Derek Jones 42 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 1: Junior went for it. Couldn'tven knock it out. We're on 43 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 1: pace for fifty. It's been a good it's been a 44 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: good February. 45 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:15,359 Speaker 3: For yes, had sparked in February, Okay, sparked Yeah, in February. 46 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 1: Thirty teams played last night. So we're drafting games. 47 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 2: Let's do it. 48 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:21,800 Speaker 1: We are drafting games. 49 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 2: Oh my god, there's a lot to pick from. 50 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 1: Oh, there are a lot. Fifteen games, thirty divided by 51 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: two fifteen makes sense reverse lottery. Test has the worst 52 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 1: pick them record going right now, so he got the 53 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 1: number one pick. 54 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 3: Exciting for you. 55 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:35,799 Speaker 1: Where are you going, Test. 56 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 3: Well, I'm going with Jamal Murray in his career high 57 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:42,799 Speaker 3: fifty five. Also the Nuggets eighth straight victory. We got 58 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 3: to talk about this team. I thought it was going 59 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 3: to be Nikola Jokicic's night. It was Serbian Heritage night 60 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,519 Speaker 3: in Denver. They got a bobblehead of Nikolai Jokic. But 61 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 3: this is all about Jamal Murray. And the thing that 62 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 3: stands out to me is how they're not going to 63 00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 3: that standard pick and roll that won them a championship 64 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 3: with Nick Jokic and Jamal Murray working it together. Now, 65 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:06,359 Speaker 3: of course he's still using Jokic. If he's at the elbow, 66 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 3: throw it to him. Two men go to him. I'll flare, 67 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,360 Speaker 3: I'll get the ball three point shot, or I'll flare 68 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 3: off ball screen. I'll go to the corner. Or then 69 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 3: when I'm feeling it, I don't even need to give 70 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 3: you the ball, Jokic, I'll just fire away. He scored 71 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,639 Speaker 3: thirty in the first half. He was asking the fans 72 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 3: in Denver's pulling a halt Cogan. Can I hear you? 73 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 3: Can I hear you? Because then in the second half 74 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 3: he just kept going in many different ways. Fast break 75 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 3: Jamal Murray in the post, going up and under. Jamal 76 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 3: Murray coming down the floor, two pick set for him, 77 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 3: just stepping into his own three. Jamal Murray. He looked 78 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 3: like a different guy. Pinned down, screens, everything his line. 79 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 3: Fifty five points on thirty six shots, seven to fifteen 80 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 3: from three. Calvin Booth in the Denver Nuggets front office, 81 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 3: You did it. I didn't expect this to happen after 82 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 3: you signed him to the extension this offseason and for 83 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 3: him to start off slowly as Jamal Murray does. Basically, 84 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 3: the numbers are back to what they want last year, essentially, 85 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 3: very very close to that. This guy looking like he's 86 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 3: going to be the best NBA player ever to not 87 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 3: make an All Star team. Now he's still young. He's 88 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 3: still young, but he's still doing it. He could still 89 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 3: make one. But he's been hot, fifty three percent shooting 90 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 3: in February. Coming into this game. He's sparking like Wedgie's 91 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,719 Speaker 3: No Westbrook, no Michael Parter, no Aaron Gordon, no Payne Watson, 92 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:23,160 Speaker 3: So we had to do a little bit more. But 93 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 3: we need to start just to give these Nuggets some 94 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:30,679 Speaker 3: props because they're going up very close to that second 95 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 3: seed in the Western Conference. This could be the team 96 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,359 Speaker 3: that's just below. Okay, see, so little respect for this 97 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:37,360 Speaker 3: team flying right now. 98 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,159 Speaker 2: You won't like Jamal Murray when he's angry. That's what 99 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 2: happened here against the Blazers. He was pissed off that 100 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 2: he got tossed the game before against them. You know, 101 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 2: they were talking a lot of trash in that game, 102 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 2: got the two techs, he got ejected, and I think 103 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 2: he came out with that on his mind, get a 104 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,719 Speaker 2: little revenge here for that, and just handed it to 105 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 2: the Blazers. Yeah. Just the third Nuggets player in franchise 106 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 2: history to score fifty five or more. David Thompson seventy 107 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,480 Speaker 2: three point game in seventy eight, that's the franchise record. 108 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 2: And then Jokich had a fifty six point game back 109 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 2: in December of this season. So that's pretty cool too. 110 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 2: We got Murray and Yokich both with fifty five point 111 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 2: games this year. That's only happened like a handful of 112 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 2: times in NBA history. I don't know if you want 113 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 2: the trivia, it's early in the show, but no. 114 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 1: Keep it coming. I thought you were going to hit 115 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: us with the Canadian Record Factory. 116 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 2: Well, well you know that. Yeah, I mean SGA just 117 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 2: took it and then Jamal Murray got it right back. 118 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,159 Speaker 2: So I love that. But yeah, duos to score fifty 119 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 2: five or more in the same season, can you name them? 120 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: Duos? Let me toss a little Kyrie Irving out there. Yeah, 121 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 1: Ron James New wrong one, wrong one, Kyrie and Luca, No, 122 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,840 Speaker 1: Kyrie and KD. Yes, Kyrie and d did it a 123 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 1: lot of different guys, twenty. 124 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,600 Speaker 2: One, twenty two nets. Okay, I'll give you an eight. 125 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 2: It's an eighties legendary team, the Lakers, no. 126 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:52,599 Speaker 3: Other one Celtics. 127 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, Larry and Kevin that's right, Yeah, Kevin McHale. That 128 00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,159 Speaker 2: did surprise me a little bit. Larry Bird and Kevin McHale. 129 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,039 Speaker 2: And then you got to go to the sixth for 130 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:02,479 Speaker 2: the other franchise that you named. 131 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 1: Already going to Jerry and Elgin. 132 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, good job. So now yo, Kitchen Murray joined that list, 133 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 2: which is pretty amazing, not bad. 134 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 3: And it's cute. They're one point apart the guy who 135 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,599 Speaker 3: the team relies on a little bit more has the 136 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 3: higher one with fifty six. I didn't expect Jamal Murray to. 137 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,359 Speaker 3: I don't know he could score sixty if he wanted to. 138 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: Yes on a hot shooting. 139 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 2: Oh my god, he's unstoppable when he's going. 140 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is only thirty six shots. So if he 141 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 3: wanted to shoot forty times, bang bang. 142 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 1: You guys, I mean thirty six definitely a lot of sense. 143 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 1: It's just too bad that Jokic you couldn't have a 144 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: good game on his Novelhead and Night, just twenty six points, 145 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 1: fifteen rebounds, and ten assists. Barely getting a mention here. 146 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 1: But you said Jamal Murray's playing like a different guy. 147 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 1: He's playing like young Jamal Murray out there since January first, 148 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:50,840 Speaker 1: twenty two points a game, four rebounds, six assists. He's 149 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,279 Speaker 1: knocking on the door of fifty forty ninety. I got 150 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 1: death concerns for the Nuggets. I got defense concerns a 151 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,600 Speaker 1: little bit for the Nuggets as well. But if Murray's 152 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 1: playing like this, they're still title contenders. He's gliding out there. 153 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: Incredible confidence from Jamal Murray. Guys, got anything else on this? Own, 154 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 1: or should we go to the next draft pick skips 155 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 1: let's two o'clock. 156 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's go to me here next number two pick 157 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 2: overall tons to pick from. I will take a very 158 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 2: entertaining game with Jalen Brunson hitting the late dagger cat, 159 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 2: scoring forty four Nicks, beating the Hawks sad kaka ninety 160 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 2: eight in overtime. What is this? Joe Dumar is an 161 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 2: All Star game? Holy Moley nearly three hundred points, the 162 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 2: highest scoring game of the season, but one of the 163 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 2: wildest games, especially if you caught the end of regulation. 164 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 2: The Knicks shouldn't have had to play that extra five 165 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 2: minutes of overtime. They were up six points with about 166 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 2: eighteen seconds to go in regulation, and you know you 167 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 2: saw fans, they were exiting the garden. They're like, all right, 168 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 2: let's get on the metro. Let's get home. But George 169 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 2: Niang hit a three. Okay, that happens. You'll cut the 170 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 2: deficit in half. But you got the ball. You're still 171 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 2: the next just play the free throw game. Towns throws 172 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 2: an errant pass, though on the ensuing inbounds played, Daniels 173 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 2: gets the steal under the basket. He gets fouled. Okay, 174 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 2: that's okay. Though we're up, we're up three. He makes 175 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 2: his first free throw and then that you know, cuts 176 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 2: the lead to two, and then he misses the second, 177 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 2: but they get the rebound. He gets the rebound, it 178 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 2: finds its way to Trey Young, and yeah, he gets fouled, 179 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 2: goes to line hits two, and suddenly it's a tie game. 180 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 2: And suddenly we're in overtime, which is just wild that 181 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 2: they got there entertaining overtime though, you know, which isn't 182 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 2: always the case. Right you play, you play these games 183 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 2: forty eight minutes. Everybody's a little tired. More times than not, 184 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 2: you sort of get these little slug fest in overtime. 185 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 2: But it was a twelve eleven overtime and Jollen Brunson 186 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 2: hit the beautiful shot on Daniels two, obviously matched up top, 187 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 2: got into his bounce, got his rhythm and then hit 188 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 2: that jumper and then they like survived, you know, a 189 00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 2: last second heave from Niang in the corner, good defense 190 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:51,680 Speaker 2: by bridges On on Trey Young. Somehow it's stayed in 191 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 2: Trey's hands, got it to the minivan in the corner 192 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 2: and he sort of short armed it, and you know, 193 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 2: otherwise they would have got the victory there, which would 194 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 2: have been even crazier, but an entertaining game as they 195 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 2: head into the All Star break test. 196 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, quiet cat forty four, no big jo. But we 197 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 3: are talking about Jayleen Brunson because he sealed it and 198 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,960 Speaker 3: because Trey Young walks into the arena with the sorry, 199 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 3: I'm an All Star jacket sweater swearter, it was more 200 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 3: of a sweater, and then he banged home that three 201 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 3: close to the Knicks log logo with five minutes left, 202 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:24,559 Speaker 3: trying to take the headlines the highlights. But yeah, I'm 203 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 3: surprised the next and close this out in regulation and 204 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:30,319 Speaker 3: all their starters had to play forty five, forty six, 205 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 3: forty seven minutes in a classic TIBs. 206 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 2: That's all right. They get a week off now, Yeah, 207 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 2: they do well, some of them do. I guess some 208 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 2: are playing in an All Star. 209 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:41,559 Speaker 1: Gamey taxing ben all Star game that's going to take 210 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 1: like ten minutes to play. I think they'll be fine. 211 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:45,959 Speaker 1: Thirty eight and nineteen for Trey sorry he's an All Star. 212 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,679 Speaker 1: That's awesome. There was just massive lines throughout the association 213 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 1: last night. What a great random rivalry we have though 214 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 1: between the Hawks and the Knicks, especially in Madison Square Garden, 215 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 1: it feels like we're always going to get good games. 216 00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,199 Speaker 1: But Man, Brunson, he should be the clutch player of 217 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 1: the year, I do believe, and it's a masterclass from 218 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 1: him every single time in these fourth quarters and these overtimes. 219 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 1: I feel like last night was a little bit different though, 220 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 1: because to me, he's trying to get in the lane 221 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 1: for the most part in these clutch situations. Last night 222 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: it was all jumpers, so that was interesting to see 223 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 1: as well. 224 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,440 Speaker 2: I do like that we were just recently not arguing, 225 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 2: but we were debating if you're doing like your top 226 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 2: five MVP picks, which Knicks player sort of makes the cut, right, 227 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 2: and we were like one of us, you know, we 228 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 2: were making the case for kat obviously, and then we 229 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 2: were making the case for Brunson because he's sort of 230 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,840 Speaker 2: the closer, the captain. Both important and it's sort of 231 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 2: funny that, you know, now Kats have two forty point 232 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,679 Speaker 2: games in a row. This was following up the other 233 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:38,720 Speaker 2: one he had the other night. But Brunton, you know, 234 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:39,960 Speaker 2: it feels like they don't win a lot of these 235 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 2: games without him. So it's a great problem to have. 236 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 2: I guess if you're debating, Hey, which one of our 237 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 2: guys is in the top five MV people? 238 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:49,720 Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, probably first forty six minutes is Carl any Town's. 239 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 1: Last two minutes is Jalen Brunson. Last thing I had 240 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,959 Speaker 1: for this game watching George Niang play, I think one 241 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 1: of us will run into him on the belt line 242 00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: at some point. Ooh, seems like a guy that would 243 00:10:59,480 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: go to lady. 244 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I could see that. Yeah, I love that, especially 245 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 2: with the weather getting a little nicer. A one more sequence, 246 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 2: one more insane sequence I hope you guys saw in 247 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 2: this game. It was near the end of the first quarter. 248 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 2: The Hawks missed six straight shots, but they grabbed five 249 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 2: offensive rebounds. But on those shots, I swear four or 250 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 2: five of them didn't hit the rim. They were hitting 251 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 2: the side of the backboard on like little sort of 252 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 2: follow ups, were just completely missing the rim. It was 253 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:30,679 Speaker 2: an insane sequence that ended in a foul, but just 254 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 2: something very rare. I think our guy Dominic Barlow started 255 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 2: it off with a clanked three in the corner off 256 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 2: the side of the backboard, but man, they kept grabbing 257 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 2: the board. 258 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 3: As well, and the Warriors did that too, a side backboard, 259 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 3: just a nice bounce, and George Niang didn't get a 260 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:46,199 Speaker 3: good bounce. He just missed that three pointer at the 261 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 3: end of overtime. But we will see him on the 262 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 3: belt line like we saw Miles Plumbly that one time. 263 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 3: Wasn't on the belt line specifically, but while we were 264 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 3: having a wine taster, he was just out there, uh 265 00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 3: walking by. That's Miles Plumbly. 266 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 2: I recently saw Channing Fry. 267 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: I think Chandler persons has been sighted on the ball 268 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 1: one time. George fits right in. Oh yeah, a guy 269 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 1: that could just pass for a normal dude walking down 270 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 1: You think he's a dog walking a dog in the 271 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 1: belt That surprised me, man. 272 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:21,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, that was really surprised me too, George. What would 273 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 3: George call his dog with George kneeing, I don't know 274 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 3: why why he would call him that. 275 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 1: Astro astro astro astro like that, like the astro van, 276 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:38,959 Speaker 1: the Chevy astrovan. That's right, that's a good name for 277 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 1: a dog. Yeah, beautiful stuff. I got the number three 278 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 1: pick and I'm going to Dallas, where basically no tall 279 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 1: guys played in this game. Quentin post. He's a seven footer. 280 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 1: He played twelve minutes only I think two in the 281 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,320 Speaker 1: second half, but everybody else between the Mavericks and the 282 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,960 Speaker 1: Warriors six foot nine and under, mostly due to the 283 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:59,200 Speaker 1: Mavericks injuries, so the Warriors kind of went small to 284 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 1: match them. Irving, though, was the best player on the 285 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: court in this game. Forty two points, seven threes, seven rebounds, 286 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,960 Speaker 1: zero assists. Love it, he only had two potential assists. 287 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 1: Every time he was getting off the ball, it was 288 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 1: a trap and maybe it would find his way back 289 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 1: to him. But basically, Kyrie was out there to score 290 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 1: because the Mavericks needed offense. He had thirteen in the 291 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 1: third quarter really took over the game, then fourteen in 292 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter. I thought he was a little more 293 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 1: paced in that one. But the last six points Kyrie 294 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,559 Speaker 1: scored in the fourth all gave the Mavericks the lead. 295 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:30,960 Speaker 1: That being said, I thought the others really pulled them 296 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 1: over the line. Naji Marshall had pretty much the game winner. 297 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,439 Speaker 1: He scored ten points, had a little floater with twenty 298 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:39,560 Speaker 1: five seconds left after the Warriors were leaving him open. 299 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 1: For the entirety of the fourth quarter, he was passing 300 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 1: up shots but this time they left him open. He drove, 301 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 1: made a play, floated it in great stuff. Max Christy 302 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: had another good game. This guy's been playing awesome since 303 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 1: the trade. Seventeen points, five boards, four assists for Christy 304 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,560 Speaker 1: last night. He scored fifteen or more in all five 305 00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 1: of these games for the Mavericks. Fifty one percent from 306 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 1: the field five from three. Looks like a real player. 307 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 1: He was a big part of the Lakers turnaround as well. 308 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 1: And then I love to see College Park Skyhawk's legend 309 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 1: Brandon Williams closing this game instead of Spencer Dinwitty. Twelve 310 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 1: points for Brandon Williams, a couple of threes, and he 311 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,920 Speaker 1: was their secondary ball handler basically instead of Dinwitty. And 312 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 1: the Warriors really just couldn't keep the guards in front 313 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 1: of them in the fourth quarter. So nice win for 314 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: the MAVs to get a w with none of their 315 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 1: big guys there. Now they go into the All Star 316 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 1: break and they just hope one of these guys can 317 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 1: get a little bit healthy enough to play when we 318 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 1: come back. 319 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 3: It was absolutely so impressive from the others. Yeah, and 320 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 3: Najie Marshall's in that corner. They were leaving a moment. 321 00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 3: He didn't want to shoot it, but he's good at 322 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 3: driving from the corner, looping to the rim. Every single 323 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 3: time you mentioned Max Christy hitting two clutch free throws 324 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 3: at the end. He looks like a vet. He's twenty 325 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 3: two years old. He's a vet. He's got the clutch genius. 326 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 3: Clay went up to him after the game in his 327 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 3: postgame interview, Clutch Geen. The guy acts like an old 328 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 3: player and he was a huge part of this trade. 329 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 3: I couldn't believe that they were able to come out 330 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 3: with this victory because the Warriors' size just got them 331 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 3: offensive board after offensive board. Eighteen offensive boards. Jimmy Butler's 332 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 3: doing a lot of it. Six of them in the 333 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 3: fourth quarter were huge thirty three to eleven and second 334 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 3: chance points for the Golden State Warriors. So you think 335 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 3: they're going to win, But the others have been huge 336 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 3: since the Anthony Davis trade. 337 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, they really have. Yeah. It was a good night 338 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 2: for the injury replacements, wasn't it. Kyrie Trey Young. Obviously, 339 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 2: Kyrie gets the victory and I felt vindicated. Thank you 340 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 2: for bringing up Brandon Williams. I remember a couple of 341 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,520 Speaker 2: years ago saying why's this guy not in the league. 342 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 2: I mean, we watch a lot of basketball. It's like, 343 00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 2: this guy could have a chance here as a backup guard. 344 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 2: So it's cool to see him get an opportunity and 345 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 2: take advantage of it. The Skyhawk's legend, as you called him. 346 00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 2: I remember watching them up close in personal, like this 347 00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 2: guy can play. But that's the funny part, Like all 348 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:52,560 Speaker 2: these guys can. You know what I mean when you 349 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:54,480 Speaker 2: go to a JE League game, like, why is this 350 00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:56,120 Speaker 2: guy not in the league. Well, you know, there's a 351 00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 2: lot of those type of guys, but it's cool that 352 00:15:57,760 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 2: he came through at least. 353 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. It's like the Mavericks kind of have three 354 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 1: of those guys. One of them is Brandon Williams, Spencer 355 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 1: Dinwiddie a little bit bigger, Jane Hardy essentially the same 356 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 1: guy as Brandon Williams, but he was playing pretty well. 357 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 1: Made a couple of clutch free throws, which Steph Curry 358 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 1: unfortunately did not, missed his first fourth quarter free throw 359 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:18,120 Speaker 1: of the season, which would have given the Warriors the lead. 360 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 1: But thirty seven seconds I thought they were gonna win it. 361 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 1: Kyrie maybe got a little bit of a gift on 362 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 1: the reach in ripped through foul. But you know, I 363 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 1: think people were happy for the Mavericks to get a 364 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 1: win because it seemed like a good environment in there. 365 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 1: You know, I heard there were no fans on the 366 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 1: jumbo tron, but it seemed positive throughout for Dallas, which 367 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 1: hasn't necessarily been the case for the past time. 368 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 2: Yea, like nobody got tossed. No, we know last night, 369 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 2: that's good. 370 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 1: Nobody got tossed. And did Jason Kidd do postgame press? 371 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 1: Probably there? 372 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, And he actually commented on why he didn't do 373 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:50,800 Speaker 2: postgame press conference the other day. 374 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, he said, I didn't want to answer the questions. 375 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 1: They would have. 376 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 3: Great account of Villaye after the third quarter. He basically 377 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,640 Speaker 3: he was also doing the interview. He also said Kyrie's good, 378 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 3: We're gonna need him again. Kyrie's good, We're gonna need essentially, 379 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 3: and Kyrie obviously came through. And his defense on Curry 380 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 3: I thought were they were kind of almost doubling him, 381 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 3: just watching him with four eyes, and that allowed for 382 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:15,680 Speaker 3: other opportunities for the Golden State Warriors. Did that throw 383 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:17,679 Speaker 3: off Kurry in the end, I don't. I probably not. 384 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 3: He still hit that corner three that make him miss 385 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 3: his free throw. I don't know. I thought that's why 386 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:24,359 Speaker 3: the Warriors are gonna win because there's other opportunities for 387 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,679 Speaker 3: other guys. And that's when Jimmy was great and with 388 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:31,360 Speaker 3: those eleven fourth quarter points for him. But this team 389 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,439 Speaker 3: keeps coming through the Kessler Edwards had six assists. Oh, 390 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 3: Max had six assists this night for Canadian boys man 391 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:44,120 Speaker 3: Deep Olivier. Max hns. You gotta say it like that, yep. 392 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 1: I can't say it like I don't have the natural 393 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 1: French tongue. I's got to pick number four. Test up. 394 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:57,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm going with the OKC thunder over the Keat. 395 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:01,760 Speaker 3: You might think boring. So what they beat them? My heat? Well, 396 00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 3: I think they did this in a championship type of way. 397 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 3: Because I turned in to watch a Wiggins battle. I 398 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:11,680 Speaker 3: thought we were gonna get Aaron versus Andrews. That did 399 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 3: not happen. I just watched the heat scorching. 400 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:15,520 Speaker 1: They were scorching. 401 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 3: Okay, see, sixty one percent from the floor in the 402 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:20,200 Speaker 3: first quarter, fifty six percent from the second quarter. They're 403 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,399 Speaker 3: up double to just going into the fourth. But this 404 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 3: is how a championship team comes back. Okay, so he 405 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:27,880 Speaker 3: went on a twenty four to oh run to start 406 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,199 Speaker 3: the fourth quarter. Let me give you the possessions. To 407 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,440 Speaker 3: start the fourth quarter, Shaye brings up the ball. He 408 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:36,119 Speaker 3: has a three point line double comes one pass away 409 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:38,960 Speaker 3: Lou Dort three bang. Shay comes up for a pull 410 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:42,200 Speaker 3: up three. Nasty. On the next possession. You don't see 411 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,200 Speaker 3: that very often from him. Shae in the corner, kind 412 00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 3: of fronting him, a little back door cut bucket, dorcher 413 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 3: chamber in the defensive end. He steals it. It's a 414 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 3: one man fast break for Dort ten to oh, we're 415 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 3: all tied up. Then Shaye brings it up step back 416 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 3: on high Smith Nasty for a three. Finally, okay, See 417 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:01,280 Speaker 3: messes up his position. They miss. Shay walks into here. 418 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 3: On the next possession, into the elbow fade, okay, see 419 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:06,000 Speaker 3: up five, then a Joe three, then a dork miss three. 420 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 3: The Heat still haven't scored yet. Shae Steele brings it up, 421 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:13,760 Speaker 3: pass to mudflap Kenrich Williams for a three. Ok Se 422 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,240 Speaker 3: up eleven. The Heat still haven't scored yet. The Shay 423 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 3: uses a pick and roll to take the ball out 424 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,639 Speaker 3: of the Heat's hands. There to Joe or excuse me, 425 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 3: the Heat took it out of Shay's hands. He passes 426 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 3: it to Joe up fourteen. Then the Heat finally scores. 427 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 3: So that's a twenty four to zero run. The Miami 428 00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:31,480 Speaker 3: didn't score for nearly the first six half or first 429 00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 3: six minutes of the fourth quarter. That's ok see championship ball. 430 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 3: That's Warriors esque. That's what the okayse does when they 431 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 3: have a dep sit in the second half, which happens 432 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 3: quite often. Yeah, they kick ass with their depth. They 433 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 3: did it again. So you could look at it as 434 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 3: kind of a boring game, but that twenty four to 435 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 3: oh run is real championship type stuff. 436 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:55,159 Speaker 1: Yeah. I think that was the first twenty four to 437 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 1: zero run in the NBA since Minnesota came back against 438 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:00,640 Speaker 1: Denver in the fourth quarter of Game seven in last 439 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:02,879 Speaker 1: year's playoffs. It looked like the two thousand and one 440 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,399 Speaker 1: six ers. To me. Everybody was playing defense and then 441 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 1: Shake Gilders and Alexander was the Allen Iverson doing everything 442 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 1: on offense. If he wasn't scoring, he was assisting, And 443 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,199 Speaker 1: if he wasn't assisting, he was making the secondary assist 444 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 1: after getting doubled. Pretty sweet stuff. From the Thunder and 445 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:20,160 Speaker 1: the Heat just completely disappeared. Like the ten oh run 446 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 1: to start the fourth quarter was in like a minute 447 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: and a half and you could tell the Heat We're like, 448 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:27,880 Speaker 1: uh oh, it's tied, but this game is over somehow. 449 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,639 Speaker 1: So incredible when for the Thunder to somehow turn this 450 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 1: into a blowout. 451 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:33,919 Speaker 2: Whenever there's a run like that, I always like picture 452 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 2: like some Heat fan at home watching the game end 453 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:39,120 Speaker 2: of the third quarters, like, hell, yeah, we are rolling, 454 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 2: like ten point lead. Let me just get a quick 455 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 2: piss in here, you know, let me grab a quick snack. 456 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:46,639 Speaker 2: And by the time this person is back to the TV, 457 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 2: they're like down by five. Like you said, it was old, 458 00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 2: Like the lead was gone in the blink of an 459 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:53,360 Speaker 2: eye and they must have been like, what the hell 460 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 2: just happened? So, uh yeah, the Thunder awesome there. I mean, 461 00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:59,680 Speaker 2: the more and more and more you watch them, I 462 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 2: get more and more convinced they're going to the finals 463 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:04,199 Speaker 2: at the very least out of the West. They're just 464 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 2: so damn good. 465 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:08,159 Speaker 1: But exactly it'll be I think it would be a 466 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 1: disappointing season for the Thunder at this point if they 467 00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 1: lose in the Western Conference playoffs. Who knows what happened 468 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 1: in the finals, but they should be a massive favorite. 469 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:15,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree. 470 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:19,120 Speaker 3: Totally, And I thought again we'd see more Wigans because 471 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 3: now okay See has won seven in a row. Aaron 472 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:24,960 Speaker 3: Wiggins in those first six games for okay See was 473 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 3: blasting hot twenty three points on fifty eight from the floor, 474 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:31,200 Speaker 3: forty nine percent from three, and a real good free 475 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 3: throw shooter at ninety two percent. Well, Andrew Wiggins was 476 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:36,679 Speaker 3: balling the last time he played okay See was a 477 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:39,560 Speaker 3: member of Golden State. He had twenty seven points. But 478 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 3: it was kind of quiet from both of them, so 479 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:43,920 Speaker 3: that was a little surprising. But it is cool to 480 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:46,440 Speaker 3: see Davian Mitchell on the Miami Heat. He's their new 481 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 3: Gabe Vincent. Yep, he's so good at it. 482 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:52,200 Speaker 2: Yes, everybody was calling that, like wait till he gets 483 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 2: on the heat, Watch what spot we'll get out of 484 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 2: this guy. Yeah, and like it's already coming trueazing, he. 485 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 3: Was big for them. 486 00:21:57,040 --> 00:22:00,960 Speaker 1: Yep. Yeah, let's start for Wiggans. Comment Andrew in Miami 487 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:03,480 Speaker 1: so far twenty four points on seven of twenty four 488 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:07,119 Speaker 1: shooting and thirteen and eleven trying to find his spot. 489 00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:09,359 Speaker 1: You mentioned snack skates. You got any snacks back there on. 490 00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 2: The tests, wrect No, I do not. 491 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:13,520 Speaker 1: You don't have like that freeze dried ice cream. 492 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:17,480 Speaker 2: I do have black coffee here in this black hole. 493 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:20,440 Speaker 1: That's all right. Give us a number five pick skis. 494 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, number five pick. I'll make this fairly quick. Give 495 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:26,119 Speaker 2: me Kawhi scoring twenty five as the Clippers sort of 496 00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:29,399 Speaker 2: crushed the Grizzlies one twenty eight, one fourteen. You know, 497 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 2: we sort of called this one too schedule loss. At 498 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 2: sure looked like Clippers sort of rested Grizzlies on the 499 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 2: back to back. No Ja Moran for the grizz But 500 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 2: Kauai played a season high thirty four minutes. Maybe three 501 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:44,199 Speaker 2: of his thirty minute games have come in the last week, 502 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,640 Speaker 2: so that's, you know, ramping up those minutes for Kawhi. 503 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 2: But Man Memphis committed twenty two turnovers in this game 504 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:54,400 Speaker 2: that led to forty one Clipper points. Chris Donn five steals, 505 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 2: Kawhi three steals, Zubats three steals. And I've mentioned this before, 506 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:00,919 Speaker 2: Chris Dunn should be getting a little more love for 507 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:04,120 Speaker 2: an all defensive selection, maybe second team or something like that. 508 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 2: He was all over the place. He picked Luke Conard's 509 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 2: pocket on like the second possession of the game. Then 510 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 2: he picked up a loose ball off a bad Canard 511 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 2: pass because he pressured him and he sort of panicked 512 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 2: and he was trying to get it to Edie. He 513 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:19,440 Speaker 2: picked off that one. Later in the second half, done 514 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:22,439 Speaker 2: poked away one from Triple J. He got switched up 515 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:23,120 Speaker 2: onto him up top. 516 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:23,480 Speaker 3: Woop. 517 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 2: He's got such sneaky long arms, this guy. So he 518 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:27,479 Speaker 2: poked that one away and then he added two more 519 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 2: steals in the second half, including one that he like 520 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:32,960 Speaker 2: read like a like a safety or a cornerback. Where 521 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:34,920 Speaker 2: the ball was in the corner. He's up top and 522 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:36,359 Speaker 2: he knew where it was going. He's like he was 523 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:38,879 Speaker 2: just waiting for it to be passed up top. He 524 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 2: jumped the passing lane, took it the other way, and 525 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:44,200 Speaker 2: then very unselfishly he could have had the layup. He 526 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:46,680 Speaker 2: saw Kawhi trailing, he said, here, sir, you take these 527 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:48,919 Speaker 2: two points and handed it off to him. So I 528 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 2: just like love what he's doing for them. Clippers have 529 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 2: the third best defense in the league, and that's you know, 530 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 2: with Kawhi playing like fifteen games this year, that was like, 531 00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:59,399 Speaker 2: James Harden and your starting lineup. That's impressive. So that 532 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:02,439 Speaker 2: was good. Dogdanovic played, you know, hit a couple of shots. 533 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:04,200 Speaker 2: He hit one three. I think he went three for four, 534 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,640 Speaker 2: so he's there. Ben Simmons waved to the crowd. 535 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 3: Was cutting. 536 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:09,679 Speaker 1: No, he was in it. 537 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 2: No no, no, no, no no. He waved with his 538 00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:13,960 Speaker 2: hand to the crowd from the bench. And he might 539 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 2: play tonight. I would assume he would, because you know, 540 00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 2: you have some teams playing on this strange back to 541 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,479 Speaker 2: back before the All Star break, so I think we'll 542 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:23,920 Speaker 2: see a little Ben Simmons night. But yeah, Clips just 543 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:25,399 Speaker 2: took care of business absolutely. 544 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 3: Can we get a report on Chris Donne falling into 545 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 3: the front row. It looks like he got some nacho 546 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:34,400 Speaker 3: cheese on his shoulder. He's like, yeah, stop stop equipment, man, 547 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:37,640 Speaker 3: I got some stuff here. But number one, I thought 548 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:39,439 Speaker 3: it's into it Dome. I thought they'd be too good 549 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 3: for nacho cheese. I don't know, in a new arena, 550 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:43,200 Speaker 3: like like like you know. 551 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:44,960 Speaker 2: Maybe it's got gold flakes. 552 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 3: And maybe yeah it was like greeny red though maybe 553 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:51,120 Speaker 3: it was no, you know, just the crappy process cheeks 554 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 3: a level. 555 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 2: Lot oh yeah, yeah, yeah. 556 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, either way. And then I just want to comment 557 00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:58,920 Speaker 3: on John Morant's big hat because as I lose to 558 00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 3: pick them payoff here in February, I'm terrible. We have 559 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 3: been looking at large hats for the loser to wear, 560 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 3: and that was a monster Louis Vuitton hat. Now I 561 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:12,879 Speaker 3: don't think we're parking lot of time, but we've been 562 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 3: looking at weird hats like Jaden Smith at the Grammys. 563 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, the Castle hat. 564 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 3: The Castle hat. 565 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 2: So we got some Louis. 566 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 3: This one's not too big, but this, I mean it's big. 567 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 3: On the price, I would say it's a checkered I'm 568 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 3: just can't. 569 00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 1: I was at first I was looking up to see 570 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:32,680 Speaker 1: how many steals is the most steals in the league, 571 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 1: because seventeen is a lot. But now I'm more interested 572 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 1: in seeing this gigantic hat. 573 00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 3: I'm making it big. Although you mentioned Kawhi playing his 574 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:43,920 Speaker 3: season high, and I had to look because I thought 575 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:47,160 Speaker 3: he played thirty three minutes last week. It was eighteen 576 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 3: seconds fewer last week. So now he's moving it up. 577 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:52,160 Speaker 3: And this is the first time that Kawhi has sat 578 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 3: out November and January in this way on purpose to 579 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 3: get slowly get better, and so you're seeing that, and 580 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 3: it is two months away, so get ready for us 581 00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:05,879 Speaker 3: saying well, we'll see how many minutes they're going to 582 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 3: play in the playoffs. Yees, because that is important. 583 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:12,360 Speaker 2: James Harden also moved past the Kimolaijuan into sole possession 584 00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 2: of thirteenth place on the NBA's all time scoring list, 585 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:18,640 Speaker 2: almost twenty seven thousand points for James. Yeah, I mean 586 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 2: he just passed a Kimolaije's impressive. 587 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 1: I mean, I guess it must have been like close 588 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 1: to top ten by the time. 589 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:25,720 Speaker 3: You were tired. 590 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:27,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, a lot of people have jumped past them. 591 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:30,399 Speaker 1: Yeah. Two questions. Number one, Skates, you sound like a 592 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:32,880 Speaker 1: guy who's buying into the Clippers. 593 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 2: No, no, I just wanted to draft the Clippers and 594 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:39,399 Speaker 2: try and not show my bias to them. Definitely flaming 595 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 2: out in the playoffs, which eventually will happen. No, they 596 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:44,640 Speaker 2: You know, we talked a lot about the Grizzlies being, 597 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:46,840 Speaker 2: you know, near the top of the Western Conference standings, 598 00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:48,879 Speaker 2: and I do think it was a schedule lost to 599 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:51,680 Speaker 2: some extent, but the clips impressed me. I watched a 600 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:53,360 Speaker 2: good chunk of this one being one of the later games. 601 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:53,680 Speaker 3: Yeah. 602 00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, they went on a similar run about this time 603 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 1: last year, so right, fair enough to be skeptical. My 604 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 1: number two question was do you think that nacho cheese 605 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:06,159 Speaker 1: on shorts should be something that infectious control handles? What 606 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:10,240 Speaker 1: if think it's moldy? Yeah, I just to go ahead 607 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 1: and think on that one, fell I'll come back to 608 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:14,439 Speaker 1: you later because it's important to get into it. The 609 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 1: number six pick, I'm going with the Rockets coming back 610 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:19,920 Speaker 1: to beat the Suns. Rockets to ben in a little 611 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:21,960 Speaker 1: bit of a tail spin here. They've lost six straight 612 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:24,440 Speaker 1: before beating the Raptors on Sunday, so a good comeback 613 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 1: win for them. Trail heading into the fourth quarter, they 614 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 1: rode Alprin sheng Goon to tie the game. He had 615 00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 1: ten points in the fourth, but then they finished off 616 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:35,359 Speaker 1: the Suns with an eleven to two run after Dylan 617 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 1: Brooks won a duel with Kevin Durant unbelievable two thirty left. 618 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 1: Kevin Durant dunks to get Phoenix within three. Dylan Brooks 619 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 1: comes back three in the face. Katie then misses a 620 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:47,120 Speaker 1: couple of times, and Brooks hits another three to put 621 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:50,720 Speaker 1: Houston up nine. KD then hits his own three, a 622 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 1: turnover by Houston and another three pointer for Kevin Durant. 623 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:57,199 Speaker 1: Houston now up by four, Dylan Brooks gets filed. He 624 00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,960 Speaker 1: makes the two free throws to ice it. Great stuff 625 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 1: of the Rockets to get a win. Sometimes it feels 626 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 1: like their clutch wins are on accident. I'm talking about 627 00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:07,200 Speaker 1: even when Fred van Vliet is back. He didn't play 628 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:09,680 Speaker 1: in this one. But you know, same thing with Fred 629 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:11,680 Speaker 1: van Vliet and Dylan Brooks. They're gonna be taking the 630 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 1: big shots out of the Rockets. When they go in, 631 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 1: they win. They don't always go in because these guys 632 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 1: are both very streaky shooters. But Brooks had it going 633 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,240 Speaker 1: and he was, you know, obviously talking trash back and 634 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 1: forth with Kevin Durant, which was pretty fun to see. 635 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:27,639 Speaker 1: Us want to give a little bit of love to 636 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:31,680 Speaker 1: read Shepard only five points last night, played eleven minutes, 637 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:34,560 Speaker 1: five points, a three pointer and assist, a rebound, and 638 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:37,400 Speaker 1: a steal. The guy's averaging one and a half stocks 639 00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 1: per game in seven February games. It sounds ridiculous, but 640 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 1: it's his first real run here. He's going to be 641 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 1: playing for the G League in the Rising Stars game. 642 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 1: The hype for him coming into the season was he's 643 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 1: going to be a great shooter. He has not yet 644 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: been a great shooter. But the second thing was he'll 645 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 1: be a disruptive defender, and I think that's actually accurate. 646 00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 1: He fits in alongside you're a Men Thompson who had 647 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 1: a triple double in this one, Tari Easan who's very 648 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 1: active defensively as well, And it looks like Red Shepherd 649 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:06,600 Speaker 1: will be able to wreak a little bit of havoc 650 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 1: as a defender. Who knows what he turns into in 651 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 1: his career, but it's nice to see him having an impact. 652 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 3: I think for Houston, are you saying reed Shepherd may 653 00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 3: have won Rookie of the Year. 654 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:17,480 Speaker 2: Like, oh, are you saying that? 655 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 3: I hope not. He might. 656 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:23,960 Speaker 1: He's still got a chance to make second team All Rookie. 657 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 1: It's not over. 658 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 3: Yeah. As I watched Dalton Connect comeback for the Los 659 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:31,880 Speaker 3: Angeles Lakers, making his first appearance since being traded not 660 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 3: traded to the Charlotte Hornets, I think, who knows. Who 661 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:38,479 Speaker 3: knows if you have a good thirty games here at 662 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 3: the end of the season, maybe, but yeah, it's unlikely 663 00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 3: for read. But it's good seam get minutes. But you 664 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:44,840 Speaker 3: mentioned the guys at the end of the fourth quarter 665 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 3: who are going to shoot in the playoffs. It is Dulton, 666 00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 3: excuse it's Dylan Brooks, and of course it is Fred 667 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,480 Speaker 3: when he comes back. So this is a super young team, 668 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:55,600 Speaker 3: but they are going to rely on those two oldies 669 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 3: to hit those shots. That's what it is going to 670 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 3: come down to. And then Sheng Goon and Jalen Green 671 00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 3: and am Men Thompson will get their their bits. But 672 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:06,240 Speaker 3: this team is good going to the fourth quarter and 673 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 3: they can't seem to close it every single time. It's 674 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:09,240 Speaker 3: up to those guys. 675 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:11,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was good. They had the Phoenix Suns on 676 00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 2: the calendar playing them. They needed that victory, Like you 677 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 2: said the Rockets. They got it. And I had somebody 678 00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:19,479 Speaker 2: text me the other day because we were talking about 679 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 2: how just depressing the Suns and Sixers are as teams 680 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 2: right now, and they were like, I guess they recently 681 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 2: just started watching games the other night. Hadn't watched a 682 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:30,600 Speaker 2: lot of basketball, they admitted this season. So they watched 683 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:32,920 Speaker 2: the Suns play and they watched the Sixers play, and 684 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:36,239 Speaker 2: they were like, oh my god, this is horrible. And 685 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 2: so they agreed, like they are vibelests, what is going on? 686 00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,080 Speaker 2: They almost turned it off, they said, but so it's 687 00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 2: confirmed that what we were seeing from those teams. Even 688 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:46,480 Speaker 2: the casuals are like, oh yeah, what's going on with 689 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 2: those two teams? Why do they suck? Why do they 690 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 2: hate each other? 691 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:51,040 Speaker 1: I don't think they play each other anymore this year unfortunately. 692 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:53,640 Speaker 2: Oh a vibe less off? 693 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, anti vibes off. Yeah yeah, you got an 694 00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:58,320 Speaker 1: answer about the notch. 695 00:30:58,520 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 2: No, no, I'm still thinking about it. 696 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 1: You know, when you've finished running the calculations for now, 697 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 1: we'll hear tass Is number seven. 698 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:09,600 Speaker 3: Oh wow, I'm going with the Cleveland Cavaliers going into Toronto. 699 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:12,200 Speaker 3: Now you may say, oh, come on, of course the 700 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 3: Cavs are going to win, but this felt like a 701 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 3: trap game. Number one, number two, they said, DeAndre Hunter, 702 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,040 Speaker 3: you're going back to the bench. We're playing Max Struce 703 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 3: over you. I know, we just traded for you. And 704 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:24,680 Speaker 3: of course we are trying to get better defensively. Our 705 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 3: eighth ranked defense needs to get better. Our number one 706 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 3: offense is pretty good. So do we need Max Drews 707 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:32,960 Speaker 3: in starting line? Well, I think they are still trying 708 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 3: to improve their defense, but they're still wanting to do 709 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 3: it a bit slower. They still want to communicate. All 710 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 3: they do is talk about communicating, communicating, communicating, and I 711 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 3: think they just want to improve their starting lineup and 712 00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 3: then they'll do it slowly. And Max Strews came into 713 00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:52,520 Speaker 3: the starting lineup back to his role, and he banged 714 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 3: home shot after shot after shot, three threes in just 715 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 3: over three minutes of play to start this game. Four 716 00:31:58,120 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 3: threes in the first quarter. So they want to keep 717 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:01,239 Speaker 3: that chemist going. It could have been a trap game 718 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 3: for this Cleveland Cavaliers team, but they spanked the Raptors 719 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 3: in the first quarter. It was basically over from there. 720 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,760 Speaker 3: Forty one to seventeen in that first quarter. Pretty disappointing 721 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 3: for Toronto. The Calves are so good at switching and 722 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:15,959 Speaker 3: helping at the rim. They're playing off Scottie Barnes just 723 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 3: to touch who I think got into a bad juju 724 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:25,640 Speaker 3: after getting a tech on the first possession, essentially thirty 725 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 3: seconds into this game. He just clapped. He said it 726 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 3: was off of Evan Mobley, it's my ball, but he 727 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:35,000 Speaker 3: got a tech for that. Jack Armstrong on the Raptors broadcast, 728 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 3: he channeled, I think some Tommy Heinzen. This is what 729 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 3: Jack Armstrong said, give me a break. This guy's too 730 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 3: much talking about the referee. You're giving a guy a 731 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 3: tech for that. Come on, man, check your ego at 732 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:51,520 Speaker 3: the door, big fella. Ridiculous. I love Jack, and I 733 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 3: think it got into Scotty's hat a little bit. He 734 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 3: played eleven minutes the most of the Toronto Raptors in 735 00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 3: that first quarter, and they got spanked in every single 736 00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,720 Speaker 3: one of those minutes. Now, Scotty had a fine game, 737 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:06,240 Speaker 3: but after winning the night before, they didn't play the 738 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 3: same way. And this is what we're gonna ask of 739 00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:11,920 Speaker 3: Scotty to be a number one guy with Brandon Ingram 740 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,240 Speaker 3: and Manual Quickly and RJ Barrett making all those bucks. 741 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 3: So that didn't work out, But I think it did 742 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:19,240 Speaker 3: work out for Kenny Atkinson, who basically said, look, we're 743 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:22,960 Speaker 3: trying to communicate more. You work on a playoff adjustment 744 00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:25,360 Speaker 3: a day. That's his quote. He still left from Tylu, 745 00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:27,880 Speaker 3: but that's what they're working on. And he said this 746 00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:30,959 Speaker 3: team was a basic coverage team last year defensively, so 747 00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:33,080 Speaker 3: they're trying everything. But they didn't want to just throw 748 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:36,360 Speaker 3: DeAndre Hunter into the mix, and the Cavs are showing 749 00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:39,320 Speaker 3: why they can be a championship team. And an I 750 00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:41,360 Speaker 3: like this going into the All Star Break could have 751 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 3: been a poopy game. Yeah, but this is a good 752 00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:44,200 Speaker 3: one for them. Mo obvious. 753 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, here's a playoff adjustment. Tell Tristan Thompson not to 754 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:49,400 Speaker 2: be a dick at the end of the game. All right, 755 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 2: that's so we're taking away from this one, said Kenny 756 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:53,360 Speaker 2: to the locker room. I'm sure, hey, Tristan, stop being 757 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:56,200 Speaker 2: a dick. What are you doing dunking the ball with 758 00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:59,080 Speaker 2: like no time left? Obviously the game is a blowout, 759 00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:01,720 Speaker 2: and then it kicked off, you know, everybody being upset 760 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:05,200 Speaker 2: Darko included Raptors head coach. I mean it was actually funny. Yeah, 761 00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:06,640 Speaker 2: even Donovan Mitchell, like what do you do? 762 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 3: What are you doing? Dude? Why why do he need 763 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 3: a two hands dunk? 764 00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:14,600 Speaker 2: Like does he have like a clause in his contract 765 00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:16,200 Speaker 2: like he needs to hit a certain amount of points 766 00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:18,120 Speaker 2: this season? I was wondering He's like, damn, I better 767 00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:20,920 Speaker 2: take these easy too. But that was pretty funny. 768 00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:22,920 Speaker 1: But yeah, he seems like the kind of guy that 769 00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:24,279 Speaker 1: would get upset of. 770 00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:26,279 Speaker 2: Course he won. Of course he won. 771 00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 3: Yes, Yeah, what did he do in Paris last year? 772 00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:31,359 Speaker 3: He got mad? 773 00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 2: Well, he got Yeah, he got sort of dunked on 774 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:35,440 Speaker 2: and there was some like trash talking and yeah, you 775 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:36,960 Speaker 2: got pissed off because it was a young guy doing 776 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 2: it to him. That's the weird part. It's like he's 777 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:41,080 Speaker 2: a vet. It's strange he's the one doing this. It's 778 00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 2: like usually like a twenty one year old, you're like, okay, man, 779 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:44,680 Speaker 2: you don't need to do that. You're sort of it's 780 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 2: just a bad look, you know. But he's like the 781 00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:49,279 Speaker 2: old one of the oldest guys in the league probably 782 00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:49,799 Speaker 2: at this point. 783 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:53,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, Skates. You remember that time we went to uh, 784 00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 1: I don't know who it was. It was a Raptors game. 785 00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:57,719 Speaker 1: It was in Toronto as a Jonas Valanciu and it's 786 00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:01,120 Speaker 1: very early in his career. Game over. He's standing at 787 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:03,200 Speaker 1: heck Horon. Butler comes up to me. He's like, hey, 788 00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:05,799 Speaker 1: let me see that. He his hands in the ball. 789 00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:08,480 Speaker 1: Butler just goes down the court and scores an easy lamp. 790 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:09,320 Speaker 1: That was awesome. 791 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:11,959 Speaker 2: Yeah, look, it's even Tristan doing it. 792 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:12,959 Speaker 1: It was so weird. 793 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:14,880 Speaker 2: It was funny and it was straight into it. But 794 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:17,160 Speaker 2: it isn't like what are you doing? Because like that 795 00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:20,440 Speaker 2: don't even Mitchell reaction like you said, even he looks perplexed, 796 00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:23,200 Speaker 2: like why is this going on? What is what's going on? 797 00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:25,640 Speaker 2: And then you gotta be upset if you're the Raptors 798 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:28,719 Speaker 2: and everybody boo him darka'll hold me back t your 799 00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:29,319 Speaker 2: dukes up. 800 00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:32,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, Donovan is trying to be a leader on the scenemen. 801 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,520 Speaker 3: When I talk about communicating, being communicative, he is the 802 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:37,640 Speaker 3: one who's always talking about it. So to see mister 803 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:41,880 Speaker 3: Tristan Thompson just get a dunk for for what dude? 804 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:45,680 Speaker 3: Uh just anger fans homecoming game? 805 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:47,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I mean that's the other party's Canadian. 806 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:49,880 Speaker 2: This is very funny too, from the. 807 00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:52,120 Speaker 1: Last time Toronto was seeing a Tristan Thompson dunk with 808 00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:52,759 Speaker 1: their own eyes. 809 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:56,240 Speaker 3: It's the first time and probably last time in along 810 00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 3: quite possible. 811 00:35:58,360 --> 00:35:59,879 Speaker 1: Sketzy picked number eight. 812 00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:02,840 Speaker 2: Okay, still lots left on the board, but with my 813 00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:06,120 Speaker 2: number eight pick, gimme Tatum scoring thirty two as the 814 00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 2: Celtics beat Wemby and the Spurs one sixteen one oh three, 815 00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 2: I just want to show a little more love to Tatum, 816 00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 2: who's dominating right now thirty two to fourteen in this game. 817 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 2: Had some assists as well, and they won their third straight, 818 00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:23,400 Speaker 2: seventh and eight games. For the Celtics, they're missing Jalen Brown, 819 00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:26,879 Speaker 2: missing Drew Holiday, that's okay. Porzingis balled out twenty nine 820 00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 2: points six boards. I love when Porzingis has the inside 821 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 2: game going matched with the three point shots and those 822 00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:35,359 Speaker 2: deep bombs that he can hit, and he hit won. 823 00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:38,320 Speaker 2: Even Wemby was surprised he was pulling from where he pulled, 824 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:41,120 Speaker 2: so he was great. Derek White chipped in nineteen points 825 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:46,040 Speaker 2: ninety six seven boards. It's you know, like they started 826 00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:48,279 Speaker 2: the season on fire, then they had the lull and 827 00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:50,360 Speaker 2: a lot of us are like, don't worry, this is 828 00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:52,600 Speaker 2: the defending champs. They took their foot off the gas. 829 00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:54,919 Speaker 2: They're okay. But there was a whole lot said about 830 00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 2: them and written about them for no reason because they 831 00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:00,560 Speaker 2: really have turned it up here in the new year 832 00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 2: and sort of found their footing heading into the break 833 00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:05,080 Speaker 2: and that's without even some of the guys in the lineup. 834 00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:07,879 Speaker 2: So that was just, you know, they've been really really 835 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:11,360 Speaker 2: strong and are like reminding people. I think that they 836 00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:13,200 Speaker 2: should still be probably the favorites come out of the 837 00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:13,880 Speaker 2: Eastern Conference. 838 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:16,680 Speaker 3: I'm with you on the Porzingis game. To see him 839 00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:20,919 Speaker 3: inside all seven shots inside the arc that he made, 840 00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:23,400 Speaker 3: that's important stuff. Then that's fun to watch from him 841 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:24,880 Speaker 3: when it's not just a three point game. And he 842 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,560 Speaker 3: just saw Victor and said, yeah, I can take you man, 843 00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:28,920 Speaker 3: I can do it. 844 00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:29,160 Speaker 1: I can. 845 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 2: I mean it was Harrison Barnes on him a lot too, 846 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 2: and Castle got switched on him because I was like, Okay, 847 00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:35,359 Speaker 2: they're just way too small. Yeah. 848 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:37,120 Speaker 1: I saw he threw like a cool pass in the 849 00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:39,239 Speaker 1: lane over his shoulder like that. He called it a 850 00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:40,320 Speaker 1: Yokic pass himself. 851 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:40,719 Speaker 2: Oh wow. 852 00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:44,200 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. The Celtics then figured things out. They didn't 853 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:47,239 Speaker 1: even shoot very well last night thirty three percent from three, 854 00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:50,080 Speaker 1: but they've figured out or they've started playing defense again. 855 00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:51,560 Speaker 1: That was the big thing. We knew the shooting would 856 00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:54,120 Speaker 1: turn around eventually. They're holding teams to around one hundred 857 00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:57,240 Speaker 1: points a game for the basically for the month of February. 858 00:37:57,320 --> 00:37:59,560 Speaker 1: So good stuff from them as well. 859 00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:01,320 Speaker 2: Anything on this one SKA, Well, yeah, I wanted to 860 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 2: get your opinion on a koc tweeked because he was 861 00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:06,360 Speaker 2: very upset with the Spurs last night, Kevin O'Connor tweeting 862 00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:09,480 Speaker 2: the Spurs lineups or a joke after adding Darren Fox, 863 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 2: ninety three year old Chris Paul is still starting with 864 00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:16,280 Speaker 2: Stefan Castle receiving even less playing time despite outperforming CP 865 00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:19,360 Speaker 2: three by a lot. This is the choice of a 866 00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:21,759 Speaker 2: team that doesn't actually want to make the playoffs, a 867 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:25,440 Speaker 2: quiet tank. I was like, ah, so, I was just curious, 868 00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 2: do you agree disagree with KAOC? Does you have a 869 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,080 Speaker 2: point here that this is sort of what the Spurs 870 00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:31,960 Speaker 2: are doing a little bit or what's your read on it? 871 00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:35,480 Speaker 1: Are they quiet tanking maybe a little bit. I think 872 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:37,359 Speaker 1: it makes sense for the Spurs to keep a high 873 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:39,360 Speaker 1: draft pick this year because they're probably not going to 874 00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:42,919 Speaker 1: get very money of them in the future, so get 875 00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:46,279 Speaker 1: in while you can, I suppose. But they also probably 876 00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:47,920 Speaker 1: want to put as much shooting on the court as 877 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:51,640 Speaker 1: they possibly can. Basically a toss up between Chris Paul 878 00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:55,040 Speaker 1: and Stefan Castle in that respect, maybe a little more 879 00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:57,800 Speaker 1: confidence that Chris Paul will hit him when they matter. 880 00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:01,520 Speaker 1: So I don't know, there's just seems like we're still 881 00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:04,879 Speaker 1: trying to keep our team veteran heavy to me, and 882 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:07,279 Speaker 1: we don't really care about the results, because if they 883 00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:09,799 Speaker 1: cared about the results, they would be trying to win 884 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 1: some of these games. It just hasn't happened yet. I 885 00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:14,480 Speaker 1: think Devin Vessell is more of a question mark for me, 886 00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:18,160 Speaker 1: just such a streaky player, and I wonder if he 887 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:20,920 Speaker 1: will remain in the long term plans for the Spurs 888 00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:22,880 Speaker 1: going forward, because Castle seems to have a little bit 889 00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:25,799 Speaker 1: higher of a ceiling than Devin Vesseille hasn't quite turned 890 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:27,320 Speaker 1: out what the Spurs were thinking. 891 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:31,800 Speaker 3: I think Jeremy so Hennis played enough minutes since the trade. 892 00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:34,239 Speaker 3: He's played in a lot of minutes. Now there's a 893 00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:36,879 Speaker 3: Wizard's game where he only played nineteen minutes. Well it's 894 00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:40,799 Speaker 3: the Wizards. I think they're playing Chris Paul a good chunk. Yeah, 895 00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:42,480 Speaker 3: we only played twenty four minutes last night. I don't 896 00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:45,400 Speaker 3: think it's that big of a Hey, we need to 897 00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:48,799 Speaker 3: lose now. The old man doesn't have that many more 898 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:51,799 Speaker 3: games in him. Let him play, I mean, get the 899 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,319 Speaker 3: most out of him, and then we'll get the most 900 00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:56,759 Speaker 3: out of Stefoncastle. So the Foncastle was not part of trade. 901 00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:58,319 Speaker 3: He ain't going anywhere. He's going to be a huge 902 00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:00,359 Speaker 3: part of this team. There's no doubt about that. Yeah. 903 00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:03,600 Speaker 2: I just thought it was interesting because I hear you, Trey, like, okay, 904 00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:05,279 Speaker 2: you keep the pick, You keep the pick. I mean, okay, 905 00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:07,759 Speaker 2: that's good, but sort of runs counterintuitive to what you 906 00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:09,680 Speaker 2: and I were saying when they made the Fox move, 907 00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:13,279 Speaker 2: and it was like, yeah, get Wemby into playing games, right, 908 00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:15,560 Speaker 2: that's what we wanted, like get those reps of just 909 00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:17,560 Speaker 2: high stakes basketball, and it's sort of like that is 910 00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:21,000 Speaker 2: slipping away from them here as the season goes on, 911 00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:22,920 Speaker 2: as we hit the All Star break, I know they 912 00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:25,200 Speaker 2: were still within reach, but there's so many teams it 913 00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:26,799 Speaker 2: feels like they're gonna be one of those teams on 914 00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,680 Speaker 2: the outside looking in. So maybe they've made that calculated decision. 915 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:32,000 Speaker 2: It's all about like getting reps with Fox and Wemby 916 00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:34,720 Speaker 2: and figuring out lineups and then you just add another 917 00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:36,840 Speaker 2: pick and go from there. I guess for next season. 918 00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:39,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I would imagine Castle as a starter by next 919 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:42,120 Speaker 1: season when they really try and win. But you're right, 920 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:45,160 Speaker 1: Spurs are definitely falling out of things here, and honestly, 921 00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:48,560 Speaker 1: Wemby looks pretty gassed. Name this one, So we'll see 922 00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:50,480 Speaker 1: how he returns after the break, where he's obviously going 923 00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:53,160 Speaker 1: to be very busy as well. Another team stealth tanking 924 00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:55,360 Speaker 1: is the Sixers. They're down to six that they're losing 925 00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:58,200 Speaker 1: to the Nets. Well, last night they're into their protected zone. 926 00:40:58,200 --> 00:40:59,960 Speaker 1: Paul George put up a whopping two points. 927 00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 3: WHOA. 928 00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:02,520 Speaker 1: I'd love to see that guy show up and put 929 00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:04,920 Speaker 1: the team on his back. Well he's helping them out 930 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:08,560 Speaker 1: keep their pick. Anyways, my number nine pick final pick 931 00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:12,720 Speaker 1: around here, I thought like an absolute sicko enjoying Pacers 932 00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:16,640 Speaker 1: versus Wizards last night. A nice fourth quarter comeback from Indiana. 933 00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:20,040 Speaker 1: They'd come in losers of three of their last four games, 934 00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:22,719 Speaker 1: but they really turned up the ball pressure on Washington 935 00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:28,200 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter. They forced five turnovers zero for Indiana. 936 00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:31,040 Speaker 1: They came back from thirteen down. Obi Topen was monster 937 00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:33,160 Speaker 1: in this game. Thirty one points, twenty eight of those 938 00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:35,960 Speaker 1: came through three quarters. He hit six threes, really kept 939 00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:38,960 Speaker 1: them in the game through the first three quarters. Then 940 00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:42,640 Speaker 1: Ben the Baker Mathrin twenty eight points fifteen between the 941 00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:45,399 Speaker 1: fourth quarter and overtime. He helped to get them over 942 00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:46,960 Speaker 1: the line for the win. But I gotta admit I 943 00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:50,600 Speaker 1: got a little crush on these Washington Wizards. Doesn't happen often, 944 00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:53,680 Speaker 1: but they are fun to watch when they're playing well. 945 00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:58,520 Speaker 1: Jordan Poole last night forty two points five assists, went 946 00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:02,040 Speaker 1: bozo mode at the end of regulation and at the 947 00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:05,200 Speaker 1: end of overtime. But you throw out those thirty seconds. 948 00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:07,960 Speaker 1: Everything else was pretty nice. And you look at the 949 00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:10,319 Speaker 1: team and I think there's a lot of guys that 950 00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:13,400 Speaker 1: currently play for the Wizards who will still be playing 951 00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:16,600 Speaker 1: for the Wizards when they're actually a competitive team next. 952 00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:20,000 Speaker 1: They do need a dynamic guard in the style of 953 00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:23,040 Speaker 1: Jordan Poole, like when he's playing well. The team makes 954 00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:25,440 Speaker 1: a whole bunch of sense. The ideal version of him 955 00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:28,040 Speaker 1: would be great. I mean, like, ain't getting a Steph Curry. 956 00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:30,680 Speaker 1: You're probably not getting a Tray young, but somebody along 957 00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:33,000 Speaker 1: those lines who can handle the ball shoot from outside 958 00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:34,400 Speaker 1: is huge. The other thing they need is like a 959 00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:37,680 Speaker 1: Jason Tatum style forward who would be the number one 960 00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:40,040 Speaker 1: pick in this draft, Cooper Flag. If they hit, that's 961 00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:43,680 Speaker 1: awesome for the Wizards. I see the vision. That's all. 962 00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:45,839 Speaker 3: Yeah. They are playing those young guys a lot too, 963 00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:48,120 Speaker 3: so you're likely playing them because you want to keep them. 964 00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:52,960 Speaker 3: To see bub Bub Carrington get forty four minutes beside 965 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:54,360 Speaker 3: Jordan Poole, who. 966 00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:56,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, it's a love hate with him. 967 00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:59,840 Speaker 3: He's asking the fans cheer for me, get up, and 968 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:02,719 Speaker 3: so he is one of those guys. He's like a 969 00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:06,840 Speaker 3: wrestler out there in a way, like does some dumb things, 970 00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:11,839 Speaker 3: but also he wants to be loved. And I think 971 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:14,480 Speaker 3: I think those two guys, along with blal and Keishan, 972 00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:16,840 Speaker 3: George and Alex Aar there's so many young guys, so 973 00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:19,640 Speaker 3: they are gonna lose a lot. But yeah, I think 974 00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:21,839 Speaker 3: you're right. In that couple of years from now, they're 975 00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:25,080 Speaker 3: probably still gonna have all those guys. I think they're 976 00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:26,320 Speaker 3: gonna have all those guys. 977 00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:30,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's quite possible. There's definitely potential upgrades they could do. 978 00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:33,680 Speaker 1: But those guys all fit well together. They just need 979 00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:36,000 Speaker 1: the actual stars because I think they've got like the 980 00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:38,960 Speaker 1: surrounding pieces. And honestly, Pool hasn't been bad this year. 981 00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:40,960 Speaker 1: He's less of a joke like it was shocked in 982 00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:43,319 Speaker 1: a Pool all of last season. We haven't done that 983 00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:45,239 Speaker 1: at all this year. We're talking about him wearing wizard 984 00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:49,560 Speaker 1: robes and being a cat daddy improvement for the Wizards. 985 00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:52,000 Speaker 1: Good stuff, they said, see you later, Kuzma. We got 986 00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:54,200 Speaker 1: everybody on the same page now, good stuff for them. 987 00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:55,680 Speaker 1: And he snubs from last night. 988 00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:58,959 Speaker 2: Oh my god, there's six games left. I mean, wow, 989 00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:00,840 Speaker 2: go ahead, you got one. 990 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:05,719 Speaker 3: When I was watching games, I was watching Pelicans and 991 00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:10,000 Speaker 3: the Kings and Kean Ellis was scorching hot. I thought 992 00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:12,600 Speaker 3: he was gonna have a career high. That guy was 993 00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:15,359 Speaker 3: on fire coming off the bench. Everything was going on him. 994 00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:18,200 Speaker 3: That guy took a shot from like four feet behind 995 00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:20,359 Speaker 3: the three point line. He doesn't do that, but he 996 00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:23,000 Speaker 3: was scorching on seven threes for him, scoring twenty seven points, 997 00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:25,759 Speaker 3: not his career high, although he I don't think he 998 00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:30,120 Speaker 3: scored more than more than twenty twice. He's got a 999 00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:31,799 Speaker 3: career high of thirty three. But I think this is 1000 00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:34,760 Speaker 3: just his second game of scoring higher than twenty points. 1001 00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:37,520 Speaker 3: If I'm not if I'm not incorrect, I think which 1002 00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:40,120 Speaker 3: is wild. Yeah, that's all my note. I love my 1003 00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:43,239 Speaker 3: Kian and Zach Lavine playing in his role player role. 1004 00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:45,160 Speaker 3: It's so weird to see him do that, but he 1005 00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:48,719 Speaker 3: is doing it just to be the the third and 1006 00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:53,319 Speaker 3: fourth guy. Basically, you might shoot, you might not. I 1007 00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:56,120 Speaker 3: mean it's it's he's really gone down at pecking order there. 1008 00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:57,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's just gonna have to get him where he 1009 00:44:57,520 --> 00:44:59,080 Speaker 1: fits in. I would also say the Bucks beating the 1010 00:44:59,080 --> 00:45:01,440 Speaker 1: timber Walls without young Us and Dan gets a little mentioned. 1011 00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:04,640 Speaker 1: Bobby portis Kyle Kuzma, Kevin Porter junior with a closing 1012 00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:08,120 Speaker 1: lineup here more ugly stuff from Anton the clutch. Yeah, 1013 00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:09,759 Speaker 1: he went for the two for one and took bad 1014 00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:11,960 Speaker 1: jumpers on both of them. I looked it up. Fifty 1015 00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:15,000 Speaker 1: seven percent of his shots during clutch time are three pointers. 1016 00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:18,000 Speaker 1: They shooting thirty one percent. Too many, too many. 1017 00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:20,680 Speaker 2: Three too many. He missed like fifteen straight shots at 1018 00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:21,520 Speaker 2: one point. That can do. 1019 00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:23,920 Speaker 1: Last night, yeah, he was, he was pretty cold. That's 1020 00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:25,520 Speaker 1: a bad loss I think for the timber Wolves. And 1021 00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:28,600 Speaker 1: the Bulls lost to the Pistons again, but only by eighteen. 1022 00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:31,400 Speaker 2: That is bad bad. And hey, look the nets are 1023 00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:33,080 Speaker 2: like in the mix for the play in now, are 1024 00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:33,279 Speaker 2: they not? 1025 00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:38,040 Speaker 1: He's a sixers are yeah, yeah, they're looking good. Uh 1026 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:40,480 Speaker 1: that's fans are mad though, that's fans are mad that 1027 00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:43,400 Speaker 1: they traded Michale Bridges everybody thought we're gonna be one 1028 00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:45,000 Speaker 1: of the five worst teams in the league, We're gonna 1029 00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:47,799 Speaker 1: get the number one pick, and instead they're competitive and 1030 00:45:47,840 --> 00:45:51,880 Speaker 1: they didn't trade Cam Johnson at the deadline. So weird stuff, 1031 00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:54,600 Speaker 1: but uh, a good loss I think for the Sixers 1032 00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:55,719 Speaker 1: last night. 1033 00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:58,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, I will say about Anthony Edwards. He hasn't come 1034 00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:01,600 Speaker 3: through in clutch in his career. This is a wild 1035 00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:04,799 Speaker 3: stat to me that with a chance to tie the 1036 00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:06,960 Speaker 3: game or take the lead with twenty four seconds or 1037 00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:09,879 Speaker 3: less left in the fourth or overtime, he's two of 1038 00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:13,840 Speaker 3: twenty one. And there's been lots that have rattled in 1039 00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:15,560 Speaker 3: and out. And he still has faith in his three 1040 00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:18,520 Speaker 3: point shot now that he's become such an incredible three 1041 00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:22,319 Speaker 3: point shooter. But that's a low number for a guy. Yeah, 1042 00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:24,080 Speaker 3: and he's decided I'll pull up for a three when 1043 00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:26,280 Speaker 3: he could have drove, that's for sure. But he saw Brooke, 1044 00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:28,920 Speaker 3: I guess, and Brook is big. That's a big Brook. 1045 00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:32,000 Speaker 1: That's a big Brook, big battle and Brook. That was 1046 00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:35,000 Speaker 1: a big schedule of games. We also got some news. 1047 00:46:35,840 --> 00:46:43,040 Speaker 1: Let's do is this news I'm so worried about calling it? 1048 00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:44,920 Speaker 1: Is this good that I forgot there was an intro, 1049 00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:48,920 Speaker 1: and the Pelicans announced yesterday that Herb Jones had undergone 1050 00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:52,920 Speaker 1: successful surgery to repair a tone rotator cuff in his shoulder. 1051 00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:55,560 Speaker 1: He's likely to miss the rest of the season. Tasted 1052 00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:56,120 Speaker 1: this news. 1053 00:46:57,360 --> 00:46:59,640 Speaker 3: I don't think it's news to anyone outside of New 1054 00:46:59,719 --> 00:47:02,920 Speaker 3: or Because I was trying to watch this game with 1055 00:47:03,080 --> 00:47:06,160 Speaker 3: Danielle beside me. I thought, we're watching Zion Williamson, We're 1056 00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:09,000 Speaker 3: watching a spectacular player, and I just wondered if she 1057 00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:11,200 Speaker 3: was going to get into it at all. But I 1058 00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:14,080 Speaker 3: think because of what has happened to when New Orleans, 1059 00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:18,000 Speaker 3: she didn't seem that into it. And everybody outside New 1060 00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:21,600 Speaker 3: Orleans who haven't seen de Jontey Murray go down with 1061 00:47:21,640 --> 00:47:24,239 Speaker 3: injury and now Herb Jones probably just look at this 1062 00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:28,080 Speaker 3: team and say, wow, that's sad, and that has been 1063 00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:30,719 Speaker 3: the story of their season. So yes, it's unfortunate that 1064 00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:33,080 Speaker 3: this guy is a such a talented guy, and they 1065 00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:34,960 Speaker 3: have so many talented guy. I just named three incredibly 1066 00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:37,880 Speaker 3: talented players. They should be far better. But it's just 1067 00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:40,080 Speaker 3: a sad, sad season for that period. 1068 00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:42,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, not much more to add. I mean, I am 1069 00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:46,279 Speaker 2: convinced this team is absolutely cursed. Someone put a hex 1070 00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:50,200 Speaker 2: on them there down in New Orleans. But yeah, I 1071 00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:52,399 Speaker 2: mean I remember we came into this season. I think 1072 00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:54,400 Speaker 2: it was this season, there was like shirts made that 1073 00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:57,799 Speaker 2: Herb Jones was like all defensive player worthy, if I 1074 00:47:57,800 --> 00:48:00,600 Speaker 2: remember correctly, somebody was maybe it was I'm rocking and 1075 00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:02,640 Speaker 2: I don't know. Anyway, it feels like a lifetime ago. 1076 00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:05,640 Speaker 2: But yeah, it banged up all season, came back, and 1077 00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:07,560 Speaker 2: then banged up again. So do you just shut him down? 1078 00:48:07,680 --> 00:48:10,520 Speaker 2: It sounds like for the rest of the season. You know, 1079 00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:13,279 Speaker 2: there's a reason why their defense is plummeted right until 1080 00:48:13,280 --> 00:48:15,279 Speaker 2: like dead lass in the league. They used to actually 1081 00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:18,080 Speaker 2: have a pretty good defense the Pels and Herb Jones 1082 00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:21,239 Speaker 2: Lay's a huge part of that. So he's important. Trey 1083 00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:23,799 Speaker 2: Murphy is gonna put up some huge stats here for 1084 00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:26,799 Speaker 2: the next couple months, and you know Zion's getting his too, 1085 00:48:26,840 --> 00:48:28,480 Speaker 2: so at least that'll be going for them if you've 1086 00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:30,920 Speaker 2: got him on your fantasy basketball team. Otherwise, it's just 1087 00:48:30,960 --> 00:48:33,040 Speaker 2: another season that you can like crumple up and throw 1088 00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:34,239 Speaker 2: away if you're a Pels fan. 1089 00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:36,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess the bright spot is Trey Murphy. This 1090 00:48:36,480 --> 00:48:38,719 Speaker 1: guy's been balling twenty five a game for basically a 1091 00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:41,440 Speaker 1: month looks awesome, but yeah, only twenty games this season 1092 00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:44,440 Speaker 1: for herb Johnes. Last time he played was January eighth. 1093 00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:47,160 Speaker 1: So heel up and let's see if we can get 1094 00:48:47,160 --> 00:48:50,200 Speaker 1: any better for next season New Orleans Pelicans. We shall see. 1095 00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:53,440 Speaker 1: The Lens sanity era has begun in Los Angeles and 1096 00:48:53,480 --> 00:48:56,320 Speaker 1: the Lakers signed Alex Lenn. They waved Christian Wood and 1097 00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:59,200 Speaker 1: then Len made his debut for the Lakers last night. 1098 00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:01,319 Speaker 1: Skeet zee, is this new? 1099 00:49:02,040 --> 00:49:04,799 Speaker 2: I can't believe how much Alex Len's name has been 1100 00:49:04,880 --> 00:49:07,000 Speaker 2: said over the last week or so. 1101 00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:09,719 Speaker 1: It is literally insane. Definition of you can have a 1102 00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:11,839 Speaker 1: fifteen year career if you're seven feet tall. 1103 00:49:12,080 --> 00:49:15,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, yep, and he's nothing. He's look. I think he 1104 00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:17,239 Speaker 2: had a pretty brutal game last night. I don't think 1105 00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:19,719 Speaker 2: the plus minus was kind to him in their loss 1106 00:49:19,760 --> 00:49:23,120 Speaker 2: to the Jazz in his sort of debut. I guess it. 1107 00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:27,200 Speaker 2: With the Lakers, ye this, No, this is not really news. 1108 00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:29,400 Speaker 2: I mean, I know, because they have no centers. 1109 00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:29,640 Speaker 1: It is. 1110 00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:32,239 Speaker 2: With only Jackson Hayes there on the Lakers roster, he 1111 00:49:32,280 --> 00:49:35,719 Speaker 2: gets an opportunity, but he's not that good. And he 1112 00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:39,400 Speaker 2: has rarely played on a winning basketball team in a 1113 00:49:39,520 --> 00:49:41,960 Speaker 2: very long career. I think his rookie season he was 1114 00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:44,279 Speaker 2: on a good Suns team that at least won forty 1115 00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:46,719 Speaker 2: eight games, and then he took a long time to 1116 00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:49,760 Speaker 2: get to the Kings where they finally made the playoffs. 1117 00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:51,560 Speaker 2: And we're a forty eight win team too, But there 1118 00:49:51,600 --> 00:49:53,359 Speaker 2: was a whole lot of stops in there that he's on, 1119 00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:56,680 Speaker 2: you know, twenty win teams and twenty five win teams 1120 00:49:56,719 --> 00:49:59,440 Speaker 2: and not sniffing the playoff teams. Like he just doesn't 1121 00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:00,880 Speaker 2: have that much of an impact. I don't think on 1122 00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:03,359 Speaker 2: a winning team. But he's a big boy. You want 1123 00:50:03,440 --> 00:50:05,919 Speaker 2: him to get rid bounds, but he's not good in fact, 1124 00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:08,480 Speaker 2: you know, we were debating what looks the Lakers' chances 1125 00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:10,680 Speaker 2: of winning the title this year now with Luca, we 1126 00:50:10,680 --> 00:50:12,480 Speaker 2: were like, I was like, I don't know, five percent. 1127 00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:14,880 Speaker 2: Maybe if it breaks right, I'm down to one percent 1128 00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:17,600 Speaker 2: because now Len's on the team. I swear to God 1129 00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:20,240 Speaker 2: man like, I just don't see a championship team winning 1130 00:50:20,239 --> 00:50:21,600 Speaker 2: with Alex lenn on the roster. 1131 00:50:21,719 --> 00:50:22,160 Speaker 1: I don't. 1132 00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:24,440 Speaker 2: So it is what it is. 1133 00:50:24,600 --> 00:50:27,160 Speaker 3: He has been on a lot of teams as you said, 1134 00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:29,920 Speaker 3: but he was rarely used a lot. He comes off 1135 00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:31,600 Speaker 3: the bench too, that's for sure. 1136 00:50:31,360 --> 00:50:33,200 Speaker 2: But he's on bad teams and he was rarely used. 1137 00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:35,360 Speaker 3: Yes, yes, I think the best team he's ever played 1138 00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:38,160 Speaker 3: on was the Ukrainian national team when coaches are Mike 1139 00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:41,120 Speaker 3: Furtello was coaching them and coaching him. That's all I 1140 00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:43,359 Speaker 3: remember lent for. And I think we've talked about him 1141 00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:47,040 Speaker 3: so much. The steal my Sunshine joke is I might 1142 00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:47,439 Speaker 3: be dead. 1143 00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:48,080 Speaker 2: I don't know. 1144 00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:51,120 Speaker 3: I guess not since he signed again, we've told that 1145 00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:53,120 Speaker 3: joke every every time we talk about Alex Line, it's 1146 00:50:53,120 --> 00:50:55,200 Speaker 3: to steal my son. Oh yeah, we have to. We 1147 00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:57,000 Speaker 3: have to because Alex Line comes off the bench and 1148 00:50:57,040 --> 00:51:00,640 Speaker 3: does not a lot for basketball team and reference. 1149 00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:02,600 Speaker 2: By the way, do Americans even get that when we 1150 00:51:02,640 --> 00:51:04,200 Speaker 2: say because yeah. 1151 00:51:04,120 --> 00:51:06,760 Speaker 1: It's the only song anybody knows from Lenn? 1152 00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:09,279 Speaker 2: So if you pulled one hundred Americans, do you know 1153 00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:10,920 Speaker 2: who Len is? Like? 1154 00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:14,000 Speaker 1: How many sounds on the age? Yeah? I guess thirty five. 1155 00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:16,040 Speaker 2: Up our age they do? Okay, Okay, that's good to hear. 1156 00:51:16,239 --> 00:51:19,200 Speaker 1: Who had a better career Len the band or Alex Lenn. 1157 00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:21,120 Speaker 3: Really good question. 1158 00:51:21,200 --> 00:51:23,359 Speaker 2: Honestly, the band because they had a hit. 1159 00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:25,960 Speaker 3: Yeah they had a hit. Yeah we're talking about them 1160 00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:26,879 Speaker 3: thirty years later. 1161 00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:29,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a wow. 1162 00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:34,200 Speaker 1: I do love the way that guy says, bro, you're 1163 00:51:34,239 --> 00:51:37,239 Speaker 1: not British, maybe because I literally know whether so. I 1164 00:51:37,280 --> 00:51:39,799 Speaker 1: was looking at Alex Len's basketball reference and honestly, I'm 1165 00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:43,560 Speaker 1: not going to next question gave us more details about 1166 00:51:43,560 --> 00:51:47,200 Speaker 1: Sunday Nights All Star Tournament. We've got team names and 1167 00:51:47,239 --> 00:51:52,120 Speaker 1: a schedule. Kenny's Young Stars will face Chuck's Global Stars 1168 00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:56,239 Speaker 1: in one of the semi finals, and Shacks Ogs will 1169 00:51:56,280 --> 00:52:00,960 Speaker 1: face Canvas Parker's Rising Stars and the other semi Is 1170 00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:01,640 Speaker 1: this news? 1171 00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:09,759 Speaker 3: I can't decide. I think the four team idea is 1172 00:52:09,800 --> 00:52:12,520 Speaker 3: a fine idea, and I think guys will play harder 1173 00:52:12,560 --> 00:52:14,799 Speaker 3: on some possessions. I think there's no doubt about that. 1174 00:52:14,840 --> 00:52:17,480 Speaker 3: I am a little bit worried with all of these 1175 00:52:18,640 --> 00:52:22,279 Speaker 3: accessory type things we're doing here, with Kevin Hart also 1176 00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:24,640 Speaker 3: grabbing the mic as the MC, I'm a little bit 1177 00:52:24,680 --> 00:52:27,000 Speaker 3: worried that we're getting away from basketball. I'm totally fine 1178 00:52:27,400 --> 00:52:31,080 Speaker 3: with obviously Shack and Chuck and Kenny and Kennis being 1179 00:52:31,160 --> 00:52:33,960 Speaker 3: a part of everything as coaches. That's fine. 1180 00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:38,000 Speaker 2: Are they coaches. I don't think so. I don't think 1181 00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:40,719 Speaker 2: they're all bad. They just drafted the teams. Yeah, it's 1182 00:52:40,760 --> 00:52:44,120 Speaker 2: the assistant like, it's the coaches of the winning teams, right, yes, 1183 00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:47,600 Speaker 2: in both conferences and their assistants. Yeah, I think. Well, 1184 00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:48,879 Speaker 2: I don't know, they're teams. 1185 00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:52,839 Speaker 3: Of something anyway, I guess this this proves that during 1186 00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:57,160 Speaker 3: the draft, as you said, Skeets, that they were drafting 1187 00:52:57,200 --> 00:53:00,600 Speaker 3: guys with a particular country that they came from or 1188 00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:01,960 Speaker 3: a particular age that they came to. 1189 00:53:02,160 --> 00:53:04,400 Speaker 2: It was rigged. Yeah, it was absolutely rigged by the 1190 00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:07,760 Speaker 2: NBA and fair enough, like okay, good, Like the guys 1191 00:53:07,800 --> 00:53:09,880 Speaker 2: made their picks way too quick. Somebody pointed out to me, 1192 00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:12,759 Speaker 2: Charles Barkley usually takes like ten minutes to like make 1193 00:53:12,800 --> 00:53:14,520 Speaker 2: a decision. You know, he's just looking at his sheet 1194 00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:17,040 Speaker 2: and naming the next international player. That's why he got 1195 00:53:17,040 --> 00:53:19,440 Speaker 2: them all. Obviously, Shack had the Ogs and then yeah, 1196 00:53:19,480 --> 00:53:21,960 Speaker 2: Kenny went with the young stars, and he kept saying, like, 1197 00:53:22,480 --> 00:53:24,200 Speaker 2: you know, he can't trust the old guys in an 1198 00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:26,600 Speaker 2: All Star game, and for whatever his reasoning was with 1199 00:53:26,640 --> 00:53:29,080 Speaker 2: the international guy, the same thing. They don't take it seriously. 1200 00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:32,239 Speaker 3: But at first he was calling them his guy's millennials. Yeah, 1201 00:53:32,280 --> 00:53:36,279 Speaker 3: and he transformed into gen Z. Yeah, transferred because they're 1202 00:53:36,280 --> 00:53:38,040 Speaker 3: not millennials, dude, they're gen Z's. 1203 00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:38,399 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1204 00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:38,840 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1205 00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:42,000 Speaker 2: But we were wondering who would play who, and I 1206 00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:45,520 Speaker 2: think this just reconfirms, like, yeah, they wanted to set 1207 00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:49,600 Speaker 2: this up because they want world versus the Americans, and 1208 00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:53,760 Speaker 2: that's you know, we don't have Kenny's Young Stars playing Shacks. 1209 00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:56,200 Speaker 2: Oh actually, hold on, then that's the opposite of what 1210 00:53:56,239 --> 00:53:59,200 Speaker 2: should happen, because then you'd be more likely to get 1211 00:53:59,239 --> 00:54:01,600 Speaker 2: an American team versus the international team. I take it 1212 00:54:01,640 --> 00:54:04,879 Speaker 2: all back. They screwed this up because we could have 1213 00:54:05,239 --> 00:54:07,680 Speaker 2: the young Americans versus the old Americans. Then maybe they'll 1214 00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:10,240 Speaker 2: be happy with that narrative as well in the finals. 1215 00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:13,240 Speaker 2: But I did learn that we have the start times 1216 00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:15,600 Speaker 2: apparently for these games, because I clicked through on that 1217 00:54:15,680 --> 00:54:17,640 Speaker 2: link on NBA dot Com and it had like a 1218 00:54:17,719 --> 00:54:20,040 Speaker 2: video getting ready for the game. So the first game 1219 00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:24,040 Speaker 2: Kenny's Team versus Chucks eight twenty eastern. And I bring 1220 00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:26,399 Speaker 2: this up because I thought, well, when's that next game 1221 00:54:26,440 --> 00:54:30,959 Speaker 2: schedule for it says Shack versus Cannis's Rising Stars nine 1222 00:54:31,080 --> 00:54:35,600 Speaker 2: ten eastern, So a fifty minute difference, gotta change the 1223 00:54:35,640 --> 00:54:37,560 Speaker 2: court between the two game. Well no, I'm just like, 1224 00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:40,160 Speaker 2: what's gonna be happening between these little mini games. It 1225 00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:42,560 Speaker 2: ain't gonna take forty five minutes to play that first game. 1226 00:54:42,560 --> 00:54:44,080 Speaker 2: I'll tell you that it's hard. 1227 00:54:44,080 --> 00:54:47,960 Speaker 1: They got len it'd be amazing, And then you should 1228 00:54:47,960 --> 00:54:51,560 Speaker 1: have more flavor. It's all Stars, Stars, Stars. Oh the 1229 00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:54,960 Speaker 1: name it is the All Star Game. Yeah, but how 1230 00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:58,320 Speaker 1: about uh David Bowie's Young Americans? 1231 00:54:58,440 --> 00:55:00,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, okay, they. 1232 00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:02,480 Speaker 1: Could have golf for something else. Check out the ogs. 1233 00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:03,640 Speaker 1: I think they could have done something. 1234 00:55:03,719 --> 00:55:07,279 Speaker 2: Yeah they are, but they're stars, yeah, barl stars. I 1235 00:55:07,320 --> 00:55:09,399 Speaker 2: did think of this, though. Who knows if we stick 1236 00:55:09,400 --> 00:55:11,719 Speaker 2: with this format, right, this little mini tournament format. If 1237 00:55:11,760 --> 00:55:16,880 Speaker 2: we do, though, Jason Tatum will end as the leader 1238 00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:19,480 Speaker 2: for most points scored in an All Star Game. You're right, 1239 00:55:19,520 --> 00:55:21,680 Speaker 2: he has the record. He scored fifty five back in 1240 00:55:21,680 --> 00:55:24,600 Speaker 2: twenty twenty three. And if we're done with the actual 1241 00:55:24,680 --> 00:55:27,120 Speaker 2: normal forty eight minute basketball game of an All Star Game, 1242 00:55:27,160 --> 00:55:28,120 Speaker 2: then that's his forever. 1243 00:55:29,440 --> 00:55:32,120 Speaker 1: That's a great point. These guys say they never want 1244 00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:35,479 Speaker 1: to change the rules because the record book won't look right, right, 1245 00:55:35,640 --> 00:55:37,560 Speaker 1: and they're just throwing it to the win like this, 1246 00:55:37,760 --> 00:55:38,239 Speaker 1: And then how. 1247 00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:40,520 Speaker 2: Are we getting giving an MVP in this? Are we 1248 00:55:40,640 --> 00:55:44,000 Speaker 2: taking into consideration the first game that got your team 1249 00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:46,120 Speaker 2: to the final or is it just the following? Man, 1250 00:55:46,200 --> 00:55:48,839 Speaker 2: these are the things I think about here in space. Man, 1251 00:55:49,560 --> 00:55:52,200 Speaker 2: you've got time, Yeah, it's all I got, all right? 1252 00:55:52,200 --> 00:55:55,799 Speaker 1: So what if what if a guy scores thirty eight 1253 00:55:55,840 --> 00:55:58,360 Speaker 1: points but his team loses the first game? Would he 1254 00:55:58,400 --> 00:55:59,120 Speaker 1: still be the MVP? 1255 00:55:59,640 --> 00:56:02,520 Speaker 2: Okay, let me ask this a different way. Guy scores 1256 00:56:02,600 --> 00:56:04,880 Speaker 2: thirty points out of the forty in the first game 1257 00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:08,839 Speaker 2: and then goes the second game scores one. He ain't 1258 00:56:08,840 --> 00:56:10,960 Speaker 2: getting MVP. You can't give it to him. Clear the 1259 00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:13,640 Speaker 2: only reason he's there. It's gonna be an issue. 1260 00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:16,360 Speaker 1: There's a lot. I got a lot of concerns about 1261 00:56:16,360 --> 00:56:17,920 Speaker 1: the logistics of this now. 1262 00:56:18,120 --> 00:56:19,800 Speaker 3: And there's far fewer points to score. 1263 00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:20,759 Speaker 2: That's right. 1264 00:56:20,760 --> 00:56:22,360 Speaker 3: I used to score to two hundred. Now they just 1265 00:56:22,360 --> 00:56:23,799 Speaker 3: have to score. Their team has to get to eight. 1266 00:56:23,920 --> 00:56:25,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, you will get eighty points. You can hit mac 1267 00:56:25,920 --> 00:56:28,440 Speaker 2: two games as one guy. Yea, So maybe somebody could 1268 00:56:28,440 --> 00:56:32,280 Speaker 2: beat Tatum's record across two games the coup it wouldn't 1269 00:56:32,320 --> 00:56:32,680 Speaker 2: count to me. 1270 00:56:32,840 --> 00:56:33,520 Speaker 1: Same yeah. 1271 00:56:33,840 --> 00:56:34,200 Speaker 2: God no. 1272 00:56:34,680 --> 00:56:36,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, so you're saying, is so we're going back to 1273 00:56:36,880 --> 00:56:38,239 Speaker 3: the game next year it's your field. 1274 00:56:38,239 --> 00:56:40,880 Speaker 2: Oh yeah yeah yeah. After this doesn't work and they 1275 00:56:40,880 --> 00:56:42,719 Speaker 2: don't do anything differently, yeah, we'll just go back to 1276 00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:43,560 Speaker 2: playing basketball. 1277 00:56:43,600 --> 00:56:47,799 Speaker 1: Baby, back to basketball. That was last year, literally last year, 1278 00:56:47,800 --> 00:56:50,239 Speaker 1: and they were back to they changed it this year, 1279 00:56:50,280 --> 00:56:52,160 Speaker 1: and Kevin Durant's like, yeah, we should just go back 1280 00:56:52,160 --> 00:56:56,920 Speaker 1: to basketball. Oh yeah, excuse me. The league anounced Wednesday 1281 00:56:56,920 --> 00:57:00,000 Speaker 1: that Nuggets guard Julian Strawther will be replacing the Blazer 1282 00:57:00,320 --> 00:57:04,080 Speaker 1: Scoot Henderson in the Rising Stars event after Scoot hurt 1283 00:57:04,120 --> 00:57:07,479 Speaker 1: his ankle. Is this news, Trey? Yeah, this is sad 1284 00:57:07,480 --> 00:57:10,040 Speaker 1: news for fans of our shorts because Scoot Henderson will 1285 00:57:10,080 --> 00:57:13,080 Speaker 1: no longer be playing it's fourth Rising Stars. But I 1286 00:57:13,080 --> 00:57:15,600 Speaker 1: think he still gets a mention probably on Basketball Reference 1287 00:57:15,600 --> 00:57:17,160 Speaker 1: and his Wikipedia page, so that's great. 1288 00:57:17,480 --> 00:57:20,120 Speaker 2: Yeah. I was disappointed when I saw this news for you, TK. 1289 00:57:20,240 --> 00:57:21,840 Speaker 2: I was like, man, that's a great idea for a short. 1290 00:57:21,880 --> 00:57:24,640 Speaker 2: Scoot Anderson's played in four Rising Stars games? How is 1291 00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:27,240 Speaker 2: that possible? But then yeah, he's not gonna play. The 1292 00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:29,680 Speaker 2: Other thing with this and probably why it's not actually 1293 00:57:29,760 --> 00:57:32,840 Speaker 2: news is have you been able to keep track of 1294 00:57:32,880 --> 00:57:34,920 Speaker 2: who the hell's actually playing in the Rising Stars game 1295 00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:35,480 Speaker 2: on Friday. 1296 00:57:35,640 --> 00:57:36,120 Speaker 3: I know it's not. 1297 00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:39,000 Speaker 2: I think there's like this. I think Strather is our. 1298 00:57:39,200 --> 00:57:44,960 Speaker 2: I believe our sixth replacement, like you know, like I'm serious, 1299 00:57:44,960 --> 00:57:47,240 Speaker 2: they did like a whole initial four guys were in. 1300 00:57:47,320 --> 00:57:49,560 Speaker 2: I know that included like don and stuff, and then 1301 00:57:49,880 --> 00:57:53,160 Speaker 2: Pojemski was in. Uh, I forget even who he replaced. 1302 00:57:53,160 --> 00:57:55,880 Speaker 2: I think keyson Wallace he replaced. So now this like 1303 00:57:56,000 --> 00:57:58,440 Speaker 2: good luck keeping track of who the hell is playing 1304 00:57:58,440 --> 00:58:01,400 Speaker 2: in these games on Friday night. I guess we just 1305 00:58:01,400 --> 00:58:03,360 Speaker 2: just show up and see who's on the on the floor. 1306 00:58:03,560 --> 00:58:10,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, great, Strawther joins team m you know they're coaches, Mitrick. Yeah, 1307 00:58:10,440 --> 00:58:11,800 Speaker 1: you got it, buddy, good stuff. 1308 00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:18,440 Speaker 3: I thought, I like letters. I'm surprised you said that 1309 00:58:18,520 --> 00:58:22,520 Speaker 3: Scoot Henderson's previous teams or previous games that he's played 1310 00:58:22,560 --> 00:58:23,720 Speaker 3: on are on his pages? 1311 00:58:23,800 --> 00:58:26,919 Speaker 1: Are they they're not mentioned? 1312 00:58:29,920 --> 00:58:32,960 Speaker 2: I don't think so. Yeah, I was just I don't know, 1313 00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:34,160 Speaker 2: because everybody makes it. 1314 00:58:35,320 --> 00:58:38,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess, so six h six replacements players were 1315 00:58:38,560 --> 00:58:42,000 Speaker 1: already named. We got NBA players in the on the 1316 00:58:42,080 --> 00:58:46,080 Speaker 1: G League squad. Okay, it's not even on his Wikipedia page. 1317 00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:49,960 Speaker 1: I'm gonna physically go in and change it. The people's 1318 00:58:50,040 --> 00:58:53,080 Speaker 1: encyclopedia they need to know about Scoot Henderson. They'll have 1319 00:58:53,160 --> 00:58:55,720 Speaker 1: an Asterix pick up. Last night's pick them game, it 1320 00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:58,600 Speaker 1: was Grizzlies that Clippers, Skeets, Esh and I had l 1321 00:58:58,680 --> 00:59:00,680 Speaker 1: a minus four and a half points. They won by 1322 00:59:00,720 --> 00:59:03,280 Speaker 1: double digits to win for us and a loss for task. 1323 00:59:03,360 --> 00:59:05,800 Speaker 1: What do we got tonight, Taserony. 1324 00:59:05,320 --> 00:59:08,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm destined to lose. Put me in space now, 1325 00:59:08,960 --> 00:59:10,920 Speaker 3: or put a hat on me for my February pick 1326 00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:15,360 Speaker 3: them loss? Golden State at Houston tonight, back to backs 1327 00:59:15,520 --> 00:59:17,760 Speaker 3: for both squads. Houston is favored by six and a 1328 00:59:17,840 --> 00:59:20,760 Speaker 3: half at home against Golden State. Does it feel like 1329 00:59:20,800 --> 00:59:22,920 Speaker 3: a bit of a big line slightly? 1330 00:59:23,720 --> 00:59:25,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a little too big. 1331 00:59:25,680 --> 00:59:27,760 Speaker 3: Yeah. So a couple of us, myself and Trey are 1332 00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:30,880 Speaker 3: taking Houston to win by seven or more, while Skeets 1333 00:59:30,880 --> 00:59:34,280 Speaker 3: and Esh are taking those points, Yeah, by six or less. 1334 00:59:34,560 --> 00:59:35,760 Speaker 3: Why'd you take Golden State? 1335 00:59:35,840 --> 00:59:38,240 Speaker 2: I mean that's like both all these teams playing tonight 1336 00:59:38,280 --> 00:59:40,200 Speaker 2: are in a back to back situation. We can see 1337 00:59:40,240 --> 00:59:42,640 Speaker 2: some weird lineups tonight, I'm telling you. Yeah, Like with 1338 00:59:42,720 --> 00:59:45,080 Speaker 2: these ten teams that are playing coming off of last 1339 00:59:45,160 --> 00:59:47,360 Speaker 2: night before the All Star break. Add that to the 1340 00:59:47,400 --> 00:59:50,000 Speaker 2: element as well or to the Knicks. I just thought 1341 00:59:50,000 --> 00:59:51,760 Speaker 2: it was I think I feel like it could be close. 1342 00:59:52,160 --> 00:59:53,680 Speaker 2: So I'm just taking the points on this one. 1343 00:59:53,800 --> 00:59:56,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely hard to figure. Steve Kerr was complaining that 1344 00:59:56,560 --> 00:59:59,200 Speaker 1: they have to play this game, said Steph might not play, so. 1345 00:59:59,240 --> 01:00:00,560 Speaker 2: I almost I bet he does. 1346 01:00:00,760 --> 01:00:03,959 Speaker 1: Probably not. Yeah, they've been I mean they've they've already 1347 01:00:04,000 --> 01:00:06,560 Speaker 1: played three or four times with Jimmy Butler. This will 1348 01:00:06,560 --> 01:00:08,920 Speaker 1: maybe be their fourth game with Jimmy. Yeah, so they're 1349 01:00:08,960 --> 01:00:10,880 Speaker 1: jamming them in. But you're right, Skis, this is a 1350 01:00:10,920 --> 01:00:14,120 Speaker 1: weird time to watch the NBA, the last night before 1351 01:00:15,040 --> 01:00:18,880 Speaker 1: the All Star break, between like trade deadline and actually 1352 01:00:18,880 --> 01:00:22,360 Speaker 1: wanting to travel one two three can coon Like, I mean, 1353 01:00:22,400 --> 01:00:24,000 Speaker 1: you saw it last night. How many guys scored forty 1354 01:00:24,080 --> 01:00:26,720 Speaker 1: last Yeah, it's crazy. Weird times weird. 1355 01:00:26,920 --> 01:00:30,720 Speaker 3: It is weird times. I saw a headline yesterday, our 1356 01:00:30,800 --> 01:00:34,280 Speaker 3: man James Beard sent this to me on ESPN. It 1357 01:00:34,360 --> 01:00:37,880 Speaker 3: said Bucks Lillard out versus Wolves to be ready for 1358 01:00:37,960 --> 01:00:38,680 Speaker 3: All Star Games. 1359 01:00:38,680 --> 01:00:39,640 Speaker 1: And that was crazy. 1360 01:00:39,880 --> 01:00:42,760 Speaker 3: That was crazy. And then I clicked through because you 1361 01:00:42,840 --> 01:00:44,680 Speaker 3: got to do your research. So I clicked through to 1362 01:00:44,720 --> 01:00:48,080 Speaker 3: read it and it basically said, yeah, he's not playing, 1363 01:00:48,120 --> 01:00:50,680 Speaker 3: but he is expected to participate in the NBA All 1364 01:00:50,680 --> 01:00:53,360 Speaker 3: Star Weekend this weekend, defending his title as a two 1365 01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:55,760 Speaker 3: time winner of the three point Shootout. Got to do 1366 01:00:55,840 --> 01:00:57,959 Speaker 3: that and playing in his ninth career All Star Game 1367 01:01:00,120 --> 01:01:02,600 Speaker 3: is just a classic bracket rest That's what it is. 1368 01:01:02,880 --> 01:01:04,200 Speaker 3: It is priorities man. 1369 01:01:04,360 --> 01:01:07,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right, you bet you better play some defense. 1370 01:01:06,960 --> 01:01:10,440 Speaker 1: Then I want to be fresh for the defensive end. 1371 01:01:10,520 --> 01:01:12,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, great show guys, good stuff. 1372 01:01:12,720 --> 01:01:14,480 Speaker 1: Yeh yeah, has a lot of basketball talk there, no 1373 01:01:14,560 --> 01:01:18,280 Speaker 1: doubt sickos only Clipper bras.

And remember we used to fact 1376 01:01:23,840 --> 01:01:25,600 Speaker 3: check at the end of the shows. I was slightly 1377 01:01:25,640 --> 01:01:29,720 Speaker 3: wrong about key on Ellis stat because Lelis used to 1378 01:01:29,720 --> 01:01:32,200 Speaker 3: be our fact checker. But my key key on Ellis 1379 01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:35,280 Speaker 3: incorrect statement was that he did have a career high 1380 01:01:35,280 --> 01:01:37,360 Speaker 3: have thirty three, and I said he'd only got into 1381 01:01:37,680 --> 01:01:40,440 Speaker 3: the twenty points now once in his career. Now it 1382 01:01:40,480 --> 01:01:42,240 Speaker 3: is two times. He did it last year once, so 1383 01:01:42,480 --> 01:01:44,320 Speaker 3: he's had two twenty point games and a thirty three 1384 01:01:44,320 --> 01:01:46,680 Speaker 3: point game and you didn't care, but I did see 1385 01:01:46,720 --> 01:01:47,040 Speaker 3: you later. 1386 01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:48,000 Speaker 2: Prayse today.
