Speaker 1: would love to have a beer with that guy, Big Yeah.

43
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 1: It look it was like, as someone said in the comments,

44
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 1: it was like no dungs had two leaves for a night.

45
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,639
Speaker 1: Some truth to that. And these guys shared all their

46
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: stories of traveling around the world. So that's up on

47
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 1: our YouTube channel. You can go back and watch or

48
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 1: listen to it. Graphic Mark Mark Shoal. He always comes

49
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 1: through with the time stamps for those He actually watches

50
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:40,799
Speaker 1: all of these super long happy hours, although Last Nights

51
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:42,639
Speaker 1: wasn't too bad. So if you want to, like look

52
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 1: in the comments, you can jump around to, oh, this

53
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:46,919
Speaker 1: is the part where Lee talks about wearing a do

54
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 1: rag in Barbados, and oh, this is the part where

55
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 1: you know a great story involving a guy named James.

56
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 1: And I'll just leave it at that.

57
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:59,639
Speaker 4: Oh James, Oh, I forgot about James Late Night James

58
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 4: getting him on next Man, I don't.

59
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:07,119
Speaker 1: I don't think we could have James little too extreme.

60
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 1: That was like, I don't know about that.

61
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 3: I think James and Trey would get along pretty pretty

62
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 3: well to get just give.

63
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:20,119
Speaker 4: Him a spinoff show and James he's got a nickname though.

64
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 4: We got Big Matt and we got Graphic Marks. So

65
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 4: I don't know what party James. He needs an adjective, maybe.

66
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 3: Maybe wondering James. Maybe that's it because he just just

67
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 3: unders around the world, all.

68
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 1: Right, Keep your questions in comments coming for the next

69
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 1: beach step in podcast. I actually don't know when we'll

70
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 1: be doing that because I just realized All Star Break,

71
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 1: you know, is coming up. It's basically here now. We

72
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 1: will be back on Sunday night for an NBA Happy

73
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,800
Speaker 1: Hour during the Dunk Contest, which is at halftime of

74
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 1: the All Star Game, and then we'll stick around for

75
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 1: the second half of the game. So that's something special

76
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 1: to look forward to, only on the No Dunk's YouTube channel. Well, actually,

00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:57,760

00:03:57,760 --> 00:03:59,800

00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 1: when we get there. When we cross that bridge, JD,

80
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,560

Speaker 1: and we've got, of course, tweeted the night. We've got

98
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 1: a masterclass what I learned this week, always informing you

99
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 1: guys what we're up to outside of basketball trays. Got

100
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 1: that this week. But let's start with the big news

101
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:02,160
Speaker 1: from last night. Lebron and CA drafting their superstar rosters

102
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 1: on TNT. We're gonna take a quick look at their squads.

103
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:08,040
Speaker 1: The King he took you honest first overall, and then

104
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:11,839
Speaker 1: proceeded to just stack his starting lineup, going with Steph,

105
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 1: Luca and the Joker. Not bad. His first reserve pick,

106
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,039
Speaker 1: Damian Lillard also pretty good. He picked up a little

107
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 1: defense along the way. You see the names at the bottom.

108
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,280
Speaker 1: I won't read the entire roster for everybody listening to

109
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,160
Speaker 1: the podcast. You guys are smart enough to go look

110
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:29,279
Speaker 1: at it yourselves. Kadi. Meanwhile, he loaded his team with

111
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,160
Speaker 1: his two Nets teammates Kyrie and James Harden, and he's

112
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 1: got dwell and b Bradley Beial and Jason Tatum as

113
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:38,799
Speaker 1: his other starters there. Along with Kyrie, his bench includes

114
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 1: a bunch of bucket getters, as he called it, Scott,

115
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 1: Devin Booker, Zach Lavine. He also snagged Zion Williamson pretty early,

116
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,799
Speaker 1: so a lot of fun. The first question, though, before

117
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 1: we get into the moments maybe the draft and some

118
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:52,839
Speaker 1: of the storylines coming out of it, who drafted the

119
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 1: better team? Trey? Is it obvious? It feels obvious to

120
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 1: a lot of people. But what do you think.

121
00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go with the team that is starting five

122
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 4: potential MVPs? So yeah, I'm going with Lebron on this one.

123
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 4: The man has two Hall of Famers coming off the

124
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,839
Speaker 4: bench in Damian Lillard and Chris Paul. Lebron has obviously

125
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 4: been one of the GMS for every single one of

126
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:15,719
Speaker 4: the All Star drafts, and you can tell that he

127
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,120
Speaker 4: has built an advantage. The guy knows the ins and

128
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 4: outs of the game. He's even talking about recruiting. He

129
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,159
Speaker 4: said he wasn't recruiting this year because there are no

130
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 4: free agents to be amongst the starters. But but there's

131
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,039
Speaker 4: an Anta Tacumpo on the Lakers, and now there's an

132
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 4: Anta Takumpo on Lebron's team, So I think my man

133
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 4: might be planting some seeds a bit early here. But yeah,

134
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 4: I mean, when you look at the starters for Lebron,

135
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 4: that could be the top five in MVP voting this season.

136
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,159
Speaker 4: I mean, Embiid obviously will be in the mix, but

137
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 4: the other four guys that are there, it's what Lebron Curry, Luka,

138
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 4: Jokic and Jannis. I feel like, you know, take any

139
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 4: one of those guys out, put any of the three

140
00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,560
Speaker 4: of us out there were able to score a basket,

141
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 4: even if it's in an All Star Game, because the

142
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,719
Speaker 4: passing is going to be ridiculous. They might have to

143
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,200
Speaker 4: use all twenty four seconds on every possession just to

144
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 4: show off their cool passes. Because as we all know,

145
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 4: Lebron's best skill is passing, so it's not a surprise

146
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 4: that he would have all these incredible passers on his team.

147
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 4: But yeah, you know, I don't know. I'm not gonna

148
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 4: literally break down the All Star Games. Come on, I'm

149
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,600
Speaker 4: not gonna do it to hiskeets, but Lebron's team has

150
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 4: five MVPs starting starting It's amazing.

151
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 1: Yeah. Look, and we're not helped out here by no

152
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 1: Kevin Durant in the actual game because he's not going

153
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 1: to be playing, despite obviously drafting his team. So you're

154
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 1: immediately like, whoa. You look at the two rosters, the

155
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 1: two starting fives, You're like, oh, that's not fair. That's

156
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: pretty lopsided. But yep, Lebron's got experience with this, Leeley,

157
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 1: he had a planned, he talked about it, he executed it.

158
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:50,320
Speaker 1: Durant I think has the edge in total points and

159
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 1: three point shooting when it comes to the rosters, but

160
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 1: Lebron's basically got the edge basically in every other statistical category.

161
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:00,400
Speaker 1: So Lee, do you also agree with Trey and about

162
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 1: ninety nine percent of the internet that Lebron on peeper

163
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 1: at least has the better All Star team, maybe the

164
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:06,640
Speaker 1: best we've ever seen him from here?

165
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, the All Star Game is about offense.

166
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 3: We know that they don't play a lot of defense,

167
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 3: but just look at that defensive roster as well that

168
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 3: Lebron has starting with Yamas Defensive Player of the Year. Lebron,

169
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,000
Speaker 3: you know, if he chooses to, then you've got Jalen Brown, Paul,

170
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 3: George go Bear's probably going to win Defensive Player of

171
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 3: the Year. Ben Simmons could be Defensive Player of the Year.

172
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,320
Speaker 3: Chris Paul can be a great defender as well. So

173
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,000
Speaker 3: as far as you know, again.

174
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 1: No one's got options. Is that what you're saying.

175
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:33,680
Speaker 3: Well, I'm just saying no one's going out that, you know,

176
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:35,840
Speaker 3: like clamp down, lock these guys up. But if it

177
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 3: gets close, they've just got a roster there of you know,

178
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 3: eight to ten of those guys are incredible defenders as well,

179
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 3: So I just think they have the edge in both

180
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,319
Speaker 3: categories in that respect. But it's an All Star game.

181
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:49,240
Speaker 3: Who knows how this is going to go. And of

182
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 3: course with the elam ending there as well, it's not

183
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 3: necessarily about just the first three quarters. It's what happens

184
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 3: there in that last quarter. So it doesn't you know,

185
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,080
Speaker 3: I think Lebron, yes, his team should be the favorite,

186
00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:03,959
Speaker 3: but you know, this is not going to be a blowout.

187
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,680
Speaker 3: I don't think. I think it's going to be close,

188
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 3: because you know, they tend to be and that's what

189
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,560
Speaker 3: the NBA has certainly tried to you know, make it

190
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 3: in the last couple of years. It's like because you know,

191
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,439
Speaker 3: for so many years there it was just boring. There

192
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 3: was no competition. Now we are seeing a little bit

193
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,560
Speaker 3: of competition. And again I think that elm Ending at

194
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 3: least makes it that fourth quarter should be exciting. So

195
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 3: when you look at Team Lebron's options that he has

196
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 3: got perimeter and interior defenders there, it's pretty good. It's

197
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:30,040
Speaker 3: pretty deep.

198
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 1: Yeah. Look, I'll try to make a case for Team

199
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 1: Durant here a couple of things. Maybe they have too

200
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,560
Speaker 1: many good passers on the right team, you know, seriously,

201
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 1: as the task always says it right, it's they're too unselfish.

202
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 1: They'll just keep trying to find the pass and the

203
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,160
Speaker 1: best assist here, it's like somebody's gonna take the shot.

204
00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:52,400
Speaker 1: I'm just kidding a little bit. But of the four

205
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:55,679
Speaker 1: first time All Stars, Team Durant has three of them.

206
00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 1: Does that mean anything? You know, you get these guys

207
00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 1: in there for the first one, they really want to

208
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 1: impress the other All Stars. They want to put on

209
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,839
Speaker 1: a show. And I'm talking about Zach Levine, your boy there,

210
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 1: TK Julius Randall, and Zion Williamson so only Lebron. Who

211
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 1: does that leave? I believe Jalen Brown as the first

212
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 1: time All Stars, So maybe there's something there, or maybe

213
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,079
Speaker 1: that backfires and you know they're they're all nervous or

214
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,320
Speaker 1: something like that. Unlikely, but you know, if you've got

215
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:23,120
Speaker 1: the advantage in points and three point shooting, that's good

216
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 1: in an All Star game, that's good. I'll give that

217
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 1: to Durant. And he kept talking up the bucket getter,

218
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 1: so maybe he knows something that we don't. Well, let's

219
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:32,719
Speaker 1: talk about the moments from the All Star Draft. I

220
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 1: thought it was awesome overall, guys. I think the biggest

221
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:39,439
Speaker 1: storyline coming out of this was why does everybody hate

222
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,679
Speaker 1: the Utah Jazz? The Jazz with the NBA's best record

223
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 1: twenty seven and nine. But there we are at the

224
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:48,200
Speaker 1: end of it, Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert, the last

225
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,319
Speaker 1: two picks in the draft. It was you know, it

226
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 1: was pretty obvious that they were still there, and that

227
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 1: was a little shocking again being on the best team

228
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 1: to the point where chucking the guys on inside are

229
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 1: pointing it out, like what's going on here? And Lebron

230
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:06,160
Speaker 1: has to clarify his reasonings why they're still there at

231
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 1: the end, and he did a brutal job.

232
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 4: This is le.

233
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 1: Lebron made it ten times worse, and maybe he meant

234
00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 1: to because it was hilarious unless you're a Utah jazzman,

235
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 1: I guess, but he goes, there's no slander to the

236
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 1: Utah Jazz. Good start. You've got to understand, just like

237
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:25,280
Speaker 1: in video games growing up, we never played with Utah

238
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 1: as great as Karl Malone and John Stockton was. We

239
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 1: would never pick those guys. Holy moly, that sort of

240
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:35,679
Speaker 1: came out of left field like that. That reason there, Lely,

241
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:42,679
Speaker 1: But Jazz fans are ye, it's a little book, a

242
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,839
Speaker 1: little weird if I'm being completely honest. This was done

243
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,320
Speaker 1: Wednesday before that game against the Sixers too, and before

244
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,559
Speaker 1: obviously the Jazz were complaining about the fishiating and all that.

245
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,600
Speaker 1: This happened. This draft actually happened before that pre recorded.

246
00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:58,320
Speaker 1: But were you shocked that both Jazz guys were last,

247
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,680
Speaker 1: and then Lebron's reasoning and all that, You think.

248
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:02,959
Speaker 3: Uh, yeah, Donovan Mitchell I thought would have gone a

249
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 3: little bit higher. You know, I understand Rudy not being

250
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 3: a sexy pick for an All Star game. But but

251
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 3: he actually played really well last season in the All

252
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:11,400
Speaker 3: Star Game, Rudy gober But.

253
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 1: But the best part too near the end, Lebron like

254
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:16,680
Speaker 1: three guys are left right and he goes, yeah, well

255
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 1: I need some size. Yeah, okay you Mitchell, Okay, he's off,

256
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: that's Sibonis and and then he goes, Simonis now is

257
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:25,600
Speaker 1: a small guy.

258
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:31,200
Speaker 4: But Colbert six simonas seven five Rudy Gobert.

259
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:35,760
Speaker 3: It was like a David Brent moment though, to sort

260
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:37,959
Speaker 3: of say no, no slander, and you're like, okay, he's

261
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 3: going to say something nice, and then he just says, yeah,

262
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 3: these guys are just like Carmeline and John Stuckton. No

263
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:48,520
Speaker 3: one wanted to be those franchise it, so you sort

264
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 3: of you were sort of like you're waiting for him

265
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:54,040
Speaker 3: to just, you know, somehow sexy that up and make

266
00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 3: it a compliment. Instead it was it was, you know,

267
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 3: not not an insult, but he certainly seemed to just

268
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 3: make it worse by what he said there, but he

269
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,600
Speaker 3: obviously didn't mean it that way. He was just kind

270
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 3: of saying, you know, it's the jazz, that's all. They're

271
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:09,120
Speaker 3: just not a sexy franchise. But that, you know, I

272
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,120
Speaker 3: mean it's done Ofva, Mitchell and Rudy Gober. It's not

273
00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 3: stocked in them alone. I understand. I understand the Stockton

274
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 3: and Malone slander. I completely understand. No one wanted to

275
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:17,560
Speaker 3: be those guys, but.

276
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,800
Speaker 1: You didn't even pick them. I know you were picking

277
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 1: the Jazz.

278
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:24,960
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, I mean I was not a

279
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 3: Carl Malone fan, and I'm stucked. And you know, same thing,

280
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 3: like Johnny Stockton was like your dad out there playing,

281
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,560
Speaker 3: I mean, an incredible career, Hall of Fame and Dream Team.

282
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:35,880
Speaker 3: He's achieved everything except winning the championship. But no one,

283
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:37,960
Speaker 3: no one wanted to be John Stockton out on the court,

284
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,959
Speaker 3: you know. So that's just that's just unfortunately the way

285
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:42,840
Speaker 3: it is, even though they were one of the most

286
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,200
Speaker 3: successful one two combinations we've ever seen.

287
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:49,280
Speaker 1: Right right, Well, how surprised were you tree that? Again?

288
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 1: The size line there from Lebron, I mean, Vucevich and

289
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:55,960
Speaker 1: Sabonis being all of those guys, especially Mitchell, You're right,

290
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 1: why go bar You're like, okay, yeah, he's a defensive

291
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,679
Speaker 1: minded center. It's like this is an All Star game. Okay,

292
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 1: that one makes sense. Mitchell one's a little weird, right, Mitchell.

293
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 4: One's a little weird. And maybe that's what Lebron was

294
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:09,640
Speaker 4: saying when he said I need some size. He's knowing

295
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,320
Speaker 4: Rudy's dropping to the last one. I can get both

296
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 4: of these guys here, And honestly, it's gonna pay off

297
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 4: for Lebron because Rudy Gobert is the best defender in

298
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 4: the game and they're gonna actually matter in the fourth quarter.

299
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 4: Watch Rudy Gobert come up with a key block here.

300
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,480
Speaker 4: But I do like that the Jazz fans are taking

301
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 4: things pretty well. Saw this going around on Twitter last

302
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 4: night from Panasonic DX forty five hundred. It's from the

303
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 4: Jazz Reddit. It says more fuel man, if you're an

304
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 4: elite athlete, you gotta take things personally. This second half

305
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:41,480
Speaker 4: Jazz team is gonna be wild. Fair enough, Okay, we're

306
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 4: like the nerdy chick that just got voted prom queen

307
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:46,200
Speaker 4: and the hot chicks and the school knock over our

308
00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:51,640
Speaker 4: tray the cafeteria and take dirty shits in our backpack.

309
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 4: What we just got to come back the next day

310
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:57,280
Speaker 4: at school looking fine as fuck. Do the star QB

311
00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 4: on the first day in the car while skipping class.

312
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 4: Point is I want to see the Jazz go to

313
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 4: the dark side. Yay, oh my god, whoa, this is

314
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 4: pretty extreme, but uh, honestly, maybe it'll work. Maybe they will. Obviously,

315
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 4: the Jazz are feeling disrespected last night. They were pretty

316
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 4: clearly disrespected. You know, everybody's having a laugh about it.

317
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:19,640
Speaker 4: But it's gotta be a tough one for the Jazz,

318
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 4: especially fans, for the past twenty four hours. But you

319
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:24,640
Speaker 4: know what, they're still standing two guys to the All

320
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 4: Star team. They're still the best team in the league

321
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 4: so far, so maybe they're able to keep that chip

322
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:31,680
Speaker 4: on their shoulder and put things together in the second half.

323
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 4: The last time that the Jazz really got trash talked,

324
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:36,560
Speaker 4: they won twenty out of twenty one game, So maybe

325
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 4: this is gonna work out pretty nice for him come

326
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:39,320
Speaker 4: second half of the season.

327
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 3: They also have the coach too, Quinn Snyder is coaching

328
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 3: the team.

329
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 1: This interesting, So does Quinn Snyder does bench Lebron or

330
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 1: does he play them all forty eight minutes? Yeah?

331
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 3: I don't see why he would bench him. Wouldn't he

332
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 3: want to just drive Lebron into the ground in a

333
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 3: meaningless game. I mean, he's they're going to be, you know,

334
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 3: likely have to pass the Lakers if they're going to

335
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 3: do anything in the playoffs. So it's like, who cares,

336
00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:00,360
Speaker 3: Let's put Lebron out there, wear him down as much

337
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:02,480
Speaker 3: as possible, give my guys some rest, unless it's the

338
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:04,040
Speaker 3: last minute we need to win the game, and then

339
00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,280
Speaker 3: put Donovan on there and hope we can hit the basket.

340
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 1: But okay, well Donovan's not on his team.

341
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:10,720
Speaker 3: But yeah, go ah, sorry, yeah, yeah.

342
00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 1: I loved this entire draft. I love this draft. I

343
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 1: mean it was like, I can't believe we hadn't been

344
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:17,320
Speaker 1: doing this for twenty years, right, could you imagine like

345
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 1: basically like Barkley when he was playing, like doing this

346
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,400
Speaker 1: or something like that. But it's so good. I'm glad

347
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 1: we've added this and it doesn't appear that it's going

348
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 1: to go anywhere because these guys like seem to have

349
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,400
Speaker 1: some fun with it. We get these fun storylines out

350
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 1: of it. I just liked it was a little refreshing

351
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 1: having Kevin Durant as one of the gms. You know,

352
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 1: we had had what yoanness, I guess the last couple

353
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 1: of years with Lebron Steph hurry, step and Steph was

354
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 1: with Lebron. That's correct?

355
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:42,280
Speaker 2: You?

356
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,120
Speaker 1: So this was I loved it and I thought he

357
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 1: was like he was, I don't know, he was great.

358
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 1: I thought at first he was keeping it super cash

359
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 1: and I was like, uh, oh, are we going to

360
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 1: get sort of disgruntled Katie here, like this is stupid,

361
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:58,320
Speaker 1: I don't want to be here. But it was the

362
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:00,480
Speaker 1: complete opposite, right, Trey. I mean he was looking like

363
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 1: you in a happy hour, uh with her hat. Yeah,

364
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:07,479
Speaker 1: he was chilling, no doubt, keeping a cash but dropping

365
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:10,760
Speaker 1: zingers and like, uh, you know, was taking it as

366
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,040
Speaker 1: seriously as you could possibly take this thing, which is

367
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 1: I think is great.

368
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:14,439
Speaker 2: I was.

369
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:18,160
Speaker 1: I was very pleasantly surprised with him and Lebron going

370
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:19,520
Speaker 1: back and forth as the gems in this.

371
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, and you could tell that they had they both

372
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 4: took each other's player a couple of different times.

373
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:26,360
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, I wish I could have had that guy.

374
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 4: And I also thought Kad was pretty magnanimous, considering they

375
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 4: spent I don't know, ten minutes talking about when was

376
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:38,960
Speaker 4: the last time you were ever picked number two? Um hmm,

377
00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:41,679
Speaker 4: I can't think of a time. Yeah, I can't so

378
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:43,840
Speaker 4: I don't know. That was very funny to me hearing

379
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,679
Speaker 4: all the guys on t T be like, Oh, who's

380
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 4: the guy, where's that guy that was ever picked before you?

381
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:50,720
Speaker 5: Where is he?

382
00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:54,679
Speaker 4: Greg Odin is probably home watching this NBA draft. But

383
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,360
Speaker 4: KD was being pretty chill about it. It's funny when

384
00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:58,879
Speaker 4: he was saying, yeah, it was always one of the

385
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,359
Speaker 4: first couple of guys picked, so I thought he did

386
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:03,359
Speaker 4: a great job. We also saw his belly for a

387
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:05,399
Speaker 4: little bit there. He was just scratching his stomach. He

388
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 4: was keeping it cash. That's what you got to do

389
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 4: on a Thursday night.

390
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 1: I love that clip they showed us too, actually, of

391
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 1: those two guys Lebron and kat. I think it was

392
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:16,639
Speaker 1: the twenty ten All Story game, right, the one in

393
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:20,640
Speaker 1: Dallas in the big in Big Jerry Dome or whatever

394
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 1: the heck they call that huge arena. That was a

395
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:25,320
Speaker 1: cool clip, Lee after they showed us of those guys

396
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:27,680
Speaker 1: talking and they talked about like KAD being nervous talking

397
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,760
Speaker 1: to Lebron at the time. Yeah, I thought it was awesome. Yeah, no,

398
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:32,200
Speaker 1: it's great.

399
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 3: KD really has become the sort of a godfather figure

400
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:37,119
Speaker 3: like though in the NBA I think, you know, because

401
00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:40,719
Speaker 3: he was a young star on those early early teams

402
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,359
Speaker 3: in ok S were terrible, and now it's just become,

403
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,320
Speaker 3: you know, a revered figure in the league. He's he's

404
00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 3: been a villain and now he's kind of on the

405
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 3: rehab part of his career because you know, I mean,

406
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 3: he did something that is hard to sort of overlook

407
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 3: at and think that you know, that won't be mentioned

408
00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 3: for the rest of his career. But he won the championships,

409
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:01,240
Speaker 3: and now he needs that one in Brooklyn, I think,

410
00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:03,119
Speaker 3: and then all of a sudden, all that other stuff

411
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 3: goes away, because that's just the why it goes I mean,

412
00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:07,200
Speaker 3: you know, it's a lot of lebron When he got

413
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:10,200
Speaker 3: that one back in Cleveland, it's like, we forgive him

414
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:13,880
Speaker 3: forging well you know somebody, Yeah exactly. I I care

415
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 3: that he went to Miami one. I think good on him.

416
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:17,199
Speaker 3: He went and won and got the job done. But

417
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:19,760
Speaker 3: that's just the way that things get talked about in

418
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 3: the NBA world.

419
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:24,280
Speaker 1: Well, let's make some All Star Game MVP predictions. Because

420
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 1: we've talked about all the other events that are going

421
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 1: to be happening on Sunday night. We made our picks

422
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,600
Speaker 1: with Dunk Contest, three Point Contest, Skills Challenge, even but

423
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 1: All Star Game MVP. We now know the teams Trey

424
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:36,040
Speaker 1: get Us started. Who you picking and.

425
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:40,200
Speaker 4: Why I'm going with Damian Lillard. Okay, guy has been

426
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:42,800
Speaker 4: on fire for the entirety of this season. He's got

427
00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 4: so many clutch moments. I had some more last night.

428
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,359
Speaker 4: He's going into the All Star break on a hot streak,

429
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,600
Speaker 4: and I like that Lebron drafts him almost every single time.

430
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:53,800
Speaker 4: I think this is the third time he's picked Damian Lillard.

431
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:55,960
Speaker 4: He always taps at his watch. I thought it was

432
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,720
Speaker 4: funny last night that he was wearing a watch but

433
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 4: didn't tap the watch. He tapped his wrist right next

434
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,480
Speaker 4: to it. Didn't want to smear the bezel. I don't

435
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,440
Speaker 4: blame him, ye, So yeah, you know, when it comes

436
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:08,200
Speaker 4: down to it in the fourth quarter, they got to

437
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 4: play the elam ending, which means it's probably gonna come

438
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,399
Speaker 4: down to a last second shot. Damian Lillard has hit

439
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:15,520
Speaker 4: a lot of them so far this year. Hook them up.

440
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:17,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, I like that. When I try and make

441
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,760
Speaker 1: these picks, I do like to look at the guys

442
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:22,960
Speaker 1: obviously playing in the game, that's a good start, But

443
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:25,439
Speaker 1: figure out who the best player in the league is

444
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:28,600
Speaker 1: career wise that has never won an All Star Game MVP.

445
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:31,919
Speaker 1: I think there's something to that. I think Lillard is

446
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 1: on that list, is what I'm getting at. I think

447
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 1: Curry is on that list. I think Giannis is there,

448
00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:39,400
Speaker 1: and I would say James Harden is there. Those four

449
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:42,720
Speaker 1: guys jump out at me as guys again their career,

450
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:47,000
Speaker 1: the level, their Hall of Fame locks that don't have

451
00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 1: an All Star Game MVP, because it'll eventually, like I mean,

452
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,200
Speaker 1: even Wade talked about, like the best of the best

453
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,159
Speaker 1: usually go and get one of these. It's just the

454
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:55,760
Speaker 1: way it is. It's sort of cool, and some of

455
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 1: them get more obviously, like in Lebron and Katie's got

456
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:00,840
Speaker 1: a couple and all that. So I'm horn I mean,

457
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,639
Speaker 1: it feels like to me, there's potential there for a

458
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 1: Curry if I'm just going with my gut, but my

459
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:10,679
Speaker 1: heart says Devin Booker, which is a wild card of

460
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:13,159
Speaker 1: a pick. Now, I thought Lebron was going to get Booker,

461
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:16,439
Speaker 1: but Katie snatched him, and I think Lebron was like, oh, ow,

462
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,040
Speaker 1: I thought he might still be there. I thought I

463
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:20,400
Speaker 1: could get him a round or two later, and I'm

464
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:23,119
Speaker 1: taking the Booker being sort of like pissed off that

465
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,920
Speaker 1: he wasn't selected initially. His team is rolling. I think

466
00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 1: that team is flying under the radar in the suns.

467
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,679
Speaker 1: The guy can catch fire. Yeah, And it seems like

468
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 1: the other guys in the league love Devin Booker too,

469
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:35,399
Speaker 1: so I could see them sort of feeding him if

470
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,560
Speaker 1: he's got a couple threes. Going tough for a guy

471
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 1: to come off the bench and win MVP, right lely

472
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:41,159
Speaker 1: the last one to do it, you said, was like,

473
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:43,960
Speaker 1: was it Tom Chambers? Oh? I hate no, he was

474
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:46,800
Speaker 1: the injury replacement. Excuse me? So guys have come off

475
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:47,159
Speaker 1: the bench.

476
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, I think Westbrook. I think Westbrook came off

477
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:50,479
Speaker 3: the bench. He won two in a row. I think

478
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:52,680
Speaker 3: the second one he came off the bench right right.

479
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:54,920
Speaker 1: And there are other guys Glenn Race obviously. Yeah. I

480
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:58,479
Speaker 1: like that, but I'm gonna go Booker though. It feels

481
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:00,560
Speaker 1: like I love the Lillard pick, and like, again, one

482
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,000
Speaker 1: of those guys that doesn't have one that are elite players,

483
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 1: it's probably their year. But I'll go Booker.

484
00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 3: Who you got, Lily Well, Booker would be like Tom

485
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 3: Chambers being the replacement player if he was to go

486
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 3: on and win MVP, because that's Tom Chambers is still

487
00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:14,280
Speaker 3: the only player who has done that then nineteen eighty

488
00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:16,119
Speaker 3: seven and he started, so Booker would actually be the

489
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,199
Speaker 3: first coming off the bench as a replacement player if

490
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 3: is to do that. So there's some history there for Devin.

491
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 1: Yeah.

492
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:23,760
Speaker 3: I think though the MVP is going to come from

493
00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:26,120
Speaker 3: the winning team, and I think just the Lebron team

494
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:28,480
Speaker 3: is the stronger team and is likely to win this game.

495
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:31,240
Speaker 3: And I sort of look, who's the sort of guy

496
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:33,520
Speaker 3: who just can't really slow down, who doesn't have that

497
00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:36,520
Speaker 3: second gear, who just plays every game like it's his last.

498
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:38,399
Speaker 3: And I sort of just think Yannis is going to

499
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:40,760
Speaker 3: do it this season. I think he's starting, so he's

500
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 3: going to be able to go inside and score pretty easily,

501
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,879
Speaker 3: might hit a couple of threes. He can play defense.

502
00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:47,320
Speaker 3: I don't know if that comes into it or not,

503
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:50,720
Speaker 3: but I think, because I think team Lebron wins, Yannis

504
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:53,679
Speaker 3: as a starter, he can just he can just go

505
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:56,000
Speaker 3: out there and get thirty five points pretty easily. So

506
00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:57,960
Speaker 3: I will take Yannas in this one.

507
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,640
Speaker 1: Okay, good peck, I will say with Harden is interesting.

508
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,359
Speaker 1: I really thought twice about taking him because usually I

509
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:07,560
Speaker 1: would never touch Harden in an All Star game because

510
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 1: that guy has way too much fun at All Star

511
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 1: weekend and couldn't care at all about the game come

512
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:14,879
Speaker 1: Sunday night, if you know what I'm talking about. Different

513
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,199
Speaker 1: times here though, In theory, James Harden will not be

514
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,360
Speaker 1: out partying at the Strip.

515
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:28,880
Speaker 4: All best friends with a little baby, so baby from Atlanta.

516
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,600
Speaker 4: He went to Atlanta to party. I know, the beginning

517
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:33,560
Speaker 4: of the season looks here and you don't think he's

518
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 4: gonna he's gonna get and again.

519
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 1: Then he's gonna get fined again. He may maybe he will,

520
00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:42,119
Speaker 1: but find again. If these guys are for sure are

521
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,160
Speaker 1: seen at the Strip club, absolutely yeah.

522
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:48,720
Speaker 4: But I don't know. I remember, was it twenty seventeen

523
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 4: All Star Game was in New Orleans or maybe it

524
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:52,400
Speaker 4: was twenty eighteen.

525
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 1: I don't know. Whatever they want, Anthony David l A.

526
00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 4: Okay, So we we came in backstage for what a reason.

527
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:02,720
Speaker 4: We saw Harden walking around back there. I went up

528
00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:04,600
Speaker 4: to him, like, hey man, you're gonna win MVP. He's

529
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:09,000
Speaker 4: like no, no, He's like no, I'm definitely not going

530
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,200
Speaker 4: to have a good day. I was like, all right, cool,

531
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:13,840
Speaker 4: Anthony Davis went out and had fifty two. He won MVP,

532
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 4: So that was the last time I was like, I

533
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:18,159
Speaker 4: wonder if James Harden will ever win an All Star MVP.

534
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 4: Maybe he will if he makes ten threes or something

535
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:22,440
Speaker 4: like that. I don't think it's high on his list right.

536
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,560
Speaker 1: Now, No, I don't, but you get my reasoning right.

537
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:27,640
Speaker 1: If he actually is following protocol and he's not out

538
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:31,240
Speaker 1: all weekend party, if if, if, big, ifs, then maybe

539
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:33,280
Speaker 1: you know, he's incredible and like you said, he could

540
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 1: pour in forty to fifty with his in his sleep

541
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 1: and all the assists he would rack up too. I

542
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:38,960
Speaker 1: think he's a bit of a wild card. I don't

543
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:41,120
Speaker 1: have the I don't know the odds, so don't got

544
00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:43,680
Speaker 1: bet MGM open in front of me. But that's he's

545
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,479
Speaker 1: my wildcard, pit James hard But what's more likely then

546
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:49,199
Speaker 1: he wins All Star Game MVP or a video is

547
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,960
Speaker 1: released you know of some sort of him in the club,

548
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,320
Speaker 1: Probably that one, I guess. I don't know, hopefully not.

549
00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:58,080
Speaker 1: Let's hear from you guys. All Star Game MVP predictions,

550
00:24:58,240 --> 00:24:59,879
Speaker 1: which team. Do you like more to let us know

551
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,280
Speaker 1: the YouTube comments or the stream team or tweet at

552
00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:04,400
Speaker 1: us at no dunk sake. Okay, let's play a little

553
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:06,359
Speaker 1: what you got? What's it?

554
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:10,200
Speaker 2: Good question?

555
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, a little what you got? Just a you know,

556
00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 1: creative way to touch on some of the games last

557
00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:19,240
Speaker 1: night as we now head into the All Star break,

558
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:22,119
Speaker 1: A couple of games I'm rapping together here. Jimmy Butler,

559
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 1: he took over late. Heat defeated the Pelicans on TNT

560
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 1: one oh three ninety three. Jason Tatum scored twenty seven

561
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:32,920
Speaker 1: as the Celtics outlasted the depleted Raptors. One decent fight

562
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:34,919
Speaker 1: there from the Raps but came up short, and the

563
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:39,239
Speaker 1: Bucks sneaked past the Grizzlies by one entertaining game. We

564
00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:41,000
Speaker 1: know the Nets and the Sixers are still the two

565
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,520
Speaker 1: best teams in the East, But Trey going to start

566
00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:47,040
Speaker 1: with you, who do you have more faith in in

567
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:50,919
Speaker 1: making a deep playoff run? The Heat, the Celtics or

568
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,119
Speaker 1: the Bucks. All three of those teams of course winning

569
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:53,960
Speaker 1: last night, What you.

570
00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:57,560
Speaker 4: Got for me, It's gotta be the Miami Heat, and

571
00:25:57,600 --> 00:25:59,919
Speaker 4: it's just because of Jimmy Butler. Honestly, we all kind

572
00:25:59,920 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 4: of I thought they would turn for the better once

573
00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 4: Jimmy Butler was able to string some games together, and

574
00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:07,480
Speaker 4: that's exactly what happened. What has happened. He's played twenty

575
00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 4: two games this season. The Miami Heat are fourteen and eight.

576
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,359
Speaker 4: In those games, that would be equivalent to the third

577
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:16,920
Speaker 4: best record in the Eastern Conference if he were playing

578
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,000
Speaker 4: for the entirety of the season. Now, we know every

579
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,240
Speaker 4: single team has had to deal with COVID protocols and

580
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:24,280
Speaker 4: injuries this season, so I can't really hold it against them.

581
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:26,359
Speaker 4: But when it comes down to it, I think Jimmy

582
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:29,480
Speaker 4: Butler is the best playoff player on any of these

583
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,720
Speaker 4: three teams that we're talking about, the Bucks, the Celtics,

584
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:33,640
Speaker 4: and the Heat because he can get to the rim

585
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:35,959
Speaker 4: when he needs to, he can hit an outside jumper

586
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 4: when he needs to, he can draw free throws, get

587
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:40,880
Speaker 4: to the foul line when he needs to, and those

588
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,800
Speaker 4: are three efficient ways to score. He obviously brings it

589
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:45,879
Speaker 4: defensively on the other end. We saw last night just

590
00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:49,160
Speaker 4: making clutch play after clutch play after clutch play down

591
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,119
Speaker 4: the stretch. That's what you get from Jimmy Butler. Not

592
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,919
Speaker 4: to mention I think the Heat have the best coach

593
00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:56,320
Speaker 4: of these three teams. They've got a lot of versatility,

594
00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:58,640
Speaker 4: and they've got the mentality for it. They're really able

595
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:00,640
Speaker 4: to buckle down. As we saw in the ball last year.

596
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:02,760
Speaker 4: Everybody was saying that was kind of the perfect scenario

597
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:04,919
Speaker 4: for them, where you're just there, all you can do

598
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:06,040
Speaker 4: is play basketball.

599
00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:08,879
Speaker 1: Doesn't feel like the Bucks have a lot of moves

600
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:09,119
Speaker 1: to make.

601
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:10,679
Speaker 4: They might be able to make some moves around the

602
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:14,040
Speaker 4: margin where the Miami Heat could swing something a little

603
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:16,359
Speaker 4: bit bigger here. It feels like the Celtics they're going

604
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:19,679
Speaker 4: to be adding marginal rotation pieces as well, but the

605
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:23,000
Speaker 4: Heat could significantly improve, not to mention the improvements they've

606
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,560
Speaker 4: already seen seeing Jimmy Butler get back to his all

607
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:26,800
Speaker 4: star caliber kind of player.

608
00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 1: Self goes with the Miami Heat. It's a tough one, Leley,

609
00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:32,359
Speaker 1: Where are you leaning in this pick?

610
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 2: Again?

611
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:34,400
Speaker 1: It's sort of like, I guess it all depends, of course,

612
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,439
Speaker 1: on matchups and stuff like that, and that's way too

613
00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:37,800
Speaker 1: early for that. But who do you have more faith

614
00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:38,560
Speaker 1: in of these three teams?

615
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,159
Speaker 3: Heats, Bucks, I mean, I think Trey's right that in

616
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:43,919
Speaker 3: the playoffs, I think Jimmy Butler proved last season in

617
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,480
Speaker 3: the Bubble by beating both of these teams that he

618
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:49,480
Speaker 3: was the best playoff performer. Giannis I think is the

619
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:52,040
Speaker 3: best play at most athletic, youngest and he's prime all

620
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,440
Speaker 3: those sorts of things. But when it comes to the playoffs,

621
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:57,080
Speaker 3: it's a different game. And Jimmy, I mean, they basically

622
00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 3: swept the box and I went to five games in

623
00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:02,000
Speaker 3: the end, but eventually, you know, really.

624
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 1: Yes was injured as that one.

625
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, we can say that, but let's see,

626
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:10,439
Speaker 3: he got injured, but that series was over really and

627
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:12,359
Speaker 3: then against the Celtics that went to six games, and

628
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:15,760
Speaker 3: it was also a playoff type of style, whereas like

629
00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,399
Speaker 3: grind those victories out. Again, I think the Celtics had

630
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,720
Speaker 3: a very good team that well coached all those things,

631
00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:22,919
Speaker 3: but Jimmy kind of like stepped up his game. So

632
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:26,359
Speaker 3: I think, based on recent history, I also go with

633
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:29,119
Speaker 3: the Heat it should be the Bucks. It should be

634
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:31,760
Speaker 3: because I think overall they probably have the better team.

635
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:34,399
Speaker 3: But it's just shown that in the playoffs it's a

636
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:35,920
Speaker 3: different game and you have to step it up, and

637
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:37,800
Speaker 3: you know, I think Jannas will get there in the end.

638
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:40,800
Speaker 3: A lot of players through at NBA history have taken

639
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 3: some time to figure it out in the postseason, so

640
00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:45,360
Speaker 3: I think he's still got so much time to do

641
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:47,480
Speaker 3: it and get it right and learning by watching and

642
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:49,960
Speaker 3: playing against guys like Jimmy of how to win. But

643
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:52,959
Speaker 3: I think for this season, when they're at full strength,

644
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 3: that Miami Heat team is just such a tough out

645
00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 3: both ends of the floor. So I also choose the Heat.

646
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 1: It's pretty crazy to think those three teams gave you

647
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:02,800
Speaker 1: one of them is likely losing in the first round,

648
00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:05,840
Speaker 1: and wow, that'll be a disappointment for any of those

649
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:08,120
Speaker 1: three teams. Yes, I mean, I guess they all in

650
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 1: theory could win if they don't match up with each other,

651
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:12,960
Speaker 1: but it's very possible that one of those teams does

652
00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:15,520
Speaker 1: not get to the first round. All right, Moving on,

653
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:19,120
Speaker 1: Damian Lillard forty four points, including ten straight down the stretch.

654
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:20,680
Speaker 1: He gave the Blazers a one twenty three, one to

655
00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:23,760
Speaker 1: nineteen victory over the Kings, and then Drew Holiday had

656
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:26,120
Speaker 1: a baseline jumper with two seconds left to give the

657
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,480
Speaker 1: Bucks that victory over the Grizzlies. That I said, one

658
00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:31,920
Speaker 1: point game. This one was fun. They exchange leads like

659
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:34,040
Speaker 1: five times in the final minute. But the question is

660
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:36,640
Speaker 1: here that what you got more cold blooded last night,

661
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:40,040
Speaker 1: Dame time, you know, Lillard threes, hitting all those big

662
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:43,840
Speaker 1: shots late, or Drew Holiday's game winning jumper going the

663
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:45,960
Speaker 1: other way after John Morani scored, trade what you got,

664
00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:48,640
Speaker 1: I'm going with Dame. I mean, they beat the Kings

665
00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:51,400
Speaker 1: in a close game, not anything special, but the Kings

666
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 1: were up by five with three to fifty left. Like

667
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:57,000
Speaker 1: you said, Skeets, Lillard scores ten straight, a jumper, a layup,

668
00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:57,840
Speaker 1: a couple of threes.

669
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,520
Speaker 4: They got a five point lead just like that. Blazers

670
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,920
Speaker 4: are suddenly having their best start after thirty five games

671
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:07,320
Speaker 4: since twenty fifteen. And the reason Willard is the choice

672
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:09,920
Speaker 4: here for me is that it's just another MVP performance

673
00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:13,160
Speaker 4: that we see from all these players, you know, every

674
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,240
Speaker 4: single night. It feels like something. This has got to

675
00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:17,080
Speaker 4: be one of the better races that we've had going

676
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:20,000
Speaker 4: into the All Star break for players who could win

677
00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:23,040
Speaker 4: the MVP, because you know, Lillard has really been carrying

678
00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:25,200
Speaker 4: this team. They haven't taken a step back at all

679
00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 4: since Nurkic, and since Nurkican, the column both went down

680
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:32,240
Speaker 4: but I mean, Lollard right now is in the top

681
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 4: five on Basketball Reference as MVP tracker with Jokic, Harden, Embiid, Yannis,

682
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:39,840
Speaker 4: and then Damian Lillard is coming in at number five,

683
00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:43,200
Speaker 4: which seems incredibly low to me, considering we've talked about

684
00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:45,600
Speaker 4: him so many times, We've seen so many clutch performances

685
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:47,840
Speaker 4: from him. That's just how good the MVP field is

686
00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:50,120
Speaker 4: right now. Once it feels like somebody's starting to run

687
00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:52,800
Speaker 4: away with it, somebody else comes charging back. So another

688
00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:55,520
Speaker 4: one by Damian Lillard last night, keeping his name in

689
00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:57,960
Speaker 4: the mix. Great stuff, Lee.

690
00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:00,520
Speaker 1: What do you think. I mean, Drew had the game here,

691
00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:02,360
Speaker 1: but Tray's making a great case for what he did,

692
00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 1: taking over more cold blooded.

693
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:06,800
Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, I actually tweeted it just out this morning

694
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:10,240
Speaker 3: about Damian Lillard in according to NBA dot Com, in

695
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:12,600
Speaker 3: the clutch this season, he's played seventy one minutes. He's

696
00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 3: scored one hundred and four points. He's thirty one for

697
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:18,360
Speaker 3: forty nine on field goals at sixty three percent, fourteen

698
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:21,480
Speaker 3: for twenty four on threes at fifty eight percent, perfect

699
00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 3: at the free throw line, twenty eight for twenty eight.

700
00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:25,960
Speaker 3: He's a plus forty two and the Blazers are fourteen

701
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:27,280
Speaker 3: and five in those games.

702
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:29,560
Speaker 1: So that's a five point game within the final five

703
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:30,240
Speaker 1: minutes of the game.

704
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 3: That's what I believe. Yes, now they may not have

705
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:35,080
Speaker 3: actually even updated from last night. Sometimes they do take

706
00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:36,760
Speaker 3: a day or so, but it just shows that, you know,

707
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:39,520
Speaker 3: when it does get to that that time of the game,

708
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:43,160
Speaker 3: Lilard just performs and delivers and raises his game. So yeah,

709
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,200
Speaker 3: I mean, Holiday hit a nice shot.

710
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 1: Liland hit little.

711
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 3: It hit like four last night though as well, so

712
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:51,520
Speaker 3: you know it's hard to knock that. But I will

713
00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:54,400
Speaker 3: also give Jarmarank credit for putting Grizzlies ahead. That was

714
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:57,000
Speaker 3: a wicked basket and he drove inside. You know, for

715
00:31:57,040 --> 00:31:59,120
Speaker 3: a young player to have that composure and going to

716
00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:02,360
Speaker 3: make that playoff thought was incredible. So great job there

717
00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 3: by him. But yeah, Drew Holliday, it was one of

718
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:05,920
Speaker 3: those make or miss league shots. It's like, you missed

719
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:08,640
Speaker 3: that and the Bucks lose to the Grizzlies most likely.

720
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:11,280
Speaker 3: Instead he makes it, they win, and it's like the

721
00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 3: Bucks win as they should have against the Grizzlies. So

722
00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:15,920
Speaker 3: you know, he took it. That's what they got him for. Right,

723
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:17,800
Speaker 3: he's a leader, he's a veteran. They need to be

724
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:19,920
Speaker 3: able to trust someone to take a shot in the

725
00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:22,480
Speaker 3: clutch moment. And he didn't need delivered, So good on him.

726
00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:25,040
Speaker 3: But I mean Little It just it seems to almost

727
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:27,600
Speaker 3: happen every other game with Little It. Now it's like

728
00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:30,480
Speaker 3: back to back notes. Yeah, and he's and it's you know,

729
00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 3: it's more than one shot. Now he's doing it like

730
00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:34,080
Speaker 3: in the last two or three minutes where he's hitting

731
00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:34,640
Speaker 3: those shots, so.

732
00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 1: Getting more, He's getting more and more like like intense too.

733
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:41,800
Speaker 1: You not seing this like after all these shots, Like

734
00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:43,880
Speaker 1: I know this is sort of his thing. He's sometimes

735
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:45,760
Speaker 1: of course pointing out the watch its name time, but

736
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:49,680
Speaker 1: like he's now almost having like no reaction. It's starting

737
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:51,520
Speaker 1: to get a little creepy. Like he hits these like

738
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:53,920
Speaker 1: huge threes and just like just walks back to the

739
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:57,240
Speaker 1: bench like he's just so pissed off. He's like offended

740
00:32:57,360 --> 00:32:59,480
Speaker 1: that people are even out there on the court will

741
00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:01,280
Speaker 1: he's shooting. That's crazy.

742
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:05,160
Speaker 3: He's just so bored with it now he does every

743
00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:07,320
Speaker 3: single game. It's like how can he get excited? It's

744
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:08,840
Speaker 3: like he's it's like he's going to work. You know,

745
00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:11,560
Speaker 3: it's like what anyone says, like when a job sort

746
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:13,920
Speaker 3: of becomes less fun and it becomes just like a job.

747
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:16,680
Speaker 3: You know that shows in that. But no, he's great

748
00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:20,160
Speaker 3: and hopefully we get c J. McCollum and Nurkis back

749
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:21,360
Speaker 3: to here soon for the Blazers.

750
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:23,880
Speaker 4: I don't think they need Nurkic if we're being honest,

751
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:26,320
Speaker 4: because it wasn't just Willard putting in work last night.

752
00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:30,160
Speaker 4: Terry Stotts said the team struggled to rebound. I disagree

753
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:34,880
Speaker 4: because Ni's Cantor did his part. Jd roll that beautiful

754
00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:36,800
Speaker 4: beef footage.

755
00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:42,720
Speaker 5: Ernest Cantor had twenty one rebounds. That's a lot of

756
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:54,719
Speaker 5: roast beef. That's a triple bee, a big Blazer beef,

757
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:07,960
Speaker 5: no dunks. We love roast beef which is rebounds.

758
00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:11,239
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, oh yeah.

759
00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:16,400
Speaker 1: I absolutely love watching these highlights of a guy rebounding.

760
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:18,440
Speaker 1: It's killing me. I love the t.

761
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 4: That's right, Go get your big Beef T shirt. No

762
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:26,360
Speaker 4: dunks dot com or breaking tea dot com slash, no dunks,

763
00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:31,440
Speaker 4: big beef, roast beef equals rebounds. Yeah, this was a

764
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:33,800
Speaker 4: great one from Cantor. Cantor is one of the funniest

765
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,960
Speaker 4: beefs to watch. He's tied with Andre Drummond now for

766
00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:39,480
Speaker 4: most beefs in the league at three. And like you're

767
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:41,479
Speaker 4: seeing in those ones skeets, there are a lot where

768
00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:44,760
Speaker 4: the ball is just slap slap slapping around, but biggest

769
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:47,840
Speaker 4: guy on the court happens to be there. Cantor's actually

770
00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:51,040
Speaker 4: been pretty solid for the Blazers. Remember, once Nurkic went down,

771
00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:52,600
Speaker 4: we started talking, what are they gonna do? Are they

772
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:54,399
Speaker 4: gonna roll with Harry Giles here? Are they just gonna

773
00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:56,799
Speaker 4: go with Cantor maybe bring somebody in. Pretty much have

774
00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:59,359
Speaker 4: just gone with Cantor. In the pressure he puts on

775
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:02,600
Speaker 4: the rim as an offensive rebounder, it certainly matters for

776
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:04,680
Speaker 4: the Blazers. He's gonna get some points back on the

777
00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:07,600
Speaker 4: defensive end, but he's also gonna be slapping the ball.

778
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:11,640
Speaker 1: Away sometimes in the middle of the lane. The Vegan Beef. Yeah,

779
00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:13,600
Speaker 1: that's right, I love it. So that's what three you

780
00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 1: said for him and Drummond?

781
00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:16,439
Speaker 4: Is that right? Yeah, that's right, exactly, wow.

782
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:18,520
Speaker 1: Three And we almost had a cule Lowry get some

783
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:21,279
Speaker 1: applesauce last night and nineteen assists in the Raptors lost

784
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:25,920
Speaker 1: to the Celtics. All right, great, great final one Julius Randall.

785
00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:29,600
Speaker 1: He capped off his incredible first half of this year

786
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:32,800
Speaker 1: with twenty seven points, sixteen boards, seven assists, sending the

787
00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:35,719
Speaker 1: Knicks into the break with a winning record after a

788
00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:37,759
Speaker 1: ten point victory over the Piston. So New York has

789
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:41,040
Speaker 1: improved to nineteen and eighteen under TIBs. And then later

790
00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:43,800
Speaker 1: in the night, the Suns cruised past the shorthanded Warriors

791
00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:47,200
Speaker 1: one twenty ninety eight, Phoenix's sixteenth win in their last

792
00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:49,480
Speaker 1: nineteen games. I swear this is flying under the radar.

793
00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:52,560
Speaker 1: They entered the break twenty four and eleven. Suns are

794
00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:54,760
Speaker 1: in second place in the West. I mean, it's Jazz

795
00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:56,759
Speaker 1: and then it's the Suns, and then I've obviously got

796
00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:59,759
Speaker 1: to LA teams. So LEO ask it like this more

797
00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:02,360
Speaker 1: so prizing team at the halfway mark? Is it the

798
00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:05,080
Speaker 1: Knicks being a Buffeto hundred or is it the Suns

799
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:07,920
Speaker 1: being you know, pretty special here in the Western Conference

800
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:08,640
Speaker 1: sitting at second?

801
00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:09,200
Speaker 4: What you got?

802
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:11,720
Speaker 3: The Sons have the second best record in the league,

803
00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:15,680
Speaker 3: which is really incredible when you think about it like that,

804
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:19,160
Speaker 3: and they have the eighth best offense, but the third

805
00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:22,400
Speaker 3: best defense, So that just shows you they're doing it now.

806
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 3: I know those numbers do move around. We know the

807
00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:26,200
Speaker 3: Mavericks are in there at second best defense for a while,

808
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:28,319
Speaker 3: so it does chop and change, But the Sons are

809
00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:30,840
Speaker 3: getting it done and they really are. Like I wondered

810
00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:33,520
Speaker 3: if they could finish in the top four right now

811
00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:35,520
Speaker 3: where things are going, you think like that has to

812
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:37,520
Speaker 3: be their goal going into the second half of the season,

813
00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:39,440
Speaker 3: because I think they can achieve that if they keep

814
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:41,480
Speaker 3: it up. They're playing well. Monty Williams has done a

815
00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:44,240
Speaker 3: great job. Chris Paul obviously, his experience and his leadership

816
00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:47,520
Speaker 3: there is really paying off Booker, you know, after a

817
00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:49,280
Speaker 3: bit of a slow starter, started to get it together.

818
00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:51,080
Speaker 3: And if they can get just a little more out

819
00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:53,680
Speaker 3: of DeAndre eight and as well, I think they really

820
00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:55,640
Speaker 3: can make a strong push in the second half season.

821
00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:57,880
Speaker 3: It is incredible that the Knicks are over five hundred,

822
00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 3: but I would have said it's way more unlikely coming

823
00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:03,120
Speaker 3: into the season that the Sons would have the second

824
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,279
Speaker 3: best record at this point of the season than the

825
00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:08,080
Speaker 3: Knicks being over five hundred. So I'll take the Suns.

826
00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:11,279
Speaker 3: I just think it's been a masterful job out there

827
00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:12,360
Speaker 3: by everyone involved.

828
00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:15,560
Speaker 1: Trey, where do you go? Knicks? Are Sons? More surprising

829
00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:16,680
Speaker 1: here at the halfway mark.

830
00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:19,520
Speaker 4: I'm going with the Knicks just because you can make

831
00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:21,520
Speaker 4: a case for the Sons. You say, they got an

832
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:23,600
Speaker 4: All Star and Devin Booker. They added a Hall of

833
00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:25,920
Speaker 4: Famer and Chris Paul. They've got a recent number one

834
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:28,719
Speaker 4: draft pick. That's the start of a good team. When

835
00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:31,239
Speaker 4: the Knicks were coming into this season, a lot of

836
00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,560
Speaker 4: people were worried that Tom Thibodeau is their coach and

837
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:35,400
Speaker 4: he's going to play their young players too much and

838
00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:36,880
Speaker 4: it wasn't going to work out. Well, they were right,

839
00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 4: he's playing their young players a ton, but it's working out.

840
00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:42,080
Speaker 4: These are mostly players who not a lot of a

841
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:44,920
Speaker 4: lot of fans had high on the list. You know,

842
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:47,520
Speaker 4: Julius Randall was a guy who bounced around the league.

843
00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:50,280
Speaker 4: Now he's an All Star. Emmanuel Quickly was the Knicks

844
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:53,440
Speaker 4: second draft pick this year and now he's become the

845
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:57,279
Speaker 4: best float guy in the NBA. Knicks fans love him.

846
00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:00,520
Speaker 4: Derek Rose, that move was kind of panned when it

847
00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:02,120
Speaker 4: happened and saying, why are you doing this? You're gonna

848
00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:04,439
Speaker 4: Bury a manual quickly, we're gonna end up playing Alfred

849
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:07,200
Speaker 4: Peyton and Derreck Rose. That move has worked out. Everything

850
00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:09,160
Speaker 4: is going well for the Knicks right now, which is

851
00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:10,320
Speaker 4: a huge surprise.

852
00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:14,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is a tough one. I'm glad I sort

853
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:15,440
Speaker 1: of threw this one at you guys. I like that

854
00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:17,399
Speaker 1: you're both taking opposite sides because I think you can

855
00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:19,319
Speaker 1: make the case, as you guys did, for either of

856
00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:22,520
Speaker 1: these being big, big surprises. I think I lean Suns

857
00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:25,239
Speaker 1: just with the elite record compared to the Knicks, and

858
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:27,000
Speaker 1: only I think I'm holding. What I'm holding against the

859
00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:30,160
Speaker 1: Knicks is it feels like every team in the Eastern

860
00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:33,920
Speaker 1: Conference is one or two games from five hundred, and

861
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:36,320
Speaker 1: you know, the Knicks are right there, and and kudos

862
00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:38,279
Speaker 1: to them. They've surprised me. I didn't think they'd be

863
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:40,920
Speaker 1: that high, but here they are. Obviously, if the playoffs

864
00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:42,839
Speaker 1: started today, they're in there without a doubt, and they're

865
00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:44,960
Speaker 1: what would they be like the fifth seed right now

866
00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:48,520
Speaker 1: something like that. So yeah, tough one. You can't go wrong.

867
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:51,240
Speaker 1: But it's like the This is like the early nineties

868
00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:55,240
Speaker 1: with the Nixon Sons being good and being both solid teams.

869
00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,120
Speaker 1: Here so hopefully this continues in the second half. I

870
00:38:57,160 --> 00:38:59,360
Speaker 1: think the Knicks have a very difficult second half of

871
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:02,560
Speaker 1: the season. I know everybody is with the obviously the

872
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:04,680
Speaker 1: condensed schedule and all that, but I think they have

873
00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:07,800
Speaker 1: a tough strength to schedule. If Schuman's in here, I

874
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:09,719
Speaker 1: don't know if he's awake. So you said about those

875
00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:12,799
Speaker 1: stats Updatingly, that's Schumann's job at the end of every night.

876
00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:14,560
Speaker 1: He actually has to go in and manually put them

877
00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:16,480
Speaker 1: into NBA dot com slash stats. So that's why it

878
00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:17,560
Speaker 1: sometimes takes to the morning.

879
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:20,560
Speaker 3: Well tweet I said something once and he said those

880
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:22,600
Speaker 3: stats are like a couple of weeks old or something.

881
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:23,880
Speaker 3: I'm like, okay, maybe that.

882
00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:24,640
Speaker 2: I mean, I.

883
00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:26,879
Speaker 3: Understand I don't necessarily update immediately.

884
00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 1: They're pretty quick over there.

885
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:30,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, you know, I hope, so, I hope

886
00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:31,080
Speaker 3: so Shume's you know.

887
00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:32,840
Speaker 1: Yeah. And and just to uh, I don't want to

888
00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:35,080
Speaker 1: push back on you said, like when you're talking about

889
00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:37,719
Speaker 1: the defensive efficiency with the Suns being really good, and

890
00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:39,239
Speaker 1: then you brought in the MAVs and like how they

891
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:41,239
Speaker 1: were good early. I mean again, that was like it

892
00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 1: was like five games into the season than that it

893
00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:47,440
Speaker 1: was yeahs a week or two into the seasonally, when

894
00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:49,560
Speaker 1: the MAVs were like in the lean defensive team. I'm

895
00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:52,200
Speaker 1: just saying, I'm the Sun's credit here. You know, we're

896
00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:54,480
Speaker 1: thirty five games in. I mean, yeah, I'm for real

897
00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:55,600
Speaker 1: as much as it can be for real.

898
00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:58,760
Speaker 3: But those defensive writings as well, like the margin between

899
00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:01,400
Speaker 3: teams say two and team eight, can sometimes only be

900
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:02,839
Speaker 3: like a point and a half as well, it can

901
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:03,479
Speaker 3: be yeah, of.

902
00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:04,960
Speaker 1: Course it can change quickly, yeah.

903
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:07,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, But the sons of the Sons have clearly improved

904
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:10,839
Speaker 3: on both ends of the floor, and they you know,

905
00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:14,120
Speaker 3: it's they look a little bit like, you know, this

906
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:16,120
Speaker 3: is a team that could stay in the top four.

907
00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:18,040
Speaker 3: I expect a bit like the Jazz, they'll hit a

908
00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:19,520
Speaker 3: bit of a bump in the road at some point,

909
00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:23,000
Speaker 3: but so far everything has gone to plan for them,

910
00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:26,520
Speaker 3: because this was a playoffs or bust season for them,

911
00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:29,400
Speaker 3: and surely from here they're not going to miss the

912
00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:31,879
Speaker 3: playoffs anyway. I mean, Devin Booker, I think the most

913
00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:33,560
Speaker 3: games he's ever won in his career was down in

914
00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:35,440
Speaker 3: the bubble, was like thirty two. Well he's got twenty

915
00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:38,440
Speaker 3: four or something already now, so surely he's going to

916
00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:40,960
Speaker 3: get finally reach that goal of making the playoffs and win,

917
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:42,320
Speaker 3: you know, more than forty games.

918
00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:44,080
Speaker 1: It will be interesting with both of these teams when

919
00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:46,480
Speaker 1: we get into the second half, other teams taking them

920
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:48,520
Speaker 1: more seriously when they come in to play them. Yeah,

921
00:40:48,840 --> 00:40:50,719
Speaker 1: we see that happen a lot, like, oh wow, yeah

922
00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:52,560
Speaker 1: the Suns are good. We better have a game plan

923
00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:54,080
Speaker 1: here and figure out how we're going to try and

924
00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:55,840
Speaker 1: slow them. And yeah, seem for the Knicks even a

925
00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:57,480
Speaker 1: little bit, like let's figure out a way where we

926
00:40:57,480 --> 00:40:58,840
Speaker 1: can try to be them. I think the Knicks have

927
00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:01,600
Speaker 1: been oddly favored to teams like shooting like crap from

928
00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:04,960
Speaker 1: three point distance against them. I think I either heard

929
00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:07,040
Speaker 1: another podcast say that or I saw it in a tweet.

930
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:10,920
Speaker 1: I mean, I really should do my I can't keep

931
00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:14,040
Speaker 1: track of everything, but they've been they've been fortunate for

932
00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:16,080
Speaker 1: like open shot three point shooters just to like have

933
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 1: a weird season where they're missing more than they're making.

934
00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 1: But see if they can keep it up. Okay, that

935
00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:23,560
Speaker 1: was us touching on last night's game. As we head

936
00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:25,000
Speaker 1: into the All Star break, we're gonna get to the

937
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:26,440
Speaker 1: worst of the week. We got five star Friday, I

938
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:29,160
Speaker 1: got so much more. But first quick word from our sponsors.

939
00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:33,600
Speaker 1: It's time for worst of the week, ladies and gentlemen,

940
00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:35,520
Speaker 1: the worst of the week.

941
00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:48,200
Speaker 2: So yeah, Test sent in his Uh, I'm just I'm

942
00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:49,320
Speaker 2: stalling here because.

943
00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:52,040
Speaker 1: We didn't go over this. I didn't know if I

944
00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:53,600
Speaker 1: was coming on Yeah, but I didn't know if it

945
00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:55,400
Speaker 1: was gonna roll right into Test. I didn't know if

946
00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:56,280
Speaker 1: you were gonna say.

947
00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:57,920
Speaker 2: What I okay, what I should have done was just

948
00:41:57,960 --> 00:42:01,239
Speaker 2: taking the worst intro and I get right onto the thing.

949
00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:04,840
Speaker 2: But you know, hindsight twenty twenty. So here is tass's

950
00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:06,280

977
00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:35,279
Speaker 1: But don't worry. Maybe some things are in store a

978
00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:37,800
Speaker 1: little bit later, either today or maybe even this weekend.

979
00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:42,440
Speaker 1: And that's all I'm gonna say. That's all I'm gonness say. Yeah, wow, okay,

00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:44,880
Speaker 1: how do you feel about that? Tray that that hurts. Eh.

981
00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:48,120
Speaker 4: I mean, he's right, we earned it. We earned it

982
00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:50,400
Speaker 4: this week. But like you're saying, Skeets, the week is

983
00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:54,360
Speaker 4: not over. But it really do be like that sometimes,

984
00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:58,120
Speaker 4: like John Starks, my heart is just crushed, crushed. I'm

985
00:43:58,120 --> 00:43:59,760
Speaker 4: feeling the worst I have this week.

986
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:03,040
Speaker 1: I think what happened there is there was so many

987
00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:05,879
Speaker 1: nominees for actually Worse of the Week that task is like, ah,

988
00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:07,919
Speaker 1: I'm gonna pivot, I'm gonna swerve here and just throw

989
00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:10,839
Speaker 1: it on TK and and Skeets, the top shot hot Boys,

990
00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:12,799
Speaker 1: but nic t shirt Plug, There've got to now dunks

991
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:15,960
Speaker 1: dot Com, I grab you're a gear Lee. Is there

992
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:17,880
Speaker 1: anyone in the NBA world from this week that you

993
00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:19,799
Speaker 1: actually would give it to that that jumped out of you?

994
00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:21,680
Speaker 3: Worst of the Week?

995
00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:25,640
Speaker 1: Well, funny Shaq was a popular one.

996
00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:29,640
Speaker 3: Yeah for sure. Yeah, that was a great one there

997
00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:34,040
Speaker 3: because because Kanas Parker is a great basketball player and

998
00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:37,600
Speaker 3: a fantastic analyst as well, and she is so comfortable

999
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:40,920
Speaker 3: up there at the big desk, and she wasn't being

1000
00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:44,359
Speaker 3: in any way disrespectful or rude or patronizing the shack.

1001
00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:46,480
Speaker 3: She was just kind of explaining the way it was

1002
00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:49,920
Speaker 3: and Shack just seemed to be I'm Shack, I'm right,

1003
00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:52,360
Speaker 3: I don't care. I've got four championships, I'm an MVP

1004
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:54,800
Speaker 3: and a Hall of Famer, and I'm not listening to anybody.

1005
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:57,719
Speaker 3: And he came off like an ass. He did, he

1006
00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:00,520
Speaker 3: really did, And that's what I think was great. The

1007
00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:03,600
Speaker 3: canvas is just like all right, I mean, I can't

1008
00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:05,520
Speaker 3: really explain it to you if you don't want to

1009
00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:07,640
Speaker 3: hear what I'm saying, and Shack didn't seem to want

1010
00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:10,399
Speaker 3: to hear it, so, you know, but that's the way

1011
00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:12,520
Speaker 3: it goes, you know, with the with the older guys,

1012
00:45:12,560 --> 00:45:15,399
Speaker 3: sometimes we see that that sort of approach. But look,

1013
00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:18,880
Speaker 3: Shack's great guy, he's entertaining, he's funny, but in that

1014
00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:23,160
Speaker 3: particular moment, he didn't. It wasn't the best reflection of him.

1015
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:26,279
Speaker 1: Right, another nominee I think we could throw out. The

1016
00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:28,759
Speaker 1: referees had had a rough week tray. There was a

1017
00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:31,200
Speaker 1: lot of like, what are you doing? What is that call?

1018
00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:33,319
Speaker 1: Why are we looking at that? Why are you not

1019
00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:35,719
Speaker 1: overturning that? Why are you ejecting that guy? I mean,

1020
00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:37,680
Speaker 1: like off the top of my head, there's like three

1021
00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:39,840
Speaker 1: or four instances, right so maybe just give the officials

1022
00:45:39,880 --> 00:45:40,480
Speaker 1: worst of the week too.

1023
00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:43,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, but if we start giving the officials worst of

1024
00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:44,279
Speaker 4: the week, we're just gonna have to give it to

1025
00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:46,560
Speaker 4: him every week because they're always the worst. But yeah,

1026
00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:48,719
Speaker 4: this was a bad one. A lot of eyes on

1027
00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:53,239
Speaker 4: the refs this week in particular. Another one I saw

1028
00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:55,400
Speaker 4: that was a good worst of the week was the

1029
00:45:55,480 --> 00:46:00,239
Speaker 4: Rockets fan who ordered a Jayshawn Tate jersey. Oh for

1030
00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:01,839
Speaker 4: it to come in. It shows up and it says

1031
00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:07,239
Speaker 4: orchids love flowers, love to grow orchids. Not a big

1032
00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:10,360
Speaker 4: fan of the Houston orchids, unfortunately that's.

1033
00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:13,200
Speaker 1: How they're playing. Yeah, totally, Yeah, Okay, so there's lots

1034
00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:15,960
Speaker 1: out there. Let us know who else you would have

1035
00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:18,120
Speaker 1: for worst of the week. I think another one I

1036
00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:19,680
Speaker 1: just popped in my mind. Actually, before we move on.

1037
00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:23,120
Speaker 1: I can't stand these I'm not going to name their names.

1038
00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:26,880
Speaker 1: Some of these analysts on some of the other networks

1039
00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:29,600
Speaker 1: suddenly like just driving home, this narrative of like the

1040
00:46:29,600 --> 00:46:33,560
Speaker 1: New York Knicks should go get X, you know, Superstar X,

1041
00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:37,879
Speaker 1: Devin Booker, Damian Lillard, and it's like, what the hell

1042
00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:40,440
Speaker 1: are we talking about? Why are they doing that? Especially

1043
00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:43,200
Speaker 1: with the Knicks being good and then they're like, well, yeah,

1044
00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:45,839
Speaker 1: let's go get him or him. It's like, there's it's

1045
00:46:45,880 --> 00:46:47,799
Speaker 1: so weird to me, especially if you're a fan of

1046
00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:51,240
Speaker 1: the Suns and Booker finally winning, finally having success, Damon

1047
00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:53,120
Speaker 1: Lillard doing what he's doing in Portland. It's just like,

1048
00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:55,680
Speaker 1: I mean, it's you know what I'm talking about, people

1049
00:46:55,680 --> 00:46:57,680
Speaker 1: a saying drop their names, talking about Stephen A. Smith

1050
00:46:57,719 --> 00:47:00,279
Speaker 1: and like Jay Williams, do you think I'm talking vote?

1051
00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:05,040
Speaker 1: But it's ridiculous. It's like I hate it. I hate that.

1052
00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:07,759
Speaker 1: I mean, I get being a fan, like I'm wearing

1053
00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:09,640
Speaker 1: a Wee the No Dunk shirt. I'm a Raptors fan.

1054
00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:11,400
Speaker 1: We don't hear me going all Raptors to just go

1055
00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:13,759
Speaker 1: trade for Damian Lower. Yeah, no shit, you'd like that

1056
00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:16,680
Speaker 1: as a fan, But like, come on, man, step back

1057
00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:18,840
Speaker 1: a little bit and let them enjoy their success, what

1058
00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:20,920
Speaker 1: they're doing right now in some of their other markets.

1059
00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:23,320
Speaker 1: I just find that so weird. Especially when the Knicks

1060
00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:25,480
Speaker 1: are good and we're talking about them and they have

1061
00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:27,160
Speaker 1: an all star in Randall, what do you talk about

1062
00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:29,840
Speaker 1: him and actually watch them play and compliment them. I

1063
00:47:29,960 --> 00:47:31,960
Speaker 1: find that so weird. I don't think it's good for the.

1064
00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:34,560
Speaker 4: League personally, Trey, I'm with you, a temper boy. It's

1065
00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:37,279
Speaker 4: very inferiating that they're always like, we got to get

1066
00:47:37,320 --> 00:47:39,560
Speaker 4: these stars out of the small markets into the big

1067
00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:43,000
Speaker 4: markets New York and LA. Where are the balls? Man?

1068
00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:45,160
Speaker 4: Come on, if we're getting to be getting players to

1069
00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:48,080
Speaker 4: big markets, let's get them to Chicago, because then I

1070
00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:50,600
Speaker 4: will one d support it. But if it's getting him

1071
00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:53,279
Speaker 4: to the Knicks, the Lakers and the Clippers, no way, right? Right?

1072
00:47:53,400 --> 00:47:55,359

1077
00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:07,720
Speaker 3: It's have you seen that Curb Your Enthusiasm episode where

1078

00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:13,440
Speaker 3: like a phone call for an entire hour. And the

1080
00:48:13,480 --> 00:48:15,920
Speaker 3: guy's like, he's like, did you charge me for a

Speaker 3: who he was, but he's a well known international movie director,

1084
00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:24,520
Speaker 3: and he did direct Star Wars.

1085
00:48:26,440 --> 00:48:28,719
Speaker 1: I did do that a little bit. I don't know.

1086
00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:31,600
Speaker 1: I saw the comment. That's what triggered me. Yeah, but

1087
00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:33,959
Speaker 1: I will say I'm holding back, Oh my god.

1088
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:36,160
Speaker 3: I will say, you're right in the sense that, like,

1089
00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:39,120
Speaker 3: you know, the Knicks are no longer that, like you

1090
00:48:39,239 --> 00:48:40,919
Speaker 3: must go and play for the Knicks if you want

1091
00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:43,400
Speaker 3: to get that sort of publicity or be on that platform.

1092
00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:46,480
Speaker 3: It's not like that anymore. You know, you can you

1093
00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:48,680
Speaker 3: can be a star in any market if you if

1094

Speaker 3: you play well and you've got the right marketing behind you.

1095
00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:53,480
Speaker 3: So yeah, it's this sort of like feeling that like

1096
00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:56,480

00:48:56,520 --> 00:49:00,759

Speaker 4: It's like twelve It's like what seventeen syllables total to

1163
00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:29,640
Speaker 4: two people. Look, we didn't have a great school. Okay,

1164
00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:33,680
Speaker 4: there's a guy. You take syllables.

1165
00:52:33,120 --> 00:52:36,160
Speaker 1: Three, eight and nine and I'll I'll take from ten

1166
00:52:36,239 --> 00:52:37,600
Speaker 1: to twelve. Yeah, all right.

1167
00:52:37,640 --> 00:52:40,000
Speaker 4: We got a terrible grade on it cause here was

1168
00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:43,799
Speaker 4: our haikup wan something like this. Threw a rabbit in

1169
00:52:43,960 --> 00:52:47,920
Speaker 4: Rusty Bee's yard. I hope he's not pissed. We just

1170
00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:49,879
Speaker 4: we just put a rabbit in somebody's yard and wrote

1171
00:52:49,880 --> 00:52:50,240
Speaker 4: a poem.

1172
00:52:50,480 --> 00:52:53,000
Speaker 1: Oh through it like you actually threw the rabbit.

1173
00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:58,520
Speaker 4: I hope he's not pissed. Rusty Bee was Rusty Baker.

1174
00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:00,080
Speaker 4: I think he was the mayor of the town a

1175
00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:02,680
Speaker 4: play now at the time. Hope he's not pissed. Never

1176
00:53:02,760 --> 00:53:04,759
Speaker 4: heard back. We got a C plus not a great grade.

1177
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:07,040
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, haiku is seven five to seven?

1178
00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:08,520
Speaker 4: Right? Five seven?

1179
00:53:09,560 --> 00:53:09,680
Speaker 1: Oh?

1180
00:53:10,120 --> 00:53:12,560
Speaker 2: I thought it's five to seven five.

1181
00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:17,560
Speaker 4: Okay, I thought it was seven seven. I got a

1182
00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:21,520
Speaker 4: D on that one. Yeah, I mean, haiku's are tough.

1183
00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:23,719
Speaker 4: They make it sound easy because all you got to

1184
00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:26,000
Speaker 4: do is know the syllables. But there's some real craft

1185
00:53:26,080 --> 00:53:28,759
Speaker 4: involved with those, just like that last review was that

1186
00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:31,640
Speaker 4: was more than five stars? Wait, now it's more than

1187
00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:35,080
Speaker 4: five syllables, but it was five stars. That's five star Friday,

1188
00:53:35,080 --> 00:53:38,640
Speaker 4: your five five star reviews? That might have accidentally been

1189
00:53:38,680 --> 00:53:39,080
Speaker 4: a haiku.

1190
00:53:39,120 --> 00:53:41,240
Speaker 1: I'm not sure. Oh, I'll have to check the tape.

1191
00:53:41,719 --> 00:53:43,560
Speaker 1: All right, Well, let's uh, let's move to our next

1192
00:53:43,560 --> 00:53:45,360
Speaker 1: segment here. I'm gonna keep this intro short and sweet.

1193
00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:47,560
Speaker 1: We're sticking with t K. It's time for masterclass. When

1194
00:53:47,560 --> 00:53:57,640
Speaker 1: I learned this week Haiku's What do you got, Trey?

1195
00:53:57,680 --> 00:53:59,040
Speaker 1: What were you learning this week?

1196
00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:02,640
Speaker 4: Well, Skates, I decided for this week to pick something

1197
00:54:02,840 --> 00:54:05,520
Speaker 4: I know nothing about to see what I could learn.

1198
00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:07,120
Speaker 1: So I watched.

1199
00:54:06,840 --> 00:54:11,879
Speaker 4: Frank Gary teaches design and architecture. Guys, Big Frank Gary heads.

1200
00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:14,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, he's Canadian, isn't he?

1201
00:54:14,480 --> 00:54:17,480
Speaker 4: I believe he is Canadian American. He's He did the

1202
00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:22,000
Speaker 4: Pritzker Pavilion and the pedestrian bridge at Millennium Park in Chicago,

1203
00:54:22,080 --> 00:54:25,280
Speaker 4: where the Being is, and he did the Art Gallery

1204
00:54:25,360 --> 00:54:30,240
Speaker 4: Ontario right the AGL in Toronto time. It's a crazy

1205
00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:34,480
Speaker 4: looking building, as are most of Frank Gary's creations. So

1206
00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:36,680
Speaker 4: I watched it to see what I could glean from

1207
00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:38,400
Speaker 4: this man who was at the top of his field,

1208
00:54:39,160 --> 00:54:42,120
Speaker 4: thinking how can I be like this? And then he

1209
00:54:42,440 --> 00:54:45,880
Speaker 4: flipped it on me. No problem from Frank Gary. He says,

1210
00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:48,600
Speaker 4: it's not about trying to be like me, it's about

1211
00:54:48,640 --> 00:54:52,640
Speaker 4: trying to be like yourself. Great stuff. Be yourself. There's

1212
00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:55,160
Speaker 4: a you that's different from him or her, and it's

1213
00:54:55,200 --> 00:54:58,720
Speaker 4: worth pursuing because that's where your strongest. Make sure whatever

1214
00:54:58,760 --> 00:55:01,960
Speaker 4: you do is the best you can do. Great advice

1215
00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:05,480
Speaker 4: from Frank Gary, saying, play to your strengths, be yourself,

1216
00:55:05,840 --> 00:55:08,280
Speaker 4: and trust your instincts. I love that kind of stuff.

1217
00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:11,959
Speaker 4: He also talked about how design, how doing creative work

1218
00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:15,560
Speaker 4: is a lot like jazz. He was dropping some Wayne shorterisms.

1219
00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:19,399
Speaker 4: You can't rehearse what you haven't invented yet. Or, as

1220
00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:23,480
Speaker 4: mice Vandero said, repeat yourself. These are all great lessons

1221
00:55:23,520 --> 00:55:28,000
Speaker 4: in creativity and design. But I just think inspiration, you know, like,

1222
00:55:28,040 --> 00:55:31,080
Speaker 4: I'm never gonna go design a building. It's very unlikely

1223
00:55:31,120 --> 00:55:34,480
Speaker 4: that I'm gonna make a museum at any point. But

1224
00:55:35,520 --> 00:55:38,080
Speaker 4: we all do creative work here, so there's certainly some

1225
00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:40,120
Speaker 4: great lessons to be learned from a guy like Frank Gary,

1226
00:55:40,120 --> 00:55:41,640
Speaker 4: who has been at the top of his field for

1227
00:55:41,680 --> 00:55:45,359
Speaker 4: a long time. He says, you're always creatively blocked if

1228
00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:46,359
Speaker 4: you succumb to it.

1229
00:55:46,320 --> 00:55:47,319
Speaker 1: So forget about it.

1230
00:55:47,719 --> 00:55:49,360
Speaker 4: You don't know what the hell you're doing anyway, so

1231
00:55:49,480 --> 00:55:51,759
Speaker 4: just keep doing what you're doing and you'll figure it out.

1232
00:55:52,120 --> 00:55:55,120
Speaker 4: Great advice from Frank Gary. That's what I learned this week.

1233
00:55:55,480 --> 00:55:59,279
Speaker 1: I love that. That's actually good advice for everybody with masterclass.

1234
00:55:59,280 --> 00:56:00,879
Speaker 1: I would even say, is I think you could get

1235
00:56:00,920 --> 00:56:02,920
Speaker 1: caught up in like, well, why would I watch that.

1236
00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:04,640
Speaker 1: I'm not going to build a building, like you said,

1237
00:56:04,680 --> 00:56:06,680
Speaker 1: I have no plans to do that, But you pick

1238
00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:09,760
Speaker 1: up all these like little life nuggets from these masters

1239
00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:12,560
Speaker 1: in their class, So good stuff. I like that advice

1240
00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:14,280
Speaker 1: you just gave me. Mine for next week, I'll.

1241
00:56:14,080 --> 00:56:18,239
Speaker 3: Just say that No, exactly master class class, right, Yeah,

1242
00:56:18,280 --> 00:56:20,080
Speaker 3: my wife has watched that one as well. She thinks

1243
00:56:20,120 --> 00:56:23,759
Speaker 3: that he's incredible. Uh, just has something to do a bit.

1244
00:56:23,800 --> 00:56:25,799
Speaker 3: The hause that he designed as well, isn't it trade

1245
00:56:25,840 --> 00:56:28,719
Speaker 3: light back in the day? I thought it was ahead

1246
00:56:28,719 --> 00:56:30,120
Speaker 3: of his time. I think she was saying something that

1247
00:56:30,239 --> 00:56:31,719
Speaker 3: that I can't remember that I haven't seen it.

1248
00:56:31,800 --> 00:56:34,279
Speaker 1: But you need to take a master class on listening

1249
00:56:34,360 --> 00:56:34,880
Speaker 1: to your wife.

1250
00:56:35,200 --> 00:56:36,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, that is true.

1251
00:56:37,040 --> 00:56:39,480
Speaker 4: Well, we the great thing about master classes you don't

1252
00:56:39,520 --> 00:56:41,239
Speaker 4: have to watch it all the way through. So I

1253
00:56:41,400 --> 00:56:45,560
Speaker 4: was hopping through from chapter to chapter because you know,

1254
00:56:45,719 --> 00:56:49,720
Speaker 4: I'm trying to get the general advice from Frank Garriott.

1255
00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:51,480
Speaker 4: It does seem like there are some more stuff where

1256
00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:55,839
Speaker 4: he's talking specifically about design and architecture and actually the

1257
00:56:55,880 --> 00:56:57,879
Speaker 4: inspiration behind some of his creations.

1258
00:56:58,080 --> 00:57:01,040
Speaker 1: Okay, Lee, have you been to any Frank Arey's a

1259
00:57:01,080 --> 00:57:02,440
Speaker 1: buildings museum stuff like that.

1260
00:57:03,000 --> 00:57:06,960
Speaker 3: He designed the Guggenheim in Spain. I'm not sure if

1261
00:57:06,960 --> 00:57:08,160
Speaker 3: he did the one in New York, but I have

1262
00:57:08,239 --> 00:57:10,319
Speaker 3: been to the Guggenheim in New York. So if you

1263
00:57:10,360 --> 00:57:11,719
Speaker 3: did that one, then yes.

1264
00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:20,840
Speaker 1: That's fun. Good answer, so possibly good stuff. Tray let's

1265
00:57:20,840 --> 00:57:21,600
Speaker 1: get to tweet of the.

1270
00:57:37,480 --> 00:57:41,120
Speaker 1: of Lee and his boys traveling the globe, Big Matt included.

1271
00:57:41,200 --> 00:57:44,400
Speaker 1: We were calling them the snakes. There was twelve of them.

1272
00:57:44,480 --> 00:57:47,000
Speaker 1: They were always taking their shirts off the parties, or

1273
00:57:47,040 --> 00:57:50,200
Speaker 1: they're sleeping in places they shouldn't be. It was a blast.

1274
00:57:50,360 --> 00:57:52,919
Speaker 1: Go watch and listen to NBA Half Yard. But one

1275
00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:55,400
Speaker 1: of the photos that was shared, and we've seen it

1276
00:57:55,440 --> 00:57:59,040
Speaker 1: before was Lee in his du Ray and I said

1277
00:57:59,120 --> 00:58:02,600
Speaker 1: with the photo, man, that looks like an incredible like

1278
00:58:02,640 --> 00:58:05,720
Speaker 1: this is scary hours too to me really, And I said,

1279
00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:08,400
Speaker 1: put the parental advisory sticker on there, and so Mark

1280
00:58:08,440 --> 00:58:10,400
Speaker 1: Shaw will come through real quickly if you know, you know,

1281
00:58:10,600 --> 00:58:14,920
Speaker 1: as he says, that is from left to right, leols

1282
00:58:15,320 --> 00:58:18,320
Speaker 1: Big Mat with maybe a couple of ice that some

1283
00:58:18,360 --> 00:58:21,360
Speaker 1: woman threw in his cup. And then uh uh, well, looky,

1284
00:58:21,440 --> 00:58:23,720
Speaker 1: I call him Trig, but some people call him Andy

1285
00:58:23,920 --> 00:58:24,600
Speaker 1: or even Andrew.

1286
00:58:27,400 --> 00:58:30,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's from Kensington Oval in Barbados. The first day

1287
00:58:30,760 --> 00:58:33,040
Speaker 3: of the Test match and yeah.

1288
00:58:32,600 --> 00:58:35,280
Speaker 1: And we did learn you were wearing that like all

1289
00:58:35,320 --> 00:58:37,720
Speaker 1: week long, said Big Matt, like you wore it everywhere?

1290
00:58:37,880 --> 00:58:43,720
Speaker 3: Yes, yes I did. Yes, yeah, fast decision.

1291
00:58:44,000 --> 00:58:44,360
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1292
00:58:44,440 --> 00:58:46,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's funny because it's you sort of have to

1293
00:58:46,840 --> 00:58:49,000
Speaker 3: learn to tie it properly as well. Like it's not

1294
00:58:49,040 --> 00:58:50,240
Speaker 3: like a hat you just put it on and it

1295
00:58:50,280 --> 00:58:51,840
Speaker 3: does it itself. You have to tie it up properly

1296
00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:54,760
Speaker 3: and then keep it tight. And uh yeah, it was

1297
00:58:54,760 --> 00:58:55,640
Speaker 3: a fun experience.

1298
00:58:56,760 --> 00:59:01,320
Speaker 1: Yeah. Okay, that's Leroy there in the Dora. So go

1299
00:59:01,400 --> 00:59:03,040
Speaker 1: check out the NBA Happy Our thanks to the air

1300
00:59:03,040 --> 00:59:06,600
Speaker 1: Graphic Underscore Underscore mark the double underscore always catches you

1301
00:59:06,640 --> 00:59:09,400
Speaker 1: by surprise. Okay, pick The results last night not good

1302
00:59:09,400 --> 00:59:13,080
Speaker 1: for Ley and I Leroy. We had the Pelicans to cover.

1303
00:59:13,160 --> 00:59:14,480
Speaker 1: They had to win by four and more. They obviously

1304
00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:16,720
Speaker 1: lost to Jimmy Button Jimmy play. That was the thing

1305
00:59:16,760 --> 00:59:18,600
Speaker 1: we didn't know. It is Jimmy gunplay Jimmy unplay. He

1306
00:59:18,680 --> 00:59:21,600
Speaker 1: plays uh and Zimon Williamson did not. So that didn't

1307
00:59:21,680 --> 00:59:23,800
Speaker 1: hurt or that did not help our chances of winning this.

1308
00:59:23,960 --> 00:59:26,160
Speaker 1: So we're one and three, we're in dead last task

1309
00:59:26,200 --> 00:59:28,160
Speaker 1: and Trey running away from us. Already, Tass is still

1310
00:59:28,160 --> 00:59:30,160
Speaker 1: perfect four and taking the heat trace three and one.

1311
00:59:30,600 --> 00:59:32,760
Speaker 1: We're gonna go with the All Star Game. No games

1312
00:59:32,760 --> 00:59:34,800
Speaker 1: on tonight, but we got the line for the All

1313
00:59:34,800 --> 00:59:39,720
Speaker 1: Star Game. It's Lebron versus Katie. Team Lebrons Team Team Durant.

1314
00:59:40,400 --> 00:59:43,280
Speaker 1: Lebron's team favored by three and a half. Though they're

1315
00:59:43,320 --> 00:59:46,240
Speaker 1: technically on the road, I guess I think they're wearing

1316
00:59:46,280 --> 00:59:48,960
Speaker 1: the yellow jerseys too, by the looks by the set up,

1317
00:59:49,520 --> 00:59:52,480
Speaker 1: I think Lebron's in yellow and Team Durant is in blue.

1318
00:59:53,800 --> 00:59:55,200
Speaker 1: Tass just told me I don't think we have a

1319
00:59:55,280 --> 00:59:57,600
Speaker 1: video package of his pick, but Task said he is

1320
00:59:57,640 --> 00:59:59,960
Speaker 1: taking Lebron. He actually has a he explained in which

1321
01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:02,120
Speaker 1: need to know five reasons why he's taking Team Lebron.

1322
01:00:02,320 --> 01:00:04,440
Speaker 1: Drake included it was one of his reasons. I couldn't

1323
01:00:04,440 --> 01:00:07,200
Speaker 1: believe it, and Space James go check out out. So

1324
01:00:07,320 --> 01:00:09,880
Speaker 1: Tas has Team Lebron by three and a half. Trey,

1325
01:00:09,880 --> 01:00:10,439
Speaker 1: where are you going?

1326
01:00:12,520 --> 01:00:14,280
Speaker 4: I mean, you really threw me for a loop there,

1327
01:00:14,320 --> 01:00:16,280
Speaker 4: Skeets when you mentioned that this is a road game

1328
01:00:16,320 --> 01:00:18,320
Speaker 4: for Team Lebron. So I think I'm gonna have to

1329
01:00:18,320 --> 01:00:21,680
Speaker 4: go with Team KD Here even though he's not playing.

1330
01:00:21,800 --> 01:00:22,840
Speaker 1: It's an elam ending.

1331
01:00:22,960 --> 01:00:25,200
Speaker 4: I'm just assuming it's going to be closer at the

1332
01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:27,320
Speaker 4: end the way it was last year, coming down to

1333
01:00:27,400 --> 01:00:29,640
Speaker 4: kind of the final possession. So give me Katie to

1334
01:00:29,680 --> 01:00:30,840
Speaker 4: at least keep it close.

1335
01:00:31,440 --> 01:00:33,680
Speaker 1: Okay, Lee, I mean that's good reasoning. Do you think

1336
01:00:33,680 --> 01:00:35,960
Speaker 1: this will just be close enough for Katie Team kat

1337
01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:38,640
Speaker 1: to to you know, cover or maybe even win.

1338
01:00:38,920 --> 01:00:41,720
Speaker 3: Yeah. Two of the last three years it's been three

1339
01:00:41,760 --> 01:00:46,440
Speaker 3: points or less, you know, and it's an old start game, honestly,

1340
01:00:46,520 --> 01:00:48,640
Speaker 3: like you could set the line at ten if you want.

1341
01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:51,680
Speaker 3: It doesn't really matter. But I will take Team Lebron

1342
01:00:51,720 --> 01:00:55,760
Speaker 3: just because I've picked Giannis to win MVP, and I

1343
01:00:55,840 --> 01:00:57,480
Speaker 3: mean four points, Yeah why not?

1344
01:00:58,000 --> 01:00:58,240
Speaker 2: Okay?

1345
01:00:58,280 --> 01:01:01,960
Speaker 1: Sure, so Tass and Lee taking Team Lebrondo win by

1346
01:01:02,040 --> 01:01:04,880
Speaker 1: four or more, I'm signing with TK. I'm gonna go

1347
01:01:04,880 --> 01:01:07,080
Speaker 1: with Katie maybe a part of it because I have

1348
01:01:07,160 --> 01:01:09,840
Speaker 1: Booker as my wild card All Star game MVP, so

1349
01:01:10,120 --> 01:01:12,080
Speaker 1: hopefully they keep it close enough. We're split on that one.

1350
01:01:12,120 --> 01:01:13,600
Speaker 1: Let's hear from you guys, but do you like winning

1351
01:01:13,600 --> 01:01:16,360
Speaker 1: that game? We're gonna wrap up the Drop podcast here,

1352
01:01:17,040 --> 01:01:19,400
Speaker 1: wrap up another busy week. But before we go GD

1353
01:01:19,520 --> 01:01:22,200
Speaker 1: you have the honors man to ask some rapid fire questions.

1354
01:01:22,400 --> 01:01:26,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, the ringers. Rob Mahoney tweeted an outtake from an

1355
01:01:26,160 --> 01:01:29,760
Speaker 2: article he wrote about how NBA players are expert room

1356
01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:35,840
Speaker 2: service orderers. Apparently Robin Lopez used to absolutely hate beats,

1357
01:01:36,240 --> 01:01:39,400
Speaker 2: Now he loves them. Sounds like he's warming up to

1358
01:01:39,480 --> 01:01:42,840
Speaker 2: avocados too. Quote. I'm from California, so it might be

1359
01:01:42,960 --> 01:01:47,120
Speaker 2: kind of surprising, but I always disliked avocados, and I'm

1360
01:01:47,160 --> 01:01:49,760
Speaker 2: starting to kind of get into avocados a little bit,

1361
01:01:50,560 --> 01:01:53,280
Speaker 2: just kind of dipping my toes in. So who knows

1362
01:01:53,280 --> 01:01:55,240
Speaker 2: where I'll be in a year Guaca bowl?

1363
01:01:55,840 --> 01:01:57,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, who knows?

1364
01:01:57,320 --> 01:02:00,200
Speaker 2: That's where he's added. For sure, what's something that took

1365
01:02:00,360 --> 01:02:01,840
Speaker 2: you a long time to wore them up to?

1366
01:02:02,240 --> 01:02:07,760
Speaker 1: Skeets short and sweet here, home ownership? For sure. I

1367
01:02:07,800 --> 01:02:10,720
Speaker 1: did not see myself owning a home. I wanted nothing

1368
01:02:10,760 --> 01:02:13,600
Speaker 1: to do with that. I was perfectly fine thinking I

1369
01:02:13,640 --> 01:02:15,440
Speaker 1: was going to be that weirdo that just rented his

1370
01:02:15,640 --> 01:02:19,320
Speaker 1: entire life. Ah, but of course, Norah, she got me.

1371
01:02:19,720 --> 01:02:23,560
Speaker 1: We eventually got a home almost a year now, coming

1372
01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:25,760
Speaker 1: up here in April was when we took ownership. So

1373
01:02:25,800 --> 01:02:29,080
Speaker 1: we're getting pretty close. But now I'm extatic. Now I

1374
01:02:29,120 --> 01:02:31,960
Speaker 1: love having a home, love having a yard. Obviously added

1375
01:02:31,960 --> 01:02:34,880
Speaker 1: the dog to the mix. The French drain as well,

1376
01:02:35,520 --> 01:02:37,400
Speaker 1: the French drain. Now and see, now I got big

1377
01:02:37,440 --> 01:02:40,160
Speaker 1: plans for the back because this guy might be putting

1378
01:02:40,160 --> 01:02:43,000
Speaker 1: down some stones. Gotta get a fire flow. Yeah, well

1379
01:02:43,040 --> 01:02:44,960
Speaker 1: seeah see, but I'm all in. But it took me

1380
01:02:44,960 --> 01:02:49,920
Speaker 1: a while. It took me almost forty years. But here

1381
01:02:49,960 --> 01:02:52,840
Speaker 1: I am tipping my toe in the home ownership toe.

1382
01:02:52,880 --> 01:02:54,440
Speaker 1: I'll probably buy a hotel.

1383
01:02:57,160 --> 01:02:57,440
Speaker 2: Lately.

1384
01:02:58,120 --> 01:03:00,040
Speaker 3: A little bit similar hit a rubbin ldpez. When I

1385
01:03:00,040 --> 01:03:03,480
Speaker 3: first started dating my now wife, Roxanna, who's from Peru,

1386
01:03:03,640 --> 01:03:06,240
Speaker 3: she started to cooking me some traditional Peruvian dishes, and

1387
01:03:06,280 --> 01:03:08,959
Speaker 3: one was lamos altato, which is like a beef stir fry.

1388
01:03:08,960 --> 01:03:11,919
Speaker 3: Another one's ahid gaya, which is like a chicken sort

1389
01:03:11,920 --> 01:03:14,880
Speaker 3: of stewish type one. So steak and chicken to start with,

1390
01:03:14,960 --> 01:03:17,160
Speaker 3: you know, not too bad, pretty easy on the old palate.

1391
01:03:17,640 --> 01:03:19,640
Speaker 3: And then she hit me with a civic, which is

1392
01:03:19,680 --> 01:03:23,680
Speaker 3: like basically a raw fish sort of dish with lime

1393
01:03:23,760 --> 01:03:25,920
Speaker 3: and lemon juice and salt and pepper. Coriander is a

1394
01:03:25,920 --> 01:03:27,680
Speaker 3: big one as well, and was not a big fan

1395
01:03:27,720 --> 01:03:31,120
Speaker 3: of coriander, so I was like, h this one is

1396
01:03:31,160 --> 01:03:33,080
Speaker 3: gonna test me. I mean she softened me up a

1397
01:03:33,080 --> 01:03:36,360
Speaker 3: little bit here with the two really good ones. Now,

1398
01:03:36,520 --> 01:03:40,880
Speaker 3: whenever we go to Lima, I must have service, like

1399
01:03:40,960 --> 01:03:43,000
Speaker 3: every second or third day it is.

1400
01:03:45,680 --> 01:03:46,640
Speaker 2: I must have it.

1401
01:03:47,480 --> 01:03:48,880
Speaker 1: Walk in with that dog.

1402
01:03:49,840 --> 01:03:55,520
Speaker 3: Get this, I'm telling you. When it is done properly,

1403
01:03:55,640 --> 01:04:00,240
Speaker 3: it is just incredibly good. So sevy chair, how are

1404
01:04:00,280 --> 01:04:00,560
Speaker 3: you eat?

1405
01:04:00,960 --> 01:04:04,000
Speaker 2: Do you ever buy it on the street like street street?

1406
01:04:04,960 --> 01:04:05,160
Speaker 7: No?

1407
01:04:05,360 --> 01:04:07,840
Speaker 3: I don't buy too much food on the street down

1408
01:04:07,840 --> 01:04:08,320
Speaker 3: in Lima.

1409
01:04:08,960 --> 01:04:09,760
Speaker 1: I have to be honest.

1410
01:04:09,840 --> 01:04:12,800
Speaker 3: I get treated like royalty down there because now especially

1411
01:04:12,800 --> 01:04:15,680
Speaker 3: with the kids, so for Grandma and the cousins, they're

1412
01:04:15,720 --> 01:04:18,400
Speaker 3: all playing with the kids. We always eat really really well.

1413
01:04:18,440 --> 01:04:19,720
Speaker 3: I don't have a lot to do down there. I

1414
01:04:19,760 --> 01:04:21,760
Speaker 3: just get to enjoy myself and eat all the time.

1415
01:04:21,880 --> 01:04:24,680
Speaker 3: So yeah, it's Peruvian food.

1416
01:04:24,880 --> 01:04:25,400
Speaker 1: Underrated.

1417
01:04:25,480 --> 01:04:26,600
Speaker 3: I'm very underrated.

1418
01:04:27,320 --> 01:04:28,040
Speaker 4: Some is good.

1419
01:04:28,040 --> 01:04:29,000
Speaker 1: Are you eat them with chips?

1420
01:04:29,160 --> 01:04:29,240
Speaker 4: Like?

1421
01:04:29,280 --> 01:04:30,720
Speaker 1: What do you eat a fork?

1422
01:04:31,640 --> 01:04:31,880
Speaker 5: Yeah?

1423
01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:34,200
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, sometimes how are you getting in your

1424
01:04:34,200 --> 01:04:34,680
Speaker 1: mouth as well?

1425
01:04:34,800 --> 01:04:36,680
Speaker 3: Sometimes there's chips there. But I do tend to just

1426
01:04:36,720 --> 01:04:38,560
Speaker 3: go with a fork on a plate, and just like

1427
01:04:38,640 --> 01:04:40,600
Speaker 3: everyone leave me alone. I'm just eating. I don't want

1428
01:04:40,600 --> 01:04:42,160
Speaker 3: to talk. I don't want to be social. I just

1429
01:04:42,160 --> 01:04:43,040
Speaker 3: want to enjoy this.

1430
01:04:45,960 --> 01:04:47,479
Speaker 1: No, I'm bling, No, I'm blaying.

1431
01:04:47,600 --> 01:04:49,600
Speaker 7: Daniel end Or.

1432
01:04:56,800 --> 01:05:00,840
Speaker 4: For me, it's a weighted blanket. I had a weighted

1433
01:05:00,840 --> 01:05:05,320
Speaker 4: blanket first, I don't know, fifteen or twelve pounds, and

1434
01:05:05,400 --> 01:05:08,760
Speaker 4: for me, it was it was almost an impediment cuddling

1435
01:05:08,840 --> 01:05:12,720
Speaker 4: at first because once you put down that the weighted

1436
01:05:12,760 --> 01:05:14,280
Speaker 4: blanket on her side of the bed, it was only

1437
01:05:14,280 --> 01:05:16,600
Speaker 4: covering her side of the bed, so we kind of

1438
01:05:16,600 --> 01:05:19,000
Speaker 4: like close off her area because it's like it's like

1439
01:05:19,040 --> 01:05:21,560
Speaker 4: a drawbridge, right, And I was like, it's so heavy,

1440
01:05:21,600 --> 01:05:24,120
Speaker 4: I can't get underneath the sheets to kind of cuddle her.

1441
01:05:25,280 --> 01:05:27,640
Speaker 4: But you know, we would. I would get under there,

1442
01:05:27,720 --> 01:05:30,320
Speaker 4: get my arms crushed by her tiny little weighted blanket,

1443
01:05:30,360 --> 01:05:32,440
Speaker 4: cuddle her up. Then we go our separate ways for

1444
01:05:32,480 --> 01:05:35,320
Speaker 4: the sleeping of the night. But she got me my

1445
01:05:35,480 --> 01:05:39,160
Speaker 4: own weighted blanket. Oh my birthday, twenty pounds. This thing

1446
01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:42,240
Speaker 4: is heavy. Throw it on the bed at two in

1447
01:05:42,280 --> 01:05:46,200
Speaker 4: the morning, boom hop underneath. It feels like you're always

1448
01:05:46,240 --> 01:05:49,560
Speaker 4: getting like a like an X ray at the dentist.

1449
01:05:49,640 --> 01:05:51,920
Speaker 4: Those things are so heavy, but I love the feel

1450
01:05:51,920 --> 01:05:53,960
Speaker 4: of it. Now sleeps so good with a weighted blanket.

1451
01:05:53,960 --> 01:05:54,800
Speaker 4: I'm one hundred percent in.

1452
01:05:55,880 --> 01:05:59,920
Speaker 2: Aren't you boiling? Though? I mean, yeah, I don't know.

1453
01:06:00,120 --> 01:06:02,520
Speaker 4: I think my basement is cold. You know, we're in

1454
01:06:02,560 --> 01:06:06,080
Speaker 4: the ground. So for now, I'm fine with it. Will

1455
01:06:06,080 --> 01:06:08,000
Speaker 4: I continue in the summer, doubtful.

1456
01:06:08,360 --> 01:06:10,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I got a way to blank I had a

1457
01:06:10,280 --> 01:06:12,400
Speaker 3: nightmare at the first night like that. I was trapped

1458
01:06:12,440 --> 01:06:13,000
Speaker 3: because I just.

1459
01:06:13,360 --> 01:06:15,479
Speaker 4: Couldn't move sure, sure, and I was like, what's going

1460
01:06:15,520 --> 01:06:15,880
Speaker 4: on here?

1461
01:06:16,840 --> 01:06:17,240
Speaker 1: I couldn't.

1462
01:06:17,280 --> 01:06:19,000
Speaker 3: I stuck it out for a month or so, but

1463
01:06:19,040 --> 01:06:21,080
Speaker 3: then I just got just couldn't stay with it. But

1464
01:06:21,280 --> 01:06:22,720
Speaker 3: maybe I'll bring it back now after.

1465
01:06:22,560 --> 01:06:25,840
Speaker 1: You people slept with them, and I actually just sort

1466
01:06:25,880 --> 01:06:28,120
Speaker 1: of thought they were like for the couch, you know.

1467
01:06:28,400 --> 01:06:31,600
Speaker 1: I hadn't even thought about people actually, yeah, sleeping with them.

1468
01:06:31,720 --> 01:06:35,240
Speaker 1: But I get it. People like that cocoon feeling. Yeah,

1469
01:06:35,280 --> 01:06:36,280
Speaker 1: the cocoon feeling.

1470
01:06:36,400 --> 01:06:40,240
Speaker 4: And I think, I don't know, I'm a pretty RESTful

1471
01:06:40,240 --> 01:06:42,320
Speaker 4: sleeper in general, but if you're not a RESTful sleeper,

1472
01:06:42,360 --> 01:06:45,720
Speaker 4: I think that the extra weight kind of you know, exactly,

1473
01:06:45,760 --> 01:06:46,680
Speaker 4: just moving a little bit more.

1474
01:06:46,760 --> 01:06:46,960
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1475
01:06:48,080 --> 01:06:52,240
Speaker 2: Crazy. This next one is from Dan in Cleveden, England.

1476
01:06:52,640 --> 01:06:54,520
Speaker 2: First time, long time, I have been one of the

1477
01:06:54,600 --> 01:06:56,760
Speaker 2: lucky ones who have been able to continue working through

1478
01:06:56,760 --> 01:07:00,360
Speaker 2: the pandemic. Although I really hate working from home, as

1479
01:07:00,400 --> 01:07:03,040
Speaker 2: I'm sure everyone does, it is it has allowed me

1480
01:07:03,160 --> 01:07:07,280
Speaker 2: to finally catch up on your long Happy Hour episodes

1481
01:07:07,280 --> 01:07:11,280
Speaker 2: on YouTube. My question what is something you do which

1482
01:07:11,280 --> 01:07:13,720
Speaker 2: you dislike but at the same time it means you

1483
01:07:13,760 --> 01:07:16,640
Speaker 2: get to do something you do like skeets.

1484
01:07:16,560 --> 01:07:20,320
Speaker 1: Well, sticking with my home ownership theme here, my backyard

1485
01:07:20,400 --> 01:07:25,080
Speaker 1: right now is littered with these sweet gumballs, you know

1486
01:07:25,080 --> 01:07:28,880
Speaker 1: what I'm talking about, Like those little those little balls

1487
01:07:28,920 --> 01:07:33,040
Speaker 1: are like super prickly looking. They're just dangerous because like

1488
01:07:33,080 --> 01:07:35,960
Speaker 1: you can roll an ankle on them like so easily,

1489
01:07:36,480 --> 01:07:38,360
Speaker 1: and they're everywhere because we obviously have a tree here

1490
01:07:38,360 --> 01:07:41,120
Speaker 1: in the backyard. So I got tired of it. I

1491
01:07:41,160 --> 01:07:43,200
Speaker 1: want to start, you know, using out the weather's turn here,

1492
01:07:43,240 --> 01:07:44,280
Speaker 1: and I like, I don't want to, of course, start

1493
01:07:44,360 --> 01:07:46,200
Speaker 1: using the backyard more in the back deck. So I

1494
01:07:46,240 --> 01:07:48,560
Speaker 1: was like, all right, I'm gonna go rake these They're.

1495
01:07:48,320 --> 01:07:49,640
Speaker 2: A pain in the aster.

1496
01:07:49,840 --> 01:07:54,040
Speaker 1: Rake Oh my god. So I found myself basically just

1497
01:07:54,080 --> 01:07:58,520
Speaker 1: getting down on all fours kicking them. My own CD

1498
01:07:58,680 --> 01:08:03,640
Speaker 1: is kicking in hardcore. But I mean I hated it.

1499
01:08:03,720 --> 01:08:06,760
Speaker 1: I mean I was doing a number on my back obviously,

1500
01:08:06,840 --> 01:08:10,400
Speaker 1: and it's a you know, a boring ass job, but

1501
01:08:10,640 --> 01:08:12,439
Speaker 1: I wanted to do it. But the reason I didn't

1502
01:08:12,440 --> 01:08:15,160
Speaker 1: mind it is I love to be outside. I absolutely

1503
01:08:15,280 --> 01:08:17,160
Speaker 1: love you outside, especially at the weather right now. So

1504
01:08:17,240 --> 01:08:19,920
Speaker 1: it was like, you know what, this sucks, but I

1505
01:08:19,960 --> 01:08:21,880
Speaker 1: want to get it done, and who cares. Ultimately I'm

1506
01:08:21,880 --> 01:08:25,040
Speaker 1: outside sunshine. You know, it's beautiful out. So yeah, but

1507
01:08:25,320 --> 01:08:27,920
Speaker 1: they're they're a pain in the ass. I gotta talk

1508
01:08:27,960 --> 01:08:31,000
Speaker 1: to Felix about some way to take care of these, maybe,

1509
01:08:31,040 --> 01:08:33,599
Speaker 1: like like the you know, they come and they blow

1510
01:08:33,640 --> 01:08:35,200
Speaker 1: all the leaves and stuff like that, so I guess

1511
01:08:35,200 --> 01:08:36,840
Speaker 1: you can theory and theory blow them, but they sort

1512
01:08:36,840 --> 01:08:38,599
Speaker 1: of embed themselves in the ground a little bit.

1513
01:08:38,960 --> 01:08:41,479
Speaker 2: You need like a like a lint roller for your lawn.

1514
01:08:41,640 --> 01:08:46,080
Speaker 1: Yes, totally, man. They're actually sort of fun to put

1515
01:08:46,080 --> 01:08:48,360
Speaker 1: on gloves and pick up because they do start to

1516
01:08:48,400 --> 01:08:51,120
Speaker 1: link together. You can like get a whole bunch in

1517
01:08:51,160 --> 01:08:53,160
Speaker 1: your hand and then like you know, throw them into

1518
01:08:54,040 --> 01:08:55,800
Speaker 1: either you can compost them, and they take a while

1519
01:08:55,800 --> 01:08:58,640
Speaker 1: to compost. They're good mulch though apparently too. But I

1520
01:08:58,720 --> 01:08:59,679
Speaker 1: just throw them over the fence.

1521
01:09:02,080 --> 01:09:04,920
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I was gonna say, that's why I'm your neighbors,

1522
01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:06,200
Speaker 3: just throwing them straight back over.

1523
01:09:08,120 --> 01:09:11,559
Speaker 1: Talking like development land fence. There's gonna be a lot

1524
01:09:11,560 --> 01:09:14,280
Speaker 1: of gumballs growing out. I'm probably making it worse, actually.

1525
01:09:14,160 --> 01:09:15,759
Speaker 2: Think about it. Yeah, you're going to have a million

1526
01:09:15,760 --> 01:09:17,160
Speaker 2: of those trees back there, you know.

1527
01:09:18,960 --> 01:09:22,080
Speaker 3: Yeah. So this quarantine situation has been great because I've

1528
01:09:22,120 --> 01:09:24,320
Speaker 3: been able to spend a whole lot more time with

1529
01:09:24,360 --> 01:09:26,439
Speaker 3: my boys. But there are times where we all get

1530
01:09:26,439 --> 01:09:28,240
Speaker 3: on each other's nerves just a little bit.

1531
01:09:28,360 --> 01:09:29,120
Speaker 1: We need a break.

1532
01:09:29,720 --> 01:09:31,479
Speaker 3: But also, as a parent, you're always trying to sort

1533
01:09:31,520 --> 01:09:34,120
Speaker 3: of teach your kids sort of basics in life, the fundamentals,

1534
01:09:34,160 --> 01:09:36,200
Speaker 3: the chores, you know, washing of the dishes, you know,

1535
01:09:36,240 --> 01:09:39,040
Speaker 3: the cleaning of your bedroom and doing your laundry. And

1536
01:09:39,080 --> 01:09:41,720
Speaker 3: so often when there's laundry to be done and we

1537
01:09:41,800 --> 01:09:43,599
Speaker 3: do one big load for both boys, there's a ton

1538
01:09:43,680 --> 01:09:45,320
Speaker 3: up there. So I always say, come on, you boys

1539
01:09:45,360 --> 01:09:46,920
Speaker 3: can learn how to fold your laundry and put it

1540
01:09:46,960 --> 01:09:49,360
Speaker 3: away and all that. But there are times where I

1541
01:09:49,400 --> 01:09:51,439
Speaker 3: say to them, I offer it to them and I say,

1542
01:09:51,439 --> 01:09:52,880
Speaker 3: do you guys want to come and do your laundry?

1543
01:09:52,880 --> 01:09:55,320
Speaker 3: And they always just either ignore me or just flat

1544
01:09:55,360 --> 01:09:58,280
Speaker 3: out no. So I go upstairs and do the laundry

1545
01:09:58,360 --> 01:10:00,639
Speaker 3: by myself. I don't like doing it, but at least

1546
01:10:00,640 --> 01:10:06,240
Speaker 3: I get a little bit of quiet, so it's like, Okay,

1547
01:10:06,600 --> 01:10:08,640
Speaker 3: you guys don't have to do it today. I'll just

1548
01:10:08,640 --> 01:10:10,479
Speaker 3: do it, and I'll take an hour and a half

1549
01:10:10,600 --> 01:10:12,280
Speaker 3: up you. I might even have a little nap on

1550
01:10:12,280 --> 01:10:13,200
Speaker 3: the bed while I'm up you.

1551
01:10:13,320 --> 01:10:15,200
Speaker 4: But Dad's been.

1552
01:10:15,120 --> 01:10:16,479
Speaker 1: Folding for a long time.

1553
01:10:18,960 --> 01:10:20,240
Speaker 2: He's very thorough.

1554
01:10:23,560 --> 01:10:28,120
Speaker 4: I hate lotion. Lotion sucks to me. But I love swimming.

1555
01:10:28,240 --> 01:10:30,599
Speaker 4: I love seaball season, love being out in the sun.

1556
01:10:31,040 --> 01:10:35,160
Speaker 4: Gotta wear sunscreen. Cell unfortunately got a lotion up, but

1557
01:10:35,640 --> 01:10:38,599
Speaker 4: I just hate the feel of it on my skin.

1558
01:10:39,000 --> 01:10:41,760
Speaker 4: But specifically, I feel like when I put any sort

1559
01:10:41,760 --> 01:10:44,880
Speaker 4: of lotion on, even if I wash my hands immediately after,

1560
01:10:45,160 --> 01:10:47,280
Speaker 4: it feels like I just put lotion on my hands.

1561
01:10:47,479 --> 01:10:49,080
Speaker 4: I don't know. I don't know about you guys, but

1562
01:10:49,080 --> 01:10:51,639
Speaker 4: I like my hands to feel dry. I would rather

1563
01:10:51,680 --> 01:10:54,840
Speaker 4: than feel almost painfully dry than any sort of lotion

1564
01:10:54,920 --> 01:10:55,280
Speaker 4: on them.

1565
01:10:55,320 --> 01:11:00,200
Speaker 2: Totally, totally, it's good one all right. Finally, guys, our

1566
01:11:00,320 --> 01:11:02,519
Speaker 2: very first bean week is wrapping out.

1567
01:11:02,600 --> 01:11:03,320
Speaker 1: What a success.

1568
01:11:03,520 --> 01:11:07,360
Speaker 2: It's been a smashing success. We spread some great bean

1569
01:11:07,439 --> 01:11:10,880
Speaker 2: awareness and we really didn't mention farts all that much.

1570
01:11:11,240 --> 01:11:15,160
Speaker 2: That's amazing restraint on our parts. So handshakes all around, guys.

1571
01:11:15,400 --> 01:11:17,720
Speaker 2: But now I feel like we have a bit of

1572
01:11:17,800 --> 01:11:20,719
Speaker 2: trapped wind. So hit me with your best fart story.

1573
01:11:20,880 --> 01:11:24,599
Speaker 1: Skeets, Gdi, you did this to yourself? Man, lose this question.

1574
01:11:25,040 --> 01:11:29,800
Speaker 1: Mine's very simple. I believe my buddy dub first witnessed

1575
01:11:31,240 --> 01:11:33,960
Speaker 1: this fart that I executed. I have no idea why

1576
01:11:34,000 --> 01:11:35,840
Speaker 1: to this day that I decided to do it, but

1577
01:11:35,920 --> 01:11:37,680
Speaker 1: I was walking with him. I'm pretty sure it was

1578
01:11:37,760 --> 01:11:39,840
Speaker 1: Dubbed just down the street somewhere, I think it was

1579
01:11:39,880 --> 01:11:43,240
Speaker 1: maybe in Toronto, and I said, hey, watch this, jumped

1580
01:11:43,280 --> 01:11:46,280
Speaker 1: in the air, did a three sixty jump fart and

1581
01:11:47,400 --> 01:11:52,160
Speaker 1: he was oppressed. And then I made it my thing,

1582
01:11:52,320 --> 01:11:56,439
Speaker 1: like you know, whenever you're out. We got a little

1583
01:11:56,520 --> 01:11:58,519
Speaker 1: room to operate, and I feel one coming on, I'll

1584
01:11:58,520 --> 01:12:04,320
Speaker 1: do a three sixty jump fart looks then sounds funny. Answer,

1585
01:12:06,120 --> 01:12:07,599
Speaker 1: it's my signature for it, for sure.

1586
01:12:07,840 --> 01:12:13,280
Speaker 2: That's great, and the velocity just spread it around. That's great, Lely.

1587
01:12:13,560 --> 01:12:17,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I had a couple to choose from. Yeah, I'll

1588
01:12:17,360 --> 01:12:19,439
Speaker 3: go with this one. Well, I was I was in London.

1589
01:12:19,479 --> 01:12:21,479
Speaker 3: I was coming home from work on a Friday afternoon.

1590
01:12:21,560 --> 01:12:24,160
Speaker 3: I've been out on the Thursday evening and I was

1591
01:12:24,160 --> 01:12:25,360
Speaker 3: on the Tube and I was on one of the

1592
01:12:25,360 --> 01:12:27,479
Speaker 3: old tubes in London where they still had the old

1593
01:12:28,080 --> 01:12:29,920
Speaker 3: old windows that you can open. On the youtubes, you

1594
01:12:29,960 --> 01:12:32,760
Speaker 3: can't really open the windows anyway. As I always would do,

1595
01:12:32,800 --> 01:12:34,880
Speaker 3: I pick up the Evening Standard and do the crossword

1596
01:12:34,880 --> 01:12:37,280
Speaker 3: on the way home. And it was summer, and so

1597
01:12:37,320 --> 01:12:39,200
Speaker 3: I started doing the crossword and I felt a little,

1598
01:12:39,600 --> 01:12:42,640
Speaker 3: you know, gassie. So I let one slip out and

1599
01:12:42,680 --> 01:12:46,559
Speaker 3: it must have carried into this into the into the

1600
01:12:46,640 --> 01:12:49,120
Speaker 3: train carriage there, because all of a sudden I hear

1601
01:12:49,160 --> 01:12:55,400
Speaker 3: this dad just like Jesus Christ, who was that?

1602
01:12:55,880 --> 01:12:58,599
Speaker 7: And he was looking around and he turned on his

1603
01:12:58,640 --> 01:13:01,080
Speaker 7: own son, who was like hey, and was at you.

1604
01:13:04,040 --> 01:13:09,200
Speaker 7: He's like, no, Danny's I've told you about that, and

1605
01:13:09,240 --> 01:13:11,160
Speaker 7: he's like someone opened the window.

1606
01:13:12,439 --> 01:13:18,320
Speaker 3: I just continue doing my crossword with cartage ensure, and

1607
01:13:18,360 --> 01:13:21,240
Speaker 3: the guy, just like his son was like pleading with

1608
01:13:21,280 --> 01:13:21,639
Speaker 3: his dad.

1609
01:13:21,680 --> 01:13:23,720
Speaker 1: It wasn't me. It wasn't me. His dad would not

1610
01:13:23,840 --> 01:13:27,320
Speaker 1: believe him at all. We're in public, you know.

1611
01:13:28,120 --> 01:13:28,680
Speaker 2: Wow.

1612
01:13:29,280 --> 01:13:31,920
Speaker 1: It was like next level snow piercer here.

1613
01:13:37,200 --> 01:13:39,720
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, I mean I sort of wanted to step in,

01:13:47,479 --> 01:13:48,799
Speaker 4: the grown man who fighted.

1617
01:13:51,840 --> 01:13:54,640
Speaker 2: He just left that kid there, hung him out to

Speaker 3: it was going. Really, I mean, had a long way

1621
01:13:59,160 --> 01:14:01,840
Speaker 3: to go. My stop was for like Tins. I was like, oh,

Speaker 1: Grown up while doing a crossword. Yeah, exactly, Trent.

1625
01:14:15,240 --> 01:14:19,439
Speaker 4: While I vividly remember my greatest fart from my three

Speaker 4: friend groups from my wife, one was a Friday in

1628
01:14:26,520 --> 01:14:30,040
Speaker 4: chatting with the football bros. The loudest fart I've ever

1629
01:14:30,080 --> 01:14:32,240
Speaker 4: had in my life to this day. And I guess

1630

1677
01:17:04,680 --> 01:17:06,599
Speaker 3: You know, I don't recline on those, and so I

1678
01:17:06,640 --> 01:17:08,640
Speaker 3: sort of, you know, expect the person in front of
