I do 16 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 2: miss it. 17 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 3: I agree, I agree, let's bring back Also was it 18 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 3: was like full commercials, just people say what's up? Sometimes 19 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:15,199 Speaker 3: it's still cool. 20 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 2: Also cool. We're going around too, baby. We will preview 21 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 2: two round two series Nuggets, Timberwolves, Nick's Pacers, and Jerome 22 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 2: will be joining us a little later because he has 23 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 2: an announcement to make. 24 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 6: It's a little tease. 25 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 3: It's so dramatic. 26 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:37,319 Speaker 2: It was also dramatic seventy six Ers Knicks game six 27 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 2: Thursday night. Let's start with that. Let's start with how 28 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 2: this next team got to round two because I thought 29 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 2: that was art tree, that was art. It was beautiful. 30 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,440 Speaker 2: Because the Knicks got up big in that first quarter, 31 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 2: smacking them around twenty two. It felt like they were 32 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 2: the artist. But then here comes Nick Nurse with his paintbrush. 33 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 2: He says, buddy, heal, do you haven't played in days? 34 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 2: Let me freestyle here and put that all over this painting. 35 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 3: Oh. 36 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 2: I don't know why I'm canvassing right now, but yeah, 37 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 2: he's cooking. But then Jalen Brunson leading the way, then 38 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:14,720 Speaker 2: missus a free throw in the final minute because you listen, 39 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,919 Speaker 2: imperfect art is still art. Somehow, someway, he was able 40 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 2: to get that ball to Josh Hart for a three 41 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:25,359 Speaker 2: right after Josh Art. Josh Art. Well done. So the 42 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 2: Knicks advance of the second round and back to back 43 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:29,640 Speaker 2: years for the first time since two thousand. I like 44 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 2: seeing that because that's a freaking old that's as old 45 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 2: time as the waz app commercials. It feels like, what 46 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 2: did you make of this game? 47 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 3: Trey Jalen Brunson, Man, this guy is incredible. We did 48 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 3: our players who are going to be breakout stars. Heading 49 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 3: into the playoffs, people were getting on me saying, you're 50 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 3: picking Brunson as a breakout star. The guy was an 51 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,640 Speaker 3: All star already. We all know he's good. Did you 52 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 3: know he was this good? Did you know he was 53 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 3: Michael Jordan? Because the run that Jalen Brunson ended this 54 00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 3: series on is impressive. Four straight games of nine or 55 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 3: more points, the first guy to do it since Michael 56 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 3: Jordan in nineteen ninety three. Jordan was also the previous 57 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 3: guy to do it back in nineteen ninety as well, 58 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 3: and Brunson was so clutched throughout this series and especially 59 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:13,359 Speaker 3: in this game. He hit that and one with about 60 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 3: a minute left where he got fouled from behind by 61 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 3: I think it was Ubray. He did miss the free throw, 62 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 3: and then just like Michael Jordan, passing to John Pack 63 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 3: center Steve Kerr, he finds Josh Hart at the top 64 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:25,679 Speaker 3: of the key for that three pointer. I'm telling you, 65 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 3: Josh Hart, he didn't necessarily want to shoot it, I 66 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 3: don't think because they ran a pick and roll they 67 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 3: got the ball out of Brunson's hands the first time 68 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 3: he gets it to heart, but then Brunston goes and 69 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 3: gets it back. They do the exact same thing, get 70 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 3: the ball out of Brunson. Hans again dishes it to heart. 71 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 3: He looks at Devin Chinzo on the right wing, fakes 72 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,520 Speaker 3: a pass wide open from the top of the key, 73 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 3: knocks it down, goes for the J. R. Smith esque celebration. 74 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 3: Just a fitting way to end this series, I thought, 75 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 3: because in the beginning of the series, the Sixers were 76 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 3: happy to leave Josh Hart open and he was knocking 77 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 3: down a whole bunch of threes massive in their first 78 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 3: couple of wins in the series, and then they left 79 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 3: him opened late again in this series, and that was 80 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 3: all she wrote. Great stuff from the Knicks fun series. Man, 81 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 3: you called it like after game one, He's like, this 82 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 3: is the best series. This was the best series. 83 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, we got lucky because the Sixers proved to be 84 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 2: a lot better than a seventh a seventh seed. They 85 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 2: were just damn good and made this entertaining. Every single game. 86 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 2: Every single game was a fight. It was a scrap. 87 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,359 Speaker 2: It did feel like old Knicks basketball, like nineties and 88 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 2: two thousand ball, because they were fighting every single possession 89 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 2: and just to see what Jalen Brunson did. Even though 90 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 2: he started this series slow. He wasn't hot at all, 91 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:37,280 Speaker 2: shot eight of twenty six in the first game, eight 92 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 2: of twenty nine in the second game, but then turned 93 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 2: it up thirty nine, forty seven, forty and forty one 94 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 2: in the last four games. Everything was going through him. 95 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 2: Everything was comfortable with the knicks. I did like how 96 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 2: Tibbs a couple of times ran a couple off ball 97 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 2: screens to get Brunton off the ball and then the 98 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 2: double coms so he is able to pass it to somebody, 99 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 2: and he was able to get it to Josh Hart 100 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 2: for that one where Josh Hart faked pass and was 101 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 2: wide freaking open and himself in Josh Art, he went, 102 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 2: I called him Mart, Yeah, just because you did. He 103 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 2: went through a bit bit of a roller coaster himself, 104 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 2: because he was hot to start the series, as you said, 105 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 2: then got super cold, then got super hot, and I 106 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 2: thought this was the nixt game for sure, the way 107 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 2: it started that four different guys hit the fourth first 108 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:26,159 Speaker 2: baskets for them like they were just so versatile. And 109 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 2: Dante de Vincenzo as well, he started cold the last 110 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 2: couple of games ice Cold, hadn't hit a first half 111 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 2: three the last three games, and then Bang Bang Bang 112 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 2: hit his first three early and then three threes in 113 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 2: the opening quarter, five of nine from three in the 114 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,039 Speaker 2: game when he was three of seventeen the last three 115 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 2: games three pointing, three point shooting impresses stuff. The big 116 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 2: block on him, beat, I mean that was a violent blockage. Yeah, 117 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 2: that's why this was art. I mean, there's just so 118 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:57,679 Speaker 2: many things going on in that arena where Knicks fans 119 00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 2: were still pretty prevalent. 120 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 3: You could hear them, yeah, you could hear, but I 121 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 3: will say, yeah, I thought it was more Philly fans. 122 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 3: It was definitely sounded louder for Philadelphia and this one, 123 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 3: and you got to give credit to them too. They 124 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,480 Speaker 3: were down by eight with two minutes and forty one 125 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,480 Speaker 3: seconds left. They battled back a lot of big plays 126 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 3: by Kelly u Brays, Tyrese Maxi finally got on track. 127 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,480 Speaker 3: But man, Devincenzo was huge in this game. Hadn't had 128 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 3: a great series, finally shot the ball well and then, 129 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,239 Speaker 3: like you're saying, his defense was great, the block on Unbid, 130 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 3: but also I thought he was given Maxi some problems, 131 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 3: especially in the first half. Maxi did get on tracked 132 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 3: in the fourth quarter, but Devincenzo had a huge game 133 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 3: playing where all those Villanova guys are obviously pretty comfortable. 134 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 3: You know, you got Jalen Brunson talking trash to Kenny 135 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 3: Smith about winning the title back in twenty sixteen over 136 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 3: North Carolina because he's able to look up in the 137 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,600 Speaker 3: rafters and see the banners that he hung there. This 138 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 3: was this was really great. You saw the stack going 139 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 3: around all over last night. The Knicks won this series 140 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 3: by one point, right six fifty to six forty nine. 141 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 3: It felt like that great that it came down to 142 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 3: the final few seconds here, and look the Knicks learn. 143 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,159 Speaker 3: They said, we're not giving Tyrese Maxey a runway to 144 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 3: pull up for three. Every time he caught the ball 145 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:05,160 Speaker 3: in the back court when Philadelphia was down three, fouling 146 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:07,839 Speaker 3: him right away, putting two guys just in his way 147 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 3: to the point where they had to do the little 148 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 3: inbound play for Buddy Healed. He was clearly worried that 149 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 3: they were going to file him right away, so he 150 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 3: just chucks it up as fast as he could. Shot 151 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 3: didn't really have a chance, but I guess Buddy could 152 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 3: have made it because he was hot last night. 153 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, he was scorching hot, seventeen in the first half. Again, 154 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 2: didn't play the last two games, but Nick Nurse called 155 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 2: him out. Apparently tib said postgame that they wanted to 156 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 2: foul Tyres Maxi when he was in the back courting 157 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 2: Game five when he hit that shot. They did want 158 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 2: to foul him. That was the plan, but nobody heard it. 159 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 2: And obviously things went right for TIBs and everybody in 160 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 2: this game because they out rebounded the Sixers all four 161 00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 2: wins for the Knicks in this series. They played hard 162 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 2: in New York knick Ball. They out rebounded the Sixers 163 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 2: every time they won. And some credit to Joel Embiid 164 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 2: because I was a little worried for the Sixers because 165 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 2: he went to the locker room four minutes left in 166 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 2: the first quarter. I thought, Okay, this may be over 167 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 2: right here right now. We weren't getting a great Tyres 168 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 2: max game. But Embiid came back early in the second 169 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 2: quarter a big block of ogn and Obi and this 170 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 2: team was down double digits when he was scrapping. He 171 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 2: was fighting thirty nine and thirteen a steal in a block, 172 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 2: and when you zoom out. The guy played forty one 173 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 2: minutes a game in this series, thirty three points, eleven rebounds, 174 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 2: five assists, a steal, and a block and a half. 175 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 2: A good series for Embiid. The off season is extremely interesting. 176 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:40,680 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, what the heck is going to happen with 177 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 2: those seventy six ers because I know in your years 178 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 2: past he said it. Eventually Embiid's going to be on 179 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 2: the Miami Heat. I think he still has faith with 180 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 2: the seventy six ers. He sounds like it anyway, he's 181 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 2: got to. I mean, you see the way Maxie performed. 182 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 2: They're a great one to two punch because Maxi is 183 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 2: a good player when a beat is off the but 184 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 2: when they're together, he just plays off them perfectly. 185 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 3: We know the Sixers have a ton of cap space 186 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 3: and they got to get a star with that cap space. Obviously, 187 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 3: Paul George has been in the mix and one of 188 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,200 Speaker 3: the big rumors for them, but they need an upgrade 189 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 3: there because Tobias Harris was a literal zero in this game. 190 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 3: Paul Reid a literal zero in this game. Those guys 191 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 3: are probably not going to be Philadelphia seventy six ers 192 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 3: going forward, and you could just see the double edged 193 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 3: sword of Embid. I thought it was super clear in 194 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:28,079 Speaker 3: this game. With Maxie struggling in the first half and 195 00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 3: Bead had to do everything. He was doing everything. Nick 196 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:33,599 Speaker 3: Nurse tried to steal him a little rest at the 197 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 3: beginning of the fourth quarter, but he didn't get enough 198 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 3: because in the last six minutes, Embiid went one for 199 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 3: three from the field, but one make he got. They 200 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:41,319 Speaker 3: gave him the make because it was it was a 201 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,599 Speaker 3: three point game, and he just walked down og and 202 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 3: finished over the top of him no problem. Hit a 203 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 3: couple of free throws, but the Knicks were targeting, targeting 204 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 3: Embiid and pick and roll because he wasn't moving very well. 205 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 3: Dante DiVincenzo just had the blow by right by him 206 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,440 Speaker 3: for a lefty layup. Ojannobe dunked on his head. You know, 207 00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:59,680 Speaker 3: I guess Embiid didn't even jump for that one. But 208 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:02,559 Speaker 3: I thought this was a good series for Embiid, despite 209 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 3: the fact that he had some poor fourth quarters, including 210 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 3: this one. I would say like they were trying to 211 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 3: get him the ball in the last couple of possessions 212 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 3: and he was just getting it back to Maxie every 213 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 3: single time, but losing this game, this game six, the 214 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 3: way he played, the way he was able to battle 215 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 3: through injuries and Bell's palsy like this is a little 216 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 3: bit of a feather in his cap. I think this 217 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,200 Speaker 3: is one of his better playoff series, and losing in 218 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 3: game six much better than losing in game five. You 219 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 3: don't want to go home in a nine turnover game, 220 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 3: but if you lose at home in a closely contested 221 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 3: game when you're putting up thirty nine points, you can 222 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 3: live with that, especially considering he missed such a huge 223 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 3: chunk of the season and was just struggling to get 224 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 3: through the playoffs. 225 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 2: Anyways, Yes, you made it clear they need some support 226 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 2: besides Tyres Maxi and Joel Embiid and it is going 227 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:52,200 Speaker 2: to be interesting. As you said, Tobias Harris had zero points. 228 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 2: He is finally done with that monstrous contract everybody's been 229 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 2: talking about for years, five years, one to eighty. It's 230 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 2: officially done. But there's other two guys in the starting lineup, 231 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,080 Speaker 2: and Kyle Lowry and Kelly Ubrey who are on minimum 232 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 2: contracts that performed. Ubray was awesome in this one. The 233 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,320 Speaker 2: og block of him and then Uber blocking him right 234 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 2: back in the first quarter was awesome. Ubray was playing 235 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 2: really well against Jalen Brunts and I know the numbers 236 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:22,160 Speaker 2: are huge, but a guy we never talk about his 237 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 2: defense ever. In Kellyubray we played he played extremely hard. 238 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 2: So it's just interesting how they're going to make that 239 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 2: up because they go into the offseason and only the 240 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 2: Detroit Pistons are set to have more cap space than them. 241 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 2: They've got a lot of room. They're obviously going to 242 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 2: have to pay Tyresse Maxi, but you can go sign 243 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 2: other free agents. Like you said, if Paul George ops 244 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:46,560 Speaker 2: out of his Clippers contract, that guy that they were 245 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 2: just playing, og Anobi is a free agent. I don't 246 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,559 Speaker 2: know how you can peel him away from the Knicks. 247 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 2: That's unlikely, not very likely. Pascal Siakam if we'll talk 248 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 2: about the Pacers and the Knicks, but he is a 249 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 2: free agent, I don't know how that happens. They got 250 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 2: to do something, but yeah, it is likely those two 251 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 2: are together because he did say earlier this year about Maxi, 252 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 2: he's the face of the franchise. He's one of the 253 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 2: ten best players in the world. This year. As The 254 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 2: Athletic wrote about it, right after ten players. Is he 255 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:16,679 Speaker 2: is he one of the best, I don't know, but 256 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 2: he also talks about continuity all the time. They neat 257 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:23,959 Speaker 2: that desperately. Any other random notes from from this baby 258 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 2: or I mean we could talk about forever for this game, 259 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 2: Yeah we could. 260 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 3: But one little note I had is that Grant Hill 261 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 3: must have taken French at some point because Nick Patom 262 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 3: had a tip dunk and Grant Hill goes a little 263 00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 3: sivu play they run back the replay of it, jamapel batoum. 264 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 3: That was awesome. I was like, maybe not a lot 265 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 3: of French, but a little bit of French to be 266 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 3: to have those chambered just in case Batoom did everything. 267 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 2: Maybe Canadian Tamiya has helped him out, and say, Tamya's 268 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 2: on her on her tour right now. As I saw, 269 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 2: that was hilarious, though I heal. The Great Iron Eagle 270 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 2: on the play by play heard grand Hill say I 271 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 2: love Scott Foster, but it's okay to critique. Grand Hill 272 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 2: said it's okay to critique him, and an Iron Eagle said, well, 273 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 2: the close captioning said grand Hill, I love Scott Foster. 274 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,959 Speaker 2: Great stuff from Eagle and Granhill really good. Really good matchup. 275 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 3: Obvious series that was great. That was like one of 276 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 3: the best Eastern Conference first round series we've had since 277 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 3: probably like bol Celtics Oh nine, good call. Yeah, I 278 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 3: mean I don't necessarily remember every first round series from 279 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 3: the past fifteen years, but we haven't had a ton 280 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 3: of close ones. 281 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,319 Speaker 2: No, there's a reason for that, and it's because also 282 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 2: the Sixers were not a real seven seed. They're just 283 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:47,079 Speaker 2: so much better than that. That being said, it was 284 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 2: a doozy. It was a good one. Moving on to 285 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,720 Speaker 2: a Bucks Pacers that wasn't as good as this is 286 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:55,439 Speaker 2: the Knicks Sixers. 287 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,079 Speaker 3: It wasn't, but if you're a Pacers fan, it was. Yeah. 288 00:13:58,080 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 3: It sound like an exciting arena. 289 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 2: Yeah was as they ended the series there in Indiana 290 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 2: four to two, taking care of business at home. Your 291 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 2: takeaways from this one? 292 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 3: My takeaways were that Obi Toppin and TJ McConnell really 293 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,679 Speaker 3: won this game with the Pacers. They came in, they 294 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 3: were pushing the pace. I thought TJ McConnell was always 295 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 3: in the lane, like they could not stop him from penetrating. 296 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 3: A lot of it was Dame Lillard. He was playing 297 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 3: through an achilles injury, not the greatest defender, probably a 298 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 3: little slower playing through that as well, and TJ took 299 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:31,359 Speaker 3: advantage of it. I think Toppin and TJ McConnell averaged 300 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 3: twenty points per game added together twenty one yesterday for 301 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 3: Obie topp and he hit three threes as well. Was 302 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,320 Speaker 3: running the court in transition, got a bunch of dunks 303 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 3: than twenty points nine assists for TJ McConnell. We had 304 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 3: that take in the middle of the lane where like 305 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 3: Bobby Portis almost wraps him up, he rips it away 306 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:50,440 Speaker 3: from him, hits the fade away and then just screams. 307 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 3: That was incredible to see him out tough a guy 308 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 3: like Bobby Portis. Great stuff from the Pacers to play 309 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 3: their game, because I thought in games four and five 310 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 3: it was more of a Bucks style game, much much slower. 311 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 3: The post ups were there, but when McConnell and Toppin 312 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 3: checked in at the end of the first quarter into 313 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 3: the second, they were so fast they were running as 314 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:12,480 Speaker 3: much as they possibly could that the Bucks were completely 315 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 3: out of their game. They abandoned the post ups. They 316 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 3: were trying to catch up from the three point line 317 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 3: and they just couldn't do it. 318 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, Damian Lillard did look back or sorry, look good 319 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:24,360 Speaker 2: coming back from the injury. But you made a good 320 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 2: point about him being able to defend on speed, because yes, 321 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 2: the Bucks were leading in that first quarter until TJ 322 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:33,720 Speaker 2: McConnell and Obi Topping of all people come off the 323 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 2: bench and boom. And I do find it interesting. Lillard 324 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 2: was asked about the off season and he said it's 325 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 2: going to be a better off season than last year 326 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 2: because last year, quote he goes, last year, I couldn't 327 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 2: do certain things because I couldn't get hurt because I 328 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 2: knew I was going to be traded. Find that very interesting. 329 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 3: Usually I'm doing stuff in the off season where I'm 330 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 3: guaranteed to get her. 331 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:55,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, take yeah. 332 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 3: But it was a weird season for the Bucks and 333 00:15:58,200 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 3: some like you know, they thought they were gonna be 334 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 3: having Drew Holiday going into this season, so they built 335 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 3: their team around Drew Holiday last second trade for Dame Lillard, 336 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,240 Speaker 3: and that's a big time change in player type, basically 337 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:13,480 Speaker 3: flipping offense for defense, and they built like an offensive 338 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 3: team around Drew, thinking we're gonna be able to play defense. 339 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 3: We drew around here, But then it turned out they 340 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 3: just had an absolutely flammable backcourt. 341 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,240 Speaker 2: Yes, with Malik Beasley beside him, So that's got to 342 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 2: be a big change going into the offseason. But TJ 343 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 2: McConnell lighting up that backcourt was phenomenal. Yeah, career height 344 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 2: in playoff points twenty points in this one. He tied 345 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 2: his playoff high with nine assists at four steals and 346 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 2: what was that three at the end of the quarter. 347 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 2: You don't see TJ McConnell shoot threes. He just lined 348 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 2: it up okay and wide open. Bang hits a three, 349 00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 2: and then the first possession of the fourth quarter, Bang 350 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 2: hits another one. He almost pulled like an Alvarado type 351 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 2: steel after scoring he got one in the back court. 352 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 2: Phenomenal stuff. Just pushing, just pushing, just pushing. He was 353 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 2: not impressed by those games that you just said by 354 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 2: game five. In game five, he just didn't feel like 355 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:04,879 Speaker 2: they were playing like themselves. And Obi top and a 356 00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 2: career playoff high for that guy. And he said, TJ 357 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 2: actually helped me today, told me to be aggressive, told 358 00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 2: me to be myself. Hey, that helps, yes, So forty 359 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:15,920 Speaker 2: one points off the bench from those two guys, they 360 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 2: destroyed the Bucks bench. The Bucks bench literally did not 361 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:20,200 Speaker 2: do much. 362 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 3: I mean really five points. I mean they got some, 363 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,639 Speaker 3: you know, a few baskets here and there. Yeah, in 364 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 3: garbage time. But Malik Beasley played twenty two minutes, he 365 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:29,640 Speaker 3: went one for five, didn't hit a three, pat conent 366 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:32,640 Speaker 3: and played sixteen minutes. He scored three points, hit one three. 367 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:36,160 Speaker 3: They just didn't They didn't look like they were competitive 368 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:37,920 Speaker 3: at all against the Pacers bench. 369 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, they needed something from Beasley just because you look 370 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 2: up and down. Yes, it's nice to see Danilo Gallinari 371 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:46,360 Speaker 2: out there, but he's just not going to be able 372 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 2: to crush it in the playoffs. I was in New York. Nick, 373 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 2: I'm trying to think of Brentson is the best New 374 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 2: York Knick since since those days. I think he's better 375 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 2: than Carmelo already, and Danilo couldn't do it. Yeah, now 376 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 2: it's a fish because Carmela won one playoff series with 377 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 2: the Knicks. Now Jolen Brunson has been able to win two. 378 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 2: It's official, even though it was official before the offseason 379 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:12,920 Speaker 2: or the postseason. I should say any other notes from 380 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,520 Speaker 2: this one, because you know what was cool is just 381 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 2: how many Pacers played well in this game. That was 382 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,879 Speaker 2: like the regular season Pacers because it was Tyr's Aliburn 383 00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 2: didn't have to be incredible at all. He had seventeen 384 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 2: in this one. He had twelve, eighteen, twenty four and 385 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:29,439 Speaker 2: seventeen in the wins, just because of the support that 386 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:32,399 Speaker 2: he got from guys like his backup point guard, who 387 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:34,679 Speaker 2: I didn't even know if he was going to be 388 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:37,240 Speaker 2: the backup point guard after the trade deadline, because I 389 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 2: thought they were going with Nemhar But TJ. McConnell was awesome, 390 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:43,159 Speaker 2: and Obi top and former Nick going to play the Knicks. 391 00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:46,440 Speaker 2: The brother plays for the Knicks. That's exciting stuff. Any 392 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 2: other notes from this one. 393 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, we got to do a little bit of 394 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 3: an Instigator draft update here. Bobby Portis picked up another 395 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,679 Speaker 3: technical foul. Yes, that's another point for you. You're up 396 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 3: to four all from Bobby Portis all from Bobby. That's 397 00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 3: pretty impressive. And then JD, we got to run this 398 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 3: Patrick Beverley thing here, a little nonsense from Patrick Beverly 399 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:05,400 Speaker 3: at the end of the game. I don't know what's 400 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,639 Speaker 3: going on. He's obviously getting into the mix with the 401 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 3: Pacers fan and he throws the ball at a guy 402 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:15,120 Speaker 3: who he misses, and then throws it again. So Beverly 403 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:18,240 Speaker 3: didn't get any texts or anything for this, because you 404 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 3: know the game was over. He's sitting on the bench 405 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 3: down twenty with two and a half minutes left. But 406 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:24,440 Speaker 3: clearly there's going to be some sort of discipline from 407 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:24,920 Speaker 3: the NBA. 408 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:25,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, something. 409 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,200 Speaker 3: It'll at least be a fine, I have to imagine. 410 00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 3: But I could also see him being suspended to start 411 00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 3: next season a game like Steph Curry got suspended once 412 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 3: for throwing his mouth guard in frustration, right, and like 413 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:38,280 Speaker 3: it hit a fan. They're like, sorry, man, you can't 414 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:41,480 Speaker 3: throw things and hit fans, even a mouthguard that anybody 415 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,359 Speaker 3: would be excited to get from Steph Curry's very own mouth. 416 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:48,440 Speaker 3: But I assume that something's gonna happen with Beverly eventually. 417 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:50,680 Speaker 3: But you know, the Bucks are bounced from the playoffs, 418 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:52,120 Speaker 3: so it doesn't matter this year. But I think we'll 419 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:54,440 Speaker 3: still give Skeets the points whenever the punishment comes down. 420 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 2: Mm hmm, good call, Very very lenient of you to 421 00:19:58,320 --> 00:19:58,920 Speaker 2: give him the point. 422 00:19:58,920 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 3: He just got to wait and see. 423 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, he he literally fired the ball at the fan 424 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:06,159 Speaker 2: as hard as yeah, and the fan has got his 425 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:08,879 Speaker 2: hands up. He's ready for it. So I don't know 426 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 2: if he instigated anything, but Beverly clearly shouldn't have done that. 427 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 3: Now. 428 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 2: Jake Crowder even got into Patrick Beverly's face basically saying 429 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:19,200 Speaker 2: something like, what's up? What are you doing to throw 430 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 2: a ball at a fan like that? Yeah, Beverly may 431 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 2: be some suspended next season, but it's going to be 432 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:28,200 Speaker 2: on another team. I think Beverly's done with the Milwaukee Bucks. 433 00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:30,119 Speaker 2: That was a good quick run, but they got to 434 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:32,920 Speaker 2: get they got to get way more athletic. 435 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 3: Yes, they do, all right, So actually I lied to you. 436 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 3: Steph Curry is only fined for his for his mouthguard, 437 00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 3: though he may have been ejected from the game. He 438 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 3: was ejected from a game for throwing his mouth guard. Nonetheless, 439 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 3: something's gonna happen with Beverly, and I feel like there 440 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 3: should be some sort of points rewarded here. We'll see 441 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:50,440 Speaker 3: what they come down with. But you're totally right. The 442 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 3: Bucks got to get a lot more athletic, and I 443 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 3: wonder if that means moving off of Brook Lopez, like 444 00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 3: he's been around with the Bucks for such a long time. 445 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:01,639 Speaker 3: He's part of originally the Core four, which now includes 446 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 3: Dame Lillard instead of Drew Holliday. But they brought him 447 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:07,679 Speaker 3: back last season even though the Houston Rockets were chasing 448 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:10,679 Speaker 3: after him, gave him a nice deal. But you just 449 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 3: saw how old they looked. I thought in this series, 450 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 3: like when the Pacers looked their best, it just felt 451 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:18,920 Speaker 3: like the Bucks couldn't keep up at all. So I 452 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:21,360 Speaker 3: don't know, maybe Honest becomes more of a full time 453 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 3: five and they figure out more of shooting around him. 454 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 3: I don't know, but this Bucks team I think will 455 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,359 Speaker 3: look pretty different coming into next season. 456 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:32,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're oldies, and Chris Middleton and Brook Lopez they 457 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 2: looked fine in this game. Chris Milton has been really 458 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:38,880 Speaker 2: good all serious, So you kind of have that positive 459 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 2: going into next season if they can change things up 460 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 2: a little bit. But you're right, Brooke. They do have 461 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 2: him for another year. That contract they sign him was 462 00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 2: a nice two year, juicy deal for him. They have 463 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,800 Speaker 2: Middleton for another couple of years to go along with Johannisty. Yeah, 464 00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 2: they have to change things around them just to make 465 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:57,159 Speaker 2: it more more sense period. And Joannis would tease, what 466 00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 2: a tease. I heard that he had such a good 467 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:03,640 Speaker 2: workout Thursday before the game and thinking that he might 468 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 2: come back, but he's got to be healthy. I guess 469 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 2: he wanted to not give it, not be half of 470 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:12,640 Speaker 2: himself in a Game six here, and kind of want 471 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 2: to get used to a series and probably come into 472 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:18,920 Speaker 2: game one if they were to advance. So it's unfortunate. 473 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:24,120 Speaker 2: He'll be healthy for Greece's Olympics pre qualifying tournament. They 474 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,959 Speaker 2: need him, they have a great tournament. I'm already I'm 475 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:31,399 Speaker 2: already looking forward to July when he's got to beat Luca. 476 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 2: He's got to beat Cat to try and get Grease 477 00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 2: into the Olympics. 478 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:35,680 Speaker 3: That's that's big time. 479 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:38,199 Speaker 2: Rick Carlisle also a big time first series win for him. 480 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 2: I was surprised by this since the Mavericks won a 481 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 2: championship that was the last time he won. Wow as 482 00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 2: a coach. Yeah, that is surprising. It is surprising. 483 00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:47,399 Speaker 3: My last note on this one, the Pacers had their 484 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:50,640 Speaker 3: own heckler for this game. There was the Bucks guy 485 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,640 Speaker 3: who was yelling very hilarious, the Pacers guy. I feel 486 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:58,199 Speaker 3: a little bit more PG rated comparatively, maybe PG thirteen 487 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:00,800 Speaker 3: for the Bucks heckler. But two of my favorites were 488 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 3: Gallinari get a haircut. 489 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 2: Oh gosh, that was hilarious. 490 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 3: And Bobby Portis your eyes are slightly too big. 491 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 2: For I heard that. He kept saying it because I 492 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 2: guess Bobby was going to the line. 493 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:15,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, he was shooting some free thrusts. 494 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, so he just literally kept saying, Bobby, your eyes 495 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 2: are too slightly big or slightly big. So it's funny 496 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,639 Speaker 2: because he kept saying slightly. But also, come on, man. 497 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 3: That's becoming the premiere seat. Sitting right behind the broadcast. 498 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 3: People are catching on that you can easily be heard. 499 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:34,240 Speaker 2: So those are behind the announcers basically. 500 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 3: So yeah, at least the Bucks guy was, so I 501 00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 3: assume the Pacers wasn't the same. 502 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 2: Yeah at mid court. Smart move, but also annoying. All right, 503 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 2: moving on, let's preview some round two series because we've 504 00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:52,160 Speaker 2: got a great one in Nuggets and Timberwolves. Oh baby 505 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 2: two three matchup a fifty six or fifty seven win 506 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:59,880 Speaker 2: team versus a fifty six win team, respectively. The Nuggets 507 00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 2: had fifty seven, the Wolves had fifty six. We're getting 508 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:06,640 Speaker 2: started on Saturday for US recording here. That's tomorrow. That's 509 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,160 Speaker 2: the only game going on on Saturday, so we can 510 00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 2: just pay attention to these iconic teams. I'm going on 511 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:17,120 Speaker 2: iconic because I think they're just so good this season, 512 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,360 Speaker 2: and what a first round for the Timberwolves to get 513 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 2: here with the sweep. The Nuggets took care of business 514 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:25,280 Speaker 2: with the Lakers, but they had to do it in five. 515 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,159 Speaker 2: I'm looking forward to this series. What are you watching 516 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,680 Speaker 2: for in this series? One thing to watch, Trey. 517 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 3: One of the first things I'm going to be interested 518 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:36,680 Speaker 3: in is Jamal Murray. Period. He's coming off a calf injury. 519 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 3: You know, I think he was questionable heading into Game 520 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:41,239 Speaker 3: five against the Lakers. When he went out and had 521 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 3: thirty two points and seven assists, looked incredible, hit another 522 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 3: game winner. But I think the matchup is a lot 523 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 3: harder for Jamal Murray playing against the timber Wolves. Had 524 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:54,280 Speaker 3: a favorable matchup against the Lakers, but now it's going 525 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:56,919 Speaker 3: to be Mike Conley. I think it's a lot of 526 00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 3: time on Jamal Murray, at least he did in the 527 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:01,520 Speaker 3: regular season, but they have so many guys they could 528 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 3: throw at him with different skill sets. Obviously, Jaden McDaniels 529 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,439 Speaker 3: can bring the length and the quickness to bother Jamal Murray. 530 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:11,199 Speaker 3: Anthony Edwards. I'm sure we'll probably get a little bit 531 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 3: of time on Jamal Murray. He's a stronger guy than 532 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:17,720 Speaker 3: Murray is. Nikhil Alexander Walker also has length and activity 533 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 3: to harass Jamal Murray. So that to me just means 534 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:24,359 Speaker 3: is how's he going to be able to operate in 535 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,440 Speaker 3: this series? We know that the Jokich Murray two man 536 00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:30,359 Speaker 3: game gets good shots about against anybody. Murray didn't have 537 00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 3: the greatest playoff series. He had some amazing moments, I 538 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,760 Speaker 3: thought against the Lakers, but his shooting percentages were down 539 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,920 Speaker 3: for Jamal Murray, So I think that's a big time matchup. 540 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:42,200 Speaker 3: If he's able to produce the way that we've seen 541 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 3: throughout his playoff career, the Nuggets should be feeling pretty happy. 542 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 3: But it's gonna be tough for him because the Timberwolves 543 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 3: have a lot of options on him. 544 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 2: Yes, Jamal Murray didn't have a great series, although he 545 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:56,560 Speaker 2: finished games pretty damn well in that series. So yeah, 546 00:25:56,640 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 2: Jada McDaniels being on him, they have so many options 547 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,200 Speaker 2: because there's such a good defense, and he did a 548 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 2: good job against Devin Booker in the first round. He 549 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:10,639 Speaker 2: made Devin Booker truly struggle. So even if it's just 550 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:14,480 Speaker 2: at the end of games, that's a good matchup for 551 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,600 Speaker 2: the Minnesota Timberwolves. And he wasn't a part of the 552 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 2: playoffs last season when the timber Wolves did face the Nuggets, 553 00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 2: and the Nuggets handled the Timberwolves in five games, So 554 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:26,920 Speaker 2: that's going to be interesting. I'm interested from the other side, 555 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 2: how the Wolves decide to guard other guys. Let's start 556 00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 2: with Jokic. Is it gonna be Rudy versus Jokich? I 557 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:37,119 Speaker 2: don't know, because throughout this regular season Kat was the 558 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 2: guy guarding Jokich and Rudy was the guy on Aaron 559 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 2: Gordon because they didn't want Rudy flying all the way 560 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 2: around the three point line guarding Yokich. They'd be much 561 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:50,200 Speaker 2: happier dealing with Aaron Gordon. And that could be it 562 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,400 Speaker 2: as well. I mean, it's just tough with these two 563 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,360 Speaker 2: seven footers against this Denver Nugget team. If there's anybody 564 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 2: that can slow down the Denver Nuggets team, I think 565 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:01,439 Speaker 2: the Timberwolves have a good shot. Now. No one can 566 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 2: stop Jokic, so it doesn't really matter if you put 567 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:07,040 Speaker 2: Kat or Rudy on him. I mean Rudy's obviously a 568 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 2: really good defender, but Jokic is just gonna torch everybody. 569 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 2: I mean, he had forty three last season in this 570 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 2: series against Rudy Gobert. He's got that famous line of 571 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 2: Gobert waving off a double team to come help him 572 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:24,959 Speaker 2: against the Jogic and Jokic said, brother, I have forty seven. 573 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 2: You know, he's just so good. The Wolves are just 574 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:31,200 Speaker 2: a monstrous team, and the Nuggets are so good they 575 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 2: don't need threes to win. They're one of those rare 576 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 2: teams in the NBA, and they didn't need him against 577 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:38,919 Speaker 2: the Los Angeles Lakers. There's just so many matchups. I 578 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,199 Speaker 2: wonder how the Wolves guard Michael Porter, because he was 579 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:45,040 Speaker 2: really good against the Lakers. I think you could see 580 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 2: Jaden McDaniels guarding him. You could see some Aaron Gordon 581 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 2: guarding him. Excuse me, not guarding him, but you could 582 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:54,680 Speaker 2: see McDaniels against Aaron Gordon. But there's just many matchups 583 00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:58,200 Speaker 2: here because Porter was just scorching against the Lakers. So 584 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 2: you need somebody good. They've got a lot of good guys. Yeah, 585 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 2: looking forward to that. 586 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 3: Karl Anthony Towns Is, he's got to have a huge 587 00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 3: series in this one, just like he did against the Suns, 588 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 3: just because it's such a weird position, right, like a 589 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,439 Speaker 3: seven footer who can stretch the court, can create his 590 00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:15,000 Speaker 3: own shots, can get shots for other people, and like 591 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:18,159 Speaker 3: you're saying, he's going to be guarding Jokic sometimes, Like 592 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:21,359 Speaker 3: I know that the Timberwolves like to play Jokic one 593 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 3: on one with Rudy sometimes. They did that last year 594 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:25,480 Speaker 3: when he had forty three. That was the only game 595 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:28,840 Speaker 3: that the Nuggets lost in that series. They're like, okay, 596 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:31,240 Speaker 3: go and score, see what you can do. And he scored, 597 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 3: but they shut everybody else down. It's a lot tougher 598 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,479 Speaker 3: for Jokic when Gobert is like the roamer and they 599 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 3: don't have to worry. Maybe he's able to take away 600 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 3: the lobs to Aaron Gordon with his height and his 601 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 3: length and his rim protection. But that then puts Karl 602 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:47,000 Speaker 3: Anthony Towns under the spotlight from a foul perspective, because 603 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 3: he's got to be able to play this series. We 604 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:50,120 Speaker 3: know he makes some dumb files, but he did a 605 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:52,480 Speaker 3: great job in the Phoenix series being able to stay 606 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 3: on the court for the most part. Uh, it's different 607 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 3: against Yokich a guy who draws a ton of fouls. 608 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 2: That's a good point. So is Cat you'r X factor 609 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 2: or do you have another one? 610 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 3: I got some more X factors. I think the Timberwolves 611 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 3: bench is a huge X factor, in particular for Minnesota. 612 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 3: Nos Reed and Nikhil Alexander Walker are the two best 613 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 3: bench players in this series. The Nuggets bench is really thin. 614 00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 3: You know, they basically play three guys in Reggie Jackson 615 00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 3: who's dealing with an ankle injury, Christian Brown, and Peyton Watson. 616 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 3: Outside of Reggie Brown and Watson, they're not big scores. 617 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 3: If Carol Anthony Towns is in foul trouble, that means 618 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 3: we're seeing a lot more nos Red minutes. Nikhil Alexander Walker, 619 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:34,440 Speaker 3: I'd mentioned the defensive impact he can have also a 620 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,239 Speaker 3: pretty good three point shooter, which would be a good 621 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:39,680 Speaker 3: way for the Timberwolves to flip the script on the Nuggets. 622 00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 3: They have to win the non yogic minutes Minnesota does 623 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,240 Speaker 3: in this series because they should have an advantage with 624 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:46,880 Speaker 3: their reserves. 625 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, the bench is pretty important. I think that the 626 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 2: X factor for me is going to be contavious called 627 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 2: weell Pope, because who else guards Anthony Edwards? Like, let's 628 00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 2: get to the Anthony Edwards star here, because he is phenomenal. 629 00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 2: I called this series iconic. To start this talk, I 630 00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:08,000 Speaker 2: got people in the stream team saying I hate Tasses 631 00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 2: takes because I called him I gootic. But Anthony Edwards 632 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 2: is an icon. He feels like he's developing. That he 633 00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 2: was thirty one, eight and six in the first series 634 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 2: on fifty one percent shooting. The Suns tried to double 635 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 2: him and he was just able to find every word. 636 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:26,840 Speaker 2: Everyone was so good around him. You got the Mike 637 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:29,800 Speaker 2: Conley game, you got the Jade McDaniels game. But I 638 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:32,360 Speaker 2: got to respect Kntavius Caldwell Pope, even though people think 639 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 2: Anthony Edwards is just stronger than him, and Kontavis called well. 640 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 2: Pope did end that series with an injury. He has 641 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 2: had some time off since the end of that series, 642 00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:45,280 Speaker 2: so hopefully he is good. But who else do you 643 00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:48,560 Speaker 2: want to try? I think the Aaron Gordon experiment, although 644 00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:50,800 Speaker 2: he's strong enough, Edwards would probably be a little too 645 00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:54,000 Speaker 2: fast for him. So I think can tabacal. I just 646 00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 2: respect his defense and I respect him to be able 647 00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 2: to play through injury. So I do think Anthony Edwards 648 00:30:59,880 --> 00:31:04,000 Speaker 2: is going to be super super good, but Can Davies 649 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 2: goubb Poot will guard him fairly well. So I'm looking 650 00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:08,920 Speaker 2: forward to that because, like you were just saying about 651 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:11,840 Speaker 2: trying to guard youokitch one on one that the Timberwolves did. 652 00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 2: They said, Rudy, you know, you take him, Cat, you 653 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 2: take him. I don't think they're going to try and 654 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:19,480 Speaker 2: double somebody like Anthony Edwards from the Nuggets defensive side. 655 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 2: They're not going to try and double Anthony Edwards because 656 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 2: the Wolves are just so good at grabbing offensive rebounds, 657 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:26,040 Speaker 2: and once you put two guys there and you're scrambling, 658 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 2: you're more likely to allow offensive rebounds. And that's what 659 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:32,880 Speaker 2: happened to the Suns in the first round. The Timberwolves 660 00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 2: were just grabbing rebound after rebound after rebound. Forty percent 661 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 2: of their missus is what they collected. I mean, that's 662 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 2: that's way too easy. So I do think it's going 663 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:43,959 Speaker 2: to be a single coverage against Anthony Edwards, so it's 664 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:46,960 Speaker 2: probably KCP, although there will be some naw. As you mentioned, Nikil, 665 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 2: Alexander Walker is just damn good coming off the bench, 666 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:53,320 Speaker 2: and he was good against Booker, But is Anthony Edwards 667 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 2: too strong for that guy? 668 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:56,320 Speaker 3: I mean, well, I don't think Nah's going to be 669 00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 3: guarding Anthony Edwards. 670 00:31:58,200 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 2: A little bit. 671 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,240 Speaker 3: But no way, they're on the same Oh yeah, no, 672 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 3: KCP is the question. Yeah, he gets He's gonna get 673 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 3: the most of the Anthony Edwards assignment. I think Christian 674 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 3: Brown will guard him a little bit. He's pretty strong 675 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:13,560 Speaker 3: as well, moves his feet. Peyton Watson, I assume will 676 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,240 Speaker 3: get a few chances here and there, and then Aaron Gordon, 677 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:18,480 Speaker 3: like you mentioned, they're gonna have to use him on 678 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 3: Anthony Edwards a little bit just because of his strength 679 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 3: and CACP is dealing with an ankle injury. Case P 680 00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 3: did a really good job against during the regular season, 681 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:28,520 Speaker 3: held him scoreless in the fourth quarter twice during the 682 00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 3: regular season. That will be a question mark in this 683 00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:34,280 Speaker 3: series because we know the Nuggets get great shots no 684 00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:38,080 Speaker 3: matter what in the fourth quarter. Yeah, Timberwolves not always. 685 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:39,880 Speaker 3: They were not one of the best fourth quarter teams 686 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,400 Speaker 3: during the regular season. They also played a first round 687 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 3: playoff series where there weren't a lot of tense moments 688 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 3: in the fourth quarter. Though Anthony Edwards did dominate in 689 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:51,040 Speaker 3: fourth quarters against Phoenix, even though he would not great 690 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 3: against them during the regular season. So you mentioned the strength. 691 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:57,600 Speaker 3: CASEP is more of a slight guy. Aaron Gordon is 692 00:32:57,600 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 3: a strong guy. When CACP is on him, and it's 693 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:01,720 Speaker 3: the fourth quarter, Anthony Edwards needs to get in the 694 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 3: post and work on the bank shots. Yeah, because that's 695 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:05,600 Speaker 3: a place where he could easily make Hay. 696 00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, they didn't have to play a great fourth quarter 697 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:10,840 Speaker 2: against Phoenix Suns other than the last game. The only 698 00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,720 Speaker 2: close game in the fourth quarter was the fourth one. 699 00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 2: And you're right, Nikile Alexander Walker will not be guarding 700 00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:17,880 Speaker 2: Anthony Edwards. 701 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:20,320 Speaker 3: That's advantage Nuggets if that happened. 702 00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:25,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I had a bench, bench player written down to 703 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 2: guard Anthony Edwards. It there was a Watson, there was 704 00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:31,480 Speaker 2: a WA. I went with Nikkile Alexander Walker. So maybe 705 00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:34,840 Speaker 2: Watson gets some minutes there. Hopefully KCP is healthy. I 706 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:39,280 Speaker 2: mean that is important in this one because he is very, 707 00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 2: very good, and that's who. If there's anybody that can 708 00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:46,320 Speaker 2: slow down to Anthony Edwards, it's got to be him. 709 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:48,080 Speaker 3: I think he's their best chance for sure. 710 00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 2: All Right, moving on the prediction here Nuggets t Wolves. 711 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:53,280 Speaker 2: What do you got? 712 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 3: This to me? Feels like the Western Conference Finals. I 713 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 3: don't know if it is. I mean, it's really only 714 00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:00,920 Speaker 3: the second round, but I thought the Timberwolves probably looked 715 00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:03,320 Speaker 3: the best of any team in the NBA in the 716 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 3: first round of the playoffs. The Nuggets played incredible in 717 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:09,080 Speaker 3: second halves against the Lakers. But over the course of 718 00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:12,200 Speaker 3: the series, you know, this was not the Nuggets at 719 00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:14,840 Speaker 3: their absolute peak. They can get better. We know that 720 00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:17,640 Speaker 3: Jokic is the best player in the NBA, but if 721 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:19,399 Speaker 3: there's a way for Anthony Edwards to be the best 722 00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:23,080 Speaker 3: player in this series, that's how the Timberwolves win. It's 723 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:25,480 Speaker 3: tough to bet against Anthony Edwards at this point. The 724 00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:29,239 Speaker 3: guy is ascending faster than we would have imagined. And 725 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,360 Speaker 3: he you know, coming into the Phoenix series, everybody's like, 726 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 3: ah Ill, watch out. Phoenix has really handled this guy, 727 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 3: and he completely tore him apart, sent him packing, made 728 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:40,279 Speaker 3: him look old. That being said, the Nuggets have home 729 00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:42,480 Speaker 3: court advantage. I'm taking Nuggets in seven. 730 00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:45,840 Speaker 2: I gets in seven. Yeah, yeah, I like the others. 731 00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 2: I bet against the Wolves in round one and I 732 00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:51,799 Speaker 2: start looking at them and I say, are these the 733 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:55,359 Speaker 2: twenty eleven MAVs who were bet against round after round 734 00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:58,680 Speaker 2: after round. People took Portland in round one and then 735 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:02,680 Speaker 2: they played the defending champs in round two? Just like 736 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,719 Speaker 2: the timber Wolves. Are they played the Lakers here in 737 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,680 Speaker 2: round three? If they get there, they would be playing okay? See, 738 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 2: just like Dallas did in twenty eleven they were the 739 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:15,040 Speaker 2: underdog against Lebron in Miami, this team would be the 740 00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:19,280 Speaker 2: underdog against the Boston Celtics. I would think I'm getting 741 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:23,960 Speaker 2: ahead of myself here. I'm wondering if they're just yeah, 742 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:27,759 Speaker 2: if this being their first second round together against the 743 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:31,239 Speaker 2: freaking champs is going to is it gonna slow them 744 00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 2: down a little bit? I know they've got motivations. They're 745 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:38,400 Speaker 2: playing for an injured coach, that's right, Chris. They're playing 746 00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:41,040 Speaker 2: for their old players. And Mike Conley said before the 747 00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:44,359 Speaker 2: playoffs started, I don't have many more years, let's go play. 748 00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:47,759 Speaker 2: And they played like you said they did. Look probably 749 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:51,760 Speaker 2: it was definitely the most dominating win of that first round, 750 00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:55,080 Speaker 2: even though they are other great teams and great players 751 00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:57,439 Speaker 2: like Nicola Jokic, Like, how do you bet against this guy? 752 00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:00,600 Speaker 2: He was so good? Against this team he's throughout the 753 00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:02,960 Speaker 2: regular season. He's just so good against everybody. With the 754 00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:06,920 Speaker 2: home court, I just lean now gets seven games as well, 755 00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:08,600 Speaker 2: it's going to be a doozy. 756 00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:12,560 Speaker 3: Yeah. Skeet sent in his pick as well, Nuggets and seven. 757 00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:14,440 Speaker 3: I think that is going to be a pretty common pick. 758 00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:16,560 Speaker 2: In this series. Everybody playing it safe. 759 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:18,520 Speaker 3: Everybody playing it safe, and these two teams have been 760 00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:21,000 Speaker 3: so well matched. We had Bruce Brown talking up the 761 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:24,719 Speaker 3: Timberwolves after last year's playoffs. We had, you know, the 762 00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:26,920 Speaker 3: seeding coming down to the last week of the season. 763 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:29,919 Speaker 3: The Nuggets beat the Timberwolves to have this game seven 764 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:32,640 Speaker 3: at home. Literally yeah, yeah, so, I mean yeah, it 765 00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:34,200 Speaker 3: just feels like a tight, tight series. 766 00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:37,799 Speaker 2: Moving on to another Round two, which hopefully will be 767 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:42,920 Speaker 2: a tight series as well. Nicks Pacers get going a 768 00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:45,960 Speaker 2: few days from now on Monday, a two seed versus 769 00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:47,799 Speaker 2: a six seed. But there are only three wins apart 770 00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 2: throughout the regular season, a fifty win team versus a 771 00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:53,240 Speaker 2: forty seven win team. So what's one thing to watch 772 00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 2: from this series? 773 00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:58,440 Speaker 3: Tray, whoever controls the pace controls the series. The Pacers, 774 00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 3: we know, they love to fly up on the court. 775 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:04,160 Speaker 3: They finished the season second in pace behind the Washington Wizards. 776 00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:07,360 Speaker 3: The Knicks, of course, we're thirtieth in pace. So to me, 777 00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:10,320 Speaker 3: that means the Pacers. You know, they're gonna try and 778 00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:12,960 Speaker 3: run on makes and misses. That's a given. They also 779 00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:14,880 Speaker 3: got to force a bunch of turnovers, and they gotta 780 00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:17,239 Speaker 3: find a way to keep the New York Knicks off 781 00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 3: the offensive glass. Because the Knicks pound the glass during 782 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,200 Speaker 3: the regular season, they make even more of an effort. 783 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:26,839 Speaker 3: I feel like, come yes postseason, because you know Hartenstein 784 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:29,680 Speaker 3: and Mitchell Robinson are gonna be going crazy for the 785 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:33,000 Speaker 3: offensive boards. They're more physical players than Miles Turner is. 786 00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:35,680 Speaker 3: And then Josh hart comes in, just flies in, gets 787 00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:40,879 Speaker 3: seventeen to twenty rebounds as as a guard. Pretty incredible stuff. 788 00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:43,360 Speaker 3: They also like to play that slow down isostyle of 789 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:46,879 Speaker 3: ball with Jalen Brunson getting his booty into guys. So 790 00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:49,480 Speaker 3: I think it's a big question how are the Pacers 791 00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:53,680 Speaker 3: going to combat the Knicks physicality, because I don't feel 792 00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:56,439 Speaker 3: like the Pacers handled it all that well against the Bucks. 793 00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:58,840 Speaker 3: When the Bucks looked their best, they were playing slow, 794 00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:01,319 Speaker 3: they were beating up the glo, they were posting up 795 00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:03,319 Speaker 3: these are all things that the Knicks like to do 796 00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:05,400 Speaker 3: as well, and that the Knicks are better at. And 797 00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:08,439 Speaker 3: the Niks are healthier going into this series. So that's 798 00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:10,920 Speaker 3: a big question mark for me. If we're looking at 799 00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,200 Speaker 3: a Knicks series where the games are really really slow, 800 00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:15,320 Speaker 3: they're gonna win this one pretty easily, I think. 801 00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:18,440 Speaker 2: Interesting. Now, the Knicks do have some injuries in that 802 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:22,560 Speaker 2: Bogdanovich is out, so in the series against Philly they 803 00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 2: went seven deep. They just went seven guys and two 804 00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:27,879 Speaker 2: guys off the bench. So the Pacers love to run, 805 00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:29,840 Speaker 2: obviously coming off the bench. So I wonder if the 806 00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:32,960 Speaker 2: Knicks can't handle that. I assume they can because they 807 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:35,200 Speaker 2: do have three days off. I mentioned that this starts 808 00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:37,799 Speaker 2: on Monday, as we were recording here on Friday, so 809 00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 2: three fresh, three days at home in New York. I 810 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:46,359 Speaker 2: think the Knicks will handle that well. I do think 811 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:49,359 Speaker 2: the pace is everything though in this series. You're totally right. 812 00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:52,440 Speaker 2: Haliburton said it about the games against Milwaukee. The games 813 00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:55,480 Speaker 2: we won, we dictated the pace. That is exactly what happened. 814 00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 2: And the Knicks are so good at offensive rebounding, so 815 00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:00,360 Speaker 2: that slows down the pace a little bit. And the 816 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:04,600 Speaker 2: Pacers weren't all that great at defensive rebounding in the 817 00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:09,160 Speaker 2: regular season they were twenty sixth. But I don't make 818 00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:12,360 Speaker 2: anything out of the season series between these two teams. 819 00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:15,480 Speaker 2: It really doesn't matter. I know people say, well, they 820 00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:17,240 Speaker 2: scored one hundred and forty and one hundred and twenty 821 00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:19,759 Speaker 2: five in two games against the Knicks, but there was 822 00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 2: no og An Andobi in either of those games. In 823 00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:26,839 Speaker 2: any game they played, They're starting Todge Gibson at times. Yeah, 824 00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:29,960 Speaker 2: whoa remember that that that was a different Knicks world 825 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:33,840 Speaker 2: where TODJ. Gibson season that was the season. Yeah, but 826 00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:36,279 Speaker 2: now with Hartenstein and Mitchell Robinson, who was able to 827 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:39,160 Speaker 2: get back healthy at the end of the series, those 828 00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:42,160 Speaker 2: are two guys that can deal with Miles Turner and 829 00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:46,279 Speaker 2: we'll trick and rebound every single time. But yeah, the 830 00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 2: Pacers were on fire in those games. Like they were 831 00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 2: shooting it's forty seven percent from three. I just don't 832 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:55,160 Speaker 2: see that happening against this New York Knicks teams that 833 00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:58,400 Speaker 2: it seems to have everything together. But let's get to 834 00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:01,640 Speaker 2: an X factor for you, Trey, either team wherever you 835 00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:02,080 Speaker 2: want to go. 836 00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:04,720 Speaker 3: Andrew Demhard to me is a big time X factor 837 00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:06,960 Speaker 3: in this series, because I think he's gonna be getting 838 00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:10,360 Speaker 3: the majority of the Jalen Brunson assignment. He's a feisty defender, 839 00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:13,760 Speaker 3: he's strong, he's quick enough because Brunson ain't gonna beating 840 00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 3: you with quickness. It's just a matter of staying down 841 00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:19,080 Speaker 3: on pump fakes not getting put in jail by Jalen 842 00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:21,840 Speaker 3: Brunson time and time again. And we know the Knicks 843 00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:23,839 Speaker 3: like to run Jalen Brunson into the ground. They're gonna 844 00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:26,359 Speaker 3: go pick and roll three out every four possessions, it 845 00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:29,520 Speaker 3: feels like with Brunson handling the ball, So that's the 846 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:33,440 Speaker 3: defensive end. Nemhart has to make it tough for Brunson. 847 00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:37,520 Speaker 3: And you know in the Philly series it was length 848 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:40,560 Speaker 3: that was bothering Jalen Brunson early on before he started 849 00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:43,600 Speaker 3: scoring forty every single night. Maybe that means Aaron Nesmith 850 00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:45,040 Speaker 3: will get it a little bit of the job as well. 851 00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:47,239 Speaker 3: But I think Nemhard at least starts there. On the 852 00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:50,239 Speaker 3: other side, Jalen Brunson probably is trying to hide on 853 00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:52,440 Speaker 3: Andrew Nemhard and Emhard had a really nice series in 854 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:55,120 Speaker 3: the first round thirteen points per game shot sixty percent 855 00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:57,560 Speaker 3: from the field forty five percent from three. They need 856 00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:00,399 Speaker 3: his defense and they need him to do something offensively 857 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:04,759 Speaker 3: as well to punish Brunson for hanging out on him defensively. 858 00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:08,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, Nemhard was really good. Blocked Damian Lillard in Game 859 00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:14,200 Speaker 2: six there, just recovering seriously well. And those guys in Nemhard, 860 00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:17,920 Speaker 2: Nie Smith, who had a good ending to that series, 861 00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:21,920 Speaker 2: They're gonna need to be good because Haliburton is going 862 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:26,040 Speaker 2: to be He's gonna be guarded by everybody. They're gonna 863 00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:28,560 Speaker 2: do a decent drop and Halburn isn't the same guy 864 00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:31,160 Speaker 2: that he was the beginning of season, dropping thirty and 865 00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:34,360 Speaker 2: able to do what he did every single game again 866 00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:38,319 Speaker 2: in the wins against the Bucks twelve, eighteen, twenty four, 867 00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:40,920 Speaker 2: and seventeen. He didn't need to be good. So Pascal 868 00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:44,960 Speaker 2: Siakama is going to be a big factor against ogn Ando. 869 00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:47,600 Speaker 2: We former teammates, I'm sure gonna be guarding each other. 870 00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:51,759 Speaker 2: That's huge. I think Miles Turner will be pretty big 871 00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:54,759 Speaker 2: in this series as well. He's my X factor just 872 00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:56,680 Speaker 2: because you know, we name all the guys, all the 873 00:41:56,680 --> 00:42:01,080 Speaker 2: guys that really helped out Haliburton and seat aham Nie Smith, 874 00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:05,239 Speaker 2: Nam Hard. They're going to be guarded extremely well, there's 875 00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:08,360 Speaker 2: gonna be a de Vincenzo out there guarding Josh Hart 876 00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:13,280 Speaker 2: scrapping around. Miles Turner is such a good three point shooter, 877 00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:16,840 Speaker 2: he's gotta let it rip. You know. He was awesome 878 00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:19,520 Speaker 2: in the first five games before having a really quiet 879 00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:23,080 Speaker 2: game against the Bucks. Twenty two points and forty seven 880 00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:26,600 Speaker 2: percent from three. Those shots are going to be there 881 00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:29,960 Speaker 2: against Isaiah Hartenstein. I think Joel Embiid had those shots 882 00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:33,880 Speaker 2: against Isaiah Hartenstein, So that's important stuff. He's got to 883 00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:37,799 Speaker 2: be really good, just because I don't think the Pacers' 884 00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:40,480 Speaker 2: depth is going to be as much of a factor 885 00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:42,719 Speaker 2: against the Knicks as it was against the Bucks when 886 00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:44,840 Speaker 2: they were just running against the oldies against all the 887 00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:45,360 Speaker 2: old guys. 888 00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:47,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, the Turner's got to stay out of foul trouble, right, 889 00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:49,400 Speaker 3: You don't want to see Isaiah Jackson out there in 890 00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:49,880 Speaker 3: the series. 891 00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:53,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, the Isaiah Jackson looking good against the Milwaukee Bucks. 892 00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:58,400 Speaker 2: All right, let's get a prediction. Nicks six dis Pacers. 893 00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:02,560 Speaker 3: Spoiling your pick here. Oh man, this is exciting. Love 894 00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:05,440 Speaker 3: the history in this series. I mean og versus Siakam. 895 00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:08,240 Speaker 3: That's pretty crazy that these guys were both traded at midseason. 896 00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:09,960 Speaker 3: Suddenly they're going to be guarding each other. And I'm 897 00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:12,160 Speaker 3: with you, like, that's a big time matchup. When the 898 00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:15,160 Speaker 3: game slows down, Siakam has to be big time for 899 00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:16,880 Speaker 3: the Pacers. Then, of course you throw it back to 900 00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:19,800 Speaker 3: the nineties, Reggie doing the choke signed to Spike Lee 901 00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:22,320 Speaker 3: back in ninety four, eight points nine seconds in nineteen 902 00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:26,360 Speaker 3: ninety five, Larry Johnson's four point play, Roy Hipper blocking 903 00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:28,959 Speaker 3: Carmelo Anthony at the rim to go to the next 904 00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:30,880 Speaker 3: round of the playoffs. Oh yeah, there's a lot of 905 00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:33,920 Speaker 3: great moments between these two teams. Hopefully we get some 906 00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:37,359 Speaker 3: more classics as well. But I think back to that 907 00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:39,880 Speaker 3: first round series against the Bucks and how the Pacers 908 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:43,680 Speaker 3: had a pretty tough time putting away Milwaukee, even though 909 00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:45,680 Speaker 3: there was no Jannis on such a koompa out there. 910 00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:49,239 Speaker 3: Dame Lillard missed some time and was not totally himself 911 00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:52,919 Speaker 3: in Game six. I thought Milwaukee was too easily able 912 00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:55,319 Speaker 3: to control the pace against the Pacers, and I think 913 00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:58,320 Speaker 3: the Knicks are even better at that. I'm going Nixon five. 914 00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:03,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I do think Wow five that the lights 915 00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:06,360 Speaker 2: will be brighter in New York than they were in Milwaukee. 916 00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:09,440 Speaker 2: And the Pacers weren't incredible on the road. Uh, the 917 00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:11,279 Speaker 2: oldies were doing a good job. They were one and 918 00:44:11,320 --> 00:44:15,680 Speaker 2: two in Milwaukee, and I do think, yeah, the veterans 919 00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:18,080 Speaker 2: of the Knicks and how they play will overcome that. 920 00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:22,719 Speaker 2: I can't go five. Even though the Pacers did well 921 00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:26,320 Speaker 2: at home, they obviously dominated there, but the Knicks just 922 00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:29,200 Speaker 2: aren't going to be as old and slow as the 923 00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:33,879 Speaker 2: Bucks were in those games. I'm gonna do six. I'm 924 00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:35,960 Speaker 2: gonna do the New York Knicks in six games. Yes, 925 00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:39,280 Speaker 2: I gave it away before as I was, I was predicting. 926 00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:41,279 Speaker 3: A classic pick Skeets is the Knicks and six guys 927 00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:41,600 Speaker 3: as well. 928 00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:44,400 Speaker 2: All right, can't wait to see that. I can't wait 929 00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:47,359 Speaker 2: to see a lot of things. I'm not looking forward 930 00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:49,480 Speaker 2: to this though. I gotta be completely honest, our man 931 00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:52,400 Speaker 2: Jerome is joining us. I want to talk to Jerome, 932 00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:55,440 Speaker 2: of course, Hi Jerome, how are you?

The change 961 00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:23,560 Speaker 2: of speed there that you had, that's that's a nice move. 962 00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:26,600 Speaker 7: Yeah, when I filmed the video, I wasn't. 963 00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:28,520 Speaker 6: Sure if I went hard enough, and then I realized it. 964 00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:33,520 Speaker 7: Was way too hard, is what what happened there. But thankfully, 965 00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:36,800 Speaker 7: you know, even in my older age, the body didn't 966 00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:38,680 Speaker 7: feel the consequences the next day. 967 00:46:38,719 --> 00:46:43,080 Speaker 6: So we're good, We're still alive.

I've told the story about me breaking 1274 01:02:04,600 --> 01:02:07,880 Speaker 2: my leg. But I saw the Who's the Boss theme 1275 01:02:08,000 --> 01:02:12,920 Speaker 2: song recently and it is remember twhen Tony Danza circles 1276 01:02:12,960 --> 01:02:16,480 Speaker 2: third base to go home. That's exactly what happened to me. 1277 01:02:16,880 --> 01:02:19,640 Speaker 2: I circle third base and I hit some sort of divot, 1278 01:02:19,920 --> 01:02:23,960 Speaker 2: some sort of hole in the dirt, and my leg snapped, 1279 01:02:25,560 --> 01:02:28,920 Speaker 2: the old, the old upper leg snap. That doesn't that 1280 01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:32,280 Speaker 2: doesn't happen very often anyway. But I saw Tony do it, 1281 01:02:32,320 --> 01:02:34,560 Speaker 2: and I thought, well, I was running way faster than 1282 01:02:34,600 --> 01:02:37,640 Speaker 2: Tony Danza. There's no, there's no I was running way 1283 01:02:37,720 --> 01:02:41,440 Speaker 2: slower than Tony Danza. That's that's for sure anyway. So 1284 01:02:41,440 --> 01:02:44,520 Speaker 2: it was great to see Tony Danza just split. It's 1285 01:02:44,560 --> 01:02:47,240 Speaker 2: just sprinting around the third. So I did it trigger 1286 01:02:47,320 --> 01:02:50,600 Speaker 2: you like where you're like, no, thankfully, not you. No. 1287 01:02:50,720 --> 01:02:53,800 Speaker 5: It doesn't like to slot out them. 1288 01:02:54,480 --> 01:02:56,680 Speaker 2: Because I guess I guess when you think about the 1289 01:02:56,720 --> 01:02:59,360 Speaker 2: Who's the Boss intro and the theme song, it's always 1290 01:02:59,360 --> 01:03:01,520 Speaker 2: the same, right, I guess Tony Dance is sprinting around 1291 01:03:01,560 --> 01:03:04,120 Speaker 2: the third, But yeah, they probably don't change might do it. 1292 01:03:04,400 --> 01:03:07,320 Speaker 6: He did like later seasons maybe yeah, yeah, yeah, that's. 1293 01:03:07,160 --> 01:03:10,840 Speaker 2: Why I don't really remember it that all that often. 1294 01:03:10,920 --> 01:03:13,920 Speaker 2: I think they cut that part out of him running 1295 01:03:14,320 --> 01:03:17,720 Speaker 2: into home plate. It was a recent play in baseball 1296 01:03:17,760 --> 01:03:20,840 Speaker 2: where a guy was sort of blocked by the catcher, 1297 01:03:20,880 --> 01:03:22,960 Speaker 2: and so everybody was pulling up.
