Speaker 1: Zion Williamson shuts down trade rumors, making it clear he

2
00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:10,640
Speaker 1: wants to stay in New Orleans. New Orleans is home

00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:13,200
Speaker 1: for me. I know people hear rumors, hear different things,

4
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:15,800
Speaker 1: but New Orleans is home for me. In the offseason,

5
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:17,680
Speaker 1: I stay in New Orleans and I just move around

6
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:20,279
Speaker 1: the city, just getting to learn more about the culture.

7
00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:22,280
Speaker 1: I've made a lot of friends here in New Orleans.

Speaker 1: I know I'm saying a lot. Is really home for me.

9
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:27,000
Speaker 1: I want to do what I can to help New

00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 1: Orleans win. If I can win the championship in New Orleans,

11
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,200
Speaker 1: if it looked like and look at the impact Drew

12
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:35,440
Speaker 1: Brees had winning a Super Bowl, You're forever, and who

13
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:38,479
Speaker 1: doesn't want to be forever. The most difficult point was

14
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 1: when I missed the third year, would have broken foot,

15
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:42,880
Speaker 1: and there are a lot of criticism about my weight,

16
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,279
Speaker 1: my care for the game, and I was really low

17
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:50,560
Speaker 1: because I just wanted to play basketball. Joe, Yeah, I mean,

18
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:52,560
Speaker 1: and we hear this a lot, Joe. We hear a

19
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 1: lot of guys. I want to be here. We heard

20
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 1: Kyrie say that he wanted to stay in Boston. We

21
00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:58,560
Speaker 1: hear Joannison. Did we hear rumors and did we hear

22
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 1: things everybody says, says the thing what they think the

23
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 1: fan base wants to hear at that particular time. Well,

24
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 1: that's that's what they're gonna do, Uncle Ocho, which I

25
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 1: wouldn't do. Come out and say, Man, I can't wait

26
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:11,840
Speaker 1: to get out here now. He's not gonna say that.

27
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,959
Speaker 1: He gonna he gonna always say the right things, you

28
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,319
Speaker 1: know what I mean. But I still love watching Zion play.

29
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:18,559
Speaker 2: Man.

30
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 1: I don't know how good the Pelicans can be. Obviously

31
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:24,679
Speaker 1: they're a young team. They got some young pieces who

32
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:26,680
Speaker 1: they depend on a lot on and I think they're

33
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 1: gonna really make some changes, just some of Whether Zion

34
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 1: is a part of that change, I'm not sure, but

35
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,319
Speaker 1: I definitely want to see him lead, uh, you know,

36
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: lead those guys in the right direction, man, Because man,

37
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 1: Uncle Ocho, when I watch him play, he can't be stopped. Bro,

38
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:46,760
Speaker 1: he cannot care who you put on him, whether they

39
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 1: three feet taller than him, two feet short, it don't matter.

40
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 2: They can't do nothing with him.

41
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 1: So long as he stays focused and continue just to

42
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 1: focus on the game, he's gonna be all right.

43
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 2: Man. Put all that other stuff to the side.

44
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 3: That's been the whole problem long. You know, once you

45
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 3: got to them, once you got to the NBA. Obviously

46
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 3: the focus, you know, focus is on the game, not

47
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 3: just the game itself, but obviously yourself within you know,

48
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 3: coming coming into camp the right way, you know, keeping

49
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,640
Speaker 3: your weight down, you know, focusing on basketball so you're

50
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 3: able to do what you need to do in season.

51
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 3: You put a camera in front of the space. Of

52
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 3: course you're gonna say all the right things. Of course

53
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:21,800
Speaker 3: you're gonna say, I want to be a New Orleans.

54
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 3: You're not gonna see anything outside of that because I mean,

55
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 3: obviously not you talk about wanting to win, uh in

56
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 3: in New Orleans, where you've had three years to do

57
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 3: that so far, you've had three years to do it.

58

60
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 3: able to do that. If anything, it starts with you,

61
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,239
Speaker 3: if you not being the one to be able to

62
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 3: lead by example. It's one thing you know to say

00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 3: to play football, But the work that I do when

312
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 3: it's not conditioning is strictly with a soccer ball. But

313
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:14,959
Speaker 3: that's why I asked you, At what point am I

314
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 3: gonna keep on weight? Because all that muscle I had

315
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 3: put on not a ship going away.

316
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:22,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're running.

317
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,040
Speaker 1: Like. That's why we like guys like okay, let's just say,

318
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,520
Speaker 1: like a bodybuilder, what you do is that you try

319
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 1: to put on weight and then you try to hopefully

320
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 1: it's quality weight. Sometimes people just put on fluff. Yeah,

321
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 1: but and then when you strip it down by doing cardio,

322
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 1: Now you're like, whooa look at that. But you look

323
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 1: at your shoulders. Look at your shoulders and see how

324
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 1: narrow your shoulders are. You're not gonna You're never gonna

325
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:47,920
Speaker 1: be a big man. You're never gonna be a guy

326
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 1: that's like man man, you see your man, old children

327
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 1: get that's not who you are no.

328
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 2: Hold on, look at you that.

329
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 1: I know, look at your shoulders, point to point. You

330
00:14:58,920 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: see how your shoulders off.

331
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:01,920

00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 1: Well, unfortunately that's not conducive for you wear a lot

333
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:10,640
Speaker 1: of weight with a shoulders.

00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 1: that you're gonna see.

352
00:15:57,080 --> 00:16:02,000
Speaker 2: P mac could run. Yeah, No, he's athletic. I know.

353
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,400

00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:13,480
Speaker 1: so Lord number one love Huh.

358
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 2: That's that's one thing.

359
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 3: That's one thing I can actually do better than play football.

360
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 2: And that that says a lot. I don't know about that,

361
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 2: but I know you like it. Yeah, Okay, we're gonna

362
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 2: see oh yo.

363
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,480
Speaker 1: Ant Man and the team would move into the fourth

364
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 1: in the Western Conference thanks to a one seventeen to

365
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,200
Speaker 1: one oh eight victory over the Nuggets. Minnesota beat Denver

366
00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:38,840
Speaker 1: for the first time in four games this season. Ant

367
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 1: Man had twenty one bones, Highland had fifteen of his

368
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 1: eighteen in the first half, and Minnesota sweeps is three

369
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,080
Speaker 1: game road trip to improve the thirty eight to twenty three,

370
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 1: jumping to fourth in the West. Minnesota now moved the

371
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:54,080
Speaker 1: game ahead of Denver in the Western Conference. There's just

372
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 1: two games separating the third seed, which is the Rockets,

373
00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:00,360
Speaker 1: and the sixth seed, which is the Lakers. They got

374
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 1: an outstanding performance in the fourth quarter from Naz Reid,

375
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:05,919
Speaker 1: who looked like Kobe Bryant. He did an in and

376
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,400
Speaker 1: out got an am one. He did out and end

377
00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:10,520
Speaker 1: and threw it up with a left hand. He got

378
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,160
Speaker 1: that in a big three, So he played unbelievable. They

379
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 1: got great contributions. A man didn't go off like he

380
00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:18,520
Speaker 1: had been in the last couple of games, but they

381
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 1: get with a total team effort. It was too much

382
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:25,320
Speaker 1: for the joke to overcome Joke and Murray, but they

383
00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:27,000
Speaker 1: got slopping with the ball late and the ball game.

384
00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:29,320
Speaker 1: Oh Joe, watching this game, what did you like about

385
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:30,280
Speaker 1: what Minnesota did?

386
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 3: I mean every nas reed. Obviously being able to insert

387
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 3: himself towards the end of the game. I think that

388
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 3: made the difference in it and Man not having the

389
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:41,000
Speaker 3: game that he's had the past previous games. Obviously he's

390
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 3: been he's been on fire, he's been hot. But he

391
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:44,879
Speaker 3: was efficient enough. I think he was nine to nineteen.

392
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 3: He had twenty one points, if I'm not mistaken.

393
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:50,280
Speaker 2: Outside of that, it looked they look good.

394
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:53,120
Speaker 3: They look good, And obviously the god damn Nuggets didn't

395
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:55,719
Speaker 3: help himself, turning the ball over and missing some opportunities

396
00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:58,800
Speaker 3: and chances to score and vital moments that could have

397
00:17:58,840 --> 00:17:59,880
Speaker 3: changed the outcome of the game.

398
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:02,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, they didn't really get the contribution they needed from

399
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:04,399
Speaker 1: Cam Johnson, and that I think he was an over.

400
00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:07,679
Speaker 1: Yok is gonna be Yoke. I think he's what thirty five,

401
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:12,479
Speaker 1: fourteen to nine. Jamal Murray came on strong late. I

402
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 1: agree with you the turnovers late definitely didn't help their cause.

403
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:17,480
Speaker 1: But they're gonna have to do a better job because

404
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:19,600
Speaker 1: they were terrible when Yoke was off the floor. Today

405
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:21,439
Speaker 1: they can't give up back kind and I think there

406
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:24,879
Speaker 1: were minus fifteen, minus sixteen or seventeen when Yolk was

407
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 1: on the floor, and he played a lot more minutes

408
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 1: than I'm sure Adaman wanted him to play in this

409
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,200
Speaker 1: ball game, and it seemed like every time he went out,

410
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,600
Speaker 1: which he only went out he played. What he does

411
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:37,359
Speaker 1: is that he normally plays the entire first quarter and

412
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 1: then they try to give him somewhere six to eight

413
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:45,359
Speaker 1: minutes in the second quarter, and then played the entire

414
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 1: third quarter, obviously the coming out of the half, and

415
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:49,160
Speaker 1: then try to give him a big break in the fourth.

416
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:51,120
Speaker 1: But they had to bring him back a lot sooner

417
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,440
Speaker 1: than they wanted to because the game started to slip away.

418
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:56,399
Speaker 1: But give the team Wolves a lot of credit because

419
00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:59,439
Speaker 1: every time the Nuggets made a run, they quelled it.

420
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:02,879
Speaker 1: Somebody hit a big three. Devin Tenzo played unbelievable day,

421
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,640
Speaker 1: especially in the first half with those four to three pointerers.

422
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 1: Nas Red picked it up. Nas Ree picked it up

423
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:10,159
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter, hit a big three in and

424
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 1: out out and end did some great jobs. They did

425
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,640
Speaker 1: a great job of rebounding the basketball. They just got

426
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:17,159
Speaker 1: to do a better job because I thought, you know,

427
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:19,320
Speaker 1: to start the game the way the Nuggets started up,

428
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,399
Speaker 1: IM like, damn, they might sweep this series.

429
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:21,679
Speaker 2: Yea.

430
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,400
Speaker 1: And the next thing, you know, here come the Nuggetsme man,

431
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 1: Devin Cenzo, all those guys making contributions, and they ended

432
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 1: up winning this game. But it's gonna be look, I think,

433
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:38,160
Speaker 1: for me, the class of the Western conferences. Ok see, Still,

434
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:40,920
Speaker 1: they got Shave back and he comes back. They played

435
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,080
Speaker 1: the Nuggets in his first game back, he drops I

436
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:45,639
Speaker 1: think thirty five and he didn't play in overtime. He

437
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:47,560
Speaker 1: didn't play late in the ball game because they didn't

438
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:50,119
Speaker 1: want him to over extend himself in the ball game.

439
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:53,199
Speaker 1: They want to gradually build him back up. And thankfully

440
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:54,880
Speaker 1: they didn't need him because I know that was really

441
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,560
Speaker 1: tough to watch a game of that magnitude and now

442
00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 1: they've already given you a minute restriction said we're not

443
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,320
Speaker 1: gonna play with this. I don't care what the circumstance

444
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:04,560
Speaker 1: called for, even though it was a close ball game,

445
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:06,240
Speaker 1: late in the ball game and they could have definitely

446
00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:09,640
Speaker 1: used him. They've guys with Crucio did a great job

447
00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 1: down to stretch. But looking at this ball game, Oh Joe,

448
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:13,760
Speaker 1: they're gonna have to find a way. This is why

449
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 1: they made they got rid of MP Michael Porter Junior

450
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 1: because they felt in situations like this and maybe he's

451
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:22,119
Speaker 1: he wasn't a good fit because you look at what

452
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:22,960
Speaker 1: he's doing with the nest.

453
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:24,200
Speaker 2: He's a guy that can.

454
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,480
Speaker 1: Legitimately be a one or two scorer, yes, but he

455
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:28,679
Speaker 1: was always he was never gonna be anything more than

456
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,040
Speaker 1: the third score here because you got yoke and you

457
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 1: got murried. So Cam Johnson is gonna have to be

458
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:36,760
Speaker 1: He's more equipped than that in his mindset, is more

459
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:39,400
Speaker 1: equipped to be a third option because pretty much that's

460
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:42,879
Speaker 1: what he's always been. And in that situation, I just

461
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 1: think he has to be better. He hadn't been good

462
00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:46,840
Speaker 1: in a couple of games he in order for them

463
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:48,880
Speaker 1: to get to where they need to be. He's gonna

464
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 1: have to be that third piece. Bruce Brown does what

465
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 1: Bruce Brown does. I like what Christen Brown h Brown does,

466
00:20:56,520 --> 00:21:00,880
Speaker 1: but wasn't enough today the Jim middles to credit Minnesota

467
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:01,920
Speaker 1: play the heck of a ball game.

468
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean Minnesota to play the heck of a

469
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,200
Speaker 3: ball game. But for me and I think about mentality,

470
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,480
Speaker 3: I think about confidence, especially who comes to any sport

471
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 3: right now the specific topic is is basketball, and for

472
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:14,520
Speaker 3: Cam Johnson, I think he needs to insert himself a

473
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:16,440
Speaker 3: little bit more. I understand that there's a pecking order

474
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 3: when it comes to shots selection and who has a

475
00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:20,600
Speaker 3: green light to take as many shots as they want to.

476
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,480
Speaker 3: But I think players like Cam Johnson in that role

477
00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,840
Speaker 3: of when Yoka is not doing well, when Murray's not

478
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:29,240
Speaker 3: doing well, I need to insert myself into the game.

479
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:30,040
Speaker 2: How do I do that?

480
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:32,919
Speaker 3: I already already need to be in rhythm. I need

481
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,600
Speaker 3: to have some type of some type of confidence about

482
00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:37,640
Speaker 3: my game where I don't feel scared or I don't

483
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 3: feel nervous or gunshot to take certain shots. And there's

484
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:42,440
Speaker 3: only one way to do that is being able to

485
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:45,200
Speaker 3: get yourself in rhythm and find ways to insert yourself

486
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:46,560
Speaker 3: into the game even when it.

487
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:47,680
Speaker 2: Doesn't call for you to do so.

488
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,800
Speaker 3: And I think if he's able to do that late

489
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,760
Speaker 3: in ball games, in situations like this, then he'll be

490
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 3: able to insert himself and feel okay about taking taking

491
00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 3: certain shots where it means much more as opposed to

492
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:02,479
Speaker 3: the first three cords in the game where it matters

493
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:04,199
Speaker 3: between wins and losses.

494
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,760
Speaker 1: Well, I think the biggest thing you mentioned confidence is

495
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:09,919
Speaker 1: that getting into a rhythm early, it's hard to miss

496
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,879
Speaker 1: all those shots and then because you know, shoot or shoot,

497
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:15,680
Speaker 1: but the confidence goes a long way. And because he

498
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 1: struggled the last couple of games, he was over the day,

499
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:24,480
Speaker 1: scored zero points. And I'm looking at yoke with fifteen

500
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 1: or twenty six, one or four from three, but he

501
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 1: was thirty five, thirteen and nine. You look at Jamal

502
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,480
Speaker 1: Murray twenty five and wasn't efficient at all. He was

503
00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:34,240
Speaker 1: nine of twenty two to two or six. Christian Brown

504
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:39,719
Speaker 1: was fifteen points. He played really well. Strawther gave him

505
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,200
Speaker 1: only two points. You got so you got two of

506
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 1: your starters. Oh Joe gave you two points, two points

507
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 1: And they played a combined forty minutes.

508
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:51,720
Speaker 2: You can't have that. Valent Choona's two points. Hardaway Junior played.

509
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 1: Well, he was five or six, three or four from

510
00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:56,919
Speaker 1: the three, Bruce Brown six points in thirty four minutes.

511
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:01,440
Speaker 2: But they just gotta fight. They gotta fight.

512
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:04,879
Speaker 1: They gotta fight a third option because you know exactly

513
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 1: what you're gonna get from yoke and sometimes Peep just

514
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:09,119
Speaker 1: gonna afica.

515
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 2: See, look, we can't stop this man. Yo.

516
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:13,440
Speaker 1: If he's gonna get somewhere between thirty and forty, he's

517
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:17,000
Speaker 1: gonna get somewhere between ten, twelve and seventeen rebounds, and

518
00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:19,840
Speaker 1: he's gonna get somewhere between eight and twelve assists. We

519
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,920
Speaker 1: just can't let him get forty twenty twenty. That's what

520
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 1: we gotta stop. So we're not gonna stop him from

521
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:28,359
Speaker 1: getting those you know, twenty eight twenty nine thirty points.

522
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 1: He's gonna get that, he's gonna get three rebounds. We've

523
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:35,640
Speaker 1: just got to control him getting those fifteen eighteen twenty

524
00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:38,520
Speaker 1: assists because he's getting his points and he's getting other

525
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 1: people involved. Once he starts getting other people involved, now

526
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,320
Speaker 1: what do we do because we can't leave anybody. There

527
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:45,959
Speaker 1: is nobody that's gonna be able to deal with him

528
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:47,919
Speaker 1: one on one, So you try to make it as

529
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,479
Speaker 1: difficult as you possibly can, and maybe you let him

530
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 1: go one on one and says, look, i'd rather give

531
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 1: him what The Clippers tried that, and then he ends

532
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:59,240
Speaker 1: up getting fifty six and thirteen and seventeen. But I

533
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:01,640
Speaker 1: can't let him get fifteen assents, oh, Joe. I can't

534
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:04,760
Speaker 1: let him get eighteen twenty assis because he's gonna have

535
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,160
Speaker 1: somewhere between twenty and thirty points. He might even get

536
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:10,120
Speaker 1: thirty five forty. So now he has forty and he's

537
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 1: contributed because of those fifteen to twenty as sis, you know,

538
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:17,119
Speaker 1: at least seven of them on three pointers. Yeah, so

539
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:18,920
Speaker 1: you can't have that, but they're gonna have to find

540
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:22,080
Speaker 1: a consistent third option. Cam Johnson's been in these moments before.

541
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,440
Speaker 1: He won a championship. If I'm not mistaken with the

542
00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 1: no he's on that team to end up losing to Milwaukee.

543
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,840
Speaker 1: But he's been in he's been in pressure situations before,

544
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 1: and he's just gonna have to come through because right

545
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:35,200
Speaker 1: now he's not playing well and I don't know what happened.

546
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:37,840
Speaker 1: I think he did have an injury. Oh, Joe, So

547
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:39,840
Speaker 1: I think he might be coming back from an injury.

548
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:42,479
Speaker 1: But that look, they don't do excuses in pro sports.

549
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:44,840
Speaker 1: Now you don't. Either you do or you don't, and

550
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:48,920
Speaker 1: right now he's not doing. Go ahead, what do you

551
00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 1: want to add? Oh, I forgot and drewe randalm jew

552
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 1: Randall played an unbelievable game. Now, he didn't have twenty

553
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 1: five thirty points, but I thought the fourteen ninety seven

554
00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:59,919
Speaker 1: that he did have came out at a very opportunity time.

555
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 1: They did a great job on the glass, but I

556
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 1: thought Jue, I thought all the auxiliary pieces, look, they're

557
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,880
Speaker 1: more and McDaniel played well, they're more than just ant

558
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:09,879
Speaker 1: man I know ant Manet gifts a lot of the

559
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 1: pub and rightfully so, because he's electric, he's a dynamic score.

560
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,720
Speaker 1: There's nothing he can't do. He can block a shot

561
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:18,840
Speaker 1: to save a game, he can hit a clutch three

562
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,639
Speaker 1: to win the game. He can play outstanding defense when

563
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 1: he wants to sit in the chair and guard. But

564
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:25,440
Speaker 1: he's a consistent player and we know what he is.

565
00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:28,880
Speaker 1: He's a superstar. But when you get contribution from Randal,

566
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:31,680
Speaker 1: you McDaniel and devincemzo and all those guys starting to

567
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:33,840
Speaker 1: jump in now, it makes them difficult.

568
00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:35,800
Speaker 2: You know. Rudy Gobert was Rudy Gobert.

569
00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:38,920
Speaker 1: He gave you six, eight points, fifteen rebounds, and so

570
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:41,360
Speaker 1: that's what he's going to do. But I thought overall,

571
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:44,840
Speaker 1: I thought that I thought Minnesota going on the road

572
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:48,240
Speaker 1: the end of this road trip, Yeah, going to Denver,

573
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:50,080
Speaker 1: and that's a very that's not an easy place. And

574
00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:52,280
Speaker 1: then plus they had been the Nuggets had been playing well,

575
00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:53,959
Speaker 1: even though they lost a tough game the other night

576
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,359
Speaker 1: to Okay. See, but when you deal it, when you

577
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:58,400
Speaker 1: dealing with yok and Murray, and we know what those

578
00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:00,720
Speaker 1: two guys represent. They're a good as that we have

579
00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:02,680
Speaker 1: in this league. They can put you in the pick

580
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,359
Speaker 1: and roll. Obviously, Yo can hit the three, he can roll,

581
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,000
Speaker 1: he can hit the mid range. Jamal Murray's insation you

582
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 1: seeing poke on Rudy Gobert, So he's sensational. He could

583
00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:14,639
Speaker 1: hit the three, he can in and out you. So

584
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 1: but I was I was surprised how well Minnesota withstood

585
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:21,360
Speaker 1: everything that they had going on special in the first

586
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,359
Speaker 1: quarter to withstand that, because I'm looking at it and

587
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:26,320
Speaker 1: they had like a twelve point lead, and then they

588
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:28,119
Speaker 1: cut it down to like five and a half and

589
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 1: they thing, I know, the t Wolves up seven.

590
00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:34,800
Speaker 2: I'm like, well, damn, that was quick. It didn't take

591
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:35,639
Speaker 2: a whole lot of effort.

592
00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:40,200
Speaker 1: But we'll see how this thing play out. I think

593
00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:42,040
Speaker 1: they got about twenty games left O Joe.

594
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:44,280
Speaker 2: In the season.

595
00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 1: And when you got the kind of closeness between three

596
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:50,880
Speaker 1: and six, obviously you want to stay in the sixth

597
00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:52,840
Speaker 1: spot because you don't want to go into the play

598
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:55,840
Speaker 1: in so you want to try to maintain where you are.

599
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:58,280
Speaker 1: You because right now the Lakers are in the sixth spot,

600
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:00,760
Speaker 1: and so you got the seven eight, seven, eight, nine,

601
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,640
Speaker 1: ten are in the play in tournament. You don't want

602
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 1: to get into the play in tournament. You don't want

603
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:08,120
Speaker 1: to play. You want to play as few games as possible,

604
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:14,159
Speaker 1: and playing those you know obviously what it's seven, seven

605
00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:18,240
Speaker 1: plays ten, eight plays nine. So obviously if seven wins,

606
00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:22,520
Speaker 1: they're in. Yeah, whoever wins the seven ten matchup is in.

607
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:27,520
Speaker 1: And then situation like that, and then the losers play

608
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 1: each other for the chest to be out footish up

609
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:32,560
Speaker 1: to eight seed. So you got OKC, that's forty seven

610
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:36,120
Speaker 1: and fifteen. You got the Spurs or forty three and seventeen.

611
00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:38,800
Speaker 1: They lost, got blown out today. The Rockets are thirty

612
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 1: seven and twenty two. The Nuggets are thirty eight and

613
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,800
Speaker 1: twenty three. Excuse me, no. The timber Wolves are thirty

614
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,240
Speaker 1: eight and twenty three. The Nuggets are thirty seven and

615
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 1: twenty four, The Lakers are thirty five and twenty four.

616
00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:52,680
Speaker 1: Phoenix is thirty four and twenty six. Golden State's in

617
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 1: the eighth spot, and it's reported that Steph Curry is

618
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:59,000
Speaker 1: going to be out another at least at least five games,

619
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,880
Speaker 1: and I don't know where they get offense without Steph Curry.

620
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:02,520
Speaker 2: Curry yuh.

621
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:05,240
Speaker 1: Portland was in the ninth spot at twenty nine and

622
00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:10,880
Speaker 1: thirty three, and the Clippers fading obviously. You know they're

623
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,520
Speaker 1: not going anywhere. Kawhi looted as much. He said, I

624
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,760
Speaker 1: think this season is already over. They're twenty seven and

625
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:20,359
Speaker 1: thirty one. So that's where that's where they are right now.

626
00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:21,880
Speaker 1: That's the rankings.

627
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 3: I mean, go ahead right right now with the rankers

628
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:27,960
Speaker 3: where they are right now, where we are in basketball

629
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,639
Speaker 3: season with twenty games left, I mean, based on your

630
00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:32,520
Speaker 3: expertise and watching the game and your knowledge of.

631
00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:33,280
Speaker 2: The game over time.

632
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 3: If you were to take your picks now for coming

633
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:38,840
Speaker 3: out the East and coming out the West playing in

634
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:41,080
Speaker 3: the finals, who would you have to this point right now,

635
00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 3: unless some team just comes out of nowhere and does

636
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 3: some extraordinary you know, the last twenty games and shocks everybody.

637
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:52,600
Speaker 1: I think okay s would really love somebody to knock

638
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 1: off San Antonio because they.

639
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:55,880
Speaker 2: Have to deal so they don't have to deal with that.

640
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:58,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, they don't have to deal with Winby and those guys.

641
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,160
Speaker 1: That's the team that calls okay See the most problem.

642
00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 1: Me personally, I think it's probably gonna be San Antonio

643
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:09,160
Speaker 1: in okay See in the Western Conference finals.

644
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:11,840
Speaker 2: But you never know because ant Man. Ant Man has

645
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:12,720
Speaker 2: been there and done.

646
00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 1: That before, so he knows he knows how to rise

647
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 1: to the occasion. Nuggets have won a championship before. I

648
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 1: just think the Rockets, I'm surprised the Rockets did not

649
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:25,640
Speaker 1: get a point guard. Chris Paul was there, and maybe

650
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:27,160
Speaker 1: they don't want to didn't want to deal with Chris

651
00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 1: Paul And I don't know what that issue is, but

652
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:31,520
Speaker 1: they need a point guard and they don't have a

653
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:34,240
Speaker 1: point guard. And I think that's the biggest thing, that's

654
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:37,640
Speaker 1: the biggest hindrance to them. Phoenix, Okay book is out,

655
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:40,760
Speaker 1: Dylan Brooks has a broken hand. How soon can those

656
00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:43,720
Speaker 1: guys get back? Do I think even with those guys back,

657
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:44,800
Speaker 1: they can contend.

658
00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 2: In the West.

659
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 1: I do not. I do not think they have enough

660
00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:50,719
Speaker 1: firepower to contend. The Lakers don't play good enough defense

661
00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 1: to contend. We saw last night Austin Reeves get blown

662
00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:56,600
Speaker 1: by Aydon.

663
00:29:57,560 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 2: I just I don't know. I just don't know about him.

664
00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 1: I just don't know, really, all things being equal to

665
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 1: I mean, look, I think there's fourteen, seriously that could

666
00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:10,080
Speaker 1: end up in the Western Conference Final. That's Denver, Minnesota,

667
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 1: San Antonio in ok See, those are my teams that

668
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:15,600
Speaker 1: I think can make it to the Western Conference Final

669
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:26,360
Speaker 1: with Realistically, realistically, you you make me put some money

670
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,440
Speaker 1: into something that matters to me, and if it's my money,

671
00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:28,960
Speaker 1: it matters.

672
00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:33,880
Speaker 2: I probably probably picked OKC. I probably pick the double

673
00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:44,320
Speaker 2: back again and win a championship. Yeah, yep. Johanna's after

674
00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:45,720
Speaker 2: the Coupo returned.

675
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:48,240
Speaker 1: Tonight and the one whole eight eighty one blowout loss

676
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 1: to the Celtics, and the Celtics did this without JB

677
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 1: who's an MVP Canada.

678
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,040
Speaker 2: In his first game in more than five.

679
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 1: Weeks after straining that right cap, Gianni's had nineteen points

680
00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:00,360
Speaker 1: eleven rebounds to assist in the defeat. I think he's

681
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:03,320
Speaker 1: played about twenty seven minute he set out the past

682
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:06,800
Speaker 1: fifteen games. After injuring himself on January the twenty third,

683
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 1: Doc said in pregame that he would return on a

684
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:09,840
Speaker 1: minutes restriction.

685
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:12,640
Speaker 2: He ended up playing off twenty five minute. Excuse me,

686
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:13,480
Speaker 2: not twenty.

687
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:18,520
Speaker 1: Seventh, Joe? You see where the Bucks are? The Bucks are?

688
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 1: They way back? Therefore, Charlotte's in the ten spot. In

689
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 1: their four games back of Charlotte, Detroit's won, Boston's two,

690
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:30,280
Speaker 1: the Knicks of three, calves of four, Toronto's five seventy

691
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:33,600
Speaker 1: six is or sixth, Orlando seventh, eighth is Miami?

692
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 2: Excuse me?

693
00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:38,480
Speaker 1: Atlanta Hawks are ninth and the Charlotte Hornets are ten.

694
00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:43,080
Speaker 1: Milwaukee's way back. How did considering that he's been out

695
00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:46,280
Speaker 1: five weeks, he's missed fifteen games, how did you think

696
00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 1: Jannis looked in his return. Any time you take that

697
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:52,880
Speaker 1: much time off, Ojo, you're gonna be a little rusty.

698
00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:55,160
Speaker 1: I mean, that's just what it is, you can tell.

699
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:59,880
Speaker 1: But I thought Boston just you know, without JB. Man,

700
00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:03,600
Speaker 1: it's such a well or engine that just run plug

701
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:06,320
Speaker 1: and play guys. Different guys step up and make plays.

702
00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:08,680
Speaker 1: But I think it's gonna take some time for Janni's.

703
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:11,600
Speaker 1: They got a pretty good they got a pretty decent

704
00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:15,000
Speaker 1: roster can hold. Joe, I don't understand why the outside

705
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:17,640
Speaker 1: of the play in. I feel like that they're good

706
00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:19,720
Speaker 1: enough to at least be in the play in, So

707
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:22,280
Speaker 1: I expect Giannis to pick it up, you know, and

708
00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:24,760
Speaker 1: have a late surge to try to get them in

709
00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 1: the play in so they can make some noise in

710
00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:26,920
Speaker 1: the playoffs.

711
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:31,120
Speaker 2: But their first round exit, guys, first round eight, that's

712
00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:34,640
Speaker 2: how you feel, Joe, It ain't nothing, Yeah, oh Joe.

713
00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 1: They rely so much on Yannis putting up these guarded numbers,

714
00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:42,400
Speaker 1: bro and you know he's been out.

715
00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:43,280
Speaker 2: He's gonna be rusty.

716
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:45,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, he'll get back to form the way he's averaging

717
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:49,320
Speaker 1: thirty and putting up getting fifteen rebounds, But man, he's

718
00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:52,560
Speaker 1: gonna need some consistency from them guys around him. They

719
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:54,720
Speaker 1: gonna have to step up and make plays and play

720
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:56,479
Speaker 1: big in order for those guys even make a run

721
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 1: in the playoffs, So I guess we'll see what happens.

722
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:01,080
Speaker 2: This is when you know a.

723
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 1: Team is really really good and really really deep. You

724
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:06,360
Speaker 1: look at Okac the way they play without Shade. You

725
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:08,680
Speaker 1: look at the way Boston play when they without JB.

726
00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:11,560
Speaker 1: That's when you know. You see they don't play like,

727
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:13,960
Speaker 1: oh man, we JV's not in there. Oh we can't

728
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:16,600
Speaker 1: win this. Giannis is coming back, please they blew him

729
00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:19,280
Speaker 1: out by twenty seven. You look at ok See and

730
00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:21,320
Speaker 1: what they do when Shade is not in the lineup,

731
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:23,040
Speaker 1: or when J Dove is not in the lineup.

732
00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 2: It does not matter. We don't care who's in the lineup.

733
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:27,000
Speaker 2: All we care.

734
00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:29,320
Speaker 1: We don't care who's out of the lineup. We care

735
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 1: who's in the lineup, and it is our job. It's

736
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:34,720
Speaker 1: incumbent upon us to go out there and play rather

737
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,960
Speaker 1: Shade J Dobbs in the lineup, Whether JB or Quato's

738
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 1: in the line it does not matter. We're gonna play

739
00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:43,480
Speaker 1: our asses off. And you see it is very reflective

740
00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:45,640
Speaker 1: of that. When you look at Boston when they play,

741
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:48,080
Speaker 1: you like, ain't no way. They got no business beating

742
00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 1: Milwaukee by twenty seven with out of them BB Kennedy,

743
00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:54,560
Speaker 1: there's no way ok C should still be a top

744
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,480
Speaker 1: with a league without a league MVP, and he's probably

745
00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:01,560
Speaker 1: the front runner again for the MVP. But it just

746
00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:03,480
Speaker 1: goes to show you the depth in which they had

747
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:06,640
Speaker 1: and they have and how these guys take it, take

748
00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:12,080
Speaker 1: it serious, bad Boston and again Pritchett doing what Pretchet does,

749
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:16,040
Speaker 1: do it what Pritchet does. Yeah, twenty five and nine,

750
00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:19,040
Speaker 1: that's off the bench, twenty five on the bench, off

751
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:21,560
Speaker 1: the bench. So and you know, I was wondering why

752
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:24,080
Speaker 1: they didn't start him, but they probably wanted their spark

753
00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:27,160
Speaker 1: plug to come in just in case, you know, things

754
00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:30,719
Speaker 1: didn't start off right. So uh, I'm giving Joe Missoula,

755
00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:33,799
Speaker 1: the head coach for the Boston Celtics OTA, I'm giving him.

756
00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 2: A lot of credit.

757
00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 1: Although the players got to go out there and compete

758
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:40,000
Speaker 1: and playing between the lines. But man, he has a

759
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:42,719
Speaker 1: mean scheme bro for them to be successful night in

760
00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:45,239
Speaker 1: and night out. No matter who suits up, you know,

761
00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:46,759
Speaker 1: Boston's always going to be in it.

762
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:47,480
Speaker 2: Now.

763
00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:51,120
Speaker 1: Before the season started, a lot of people, even including myself,

764
00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 1: I didn't think they would be in the position that

765
00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:57,240
Speaker 1: they in right, Me too, me too, but he Holdjoe

766
00:34:57,320 --> 00:35:00,920
Speaker 1: Jason Tatum. Yeah, you trade for Zingers or for leaving

767
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:04,120
Speaker 1: free agency, you trade holiday And I'm supposed to think

768
00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:07,440
Speaker 1: with I Tatum, who's a perennial All the NBA selection,

769
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:10,840
Speaker 1: a perennial All Star. So without that and all that,

770
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,480
Speaker 1: what you gave with all you moved on because clearly

771
00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:15,879
Speaker 1: you thought you weren't gonna be in that position. That's

772
00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:19,319
Speaker 1: why you gave those guys up, right, or unless they

773
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 1: knew something that we didn't know, they knew that. But

774
00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:28,839
Speaker 1: I think Jaalen uh uh JB has showed everybody why

775
00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:33,359
Speaker 1: he was you know, Finals MVP O yo. He could

776
00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:36,320
Speaker 1: potentially win the MVP this year with the numbers that

777
00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:38,839
Speaker 1: he's putting up, with the success that they're having as

778
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:42,000
Speaker 1: a team. Man, Boston's gonna be a scary team in

779
00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:44,359
Speaker 1: the postseason. Fellas, not a lot of people gonna want

780
00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 1: to play them. Man, they playing great basketball.

781
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:49,120
Speaker 3: You know what, you think they would still be the same. Obviously,

782
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:51,520
Speaker 3: when when Jason Tatum does come back, does that throw

783
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:54,640
Speaker 3: the rhythm and in the camaraderie off a little bit?

784
00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:57,319
Speaker 1: You know, I think it'll kind of I think it'll

785
00:35:57,360 --> 00:36:01,600
Speaker 1: take some adjustin because you know, I think at some

786
00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:04,640
Speaker 1: point those guys will to some degree kind of deferre

787
00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:05,280
Speaker 1: to Tatum.

788
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:07,000
Speaker 2: Yep, you know what I mean.

789
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:09,880
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just it's a peking order and it

790
00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:12,239
Speaker 1: could throw everybody off the rhythm. So you never know

791
00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:14,319
Speaker 1: how that all pan out. Maybe he comes back, maybe

792
00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:14,719
Speaker 1: he don't.

793
00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:17,399
Speaker 2: Who knows. I'm leaving.

794
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:20,200
Speaker 1: I'm sitting down the last thing you I mean, the

795
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:22,759
Speaker 1: last thing you want to do, Joe, because sometimes you know,

796
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:24,680
Speaker 1: you got to protect an athlete.

797
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:26,719
Speaker 2: We want to play, That's what we do.

798
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:29,600
Speaker 1: We want We dream of this our entire lives, and

799
00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:32,000
Speaker 1: when we get this opportunity, we ain't try it because

800
00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:34,680
Speaker 1: once it's over, it's over. But the last thing you

801
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:36,800
Speaker 1: want to do is to go out there and re

802
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:41,520
Speaker 1: injure yourself because of why because you tried to prove

803
00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:43,400
Speaker 1: that I could come back from a serious injury in

804
00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:46,440
Speaker 1: six months, in eight months and nine months. For me,

805
00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:49,960
Speaker 1: the reward doesn't outraid the risk.

806
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:51,440
Speaker 2: That's just for me.

807
00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:54,200
Speaker 1: He might see it a whole different way. The Boston

808
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:57,800
Speaker 1: the Celtics organization might see it entirely different way. But

809
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:01,840
Speaker 1: for me to okay, we could win a championship. Okay,

810
00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:05,200
Speaker 1: you could, but what happens if you re injure that?

811
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:06,600
Speaker 3: Now what?

812
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:12,800
Speaker 1: And for me, JT got another decade in it. The

813
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:15,080
Speaker 1: last thing you want to do is have that type

814
00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:18,239
Speaker 1: of injury there. So me personally, I think and it's hard.

815
00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:20,440
Speaker 1: It's easy to say from the outside sitting the end

816
00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:22,920
Speaker 1: because we've all sut in that athlete's chair and we've

817
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,440
Speaker 1: all been deemed and we've all like, okay, we did

818
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:27,040
Speaker 1: the best thing. What the best thing for me is

819
00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:29,040
Speaker 1: to play because I already know I only got so

820
00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:32,240
Speaker 1: many there's only so many sixteen games on Joe seasons

821
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:35,200
Speaker 1: I got in me right, and it's hey, once you

822
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:37,839
Speaker 1: get the once you get the five, once you hit ten,

823
00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:40,040
Speaker 1: you closer to the end of the beginning, you ain't

824
00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:41,560
Speaker 1: about to have everybody in fact, they're gonna have a

825
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:43,960
Speaker 1: Tom Brady type career. Everybody fact they gonna play Aaron Rodgers.

826
00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:46,080
Speaker 1: They go gonna play twenty twenty one season. You're not

827
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:49,720
Speaker 1: be thankful three point three years. That's about the average

828
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:52,440
Speaker 1: of an NFL career. Most NFL players are done at

829
00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:55,480
Speaker 1: the age of twenty seven. Yeah, you lived till seventy five,

830
00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:58,320
Speaker 1: So what that means you got forty That means you

831
00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:00,000
Speaker 1: got forty eight years left for your life.

832
00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 2: We don't look at it like that, though. You don't.

833
00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:08,480
Speaker 1: You don't, you don't because so much of what you've

834
00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:10,239
Speaker 1: done your entire life has prepared you to do what

835
00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:13,560
Speaker 1: Joe play basketball, Joe do what play football? And so

836
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:15,920
Speaker 1: you're kind of tied to that, and you think you're

837
00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:17,839
Speaker 1: like a doctor lawyer. May I be doing this when

838
00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:21,520
Speaker 1: I'm sixty, No, you're not. You might be talking about

839
00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:23,479
Speaker 1: it when you sixty, but you damn sure ain't gonna

840
00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:24,080
Speaker 1: be playing.

841
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:25,239
Speaker 2: It right right right.

842
00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:27,480
Speaker 1: So you got to get And that's why I always

843
00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:31,400
Speaker 1: tell God's guys, maximize this. Make sure you never look back,

844
00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:33,040
Speaker 1: because the last thing you want to do is when

845
00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:35,640
Speaker 1: you form Joe, Man, if I had just prepared a

846
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:37,600
Speaker 1: Look how many times we heard, guys, man, if I'd

847
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:39,919
Speaker 1: just did thistle or ain't no telling what I could

848
00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:40,400
Speaker 1: have done.

849
00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:43,400
Speaker 2: And we all got homeboys, Man, Joe.

850
00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:45,879
Speaker 1: If I'd have just did like you, Joe went home

851
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:48,239
Speaker 1: and not try to do this, Oh Joy, this hung

852
00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:49,520
Speaker 1: on the street, hung on the corner.

853
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:52,320
Speaker 2: Oh Joy, tell oh Joe, tell him, I could have

854
00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:52,680
Speaker 2: been right.

855
00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:53,360
Speaker 1: You tell them.

856
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:57,759
Speaker 2: Right, absolutely. We all know them.

857
00:38:57,840 --> 00:38:57,880
Speaker 1: CA.

858
00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:01,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you don't you don't want to have that regret.

859
00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:04,879
Speaker 1: But Boston, Boston has surprised a lot of people, Joe,

860
00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:06,680
Speaker 1: because I was one like, well, they're not doing it,

861
00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:08,759
Speaker 1: and I was thinking that that's why they're selling off

862
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:11,479
Speaker 1: these pieces. I said, you're selling off these pieces because

863
00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:13,879
Speaker 1: they know they ain't got no chance. So why why

864
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:16,440
Speaker 1: going to that second apron? Why have to pay one

865
00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:18,759
Speaker 1: hundred million, two one hundred and fifty million dollars with

866
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:23,399
Speaker 1: no chance? JB said, what a damn minute, I'm still here. Yeah,

867
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:27,319
Speaker 1: I'm the finals MVP, our Eastern Conference MVP. What you mean,

868
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:28,520
Speaker 1: we ain't got no chance.

869
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:32,560
Speaker 3: And the funny thing about it too, Joe, if you

870
00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:35,759
Speaker 3: think about it, maybe they did see this coming.

871
00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:38,040
Speaker 2: Maybe they did see it coming.

872
00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:39,520
Speaker 3: Which is why they let those pieces go, because they

873
00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:43,080
Speaker 3: understood even though Tatum is hurt, we believe there's a

874
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:44,600
Speaker 3: good chance, depending.

875
00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:47,440
Speaker 2: On who you ask, that JB might be our best player.

876
00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:49,920
Speaker 3: Even though there may be a pecking order, even though

877
00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:52,040
Speaker 3: the people on the outside are those that are part

878
00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:55,560
Speaker 3: of the NBA culture might see it differently. At Jason Tatum,

879
00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:58,600
Speaker 3: you know, being the best player, but hell, JB. I

880
00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:01,360
Speaker 3: mean maybe inside the door they said like, well, hell.

881
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:04,319
Speaker 2: Jab didn't showed us enough. We can let these.

882
00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:06,640
Speaker 3: Pieces go and know that we're still gonna be in contention.

883
00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:09,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree with Joe.

884
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:12,720
Speaker 1: Depending on who you ask, Yeah, definitely you You definitely

885
00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:16,000
Speaker 1: have a pretty good argument. But you know, I think

886
00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:19,160
Speaker 1: I think the Celtics went younger fellas. I think they

887
00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:21,920
Speaker 1: gave up a lot of those older guys and Holiday

888
00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:25,800
Speaker 1: and Horford and Porzingers, and they had development of a

889
00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:27,759
Speaker 1: lot of young cats who've stepped in this year and

890
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:31,239
Speaker 1: has played great throughout this whole entire season. So I

891
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:33,719
Speaker 1: commend them. Man's it's fun to see those guys go

892
00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:35,440
Speaker 1: out night in the night out and compete at the

893
00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:38,719
Speaker 1: highest level. And JB taking the challenge every night. I

894
00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:40,920
Speaker 1: know he didn't play to night, but he's been playing awesome.

895
00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:46,120
Speaker 2: I think the thing of Pazingers Prazinger stays hurt. Yeah, yeah,

896
00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:46,399
Speaker 2: I think.

897
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:48,480
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm paying twenty five to twenty seven million

898
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:51,320
Speaker 1: dollars for what Joe to get ten fifteen games a

899
00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:53,800
Speaker 1: year and he comes back he missed twenty games, he

900
00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:55,840
Speaker 1: comes back for five, he missed another fifteen.

901
00:40:56,200 --> 00:40:57,399
Speaker 2: Okay, well he's gonna miss.

902
00:40:57,520 --> 00:40:59,480
Speaker 1: He's gonna miss the first round of playoffs hopefully, and

903
00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:01,239
Speaker 1: then we get him two games in the second round

904
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:03,120
Speaker 1: and then we don't see him again to the finals,

905
00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:06,160
Speaker 1: and that that's it's not worth it. And as you said,

906
00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:08,320
Speaker 1: Holiday was getting on up there in age, al Horford

907
00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:10,239
Speaker 1: is on up there in age. Hell, Al Horford got

908
00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:12,880
Speaker 1: to be damn near faulty. Yeah, Horford came out what

909
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:14,920
Speaker 1: two thousand and six, two thousand and seven, because I

910
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,160
Speaker 1: think won back to back titles in what five and six?

911
00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:19,920
Speaker 1: I think I think Al Horfard's got to be like

912
00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:22,080
Speaker 1: Twitter Joe, he played with you Hill, Yeah, he played

913
00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:25,040
Speaker 1: with me. Yeah, I got at least be forty. I

914
00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:27,040
Speaker 1: think I'm probably four or five years older than him,

915
00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:28,399
Speaker 1: so I think, yeah, I think he got at least

916
00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:31,520
Speaker 1: be forty. But uh, yeah, man, they've they've done a

917
00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:34,000
Speaker 1: great job. And it takes some of that salary down too,

918
00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:36,680
Speaker 1: because you know, those guys making big money, these young

919
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:39,200
Speaker 1: cats they got, these guys ain't making the type of

920
00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:42,360
Speaker 1: money they're Holiday and Al and Porzinger's was making. But

921
00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:46,560
Speaker 1: to your point, uh, you know, Porzinger since the finals run,

922
00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:48,120
Speaker 1: since the year they won it, you know, he came

923
00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:50,719
Speaker 1: in and played in that finals run. Every since then

924
00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:53,360
Speaker 1: he hadn't been the same. He came here to Atlanta

925
00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:56,080
Speaker 1: and uh, I think he has like some type of

926
00:41:57,400 --> 00:41:59,200
Speaker 1: I don't, I don't. I don't want to miss quarter,

927
00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:01,719
Speaker 1: but I think like some type of respiratory infection. They

928
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:04,520
Speaker 1: kind of has him sick a lot. So it's hard.

929
00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:05,279
Speaker 2: That's why we hadn't.

930
00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:07,440
Speaker 1: You hadn't seen him play none for the Hawks pretty

931
00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:10,279
Speaker 1: much this year, and he got traded to Gold and State.

932
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:12,120
Speaker 1: I'm sure he probably won't even play for them no more.

933
00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:15,879
Speaker 1: His career could potentially be old. You know what, guys,

934
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:17,799
Speaker 1: he really has never been the same since he told

935
00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:20,279
Speaker 1: at ACL. Because I was reading where they said a

936
00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 1: guy tearing his ACL. I don't know if they'd.

937
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,680
Speaker 2: Ever seen a guy that call actually tear his ACL.

938
00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:27,799
Speaker 1: So you're asking someone seven three and a half Joe,

939
00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:30,000
Speaker 1: and he I mean, look, he could, he could shoot

940
00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:33,000
Speaker 1: the ball. He was a great rem protector about a

941
00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:36,440
Speaker 1: weak side defender. And you know, for whatever reason, and

942
00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:38,560
Speaker 1: you know, when you start getting that tall, there's only

943
00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:40,759
Speaker 1: a handful of people. They might not be how many

944
00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:43,319
Speaker 1: seven footes you think there are eight billion people? They

945
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:45,320
Speaker 1: might not be one hundred of them in the world.

946
00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:50,040
Speaker 1: So and when you start having those injuries, I mean,

947
00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:52,799
Speaker 1: so what is our study? You know they got they

948
00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:56,359
Speaker 1: got studied. Okay, somebody this side the wait, this height

949
00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:59,839
Speaker 1: and this way, this is the recovery time. But when

950
00:42:59,880 --> 00:43:02,520
Speaker 1: you don't have someone to go off of, it ain't

951
00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:05,920
Speaker 1: very many seven footers that you can go study and

952
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:10,120
Speaker 1: says Okay, he towards acl or he towards an achilles,

953
00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:13,759
Speaker 1: or he had this, And the studies say, it's hard

954
00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:19,080
Speaker 1: to find those guys like that. But I think Boston

955
00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:21,799
Speaker 1: they looked at it like this Joe and no Joe.

956
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:24,080
Speaker 1: They said, hold on, why are we going to go

957
00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:27,319
Speaker 1: into luxury tax when there's not a chance for us?

958
00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:30,120
Speaker 1: Because I think if they thought they had a realistic chance,

959
00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:33,320
Speaker 1: I think, you know what, we probably could stomach stomach it.

960
00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:35,560
Speaker 1: But they did sell the team and probably the new

961
00:43:35,640 --> 00:43:37,399
Speaker 1: orders like, well, hell now, y'all not in the strap

962
00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:39,799
Speaker 1: us with that burden. Get those pieces up out of here.

963
00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:43,640
Speaker 1: We just spent six four billion, six a little over

964
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:45,759
Speaker 1: six billion dollars or whatever they spent, and then you

965
00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:48,000
Speaker 1: wanted to come in and take on another one hundred

966
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:50,400
Speaker 1: and fifty two hundred million dollars. Oh, and we got

967
00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:54,680
Speaker 1: two guys, that's make it three hundred yo. No, no, no, no,

968
00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:56,320
Speaker 1: y'all got to get up off some of them pieces,

969
00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:59,600
Speaker 1: and so that was a part of it. But considering

970
00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:02,359
Speaker 1: how well JB's played, all it does is that when

971
00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:06,000
Speaker 1: they come back, when when JT comes back in twenty six,

972
00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:08,120
Speaker 1: twenty seven, I think they moved to the front of

973
00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:10,520
Speaker 1: the line. No matter how the season's end for Detroit,

974
00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:14,600
Speaker 1: I think with JT and JB, with the way, with

975
00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:17,400
Speaker 1: the way coming off the bench is pretcher and you

976
00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:19,759
Speaker 1: got Derrick White, I think they're gonna be the I

977
00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:22,239
Speaker 1: think they would be the favorite, at least representing the

978
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:25,880
Speaker 1: Eastern Conference. Now if OKC wins, OKAC is gonna be

979
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:28,920
Speaker 1: the favorite again. But that's that's my thoughts on that

980
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:32,439
Speaker 1: the Rockets beat the Wizards one twenty three, Trey Young

981
00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:35,719
Speaker 1: earned his first dejection with the new teams before even

982
00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:39,040
Speaker 1: making his debut with the Wizards. Trey was ejected when

983
00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:41,320
Speaker 1: he walked on the court and complained to an official

984
00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:45,160
Speaker 1: during the confrontation with Tarry Easton and Dremiro Watkins.

985
00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:46,840
Speaker 2: Easton was ejected.

986
00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:49,640
Speaker 1: Young made a light of the incident on X saying,

987
00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:52,560
Speaker 1: don't expect me to get ejected too many more times DC,

988
00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:56,319
Speaker 1: But I'm definitely bringing that energy and competitiveness when I'm

989
00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:59,920
Speaker 1: back for my brothers. Trey would make his Wizard's debut

990
00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:05,000
Speaker 1: Thursday at home versus Utah. Damn Joe, how you I mean?

991
00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:08,200
Speaker 1: Like like they asked, smoking told Crag you got fired

992
00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:11,760
Speaker 1: of your day off? How you you got on street clothes?

993
00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:14,160
Speaker 1: How you get He checked it, man, he he hey,

994
00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:16,200
Speaker 1: I'm watching the game. He was taking up for one

995
00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:18,800
Speaker 1: of his teammates, Joe. He sent on the bench with

996
00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:22,600
Speaker 1: the Tarrens Easton kid. He don't pushed. He didn't push

997
00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:25,720
Speaker 1: one of the dudes for the Wizards, like deliberately, like twice,

998
00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:28,160
Speaker 1: and the referee didn't even call them and they just

999
00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:30,719
Speaker 1: kept playing. So Trey kind of pointed it out and

1000
00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:32,879
Speaker 1: he got on the riff about it, and they ended

1001
00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:33,680
Speaker 1: up kicking him out.

1002
00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:35,920
Speaker 2: But I feel him on that.

1003
00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:37,640
Speaker 1: Man, you got to step up for these young dudes

1004
00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:40,360
Speaker 1: because they ain't give him the Wizards no type of respect.

1005
00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:42,440
Speaker 1: The riffs I'm talking about sitting there looking at the

1006
00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:43,560
Speaker 1: man I'm talking about.

1007
00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:45,560
Speaker 2: Just literally just pushing bro two times.

1008
00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:48,279
Speaker 1: I'm talking about didn't call nothing, so Tray got on

1009
00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:49,600
Speaker 1: bro and they kicked him out the game.

1010
00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:50,480
Speaker 2: For that, I'm taking that.

1011
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:54,520
Speaker 1: It was the situation Joe before you go, Joe, whether

1012
00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:56,319
Speaker 1: the situation the guy because you see this a lot,

1013
00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:59,120
Speaker 1: Joe when somebody come sit the screen push the guy

1014
00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:01,399
Speaker 1: the way in a situation like that. Because I didn't

1015
00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:04,239
Speaker 1: have kid to see it, it was similar, but it

1016
00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:07,360
Speaker 1: was like he was standing right in like the Eastern

1017
00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:08,920
Speaker 1: kid was standing right in front of him as he

1018
00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:11,320
Speaker 1: was going toward the pick, and he just had he

1019
00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:13,520
Speaker 1: did his hands like this and just and just pushed

1020
00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:16,279
Speaker 1: him back like like two three. Feel to the point.

1021
00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:18,040
Speaker 1: If that was probably one of y'all, y'all would have

1022
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:19,400
Speaker 1: been fighting. That's what I'm trying to tell you.

1023
00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:21,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, like it was.

1024
00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:21,360
Speaker 3: It was.

1025
00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:24,080
Speaker 2: It was I'm like, come on, dog, what is the

1026
00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:25,920
Speaker 2: ref looking at? You got three refs out there? Bro,

1027
00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:27,120
Speaker 2: Nobody calls that. Come on.

1028
00:46:27,239 --> 00:46:31,279
Speaker 1: That's how fights start out. Yeah, yeah, Oh, you're not

1029
00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:38,520
Speaker 1: gonna say anything, right because look, the wrong person. You

1030
00:46:38,560 --> 00:46:40,839
Speaker 1: pushed the wrong person like that, His get back may

1031
00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:43,280
Speaker 1: not be right away, but he might catch you slipping

1032
00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:44,960
Speaker 1: under that goal and hit you in the back of

1033
00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:45,279
Speaker 1: the head.

1034
00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:47,400
Speaker 2: Won the mail bowl, want them chicken wing and.

1035
00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:51,279
Speaker 1: And make make your vision go burd Now now now

1036
00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:53,279
Speaker 1: you want to, now you want to Now you want

1037
00:46:53,320 --> 00:46:54,319
Speaker 1: to kick us all out the game.

1038
00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:56,440
Speaker 2: So you gotta get you gotta get a handle on

1039
00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:57,279
Speaker 2: that early bro.

1040
00:46:57,640 --> 00:47:00,279
Speaker 1: I just felt the referees done a horrible job and

1041
00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:03,800
Speaker 1: uh and refer the game tonight, especially for the Wizards.

1042
00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:05,360
Speaker 2: Man, I thought, I.

1043
00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:07,640
Speaker 1: Thought dude should have got I think I think Easton

1044
00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:09,719
Speaker 1: did get kicked out, but he should have like it

1045
00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:15,960
Speaker 1: should have took all that right. Yeah, but KD his

1046
00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:18,960
Speaker 1: past three games tonight KD was thirty points, seven rebounds,

1047
00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:22,880
Speaker 1: eight or fifteen. The last game, previous game thirty two points,

1048
00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:25,759
Speaker 1: eight assisted, five rebounds, and then that that game that

1049
00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:28,720
Speaker 1: he had, we had that forty piece, forty points, eighteen

1050
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:32,320
Speaker 1: eight rebounds on fourteen to twenty eight shooting. KD is

1051
00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:35,000
Speaker 1: I mean, KD looks to me he might be better

1052
00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:37,360
Speaker 1: after the Achilles than when he was before before.

1053
00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:40,440
Speaker 2: The k he had missed the b Oh.

1054
00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:42,640
Speaker 1: You see that little thing frame he got, he ain't

1055
00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:44,279
Speaker 1: caring a lot of weight on He got no weight

1056
00:47:44,360 --> 00:47:46,520
Speaker 1: on it. He ain't care a lot of weight on

1057
00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:48,680
Speaker 1: that frame, which I think it helps him. And you

1058
00:47:48,760 --> 00:47:51,239
Speaker 1: know he's a mobile guy. But man, he's been so

1059
00:47:51,400 --> 00:47:54,600
Speaker 1: efficient helping these young guys. He don't come out and

1060
00:47:54,880 --> 00:47:56,759
Speaker 1: take a whole lot of shots on the oh Jo,

1061
00:47:56,920 --> 00:47:59,479
Speaker 1: he kind of to some degree, he let these guys

1062
00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:01,600
Speaker 1: just play. He get his points when he needs to,

1063
00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:03,719
Speaker 1: but for the most point, O Joe, Man, he let

1064
00:48:03,800 --> 00:48:05,680
Speaker 1: these He let these young cats rock.

1065
00:48:05,719 --> 00:48:07,960
Speaker 3: And the funny thing about it, too, Uncle Joe, is

1066
00:48:08,080 --> 00:48:10,160
Speaker 3: he can do that. He could assert himself when he

1067
00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:12,680
Speaker 3: feels like it because he's so efficient wherever he's shooting

1068
00:48:12,719 --> 00:48:15,120
Speaker 3: from it's so goddamn difficult to defend them. I mean

1069
00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:17,400
Speaker 3: from the three mid range when he when he came,

1070
00:48:17,480 --> 00:48:18,840
Speaker 3: when he could put the ball on the floor, he

1071
00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:21,080
Speaker 3: could driple by people as well, but hell, he ain't

1072
00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:23,520
Speaker 3: got to do that because he's so efficient from everywhere

1073
00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:24,600
Speaker 3: else on the goddamn court.

1074
00:48:26,360 --> 00:48:28,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, and when he goes up to shoot, bro, you

1075
00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:31,640
Speaker 2: just have to hope he missed. Yeah, that's it. I

1076
00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:34,200
Speaker 2: contend that you're not you're not unless unless you win.

1077
00:48:34,480 --> 00:48:36,919
Speaker 2: That's about it. That's it. Yeah.

1078
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:40,000
Speaker 1: And when you when you when you look at KD

1079
00:48:41,080 --> 00:48:45,560
Speaker 1: and you look at this is why it's so easy

1080
00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:47,399
Speaker 1: for him to fit in any system because he doesn't

1081
00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:49,960
Speaker 1: have to have the ball. He's not a ball dominant player.

1082
00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:53,239
Speaker 1: So fifteen on fifteen shots he can give you thirty points.

1083
00:48:53,480 --> 00:48:56,200
Speaker 1: There's not a whole lot of guys the efficiency in

1084
00:48:56,280 --> 00:48:58,120
Speaker 1: which he plays with. There's not a whole lot of

1085
00:48:58,160 --> 00:49:00,920
Speaker 1: guys that's ever played in the escort the game. Now,

1086
00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:03,359
Speaker 1: BIG's are a different story because they play mainly around

1087
00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:06,480
Speaker 1: the wing rim. So you look at Elijah Wanting, Robin's

1088
00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:09,040
Speaker 1: son and Shack and guys like that, they're gonna shoot

1089
00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:11,239
Speaker 1: in the fifties and sixty percent. But Kevin and Rant

1090
00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:13,439
Speaker 1: is a mid range specialist. He can shoot the three.

1091
00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:16,759
Speaker 1: So for him to be consistently in the fifty percentile,

1092
00:49:17,280 --> 00:49:19,520
Speaker 1: that just yet lets you know just how great he

1093
00:49:19,880 --> 00:49:22,680
Speaker 1: is at his craft. Yeah, and they're not a whole

1094
00:49:22,719 --> 00:49:24,120
Speaker 1: lot of guys. So that's why it was such an

1095
00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:28,200
Speaker 1: easily transition, a seamless transition when he went to Golden State,

1096
00:49:28,360 --> 00:49:31,600
Speaker 1: because everything to do is predicated on ball movement. But

1097
00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:34,479
Speaker 1: now we got a guy if we really need a shot,

1098
00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:36,960
Speaker 1: we can double the KD down on the block and

1099
00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:38,759
Speaker 1: you can hit that turnaround and you ain't nothing you

1100
00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:41,399
Speaker 1: can do about it, Like Joe said, boy lord, please

1101
00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:43,080
Speaker 1: let the joke a miss this because I ain't.

1102
00:49:42,920 --> 00:49:46,160
Speaker 2: Gonn be able to do nothing with it. That's all.

1103
00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:48,239
Speaker 2: That's all you got, Joe. That's all you can do.

1104
00:49:48,520 --> 00:49:49,400
Speaker 2: That's all you can do.

1105
00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:52,279
Speaker 1: And with the attention that he draws, he draws so

1106
00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:55,160
Speaker 1: much attention that he's gonna find these other guys. They

1107
00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:57,919
Speaker 1: gonna make shots. Confidence goes through the roof. Now they're

1108
00:49:57,920 --> 00:50:00,919
Speaker 1: a tough team to be Sengoon. He plays the point

1109
00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:04,399
Speaker 1: center oo like you said, Like you said, Durant don't

1110
00:50:04,440 --> 00:50:05,880
Speaker 1: need the ball that much. He can go sit in

1111
00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:08,480
Speaker 1: the corner. And he know his man ain't helping that out. Man,

1112
00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:10,680
Speaker 1: y'all go ahead and play four on fold because I

1113
00:50:10,760 --> 00:50:12,200
Speaker 1: know my man ain't gonna leave me, you know what

1114
00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:14,279
Speaker 1: I mean. So y'all go ahead and have you fun

1115
00:50:14,719 --> 00:50:16,839
Speaker 1: and uh when it's time to step up and play big.

1116
00:50:16,920 --> 00:50:19,200
Speaker 1: I mean, he was eleven, leven and eleven from the

1117
00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:23,000
Speaker 1: line to night, so he was aggressive. He was aggressive, man,

1118
00:50:23,080 --> 00:50:25,400
Speaker 1: and these other dudes just plug and play. Bro. They

1119
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:28,600
Speaker 1: I like the Thompson kid. He defense played both ends

1120
00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:30,640
Speaker 1: of the court. When it comes to the playoffs, I'm

1121
00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:32,560
Speaker 1: not gonna I ain't gonna lie there. I'm a little

1122
00:50:32,560 --> 00:50:36,120
Speaker 1: skeptical because of the the youth that they have at

1123
00:50:36,160 --> 00:50:38,560
Speaker 1: the guard spot, that they got the depth. Yeah, and

1124
00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:40,920
Speaker 1: and and those guys are so young being in that

1125
00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:43,440
Speaker 1: being in that environment, in that atmosphere, not to say

1126
00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:45,960
Speaker 1: they can't get it done, but to have experience at

1127
00:50:45,960 --> 00:50:47,000
Speaker 1: that point guard position.

1128
00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:49,000
Speaker 2: Man, that goes a long way in the postseason.

1129
00:50:49,480 --> 00:50:52,400
Speaker 1: And you're telling it, help off anybody, but KD, right,

1130
00:50:52,600 --> 00:50:55,719
Speaker 1: the help can come from anywhere else other than his guy. Absolutely,

1131
00:50:55,760 --> 00:50:58,080
Speaker 1: So he's and he's a guy that he can. He

1132
00:50:58,120 --> 00:51:00,480
Speaker 1: can he can hurt you on the outside. So your

1133
00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:02,480
Speaker 1: guy's gonna have to come for his guy's gonna have

1134
00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:05,040
Speaker 1: to come from distance anyway. It ain't like he right

1135
00:51:05,080 --> 00:51:07,239
Speaker 1: around there, because you know sometimes you know, sometimes Joe

1136
00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:09,640
Speaker 1: the guy sneaking and then like Mike, like Mike did,

1137
00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:12,200
Speaker 1: Mike backtracked on car belong because he's trying to post

1138
00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:14,800
Speaker 1: up Dennis Robins. He followed horn and stake through and

1139
00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:17,760
Speaker 1: then guess what he peeled back around. Well, KD already

1140
00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:20,080
Speaker 1: don way out on downside. Now if you come way

1141
00:51:20,160 --> 00:51:26,560
Speaker 1: from that what KD is and get all steal Yeah, congratulations,

1142
00:51:27,600 --> 00:51:29,879
Speaker 1: But I tell you what they muss run and see

1143
00:51:29,880 --> 00:51:31,759
Speaker 1: you coming and swing that ball, and you left KD

1144
00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:33,440
Speaker 1: open for a wide open shot.

1145
00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:37,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, he ain't missing, He ain't missing.

1146
00:51:37,160 --> 00:51:39,880
Speaker 1: But you know he looks okay, oh Joe, even though

1147
00:51:39,920 --> 00:51:41,560
Speaker 1: he's a hell of a score, one of the greatest

1148
00:51:41,600 --> 00:51:44,359
Speaker 1: scores of all time. When he first catches the ball,

1149
00:51:44,840 --> 00:51:48,200
Speaker 1: he's looking the pass first before he goes into his bag.

1150
00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:50,400
Speaker 1: After it is he have to do, whether he has

1151
00:51:50,440 --> 00:51:52,680
Speaker 1: to go one on one ice or whatever. But for

1152
00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:54,839
Speaker 1: the most part, he's looking for these guys. Man, he's

1153
00:51:54,880 --> 00:51:56,640
Speaker 1: looking for the double to come so he can make

1154
00:51:56,680 --> 00:51:57,839
Speaker 1: these guys around him better.

1155
00:51:58,200 --> 00:51:59,359
Speaker 2: And I enjoy watching him.

1156
00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:02,759
Speaker 1: Play because he knows a lot of times, Joe, the

1157
00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:05,560
Speaker 1: double's coming and he's coming for him. So he says,

1158
00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:07,719
Speaker 1: you know what, let me swing this ball, because this

1159
00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:09,800
Speaker 1: shot right here. Yeah, I could take it and go

1160
00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:11,800
Speaker 1: over to but you know what, if I swing it,

1161
00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:14,040
Speaker 1: I might get a better chance to get a better shot.

1162
00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:16,319
Speaker 1: He's a good shot right here, because it ain't really

1163
00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:18,560
Speaker 1: no bad shot for him. When you seven foot taller,

1164
00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:20,600
Speaker 1: you got a damn there eight and a half foot wingspan,

1165
00:52:20,920 --> 00:52:22,960
Speaker 1: and you shooting the ball ten eleven feet up in

1166
00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:27,920
Speaker 1: the damn there. It ain't no bad shot. So he's like,

1167
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:30,360
Speaker 1: you know what, I won't take I'm gonna swing this

1168
00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:32,080
Speaker 1: ball because this is a good shot. This is an

1169
00:52:32,120 --> 00:52:34,000
Speaker 1: okay shot, but you know what, I can get a

1170
00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:36,560
Speaker 1: good shot, but you know what, this is even better shot.

1171
00:52:36,680 --> 00:52:38,399
Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, Let's swing it one more

1172
00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:41,600
Speaker 1: time and I'm gonna get a great shot. Absolutely, And

1173
00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:44,320
Speaker 1: so that's what he's constantly that's what he's constantly looking for.

1174
00:52:44,640 --> 00:52:47,880
Speaker 1: Kevin Durant plays. I mean, Kevin Durant can play another

1175
00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:51,200
Speaker 1: five years. Oh easy, easy, another five easy.

1176
00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:54,959
Speaker 3: Easy, Brosan, He's stay healthy. I mean, the only reason

1177
00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:56,719
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna say the only reason he can play

1178
00:52:56,760 --> 00:52:58,320
Speaker 3: five year because he's not ball dominant.

1179
00:52:58,480 --> 00:53:00,000
Speaker 2: He can play off the ball. So well.

1180
00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:05,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, really, I mean outside of he's had some camp injuries,

1181
00:53:05,560 --> 00:53:08,000
Speaker 1: but outside that achilles k he really hadn't had a

1182
00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:10,200
Speaker 1: whole lot of injuries. And so that was a blessing.

1183
00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:12,719
Speaker 1: That was a blessing in disguise. So he missed an

1184
00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:16,800
Speaker 1: entire season and then guess what he had that injury situation.

1185
00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:18,239
Speaker 1: I think they had to shut him down when he

1186
00:53:18,320 --> 00:53:22,439
Speaker 1: was in Phoenix. But yeah, he can play another five years,

1187
00:53:22,800 --> 00:53:25,840
Speaker 1: and I think he can, and I think he's determined, Fellas,

1188
00:53:25,920 --> 00:53:29,600
Speaker 1: He's determined to help get this Rockets team to the finals.

1189
00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:31,360
Speaker 2: Because you know, he.

1190
00:53:31,360 --> 00:53:34,160
Speaker 1: Could say what he want about the Warriors situation. Everybody

1191
00:53:34,239 --> 00:53:36,600
Speaker 1: talk about, oh well if you had to go to

1192
00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:38,480
Speaker 1: the Warriors to get a ring. He wants to win

1193
00:53:38,600 --> 00:53:42,160
Speaker 1: a ring without you know, being in that Warriors uniform.

1194
00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:44,640
Speaker 1: Coming to Houston. I'm sure he wants to catapult that

1195
00:53:44,719 --> 00:53:47,799
Speaker 1: team to a championship. So he's gonna do whatever he can. Man,

1196
00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:50,319
Speaker 1: he's a gym rat. He's always in the gym, loves

1197
00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:52,920
Speaker 1: playing the game of basketball, and it shows when he's

1198
00:53:52,960 --> 00:53:55,320
Speaker 1: out there on the court. That one ring that he

1199
00:53:55,400 --> 00:53:57,640
Speaker 1: gets outside of Golden State would be worth more than

1200
00:53:57,680 --> 00:53:59,399
Speaker 1: though both of those that he got in Golden State,

1201
00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:02,920
Speaker 1: especially if they get one in Houston some way somehow, Like,

1202
00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:06,000
Speaker 1: that'll be huge, Bro, that'll be huge because that's how people.

1203
00:54:06,239 --> 00:54:08,960
Speaker 1: People look at the ring that Lebron got in in

1204
00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:12,120
Speaker 1: uh in Cleveland more valuable than two that he got

1205
00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:14,840
Speaker 1: in Miami. Absolutely, they look at the rings that that

1206
00:54:15,040 --> 00:54:18,000
Speaker 1: Kobe got by himself more than the three that he

1207
00:54:18,120 --> 00:54:18,839
Speaker 1: got with Shaq.

1208
00:54:19,200 --> 00:54:19,439
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1209
00:54:19,920 --> 00:54:22,080
Speaker 1: So when you when you when you when you leave

1210
00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:24,640
Speaker 1: and you're not with that dominant player, you got to

1211
00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:25,440
Speaker 1: have a come to step.

1212
00:54:25,840 --> 00:54:29,239
Speaker 2: Still was an MVP step where say MVP. But y'all

1213
00:54:29,280 --> 00:54:31,719
Speaker 2: make you see, Like what did y'all see what KD did?

1214
00:54:32,200 --> 00:54:33,560
Speaker 2: KD average thirty five?

1215
00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:37,000
Speaker 1: Yeah he won't code telling Now he wasn't he was

1216
00:54:37,160 --> 00:54:40,160
Speaker 1: MVP like he like, if they didn't have him here,

1217
00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:44,160
Speaker 1: they wouldn't they have lost? Yeah, they had lost because Lebron.

1218
00:54:44,520 --> 00:54:47,480
Speaker 1: Lebron averaged thirty four to twelve and ten. They had

1219
00:54:47,600 --> 00:54:50,759
Speaker 1: nobody to offset back because they couldn't get those cause

1220
00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:54,000
Speaker 1: think about it. So now you got you got KD

1221
00:54:54,160 --> 00:54:56,000
Speaker 1: and Lebron, and that's what you hope when you go.

1222
00:54:56,239 --> 00:54:57,959
Speaker 1: You got some Okay, this is a push.

1223
00:54:58,040 --> 00:55:02,640
Speaker 2: This is a wash. Yeah, they and Kyrie that's a wash.

1224
00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:05,359
Speaker 1: Now we're about to play with your third and fourth

1225
00:55:05,440 --> 00:55:08,920
Speaker 1: best players, which is Klay Thompson j R.

1226
00:55:09,320 --> 00:55:10,400
Speaker 2: Or Or Kevin Love.

1227
00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:14,360
Speaker 1: Now we got Iggy, we got Sean Livesting that is

1228
00:55:14,440 --> 00:55:16,719
Speaker 1: our fourth and fifth best player. So we're gonna get

1229
00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:19,400
Speaker 1: away from the two on two. That's gonna be a wash.

1230
00:55:19,880 --> 00:55:25,880
Speaker 1: But from three down, where are you? That's how you

1231
00:55:26,080 --> 00:55:28,520
Speaker 1: that's how you do it because your best players, you hope. Okay,

1232
00:55:28,800 --> 00:55:31,200
Speaker 1: my best players are gonna watch if we play Yokics.

1233
00:55:31,200 --> 00:55:34,319
Speaker 1: Whoever played Yoki, your best player and him, they need

1234
00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:36,160
Speaker 1: to watch now, especially points.

1235
00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:38,480
Speaker 2: Now, you're probably gonna be able to match his points.

1236
00:55:38,640 --> 00:55:43,520
Speaker 1: Is assistant rebounds because he handles the ball so much,

1237
00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:47,400
Speaker 1: and he's gonna get you double digit rebounds. But you

1238
00:55:47,480 --> 00:55:50,319
Speaker 1: got I gotta neutralize that point production, Joe. I can't

1239
00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:52,800
Speaker 1: let him score thirty five and then I get I

1240
00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:53,800
Speaker 1: get fifteen to twenty.

1241
00:55:54,239 --> 00:55:57,919
Speaker 2: Well, he's talking about Yokics, Yes, yeah.

1242
00:55:58,360 --> 00:56:02,480
Speaker 1: The thing is with Yokis, do unc you you want

1243
00:56:02,520 --> 00:56:04,080
Speaker 1: to play him straight up because you don't want him

1244
00:56:04,080 --> 00:56:06,279
Speaker 1: to get them other guys involved, But playing them straight

1245
00:56:06,360 --> 00:56:07,000
Speaker 1: up here, he'll.

1246
00:56:06,880 --> 00:56:09,440
Speaker 2: Get you the Clippers by playing it straight up.

1247
00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:12,680
Speaker 1: He dropped fifty six, he dropped fifty six on they'll

1248
00:56:12,680 --> 00:56:14,640
Speaker 1: playing it straight up with Zubots.

1249
00:56:16,080 --> 00:56:16,279
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1250
00:56:16,719 --> 00:56:19,239
Speaker 1: So it's like pick your poison, man, what you want?

1251
00:56:19,320 --> 00:56:20,960
Speaker 1: I give you this triple double. I could give you

1252
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:22,760
Speaker 1: this fifty piece with no biscuits.

1253
00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:24,480
Speaker 2: Hey, uncle Joe.

1254
00:56:24,800 --> 00:56:27,080
Speaker 3: If yeah, depending on who you're playing, right, if you

1255
00:56:27,120 --> 00:56:30,120
Speaker 3: can't wash, if you can't match the point total with Yokur,

1256
00:56:30,440 --> 00:56:32,680
Speaker 3: then you just got to worry about everybody else. If

1257
00:56:32,719 --> 00:56:34,200
Speaker 3: you do give you fifty, you got to hold the

1258
00:56:34,239 --> 00:56:36,880
Speaker 3: other other foe accountable, not to get damn there anything

1259
00:56:36,920 --> 00:56:39,520
Speaker 3: they gonna score. Of course, you only hope to stop people,

1260
00:56:39,560 --> 00:56:41,279
Speaker 3: but you can only contain them. But you can't let

1261
00:56:41,360 --> 00:56:42,640
Speaker 3: him get that much. That's all you got to do.

1262
00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:44,000
Speaker 2: I mean it sound easy.

1263
00:56:44,280 --> 00:56:46,680
Speaker 1: Well you hope you're now if your two guys don't

1264
00:56:46,880 --> 00:56:49,680
Speaker 1: wash now, I'm hoping Murray, you see the night now,

1265
00:56:49,719 --> 00:56:51,440
Speaker 1: I don't know, let's see what ended up happened.

1266
00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:53,920
Speaker 2: But Murray had like forty three, yo, get you out

1267
00:56:53,920 --> 00:57:00,759
Speaker 2: a quiet night. Forty three. Yeah.

1268
00:57:02,239 --> 00:57:04,960
Speaker 1: So as a matter of fact, Murray got forty five

1269
00:57:05,440 --> 00:57:09,839
Speaker 1: thirteen or nineteen ear to thirteen from the three. You see,

1270
00:57:10,520 --> 00:57:14,719
Speaker 1: Yokic only took eleven shots. He got twenty points on

1271
00:57:14,840 --> 00:57:17,160
Speaker 1: twelve rebounds five or sis. So now what does that

1272
00:57:17,200 --> 00:57:19,960
Speaker 1: tell you? Now, Okay, my next big gun has to

1273
00:57:20,040 --> 00:57:23,960
Speaker 1: go off, and Jamal Murray goes off yesterday he was

1274
00:57:24,040 --> 00:57:26,080
Speaker 1: nine or twenty two from the floor. That really hurt

1275
00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:30,760
Speaker 1: him because now all of a sudden he's inefficient. Yokid

1276
00:57:30,800 --> 00:57:33,200
Speaker 1: did what Yogis was supposed to do. Yokid gave, you

1277
00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:37,320
Speaker 1: gave you thirty five, thirteen and nine. Now I need

1278
00:57:37,640 --> 00:57:41,000
Speaker 1: I really really need Murray to do his thaing. Yeah,

1279
00:57:41,040 --> 00:57:45,600
Speaker 1: they those two in the postseason will be will be

1280
00:57:45,680 --> 00:57:49,000
Speaker 1: tough to deal with. Obviously, they need Gordon to come back.

1281
00:57:49,160 --> 00:57:52,480
Speaker 1: You hope in the postseason Tim Hardaway can explode and

1282
00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:55,080
Speaker 1: obviously win you a game or two in the postseason,

1283
00:57:55,120 --> 00:57:58,080
Speaker 1: but you're gonna have to have these other guys step up, hey,

1284
00:57:58,160 --> 00:58:01,040
Speaker 1: old cho in order for uh, in order for Denver too.

1285
00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:06,040
Speaker 1: He's out, he's been playing. He was playing his ass

1286
00:58:06,080 --> 00:58:09,120
Speaker 1: off Joe before he got hurt. Yeah, he was hurt

1287
00:58:09,160 --> 00:58:11,560
Speaker 1: before he got What did he hurt? I think you

1288
00:58:11,640 --> 00:58:14,800
Speaker 1: hurd his uh what do you hear? Whether the hamstring

1289
00:58:14,960 --> 00:58:18,120
Speaker 1: or a neat That's that's the only thing. That's the

1290
00:58:18,200 --> 00:58:20,640
Speaker 1: thing about it. So you know, right now we're getting

1291
00:58:20,640 --> 00:58:23,680
Speaker 1: down the net cutting time because you know, you jock

1292
00:58:23,760 --> 00:58:26,840
Speaker 1: everybody trying to jock the position for the postseason, and

1293
00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:29,320
Speaker 1: and the guys that have banged up, nicked up, hurt

1294
00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:32,840
Speaker 1: man coming back reving that thing up, playing at this hot,

1295
00:58:33,240 --> 00:58:37,400
Speaker 1: high pace. You know, that's that's tough, man. That's tough

1296
00:58:37,480 --> 00:58:40,440
Speaker 1: to sustain. You know, if you got some nickknacks or

1297
00:58:40,480 --> 00:58:42,280
Speaker 1: you really hurt, you know what I mean. Like, So

1298
00:58:42,360 --> 00:58:46,080
Speaker 1: that's why I wonder how much can Gordon contribute in

1299
00:58:46,160 --> 00:58:48,280
Speaker 1: the postseason because we've seen him last year. If he

1300
00:58:48,320 --> 00:58:49,919
Speaker 1: would have been there with him to hold the whole

1301
00:58:50,000 --> 00:58:52,520
Speaker 1: duration last year, maybe they would have beat the thunder

1302
00:58:52,880 --> 00:58:55,400
Speaker 1: seeing game. Yeah, yeah, maybe they would have beat Okay. See,

1303
00:58:55,520 --> 00:58:58,000
Speaker 1: but I mean he's been out for a significant you

1304
00:58:58,040 --> 00:59:00,080
Speaker 1: know time this season, so you know, we're just have

1305
00:59:00,160 --> 00:59:00,440
Speaker 1: to see it.

1306
00:59:00,520 --> 00:59:07,080
Speaker 2: This was wrong with ag hamstring, hamstring, He's already he's

1307
00:59:07,160 --> 00:59:08,440
Speaker 2: had probably with ham string.

1308
00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:13,680
Speaker 1: You know them them things later with you try to

1309
00:59:13,680 --> 00:59:16,959
Speaker 1: throw that thing and how get you want to grab?

1310
00:59:17,640 --> 00:59:19,680
Speaker 2: Once they grab, it's a wrap and that's that's when.

1311
00:59:19,960 --> 00:59:23,200
Speaker 3: That's the worst feeling is once you come back from injury,

1312
00:59:23,600 --> 00:59:26,320
Speaker 3: especially anything soft tissue, and you try to exert that

1313
00:59:26,520 --> 00:59:28,320
Speaker 3: energy or you try to explodre real quick and you

1314
00:59:28,360 --> 00:59:29,280
Speaker 3: feel that little pinch.

1315
00:59:30,680 --> 00:59:32,439
Speaker 2: Yeah you can't.

1316
00:59:32,480 --> 00:59:35,960
Speaker 1: You can't do what you're accustomed to doing. Yeah, he

1317
00:59:36,160 --> 00:59:39,280
Speaker 1: wants a hamstring, Joe, he's ramping up. They say the

1318
00:59:39,360 --> 00:59:42,000
Speaker 1: next seven to ten days he should be back. Mm hmm,

1319
00:59:43,080 --> 00:59:46,919
Speaker 1: say hamstring for both he and Gordon. Yeah, it's gonna

1320
00:59:46,920 --> 00:59:48,160
Speaker 1: be it's gonna be tough for them, bro,
