79
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 1: we have an action packed Monday podcaster, as we always do,

80
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 1: are winners and losers of the NBA weekend. Let's start

81
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,840
Speaker 1: with the winners. That just makes sense and task. Why

82
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:18,240
Speaker 1: don't you get to start who's your big winner of

83
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 1: the NBA weekend?

84
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,800
Speaker 2: Well, the Warriors jumped out at me, and I know

85
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 2: a lot of people say, just stop talking about the Warriors.

86
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 2: It's a sub five hundred team. Hey, you can't deny it.

87
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 2: They had a great weekend Friday morning, which I think

88
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,280
Speaker 2: is when the weekend starts. That right, Tray in the morning,

89
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 2: weekend start. On Friday, they had a meeting after their

90
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,720
Speaker 2: shoot around and they said, let's let's air it out.

91
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 2: Let's let's address all these elephants in the room. As

92
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 2: they said, Draymond did most of the talking. What yeah,

93
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,599
Speaker 2: He said, we don't play defense. And he spoke directly

94
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,599
Speaker 2: to Clay. You gotta trust the game a man, and

95
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 2: don't shoot every single shot that you can. Get the

96
00:04:57,920 --> 00:04:59,840
Speaker 2: ball around, move it back, move it around and it'll

97
00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:02,839
Speaker 2: get back to you. And they watched film and Clay said, yes,

98
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 2: I agree, I agree. I've been forcing it a little bit.

99
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 2: And then verse the Knicks on Friday, he was a

100
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,719
Speaker 2: lot more patient. You could see it in the highlights.

101
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 2: My man Anthony Slator Anthony, don't call me Ac Slater

102
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 2: on The Athletic wrote about it. It was a nice

103
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 2: performance from Clay. He hit what felt like the dagger

104
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,279
Speaker 2: with a swish a few minutes left against the Knicks

105
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 2: on Friday. He was eight of sixteen. First game all season,

106
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 2: he's hit fifty percent of his shots, and Clay after

107
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 2: the games had just felt incredible to have an efficient

108
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,480
Speaker 2: night from the field. He also said that Swish felt

109
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 2: so good. He said it was just an amazing to

110
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,800
Speaker 2: feel a swish go through. He also said Draymond is

111
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 2: an incredible leader, so you can see the Draymond influence

112
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 2: coming through there. And he'd said that all while folding

113
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:54,800
Speaker 2: a paper airplane during his postgame press conference. Classic Clay,

114
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 2: So the Knicks said, had beaten the Jazz and the

115
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,359
Speaker 2: Nuggets coming into that game, so listen, and it's a

116
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 2: mediocre team the Warriors beat, but Clay felt better. And

117
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 2: then on Sunday it was the Clay Show. So it

118
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,119
Speaker 2: just rolled over from Friday. They went on the road

119
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 2: where they had been winless. They had lost all eight

120
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 2: of their games. As a tight game late against the Rockets,

121
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:19,559
Speaker 2: which isn't a great sign, but the bench stunk again

122
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 2: to bring the Rockets back and they finished off an

123
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,719
Speaker 2: opponent finally on the road. They had lost a lot

124
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:31,799
Speaker 2: of games late Orlando other ones throughout they just weren't

125
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 2: able to finish off teams. And they're up three with

126
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 2: a minute thirty left and Clay hit a three that

127
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 2: he knew was going in. He backpedaled. Clay was just

128
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 2: in that good mode. He knew it was going in.

129
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 2: His tenth three unfortunately wasn't a swish, but anyways, it

130
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:50,360
Speaker 2: was his tenth three, giving him forty one points fourteen

131
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 2: of twenty three, shooting ten of thirteen from three. Three

132
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 2: point percentage went from thirty three and a half to

133
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 2: thirty seven and a half. Oh, Quinn, Yeah, quite a bump.

134
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:03,680
Speaker 2: And then next possession, which was amazing. Steph Curry being

135
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 2: defended by Eric Gordon really really well in those throwbacks.

136
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 2: Eric Gordon pushed him out beyond the three point line

137
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:13,680
Speaker 2: and Steph hit a fade three bomb that looked just

138
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,560
Speaker 2: like a prayer, and you can see the Rockets bench,

139
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:20,160
Speaker 2: the assistant coaches, the players either throw a towel down

140
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 2: or just throw their bodies on a chair, like what

141
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 2: are we doing here? That was his seventh three, so

142
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 2: seventeen combined from them, and then Wiggins hit six threes,

143
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 2: which is the most between three players ever in an

144
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 2: NBA game.

145
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:35,960
Speaker 1: I was kind of surprised. Ten to ten from Clay, Yeah,

146
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 1: seventy and then six.

147
00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 2: From Yeah twenty twenty three three players. The record is

148
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 2: twenty nine overall, so you know, for an entire team

149
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 2: throw the game, so it sort of makes sense. Thanks

150
00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 2: to Anthony Slater for that stet. The Warriors now eight

151
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 2: and nine, so still sub five hundred, but feeling better.

152
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 2: In terms of Clay, the defense has to be better.

153
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 2: That's still slacking, There's no doubt. Steve Kerr said that

154
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,400
Speaker 2: they're a Drew League team in terms of defense. He

155
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 2: was asked about Wiggans hit hitting six threes, Oh, that

156
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,680
Speaker 2: was good, he said, No, he's got to get better defensively.

157
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 2: So they still have some things to work out back

158
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 2: to back against the Pelicans on Monday, but a good

159
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 2: sign for Clay. Yeah, he has been struggling, and yeah,

160
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 2: Clay feeling right is important to this team obviously.

161
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 1: Yep. Any thoughts on the Warriors there, Clay sort of

162
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 1: breakout this weekend twenty.

163
00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 3: Two for thirty nine on the weekend, So maybe Draymond

164
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 3: told him, don't take every single shot, but if you do,

165
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 3: you might as well make it good stuff from Clay,

166
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 3: And he was getting the ball in a lot more

167
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:35,840
Speaker 3: standard Clay Thompson sort of positions, not as much dribbling,

168
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 3: not as much, forcing much more in the flow of

169
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 3: the offense, I thought, But still a ton of turnovers

170
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 3: in this game against the Rockets, and they had to

171
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 3: get twenty three threes from Steph, Clay and Wiggins to

172
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,680
Speaker 3: beat a team that's the worst in the Western Conference

173
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:50,960
Speaker 3: right now. So you still got to be a little

174
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,439
Speaker 3: bit nervous if you are the Warriors. But at the

175
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:55,200
Speaker 3: very least they seem to be on the right track

176
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 3: with Clay, and if Clay and Steph are hitting, you're

177
00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 3: in every single game. The problem is that they still

178
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:01,959
Speaker 3: gave up like a thirteen to zero run with their

179
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 3: bench in the second quarter. But eventually Steve Kirk just

180
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 3: decided not to play the guys that played in the

181
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 3: first half, which was smart. So more Draymond on the

182
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 3: court seems to translate to a little bit better defense,

183
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 3: No surprise, great wins for the Warriors here.

184
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:16,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's one step at a time. Maybe for current

185
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 1: the Warriors get Clay unlocked, then really improve the defense,

186
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 1: and then maybe figure out these rotations here and get

187
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 1: something from the bench. All right, let's keep it moving. TK.

188
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 1: What do you got for a winner of the weekend?

189
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,320
Speaker 1: Complicated winner of the weekend? Here go on.

190
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:30,080
Speaker 3: Boys went down to the Fortress Saturday night for Raptors

191
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 3: Hawks might have seen the game of the weekend. To

192
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,200
Speaker 3: be quite honest, back and forth game all night, ten ties,

193
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 3: ten lead changes. Neither team was up more than nine

194
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,200
Speaker 3: the entire night. But let's fast forward to the end

195
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:45,559
Speaker 3: of regulation tie game ten seconds left. Raptors ball Oh jiannao.

196
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:49,160
Speaker 3: He gets the ball in off the inbounds play. He

197
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 3: eventually gets into a dribble package here and he's got

198
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:53,600
Speaker 3: to work his way to the left side of the

199
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,240
Speaker 3: court where he ends up taking a tough step back

200
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 3: jumper og kind of had it going a little bit

201
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 3: this night, and not a tear shot here to get off.

202
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,520
Speaker 3: He gets the ball off too, with what three seconds,

203
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:08,600
Speaker 3: a couple seconds left on the clock. Scottie Barnes offensive

204
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 3: rebound misses a layup, another offensive rebound misses the tip.

205
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 3: It trickles out o t The boys were simply distraught.

206
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 3: Shades of Jonas Valanciunis all over again. My buddy Grish

207
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,559
Speaker 3: is still there. He told me at this very moment,

208
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,679
Speaker 3: the Hawks are gonna win. Yeah, So I was feeling

209
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 3: good for the Raptors, and yeah.

210
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 2: I can't believe Scotty missed that first layoup.

211
00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 3: Oh, the first layup is tough, and then the one

212
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,199
Speaker 3: that's like bounces on both sides of the rim. Tough stuff.

213
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 3: In overtime, though, it became the AJ Griffin game. Eight

214
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 3: points four or five from the field, two huge offensive rebounds,

215
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 3: but most importantly, after Ogiannanobi made two free throws to

216
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,440
Speaker 3: tie things up with three point eight seconds left, the

217
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:52,840
Speaker 3: Hawks inbound the ball to Dejonta Murray, who hooks up

218
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,959
Speaker 3: Trey Young right away like a hooking ladder kind of play. Yeah,

219
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 3: Bryce drew all over again, a half court value to

220
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,920
Speaker 3: AJ Griffin, wide open, underneath the hoop, lays it in

221
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 3: under at the buzzer, and it's pandemonium at the fortress.

222
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 3: Task mellis left home alone by his parents over the

223
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 3: Christmas holiday.

224
00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 1: Unfortunately, I had to salute it.

225
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 3: I'd be honestly, that was an awesome play after having

226
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,320
Speaker 3: no timeouts as well, because it came after a make

227
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:22,560
Speaker 3: so you know, during the time out, Nate McMillan saying,

228
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 3: if he makes this, we've got something locked down. Here

229
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 3: they went and they ran it. It worked perfectly. It

230
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,440
Speaker 3: seemed like the Raptors were kind of caught by surprise

231
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 3: that they had such a play ready. You could tell

232
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 3: because AJ Griffin just wide open the underneath the hoop

233
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:38,840
Speaker 3: all by himself. Just a delicious twist that his dad

234
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 3: is an assistant coach for the Raptors. So, like, was

235
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:42,840
Speaker 3: he happy?

236
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:44,760
Speaker 1: Was he sad? Oh? He was bumped. He said he

237
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 1: finally beat his dad. I'm and his dad. Oh, his

238
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 1: dad the best game of his career. Yeah, it conflicted.

239
00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 1: Probably probably on one hand, he's like, damn, our team lost,

240
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:55,400
Speaker 1: but yeah, that's my son. I bet he's one hundred

241
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 1: percent happy. Interesting.

242
00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, they were going to him on the Hawks broadcast.

243
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 2: I was looking at my phone during the game, looking

244
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:06,080
Speaker 2: at a bucket scored by AJ shot of Adrian Griffin.

245
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:09,240
Speaker 2: Adrian Griffin, he was holding back the smile he wanted

246
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 2: to give you. He was so pumped right in front

247
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:14,880
Speaker 2: of him as well, literally right in front of him

248
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,320
Speaker 2: in the in the second half in overtime. Yeah, that

249
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,600
Speaker 2: was his game. He was, he was bawling. He's you know,

250
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 2: he's not the most athletic dude, but he still has

251
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 2: a dribble package and he's gonna get even better and

252
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 2: better and better, and he's part of this rotation. He

253
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:27,720
Speaker 2: ain't going anywhere. He's just good.

254
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's nice to see Nate McMillan playing him, you know.

255
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 1: And that's why you draft, like sometimes you just draft

256
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,680
Speaker 1: on pure talent and then get them some reps. And

257
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:37,960
Speaker 1: he's delivering right now. That was an incredible play at

258
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,360
Speaker 1: the end because usually in those situations it's like get

259
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,720
Speaker 1: the ball to tray or get it to your superstar,

260
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 1: let him dribble and fire one up from half court ish,

261
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 1: you know that.

262
00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:48,719
Speaker 3: I thought that was all Yeah, I was like, that

263
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 3: would have been a smart play to just get Trey

264
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 3: Young a pretty open look from three point from thirty

265
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,480
Speaker 3: five feet. It's a tie game at that point, you're

266
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,319
Speaker 3: probably happy taking your chances there. We'll see if we

267
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,800
Speaker 3: can win it in doublet But no, finding Griffin underneath

268
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:03,959
Speaker 3: with enough time to get the ball up to the

269
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:04,839
Speaker 3: rim pretty sweet.

270
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, who was the button hook that got the ball first?

271
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 1: And yeah Murray.

272
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, So then a quick hand off to Trey who's sprinting,

273
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 2: and now it's a decision for og A Nanobi. Do

274
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 2: I stay back with aj Griffin who was basically in

275
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:20,800
Speaker 2: front of the raptors bench just came out of freaking nowhere.

276
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 2: I didn't even know. I didn't even know he was existed.

277
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:24,560
Speaker 2: I didn't know he was there. He was just sort

278
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 2: of on the sideline like a Jose Alvarado offensive player,

279
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 2: just kind of waiting there. And then you know, we

280
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,840
Speaker 2: went after Trey. They should have ended it a lot earlier.

281
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:35,920
Speaker 2: I know, they kept Oj had a good game, and

282
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,040
Speaker 2: they kept going to Og over and over and over again.

283
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 2: I want a little more Fred play making. At the end,

284
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:44,319
Speaker 2: Fred was just an off the ball hanging out in

285
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:47,120
Speaker 2: the corner. This dude has been doing it forever, was

286
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:49,400
Speaker 2: just sitting there, and to me, it sort of felt like, Okay,

287
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:52,840
Speaker 2: you're giving Og the reps to just help him out

288
00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 2: later in his career. Almost it felt like, you know,

289
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 2: later on in the season, at the very least later

290
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 2: on into the playoffs. But it was, you know, sort

291
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 2: of it because that didn't feel like a regular season

292
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:05,680
Speaker 2: game at all. You could see Trey Young looking up

293
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 2: at his the six man crew there at the end

294
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,040
Speaker 2: of the game. Uh, he was feeling it for a

295
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 2: regular season game. Yeah, the vibes were great, and yeah,

296
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:15,680
Speaker 2: definitely the game of the the night, The game of

297
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:19,440
Speaker 2: the weekend. I felt great because I didn't really on

298
00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 2: a Saturday night. I want to catch up on every

299
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 2: single game. But that was easily the game of the weekend.

300
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 1: Six PM start here too, which was kids Night Kids.

301
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,480
Speaker 1: That's right. You had a lot of Atlanta sports this weekend.

302
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 1: You went to the to the Falcons game the next days.

303
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:34,240
Speaker 1: All right, I'm a guy that likes sports gees. Yeah,

304
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 1: consumed consumed a Raptors loss, and then consumed a Bears loss.

305
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 1: Oh wow, Yeah, I was taking l's all weekends.

306
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 2: It was good stuff.

307
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 1: Well, we'll get to your Chicago Bulls too. Yeah, they're

308
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:46,360
Speaker 1: lading that the second block. You can tell where they're

309
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 1: showing up. Yeah. Let me give a winner of the

310
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 1: weekend to the Sacramento Kings. Like the beam, baby, just

311
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:52,520
Speaker 1: keep it lit.

312
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 2: Uh.

313
00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:57,480
Speaker 1: They beat the Pistons there on Sunday one, extended their

314
00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:01,120
Speaker 1: win streak to six games, which they haven't done since

315
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 1: like five oh six. Like, it's so far back that

316
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 1: they had a win streak like this. Now they're playing

317
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 1: the Pistons. Okay, you know this is one of the

318
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:11,160
Speaker 1: worst teams in the league. There's no kpe cunning hand

319
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 1: for them. But Sacramento closed the game on a fifteen

320
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 1: to five run. Their whole like way they tackle games

321
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:19,680
Speaker 1: this year is just like we're gonna score. They are

322
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:21,720
Speaker 1: a Drew Leigue game. For the most part, it's like

323
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 1: tons of scoring and then we're gonna play a little

324
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 1: defense for like three minutes and see if we can

325
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 1: pull it out. And they've won so many games like this.

326
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 1: Fox was huge in the fourth quarter. He at ten points,

327
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 1: hit two big free throws late, and Sabonis I thought

328
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 1: was making play after play on both ends of the floor,

329
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,360
Speaker 1: offensive rebounds and then defensively. He finished with fifteen points,

330
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 1: thirteen boards, seven assists. He was getting beat up in

331
00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 1: this game, too. Is cut all over the place. His

332
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 1: arm got cut. They had to stop the game to

333
00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 1: get that under control. He got cut behind his ear,

334
00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:52,240
Speaker 1: he got clocked upside the head. But this guy just

335
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 1: kept fighting, especially with those boards late, to pull out

336
00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 1: the victory. And this place, Sacramento, I mean chanting light

337
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 1: the beam and I want Kings fans. I know there

338
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 1: are people out there. What are you doing celebrating this

339
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 1: win over the Pistons even go sixteen win streak? Who

340
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:14,840
Speaker 1: cares basically five hundred? Who cares, ignore the haters, Ignore

341
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:18,640
Speaker 1: the haters, celebrate this. This is a feel good story

342
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 1: in the NBA right now. And this team, after losing

343
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 1: their first four, have won eight of their last ten.

344
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,480
Speaker 1: Here and again, they're not doing it defensively. It's all

345
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 1: offense except for a couple of little couple of minutes

346
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 1: where they sort of lock down, at least in this one.

347
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 1: And it's it's it's fun to watch. And I love

348
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:37,120
Speaker 1: having Sacramento with just an entertaining fan base. I mean,

349
00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:39,760
Speaker 1: they've always been there for this team despite being garbage

350
00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 1: for sixteen years, and so let them celebrate a little

351
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 1: win streak. Why not. And this light the beam thing

352
00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:48,800
Speaker 1: is fun. It's like sort of it's weird, but it's

353
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 1: sort of come about organically where people have at least

354
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 1: like latched onto it.

355
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 3: So they should have started lighting this beam a decade,

356
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 3: I guess. So game is the key, I gainst everybody

357
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,480
Speaker 3: on the same page. Everybody wants to see that beam, right, Like,

358
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 3: I don't know, I look at pictures of the Sacramento skyline.

359
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:06,879
Speaker 3: Now that's weird to be but yeah, that was an

360
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,760
Speaker 3: incredible win, A win win trade. You have to say

361
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:13,120
Speaker 3: Tyre's Halliburton for Demonta Sabonis. Halliburton's balling for the Pacers,

362
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 3: and it feels like the Kings don't miss him at all. Right, Yeah,

363
00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 3: especially considering you know, they've got their own good rookie

364
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 3: again this year, and Keegan Murray Fox has certainly leveled up,

365
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 3: and Kevin Herder has played incredibly well. He's another guy

366
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:25,920
Speaker 3: who got hit in the face a ton of times.

367
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 3: Last night he got called for a foul for hitting

368
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,359
Speaker 3: a guy with his face, Yeah, which was very weird.

369
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:30,720
Speaker 1: Weird.

370
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,960
Speaker 3: Also, Malik Monk got ejected from this game for accidentally

371
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 3: flexing into somebody. I guess he had a technical foul previously,

372
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:39,880
Speaker 3: certainly a taunt, so he got tossed. But he's been

373
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,840
Speaker 3: playing really well too. The Kings are one of the

374
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:43,800
Speaker 3: best things going right.

375
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:48,199
Speaker 2: Now, absolutely, and their fans were real, real loud, regardless

376
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:51,240
Speaker 2: of whether they should be celebrating a six game win streak.

377
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 2: They were just great fans in that building. And as

378
00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:56,480
Speaker 2: you said, keep the beam lit. Do we know when

379
00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:58,920
Speaker 2: it's d lit? Where do they turn that thing?

380
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,040
Speaker 1: I'm not sure how long does it stay.

381
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:04,160
Speaker 2: On three AM or something? Maybe automatic timer. Yeah, it's

382
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:04,920
Speaker 2: a good call.

383
00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:06,360
Speaker 1: An automatic timer. Yeah.

384
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 2: I like it though that it came about while they

385
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:12,880
Speaker 2: got hot this season, while they're playing above five hundred basketball,

386
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:15,920
Speaker 2: rather than you know, nine or ten or eleven, because

387
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:19,480
Speaker 2: they could have just been a laugher. They could have

388
00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 2: been laughed at because of it. I think it's the

389
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:23,679
Speaker 2: first time they've had a six game win streak in

390
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:27,400
Speaker 2: fourteen hundred games or something to that. So long, it's

391
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:30,600
Speaker 2: very long, Biby and Brad and all those dudes. But

392
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:34,040
Speaker 2: great for them. Yeah, obviously they can celebrate now. Yeah,

393
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:37,399
Speaker 2: the wind streak may be kind of masking some of

394
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:41,800
Speaker 2: the deficiencies, right, but that's who cares? Who cares? Right now?

395
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 1: The schedules about to get tough. Their next four games,

396
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:46,880
Speaker 1: first three of them are on the road. They got

397
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:50,719
Speaker 1: the Grizzlies, the Hawks, the Celtics, and the Suns. So

398
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:53,119
Speaker 1: I don't think the streak is going to continue to

399
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:56,680
Speaker 1: ten games, but you know, can they play five hundred

400
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 1: ball over those four games. We'll see Dearrion Fox too,

401
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,080
Speaker 1: just to show him some love. Of fifteen qualified players

402
00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:04,639
Speaker 1: averaging at least twenty five points per game this season,

403
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,320
Speaker 1: he's averaging twenty five point four. He owns the highest

404
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,480
Speaker 1: field goal percentage in that group at fifty five point

405
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:12,800
Speaker 1: eight percent, which is he like you put it, that

406
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:14,280
Speaker 1: was a great way to put it. Trade leveling up,

407
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:16,960
Speaker 1: that is what he's done here. And he's actually getting

408
00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:18,680
Speaker 1: at it on the defensive end too, which they keep

409
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:21,040
Speaker 1: talking about. So you're seeing that from your leader. And

410
00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:25,160
Speaker 1: Sibonis got some of Vlati Divach like sort of at

411
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:27,639
Speaker 1: the top operating out of him. He's not smoking the

412
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:31,119
Speaker 1: cigarettes unfortunately, I don't think so past but you know,

413
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 1: they go to him, and he's such a playmaker for

414
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:35,600
Speaker 1: a big guy. I like the comparisons there. So the

415
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 1: King's a winner of the weekend. But let's get to

416
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 1: ladder Gate. Come on, baby, A winner of the weekend

417
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:43,440
Speaker 1: instead of a loser of the weekend.

418
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,639
Speaker 2: I think so. I think undoubtedly a winner of the weekend.

419
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:51,280
Speaker 2: Hilarious drama in Philly on Friday night, Bucks Philly after

420
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:54,000
Speaker 2: the game. I think there are clearly three winners with

421
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,720
Speaker 2: this ladder Gate drama. Okkay. So just to paint the

422
00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:58,560
Speaker 2: picture here, the seventy six ers one, they beat the

423
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 2: Milwaukee Bucks in Philly. Yanni struggled at the line bad

424
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:05,359
Speaker 2: night at the line four of fifteen. So naturally the

425
00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:07,679
Speaker 2: guy puts in his work. He goes back onto the

426
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:09,960
Speaker 2: court to shoot some free throws. He starts missing his

427
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,440
Speaker 2: free throws as a matter of fact, while he's practicing,

428
00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:15,600
Speaker 2: and Montrez Harold the Philadelphia seventy six ers also wants

429
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:17,159
Speaker 2: to go get some work in, so he comes on

430
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 2: the floor. He sees Gianna shooting on the floor. He says, no, sir,

431
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:23,879
Speaker 2: not in Philadelphia. He grabs the ball after he shoots

432
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:27,159
Speaker 2: a free throw and won't give it back, and Janna

433
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,920
Speaker 2: is just standing at the free throw line saying, what

434
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:34,159
Speaker 2: are we doing here? Is this grade school all over again?

435
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:37,399
Speaker 2: He goes he jan He said postgame that he asked Harold, hey,

436
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 2: do you want to shoot with me? You want to shoot,

437
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:43,000
Speaker 2: Let's shoot some free throws. Montrez Harrold said, this ain't Milwaukee.

438
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:47,480
Speaker 2: Get out of here. So to me, Montrez Harrald is

439
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,200
Speaker 2: a winner. I know he's acting a little petulant, sure,

440
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:55,399
Speaker 2: but he's become a fan for life with the Philadelphia

441
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,639
Speaker 2: seventy six You have to do that. You just have to.

442
00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:01,760
Speaker 2: That's sports. We're all children here. They're playing in jammies.

443
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,720
Speaker 2: We're cheers for got people playing in jimmies. It's fine anyway. Okay,

444
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:06,920
Speaker 2: So Yannis doesn't have a ball anymore, so he's screwed.

445
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 2: So he goes to the back. He gets two balls.

446
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:11,840
Speaker 1: Because that's my favorite detail the whole thing.

447
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:13,840
Speaker 3: Two balls, very funny.

448
00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 2: Gets two so if somebody takes one, he's good. Anyways,

449
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,960
Speaker 2: So he's shooting on a rim. He sorry, He goes

450
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 2: towards a rim. And then the Philadelphia seventy six ers,

451
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:31,440
Speaker 2: the staff there is has to fix something on top

452
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:34,200
Speaker 2: of the backboard. Apparently they take down video equipment every

453
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 2: single game. So they're up there doing their thing. They're

454
00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:39,400
Speaker 2: trying to get up there to do their thing. Yanny's

455
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,119
Speaker 2: yells at them and said, hey, can you get out

456
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:45,879
Speaker 2: of the way right yeah, And they said. He moves

457
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 2: it slightly, not a lot, just to get it out

458
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,280
Speaker 2: of the way. He goes back towards the free throw line.

459
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:53,239
Speaker 2: They move it right back right in the way, and

460
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:56,440
Speaker 2: he gets right back there and pushes it over. And

461
00:21:56,480 --> 00:22:01,560
Speaker 2: so Yanni's a winner absolutely, Because there's probably somebody who's

462
00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:06,560
Speaker 2: written a four thousand word article about Janis's work ethic right,

463
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:10,359
Speaker 2: it's it's Kobe like, this guy will not stop. But

464
00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:13,240
Speaker 2: also a winner. I think the Philadelphia seventy six ers

465
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:17,680
Speaker 2: employees there, the staff, the technical crew, for again doing

466
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,000
Speaker 2: what Philly fans should do. I assume they're fans of

467
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 2: the team. They should not let Yaniskombo I'm not. I

468
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:25,879
Speaker 2: tried to do the investigative work as to whether or

469
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:27,840
Speaker 2: not they had actually completed their work and just put

470
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 2: the ladder in there. But either way, even if they

471
00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:31,840
Speaker 2: had to do the work, if they hadn't do the work,

472
00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:33,359
Speaker 2: if they still if they had done their work and

473
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 2: just put the ladder there, huge winners. Philly fans gotta

474
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:38,600
Speaker 2: love him. And if not, they're just trying to do

475
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 2: their work. So I think they're a winner. I think

476
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:42,639
Speaker 2: Yanics is the winner. I think Mantres Harrald was a winner.

477
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:47,600
Speaker 2: Jannis I think, didn't get to shoot after that, and

478
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:51,200
Speaker 2: he also brought out his browth and compo. He wanted

479
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:52,679
Speaker 2: to go out so nast He came out there to

480
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 2: talk to Mantres because he's a bit of Janis's bodyguard

481
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,679
Speaker 2: to some degree, and they had a chat. Nothing, nothing

482
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:03,640
Speaker 2: came of it. But uh listen, yeah, it's just struggling.

483
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,840
Speaker 2: Not only four or fifteen that night, but four of

484
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:09,720
Speaker 2: eleven the previous night. So the athletic was all over

485
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,080
Speaker 2: that story. So I woke up Saturday morning enjoying that.

486
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:13,879
Speaker 1: So this is the reason why you love the NBA.

487
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:16,680
Speaker 1: It's like a great like only in the NBA, could

488
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:17,919
Speaker 1: let's be a story. I feel like, I.

489
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,280
Speaker 2: Guess, I mean, I you what would what would you

490
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:24,679
Speaker 2: expect though? Going onto the opposing team's floor to shoot

491
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:25,200
Speaker 2: free throws?

492
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:27,639
Speaker 1: This happens all the time, is the thing? Like this

493
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,480
Speaker 1: isn't new, Like, oh my god, this guy's in our

494
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:32,720
Speaker 1: barn after the game shooting free throws. Apparently you know

495
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 1: it happens all the time. Yeah, people go get working

496
00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:37,280
Speaker 1: because they didn't play like Montress Harral a lot of minutes,

497
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:39,240
Speaker 1: or they want to work on something because they were struggling.

498
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 1: And then Montres Harrol just like no, not on my

499
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 1: watch man.

500
00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:43,720
Speaker 2: Well Montres played some minutes, they had a good he

501
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:46,920
Speaker 2: had a good game. But for like five minutes, I think, yeah,

502
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 2: well they had a good he had a good Uh yeah,

503
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:50,960
Speaker 2: I guess. Anyways, it was it was a good small

504
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 2: lineup that he played with big boy Paul Reid. But anyway,

505
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,680
Speaker 2: uh yeah, they go up. But you're in Philly so

506
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:01,400
Speaker 2: people are going to vice or voice their complaints.

507
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:05,160
Speaker 1: Well, thank god the ladder didn't hit anybody. Yes, oh yeah,

508
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,480
Speaker 1: that's the winner. That would be very, very bad, like unintentionally.

509
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 1: It's not like he was like knocking it over to

510
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:11,760
Speaker 1: try and hit somebody, but like he just tries to

511
00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:14,359
Speaker 1: push it because he's pissed off, like why won't anybody

512
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:16,280
Speaker 1: let me shoot free throws? And then it like sort

513
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:18,399
Speaker 1: of gets caught right and then falls down, doesn't hit anybody.

514
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:20,800
Speaker 1: It's a giant ass ladder. I guess it could have hurt,

515
00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 1: so thank god that didn't happen. I wish it was

516
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:26,199
Speaker 1: Embeied instead of Montres Harald though, because we would give

517
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:28,639
Speaker 1: new meaning to the MVP ladder, which would be a

518
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:30,960
Speaker 1: lot of fun to me. But you know, Montres Haral's

519
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 1: not gonna be on the top five of the MVP race.

520
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 1: Why do they play next? That's the real question, because

521
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:39,639
Speaker 1: this is gonna like spill over into that game, right.

522
00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 1: I suppose got Nice is pissed. I guess Montrez Harl's pissed,

523
00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:45,919
Speaker 1: you know if he gets on the Philly Yeah.

524
00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:47,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, he just wasn't that mad. He's just like, hey,

525
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 2: you want to you want to shoot free throws with me, buddy.

526
00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:52,120
Speaker 1: He was mad after he came back and they.

527
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 2: Were yes, yes, they wouldn't let him shoot. And the

528
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:58,800
Speaker 2: fishy part is monstrous ladder to get up onto the backboard,

529
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 2: you know, thirteen fourteen feet high, but when they're working

530
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 2: on the other rim, they pulled down the backboard like

531
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 2: you can, so it's like at five feet So fishy stuff.

532
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,800
Speaker 2: Why are they working at a fifteen foot rim rather

533
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:11,920
Speaker 2: than a five foot rim?

534
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:15,879
Speaker 1: What do you think of ladder gate? I don't know.

535
00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:19,679
Speaker 3: I mean, like, Gianna should be able to shoot free thrusts.

536
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,120
Speaker 3: This was the biggest play that Montres Harold made that night.

537
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:24,240
Speaker 3: They don't play again until March. We'll see if they

538
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:26,520
Speaker 3: still remember. And it's it and they're done playing in

539
00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:30,240
Speaker 3: Philadelphia unfortunately, So Mantrez Harreld's gonna get boot a lot,

540
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:33,359
Speaker 3: I do believe when they come to Milwaukee. But at

541
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:35,480
Speaker 3: least we got a little spice between these two teams.

542
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:37,520
Speaker 3: They you know, they've been some of the better teams

543
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,480
Speaker 3: in the Eastern Conference. They've got two big guys each

544
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,880
Speaker 3: of them that are gott to go against each other

545
00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:45,119
Speaker 3: at some point. That's cool to have a little bit

546
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,720
Speaker 3: of extra beef here, but I think Giana should have

547
00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:48,800
Speaker 3: been allowed to shoot free thrusts.

548
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,320
Speaker 1: Do you think opposing fans will start showing up with

549
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:55,680
Speaker 1: like ladders, like little cutout ladders in the in the crowd.

550
00:25:56,160 --> 00:26:00,639
Speaker 3: I think they should should should pass out ladders for

551
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:05,679
Speaker 3: that game against Philly at least, yeah, like a hand ladders.

552
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:09,320
Speaker 1: Oh okay, okay, I love that idea. Let's hear from

553
00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:11,800
Speaker 1: every buddy. Are you team Yiannis? Are you team sixers

554
00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:13,960
Speaker 1: when it came to laddergate there on Friday? Or are

555
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:15,800
Speaker 1: you just loving it like task he was for a

556
00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 1: Winner of the weekend, Trail Let's keep it going. What

557
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:17,680
Speaker 1: do you got?

558
00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:20,720
Speaker 3: Big weekend for the Utah Jazz. They lost three straight

559
00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 3: last week. I thought maybe the tight has turned on

560
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:26,000
Speaker 3: this team, but all contra mon Frere. They beat the

561
00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:30,720
Speaker 3: Suns and the Trailblazers back to back on Friday and Saturday,

562
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:32,560
Speaker 3: and both of those are really good wins. I'm giving

563
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,440
Speaker 3: him winner of the Weekend more specifically for Friday night

564
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:38,119
Speaker 3: because Lowry Markinen also gets Winner of the Weekend for

565
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:41,160
Speaker 3: that game. Career high thirty eight on Friday on fifteen

566
00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:44,399
Speaker 3: of eighteen, shooting that includes a dagger turnaround jumper with

567
00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:48,880
Speaker 3: about forty seconds left, rocking the Purple Mountain jerseys as well.

568
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 3: He followed that up with twenty three to ten against Portland.

569
00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,040
Speaker 3: It's hard to have a better weekend than the Jazz

570
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,440
Speaker 3: did this weekend. The Suns and the Blazers were both

571
00:26:57,520 --> 00:26:59,720
Speaker 3: at the top of the Western Conference. They were both

572
00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:01,639
Speaker 3: top ten defenses, and the Jazz went out and put

573
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:03,639
Speaker 3: one hundred and thirty four points and one hundred and

574
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:06,880
Speaker 3: eighteen points respectively on them to move into first place

575
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:07,960
Speaker 3: in the Western Conference.

576
00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 1: At this point, it's.

577
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 3: Almost impossible for them to tank because they have so

578
00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:14,359
Speaker 3: many more wins than the worst teams in the NBA

579
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:16,520
Speaker 3: right now, like the Houston Rockets, Like they're already ten

580
00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:19,000
Speaker 3: games clear at this point, so might as well just

581
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:20,800
Speaker 3: roll with it and see if you get one of

582
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:22,880
Speaker 3: these pick swaps or if any of these other first

583
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,399
Speaker 3: round picks seem to hit, because it's just too good

584
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:27,720
Speaker 3: for the Jazz right now. They seem like an early

585
00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:30,600
Speaker 3: season surprise. Maybe they tail off as the season goes on,

586
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:32,800
Speaker 3: but at the very least, they play really, really hard,

587
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:35,000
Speaker 3: and Will Hardy has figured out how to get the best.

588
00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:36,520
Speaker 1: Out of Lowry Marketing. Pretty impressive.

589
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:40,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, and they're halfway to their over underwin total, which

590
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:42,240
Speaker 2: was twenty four. They're at twelve and six and have

591
00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:47,040
Speaker 2: had a real road heavy schedule. Yeah, not fading Lowry

592
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,960
Speaker 2: Marketing and not fading whatsoever at this point.

593
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:55,399
Speaker 1: Feeling good winter the weekend to Anthony Davis eighty thirty points,

594
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 1: eighteen boards as the Lakers beat the Spurs one to

595
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,840
Speaker 1: twenty three to ninety two on Sunday. They won their

596
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:02,760
Speaker 1: third straight game. The Lakers did for the first time

597
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:05,200
Speaker 1: since the first week of January. Yeah, we're talking about

598
00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:06,879
Speaker 1: all these streaks that haven't happened in a while, but

599
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,840
Speaker 1: Ad is on one right now. Thirty eight and sixteen

600
00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:12,919
Speaker 1: shooting sixty two and a half percent against the Nets

601
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:15,600
Speaker 1: three games ago, followed that up with thirty seven and

602
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,880
Speaker 1: eighteen shooting sixty percent from the floor against the Pistons,

603
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 1: and then yesterday, like I said, thirty and eighteen shooting

604
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:23,680
Speaker 1: sixty three percent from the floor. He's leading the Lakers

605
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 1: in points, rebound, steals, and blocks. Look, these teams they

606
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:31,800
Speaker 1: beat taking advantage of a somewhat easy schedule, Like the

607
00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:33,720
Speaker 1: Nets are a super small team, so you want to

608
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:37,359
Speaker 1: see Ad just destroy them. The Pistons, no beef stew Okay,

609
00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:40,680
Speaker 1: he destroyed them, and then no Yakaperol even for the

610
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 1: Spurs there on Sunday. So he did his work. But

611
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 1: this is what Lakers fan, this is what even Lebron

612
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 1: it sounded like coming into the season expected. Now Lebron's

613
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 1: not even playing in these games right now, but it

614
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 1: was like, all right, Ad, you are like the thirty

615
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:55,440
Speaker 1: and fifteen type guy, and then I'm filling in around

616
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:57,960
Speaker 1: the gaps and then we'll go from there. So Austin

617
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 1: Reeve played well on Sunday, hit a bunch of three.

618
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:03,440
Speaker 1: He's got to continue to play. Westbrook is playing solid

619
00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:06,520
Speaker 1: off the bench. Another tennis is coming off the bench.

620
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 1: He did hurt his I believe it was thumb, but

621
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 1: I think the X rays are negative. They got Thomas

622
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:14,680
Speaker 1: Bryant back, Dennis Shruder back. Lebron will return at some point,

623
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:16,600
Speaker 1: so a Laker's slowly getting to go here. But I

624
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 1: just think that Ad thing where it's like, oh yeah,

625
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:21,360
Speaker 1: when he plays like this, you're like, oh yeah, he

626
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:22,960
Speaker 1: is maybe like a top ten guy in the league.

627
00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:25,840
Speaker 1: But then he'll do it for a week and then

628
00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 1: he'll unfortunately get injured or disappear in second half like

629
00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 1: he was early in the season, So hopefully he can

630
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:33,040
Speaker 1: continue to keep this up. But he looking pretty dominant

631
00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 1: against subpower competition, pretty.

632
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:38,080
Speaker 3: Bad competition, all small front lines, all missing their best center.

633
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:41,200
Speaker 3: But that's what the Lakers need from Anthony Davis. He

634
00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 3: should be shooting inside way more often than he's shooting outside,

635
00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:45,960
Speaker 3: and that's what you see in these past three games.

636
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:47,480
Speaker 1: He's taking far fewer jumpers.

637
00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:50,520
Speaker 3: Maybe part of that is having Westbrook on the bench,

638
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:52,640
Speaker 3: not out there as much, no Lebron living in the

639
00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:54,880
Speaker 3: lane as well. There's a lot more space for AD

640
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,239
Speaker 3: to operate, but he's taken advantage of it right now,

641
00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 3: and the Lakers just need to stack up some wins.

642
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:00,840
Speaker 3: So shout out to him putting the team on his

643
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:01,600
Speaker 3: back a little bit here.

644
00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:04,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, easy schedule coming up for the Lakers these next

645
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:06,920
Speaker 2: few games. This is when they have to get closer,

646
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:09,440
Speaker 2: back to closer to five hundred, as they said at

647
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:12,400
Speaker 2: five and ten. Right now, Thomas Brian coming back helps AD.

648
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:16,080
Speaker 2: He's a big man, sort of a journeyman in the league,

649
00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:20,320
Speaker 2: but he can do some things as a backup big.

650
00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:23,800
Speaker 2: Right now, just two games into his Lakers career, will

651
00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:26,920
Speaker 2: he end up starting beside Anthony Davis maybe to help

652
00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:28,840
Speaker 2: him out on the boards, because I know people see

653
00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,400
Speaker 2: Dwight Howard and Taiwan doing his thing and they're saying,

654
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:33,600
Speaker 2: why can't Dwight Howard be doing this for the Lakers. Well,

655
00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:35,400
Speaker 2: they have hope that Thomas Brian can do some of that.

656
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:38,920
Speaker 2: Dennis Shruter also coming back, as you mentioned, hilarious comment

657
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:42,800
Speaker 2: from Kyle Kuzma, his former teammate with the Lakers, on

658
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:47,120
Speaker 2: Dennis Shruter's post on Instagram saying save the season man

659
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:50,760
Speaker 2: and Dennis Shruter say, though you bad for that when

660
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 2: they're kous, but those two guys are rotation players and

661
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,960
Speaker 2: they desperately need them to help. But they got to

662
00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 2: win now. Yeah now, now now it's five and ten,

663
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,280
Speaker 2: they have to get closer to five hundred. That being said,

664
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:05,360
Speaker 2: the Western Conference in the NBA, there's a lot of

665
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:08,400
Speaker 2: teams that are in that glut of five hundred teams,

666
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:10,920
Speaker 2: So they can jump up the standings if they do

667
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,680
Speaker 2: win some games here and get into the play in

668
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:14,560
Speaker 2: tournament picture.

669
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:18,520
Speaker 1: All right, let's take our first break here on Monday's podcast.

670
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:20,800
Speaker 1: When we come back. We will get to losers of

671
00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:24,760
Speaker 1: the NBA weekend. All right, still here in the classic

672
00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 1: factory time do you get to losers of the NBA weekend?

673
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 1: We already teased it in the A Block TK or

674
00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 1: Chicago Bulls.

675
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 3: Oh, just an absolute disaster class from the Bulls. On

676
00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:38,960
Speaker 3: Friday night, they stunk it up in the first half

677
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:41,360
Speaker 3: of their game against the Orlando Magic. I turned the

678
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 3: game off at halftime to watch the Crown. It was

679
00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:48,200
Speaker 3: the Charles and Camilla tampon Gate episode. Oh yeah, yeah, huh,

680
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 3: that was spicy stuff. I'm intrigued, disgusting.

681
00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:52,480
Speaker 1: No, you don't, you don't.

682
00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:55,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, you ever still, ever tell your you ever tell

683
00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:57,200
Speaker 3: your wife you want to live insider trousers?

684
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:04,040
Speaker 2: No? Actually I told her twice and she said, ponder replay.

685
00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 3: Nonetheless, I thought this was a garden variety Chicago Bulls does.

686
00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 3: They've had a lot of them recently. Last Sunday they

687
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:16,080
Speaker 3: laid an egg against the Denver Nuggets. They had another

688
00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 3: bad one on Wednesday against the Pelicans. I thought that's

689
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:21,560
Speaker 3: what this was. On Friday, but much to my surprise,

690
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:24,120
Speaker 3: the Bulls tied the game with a minute left, so

691
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:26,160
Speaker 3: I turned it back on I saw the Bulls take

692
00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:30,800
Speaker 3: a four point lead instantaneously off two huge Javonte Green

693
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:34,280
Speaker 3: Energy plays. The United Center was bumping our guy, John

694
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:36,560
Speaker 3: John was in the crowd. He said it was lit,

695
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:40,000
Speaker 3: and then twenty seconds later it was a disaster. After

696
00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:41,920
Speaker 3: some free throws cut the lead to two, the Bulls

697
00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:44,800
Speaker 3: had the ball. Vouch goes to the line with twelve

698
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:47,600
Speaker 3: seconds left, needs to make two to ice the game.

699
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:51,080
Speaker 3: One is acceptable. There's an old Nordic saying. We say

700
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:53,440
Speaker 3: in our household all the time, what a free throws

701
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:58,800
Speaker 3: do win games? He missed both, rebound to the Orlando

702
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,440
Speaker 3: Magic ball gets the Jalen. He hits Io with a

703
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:06,200
Speaker 3: step back three game blouses. A terrible loss for the Bulls,

704
00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:09,840
Speaker 3: just straight up even worse because it was against the

705
00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 3: Orlando Magic, who they had the Vucevic trade with. We

706
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 3: got Cole Anthony on Instagram talking trash. The guy didn't

707
00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 3: even play in this game. Zach Lavine went one to fourteen,

708
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 3: got benched down the stretch. He was sniping at Billy

709
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,960
Speaker 3: Donovan after the game. Balls are down bad big time.

710
00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:24,320
Speaker 1: Right now.

711
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:26,800
Speaker 3: They're on a losing streak. They've got seven of their

712
00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:30,080
Speaker 3: next ten on the road. Against some good competition. This

713
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:33,680
Speaker 3: is kind of the crucial stretch of the season for

714
00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:37,520
Speaker 3: Chicago right now. We talked about blowing the team up

715
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:40,720
Speaker 3: last week. I said, no, I am no longer a

716
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:41,960
Speaker 3: hardliner on that one.

717
00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 1: I still think no tank. But if people are calling.

718
00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:48,400
Speaker 3: And saying, hey, I need those fourteen points from Vouch,

719
00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:51,480
Speaker 3: you gotta hear him out. If somebody wants to maybe

720
00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:53,440
Speaker 3: give you a first round pick for DeMar de Rosen

721
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:55,520
Speaker 3: and his forty points that he can get every single night,

722
00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:57,040
Speaker 3: just see what they're offering.

723
00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:57,960
Speaker 1: You know, take some.

724
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:02,560
Speaker 3: Calls and stuff, because this was a pretty bad and

725
00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:05,800
Speaker 3: sad loss, to the point where people who aren't bulls

726
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 3: fans are starting to ask what the problem is. And

727
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,400
Speaker 3: that's when you know you've become the problem in the NBA.

728
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:11,239
Speaker 1: Not good.

729
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:15,320
Speaker 2: It's great that you have slightly altered your mind from

730
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:19,040
Speaker 2: blow this thing up to potentially retool because I like

731
00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 2: that because even if you trade Vouch, the record's not

732
00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:26,200
Speaker 2: getting any worse. Like they're six and ten right now,

733
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:30,520
Speaker 2: Vouch's thirty two. This is this is the best Vouch

734
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:31,960
Speaker 2: you're going to see ever in the NBA.

735
00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:33,520
Speaker 3: This is the last Booch we're going to see on

736
00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:36,160
Speaker 3: the Bulls. I think as well, this contract comes to

737
00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:38,359
Speaker 3: an end at the end of this season. I can't

738
00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:40,279
Speaker 3: imagine they'll be paying him a whole bunch. So if

739
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:43,399
Speaker 3: somebody is interested, I would I would take a pick

740
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:45,200
Speaker 3: in the twenties, maybe in the thirties.

741
00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:46,840
Speaker 1: Wow.

742
00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:49,600
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, it sucks because they gave up two first

743
00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:53,640
Speaker 2: round picks for him, but sunk cost. That's the old

744
00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:57,799
Speaker 2: that's minordic saying sun cost theory. Get just just move on.

745
00:34:58,120 --> 00:34:59,840
Speaker 2: Even if you traded two first round picks and the

746
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:01,640
Speaker 2: is not gonna be anywhere close. It could be a

747
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:04,799
Speaker 2: pick in the thirties. What are you gonna do? Move

748
00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:07,560
Speaker 2: on and at least retool because they do have a

749
00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:09,600
Speaker 2: lot of their own draft picks. So hopefully they can

750
00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:13,080
Speaker 2: straddle this line of trying to get better in the

751
00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:16,440
Speaker 2: future rather than trying to do it now and then

752
00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:19,040
Speaker 2: tear it down because right now. Again, as we talked

753
00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,719
Speaker 2: about last week, it was a great question on beach

754
00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:24,720
Speaker 2: step in. Part of the answer is you're not gonna

755
00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:27,720
Speaker 2: be able to deal with the young teams for years

756
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:30,040
Speaker 2: here in the Eastern Conference, the young and up and

757
00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:33,080
Speaker 2: coming teams like the Cavs and the Hawks, and even

758
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,960
Speaker 2: the Celtics and the Bucks. You're worse than those teams, right,

759
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:39,560
Speaker 2: And it's a bad place to be with an old Vouch,

760
00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:42,520
Speaker 2: an older DeRozan who will be playing great for a

761
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:46,080
Speaker 2: long time. But yeah, I think some retooling is part

762
00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:47,040
Speaker 2: of the future here.

763
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:48,879
Speaker 1: And what do you think about the benching of Zach

764
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:50,680
Speaker 1: Lavine who had a stinker of a game and then

765
00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:53,359
Speaker 1: his comments after saying like I gotta basically be out there.

766
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,440
Speaker 1: What did Bulls fan Tray Kirby think about all that?

767
00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:01,480
Speaker 3: Well, he was stinking it up, man, He was one

768
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:03,759
Speaker 3: for fourteen on the night and he's not giving it

769
00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 3: to you defensively.

770
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:06,520
Speaker 1: But I do agree with Zach Levine.

771
00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:08,759
Speaker 3: He could probably make a free throw, So you know,

772
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:10,840
Speaker 3: I don't mind having one of your better shooters on

773
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:14,160
Speaker 3: the court when you're playing a free throw game, but

774
00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 3: I did not. I don't mind seeing a coach questioning

775
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:20,799
Speaker 3: or a player questioning their coach Billy Donovan right now,

776
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:23,640
Speaker 3: because I think he's got some questions certainly to answer,

777
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:25,680
Speaker 3: and if players are starting to put pressure on him now,

778
00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:27,520
Speaker 3: maybe that leads to some change.

779
00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:31,080
Speaker 1: Eventually he might be on the hottest seat. Billy Donovan

780
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:33,200
Speaker 1: probably one of them. He's on one of the hotter

781
00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:33,920
Speaker 1: seats right now.

782
00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:35,880
Speaker 3: They've lost what five of their last six, and like

783
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:37,960
Speaker 3: I said, they're going on a crazy trip right now.

784
00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:39,840
Speaker 1: No, I lied to you. They've lost six of seven

785
00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:40,720
Speaker 1: and four straight.

786
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:44,480
Speaker 2: Whovic is shooting eighty eight percent from the line this year,

787
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:46,200
Speaker 2: not a lot of free throws, but.

788
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:47,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, because he always fades away from contact.

789
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:51,600
Speaker 2: He doesn't know what, Yeah, he doesn't yet not, but

790
00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:54,239
Speaker 2: it's seventy six percent shooter from the free throw line

791
00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:54,680
Speaker 2: for his career.

792
00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:56,279
Speaker 3: I just wanted to check that I knew he was

793
00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:57,680
Speaker 3: missing one when he went to the line on like,

794
00:36:57,680 --> 00:36:59,040
Speaker 3: he's going to miss one of these for sure, and

795
00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:01,040
Speaker 3: then he'd break both both as bad do you think?

796
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:03,000
Speaker 1: After the game he went out and tried to shoot around,

797
00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:08,640
Speaker 1: but Bulls, the Bulls staff wouldn't even let him. Ladderingerwear, Yeah,

798
00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:11,279
Speaker 1: ladder match all right, task, Who do you got for

799
00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:11,920
Speaker 1: a loser weekend?

800
00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:15,440
Speaker 2: Well, the Philadelphia seventy six ers, not so much for

801
00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:18,480
Speaker 2: what happened on the floor, but looking long term this season,

802
00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:21,799
Speaker 2: what happened on the weekend, I think it's a bad

803
00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:24,560
Speaker 2: omen for their playoff chances. So what happened was. They

804
00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:26,520
Speaker 2: beat the Bucks on Friday, as we talked about ladder

805
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:29,080
Speaker 2: Gate there, but they lost Tyrese Maxi in the first

806
00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:31,080
Speaker 2: half of what was probably his best game of the

807
00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:34,640
Speaker 2: season twenty three points in five assists and wasn't even halftime.

808
00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:36,759
Speaker 2: And he's going to be out a month with a

809
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:39,759
Speaker 2: foot injury. They already lost their starting guard James Harden

810
00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:42,040
Speaker 2: as well. He's gonna be out for the next couple

811
00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:45,319
Speaker 2: weeks also a foot injury, and he's got to get

812
00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:47,279
Speaker 2: back in shape. So how long is it going to

813
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:51,360
Speaker 2: take for them to get their starting backcourt back. That

814
00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:54,440
Speaker 2: just means more work for Joel Embiid, and this dude,

815
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:58,320
Speaker 2: as we say in sports, has been a work course

816
00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:02,600
Speaker 2: since he got back injury. His usage rate was forty

817
00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:05,440
Speaker 2: two percent going into their second game of the weekend

818
00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:08,600
Speaker 2: against Minnesota. That number is ridiculous. It would lead the league,

819
00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:11,200
Speaker 2: it would lead the history books. That is just so

820
00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:13,960
Speaker 2: much the most that anybody has ever done. So I

821
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:16,160
Speaker 2: think that's gonna be even more now. They came back

822
00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:19,720
Speaker 2: and fought against Minnesota. They're down twenty without Harden and Maxi.

823
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,080
Speaker 2: Without Maxi for the first time, and they made it

824
00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:24,440
Speaker 2: close against Minnesota. On Saturday Night, but they ended up losing.

825
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:27,200
Speaker 2: Now they're eight to eight and being an MVP candidate,

826
00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:31,239
Speaker 2: we saw drop fifty nine a mirror a week ago.

827
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:35,000
Speaker 2: But now you're gonna ask a lot of a guy

828
00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:38,360
Speaker 2: physically to carry a team in a regular season throughout

829
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:40,640
Speaker 2: his next six weeks. As again, a five hundred team,

830
00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:43,520
Speaker 2: you got to try and get better and then to

831
00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:45,839
Speaker 2: do it in the playoffs when that has been a

832
00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:48,600
Speaker 2: question mark. So I just worry about the long term

833
00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:53,279
Speaker 2: viability of this team, Ken you really, is it scientific

834
00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:55,920
Speaker 2: for me to say that maybe they can turn it around. No,

835
00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:57,879
Speaker 2: I don't know. It's just more of a feel thing.

836
00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:00,239
Speaker 2: But cohesion is also an issue with this team because

837
00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:02,560
Speaker 2: they can't practice. They had four straight days off last

838
00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:06,160
Speaker 2: week and no Harden in there, and guys like Tobias

839
00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:09,040
Speaker 2: Harris is now out with a hip issue, Corkms was out,

840
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:16,040
Speaker 2: even Hardy Hardy Maxi andd Anthony Melton couldn't practice during

841
00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:19,759
Speaker 2: those days. So the cohesion of a new squad is

842
00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:22,919
Speaker 2: a bad omen. And it's just one of those things

843
00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:25,200
Speaker 2: like when are they going to get it around in

844
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:27,560
Speaker 2: twenty twenty three? What are they gonna get it together?

845
00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:30,440
Speaker 2: I should say, maybe in twenty twenty three, but that's

846
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:32,279
Speaker 2: a while from now. Maybe they could be the Celtics,

847
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:35,960
Speaker 2: but somebody has to take some pressure off Joel Embiid

848
00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:37,440
Speaker 2: and that's not gonna happen for a while. So I

849
00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:39,239
Speaker 2: think it's a bad omen looking forward, even though they

850
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:41,239
Speaker 2: had a one in one weekend, but they're just eight

851
00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:41,520
Speaker 2: and eight.

852
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:44,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a lot of teams right now in the

853
00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:46,680
Speaker 1: NBA that are like missing a whole lot of guys,

854
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:48,399
Speaker 1: and I will go with with another one for loser

855
00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:50,960
Speaker 1: of the weekend. The Miami Heat sort of in a

856
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:54,359
Speaker 1: similar boat there as the Sixers. Now Friday night, Kyle

857
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:57,239
Speaker 1: Lowry and six of his friends, they nearly went into

858
00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:00,480
Speaker 1: Washington and got the win. They lost in a overtime,

859
00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:03,000
Speaker 1: just came up short. Did you see the score in

860
00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:06,000
Speaker 1: overtime in that Washington Miami game? Good old three to two,

861
00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:12,600
Speaker 1: kyl elastic overtime basketball. But Miami had just seven healthy players.

862
00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:15,600
Speaker 1: They were forced to dress Gabe Vincent, who's out with

863
00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:17,759
Speaker 1: a knee injury. But you have to like meet that

864
00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:21,440
Speaker 1: NBA requirement to have eight players in uniforms, so he's dressed,

865
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:24,439
Speaker 1: but he can't play. Lowry played over fifty minutes. Thirty

866
00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:26,719
Speaker 1: six year old Kyle Lowry played over fifty minutes, had

867
00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:28,279
Speaker 1: a triple doubt, but played a really good game on

868
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:30,080
Speaker 1: that Friday night, but they came up short because they

869
00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 1: just didn't have enough bodies. And then Sunday, okay, they

870
00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:35,600
Speaker 1: got bam back, but they just got steamrolled by the

871
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:38,800
Speaker 1: Cavs one thirteen to eighty seven. So no Butler, still,

872
00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:41,920
Speaker 1: no hero. Duncan Robinson has a weird injury or I

873
00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:43,719
Speaker 1: think his finger got caught like in a jersey in

874
00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:46,480
Speaker 1: practice and stuff like that. Cleveland on a twenty one

875
00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:48,200
Speaker 1: to two run in the second quarter, they opened up

876
00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:51,080
Speaker 1: a nineteen point lead, pushed that advantage to thirty one

877
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:53,759
Speaker 1: in the second half and it was over. And the

878
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:55,880
Speaker 1: heater eleventh in the Eastern Conference right now, and a

879
00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:57,440
Speaker 1: lot of like they're missing all the other guys, I

880
00:40:57,480 --> 00:41:01,280
Speaker 1: just said, like their main guys, but you know there's

881
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:04,040
Speaker 1: there what seven wins here sort of like similar to

882
00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:06,680
Speaker 1: the sixers here where it's like just missing these guys,

883
00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:09,840
Speaker 1: you don't get the chance to actually grow as a team.

884
00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:12,120
Speaker 1: So a rough weekend for the Miami Heat. Here in

885
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:14,560
Speaker 1: a conference where a couple other teams were picking up

886
00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:16,040
Speaker 1: wins and separating themselves a little bit.

887
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:19,120
Speaker 2: It's interesting that they had to dress an eighth guy

888
00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:21,560
Speaker 2: and had to play because a couple of years ago. Yeah,

889
00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:24,240
Speaker 2: remember during the COVID era, if you had seven guys,

890
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:25,720
Speaker 2: you forfeit.

891
00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:27,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, play another day.

892
00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:32,400
Speaker 2: But I guess the reason is you could be making

893
00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:35,359
Speaker 2: up excuses, yeah, and just say now we don't want

894
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:37,759
Speaker 2: to play tonight. All our guys are injured. But it's

895
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:41,360
Speaker 2: interesting that I know in the COVID times you couldn't

896
00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:45,239
Speaker 2: suit up a guy, but because of COVID, but you know,

897
00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:48,240
Speaker 2: maybe you could just shove him down in the hallway

898
00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:50,560
Speaker 2: and say he's dressed, you know, like So it's it's

899
00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:53,720
Speaker 2: an interesting way about going about things. But you mentioned

900
00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:55,359
Speaker 2: that the Wizards get that when they win two games

901
00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:58,840
Speaker 2: this weekend. The Pacers get two wins as well this weekend,

902
00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:02,040
Speaker 2: I think the So those two teams are fifth and

903
00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:04,279
Speaker 2: sixth in the Eastern Conference right now, the Pacers and

904
00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:07,359
Speaker 2: the Wizards. The Pacers could have been a loser because

905
00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:11,600
Speaker 2: Aaron Nesmith, he got the postgame interview on Friday, everybody

906
00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:15,160
Speaker 2: excited dumping water on Aaron ne Smith and he slips

907
00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:18,440
Speaker 2: on the water could have been a big growing injury, right, Yeah,

908
00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:22,759
Speaker 2: but he stood up and he was okay, f y,

909
00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:23,560
Speaker 2: gotta be careful.

910
00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:27,640
Speaker 1: So you're saying, yeah, too much water, put towels down.

911
00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:30,800
Speaker 2: I guess he's not hadn't had a lot of postgame

912
00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:35,480
Speaker 2: interview experience because don't move, Yeah, don't try he's out there.

913
00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:38,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's do a little injury round up. You already

914
00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:41,239
Speaker 1: said the Tyrese MAXWW one missing approximately three to four

915
00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:43,240
Speaker 1: weeks with a foot injury. But we also had Grizzlies

916
00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:46,399
Speaker 1: Jahn Morant he's week to week with a Grade one

917
00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:49,600
Speaker 1: left ankle sprain. Damian Lillard he's gonna be sidelined once

918
00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:52,720
Speaker 1: again for one to two weeks with the new calf strain.

919
00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:56,200
Speaker 1: And then we had Jazz guard Mike Conley Jr. Avoiding

920
00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:59,680
Speaker 1: major knee injury, but he's gonna miss at least two weeks.

921
00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:03,160
Speaker 1: Four guards here. Sort of a tough question to answer,

922
00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:05,120
Speaker 1: But Trey, which one of those is the most concerning

923
00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:09,920
Speaker 1: to you of John Morant, Lillard, Mike Conley or Tyre Spikes.

924
00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:14,480
Speaker 3: I think it's John Morant just because his concern kind

925
00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:16,759
Speaker 3: of like builds on other concerns. But the Grizzlies with

926
00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:20,720
Speaker 3: Desmond Baine already out, Jared Jackson Junior is returning from injury,

927
00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:23,239
Speaker 3: so he's kind of a halftime player right now. And

928
00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:26,360
Speaker 3: the Grizzlies are struggling honestly already. They've lost three of

929
00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:29,480
Speaker 3: their last four and they're terrible in fourth quarters right now.

930
00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:33,000
Speaker 3: Keith Parrish at Fast Break Breakfast mentioned that in their

931
00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:35,719
Speaker 3: last five games, the Grizzlies are last in points, three

932
00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:38,960
Speaker 3: pointers made, and every single shooting percentage, and that's been

933
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,920
Speaker 3: mostly with John Moran out there. He missed their last game.

934
00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:44,560
Speaker 3: But if he's not going to be out there for

935
00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:47,160
Speaker 3: fourth quarters, if they don't have Desmond Bain out there

936
00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:49,360
Speaker 3: for fourth quarters, it's gonna be pretty tough on offense

937
00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:52,440
Speaker 3: for Memphis. Also, their bench just isn't as good as

938
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:54,759
Speaker 3: it was last season. They were awesome when job mess

939
00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:57,080
Speaker 3: time last year, I think twenty one and four something

940
00:43:57,120 --> 00:44:01,000
Speaker 3: along those lines. But Kyle Anderson's gone, Anthony Mountain's gone.

941
00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:03,160
Speaker 3: Now they're playing a ton of rookies and guys who

942
00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:05,879
Speaker 3: were kind of on the outskirts of the rotation last year.

943
00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:08,600
Speaker 3: They haven't been as good as the Vets were in

944
00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:11,960
Speaker 3: the twenty twenty two season, So if John misses a

945
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:15,080
Speaker 3: lot of time here, it could be tough stuff I

946
00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:16,279
Speaker 3: think for Memphis.

947
00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:19,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Desmond Ban's got a toe injury, so he's

948
00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:21,120
Speaker 2: not gonna rush back from that. He's got like a

949
00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:23,399
Speaker 2: week to two weeks at least for him to come back.

950
00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:27,880
Speaker 2: Along with Jaron Jackson Junior. It's piling up there. I

951
00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:31,720
Speaker 2: feel like the Damian Lillard one, even though the reports

952
00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:34,200
Speaker 2: are from Chris Haynes that it's not the same part

953
00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:37,040
Speaker 2: of his calf, same calf, but not the same part

954
00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:40,239
Speaker 2: the soulless muscle. The what I had to look that

955
00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:43,799
Speaker 2: baby up, wasn't familiar with the soulas muscle, but apparently

956
00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:46,240
Speaker 2: it shouldn't be anything to worry about. But it seems

957
00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:49,400
Speaker 2: like a recurring injury, same part of his body. So

958
00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:52,560
Speaker 2: even though the six the Blazers will be fine in

959
00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:55,160
Speaker 2: terms of picking it up with all their dudes, still

960
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:59,799
Speaker 2: a slight worry because it's again a similar stiffness in

961
00:44:59,840 --> 00:45:02,279
Speaker 2: his right calf. So I'm just just a little worried

962
00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:03,880
Speaker 2: about Dame coming back and being fresh.

963
00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:06,600
Speaker 1: I think to answer the question I asked you guys,

964
00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:09,000
Speaker 1: because you already talked about it, But the sixers here

965
00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:11,120
Speaker 1: with MAXI. This is like the longest of all of

966
00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:13,480
Speaker 1: these injuries in theory, missing up to a month, and

967
00:45:13,520 --> 00:45:15,279
Speaker 1: they already have hardened out, and you went through all

968
00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:17,239
Speaker 1: these other guys on their roster that are not in

969
00:45:17,239 --> 00:45:20,040
Speaker 1: the lineup, like it's going to be Shake Milton time here, Babe.

970
00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:22,480
Speaker 1: Can he come through? He had a really good game

971
00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:24,480
Speaker 1: on Friday. You have fifteen points in six assists. But

972
00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:27,960
Speaker 1: he's going to get an opportunity here feeding the ball

973
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:29,440
Speaker 1: to Jowell and be and just seeing if he can

974
00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:31,640
Speaker 1: carry them to some of these victories. But man, they

975
00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:34,839
Speaker 1: are banged up because Bibel and Melton they're playing, they're

976
00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:37,840
Speaker 1: suiting up, but they're not even like practicing. So just

977
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:41,080
Speaker 1: everybody right now is banged up or has the flu

978
00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:44,319
Speaker 1: like I do. The black people missing time.

979
00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:46,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, and the college injury, I think is a worry

980
00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:48,720
Speaker 2: just because when you've got a team like the Jazz

981
00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:52,600
Speaker 2: who rely on so many guys to be very good,

982
00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:54,960
Speaker 2: and then you take one of those guys and they

983
00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:58,719
Speaker 2: were able to win against the Blazers, but Condy number

984
00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:02,200
Speaker 2: one older, So it's a couple of weeks, could be

985
00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:03,040
Speaker 2: longer than that.

986
00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:04,440
Speaker 1: He just made.

987
00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:07,279
Speaker 2: Everything go even though he's the fifth name we talk

988
00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:09,560
Speaker 2: about when we talk about the Utah Jazz this season,

989
00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:13,719
Speaker 2: he makes every single play for them. Everything does go

990
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:16,160
Speaker 2: through him, even though Clarkson is their other guard. So

991
00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:20,000
Speaker 2: I'm worried about a Clarkson led team doing what they've

992
00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:21,440
Speaker 2: been doing. So that is a worry.

993
00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:24,960
Speaker 1: The other crazy thing from this weekend and we witnessed

994
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:27,240
Speaker 1: it down at the Fortress and then it happened basically

995
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:31,359
Speaker 1: again in the Mavericks Nuggets game. Was this idea of

996
00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:34,239
Speaker 1: like playing the end of the second quarter at the

997
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:36,239
Speaker 1: start of the third quarter. A couple times. We saw

998
00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:39,320
Speaker 1: it in Atlanta. Yeah, it was like point three seconds.

999
00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:42,239
Speaker 1: Nothing really happened, but it was like this thing where like, well,

1000
00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:44,239
Speaker 1: technically we got a point three second there and let's

1001
00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:45,880
Speaker 1: just do it okay here. It was like, wow, we

1002
00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:48,680
Speaker 1: don't see this very often. And then last night, I

1003
00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:50,680
Speaker 1: don't know if you saw this. Oh, and it was

1004
00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:53,440
Speaker 1: pretty instrumental because who was it, Chanshar or whatever. He

1005
00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:56,160
Speaker 1: hit like a sixty foot bomb and they ended up

1006
00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:58,560
Speaker 1: winning by one. So like they redid what happened was

1007
00:46:58,600 --> 00:46:59,960
Speaker 1: Luca hit a three at the end of the set

1008
00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:02,879
Speaker 1: second quarter. They eventually looked at it and they're like, oh,

1009
00:47:02,920 --> 00:47:04,839
Speaker 1: we think he was out of bounds. Okay, well then

1010
00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:07,080
Speaker 1: we got to play the final three seconds Denver ball.

1011
00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:09,120
Speaker 1: And so they did this at the start of the

1012
00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:10,680
Speaker 1: third quarter. Again, we're like, I mean the end of

1013
00:47:10,680 --> 00:47:12,480
Speaker 1: the second quarter, but the start of the second half,

1014
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:15,520
Speaker 1: and he hits the three and it ends up mattering

1015
00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:16,160
Speaker 1: in the final score.

1016
00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:20,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, because they went Yeah, fellow Slovenian lotco Chanchar Apparently

1017
00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:22,719
Speaker 2: I heard Keith per say this on the Daily Dime.

1018
00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:27,480
Speaker 2: That's the play they run for chan Char. He is there,

1019
00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:30,319
Speaker 2: is there, Chris Bosh from deep Yeah, from he is there,

1020
00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:34,280
Speaker 2: fifty to seventy foot specials, that's who. That's who shoots

1021
00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:37,560
Speaker 2: their shots. And so yeah, I saw that tweet coming through.

1022
00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:40,120
Speaker 2: You never see this them playing at the beginning of

1023
00:47:40,160 --> 00:47:44,160
Speaker 2: the third quarter. I was about to say, we saw that,

1024
00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:46,840
Speaker 2: we just saw that, but it was it was a

1025
00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:50,160
Speaker 2: little different. They came back in our game. There's half

1026
00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:53,440
Speaker 2: second they just inbounded it and the fake buzzer went.

1027
00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:56,480
Speaker 2: Yeah for the second quarter. This time they ran a

1028
00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:59,160
Speaker 2: play and dude hits a three point shot.

1029
00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:01,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, because in the Saturday game, the Hawks just left

1030
00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:04,120
Speaker 1: the floor the Raptors were hanging around if you remember

1031
00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:06,120
Speaker 1: before they went into the locker room, and then they

1032
00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:07,760
Speaker 1: finally were like, all right, I guess.

1033
00:48:07,600 --> 00:48:09,480
Speaker 3: Well, it's like a tip at the end of half

1034
00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:12,839
Speaker 3: or something. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's really two seconds on Yeah,

1035
00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:16,319
Speaker 3: very strangely happened. They charged that one to the game. Yeah,

1036
00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:19,040
Speaker 3: two seconds is fine. I mean two seconds something that

1037
00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:21,799
Speaker 3: can obviously happen. The career highlight of lock Cochon Char.

1038
00:48:21,960 --> 00:48:23,799
Speaker 1: Oh what a name.

1039
00:48:24,040 --> 00:48:27,279
Speaker 3: Lock co Chonchar is actually Slovenian for John Conchart.

1040
00:48:28,400 --> 00:48:31,440
Speaker 1: Well done. All right, those are our winners and losers

1041
00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:33,200
Speaker 1: on the NBA weekend. Look, we left a lot out

1042
00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:34,759
Speaker 1: there on the table. So you tell us in the

1043
00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:37,520
Speaker 1: stream team or listening later, tweet at us at noting

1044
00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:39,520
Speaker 1: think or leaving in the YouTube comments, who are your

1045
00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:42,960
Speaker 1: big winners and losers of the NBA weekend? We got

1046
00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:44,319
Speaker 1: to take one more break when we come back, pick

1047
00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:48,799
Speaker 1: the results and tweeted the night. Okay, picking results from

1048
00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:52,080
Speaker 1: Friday night. We had the Thunder Grizzlies game. Memphis was

1049
00:48:52,640 --> 00:48:55,480
Speaker 1: favorited in this by six and a half points. Task

1050
00:48:55,520 --> 00:48:58,080
Speaker 1: took the grizz and they covered for you. Thunder kept

1051
00:48:58,080 --> 00:48:59,640
Speaker 1: it close, but pulled away in the end, So it's

1052
00:48:59,640 --> 00:49:01,359
Speaker 1: a lost for Trey and I. I'm nine and four,

1053
00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:03,840
Speaker 1: Trey six and seven, you're four and nine. Here in

1054
00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:06,879
Speaker 1: the month of November, and here's tonight's game test.

1055
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:09,760
Speaker 2: Big line. The Bucks are favored by eight point five

1056
00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:12,759
Speaker 2: points at home to the Portland Trail of Blazers, who

1057
00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:17,440
Speaker 2: will be without Damian Lillard, hence the monstrous line. Skeets

1058
00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:19,359
Speaker 2: and I still think the Bucks can cover win by

1059
00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:21,359
Speaker 2: nine or more. Tray, you got the Blazers to lose

1060
00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:23,719
Speaker 2: by eight or less or come out with the victory. White,

1061
00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:25,319
Speaker 2: Why are you like the Blazers in this one?

1062
00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:26,600
Speaker 1: Tray? Dwayne's in town?

1063
00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:28,520
Speaker 2: Uh huh, he's a Bucks fan.

1064
00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:30,640
Speaker 1: Okay, I can't be pulling for the Bucks while he's

1065
00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:32,319
Speaker 1: in town. Are you kidding your father in law?

1066
00:49:32,360 --> 00:49:35,440
Speaker 3: That's exactly right. Yeah, So I'm going I'm going Portland here.

1067
00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:37,960
Speaker 3: I'm hoping it's a guy's being dudes kind of win,

1068
00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:40,520
Speaker 3: you know, no dame, So everybody else's got to step

1069
00:49:40,560 --> 00:49:41,440
Speaker 3: up and keep it within.

1070
00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:44,840
Speaker 2: Eight eight points eight Eastern start. Dwayne will not be

1071
00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:49,960
Speaker 2: sleeping until at least halftime. Probably is he a late night.

1072
00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:53,320
Speaker 3: Second second quarter Dwayne will tell me he's going to bed, okay,

1073
00:49:53,680 --> 00:49:57,560
Speaker 3: but then fourth quarter he'll wake up. Yeah yeah, I'll

1074
00:49:57,560 --> 00:49:59,279
Speaker 3: be down there and watch it anyway. So I'll just

1075
00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:02,320
Speaker 3: I'll just come out every every eight to twelve minutes?

1076

1118
00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:51,239
Speaker 2: quotes light the beam, but I thought, Wow, what are.

1119
00:51:51,200 --> 00:51:52,799
Speaker 1: You doing up there? Dustin or changing the light?

1120
00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:58,480

00:51:58,600 --> 00:52:01,319
Speaker 1: You got you got work man? Yeah, I just work.

1122
00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:03,200
Speaker 2: I sweat turned off the heat in the house. I

00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:07,360

1128
00:52:26,480 --> 00:52:29,080
Speaker 1: But our tweet the night is from at CJ zero.

1129
00:52:29,960 --> 00:52:32,160
Speaker 1: Just a simple tweet that made me chuckle. Okay, it's

1130
00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:35,480
Speaker 1: got a photo and the tweet says Chris Finch looks

1131
00:52:35,480 --> 00:52:38,400
Speaker 1: like a guy talking to a homeowner about a roofing quote,

1132
00:52:39,360 --> 00:52:43,799
Speaker 1: and that's spot on. That's exactly what it looks like. Yeah,

1133
00:52:44,719 --> 00:52:46,920
Speaker 1: it's gonna cost you a little jeez. I gotta get

1134
00:52:46,960 --> 00:52:48,319
Speaker 1: up there and take a look at it. It's got

1135
00:52:48,320 --> 00:52:52,239
Speaker 1: the arms crossed. He's definitely got a ladder. There's some

1136
00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:55,120
Speaker 1: great comments underneath this too. Somebody said, but you got

1137
00:52:55,200 --> 00:52:57,919
Speaker 1: to ask yourself, how is that system gonna perform over time?

1138
00:52:58,880 --> 00:52:59,000
Speaker 2: Uh?

1139
00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:02,120
Speaker 1: He looks like somebody said he gets his snacks at minards.

1140
00:53:03,920 --> 00:53:05,920
Speaker 1: And then somebody said, that's Johnny Lawrence. If you want

1141
00:53:05,920 --> 00:53:09,799
Speaker 1: to throw it back up there, Jerome, it's gotta I

1142
00:53:09,800 --> 00:53:12,200
Speaker 1: guess a comparison to Johnny Lawrence.

1143
00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:15,080
Speaker 3: A little bit, a little bit of his resemblance to him.

1144
00:53:15,160 --> 00:53:15,440
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1145
00:53:15,600 --> 00:53:17,719
Speaker 3: I also was reminded, didn't we have a cold open

1146
00:53:17,719 --> 00:53:20,239
Speaker 3: where somebody was like dressing their dog up as like

1147
00:53:20,320 --> 00:53:23,040
Speaker 3: the standard white guy during fall. That involved putting on

1148
00:53:23,080 --> 00:53:25,200
Speaker 3: a flannel overerneath a hoodie and some jeans.

1149
00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:28,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what he's wearing. Yeah, that

1150
00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:32,200
Speaker 1: was that. Basically, Chris Finch was dressed like my dad

1151
00:53:32,200 --> 00:53:37,960
Speaker 1: at his most dressed up, like what you're wearing basically

1152
00:53:38,040 --> 00:53:42,560
Speaker 1: if you yeah, yeah, that's very dressed up for Johnny.

1153
00:53:42,520 --> 00:53:45,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, he has a flannel look, arms crossed. Now he

1154
00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:47,320
Speaker 2: is the roofer in this situation.

1155
00:53:47,360 --> 00:53:50,080
Speaker 1: Absolutely, he's talking to the homeowner. Yeah.

1156
00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:53,240
Speaker 2: Every roofer in those commercials has their arms crossed.

1157
00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:58,520
Speaker 1: Right, It's totally nonsense. Gotta figure out the quote.

1158
00:53:58,680 --> 00:54:02,400
Speaker 2: Gotta get the defensive position though. Yeah, yeah, you're you

1159
00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:04,040
Speaker 2: wanting to be a little more open, like, hey, I could,

1160
00:54:04,320 --> 00:54:05,520
Speaker 2: I'm gonna do good things for you.

1161
00:54:05,600 --> 00:54:10,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I want my roof closed. All right, let's
