 1: a great up. But it was a really fantastic night.

396
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:03,879
Speaker 1: A d looked fantastic. What did he put up against Gobert?

397
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 1: Like thirty six three blocks? Bro woke up looking for

398
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:13,760
Speaker 1: the brunckn I know, got that horn on him, that

399
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:18,600
Speaker 1: kama see hey you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah,

400
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:20,679
Speaker 1: I mean like it was it? I mean I again,

401
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:24,320
Speaker 1: I was. This is my question to start off, because

402
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 1: we did look really good. We looked different. Is the

403
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:31,240
Speaker 1: bar just so low because of Darvin Ham's tenure or

404
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 1: is JJ by just merely being more flexible, you know

405
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:39,439
Speaker 1: with the plays and the lineups? That was that merely?

406
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,160
Speaker 1: It would like if because I feel like the whole

407
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:43,120
Speaker 1: time we're like I wish Darvin, like, can you call

408
00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:44,960
Speaker 1: a time out? Because if you don't this run is

409
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:46,919
Speaker 1: going to you have to stop the bleeding. And he's like,

410
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,920
Speaker 1: you're gonna let them work it out again again, where

411
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:54,720
Speaker 1: it's like I again, tears streamed down my face for

412
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 1: two games last night. One is because I could not

413
00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,240
Speaker 1: believe how good the Celtics were. The second was because

414
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 1: JJ Read called a time out when the Timberwolves were

415
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 1: on a run that was about to just upside down

416
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:07,720
Speaker 1: our lead, and I was like, I had not seen

417
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 1: anything like that in a few years, and I was like,

418
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:12,160
Speaker 1: this is this real?

419
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:15,200
Speaker 4: He was even sharing coherent messages in the time out.

420
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, man, like.

421
00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 1: People looked at the board real quick.

422
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:22,399
Speaker 4: Tom, We'll come to you for this. But I just

423
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,199
Speaker 4: have to say this because it's in relation to that.

424
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:28,399
Speaker 4: For two years, I was a Darvin Ham apologist. I

425
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:31,680
Speaker 4: wanted to believe I did, and you know, like I'm

426
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,760
Speaker 4: always good. I'm never happy, like when someone lose their gig,

427
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,040
Speaker 4: man like so like when he got fired. While yes

428
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:38,880
Speaker 4: it was time for them to move on, I didn't.

429
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:42,080
Speaker 4: I wasn't celebrating that. But after I saw last night's game,

430
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,160
Speaker 4: and that was all just to set this up. After

431
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:46,240
Speaker 4: I saw last night's game, I said, you know what,

432
00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 4: I'm glad your butts out of here, because quite frankly,

433
00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:52,600
Speaker 4: in one night they looked more in line and more

434
00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:56,400
Speaker 4: cohesive and more bought in than they ever looked at

435
00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,520
Speaker 4: any point last season. And you know what, maybe it's

436
00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 4: simply the right maybe it's the right fit at the

437
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:02,440
Speaker 4: right time.

438
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:06,120
Speaker 1: But honeymoon could be honeymooney. But I'm a lot more

439
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:09,159
Speaker 1: optimistic than I was saying last year. Yeah, because I

440
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:12,440
Speaker 1: look and I'm not quite ready to sign my JJ

441
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:15,560
Speaker 1: I'm sorry card and send that in yet, but because

442
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:18,439
Speaker 1: I'm not not gonna lie. I was like, I was

443
00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 1: looking kind of funny at this this hiring. But this

444
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:27,840
Speaker 1: guy is such a you know, basketball freak that I

445
00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:31,240
Speaker 1: do love that part about his coaching. And for me,

446
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,680
Speaker 1: I love seeing my fellow Black and these brother Rui

447
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:39,919
Speaker 1: Hachimura out there looking like renewed in a way that

448
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,959
Speaker 1: we only saw in flashes. And I just feel like

449
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:46,240
Speaker 1: everybody looked kind of they're like they're finding like, yeah, man,

450
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,640
Speaker 1: he just needed some instruction, you know what I mean,

451
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 1: Like we just needed to know what time it was,

452
00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 1: because I remember really saiding like I think it was

453
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:56,280
Speaker 1: like maybe media day or one of the like one

454
00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:58,640
Speaker 1: of the he had a moment right in the off

455
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 1: season where he was like, yeah, the thirty to forty

456
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,560
Speaker 1: games under him, we were just kind of like doing whatever,

457
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,679
Speaker 1: and and it looked like that. And the fact that

458
00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,199
Speaker 1: like it was articulated, I'm like, oh, well, all it

459
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:11,600
Speaker 1: takes is a bit of structure, and now we have

460
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,760
Speaker 1: something that looks a lot different. Jackson Hayes looked fantastic.

461
00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 1: Dalton connect in a gang in a gang being being banged. Bang.

462
00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:23,000
Speaker 1: What that was? I don't know. Again, my hopes are high,

463
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 1: by my eyeballs are just streaming tears. But yeah, I

464
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 1: really loved just kind of I'm I'm reserving it. I'm

465
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:33,960
Speaker 1: not gonna go I'm not gonna go over, but we're back. Okay, Okay,

466
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:35,159
Speaker 1: hang number eighteen up.

467
00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:38,119
Speaker 2: I think you are right to be optimistic. Yes, I

468
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 2: saw last night because, like you said, the togetherness of

469
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:45,000
Speaker 2: the team, the direction of the team, it felt, uh

470
00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:47,960
Speaker 2: you know, felt coherent and cohesive in a way that

471
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 2: Lakers games haven't felt in a while.

472
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:50,600
Speaker 1: Yeah.

473
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:54,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, the stop the bleeding time out, like you said, Yeah,

474
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 2: that's fairly basic coaching stuff.

475
00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,399
Speaker 3: No d something on the board, and guys like that

476
00:23:59,520 --> 00:23:59,920
Speaker 3: fairly bag.

477
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,440
Speaker 1: You know. That's like, this is the bar that I'm like,

478
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:04,560
Speaker 1: that's where I felt like, am I just I have

479
00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 1: no perspective anymore because of what happened last season or

480
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:08,160
Speaker 1: last year.

481
00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,800
Speaker 2: But so so, I think there were a couple of

482
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:12,920
Speaker 2: things that jumped out to me watching that game and

483
00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:18,680
Speaker 2: after it as well, about Reddick, who's really not far

484
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:21,439
Speaker 2: at all from his playing days, Like it's really not

485
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 2: long ago that he was on those floors competing against

486
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:27,800
Speaker 2: a lot of these guys. Yeah, and there was a

487
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:33,160
Speaker 2: moment in this game where and Edwards was near him

488
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:35,879
Speaker 2: and J. J. Redick was like talking smack to him

489
00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:37,879
Speaker 2: a little bit. I think it was about like like

490
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:40,160
Speaker 2: he was like it was it was late in the game,

491
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 2: and he was like he carried and and A gets

492
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:44,440
Speaker 2: back at him and he's like, yeah, okay, yeah, but

493
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:45,640
Speaker 2: he carried.

494
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:47,360
Speaker 3: And like it was just like that.

495
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,720
Speaker 2: But like, yeah, you don't really see coaches like smack

496
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:53,479
Speaker 2: talk the opposing teams star player who's also like one

497
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,560
Speaker 2: of the most prolific smack buckers in the league, a

498
00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:58,840
Speaker 2: guy who like takes things personal and puts a chip

499
00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 2: on his shoulder. But then I was I was watching

500
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 2: ants after that, and he was like he was playing

501
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:05,440
Speaker 2: a little angrier.

502
00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 1: But not necessarily better a little bit.

503
00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was it was a little like, oh, I'm

504
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 2: gonna show you a little bit. And then that didn't

505
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,080
Speaker 2: work and he had to adjust because he started drawing

506
00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:17,680
Speaker 2: doubles and then he was passing out of it, and

507
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:20,440
Speaker 2: then that was working. But like he kind of got

508
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:23,280
Speaker 2: in the head I think of one of the like

509
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:28,480
Speaker 2: true like rising star future faces, current faces of the league,

510
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:30,239
Speaker 2: and and that was really cool to see. And then

511
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:34,560
Speaker 2: after the game he had a comment about like, you know,

512
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 2: I don't know why we're playing with like fresh balls

513
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 2: that aren't worn in.

514
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, because he's like, can we tell the league I'm

515
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:42,320
Speaker 1: fine with worn in basketballs. Yeah.

516
00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, they feel weird in your hand.

517
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:46,600
Speaker 2: And I didn't realize until like I got one later

518
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:48,080
Speaker 2: in the game because it bounced to me and it

519
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:51,080
Speaker 2: was like, you know, it's just like I think that

520
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:55,960
Speaker 2: that locker room definitely could use the perspective and the

521
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 2: the all the accumulated knowledge of somebody who was in

522
00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:03,119
Speaker 2: the league very recently right understands how the modern game

523
00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:06,560
Speaker 2: of basketball has played, and like you can just tell

524
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:10,960
Speaker 2: that he's been one of the smarter basketball people in

525
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 2: most most of the teams that he's been at, and like,

526
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:17,919
Speaker 2: you know, just just by virtue of how much of

527
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:21,680
Speaker 2: a basketball freak he is. Yeah, yeah, yeah, And it's

528
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:24,280
Speaker 2: kind of like you know what Wemby said, where like

529
00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:26,280
Speaker 2: kind of like I used to respect some of these people,

530
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:27,760
Speaker 2: but now I see the kind of work they put in,

531
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 2: and I think it's bs. Yeah, Like like I can

532
00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:33,479
Speaker 2: imagine him sitting on the end of the bench like

533
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:37,280
Speaker 2: watching you know, Van Gundi or whoever, like not call

534
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:40,399
Speaker 2: a timeout and be like is he doing Yeah, like

535
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:46,120
Speaker 2: fifteen plus years of that, yeah, build dub into Like Okay,

536
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:47,920
Speaker 2: if I ever was in charge, how would I do it?

537
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 1: Would yeah? Yeah yeah, And he's been thinking about that. Yeah.

538
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 1: Funny enough, when he was talking to aunt, I was

539
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:54,360
Speaker 1: yelling at the TV like.

540
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:58,159
Speaker 2: Hey, hey, hey, hey, that's very much.

541
00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,000
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, you're right.

542
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 2: But but it seems like he did it in just

543
00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:05,360
Speaker 2: the right way, right, it seemed to work out.

544
00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 1: He knew it was. It was just so matter of fact.

545
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,440
Speaker 1: He's like, yeah, okay, whatever you carried, and he's right,

546
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,359
Speaker 1: he was energy, yeah, because if he was matching that,

547
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,000
Speaker 1: then he would have been like, yeah, yeah, okay, but

548
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:19,240
Speaker 1: he's like, no, I logically just I'm ending the conversation.

549
00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:22,720
Speaker 1: Carry carry yeah, and that's it and whatever you can say,

550
00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:24,360
Speaker 1: that's fine, but anyway.

551
00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:27,359
Speaker 2: I'll show you carry bro and got he got a

552
00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:30,120
Speaker 2: little bit like, you know, a little bit io ball.

553
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 3: So yeah, no, it was.

554
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,880
Speaker 1: Interesting, Jabari. What about you? I mean we've talked, we

555
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:39,399
Speaker 1: texted throughout, We've shared many thoughts. Where do where do

556
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 1: you where you shaken out after this? And are we also?

557
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:45,280
Speaker 1: Are you also kind of looking at the Wolves a

558
00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 1: little some kind of way too, because let's not fully

559
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:49,200
Speaker 1: even to fully be here and be like we have

560
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 1: need to look did that that was the best defense

561
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:53,120
Speaker 1: in the league? And look at us?

562
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:57,680
Speaker 4: That's exactly where I'm at with it. I'm trying to

563
00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:02,960
Speaker 4: temper my you know, superants, not my exuberant but no, look,

564
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 4: the Lakers look. The Lakers look better than I anticipated,

565
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 4: and the and the Wolves look worse than I anticipated.

566
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,040
Speaker 4: But I think there's something to that. The Wolves, you know,

567
00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:11,840
Speaker 4: we're missing it with the Knicks. The Wolves just made

568
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:15,040
Speaker 4: a big trade right before the season. It's going to

569
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 4: take them some time to adjust. It did not look

570
00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:20,600
Speaker 4: like they had the same connectivity, you know, defensively, and

571
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:23,200
Speaker 4: that's understandable. You know, they got new personnel in there

572
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,440
Speaker 4: and probably going to take some time if they're able

573
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:28,240
Speaker 4: to find that. But I'm going to be honest with you,

574
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:32,720
Speaker 4: and you know last week we were talking about proved players. Yeah,

575
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,720
Speaker 4: when I say this, take it with a grain of salt,

576
00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:38,320
Speaker 4: but Ant is a proved player to me this season.

577
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:41,200
Speaker 4: And the reason is is because we were wondering are

578
00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:42,800
Speaker 4: they going to go all in with him or is

579
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:45,240
Speaker 4: it going to be his team? Well, they have definitively

580
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 4: said this is your team moving forward. I'm not going

581
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:49,840
Speaker 4: to be one of those people that says, like, oh,

582
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:52,760
Speaker 4: he has to deal. He made it so far last year,

583
00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:55,200
Speaker 4: so he has to make What I'm looking for is

584
00:28:55,680 --> 00:29:01,080
Speaker 4: more maturity, more leadership along the way, heightened level of

585
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:03,760
Speaker 4: understanding how to interact with the guys to get them

586
00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:05,480
Speaker 4: to you know, to put them in the best you know,

587
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 4: you know, the best places in your positions to win.

588
00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:11,240
Speaker 1: Now, obviously coaching, you know that coaching goes into that.

589
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,480
Speaker 4: But in my estimation, if you're going to be the

590
00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 4: guy on a team, especially in the NBA, and it's

591
00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:17,720
Speaker 4: not there's nothing to do with like today, It's always

592
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,280
Speaker 4: been a case you have to have that sort of influence.

593
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 1: So that's kind of what I'm looking for this year.

594
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw a little bit of it from Ant

595
00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:27,280
Speaker 2: in this game, where you know, on the bench and

596
00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,880
Speaker 2: on the floor, you know, trying to fire the guys

597
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:34,160
Speaker 2: up a little bit, especially especially in those places where

598
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:39,120
Speaker 2: the Lakers were building and extending the lead when there

599
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:42,960
Speaker 2: were those lapses. He was the clapping his hands angrily,

600
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:47,640
Speaker 2: come on, man like type of guy. And like he

601
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 2: definitely has the skill and the the hutspa to to

602
00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 2: be like doing that as a young player in this league,

603
00:29:56,360 --> 00:30:00,920
Speaker 2: but that type of leadership is sometimesfficult for other people

604
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:04,800
Speaker 2: to take, right. Yeah, and then I've sort of got

605
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:09,520
Speaker 2: a question here largely do we think that Rudy Gobert

606
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,720
Speaker 2: wins another Defensive Player of the Year award in his

607
00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:20,880
Speaker 2: career given his his countryman's descendants and voter fatigue and

608
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:24,360
Speaker 2: people kind of seeing how he gets exploited all the time.

609
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:29,560
Speaker 1: Right especially I mean it's like Ad just has his number, yeah,

610
00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:32,720
Speaker 1: which is like dominates this dude. Yeah, what was that

611
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:35,480
Speaker 1: stat you posted like the last five games or something.

612
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 1: He's always put up at least like a thirty piece

613
00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:38,280
Speaker 1: on like.

614
00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:42,000
Speaker 4: Last five games are in order, thirty eight on sixty

615
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 4: three percent true shooting, thirty eight on sixty five percent

616
00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:47,680
Speaker 4: true shooting, thirty one on sixty five, thirty three on

617
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,600
Speaker 4: seventy seven, and in thirty six last night on sixty

618
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 4: one percent trew shooting. Yeah, catching things in the vacuum,

619
00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:56,320
Speaker 4: you know, like folks will get in trouble sometimes. So

620
00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:58,280
Speaker 4: I'm not going to say, like, oh, simply because Anthony

621
00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 4: Davis does tour him yeah's you know he's not.

622
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:03,600
Speaker 1: But I will say there is no chance in hell

623
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:04,840
Speaker 1: he's ever winning another one.

624
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:08,480
Speaker 4: And it's specifically because it's because Wemben Yama exists. It's

625
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:11,440
Speaker 4: specifically because if they give anybody a sympathy one down

626
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 4: the line, it's gonna be Anthony Davis because he should

627
00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:16,000
Speaker 4: have won one by now to begin with. But that's

628
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:16,920
Speaker 4: neither here nor there.

629
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:20,880
Speaker 1: But it's with that Academy Awards. Yeah, I mean where

630
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:24,520
Speaker 1: he might get his Revenant, he might get that, but

631
00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:25,160
Speaker 1: you know.

632
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 2: Can you can you guys believe that Defensive Player of

633
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:32,120
Speaker 2: the Year never went to Timmy Like isn't that like

634
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:37,240
Speaker 2: a well, yeah, like absolutely nuts. But like I really

635
00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:40,360
Speaker 2: do think because you look at Wemby and it's like, Okay,

636
00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:42,000
Speaker 2: he's seven to five and flips his hips like a

637
00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:43,080
Speaker 2: slot corner, Like.

638
00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 1: What right do? Yeah? Yeah, you can't compete with that? Yeah, yeah, no,

639
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:51,600
Speaker 1: there's it's just a new evolution.

640
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:55,160
Speaker 2: Is it's the perimeter game that exposes Gobert every time,

641
00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:59,720
Speaker 2: and in Wemby you see a taller and more mobile

642
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:02,800
Speaker 2: version of that. He can still be like a wrecking

643
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:05,440
Speaker 2: ball inside exactly.

644
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 1: Yeah. Man.

645
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 2: And when he straight up said like after after Gobert

646
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:13,880
Speaker 2: one of this year, I'm barely paraphrasing here, he was like,

647
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:19,040
Speaker 2: congratulations to Rudy, good job, and after this it's not

648
00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:19,880
Speaker 2: his turn anymore.

649
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:21,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly.

650
00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:24,080
Speaker 2: And that's almost a direct quote.

651
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:25,240
Speaker 1: And he was right.

652
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:31,280
Speaker 3: He said, yeah, that's the thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it

653
00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 3: was along those lines.

654
00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 1: True. And we're gonna get to Wendy in a second,

655
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:38,440
Speaker 1: but before we do that, actually, I do want to mention, obviously,

656
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:44,720
Speaker 1: Bronny and lebron shared the court. I'm not nearly as

657
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:47,760
Speaker 1: mad as other Laker fans about this. I think I'm

658
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:50,600
Speaker 1: looking at this as like a you know, just a

659
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,480
Speaker 1: fan and someone who's like a newly became a parent,

660
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 1: and I'm like, this is this was really cool to see.

661
00:32:56,920 --> 00:33:00,760
Speaker 1: I really enjoyed the fact that they were able to.

662
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:03,720
Speaker 1: I think right after he came out the court, Lebron

663
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:08,080
Speaker 1: had such a like you know, trademark Lebron just like

664
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:10,120
Speaker 1: driving to the hoop and just slamming it. And I

665
00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,480
Speaker 1: was just thinking of like, if my dad, if my

666
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 1: like just pictures like that's my dad and we're on

667
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:19,120
Speaker 1: the same car right now. He did that, Like just

668
00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:22,040
Speaker 1: the situation was blowing my mind in a way I

669
00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:24,840
Speaker 1: wasn't expecting. I was like, hey, kid, that's your dad

670
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:27,680
Speaker 1: and you're playing on the court with him. Well, that's

671
00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:29,440
Speaker 1: that's something. It was just nice to see the whole

672
00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:31,760
Speaker 1: family sort of get that moment out of it. Now,

673
00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:33,840
Speaker 1: whether or not this is something that is sustained, I

674
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:36,720
Speaker 1: think is obviously a much larger question. But I don't

675
00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:38,440
Speaker 1: I don't agree with a lot of people who are

676
00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:40,400
Speaker 1: just directing a lot of this anger at him, Like, dude,

677
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 1: he's a kid. This is just how the chips fell.

678
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:44,840
Speaker 1: But I do think there's still some time for him

679
00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:46,400
Speaker 1: to develop, and I think he'll do that, and I

680
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:50,000
Speaker 1: think he'll become something somewhat of a contributor down the line.

681
00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:52,200
Speaker 1: But yeah, it was a nice moment to see it was.

682
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:56,680
Speaker 2: It was super cool. I've become much less curmudgeonly as

683
00:33:56,720 --> 00:34:00,320
Speaker 2: I've grown. Sure, I feel like there's so much in

684
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:03,880
Speaker 2: this screwed up world for us to be angry about, right,

685
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:06,360
Speaker 2: and basketball shouldn't be one of those things.

686
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:07,840
Speaker 3: You know, This this is a.

687
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:11,560
Speaker 1: This is a to forget the bad stuff.

688
00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:16,960
Speaker 2: Right, Like, you know, I just can't imagine working myself

689
00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:23,000
Speaker 2: up to get annoyed. It's like the thinking cap. This

690
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:26,359
Speaker 2: actually sucks. Like, actually, I.

691
00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:27,200
Speaker 3: Think it's cool.

692
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:30,400
Speaker 2: I think it's very cool that one of the greatest

693
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:34,680
Speaker 2: athletes of all time gets to have this moment with

694
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:39,279
Speaker 2: his son do something nobody's ever done before. And that's

695
00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:42,920
Speaker 2: something that even if like when I when I was

696
00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:46,880
Speaker 2: my first sports gig was writing like high school sports

697
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:50,680
Speaker 2: features for the Boston Globe, and my mom is not

698
00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:53,319
Speaker 2: a sports person at all, if I started telling her

699
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:56,359
Speaker 2: a story and an involved an athlete, brain shut off. Right,

700
00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:59,000
Speaker 2: this is one that passes the mom test. This is

701
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,799
Speaker 2: one that everybody and look at and be like, oh,

702
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:04,320
Speaker 2: that's neat. And we've got a whole bunch of people

703
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:08,799
Speaker 2: who were like Actually I want to dump on this teenager.

704
00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:12,960
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, people were just waiting for the opportunity. We

705
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:16,279
Speaker 1: know what this is. So the reality is this. It

706
00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:19,080
Speaker 1: can be two things. Is it a little bit exploitative?

707
00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:21,000
Speaker 4: Is it a little bit you know, are there question

708
00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:23,800
Speaker 4: marks about like is it really in Bronni's best interest

709
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:25,879
Speaker 4: to continue stay at this level and not be able

710
00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:26,440
Speaker 4: to develop?

711
00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:29,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, those are fair questions. But you don't have to

712
00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:31,319
Speaker 1: crap on the moment. It was a dope moment as

713
00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:34,359
Speaker 1: a matter of fact. That's humanstery. My human side loved it.

714
00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:38,640
Speaker 4: Now you will say, I will say, my degenerate, ridiculous

715
00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:42,279
Speaker 4: Lakers fan side internally said, Okay, I'm glad we had

716
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:45,759
Speaker 4: this moment, but Lebron, keep the family away, go ahead

717
00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:48,200
Speaker 4: and send him, go ahead and send him to South Bay.

718
00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:50,239
Speaker 4: Let him continue to develop, and you can have this

719
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:52,520
Speaker 4: moment again down the road, especially if he starts he

720
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:54,880
Speaker 4: starts to pop out and show and yet like and

721
00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:58,640
Speaker 4: that's completely fine. But for now, there's nothing wrong with

722
00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:00,600
Speaker 4: having a great moment on opening night.

723
00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:03,920
Speaker 2: I have not crunched the numbers on this, but I

724
00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:08,240
Speaker 2: can't imagine there are many second round picks who got

725
00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:11,360
Speaker 2: first half minutes in the first game of the season,

726
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:18,640
Speaker 2: like ever, right, no, so, but this is I understand

727
00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:21,359
Speaker 2: all of that part of it, right, but.

728
00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:24,760
Speaker 3: Also who cares exactly one.

729
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:28,200
Speaker 2: It's nice, good for them, it didn't matter, and the

730
00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:28,959
Speaker 2: course of the game.

731
00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:31,280
Speaker 1: No, And we also knew it was going to happen,

732
00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:34,839
Speaker 1: like every everyone was prepared. They're like, if it makes

733
00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 1: sense and the games moving in the right direction, we

734
00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:40,520
Speaker 1: will see this happen. And also didn't Anthony vers he

735
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:42,719
Speaker 1: didn't have to talk smack to him and be like, hey,

736
00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:44,200
Speaker 1: didn't he says like, bro, you don't even need a

737
00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:45,799
Speaker 1: shower bor you brought up.

738
00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:47,600
Speaker 3: Like is it in Bronnie's best interest?

739
00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:49,920
Speaker 2: Like there were some guys on the Timberwolves who were

740
00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:51,319
Speaker 2: like as soon as he got in, they were like.

741
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:53,680
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm going at him. Oh yeah, give me that

742
00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:55,040
Speaker 3: sitting around.

743
00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:58,000
Speaker 2: Pick welcome to the league, right yeah, And you know what,

744
00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:02,120
Speaker 2: all of that is compelling and interesting to watch fast

745
00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:04,279
Speaker 2: the crowd pop, the buzz.

746
00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:07,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, just enjoy it. Yeah, I'm here for it.

747
00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:13,120
Speaker 1: So wemby okay, uh kicking things off against Dallas right Thursday.

748
00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 1: So by the time you're hearing this, this game may

749
00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:21,880
Speaker 1: be happening in progress. But again, just the photos, the videos,

750
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:26,319
Speaker 1: the quotes coming out of Wemby. I'm so excited for

751
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:29,200
Speaker 1: this second year for him. I like how people like

752
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:31,759
Speaker 1: when there was that one viral photo where they're like,

753
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:33,880
Speaker 1: oh my god, he looking He's looking like Dwight Howard

754
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:36,279
Speaker 1: with those shoulders. What's just going on? But then he

755
00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 1: also clarified, He's like, no, I'm not putting on a tunnel.

756
00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:40,200
Speaker 1: Did he say? He's like, I can't do something more

757
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:42,680
Speaker 1: than five percent of my bodyweight a year. Oh so

758
00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:46,000
Speaker 1: I'm going to injure myself, which I'm also like, See,

759
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:48,120
Speaker 1: this is why I like you. He knows this is

760
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:51,400
Speaker 1: we have such good, such a good mindset around this

761
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:55,400
Speaker 1: career from the beginning. It's about longevity. It's about developing correctly,

762
00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,360
Speaker 1: knowing you have the tools and and just letting that

763
00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:00,600
Speaker 1: blossom in the way that it needs to. But with

764
00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:05,760
Speaker 1: Chris Paul there you know, and Castle, I'm just Tom,

765
00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:10,360
Speaker 1: You're the Spurs guy. Tell me, why, tell me why

766
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:13,640
Speaker 1: I should be so so much more excited than I

767
00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:17,000
Speaker 1: am because every look, like I said, Wenby's playing, I'm

768
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:19,600
Speaker 1: so excited, but give me even more, give me more fuel.

769
00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 1: For my dreams and my delusions.

770
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:25,440
Speaker 2: Well, at the beginning of last year, you know Pop

771
00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:28,600
Speaker 2: experiment with Jeremy So and a point guard, right, and

772
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:32,359
Speaker 2: that was a second year power forward playing at point

773
00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:37,120
Speaker 2: guard for twenty games, right, good for the long term

774
00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:42,799
Speaker 2: development of Jeremy So. Bad for the immediate winning of

775
00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:47,840
Speaker 2: basketball games and crunch time play, and overall floored generalliness

776
00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:51,600
Speaker 2: of the San Antonio Spurs during that time period. And

777
00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:55,600
Speaker 2: then now this season you've added not just Chris Paul,

778
00:38:55,680 --> 00:39:00,640
Speaker 2: who is you know, one of the most technically skilled

779
00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:03,400
Speaker 2: point guards to ever play the game in basketball and

780
00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:07,440
Speaker 2: one of the best floor generals ever, also had Harrison Barnes.

781
00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:08,680
Speaker 3: Who want to gold medal with Pop.

782
00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:12,759
Speaker 2: Who listen, every single guy who comes through San Antonio

783
00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:16,120
Speaker 2: in the next ten plus years is not going to

784
00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:19,680
Speaker 2: be the best guy on the team, right, And he

785
00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:23,440
Speaker 2: is a perfect mentor in that regard of how can

786
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:25,120
Speaker 2: you do the other things? How can you carve out

787
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:27,880
Speaker 2: a career, how can you be useful in pursuit of

788
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:28,560
Speaker 2: the ultimate goal?

789
00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:29,640
Speaker 1: Right?

790
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:34,479
Speaker 2: So, with those sort of training wheels, this Spurs team

791
00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:36,799
Speaker 2: left a lot of meat on the bone in terms

792
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:40,200
Speaker 2: of results last year. Oh, in that sports illustrated cover

793
00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:42,680
Speaker 2: story on wemby. I think it was thirty five games

794
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:45,080
Speaker 2: where they had a double digit lead and they lost

795
00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:48,680
Speaker 2: twenty of them, and they played a lot of forty

796
00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:49,680
Speaker 2: five minute games.

797
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:50,920
Speaker 3: They last forty eight.

798
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:54,760
Speaker 2: And you can see already the Chris Paul effect where

799
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:58,400
Speaker 2: it's not just spam pick and rolls like I would

800
00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:01,560
Speaker 2: in two K. Right, yeah, but the way that he

801
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:05,560
Speaker 2: gets everybody in the right spots, it's quite something to watch.

802
00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:11,560
Speaker 2: It's it's really and in between timeouts, right, watch him

803
00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:13,560
Speaker 2: during the breaks. If you get a chance to go

804
00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:16,799
Speaker 2: to a game, right, watch what he is doing when

805
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:17,760
Speaker 2: the ball is dead.

806
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:19,719
Speaker 3: He's always in somebody's ear.

807
00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:20,719
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah.

808
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:26,560
Speaker 2: And Castle, I mean who like he looks right, yeah, yeah,

809
00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 2: he looks correct. He looks like the no brainer picked

810
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:32,680
Speaker 2: for them to make there. He looks confident. He looks

811
00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:34,960
Speaker 2: like he can guard anybody one through three just needs SI.

812
00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:36,879
Speaker 1: Yeah.

813
00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:38,839
Speaker 4: I'm interested in seeing like you know, like, yeah, how

814
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:41,719
Speaker 4: CP three impacts all these guys. But there's a guy

815
00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:44,040
Speaker 4: and I mentioned him on last week's show, and and

816
00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:46,879
Speaker 4: and actually last summer we saw him in Summer.

817
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:51,600
Speaker 1: League City's so yeah, yeah, how far away already from

818
00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:54,480
Speaker 1: seeing him in regular action up with you know, with

819
00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:55,400
Speaker 1: the with the main squad.

820
00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:57,719
Speaker 3: So City is a really interesting one.

821
00:40:57,719 --> 00:40:59,240
Speaker 2: You said you didn't want to get in the weeds

822
00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:01,360
Speaker 2: before this, This is pretty in the weeds.

823
00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:05,279
Speaker 1: It was only by chance because we were there watching

824
00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:06,759
Speaker 1: the Summer League and I was like, well, who is

825
00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:08,960
Speaker 1: this a socle cat? Yeah?

826
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:12,600
Speaker 2: Is so he played G League season before he got drafted, right,

827
00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:15,760
Speaker 2: Not many nineteen year olds have like an NBA ready body.

828
00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:17,920
Speaker 3: He did. And yeah, French.

829
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:22,640
Speaker 2: Player with a really interesting combination of size and athleticism

830
00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:26,960
Speaker 2: and passing ability and playmaking. But still with that pro

831
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:29,440
Speaker 2: experience and with a lot of last year in the

832
00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:32,560
Speaker 2: G League, his skills are still pretty raw, right, and

833
00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:36,200
Speaker 2: he doesn't really have a reliable outside jumper to sort

834
00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:39,319
Speaker 2: of compensate for that. So it becomes a question of

835
00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:41,000
Speaker 2: where does he slot into the rotation?

836
00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:41,720
Speaker 3: What position?

837
00:41:42,239 --> 00:41:46,040
Speaker 2: Right, I've been really impressed by Blake Wesley in the preseason,

838
00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:49,200
Speaker 2: and he's probably the third point guard behind Chris Paul

839
00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:54,760
Speaker 2: and Trey Jones. Castle probably won't even like he'll probably

840
00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:58,880
Speaker 2: come off the benches too, right. Yeah, so suddenly the

841
00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:04,360
Speaker 2: spurs are deeper, uh than maybe they seem. But CEDI

842
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:05,919
Speaker 2: is a guy who could take a leap this year.

843
00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:09,400
Speaker 2: So he's definitely a really fascinating prospect. He kind of

844
00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:11,800
Speaker 2: gives me like young boristil a little bit.

845
00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:15,319
Speaker 1: Mmmm that that was the comparison I was making last year.

846
00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:16,560
Speaker 1: I was like you Skinny Dio.

847
00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:20,320
Speaker 3: Right, yeah, exactly, the one that cleared the whole VerTech machine.

848
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:22,000
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

849
00:42:22,040 --> 00:42:24,160
Speaker 3: I wasn't expecting siska questions. That's great.

850
00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:26,880
Speaker 4: Hey, well look I actually watched a lot of Spurs

851
00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:29,799
Speaker 4: basketball year. I watched a lot of basketball last year,

852
00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:31,120
Speaker 4: and I'm going to do it again this year.

853
00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:33,040
Speaker 3: So it's going to be more fun this year.

854
00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:34,960
Speaker 1: What do we think in is it?

855
00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:35,279
Speaker 4: Uh?

856
00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:37,600
Speaker 1: Do we do we turn up the heat on the

857
00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:41,000
Speaker 1: expectations stove? Or yeah, we still need to we still

858
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:43,040
Speaker 1: need to be like let's let's let's let's let it

859
00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:45,240
Speaker 1: cook a little bit more. Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

860
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:47,640
Speaker 1: But I don't know, just seeing just hearing you talk

861
00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:50,920
Speaker 1: about that, seeing the wisdom and the potential that is

862
00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:54,719
Speaker 1: being put together, I think I'm not that I'm saying

863
00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:56,520
Speaker 1: this is something we're like, yo, this this is this

864
00:42:56,719 --> 00:42:58,839
Speaker 1: some some wild is about to have. But I feel

865
00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:01,239
Speaker 1: like there is going to be a markid improvement all last.

866
00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:04,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's you know, shoot for the moon, aim

867
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:05,440
Speaker 2: for the stars.

868
00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:09,759
Speaker 1: Yeah whatever on the moon. Yeah, something like that.

869
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:12,680
Speaker 2: And in fairness is it's a it doesn't make any

870
00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:15,560
Speaker 2: sense because the stars are way further away, but whatever.

871
00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:19,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, if you landed on the moon and you were shooting.

872
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:20,759
Speaker 3: But you know what I'm saying, like you got you

873
00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:22,040
Speaker 3: gotta be You.

874
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:26,719
Speaker 1: Couldn't even go one par sec. Man couldn't even get

875
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:31,520
Speaker 1: to Alpha Centauri baby the moon. Anyway, from my astronomy

876
00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:32,360
Speaker 1: fans out there.

877
00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:34,560
Speaker 2: They need to be aiming for the play and I

878
00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:36,840
Speaker 2: don't think they're going to hit a guaranteed playoff spot,

879
00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:40,080
Speaker 2: but like I'm really interested to see here. And Jabari

880
00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:42,640
Speaker 2: kind of asked me this earlier about how active they're

881
00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:43,840
Speaker 2: going to be on the trade market.

882
00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:46,680
Speaker 3: They've been stacking chips.

883
00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:51,040
Speaker 2: Wisely frugally for years now, started with the Kawhi trade,

884
00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:56,120
Speaker 2: but they have acquired literally dozens of draft picks, like

885
00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:58,920
Speaker 2: like it's an embarrassment they you know, they use their

886
00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:01,279
Speaker 2: cap space helps scilitate to move pick up a second

887
00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:04,000
Speaker 2: round pick. Brian Wright has just done a million of

888
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:09,000
Speaker 2: those trades and some bigger ones, and one bigger trade

889
00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:13,279
Speaker 2: in particular that really set in motion not just where

890
00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:15,680
Speaker 2: the Spurs roster is now, but where it could be.

891
00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:19,799
Speaker 2: Is de Jontay Murray trade right? Traded this guy right

892
00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:22,520
Speaker 2: after an all Star season peak of his value for

893
00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:27,400
Speaker 2: essentially three first round picks twenty five a swap in

894
00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:31,000
Speaker 2: twenty six and twenty seven. Twenty five draft is coming up.

895
00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:32,439
Speaker 2: What are the Hawks doing?

896
00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:33,800
Speaker 1: Right?

897
00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:38,960
Speaker 3: Who could the Hawks trade Tray Young two?

898
00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:39,640
Speaker 1: Right?

899
00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:44,399
Speaker 2: And is there any way for them to get their

900
00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:49,000
Speaker 2: own picks if they stink this year? If they say,

901
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:51,960
Speaker 2: you know what we want, Cooper Flag, the Spurs are like,

902
00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:53,359
Speaker 2: that's our pick.

903
00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:56,320
Speaker 1: Actually, yeah, sorry about that. Yeah.

904
00:44:56,400 --> 00:45:04,120
Speaker 2: So that's a situation that I'm eyeing with extreme interest because, like,

905
00:45:04,880 --> 00:45:07,560
Speaker 2: the Hawks are basically at the bottom of a hole

906
00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 2: with a shovel, and the guy who gave them the

907
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:13,759
Speaker 2: shovel and told him to start digging is the one

908
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:15,520
Speaker 2: standing up there like with his hand out.

909
00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:15,840
Speaker 3: Maybe.

910
00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:18,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm the only one who can really help you

911
00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:20,680
Speaker 2: out of this one, right, you just got to give

912
00:45:20,719 --> 00:45:23,759
Speaker 2: me Trey Young. Yeah, and it doesn't have to be

913
00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:27,640
Speaker 2: Tray Young, right, But like Chris Paul, they didn't bring

914
00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:29,560
Speaker 2: him in thinking this is going to be the point

915
00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 2: guard that you know starts next to Wemby when they

916
00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:34,840
Speaker 2: when we went our first championship with him, right, he's more.

917
00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:36,799
Speaker 1: Of a bridge, right, Yeah, absolutely, But.

918
00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:39,120
Speaker 2: Now you start asking a bridge to what. And that

919
00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:42,440
Speaker 2: Chris Paul contract, he took a gignormous pay cut, not

920
00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:44,840
Speaker 2: just to make it work in San Antonio, so that

921
00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:48,320
Speaker 2: it's a tradable number at the deadline if his stock

922
00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:51,160
Speaker 2: goes way up, because he throws a ton of lobs

923
00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:54,920
Speaker 2: to Victor women out right, right. So I think the

924
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:59,360
Speaker 2: Spurs have positioned themselves. They have a ridiculous war chest

925
00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:02,680
Speaker 2: to work with, similar to what the Thunder we're able

926
00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:06,560
Speaker 2: to assemble and you know, a few years behind on that.

927
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:08,960
Speaker 3: Trajectory is sort of where I see it.

928
00:46:09,200 --> 00:46:15,359
Speaker 2: But obviously with a extraterrestrial superstar who you know.

929
00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:16,640
Speaker 3: It was.

930

Speaker 1: questions as quickly as humanly possible and using your mind

950
00:47:27,440 --> 00:47:29,719

00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:32,320
Speaker 3: I'm a little slow, but we'll we'll try.

952

959
00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:58,960
Speaker 4: as a coach down the line.

960
00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:01,640
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's his first staff, but it

961
00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:04,560
Speaker 2: will be. He will be a head coach in this league.

962
00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:06,920
Speaker 2: I think if you, if you look around at this

963
00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:10,600
Speaker 2: at the NBA players who are in it now, who

964
00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:14,560
Speaker 2: could most follow that JJ Reddick career path, probably skip

965
00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:17,240
Speaker 2: the podcasting and go right onto somebody's bench.

966
00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:18,040
Speaker 1: Yeah.

967
00:48:18,080 --> 00:48:23,000
Speaker 2: Absolutely, and the Popovitch coaching tree grows evermore.

968
00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:26,160
Speaker 1: Yep. Yeah, Okay, next question, We're gonna play pick up

969
00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:28,719
Speaker 1: hoops of musicians and we're just looking around. These are

970
00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:30,880
Speaker 1: all musicians in the court, and we just got the

971
00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:34,920
Speaker 1: first pick and I took my favorite rapper, Shack Diesel. Okay,

972
00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:39,200
Speaker 1: Unfortunately we had to create a role just right away

973
00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:42,279
Speaker 1: that nobody else is allowed to draft anybody who has

974
00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:46,760
Speaker 1: ever played professional basketball. So who are you taking next? Musicians?

975
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:49,440
Speaker 2: I don't know if he can hoop, but what I

976
00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:54,799
Speaker 2: saw Hosier this year and he's like six seven, He's

977
00:48:54,800 --> 00:48:55,960
Speaker 2: tall as hell, so he.

978
00:48:56,600 --> 00:48:59,160
Speaker 1: Take me to chat. Yeah, that guy is six seven,

979
00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:00,799
Speaker 1: that's coming from six to seven?

980
00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:06,400
Speaker 2: Yes, bro, Wow, gorgeous, gorgeous, gigantic irishman.

981

Speaker 3: I could I could work with that, you know.

00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:13,040
Speaker 1: I mean I did pick Shack Diesels just so you know,

984
00:49:13,080 --> 00:49:15,560
Speaker 1: so if that's your thing, and then.

985
00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:16,600
Speaker 3: I don't, I don't know.

986
00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:19,840

987
00:49:19,880 --> 00:49:22,319

988
00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:24,920
Speaker 2: decent outside game, not a musician.

989

1042
00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:12,120
Speaker 1: how about this, Tom, If the NBA scheduled the finals

1043
00:52:12,200 --> 00:52:15,880
Speaker 1: location similar to how the NFL or even college basketball

1044
00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:19,399
Speaker 1: or even the UEFA Champions League does, where would your

1045
00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:21,640

1046
00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:27,160
Speaker 2: That's a great question. Seattle in Vegas? One more and

1047
00:52:27,200 --> 00:52:30,319

Speaker 3: Yeah, back.

1050
00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:39,960
Speaker 2: Very day when they did the fiftieth anniversary game, when

1051
00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:42,560
Speaker 2: the Alamo Dome was the Spurs home, it was like

1052
00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:44,600
Speaker 2: the Carrier Dome and they had a curtain.

1053
00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:47,240
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, yeah, exactly right, Yeah, I remember they still.

1054
00:52:47,040 --> 00:52:49,160

00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:49,440
Speaker 1: Right.

1056
00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:53,719
Speaker 2: The Dome game that set the record for attendance was

1057
00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:58,399
Speaker 2: sixty eight thousand for a basketball game in a football stadium, right,

1058
00:52:58,480 --> 00:53:01,719
Speaker 2: Because they they reoriented the court and did the whole thing.

1059
00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:05,480
Speaker 3: Vibe was tremendous. So that's my three.
