Before we get 89 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 3: to the Kyrie Trade and before we get to our 90 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 3: winners and losers to the NBA Weekend, we did have 91 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 3: a weggie just quickly Friday night, Eric Gordon sticking one 92 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,040 Speaker 3: there against the wraps which was always fun. 93 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 4: That looked on purpose. I mean he was within two 94 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 4: feet of the rim. 95 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 3: Well, it's funny you say that. Tests maybe it was 96 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:22,840 Speaker 3: because that was Eric Gordon's second consecutive wedgie. He had 97 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,479 Speaker 3: number thirty one and now he has number thirty two 98 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 3: and outside of Reggie Jackson giving us two weggies in 99 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 3: the same game. Wow, not sure that's ever happened. So 100 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 3: maybe he was trying to stick that one on purpose. Anyway, 101 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 3: thirty two edgies, you'll love to see it. Way to 102 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 3: go eg. Okay, let's get let's get into the Kyrie trade. 103 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 4: Now. 104 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 3: We did an emergency podcast on Sunday.

Yeah, 115 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:21,160 Speaker 3: we did an emergency podcast for that one too, after 116 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 3: talks of a possible contract extension with the Nets broke down. 117 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,919 Speaker 3: So he now joins his fourth team in seven seasons. 118 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 3: I promised that I would let you do this. I 119 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 3: really botched it there when we went to that board. 120 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 3: But it's been so long since we've heard the Southern lawyer. 121 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:38,719 Speaker 3: Do you want to just get ready for this week? 122 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 3: Trade deadline week?

Check that out. 128 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 3: But let's come at this from a different angle here today. 129 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 3: Let's play grade that trade, and we'll do it from 130 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 3: both sides here, both teams. Let's begin with the Dallas Mavericks. 131 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 3: We're looking for a grade from the Dallas Mavericks side 132 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 3: of things. 133 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 4: Task. 134 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 3: You've had a little more time to think about it. 135 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 3: You were high on it yesterday. I'll be honest. On 136 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 3: the emergency podcast, you were starting to talk yourself into 137 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 3: the Mavericks. Winning a championship, ky I. 138 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 4: Mean conference final is shure, But. 139 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 3: How would you grade the trade from Dallas Maverick side 140 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 3: of things? 141 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 4: The Maverick side of things, I'm giving them two grades 142 00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 4: A for this season, C for future seasons, and C 143 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 4: stands for cluster f because who knows what's going to 144 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 4: happen in future seasons. But as for this season, their 145 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 4: ceiling is way higher than with Spencer Dinwiddie and Dorian 146 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 4: Finney Smith. In my opinion, I like the fact that 147 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 4: Kyrie Irving is playing for a contract and he was 148 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 4: playing for it in Brooklyn and you saw he was 149 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 4: playing spectacularly well. I think he can play well for 150 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 4: the next few months. He does raise the ceiling of 151 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 4: this team for the next few months after that. As 152 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 4: aman Zach Harper said on the athletic ceiling is really high, 153 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 4: but the floor is love. Who knows what could happen. 154 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 4: I do think the MAVs signed him to a four 155 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 4: year max this offseason. I don't think they gave up 156 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 4: what they gave up to just have him around for 157 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 4: a rental that was not a rental price. And it's risky, baby, 158 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 4: I know that. I understand that people saying two ballhogs, 159 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 4: give me a break. They can play with one another, 160 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 4: no one else really requires the ball. They'll be entirely fine. 161 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 4: I'm excited to see what they can do these next 162 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 4: few months because they were an average team without him, 163 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:42,200 Speaker 4: and with what they were as they were currently constructed, 164 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 4: they could still do something. I know people are worried 165 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,320 Speaker 4: about their defense, and we can get into that, but 166 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 4: I still think they have enough around those guys. With 167 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 4: Reggie Bullock coming into the starting lineup. I'm sure Josh Green, 168 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,199 Speaker 4: who they wouldn't give up, sort of in a Jaden 169 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 4: McDaniels style. He is a very good defender. I mean, 170 00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 4: Bullock and Dwight Powell, who they still have, were starters 171 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:02,800 Speaker 4: on that team that went to the conference finals. So no, 172 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 4: I'm not going to the NBA finals quite yeah, but 173 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 4: a conference finalist. I believe that man at least the 174 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 4: mas ares trying to make up for what they did 175 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,079 Speaker 4: with Jalen Brunson letting him go, but still lots of 176 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 4: worries after this season, there's no doubt. 177 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 3: How are you agree to this? 178 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 2: From the math side of things, I'm gonna be minus, 179 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:22,679 Speaker 2: which I think is what you get when you average. See, yeah, 180 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:26,079 Speaker 2: the risk is so high, but the Mavericks were desperate, 181 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 2: like they pushed all in pretty early, and Luca's currier 182 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 2: there in Dallas with the kristeps Porzingis trade that didn't 183 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 2: go well, they had to shuffle the deck after for 184 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 2: Dinwiddie and Burton's last year. With Brunson leaving, it put 185 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 2: him in an even tougher spot. Everybody's been saying all 186 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 2: season long, they need somebody else alongside Luca. This team 187 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,640 Speaker 2: is not good enough to really be challenging, and they 188 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,439 Speaker 2: got closer to a championship. I think by getting Kyrie 189 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 2: Irving that being said to me, the window to win 190 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 2: for Dallas is this season. Kyrie is in a contract year. 191 00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,200 Speaker 2: Like you're saying, task, You're probably gonna get the best 192 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 2: Kyrie that you can possibly get because he wants to 193 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 2: lock in a four year max at the end of 194 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 2: the season. That's what he was doing the past six 195 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 2: weeks for the Nets, trying to be a good guy, 196 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 2: trying to stay under the radar and show people that 197 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 2: he's still an all NBA level performer. So if you're Dallas, 198 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:16,839 Speaker 2: you have to hope that that is the case going 199 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 2: forward here, he can go everywhere anywhere he wants in 200 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:24,439 Speaker 2: the off season, So that's certainly a worry for the MAVs. Sure, 201 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 2: Luka Doncic, the clock is ticking at this point. They've 202 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 2: got three years until he can become an unrestricted free agent. 203 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 2: So to me, it's almost this year or bust for 204 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 2: the Mavericks, and I think that means getting at least 205 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 2: to a conference finals, and surely they want to go 206 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 2: farther than they did last year. 207 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 4: Scary stuff. 208 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, man, that's pretty scary stuff. You're the most 209 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 2: combustible guy in the league. They're like, we need to 210 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 2: have it. 211 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, they didn't really have. 212 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 2: Another choice, Like, who else, what's another star the Mavericks. 213 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 2: We're going to bring in at the level of Kyrie 214 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 2: Irving because they botched so many things beforehand. 215 00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:58,680 Speaker 3: Right right, right, I mean they took a big swing 216 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 3: on the Porzingi steel blew up in their face. Obviously, 217 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:03,599 Speaker 3: they let Jalen Brunson go here in free agency in 218 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 3: the last summer. Yeah, they wanted that second star. This 219 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 3: is the big part, right, Luca carries this team offensively. 220 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,959 Speaker 3: He does everything, and we've seen that work in the 221 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 3: regular season. Hell, it works an even playoff series. It 222 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 3: works in first half, and you see as the game 223 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 3: goes on, he does tire. How could you not having 224 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 3: one of the highest, you know, usage rates of all time. 225 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:30,199 Speaker 3: It's like at fifth all time right now, what Luca 226 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 3: does with the Dallas Mavericks. So it makes sense to 227 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 3: get somebody to help him out there, and they and 228 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 3: they take this big swing on Kyrie and they see 229 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 3: whether or not it works out. I thought Sam Quinn 230 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 3: of CBS Sports had a good point. It felt like 231 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 3: them as were maybe going to wait until the offseason 232 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 3: to try and land the superstar. But when you then 233 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 3: start to think about, like what package were they going 234 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 3: to put together to try and get a superstar? Which superstar? 235 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 3: First off were they going to get and weren't they 236 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 3: going to be outbid by a lot of teams anyway 237 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:58,079 Speaker 3: that had more draft capital, more players and stuff like 238 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,679 Speaker 3: that if someone were to come available. So that's maybe 239 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:03,720 Speaker 3: why they're like, all right, our only path to getting 240 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:07,000 Speaker 3: a star is to get a flawed one at the 241 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 3: right time here. And they saw the opening with Kyrie 242 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:11,199 Speaker 3: demanding a trade and saying, I'm not going to play 243 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 3: for the Nets after the season. If I'm still here, 244 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 3: and they're like, all right, let's do it, because I 245 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,320 Speaker 3: think there is some like that makes sense because the Thunder, 246 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 3: the Rockets, the Jazz, the Pelicans, the Grizzlies, the Raptors, 247 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:23,319 Speaker 3: the Knicks, they probably all if we were to get 248 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:26,080 Speaker 3: to the summer and there was whatever superstar available. I 249 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 3: think they're being outbid by all those teams in a 250 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 3: lot of cases. So this is why they are like, 251 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,239 Speaker 3: this might just be our best chance to get a 252 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,840 Speaker 3: even a volatile star to player with Luca, give it 253 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 3: a go. 254 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:40,599 Speaker 4: They definitely put forth the best package. I still like 255 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,840 Speaker 4: the Clippers package that we'll get to led by Terrence 256 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 4: Mann and a first round pick and some pick swaps 257 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:50,199 Speaker 4: a little bit more than this Nets or this mass package. 258 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 4: Excuse me, but then Nets clearly picked this package because 259 00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 4: the MAVs overpaid in comparison to other teams they win 260 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:04,560 Speaker 4: for and the Nets I think still want to make 261 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 4: some deals as well. The fact that they accepted this 262 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 4: deal four days before the trade deadline. But yeah, Cube said, 263 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:16,959 Speaker 4: we'll overpay for a risky proposition here. It's a lot 264 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:17,960 Speaker 4: of risk. There's no doubt. 265 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 3: Do we think the MAVs are done making a move 266 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 3: here before the deadline. Do we think there's something they 267 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 3: can do with some of their picks that they do 268 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:27,320 Speaker 3: still have, or Tim Hardaway Junior Burtons like those type 269 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 3: of contracts in trying to get maybe some more defensive 270 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:32,319 Speaker 3: minded guys even to add to this roster. 271 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:32,840 Speaker 4: They have to. 272 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,079 Speaker 2: They need a little bit more defense. But it's a 273 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:38,840 Speaker 2: lot easier to find defenders than it is to find superstars. 274 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 2: So the concerns about Kyrie playing alongside Luka Dancic not 275 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,080 Speaker 2: a problem for me. It reminds me very much of 276 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 2: when Chris Paul joined James Harden and everyone's like, how 277 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:48,319 Speaker 2: are they going to do that with two balls? And 278 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 2: then they led the league in wins and almost went 279 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 2: to the NBA Finals. They will figure it out offensively, 280 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 2: but between buyout guys, between the contracts of Tim Hardaway Junior, 281 00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 2: Davis Burton's, and who knows what they decide to do 282 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 2: with Christian since he was an extension candidate we were talking 283 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 2: about a couple of weeks ago. I think they can 284 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 2: figure out a way to get some help on that end. 285 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 2: Maybe they become a j Crowder team. Maybe they're interested 286 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 2: in a guy like Josh Hart. It's tricky for how 287 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 2: they can trade their pick because they owe one to 288 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 2: the Knicks still for the KP deal. It probably goes 289 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 2: this off season, yeah, which means they can put twenty 290 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 2: five pick on the table, twenty seven pick on the table, 291 00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 2: which is why they did this one. So far in 292 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,240 Speaker 2: the future, there's still moves to be made for Dallas, 293 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 2: so I think they will bring in some additional help. 294 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 3: I love how polarizing this trade is because Kyrie is involved, 295 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 3: because Kyrie is like the ultimate, Like what do you 296 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 3: see in him? 297 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:38,560 Speaker 2: Right? 298 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 3: I feel like NBA gms do this, fans do this, 299 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 3: like do you see a champion or do you see 300 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 3: a cancer? Do you see an All Star? Do you 301 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 3: see an agitator? You know? Do you see a magician 302 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:50,600 Speaker 3: when it comes to scoring? Do you see a malcontents? 303 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 3: Like whatever you want to see in Kyrie you can see. 304 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 3: And it's like the truth is it's all of the above. 305 00:14:55,880 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 3: His track record shows that both the positives and the negatives. 306 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 3: But like you can talk yourself into being like this 307 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 3: is very very hopeful, or of course you can say 308 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 3: this is going to be a complete disaster. I'd have 309 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 3: been a disaster. The last three spots for him, right. 310 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:14,440 Speaker 4: I was doing it Sunday afternoon and when it happened. Yeah, 311 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 4: I get naive about these things. I start to think 312 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:20,360 Speaker 4: it's Kyrie Irving, he can make things happen. But as 313 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 4: you said, now his fourth team in seven years, the 314 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 4: three previous teams in Cleveland, Boston, and Brooklyn, the goodbye 315 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 4: was a flame out. It was a walk out with 316 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 4: the building on fire thrice. I get the Boston they 317 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 4: handled it pretty well because they had the stars. I 318 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 4: can't wait to know. We'll discuss the Brooklyn side of 319 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 4: things and how that goes. But the relationship in Dallas 320 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 4: with Nico Harrison, who used to be a Nike executive, 321 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 4: and now we should hopefully bring that relationship along that 322 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 4: he had with Kyrie Irving to have a fruitful one 323 00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 4: in Dallas because he is a front office executive. That's 324 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 4: why they put him in the front office because he 325 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 4: had those relationships. Funny thing because Nike has uh since 326 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 4: canceled their relationship with Kyrie Irving on the floor. Yeah, 327 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 4: things look all right, and. 328 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 3: K is gonna be on his best behavior for coming 329 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 3: in here. Yeah. But but even if he is, for 330 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 3: the restless season because he is trying to get like 331 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 3: a four year, two undred million dollars deal. I mean, 332 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 3: it's still a fair question to go. Obviously they're incredible 333 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 3: offensive talent, but can they stop anyone currently as constructed? Like, 334 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 3: is this team going all that far? In playoff series 335 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 3: they lost there's a lot of holes. 336 00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 4: They've lost step with Dorian Phinney Smith, but their starting 337 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 4: lineup in the playoffs last year was Jalen Brunson, Luka Doncic, 338 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 4: Dorian Finney Smith, Reggie Bullock and Dwight Powell. They still 339 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 4: have Bullock and Dwight Powell. They'll throw in Josh Green 340 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 4: for Dorian Finney Smith. People are high on Josh Green. 341 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 4: They should be. He's a really, really good defender. They 342 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 4: lack some depth after that because they've gotten a little 343 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 4: bit thinner trading away Spencer Dinwiddie. So the bench is 344 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 4: a problem. There's gonna be a lot on Kyrie Shoulders 345 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 4: to be that bench essentially, and Kleeba has to be 346 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 4: back healthy too, So that's that's there's a lot of 347 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 4: question marks. Kleeba coming back healthy is big. Reggie Bullocks 348 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 4: being as good as he was last year is important. 349 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:17,200 Speaker 4: He he hasn't been good enough this year? Can they 350 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:18,160 Speaker 4: find somebody else? 351 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:18,639 Speaker 2: Can? 352 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:20,919 Speaker 4: Christian would play a little bit of defense. They have 353 00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:25,199 Speaker 4: enough leadership in that locker room because they had more 354 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 4: of it last year with Jalen Brunson on the floor. 355 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:29,480 Speaker 4: There's a lot of questions. There's a lot of questions. 356 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:32,119 Speaker 3: So we're gonna get a lot of Mavericks targeting Alex 357 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 3: kru So this week, Mavericks targeting Yaka Pernl this week. 358 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:37,679 Speaker 3: You know, like those type of names. Probably, all right, 359 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:40,119 Speaker 3: let's switch over to the Brooklyn Net side of things. Tray, 360 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:42,679 Speaker 3: you get it started. What's your grade, Professor Kirby? 361 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 2: Just a nice solid bee. Okay, they say seized get degrees, 362 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 2: so to bees, I can't give them. That's an a 363 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 2: though they got worse. They definitely got worse. They downgraded 364 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:58,119 Speaker 2: from Kyrie eering to Spencer Dinwiddie, and I literally already 365 00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 2: forgot the other because I didn't write it here, because 366 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:04,640 Speaker 2: this says DFS Daily Fantasy Sports Dinwitty, the Daily Fantasy Sports. 367 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:07,119 Speaker 2: I see people are big enough the nets for the 368 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 2: return they got. They definitely got a good return considering 369 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 2: the circumstances. Kyrie was out of there. They want to 370 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:15,359 Speaker 2: wash their hands of the headache that was Kyrie Irving. 371 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 2: But if Spencer, Dinwiddie and Doriy and Finney Smith were 372 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 2: that big of a deal, people wouldn't have been saying 373 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,399 Speaker 2: that Luca dont just needed help for the entirety of 374 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 2: the season. So I think they did a good job 375 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:28,919 Speaker 2: considering they want to remain competitive. That is the biggest 376 00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:31,639 Speaker 2: indication in this deal to me, is that the Nets 377 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 2: still want to try this year. Because Kevin Durant has 378 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:36,440 Speaker 2: played so well and he's getting so close to coming back. 379 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,680 Speaker 2: There is the potential for addition by subtraction. Just having 380 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 2: this Kyrie Irving everything not hanging over their heads, I 381 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:46,479 Speaker 2: think is good, and I mean if the Nets are 382 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:49,480 Speaker 2: gonna get freaky with it. They got two rotation players 383 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:51,560 Speaker 2: and an asset, So now they've got a lot of duplication, 384 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 2: right Seth Curry, Joe Harris, Cam Thomas, similar style players. 385 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:58,919 Speaker 2: You don't need all three of them right now, especially 386 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:02,119 Speaker 2: considering dinwitdy Iss, co In royce O'Neil, Dorian, Finney Smith, 387 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 2: similar players. They've got this extra pick. Now they got 388 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:07,119 Speaker 2: a couple of extra picks as well. They could make 389 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 2: another move yeah, going forward, so we'll see what they do. 390 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 2: They need some more size. They probably just need to 391 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 2: consolidate some of these players here. But I think the 392 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 2: Nets did a really good job, considering their hands were 393 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:18,640 Speaker 2: a little bit tied with Kyrie's saying he wants out. 394 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 3: Would you agree with that? It's considering the pressure they 395 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,200 Speaker 3: were sort of under and how little leffage they seemed 396 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:23,359 Speaker 3: to have. 397 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 4: I also agree it's a bee. It was a nice 398 00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:28,159 Speaker 4: sober take by trade because I think a lot of 399 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 4: people out there got super excited for this return from 400 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 4: the Dallas Mavericks. I don't think you got to be 401 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 4: super excited about it. I don't think there's any reason 402 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 4: to be super excited about They are worse. They were 403 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,600 Speaker 4: closer to being a championship contender yesterday when they had 404 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:47,240 Speaker 4: Kyrie irving, and obviously circumstances forced their hand to some degree. 405 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 4: But they made this trade four days in advance of 406 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:51,960 Speaker 4: the trade deadline. They didn't wait, and I think part 407 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,479 Speaker 4: of it is the offers probably weren't getting better, But 408 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:57,399 Speaker 4: most importantly, they're going to make another move. I'm not 409 00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:59,159 Speaker 4: so high on this deal because I'm not sure it 410 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 4: pleases Kevin Durant long term, the guy who also requested 411 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:05,440 Speaker 4: a trade in the offseason to have Spencer Dinwiddie, who 412 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:09,200 Speaker 4: has you know, ruffled a few feathers in in his 413 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 4: history as well, plus Dorian Phinney Smith. Where yeah, they 414 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 4: they're they're deeper, but they traded top end talent for 415 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 4: more rotation players, so they're solid. They've got an additional 416 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:25,280 Speaker 4: Royce O'Neill and Dorian Phinney Smith and there's solid, but 417 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 4: I don't think it's enough to to really appease Ken Durant. 418 00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:30,960 Speaker 4: And that's why they're going to make another move. As 419 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:34,160 Speaker 4: Trey pointed out, they got lots of assets. I think 420 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 4: that's coming pretty soon. Because they they're fine. Kevin Durant 421 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:43,920 Speaker 4: can take them to a second round, maybe a conference 422 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 4: final on his back like he almost did a couple 423 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:49,639 Speaker 4: of years ago against the Bucks. But I don't know 424 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,640 Speaker 4: if he's extremely happy with the talent around. He's still 425 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 4: going to have to do a lot with this team. 426 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 3: But so you believe the Nets could have got or 427 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 3: there were or even better offers being presented to them. 428 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:05,200 Speaker 3: I think other teams be it, yeah, that Lakers, Clippers, 429 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 3: Suns than this Mavericks package. 430 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 4: Let's go through them real quick. Sure, I understand some 431 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 4: people may think that this one's the better package. Sure, 432 00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 4: but the Clippers one that's out there. Kevin O'Connor or 433 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:22,159 Speaker 4: the Ringer reported that Terrence Man Luke Canard one future 434 00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 4: first and two pickswaps were out there plus another salary 435 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 4: would have to make it work. I mean we threw 436 00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:29,960 Speaker 4: it out on the Emergency podcast on Friday, that man 437 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:33,960 Speaker 4: Canard Batoum and I think it was a Morris thrown 438 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,440 Speaker 4: in there. Those four guys, Marcus Morris thrown in there, 439 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:41,080 Speaker 4: just those four I thought was a decent package you 440 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 4: throw in the future first plus pickswaps. 441 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 3: They went for it. 442 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:47,240 Speaker 4: They absolutely went for it with that package. The Lakers package, 443 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:50,880 Speaker 4: Sean Scherani reporting not as scared Westbrook plus two first 444 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,359 Speaker 4: round picks. I know that's that's the solid part of it. 445 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:55,679 Speaker 4: But they want players, obviously, it's clear the Nets they 446 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 4: don't want a tank. The Lakers did not want to 447 00:21:59,040 --> 00:21:59,480 Speaker 4: give up. 448 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 3: Christi. 449 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 4: They didn't want to give up Austin Reezer, Max Christie, 450 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 4: or maybe they thought there was some more room for 451 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:09,159 Speaker 4: negotiation here because there's a few days left, so they 452 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 4: didn't have the players in this and they also wanted 453 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:14,680 Speaker 4: a two year Kyro to sign a two year extension. 454 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 4: They didn't want to rental, So I don't I wouldn't 455 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 4: put that higher than the Nets package. I do think 456 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:21,719 Speaker 4: the Clippers package is the best one. And then the 457 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:25,200 Speaker 4: Suns they offered Chris Paul J. Crowder and one first 458 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 4: round pick according to sources, not enough. I know Chris 459 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:31,640 Speaker 4: Paul is playing well. 460 00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:37,360 Speaker 3: Sounds like you would be ranking at Clippers, Mavericks, Suns, Lakers. 461 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, probably probably Lakers first because they could have done 462 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 4: a little bit more. But yeah, I think the the 463 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 4: prospect of Terrence Man having Terrence Man. I know people 464 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 4: aren't Terrence Man lovers, but far far younger than Spencer Dinwoody. 465 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 4: Plus the picks, I'm a little bit more excited about 466 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:59,399 Speaker 4: a future first round pick after the Kawhi and Paul 467 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:02,439 Speaker 4: George area is over in twenty twenty eight versus the 468 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 4: Luca one again same year, but Luca could still be 469 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 4: playing there and so I think that pick could be better. 470 00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:12,880 Speaker 3: But it's also excited about those picks. Kem Durant didn't 471 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 3: give a shit about those picks, just like Lebron doesn't 472 00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 3: give a shit about the Lakers picks. They're like, we 473 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 3: want to win a championship now, so get me players. 474 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 4: Yeah right, yep, and he two stars. 475 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,399 Speaker 2: You need two stars to win a championship. And then 476 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,959 Speaker 2: Nets no longer have two stars. So I don't think 477 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 2: Kevin Durant's going to be happy long term either. I 478 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,679 Speaker 2: think they play out the rest of this season, maybe 479 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 2: make some moves around the edges to help KD and 480 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,399 Speaker 2: you know, just figure out what their rotation is going 481 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 2: to look like going into the playoffs. But this team 482 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 2: is now a tough out. If you will, you know, 483 00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:46,720 Speaker 2: they might win a first round playoff series, but I 484 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 2: don't think they're going really any farther than that. And 485 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:51,119 Speaker 2: then we're gonna be talking Nets trades again in the summer. 486 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, we want some more emergency pozzies next few days 487 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:56,160 Speaker 4: for when they trade Cam Thomas, Seth Curry or Joe 488 00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 4: Harris or somebody of that nature. Because the Bucks are 489 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 4: still better, the Celtics are still be out of the 490 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:03,439 Speaker 4: Sixers are still better, and then they're probably in that 491 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 4: Cavs Tier two group. 492 00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:08,919 Speaker 3: Katie and Kyrie Irving played seventy four games together. 493 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:09,680 Speaker 4: That's amazing. 494 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:13,199 Speaker 3: Over three plus seasons in Brooklyn, and then you know, 495 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:16,880 Speaker 3: we had Katie and Kyrie and Harden playing sixteen games together. 496 00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:19,960 Speaker 3: They went thirteen and three when they played in those 497 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 3: sixteen games. But it is wild how quickly this has 498 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:24,880 Speaker 3: all changed, and now it's it is just Katie there. 499 00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,400 Speaker 3: But I still think a pretty good team around them. Like, okay, 500 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:27,720 Speaker 3: let me. 501 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,240 Speaker 4: Buy this way, all right? Do you think the Nets. 502 00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:32,119 Speaker 3: Are a better team than the Mavericks right now or 503 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 3: vice versa? Right now? We know there will be moves 504 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 3: to be made. I think that is a big reason 505 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:38,359 Speaker 3: why this happened on the weekend. I do agree with 506 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 3: you having a couple more days here to both teams 507 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:43,719 Speaker 3: maybe do something. But right now, who's better? The Mavericks 508 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:45,800 Speaker 3: are the Nets if Katie's healthy. I guess I should 509 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 3: have put that caveat in there. 510 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 4: I think playoff Mavericks are better than playoff Nets. I 511 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:54,160 Speaker 4: know the regular season Mavericks, nobody's super excited about that. 512 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:57,520 Speaker 4: They're a little uninspiring, but Luca takes it up to 513 00:24:57,640 --> 00:24:59,199 Speaker 4: another level in the postseason. 514 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:01,640 Speaker 3: He's playing, Yeah, but you know who takes it down, 515 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:02,680 Speaker 3: Kyrie Irving. 516 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 4: Sometimes sad sometimes yes, contract year, I'm buying it. I'm 517 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:09,440 Speaker 4: buying it for one playoffs. 518 00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 3: Okay, what about you? Nets are MAVs right now? 519 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 2: Maps Wow wow wow wow. 520 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:18,040 Speaker 3: I'm not so sure about that. I don't think so. 521 00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:20,960 Speaker 3: I love Kyrie Irving. I sometimes think I like Kyry 522 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:24,479 Speaker 3: Irving more than most people. But the Brooklyn's record when 523 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 3: he played Verus what he didn't play identical, So there's that. 524 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 3: And then he did have bad playoff runs, his like 525 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 3: percentage or his points pergadily drops significantly, so you didn't 526 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 3: go up. He even stay the same one for like 527 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:40,160 Speaker 3: twenty seven a game or like twenty two a game. 528 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,640 Speaker 3: So I think for I, you know, with a healthy KD, 529 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 3: I think I actually would go with the Nets right now. 530 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,120 Speaker 3: Because we talked about a little bit on the Emergency podcast. 531 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 3: It is you could put a really nice defensive unit 532 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:54,440 Speaker 3: around your offensive juggernaut. In KAT a lot of good 533 00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 3: guys dfs, Royce O'Neill, there is Ben Simmons, Nick Claxon, 534 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 3: and then even if in what do you use your 535 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:02,120 Speaker 3: other sort of guard out there with them? I think 536 00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:03,920 Speaker 3: that's pretty good. That's pretty good. 537 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:05,720 Speaker 2: I swept out of the playoffs like they did, like 538 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:08,679 Speaker 2: Kyle Rven was on the team. Yeah, and they got worse. 539 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 3: I'm just saying, Kyle Rveny hasn't over the last couple 540 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 3: of years been all that great in playoff series. He 541 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 3: hasn't as nice as cool as slick as these layups 542 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,439 Speaker 3: might look. There's still just two points. 543 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:21,919 Speaker 4: But what about his free throw percent? He shot one 544 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:25,159 Speaker 4: thousand percent and these four games in the playoffs. 545 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:26,000 Speaker 2: One to the conference finals last year. 546 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, that is interesting to Yeah, to compare those two 547 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 4: I think, Yeah, Luca is another animal in the playoffs 548 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:38,360 Speaker 4: and it's so come on, of course, of course, yeah, 549 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 4: he almost carried them a couple years ago. It is 550 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 4: interesting when you look at those two teams compared to 551 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:46,360 Speaker 4: each other. But then the conferences, because there's clear teams 552 00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 4: in Tier one that are above the nets in the 553 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:51,960 Speaker 4: East East, but in the West it's a little more open, 554 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,200 Speaker 4: it is. It is more open for Luca to get there, fair. 555 00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 3: Enough, can't wait? All right, Well, look, let's hear from 556 00:26:57,560 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 3: all of you out there in the stream team listening later. 557 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 3: Let us know your trade grades both sides of the 558 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:05,959 Speaker 3: equation here, mavericks and nets.

When we come back, we'll continue 561 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:11,480 Speaker 3: talking a little bit about the Kyrie deal. 562 00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, Lebron, you know Lebron, Yeah, we. 563 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:15,639 Speaker 3: Got to get into that.

Dang was 566 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 4: guessing a romanad. 567 00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:28,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, hey, look it's a safe bet, safe guess, but 568 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 3: no Indo Chino baby back in our lives, back on 569 00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:33,119 Speaker 3: our backs. 570 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,639 Speaker 4: Yeah, legs or I ordered some. 571 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 3: They don't do hats. I guess I was gonna say ahead, 572 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 3: but they don't do hats. Do they do custom Indo Chino. 573 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,639 Speaker 2: Custom top hats.

Okay, 577 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 3: we're gonna get to our winners and losers of the 578 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:55,399 Speaker 3: NBA Weekend. 579 00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 2: Here. 580 00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:57,919 Speaker 3: We usually starts with winners, but no, let's switch it up. 581 00:27:58,080 --> 00:27:59,639 Speaker 3: Let's start the losers because I feel like there is 582 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,400 Speaker 3: a little bit more to unpack here from this Kyrie 583 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:03,439 Speaker 3: erving trade of the Nets. 584 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:06,159 Speaker 4: We've got to talk about the Los Angeles teams. They 585 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 4: both lost the Los Angele the Lakers and the Clippers 586 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 4: came up short in the sweepstakes. Let's start with the Lakers. 587 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 4: They're a loser. They were desperate for another star. They 588 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 4: offered the Nets a package of Westbrook and two first 589 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 4: round picks. Those first round picks we've been talking about 590 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:23,600 Speaker 4: all season long, the twenty seventh pick, the twenty nine pick. 591 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:27,359 Speaker 4: According to Shan Sharanya, they offered it, but they didn't 592 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:30,400 Speaker 4: have the pieces to please the Nets. They just didn't 593 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:34,560 Speaker 4: have and they also didn't want Westbrook probably yeah, yeah, 594 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 4: regardless of west Ron. That's why I focused on the picks. 595 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 4: It was about the picks. They didn't want to give 596 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 4: up Austin Reeves or Max Christy, They're two young players. 597 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 4: They also wanted Kyrie to accept a two year extension 598 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 4: to trade any of those players. But it's been a 599 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 4: culmination of an entire year here where Lebron's been extremely 600 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:55,720 Speaker 4: vocal saying I need help multiple times. He was asked 601 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 4: about it a couple of days ago after Kyrie made 602 00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 4: the request if he would help on the Lakers. Lebron said, 603 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 4: how do you say that. Duh, that's a dug question. 604 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:09,920 Speaker 4: They they could have made a move for Kyrie in 605 00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 4: the off season as well. It's sort of been an 606 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:15,320 Speaker 4: eight month hunt here. The price has only gone up 607 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 4: and they weren't willing to pull it off. And then 608 00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 4: Lebron tweeted about it as well on Sunday after the 609 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 4: deal was done, and he just said, maybe it's me, 610 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:28,360 Speaker 4: maybe Kyrie doesn't What does that mean, does Kyrie? Maybe 611 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:30,400 Speaker 4: that means that Kyrie doesn't want to play with me, 612 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 4: or maybe. 613 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 2: The Lakers are not doing everything they can around him. 614 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:42,520 Speaker 4: Either way, Yeah, they they could have traded Westbrook plus 615 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 4: picks for Turner and healed at some point, and right 616 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 4: now they don't have anybody, so obviously they excuse me, 617 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 4: that's my mistake. They got ruly, he's been playing well 618 00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 4: for them, but you got to throw them in as 619 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 4: a loser, correct, Okay. 620 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:03,920 Speaker 3: I think they explored folding in a third team in 621 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 3: a potential Kyrie Lakers trade, because I mean, I almost 622 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 3: wonder if Polinka's like too difficult. I can't rap my 623 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 3: head around, but like that to me, like, look, the picks, okay, 624 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,800 Speaker 3: are enticing, but the Nets don't really want picks. We've 625 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 3: gone over this. Kevin Durant probably does it again. You 626 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:24,560 Speaker 3: don't give a shit about twenty seven to twenty nine picks. 627 00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:26,800 Speaker 3: He wants players. In theory, you want to keep them happy. 628 00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 3: You want to try and win a championship. They don't 629 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:30,600 Speaker 3: really have that. They probably don't want Westbrook and I 630 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 3: don't know about KD. I don't know if he wants 631 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,560 Speaker 3: to play with him. Again, I'm guessing not. So why 632 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:38,240 Speaker 3: wouldn't you try and route Westbrook to a third team? 633 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 3: The pick or picks go to that team, and the 634 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,440 Speaker 3: players from that third team go to the Nets to 635 00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:47,400 Speaker 3: appease them and like the Hornets or something like that 636 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 3: or other teams. 637 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 4: I would say the Nets did want picks. They did 638 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 4: trade Kyrie for a nice pick, but I agree with 639 00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:56,240 Speaker 4: you that they wanted other stuff. 640 00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 3: That was gravy to me for sure. But they wanted players. 641 00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 3: I think they made that. That was proven. Winny and 642 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:04,680 Speaker 3: Dory Fine Smith are players you can at least start 643 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 3: and play a lot of minutes. 644 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 4: Right when we planned this show, pre Kyrie trade, and 645 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:12,520 Speaker 4: there was that the trade via s I the hypothetical 646 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:17,520 Speaker 4: out there that was Lakers, Hornets, Nets. It was rerouting 647 00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 4: Terry Rosier, Mason Plumley, and Kelly Ubre to the Nets. 648 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 3: With Westbrook's contract and then a pick or two going 649 00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 3: to the Hornets for helping. 650 00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 2: Thank you for your service, which is fine. 651 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 3: I'm just curious if that was explored by they were 652 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 3: just like, no, we're not giving you Max Christy, stop 653 00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:41,760 Speaker 3: asking our final line. Maybe maybe they were a little 654 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,720 Speaker 3: convinced like nobody's gonna want Kyrie Irving, nobody wants to 655 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 3: actually add him to the locker room, so where this 656 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 3: will be the best offer there. Maybe that's why. 657 00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:52,480 Speaker 4: And I don't want to get all conspiracy theory, but 658 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:56,040 Speaker 4: that proposed trade of Westbrook and two first round picks 659 00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:59,840 Speaker 4: did not come out by seamps Ronnie until the lab 660 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 4: On tweet came out, and maybe covering their ace a 661 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 4: little bit, I think they're just there's a potential, because 662 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 4: you never know, they could just be saying, hey, lebron 663 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:12,680 Speaker 4: we tried, we tried, even if they didn't offer that. 664 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 4: I don't think that's a lock that they even offer 665 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 4: those two first round picks. 666 00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 3: And but let's keep that in mind with all these 667 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 3: proposed trade packages that come out after the fact. 668 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:23,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, because I was. 669 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 3: Even convinced the Clippers didn't want to include Terrence Man. 670 00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 3: And then of course, now after he's traded, well, oh 671 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 3: we were saying Terrence Man, now we just don't know. 672 00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:33,440 Speaker 4: I will say about that one. The difference was, there 673 00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 4: was a report from our man Lomberie at the Athletics 674 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,640 Speaker 4: before the trade happened, before the trade happened, as soon 675 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,640 Speaker 4: as the request was made, that the Clippers very very 676 00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 4: soon after made a significant quote significant offer. And does 677 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 4: that I think significant means Terrence Man plus a pick, 678 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 4: because otherwise it's I mean, he's the best player by 679 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 4: far with the most potential that they had. So if 680 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:00,720 Speaker 4: you want to call it significant, I mean they okay, 681 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 4: outside Kawhi and Paul George. If it wasn't significant, it 682 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 4: would be Kawhi bitoom. Anyway, that's where we are. The 683 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:10,600 Speaker 4: Clippers missed out as well. 684 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 3: They missed out here. 685 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 4: They apparently they offered, according to the ringer who finalized 686 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:18,640 Speaker 4: the players, Kevin O'Connor through out there, Lukenard, Terrence Man 687 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:22,960 Speaker 4: a future first and a couple pick swaps. Yeah, that's mine. 688 00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:25,840 Speaker 3: So they already they either botched it here, both of 689 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 3: these LA teams or the MAVs did them a favor, right. 690 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:34,840 Speaker 2: Yes, I think the Lakers watched it though to me, 691 00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 2: they are the team that should have done this trade. 692 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 2: It's a kind of a risk for everybody else, I think, 693 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:43,040 Speaker 2: especially the Mavericks. They could have just completely blown up 694 00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 2: their franchise in three years time. But the Lakers, it's 695 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 2: felt like Kyrie's going there. That's probably why they didn't 696 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 2: offer every single player in their rotation. They need to 697 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:56,120 Speaker 2: have a rotation going forward is key, and surely they 698 00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:57,960 Speaker 2: think they still have a chance of getting Kyrie in 699 00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 2: the summer. So why would you trade the couple of 700 00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:03,720 Speaker 2: hits you got in Austin Reeves and Max Christy random 701 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:05,400 Speaker 2: finds who can actually play for your team? Why would 702 00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 2: you trade those guys if you're gonna try and get 703 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 2: Kyrie in the summer. 704 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 3: Anyways, Yeah, you on yesterday's emergency podcast, you're pretty convinced 705 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:14,000 Speaker 3: that still goes down like that. 706 00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:16,239 Speaker 2: Why would it not be still on the table at 707 00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 2: the very least? I mean, I'm sure Cuban is gonna 708 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,480 Speaker 2: want to convince Kyrie to stick around for four years, 709 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,520 Speaker 2: considering the price that they just paid to bring him 710 00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:27,239 Speaker 2: to town. But the tee Lees have said Kyrie to 711 00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:31,120 Speaker 2: La for nine months now. Apparently the Lakers people never 712 00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 2: actually got in touch with Kyrie's people over the summer, 713 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 2: which seems kind of crazy to me that that wouldn't 714 00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:38,840 Speaker 2: actually happen, But who knows. I'm sure Danny Angel come 715 00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:40,400 Speaker 2: out and say he was very close to trading for 716 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:42,560 Speaker 2: Kyrie in this one as well. You never know what's 717 00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:44,719 Speaker 2: actually going down, but it felt like the Lakers could 718 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:46,719 Speaker 2: get him, and it still feels like the Lakers could 719 00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 2: get him. 720 00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:50,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a possibility, but you have Las as a loser. 721 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, you guys, it's seemingly you like the MAVs 722 00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:56,719 Speaker 4: package the best. 723 00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,400 Speaker 3: I think it was. I think it was very, very solid. 724 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 3: It's a good like. Again, they were this guy demands 725 00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:05,319 Speaker 3: a trade forty eight hours prior and they got back 726 00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 3: guys in Dinwitty and Dorian. I like Dorny Finnsmith. I 727 00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:10,120 Speaker 3: think he's a really really good, you know, three and 728 00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:13,239 Speaker 3: D type player that can play on a lot of teams. Sure, 729 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:15,319 Speaker 3: and then you know Dinwitty, he played some of his 730 00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:17,440 Speaker 3: best ball in Brooklyn, and I think it makes a 731 00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:19,480 Speaker 3: little more sense at least, the idea of the round 732 00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 3: of healthy Kevin Durant to play right now moving forward. Sure, 733 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,799 Speaker 3: so I thought it was good. I just think there 734 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:29,359 Speaker 3: were deals with a third team that would make sense too, 735 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:32,440 Speaker 3: to get Kyrie to the Lakers, Picks and Westbrook going 736 00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:34,279 Speaker 3: to this third team and then players going to the 737 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:36,840 Speaker 3: nets that are maybe just as enticing or if not 738 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 3: more enticing than what they ultimately got. So yeah, I'm 739 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:42,120 Speaker 3: just surprised. I thought he was going to Lakers. And 740 00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 3: maybe Tray's right that he just goes there after it's 741 00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:46,880 Speaker 3: all said and done, just signs there and it's like sorry, cubes. 742 00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:49,600 Speaker 2: Or maybe he signs a four year deal with the 743 00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:51,920 Speaker 2: Mavericks and forces a trade to the Lakers next summer. 744 00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:54,600 Speaker 3: Jesus, Yeah, yeah, that's I mean, if you're betting on anything, 745 00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 3: bet on that, because that's the most chaotic way to 746 00:35:57,680 --> 00:35:58,200 Speaker 3: go about it. 747 00:35:58,719 --> 00:35:59,960 Speaker 2: Rupply is going gallant. 748 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 4: Brain here, Carmel Anthony demanded to trade the Nick said, 749 00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:05,839 Speaker 4: we'll give you whatever you want once upon a time, 750 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:09,360 Speaker 4: to the to the Denver. Maybe Rob Plank is a 751 00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:10,000 Speaker 4: step ahead. 752 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 3: Who do you have for a lose of the weekend. 753 00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:13,800 Speaker 3: Let's get off this Kyrie. 754 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:16,000 Speaker 4: I'm with it. 755 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:18,200 Speaker 2: Wait, didn't even get into the Sun's part of it. 756 00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:20,800 Speaker 3: Enough seat they're gonna get Kevin Durant. 757 00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:22,879 Speaker 2: Just wait, is Chris Paul that wash that Kevin Durant 758 00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:24,719 Speaker 2: doesn't even want to play with him? Really makes you think? 759 00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:27,920 Speaker 2: Really makes you think. Biggest basketball loser of the weekend 760 00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:32,760 Speaker 2: on the basketball court Golden State Warriors and Stephen Curry. 761 00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:37,520 Speaker 2: Curry BEng knees with MAVs guard McKinley wright on Saturday night, 762 00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 2: and MRI subsequently revealed partial tears to his superior superior tibio, 763 00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:48,440 Speaker 2: fibular ligaments and interossious membrane, as well as a contusion 764 00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:53,120 Speaker 2: to his lower leg what no major structural damage, but 765 00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:56,600 Speaker 2: lots of pain and bruising in that knee. For Steph Curry, 766 00:36:57,120 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 2: we've heard that he's gonna miss multiple weeks, gonna miss 767 00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:03,520 Speaker 2: the All Star Game because that is within two weeks. 768 00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:06,040 Speaker 2: So there's a few main questions. First and foremost one 769 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:08,560 Speaker 2: of the Warriors, did they're gonna start Jordan Poole? He 770 00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:12,360 Speaker 2: played his best basketball starting for Curry when Curry just 771 00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:15,719 Speaker 2: missed eleven games. Also would be nice for Golden State 772 00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:18,319 Speaker 2: if Andrew Wiggins breaks out of his slum he just 773 00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:20,600 Speaker 2: recently returned to the lineup, but those are their two 774 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 2: players who are gonna need to step up in Curry's absence. 775 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:26,560 Speaker 2: The good part a manageable schedule, I would say for 776 00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:29,080 Speaker 2: Golden State. Plus they've got the All Star break, which 777 00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:32,520 Speaker 2: takes a week out of things. Golden State plays the 778 00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:35,839 Speaker 2: Clippers on February fourteenth, happy Valentine's Day, everyone, then again 779 00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 2: on March ninth. Other than that, no other teams in 780 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:40,560 Speaker 2: the top four between now and then eight of those 781 00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:43,680 Speaker 2: next eleven at home. That's all right. Warriors went seven 782 00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:46,160 Speaker 2: and eight without Steph And that's kind of the recipe here. 783 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:48,359 Speaker 2: They just got a tread water because right now two 784 00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 2: and a half back from third place in the Western 785 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:53,200 Speaker 2: Conference and also two and a half games up on 786 00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:56,280 Speaker 2: thirteenth in the Western Conference. This is a big month 787 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:59,279 Speaker 2: for Golden State. As for the All Star Game, a 788 00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:03,600 Speaker 2: couple questions who takes steps starting spot, likely John Morants, 789 00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:07,160 Speaker 2: though maybe some circumstances have changed that over the weekend, 790 00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 2: and who replaces him ultimately as a player in the 791 00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:14,920 Speaker 2: All Star Game. And does Kyrie Irving now becoming a 792 00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:16,840 Speaker 2: Western Conference player, does that have any sort of an 793 00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:19,840 Speaker 2: effect on things? Put in Deer and Fox is the 794 00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:20,640 Speaker 2: solution just put. 795 00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:23,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, the AL Star game is interesting because I don't 796 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:25,879 Speaker 4: think it changes anything really with the starters, right, because they. 797 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:29,800 Speaker 3: Just well, somebody's starter in the East, So Jalen Brown 798 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:34,480 Speaker 3: will likely be the other starting backcourt player in the East, right, 799 00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:37,359 Speaker 3: Mitchell says, in the. 800 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 4: Pool, they just picked from that jumble. Yeah, just because 801 00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:43,160 Speaker 4: Curry is out, somebody has to join that part fine, uh, 802 00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:45,480 Speaker 4: and then a new player joins, so it doesn't matter 803 00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:47,120 Speaker 4: which conference that player comes from. 804 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:51,080 Speaker 3: Probably comes from the West though, if you're replacing Curry, 805 00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:54,880 Speaker 3: I'm assuming Silver picks Fox or Aunt, though I guess 806 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:58,560 Speaker 3: because Kyrie, because there's less players now from the Eastern Conference, 807 00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:01,480 Speaker 3: I guess he could pick a Harden Brunson. I mean, yeah, 808 00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:02,759 Speaker 3: I don't think he will. 809 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:05,960 Speaker 4: But yeah, anyway, the worrisome part is for the Warriors. 810 00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:08,400 Speaker 4: I never want to count the Warriors out. There is 811 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:11,760 Speaker 4: the All Star break in there. There is a softy SCD. 812 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:13,960 Speaker 4: These next five games before the Al Star Break. It's 813 00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:18,319 Speaker 4: not incredibly hard, but I just wonder, is it just 814 00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:20,920 Speaker 4: too much to overcome. It's gonna be several weeks, It's 815 00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:24,480 Speaker 4: it's it's not gonna be quick. Yeah, so is it 816 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:26,359 Speaker 4: too much to overcome and that they haven't played great 817 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 4: for the first fifty games of the season, great enough 818 00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:31,920 Speaker 4: anyway to be a to really feel like they're a 819 00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:36,080 Speaker 4: championship contender. They obviously overcame Steph's injury last year. He 820 00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:37,759 Speaker 4: missed a good chunk of time, but that was after 821 00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:40,960 Speaker 4: they had played so well, right, So, I don't know 822 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:45,560 Speaker 4: if the superior tibio fibular ligament injury. I just want 823 00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:48,960 Speaker 4: to say that, and because that's a real thing, and 824 00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:52,719 Speaker 4: I'm glad that. Steve Kerr also said afterwards, he said, 825 00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:55,480 Speaker 4: I had no idea that was a thing, the tibio. 826 00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:59,400 Speaker 4: I thought those were two different bones, the tibia and 827 00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:02,319 Speaker 4: the phibia as the ligament connects them. Is that what's 828 00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:07,040 Speaker 4: going on? Just the top superior And it was. 829 00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:08,160 Speaker 3: Just a bang of the knees. 830 00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a weird injury. Yeah, he I mean 831 00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:12,520 Speaker 2: he came up hopping that way. You could see it 832 00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:15,960 Speaker 2: kind of like his knee bent inwards a little bit. Yeah, 833 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:17,560 Speaker 2: and it was just hopping off right away. 834 00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:21,399 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is really bad because I know we all 835 00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:23,640 Speaker 3: want to say, look, they're the champion, the defending champs. 836 00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:26,200 Speaker 3: They have Curry like you could win against anyone, But like, 837 00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:29,879 Speaker 3: is anybody going to be picking the Warriors if they 838 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:32,080 Speaker 3: have to like get in from the play in or 839 00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:35,520 Speaker 3: just be on the road in every single series to 840 00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:39,759 Speaker 3: repeat as champs. That I mean that I couldn't get there. 841 00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:41,920 Speaker 3: They to me, they have to get a little higher here. 842 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:44,440 Speaker 3: I think it helped them out to have some obviously 843 00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:47,080 Speaker 3: home games in a playoff series or two if they 844 00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 3: could get it, because that is a hell of a 845 00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:51,959 Speaker 3: task despite it still being like open to some extent, 846 00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:54,760 Speaker 3: there's no one running away with it in the Western Conference. 847 00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:58,160 Speaker 3: I'm not gonna betting on that. So this is this 848 00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:00,600 Speaker 3: sucks because he can miss all good chunk of time 849 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:02,719 Speaker 3: here and they have to slow play it because they're 850 00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:05,880 Speaker 3: like we're nothing without them, So we can't like rush 851 00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:08,319 Speaker 3: them back just to get in there. We just gotta, like, 852 00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:10,960 Speaker 3: like you said, keep our heads above water, try and 853 00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:13,359 Speaker 3: play five hundred ball over the next couple weeks. Hope 854 00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:15,720 Speaker 3: we're just still in this jumbled mess of the Western 855 00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:18,959 Speaker 3: Conference where he comes back and we have one week 856 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:21,640 Speaker 3: of good basketball and we suddenly jump for spots. Right, Yeah, 857 00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:22,439 Speaker 3: I could play. 858 00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:24,879 Speaker 4: He's a quick enough healer. And Trey mentioned the names 859 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,759 Speaker 4: that have to play better. Andrew Wagan's got to play 860 00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:30,560 Speaker 4: his best ball the season. Now, you just gotta play 861 00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:32,840 Speaker 4: a great ball, and that could help a lot. They 862 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:35,080 Speaker 4: get these five and these next five games are as 863 00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:37,399 Speaker 4: soft as it gets. Really, I mean, it could be softer, 864 00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:41,960 Speaker 4: I guess, but okay, see Portland Lakers, Washington Clippers. It's 865 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:45,080 Speaker 4: not bad if Wiggi and pool ball out. 866 00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:47,840 Speaker 3: Loser of the weekend to the Washington Wizards. I'll make 867 00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:50,480 Speaker 3: this real quick. The Wizard led by twenty three points 868 00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:53,120 Speaker 3: versus the Nets on Friday night, and they led by 869 00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:56,479 Speaker 3: twenty points versus the Blazers on Saturday night. They lost 870 00:41:56,520 --> 00:42:00,400 Speaker 3: both those games. Oh the Wizards are gonnazard. Man. They 871 00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:02,160 Speaker 3: had that six game win streak, and then they just 872 00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:05,399 Speaker 3: blow two games over the weekend up by twenty three 873 00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:08,560 Speaker 3: and then the next night by twenty and lose both 874 00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,239 Speaker 3: of them. According to ESPN Stats and Info, they are 875 00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:13,279 Speaker 3: the first team over the last twenty five seasons to 876 00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:17,800 Speaker 3: lose when leading by twenty plus points on consecutive days. 877 00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:21,080 Speaker 3: I'm almost happy that goes to the Washington Wizards. That 878 00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 3: title part static feels very wizardy. So that's just rough. 879 00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:27,399 Speaker 3: I mean, these, you know, a nice little stretch here. 880 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:30,479 Speaker 3: They're playing well in these games, good enough to build 881 00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:32,520 Speaker 3: these big leads, and they let both let go. They 882 00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:34,399 Speaker 3: open both of them, simple as that. 883 00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:37,560 Speaker 4: It's the rollercoaster with this. Yeah, yeah, sometimes they streak 884 00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 4: absolutely some. 885 00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:42,800 Speaker 3: Other news here that's sort of loser, like I guess 886 00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:47,799 Speaker 3: Mobamba Austin Rivers getting into it. On the weekend, the 887 00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:51,319 Speaker 3: NBA suspended Mobamba four games, Austin Rivers for three for 888 00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:53,880 Speaker 3: their roles in an on court altercation on Friday night. 889 00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:56,840 Speaker 3: Jell and Suggs also got one game for escalating the 890 00:42:56,880 --> 00:43:00,440 Speaker 3: incident that really pissed Rivers off. By the way, did 891 00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:03,960 Speaker 3: grabbing him by the neck when the little bru haha 892 00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:06,799 Speaker 3: went down, so he sat out Sunday's magic win over 893 00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:10,960 Speaker 3: the Hornets. Any thoughts on a very weird fight here 894 00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:13,960 Speaker 3: and how it happened. How it started with Bamba and 895 00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:16,279 Speaker 3: Austin Rivers, River shooting in the corner and Bamba. 896 00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:17,960 Speaker 2: Talking, shit, Hey, you don't see a guy come off 897 00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:20,680 Speaker 2: the bench and start throwing haymakers. All that off, and 898 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:25,600 Speaker 2: allegedly Mobamba I think, said to Austin Rivers it's not 899 00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:28,839 Speaker 2: high school anymore. And then Austin Rivers said on his 900 00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:31,120 Speaker 2: Instagram story, the only reason we know you is because 901 00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:36,680 Speaker 2: of an old rap song. Funny, honestly, just funny to me. 902 00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:39,640 Speaker 2: I don't I don't know. It's like, yeah, Austin Rivers 903 00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:41,320 Speaker 2: kind of does feel like you peaked in high school. 904 00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:47,080 Speaker 2: Same with Mobamba, like perfect guys to fight each other. 905 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:49,360 Speaker 2: I don't know. Austin Rivers has a podcast. 906 00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:51,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, conspiracy theory. He was doing all this for. 907 00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:57,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, Yeah, but he went to go shoot a corner 908 00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:01,759 Speaker 4: three and yeah, Bamba threw that comment out. He went 909 00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:04,200 Speaker 4: back on defense, turned around because he heard it, and 910 00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:06,920 Speaker 4: then went right back to that corner next time on offense, 911 00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:10,680 Speaker 4: but kept on going past the corner right to the bench. 912 00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:13,399 Speaker 4: You don't see that too, st step to him one 913 00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:18,360 Speaker 4: on five and and Bamba got out, Yeah, and Jalen 914 00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:21,239 Speaker 4: Slugs jumped into Austin Rivers didn't like the fact that 915 00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:24,239 Speaker 4: Jalen Slugs pulled him down from behind around his neck. 916 00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:26,840 Speaker 4: Fair enough, but you were in a situation whether you 917 00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:29,560 Speaker 4: had no boys around you, it was just him versus 918 00:44:29,640 --> 00:44:33,200 Speaker 4: the bench, so the numbers weren't there for him. Uh 919 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:37,600 Speaker 4: and Mobamba went right back sprinted back to the hallways 920 00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:41,359 Speaker 4: and apparently there was a lot of police back there 921 00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:44,040 Speaker 4: after the game to make sure nothing got out of 922 00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:46,719 Speaker 4: hand in that situation. But strange because the play was 923 00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:50,360 Speaker 4: on Rudy Gobert throwing it through the legs of Anthony 924 00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:54,239 Speaker 4: Edwards in the back court. Just a terrible and all 925 00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:55,960 Speaker 4: of a sudden, I think, I think as Anthony Edwards. 926 00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:58,799 Speaker 4: I'm watching Anthony Edwards and Rudy Gobert, They're gonna high 927 00:44:58,840 --> 00:45:01,279 Speaker 4: five after that. Anthony Edwards is looking off in the 928 00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:03,600 Speaker 4: distance like, oh he wasn't happy with that turnover. Oh no, 929 00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:07,120 Speaker 4: he's just looking to see a fight breakout on the bench, 930 00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:10,080 Speaker 4: which was wild and a three game in four game. 931 00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:12,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, four game for Bomba, three for Austin Rivers and 932 00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:13,799 Speaker 3: then that one for Socks that. 933 00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:17,319 Speaker 4: He's already I got Bomba even though it was one 934 00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:19,520 Speaker 4: on five. I think if it was a one on 935 00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:23,920 Speaker 4: one battle in the ring, I got Bombas Rivers scrappy. 936 00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:28,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, I actually go watch him just talk about the fight. 937 00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:29,960 Speaker 3: I don't know if you guys watched the clip of 938 00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:34,400 Speaker 3: Austin Rivers like in the postgame press conference, just like 939 00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:37,000 Speaker 3: giving his honest thoughts about it, Like it's like I'm like, man, 940 00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:40,880 Speaker 3: I gotta check out this podcasting. He's like breaking it 941 00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:43,440 Speaker 3: down and explaining how it all went down. That was intrigued. 942 00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:45,280 Speaker 3: But that was a good clip, but I think ESPN 943 00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:45,759 Speaker 3: had it up. 944 00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:49,800 Speaker 4: Apologies to to j D because I went and grabbed 945 00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:51,799 Speaker 4: that clip that we just showed you on YouTube. If 946 00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:55,000 Speaker 4: you're watching of the fight, the music that was set 947 00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:57,760 Speaker 4: to it was stone Cold Steve Austin's theme music. 948 00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:05,560 Speaker 3: Okay, because somebody not a stunner was delivered this, but 949 00:46:05,840 --> 00:46:08,879 Speaker 3: it's this is as fighty as an NBA fight, We'll 950 00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:12,520 Speaker 3: get right, I mean, yes, yeah, that's true. Well yeah, 951 00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:14,920 Speaker 3: I mean was he even a bunch really thrown? 952 00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:18,040 Speaker 4: Baba was ready to fire one until Jalen Slugs removed 953 00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:19,080 Speaker 4: his target with well. 954 00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:21,120 Speaker 3: Austin Rivers actually talking about he's like nobody in the 955 00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:23,880 Speaker 3: NBA wants to actually fight, fight, like throw a punch 956 00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:27,000 Speaker 3: because you could break your hand and then you're done 957 00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:29,680 Speaker 3: for this season and you know, could lose a ton 958 00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:30,400 Speaker 3: of money and all that. 959 00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:33,120 Speaker 4: So oh, there's that security guard that went viral. Great 960 00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:35,440 Speaker 4: story from John Krazinsky. He jumped right in there on 961 00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:37,080 Speaker 4: the Athletic I know that guy. 962 00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:41,560 Speaker 3: Well, you talked about the police presence. You talked about 963 00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:43,960 Speaker 3: police presence in the back after that one, yea, because 964 00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:47,200 Speaker 3: Bamba's sprinting back and everyone's all hot and bothered. This 965 00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:50,000 Speaker 3: is a crazy story is from the Athletic. Actually, John 966 00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:53,360 Speaker 3: Morant tweeted that a friend of his has been banned 967 00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:56,920 Speaker 3: from games at the FedEx Forum for a year. This 968 00:46:57,080 --> 00:47:00,839 Speaker 3: punishment stems from a confrontation on January twenty nine when 969 00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:04,680 Speaker 3: the Grizzlies hosted the Pacers. During the game, a lot 970 00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:07,480 Speaker 3: of barking going on between the Pacers players and then 971 00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:11,800 Speaker 3: friends of John Morant seated along the sideline. The talking 972 00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:15,520 Speaker 3: apparently continued into the player's parking area after the game. 973 00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:18,200 Speaker 3: This led to an investigation by the league. And it 974 00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:20,880 Speaker 3: gets really serious here, and it's scary. According to the Athletics, 975 00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:24,200 Speaker 3: someone in a slow moving suv, which apparently Ja Morant 976 00:47:24,239 --> 00:47:27,840 Speaker 3: was riding in, trained a red laser on these Pacers 977 00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:31,600 Speaker 3: players or personnel. The NBA investigated that part. They could 978 00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:34,840 Speaker 3: not confirm whether it was a red laser on a weapon. 979 00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:38,319 Speaker 3: But that's where we're out there again. I believe his 980 00:47:38,400 --> 00:47:41,640 Speaker 3: name is pac Johmran's friend, so he is going to 981 00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:43,719 Speaker 3: be not coming to the games for a year. But this, 982 00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:45,719 Speaker 3: I mean sounds like it got a little too damn 983 00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:48,360 Speaker 3: serious there in the back between the Pacers and the Grizzlies, 984 00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:50,279 Speaker 3: or at least Jamran's. 985 00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:53,640 Speaker 2: Friends, very very weird story. Jah has a chance to 986 00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:58,799 Speaker 2: make life changing, generational money for himself, his family, and 987 00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:01,759 Speaker 2: his friends. He's obviously the face the Grizzlies franchise. Just 988 00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:05,359 Speaker 2: got a signature shoe don't blow it, right, like, don't 989 00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:08,520 Speaker 2: blow it. He's gonna be responsible for the people around him. 990 00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:08,759 Speaker 3: Yep. 991 00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:11,440 Speaker 2: And there's just honestly too much noise around the Grizzlies 992 00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:15,239 Speaker 2: period right now. That's like something every single week at 993 00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:19,239 Speaker 2: this point off the court related that's taken away from 994 00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:21,600 Speaker 2: what they're doing on the court. So, I don't know, 995 00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:23,280 Speaker 2: weird stuff, weird weird stuff. 996 00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:25,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, And to that point, they have lost eight of 997 00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:28,120 Speaker 4: nine games, and they've lost eight of nine games since 998 00:48:28,200 --> 00:48:31,480 Speaker 4: the Shannon Sharp incident, since Dylan Brooks got into it 999 00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:34,320 Speaker 4: with Channon Sharp, their minds may not be on the 1000 00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:38,920 Speaker 4: game as much obviously this weekend injuries jaw out in 1001 00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:41,520 Speaker 4: that game against the Rep Steven Adams out, Dylan Brooks 1002 00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:43,400 Speaker 4: now suspended out of that game, right you. 1003 00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:45,239 Speaker 3: Guys are right. He ended up getting the game for 1004 00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:48,439 Speaker 3: the old nutshot there to do just one, just one 1005 00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:50,520 Speaker 3: one one only hit one. Testing. 1006 00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:55,239 Speaker 4: Yeah, they examined, they examined the desticles that he didn't 1007 00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:59,720 Speaker 4: horn frog him horn fraug good word they call it. 1008 00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:06,879 Speaker 3: I just kind of don't they do that or something? Yeah? 1009 00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:12,239 Speaker 3: Horn So I think TCU the horn Frogs they do 1010 00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:16,400 Speaker 3: something like that. I'm pretty sure they do horn frog anyway. 1011 00:49:16,760 --> 00:49:20,960 Speaker 3: Hit yeah, yeah, Okay, So let's move on here. Let's 1012 00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:23,799 Speaker 3: get to some winners of the NBA weekend. Trey Well, 1013 00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:24,279 Speaker 3: who you got. 1014 00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:27,000 Speaker 2: I know this is from the weekend, but it feels 1015 00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:29,719 Speaker 2: like six or seven years ago at this point. But 1016 00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:32,680 Speaker 2: maybe the best basketball moment of the weekend was Nick 1017 00:49:32,719 --> 00:49:36,200 Speaker 2: batoombs clutch three to send a Saturday night game against 1018 00:49:36,239 --> 00:49:40,160 Speaker 2: the Knicks to overtime. This was a wild one just 1019 00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:43,080 Speaker 2: in general. The Knicks trailed by fifteen heading into the 1020 00:49:43,080 --> 00:49:46,439 Speaker 2: fourth quarter, and Jalen Brunson got his clutch on nine 1021 00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:49,440 Speaker 2: points three assists. He finished with forty one and seven 1022 00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:52,680 Speaker 2: for the night. The Knicks had the lead with eight 1023 00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:55,640 Speaker 2: seconds left, Clippers got a nice look for Paul George 1024 00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:59,880 Speaker 2: three pointer from above the break, klank Ruski, but a 1025 00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:01,800 Speaker 2: I was played by Kawhi to keep the ball alive. 1026 00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:05,160 Speaker 2: Zubats secured the offensive rebound, and as you know, the 1027 00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:08,080 Speaker 2: best time for a three pointer, it's after an offensive rebound. 1028 00:50:08,160 --> 00:50:11,040 Speaker 2: Too much scrambling ball finds its way to Batoom on 1029 00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:13,759 Speaker 2: the right wing. Cash out. They go into overtime and 1030 00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:17,720 Speaker 2: the Clippers made fifteen free throws in overtime. That's crazy. 1031 00:50:17,880 --> 00:50:19,800 Speaker 3: It was a foul called every single time I watched 1032 00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:20,160 Speaker 3: this game. 1033 00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:23,520 Speaker 2: It's so insane how many foul calls there are that 1034 00:50:23,680 --> 00:50:26,680 Speaker 2: when you're watching the House of Highlights recap, they're having 1035 00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:30,280 Speaker 2: to put fouls in for overtime because there wasn't actual scoring. 1036 00:50:30,520 --> 00:50:32,319 Speaker 2: It was just like a cool move. Somebody gets fouled 1037 00:50:32,320 --> 00:50:34,920 Speaker 2: and make some free throws at the line. Clippers did 1038 00:50:34,920 --> 00:50:37,480 Speaker 2: the dub. They're up to fourth in the Western Conference. 1039 00:50:37,880 --> 00:50:40,600 Speaker 2: Tune in tonight Clippers versus Nets on playback. 1040 00:50:40,680 --> 00:50:46,720 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I forgot we were doing that all right?

He tweeted that he took a photo 1050 00:51:07,480 --> 00:51:10,960 Speaker 4: with a fan we just on the streets, and that 1051 00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:15,600 Speaker 4: photo said go Celtics, love your big Apa.

I 1061 00:51:35,640 --> 00:51:37,880 Speaker 3: we'll add it. Yeah, all right, who you got for 1062 00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:38,640 Speaker 3: a winn of the weekend? 1063 00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:40,840 Speaker 4: Okay, that was a good play, Tray, I got another 1064 00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:45,080 Speaker 4: great play. Corey Kispert, he's living the life. Starting guard 1065 00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:49,040 Speaker 4: for the Washington Wizards. He gets the ball, he's allowed 1066 00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:51,000 Speaker 4: to fire anytime he touches that thing. He's got a 1067 00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:54,560 Speaker 4: great percentage here in year two, forty three percent from 1068 00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:57,960 Speaker 4: three and that included the luckiest shot you will ever 1069 00:51:58,000 --> 00:52:00,080 Speaker 4: see a person take from the corner. It hit the 1070 00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:04,920 Speaker 4: absolute top corner of the backboard. Yeah, it is amazing. 1071 00:52:05,160 --> 00:52:07,760 Speaker 4: And Bradley Beal saw it. Everybody saw it from the bench. 1072 00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:11,319 Speaker 4: You had, you couldn't. You can't do that over again, 1073 00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:13,839 Speaker 4: and he had. Bradley Beal had a great angle there 1074 00:52:13,880 --> 00:52:18,400 Speaker 4: to see how it barely barely touched the top corner. No, 1075 00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:22,560 Speaker 4: occasionally you'll see the rare shot from the corner that 1076 00:52:22,640 --> 00:52:26,200 Speaker 4: hits the backboard, like the actual backboard, like mj in 1077 00:52:26,400 --> 00:52:30,120 Speaker 4: ninety six when JD was there to see Michael Jordan 1078 00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:33,840 Speaker 4: hit a shot after the buzzer against the Raptors in 1079 00:52:33,880 --> 00:52:36,239 Speaker 4: their inaugural years. That was just a little bit late 1080 00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:39,880 Speaker 4: backboard in it, but that was top corner and dropped in. 1081 00:52:40,120 --> 00:52:42,759 Speaker 4: That was amazing. The most incredible angle I think you 1082 00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:45,279 Speaker 4: can hit a three from. It happened this weekend to 1083 00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:50,000 Speaker 4: Corey Kispert, just like, yeah, is. 1084 00:52:49,960 --> 00:52:53,360 Speaker 3: Corey Kisspert gonna be in the three point contest? We 1085 00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:55,240 Speaker 3: don't know any names yet doing we're waiting. 1086 00:52:55,400 --> 00:52:57,319 Speaker 4: Yeah who we got? We got? Dame wants to be 1087 00:52:57,360 --> 00:52:59,680 Speaker 4: in it. He's allowed, he said he. 1088 00:52:59,600 --> 00:53:02,359 Speaker 3: Wants said that. Yeah, wow, this guy loves All Star. 1089 00:53:03,239 --> 00:53:04,200 Speaker 3: He loves it more than I do. 1090 00:53:05,040 --> 00:53:07,080 Speaker 4: I would throw a lowry marketing in there because he's 1091 00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:07,839 Speaker 4: in Utah. 1092 00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:08,680 Speaker 3: Good, good, good. 1093 00:53:08,840 --> 00:53:13,919 Speaker 4: I think Utah should be in it. Okay, Okay, I'm 1094 00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:15,480 Speaker 4: out guys right now. 1095 00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:18,520 Speaker 3: Maybe maybe, I mean it sounds like he's gonna go 1096 00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:20,440 Speaker 3: in the dunk contest. But Trey Murphy the third and 1097 00:53:20,560 --> 00:53:24,200 Speaker 3: also do both David tried it before. When I'm telling me, 1098 00:53:25,160 --> 00:53:26,759 Speaker 3: win both of them on the same weekend, give it 1099 00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:28,440 Speaker 3: a go at the very least. Okay, anyway, it. 1100 00:53:28,440 --> 00:53:32,040 Speaker 2: Has a whisper, a whispered a wizard. Has a wizard 1101 00:53:32,160 --> 00:53:35,040 Speaker 2: been announced for any event yet? Period? Like, they don't 1102 00:53:35,040 --> 00:53:37,080 Speaker 2: have an all Star? I know. I don't think they 1103 00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:38,640 Speaker 2: don't have a rising star, do they? 1104 00:53:38,800 --> 00:53:39,360 Speaker 4: They don't. 1105 00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:45,680 Speaker 2: Johnny Davis, uh No, I think I think that's probably 1106 00:53:45,680 --> 00:53:46,440 Speaker 2: a good guess. 1107 00:53:46,640 --> 00:53:47,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, real Tim. 1108 00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:51,600 Speaker 2: Legler style show up in a wival ony. 1109 00:53:53,680 --> 00:53:57,160 Speaker 3: Okay, uh my winner of the weekend, I'm gonna give 1110 00:53:57,160 --> 00:53:59,480 Speaker 3: it to the Pelicans for a couple of reasons. They 1111 00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:03,000 Speaker 3: snapped their ten game losing streak with two wins over 1112 00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:06,360 Speaker 3: the weekend. On Saturday, Brandon Ingram he played his best 1113 00:54:06,360 --> 00:54:09,920 Speaker 3: ball since returning from that nearly two month injury. He's 1114 00:54:09,960 --> 00:54:11,359 Speaker 3: been back for a little bit here, but he scored 1115 00:54:11,400 --> 00:54:14,279 Speaker 3: thirty five points in a win over the Lakers, Trey 1116 00:54:14,360 --> 00:54:18,319 Speaker 3: Murphy the Third hit a couple clutch three pointers late. Yeah, 1117 00:54:18,320 --> 00:54:20,920 Speaker 3: back to back three is late, so they snapped that streak. 1118 00:54:20,960 --> 00:54:23,720 Speaker 3: Good for them, and then he stayed hot, Trey Murphy 1119 00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:25,560 Speaker 3: the Third did. On Sunday. He scored a season high 1120 00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:29,120 Speaker 3: thirty points as the Pels put one hundred and thirty 1121 00:54:29,239 --> 00:54:34,239 Speaker 3: six on the Foxless Kings. Who is away from the 1122 00:54:34,280 --> 00:54:37,120 Speaker 3: team right now, Darren Fox for unspecified personal reasons. Hope 1123 00:54:37,120 --> 00:54:39,440 Speaker 3: everything's okay with him and his family. But yeah, New 1124 00:54:39,520 --> 00:54:41,799 Speaker 3: Orleans hit fourteen to twenty six from deep, a lot 1125 00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:43,400 Speaker 3: of those from Trey Murphrey, Like I said, he hit 1126 00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:45,640 Speaker 3: six of them. I believe they had no Zion, no 1127 00:54:45,840 --> 00:54:48,720 Speaker 3: Ingram because of the back to back situation, no JV 1128 00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:52,359 Speaker 3: who left Saturday's game with a sore right quadricep. So 1129 00:54:53,040 --> 00:54:55,960 Speaker 3: they still dominated this game. One hundred and thirty six 1130 00:54:56,000 --> 00:54:58,200 Speaker 3: points on the King So the Pells are now back 1131 00:54:58,239 --> 00:55:02,520 Speaker 3: above five hundred twenty seven. They're currently in ninth place. 1132 00:55:02,520 --> 00:55:05,520 Speaker 3: They're basically tied with the Warriors, who just lost Curry. 1133 00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:08,000 Speaker 3: So maybe that's sort of like another like winner of 1134 00:55:08,040 --> 00:55:10,040 Speaker 3: the weekend, sort of nod to the Pelicans. Because the 1135 00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:12,640 Speaker 3: Warriors lose Curry. But you already slipped it in there, Trey, 1136 00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:15,239 Speaker 3: I was gonna put it here. The Pelicans are two 1137 00:55:15,280 --> 00:55:18,319 Speaker 3: and a half games out of the third seed in 1138 00:55:18,360 --> 00:55:20,560 Speaker 3: the Western Conference, but they're also two and a half 1139 00:55:20,719 --> 00:55:24,440 Speaker 3: up on being the third worst team in the Western Conference. 1140 00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:27,600 Speaker 3: That's where the Warriors and Pelicans sit right now, two 1141 00:55:27,600 --> 00:55:30,160 Speaker 3: and a half games from being the third best or 1142 00:55:30,200 --> 00:55:33,120 Speaker 3: the third worst in your conference. That is nuts at 1143 00:55:33,120 --> 00:55:35,200 Speaker 3: this point. I mean, we are over fifty games in 1144 00:55:35,640 --> 00:55:37,160 Speaker 3: fifty five for a lot of these teams. 1145 00:55:37,600 --> 00:55:40,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's and it's also weird to think, like there 1146 00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:43,200 Speaker 2: was a time when the Pelicans were first in the 1147 00:55:43,200 --> 00:55:45,719 Speaker 2: Western Conference and we're thinking, wow, they might finish first 1148 00:55:45,719 --> 00:55:47,560 Speaker 2: in the Western Conference and get the number one draft 1149 00:55:47,600 --> 00:55:50,960 Speaker 2: pick from the Lakers with this pickswap. It could end 1150 00:55:51,040 --> 00:55:52,239 Speaker 2: up that the Lakers don't even want to do a 1151 00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:54,960 Speaker 2: pickswap if things go poorly for New Orleans, right, and 1152 00:55:55,080 --> 00:55:57,160 Speaker 2: the Lakers could finish with a better record because they're 1153 00:55:57,160 --> 00:56:00,120 Speaker 2: also jammed up. Yea, but yeah, getting a cup of 1154 00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:02,960 Speaker 2: wins here after a ten game losing streak like this 1155 00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:06,200 Speaker 2: is a gift, quite honestly, to pull off both of those. 1156 00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:09,600 Speaker 2: Surely some of it was personnel related, but you'll take 1157 00:56:09,640 --> 00:56:12,360 Speaker 2: it right now because they are pretty decimated by injuries 1158 00:56:12,400 --> 00:56:15,279 Speaker 2: and getting thirty from a Trey Murphy. The third is like, 1159 00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:17,480 Speaker 2: thank you so much. Somebody doing something out there. 1160 00:56:17,560 --> 00:56:19,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, any thoughts on the pells here are getting so 1161 00:56:19,800 --> 00:56:20,560 Speaker 3: much needed wins? 1162 00:56:20,600 --> 00:56:23,279 Speaker 4: Well, you guys are the King's whispers? Is it just 1163 00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:25,200 Speaker 4: personnel that they got blasted by thirty? 1164 00:56:25,280 --> 00:56:25,400 Speaker 2: Is it? 1165 00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:27,200 Speaker 4: Okay, it's just one of those games. 1166 00:56:27,520 --> 00:56:30,839 Speaker 2: It's just one of those games. Oh wow, they lost 1167 00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:33,560 Speaker 2: to the Ponikers though, too. They've lost four or five. 1168 00:56:34,440 --> 00:56:37,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, they're they're in a job a little slump right now. 1169 00:56:37,480 --> 00:56:40,200 Speaker 3: Twenty nine three overall. Again, I don't know what the 1170 00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:42,000 Speaker 3: fox Steel is here. This sort of sucks that he's 1171 00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:42,399 Speaker 3: not there. 1172 00:56:43,160 --> 00:56:46,080 Speaker 4: They got they got a couple Rockets games coming up, 1173 00:56:46,080 --> 00:56:49,120 Speaker 4: which which can heal all the wounds though. Two games 1174 00:56:49,120 --> 00:56:51,520 Speaker 4: against the rock They had two game baseball set oh 1175 00:56:51,560 --> 00:56:52,160 Speaker 4: in Houston. 1176 00:56:52,239 --> 00:56:55,200 Speaker 3: Okay, well, you know these teams are scrappy. Still, nothing's 1177 00:56:55,280 --> 00:56:58,279 Speaker 3: given on this league. I agree, you would almost guarantee 1178 00:56:58,280 --> 00:57:00,600 Speaker 3: one win there, but you want to both if you're 1179 00:57:01,160 --> 00:57:03,799 Speaker 3: if you're the Kings. Okay, let's hear from you guys, 1180 00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:07,040 Speaker 3: winners and losers from the NBA weekend. We left a 1181 00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:09,160 Speaker 3: lot of meat on the bone, So you tell us 1182 00:57:09,960 --> 00:57:12,319 Speaker 3: who you wish we would have talked about. What will 1183 00:57:12,320 --> 00:57:15,120 Speaker 3: it change? Nothing. It's not like we're gonna come back 1184 00:57:15,160 --> 00:57:17,520 Speaker 3: tomorrow and say, hey, we missed this one. I missed 1185 00:57:17,560 --> 00:57:19,200 Speaker 3: that one, but hey, it might make you feel better, 1186 00:57:19,360 --> 00:57:20,960 Speaker 3: I think, And we do read the comments, so. 1187 00:57:21,040 --> 00:57:23,720 Speaker 2: We do, and I've been reading them here on the 1188 00:57:23,760 --> 00:57:26,280 Speaker 2: stream team. I think the only thing, literally, the only 1189 00:57:26,320 --> 00:57:28,840 Speaker 2: thing we haven't mentioned. Cam Thomas had a forty four 1190 00:57:28,880 --> 00:57:32,880 Speaker 2: point night, good point winner game. Good game, Cam cam. 1191 00:57:32,760 --> 00:57:35,080 Speaker 3: Thomas, a guy who that I believe I had in 1192 00:57:35,160 --> 00:57:39,040 Speaker 3: that hypothetical or s I did the Nets the Lakers 1193 00:57:39,080 --> 00:57:41,800 Speaker 3: the Hornets trade. Cam Thomas would have been going to 1194 00:57:41,880 --> 00:57:46,919 Speaker 3: Charlotte there in that big hypothetical from SI. Anyway, good 1195 00:57:46,960 --> 00:57:49,120 Speaker 3: game for him. He smiled a little bit at the 1196 00:57:49,200 --> 00:57:49,560 Speaker 3: end too. 1197 00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:53,400 Speaker 2: What was funny interesting just getting buckets. 1198 00:57:54,520 --> 00:57:57,479 Speaker 4: The people have also spoken about the better team right 1199 00:57:57,520 --> 00:57:58,680 Speaker 4: now between the MAVs and. 1200 00:57:58,840 --> 00:58:00,520 Speaker 3: Did we have a poll going? We pulled it. 1201 00:58:00,560 --> 00:58:01,200 Speaker 4: Trey pulled it. 1202 00:58:01,280 --> 00:58:03,360 Speaker 3: Okay, nearly I haven't looked at it. 1203 00:58:03,920 --> 00:58:05,800 Speaker 4: Nearly a thousand votes, I think people are. 1204 00:58:05,680 --> 00:58:07,600 Speaker 3: Gonna agree with Skeezee on this one more than you, guys. 1205 00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:11,560 Speaker 2: Mhm, thirty six percent of people agree with you. 1206 00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:16,160 Speaker 3: Oh, that's because Katie's not playing right now. 1207 00:58:16,680 --> 00:58:21,200 Speaker 2: The mass say forgot the guy was an MVP. Basically, yep, 1208 00:58:21,280 --> 00:58:21,959 Speaker 2: he's gotta play. 1209 00:58:23,680 --> 00:58:27,800 Speaker 3: Availability is the best ability is it? We'll be back 1210 00:58:27,840 --> 00:58:31,000 Speaker 3: soon hopefully. All right, let's get to pick them results 1211 00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:34,880 Speaker 3: from Friday night. It was a King's Pacers game. King's 1212 00:58:34,920 --> 00:58:38,520 Speaker 3: were favorite on the road in Indiana. There in the Fieldhouse, 1213 00:58:39,240 --> 00:58:42,080 Speaker 3: Pacers straight up one. So that's a win for tasks, 1214 00:58:42,200 --> 00:58:44,920 Speaker 3: first win there in the month of February. I took 1215 00:58:44,960 --> 00:58:47,440 Speaker 3: an L Trede took an L Trace two and one. 1216 00:58:47,440 --> 00:58:48,800 Speaker 3: We're one and two. What's tonight's game? 1217 00:58:49,680 --> 00:58:52,800 Speaker 4: Well, I'll just go back to the trade demand from 1218 00:58:52,880 --> 00:58:55,320 Speaker 4: Kyrie Irving. When he made the trade demand, their coach, 1219 00:58:55,440 --> 00:58:57,439 Speaker 4: Jock Vaughn said, what are we gonna do. We're gonna 1220 00:58:57,440 --> 00:59:00,360 Speaker 4: show up.

As we watch the Brooklyn 1224 00:59:08,320 --> 00:59:13,200 Speaker 4: Nets at home, to the Clippers, and because the Nets 1225 00:59:13,240 --> 00:59:16,919 Speaker 4: are so shorthanded, they are getting six and a half points, 1226 00:59:16,920 --> 00:59:20,160 Speaker 4: They're six and a half point dogs at homes gets. 1227 00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:22,400 Speaker 4: You think they can cover that well, Trey, And I 1228 00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:25,640 Speaker 4: think that the clip will cover seven. I do for more? 1229 00:59:25,680 --> 00:59:27,440 Speaker 3: What do you call these type of games, Trey? When 1230 00:59:27,440 --> 00:59:28,480 Speaker 3: a team's missing. 1231 00:59:28,240 --> 00:59:30,640 Speaker 2: A bunch of guys, guys being dudes. 1232 00:59:30,520 --> 00:59:33,720 Speaker 3: Guys being dudes, watch out for the Nets and those 1233 00:59:33,760 --> 00:59:37,240 Speaker 3: guys being dudes tonight and putting up a valiant fight 1234 00:59:38,320 --> 00:59:41,080 Speaker 3: against the Clippers and losing by four. 1235 00:59:41,920 --> 00:59:42,360 Speaker 2: I like that. 1236 00:59:42,440 --> 00:59:44,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's why I'm taking them.

You know, Kawhi and 1242 01:00:01,080 --> 01:00:03,800 Speaker 2: Paul George both played against the Knicks over the weekend, 1243 01:00:04,320 --> 01:00:06,880 Speaker 2: so I'm assuming they'll probably both play in this game. 1244 01:00:06,880 --> 01:00:08,920 Speaker 2: Who are your top three candidates for Dude of the 1245 01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:10,680 Speaker 2: Night for the Brooklyn Nets. 1246 01:00:10,960 --> 01:00:13,680 Speaker 3: Well, Cam Thomas will still be mixed high dude potential, 1247 01:00:13,800 --> 01:00:15,160 Speaker 3: give me a watanabe. 1248 01:00:15,480 --> 01:00:21,720 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, and who's really my third dude star tonight? 1249 01:00:21,880 --> 01:00:24,120 Speaker 3: Well, I'll go Claxton.

It comes from 1268 01:01:15,160 --> 01:01:20,160 Speaker 4: the Ringers, Kevin O'Connor Spurs rookie Jeremy Sohan is shooting 1269 01:01:20,480 --> 01:01:24,400 Speaker 4: seventy five percent from the line since changing his form 1270 01:01:24,800 --> 01:01:27,240 Speaker 4: to a one handed motion on December nineteenth, and we 1271 01:01:27,280 --> 01:01:29,800 Speaker 4: showed it to you December twenty third. We show you 1272 01:01:30,240 --> 01:01:33,760 Speaker 4: his wild shooting form and our best of the Week segment. 1273 01:01:33,840 --> 01:01:36,200 Speaker 4: This rook in front of the world has changed it. 1274 01:01:36,200 --> 01:01:39,560 Speaker 4: It is nuts. He gets to the line, pulls that 1275 01:01:39,680 --> 01:01:43,960 Speaker 4: left hand far away. The ball is corralled first, you know, 1276 01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:47,400 Speaker 4: with his wrist towards him, like he's the server that's 1277 01:01:47,440 --> 01:01:49,600 Speaker 4: going to be serving us pizza in Salt Lake City 1278 01:01:49,600 --> 01:01:52,160 Speaker 4: when we go to All Star weekend. Okay, and then 1279 01:01:52,280 --> 01:01:54,880 Speaker 4: he turns it around like the left hand is nowhere 1280 01:01:55,360 --> 01:01:58,200 Speaker 4: near the ball. It's pretty cool. He just it's good, 1281 01:01:58,320 --> 01:02:01,080 Speaker 4: big enough hand to do it. Yeah, yeah, easy, and 1282 01:02:01,520 --> 01:02:02,680 Speaker 4: he follows through. 1283 01:02:02,600 --> 01:02:06,120 Speaker 3: Gets good arc on it, really good artill on this one. 1284 01:02:06,160 --> 01:02:10,080 Speaker 4: It's why release handed. And he was shooting forty percent 1285 01:02:10,160 --> 01:02:12,880 Speaker 4: from the line when we talked about it December twenty third, 1286 01:02:13,440 --> 01:02:17,800 Speaker 4: and again, as Kevin O'Connor said, seventy five percent. Since then, 1287 01:02:17,840 --> 01:02:19,880 Speaker 4: it's actually even gone up a few percentage points. He 1288 01:02:19,880 --> 01:02:24,840 Speaker 4: had a five by five night on the weekend. Pretty cool. 1289 01:02:24,920 --> 01:02:28,800 Speaker 3: Respect Yeah, honestly, it's pretty cool. Most I mean any 1290 01:02:28,920 --> 01:02:32,400 Speaker 3: NBA player, let alone a kid, a teenager exactly to 1291 01:02:32,440 --> 01:02:34,480 Speaker 3: be like, dude, you suck at free throws. Try something else. 1292 01:02:34,880 --> 01:02:36,720 Speaker 3: A lot of them be like, no, I don't want 1293 01:02:36,760 --> 01:02:38,840 Speaker 3: to do I'm too cool for school, I don't want to whatever. 1294 01:02:39,040 --> 01:02:42,960 Speaker 3: Shoot underhand or something like that, you know, change hands 1295 01:02:42,960 --> 01:02:44,640 Speaker 3: for him to try this, for them spurs to like, 1296 01:02:44,640 --> 01:02:46,480 Speaker 3: you got to give it a go whatever, I don't know, whatever, 1297 01:02:46,560 --> 01:02:49,240 Speaker 3: whatever metrics they showed him and practice I don't know, 1298 01:02:49,320 --> 01:02:51,760 Speaker 3: but he'd like why not At that point, it's literally 1299 01:02:51,800 --> 01:02:54,960 Speaker 3: like why not? It can't really get much worse? Uh, 1300 01:02:55,320 --> 01:02:58,360 Speaker 3: And he's seeing some success. 1301 01:02:58,000 --> 01:02:59,880 Speaker 4: With us any cool, and he's shooting better from three 1302 01:03:00,080 --> 01:03:03,640 Speaker 4: as well, a respectable sort of league average number, which 1303 01:03:03,680 --> 01:03:07,080 Speaker 4: is high for him. So yeah, the shooting form is great. 1304 01:03:07,360 --> 01:03:09,760 Speaker 2: I wonder if I'll ever add the guide hand back 1305 01:03:10,040 --> 01:03:11,920 Speaker 2: or if the spurs are just like that thing is cursed, man, 1306 01:03:11,920 --> 01:03:13,800 Speaker 2: don't let it touch the ball at all. You gotta 1307 01:03:13,840 --> 01:03:16,120 Speaker 2: shoot it one handed only, because I mean, it looks 1308 01:03:16,200 --> 01:03:19,280 Speaker 2: nice now, the release looks perfect with the right hand, 1309 01:03:19,360 --> 01:03:22,120 Speaker 2: but who knows. I guess it's becoming a thing. First 1310 01:03:22,120 --> 01:03:25,720 Speaker 2: Tristan Thompson, then Mason Plumbley, now Jeremy So.
