1 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:06,320 Speaker 1: Welcome in What's Right with Nick Wright Episode three forty three, 2 00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:09,399 Speaker 1: and this episode, as always of What's Right with Nick Wright, 3 00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:14,600 Speaker 1: is brought to you by boost Mobile. NBA season over, 4 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,000 Speaker 1: we got as good of a postseason as one could 5 00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:21,599 Speaker 1: have asked for, as compelling of a finals as one 6 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:26,000 Speaker 1: could have asked for. And shout out to America for 7 00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:33,320 Speaker 1: reminding the really the Charlotte Tins on social media, the 8 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:37,519 Speaker 1: go broke crowd that add, doesn't really matter who's in 9 00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:40,000 Speaker 1: the NBA Finals. If it's a game seven, people are 10 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:44,080 Speaker 1: gonna watch. Sixteen million people watched Game seven of the 11 00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:47,880 Speaker 1: Finals on average, peaking near twenty million. I don't actually 12 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 1: care that much about the rating stuff. I do care 13 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:52,640 Speaker 1: about some of the worst people on the internet being 14 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 1: proven wrong. So I do enjoy that the highest rated 15 00:00:56,200 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 1: Finals since twenty nineteen, the last pre COVID final. So 16 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:05,760 Speaker 1: great for the league, great for the thunder, tragic but 17 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:09,960 Speaker 1: in a somewhat sports heroic way for Tyrese Halliburton and 18 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 1: the Indiana Pacers. We will get to all of that 19 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,640 Speaker 1: in just a moment. Also, Kevin Durant has been traded. 20 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:20,759 Speaker 1: The NBA Draft is tomorrow night. Programming. Note, we are 21 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 1: going to be doing a live draft show during the 22 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:28,959 Speaker 1: at least the lottery portion of the NBA Draft. It 23 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: will be somewhat on the prospects, more about with the 24 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: teams and the fits and all of that. That'll be 25 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:39,400 Speaker 1: fun Tomorrow night. Also programming note regular show on Thursday, 26 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,960 Speaker 1: and then I am gone for about a week and 27 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 1: a half and then we'll be back shortly after the 28 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 1: fourth of July. Right now, though, straight to the voicemail 29 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 1: brought to you by our friends at boost Mobile. Isaiah 30 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 1: Hartenstein's son sleeps through the trophy presentation and shout out 31 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 1: to Shay protect the Shae support the head Shait father. 32 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,919 Speaker 1: Shay came over and was like, yo, bro, I really 33 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 1: liked that. I thought that was an endearing moment by him. 34 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 1: Shane gillis to host the SPI's He is a guy 35 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 1: that I have consumed none of his content, but people 36 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 1: who have tell me he is quite funny. Okay, that's 37 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 1: why everybody who's like watches him likes him. I just 38 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 1: I'm not that familiar with him. And Big weekend in 39 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 1: New York thanks to Michael Rubin's Fanatics Fest, so a 40 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 1: lot of folks here. Bron kd Draymond, like all of 41 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: the NBA royalty that was not in the finals was 42 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,520 Speaker 1: here in New York and some autograph seekers. We're pretty 43 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,240 Speaker 1: annoying to Kevin Durant, and I don't really blame him 44 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: for being Oh, this isn't even the one the video 45 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 1: that I thought it was. I thought there were there 46 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,399 Speaker 1: were a few of those videos, but we can get 47 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: to those at another time where oh, that's funny they 48 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:58,359 Speaker 1: all threw stuff at him. I thought this was when 49 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 1: he was walking down the street and people ran up 50 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 1: on him. All right, reminder, please like rate, subscribe review. 51 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,799 Speaker 1: This is typically the time of year where subscriptions start 52 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:13,640 Speaker 1: to slow because July and August we have vacation. There's 53 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 1: not you know, huge sports going on. We will try. 54 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 1: I have a strategy to not only have this be 55 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 1: not where subscription slow and viewership drops, but where it 56 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 1: pops and involves not even Demandse's generation, but the generation 57 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: beneath him, the Gen Z, the Zoomers, maybe Gen Alpha 58 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: getting involved. We're gonna have to clean up our language 59 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 1: on that. If that happens. We will debut that strategy 60 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: sometime in July. But something that I ever thought I 61 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 1: would do, which is be like, Hey, those twitch streamers 62 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: that got thirty million viewer of followers, maybe we should 63 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: be maybe we should collab with them a little more often. 64 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 1: So maybe that'll come this summer. But demands great to 65 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 1: see you. I like that shirt. You look great. The 66 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 1: NBA season is over and the best team all year 67 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 1: won the championship. Go right ahead. 68 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, so the thundered and up winning that game. It 69 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 2: was It was a little weird, though weird game seven. 70 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 2: Is this more about okay See winning or is this 71 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 2: more about Halliburton getting getting injured? 72 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 3: There so looked a certain type of way. 73 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: What do you mean like in the beginning, in the beginning. 74 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:37,720 Speaker 1: But so here's why the Halliburton story will resonate for years. 75 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 1: Halliburton will become the new go to name for a 76 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 1: guy who plays through injury. And and this is and 77 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 1: we'll get to this more when we talk about I 78 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,159 Speaker 1: do want to mostly talk about Okay See off the top, 79 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:56,839 Speaker 1: but there's what I will say about Halliburton. Quickly, risk 80 00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: means risk, and like if they're the if you are 81 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 1: tightrope walking on a harness with a net beneath you, 82 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: you're not tightrope walking. And for Tyrese Haliburton. One of 83 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 1: the reasons what he did was so admirable from a 84 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: sports perspective and from a team perspective was because this 85 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: was possible and he now and I thought brew made 86 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: a really good point, which is what it People are 87 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 1: looking at it from what this injury could mean for 88 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 1: the rest of his career, and Bru's point was what 89 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 1: not playing in those games could have meant for him 90 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:50,919 Speaker 1: psychologically for the rest of his career could be a 91 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 1: totally different type of career altering incident. And so Tyrese 92 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 1: Haliburton took a major risk. We'll talk, and you know 93 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 1: obviously paid the price for it. We will talk for right. 94 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: It will always be an iconic image in a terrible way, 95 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 1: but his name will be synonymous with putting it all 96 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:15,600 Speaker 1: on the line for your team for a chance at 97 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:20,840 Speaker 1: the ultimate glory. Where I do not necessarily agree with 98 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,280 Speaker 1: what it seems like demand's a you were I don't 99 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:27,600 Speaker 1: want to say implying but hinting at is just because 100 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:32,160 Speaker 1: the Pacers looked really good early and just because they 101 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 1: were up one at halftime despite Haliburton's injury. I am 102 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 1: not ready to say that that means oh, clearly, had 103 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,160 Speaker 1: he not gotten hurt, they would have won. Now it 104 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:47,159 Speaker 1: is clear had he not gotten hurt, they could have won. 105 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:51,479 Speaker 1: But the thing is, even with him hurt, they could 106 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 1: have won. They were down, they were up one at halftime, 107 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:58,680 Speaker 1: and they were down four with three and a half 108 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: minutes left in the third quarter. They had stayed attached. 109 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: And then the reason that I'm going to say for 110 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: the today, for the moment, not for the long term, 111 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 1: the story is OKC winning is because OKC won the 112 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: way they won all year, which is in a very 113 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 1: similar but totally different way that the Warriors even pre KD. 114 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 1: But certainly with KD you would feel like you were close. 115 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 1: It would you might even be leading at halftime, and 116 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 1: then you just knew there is going to be a 117 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 1: moment in the third quarter where in ninety seconds the 118 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: Warriors hit four threes, it's a twelve to two run, 119 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 1: and the game has flipped. OKC all year long had 120 00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: an air of inevitability that they were going to do 121 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 1: something similar with their defense, and that is exactly what 122 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 1: they did from the end of the third quarter through 123 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 1: a few minutes into the fourth quarter, when they turned 124 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 1: a four point lead into a twenty one point lead 125 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 1: thanks to a nineteen to two run. It might have 126 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 1: been twenty one to four. Whatever it was, they outscored 127 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 1: him by seventeen over seven minute stretch. Through defense, they 128 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 1: had four steals and blocks. The Pacers were one of 129 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:33,679 Speaker 1: eleven from the field. OKC won that game through their defense. 130 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 1: My favorite stat of game seven of the finals demonse. 131 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 1: OKC shot forty percent, Indiana shot forty one percent. OKC 132 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:47,280 Speaker 1: made eleven threes. Indiana made eleven threes. OKC made twenty 133 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 1: two free throws. Indiana made twenty two free throws. OKAC 134 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 1: had thirteen rebounds, Indiana offensive rebounds. Indiana had twelve offensive rebounds. 135 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: So how in the world, given the field goal percentage, 136 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 1: threes made, free throws made, offensive rebounds being dead even 137 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:07,319 Speaker 1: was that game a twelve point margin. OKC took seventeen 138 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:13,559 Speaker 1: more shots than Indiana because they had fourteen fewer turnovers. 139 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 1: It was the defense and their possession game that won 140 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: them a championship, and that is also it. There were 141 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 1: two through lines of okac's brilliance this year, Shay's consistent 142 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: offensive performance and the team's overall relentlessness on defense, and 143 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:38,559 Speaker 1: that is why they won the championship. Go ahead, It 144 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 1: seemed like you want to say something. 145 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 2: Uh yeah, I mean, well, on the on the defense, 146 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 2: go ahead. Do you think the teams will model their 147 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:50,959 Speaker 2: teams how OKAC has and kind of harp on a 148 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:51,680 Speaker 2: good defense. 149 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 1: Well, I think it's easier said than done. I think 150 00:09:55,640 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 1: everybody that knows the league knows you go through all 151 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:05,720 Speaker 1: NBA champions and it is a very, very very short 152 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 1: list of teams that didn't have a great defense. By 153 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: the way, Victor, I can hear you in at least 154 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 1: in my ear piece in the in the control room 155 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 1: that didn't So it's a very short list of teams 156 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:23,440 Speaker 1: that didn't have a great defense. And it's almost a 157 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 1: non existent list of teams that didn't have a good 158 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 1: defense now modeling, So it's one thing to prioritize defense, 159 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 1: another thing to have those bodies and have you know, 160 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 1: that personnel. So that part is I think easier said 161 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 1: than done. Right, Exactly, what I do think is this 162 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: OKC team is going to be the standard, not just 163 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 1: because they won the championship, but in large part every 164 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 1: team that thinks they are building a contender is going 165 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 1: to ask themselves, how do we match up against this 166 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 1: specific team, and by the way, that does happen all 167 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 1: the time. It's happened with the last three champions. Specifically, 168 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 1: when the Nuggets won, everyone's question was, Okay, we have 169 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:30,959 Speaker 1: to build our team as best as we possibly can, 170 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 1: and then we also have to make sure if we 171 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: face Nikola Jokic, what is our plan, like, what is 172 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:42,680 Speaker 1: our plan for him? Specifically? Last year the Celtics won, 173 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 1: and the Knicks in the conference said, you know what, 174 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,080 Speaker 1: what if we just try to build a team to 175 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:53,079 Speaker 1: beat Boston, which they did, by the way, shout out 176 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 1: to them. And now I think teams, particularly in the West, 177 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 1: but are going to say what are we going to 178 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 1: do to deal with Oklahoma City? And I do want 179 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 1: to this is I think sometimes or some folks, I 180 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 1: should say, might be hearing this and saying, Nick, you're 181 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 1: paying all this respect to Okase. Now you picked the 182 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 1: Lakers to win the conference, the Lakers to beat them 183 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 1: in the conference finals. And I actually think now the 184 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 1: Lakers were flawed for a bunch of different reasons, right, 185 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 1: most notably you know, the lack of a center. And 186 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:37,960 Speaker 1: I think as good of a job as JJ did 187 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 1: over the course of the year, rookie head coach in 188 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:45,679 Speaker 1: the playoffs, he had some issues, so maybe it wouldn't 189 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 1: have mattered. But the reason the Lakers, in my opinion, 190 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:56,560 Speaker 1: actually were a tough ish matchup for Oklahoma City. I 191 00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 1: think you saw throughout these playoffs. And here's why Demant say, 192 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 1: when the ball is going to be handled for forty 193 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: eight minutes essentially by either Luca or Lebron, when those 194 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 1: two guys are going to be pulling the trigger on 195 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 1: your offense and your decision maker, you're just not going 196 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 1: to have those twelve turnover halves that OKC forced on 197 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 1: everyone else. Like you saw their guys on the perimeter, 198 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:36,720 Speaker 1: their Dort and Caruso and Wallace and all those guys. 199 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 1: Their physicality, their strength, JDB, their length, bother everybody. Poor 200 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 1: TJ McConnell was in hell once he had to play, 201 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 1: you know, a full stretch. Haliburton was struggling really throughout 202 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 1: the series. You saw what they did to Aunt. They 203 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 1: made all these guys look like, what's wrong with them? 204 00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:02,880 Speaker 1: Why aren't they being more aggressive? And just because of 205 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 1: the size Luke and Lebron both being six' eight and the, 206 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 1: strength it wasn't at The lakers were not going to 207 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:16,960 Speaker 1: have these repeated twenty plus turnover. Games and that Was 208 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 1: okac's cheek. Code, now flipside might have been even without, 209 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 1: that The lakers didn't have anyone who could Guard shay 210 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 1: or you, know consistently Guard jadab Or chad or, whatever 211 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 1: and they would have lost because of. That but it. 212 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 1: Wasn't when you look back and you, Say okac just 213 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 1: rolled through, everybody and at the end of the regular, 214 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:42,880 Speaker 1: season in games they seemed to take, seriously The lakers 215 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 1: blew them out one and then we're in position to 216 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 1: beat them. Another why was? That my answer is flatly 217 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 1: because they weren't going, to you, know be able to 218 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 1: be as piranha ish When luke And lebron are handling 219 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 1: the decision making for the entirety of the. Game but didn't. 220 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 1: Matter The lakers couldn't get Past minnesota the. Thunder, meanwhile 221 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 1: very very unique postseason demons in that rounds one in 222 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 1: rounds three FOR, okc no resistance, whatsoever and then rounds 223 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 1: two in rounds, four lose game, one Lose game, three 224 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 1: lose game, six face a game, seven and then kind 225 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 1: of control the majority of that game.

Beat boston is set. Up the 280 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 1: only thing that's gonna Stop boston is, uh you, know 281 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:07,479 Speaker 1: the the newest de facto hard cap and Second apron 282 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 1: and all. That and by the, WAY i didn't even 283 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:12,119 Speaker 1: tease off top of the. Show Obviously Drew holiday traded this. 284 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:17,400 Speaker 1: Morning we'll get to that.

Year they have all these draft. 289 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 1: Assets they but they what prevents you from Repeating sometimes 290 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:43,880 Speaker 1: team gets. Old well that's not gonna. Happen, Okay, see 291 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 1: they're incredibly. Young sometimes bad, luck bad, matchup certainly on the. 292 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 1: Board you know WHAT i mean that that what happened 293 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:57,720 Speaker 1: To denver last year happens To. Oka see where it's, 294 00:19:57,760 --> 00:19:59,399 Speaker 1: like all of a, sudden you just run into the 295 00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 1: wrong tea early in the playoffs and they clip. You 296 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,800 Speaker 1: Rudy gobert hits a turnaround twelve footer and all of a, 297 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 1: sudden your season's. Over what happened To boston this, year 298 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 1: sadly can get. You the, injuries you know WHAT i? 299 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 1: Mean LIKE, okc while dealing with injuries in the regular, 300 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:22,920 Speaker 1: season had perfect health in the. Playoffs the other thing 301 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:25,680 Speaker 1: that can get you is and this is a Point 302 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:28,159 Speaker 1: wild's has been, making AND i think it's a smart. 303 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:36,400 Speaker 1: One ownership more than the. Players ownership relaxes because they got. 304 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:40,119 Speaker 1: One it's, like well we got, one so do you, 305 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,440 Speaker 1: know do we need to go deep into the? Tax 306 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:44,679 Speaker 1: do we need to do these? Things so all of 307 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 1: those THINGS i think are in. Play and the other 308 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:55,239 Speaker 1: THING i would say is, this let's just look at 309 00:20:55,240 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 1: The Western conference over the next five. Years if you 310 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:04,159 Speaker 1: THINK okac is about to go on a real dominant 311 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 1: run and say win the conference three of the next five, 312 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:12,359 Speaker 1: years that's not even win the, title just win the 313 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:15,880 Speaker 1: conference three of the next five. Years so that means 314 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:20,640 Speaker 1: in the next five years just for finals, appearances there 315 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:24,400 Speaker 1: would only be too available For jokics through the rest 316 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:29,920 Speaker 1: of his, Prime luca in his entirety of his prime 317 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:35,440 Speaker 1: essentially with The, lakers Whatever wimby. Becomes This rockets team 318 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:42,920 Speaker 1: THAT i think is spectacular aunt With, Minnesota Stephen jimmy 319 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 1: together like there is an element of there's gonna be 320 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 1: a lot of people left without a seat in the 321 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 1: musical chairs of just trying to make a, finals much 322 00:21:56,640 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 1: less win a. Championship so DO i think That thunder 323 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:06,080 Speaker 1: are built like to have the runway similar to The 324 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 1: spurs With, duncan, who by the, Way presty was part 325 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 1: of building that. Team we're from nine to two thousand and, 326 00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:17,400 Speaker 1: seven that team won four. CHAMPIONSHIPS i do think they 327 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 1: are built. SIMILARLY i also think we have to adjust 328 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,919 Speaker 1: our eyes for what dominance can be in THE. Nba 329 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 1: somebody tweeted this demands and THEN i know you have 330 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 1: a bunch of follow ups that we still need to get. 331 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 1: To BUT i thought this was such a unique way 332 00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:38,160 Speaker 1: to look at, it and it. Was this was actually 333 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 1: being tweeted in the midst of like A Jordan lebron, 334 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 1: argument but separate that part from, it and it's just 335 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: kind of A i think interesting. Perspective and it was 336 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:57,439 Speaker 1: a very simplistic timeline of as time goes on in THE, 337 00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 1: nba the hurdle or the maximum championships possible gets lower and. 338 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 1: Lower so the person's point was, this THE nba basically, 339 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 1: starts what's the most you can? Win, WELL i don't. 340 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 1: Know Russell celtics won, eleven so that's the you know 341 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 1: WHAT i, mean there's eight teams for most of that 342 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 1: the most you can win is basically all of. Them then, 343 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:32,160 Speaker 1: next you, know kind of era of iconic top ten 344 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,919 Speaker 1: with a bullet in the goat debate Players kareem And 345 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:40,440 Speaker 1: Michael kareem the seventies through the. Eighties michael the eighties 346 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:44,200 Speaker 1: through the, nineties what's the most you can? Win six? 347 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 3: Each? 348 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:53,479 Speaker 1: Okay? Interesting then the next iconic Guys kobe And, duncan 349 00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 1: what's the most you can? Win they both won? Five 350 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 1: and then the next iconic Guys lebron And steph what's 351 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 1: the most you can? Win they both won? Four so 352 00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 1: is you, know so again it's it's probably a little too. 353 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 1: Simplistic but the point being is For wimby in TODAY'S, 354 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 1: nba is like the maximum going to be actually, three you, 355 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:30,720 Speaker 1: know like that's realistically possible to? Do or is it 356 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:33,919 Speaker 1: gonna be reset again or is it just going to For, 357 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:40,879 Speaker 1: Jokic Jannis, Tatum Shay, luca, who by the, way is 358 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:44,119 Speaker 1: the one man of that young top five that's you 359 00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:47,720 Speaker 1: know without One ant as, well but and has also 360 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 1: hasn't even been to a, finals AND i think people 361 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 1: Think luke is better Than.

Mvp So, 552 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:15,000 Speaker 2: KAREEM mj And shack are the only folks that have done. 553 00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:16,640 Speaker 3: That where does this PUT sga? 554 00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:19,719 Speaker 2: Statistically would you say that he has a case of 555 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:21,480 Speaker 2: being the best ever or having the best? 556 00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:24,120 Speaker 1: Season, sorry, yeah, NO i knew what you, meant the 557 00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:31,200 Speaker 1: best season. Ever, no it's it's not to be, HONEST i. 558 00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:36,480 Speaker 1: DON'T i don't think this is as far as individual 559 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:44,839 Speaker 1: seasons guys have. HAD i don't think this is one 560 00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:50,040 Speaker 1: of the ten best individual SEASONS us any, player any 561 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:58,360 Speaker 1: single player has. HAD i think that that that stat 562 00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:03,040 Speaker 1: that you just read gets warped a bit by the 563 00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 1: scoring title piece of. It so because the reason it 564 00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:13,719 Speaker 1: is so kind of unique or difficult or hard to 565 00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:20,839 Speaker 1: do everything you just listed was because typically the scoring 566 00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:23,799 Speaker 1: title the guy who scores the most. Points is not 567 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:26,840 Speaker 1: on the best, team or you, know is not isn't 568 00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:29,800 Speaker 1: his team's not the. Champ but there have been plenty 569 00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:33,760 Speaker 1: of guys that have had unbelievable, SEASONS i, think better 570 00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 1: seasons THAN sga this year that just didn't win the scoring, title, 571 00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:45,840 Speaker 1: Right SO i would argue That steph in twenty, fifteen 572 00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:48,600 Speaker 1: even THOUGH i think he only averaged twenty four points a, 573 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:54,000 Speaker 1: game that was a more impressive individual season Than shay this. 574 00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 1: YEAR i think there have been a bunch of lebron, 575 00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:04,759 Speaker 1: seasons notably the two championship seasons In, miami both of 576 00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:07,680 Speaker 1: which he Won LEAGUE, mvp won The title One FINALS, 577 00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:12,799 Speaker 1: mvp that were more impressive Than shae this. YEAR i 578 00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:18,240 Speaker 1: think That joker two years ago had a better season 579 00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:23,960 Speaker 1: Than shae this. Year and SO i now Again i'm 580 00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 1: not trying to like blow Out shay's, candle but the 581 00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:33,440 Speaker 1: the scoring, TITLE, Mvp Title, FINALS, mvp you, know quad 582 00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:38,920 Speaker 1: fecta and it only being done By kareem in seventy, 583 00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:42,520 Speaker 1: One shack in either two thousand or two thousand and, 584 00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:47,239 Speaker 1: One jordan four, times shout OUT mj AND sga is, 585 00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:51,640 Speaker 1: noteworthy but maybe a little. Misleading when you talk about 586 00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:55,760 Speaker 1: the most impressive seasons IN nba, history WHAT i will 587 00:39:55,840 --> 00:40:04,600 Speaker 1: say is, THIS i do think best seasons start to 588 00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:17,840 Speaker 1: finish by a guard IN nba. HISTORY i think Only 589 00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:30,040 Speaker 1: Michael magic And steph have, definitively without a, doubt had 590 00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:34,440 Speaker 1: better ones Than shay this. Year there's an argument For 591 00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:42,960 Speaker 1: KOBY o. Nine there is an argument For isaiah eighty. 592 00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:47,399 Speaker 1: Eight i'm, sorry eighty. Nine there is. 593 00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:49,920 Speaker 3: An. 594 00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:55,879 Speaker 1: Argument is there Anyone i'm leaving out WHEN i, SAY 595 00:40:56,000 --> 00:41:03,600 Speaker 1: i mean there's Again Michael, Magic steph def there's an, argument, sorry, 596 00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:09,640 Speaker 1: folks For koozy fifty? Seven there is look it? 597 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:12,360 Speaker 3: Up and. 598 00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:20,600 Speaker 1: Is there any recent guard That i'm? Forgetting i'm at 599 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:24,080 Speaker 1: What i'm trying to. Do there is the the box 600 00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:26,880 Speaker 1: that has to be. Checked is led your team to 601 00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:32,400 Speaker 1: a championship as the, clear, uncut unquestioned best player team 602 00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:36,920 Speaker 1: was awesome start to. Finish you put up great numbers 603 00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:43,400 Speaker 1: on your. Own he's not a. Guard he's not A 604 00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:46,839 Speaker 1: he's not a. Guard And tatum last year wasn't better 605 00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:49,480 Speaker 1: Than shay this. YEAR i don't think you think. 606 00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:49,600 Speaker 3: That. 607 00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:56,120 Speaker 1: No the but the so that's the, thing that's why 608 00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:58,920 Speaker 1: it's most of The guys who lead teams to championships 609 00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:02,920 Speaker 1: are wings or bigs over the course OF nba, History 610 00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:06,680 Speaker 1: they're not true. Guards So nash obviously never did. It 611 00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:13,600 Speaker 1: kid never did. It the, argument here's the six things 612 00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:19,000 Speaker 1: About Wade. No. SIX i think this year was definitively 613 00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:22,480 Speaker 1: better Than Wade. No six Because Wade. No six was. 614 00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:24,799 Speaker 3: He was. 615 00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:32,920 Speaker 1: NOT i don't think he was Definitively maybe the was 616 00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:36,879 Speaker 1: he definitively the best player on the heat in the 617 00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:40,600 Speaker 1: regular season that. Year that's the QUESTION i. Have i'm 618 00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:43,759 Speaker 1: gonna and maybe he. Was shack had been the best 619 00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 1: player of the year before that. Year He, yeah D 620 00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:50,160 Speaker 1: wade was. TWENTY i just looked it up D. Wade it's, weird, 621 00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:53,560 Speaker 1: though D wade was twenty seven a game And shaq 622 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:59,399 Speaker 1: was just. Twenty but ALL Nba shaq was first team 623 00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:03,360 Speaker 1: in D wade a second. Team so who were the 624 00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:09,759 Speaker 1: guards for ALL? Nba, Oh kobe And Nash. Okay so, 625 00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:12,040 Speaker 1: no this was better than D wade oh? Six like, 626 00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:18,759 Speaker 1: so but the only guys who Again steph, fifteen and 627 00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:20,520 Speaker 1: people can argue with me about. Stuff they're, like he 628 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:26,040 Speaker 1: didn't even win FINALS. Mvp what he did with That 629 00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:30,360 Speaker 1: warriors team was so incredibly. Unique steph, Fifteen JORDAN a 630 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:34,000 Speaker 1: handful of, Times MAGIC a handful of times are the 631 00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:38,160 Speaker 1: Only guard years THAT i can say are hands down 632 00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:48,480 Speaker 1: better than This shay. Year KOBE o nine you can, 633 00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:53,360 Speaker 1: argue And Bob cousey nineteen fifty seven you can argue 634 00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:57,600 Speaker 1: were better than This shay year and any Other guard 635 00:43:57,680 --> 00:44:02,200 Speaker 1: year INCLUDE i guess you can argue Sixty, wade but 636 00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:05,319 Speaker 1: it's tough when one guy Wins LEAGUE mvp and the 637 00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:10,239 Speaker 1: other guy is second Team ALL, nba it's hard to 638 00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 1: Argue wade had a better year that. Year and so that, 639 00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:18,600 Speaker 1: that to me is where it ranks kind of. Historically 640 00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:28,919 Speaker 1: uh and so so, four go, ahead yea, Four let's 641 00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:33,359 Speaker 1: go to the The What max said? 642 00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:37,680 Speaker 2: Here, yeah he said IF sga wins FINALS, mvp he 643 00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:39,279 Speaker 2: should be ranked higher all the time Than. 644 00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:43,319 Speaker 3: Yannis his career is almost. Over it's downhill for him from. 645 00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:47,520 Speaker 1: Here so that was a comment from our Previous. 646 00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:50,879 Speaker 3: Uh good looks.

Twentieth now he has moved. Up, so, 693 00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:55,200 Speaker 1: yes all of those things did. Happen does that have 694 00:47:55,360 --> 00:48:01,839 Speaker 1: anything at all in any possible world relation to If 695 00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:05,480 Speaker 1: Shay Gilges alexander is better Than? Yannis it does, Not 696 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:11,040 Speaker 1: and it's, uh it's a louted again to be, clear 697 00:48:11,560 --> 00:48:14,920 Speaker 1: if you Think shay's better Than yannis right, NOW i 698 00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:18,160 Speaker 1: actually don't think. THAT i think the best players in 699 00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:23,640 Speaker 1: the world Go joker, One jannis, Two shay, Three luca. 700 00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:26,560 Speaker 1: FOUR i think that's the fair ranking of, it With 701 00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:31,520 Speaker 1: tatum being off the board due to The. Achilles but 702 00:48:31,680 --> 00:48:35,279 Speaker 1: to say Yannestly luca's had Or shay's had a better 703 00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:38,960 Speaker 1: career Than jannis is is an. Absurdity all, Right let's Talk. 704 00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:42,200 Speaker 3: Caliburton Tyree's haliburton try to play through that. 705 00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:46,439 Speaker 2: Injury obviously Towards, achilles you committed him on first things 706 00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:49,839 Speaker 2: first or playing through that is his injury in game 707 00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:55,160 Speaker 2: seven the single biggest story of the finals or the playoffs, Included. 708 00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:57,800 Speaker 1: NO i don't think. So the story has to be the. 709 00:48:57,920 --> 00:49:03,640 Speaker 1: Champion but the most memorable piece of this is his. 710 00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:09,480 Speaker 1: Injury and SO i said almost all of this ON, 711 00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:12,319 Speaker 1: tv BUT i want to reiterate it. Here it's two. 712 00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:16,520 Speaker 1: Things one is you, KNOW i am not going to 713 00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:25,240 Speaker 1: run from or pretend. That After game, SIX i didn't 714 00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:31,840 Speaker 1: have real, questions SO i definitely hold on that that didn't. 715 00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:35,080 Speaker 1: HAPPEN i. Did at no point DID i call him. 716 00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:37,480 Speaker 2: Saw, no you didn't get but you were, like if 717 00:49:37,520 --> 00:49:39,480 Speaker 2: you're if you're moving around like you you got to play. 718 00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:44,480 Speaker 1: Well AND i WHAT i said was he didn't look. 719 00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:49,120 Speaker 1: Hurt that it seemed like like it. WAS i said 720 00:49:49,200 --> 00:49:53,360 Speaker 1: that for a guy to have a calf strain and 721 00:49:53,520 --> 00:49:56,320 Speaker 1: supposed to be out a month or a few, weeks 722 00:49:56,360 --> 00:50:01,680 Speaker 1: which is what the reporting was right to injure it 723 00:50:01,760 --> 00:50:04,760 Speaker 1: and then play after the injury and game in game 724 00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:08,359 Speaker 1: five played twenty seven minutes after the, injury and then 725 00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:13,000 Speaker 1: in game six was. AWESOME i, said, like is unlike 726 00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:18,160 Speaker 1: any calf Strain i've ever. Seen. NOW i actually was 727 00:50:19,239 --> 00:50:29,400 Speaker 1: watching game seven with some ACTIVE nba, players and when it, 728 00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:36,440 Speaker 1: happened everybody all reacted the. Same BUT i just, SAID 729 00:50:36,520 --> 00:50:39,120 Speaker 1: i was, like HOW i was, like if it was 730 00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:43,520 Speaker 1: that close to, tearing how did he move like? That 731 00:50:43,560 --> 00:50:48,080 Speaker 1: in game? Six and what one player in particular said 732 00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:51,960 Speaker 1: to me was said two things THAT i thought were. 733 00:50:52,040 --> 00:50:57,640 Speaker 1: Fascinating he, said in our, league the calf strains the 734 00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:05,040 Speaker 1: new torn mcl a scary precursor of a potential devastating. 735 00:51:05,080 --> 00:51:09,600 Speaker 1: Injury and the other thing they said was the calf, 736 00:51:09,640 --> 00:51:16,360 Speaker 1: strain it's not it's not like a hamstring where it 737 00:51:16,440 --> 00:51:22,319 Speaker 1: be when it, happens you just simply can't stay as, well, right, right, 738 00:51:22,520 --> 00:51:26,359 Speaker 1: Right but it's it's that he's like with a hamstring 739 00:51:27,320 --> 00:51:31,400 Speaker 1: or a, groin you can see that impact it has 740 00:51:31,920 --> 00:51:34,680 Speaker 1: because of HOW nba players, move they can't move as. 741 00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:38,600 Speaker 1: Well they're like with a calf you can move a 742 00:51:38,640 --> 00:51:43,000 Speaker 1: lot of times like, okay and you won't see. It 743 00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:49,560 Speaker 1: but the only way to get it to heal it 744 00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:52,200 Speaker 1: is to stay off. It, Right he, was, like it 745 00:51:52,280 --> 00:51:55,040 Speaker 1: has if you get a calf, strain it's gotta be 746 00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:58,719 Speaker 1: WHAT i was he told, me was three or four 747 00:51:58,800 --> 00:52:02,840 Speaker 1: weeks of, nothing of just flatly staying off it or 748 00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:07,000 Speaker 1: else you risk. That and SO i. LISTEN i didn't know. 749 00:52:07,120 --> 00:52:09,759 Speaker 1: That and so WHEN i Saw hallie moving around like 750 00:52:09,800 --> 00:52:13,360 Speaker 1: he was in game, six like the timeline of My 751 00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:17,600 Speaker 1: haliburton takes where game FIVE i In demon's disagreed with 752 00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:19,839 Speaker 1: me on. IT i didn't really cut him a lot 753 00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:23,560 Speaker 1: of slack for a zero field goal zero for six 754 00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:28,360 Speaker 1: performance because he was playing and in game six he 755 00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:31,920 Speaker 1: was so fluid and so. GOOD i, thought, okay like 756 00:52:32,040 --> 00:52:34,480 Speaker 1: he's you, know dodge the bullet. Here of course he's 757 00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:37,680 Speaker 1: gonna play game. Seven of course he was gonna play game. 758 00:52:37,719 --> 00:52:40,319 Speaker 1: Six and then in game seven minutes and he tears his. 759 00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:49,840 Speaker 1: Achilles so all that, happened, right and people can judge 760 00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:52,960 Speaker 1: it however they, want like that's. Fair is? Fair the 761 00:52:54,920 --> 00:53:00,760 Speaker 1: here is my updated if you will opinion that maybe 762 00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:06,400 Speaker 1: people will judge this as. Well it's good that he. 763 00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:11,520 Speaker 1: Played he was supposed to, play he wanted to, play 764 00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:19,680 Speaker 1: and he took a risk that he was supposed to. 765 00:53:19,719 --> 00:53:26,080 Speaker 1: Take when you and people were, like well it cost. 766 00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:29,200 Speaker 1: Them it cost him and them all of next. Year 767 00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:34,239 Speaker 1: if the goal of team sports is to win a, 768 00:53:34,320 --> 00:53:44,000 Speaker 1: championship games six and seven of THESE Nba, Finals demons 769 00:53:44,239 --> 00:53:51,520 Speaker 1: had more championship equity attached to him the next season 770 00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:56,160 Speaker 1: in its entirety for The Indiana, pacers like when you 771 00:53:56,239 --> 00:54:01,040 Speaker 1: are that, close like those games are worth more in 772 00:54:01,600 --> 00:54:05,520 Speaker 1: your chance to win a, championship then the entirety of 773 00:54:05,560 --> 00:54:12,040 Speaker 1: next season they just are and the goal your, mindset 774 00:54:12,080 --> 00:54:15,440 Speaker 1: and also just for your, teams like for The. Pacers 775 00:54:16,480 --> 00:54:22,880 Speaker 1: the What halliburton's performance In game six and even just 776 00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:28,200 Speaker 1: the five minutes Of game seven added more to The 777 00:54:28,239 --> 00:54:34,080 Speaker 1: pacers championship probability than him having a full ALL nba 778 00:54:34,200 --> 00:54:37,640 Speaker 1: season next, year because even if that, happens like you 779 00:54:37,719 --> 00:54:39,680 Speaker 1: still have to get through the whole tournament and get, 780 00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:45,400 Speaker 1: there and so they were. There so the only and 781 00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:49,080 Speaker 1: QUALIFIER i think that one would put on it Is, 782 00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:51,560 Speaker 1: yes that's all. True the goal of team sports to 783 00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:54,080 Speaker 1: win a. Championship with the goal of anyone in what 784 00:54:54,120 --> 00:54:56,560 Speaker 1: they do for a living is to make a living 785 00:54:56,600 --> 00:54:59,960 Speaker 1: for them and their. Family so If Tyrese haliburton were 786 00:55:01,800 --> 00:55:06,840 Speaker 1: in the final year of a rookie contract and hadn't 787 00:55:07,120 --> 00:55:11,560 Speaker 1: been you, know re, signed then you do have to 788 00:55:11,640 --> 00:55:15,799 Speaker 1: do some personal math on what this means for me 789 00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:18,640 Speaker 1: and the PEOPLE i care about and all of. That 790 00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:23,000 Speaker 1: but when you Are Tyrese haliburton and you are in 791 00:55:23,120 --> 00:55:27,279 Speaker 1: the first year of a five, year two hundred and 792 00:55:27,280 --> 00:55:34,760 Speaker 1: fifty million dollar contract and you can play and play 793 00:55:34,880 --> 00:55:41,400 Speaker 1: well through the injury while risking, catastrophe which is what, 794 00:55:41,600 --> 00:55:46,520 Speaker 1: happened playing is the right. Thing he made the right. 795 00:55:46,600 --> 00:55:51,080 Speaker 1: Call it went terribly for, him but he made the right. 796 00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:54,120 Speaker 1: Call and by the, WAY i said this ON tv 797 00:55:54,280 --> 00:56:00,799 Speaker 1: yesterday and then he today or last night tweeted this, 798 00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:09,200 Speaker 1: well tweeted a, lot but one of the things he 799 00:56:09,239 --> 00:56:15,200 Speaker 1: wrote is the, Following i'll just read you the whole. 800 00:56:15,239 --> 00:56:15,399 Speaker 4: Thing. 801 00:56:16,120 --> 00:56:18,960 Speaker 1: Man don't know how to explain it other than.
