0:03:21.160 --> 0:03:23.280

0:03:25.919 --> 0:03:27.639
<v Speaker 2>we're not gonna waste any time. Let's get into it.

0:03:27.680 --> 0:03:30.320
<v Speaker 2>Our first segment of the night is a news cap

0:03:30.800 --> 0:03:32.839
<v Speaker 2>whoo and boys of the joosy.

0:03:39.480 --> 0:03:39.920
<v Speaker 4>Man.

0:03:41.120 --> 0:03:42.840
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what they got going on in Boston,

0:03:42.880 --> 0:03:45.200
<v Speaker 2>but it's something good. They opened up the tea party

0:03:45.240 --> 0:03:48.800
<v Speaker 2>on the Warriors. The Celtics beat the Warriors bout fifty two.

0:03:49.160 --> 0:03:52.000
<v Speaker 2>The Celtics become the first team in NBA history to

0:03:52.080 --> 0:03:55.320
<v Speaker 2>win at least three games by fifty plus points in

0:03:55.440 --> 0:03:58.400
<v Speaker 2>a calendar season. Let that sink here for a second.

0:03:58.640 --> 0:04:02.320
<v Speaker 2>In one season, they've already beaten three teams by at

0:04:02.400 --> 0:04:05.760
<v Speaker 2>least fifty points. The Warriors have won thirteen of their

0:04:05.840 --> 0:04:09.160
<v Speaker 2>last sixteen games, eleven straight. And that comes with no

0:04:09.320 --> 0:04:14.720
<v Speaker 2>Christophe Prezingers thirteen of sixteen and no presingers. And you know, hey,

0:04:14.960 --> 0:04:17.280
<v Speaker 2>the Warriors had been playing well. The Warriors had been

0:04:17.279 --> 0:04:20.479
<v Speaker 2>playing extremely well. The Celtics won by fifty two in

0:04:20.480 --> 0:04:22.440
<v Speaker 2>the game was over at half. I'm not mistaken. I

0:04:22.480 --> 0:04:24.960
<v Speaker 2>think the game was what eighty two to thirty eight

0:04:25.360 --> 0:04:28.320
<v Speaker 2>at the half. I've never seen a score like that, Gil,

0:04:28.400 --> 0:04:30.440
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I've seen teams get to I remember I

0:04:30.440 --> 0:04:32.880
<v Speaker 2>think that the Phoenix Suns scored one hundred and three

0:04:32.960 --> 0:04:35.200
<v Speaker 2>or one hundred and five and a half. So I've

0:04:35.200 --> 0:04:37.680
<v Speaker 2>seen teams get to like the eighties and get to

0:04:37.720 --> 0:04:39.800
<v Speaker 2>the nineties. Like I said, I remember the Phoenix Sun

0:04:39.880 --> 0:04:42.000
<v Speaker 2>scored over one hundred at the half. But I've never

0:04:42.000 --> 0:04:45.640
<v Speaker 2>seen a score this lopsided at the half. What forty

0:04:45.640 --> 0:04:48.200
<v Speaker 2>four points? Yeah, forty four points at a half? Eighty

0:04:48.200 --> 0:04:50.599
<v Speaker 2>two to thirty eight, and it was you know, they're

0:04:50.600 --> 0:04:53.080
<v Speaker 2>playing without presingers. And as I mentioned, the Warriors were

0:04:53.080 --> 0:04:56.920
<v Speaker 2>playing extremely well. So what did you take away from

0:04:56.920 --> 0:04:58.800
<v Speaker 2>this ball game? What did you take away from what

0:04:58.880 --> 0:05:01.359
<v Speaker 2>Boston did, how well they played, and what do you

0:05:01.360 --> 0:05:02.280
<v Speaker 2>see from Golden State.

0:05:04.000 --> 0:05:06.479
<v Speaker 4>It showed exactly why it's.

0:05:06.320 --> 0:05:09.479
<v Speaker 1>Hard to guard people in today's game, Right, there's so

0:05:09.640 --> 0:05:13.000
<v Speaker 1>much offense on the court that when you tried to

0:05:13.080 --> 0:05:15.599
<v Speaker 1>let someone shoot, like today, they went into the game

0:05:16.360 --> 0:05:18.440
<v Speaker 1>letting Jalen Brown shoot the ball.

0:05:19.240 --> 0:05:20.640
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, right, the guy.

0:05:20.440 --> 0:05:22.880
<v Speaker 1>Who makes two hundred and fifty seven million dollars.

0:05:23.200 --> 0:05:25.880
<v Speaker 4>He's the guy three hundred. Yeah, three hundred and four.

0:05:27.240 --> 0:05:30.520
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna let We're gonna let mister three hundred shoot

0:05:30.520 --> 0:05:34.760
<v Speaker 1>those shots. And he had nineteen points. The score was

0:05:34.880 --> 0:05:40.760
<v Speaker 1>nineteen to twenty one. He had nineteen points in the

0:05:40.839 --> 0:05:44.840
<v Speaker 1>first quarter, which they finished forty four to twenty two.

0:05:47.480 --> 0:05:49.960
<v Speaker 4>Yikes, Like they got outscored when it was.

0:05:49.920 --> 0:05:52.840
<v Speaker 1>Twenty one twenty one and they got to go out

0:05:52.839 --> 0:05:55.400
<v Speaker 1>score twenty eighty three and then they finished they finished

0:05:55.400 --> 0:05:58.400
<v Speaker 1>a quarter forty four to twenty two. It just shows

0:05:58.400 --> 0:06:01.360
<v Speaker 1>you how much scoring powers is in the game now.

0:06:03.120 --> 0:06:06.000
<v Speaker 2>It is, and it's tough, like you said, but Harr's

0:06:06.040 --> 0:06:09.360
<v Speaker 2>the thing when you let a professional, I mean, just

0:06:09.360 --> 0:06:13.279
<v Speaker 2>think about what you're saying. You're letting a professional do

0:06:13.440 --> 0:06:17.039
<v Speaker 2>something uninhibited. Oh, he's not the best receiver, so we're

0:06:17.080 --> 0:06:18.920
<v Speaker 2>not gonna guard him.

0:06:19.200 --> 0:06:20.320
<v Speaker 4>That's basically what you're saying.

0:06:20.560 --> 0:06:23.280
<v Speaker 2>Well, he's not there, he's not their best shooter, so

0:06:23.279 --> 0:06:25.560
<v Speaker 2>we're not gonna guard him. So you're gonna I mean

0:06:25.960 --> 0:06:28.039
<v Speaker 2>a guy within you know, there's nobody within six feet

0:06:28.080 --> 0:06:30.560
<v Speaker 2>of it. So he's basically this is a walk through

0:06:30.600 --> 0:06:33.000
<v Speaker 2>for him, just a shoot around practice for him.

0:06:33.400 --> 0:06:36.440
<v Speaker 4>He's gonna knock that more time than not. Give a

0:06:36.520 --> 0:06:37.880
<v Speaker 4>guy of that caliber.

0:06:37.960 --> 0:06:39.680
<v Speaker 2>You make it seem like you you you, you you

0:06:39.839 --> 0:06:42.719
<v Speaker 2>leaving together the twelfth guy on the bench open. He's

0:06:42.760 --> 0:06:45.600
<v Speaker 2>a starter, he's an All Star, and you're gonna show him.

0:06:45.600 --> 0:06:48.120
<v Speaker 2>You're gonna basically, and he said, you know he's Uh.

0:06:48.320 --> 0:06:51.360
<v Speaker 2>Steve Kurk said, our strategy, that was our strategy going

0:06:51.400 --> 0:06:54.560
<v Speaker 2>to the game with the sag off someone Okay, Jaylen

0:06:54.600 --> 0:06:57.000
<v Speaker 2>Brown says, oh, I hope other teams use that strategy.

0:06:57.480 --> 0:07:01.080
<v Speaker 2>That's disrespectful that a man of his caliber that you say,

0:07:01.120 --> 0:07:02.600
<v Speaker 2>you know what, We're not gonna even guard you.

0:07:03.600 --> 0:07:04.440
<v Speaker 4>It's embarrassing.

0:07:04.480 --> 0:07:07.880
<v Speaker 1>I remember, uh when I used to play and you know,

0:07:07.920 --> 0:07:10.800
<v Speaker 1>we had Jared Jefferies, you know, in the court and

0:07:10.840 --> 0:07:12.920
<v Speaker 1>they'll double off him and I'll pass it and he

0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:16.200
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't shoot the ball. And you know, when you get frustrated,

0:07:16.240 --> 0:07:18.320
<v Speaker 1>you you say some things you don't supposed to say.

0:07:19.040 --> 0:07:21.320
<v Speaker 1>And you know I yelled at him, you daphing Baum

0:07:21.560 --> 0:07:26.680
<v Speaker 1>like yo, you you are NBA player and you letting

0:07:26.680 --> 0:07:30.200
<v Speaker 1>them come off you to come double me. Oh come on, man,

0:07:30.240 --> 0:07:31.320
<v Speaker 1>you gotta take some pride.

0:07:31.360 --> 0:07:32.800
<v Speaker 4>I don't give a shit if you kick the ball

0:07:32.840 --> 0:07:34.720
<v Speaker 4>in the stand. At this point, you better do something

0:07:34.720 --> 0:07:35.240
<v Speaker 4>because it's just this.

0:07:35.760 --> 0:07:38.760
<v Speaker 1>You are a NBA player and they doubling off you.

0:07:39.200 --> 0:07:42.160
<v Speaker 1>Ain't no way you gonna go leave me as an

0:07:42.280 --> 0:07:45.400
<v Speaker 1>NBA player to go double another NBA player.

0:07:45.560 --> 0:07:49.119
<v Speaker 4>I'm gonna feel disrespected. Yeah, And that's how everybody should

0:07:49.120 --> 0:07:49.320
<v Speaker 4>take this.

0:07:49.480 --> 0:07:51.760
<v Speaker 1>Ben Simmons, Ain't no way You're gonna sit at the

0:07:51.760 --> 0:07:53.040
<v Speaker 1>free throw line on me.

0:07:54.160 --> 0:07:56.320
<v Speaker 4>I'm a run jump, I'm a you gonna.

0:07:56.320 --> 0:07:57.880
<v Speaker 1>You better take a charge of the free thrown because

0:07:57.880 --> 0:08:01.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm coming right and I I don't think enough players

0:08:01.680 --> 0:08:05.200
<v Speaker 1>take fright into shooting right.

0:08:06.000 --> 0:08:07.080
<v Speaker 4>Yes, the fact that.

0:08:07.320 --> 0:08:09.320
<v Speaker 1>You can just leave your man and go we're gonna

0:08:09.360 --> 0:08:10.960
<v Speaker 1>sag off him like he ain't that dude?

0:08:11.480 --> 0:08:14.280
<v Speaker 4>Right? And I'm glad Jaylen Brown all right, I got

0:08:14.320 --> 0:08:16.800
<v Speaker 4>you gonna you're gonna sag He's gonna yeah this nineteen

0:08:16.880 --> 0:08:17.360
<v Speaker 4>make you pay?

0:08:18.760 --> 0:08:21.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he got He's got to make him pay. I

0:08:21.080 --> 0:08:26.400
<v Speaker 2>think the thing is gil the biggest problem with say

0:08:26.440 --> 0:08:29.360
<v Speaker 2>Ben Simmons, it's not that Ben Simmons can't shoot. He's

0:08:29.400 --> 0:08:31.880
<v Speaker 2>afraid to shoot. And see, if you're afraid to do something,

0:08:31.920 --> 0:08:33.920
<v Speaker 2>I can't teach you how to do it. You see

0:08:33.920 --> 0:08:35.680
<v Speaker 2>if I'm if you're afraid of the water, I can't

0:08:35.679 --> 0:08:38.280
<v Speaker 2>teach you how to swim. If you afraid of animals,

0:08:38.320 --> 0:08:40.480
<v Speaker 2>you can't be a veterinarian. If you're afraid of blood,

0:08:40.520 --> 0:08:41.560
<v Speaker 2>how you become a doctor?

0:08:42.040 --> 0:08:42.199
<v Speaker 4>Ben?

0:08:42.320 --> 0:08:44.480
<v Speaker 2>I don't know how Ben Simmons, because he was so

0:08:44.600 --> 0:08:48.480
<v Speaker 2>great at everything else that Oh and see, I thought

0:08:48.520 --> 0:08:50.840
<v Speaker 2>every coach he's had, because they kicked it down the road.

0:08:51.640 --> 0:08:53.480
<v Speaker 2>His middle school coaching that kicked out and said, when

0:08:53.480 --> 0:08:55.440
<v Speaker 2>you get to high school, they'll teach him how to shoot.

0:08:55.679 --> 0:08:58.160
<v Speaker 2>And when he an AAU, when he gets to college,

0:08:58.200 --> 0:08:59.839
<v Speaker 2>they'll teach him how to shoot. And when they got

0:08:59.840 --> 0:09:01.880
<v Speaker 2>to hell, we only got him a year. Hell, they're

0:09:01.880 --> 0:09:04.040
<v Speaker 2>gonna have him for ten fifteen years in the NBA.

0:09:04.200 --> 0:09:06.360
<v Speaker 2>Let them. So everybody kick the can.

0:09:06.240 --> 0:09:07.920
<v Speaker 4>Down the road. And here we are.

0:09:08.080 --> 0:09:11.240
<v Speaker 2>We got an NBA player that was an All Star,

0:09:11.440 --> 0:09:12.920
<v Speaker 2>that was a Rookie of the Year, that was an

0:09:12.960 --> 0:09:16.960
<v Speaker 2>All Defensive player, who was a budget and Defensive Player

0:09:17.000 --> 0:09:19.560
<v Speaker 2>of the Year. And he can't shoot no better than

0:09:19.559 --> 0:09:21.640
<v Speaker 2>I can't not hating shout of basketball in thirty years

0:09:22.320 --> 0:09:23.720
<v Speaker 2>because he's afraid kill.

0:09:25.640 --> 0:09:29.120
<v Speaker 1>I've watched him three summers on he can shoot the

0:09:29.160 --> 0:09:31.920
<v Speaker 1>ball like he can shoot the ball, like.

0:09:31.960 --> 0:09:33.120
<v Speaker 4>The mechanics is good.

0:09:33.960 --> 0:09:37.439
<v Speaker 1>Feet his feet placement is good, especially for a left

0:09:37.440 --> 0:09:37.960
<v Speaker 1>handed guy.

0:09:38.559 --> 0:09:41.120
<v Speaker 4>He doesn't have that. We'll go to the side shot

0:09:41.280 --> 0:09:42.000
<v Speaker 4>like that. Yet.

0:09:43.280 --> 0:09:47.920
<v Speaker 1>I think it's his depth perception. I think it's off

0:09:48.760 --> 0:09:51.360
<v Speaker 1>because you know, in a smaller gym, so that happened.

0:09:51.520 --> 0:09:51.920
<v Speaker 4>That happened.

0:09:51.920 --> 0:09:54.120
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if that's a football thing, but in

0:09:54.160 --> 0:10:00.199
<v Speaker 1>the NBA, yeah, some players are excellent shooters in small gym.

0:10:00.440 --> 0:10:02.600
<v Speaker 1>When you put him in an arena, for some reason,

0:10:02.640 --> 0:10:05.839
<v Speaker 1>they can't gauge that that basket no more right when

0:10:05.840 --> 0:10:06.800
<v Speaker 1>they get into the game.

0:10:07.120 --> 0:10:09.000
<v Speaker 4>It's too far for them, so they.

0:10:08.840 --> 0:10:11.480
<v Speaker 1>Don't know how to gauge, which I tell I tell guys, yo,

0:10:11.600 --> 0:10:15.120
<v Speaker 1>as much as you practice in the gym, the practice gym,

0:10:15.320 --> 0:10:18.080
<v Speaker 1>you need to go into the arena too. You can

0:10:18.360 --> 0:10:22.120
<v Speaker 1>you can see how be large and feel the space,

0:10:22.360 --> 0:10:23.480
<v Speaker 1>because that's a real thing.

0:10:23.720 --> 0:10:27.280
<v Speaker 4>And I think that's actually his problem because when it.

0:10:27.200 --> 0:10:29.640
<v Speaker 1>Comes to shooting, I'm sitting there, I'm like, the boy

0:10:29.640 --> 0:10:32.960
<v Speaker 1>can shoot the ball like he can shoot the ball.

0:10:33.120 --> 0:10:35.840
<v Speaker 4>But when any game, I'm like, what's going on here?

0:10:37.240 --> 0:10:39.320
<v Speaker 2>I think I think some of the things that well

0:10:39.360 --> 0:10:43.120
<v Speaker 2>considering that because like outdoors, everything is outdoors, so the

0:10:43.160 --> 0:10:46.160
<v Speaker 2>space is the same outdoors, and maybe it's a little

0:10:46.160 --> 0:10:48.600
<v Speaker 2>different than the dome. Sometimes you can lose the ball

0:10:48.679 --> 0:10:51.600
<v Speaker 2>up in the lights, and especially at night, the ball

0:10:51.640 --> 0:10:53.520
<v Speaker 2>gets you know, and so that's why we did a

0:10:53.559 --> 0:10:55.800
<v Speaker 2>lot of walkthroughs that we played the night game. We

0:10:55.880 --> 0:10:58.640
<v Speaker 2>always did a walk through the night before the game

0:10:59.240 --> 0:11:01.880
<v Speaker 2>or at some point time, so to get our eyes

0:11:01.960 --> 0:11:03.600
<v Speaker 2>used to light, looking up in the light and catching

0:11:03.600 --> 0:11:05.800
<v Speaker 2>it because it's different. Same thing with the sun, sometimes

0:11:05.840 --> 0:11:07.560
<v Speaker 2>you get a glare, but at night it's a little

0:11:07.559 --> 0:11:10.480
<v Speaker 2>different because there's light that's lighting up the stadium, and

0:11:10.559 --> 0:11:12.400
<v Speaker 2>so you have to be able to adjust to the ball.

0:11:12.679 --> 0:11:14.040
<v Speaker 4>And plus it's dark.

0:11:13.800 --> 0:11:16.160
<v Speaker 2>It's you know, just like anything it's it gets up

0:11:16.200 --> 0:11:18.839
<v Speaker 2>on you, so you you you know, your vision has

0:11:18.880 --> 0:11:20.920
<v Speaker 2>to be really you have to be really focused to

0:11:20.960 --> 0:11:23.400
<v Speaker 2>play at night because the ball is still the same size.

0:11:23.480 --> 0:11:26.240
<v Speaker 4>They don't inflake the ball to the ball get bigger

0:11:26.480 --> 0:11:27.040
<v Speaker 4>so you can.

0:11:27.000 --> 0:11:28.880
<v Speaker 2>See it at night, and so you have to like

0:11:29.000 --> 0:11:31.280
<v Speaker 2>hone in I really tried to pick the ball up

0:11:31.280 --> 0:11:33.720
<v Speaker 2>coming out of the quarterback's hand. Now that wasn't always

0:11:33.760 --> 0:11:37.640
<v Speaker 2>the case because sometimes I had defenders into in front

0:11:37.640 --> 0:11:38.960
<v Speaker 2>of me, and a lot of times the ball was

0:11:38.960 --> 0:11:40.640
<v Speaker 2>coming over my shoulder so I had to track it

0:11:40.960 --> 0:11:43.240
<v Speaker 2>and look it in. But I just think the thing

0:11:43.280 --> 0:11:45.520
<v Speaker 2>you have to deal with him is that maybe he

0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:48.160
<v Speaker 2>and I've seen him in open runs too, and he's

0:11:48.160 --> 0:11:51.800
<v Speaker 2>shooting the ball, but something happened. Maybe it's stage fright,

0:11:51.880 --> 0:11:53.400
<v Speaker 2>and you know, some people get on the stage and

0:11:53.400 --> 0:11:57.960
<v Speaker 2>they're like and maybe that's what it is with him

0:11:58.120 --> 0:12:00.880
<v Speaker 2>because at sixteen, and he could and he could do everything.

0:12:00.880 --> 0:12:02.800
<v Speaker 4>He can handle the ball, he could defend.

0:12:03.080 --> 0:12:06.360
<v Speaker 2>He had decent post up game, not great, but I mean,

0:12:06.360 --> 0:12:09.120
<v Speaker 2>when you're sixteen, it shouldn't be that hard to post up,

0:12:09.360 --> 0:12:11.760
<v Speaker 2>especially guys that you're gonna be posting up because most

0:12:11.800 --> 0:12:14.040
<v Speaker 2>of them are going to be smaller than you. But

0:12:14.640 --> 0:12:19.080
<v Speaker 2>he lost it somewhere. But the Golden State they got

0:12:19.160 --> 0:12:24.040
<v Speaker 2>issues because really they are are two. You know, I

0:12:24.080 --> 0:12:26.800
<v Speaker 2>look at Kaminga, Kmminga's really coming into his own and

0:12:26.840 --> 0:12:29.240
<v Speaker 2>step and step So we don't need to offer an

0:12:29.280 --> 0:12:30.360
<v Speaker 2>explanation for Steph.

0:12:30.559 --> 0:12:32.760
<v Speaker 4>He had one of those games and he hadn't had

0:12:33.080 --> 0:12:33.360
<v Speaker 4>you know.

0:12:33.360 --> 0:12:36.559
<v Speaker 2>Guys don't have like him, don't have guys to have

0:12:36.640 --> 0:12:37.360
<v Speaker 2>games like that.

0:12:37.520 --> 0:12:39.240
<v Speaker 4>Often kaminga.

0:12:39.600 --> 0:12:42.160
<v Speaker 2>I love his game, but when you look at it,

0:12:42.440 --> 0:12:45.320
<v Speaker 2>what are we really talking about? Draymond is not the

0:12:45.360 --> 0:12:49.920
<v Speaker 2>offensive threat. Looney plays limited minutes. Moody still is searching,

0:12:49.920 --> 0:12:53.120
<v Speaker 2>that's still looking for him to find his game. What's

0:12:53.160 --> 0:12:56.720
<v Speaker 2>the young guy pause? I forget his name, but anyway,

0:12:57.640 --> 0:13:00.120
<v Speaker 2>but what are we really talking about? I mean, they

0:13:00.240 --> 0:13:02.440
<v Speaker 2>seem like, oh, if they get this scribe, they're not

0:13:02.440 --> 0:13:05.120
<v Speaker 2>gonna get this scride. They are what they are. They

0:13:05.160 --> 0:13:07.240
<v Speaker 2>got one superstar and that's stuff.

0:13:08.480 --> 0:13:11.600
<v Speaker 1>Moody's looking for his game like Yo Chat, looking for Oho.

0:13:11.920 --> 0:13:14.959
<v Speaker 4>He ain't coming. He ain't coming, y'all.

0:13:17.200 --> 0:13:20.400
<v Speaker 1>This is what just stuck with right here right the

0:13:20.480 --> 0:13:23.880
<v Speaker 1>Golden State Warriors. The only reason we say they have

0:13:23.960 --> 0:13:26.520
<v Speaker 1>a chance is because of Curry, right.

0:13:26.559 --> 0:13:27.040
<v Speaker 4>That see it?

0:13:27.240 --> 0:13:31.000
<v Speaker 1>Because Perky brings it out of us to always give

0:13:31.080 --> 0:13:34.080
<v Speaker 1>them a shot. But for the part, Play is not

0:13:34.200 --> 0:13:37.960
<v Speaker 1>himself anymore. He got put to the bench. Wiggins don't

0:13:38.000 --> 0:13:40.000
<v Speaker 1>know if he wants to be America or if he

0:13:40.040 --> 0:13:42.120
<v Speaker 1>want to go back to Canada, because for the most

0:13:42.160 --> 0:13:43.959
<v Speaker 1>part he's there half the season.

0:13:43.800 --> 0:13:45.559
<v Speaker 2>With whatever he got some personal that he got some

0:13:45.679 --> 0:13:47.040
<v Speaker 2>going Gill, we don't know what he got going on.

0:13:47.120 --> 0:13:48.040
<v Speaker 4>He got going on.

0:13:48.120 --> 0:13:50.480
<v Speaker 1>Maybe most likely if it's if it has to do

0:13:50.640 --> 0:13:54.160
<v Speaker 1>because this happened last year. Maybe Pops is in trouble again.

0:13:54.440 --> 0:13:56.120
<v Speaker 1>So you know, I'm uh, you know, I do you know,

0:13:56.200 --> 0:13:59.840
<v Speaker 1>pray for you know, uh Wiggins. But before this even happened,

0:14:00.160 --> 0:14:01.240
<v Speaker 1>he wasn't doing shit anyway.

0:14:01.320 --> 0:14:01.920
<v Speaker 4>This is right.

0:14:02.440 --> 0:14:06.840
<v Speaker 1>So but for the most part, the team is done right.

0:14:07.120 --> 0:14:09.400
<v Speaker 1>You don't as we know it, Clay.

0:14:09.679 --> 0:14:12.040
<v Speaker 2>Clay could have a game here up there, and every

0:14:12.080 --> 0:14:14.839
<v Speaker 2>time he has one of that game, oh here comes Clay.

0:14:15.160 --> 0:14:17.560
<v Speaker 2>If he consummoners this, if he can do this, say

0:14:17.640 --> 0:14:20.400
<v Speaker 2>for the next thirty games. Hell, if he could, we

0:14:20.440 --> 0:14:22.320
<v Speaker 2>wouldn't be asking him to do it for the next

0:14:22.320 --> 0:14:24.440
<v Speaker 2>thirty game. It would be a given. When do we

0:14:24.480 --> 0:14:28.760
<v Speaker 2>ever before, when would we ever question Clay? We never

0:14:28.960 --> 0:14:31.440
<v Speaker 2>questioned Clay because we know what he was. We know

0:14:31.520 --> 0:14:33.240
<v Speaker 2>what he was gonna give us. He was gonna give

0:14:33.280 --> 0:14:35.640
<v Speaker 2>us somewhere between twenty and twenty five. He's gonna be

0:14:35.760 --> 0:14:38.160
<v Speaker 2>forty plus percent from the three point line, and he

0:14:38.240 --> 0:14:39.680
<v Speaker 2>wasn't gonna be We weren't gonna be out.

0:14:39.600 --> 0:14:41.440
<v Speaker 4>There on a hope and a prayer that he has

0:14:41.480 --> 0:14:42.120
<v Speaker 4>a great game.

0:14:42.360 --> 0:14:45.040
<v Speaker 2>There's a reason why he got He's a four time

0:14:45.800 --> 0:14:49.920
<v Speaker 2>NBA champion, he's an All Star and he's been relegated

0:14:49.960 --> 0:14:52.800
<v Speaker 2>to the bench because of it inconsistent play. And so

0:14:52.960 --> 0:14:55.480
<v Speaker 2>now you're gonna ask him to win. He gave you

0:14:55.520 --> 0:14:57.680
<v Speaker 2>thirty or he gives you thirty five. Man, if he

0:14:57.680 --> 0:14:59.440
<v Speaker 2>can just do it. If he could, he wouldn't be

0:14:59.480 --> 0:15:01.720
<v Speaker 2>on the bench. He wouldn't be coming off the bitch.

0:15:01.760 --> 0:15:05.200
<v Speaker 4>Gil. Now, I think it shows, you know, just for

0:15:05.440 --> 0:15:07.440
<v Speaker 4>just for just hoop fans out there, it.

0:15:07.400 --> 0:15:10.360
<v Speaker 1>Shows how fast you can lose confidence in yourself.

0:15:11.080 --> 0:15:13.280
<v Speaker 4>It's not like he does not shoot the same amount

0:15:13.280 --> 0:15:13.600
<v Speaker 4>of shocks.

0:15:13.640 --> 0:15:16.640
<v Speaker 1>To put in extra words saying it's the same routine,

0:15:16.720 --> 0:15:21.240
<v Speaker 1>same thing, the mental has changed. He's questioned his ability,

0:15:21.560 --> 0:15:23.080
<v Speaker 1>right if we don't know if it was a move,

0:15:23.560 --> 0:15:26.280
<v Speaker 1>something happened on the floor, something happened in the media,

0:15:26.360 --> 0:15:29.560
<v Speaker 1>something happened now. But he questioned his greatness, and you

0:15:29.640 --> 0:15:31.840
<v Speaker 1>can see the reflection, and you can see that it

0:15:31.880 --> 0:15:32.760
<v Speaker 1>hasn't came back.

0:15:32.960 --> 0:15:34.320
<v Speaker 4>Same thing that happened to Russ.

0:15:34.440 --> 0:15:37.760
<v Speaker 1>Russ went from averaging a triple double, came here, god booed,

0:15:37.880 --> 0:15:38.560
<v Speaker 1>and we never.

0:15:38.440 --> 0:15:40.960
<v Speaker 4>Seen in the same rust again. Right right, Yeah, you

0:15:41.040 --> 0:15:43.520
<v Speaker 4>get people we lose it, you know what I mean?

0:15:44.560 --> 0:15:45.040
<v Speaker 4>It does.

0:15:45.200 --> 0:15:46.920
<v Speaker 2>But I think the thing is people like, well, hey,

0:15:47.040 --> 0:15:50.160
<v Speaker 2>you see how Russ is playing. Well, look, Russ is

0:15:50.200 --> 0:15:53.080
<v Speaker 2>playing on a minimum contract. The numbers he's given you

0:15:53.120 --> 0:15:55.760
<v Speaker 2>on a minimum contract is fine. But when a guy's

0:15:55.760 --> 0:15:58.520
<v Speaker 2>making forty plus million dollars the number that he's given you,

0:15:58.720 --> 0:16:02.520
<v Speaker 2>that wasn't acceptable. I don't know why people don't understand that.

0:16:02.760 --> 0:16:05.640
<v Speaker 2>It's not like and Russ what Russ is a top

0:16:05.680 --> 0:16:08.360
<v Speaker 2>seventy five player, He's an All star, two time All

0:16:08.400 --> 0:16:10.760
<v Speaker 2>Star MVP, he's a League MVP.

0:16:11.800 --> 0:16:17.240
<v Speaker 4>His resume is complete. But let's not kid ourselves.

0:16:16.800 --> 0:16:19.280
<v Speaker 2>Because and he was willing to accept the role in

0:16:19.360 --> 0:16:22.000
<v Speaker 2>Click for the Clippers that he was never willing to

0:16:22.080 --> 0:16:24.480
<v Speaker 2>accept for the Laker. Hey on, they tried it. They

0:16:24.520 --> 0:16:25.960
<v Speaker 2>tried to get him to come off the bench, and

0:16:25.960 --> 0:16:28.720
<v Speaker 2>he was unaccepting up that role. But I guess because

0:16:28.760 --> 0:16:30.920
<v Speaker 2>he looked at him says, the guys that you want

0:16:30.960 --> 0:16:33.200
<v Speaker 2>me to come off the bench for aren't better than me,

0:16:33.400 --> 0:16:35.840
<v Speaker 2>That are starting fact, And so I guess he looked

0:16:35.880 --> 0:16:38.480
<v Speaker 2>at it, and so I guess he's looking at it like, Okay,

0:16:38.520 --> 0:16:40.520
<v Speaker 2>James Harden is better at this point in time.

0:16:40.920 --> 0:16:42.320
<v Speaker 4>James Hard is better than I am.

0:16:42.400 --> 0:16:44.480
<v Speaker 2>But I think Terrence Man, Terrence man ain't better than

0:16:44.960 --> 0:16:47.520
<v Speaker 2>is Terrence Man. I mean, he gives you more. He

0:16:47.560 --> 0:16:51.480
<v Speaker 2>can rebound, he could defend better than Russ. But Russ

0:16:51.960 --> 0:16:55.560
<v Speaker 2>didn't give the Lakers what he gave. But maybe it's price.

0:16:55.640 --> 0:16:58.360
<v Speaker 2>Maybe because we looked at what he's making forty plus

0:16:58.400 --> 0:17:01.640
<v Speaker 2>million dollars a year, you expected him to give you.

0:17:01.720 --> 0:17:03.280
<v Speaker 4>Twenty ten and eight.

0:17:03.920 --> 0:17:05.520
<v Speaker 2>But how are you gonna give you that because he's

0:17:05.520 --> 0:17:07.600
<v Speaker 2>not gonna get those shots because Lebron and Ad are

0:17:07.640 --> 0:17:08.520
<v Speaker 2>first and second option.

0:17:08.760 --> 0:17:10.680
<v Speaker 4>Na see. I think the problem when it came to

0:17:10.760 --> 0:17:11.360
<v Speaker 4>Russ is this.

0:17:11.800 --> 0:17:14.440
<v Speaker 1>You know, when he came here, right, he was expected

0:17:14.480 --> 0:17:19.760
<v Speaker 1>to be the third option, right, Lebron and Ad was

0:17:19.840 --> 0:17:23.560
<v Speaker 1>heard for most of that year. He played seventy seven games.

0:17:23.920 --> 0:17:26.560
<v Speaker 1>He was the only star out of the three that

0:17:26.800 --> 0:17:31.000
<v Speaker 1>really played and held the healthy tam up. And because

0:17:31.000 --> 0:17:33.560
<v Speaker 1>of that, he got the backlash because we wasn't gonna

0:17:33.560 --> 0:17:36.480
<v Speaker 1>say that about Lebron or Andy Davis because they were champions.

0:17:36.640 --> 0:17:38.600
<v Speaker 4>So we said, all right, we're gonna give it to you. Russ.

0:17:39.600 --> 0:17:41.560
<v Speaker 4>Him getting well what at home, the kind of really

0:17:41.640 --> 0:17:42.600
<v Speaker 4>was unfair to him.

0:17:43.240 --> 0:17:45.600
<v Speaker 2>But what if he'd gave us okay, he used to

0:17:45.600 --> 0:17:47.639
<v Speaker 2>be what if he'd gave us what he gave the

0:17:47.720 --> 0:17:51.600
<v Speaker 2>Thunder give us thirty a knight? Because you said he's

0:17:51.600 --> 0:17:54.439
<v Speaker 2>the number one option, so there's no Lebron, there's no

0:17:54.560 --> 0:17:58.040
<v Speaker 2>ad on most nights. How about he give us what

0:17:58.200 --> 0:18:02.160
<v Speaker 2>he gave Okac, Now there's your opportunity to give us

0:18:02.520 --> 0:18:03.840
<v Speaker 2>twenty eight thirty a night.

0:18:04.760 --> 0:18:07.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but that playbook is made That playbook was made

0:18:07.080 --> 0:18:07.440
<v Speaker 1>for him.

0:18:07.480 --> 0:18:08.960
<v Speaker 4>This playbook is not made for him.

0:18:09.240 --> 0:18:11.960
<v Speaker 1>Right, There's a lot of factors that factored in. And

0:18:12.200 --> 0:18:13.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, so the following year, he's the only one

0:18:14.040 --> 0:18:14.960
<v Speaker 1>that played seventy.

0:18:14.680 --> 0:18:17.600
<v Speaker 4>Seven, played well, played well. And then he said come

0:18:17.600 --> 0:18:20.640
<v Speaker 4>off the bench. And he's like to who, right, who?

0:18:20.760 --> 0:18:20.840
<v Speaker 1>Like?

0:18:21.200 --> 0:18:22.840
<v Speaker 4>Who you want me? I think that's the hardest thing

0:18:23.520 --> 0:18:25.680
<v Speaker 4>in the locker room that I don't know about. But

0:18:25.720 --> 0:18:27.359
<v Speaker 4>I'm not coming off the bench of these guys right.

0:18:27.200 --> 0:18:29.960
<v Speaker 1>Here, you know, so you know, coming to the Clippers,

0:18:30.480 --> 0:18:32.560
<v Speaker 1>it's not him or Terrence Man, it's him. And James

0:18:32.560 --> 0:18:37.119
<v Speaker 1>Harden's like, all right, with all of us out here.

0:18:37.000 --> 0:18:41.800
<v Speaker 4>We're a little too small. We need more movement. Okay, okay,

0:18:41.960 --> 0:18:43.800
<v Speaker 4>I do it? Take the back seat fellas he and

0:18:43.920 --> 0:18:45.680
<v Speaker 4>he did it. I mean, you know, it's like.

0:18:45.680 --> 0:18:50.000
<v Speaker 2>Hey, I don't know if tyl lu because of his accomplishments,

0:18:50.080 --> 0:18:52.560
<v Speaker 2>it's hard to let me thinking about it. Now, we're

0:18:52.560 --> 0:18:54.960
<v Speaker 2>talking about a guy that's the top seventy five. We

0:18:55.000 --> 0:18:56.920
<v Speaker 2>talk about a guy that's an MVP on an All

0:18:56.920 --> 0:19:01.080
<v Speaker 2>Star Game with all NBA player multiple times and you said, nah, bro,

0:19:01.119 --> 0:19:01.920
<v Speaker 2>you going to the bench?

0:19:02.640 --> 0:19:03.200
<v Speaker 4>He had you.

0:19:03.440 --> 0:19:05.400
<v Speaker 2>And I think the thing is he embraced the role.

0:19:05.440 --> 0:19:08.720
<v Speaker 2>He accepted the role. Give him credit. I wanted i'd

0:19:08.760 --> 0:19:10.199
<v Speaker 2>be the first because I did a good job of

0:19:10.240 --> 0:19:12.200
<v Speaker 2>beating him up because I didn't think he played well.

0:19:12.280 --> 0:19:14.960
<v Speaker 2>I thought he played okay. Everybody said eighteen seven and seven,

0:19:16.040 --> 0:19:18.920
<v Speaker 2>but for that's not I don't think the Lakers would

0:19:18.960 --> 0:19:20.520
<v Speaker 2>look out. I thought there was I think the Lakers

0:19:20.520 --> 0:19:22.960
<v Speaker 2>thought they were gonna get twenty plus. I think that's

0:19:22.960 --> 0:19:25.120
<v Speaker 2>what they thought they were gonna get.

0:19:24.920 --> 0:19:26.040
<v Speaker 4>No, you know what I mean.

0:19:26.080 --> 0:19:27.680
<v Speaker 1>It's one of those things where I don't think they

0:19:27.680 --> 0:19:29.720
<v Speaker 1>came into the season really normal that I knew it

0:19:29.760 --> 0:19:32.040
<v Speaker 1>was gonna be a clash because him and Bron played

0:19:32.040 --> 0:19:32.840
<v Speaker 1>the same stock.

0:19:33.560 --> 0:19:35.800
<v Speaker 4>I knew it wouldn't work. Oh, Jill I said, Jill.

0:19:35.840 --> 0:19:38.040
<v Speaker 2>I went on there and said, look, I'm sorry. You know, guys,

0:19:38.080 --> 0:19:39.640
<v Speaker 2>y'all know I feel about the Lakers, but it ain't

0:19:39.640 --> 0:19:40.000
<v Speaker 2>gonna work.

0:19:40.040 --> 0:19:41.800
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, it ain't. Yeah, you can.

0:19:42.080 --> 0:19:43.879
<v Speaker 2>Both guys need the ball in their hand to be

0:19:44.040 --> 0:19:47.840
<v Speaker 2>who they are, their absolute best. Both guys need the

0:19:47.840 --> 0:19:50.680
<v Speaker 2>ball in their hands. And you tell me the team

0:19:50.720 --> 0:19:52.720
<v Speaker 2>that Lebron James been on, and he ain't got the

0:19:52.760 --> 0:19:55.360
<v Speaker 2>ball in his hands eighty five ninety percent of the time.

0:19:55.480 --> 0:19:58.080
<v Speaker 1>And then that's why I always say he's the point guard.

0:19:58.920 --> 0:20:00.920
<v Speaker 1>You know, we we didn't to pretend that he's a

0:20:01.000 --> 0:20:04.000
<v Speaker 1>small ford. No, he's a point guard. He always yes,

0:20:04.200 --> 0:20:06.400
<v Speaker 1>the two guards with him is the two and the three.

0:20:07.119 --> 0:20:08.400
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, that road right?

0:20:08.440 --> 0:20:10.760
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, you know, Russell couldn't play traditional too, so

0:20:10.800 --> 0:20:13.840
<v Speaker 1>it kind of messed his game up, right, because in

0:20:13.960 --> 0:20:15.280
<v Speaker 1>order to play with Lebron, you're gonna have to be

0:20:15.320 --> 0:20:17.040
<v Speaker 1>able to shoot the ball because he's gonna have the ball.

0:20:17.400 --> 0:20:20.000
<v Speaker 2>So you making all the plays and doing what he did.

0:20:20.040 --> 0:20:22.840
<v Speaker 2>And let's just say and ok se, obviously it was

0:20:22.880 --> 0:20:25.320
<v Speaker 2>he and KD, but he was the playmaker. KD leaves

0:20:25.119 --> 0:20:28.080
<v Speaker 2>He's he's outstanding. He takes his game to another level.

0:20:28.640 --> 0:20:31.240
<v Speaker 2>Even with James Harden, he still found the way that

0:20:31.400 --> 0:20:35.800
<v Speaker 2>the average twenty five, twenty five and seven. It wasn't

0:20:35.800 --> 0:20:38.199
<v Speaker 2>like it wasn't like he was slouch in there and

0:20:38.320 --> 0:20:40.280
<v Speaker 2>James needed a ball And that was when James was

0:20:40.320 --> 0:20:43.960
<v Speaker 2>going crazy. That was that was James. That was James

0:20:44.000 --> 0:20:46.760
<v Speaker 2>Hard at his absolute peak. And then he goes to

0:20:46.880 --> 0:20:49.920
<v Speaker 2>Washington in that Averager triple double for a year. So

0:20:49.920 --> 0:20:56.520
<v Speaker 2>so for him, he like, don't I don't really wear hats,

0:20:56.560 --> 0:20:57.840
<v Speaker 2>but if I had, when I take my hat off

0:20:57.880 --> 0:21:02.360
<v Speaker 2>to it, because it's not easy to be as credentialed

0:21:03.000 --> 0:21:07.359
<v Speaker 2>as he is and accepting of a role when you believe,

0:21:08.359 --> 0:21:10.880
<v Speaker 2>and I believe Russ believed that he's a starter. Yeah

0:21:10.880 --> 0:21:14.399
<v Speaker 2>of course, but he says, you know what, this is

0:21:14.440 --> 0:21:16.760
<v Speaker 2>what's best for the team, and every a lot of.

0:21:16.800 --> 0:21:17.520
<v Speaker 4>A lot of gills.

0:21:17.560 --> 0:21:20.040
<v Speaker 2>Everybody can't do that. See everybody, you know this gill.

0:21:20.119 --> 0:21:22.720
<v Speaker 2>Everybody like, I just want to win, Yeah, but I

0:21:22.720 --> 0:21:26.920
<v Speaker 2>want to win my weight. I want to win it

0:21:26.920 --> 0:21:27.280
<v Speaker 2>my weight.

0:21:28.040 --> 0:21:31.080
<v Speaker 4>So that's so that's a caveat. I ain't gonna tell

0:21:31.119 --> 0:21:33.480
<v Speaker 4>you that. Man. I just want to be somewhere I

0:21:33.480 --> 0:21:36.480
<v Speaker 4>can win, yes, but I need to I.

0:21:36.400 --> 0:21:41.600
<v Speaker 1>Think that's between it, like where Russ is and where

0:21:41.680 --> 0:21:42.439
<v Speaker 1>Clay is is.

0:21:42.480 --> 0:21:43.440
<v Speaker 4>I think Clay.

0:21:43.280 --> 0:21:46.800
<v Speaker 1>Is where Russ was last year, or to okay with

0:21:46.840 --> 0:21:51.920
<v Speaker 1>the Lakers coming off the bench wasn't his idea, right,

0:21:52.000 --> 0:21:54.560
<v Speaker 1>This wasn't his idea. Oh I need to come. This

0:21:54.680 --> 0:21:58.080
<v Speaker 1>was the team's idea. So now he has to try

0:21:58.119 --> 0:22:05.840
<v Speaker 1>to try to accept this role. Right if I'm if

0:22:05.840 --> 0:22:10.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm the coach those last fifteen games, I really need

0:22:10.240 --> 0:22:13.160
<v Speaker 1>to sit back and think about the chess move here,

0:22:13.480 --> 0:22:17.800
<v Speaker 1>and the chess move here is do I shut Curry down?

0:22:17.960 --> 0:22:20.440
<v Speaker 1>Give him at sixty five games, but for the most

0:22:20.440 --> 0:22:21.400
<v Speaker 1>part shut him down.

0:22:21.560 --> 0:22:22.960
<v Speaker 4>Draymond shut down.

0:22:23.280 --> 0:22:28.000
<v Speaker 1>Claye Comminger, though, cause I need if I'm gonna bring

0:22:28.080 --> 0:22:33.359
<v Speaker 1>Clay back, I need Clay mentally focused, mentally prepared and

<v Speaker 1>ready for next season.

0:22:35.080 --> 0:22:37.040
<v Speaker 2>I ain't bringing it back at twenty four million. Yeil

0:22:37.640 --> 0:22:41.199
<v Speaker 2>what two year? Twenty four yoh? Yeah, know what I'm saying. No,

0:22:46.880 --> 0:22:50.920
<v Speaker 2>come on, already paid it. Already gave twenty million. I gave,

0:22:51.080 --> 0:22:53.240
<v Speaker 2>I gave, I paid it for what he did. Now

0:22:53.280 --> 0:22:55.000
<v Speaker 2>I gotta pay it for what I believe you're gonna do.

0:22:55.119 --> 0:22:57.159
<v Speaker 1>No, no, no, that's not how I work on No, this

0:22:57.240 --> 0:23:04.159
<v Speaker 1>ain't no hell no, hell no you paying me? You

0:23:04.320 --> 0:23:09.240
<v Speaker 1>paying me for what I did. That's how the NBA works, damn.

0:23:09.400 --> 0:23:11.560
<v Speaker 1>So when I get when I get drafted, when I

0:23:11.600 --> 0:23:15.440
<v Speaker 1>get drafted the number one pick, that's not what I'm doing.

0:23:15.520 --> 0:23:18.840
<v Speaker 1>That's what I did, what I did from elementary, junior, high,

0:23:18.960 --> 0:23:21.560
<v Speaker 1>high school, college, That's what I was rewarded for.

0:23:21.800 --> 0:23:24.240
<v Speaker 4>What I do. The next four years, I'm gonna get

0:23:24.240 --> 0:23:24.840
<v Speaker 4>the next deal.

0:23:25.040 --> 0:23:27.960
<v Speaker 1>So my contract right here is I got a championship,

0:23:28.040 --> 0:23:31.320
<v Speaker 1>then I twenty so I got hurt a couple of times.

0:23:31.520 --> 0:23:33.200
<v Speaker 4>So forty eight million is cool.

0:23:33.640 --> 0:23:35.720
<v Speaker 1>I think we get confused, somebody. It ain't about what

0:23:35.760 --> 0:23:39.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna do. Got damn because whatever I do moving forward,

0:23:40.359 --> 0:23:41.240
<v Speaker 1>my contract is.

0:23:41.240 --> 0:23:42.080
<v Speaker 4>Gonna reflunck it that.

0:23:43.560 --> 0:23:45.439
<v Speaker 2>Well I should have played I should I should have

0:23:45.440 --> 0:23:49.960
<v Speaker 2>played basketball in that damn she ain't had working football football.

0:23:49.960 --> 0:23:52.359
<v Speaker 2>Say look here, we already paid you. We paid you

0:23:52.440 --> 0:23:55.280
<v Speaker 2>for those Pro Bowls on All Pros or Super Bowl down.

0:23:56.160 --> 0:23:58.040
<v Speaker 2>What do I think you can give me over the

0:23:58.080 --> 0:24:00.959
<v Speaker 2>next two to three years that's going to jump justify

0:24:01.040 --> 0:24:03.120
<v Speaker 2>the compensation that you're seeking.

0:24:08.440 --> 0:24:09.919
<v Speaker 4>But back to the Celtics.

0:24:09.920 --> 0:24:12.639
<v Speaker 2>The Celtics have won their last five games by an

0:24:12.680 --> 0:24:15.080
<v Speaker 2>average of thirty point two points a game. And we

0:24:15.119 --> 0:24:18.679
<v Speaker 2>talked about last last week on First Take, and I said.

0:24:18.560 --> 0:24:20.800
<v Speaker 4>The Celtics are in a class by of their own

0:24:21.520 --> 0:24:22.880
<v Speaker 4>and Steven A. Perk Off.

0:24:24.400 --> 0:24:28.920
<v Speaker 2>Perk quick to say, man, you need to watch more games. Well,

0:24:28.960 --> 0:24:31.760
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what TV you got, but I want

0:24:31.760 --> 0:24:33.719
<v Speaker 2>to know who you think like right now, the way

0:24:33.760 --> 0:24:35.720
<v Speaker 2>they're playing. I'm talking about right now now when it

0:24:35.760 --> 0:24:37.800
<v Speaker 2>gets to the playoffs, all best of off. But the

0:24:37.880 --> 0:24:39.200
<v Speaker 2>question was right now.

0:24:39.119 --> 0:24:39.640
<v Speaker 4>And they are.

0:24:40.560 --> 0:24:44.800
<v Speaker 1>They're the only team right now playing like an NBA champion. Yes,

0:24:44.920 --> 0:24:47.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean from you know how Denver looked last year,

0:24:47.840 --> 0:24:50.800
<v Speaker 1>that's how That's how Boston looks right now.

0:24:51.119 --> 0:24:53.399
<v Speaker 2>Their c never looked like that last night against Lakers,

0:24:53.440 --> 0:24:56.880
<v Speaker 2>though they were looked like that last night against the Lakers,

0:24:56.960 --> 0:24:58.280
<v Speaker 2>especially in the thirty fourth quarter.

0:24:58.359 --> 0:24:58.560
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:24:58.600 --> 0:25:03.280
<v Speaker 1>So Boston's been playing fair, very very consistent, very dominant,

0:25:03.520 --> 0:25:04.000
<v Speaker 1>right they have.

0:25:04.320 --> 0:25:06.200
<v Speaker 4>They've been dominating teams.

0:25:06.600 --> 0:25:11.080
<v Speaker 1>Yes, so they're already in championship stride right Uh. The

0:25:11.080 --> 0:25:14.880
<v Speaker 1>rest of the field needs to catch up behind them,

0:25:14.880 --> 0:25:17.679
<v Speaker 1>will probably be Denver, you know, because champion and they

0:25:17.720 --> 0:25:19.120
<v Speaker 1>know when to turn it on and turn it off

0:25:20.400 --> 0:25:21.200
<v Speaker 1>and then from there.

0:25:21.600 --> 0:25:27.960
<v Speaker 2>To be honest, it's a roll of dice and gil.

0:25:28.240 --> 0:25:30.680
<v Speaker 2>That's why I say the Lakers, and look, I don't.

0:25:30.760 --> 0:25:31.440
<v Speaker 2>I don't feel that.

0:25:31.440 --> 0:25:31.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't.

0:25:31.720 --> 0:25:34.080
<v Speaker 2>I haven't seen anything from the Lakers that convinced me

0:25:34.200 --> 0:25:37.280
<v Speaker 2>they can beat Denver in a seven game series. But

0:25:37.359 --> 0:25:39.320
<v Speaker 2>everybody else in the West, the Lakers can be the

0:25:39.359 --> 0:25:40.080
<v Speaker 2>seven game series.

0:25:40.359 --> 0:25:42.440
<v Speaker 4>And that's what I'm saying, the seven game series.

0:25:43.080 --> 0:25:48.040
<v Speaker 2>Yes, the West is open that like you.

0:25:47.440 --> 0:25:49.840
<v Speaker 4>As a Laker fan, we don't want Denver. No, we

0:25:49.880 --> 0:25:52.720
<v Speaker 4>do not want no, hell no, not hell no.

0:25:52.720 --> 0:25:52.840
<v Speaker 1>No.

0:25:53.680 --> 0:25:55.879
<v Speaker 2>We gotta we gotta looking see okay dinner. They're in

0:25:55.880 --> 0:25:58.840
<v Speaker 2>the third part right now. So I actually I don't

0:25:58.840 --> 0:25:59.800
<v Speaker 2>want to be in the sixth spot.

0:26:00.280 --> 0:26:03.440
<v Speaker 4>I don't WoT that. Nah, you know you, somebody somebody

0:26:03.440 --> 0:26:05.439
<v Speaker 4>else left, somebody else deal with them. We want to

0:26:05.440 --> 0:26:07.800
<v Speaker 4>get Denver in the same place we got them last

0:26:07.800 --> 0:26:09.320
<v Speaker 4>in Western Conference.

0:26:08.880 --> 0:26:12.960
<v Speaker 1>Final, and hopefully that happened before we get to them.

0:26:13.400 --> 0:26:17.800
<v Speaker 1>Other than that, it's all placing right. Everyone's beatable in

0:26:17.880 --> 0:26:22.520
<v Speaker 1>the West besides Denver. You know, when when the way

0:26:22.520 --> 0:26:25.040
<v Speaker 1>the offense runs, the way they click as a unit.

0:26:25.359 --> 0:26:28.400
<v Speaker 4>You know, it clutched onbelieve they know what they're doing.

0:26:29.800 --> 0:26:32.040
<v Speaker 2>How many times, yo, did you with the clock running down,

0:26:32.280 --> 0:26:33.159
<v Speaker 2>go hit the shot?

0:26:33.400 --> 0:26:36.240
<v Speaker 4>He shooting from back here? How many times he gonna

0:26:36.240 --> 0:26:36.399
<v Speaker 4>do that?

0:26:36.440 --> 0:26:38.119
<v Speaker 2>We saw that three or four times last year in

0:26:38.119 --> 0:26:39.880
<v Speaker 2>the Western Conference Finals gainst the Lakers.

0:26:40.000 --> 0:26:43.080
<v Speaker 4>But he gil, you got to explain to him, Look,

0:26:43.280 --> 0:26:43.960
<v Speaker 4>this is what we know.

0:26:44.160 --> 0:26:47.080
<v Speaker 2>And maybe there's some a little correlation, a little carryover

0:26:47.119 --> 0:26:51.080
<v Speaker 2>between the NBA and in an NFL. If you give

0:26:51.119 --> 0:26:58.320
<v Speaker 2>a quarterback a steady diet of anything, he'll eat it up. Yeah,

0:26:58.440 --> 0:27:00.560
<v Speaker 2>I don't know why. Okay, you said, you know what,

0:27:00.600 --> 0:27:03.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna throw him a curveball. I'm gonna start ruin.

0:27:03.359 --> 0:27:06.960
<v Speaker 2>Oh yo, kids, but you're gonna do that, damn near

0:27:07.000 --> 0:27:09.160
<v Speaker 2>the whole game. And you don't think that man gonna

0:27:09.160 --> 0:27:11.240
<v Speaker 2>figure it out. He gonna get down to that block,

0:27:11.480 --> 0:27:14.040
<v Speaker 2>he gonna walk him back and then hey, he gonna

0:27:14.040 --> 0:27:16.159
<v Speaker 2>pump fake and did he go up and on either.

0:27:16.080 --> 0:27:19.199
<v Speaker 4>Left or right? You know what makes you know? What

0:27:19.359 --> 0:27:20.520
<v Speaker 4>makes your kidch good?

0:27:21.840 --> 0:27:26.720
<v Speaker 1>And because one, he's a team he's a team guy. Yes,

0:27:27.000 --> 0:27:29.399
<v Speaker 1>So the fact that he's a team guy, his first

0:27:29.440 --> 0:27:33.600
<v Speaker 1>instinct is the past. Yeah, because he is a dominant

0:27:33.600 --> 0:27:37.040
<v Speaker 1>big down low with the posts moves. He can be

0:27:37.080 --> 0:27:40.479
<v Speaker 1>selfish too, So if he if he wanted to score fifty,

0:27:41.080 --> 0:27:43.280
<v Speaker 1>there's no one really gonna stop him.

0:27:43.520 --> 0:27:46.000
<v Speaker 4>No, no one's gonna stop him from scoring fifty.

0:27:46.400 --> 0:27:50.040
<v Speaker 1>So when we're looking at his stats, and he is

0:27:50.080 --> 0:27:53.199
<v Speaker 1>really playing games with everybody, and that's the thing that

0:27:53.560 --> 0:27:56.400
<v Speaker 1>because he is smart enough to understand, I'm gonna throw

0:27:56.400 --> 0:27:58.280
<v Speaker 1>some passes here, I'm gonna do a little bit of

0:27:58.280 --> 0:28:01.679
<v Speaker 1>scoring here, it's really hard to figure out which mode is.

0:28:01.840 --> 0:28:05.200
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna really have to go to analytics to see

0:28:05.240 --> 0:28:08.679
<v Speaker 1>what time he tries to score when he likes to pass.

0:28:09.080 --> 0:28:12.520
<v Speaker 1>Other than that, if you're just playing him naturally, you're

0:28:12.560 --> 0:28:14.760
<v Speaker 1>you're just You're just He's just a puppet master with you.

0:28:14.920 --> 0:28:17.000
<v Speaker 1>He's just sitting there, just sitting here doing this. He's

0:28:17.119 --> 0:28:20.000
<v Speaker 1>he's you Pinocchio, and he's the the the the doc

0:28:20.080 --> 0:28:22.239
<v Speaker 1>on your pedal time. Yeah, yeah, yeah, And that's what

0:28:22.280 --> 0:28:26.720
<v Speaker 1>he's doing with everybody. I think, and and look, and

0:28:27.840 --> 0:28:29.920
<v Speaker 1>I didn't expect Michael Porter the first guy to take

0:28:29.920 --> 0:28:33.399
<v Speaker 1>attim the least ten shots, shoot one hundred percent attim

0:28:33.480 --> 0:28:35.040
<v Speaker 1>the least five threes shoot.

0:28:34.800 --> 0:28:37.520
<v Speaker 4>One hundred percent. Hue free throws and shoot one hundred percent.

0:28:37.680 --> 0:28:39.400
<v Speaker 2>He's the first guy in NBA history to have that

0:28:39.440 --> 0:28:40.560
<v Speaker 2>stat line.

0:28:41.600 --> 0:28:45.840
<v Speaker 4>That's impressive. That's very impressive. Uh. The most impressive thing

0:28:45.880 --> 0:28:47.040
<v Speaker 4>from Michael porter Drew.

0:28:47.160 --> 0:28:51.480
<v Speaker 1>He had four a sis stop he passed he had

0:28:51.680 --> 0:28:56.800
<v Speaker 1>four this yes, no, what what he passed us? That's

0:28:56.880 --> 0:28:59.640
<v Speaker 1>one man that you know. Once it touched his hands

0:28:59.800 --> 0:29:01.640
<v Speaker 1>and was going up. So when I looked at the

0:29:01.680 --> 0:29:04.440
<v Speaker 1>state line, I said, Forward says, oh man, he was

0:29:04.480 --> 0:29:05.040
<v Speaker 1>on fire.

0:29:06.000 --> 0:29:08.280
<v Speaker 2>He was on fire and U And the thing was

0:29:08.400 --> 0:29:10.400
<v Speaker 2>is that when the Lakers had a run was going

0:29:10.440 --> 0:29:13.040
<v Speaker 2>in the first, he kept him close because he was

0:29:13.120 --> 0:29:15.240
<v Speaker 2>just coming down, letting them threes go where the Lakers

0:29:15.240 --> 0:29:18.400
<v Speaker 2>could have probably built a fifteen to twenty point lead.

0:29:19.160 --> 0:29:22.400
<v Speaker 2>Every time they got double digits, he boomed back to eight.

0:29:22.960 --> 0:29:25.040
<v Speaker 2>They get up to fourteen, boom, boom, boom, and now

0:29:25.040 --> 0:29:27.000
<v Speaker 2>he hit five quick points and now he's back down

0:29:27.040 --> 0:29:27.960
<v Speaker 2>to a nine point game.

0:29:28.240 --> 0:29:29.480
<v Speaker 4>So he kept them attacked.

0:29:29.840 --> 0:29:32.160
<v Speaker 2>And then in the third he picked right up where

0:29:32.160 --> 0:29:35.120
<v Speaker 2>he left off in the first half. Now yo gets

0:29:35.120 --> 0:29:37.160
<v Speaker 2>it go and now he says, okay, now it's time

0:29:37.200 --> 0:29:39.480
<v Speaker 2>for me to cert myself and then in the fourth

0:29:40.320 --> 0:29:42.960
<v Speaker 2>you get Murray. Now they go to the two man game.

0:29:43.560 --> 0:29:45.640
<v Speaker 2>Now they're about to pick and roll you. Now Murray's

0:29:45.680 --> 0:29:47.400
<v Speaker 2>from the dragon pull you. He fin the go and

0:29:47.520 --> 0:29:50.640
<v Speaker 2>come bobo bop.

0:29:50.760 --> 0:29:52.840
<v Speaker 4>And now all of a sudden, he come yo doing

0:29:52.920 --> 0:29:53.800
<v Speaker 4>all this and he goes.

0:29:54.000 --> 0:29:56.280
<v Speaker 2>He lobbed at the Gordon and then Gordon hits a three,

0:29:56.480 --> 0:29:59.480
<v Speaker 2>and then Murray and then a porter hits another three.

0:30:00.160 --> 0:30:04.240
<v Speaker 2>That they execute so well because down down the stretch

0:30:05.160 --> 0:30:08.000
<v Speaker 2>there is nothing that they can't get because of yoke.

0:30:08.920 --> 0:30:11.200
<v Speaker 4>You come with the double team. He sees it.

0:30:11.400 --> 0:30:13.560
<v Speaker 2>He's gonna kick the open guy. Now it's just a

0:30:13.600 --> 0:30:16.680
<v Speaker 2>matter of they knock it down or not. Now Murray says, okay,

0:30:16.880 --> 0:30:18.800
<v Speaker 2>you and I go to the pick and roll the

0:30:18.920 --> 0:30:23.080
<v Speaker 2>dribble handoff you know, uh he yoke roll to the

0:30:23.120 --> 0:30:26.320
<v Speaker 2>basket or Murray Keasey goes all the way to the basket. Yo,

0:30:26.400 --> 0:30:30.200
<v Speaker 2>can pomp? I mean, so you're kind of at the mercy.

0:30:30.720 --> 0:30:32.480
<v Speaker 2>It's just like man, I sure hope they off the

0:30:32.560 --> 0:30:36.360
<v Speaker 2>night and they're missing shot because they're not. With the

0:30:36.400 --> 0:30:38.160
<v Speaker 2>way he's playing and the way he can pass the

0:30:38.200 --> 0:30:39.120
<v Speaker 2>ball and see the floor.

0:30:40.080 --> 0:30:41.200
<v Speaker 4>What you gonna do? You know?

0:30:41.280 --> 0:30:43.000
<v Speaker 1>When when when you're talking about the last four or

0:30:43.000 --> 0:30:44.400
<v Speaker 1>five minutes with them, and that's where the.

0:30:44.440 --> 0:30:45.080
<v Speaker 4>Lakers lost it.

0:30:45.080 --> 0:30:47.960
<v Speaker 1>They lost it in the last yes, because they're playing

0:30:48.080 --> 0:30:51.479
<v Speaker 1>team basketball in the last three minutes, right, they're picking

0:30:51.560 --> 0:30:54.280
<v Speaker 1>the bat. We know what the Laker's gonna do. Lebron's

0:30:54.280 --> 0:30:56.120
<v Speaker 1>gonna come. He gonna set a pick and roll, try

0:30:56.160 --> 0:30:58.080
<v Speaker 1>to get the ISO. Maybe look at his hand a

0:30:58.080 --> 0:30:58.360
<v Speaker 1>couple of.

0:30:58.320 --> 0:31:00.440
<v Speaker 4>Times, hit the Michael Jackson glove and then he gonna

0:31:00.440 --> 0:31:04.040
<v Speaker 4>shoot the three or try to move off that. Now

0:31:04.600 --> 0:31:06.560
<v Speaker 4>Lebron himself has to play perfect.

0:31:06.680 --> 0:31:09.840
<v Speaker 1>You have to make yes, yes, seventy percent of your

0:31:09.840 --> 0:31:12.080
<v Speaker 1>shots in the last five minutes. Well, when it comes

0:31:12.120 --> 0:31:16.280
<v Speaker 1>to Denver, Jokis can go one for one but have

0:31:16.400 --> 0:31:17.720
<v Speaker 1>five assists.

0:31:17.720 --> 0:31:20.560
<v Speaker 4>Correct in that last five minutes, Murray can be four

0:31:20.600 --> 0:31:21.080
<v Speaker 4>for five.

0:31:22.800 --> 0:31:26.840
<v Speaker 1>You got we got three offensive rebounds and putbacks. So

0:31:27.160 --> 0:31:29.880
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to the last five minutes, they're all

0:31:30.000 --> 0:31:38.120
<v Speaker 1>playing together and doing what they do best, crashing the boards, diving, slashing, popping, rolling,

0:31:38.640 --> 0:31:41.800
<v Speaker 1>hosting up, getting to the free throw line, and it's it's.

0:31:41.680 --> 0:31:44.000
<v Speaker 4>Really beautiful basketball. I'm not even gonna lie. When it

0:31:44.000 --> 0:31:49.360
<v Speaker 4>comes to you have to think Calvin booth like he

0:31:49.520 --> 0:31:50.120
<v Speaker 4>was on my team.

0:31:50.200 --> 0:31:52.680
<v Speaker 1>We used to talk basketball, we used to talk strategy,

0:31:53.160 --> 0:31:56.200
<v Speaker 1>and when you look at the lineup.

0:31:56.040 --> 0:31:59.640
<v Speaker 4>It is how he thought the game. He thought the game.

0:31:59.440 --> 0:32:02.040
<v Speaker 1>From this aspect, and you can't see it play out

0:32:02.200 --> 0:32:03.360
<v Speaker 1>very well.

0:32:03.440 --> 0:32:06.080
<v Speaker 2>Right, it's just uh. And the guy that guys played

0:32:06.360 --> 0:32:07.560
<v Speaker 2>played very very well.

0:32:08.000 --> 0:32:08.120
<v Speaker 1>Uh.

0:32:08.160 --> 0:32:10.000
<v Speaker 2>They needed a little bit more from a d Ad

0:32:10.160 --> 0:32:12.680
<v Speaker 2>only had seventeen points. He missed some easy he missed

0:32:12.720 --> 0:32:14.760
<v Speaker 2>some easy with last night. But I can't even beat

0:32:14.760 --> 0:32:17.440
<v Speaker 2>a d up because AD has been playing unbelievable. I

0:32:17.520 --> 0:32:20.920
<v Speaker 2>just didn't like Darvin Ham's rotation last night. I don't

0:32:20.920 --> 0:32:22.880
<v Speaker 2>know why you benched d Low. The man has he

0:32:22.960 --> 0:32:25.120
<v Speaker 2>had a little offshooting night, So now you're gonna send

0:32:25.160 --> 0:32:25.680
<v Speaker 2>him to the bench.

0:32:25.760 --> 0:32:26.560
<v Speaker 4>Yeah damn.

0:32:26.680 --> 0:32:28.400
<v Speaker 2>I mean what about all all the night that he

0:32:28.480 --> 0:32:30.720
<v Speaker 2>been averaging like twenty five.

0:32:31.240 --> 0:32:32.320
<v Speaker 4>And so now he has one.

0:32:32.400 --> 0:32:34.280
<v Speaker 2>He had a little stretch, He goes like five minutes,

0:32:34.320 --> 0:32:36.560
<v Speaker 2>he doesn't hit any three. He had a couple of lipouts,

0:32:38.320 --> 0:32:40.760
<v Speaker 2>Like come on, bro, this is the problem.

0:32:40.960 --> 0:32:46.680
<v Speaker 1>You put him on the bench for who cam the

0:32:46.760 --> 0:32:48.000
<v Speaker 1>nineteen minutes three shots?

0:32:48.040 --> 0:32:50.120
<v Speaker 2>Come on, I might as well put de Loo in.

0:32:50.800 --> 0:32:53.800
<v Speaker 2>But right, and and it wasn't like he was stopping Murray.

0:32:54.200 --> 0:32:56.520
<v Speaker 2>So I can I can leave you in. I could

0:32:56.520 --> 0:32:59.320
<v Speaker 2>take d Low out if you're got a neutralized Murray.

0:32:59.640 --> 0:33:02.120
<v Speaker 2>But if Murray's getting whatever you want, hell, I can

0:33:02.160 --> 0:33:04.280
<v Speaker 2>put d Loe in because Delo's gonna at least gonna

0:33:04.280 --> 0:33:05.600
<v Speaker 2>give me something on the opposite end.

0:33:05.800 --> 0:33:08.160
<v Speaker 1>And that's all that. When I'm playing Denver, that's all

0:33:08.200 --> 0:33:10.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm thinking. See, I think they get wrapped up into

0:33:10.840 --> 0:33:13.600
<v Speaker 1>we have to stop them. Well, the problem with this

0:33:13.760 --> 0:33:16.080
<v Speaker 1>is this is not an individual stop.

0:33:16.440 --> 0:33:17.640
<v Speaker 4>This is team defense.

0:33:17.760 --> 0:33:22.960
<v Speaker 1>So that means Cam Prince, they have no they have

0:33:23.160 --> 0:33:25.800
<v Speaker 1>no skin in this part of the game. Right, So

0:33:26.680 --> 0:33:31.880
<v Speaker 1>Denver's thinking offense, right, you have to think matching it

0:33:32.240 --> 0:33:38.120
<v Speaker 1>because who's a great defensive player on On Denver, no

0:33:38.160 --> 0:33:39.720
<v Speaker 1>one ever talks about their defense.

0:33:40.680 --> 0:33:44.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean kcp is they're really their guy, and

0:33:44.640 --> 0:33:48.000
<v Speaker 2>bron the guy out of Kansas. But they play. Yeah,

0:33:48.120 --> 0:33:51.360
<v Speaker 2>but they don't have Jok is not a shop blocker.

0:33:51.400 --> 0:33:53.640
<v Speaker 2>He's a deflector. He's gonna use his hands. He's gonna

0:33:53.720 --> 0:33:55.240
<v Speaker 2>kick a lot of balls. He gonna get his hand

0:33:55.280 --> 0:33:57.520
<v Speaker 2>and deflect some balls. But other than that, they don't

0:33:57.560 --> 0:34:01.200
<v Speaker 2>have guys that can guard they don't have perimeter defenders

0:34:01.360 --> 0:34:03.360
<v Speaker 2>like a like a PG in his prime or like

0:34:03.400 --> 0:34:06.520
<v Speaker 2>a Kawhi. They don't have those type of guys Lebron

0:34:06.640 --> 0:34:09.080
<v Speaker 2>Kobe God that could sit sit in the chair.

0:34:09.640 --> 0:34:11.319
<v Speaker 4>They don't have They don't have guys like that.

0:34:11.880 --> 0:34:15.680
<v Speaker 2>But but they got guys that say, you know what,

0:34:17.239 --> 0:34:23.320
<v Speaker 2>we'll take our offensive guys, Yoke Murray, uh Porter Junior,

0:34:24.080 --> 0:34:27.879
<v Speaker 2>we'll take our big three and although we might give

0:34:27.960 --> 0:34:31.400
<v Speaker 2>up something as far as lateral quickness, we're gonna punish

0:34:31.400 --> 0:34:32.160
<v Speaker 2>you on the offensive end.

0:34:32.200 --> 0:34:34.359
<v Speaker 4>So you bet not miss Yeah. And that's a thing.

0:34:35.360 --> 0:34:38.960
<v Speaker 1>They're going offense, which they know, well, you're gonna go defense,

0:34:38.960 --> 0:34:40.160
<v Speaker 1>so you're gonna take away half of.

0:34:40.160 --> 0:34:42.160
<v Speaker 4>Your points anyway, right, you know.

0:34:42.200 --> 0:34:44.160
<v Speaker 1>And that's the thing I've been trying to preach to

0:34:44.200 --> 0:34:47.440
<v Speaker 1>some of these guys, like those days of having that

0:34:47.520 --> 0:34:50.279
<v Speaker 1>offensive that defensive guy in that can't score is really

0:34:50.280 --> 0:34:51.160
<v Speaker 1>a liability.

0:34:51.840 --> 0:34:54.320
<v Speaker 4>Right. Look at look at what Goden State tried.

0:34:54.760 --> 0:34:59.040
<v Speaker 1>They tried to sag and sit back on three hundred

0:34:59.040 --> 0:34:59.880
<v Speaker 1>and fifty million.

0:35:01.360 --> 0:35:02.000
<v Speaker 4>What the hell you?

0:35:02.000 --> 0:35:04.440
<v Speaker 1>Then they're gonna do the Prince and what's the name

0:35:04.440 --> 0:35:07.160
<v Speaker 1>they gonna they're not gonna respect them. So the fact

0:35:07.160 --> 0:35:10.440
<v Speaker 1>that they tried it with Jalen Brown. You need to

0:35:10.440 --> 0:35:13.440
<v Speaker 1>put offense in the tax to tax these butts out here.

0:35:14.120 --> 0:35:15.640
<v Speaker 4>Yeah. Uh.

0:35:15.880 --> 0:35:18.520
<v Speaker 2>Perkins demands that the Lakers build a statue for Lebron.

0:35:18.600 --> 0:35:20.719
<v Speaker 2>I mean, get ready to start scooping the statue for

0:35:20.840 --> 0:35:22.799
<v Speaker 2>Lebron outside Crypto dot com.

0:35:22.800 --> 0:35:25.080
<v Speaker 4>Marena, that's what, okay, forty.

0:35:24.840 --> 0:35:27.839
<v Speaker 2>Thousand points done in the Laker uniform, passing Marene, when

0:35:27.840 --> 0:35:29.880
<v Speaker 2>he passed him up in the Lakers uniform, winning an

0:35:29.960 --> 0:35:32.000
<v Speaker 2>NBA championship in the Lakers uniform?

0:35:32.200 --> 0:35:33.520
<v Speaker 4>What else can I say about the man?

0:35:34.160 --> 0:35:37.040
<v Speaker 2>Lebron also admits that the Lakers the Nuggets have their

0:35:37.120 --> 0:35:40.799
<v Speaker 2>number and are the So I'm gonna ask you, do

0:35:40.880 --> 0:35:42.839
<v Speaker 2>you believe the Nuggets are the first of all, let's

0:35:42.840 --> 0:35:45.560
<v Speaker 2>get to what Perk said. Do you believe the Lakers

0:35:45.560 --> 0:35:48.080
<v Speaker 2>will build a statue for Lebron if.

0:35:47.960 --> 0:35:49.960
<v Speaker 4>His career started right now? Hell on now?

0:35:51.320 --> 0:35:54.800
<v Speaker 1>No, he don't have enough. He don't have enough accolades

0:35:54.840 --> 0:35:59.360
<v Speaker 1>in the Laker uniform right this ain't this needs another title? Yeah,

0:36:00.200 --> 0:36:03.839
<v Speaker 1>you need years. He's only played six years. The closest,

0:36:04.160 --> 0:36:07.800
<v Speaker 1>the closest statue we have with that was with Shack

0:36:09.200 --> 0:36:12.279
<v Speaker 1>Shack eight years was that four rings, no, three ring,

0:36:12.360 --> 0:36:14.960
<v Speaker 1>three years, thirteen thousand points.

0:36:15.280 --> 0:36:16.800
<v Speaker 4>That's the bottom. That's our worst.

0:36:18.080 --> 0:36:20.200
<v Speaker 1>That's the worst when it comes to real accolades with

0:36:20.640 --> 0:36:21.280
<v Speaker 1>that statue.

0:36:21.360 --> 0:36:24.600
<v Speaker 4>So you know, everybody else thirteen fourteen.

0:36:24.480 --> 0:36:27.520
<v Speaker 1>Something years, right, you know, So it's gonna be hard

0:36:27.560 --> 0:36:30.840
<v Speaker 1>to put him in there with six years, eight thousand points,

0:36:31.000 --> 0:36:36.319
<v Speaker 1>one championship, I mean six, six All Stars, five All

0:36:36.440 --> 0:36:38.200
<v Speaker 1>NBA because we ain't finished this season.

0:36:38.600 --> 0:36:40.760
<v Speaker 4>That's not good. That's not good enough for a statue

0:36:40.760 --> 0:36:47.040
<v Speaker 4>in Los Angeles? Right? Are the Nuggets no dangerous? They

0:36:47.080 --> 0:36:48.600
<v Speaker 4>can just put his shoes. They can just start with

0:36:48.640 --> 0:36:51.799
<v Speaker 4>the shoes out there. They could just start with.

0:36:51.800 --> 0:36:55.040
<v Speaker 1>The bronze out there? Are the Nuggets the most dangerous

0:36:55.040 --> 0:36:55.760
<v Speaker 1>team in the West?

0:36:55.880 --> 0:36:56.799
<v Speaker 4>If not? Who is?

0:36:57.360 --> 0:37:04.480
<v Speaker 1>Yes, the most thing? Ooh, the most Okay, that's tricky.

0:37:04.920 --> 0:37:08.040
<v Speaker 1>The most dangerous team is the Clippers because they got

0:37:08.320 --> 0:37:14.359
<v Speaker 1>they got on two, three, four Hall of famers, four

0:37:14.440 --> 0:37:16.759
<v Speaker 1>guys who can average or who can score thirty at

0:37:16.760 --> 0:37:21.040
<v Speaker 1>any moment. They are the most dangerous team. You talk

0:37:21.040 --> 0:37:23.399
<v Speaker 1>about the Clippers, The Clippers are the most I'm sorry,

0:37:23.760 --> 0:37:28.080
<v Speaker 1>the Clippers. They are the most dangerous team due to

0:37:28.160 --> 0:37:32.080
<v Speaker 1>the fact that they have a lot of firepower, not

0:37:32.160 --> 0:37:34.879
<v Speaker 1>saying they can all fire the weapons at the same time,

0:37:34.920 --> 0:37:39.560
<v Speaker 1>but they have the most firepower. The most consistent team,

0:37:39.640 --> 0:37:41.280
<v Speaker 1>the most reliable team is Denver.

0:37:42.600 --> 0:37:45.080
<v Speaker 4>See the thing was, I think hurt the Clippers.

0:37:46.040 --> 0:37:49.520
<v Speaker 2>Jogics would literally average forty twenty and fifteen because they

0:37:49.520 --> 0:37:50.759
<v Speaker 2>got nobody can do anything with you.

0:37:51.800 --> 0:37:55.040
<v Speaker 4>I'm telling about nothing, plumb le zubox. He's follow them out.

0:37:56.520 --> 0:37:59.160
<v Speaker 2>And so now the Nuggets already have competence because they've

0:37:59.160 --> 0:38:02.480
<v Speaker 2>traced this team down now minus Harden, they've chased this

0:38:02.560 --> 0:38:06.640
<v Speaker 2>team down from three to one. And Murray, I don't

0:38:06.680 --> 0:38:08.960
<v Speaker 2>know what it is about the Clippers, but here and no,

0:38:09.320 --> 0:38:12.319
<v Speaker 2>Porter Junior love playing the Clippers because he said they

0:38:12.440 --> 0:38:15.359
<v Speaker 2>passed on him. They flunked him because of that back,

0:38:15.719 --> 0:38:18.640
<v Speaker 2>and he's been punishing them. And I believe he's better

0:38:18.920 --> 0:38:21.320
<v Speaker 2>now than he was then when he started, when he

0:38:21.360 --> 0:38:21.920
<v Speaker 2>got hot.

0:38:22.000 --> 0:38:23.680
<v Speaker 4>And we know what Murray did. I think the final

0:38:23.719 --> 0:38:24.920
<v Speaker 4>game he dropped forty on him.

0:38:24.960 --> 0:38:27.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, in that in that game, in that game seven

0:38:27.480 --> 0:38:30.680
<v Speaker 2>and so like I said with yok and no, you

0:38:30.880 --> 0:38:33.840
<v Speaker 2>gotta have somebody. Look, you not gonna stop him, but

0:38:33.880 --> 0:38:36.239
<v Speaker 2>you damn sure better have Somebody's gonna give you twenty five.

0:38:37.520 --> 0:38:39.840
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, you know with them, man, it's it's it's just

0:38:40.280 --> 0:38:43.040
<v Speaker 4>you have to match the production. Just Yeah.

0:38:43.239 --> 0:38:46.600
<v Speaker 1>At this point, like Zubac, like for for the Clippers

0:38:46.600 --> 0:38:50.520
<v Speaker 1>who win this, Zubach has to be playing at a

0:38:50.560 --> 0:38:51.080
<v Speaker 1>good level.

0:38:51.120 --> 0:38:55.279
<v Speaker 4>Like I'm Zubac has to average fifteen to.

0:38:55.320 --> 0:38:58.800
<v Speaker 1>Nineteen points in that series, you average fifty. If Zubac

0:38:58.840 --> 0:39:03.600
<v Speaker 1>can average fifteen nineteen that series, we know yokis just

0:39:03.600 --> 0:39:08.360
<v Speaker 1>gonna have anywhere from forty to fifty three all together.

0:39:08.719 --> 0:39:14.280
<v Speaker 1>So if if the Zuba can get around thirty, Clippers

0:39:14.280 --> 0:39:17.040
<v Speaker 1>got a really good chance. Yes, And then you throw

0:39:17.080 --> 0:39:20.160
<v Speaker 1>Plumbly in there. Yeah, if plumbly, because here's the thing.

0:39:20.239 --> 0:39:22.760
<v Speaker 1>What cost the Lakers. Lakers been getting crushed in the glass.

0:39:22.840 --> 0:39:25.600
<v Speaker 1>The Nuggets wipe them on the glass.

0:39:25.680 --> 0:39:27.880
<v Speaker 2>And for a team that has Anthony Davis and Lebron

0:39:27.920 --> 0:39:30.160
<v Speaker 2>and some guys can rebound it, they've been getting out

0:39:30.200 --> 0:39:36.120
<v Speaker 2>rebounded lately. Yeah, and no rings, no rebounds, no rings.

0:39:35.960 --> 0:39:38.319
<v Speaker 2>That's because now you give teams second chance, You give

0:39:38.400 --> 0:39:40.880
<v Speaker 2>teams another crack at the basket at you and some

0:39:41.120 --> 0:39:43.000
<v Speaker 2>a lot of times that might end up in a three.

0:39:43.120 --> 0:39:43.319
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:39:43.440 --> 0:39:50.160
<v Speaker 2>So you look at Lebron's accomplishments in the Lakers uniform.

0:39:51.320 --> 0:39:55.920
<v Speaker 2>His forty fivesands point game lost to the Nuggets, the

0:39:56.000 --> 0:39:58.759
<v Speaker 2>statue and veiling game between two to twenty four game

0:39:59.400 --> 0:40:02.120
<v Speaker 2>lost to the Nuggets. The game in which he passed

0:40:02.160 --> 0:40:06.000
<v Speaker 2>Kareem lost to the Thunder. I was at that game. Actually,

0:40:06.040 --> 0:40:08.759
<v Speaker 2>I was supposed to be at that game Saturday night,

0:40:09.239 --> 0:40:12.359
<v Speaker 2>but I was in Jersey for the Portie Ain't doing

0:40:12.360 --> 0:40:15.760
<v Speaker 2>some stuff and they lost to the Sixers. When Lebron

0:40:15.840 --> 0:40:19.759
<v Speaker 2>passed Kobe most of his points in this game, you.

0:40:19.800 --> 0:40:25.200
<v Speaker 4>Try what you're trying to say, Hey, hey, we got

0:40:25.200 --> 0:40:28.359
<v Speaker 4>no more we ain't got no more comedic g I'm

0:40:28.400 --> 0:40:30.240
<v Speaker 4>gonna say the next accomplis stream.

0:40:30.480 --> 0:40:32.040
<v Speaker 2>I gotta take the other team. So you trying to

0:40:32.080 --> 0:40:36.040
<v Speaker 2>tell me, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I will break that partly.

0:40:36.520 --> 0:40:39.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean, there's an outside chance he could get to

0:40:39.600 --> 0:40:43.520
<v Speaker 2>eleven thousand assists. Uh what did he got like twenty

0:40:43.560 --> 0:40:43.960
<v Speaker 2>games to go?

0:40:44.200 --> 0:40:45.320
<v Speaker 4>Yeah? What do you?

0:40:45.400 --> 0:40:46.840
<v Speaker 2>And I think I don't know, he might not get it.

0:40:46.880 --> 0:40:48.600
<v Speaker 2>I think he's about think he's about one hundred and

0:40:48.600 --> 0:40:51.080
<v Speaker 2>sixty something. So he was literally after average like eight

0:40:51.080 --> 0:40:53.560
<v Speaker 2>and a half assist the game, which is popular. You

0:40:53.640 --> 0:40:56.759
<v Speaker 2>never say what he can't do yeah, because he'll go

0:40:56.760 --> 0:40:58.839
<v Speaker 2>to the streak and the average ten assist the game.

0:40:59.000 --> 0:41:02.200
<v Speaker 1>Yea that he that he's only you know, a certain

0:41:02.200 --> 0:41:04.440
<v Speaker 1>amount of way he's going to Yes, deemon, time to

0:41:04.440 --> 0:41:04.719
<v Speaker 1>get that.

0:41:05.680 --> 0:41:08.239
<v Speaker 4>Yeah. Uh, Gil, you had.

0:41:08.200 --> 0:41:10.840
<v Speaker 2>A hot take this weekend. You were trending you blame

0:41:10.920 --> 0:41:15.080
<v Speaker 2>the European players for bad defense in the NBA, and

0:41:15.120 --> 0:41:18.239
<v Speaker 2>it went virals. If you stand by your comments that

0:41:18.320 --> 0:41:24.239
<v Speaker 2>the European players are the blame for that, because Wemby says, hey,

0:41:24.280 --> 0:41:25.400
<v Speaker 2>Gill live it, how at your right?

0:41:25.480 --> 0:41:28.000
<v Speaker 4>Quick? Listen? Listen, listen.

0:41:28.080 --> 0:41:31.600
<v Speaker 1>This is the problem we came out of All Star

0:41:31.680 --> 0:41:36.719
<v Speaker 1>weekend about we need to fix defense, right, yes, yes, right, we.

0:41:36.680 --> 0:41:38.760
<v Speaker 4>Need to fix defense. There's something wrong with the defense.

0:41:38.880 --> 0:41:40.560
<v Speaker 1>We need to put in hand checking, we need to

0:41:40.560 --> 0:41:42.360
<v Speaker 1>do three seconds, we need to do all this. We

0:41:42.400 --> 0:41:44.680
<v Speaker 1>need to you know, shorten three point line, make the

0:41:44.680 --> 0:41:45.800
<v Speaker 1>three point line bigger.

0:41:46.080 --> 0:41:48.879
<v Speaker 4>So I just threw in my own little thing. Hey,

0:41:48.880 --> 0:41:51.360
<v Speaker 4>how about this, right, hot fout?

0:41:51.920 --> 0:41:54.839
<v Speaker 1>If you really want to go back to the old

0:41:54.880 --> 0:41:58.000
<v Speaker 1>way of playing basketball, get rid of the people who

0:41:58.080 --> 0:42:01.440
<v Speaker 1>expanded the offense. See, they don't want they want to

0:42:01.480 --> 0:42:03.520
<v Speaker 1>think about Oh my god, he wants to get rid

0:42:03.560 --> 0:42:06.600
<v Speaker 1>of Euro. Think about what the Euro did to the game.

0:42:08.040 --> 0:42:10.680
<v Speaker 1>All the Yeuro centers besides.

0:42:10.440 --> 0:42:12.799
<v Speaker 4>Rudy all can shoot the three.

0:42:13.800 --> 0:42:17.719
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, they're not dinosaurs down there, right, So all the

0:42:17.840 --> 0:42:21.959
<v Speaker 1>Yeuro big men can shoot the three. All the Yuro

0:42:22.239 --> 0:42:24.800
<v Speaker 1>power forwards can shoot the three threes.

0:42:24.880 --> 0:42:25.080
<v Speaker 4>Four.

0:42:25.280 --> 0:42:31.400
<v Speaker 1>So the Yuro expanded the game outside in offensively, offensively.

0:42:31.680 --> 0:42:31.879
<v Speaker 4>Right.

0:42:32.120 --> 0:42:34.960
<v Speaker 1>So if you wanted to go back to eighties basketball

0:42:34.960 --> 0:42:36.719
<v Speaker 1>where you have a whole bunch of dudes that can't

0:42:36.719 --> 0:42:38.520
<v Speaker 1>shoot the ball, that could jump in, jump.

0:42:38.280 --> 0:42:40.640
<v Speaker 4>In, do this, well, then get rid of the year road. See,

0:42:41.040 --> 0:42:42.640
<v Speaker 4>they hear what I'm saying, but they don't try to

0:42:42.640 --> 0:42:45.600
<v Speaker 4>put no knowledge into it. Right. But here's the thing, though,

0:42:45.600 --> 0:42:49.760
<v Speaker 4>gil guys works. The guys are so specific now.

0:42:49.719 --> 0:42:51.440
<v Speaker 2>It ain't like for first of all, ain't like no

0:42:51.520 --> 0:42:54.319
<v Speaker 2>American born player playing now defense either, ain't nobody sitting

0:42:54.360 --> 0:42:56.919
<v Speaker 2>in a damn chair because even Kawhi and PG don't

0:42:56.920 --> 0:42:59.480
<v Speaker 2>play defense like they once did once Kawhi got a

0:42:59.520 --> 0:43:03.600
<v Speaker 2>taste that offensive scoring. Because look at when when Kawhi

0:43:03.640 --> 0:43:06.840
<v Speaker 2>Scory started going up here, that defense started coming down here. No,

0:43:08.080 --> 0:43:10.640
<v Speaker 2>it's only been it's only been like three guys three

0:43:11.040 --> 0:43:14.160
<v Speaker 2>that that would win what we consider winging Jordan, Kobe,

0:43:14.200 --> 0:43:16.360
<v Speaker 2>and Lebron because if you look at Lebron when he

0:43:16.440 --> 0:43:19.279
<v Speaker 2>was in Miami and he was winning the MVPs, he

0:43:19.400 --> 0:43:21.680
<v Speaker 2>was first team All Defense. He took that, he took

0:43:22.000 --> 0:43:24.839
<v Speaker 2>d Rose. Go look back at Lebron when he took

0:43:24.960 --> 0:43:27.520
<v Speaker 2>d Rose and d Rose had won the m v P.

0:43:28.880 --> 0:43:31.879
<v Speaker 2>Look at look at Lebron when he took Tony Parker. Yep,

0:43:32.040 --> 0:43:36.040
<v Speaker 2>it locked it. Yeah yeah, God had him logged up,

0:43:36.080 --> 0:43:39.680
<v Speaker 2>would let him out. So Kobe, we know, Kobe a

0:43:39.880 --> 0:43:43.240
<v Speaker 2>nine time All defensive guys Jordan, but we're talking about

0:43:43.440 --> 0:43:44.920
<v Speaker 2>not only just guys, because there are a lot of

0:43:44.920 --> 0:43:47.400
<v Speaker 2>guys that play defense, but they can't give you the

0:43:47.480 --> 0:43:50.480
<v Speaker 2>scory like those guys could. So that's what I'm talking about.

0:43:50.520 --> 0:43:52.600
<v Speaker 2>So now we look at American players, ain't know how

0:43:52.600 --> 0:43:53.040
<v Speaker 2>to play.

0:43:53.239 --> 0:43:53.640
<v Speaker 4>First of all.

0:43:53.680 --> 0:43:55.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, ain't no way to play in defense anymore because

0:43:55.520 --> 0:43:56.560
<v Speaker 2>ain't nobody making the money.

0:43:56.600 --> 0:43:58.680
<v Speaker 1>So no, it didn't even the fact that nobody's playing defense.

0:43:58.719 --> 0:44:00.640
<v Speaker 1>I think I think the problem is, and where I

0:44:00.640 --> 0:44:04.520
<v Speaker 1>get frustrated, is give credit to the offense. Why can't

0:44:04.520 --> 0:44:05.680
<v Speaker 1>we just give credit to something?

0:44:06.320 --> 0:44:09.400
<v Speaker 4>Right? Yes, right, we give credit to the offense. The

0:44:09.520 --> 0:44:11.280
<v Speaker 4>offense is just a lot better.

0:44:11.320 --> 0:44:14.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm just I'm telling you the year Roses shooting threes

0:44:14.239 --> 0:44:17.640
<v Speaker 1>from the five men position, right, Yes, so it's a

0:44:17.719 --> 0:44:21.280
<v Speaker 1>better position in today's game. Right you got guys shooting

0:44:21.280 --> 0:44:25.200
<v Speaker 1>from damn near half or when some of those players can't.

0:44:24.960 --> 0:44:27.080
<v Speaker 4>Even shoot from the free throw line. Right.

0:44:27.480 --> 0:44:33.040
<v Speaker 1>So when we talk about what the problem is, there's none.

0:44:34.640 --> 0:44:37.560
<v Speaker 4>There's no problem. What. I don't care what you.

0:44:37.640 --> 0:44:39.560
<v Speaker 1>Try to do. You want to play put put? No

0:44:39.640 --> 0:44:44.440
<v Speaker 1>three seconds? What you think that's gonna do? More threes? Yeah, well,

0:44:44.440 --> 0:44:46.120
<v Speaker 1>who you gonna who are you gonna sit in the lane?

0:44:46.160 --> 0:44:48.080
<v Speaker 1>With which which guy the center?

0:44:49.040 --> 0:44:49.360
<v Speaker 4>Bob?

0:44:50.480 --> 0:44:52.800
<v Speaker 1>You have Anti Davis in the three? You're gonna play zone.

0:44:53.000 --> 0:44:55.840
<v Speaker 1>Then it's all five men shooting threes. Like, there's no

0:44:56.000 --> 0:44:58.080
<v Speaker 1>there's no thought process in some of the things. So

0:44:58.120 --> 0:44:59.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, well, if you want to just throw out this,

0:45:00.040 --> 0:45:02.400
<v Speaker 1>if it's a thing, then say all right, well we

0:45:02.440 --> 0:45:04.759
<v Speaker 1>can take away five man shooting. We can take away

0:45:04.800 --> 0:45:07.400
<v Speaker 1>all these six ten seven foot shooters if you take

0:45:07.440 --> 0:45:08.480
<v Speaker 1>away the euros.

0:45:08.760 --> 0:45:11.960
<v Speaker 4>But obviously you don't want that to happen, so therefoot

0:45:12.239 --> 0:45:19.960
<v Speaker 4>shut the shut up, I think, yih, I.

0:45:19.920 --> 0:45:24.640
<v Speaker 2>Think also because the game is more open, the players

0:45:24.640 --> 0:45:29.439
<v Speaker 2>are more skilled, because you got probably one through eight

0:45:30.320 --> 0:45:32.160
<v Speaker 2>that could all shoot the ball had them.

0:45:32.280 --> 0:45:34.840
<v Speaker 4>I'm not saying they. I'm not saying that, Steph Curry,

0:45:34.880 --> 0:45:35.279
<v Speaker 4>So don't.

0:45:35.640 --> 0:45:38.000
<v Speaker 2>But for the most part, as you mentioned, with the

0:45:38.040 --> 0:45:41.799
<v Speaker 2>exception of Rudy Gobert, name of five, they can't let

0:45:41.800 --> 0:45:45.080
<v Speaker 2>a three go and shoot it with a level of

0:45:45.120 --> 0:45:48.920
<v Speaker 2>consistency that no that no five could ever shoot in

0:45:48.960 --> 0:45:50.600
<v Speaker 2>the eighties, in the nineties.

0:45:50.560 --> 0:45:52.680
<v Speaker 4>Even in the even in my ear two. Right.

0:45:53.080 --> 0:45:56.319
<v Speaker 2>So now you get guys that are more skilled, that

0:45:56.400 --> 0:46:00.680
<v Speaker 2>are playing in more space, it's harder to defend them

0:46:00.680 --> 0:46:01.440
<v Speaker 2>one on one.

0:46:01.640 --> 0:46:02.759
<v Speaker 4>And when you bring.

0:46:02.520 --> 0:46:05.359
<v Speaker 2>The double, you guys kicking to a guy that could

0:46:05.360 --> 0:46:08.440
<v Speaker 2>shoot better than anybody could with the exceptional maybe five

0:46:08.520 --> 0:46:10.399
<v Speaker 2>guys in the eighties and the nineties, in the early

0:46:10.440 --> 0:46:14.120
<v Speaker 2>two thousand. So what do you expect to happen If

0:46:14.160 --> 0:46:16.080
<v Speaker 2>you can't stay in front of a guy and I

0:46:16.160 --> 0:46:20.840
<v Speaker 2>gotta send help, That guy gonna be right wide open,

0:46:22.000 --> 0:46:24.960
<v Speaker 2>or he's guess what, Gil, he's at the dunker.

0:46:24.719 --> 0:46:26.680
<v Speaker 4>Spot and now when you come, I'll blump it off

0:46:26.680 --> 0:46:28.040
<v Speaker 4>to him. And he dunked the ball on your head.

0:46:28.640 --> 0:46:30.200
<v Speaker 2>Now that's the think are you cover with the help

0:46:30.200 --> 0:46:32.040
<v Speaker 2>and I throw the lobby and then Anthony David boom

0:46:32.239 --> 0:46:34.279
<v Speaker 2>or somebody booming it on you. Now to think about now,

0:46:34.360 --> 0:46:36.560
<v Speaker 2>think when we talk about Denver and Murray, right, when

0:46:36.640 --> 0:46:39.040
<v Speaker 2>Murray does that pick and roll, right, it ain't no

0:46:39.120 --> 0:46:43.399
<v Speaker 2>picking roll, it's a picking pop with the five man.

0:46:43.880 --> 0:46:45.840
<v Speaker 4>Right, So what baby, you're gonna switch out? You're on

0:46:45.920 --> 0:46:47.960
<v Speaker 4>a hard show. What you're gonna do because he's.

0:46:47.800 --> 0:46:49.880
<v Speaker 1>Gonna turn the corner and when he turns the corner

0:46:49.880 --> 0:46:52.080
<v Speaker 1>and you stay popped to your kid, to yo kich

0:46:52.360 --> 0:46:53.880
<v Speaker 1>who's protecting the rim?

0:46:54.520 --> 0:46:57.160
<v Speaker 4>Nobody? Nobody? And if you think about it, here come

0:46:57.239 --> 0:47:01.319
<v Speaker 4>cording it and lobs and for the right. It's just

0:47:01.360 --> 0:47:02.320
<v Speaker 4>a different game.

0:47:02.560 --> 0:47:06.040
<v Speaker 1>So if you want to take away, if you want

0:47:06.080 --> 0:47:09.160
<v Speaker 1>to change it and put more defense in, then you

0:47:09.239 --> 0:47:10.400
<v Speaker 1>have to take away offense.

0:47:10.520 --> 0:47:12.320
<v Speaker 4>And if you're gonna take away offense, you got to

0:47:12.360 --> 0:47:13.960
<v Speaker 4>take away the people who spread of the floor.

0:47:15.160 --> 0:47:17.800
<v Speaker 2>You can't you can't take it away now, No, because

0:47:18.160 --> 0:47:21.080
<v Speaker 2>now guys who don't care about dunky guys are shooting.

0:47:22.080 --> 0:47:23.560
<v Speaker 2>And all the guys that you look at, the guys

0:47:23.600 --> 0:47:25.520
<v Speaker 2>that AAU you don't see no high fly guys are

0:47:25.520 --> 0:47:26.080
<v Speaker 2>shooting the ball.

0:47:26.160 --> 0:47:28.080
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, it used to be guys.

0:47:27.920 --> 0:47:29.600
<v Speaker 2>Getting the ball down on the block and they turn

0:47:29.640 --> 0:47:33.200
<v Speaker 2>around and they you know, now, hey, guys are spacing

0:47:33.239 --> 0:47:36.600
<v Speaker 2>the floor. Everybody can shoot the ball. So the cats

0:47:36.640 --> 0:47:40.439
<v Speaker 2>out the bag. Pandora's box has been open. You can't

0:47:40.440 --> 0:47:43.640
<v Speaker 2>put the toothpaste back into the two. Whatever analogy or

0:47:43.719 --> 0:47:46.719
<v Speaker 2>phrase or cliche you want to use, this is where

0:47:46.719 --> 0:47:47.520
<v Speaker 2>we are right now.

0:47:47.880 --> 0:47:50.080
<v Speaker 1>You know what the real Okay, so this is how

0:47:50.120 --> 0:48:00.759
<v Speaker 1>the game looks. American basketball is ISO one on one, yes, right.

0:48:01.320 --> 0:48:05.560
<v Speaker 4>The Euro is team movement, spread the fall movement.

0:48:05.920 --> 0:48:09.759
<v Speaker 1>So what happens is when the two meet and you

0:48:09.840 --> 0:48:12.279
<v Speaker 1>put a great combo together, it.

0:48:12.320 --> 0:48:14.280
<v Speaker 4>Is hard to stop the American player.

0:48:14.320 --> 0:48:19.520
<v Speaker 1>Now because that American player got euro players to pass

0:48:19.560 --> 0:48:24.239
<v Speaker 1>the two. The euro has athletic guys to throw the

0:48:24.280 --> 0:48:28.359
<v Speaker 1>ball to right. So it is a great combia nation.

0:48:28.520 --> 0:48:28.800
<v Speaker 4>Now.

0:48:28.920 --> 0:48:31.520
<v Speaker 1>So when you when you think about Euros taking over

0:48:31.560 --> 0:48:33.759
<v Speaker 1>the game, they're expanding it.

0:48:34.760 --> 0:48:37.680
<v Speaker 4>Right. If you take Luca, If I say.

0:48:37.560 --> 0:48:41.360
<v Speaker 1>All right, remove Luca six ' nine point guard Unicorn

0:48:41.640 --> 0:48:48.880
<v Speaker 1>to that position, who's the second best Euro guard? Who's

0:48:48.920 --> 0:48:54.960
<v Speaker 1>the best, yeah, yeah, yeah, who's the who's the top

0:48:55.120 --> 0:48:57.800
<v Speaker 1>two Euro shooting guards?

0:48:57.840 --> 0:48:59.520
<v Speaker 4>The threes, right, So.

0:48:59.400 --> 0:49:02.640
<v Speaker 1>They're still they're still deficiency in that because those three

0:49:02.680 --> 0:49:05.120
<v Speaker 1>positions their team style.

0:49:05.880 --> 0:49:09.359
<v Speaker 4>Right. So the American is the star of the one

0:49:09.400 --> 0:49:12.440
<v Speaker 4>on one game and you add team players.

0:49:11.960 --> 0:49:16.320
<v Speaker 1>With them, it makes for great, great teams. So now

0:49:16.400 --> 0:49:19.880
<v Speaker 1>if you're a smart general manager, you have to understand

0:49:20.120 --> 0:49:21.480
<v Speaker 1>how to put your team together.

0:49:21.560 --> 0:49:23.440
<v Speaker 4>Now, like with.

0:49:23.560 --> 0:49:26.280
<v Speaker 1>Sun Goon, Jalen and over there, they.

0:49:26.160 --> 0:49:29.560
<v Speaker 4>Have a nice little combo. Yes, they need some more

0:49:29.719 --> 0:49:30.279
<v Speaker 4>team they.

0:49:30.200 --> 0:49:32.640
<v Speaker 1>Already have a one on one guy, right, you have

0:49:32.800 --> 0:49:35.080
<v Speaker 1>Van Fleet. You get a couple more year rolls on

0:49:35.120 --> 0:49:37.560
<v Speaker 1>that team that can spread the floor and play, or

0:49:37.640 --> 0:49:40.200
<v Speaker 1>just a bunch of a couple more international players that

0:49:40.239 --> 0:49:42.920
<v Speaker 1>can spread the floor and move around. They are going

0:49:43.000 --> 0:49:47.120
<v Speaker 1>to be hard to deal with.

0:49:47.840 --> 0:49:51.120
<v Speaker 2>Victor winm Miyama Wimby made history and president feed over

0:49:51.120 --> 0:49:53.840
<v Speaker 2>the Spurs last two games. After dropping thirty one to

0:49:53.840 --> 0:49:56.360
<v Speaker 2>twelve and six or sis six blocks against the Pacers,

0:49:56.560 --> 0:49:59.600
<v Speaker 2>Winby became the first rookie in league history coord consecutive

0:49:59.640 --> 0:50:02.960
<v Speaker 2>games of twenty five ten rebounds, five or more assists,

0:50:02.960 --> 0:50:06.160
<v Speaker 2>five plus box. On Thursday, Women had twenty eight points,

0:50:06.160 --> 0:50:09.520
<v Speaker 2>thirteen rebounds, seven assents and five blocks. Womben Yama seemingly

0:50:09.920 --> 0:50:11.960
<v Speaker 2>set some sort of history just about every night he

0:50:12.000 --> 0:50:14.880
<v Speaker 2>steps on the court. Since February the twelfth, he's averaging

0:50:14.880 --> 0:50:18.640
<v Speaker 2>twenty four point six alongside the jaw dropping almost six

0:50:18.719 --> 0:50:21.360
<v Speaker 2>blocks a game, five point seven blocks a game. I

0:50:21.560 --> 0:50:26.040
<v Speaker 2>said that the Rookie of the Year was over. He

0:50:26.040 --> 0:50:28.120
<v Speaker 2>would argue with me, I said, do you see what

0:50:28.120 --> 0:50:31.640
<v Speaker 2>this kid is doing? I mean, I'm no, seriously, do

0:50:31.680 --> 0:50:34.600
<v Speaker 2>you see it? First of all, I don't think. Look

0:50:34.719 --> 0:50:37.440
<v Speaker 2>if you came into I don't think first. And they

0:50:37.480 --> 0:50:39.720
<v Speaker 2>need to do away with this. Well, he didn't play,

0:50:39.840 --> 0:50:42.520
<v Speaker 2>but he's getting valuable experience. It's like a guy going

0:50:42.560 --> 0:50:48.760
<v Speaker 2>to college early. It benefits that it helps him, honestly,

0:50:48.800 --> 0:50:50.879
<v Speaker 2>that rookie. But it's been a little different what I'm saying.

0:50:51.360 --> 0:50:55.960
<v Speaker 2>Him being going through spring drills, practicing everything. He has

0:50:56.000 --> 0:50:58.719
<v Speaker 2>an advantage over God that doesn't get to come into

0:50:58.760 --> 0:50:59.320
<v Speaker 2>the summer.

0:51:00.120 --> 0:51:03.040
<v Speaker 4>So even though Chet didn't play.

0:51:03.640 --> 0:51:06.200
<v Speaker 2>Like you said, Gil, him being in a meeting room,

0:51:06.680 --> 0:51:10.160
<v Speaker 2>him being on the sideline, him understanding what NBA life

0:51:10.280 --> 0:51:13.800
<v Speaker 2>is about as opposed to winby it's different.

0:51:13.840 --> 0:51:15.520
<v Speaker 4>You can't tell me that didn't help.

0:51:16.320 --> 0:51:19.839
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, no, that helped because you you were put into

0:51:19.880 --> 0:51:25.200
<v Speaker 1>the system. Strength training, eating routines, learning how to sleep,

0:51:25.320 --> 0:51:27.400
<v Speaker 1>learning when to go, you know, wake up, you know

0:51:27.440 --> 0:51:33.320
<v Speaker 1>you're you have an NBA routine, right, So mentally, mentally,

0:51:33.480 --> 0:51:37.879
<v Speaker 1>you're not a rookie. Rightly, you're not a rookie, right,

0:51:37.960 --> 0:51:40.160
<v Speaker 1>you have established yourself in your room.

0:51:40.320 --> 0:51:42.240
<v Speaker 4>He is a full fledged.

0:51:41.880 --> 0:51:47.919
<v Speaker 1>Rookie coming from another country, learning it day by day, right,

0:51:48.040 --> 0:51:50.800
<v Speaker 1>understanding the west coach trip, going to the East coasture.

0:51:51.000 --> 0:51:53.560
<v Speaker 4>He's learning that all in real time. You've already been

0:51:53.600 --> 0:51:55.319
<v Speaker 4>to that, right, So.

0:51:55.480 --> 0:52:02.440
<v Speaker 1>This is really not a this is not a debatable conversation.

0:52:03.280 --> 0:52:07.440
<v Speaker 1>One you're only looking at because his team is good, right,

0:52:07.960 --> 0:52:11.120
<v Speaker 1>It's not that he is playing like a Rookie of

0:52:11.120 --> 0:52:14.440
<v Speaker 1>the year. His stats plus his team wins.

0:52:14.520 --> 0:52:18.439
<v Speaker 4>Right. What is he the fourth option in that offense? Yeah?

0:52:18.719 --> 0:52:21.399
<v Speaker 2>Right, yeah, because we know Shaye is one for sure,

0:52:21.760 --> 0:52:22.440
<v Speaker 2>and William J.

0:52:22.640 --> 0:52:23.759
<v Speaker 4>Williams is two.

0:52:24.280 --> 0:52:27.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so he's third at best, third at best. Right,

0:52:27.719 --> 0:52:29.040
<v Speaker 2>he's third, third at best.

0:52:29.280 --> 0:52:34.040
<v Speaker 1>So the Rookie of the Year is for sure, winby

0:52:34.400 --> 0:52:35.120
<v Speaker 1>But I.

0:52:35.040 --> 0:52:39.360
<v Speaker 4>Don't know if I'm the only male out here. Tall

0:52:39.400 --> 0:52:40.880

0:54:21.160 --> 0:54:23.239
<v Speaker 2>over to talk to him, and did John Ty Murray

0:54:23.280 --> 0:54:24.880
<v Speaker 2>didn't pay him any attention to ignore it?

0:54:25.880 --> 0:54:29.200
<v Speaker 4>TV ted him up. You got the crazy story.

0:54:29.239 --> 0:54:33.799
<v Speaker 2>What's the craziest take you ever, goy Gill, because this

0:54:33.920 --> 0:54:36.360
<v Speaker 2>reminds me of the one that I forget. What was

0:54:36.400 --> 0:54:38.480
<v Speaker 2>the old guy name that gave Tim Dunkey threw him

0:54:38.480 --> 0:54:42.880
<v Speaker 2>out the game for laughing. That's Crawford, Yeah, Joey Crawford.

0:54:42.920 --> 0:54:45.320
<v Speaker 2>Joey Crawford, Yeah, threw Timmy threw Timmy d out of

0:54:45.320 --> 0:54:46.800
<v Speaker 2>the game for laughing on the sideline.

0:54:46.880 --> 0:54:47.080
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:54:47.160 --> 0:54:50.360
<v Speaker 1>Uh, all the ones I got I deserved, right, not

0:54:50.400 --> 0:54:52.880
<v Speaker 1>even gonna lie it, right, I'm not even gonna lie

0:54:52.960 --> 0:54:55.319
<v Speaker 1>through the head man at the rep ones, right. I

0:54:55.360 --> 0:54:57.319
<v Speaker 1>got hit NodD threw the head man at him.

0:54:57.360 --> 0:54:58.719
<v Speaker 4>Right. I regret that, I.

0:54:58.680 --> 0:55:03.520
<v Speaker 1>Mean because you know, I couldn't afford that five thousand at.

0:55:03.400 --> 0:55:06.200
<v Speaker 4>The time there was my rookie season. I can afford

0:55:06.200 --> 0:55:09.759
<v Speaker 4>that five thousand at the time. But for the most part,

0:55:09.880 --> 0:55:12.840
<v Speaker 4>you know, I gave.

0:55:13.600 --> 0:55:20.440
<v Speaker 1>Refs respect because I understood. You know, uh, it is difficult,

0:55:21.040 --> 0:55:23.960
<v Speaker 1>right reffing in real time trying to see everything, and

0:55:24.040 --> 0:55:27.280
<v Speaker 1>our job is to you know, you know, players like me, Okay,

0:55:27.320 --> 0:55:29.759
<v Speaker 1>you sitting here, you sitting here, you down there. There's

0:55:29.800 --> 0:55:31.839
<v Speaker 1>certain things that I can do that you can't see

0:55:32.440 --> 0:55:35.080
<v Speaker 1>right right, Like I know you are looking here, he's

0:55:35.160 --> 0:55:37.640
<v Speaker 1>looking there, so I can palm the ball knowing that

0:55:37.719 --> 0:55:41.600
<v Speaker 1>nobody's actually looking at me directly. So sometimes when you

0:55:41.680 --> 0:55:46.040
<v Speaker 1>see players and someone's taking all these extra steps, for

0:55:46.120 --> 0:55:49.560
<v Speaker 1>the most part, they're not looking at the feet, right,

0:55:49.600 --> 0:55:51.319
<v Speaker 1>They're not they're not looking down at the feet. They're

0:55:51.320 --> 0:55:53.560
<v Speaker 1>looking at the catch, his body moved. They're not actually

0:55:53.640 --> 0:55:56.520
<v Speaker 1>looking in real time at at at players feet. So

0:55:56.960 --> 0:56:00.960
<v Speaker 1>it's one of those things where players understanding and where

0:56:01.040 --> 0:56:04.000
<v Speaker 1>these eyes sights are. So you know, when you're talking

0:56:04.040 --> 0:56:10.920
<v Speaker 1>about pettiness, oh man, refs aw Man, I don't like

0:56:10.960 --> 0:56:13.520
<v Speaker 1>shit like this like I like Tony Brothers because usually,

0:56:13.520 --> 0:56:17.600
<v Speaker 1>for the most part, he don't get emotional like this. Right,

0:56:18.600 --> 0:56:22.160
<v Speaker 1>this was an emotional tech and I'm sorry he should

0:56:22.160 --> 0:56:22.799
<v Speaker 1>be fine for that.

0:56:24.000 --> 0:56:27.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but it looked like, Hey, you called me over

0:56:27.160 --> 0:56:29.640
<v Speaker 2>to have me to explain something. I come over, I walked,

0:56:30.040 --> 0:56:31.799
<v Speaker 2>I walk over here to explain it to you. You

0:56:31.840 --> 0:56:35.000
<v Speaker 2>ignore me once I got here. But it's gonna be interesting.

0:56:35.040 --> 0:56:36.920
<v Speaker 2>It would be interesting to see. I don't know if

0:56:36.960 --> 0:56:40.000
<v Speaker 2>anybody question Tony and ask him why did he give

0:56:40.120 --> 0:56:40.960
<v Speaker 2>the John Tel tech?

0:56:41.600 --> 0:56:42.600
<v Speaker 4>Did he say something?

0:56:43.560 --> 0:56:45.680
<v Speaker 2>What caused first of all, what caused him to go

0:56:45.719 --> 0:56:48.719
<v Speaker 2>over there to carry and have that conversation. And it

0:56:48.760 --> 0:56:52.000
<v Speaker 2>looks like Murray didn't say anything. And if Murray didn't anything,

0:56:52.040 --> 0:56:54.040
<v Speaker 2>why would you tee him up? So it'd be interesting

0:56:54.040 --> 0:56:57.120
<v Speaker 2>if a pool reporter, if somebody asked, why did he

0:56:57.160 --> 0:56:57.600
<v Speaker 2>get a tech?

0:56:57.640 --> 0:56:59.520
<v Speaker 4>I don't know. It hadn't come out yet, so I

0:56:59.640 --> 0:57:02.359
<v Speaker 4>was just think just the You know, it's it's one

0:57:02.360 --> 0:57:03.520
<v Speaker 4>of those things where.

0:57:03.400 --> 0:57:06.800
<v Speaker 1>Because there's this big old rivalry right now between players,

0:57:06.880 --> 0:57:11.279
<v Speaker 1>and you know you have to set an example. We know,

0:57:12.040 --> 0:57:15.960
<v Speaker 1>we know you do penalize the referees. We know you

0:57:16.000 --> 0:57:18.360
<v Speaker 1>take them off certain games, they lose certain privileges.

0:57:18.560 --> 0:57:21.840
<v Speaker 4>We know that, but we don't see it right.

0:57:22.440 --> 0:57:26.680
<v Speaker 1>Even if you don't find Tony, say you did. Tony's

0:57:26.720 --> 0:57:30.840
<v Speaker 1>been fined five thousand for you know, the the unnecessary

0:57:30.880 --> 0:57:34.560
<v Speaker 1>technical against Murray. That right there lets us know they're

0:57:34.560 --> 0:57:38.440
<v Speaker 1>being held accountable. If nothing happens and you do something

0:57:38.480 --> 0:57:38.960
<v Speaker 1>behind the.

0:57:38.920 --> 0:57:41.680
<v Speaker 4>Scenes, what do you think we're thinking?

0:57:41.880 --> 0:57:49.800
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes you sometimes doing something relieve stress. Right, nothing happens

0:57:49.840 --> 0:57:53.800
<v Speaker 1>to Tony brothers his manhood by saying, hey, I'm gonna

0:57:53.800 --> 0:57:58.320
<v Speaker 1>fake like I'm gonna find you for the public, right.

0:57:58.400 --> 0:58:00.640
<v Speaker 4>And I don't think the NBA do that enough.

0:58:01.160 --> 0:58:04.960
<v Speaker 2>Right because when players criticized the officials, they get fine quick.

0:58:05.040 --> 0:58:07.680
<v Speaker 2>So if it got me, I mean yeah, when they

0:58:07.720 --> 0:58:09.240
<v Speaker 2>criticized them in public, they get fined.

0:58:09.360 --> 0:58:11.800
<v Speaker 4>So yeah.

0:58:10.480 --> 0:58:10.560
<v Speaker 1>Uh.

0:58:11.840 --> 0:58:14.240
<v Speaker 2>The crazy I think the craziest penalty that I've ever

0:58:14.280 --> 0:58:16.920
<v Speaker 2>got is that we're playing the Super Bowl and we

0:58:17.040 --> 0:58:19.440
<v Speaker 2>called a play and they called me for a holding

0:58:19.840 --> 0:58:22.320
<v Speaker 2>after TV ran the ball down to the one yard line,

0:58:22.640 --> 0:58:25.560
<v Speaker 2>and to Mike Shanahan's credit, he told official that wasn't

0:58:25.560 --> 0:58:25.840
<v Speaker 2>a hole.

0:58:26.280 --> 0:58:28.560
<v Speaker 4>He was so confident that that wasn't a hole.

0:58:28.880 --> 0:58:31.640
<v Speaker 2>We called the exact same play and I got we

0:58:31.680 --> 0:58:33.760
<v Speaker 2>got the exact same result and TV ran it back

0:58:33.800 --> 0:58:36.000
<v Speaker 2>down to the one yard line from five yards for

0:58:36.120 --> 0:58:39.200
<v Speaker 2>the back. So you should ain't be forgetting five if yards,

0:58:39.360 --> 0:58:42.200
<v Speaker 2>But I mean it was the Super Bowl, bro, that

0:58:42.240 --> 0:58:43.880
<v Speaker 2>could have called that could have cost us the game.

0:58:43.960 --> 0:58:47.160
<v Speaker 2>And now how do I I mean? And you know

0:58:47.200 --> 0:58:50.880
<v Speaker 2>what today's game, today's time, man sharp, you cast the

0:58:50.880 --> 0:58:53.520
<v Speaker 2>Broncos the Super Bowl without holding call you wasn't to tell,

0:58:53.560 --> 0:58:56.040
<v Speaker 2>you know. For the most part, Gil, I kind of

0:58:56.320 --> 0:58:58.920
<v Speaker 2>escaped my career. I did what I did, went to

0:58:58.960 --> 0:59:01.200
<v Speaker 2>the Pro Bowl. We're all pro one through Bowl, didn't

0:59:01.240 --> 0:59:03.600
<v Speaker 2>lose any of the games. And so for the most part,

0:59:04.080 --> 0:59:06.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm pretty good. I'm pretty good in that area. So

0:59:06.480 --> 0:59:09.000
<v Speaker 2>fans can't really say, well, hey, you got to hold

0:59:09.000 --> 0:59:10.760
<v Speaker 2>it call it cost your team a game, or you

0:59:10.880 --> 0:59:13.440
<v Speaker 2>dropped the touchdown in a playoff game that cost.

0:59:13.200 --> 0:59:15.520
<v Speaker 4>Your team a game. So I feel pretty good about that.

0:59:15.720 --> 0:59:18.640
<v Speaker 2>So kudos to mic for believing because I said, Mike,

0:59:18.640 --> 0:59:21.000
<v Speaker 2>I didn't hold it, and you look at the screen.

0:59:21.040 --> 0:59:23.000
<v Speaker 2>I didn't hold him. I didn't have my hands outside.

0:59:23.200 --> 0:59:26.320
<v Speaker 2>My hands was inside. But hey, you know how didn't

0:59:26.360 --> 0:59:28.240
<v Speaker 2>do They turned to the fisher because they couldn't get

0:59:28.240 --> 0:59:30.560
<v Speaker 2>off the block, and he did like this, hed the

0:59:30.600 --> 0:59:33.200
<v Speaker 2>fisher through the flag. Mike called it against him running again.

0:59:33.280 --> 0:59:37.320
<v Speaker 4>He so he sold it. Oh he old he did?

0:59:37.600 --> 0:59:40.680
<v Speaker 2>Beat on your high Yeah, yeah, that was as a

0:59:40.680 --> 0:59:42.760
<v Speaker 2>matter of fact. He the next year he became my

0:59:42.800 --> 0:59:46.080
<v Speaker 2>teammate self joinan her. Oh god, he was in green Bad.

0:59:46.080 --> 0:59:48.200
<v Speaker 2>He was in green Bad at the time we beat him.

0:59:48.280 --> 0:59:51.000
<v Speaker 2>He came over there. Uh, he came to us in

0:59:51.080 --> 0:59:52.560
<v Speaker 2>ninety eight. He went a Super Bowl with us, and

0:59:52.560 --> 0:59:54.120
<v Speaker 2>I think that was his last year. He retired after that.

0:59:54.280 --> 0:59:57.240
<v Speaker 4>Okay,
