1
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:03,960
Speaker 1: Hey, everybody, it's Bryan the editor.

2
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:06,520
Speaker 2: Now I know what you guys are thinking with this

3
00:00:06,559 --> 00:00:09,160
Speaker 2: guy again, but where's Miles, Where's Jack?

4
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:13,280
Speaker 3: Where's my boostes? Well, if you just calm down for

5
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 3: a second, I will tell you. Okay.

6
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:22,120
Speaker 2: So what happened was that Miles, Jack and Jabbari did

7
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 2: so good at basketball camp that they got invited to

8
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:31,640
Speaker 2: Lebron James's birthday slash New Year's party. And uh, I'm

9
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:36,800
Speaker 2: gonna be honest, they're still recovering. So in the meantime,

10
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:40,200
Speaker 2: I compiled the greatest hits.

11
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:41,720
Speaker 3: If you will, from the past year.

12
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 4: And don't you dare call it a clip show.

13
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 2: Okay, these are treasure memories that we all share.

14
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:55,320
Speaker 5: Enjoy watching his workouts, like you really do get to

15
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:58,360
Speaker 5: get a feeling that you're like getting to watch him

16
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 5: build his game like brick by brick and watching his workouts.

17
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,240
Speaker 5: I mean that that's something that people like show up

18
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,160
Speaker 5: hours early for the game to watch. But like that

19
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 5: was something I could have used more workout footage, like

20
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 5: just like watching him like do that thing where he

21
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:15,319
Speaker 5: like bounces off one foot and does like a step

22
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 5: back that covers five feet and then like nails of

23
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 5: three Like that was so fun. I could watched that

24
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 5: for hours like that. I could have used more just

25
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:29,560
Speaker 5: him casually making like three quarter court shots, just because

26
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 5: that's a unique superpower that he has.

27
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,560
Speaker 6: Did you notice at one point they he was just

28
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 6: casually shooting a half court left handed three pointers, like.

29
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 3: Just just to do it and sink in them.

30
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 6: But during that workout, at one point in the footage,

31
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:46,480
Speaker 6: he's just like, Okay, let me just shoot a couple lefties.

32
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 1: Just ridiculous.

33
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think part of the trick of the movie

34
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 5: is covering up the fact that this this man has

35
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 5: an actual superpower and has since he was a child, Like, yeah,

36
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 5: being able to make threes with your left is no joke.

37
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 5: Have you seen his golf swing? Like it's just the

38
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 5: most perfect, Like it's better looking than any golf swing

39
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 5: that you've seen on the PGA Tour. It's so beautiful.

40
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, that's that's just until Chuck.

41
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 7: What's really crazy too?

42
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 8: And I was talking to this, I was talking to

43
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:17,520
Speaker 8: my boy about this, And to be clear before I

44
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 8: said this, I'm not a Lebron hater. There's a lot

45
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 8: of Lebron haters out there. I am not a Lebron hate,

46
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 8: but you could argue that Steph changed the game in

47
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 8: a way that Lebron did not. Le Bron is amazing,

48
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 8: but it's not like he's the first tall point guard,

49
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,519
Speaker 8: you know, like we've seen magic before. He's an elite

50
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 8: athlete to the level that we've never seen. But when

51
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 8: Lebron started playing, I wasn't like, oh, I've never seen this,

52
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:47,160
Speaker 8: Like he reminded me of Scottie.

53
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 7: Pippen, you know what I mean.

54
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 8: It was like, Okay, big point forward, athlete, two way player,

55
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:55,679
Speaker 8: elite defender. But I've seen that, not on Lebron's level,

56
00:02:55,720 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 8: but I've seen it Steph Like he there's a reason

57
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 8: the NBA has played the way it is now, and

58
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,839
Speaker 8: it was because the Warriors showed teams what spacing can do.

59
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 8: And that's when now everybody has to shoot threes, everybody

60
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,519
Speaker 8: has to clear out. To me, that's traced back to

61
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 8: step and like, oh, we have to guard this guy

62
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 8: as soon as across his half court and then the

63
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 8: space that creates everybody else. And yeah, it's insane that

64
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,519
Speaker 8: he started off as this, Like could he even make

65
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 8: a team?

66
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:26,119
Speaker 9: Right?

67
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 7: Yeah?

68
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 5: Exactly, it's yeah, he I feel like he changed the

69
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 5: game more than anyone since like luel Center, like whoever,

70
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 5: Like like everything changed, and then you know Kream comes in,

71
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 5: everybody is like being center oriented and then for all

72
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 5: like decades, that's the that's the plan. You got to

73
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 5: do that, and like he's completely reoriented everything. I will say,

74
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 5: as as a Lebron lover, when he went against Detroit

75
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 5: early on, I forget what year was in his career.

76
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 5: I think it was like second or third year and

77
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 5: then like was just getting to the rim on the

78
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 5: best defensive team in the league every single time. That

79
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 5: to me felt like, oh, we are witnessing something that

80
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 5: is different than I've I've seen anyone do at this level,

81
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 5: Like in like I've seen people go to the rim

82
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 5: and dunk, I've not seen it be like this consistently.

83
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 5: Just he can get to the rim and dunk with

84
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 5: both hands like every time. Was one of the craziest things.

85
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,839
Speaker 5: But it didn't reorient how people played the game and

86
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 5: like game planned for the next season, right, And that's

87
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:34,840
Speaker 5: all I.

88
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 8: Mean, Like, yeah, totally, I'm tired of the Lebron hat takes.

89
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 7: The guy has earned our respect.

90
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 10: If you're a.

91
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 8: Hoophead, yeah you can critique him all you want. That's

92
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 8: what it comes with the territory being an all time great.

93
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:51,239
Speaker 8: But yeah, enough, the guy. The guy's unbelievable. But again,

94
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 8: I just and you already said it. I just think

95
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:55,359
Speaker 8: Steph changed the way the game is played.

96
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:57,599
Speaker 7: It's remarkable. It really is.

97
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 6: Yeah, if you think about it, I mean, we can

98
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 6: look at Lebron and you know, as much as we want,

99
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,599
Speaker 6: we can't duplicate that. The belief that comes with you know,

100
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:07,839
Speaker 6: like if you're a kid watching the game, you might

101
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 6: you'll think Lebron is incredible. You might think these, you know,

102
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:11,599
Speaker 6: the big guys are incredible. But all of a sudden,

103
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 6: you see this little guy, whether he's six two or

104
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 6: nine six two and three quarters or whatever the case

105
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:17,599
Speaker 6: may be, you see this little guy out there just

106
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 6: flinging it up and you'll, you know, dipping in and

107
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 6: somehow you'll you'll you'll finding his way like all over

108
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:24,839
Speaker 6: the court, and it's like and it's like, hey, I

109
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 6: could probably do that, or I could possibly do that

110
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:27,720
Speaker 6: even if I can't.

111
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:29,760
Speaker 3: So yeah, I totally understand that.

112
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 8: And also the idea that you can add to your

113
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:35,600
Speaker 8: game r just because you come into the league.

114
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 7: Because of your one skill, which is shooting.

115
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:39,920
Speaker 8: I mean I remember early in his career they were like,

116
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 8: STEP's not a point guard, he's a shooting guard. And

117
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 8: you watch him now, Franking Ankles no look passes. I mean,

118
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:48,480
Speaker 8: he's not going to lead the league in assists, but

119
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 8: he doesn't have to. Yeah, but he's a legitimate point guard.

120
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 8: He's a legitimate three level score and he came into

121
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:55,600
Speaker 8: the league as a three point specialist.

122
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,440
Speaker 7: That's it. You know, you can add to your game.

123
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,480
Speaker 8: It also makes you wonder, like some of these guys

124
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 8: that come up with more talent, It's like, is it

125
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 8: a work ethic thing because you have access to the

126
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 8: same shooting coaches like to me working on your jumper.

127
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 8: Like guys that come to the NBA and never get

128
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:14,039
Speaker 8: better at shooting, I'm like, what have you been doing?

129
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 8: Or like your free throw percentage doesn't increase at all

130
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,720
Speaker 8: throughout your career. I'm like, how is that even possible?

131
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:19,920
Speaker 9: Yeah?

132
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 7: Yeah, at the end of practice, you just you know,

133
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 7: shoot one hundred free throws or whatever. It's like it's inconceivable, honestly.

134
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 5: But I think there is a piece of steath that

135
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 5: is missing from this that is, like you know Katie.

136
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,720
Speaker 5: There's a good scene where Kadi comes to is the

137
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 5: celebration party they throw after like he breaks the all

138
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 5: time you know. It opens with him breaking the all

139
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 5: time three point shooting record, you know, halfway through his career,

140
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 5: and then there's a party afterwards. Katie shows up and

141
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,920
Speaker 5: he's like, I thought you were this little white kid

142
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:53,720
Speaker 5: when I met you, like ten years ago. I walked

143
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:55,840
Speaker 5: into a gym and there's this little white kid, Like,

144
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 5: but he's making threes from half court at that point,

145
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 5: So I really think that there is a like it's

146
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:07,760
Speaker 5: not it's like having touch from sixty feet is like

147
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,200
Speaker 5: a weird thing that we're just like, man, he must

148
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 5: have practiced that a lot, but it does feel like

149
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 5: that is something that we don't necessarily think about as

150
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 5: like a inherent ability, but it is like something that

151
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 5: he has and has had, like from early on.

152
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 8: He's got to have, like he's got to have like

153
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 8: the most elite depth perception true and hand coordination. That's

154
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 8: and that's that people don't talk about that hand that

155
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 8: coordination is a big one.

156
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 7: You can be an elite ask have that.

157
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:42,120
Speaker 6: Yeah, well that one workout that they showed, you know, right,

158
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 6: before the shooting where he's doing like the two tennis balls,

159
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 6: he's catching it, he's crossing over, catching the tennis ball,

160
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 6: throwing it with the other hand, all of that type

161
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,720
Speaker 6: of stuff where while I get it, like there are

162
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 6: people that can do that, he's doing it. He's doing

163
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 6: it with such ease it it makes sense that he

164
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 6: can do these things really.

165
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,600
Speaker 8: And those are that those are the skill that I think,

166
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 8: you know, your average fan doesn't notice, right, It's the

167
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 8: same thing with Lebron. It's like you look at Lebron,

168
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 8: you see this elite athlete. You know, the quickness, the jump, thing,

169
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 8: the strength, but it's the mental processing. Like everyone who's

170
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 8: ever played with Lebron, it's like the guy just sees

171
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:14,920
Speaker 8: the game differently.

172
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 7: I think Steph is Steph is.

173
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 8: It's it's one thing to be able to stretch the

174
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 8: floor like that, it's another to be able to say, Okay,

175
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 8: guys have to guard me at half court. So here's

176
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,040
Speaker 8: what that does to the defense. So I'm thinking two

177
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 8: steps ahead, I'm gonna whip it to Draymond and.

178
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 7: I'm gonna cut and I'm gonna come out the other side.

179
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,240
Speaker 8: Because they're so spaced out I'm gonna get a shot

180
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 8: on this wing, like he sees the game and that

181
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 8: Lebron level.

182
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 7: I'm a couple of steps.

183
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,600
Speaker 8: Ahead of all of you, and I'm aware of what

184
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:45,080
Speaker 8: me being on the floor does.

185
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:47,320
Speaker 7: Yeah, I know how to use it, and that's like

186
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,440
Speaker 7: that's like the next step, right.

187
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's it's cool. Uh Like basically no notes for

188
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 5: this documentary, though, I think people should go check it out,

189
00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:59,680
Speaker 5: especially if you're Steph skeptic.

190
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 8: Or even other example, if you'll indulge me with another example,

191
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 8: It's like when Shack added passing. It's like once Shack

192
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 8: became aware every time I touched the ball, three guys

193
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 8: are gonna come running at me, and Shack started being

194
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,200
Speaker 8: able to hit those no look passes that you know,

195
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 8: our vetus was like that, Like it's just like a

196
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 8: different obviously. Now it's like being aware of your impact

197
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:22,840
Speaker 8: on the defense and then what to do about that,

198
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 8: I think is a different evolution.

199
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 7: Yes, I agree, this documentary is unreal so good.

200
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, hey, speaking of things that people should go watch,

201
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 5: that's wild that the Sun's Verse Spurs is a one

202
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:35,839
Speaker 5: of the big matchups we were looking forward to. But

203
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 5: I will know I was checking for it.

204
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:39,679
Speaker 3: Of course, we want to see Wemby, we want to

205
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:40,200
Speaker 3: see KD.

206
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 9: We want to see just something.

207
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:43,440
Speaker 11: We just want to see what it looks like, what

208
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 11: these sort of matchups begin to look like.

209
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:46,280
Speaker 3: Uh.

210
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,480
Speaker 11: And it did not disappoint. I mean at least in like,

211
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 11: there were some great moments. It was a thrilling end

212
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 11: to the game. I think I think the Neutrals definitely.

213
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 3: Won that one.

214
00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 5: Watching along, Yeah, James, and I do want to just

215
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 5: note because one of the other things I pointed out

216
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:07,440
Speaker 5: or I put out there was wembing Yama for deepoy

217
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:11,920
Speaker 5: as a possibility deep in the summer when he was

218
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:15,080
Speaker 5: like in the twenties, like he was, you know, the

219
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 5: twentieth best odds for that year. He is now seventh

220
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 5: for defensive Player of the Year, even though it does

221
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 5: like his numbers haven't been gaudy, but it does feel

222
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,839
Speaker 5: like there is a gravitational force and teams are having

223
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 5: to play, you know, do drills with a person who

224
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:38,839
Speaker 5: has stilts on and broomsticks on their arms in order

225
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 5: to just like get their mind around what it's like

226
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:44,640
Speaker 5: to play basketball when he's on the court. So I

227
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 5: am excited about that. I'm excited, first of all just

228
00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:49,680
Speaker 5: all around about webbing Yama, but the second of all

229
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 5: about him potentially making me look smart and his name

230
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 5: starting to get involved in the deepoy race.

231
00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 12: I mean, it's not necessarily with him, it wasna impact.

232
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,080
Speaker 12: That's why we have to watch the basketball games. That's

233
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 12: why I impressed that you know, everyone watched the Suns

234
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 12: Furs last night because Suns are up like twenty plus

235
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:08,080
Speaker 12: at the time.

236
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 13: I think in a third quarter, I'm not a sakend.

237
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,960
Speaker 12: And then the first guys came back and end up

238
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,079
Speaker 12: stealing a game that they're probably should be a foul call,

239
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:15,640
Speaker 12: but it wasn't.

240
00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 7: But it is what it is that you know who

241
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:18,559
Speaker 7: cares at this point.

242
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 12: That being said, though, you have to watch them be

243
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,320
Speaker 12: And the reason why is because there's certain things he

244
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 12: makes players do that normal people cannot.

245
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:30,280
Speaker 13: Don't have the same effect.

246
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 12: People make Guys either pass it early or try to

247
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,559
Speaker 12: make plays they normally don't make, so when that happens,

248
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 12: it's usually an error of some sort. So that's where

249
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 12: it's like, man, he may not get the block or

250
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,800
Speaker 12: the steel, but he's causing players.

251
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 13: To do things that are not comfortable and doing or.

252
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 12: He's causing guys to rush and get out of their

253
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:52,640
Speaker 12: own pace, and there's a lot to that. And when

254
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:56,200
Speaker 12: they get better players and when they get better defensive system,

255
00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 12: he's gonna win top the player of the year because

256
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,800
Speaker 12: the stats will come. But he's amazing, He's really amazing.

257
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 12: He's nowhere close to scratching the surface season. That's the

258
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 12: beautiful people why he's so far away. But defensively, I

259
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:09,559
Speaker 12: know we talked about the summer. I think was like

260
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,679
Speaker 12: forty to one or thirty someone that range, which is

261
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:14,840
Speaker 12: really high. I think I was like, what ten to

262
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 12: one or fourteen to one, So yeah, yeah, it's in

263
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 12: that range. So yeah, you just had an equity in

264
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 12: your bet from two months ago. Was huge And there's

265
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 12: a there's a legit possibility he played sixty five games

266
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 12: when they were there's a lot, honest pathway that happening.

267
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:31,720
Speaker 12: Say it's gonna happen, but there is a.

268
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 13: Way of it happening.

269
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's good value and I'm glad that I did

270
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 5: not take that bet, but I know people who did,

271
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:44,040
Speaker 5: so I'm happy if if anybody makes money off of

272
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:48,520
Speaker 5: my lucky guess, some of them being I'm a stats

273
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 5: though like that. So hees twenty nine points on twelve

274
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,000
Speaker 5: of fifteen shooting. So we we've talked a lot about

275
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:58,280
Speaker 5: it as a defense, and you know, there are these

276
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:03,200
Speaker 5: flashes of brilliance on offense, but I didn't realize like

277
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 5: he was really closing games strong. He's twenty nine points

278
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 5: on twelve to fifteen shooting in the fourth quarter through

279
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,559
Speaker 5: the first four games of his NBA career, which makes

280
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,480
Speaker 5: him the most efficient scorer of the eighty four players

281
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 5: who have at least ten field goal attempts in the

282
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:19,400
Speaker 5: final frame this season.

283
00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 3: It's very impressive, and.

284
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 9: They're going to him like.

285
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 12: The only thing I don't like is that at times

286
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 12: it feels like his teammates are freezing him out, which

287
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 12: is wild because he's the best player on the team already.

288
00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 13: Yeah, but.

289
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,679
Speaker 12: Basically featuring him every time down before quarter, like every

290
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:37,599
Speaker 12: time he should get in the ball wherever he wants to,

291
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:39,679
Speaker 12: because he is the best option was the jumper, whether

292
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,160
Speaker 12: it the dunk orlea, whatever it is, he should least

293
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,440
Speaker 12: touch the ball before anyone else gets a touch. But

294
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,679
Speaker 12: with that being said, he's delivered this first week been

295
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 12: very impressive. Outside of the Clipper game, because they got

296
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 12: blown out. Well, every other game he's been very impressive,

297
00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 12: and again he's not even close to being what he's

298
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 12: going to be, which is very scary because right now

299
00:13:58,880 --> 00:13:59,959
Speaker 12: he's a huge problem.

300
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean Kevin Durant said the same thing.

301
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 11: Basically, he was like, it's like this guy's just getting

302
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 11: started and it's only going it's going to going straight

303
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 11: up from here.

304
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:09,800
Speaker 7: Yeah.

305
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 5: The point you made about like looking like he's getting

306
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 5: like frozen out or something. I don't think it's like

307
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 5: getting frozen out, but like it just feels like people

308
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 5: aren't ready to defer to him at all on that

309
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 5: team and where maybe they should be. And it's hard

310
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 5: for me to determine. Is it because I just want

311
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:29,600
Speaker 5: to see him have the ball every time?

312
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:30,040
Speaker 9: Right?

313
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 5: Like it like I'm a parent watching their kid and

314
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 5: be like, get him the ball. Yeah, yeah, but it does.

315
00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 5: I don't know, it does feel like they could be

316
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 5: looking for him a little bit more.

317
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:44,680
Speaker 3: I mean, like there's plenty of game.

318
00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:47,520
Speaker 11: I'm sure maybe on some level psychologically it's like you

319
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 11: can slowly increase the burden. But yeah, I mean, every

320
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 11: time you see him with the bar, like I think

321
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:52,720
Speaker 11: it's gonna.

322
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 3: Okay, the jump shot is wet.

323
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 5: Okay, you should be could also be a conspicuous decision

324
00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:02,240
Speaker 5: on the Spurs part to be like, if you're not

325
00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 5: putting him putting him in any but the best of

326
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:11,040
Speaker 5: positions to score in crunch time, like then he's going

327
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 5: to shoot twelve to fifteen. And so they're you know,

328
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 5: trying to build his confidence and create ease for him

329
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:19,560
Speaker 5: where he can like kind of step in uh and

330
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 5: feel the flow as opposed to you know, so maybe

331
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 5: that's a conscious decision by Poppins and their staff there.

332
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 12: If another monitoring ad minutes, I'm just glad they're not

333
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 12: just playing them in the first and third quarter and

334
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 12: let him sit the bench.

335
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 3: In the fourth.

336
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:35,480
Speaker 12: I'm glad they're actually letting them play the last six

337
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 12: statements in the fourth quarter, where the big game actually matters,

338
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:39,880
Speaker 12: because a lot of times he'll see got in a

339
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:42,240
Speaker 12: minute in restriction and they're playing in the third quarter

340
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 12: and they'll just set up the whole court and they're like,

341
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 12: what as good as that? But I know what they're doing.

342
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:53,040
Speaker 11: This is I don't know the whole The last what day,

343
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:56,400
Speaker 11: three days, there's just been obscene amounts of scoring and

344
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 11: we were talking about the amounts of high scoring gay

345
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 11: or you know, individu performance, there have been I just

346
00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:03,880
Speaker 11: want to read a stat just to kind of set

347
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 11: the backdrop to, you know, on top of everything we've seen,

348
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:11,840
Speaker 11: like with Luca or Donovan Lebron, you know, a joker

349
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 11: in Okay. So in the two thousands, the entirety of

350
00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 11: the two thousands, there were only nine sixty.

351
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:18,920
Speaker 3: Point games from players.

352
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 7: Wow.

353
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 11: In the twenty tens, in the twenty tens, there were

354
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 11: eleven sixty point plus games from players. So far, we've

355
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 11: already had nine sixty point games in the twenty twenties.

356
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 11: And we're in twenty twenty two or just entering twenty

357
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 11: twenty three and we've had nine already.

358
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 4: Well, what is that from? Is that just from Pete?

359
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 14: The three point shot becoming such a so much more relevant.

360
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 5: My take on this is so dumb. It's just like, yeah,

361
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 5: they're really good at making shots. Yeah, shot take it

362
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 5: like that. You hear like NBA, like Zach Low people

363
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 5: be like the shot makings really off the charts. It's like, yeah,

364
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:56,800
Speaker 5: they're they're good at shooting. They're good at making the

365
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 5: ball in the basket.

366
00:16:58,120 --> 00:16:59,479
Speaker 4: They're getting bar points.

367
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 11: It turns out when you add them up, the numbers

368
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 11: are a lot higher than last time. Yeah, I don't

369
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 11: know if it's like I think also too, we were

370
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:10,000
Speaker 11: talking with Jabbari, our super producer. You know, as the

371
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 11: game evolves and you know, the refereeing tends to benefit

372
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,159
Speaker 11: higher scoring, I think we're just kind of seeing like

373
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:19,960
Speaker 11: the byproduct of those sort of small tweaks, you know.

374
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:22,800
Speaker 14: Well, more more threes and then more people being able

375
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:24,960
Speaker 14: to draw that extra free throw. I mean not that

376
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 14: that like that just maybe has a cumulative effect, but

377
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:29,680
Speaker 14: I mean that that's been one of the harder things

378
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:32,479
Speaker 14: to like to officiate, to get cleaned up. Is just

379
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,720
Speaker 14: that foul on the three. The way that they like

380
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 14: Steph Curry for it like that, the way that he's

381
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 14: always able to draw that those three free throws.

382
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 4: I mean that's adds up, you know.

383
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know it is. The three has been around

384
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 5: since the eighties. I mean they're just they figured out, oh,

385
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:52,840
Speaker 5: that's that's a lot of points, we should do that.

386
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:56,359
Speaker 5: And the efficiency that people are doing it, like Donovan

387
00:17:56,400 --> 00:18:00,920
Speaker 5: Mitchell's seventy one came on thirty, like low thirties field

388
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 5: goal attempts and it was like the least of anyone

389
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:05,160
Speaker 5: in the top thirty five.

390
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 4: And didn't he assist on like ninety four of the point.

391
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,879
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, ninety nine of the points he was either

392
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:13,879
Speaker 5: direct he was directly responsible.

393
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 14: I mean that is absolutely Who's had a better game

394
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,640
Speaker 14: than that, Like Will Chamberlain.

395
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 5: Made Toby, yeah, Chamberlain, any one?

396
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:24,439
Speaker 11: Yeah, right, Kobe, but this was this was the like

397
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,360
Speaker 11: the highest scoring game since Kobe.

398
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:27,920
Speaker 4: Oh yeah really wow?

399
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:28,200
Speaker 9: Yeah.

400
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:31,760
Speaker 14: I remember when the Kobe game happened. I didn't watch it,

401
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,640
Speaker 14: but I was at the gym Bally's humble brag the

402
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:35,400
Speaker 14: following day.

403
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:37,160
Speaker 4: Things were good, things.

404
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:38,919
Speaker 5: Were real flats. It was the seventies.

405
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:39,560
Speaker 4: Things were fine.

406
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:44,959
Speaker 14: There's not many that's a long ago fust but I

407
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:47,080
Speaker 14: mean I remember I heard a guys say it, and

408
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,720
Speaker 14: I was like, now you have something wrong, Like there's

409
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,240
Speaker 14: there's a detail you have wrong in how many points

410
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:53,719
Speaker 14: he scored?

411
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:57,119
Speaker 5: Right, yeah, yeah, it seems like it seems like an error.

412
00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:00,080
Speaker 5: And same yesterday it's ninety nine.

413
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:01,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then what.

414
00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:06,120
Speaker 11: Let Luca sixty fifty another fifty on the last ten

415
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:07,840
Speaker 11: days as of this recording.

416
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:07,880
Speaker 15: Like.

417
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:13,560
Speaker 5: Sure, yeah, yeah, Luca's was historic because he had twenty

418
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:17,480
Speaker 5: something boards where we keep seeing that like in the

419
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 5: Donovan Mitchell game also there was like an intentionally missed

420
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,280
Speaker 5: free throw that like saved the game for them. Like

421
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:26,120
Speaker 5: it does feel like there's a glitch in the matrix,

422
00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:30,520
Speaker 5: like said the whatever video game where we're watching them play,

423
00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:35,080
Speaker 5: it's just stuck on like yeah, yeah.

424
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:35,879
Speaker 3: On demo mode or whatever.

425
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:38,879
Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, yeah, someone's putting in the code that before

426
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 11: at the loading screen before the game starts, and they

427
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:44,680
Speaker 11: figured out how to make it constantly on fire. But yeah,

428
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:46,119
Speaker 11: I mean I think it also you know, goes to

429
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 11: your point, Jack, Like Jabari's in the chat saying like

430
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:51,240
Speaker 11: it is a you know, a confluence of things, just

431
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:54,840
Speaker 11: like the game's progressive. People's skill sets are just getting

432
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:58,400
Speaker 11: more and more like next level and people have are

433
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 11: just so multifaceted now, and shooting is just like we're

434
00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:04,120
Speaker 11: seeing like I remember the you know, a few weeks ago,

435
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:04,520
Speaker 11: We're like.

436
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 3: Why is everyone shooting so well this year already?

437
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:10,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, I still have the same question. It's yeah, it's

438
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:13,720
Speaker 5: wild they I think they've been I don't like, I

439
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:15,920
Speaker 5: don't like, I will not allow it.

440
00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 14: Yeah, and then what what didn't the the Warriors went

441
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:24,960
Speaker 14: to double overtime and Clay put up fifty and fifty

442
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:29,080
Speaker 14: and what was the final was like one fifty to whatever?

443
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:33,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, include it was. Yeah, I mean that.

444
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:35,680
Speaker 4: Is absolutely crazy.

445
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:36,360
Speaker 9: Yeah.

446
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:38,359
Speaker 5: By the way, the Wilt Chamberlain, because we were talking

447
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:40,160
Speaker 5: before we started, like, are we going to see another

448
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:43,800
Speaker 5: one hundred point game? Like it feels possible Now it

449
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,919
Speaker 5: feels like the shooting is so next level of the

450
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:51,639
Speaker 5: shot making trademark is just so next level. And I

451
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:54,160
Speaker 5: don't know, like Luca, Luca feels like a good candidate

452
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:57,359
Speaker 5: for it. But Wilt Chamberlain's hundred point game, his team

453
00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:01,480
Speaker 5: put up one hundred and sixty nine points. So that's

454
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 5: you know, not a lot of teams doing that these days.

455
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:06,960
Speaker 14: But and here's a dumb question. I have no clue,

456
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,560
Speaker 14: but was that Where was that game an overtime at all?

457
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:09,840
Speaker 12: No?

458
00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:10,480
Speaker 5: I don't think so.

459
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:12,159
Speaker 4: I think that. I mean, that is.

460
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,240
Speaker 14: Just what do you I mean, you can't go to

461
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,480
Speaker 14: another game if you go to that one? Like, I'm done,

462
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:21,920
Speaker 14: I'm put my jacket up in the round.

463
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:24,119
Speaker 4: I'm out of here. I'm not doing this again.

464
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:27,160
Speaker 11: Why I tried to take my wife to another game?

465
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,400
Speaker 11: She said, the guy they score one hundred points again

466
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 11: twenty let's get our money back. This is terrible. Oh yeah,

467
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 11: I mean also too, like the other thing before we

468
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 11: take a break. The Nets also have been on an

469
00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 11: absolute tear since December fourth, twelve straight. Yeah, and they're

470
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,840
Speaker 11: sixteen and one going back to late November. And I

471
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:55,520
Speaker 11: just said, man, the highlights of last night. We're also

472
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,920
Speaker 11: Oh man, I don't know. I didn't have as much faith.

473
00:21:58,960 --> 00:21:59,960
Speaker 3: I don't know. LEO have to go back to the

474
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 3: predictions episode.

475
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 5: Maybe I did predict this, Yeah, well we should prediction EPI. Yeah,

476
00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,320
Speaker 5: we did a predictions episode and then we revise it

477
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:11,840
Speaker 5: every week. Yes, to do that something? Yeah, yeah, that's

478
00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:14,360
Speaker 5: how Yeah, exactly.

479
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:15,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the only other option.

480
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:17,160
Speaker 11: Yeah, and I'll for all you, for all you listen,

481
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:19,359
Speaker 11: go back to the episodes. We actually changed every single

482
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 11: episode if you go back.

483
00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:21,960
Speaker 5: So that's that is.

484
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:22,920
Speaker 4: What Skip Bayless does.

485
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:25,200
Speaker 14: Skip Bayless has said everything once and so he was

486
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:26,919
Speaker 14: always like I've been telling you forever.

487
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:29,239
Speaker 4: Like now he's like a lebron fan. I'm like, how

488
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,200
Speaker 4: have you pivoted? How have you been able to pull

489
00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:32,680
Speaker 4: this off?

490
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:35,320
Speaker 11: Pull the tape up from two thousand and two, not

491
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:37,720
Speaker 11: stop can't win.

492
00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,120
Speaker 5: But the league's definitely more fun when the nets are

493
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,600
Speaker 5: good and the nets are absolutely on a tear. I

494
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:46,919
Speaker 5: was wondering, like, because this does feel like are we

495
00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:48,680
Speaker 5: seeing the same thing that we saw with the Celtics

496
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:52,040
Speaker 5: last year where they were like kind of subpar for

497
00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:54,359
Speaker 5: a little bit of the season and then put it together.

498
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:56,920
Speaker 5: But I was like, how many What was the most

499
00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,680
Speaker 5: the Celtics won last year? And nine was the most

500
00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,760
Speaker 5: they want in a row, So twelve twelve is pretty

501
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 5: I mean, that's that's that's pretty crazy. I know the

502
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 5: Suns did at one point seventeen I think last year,

503
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 5: but that's are just fun. I don't know. Katie is

504
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 5: so fun to watch.

505
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean even killing him. Pope was in the

506
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 3: house watching being like, oh, little basket balls.

507
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,359
Speaker 11: There's this one shot where like Katie just you know,

508
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:26,879
Speaker 11: hitting the easy jump shot or whatever, and like the

509
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 11: way killing him. Bope, the soccer players on the sidelines,

510
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:30,960
Speaker 11: he was like rubbing his mids.

511
00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:35,199
Speaker 5: He's like, whoa, yeah, maybe he just like doesn't know

512
00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:39,200
Speaker 5: that scoring is much more common. You know, it's just crazy.

513
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:41,359
Speaker 5: Every time.

514
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 4: Guess good sick he had just he had had.

515
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 14: Tricks held Chamberlain stats had just popped in at.

516
00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:54,920
Speaker 4: Pope.

517
00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:58,600
Speaker 3: All right, let's take a quick break.

518
00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,480
Speaker 11: We'll come back right after this to talk about some

519
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:04,000
Speaker 11: other outstanding performances right after this.

520
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:15,200
Speaker 5: And we're back.

521
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:16,120
Speaker 3: We're back.

522
00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:18,479
Speaker 5: Does everybody just want to take a turn saying it

523
00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:20,720
Speaker 5: as Trump Miles, I think you had the best one

524
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:21,880
Speaker 5: before we start a recording.

525
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 3: Well, we love them, tony folks. Victor Wembright, I think

526
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:31,159
Speaker 3: I did a better one in the warm up, but

527
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:33,119
Speaker 3: I was better in the warm up. But hey, it

528
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:33,840
Speaker 3: is what it is.

529
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:33,720
Speaker 7: This.

530
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:38,440
Speaker 5: Uh So, this is Miami game, Like every every preseason

531
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:42,240
Speaker 5: game feels like an event, unlike anything I've ever I'm

532
00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:46,119
Speaker 5: typically kind of a don't get too excited by the

533
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:54,320
Speaker 5: preseason person just because I've because my team just for

534
00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:56,200
Speaker 5: the past few years have been the seventy six ers,

535
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,560
Speaker 5: and so it's just like I can only take so much,

536
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,720
Speaker 5: you know, I can only invest so much of myself

537
00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:06,520
Speaker 5: into that team. But this is like, I can't think

538
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,119
Speaker 5: of a time when I've ever been this excited about

539
00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:14,359
Speaker 5: every preseason game. And so the Miami Heat, like I

540
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:16,080
Speaker 5: don't know, I feel like I know all of these

541
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:19,760
Speaker 5: highlights now, like by heart, like I all the all

542
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:21,719
Speaker 5: the blocks, like some of the like where you can

543
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:22,560
Speaker 5: test with one.

544
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:26,560
Speaker 16: Step from the like basically the three.

545
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:31,240
Speaker 3: Come on, man, what Yeah that one was wild.

546
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:36,400
Speaker 5: He's not shooting great from three. He is blocking. I

547
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:39,560
Speaker 5: really think he's whether they give him Defensive Player of

548
00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:41,960
Speaker 5: the Year or not, I think he is going to

549
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:44,879
Speaker 5: affect more shots than any And this is crazy, Like

550
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 5: I've gone from being like I've got this crazy idea

551
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 5: that he could be defensive Player of the Year to

552
00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:52,080
Speaker 5: be like, it's a given, this guy can be defensive

553
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:52,720
Speaker 5: player of the year.

554
00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,440
Speaker 11: And I was saying, like, even without maybe the stats

555
00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:57,960
Speaker 11: I have, Like it looks like what everyone's been saying

556
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,600
Speaker 11: even when we first saw him. And at some it's

557
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:04,280
Speaker 11: like he's just going to change the subconscious of offensive players.

558
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:06,600
Speaker 5: You could just see it. Every time the other team

559
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 5: has the ball and he's in there, like they're just

560
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:12,920
Speaker 5: like you can see that they're worried about where he

561
00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,640
Speaker 5: is and like not taking shots they normally would take.

562
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 5: And like even in that first preseason game win he

563
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:21,080
Speaker 5: only had one block. It was like the one the

564
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:22,959
Speaker 5: one time that somebody was willing to shoot with him

565
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,200
Speaker 5: around was when they thought they had beat him by

566
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:27,399
Speaker 5: like five steps, and they had to beat him by

567
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:29,840
Speaker 5: five steps and he still blocked them.

568
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:35,520
Speaker 16: Yeah, so like that okay, Yeah, Jalen literally put him

569
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:38,320
Speaker 16: in a spence CC Like there's a point when Wimby's

570
00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:40,720
Speaker 16: back is turned to a driving Jalen Williams and he

571
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 16: takes like two strides and punches it out of him.

572
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,439
Speaker 5: And it seems like it seems like Miami, you know,

573
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:48,720
Speaker 5: in a couple of ways were like, all right, guys,

574
00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 5: like don't don't let it get in your head, like

575
00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 5: he's not going to block everything. You're just like and

576
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:57,439
Speaker 5: they were taking shots that they normally would have taken

577
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 5: if there was a seven footer on the court, and

578
00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:04,280
Speaker 5: he was blocking them at like like one of them

579
00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 5: was kind of like a floater that he blocked at

580
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 5: the peak of the balls like arc in the air.

581
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:14,840
Speaker 5: Like I was like, is that goaltending? I don't know,

582
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:15,840
Speaker 5: Like I've.

583
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 3: Never seen someone block it at that point.

584
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:24,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's how what's his wingspan eight feet? His wingspan

585
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:26,080
Speaker 5: is eight feet?

586
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:29,200
Speaker 9: Is eight eight feet?

587
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:31,400
Speaker 5: Like I guess, I guess I had heard that, but

588
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:34,960
Speaker 5: like to see it in motion is a whole other thing.

589
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:37,960
Speaker 16: And hands straight up it looks like he's like got

590
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 16: a nine to seven nine eight reach when you didn't

591
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:41,520
Speaker 16: measure it that way, or it.

592
00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:43,800
Speaker 11: Looks like when someone's yeah, working with like a shooting

593
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:45,480
Speaker 11: coach and they have to they use like a broom

594
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:48,280
Speaker 11: to simulate like a like a defender, except he's like

595
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:49,000
Speaker 11: holding two.

596
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:52,000
Speaker 3: Brooms, Like that's what the length looks like. I'm like,

597
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:53,120
Speaker 3: is that serious?

598
00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:56,360
Speaker 5: I feel like he's gonna First of all, the Cornet

599
00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:59,640
Speaker 5: contest is now a legitimate like you know the thing

600
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:01,919
Speaker 5: we alway talked about last year that Luke Cornette from

601
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 5: the Celtics would like stand in the lane and just

602
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,320
Speaker 5: jump while someone was taking a three and it would

603
00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 5: be distracting and like people, you know, it's the same

604
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,719
Speaker 5: like Shane Batier used to cover people's eyes as they

605
00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:15,880
Speaker 5: were shooting, and like it affected their shooting percentage more

606
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:20,119
Speaker 5: than like you might expect. Like I feel like like

607
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:25,280
Speaker 5: accidentally blocked some of those shots just from doesn't make sense,

608
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:27,080
Speaker 5: but like that's the feeling you get.

609
00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:31,719
Speaker 11: Yeah, completely, I mean, are you are You're I'm guessing

610
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:34,720
Speaker 11: you seem excited dragonfly, like are you? I know a

611
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 11: lot of people again, other people are doing this with Wemby.

612
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:39,280
Speaker 9: It's preseason, man.

613
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 3: That's there's the preseason right there, Come on, preseason man, guy.

614
00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:46,600
Speaker 5: It is actually a lot of people don't know that.

615
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:54,640
Speaker 5: But his cousin is the defense guy. Yeah, exactly, can tell.

616
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:56,000
Speaker 5: You can tell that they've been a lot of time

617
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:56,840
Speaker 5: talking to each other.

618
00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:01,000
Speaker 11: With the hater kingdoms what about defense? And it only preseason, man,

Speaker 11: got it great?

620
00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:07,200
Speaker 16: I am super excited about this because the one play

621
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,520

625
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:20,760
Speaker 16: And I want to be clearing for the listeners. He

626
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:22,760
Speaker 16: didn't jump from outside the restrict area.

627
00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 11: His entire body was outside when he dunk.

628
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:31,960
Speaker 5: When he dunked on somebody who is also standing outside

629
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:36,280
Speaker 5: of the restricted area, like Thomas Bryant's feet are like

630
00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,040
Speaker 5: right at the edge of the restricted area and he

631
00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:42,040
Speaker 5: dunks on him.

641
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:34,080
Speaker 5: Brian's performance in this moment is one of my favorite performances.

642
00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 5: Like just like if you could give an Academy Award

643
00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 5: to somebody, like not that he's acting, but just like

644
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:42,040
Speaker 5: everything about his what he's doing with his body and

645
00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 5: faith is so perfect. And he didn't even have like

646
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 5: the opportunity to act, like, you know, have his ego

647
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:49,880
Speaker 5: be like okay, let's just shake it off. Shake it off,

648
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 5: you know like.

649
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:52,719
Speaker 11: Most play players and they get absolutely posterized.

650
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:54,920
Speaker 18: They're like, okay, keep it moving, don't don't acknowledge the

651
00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 18: l you just he is so sincerely confused, Like it's

652
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:02,600
Speaker 18: almost like it's half like looking at his teammates like hey,

653
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:04,720
Speaker 18: why do y'all let him do that to me kind

654
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:09,120
Speaker 18: of thing, and then also him fully just like like he's.

655
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,000
Speaker 16: Like a human should not be able to do this. Yeah,

656
00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:13,440
Speaker 16: there's that element of it too. It's like the best

657
00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:17,040
Speaker 16: breaking up the fourth wall since Andrew buying him. Laugh

658
00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:21,000
Speaker 16: at us, laugh with us when Blake dunked, remember that.

659
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:25,000
Speaker 11: Yeah, Yeah, he's gonna like he.

660
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:31,240
Speaker 5: Spikes the camera like Jim in the office, Like, uh,

661
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:33,120
Speaker 5: it's really amazing.

662
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:33,720
Speaker 3: Shell shocked.

663
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 11: Like it's like it's remind me like Tom Tom Hanks

664
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:40,760
Speaker 11: in the beginning Private Ryan where he's like, yeah, even

665
00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:41,800
Speaker 11: hearing the crowd, it's like.

666
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:46,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah that like high pitched wine. I do like,

667
00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:51,240
Speaker 5: I think we need to think, uh seriously about making

668
00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:55,280
Speaker 5: Thomas Bryant our patron saying of the business decision because

669
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 5: not that not that he like really had an option there,

670
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 5: Like yeah, he didn't have a chance to make a

671
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:05,320
Speaker 5: business decision, but his reaction to being posterized was like

672
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:08,320
Speaker 5: he was martyred so that others could live.

673
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:10,960
Speaker 3: So that others could learn. Maybe this ain't this might

674
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:13,600
Speaker 3: not be the guy to try it, but what.

675
00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:14,040
Speaker 5: Do you do?

676
00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 3: Like he stopped them outside the restrictory.

677
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:23,840
Speaker 16: You're like it was supposed to be jump hook time, not.

678
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:24,720
Speaker 3: Watch this young man just put that in over your head.

679
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:28,160
Speaker 3: It was like, let me get right by your thank you.

680
00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:31,560
Speaker 11: Yeah, going the way, It's like it's truly. Yeah, his

681
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,120
Speaker 11: confusion I think embodies everyone. That's why I'm like when

682
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 11: people are trying to throw cold water on I'm like, y'all,

683
00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:41,400
Speaker 11: he's leaving players on the court confused and just oriented

684
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:43,640
Speaker 11: by his size and what he's doing like that, to

685
00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:45,920
Speaker 11: me is the greatest indicator of like everyone, like.

686
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:48,440
Speaker 3: Okay, so this is a problem. Yeah this is not

687
00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 3: what do we do now?

688
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:52,760
Speaker 11: Because I don't even know, like where is this going?

689
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:55,240
Speaker 11: But yeah, not everyone. You know, when they get those,

690
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 11: it's time to decide do I get out the way

691
00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,800
Speaker 11: or maybe jump up with somebody and can test is dunk?

692
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:04,360
Speaker 11: I think there there could be a plenty of poor

693
00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:06,080
Speaker 11: business decisions this season.

694
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:10,440
Speaker 5: The mid range game is suproducer Jabari was calling out

695
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:13,240
Speaker 5: the mid range game is like really crazy right now,

696
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 5: Like and by the way he can dunk from the

697
00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:22,640
Speaker 5: mid range like that, I'm including that, but like his

698
00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:26,920
Speaker 5: mid range jumpers and like just beautiful footwork. It really

699
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 5: is beautiful.

700
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:30,320
Speaker 16: Like it's like like we haven't seen a seven foot

701
00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 16: guy you know, moved away like that with the in

702
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:34,240
Speaker 16: the mid range, with the with the mid range you

703
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 16: know jumpers and all that, like KD like that's what

00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:37,760
Speaker 16: he reminds me of when I see that.

705
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:45,240
Speaker 11: Yeah, except seven to five, right, unbelievable, Bro, It's un Yeah,

Speaker 3: I'm just feel like I'm seeing new kinds.

709
00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:55,000
Speaker 11: We're seeing the sport evolve in like it's minor ways,

710
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:58,840
Speaker 11: but we're definitely at the dawn of something very new.

711
00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:00,520
Speaker 3: And that's the That's all we.

712
00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:02,760
Speaker 11: Want is fans, you know what I mean, Keep it

715
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:10,200
Speaker 5: The ant Man came with forty four, six and four

716
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:15,279
Speaker 5: versus the Rockets, and this brings us to our best

717
00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:18,120
Speaker 5: and worst business decision of the way the week.

718
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:20,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, some real business decisions were made.

719
00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 11: We also have to go back in December to analyze

720
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:25,800
Speaker 11: another poor business decision or great business decision.

721
00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:28,880
Speaker 3: But who would you like to start with? Mister Anthony Edwards.

722
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:35,040
Speaker 5: We are he uh he dunked on al Shngoon in

723
00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:40,600
Speaker 5: a way that seemed premeditated. I think I think it

724
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:44,759
Speaker 5: would qualify as a first degree I.

725
00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:49,520
Speaker 11: Gotta say, Schengers, my man, you gotta jump a little

726
00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:50,600
Speaker 11: bit more than that.

727
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:52,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, just a little bit more.

728
00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:54,600
Speaker 11: You're going You're trying to you're trying to rise up

729
00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:55,640
Speaker 11: with Anthony Edwards.

730
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:57,160
Speaker 3: You've got to give me a little more.

731
00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:01,640
Speaker 11: Than like a very light, like volleyball block type elevation.

732
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:02,799
Speaker 3: But I get it.

733
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, well you know what I like his attempt at verticality. Yeah,

734
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:10,640
Speaker 5: basically it was that, and he got used Anthony Iwarys

735
00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:13,440
Speaker 5: used him to like, you know, he was like it

736
00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:15,480
Speaker 5: was like a pommel horse a little bit, you know,

737
00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:18,160
Speaker 5: and just pushed up a little bit. Because when you

738
00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:20,719
Speaker 5: see like the start of his jump, he's jumping from

739
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:23,840
Speaker 5: like inside the circle, like a under the free throw line,

740
00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:26,080
Speaker 5: and then just like kind of grabs him and like

741
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:29,319
Speaker 5: pushes a little bit and then violence ensues.

742
00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:33,759
Speaker 19: Yeah, it's just yeah, when you slow it down like that, No,

743
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:36,840
Speaker 19: just that, like right when it's about to go in,

744
00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:40,640
Speaker 19: you're like, schengers, my man, poor business decision there.

745
00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:41,839
Speaker 3: It's not caught twice?

746
00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:44,719
Speaker 5: Right, it was twice yeah yeah yeah, And then the

747
00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 5: second one was with both hands and it just seemed Yeah,

748
00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:53,839
Speaker 5: it was just like he was like, oh, I now

749
00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:57,840
Speaker 5: recognize that this man is not functionally, this man is

750
00:35:57,880 --> 00:35:59,960
Speaker 5: not here, so I can just do this. I can

751
00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:02,600
Speaker 5: to go through him with the ball and dunk on

752
00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:05,080
Speaker 5: him and sure enough at.

753
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:07,839
Speaker 9: As sharp as to be defensively.

754
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:19,400
Speaker 11: Shanger, big shanky, my man, sir, you got you gotta

776
00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:20,280
Speaker 5: moves when it comes to making a smart business decision?

777
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:24,480
Speaker 5: We have the opposite of that in a from last month.

778
00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:30,480
Speaker 11: Yeah, with dry Sham Landry. Look, it was a tough go.

779
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:33,200
Speaker 11: He goes for a game winner, it's not to be.

780
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:38,640
Speaker 11: And then Aaron Gordon he's coming, He's he's coming for you, sir,

781
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:40,680
Speaker 11: and you got to decide. You got to make a

782
00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:42,600
Speaker 11: business decision. Do you want to be on a poster?

783
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:46,239
Speaker 11: Do you go up possibly injure yourself terribly. We'll just

784
00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:51,440
Speaker 11: see how this one played out.

785
00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:54,240
Speaker 5: Miss here he does Gor's coming and oh.

786
00:37:56,920 --> 00:38:02,920
Speaker 11: Shammit, you could have got real hurt there and calling off.

787
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:04,840
Speaker 3: There's but they didn't. It ended up counting.

788
00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:10,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, they it got challenged and reversed. My man, he

789
00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:13,880
Speaker 5: got dunked on then landed on twice somehow like a

790
00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:16,759
Speaker 5: wrestling move like off the top roof. That was just

791
00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:19,520
Speaker 5: like whole Colgan leg dropped him or that was wow.

792
00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:21,680
Speaker 5: I mean, look at the way he tries it. He

793
00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:23,520
Speaker 5: tries to absorb this, He's like, you know what, this

794
00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:26,239
Speaker 5: is a screen. But the way his spine curves when

795
00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:29,080
Speaker 5: it makes contact with Aaron Gordon, I thought he was

796
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:30,239
Speaker 5: high jumping right here.

797
00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:34,960
Speaker 3: The way he's arching that back Aaron is yeah.

798
00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:38,880
Speaker 5: Yes, he is horizontal to the court.

799
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:42,280
Speaker 3: Then on the way down, his head is right underneath

800
00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:44,680
Speaker 3: Aaron Gordon's feet, where like he could have arrently just

801
00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:48,840
Speaker 3: landed and I used that pun very intentionally, uh like

802
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:50,680
Speaker 3: straight on man's skull.

803
00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:53,680
Speaker 11: But he, like luckily, was like, oh gosh, He's like,

804
00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:55,520
Speaker 11: young man, you gotta be careful.

805
00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:55,640
Speaker 2: Man.

806
00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:56,960
Speaker 9: When I go up like that, I could have really

807
00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:57,319
Speaker 9: hurt you.

808
00:38:57,600 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 3: It's a poor business decision.

809
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:01,560
Speaker 5: He had to do it right. So the context of

810
00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:04,880
Speaker 5: the game is there's less than a minute left and

811
00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:08,400
Speaker 5: over time there's mere seconds. Chammit had just missed a

812
00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:12,960
Speaker 5: shot down one. Then he comes down and it's a breakaway.

813
00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:15,439
Speaker 5: You have to put your body on the line. What

814
00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:19,320
Speaker 5: we are looking for from our candidate for the NBA

815
00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:25,400
Speaker 5: Award of Business Decision uh nickname award winner is somebody

816
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 5: who in a moment like that, was like, nah, it's

817
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:34,640
Speaker 5: not worth we're out, Like you know, the ultimate business

818
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:37,160
Speaker 5: decision games on the line, and he's like, I mean

819
00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:39,439
Speaker 5: he's gonna dunk on me. I don't want I don't

820
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:39,839
Speaker 5: want that.

821
00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:42,640
Speaker 20: So do you want them to run away or is

822
00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:44,000
Speaker 20: it when they jump and they're like no, when they

823
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:45,879
Speaker 20: kind of just turn yeah and just do.

824
00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:49,440
Speaker 3: What is more what would be more like I guess

825
00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:50,880
Speaker 3: the beholder.

826
00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:53,360
Speaker 5: You know, you'll know when you see the the ultimate

827
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:57,280
Speaker 5: business decision, like the Supreme Court says.

828
00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:59,600
Speaker 3: More is it is it just a back turn to

829
00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:00,600
Speaker 3: be like I never.

830
00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:02,960
Speaker 11: I never wanted part of this, or is it a

831
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:04,800
Speaker 11: full on vacating the premises.

832
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:08,400
Speaker 5: It's not theatricality like if they build an excuse in

833
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:11,360
Speaker 5: where they like go down to tie their shoe, you know,

834
00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:16,239
Speaker 5: oh wow, they're like, oh no, I've slipped right or

835
00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:17,000
Speaker 5: something like that.

836
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:19,399
Speaker 20: I mean, I think you're going to get somebody who's

837
00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:20,799
Speaker 20: going to pull on for at gump out of that

838
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:25,680
Speaker 20: point and out of the pain, like yeah, just keeps running.

839
00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:32,080
Speaker 11: The total right right right, or someone's just going to

840
00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:34,359
Speaker 11: pretend to like you know when you see sprinters and

841
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:37,440
Speaker 11: like qualifying heats and stuff like sometimes they pull up

842
00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:39,719
Speaker 11: lame when they know they're not going to have race

843
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:41,120
Speaker 11: this is ahead and be like no, I'm not gonna

844
00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:43,960
Speaker 11: get cooked right now. Someone's goes ah no, no, no, no no,

845
00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:45,680
Speaker 11: it's just like limps away to be.

846
00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:48,919
Speaker 5: Like have clear the second hamstring pool.

847
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:53,040
Speaker 11: Yeah, but again, let us know if you have a

848
00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:55,880
Speaker 11: famous business decision from years past, please put that on

849
00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:58,520
Speaker 11: our radar because these are the kinds of things, These

850
00:40:58,520 --> 00:40:59,879
Speaker 11: are kinds of issues we tackle on.

851
00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:04,840
Speaker 5: This show, important issues. To your point about adrenaline. My

852
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:08,399
Speaker 5: dad was an NBA coach and one time I had

853
00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:13,160
Speaker 5: a friend come with me to a game and he

854
00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:17,120
Speaker 5: came back to the locker room after it was a win,

855
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:22,080
Speaker 5: and Tony Batti was on my dad's team, and he

856
00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:25,880
Speaker 5: went by Batman and my friend was wearing a Batman

857
00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:28,000
Speaker 5: shirt and he was like, oh, hi, Ryan, I see

858
00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:30,840
Speaker 5: you my dad And my friend was like, look, I

859
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:33,480
Speaker 5: wore the Batman shirt, like you know Tony Batti Batman.

860
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:36,120
Speaker 5: What do you think. My dad said, I hate it.

861
00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:40,160
Speaker 5: I think it stinks. And it was like he'd never

862
00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:43,360
Speaker 5: really like met this guy before. It was just and

863
00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:46,120
Speaker 5: like he I don't think he meant it, Like I

864
00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:48,279
Speaker 5: don't know what he meant. I guess it's something that

865
00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:50,759
Speaker 5: my friend that I like still talk about. But it's like,

866
00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:53,560
Speaker 5: I just don't think you are in your right mind

867
00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:56,200
Speaker 5: after a game, like the fact that I think about that,

868
00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:58,520
Speaker 5: I'll often like what the fact that like players have

869
00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:01,880
Speaker 5: to go out there and like just answer questions that

870
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:06,200
Speaker 5: are then analyzed, like the Zapruder film exactly.

871
00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:07,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's tough. It's tough.

872
00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:09,759
Speaker 11: I mean, like, the last thing I'll say is like

873
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:12,000
Speaker 11: if the most cynical reading of it is like it

874
00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:15,880
Speaker 11: was spot on, it was that simple. And suppose answer

875
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:18,080
Speaker 11: is like you got caught serving like a store bock

876
00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:20,920
Speaker 11: cake at a dinner, like as if you baked it.

877
00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:23,359
Speaker 3: Is this a store box? Oh my gosh, you think

878
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:24,560
Speaker 3: this is a store bock cake.

879
00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:29,560
Speaker 11: Wow, that's something who doesn't know anything about baking would say, yeah,

880
00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:30,560
Speaker 11: because no, this.

881
00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:34,360
Speaker 21: Is funny, Like that's obviously the funniest possibility there, but

882
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:37,279
Speaker 21: sadly the most likely it's probably just like he was

883
00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:39,719
Speaker 21: agitated and he went a little I mean, he went

884
00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:41,520
Speaker 21: a little too little.

885
00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:44,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know how things are.

886
00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:46,879
Speaker 21: I work for bleacher Whore. You know you watch those

887
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:52,000
Speaker 21: press conference take clips out like not that like in

888
00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:54,000
Speaker 21: my job, you know, I purposely make sure I'm not

889
00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:56,520
Speaker 21: taking things out of context. But like you can't just

890
00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:59,600
Speaker 21: get embarrassed in press conferences anymore, and like no one

891
00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:02,520
Speaker 21: hears about it. You know it's like, yeah, I don't know,

892
00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:05,440
Speaker 21: kind of embarrassing someone like that and then making those

893
00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:08,640
Speaker 21: rounds online when like you know that it's not the best,

894
00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:11,200
Speaker 21: but I mean, it's nothing to like, it's not a

895
00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:13,399
Speaker 21: judgment on his character. I mean, like we've said, it's

896
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:15,759
Speaker 21: a weird, a weird situation.

897
00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:19,319
Speaker 5: Especially as she opened up saying this is probably oversimplifying it.

898
00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:22,720
Speaker 5: Oh oh gosh, maybe maybe that made him feel comfortable

899
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:25,400
Speaker 5: to just be like, yeah, it is oversimplifying it. And

900
00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:27,239
Speaker 5: we we did talk about a clip earlier in the

901
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:30,520
Speaker 5: playoffs where somebody asks Spoe like, so, how do you

902
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:33,600
Speaker 5: plan on like covering Randall? And he had kind of

903
00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:37,840
Speaker 5: a similar response, but like with you know, probably thirty

904
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:42,440
Speaker 5: degrees less stress and anxiety and adrenaline, where he was

905
00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:47,400
Speaker 5: just like, first of all, like he is an incredible player,

906
00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:51,480
Speaker 5: and like you can't just figure him out right. Second

907
00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:56,040
Speaker 5: of all, if I had a solution, I definitely wouldn't

908
00:43:56,080 --> 00:44:01,720
Speaker 5: tell you. I love that answer, so I mean, taken

909
00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:05,440
Speaker 5: in that context, like I don't know, maybe maybe he

910
00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:06,200
Speaker 5: should have said that.

911
00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:08,719
Speaker 21: Yeah, but you know that's why, like your point about

912
00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:10,800
Speaker 21: your dad and the story and everything, like, that's why

913
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:14,280
Speaker 21: I personally have never been someone who like is mad

914
00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:17,440
Speaker 21: when a player skips press availability. That being said, if

915
00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:19,520
Speaker 21: they're doing it every single game, like at that point,

916
00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:22,160
Speaker 21: it's you know a problem or even frequently, but like

917
00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:27,040
Speaker 21: after like a high intense to your high stress like situation,

918
00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:32,840
Speaker 21: it is okay in my opinion to be like I

919
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:34,600
Speaker 21: I can't do this right now. I don't want to

920
00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:37,120
Speaker 21: do this right now, like to take the fine. I mean, who,

921
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:39,359
Speaker 21: like what does that really affect me? I wouldn't want

922
00:44:39,400 --> 00:44:42,360
Speaker 21: to sit up there and answer questions after being embarrassed.

923
00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:47,319
Speaker 5: Yeah, especially when the questions are sometimes like so that

924
00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:49,640
Speaker 5: bad thing that happened where you like, did your job

925
00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:53,560
Speaker 5: bad like happen? What was going on for your mind?

926
00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:54,080
Speaker 9: And like.

927
00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:59,560
Speaker 5: You know, this is how you feed your family. A

928
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:02,440

Speaker 6: the in Arena challenge shots, you know, the lay up,

996
00:47:49,080 --> 00:47:50,959
Speaker 6: the free throw, the three pointer, and a half court,

997
00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:53,680
Speaker 6: which fan base or fan bases would you bet on.

998
00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:55,319
Speaker 15: I'm gonna go with the Lakers because I've seen it

999
00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:56,440
Speaker 15: happen several times.

1000
00:47:56,480 --> 00:47:57,960
Speaker 9: Now, you know why is that?

1001
00:47:58,040 --> 00:47:59,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, they're so good.

1002
00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:01,399
Speaker 15: Every time you can see Janie's face and it's like, oh,

1003
00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:07,480
Speaker 15: we don't have this bag to give y'all up though

1004
00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:09,520
Speaker 15: he's like, oh damn, matt Ryang gonna get booted. Or

1005
00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:14,040
Speaker 15: every time you know, somebody somebody like no, you know,

1006
00:48:14,280 --> 00:48:16,600
Speaker 15: he's smiling, but he's like, damn, all right, there's my

1007
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:18,880
Speaker 15: walking papers. But I think the Lakers fan base I

1008
00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:21,279
Speaker 15: probably seen the most hit the half quarters. And I

1009
00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:22,759
Speaker 15: forget what team it was, but they had the Jank

1010
00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:24,400
Speaker 15: one where like they hit a half quarter and won like.

1011
00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:25,040
Speaker 9: Five hundred bucks.

1012
00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:27,839
Speaker 5: Those the Indiana Pacers. That's what made us come up

1013
00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:33,560
Speaker 5: with this question. For that was our questions like is

1014
00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:37,680
Speaker 5: it so commonplace? Is everybody just so pure born with

1015
00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:40,400
Speaker 5: a basketball in their hand? In Indiana that like it's

1016
00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:43,040
Speaker 5: They're just like, yeah, we'll give you five hundred bucks whatever,

1017
00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:43,480
Speaker 5: that's fair.

1018
00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:44,919
Speaker 9: It is the HOOI state.

1019
00:48:45,080 --> 00:48:48,879
Speaker 5: It is all right, dreams scripted basketball movie to commit.

1020
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:52,360
Speaker 5: You know, we just found out about Air, the movie

1021
00:48:53,239 --> 00:48:56,760
Speaker 5: starring Matt Damon and Ben Affleck somehow about the invention

1022
00:48:56,840 --> 00:49:01,080
Speaker 5: of the Air Jordan shoe, that they didn't even cast

1023
00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:03,799
Speaker 5: anyone as Michael Jordan. He's just like a presence, a

1024
00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:08,040
Speaker 5: gravitational black hole in the yeah.

1025
00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:09,520
Speaker 9: The back of a fort, like the back of the head, at.

1026
00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:11,319
Speaker 5: Least the back of the head. Yeah. Like there's a

1027
00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:13,960
Speaker 5: shot in the trailer of the back of the head

1028
00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:18,360
Speaker 5: with him walking into the Nike offices. And then I so,

1029
00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:20,839
Speaker 5: I was like, who they get to play Jordan? Because

1030
00:49:20,880 --> 00:49:24,480
Speaker 5: you that that seems impossible, right, He's just like so iconic,

1031
00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:27,040
Speaker 5: you can't get anybody, You can't cast anybody to play him.

1032
00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:30,879
Speaker 5: And they said they specifically didn't cast anyone. He's just

1033
00:49:30,920 --> 00:49:31,880
Speaker 5: this presence.

1034
00:49:32,360 --> 00:49:34,879
Speaker 9: But they should have got never started to play Larry Jordan.

1035
00:49:37,520 --> 00:49:38,960
Speaker 9: It's going to be flex Alexander.

1036
00:49:41,160 --> 00:49:43,319
Speaker 15: Hey, the Michael Jordan Lifetime movie was one of the

1037

Speaker 5: stuff that they use for the Lord of the Rings.

1051
00:50:18,040 --> 00:50:22,600

1052
00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:25,560
Speaker 15: Flashbacks to Bowl Bull like that latest screen movie, but

1053
00:50:25,640 --> 00:50:27,120

00:50:32,920 --> 00:50:33,440
Speaker 9: Keeping it going?

1056
00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:36,000
Speaker 3: We're gonna play getting in or headed home? In mid April,

1057
00:50:36,239 --> 00:50:38,759
Speaker 3: the Brooklyn Nets, the team is still nine games over

1058
00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:39,440
Speaker 3: five hundred.

1059
00:50:39,440 --> 00:50:41,240
Speaker 6: They hold a seven game lead in the lost column

1060
00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:44,399
Speaker 6: over the current ten seed with under twenty five games left.

1061
00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:45,759
Speaker 3: Are they getting in or they going home?

1062
00:50:45,960 --> 00:50:47,120
Speaker 9: Yeahst they're getting it.

1063
00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:48,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, they're getting it fair enough.

1064
00:50:48,880 --> 00:50:51,440
Speaker 6: All right, here's one the Pelicans because many of us

1065
00:50:51,560 --> 00:50:53,560
Speaker 6: you know, we anticipated a big year for New Orleans.

1066
00:50:53,640 --> 00:50:55,560
Speaker 3: Some were a little bit higher on them than the others.

1067
00:50:56,000 --> 00:50:58,360
Speaker 6: But the team finds itself currently just a game and

1068
00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:00,920
Speaker 6: a half up on the eleven seed out West, and

1069
00:51:01,040 --> 00:51:03,000
Speaker 6: reports are that Zion could miss a good chunk in

1070
00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:05,360
Speaker 6: the Remainian schedule due to reaggravating the samstring.

1071
00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:07,400
Speaker 15: Are they getting in or they going home? Well, they

1072
00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:09,960
Speaker 15: might be at the crib. But you know, I love Zion,

1073
00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:13,320
Speaker 15: love be I love that crew, love CJ. McCollum, and uh,

1074
00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:15,040
Speaker 15: you know, even what they did last year trying to

1075
00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:17,600
Speaker 15: you know, sneaking into too the plane. But I might

1076
00:51:17,640 --> 00:51:20,520
Speaker 15: I think I might be at the crib because the

1077
00:51:20,560 --> 00:51:21,520
Speaker 15: Lakers are getting in.

1078
00:51:22,719 --> 00:51:25,680
Speaker 5: Someone's gotta go. Someone's gotta you know, look around, look

1079
00:51:25,719 --> 00:51:27,440
Speaker 5: to your left, look to your right. One of one

1080
00:51:27,480 --> 00:51:29,799
Speaker 5: of them can't be there, maybe both of them. So

1081
00:51:29,800 --> 00:51:33,759
Speaker 5: they gotta They gotta leaf frog the Thunder, the Blazers,

1082
00:51:34,040 --> 00:51:35,920

1087
00:51:52,560 --> 00:51:56,040

Speaker 15: what we were able to accomplish back in those days.

1091

Speaker 15: But a bag of chili cheese free dos. And this

1092
00:52:06,160 --> 00:52:08,399
Speaker 15: is a regional thing. They do it like in the South.

1093
00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:10,040
Speaker 15: They do it, but they turn the bag the wrong way.

1094
00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:12,399
Speaker 15: We like to bag straight up. But you can eat

1095
00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:14,359
Speaker 15: do it with doritos too, But take the free dos.

1096
00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:16,480
Speaker 15: You actually put some cheddar cheese, some chili in there.

1097
00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:19,680
Speaker 15: If it's a nice snack snack check throw some onions

00:52:24,239 --> 00:52:25,680
Speaker 15: to play like four or five games.

1101
00:52:26,360 --> 00:52:27,760
Speaker 3: You were doing that before tournaments?

1115
00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:04,320
Speaker 15: talking about like the bigger like you know, big hole pizza,

1116
00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:07,080
Speaker 15: like two big pazukis, you.

1117
00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:08,319
Speaker 9: Know what I mean, within like.

1118
00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:11,000
Speaker 15: The pazuki with like the big you know, we used

Speaker 15: to finish Bja's in Westwood back in the day. It's

1120
00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:16,400
Speaker 15: my birthday today, Like you know, my birthday probably sixty

1121
00:53:16,400 --> 00:53:18,600
Speaker 15: five times every time you go into bj because they

1122
00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:19,800
Speaker 15: had to give you a free pazuki.

1123
00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:21,640
Speaker 9: Then he would put a pazuki on top of that.

1124
00:53:21,680 --> 00:53:24,200
Speaker 15: But he could take that down and still you know,

1125
00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:26,160
Speaker 15: go out and drop twenty.

1126

1128
00:53:31,239 --> 00:53:34,479
Speaker 6: before the even without the pizza, the two pazukis would

1129
00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:35,040
Speaker 6: have me done.

1130
00:53:35,480 --> 00:53:37,480

1131
00:53:37,480 --> 00:53:39,480
Speaker 15: to eat like that. Like if I ate those two pazukis,

1132
00:53:39,600 --> 00:53:41,000

1202
00:56:32,320 --> 00:56:34,279
Speaker 6: get away with cheating and acting like you made it

1203
00:56:34,320 --> 00:56:34,920
Speaker 6: at the beginning.

1204
00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:39,880

1205
00:56:40,160 --> 00:56:42,239
Speaker 3: will not win Rookie of the Year.

1206
00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:46,000
Speaker 23: Oh oh, I like that. I don't think that body

1207
00:56:46,080 --> 00:56:47,880
Speaker 23: is gonna hold up. I think he's gonna miss some game.

1208
00:56:47,920 --> 00:56:49,760
Speaker 23: I hope he doesn't. I hope he's healthy the whole season.

1209
00:56:51,160 --> 00:56:51,440
Speaker 9: Yeah.

1210
00:56:51,840 --> 00:56:53,680
Speaker 3: I think who's winning?

1211
00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:57,719
Speaker 23: I'm not going to be chat Uh it's I can't

1212
00:56:57,760 --> 00:56:59,799
Speaker 23: I can't think because a lot of people are pitty

1213
00:57:00,160 --> 00:57:02,520
Speaker 23: picking Ice. I guess Chet Homeroom is probably the second

1214
00:57:02,600 --> 00:57:09,160
Speaker 23: most favored, but the kid not Barn Scott. Yeah, yeah

1215

1219
00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:29,120

1220
00:57:29,400 --> 00:57:31,520
Speaker 11: I guess I'll take that as evidence that you know,

1221
00:57:31,600 --> 00:57:32,640
Speaker 11: something's kind of of you.

1222
00:57:33,320 --> 00:57:35,760

00:57:56,200 --> 00:57:58,400
Speaker 23: Bill Clinton and that's why. And I don't want to elaborate,

1229
00:58:02,040 --> 00:58:04,000

1230
00:58:04,040 --> 00:58:08,720
Speaker 23: them flown into uh DC, and that's obviously not why.

1231
00:58:08,960 --> 00:58:10,439
Speaker 3: I just like the other things a lot more.

1232
00:58:10,480 --> 00:58:10,640

Speaker 9: Why this?

1274
00:59:58,240 --> 01:00:01,520
Speaker 3: I believe his name is Alan iver Person. Sure for sure?

1275

Speaker 23: Sure to me he is, Yeah, he's now Yes, the

1276
01:00:07,160 --> 01:00:12,920
Speaker 23: vice president of rebok Basketball, Allen Iverson. Congratulations to him,

1277
01:00:13,040 --> 01:00:15,920
Speaker 23: Which that is a cool story. I really like that

1278
01:00:16,080 --> 01:00:20,520
Speaker 23: a lot. But Ai is one of the most I

1279
01:00:20,880 --> 01:00:24,400
Speaker 23: would say it's hard to find a more interesting athlete,

1280
01:00:24,520 --> 01:00:28,360
Speaker 23: not even just in basketball than he is. Where what

1281
01:00:28,480 --> 01:00:32,840
Speaker 23: he did bringing like like to the culture in the

1282
01:00:32,960 --> 01:00:36,960
Speaker 23: NBA and how people hold him on a pedestal where

1283
01:00:37,200 --> 01:00:39,240
Speaker 23: I've never seen when you see him.

Speaker 3: Yeah, we got to really keep this moving, Blake.

1285
01:00:42,960 --> 01:00:45,760
Speaker 23: So the next question, so if you go back in history, no,

1286
01:00:46,120 --> 01:00:48,680
Speaker 23: I believe the genesis of this was.

1287
01:00:50,960 --> 01:00:53,320
Speaker 11: We have to keep this moving because you are You're

1288

01:01:31,480 --> 01:01:34,520

Speaker 9: Want my spaceship.

1313
01:01:50,640 --> 01:01:52,560

1320
01:02:17,080 --> 01:02:21,480

1321
01:02:22,040 --> 01:02:25,160
Speaker 23: because he will get you the ball back, the swipe,

1322
01:02:25,240 --> 01:02:27,240
Speaker 23: his ability to get steals.

1323
01:02:27,600 --> 01:02:28,200

1330
01:02:50,120 --> 01:02:52,040
Speaker 23: fun to play with. What if I was like a

1331
01:02:52,160 --> 01:02:54,920
Speaker 23: debt left Shrimp and Dirk Navitski to be.

1332
01:02:57,240 --> 01:02:59,120
Speaker 1: I would say, oh, I see what I see? What

1333
01:02:59,160 --> 01:02:59,600
Speaker 1: time it is?

1334
01:03:00,480 --> 01:03:02,000

01:03:11,360 --> 01:03:12,960
Speaker 11: I want you to look us dead in our eyes

1338
01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:16,600
Speaker 11: when you answer this. Pick one, Jabbari or Miles, go

1339
01:03:16,880 --> 01:03:18,760
Speaker 11: right now, go John Miles.

1340
01:03:21,120 --> 01:03:24,160
Speaker 3: What does that mean? I'm going to I'm going Jabbari

1341
01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:24,960
Speaker 3: because he books this.

1342
01:03:27,360 --> 01:03:30,400
Speaker 1: Here it is I mean, it makes this to me.

1343
01:03:30,600 --> 01:03:33,920
Speaker 3: I don't know, Jack still catches strays out here. Look,

1344
01:03:34,000 --> 01:03:35,720
Speaker 3: look how replaceable this show is.

1345
01:03:35,840 --> 01:03:40,440
Speaker 23: Like people on the shirt Jack, you can just have

1346
01:03:40,560 --> 01:03:45,720
Speaker 23: anyone come in, you know, whereas like, wow, yeah, anyway.

1347
01:03:46,360 --> 01:03:51,480
Speaker 3: It straight everybody's yeah, no one's safe. When the street

1348
01:03:51,520 --> 01:03:57,400
Speaker 3: sweepers out, Miles was just available. Yeah wow.

1349
01:03:58,680 --> 01:04:01,320
Speaker 5: And I think I saw you say that the detail

1350
01:04:01,520 --> 01:04:03,919
Speaker 5: of you know, your character and white man can't jump

1351
01:04:04,000 --> 01:04:08,400
Speaker 5: Raymond sticking people up, but being you know, so somebody

1352
01:04:08,400 --> 01:04:12,600
Speaker 5: who hangs around there and is like sixty eight, uh's

1353
01:04:12,640 --> 01:04:17,760
Speaker 5: seven right, yeah, And he was so and they're like,

1354
01:04:18,440 --> 01:04:22,520
Speaker 5: not again, you're the same foot person I know.

1355
01:04:22,880 --> 01:04:25,000
Speaker 13: Right, He's like, no, this ain't me, This ain't me,

1356
01:04:25,600 --> 01:04:26,080
Speaker 13: This ain't me.

1357
01:04:26,520 --> 01:04:29,480
Speaker 3: So you really did pull that sneme directly from his life.

1358
01:04:29,600 --> 01:04:30,800
Speaker 13: Yes, they pulled that directly.

1359
01:04:30,800 --> 01:04:33,360
Speaker 10: For that was one of the first folklore tales that

1360
01:04:33,400 --> 01:04:35,200
Speaker 10: they would tell you back in the seventies when you

1361
01:04:35,240 --> 01:04:35,840
Speaker 10: got to the league.

1362
01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:38,439
Speaker 13: Take the story about Reggie Hardigan and the and.

1363
01:04:38,320 --> 01:04:41,000
Speaker 10: The ski mask robbing the liquor store seven feet and

1364
01:04:41,040 --> 01:04:43,360
Speaker 10: the you know this ain't me. And so that was

1365
01:04:43,400 --> 01:04:45,000
Speaker 10: one of the first things that you heard, and it

1366
01:04:45,120 --> 01:04:48,160
Speaker 10: was funny back in the day. It's a funny story,

1367
01:04:48,200 --> 01:04:49,760
Speaker 10: but when you look at the background and do a

1368
01:04:49,800 --> 01:04:52,080
Speaker 10: little bit more digging in terms of his history, it's

1369
01:04:52,120 --> 01:04:54,720
Speaker 10: actually a sad story. He wound up getting shot on

1370
01:04:54,800 --> 01:04:57,360
Speaker 10: the streets of Detroit, I think at about thirty years old,

1371
01:04:58,000 --> 01:05:01,760
Speaker 10: nineteen seventy two, and so the same same streets that

1372
01:05:01,760 --> 01:05:04,080
Speaker 10: he couldn't get away from that that derailed his career

1373
01:05:04,160 --> 01:05:06,720
Speaker 10: went up leading to his undoing. Spent time in prison

1374
01:05:06,800 --> 01:05:09,680
Speaker 10: Jackson Prison in Michigan for two or three years for

1375
01:05:09,800 --> 01:05:11,680
Speaker 10: armed robbery and a bunch he was robbing a bunch

1376
01:05:11,720 --> 01:05:13,080
Speaker 10: of dope house where he would buy.

1377
01:05:12,920 --> 01:05:14,880
Speaker 3: Dope, and they got to.

1378
01:05:14,840 --> 01:05:16,760
Speaker 10: The point where they got so pissed off at it

1379
01:05:16,800 --> 01:05:18,640
Speaker 10: because the knew it was him seven feet with a

1380
01:05:18,680 --> 01:05:20,480
Speaker 10: ski mask that he came up to a dope hop

1381
01:05:20,560 --> 01:05:23,680
Speaker 10: the house to rob it and two shotgun blasts hit.

1382
01:05:23,600 --> 01:05:26,680
Speaker 13: Him in both legs and he was hospital. Just a crazy,

1383
01:05:26,760 --> 01:05:27,720
Speaker 13: crazy light that.

1384
01:05:28,200 --> 01:05:32,080
Speaker 10: Wow, colorful crazy life that crossed passed a lot of

1385
01:05:32,160 --> 01:05:34,240
Speaker 10: great great NBA all timers.

1386
01:05:34,280 --> 01:05:36,160
Speaker 13: So it's really a fascinating story.

1387
01:05:36,280 --> 01:05:39,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, it sounds amazing. Somebody needs to buy that screenplay

1388
01:05:39,200 --> 01:05:45,680
Speaker 5: post haste. Yeah, I mean it's appropriate like that that

1389
01:05:45,800 --> 01:05:50,240
Speaker 5: you were on our anniversary episode. You are somebody who

1390
01:05:50,640 --> 01:05:55,240
Speaker 5: still condunk, and you know, so you still have the

1391
01:05:55,280 --> 01:05:59,400
Speaker 5: mad boosties that you had in your career. I still

1392
01:05:59,440 --> 01:06:01,840
Speaker 5: have the same ability to dunk that I had in

1393
01:06:01,880 --> 01:06:06,040
Speaker 5: my career, which is which is none I was, but

1394
01:06:06,160 --> 01:06:08,560
Speaker 5: I can still I think, touch the bottom of the net.

1395
01:06:08,800 --> 01:06:12,920
Speaker 5: Uh So in that way we are similar. You can

1396
01:06:12,960 --> 01:06:14,600
Speaker 5: you talk about that like you you dunk?

1397
01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:14,960
Speaker 3: Is it?

1398
01:06:15,040 --> 01:06:16,400
Speaker 5: Every every year? On your birthday?

1399
01:06:16,480 --> 01:06:19,440
Speaker 13: You get my son Josiah thinking of NBA Twitter.

1400
01:06:19,640 --> 01:06:21,440
Speaker 5: Yes, we said that, James.

1401
01:06:21,920 --> 01:06:26,280
Speaker 10: He he brought the idea to me the year that

1402
01:06:26,360 --> 01:06:27,880
Speaker 10: Blake Griffin jumped.

1403
01:06:27,640 --> 01:06:28,280
Speaker 1: Over the Kia.

1404
01:06:28,920 --> 01:06:29,680
Speaker 5: Oh yeah.

1405
01:06:29,720 --> 01:06:30,840
Speaker 13: I was about fifty four.

1406
01:06:30,800 --> 01:06:33,040
Speaker 10: Fifty five years old at the time, and you know,

1407
01:06:33,120 --> 01:06:36,840
Speaker 10: could dunk really easily back then, and so we get

1408
01:06:36,920 --> 01:06:41,800
Speaker 10: we got some matchbox cards or something. Judge, you know,

1409
01:06:41,920 --> 01:06:44,320
Speaker 10: jumped over one to you know, I'm doing the same thing, Blake.

1410
01:06:44,360 --> 01:06:45,320
Speaker 7: I'm a jump over a car.

1411
01:06:45,960 --> 01:06:48,600
Speaker 10: Yeah, and that kind of that created a monsters every

1412
01:06:48,640 --> 01:06:51,200
Speaker 10: year after that. I'm sixty seven now, so for the

1413
01:06:51,280 --> 01:06:54,560
Speaker 10: last thirteen years, every year he's like, come on, damn,

1414
01:06:54,560 --> 01:06:55,120
Speaker 10: we gotta do it?

1415
01:06:55,280 --> 01:06:57,120
Speaker 7: Got to do it about Joe? Joe, I don't know.

1416
01:06:58,040 --> 01:07:00,920
Speaker 10: I only I only dunk once a year on my birthday,

1417
01:07:01,240 --> 01:07:03,720
Speaker 10: around my birthday. I never tried any other time, so

1418
01:07:03,760 --> 01:07:04,800
Speaker 10: I don't know if I could do it or not.

1419
01:07:05,320 --> 01:07:08,240
Speaker 10: And got some hip issues. So this year was a little,

1420
01:07:08,880 --> 01:07:11,240
Speaker 10: you know a little challenging, but I was able to

1421
01:07:11,280 --> 01:07:13,760
Speaker 10: pull it off and we got it done. So but

1422
01:07:14,080 --> 01:07:15,840
Speaker 10: next year, I'm not sure. I may have a hip

1423
01:07:15,880 --> 01:07:18,920
Speaker 10: replacement done by that time, so may this may have

1424
01:07:18,960 --> 01:07:19,720
Speaker 10: been the last one.

1425
01:07:19,760 --> 01:07:20,520
Speaker 13: But it's been fun.

1426
01:07:20,960 --> 01:07:24,520
Speaker 10: What it does is, man, it keeps me in shape,

1427
01:07:24,600 --> 01:07:26,880
Speaker 10: keeps me working out, gives me something to shoot for,

1428
01:07:26,920 --> 01:07:29,360
Speaker 10: a goal to shoot for, to stay stay in reasonably

1429
01:07:29,440 --> 01:07:31,840
Speaker 10: good shape. At sixty seven years old, I work out

1430
01:07:32,280 --> 01:07:35,440
Speaker 10: six times a week, six days a week, and I

1431
01:07:35,440 --> 01:07:37,320
Speaker 10: mean nothing, you know, like an hour and ten minutes,

1432
01:07:37,360 --> 01:07:41,160
Speaker 10: nothing crazy, but just enough to stay in reasonably good shape.

1433
01:07:41,200 --> 01:07:43,320
Speaker 10: So it's been the impetus for that. So that's been

1434
01:07:43,320 --> 01:07:44,840
Speaker 10: a good thing, good positive behind it.

1435
01:07:45,000 --> 01:07:47,240
Speaker 6: Hey, well I give you credit because you're doing something

1436
01:07:47,280 --> 01:07:49,760
Speaker 6: at sixty six. I wasn't able to do it thirty six,

1437
01:07:49,880 --> 01:07:52,240
Speaker 6: so yeah, I appreciate that.

1438
01:07:52,600 --> 01:07:55,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, So I mean, let's talk about the current NBA,

1439
01:07:55,760 --> 01:07:59,720
Speaker 5: the purported subject of the of this podcast. You get

1440
01:07:59,720 --> 01:08:04,680
Speaker 5: an close and personal look at the Bucks, and I

1441
01:08:04,720 --> 01:08:09,000
Speaker 5: feel like they are a lot of smart people's pick

1442
01:08:09,440 --> 01:08:14,240
Speaker 5: for the title this year. There's actually an interesting conversation

1443
01:08:14,440 --> 01:08:19,720
Speaker 5: happening around Jannie with Isaiah this week. I'm not sure

1444
01:08:19,760 --> 01:08:21,360
Speaker 5: if you if you saw this, no.

1445
01:08:21,360 --> 01:08:22,519
Speaker 13: I haven't tell me about it.

1446
01:08:22,560 --> 01:08:24,720
Speaker 3: Well, actually it's from earlier in the year.

1447
01:08:24,840 --> 01:08:28,400
Speaker 6: It was basically it was surrounding the conversation with Giannis

1448
01:08:28,400 --> 01:08:31,080
Speaker 6: where people were saying he might struggle in the eighties,

1449
01:08:31,080 --> 01:08:33,759
Speaker 6: he would come off the bench in the eighties or nineties, whatnot.

1450
01:08:33,880 --> 01:08:35,679
Speaker 5: Charles Oakley in particularly Charles.

1451
01:08:35,479 --> 01:08:38,240
Speaker 6: Oakley in particular and Zeke you know the to his credit,

1452
01:08:38,240 --> 01:08:40,360
Speaker 6: I'll paraphrase, and he basically was saying, hey, guys, you

1453
01:08:40,360 --> 01:08:42,000
Speaker 6: guys need to be quiet because you would.

1454
01:08:41,840 --> 01:08:42,839
Speaker 3: Dominate in the eighties.

1455
01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:46,240
Speaker 6: We've never seen anything like him come into our league, uh,

1456
01:08:46,320 --> 01:08:49,080
Speaker 6: you know, and and and basically he's one of he's

1457
01:08:49,080 --> 01:08:52,160
Speaker 6: one of the quote unquote old heads that definitely shows love.

1458
01:08:52,520 --> 01:08:55,920
Speaker 3: So I'm interested, where do you you see him up close?

1459
01:08:55,960 --> 01:08:58,559
Speaker 6: And personally you've seen him, you know, for the bulk

1460
01:08:58,600 --> 01:09:01,440
Speaker 6: of his career, definitely the great moments.

1461
01:09:01,760 --> 01:09:03,559
Speaker 3: How do you think Giannish would fare?

1462
01:09:03,760 --> 01:09:09,200
Speaker 10: You know, man, I mean, greatness transcends eras and traits

1463
01:09:09,320 --> 01:09:11,880
Speaker 10: will figure out how to excel in different eras and

1464
01:09:12,160 --> 01:09:14,880
Speaker 10: it goes both ways. And so you know, people talk

1465
01:09:14,920 --> 01:09:18,639
Speaker 10: about how we couldn't have played in today's NBA from

1466
01:09:18,680 --> 01:09:21,719
Speaker 10: the eighties and nineties and then cash them from even seventies.

1467
01:09:21,720 --> 01:09:24,240
Speaker 10: I mean, but the great players would figure things that

1468
01:09:24,240 --> 01:09:25,920
Speaker 10: would me. They'd like to point to my three point

1469
01:09:25,920 --> 01:09:28,160
Speaker 10: field goal percentage. Well, that's why I like cleaning the

1470
01:09:28,160 --> 01:09:31,360
Speaker 10: glass because they they don't count heaves and.

1471
01:09:31,200 --> 01:09:32,800
Speaker 13: In the corner shots and all that.

1472
01:09:33,439 --> 01:09:35,479
Speaker 10: Both of my stuff was in the shot clock, in

1473
01:09:35,520 --> 01:09:39,080
Speaker 10: the quarters, those types of threes, and so you know,

1474
01:09:39,880 --> 01:09:42,080
Speaker 10: but if I'd have worked on a three point shots,

1475
01:09:42,200 --> 01:09:44,720
Speaker 10: I'd shoot thirty seven, thirty eight percent. I know that

1476
01:09:44,800 --> 01:09:48,760
Speaker 10: hands down. But when Janni's yeah, that buzz mean now

1477
01:09:48,840 --> 01:09:50,880
Speaker 10: now people are coming around, Charles Barkley calls them the

1478
01:09:50,880 --> 01:09:53,639
Speaker 10: greatest player on the planet, So that that's a definite

1479
01:09:54,439 --> 01:09:56,599
Speaker 10: feather in Giannie's cap to have that happened.

1480
01:09:56,640 --> 01:09:58,559
Speaker 13: I mean, I remember James Harden coming out and Sandy

1481
01:09:58,560 --> 01:10:00,280
Speaker 13: we should see was seven feet and all the he was.

1482
01:10:01,160 --> 01:10:06,519
Speaker 13: Jannis is an acquired taste, and you know, watching him when.

1483
01:10:06,400 --> 01:10:08,479
Speaker 10: I first got to the Bucks eight years ago, he

1484
01:10:08,600 --> 01:10:10,840
Speaker 10: was coming off a season where averaged about sixteen a game,

1485
01:10:11,120 --> 01:10:13,880
Speaker 10: seven eight rebounds. I didn't know if he would be

1486
01:10:14,280 --> 01:10:17,160
Speaker 10: a solid NBA player for the next ten years at

1487
01:10:17,160 --> 01:10:21,800
Speaker 10: that time eighteen nineteen topping out at that or would

1488
01:10:21,840 --> 01:10:25,360
Speaker 10: he be an All Star. I certainly didn't think he

1489
01:10:25,400 --> 01:10:28,240
Speaker 10: would be this, this, this transcendent player who would be

1490
01:10:28,240 --> 01:10:31,000
Speaker 10: a two time MVP that would drop as piece in.

1491
01:10:30,960 --> 01:10:33,519
Speaker 13: A close out finals game. I didn't think that. I didn't.

1492
01:10:33,800 --> 01:10:36,400
Speaker 13: It just didn't look like he was on that trajectory in.

1493
01:10:36,400 --> 01:10:40,960
Speaker 10: Terms of his his skill package, and just didn't look

1494
01:10:41,000 --> 01:10:42,559
Speaker 10: like he was going to be that kind of a guy.

1495
01:10:42,640 --> 01:10:49,040
Speaker 13: But that's where his background, his motivation, his inspiration, his.

1496
01:10:49,160 --> 01:10:54,000
Speaker 10: Diligence to working out, his desire to be the best,

1497
01:10:54,200 --> 01:10:54,920
Speaker 10: that's where all.

1498
01:10:54,760 --> 01:10:56,160
Speaker 13: That comes into play. And I saw that early.

1499
01:10:57,560 --> 01:10:59,840
Speaker 10: I saw him have great games and I'd see a

1500
01:10:59,840 --> 01:11:02,360
Speaker 10: shadow we figure after he had a great game and

1501
01:11:02,360 --> 01:11:07,120
Speaker 10: we won, running through a crowd of people that right after.

1502
01:11:06,920 --> 01:11:10,080
Speaker 13: The game, and then ten degrees below weather in Milwaukee, and.

1503
01:11:10,040 --> 01:11:12,599
Speaker 10: I'm thinking to myself, who is that crazy brother right

1504
01:11:12,640 --> 01:11:16,240
Speaker 10: there with the with the T shirt and the cutoff sweats.

1505
01:11:16,280 --> 01:11:17,639
Speaker 3: What is he doing then?

1506
01:11:17,640 --> 01:11:19,600
Speaker 13: A look closer, man, that's Shiannas. Where the hell is

1507
01:11:19,640 --> 01:11:19,920
Speaker 13: he going?

1508
01:11:20,160 --> 01:11:20,640
Speaker 7: Watch him?

1509
01:11:20,640 --> 01:11:22,640
Speaker 10: He's going to the practice facility across the street to

1510
01:11:22,680 --> 01:11:25,960
Speaker 10: work with the street throws and its tinuing. That's just

1511
01:11:26,360 --> 01:11:28,800
Speaker 10: forty plus point games. We have a flight to another

1512
01:11:28,840 --> 01:11:31,280
Speaker 10: city that night on a team plane. He's sitting in

1513
01:11:31,280 --> 01:11:33,599
Speaker 10: the back of the plane with Sean Sweeney, the assistant

1514
01:11:33,600 --> 01:11:36,080
Speaker 10: coach at the time for the Bucks, going over film

1515
01:11:36,120 --> 01:11:37,479
Speaker 10: and video in terms of what he could have done

1516
01:11:37,520 --> 01:11:39,320
Speaker 10: better even though he just dropped forty points on that

1517
01:11:39,320 --> 01:11:40,160
Speaker 10: opponent that night.

1518
01:11:40,280 --> 01:11:44,240
Speaker 13: That's Siannas, I mean, and so he could have played

1519
01:11:44,360 --> 01:11:45,040
Speaker 13: in any era.

1520
01:11:45,200 --> 01:11:47,640
Speaker 10: He is such a unicorn, as the popular way of

1521
01:11:47,680 --> 01:11:48,840
Speaker 10: describing a guy like him.

1522
01:11:49,000 --> 01:11:49,439
Speaker 9: Think about it.

1523
01:11:49,479 --> 01:11:52,920
Speaker 10: He's seven feet two point fifty, so he's strong enough

1524
01:11:52,920 --> 01:11:56,320
Speaker 10: to kind of with handle with standard pounding back in

1525
01:11:56,360 --> 01:11:59,439
Speaker 10: the day, but he's also got this His separator is

1526
01:11:59,439 --> 01:12:02,040
Speaker 10: this handle. He's able to get to where he wants

1527
01:12:02,080 --> 01:12:06,479
Speaker 10: to go with his ball handling like no other seventh footer.

1528
01:12:07,320 --> 01:12:09,880
Speaker 10: I'm trying to run my mind through the course of

1529
01:12:10,000 --> 01:12:12,800
Speaker 10: history to think if there's been a seventh futter that

1530
01:12:12,880 --> 01:12:16,320
Speaker 10: could handle like he could. Now that's also he's been

1531
01:12:16,400 --> 01:12:19,680
Speaker 10: a product of his era because it's been encouraged for

1532
01:12:20,000 --> 01:12:22,840
Speaker 10: and it's the European kind of influence in the in

1533
01:12:22,920 --> 01:12:24,519
Speaker 10: the NBA and the American game.

1534
01:12:24,880 --> 01:12:26,639
Speaker 13: Big men shooting outside shots.

1535
01:12:26,680 --> 01:12:28,680
Speaker 10: Back in the day, if you were a Jim McDaniels

1536
01:12:28,720 --> 01:12:31,679
Speaker 10: from Western Kentucky who averaged thirty a game in college,

1537
01:12:32,080 --> 01:12:34,000
Speaker 10: you get to the pros, you're saft because you shoot

1538
01:12:34,080 --> 01:12:37,360
Speaker 10: jumpers to seven feet. My teammate at UCLA, Richard Washington,

1539
01:12:37,560 --> 01:12:40,559
Speaker 10: the most outstanding player in the NCAA Tournament nineteen seventy five,

1540
01:12:40,680 --> 01:12:42,559
Speaker 10: twenty eight against the Louisville twenty eight against.

1541
01:12:42,400 --> 01:12:45,120
Speaker 13: Kentucky, great jump shooter six to eleven. He got to

1542
01:12:45,160 --> 01:12:45,639
Speaker 13: the league.

1543
01:12:45,800 --> 01:12:46,320
Speaker 9: You're saft.

1544
01:12:46,439 --> 01:12:51,080
Speaker 10: Get your bigs inside, pounding, pounded inside. That's for the

1545
01:12:51,120 --> 01:12:53,559
Speaker 10: small boards and guards to shoot the jump shots. So

1546
01:12:53,600 --> 01:12:55,679
Speaker 10: it's a different era, and so there is a more

1547
01:12:55,800 --> 01:12:58,599
Speaker 10: more of a premium put on big men, the stretch

1548
01:12:58,640 --> 01:13:00,000
Speaker 10: forward that can knock down jumper.

1549
01:13:00,080 --> 01:13:03,439
Speaker 13: So that helps him, but you know, he just knows

1550
01:13:03,520 --> 01:13:04,920
Speaker 13: how to play.

1551
01:13:04,920 --> 01:13:05,719
Speaker 3: How to score.

1552
01:13:06,120 --> 01:13:08,639
Speaker 10: This finishing is so much better than I've ever seen

1553
01:13:08,720 --> 01:13:11,479
Speaker 10: it before. This year, but his ability to handle the

1554
01:13:11,479 --> 01:13:15,160
Speaker 10: ball to get to his spots, and he studied defenders

1555
01:13:15,160 --> 01:13:18,519
Speaker 10: and knows how to attack angles and body positions to

1556
01:13:18,640 --> 01:13:19,439
Speaker 10: draw files.

1557
01:13:19,600 --> 01:13:20,920
Speaker 13: And even though he's shooting.

1558
01:13:21,040 --> 01:13:24,400
Speaker 10: Sixty five sixty percent from Freako line, a lot of

1559
01:13:24,400 --> 01:13:26,280
Speaker 10: guys would back off and get into the Freekro line

1560
01:13:26,320 --> 01:13:29,720
Speaker 10: because of that, he embraces the challenge and gets to

1561
01:13:29,720 --> 01:13:31,960
Speaker 10: the freak A line even more, probably shooting more goes

1562
01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:34,600
Speaker 10: this season than he's ever shot. So that's his mindset.

1563
01:13:34,640 --> 01:13:37,479
Speaker 10: It's just different, which I think would transcend any error

1564
01:13:37,880 --> 01:13:39,320
Speaker 10: and then lead to success.

1565
01:13:39,800 --> 01:13:44,360
Speaker 2: Oh right, that has been our Mad Boosti's Best of

1566
01:13:44,680 --> 01:13:47,000
Speaker 2: twenty twenty three wrapped.

1567
01:13:48,760 --> 01:13:51,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, and we'll be back next week with

1568
01:13:51,800 --> 01:14:00,880
