Speaker 7: was an official Rudy Gobert roast.

41
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,720

Speaker 4: Uh, that's Dragonfly Jones, that's the Jethro Jenkins. I'm Guardy

44
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 4: b reproduced as always by Jackson. But let's just jump

45
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 4: into it. I want to start with the game, and

46
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 4: the game is this. Who hates Rudy Gobert the most

47
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 4: of the four of us?

48
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 5: I don't.

49
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 3: I don't know if I necessarily hate the guy.

50
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:33,800
Speaker 8: I don't feel like the word I do.

51
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:35,520
Speaker 5: Hate.

52
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 6: It's okay to hate because I hate this life. We

53
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:40,359
Speaker 6: can hate them.

54
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 1: Guys, But yeah, I mean, I'm not someone who I'm

55
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:43,119
Speaker 1: above hating people.

56
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:44,239
Speaker 3: I just don't hate Rudy.

57
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 1: I do think that the fraud allegations have some merit

58
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 1: to them.

59
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:48,919
Speaker 3: Let's let's put it that way.

60
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:49,919
Speaker 8: Here's what I would say.

61
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 7: What we've learned in the last few weeks in the

62
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 7: discourse is that if you're gonna say you hate someone,

63
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 7: you better be ready to fucking hate them with your

64
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 7: whole chest, and you better be ready to release like

65
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 7: seven different songs over the course of three weeks about

66
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 7: how much you hate them. And I'm just not ready

67
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,679
Speaker 7: to sit in front of the congregation today and say

68
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 7: that I hate capital h hate Rudy Gobert, ily dislike him. Yes,

69
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 7: do I think that he is not deserving of all

70
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:15,119
Speaker 7: of his deepoys?

71
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 8: Also, yes, do.

72
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 1: You Okay, that's a bigger indictment on him than actually

73
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 1: hating him. Like, bro, I'm you don't you know, you

74
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 1: don't strike anything in me enough to hate you, you

75
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,360
Speaker 1: know what I mean. You're just there and you're just

76
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 1: kind of annoying and you know you're kind of frustrating it.

77
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 1: But you don't strike any any deep emotion at me.

78
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 1: Like That's how I feel about Rude.

79
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 7: It's like the Don Draper meme, like the like I

80
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:37,920
Speaker 7: feel sorry for you, Like I don't think about you

81
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 7: at all.

82
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 3: Exactly that.

83
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 4: Rudy Gobert seventy two first place votes. Defensive Player of

84
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 4: the Year, Victor webbin Yama nineteen first place votes, Bam three,

85
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 4: Anthony Davis four, Rudy go Bear seventy two first place

86
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 4: Deep is it me? Or was clearly trying to drink

87
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 4: his bone marrow on national TV.

88
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 7: To trying actively drinking. Yeah, in the mug, Rudy Gobar

89
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,919
Speaker 7: bone broth in this bitch. He was like, this is

90
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 7: my lunch.

91
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was crazy, But I gonna say we do

92
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: have to kind of shield Go Bear something that's playing

93
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:30,039
Speaker 1: the world.

94
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,800
Speaker 6: No, we don't. We've seen him get cooked in playoffs.

95
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 6: Before every playoff he gets exposed.

96
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 9: And I don't really hate him either, Like I don't,

97
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,680
Speaker 9: there's very it's it's really hard for me to hate

98
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 9: anybody in this world. But like, I don't need a

99
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,559
Speaker 9: person that can't play basketball, who's in the NBA before

100
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,480
Speaker 9: because of their height, to get rewarded for that.

101
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:52,280
Speaker 8: That's a little far.

102
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:54,720
Speaker 7: I don't think I would say he can't play basketball,

103
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 7: like that's a step far even for me.

104
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 8: Someone who's like an avowed.

105
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 4: Rudy got he can't play at all, Like we're in

106
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 4: the group chat.

107
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 5: Like you're you're even.

108
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 4: And he was efficient because he knows enough to not

109
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 4: like to not run off his from but he has

110
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 4: turnovers where he like he's got a six foot five

111
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,119
Speaker 4: defender on him and he brings the ball down below

112
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:20,600
Speaker 4: his waist, where you're like, this is like first year shiit.

113
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 7: Like eleven tonight. I mean he was. I don't take

114
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:30,280
Speaker 7: any second leading scorer on the timber. I'm just like he.

115
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,920
Speaker 8: I think he There's two things that are true to me.

116
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,280
Speaker 7: One, I don't think anybody in the world can stop

117
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 7: Nikolijokic when he wants to win a basketball game, when

118
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 7: he's like put all of his force and energy into

119
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 7: winning a basketball game, I think he's literally unbeatable. Right now,

120
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 7: I think they're going to repeat spoiler alert. But I

121
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 7: also think that Rudy Gobert would not be my choice

122
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 7: to guard him, Like he wouldn't even be you know,

123
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:54,599
Speaker 7: top five probably choices.

124
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 8: So those are.

125
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,160
Speaker 1: Both I mean, but you know, I person like eighty

126
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 1: is the best defended league and hell, he once against

127
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 1: a D two, Like you know what I mean, The

128
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:04,600
Speaker 1: dude is inevitable. He's unstoppable, And like I said, I

129
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:06,480
Speaker 1: feel like we have to shoot Gobert a little bit

130
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 1: of bail here because I think that you can't stop Yokis.

131
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,040
Speaker 1: You can only hope to slow him down, right, And

132
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,360
Speaker 1: Gobert has not been slowing Yokis down this series at all,

133
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,040
Speaker 1: Like you know, I mean, I think that's a valid

134
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 1: criticism here.

135
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:19,280
Speaker 6: But we've seen him.

136
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 2: Win Defensive Player of the Year and get cooked by

137
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:25,240
Speaker 2: not the MVP like every playoffs. It seems like he's

138
00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:28,160
Speaker 2: proven to be the weak link on the defensive end,

139
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:30,479
Speaker 2: and we've seen like we're talking about, gets part of

140
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 2: you know, pick and rolls and it'll be on an

141
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,280
Speaker 2: island with the guard and that's hard for a seven

142
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 2: foot guy, right. But we're seeing him get his you know,

143
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 2: get cooked at his home where he's supposed to be

144
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 2: the most effective, get fucking smacked, you know what I mean.

145
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 6: And I don't even I don't expect you to stop.

146
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, The MVP, the best player

147
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:49,920
Speaker 2: in the world, I don't expect that.

148
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 6: But slow down. Somewhat he looked like food. They were

149
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,599
Speaker 6: making fun of fun of him, you know.

150
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:57,920
Speaker 4: On bro.

151
00:06:58,040 --> 00:06:59,480
Speaker 6: He was like, dude, like.

152
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:01,840
Speaker 2: That's not it, And that's what I'm saying, Like, bro,

153
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 2: like for any player to lick their lips when they

154
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 2: see you in the paint, you're how are you the

155
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,240
Speaker 2: defensive player to year facts?

156
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. And

157
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 6: then like they can get eight to eleven to night.

158
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:15,600
Speaker 2: But like we see him on the offensive end, the

159
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 2: dude is like, has no feel for the game. If

160
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 2: he was not seven, he needs every fucking inch to

161
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 2: be to be a basketball player.

162
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 6: If he was fucking six to eleven, he wouldn't be

163
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 6: in the NBA. He'd be overseas, Like I.

164
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 7: Think the biggest indictment on Rudy is like he's consistently

165
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 7: ranked in those player strap poles as the number one

166
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 7: most overrated player in the NBA, like year over year,

167
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 7: it just keeps happening. And I'm like, if anybody knows basketball,

168
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 7: it's NBA players, Like they know who.

169
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 8: They respect them.

170
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 5: They all feel that way, and.

171
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 7: They all feel that way like unanimously, And it's not

172
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,720
Speaker 7: just I don't think it's xenophobia. I genuinely think that

173
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 7: these guys are like, you can't touch me, Like I

174
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:56,760
Speaker 7: don't know if anybody in the league is scared of

175
00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 7: Rudy Gobert.

176
00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 5: No with you.

177
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 4: And I think the issue with it is like you

178
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 4: guys mentioned like we've seen him get cooked by wings

179
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 4: where they're looking for the switch and they know he

180
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 4: can't play out to the perimeter. But then we've also

181
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 4: seen that like a lot of the best centers in

182
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,560
Speaker 4: the league play better when they play against him. So

183
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 4: what is the specialty is help side blocks because of

184
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 4: the wingspan?

185
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 5: You know what I mean?

186
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 4: Like, I just don't understand. And again you talk about

187
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 4: Wemby had like double every stat that he had I

188
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 4: know the Spurs suck, but like.

189
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 5: What would they what would they have done worse against

190
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 5: the I think.

191
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,320
Speaker 7: Rudy is an exemplary regular season player. I think that

192
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 7: you can't really deny that in the regular season he

193
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 7: elevates his team's defense. He does you know, get his numbers,

194
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 7: get his stats, what have you. On the defensive end,

195
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 7: I have yet to see a year where Rudy Gobert

196
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 7: puts any kind of fear in anyone past April period.

197
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,680
Speaker 7: And if you're if I'm gonna respect somebody on like

198
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 7: a you've won Defensive Player of the Year, you know,

199
00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 7: among the highest echelon of players who have won that

200
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 7: number of that, or you have to scare me April

201
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 7: and beyond period. Like at a certain point, the jig

202
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 7: is up, you know what I'm saying.

203
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:13,680
Speaker 1: Like, I think the voters have made it very clear

204
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 1: that they are just going to consider, as in Rudy's case,

205
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 1: for whatever reason, They're just going to consider defensive player

206
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 1: the year regular season awar. I mean, we saw that

207
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 1: man get cooked by fucking Reggie Jackson and Terrence man

208
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 1: Bro and he's won like two Defensive Player of the

209
00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:28,439
Speaker 1: Year since then. You know what, I'm saying, we saw

210
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 1: the Jazz get their season ended by those two dudes

211
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 1: playing tech and tag on that guy just hunting for

212
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,679
Speaker 1: the switch, and he still has one Defensive Player of

213
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,080
Speaker 1: the Awards at that So I think people are voters

214
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 1: are for sure just like Bro, we're just going to

215
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:40,960
Speaker 1: keep it a regular season, a war. Where do you

216
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 1: think there's merit to that? You know, that's a whole

217
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 1: other discussion, but I mean, it's it's it is a

218
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,680
Speaker 1: very odd thing about how he just goes into the

219
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 1: postseason and he looks like food And like you said, Claire,

220
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,560
Speaker 1: he for sure elevates defenses during the regular season, but

221
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 1: it does not seem to translate in the postseason.

222
00:09:57,760 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 7: But justice for Anthony Davis because if we're talking about

223
00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 7: the regular season, like to me, nobody has and I've

224
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:06,880
Speaker 7: talked about this ad nauseum, so like, forgive me for

225
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 7: going off, but like, nobody has a heavier defensive and

226
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 7: offensive load on any given team every single night than

227
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 7: Anthony Davis. And because you know, we're judging people on

228
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 7: like Minnesotaver's the number one defense Lakers or you know,

229
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 7: bottom of the league and defense for the second half

230
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 7: of the year, like the rest of the team is

231
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:28,559
Speaker 7: kind of dragging him down in that sense. But like

232
00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:30,959
Speaker 7: if you ask, like you know an NBA player, like

233
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 7: who they'd rather get into the post against Rudy Gobert

234
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 7: or Anthony Davis, Like, I don't think it's even an argument.

235
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:41,679
Speaker 4: That's a ninety five percent Go Bear. I feel like, right,

236
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:45,400
Speaker 4: I mean, that's it. Like, do y'all get the sense

237
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 4: because it feels a little. It feels a little like

238
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 4: jo Kids takes something about it personally. I don't know

239
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 4: if it's that he does not like Rudy Gobert personally.

240
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 4: I don't know if it's the because he's got the DPOY,

241
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,319
Speaker 4: it's just how he's psyching himself up. But it looked

242
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:06,559
Speaker 4: like he enjoys cooking Gobert more than he enjoys getting

243
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:09,439
Speaker 4: a drop step around Nasriy, Like do you feel that?

244
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 4: Like it looks to me like he's really having fun

245
00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:13,439
Speaker 4: picking apart Rudy Gobert.

246
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:14,840
Speaker 3: On national team. I mean, I feel like we have

247
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:15,439
Speaker 3: it on record.

248
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,679
Speaker 1: There is footage of Jamal Murray telling that story when

249
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,040
Speaker 1: when when Yok was cooking Go Beart and Go Bear

250
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 1: got a bucket of talk shit and Nicholas said, my friend,

251
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 1: I have forty seven, right, Like, I I think he

252
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 1: I don't need you know, we talk about how we

253
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:34,599
Speaker 1: can't necessarily hate Rudy. I don't see Nikola as a

254
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:36,959
Speaker 1: dude who hates anyone, right, Like he's you do need

255
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:37,600
Speaker 1: to kill guy?

256
00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 8: He cares enough.

257
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, exactly.

258
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 1: He's a very easy but I think he for sure,

259
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:43,959
Speaker 1: you know, has a you know, get a load of

260
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 1: this fucking guy when he goes up against.

261
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 7: Rudy, and accurate, it's the get aload of this fucking guy.

262
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:50,520
Speaker 7: It's not I hate you, it's like, can you believe

263
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 7: this guy I thinks he can guard me?

264
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 8: Like I roll, yeah, yeah.

265
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 7: I don't know if it's that he hates him or

266
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 7: like enjoys going up against him, or like has a

267
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,719
Speaker 7: personal vendetta as much as he's just like path of

268
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 7: least resistance, Like this guy can't stop me.

269
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:06,640
Speaker 8: Guy can't stop me. I'm gonna go out him every time.

270
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 4: Right that being said, let's talk about Jokic did something

271
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 4: tonight forty points I think it was was a forty

272
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 4: points tennis zero turnovers. Chris Paul is the only other

273
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 4: player to have done that in the playoffs, and he

274
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 4: did it one time at the Cup tonight too, and

275
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:27,840
Speaker 4: I thought we've seen some incredible games from Yokich. I

276
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 4: thought this was right up there as, if not the best,

277
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 4: among the very best, because you just felt the walk

278
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,240
Speaker 4: down in the third quarter like a four hundred meter

279
00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:37,959
Speaker 4: race of like, Nope.

280
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:38,760
Speaker 5: We're gonna run it through me.

281
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 4: Every possession, I'm gonna score or it's gonna be a

282
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 4: layup or dunk open for a teammate every possession.

283
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 5: What can we say about this dude that we that

284
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 5: we haven't said, Claire.

285
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:53,600
Speaker 7: I mean, I'm looking at his box score right now,

286
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:57,080
Speaker 7: like fifteen for twenty two, sixty eight percent from the field.

287
00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 7: I think it's the efficiency too, It's like the ease

288
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 7: with which he's doing it. I mean, we've seen guys

289
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:04,800
Speaker 7: get it out the mud. We've seen Anthony Edwards get

290
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 7: it out the mud in this series, and he looked

291
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,080
Speaker 7: like a superhero, but he also looked like he was

292
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 7: exerting every ounce of energy and willpower that he possibly

293
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 7: had to do that like, and it like a Nikola

294
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:17,920
Speaker 7: Jokic forty point game looks so different than a forty

295
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:21,000
Speaker 7: point game from really anybody else in the league. He

296
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:23,199
Speaker 7: just makes it look so easy. He makes it look

297
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:25,560
Speaker 7: so effortless. It's like another day hitt the office, you know,

298
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:29,480
Speaker 7: and he you can watch. It's so fascinating. It's like,

299
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 7: really it's like some beautiful mind shit. Like watching him

300
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 7: pick apart the game. You know, he's like it took him,

301
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 7: you know, a game or two. You know, took him

302
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 7: two games, I guess against these Timberwolves. Like I feel

303
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 7: like the first game it wasn't really him like picking

304
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:43,120
Speaker 7: them apart. It was more just like they didn't really

305
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,559
Speaker 7: come ready. I feel like the Nuggets phoned in the

306
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 7: first five games with their postseason, or I mean first

307
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,760
Speaker 7: six games of their postseason, and then game two, I

308
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 7: think that they got sucker punched. And then I think

309
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:56,240
Speaker 7: Joki is smart enough to be like, Okay, I know

310
00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:57,719
Speaker 7: we're not going to win this one because we got

311
00:13:57,720 --> 00:13:59,679
Speaker 7: punched in the face. So let me like observe, let

312
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 7: me learn, and let me like upload this to my

313
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 7: supercomputer brain for the rest of the series. But it's

314
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 7: been so fascinating to watch him just like figure out

315
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,320
Speaker 7: exactly what it is they do and just pick it

316
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 7: apart with such precision and efficacy, and to me, I was.

317
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 7: I compared him, I think in a tweet to like

318
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,880
Speaker 7: watching a lion and a hunt. It's like he's so

319
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 7: calm and collected and he's just watching his prey and

320
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:24,800
Speaker 7: like watching like how they want to move and what

321
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,320
Speaker 7: they want to do, and then he just pounces, like

322
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 7: when you just when you think you're comfy, when you

323
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 7: think you're up to zero, you know, like I doubted

324
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:34,680
Speaker 7: Denver in this series. The dumbest fucking call I've ever

325
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 7: made in my life. I thought Minnesota was gonna win

326
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:38,120
Speaker 7: the series after going up to nothing.

327
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 6: But I mean, I think he's world. Did you feel me? Like, yeah, yeah,

328
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:47,400
Speaker 6: we're all dumb, for sure, We're all dumb.

329
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 8: Like why do we ever doubt this guy?

330
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 7: This is one of the I think he's going to

331
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 7: go down as you know, one of the greatest to

332
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 7: ever play the game. And like it's to me, it's

333
00:14:55,720 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 7: the like the watching his mind work is so fast

334
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:03,680
Speaker 7: to me because he's really sort of just like hacked

335
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 7: into the mainframe of basketball in a way that's really

336
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 7: fascinating to watch.

337
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:10,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, incredible basketball mine.

338
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 1: And going back to like what you said, like the

339
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:15,080
Speaker 1: first seven games of this postseason for the Nuggets.

340
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 3: It was like, hey, they look pretty vulnerable.

341
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 1: I don't know, man, but you know, after seeing the

342
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 1: performance last two games, Bro, they weren't vulnerable.

343
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 3: They were just bored.

344
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 1: Now they're locked in, and now you know that back

345
00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:27,320
Speaker 1: to back is inevitable. It looks like to me, like

346
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be so wild to me because I

347
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 1: do think that they're going to end this and six.

348
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,080
Speaker 1: So Minnesota is going to start their postseason winn is

349
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 1: six straight and losing four straight to end it.

350
00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 3: That is wild, bro.

351
00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:40,040
Speaker 4: But and so I know Claire has roots in Minnesota,

352
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 4: so I wanted to bring that up because we mentioned

353
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 4: that Minnesota, the whole state is haunted in sports on

354
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 4: the last podcast, and my friend who's from Minnesota, texted me,

355
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 4: you put all the stats together. I didn't realize how

356
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 4: dramatic it was. In the last thirty three years, not

357
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:58,280
Speaker 4: one trip to the finals in any of the four

358
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 4: major sports, even though they have all four major sports,

359
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 4: not one trip to the finals.

360
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:05,880
Speaker 8: Except for the Links. Put some respect on the Links, yes, yes, but.

361
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,640
Speaker 4: Of the of the of this, of the curse sports,

362
00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 4: Like whenever people do that, I always say women's sports

363
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 4: aren't cursed, like.

364
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 8: The men are letting down the people of Minnesota one.

365
00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 5: Hundred one hundred percent.

366
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:18,640
Speaker 4: But like, and then on top of that, there the

367
00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 4: whole state is crazy about hockey, and their hockey team

368
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 4: moved to Texas and won a championship, which would be

369
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:26,960
Speaker 4: like a Texas football team winning the Idaho and winning

370
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:30,120
Speaker 4: a championship. It's like, that's like, you're Minnesota, You're the

371
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:31,360
Speaker 4: hockey team, you know what I mean.

372
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:33,720
Speaker 7: I mean, the Wild had definitely been I think the

373
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 7: most successful of all the like men's major sports there,

374
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:38,160
Speaker 7: so they still do have like a hockey team to

375
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 7: root for. But I mean, the Lord knows the Vikings,

376
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 7: the Twins, and the Timberwolves have historically not been had

377
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,560
Speaker 7: a stellar stellar record. I mean, like all you need,

378
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 7: the only fact you need to know about the Timberwolves

379
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 7: is that this is their first time getting to the

380
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 7: second round since Kevin Garnett was there. So I mean,

381
00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:56,640
Speaker 7: like that's abysmal as far as a track record goes.

382
00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:00,080
Speaker 7: My thing is, I do think, I you know, I

383
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 7: I think that Minnesota fans should be really proud of

384
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 7: this team. Still, I do agree with you that I

385
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 7: think Denver will take care of business. I think this

386
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,760
Speaker 7: is going to be over in six games personally, and

387
00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,959
Speaker 7: that's coming from someone who thought Minnesota was gonna win

388
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:16,640
Speaker 7: this series. But I think just seeing this version of Yokichen,

389
00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 7: the fact that Jamal Murray looks like pretty much back

390
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,560
Speaker 7: to himself now, I think is a game changer. But

391
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 7: they should still be really proud of, like having such

392
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:27,360
Speaker 7: an incredible regular season. Like Anthony Edwards is twenty two,

393
00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 7: I think he's one of the best leaders in sports,

394
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:33,960
Speaker 7: like in the NBA already, Like he galvanizes his team

395
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 7: unlike many other players in the league. So you have

396
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,800
Speaker 7: an incredible leader who like looks like the second coming

397
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:41,879
Speaker 7: of MJ on his best nights, and he's twenty two

398
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:45,879
Speaker 7: years old. You have you know, like I think you

399
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:47,919
Speaker 7: have space to move Kat this summer if that's what

400
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:49,960
Speaker 7: you're planning to do to get some more offense.

401
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 8: And yeah, the future is bright.

402
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:54,560
Speaker 7: So I don't think they should hang their heads, but

403
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,119
Speaker 7: I do think, like it does feel real Minnesota sports

404
00:17:57,400 --> 00:17:59,200
Speaker 7: to go up to nothing and then lose four games

405
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 7: in overall.

406
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,200
Speaker 4: Well, it's time for to win six straight and then

407
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 4: lose fourgner. I mean, it's just.

408
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:06,680
Speaker 8: It's Phoenix team. Can we be honest.

409
00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:10,239
Speaker 7: Can we be honest honest about Phoenix, Like they were

410
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 7: beating themselves a little bit like that was that was

411
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:15,320
Speaker 7: pretty That was hard to watch.

412
00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:17,280
Speaker 6: I thought they were slowing down Joker.

413
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 2: That's why we thought they could win, right because they

414
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:21,240
Speaker 2: were giving Joker trouble at this point.

415
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 6: Do you know what I'm saying? We had never seen

416
00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:24,000
Speaker 6: that before.

417
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 8: He was beating up Joker.

418
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 7: He shook, he looked panicked, and I've never seen him

419
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:33,600
Speaker 7: look panic before. But that's the thing about his his

420
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:37,719
Speaker 7: basketball brain is he's so even keeled. He can be like, oh,

421
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:39,280
Speaker 7: I got my ass whip and he's like, all right,

422
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:40,760
Speaker 7: how do I never do that again?

423
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:41,679
Speaker 5: You know?

424
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:43,960
Speaker 8: So I think that's to me.

425
00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:46,480
Speaker 7: I was like posting about this last night, like I

426
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 7: think the Denver Nuggets superpower and their Achilles Hill are

427
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:50,600
Speaker 7: one and the same, which is that they do not

428
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:54,680
Speaker 7: get rattled really and sometimes like getting rattled is sort

429
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:56,920
Speaker 7: of what the moment calls for, Like sometimes you really

430
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,240
Speaker 7: need somebody, you know, on that bench being like we're

431
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:01,880
Speaker 7: not going to fucking go out like this, like we're

432
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,360
Speaker 7: not gonna let Minnesota whoop our ass. And I don't

433
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 7: know if they really have somebody like that. However, that

434
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:11,239
Speaker 7: even keeledness and that innate calm is what enabled them

435
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 7: to go down two in that fashion and then come

436
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:16,680
Speaker 7: back and win three three straight games. They never got

437
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 7: they never lost sense of who they were. They never

438
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:22,199
Speaker 7: got fully like thrown off their axis. And that's I

439
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,399
Speaker 7: think a credit to Jokic. Like I think that's just

440
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:26,320
Speaker 7: the kind of guy he is, Like he's never gonna

441
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:28,800
Speaker 7: get too high or too low in any circumstance.

442
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,480
Speaker 2: I think Michael Lohane's coaching his ass off too, man,

443
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 2: you know what I mean? That double team has aunt frustrated.

444
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 2: His body language today, Yeah was. I mean, I don't

445
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:40,119
Speaker 2: know if I've seen Ant have that type of body

446
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,800
Speaker 2: language and the playoffs definitely not, you know what I mean?

447
00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:43,080
Speaker 6: He was.

448
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:47,120
Speaker 2: He was completely you know, frustrated. That double team hasn't frustrated.

449
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 2: But yeah, and then like Joker reminds me of Bron

450
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:53,120
Speaker 2: and how involved he is in everything. Yes, on the offense,

451
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,359
Speaker 2: Like you know what I'm saying, Like everything that was good,

452
00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 2: like during like the run they had when they like

453
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 2: stretched out, everything was going through Joker.

454
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:03,120
Speaker 6: The last time I've seen that was Lebron James. Yes,

455
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,159
Speaker 6: you feel.

456
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:08,120
Speaker 3: Reads from there everything goes through you.

457
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,720
Speaker 2: Feel me, and so like, i'ven't seen that since Lebron,

458
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:12,359
Speaker 2: So I mean he's I mean, it's just a special player.

459
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 6: And he looked incredible tonight.

460
00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:17,119
Speaker 2: But I mean, like I said, it's just weird seeing

461
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:20,199
Speaker 2: defensive Player of the Year look like, you know, like

462
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,680
Speaker 2: all again joking, you know what I mean.

463
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:28,600
Speaker 6: Rudy's on me again, you feel Yeah.

464
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,359
Speaker 5: That's like I tweet it right before we hopped on

465
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:29,800
Speaker 5: like that.

466
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 4: You know, Jokic is a native to America, so he's

467
00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 4: not up on all our customs. He didn't know we

468
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:36,399
Speaker 4: give barbecue chicken Defensive Player of the Year.

469
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:39,160
Speaker 5: Every year, Like that's he where he comes from.

470
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 4: Defensive Player of the Year probably goes to a guy

471
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:46,240
Speaker 4: who plays defense and intimidates you or makes you makes.

472
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:47,800
Speaker 6: It harder at least uncomfortable.

473
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 2: It would at least make you uncomfortable in some way,

474
00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 2: you feel me.

475
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:55,160
Speaker 4: Claire mentioned that the supercomputer on Jokich, and I love

476
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,960
Speaker 4: that because I do feel like he's he's like one

477
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 4: of the like comic book villains who like can see

478
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:03,200
Speaker 4: see you do something one time and just boo boop,

479
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:06,159
Speaker 4: like straight into the brain and there was a stretch

480
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:08,440
Speaker 4: in the third quarter. I think Reggie Miller actually caught

481
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,520
Speaker 4: it out where it almost felt intentional, like he was

482
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:15,200
Speaker 4: doing the dream shake and then he was doing the skyhook,

483
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:19,280
Speaker 4: and then he was getting a shack, you know, forty

484
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 4: foot long drop step around the bottom of nasria.

485
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 5: Like it he did.

486
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:27,159
Speaker 4: He went through such a succession of moves on consecutive possessions,

487
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:28,439
Speaker 4: and he did tonight.

488
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:30,040
Speaker 5: What I what to me is his.

489
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:33,320
Speaker 4: Signature offensive move, which is to get the fuck out

490
00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:36,159
Speaker 4: of here three pointer with point five seconds left of

491
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:37,359
Speaker 4: the shot, climbing the.

492
00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:39,680
Speaker 5: Soccer throw is throw shot?

493
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:40,520
Speaker 6: Isn't that shit?

494
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:44,119
Speaker 4: To Anthony Davis and literally broke my brain that Like

495
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 4: it was just like, all right, fuck this, bro I.

496
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:49,439
Speaker 7: Tweet about I tweeted about this tonight. But that shot

497
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 7: looks like when they pick someone out of the crowd

498
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,080
Speaker 7: at Staples Center to try and make a half court

499
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 7: shot for one hundred thousand dollars. Like his form on

500
00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:01,560
Speaker 7: that is just like Steve from section two ten. But

501
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:03,880
Speaker 7: it goes in every time, and I never doubt it either.

502
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 7: Like the second he goes like this, I'm like, oh,

503
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,160
Speaker 7: that's cash, Like I don't it's the ugliest jump shot

504
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,679
Speaker 7: I've ever seen in my life. And I'm never not

505
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,439
Speaker 7: even jump shot. It's the ugliest, like just long rain shocks.

506
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 7: I don't even think he really jumps on it, but

507
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,680
Speaker 7: like I never have a question about I'm shocked when

508
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 7: it doesn't go in. And a few times in game

509
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,440
Speaker 7: two when he missed a couple of those, I was like, what,

510
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:24,680
Speaker 7: I didn't even know you could miss that.

511
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:25,440
Speaker 8: That's automatic.

512
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 2: You can't block it because he's shooting it from behind

513
00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 2: his head, you know what I mean.

514
00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:29,959
Speaker 6: It's unblockable.

515
00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:30,199
Speaker 4: You know.

516
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,560
Speaker 8: I can't wait to go down to like the Park

517
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:33,680
Speaker 8: this summer and.

518
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:40,200
Speaker 4: Just like that, all the trainers in southern California, that's

519
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:40,840
Speaker 4: what they should be.

520
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:44,960
Speaker 5: Give me a thousand dollars. I'll teach your son bullshit.

521
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 8: Like Philip Seymour Hoffman and along King Polly.

522
00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:57,560
Speaker 6: Yeah all right, what.

523
00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:00,760
Speaker 2: A special player though, what a fucking special seriously, you

524
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:03,240
Speaker 2: know what I mean. Like as much as I'm rooting

525
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,399
Speaker 2: for the Timberwolves, you know, I just love Aunt. I

526
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,560
Speaker 2: wanted to see them, you know, pull it off. You

527
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,399
Speaker 2: just get caught up in the beauty of Joker, you

528
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 2: know what I mean. Like in the and like Oh

529
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,600
Speaker 2: my god, this is unbelievable. You feel me like I'm

530
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:16,760
Speaker 2: I was bombed watching because I was like, dam I

531
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 2: didn't want him go out like this, you know, going

532
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:20,359
Speaker 2: one hundred miles an hour, winning six in a row

533
00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:22,359
Speaker 2: and they didn't a brick wall and losing four in

534
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:24,160
Speaker 2: a row is rough, you know what I mean?

535
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 6: But which is what we think is gonna happen.

536
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:30,000
Speaker 2: But uh, I mean, goh, what he's doing is justh

537
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 2: I gave up.

538
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:32,879
Speaker 5: I gave up tonight rooting it. I'm just rooting for

539
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:33,880
Speaker 5: the Nuggets at this point.

540
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:37,760
Speaker 4: I'm just rooting for them to embarrass the Celtics as

541
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:39,439
Speaker 4: like aggressively as possible.

542
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 5: That's me. That's the roomain.

543
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:45,240
Speaker 7: They definitely will, Oh, they definitely will, definitely will. The

544
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 7: thing I know is that Anthony Edwards is definitely gonna

545
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:50,800
Speaker 7: win a championship at some point, and he's definitely gonna

546
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 7: win an MVP at some point.

547
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:53,439
Speaker 8: I feel so certain about that fact.

548
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 7: I mean even ten years from now, he'll be thirty two,

549
00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 7: you know what I'm saying, So like that shit is

550
00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,280
Speaker 7: gonna happen, and I I really do think it's an

551
00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 7: important part of your villain origin story to run into

552
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:06,200
Speaker 7: one of the greatest of all time at the absolute

553
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:09,120
Speaker 7: peak of his powers. I think every great player has

554
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 7: had that happen to them.

555
00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:15,680
Speaker 6: Sos, you know what I'm saying.

556
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,920
Speaker 7: Yeah, everyone has had that, So I think it's it's

557
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:22,320
Speaker 7: going to be important to his development, and I have

558
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,639
Speaker 7: no doubt that he's the kind of like basketball Sico

559
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:26,439
Speaker 7: that's just going to use it as motivation. He's going

560
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:28,239
Speaker 7: to get in the lab this summer and he's going

561
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:31,159
Speaker 7: to come back even better, which is a terrifying idea,

562
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:32,720
Speaker 7: like an even better Anthony Edwards.

563
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:34,040
Speaker 8: He's already so so good.

564
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:36,720
Speaker 4: But I think you made a great point that I

565
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:40,359
Speaker 4: wanted to touch on with him again on leadership. Kat

566
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:43,480
Speaker 4: played like a different guy this year with the Anthony origin.

567
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 4: I think he's had that effect on people who are

568
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:47,199
Speaker 4: older than him. It's kind of insane that he's been

569
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:49,239
Speaker 4: able to do that at twenty two years old. But

570
00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:52,240
Speaker 4: I think I think you're exactly right. Like this series,

571
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:55,920
Speaker 4: you he sees the limitations of that you can turn

572
00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 4: someone into the best version of themselves for X amount

573
00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:00,359
Speaker 4: of time, but you're going to run into an opponent

574
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:03,119
Speaker 4: where you can't turn them into a different person. And

575
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:07,119
Speaker 4: that's what it feels like happened to me in this series.

576
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 7: You know what I mean, No, for sure, And I

577
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 7: think to me, I've spoken on this before, but I

578
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,879
Speaker 7: think the most impressive thing about Anthony Edwards is his leadership.

579
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:16,919
Speaker 7: You know, I think all the other stuff that he's

580
00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:19,480
Speaker 7: obviously a freak athlete, I think he's actually his basketball,

581
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 7: Like we've watched it grow, even in this postseason.

582
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:25,240
Speaker 8: I've watched it grow. He's an incredible basketball player.

583
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,440
Speaker 7: But like you listen to him in those postgame press

584
00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:32,479
Speaker 7: conferences and the way his emotional intelligence when he's like

585
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:34,399
Speaker 7: trying to bring the best out of his team and

586
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:37,399
Speaker 7: his teammates, and like it's really it would be amazing

587
00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:39,840
Speaker 7: at any age really, and for a twenty two year old,

588
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:42,480
Speaker 7: it's like mind boggling, honestly.

589
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:45,160
Speaker 8: So so impressed with him.

590
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:47,280
Speaker 3: So authentic.

591
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 1: He's not the lead with cliches type dude. Like like

592
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:52,719
Speaker 1: you mentioned in this post game he had Cat rights out.

593
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:54,800
Speaker 1: He's like, Cat, what I'll tell you, I as stop balon.

594
00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:55,600
Speaker 1: Ain't that what I told you?

595
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:56,680
Speaker 3: Like you know what I'm saying.

596
00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 1: And it wasn't like he was trying to put a

597
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:00,199
Speaker 1: more spotied though under the bus you could sell. That

598
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,119
Speaker 1: was like private conversation he had where he was coaching

599
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:03,320
Speaker 1: them up and they would have a you need a

600
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:05,960
Speaker 1: laugh about it. So yeah, I'm very much impressed with

601
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,200
Speaker 1: his leadership as well, because, like I said, it's so genuine,

602
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,360
Speaker 1: and for him to be that genuine, like I said,

603
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:12,240
Speaker 1: had that emotional intelligence at such a young age.

604
00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 3: It's incredible.

605
00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:15,080
Speaker 7: He was so smart in that same press conference too,

606
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 7: because on the one hand, he made sure to call

607
00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:20,080
Speaker 7: out Kat publicly about the fouling, but then he said,

608
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,040
Speaker 7: because it's so important for you to be on the

609
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:24,840
Speaker 7: floor because you're our best offensive player, so we need

610
00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:26,640
Speaker 7: you out there and they can't stop you when you're

611
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:29,320
Speaker 7: out there. And like any of us who've worked with

612
00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:33,320
Speaker 7: people forget in basketball anywhere, knows like that is brilliant

613
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 7: to like Couch that feedback with a compliment and with

614
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 7: building him up in that way so that you don't

615
00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:42,719
Speaker 7: you make sure he doesn't lose that confidence, and to

616
00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 7: have that emotional intelligence at twenty two is just like incredible.

617
00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:47,679
Speaker 4: I didn't know about the compliment Sandwich when I was

618
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:48,679
Speaker 4: twenty two years old.

619
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:49,840
Speaker 5: You know what I mean.

620
00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:54,000
Speaker 4: I mean, Hey, if you could do this and then hey,

621
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,919
Speaker 4: because we need you to you know, yeah, it really.

622
00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:59,840
Speaker 8: Is this offensive player, Like that's not even true, dude.

623
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:01,760
Speaker 6: I mean you got Yeah, it was a little bit

624
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 6: of a lie, but it sound very believable. So even

625
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:05,800
Speaker 6: if he's not telling the truth, that sounds.

626
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:11,320
Speaker 1: And believed it when he heard it all for solutely

627
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:11,879
Speaker 1: believed it.

628
00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:14,359
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, and he knows his personnel, like he

629
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,879
Speaker 7: knows who he's working with. Like you know, he was

630
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:20,679
Speaker 7: like when Denver one Game three, you know, Ant was

631
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 7: on the sidelines being like, it's a series, guys, it's

632
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:25,080
Speaker 7: a series. Like we're good, We're good. I'm not worried,

633
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:27,480
Speaker 7: like you know, he wasn't melting down. He wasn't sitting

634
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:29,920
Speaker 7: there with his head in his hands like shaking his head,

635
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,200
Speaker 7: you know, Like his body language was still like super

636
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,520
Speaker 7: on point. And I just like, to me, you know,

637
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 7: athleticism aside, like basketball, I Q aside, like the sky's

638
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 7: the limit for a kid that age with those leadership qualities,

639
00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:44,360
Speaker 7: Like I really think that the sky is the roof

640
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:44,760
Speaker 7: for sure.

641
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:53,040
Speaker 4: The sky was not the limit for the Indiana Pacers tonight.

642
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:54,800
Speaker 4: I think we were all hoping for a much better

643
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 4: game than what we got that nixt won by thirty points. Uh,

644
00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:01,000
Speaker 4: it was too too Game five of person that, you know,

645
00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:04,280
Speaker 4: team that wins that is usually winning the series. I

646
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:06,440
Speaker 4: feel like every time I looked at my group chat,

647
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:09,679
Speaker 4: it was just a bunch of people screaming, why is

648
00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 4: Tyrese Halibert not understanding what moment this game is in

649
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:17,840
Speaker 4: his career? Took nine shots tonight, five of nine for

650
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 4: thirteen points in a must win Game five on the road.

651
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:25,000
Speaker 4: Jalen Brunson not his most efficient scoring night, but clearly

652
00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:28,280
Speaker 4: understood the moment. Took thirty five shots to score forty

653
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:28,760
Speaker 4: four points.

654
00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 6: Yeah.

655
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:30,920
Speaker 5: How disappointing was this guy?

656
00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 4: I really was hoping for a lot more from the

657
00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:36,400
Speaker 4: running gun Pacers and the pace that they've played with

658
00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:38,840
Speaker 4: than to put up this kind of a performance.

659
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:41,280
Speaker 7: Well, I'm personally just so in love with this next

660
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:44,760
Speaker 7: team that it's really coloring my analysis of the series

661
00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 7: because I've just fallen, like head over heels in love

662
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,160
Speaker 7: with this team. I don't know how you couldn't unless

663
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,880
Speaker 7: you're already a Pacers fan. Like they're everything that's good

664
00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:55,520
Speaker 7: about basketball. They play so hard, they play for each other,

665
00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 7: They're like such a team you know what I mean,

666
00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 7: Like it obviously jaylen Brunson is transit, but it's really

667
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:03,080
Speaker 7: not even just about his transcendence. Like they're such a

668
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:05,720
Speaker 7: team and they play for each other and they do

669
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:07,960
Speaker 7: all the little stuff and like the dirty work. They're

670
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,840
Speaker 7: diving on the ground for loose balls, like they're so

671
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:14,000
Speaker 7: New York too, Like it's just, oh, it's beautiful. Knicks

672
00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:16,120
Speaker 7: fans deserve this, Like we were talking about how tortured

673
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 7: Timberwolves fans are, like Knicks fans are right there as

674
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 7: far as like not having a whole lot to cheer

675
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:23,959
Speaker 7: for in the last couple decades. So I'm really happy

676
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:26,640
Speaker 7: for them, and I do think, yeah, part of it

677
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:28,480
Speaker 7: is the Pacers did not rise to the moment, and

678
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:31,000
Speaker 7: Tyre's Halliburton doesn't seem like he understands that, like he

679
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:34,080
Speaker 7: needs to be aggressive for them to be good, period, Like.

680
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:35,480
Speaker 8: That's that's the formula.

681
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 7: Yeah, But then I also think the Knicks just like

682
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:39,880
Speaker 7: we knew they weren't going to go out like that,

683
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,200
Speaker 7: like they weren't going to get embarrassed like that and

684
00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:44,760
Speaker 7: come back and not put on like an incredible performance.

685
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,240
Speaker 8: So that was my take home for sure.

686
00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, they're such a tough team.

687
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:52,280
Speaker 1: Like I feel like their obituary's written like three or

688
00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 1: four times this postseason already, and they come back and

689
00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:57,560
Speaker 1: just fight and claw and scratch the next game and

690
00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 1: get a win every freaking time.

691
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:01,280
Speaker 3: And it's just like, you know, like you said that,

692
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 3: they're just so New York. They're just so tough, they're

693
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:04,200
Speaker 3: so gretty.

694
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:06,600
Speaker 1: They're they're like like I've seen next fans saying this

695
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,800
Speaker 1: is their favorite next team that they've seen, and they're like, oh,

696
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,240
Speaker 1: and I completely understand because they embody so much of

697
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 1: what Knicks basketball is. They're gritty, they're tough, they're fearless,

698
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 1: like you know Dante and you know Dante Miles Turner

699
00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 1: about to go out of Dante wasn't scared of at all, Like.

700
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:26,360
Speaker 3: Brot says, he was confused.

701
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:29,800
Speaker 8: Like really, they so fearless.

702
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,480
Speaker 6: He called the man a bitch and he's a foot

703
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:35,000
Speaker 6: tall than him. It was like like you know what

704
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:37,240
Speaker 6: I'm saying, Like it's crazy, but you're.

705
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,000
Speaker 2: For so for Tye is interested though, because we had

706
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:45,080
Speaker 2: like had taken two shots like in the middle of

707
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 2: the like clost at the end of the.

708
00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:49,120
Speaker 5: Second like you were going to throw your phone. He's

709
00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:50,960
Speaker 5: taking I've.

710
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,560
Speaker 2: Been talking about this all series. You know what I mean,

711
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 2: Like when when ty Reese is I mean, they can't.

712
00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,880
Speaker 2: They're at their best when ty Reche is aggressive, period.

713
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:01,640
Speaker 2: You know I mean, they got out work tonight. They

714
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:02,800
Speaker 2: got out work tonight, period.

715
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:03,320
Speaker 6: You know what I mean.

716
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:07,840
Speaker 2: I think, like like there was what's what's on the

717
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:12,600
Speaker 2: big man? Hart and Son hard though Hertenstein had had

718
00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:15,880
Speaker 2: more offensive rebounds and they had rebounds at one point.

719
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 6: In the game. You feel what I'm saying, Like they

720
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:19,360
Speaker 6: just got they got they got out work tonight. You

721
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 6: feel what I'm saying.

722
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:23,720
Speaker 2: But like Tyree's at minimum, you have to be aggressive

723
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:24,320
Speaker 2: for them to win.

724
00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:25,479
Speaker 6: They have no chances.

725
00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:27,840
Speaker 2: He's not aggressive, and so it's just odd to see

726
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:31,040
Speaker 2: a player have, like as good as he is, to

727
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,360
Speaker 2: be so passive in a moment like this.

728
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:36,480
Speaker 4: You just you mentioned the rebounding stat We've talked a

729
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:39,240
Speaker 4: lot about how demoralizing it is to have that offensive

730
00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:43,880
Speaker 4: rebound margin. You have eleven offensive rebounds the Knicks to

731
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:46,000
Speaker 4: Night had, Yeah, he had twelve, The Knicks to Night

732
00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 4: had twenty.

733
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 5: Hartenstein had twelve.

734
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:51,720
Speaker 4: They had twenty offensive rebounds to twenty nine total rebounds

735
00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:52,480
Speaker 4: by the Pacers.

736
00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:53,040
Speaker 5: That's funny.

737
00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:54,880
Speaker 7: You're not going to win a game that way, especially

738
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:57,800
Speaker 7: not Massive Square Garden. I thought it was similar. Actually,

739
00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:00,160
Speaker 7: it was like a similar sort of young person in

740
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 7: learning curve moment. The way the Pacers responded to that

741
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,640
Speaker 7: blowout game and how they came out in the next game,

742
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 7: and the timberwol same thing after game two, how they

743
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:12,520
Speaker 7: came out in game three. Like I think that there

744
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:14,960
Speaker 7: is something to like not having been there before, like

745
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 7: that youth and inexperience to thinking like shit, sweet after

746
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:20,360
Speaker 7: you blow a team out and embarrass them and then

747
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:22,120
Speaker 7: you come back the next game and like you forget

748
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:24,640
Speaker 7: that these are not only NBA players but NBA players

749
00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:27,080
Speaker 7: in the second round of the playoffs. Like you're not

750
00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:29,480
Speaker 7: gonna cakewalk anywhere in the playoffs, Like you have to

751
00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:31,360
Speaker 7: it's zero zero every single game.

752
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:32,720
Speaker 8: That's the only way you can approach it.

753
00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 4: Jackson just texted me there's a quote from Dante DiVincenzo

754
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,040
Speaker 4: after the game. They're trying to be tough guys. That's

755
00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 4: not their identity.

756
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:45,720
Speaker 6: I believe, bro.

757
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:49,320
Speaker 2: I know Dante is a foot shorter and turner, but

758
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:52,280
Speaker 2: Dante seemed more believable in that situation. You know what

759
00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:55,040
Speaker 2: I mean, I was gonna turner like you really ay,

760
00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:57,360
Speaker 2: you know, like it seemed like a hold me backshit.

761
00:32:57,440 --> 00:32:59,720
Speaker 6: And I'm not saying any I don't notice. Man, you

762
00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:00,120
Speaker 6: know he.

763
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:02,000
Speaker 2: Might be like that, you feel me, But the energy

764
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:04,440
Speaker 2: I was getting it made it made sense for him

765
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,880
Speaker 2: to say that, you know what I mean, in that altercation.

766
00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:09,640
Speaker 2: But if you were talking about them like feeling like

767
00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:11,480
Speaker 2: shits sweet, I kind of feel like the Timberwolves did

768
00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:14,920
Speaker 2: the same thing, but timbolves the first two games out work,

769
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:17,560
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. The Nuggets point blank, you

770
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,200
Speaker 2: feel me? They were I mean they were to national defense.

771
00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:21,960
Speaker 2: They put so much pressure you know what I'm saying

772
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:24,400
Speaker 2: on offense and then they got comfortable.

773
00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:27,680
Speaker 6: Yeah yeah, yeah, that's interesting.

774
00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:30,200
Speaker 5: Well versus yeah, versus.

775
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:32,680
Speaker 4: You listen to what Kid said after the game tonight,

776
00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:36,520
Speaker 4: and one of the unfortunate things about sports is that

777
00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,840
Speaker 4: like the like coach speak is true, right, Like and

778
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,200
Speaker 4: jo Kic after the game, they're like, oh, you know,

779
00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:44,560
Speaker 4: you guys played with desperation and he cut the interview.

780
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:46,960
Speaker 4: He was like, we're still desperate. Our back is still

781
00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:48,920
Speaker 4: against the wall. Where they get like.

782
00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:53,480
Speaker 5: And and it's not Michae alone Michael. He's not bullshitting

783
00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:57,760
Speaker 5: you know, no, no, no.

784
00:33:57,680 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 6: But I think he doesn't like people call him Mic.

785
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:02,920
Speaker 7: Right like it because he embarrassed Cassidy Hubbers on TV.

786
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:04,960
Speaker 7: I think it was in the bubble. She was like, yeah,

787
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:07,400
Speaker 7: like coach Mike Malone. He's like, it's Michael. And I'm like,

788
00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:08,479
Speaker 7: you could have done that off TV.

789
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:09,719
Speaker 5: You didn't need to do that, you could have done

790
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:10,120
Speaker 5: it off TV.

791
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:11,680
Speaker 4: And also we had a lot of fun with him

792
00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:13,640
Speaker 4: at that point, clear because it's like, who wants to

793
00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:14,920
Speaker 4: be a Michael like?

794
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:18,720
Speaker 5: And I it's like I've.

795
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:21,600
Speaker 4: Never known and I actually he seems like obviously a

796
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:23,640
Speaker 4: great coach, he seems like a good dude, but like,

797
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 4: I've never known a person in real life who wanted

798
00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:28,759
Speaker 4: to be called by Michael who is not an just

799
00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:30,480
Speaker 4: an enormous asshole.

800
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:33,279
Speaker 5: Yeah, but yeah, I don't know.

801
00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:35,600
Speaker 4: I think that's like you can see Jokic really believes

802
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:38,120
Speaker 4: that he's not just saying it because he heard his

803
00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:40,839
Speaker 4: coach say he knows it. He's really saying no, no, no, no,

804
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:43,719
Speaker 4: they woke us up. We were down oh two, and

805
00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:46,840
Speaker 4: we're not gonna feel like we're not desperate until halfway

806
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 4: through the parade, Like that's just where they're going to

807
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 4: be coming from. And you know that there's a genuine

808
00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:55,120
Speaker 4: power to that. And I agree with you. It feels

809
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:56,960
Speaker 4: like the Knicks are very tapped into that right now.

810
00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,319
Speaker 4: And I hope they get it done. I hope they

811
00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:02,800
Speaker 4: can give this self the series. But you know, the

812
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:07,000
Speaker 4: Celtics limp right into the fucking thresher that is the Nuggets.

813
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:08,080
Speaker 5: That's fine with me too.

814
00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:10,680
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, I honestly think the Knicks would have

815
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:12,400
Speaker 7: I think the Knicks would be in the finals this

816
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:14,880
Speaker 7: year if they had og and Obi and Mitchell Robinson.

817
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:17,480
Speaker 8: Like, I don't have any faith in the Celtics team.

818
00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:19,800
Speaker 7: I've been banging that, like seeing that from the rooftops

819
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 7: all year long. I think that they you know, when

820
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 7: when things are going well, when they're front running, when.

821
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:26,759
Speaker 5: They get off lead total, they.

822
00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:28,759
Speaker 8: Play incredible and they look unstoppable.

823
00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:33,480
Speaker 7: At the first sign of adversity, they completely abandon everything

824
00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:34,239
Speaker 7: that makes them good.

825
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:36,480
Speaker 8: They play dumb iso ball.

826
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:38,640
Speaker 7: I was telling some friends tonight, like, to me, the

827
00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:41,120
Speaker 7: Celtics look like the absolute best guys at the y

828
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:44,839
Speaker 7: playing pick up like They're all really good, really good. Sorry,

829
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:46,920
Speaker 7: I like them so disgusted by them that I like

830
00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:50,120
Speaker 7: you threw up in your mouth a little talking about

831
00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:55,080
Speaker 7: the Celtics.

832
00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:55,920
Speaker 6: Office made you gag.

833
00:35:57,160 --> 00:36:01,640
Speaker 4: Truly, No, I'm gonna just start doing that when we're

834
00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:02,600
Speaker 4: talking about the Celtics.

835
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:04,560
Speaker 5: I'm gonna I love that. That was awesome.

836
00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:07,839
Speaker 7: But they they really do just look like a bunch

837
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,760
Speaker 7: of very talented guys playing together versus like the Knicks,

838
00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:13,279
Speaker 7: like I said, are like a capital T team. And

839
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:16,200
Speaker 7: I really think the Knicks could have taken them at

840
00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:18,680
Speaker 7: full strength even with Krisaps if Kris Sabs was there.

841
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:21,000
Speaker 7: I would take the Knicks fully healthy in a seven

842
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:23,640
Speaker 7: game series against the Celtics, fully healthy. Not because of talent,

843
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:25,840
Speaker 7: because obviously the Celtics are the more talented team in

844
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:28,480
Speaker 7: that case, but just because, like when the going gets tough,

845
00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:31,479
Speaker 7: when the other team is like the grittier, tougher team,

846
00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:34,759
Speaker 7: the Celtics have shown time and time again that they

847
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:36,000
Speaker 7: will abandon what works.

848
00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:37,520
Speaker 8: So I don't trust him.

849
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:40,879
Speaker 2: I think May had him, Like I think when em

850
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:43,279
Speaker 2: was coaching, he gave him that grittiness, you know what

851
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:43,600
Speaker 2: I mean.

852
00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:45,520
Speaker 6: Like I think he like Jason Tatum.

853
00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:47,640
Speaker 2: You know he's like, yo, bro, like fuck all that

854
00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:52,799
Speaker 2: cute shit, Jason Tatum was the biggest loser of e

855
00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:56,880
Speaker 2: may being a freaky frog. You know what I'm saying, Like,

856
00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:00,000
Speaker 2: Jason Tatum, what's the what's the biggest loser?

857
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:04,960
Speaker 6: For sure? I'm just saying like I'm just saying.

858
00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:07,160
Speaker 2: Bro, Like, I mean, a man, a man was moving

859
00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:09,240
Speaker 2: real real, real nasty.

860
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:09,960
Speaker 5: You know what I mean.

861
00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:11,760
Speaker 6: We were real nasty.

862
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:15,560
Speaker 2: But anyway, Yeah, I think Jason because losing Jason Tatum's

863
00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:17,759
Speaker 2: whole legacy, Bro, I mean, he.

864
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:19,759
Speaker 6: Might they might have had a dynasty at this point,

865
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:20,359
Speaker 6: you know what I mean.

866
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:24,600
Speaker 2: Like if Jason Tatum like was playing tough like and

867
00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:27,120
Speaker 2: big moments, you know, that'd be that'd be crazy. So

868
00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:31,040
Speaker 2: but yeah, man, but yeah, I agree with They're just

869
00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:33,359
Speaker 2: when when when the ship you know, when the ship

870
00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:35,280
Speaker 2: is hot, Bro, they just they just crumble.

871
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:43,440
Speaker 4: We have got to talk about because I know all

872
00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:47,280
Speaker 4: four of us are painfully invested in the Lakers coaching search,

873
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:51,720
Speaker 4: which officially hit today.

874
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:53,759
Speaker 8: Coach K.

875
00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:59,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, so coach K is on as a consultant.

876
00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:04,520
Speaker 8: Where did he coach again? Sorry I can't remember. I

877
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:06,480
Speaker 8: don't want to refresh my memory there he.

878
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:11,760
Speaker 5: Coached Sam Cassell. I think, didn't he coach Sam Cassell? Claire?

879
00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,719
Speaker 5: I think was it? You tweeted out the video of

880
00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:19,960
Speaker 5: Bron's hypothetical, so yes that this is so funny.

881
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:25,160
Speaker 4: Claire tweeted out on their podcast Broun asking JJ Reddick

882
00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:29,279
Speaker 4: hypothetically like when you're coaching your kids, do you like

883
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:31,840
Speaker 4: more threes or do you like I mean, but he

884
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:35,319
Speaker 4: even was doing his fucking Bron face of like, yeah,

885
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:38,400
Speaker 4: I'm so cute, Like this is gonna be so funny

886
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:39,920
Speaker 4: when you end up being the head coach of the

887
00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:41,080
Speaker 4: Lakers in two months.

888
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:41,920
Speaker 5: And there was a.

889
00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:46,560
Speaker 7: Between coaching your kids like hypothetically when you're coaching your

890
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:51,800
Speaker 7: kids your kids, and then JJ just started like hysterically

891
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:53,560
Speaker 7: laughing because it was the most unsubtle.

892
00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:55,840
Speaker 8: Yeah, that was awesome.

893
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,839
Speaker 7: I love their podcast for the record, but it's really good.

894
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:00,960
Speaker 5: Are you excited to watch eighty two games of it

895
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:01,439
Speaker 5: next year?

896
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:04,799
Speaker 7: Well, I mean I end up covering like so I'm

897
00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:07,600
Speaker 7: technically a national writer, but I end up covering like

898
00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:09,600
Speaker 7: a lot of Lakers just because like I live in

899
00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:13,799
Speaker 7: La right, and so I will be I'm sure attending

900
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:18,600
Speaker 7: you know, forty something. JJ Reddick postgame prest conferences next year.

901
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:23,960
Speaker 7: I think I'm of of the available coaches. Honestly, I

902
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:26,200
Speaker 7: think it's the best choice. I really do like without

903
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:29,680
Speaker 7: a shred of irony, I don't I don't think. I

904
00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:32,759
Speaker 7: don't think you need like a super experienced coach in

905
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:34,319
Speaker 7: this role. I think you need a guy that these

906
00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:37,239
Speaker 7: guys respect and that they're going to listen to, and

907
00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:39,719
Speaker 7: that has a good basketball mind. And also the most

908
00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:43,160
Speaker 7: important thing, which I do think he's smart enough and

909
00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:46,640
Speaker 7: self aware enough to know, is like when to reverse course,

910
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:50,600
Speaker 7: when to humble yourself, and you know, take advice. And

911
00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:53,759
Speaker 7: if he has a great supporting coaching staff around him,

912
00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:56,280
Speaker 7: and he's willing to listen to like what the players

913
00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:58,719
Speaker 7: think like I do think that's you have one of

914
00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:00,960
Speaker 7: the greatest basketball minds in all time and Lebron James

915
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:03,520
Speaker 7: like on your team. I don't think you need to

916
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:06,959
Speaker 7: be like Spoe to be a competent coach for this team.

917
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:08,840
Speaker 7: I think you need to be able to make in

918
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:11,760
Speaker 7: game adjustments. I think you need to be able to

919
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:15,719
Speaker 7: detect who your best five players are more them play

920
00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:17,480
Speaker 7: them more than the other players who aren't as good

921
00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:20,680
Speaker 7: and aren't making as much money, and I think you

922
00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:24,640
Speaker 7: need to understand your personnel and understand like you know,

923
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:27,040
Speaker 7: I think Darvin had a coaching philosophy that was he

924
00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:29,400
Speaker 7: was very you know, it was very committed to, and

925
00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:32,560
Speaker 7: I don't think he had the personnel that match that philosophy,

926
00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:36,120
Speaker 7: and instead of adjusting to his personnel, he tried to

927
00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:38,360
Speaker 7: adjust the personnel to the philosophy.

928
00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:40,879
Speaker 8: Like I think he's just about guards who can run fast.

929
00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:43,359
Speaker 7: I think that's what he wants to see on the court,

930
00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:46,000
Speaker 7: and that's what he believes in. And the Lakers strength

931
00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:49,239
Speaker 7: was always the bigger that those lineups were, the better

932
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:49,600
Speaker 7: they were.

933
00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:50,600
Speaker 5: So I.

934
00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:55,400
Speaker 1: Think with Bron, he wants a coach who is on

935
00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:56,879
Speaker 1: the same page with him. He doesn't want a coach

936
00:40:56,880 --> 00:40:58,239
Speaker 1: to lead him or to teach him. He wants a

937
00:40:58,280 --> 00:40:59,920
Speaker 1: coach who sees the game the same way he does.

938
00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:02,000
Speaker 1: And I think came in JJC the game the same way.

939
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:04,480
Speaker 1: And he knows that, you know, because we remember that

940
00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:07,880
Speaker 1: moment where it was after a Lakers lost this season

941
00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:11,200
Speaker 1: and Bron you know, was about to answer question, but

942
00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:12,919
Speaker 1: he said, no, no, I'm gonna stop myself right there

943
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:15,360
Speaker 1: because he knew the answer. He knew what should have

944
00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:17,360
Speaker 1: been done in that game, right, But Darvin Half, for

945
00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:19,319
Speaker 1: whatever reason, was not on the same page with him.

946
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:21,719
Speaker 1: So Bron isn't looking for someone out there to give

947
00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:22,880
Speaker 1: him a guy and sort of be a teacher. He's

948
00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:24,520
Speaker 1: looking for someone to be on the same page. And

949
00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:26,239
Speaker 1: I think him and JJ are for showing the same page.

950
00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:28,160
Speaker 1: And I think jj'ss guy. And I've said that ever

951
00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:30,480
Speaker 1: since the dots started connecting on why he started that

952
00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:32,920
Speaker 1: podcast with him? Yeah, that whole podcast has just been

953
00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:34,720
Speaker 1: one big piece of campaign material.

954
00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:34,880
Speaker 2: Bro.

955
00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:36,400
Speaker 8: Yes, brilliantly.

956
00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:43,080
Speaker 4: Jason Gallagher the best campaign manager out there. GA Gallagher

957
00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:47,120
Speaker 4: for the successful campaign managing of the JJ Reddick twenty

958
00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:47,640
Speaker 4: twenty four.

959
00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:50,800
Speaker 8: I'm the president of the Jason Gallagher Fan Club.

960
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:54,839
Speaker 4: I think I think Jackson's the vice president. We all

961
00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:57,320
Speaker 4: love Jason for sure. It's just funny. It's like it's

962
00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:03,240
Speaker 4: genuinely such a great podcast. But it does increase, like yeah,

963
00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:06,200
Speaker 4: like the QVC, like did you like this podcast called

964
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:08,600
Speaker 4: one eight hundred JJ Reddick to order him as your

965
00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:09,360
Speaker 4: coach tonight?

966
00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:11,319
Speaker 5: Like, oh my god.

967
00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:13,520
Speaker 7: The other one I think is an important I just

968
00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:15,120
Speaker 7: want to say real quick while we're still on the

969
00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:16,280
Speaker 7: Lakers coaching topic.

970
00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:17,800
Speaker 8: Like the other thing I think is really.

971
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:21,239
Speaker 7: Important for a coach of specifically the Lakers and also

972
00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:23,799
Speaker 7: just a Lebron James team in general. To be that

973
00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:26,960
Speaker 7: Darvinham was not is like willing to fall on the sword,

974
00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:29,600
Speaker 7: even if it's not even if you don't actually believe

975
00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:31,520
Speaker 7: it's your fault, Like you have to be willing to

976
00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:34,799
Speaker 7: take some accountability. It's just the nature of the job,

977
00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:37,760
Speaker 7: especially especially the Lakers. Honestly, with anyone on it, without Lebron,

978
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:41,360
Speaker 7: it's such a high profile franchise and Darvin was always

979
00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:44,360
Speaker 7: so reticent to accept any responsibility and it was always

980
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:46,759
Speaker 7: like deflecting blame and like, oh we just when we

981
00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:48,400
Speaker 7: get whole, or like oh we need to play with

982
00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:50,080
Speaker 7: more energy, or oh just tip your cap to the

983
00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:50,480
Speaker 7: other team.

984
00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:52,080
Speaker 8: They're just better tonight, you know.

985
00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:55,279
Speaker 7: And so I think JJ's media savvy, he's smart, he

986
00:42:55,360 --> 00:42:57,120
Speaker 7: knows how to work a press conference, and I think

987
00:42:57,160 --> 00:43:00,759
Speaker 7: that's a really important like understand quality of Lakers head coat.

988
00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:02,960
Speaker 6: I think Darvin always knew his head was on a

989
00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:05,040
Speaker 6: chopping block though, you know what I mean.

990
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:06,399
Speaker 5: Well, he was over I think he was in over

991
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:09,000
Speaker 5: his head and he was.

992
00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:11,319
Speaker 7: Always was trying to project really dude though, by the way,

993
00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:12,640
Speaker 7: I just feel like I should say that as I'm

994
00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:14,840
Speaker 7: like sitting on him, right, huge fan.

995
00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:16,439
Speaker 4: Of him as a prayer We said that, We said

996
00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:19,640
Speaker 4: that when we did our celebration Balloons Dropping podcast that

997
00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:21,040
Speaker 4: he got fired. It was like, I think he's a

998
00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:24,399
Speaker 4: great guy. His life story is unbelievable. Yeah, A big

999
00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:26,160
Speaker 4: fan of him as a person. It just has nothing to

1000
00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:28,000
Speaker 4: do with being the head coach at the Lakers without

1001
00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:29,160
Speaker 4: due respect.

1002
00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:32,640
Speaker 2: Right, So, how do you feel about JJ Mike, how

1003
00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:34,000
Speaker 2: do you feel? I know we've been talking about we

1004
00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:34,520
Speaker 2: want to frame.

1005
00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:39,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, so I wanted jj Reddick, as we all discussed,

1006
00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:41,960
Speaker 4: would not have been that experiment, would not be how

1007
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:44,000
Speaker 4: I would want the next couple of years ago. I

1008
00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:48,000
Speaker 4: don't I'm personally I would be very happy if they

1009
00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:53,359
Speaker 4: hired Sam Kassel jj Reddick. I think to Claire's point,

1010
00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:56,000
Speaker 4: I don't disagree that he would not necessarily be the

1011
00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:58,279
Speaker 4: best option number one. First off, he keeps Lebron, and

1012
00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:01,000
Speaker 4: he keeps Lebron happy. They're just they're all in on

1013
00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:04,160
Speaker 4: that at this point, right, There's no version of this

1014
00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:05,920
Speaker 4: team that I'm excited to watch next year.

1015
00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:09,279
Speaker 5: That's just not it's just not the way things currently look.

1016
00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:13,480
Speaker 4: That being said, this is the story of the Lakers

1017
00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:16,319
Speaker 4: in the last couple of decades is they get up

1018
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:19,040
Speaker 4: to the plate, they do not watch strikes, They swing

1019
00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:21,000
Speaker 4: as hard as they can, and they are gonna hit

1020
00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:23,440
Speaker 4: a home run or they are gonna strike out and

1021
00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:26,120
Speaker 4: miss the ball by two feet in one direction or another.

1022
00:44:26,560 --> 00:44:31,319
Speaker 4: Steve Nash and Dwight Howard. Obviously bringing in Bron ad

1023
00:44:31,640 --> 00:44:34,319
Speaker 4: is great the baby Lakers with the braby, but then

1024
00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:38,680
Speaker 4: you bring in Russell Westbrook big strikeout, you know you

1025
00:44:38,680 --> 00:44:40,600
Speaker 4: you go, Okay, we're gonna give this guy. I mean,

1026
00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:43,200
Speaker 4: think about really how crazy it is to give Darvin

1027
00:44:43,239 --> 00:44:46,240
Speaker 4: Ham his first shot at being an NBA head coach

1028
00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:52,840
Speaker 4: with potentially the end of Lebron James's career. Like you know,

1029
00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:55,600
Speaker 4: I mean, like that really that's a big swing and

1030
00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:59,000
Speaker 4: it didn't work out. He was not necessarily like in

1031
00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:01,920
Speaker 4: the position or ready for that job. So jj Reddick,

1032
00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:04,719
Speaker 4: he could be pat Riley, I mean, like that's the

1033
00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:07,719
Speaker 4: best case scenario, or he could be another guy where

1034
00:45:07,719 --> 00:45:09,759
Speaker 4: it's a second time in a row you try to

1035
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:12,920
Speaker 4: give someone their first head coaching job. With Liberty the

1036
00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:15,560
Speaker 4: tail end of Lebron James's career. I'm at this point,

1037
00:45:15,600 --> 00:45:18,560
Speaker 4: I'm sort of resigned to that until the Lakers become

1038
00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:22,799
Speaker 4: owned by the Guggenheim group that owns the Dodgers and

1039
00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:25,680
Speaker 4: everything else in LA, that runs everything off of an

1040
00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:28,920
Speaker 4: AI model that's correct about everything. This is what the

1041
00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:31,440
Speaker 4: Lakers are. It's gonna be big swings and fuck it

1042
00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:32,880
Speaker 4: like it'll be interesting.

1043
00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:34,160
Speaker 5: Is never boring.

1044
00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:35,600
Speaker 8: What I've heard.

1045
00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:38,040
Speaker 7: What I've heard that is heartening is that they're willing

1046
00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:42,280
Speaker 7: to when they entered this coaching search, they were willing

1047
00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:45,480
Speaker 7: to pay whatever for like the best candidate possible. And

1048
00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:47,879
Speaker 7: that was really heartening to me because obviously, I think

1049
00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:50,279
Speaker 7: the Russ move was the worst mistake they've made, and

1050
00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:52,040
Speaker 7: I mean it was one of the worst NBA like

1051
00:45:52,080 --> 00:45:55,359
Speaker 7: front office mistakes ever honestly, like historically. But I think

1052
00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:58,400
Speaker 7: the second worst mistake they've made in Lebron's tenure was

1053
00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:02,840
Speaker 7: not was like, uh, giving TYLERU an offensively low offer

1054
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:11,319
Speaker 7: like ty and making him and because honestly, like I

1055
00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:13,800
Speaker 7: really believe in my heart of hearts that if Tyler

1056
00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:15,839
Speaker 7: had been the Lakers coach this whole time, they would

1057
00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:18,120
Speaker 7: have multiple Championships, Like I really.

1058
00:46:18,080 --> 00:46:22,040
Speaker 8: I think that's kind of just objective fact honestly, And.

1059
00:46:22,080 --> 00:46:24,279
Speaker 4: You wouldn't have let them get rid of he would

1060
00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:27,799
Speaker 4: have like he would have grabbed himself around kcp's leg

1061
00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:28,840
Speaker 4: and been like no.

1062
00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:30,480
Speaker 8: So many things wouldn't have happened.

1063
00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:30,879
Speaker 5: I mean.

1064
00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:32,880
Speaker 7: And also he wouldn't have lost the locker room that

1065
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:36,120
Speaker 7: was because that was Frank Vogel's biggest downfall is that

1066
00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:36,920
Speaker 7: he lost locker room.

1067
00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:38,360
Speaker 8: Same thing obviously happened in Phoenix.

1068
00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:40,239
Speaker 7: It's not that Frank Vogel is not an excellent NBA

1069
00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:43,239
Speaker 7: head coach, but the problem is, like managing egos and

1070
00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:46,600
Speaker 7: managing superstars is a huge part of coaching beside like

1071
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:49,399
Speaker 7: x's and O's aside, And he lost that locker room,

1072
00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:52,239
Speaker 7: and I like, just knowing TYLERU, he would not like,

1073
00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:55,120
Speaker 7: that's not Tyler's bag. Like, if he's going to do anything,

1074
00:46:55,160 --> 00:46:58,200
Speaker 7: he's going to have these guys respect. So that to

1075
00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:00,719
Speaker 7: me is like shaking fist at Sky the Lakers for

1076
00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:02,800
Speaker 7: not paying that man, because I don't think that they're

1077
00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:04,920
Speaker 7: going to lure him away from the Clippers. I think

1078
00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:07,120
Speaker 7: Steve Balmer is gonna throw whatever bag he needs to

1079
00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:08,280
Speaker 7: at him to keep him.

1080
00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:10,760
Speaker 4: We made him an extra couple million dollars with the Clippers.

1081
00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:11,520
Speaker 4: I feel like that's.

1082
00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:15,480
Speaker 8: What we did basically, and he deserves every penny's.

1083
00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:18,560
Speaker 5: Wait, well, yeah, you're you're, you're.

1084
00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:22,040
Speaker 4: You're tapping into a lot of well worn storylines on

1085
00:47:22,080 --> 00:47:26,880
Speaker 4: this podcast. Okay, a couple of non basketball things to

1086
00:47:26,920 --> 00:47:29,200
Speaker 4: talk about. Did you guys see this portal that they

1087
00:47:29,239 --> 00:47:30,800
Speaker 4: opened from New York to Dublin.

1088
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:33,080
Speaker 3: Why did they do that?

1089
00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:36,560
Speaker 5: What we want you see?

1090
00:47:35,960 --> 00:47:38,919
Speaker 6: The immediately they opened.

1091
00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:42,400
Speaker 4: They opened this it's like a big circular screen with

1092
00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:44,719
Speaker 4: a live camera in I don't know if it was

1093
00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:47,640
Speaker 4: Times Square somewhere else, like you know, dense in a

1094
00:47:47,680 --> 00:47:50,000
Speaker 4: densely populated part of New York and it was just

1095
00:47:50,080 --> 00:47:53,400
Speaker 4: on a live camera to Dublin, so people in Ireland

1096
00:47:53,440 --> 00:47:55,960
Speaker 4: and people in New York could go and like someone

1097
00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:58,600
Speaker 4: in Dublin put up a picture on their phone and

1098
00:47:58,640 --> 00:47:59,720
Speaker 4: held it up to the camera.

1099
00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:04,120
Speaker 5: Nine to eleven, someone in New York flashed. The woman

1100
00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:06,000
Speaker 5: flashed her chest at the people in Dublin.

1101
00:48:06,360 --> 00:48:08,879
Speaker 4: I think it made it like sixteen hours before they

1102
00:48:08,920 --> 00:48:12,359
Speaker 4: shut it down, and we're like human beings.

1103
00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:15,160
Speaker 1: The woman who in New York who flashed her chest

1104
00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:17,040

1105
00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:20,359
Speaker 3: I am not making that up. That is exactly what

1106

00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:25,680
Speaker 3: worst ever. Know.

1108
00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:31,160
Speaker 4: I respect, I respect people who trust human beings enough

1109
00:48:31,200 --> 00:48:32,400
Speaker 4: to put something up like this.

1110
00:48:32,560 --> 00:48:34,000
Speaker 5: I just don't understand them.

1111
00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:36,719
Speaker 7: I just you in New Yorker who trusts human beings?

1112
00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:38,440
Speaker 7: That That's what I don't understand.

1113
00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:40,600
Speaker 8: How have you lived in New York City?

1114
00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:42,440
Speaker 7: Like you have to keep your head on a swivel

1115
00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:45,560
Speaker 7: at all times in New York like nobody trusts anybody there.

1116
00:48:47,239 --> 00:48:47,840
Speaker 5: I don't know.

1117
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:51,000
Speaker 6: They revealed the purpose? Have they revealed the purpose of this?

1118
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:54,840
Speaker 6: It was just like a fun little experiment. Let's just

1119
00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:55,960
Speaker 6: see what happens time show.

1120
00:48:56,040 --> 00:48:57,680
Speaker 8: That's what they said when they made Jurassic Park.

1121
00:48:57,800 --> 00:49:04,440
Speaker 5: So it kind of was a sick Parks yeah situation. Okay.

1122
00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:08,400
Speaker 4: The last thing was, did y'all see the graduation speech

1123
00:49:08,640 --> 00:49:14,680
Speaker 4: that Harrison Butker gave the Chiefs the Chiefs punter?

1124
00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:17,480
Speaker 8: Yea, I saw some of it?

1125
00:49:17,600 --> 00:49:18,719
Speaker 5: Yeah, Okay, I.

1126
00:49:18,760 --> 00:49:21,000
Speaker 2: Think I saw like a little snippet that did y'all

1127
00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:22,440
Speaker 2: drop that in the group to was y'all?

1128
00:49:22,520 --> 00:49:23,600
Speaker 6: Or that might be another one?

1129
00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:24,279
Speaker 5: I think so.

1130
00:49:25,480 --> 00:49:29,720
Speaker 4: Harrison Bucker went into his barber first of all and said,

1131
00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:32,200
Speaker 4: give me the most obnoxious ship on the on the

1132
00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:36,759
Speaker 4: fucking charts at the moment.

1133
00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:38,640
Speaker 5: But yeah, one hundred percent.

1134
00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:41,600
Speaker 4: But it's like you can see what he was seeing

1135
00:49:41,719 --> 00:49:45,000
Speaker 4: in his head of like, this is the day I

1136
00:49:45,120 --> 00:49:50,200
Speaker 4: launched my eventual presidential candidacy by going on stage and

1137
00:49:50,280 --> 00:49:54,080
Speaker 4: talking about how women should not have careers and how

1138
00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:59,840
Speaker 4: men have been lied to about masculinity being toxic. What's

1139
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:02,840
Speaker 4: who was this, Bena Dickkine College?

1140
00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:03,880
Speaker 5: I do believe that.

1141
00:50:04,040 --> 00:50:06,200
Speaker 6: Okay, yeah, I.

1142
00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:08,680
Speaker 4: Don't know, Tyler. What was your reaction to Harrison Bucker's

1143
00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:09,800
Speaker 4: graduation speech?

1144
00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:13,200
Speaker 1: First thing I saw? I thought, when I saw this, buddy,

1145
00:50:13,239 --> 00:50:16,319
Speaker 1: we are about to do some kicker shaming. Like that

1146
00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:19,120
Speaker 1: was my very first thought, and that has been the

1147
00:50:19,239 --> 00:50:22,000
Speaker 1: direct point of attack that everyone's coming with. Like I

1148
00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:24,640
Speaker 1: saw someone say, we're having a kicker preach to us

1149
00:50:24,640 --> 00:50:26,640
Speaker 1: about what the peak of masculinity is, and like, I

1150
00:50:27,080 --> 00:50:28,440
Speaker 1: think that's all they needs to be said here.

1151
00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:32,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, man, like you're a kicker, that's it.

1152
00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:36,640
Speaker 7: You're like the you're like the pansiest like football player

1153
00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:37,720
Speaker 7: that there are.

1154
00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:40,080
Speaker 3: Like your coworkers don't even respect you, Bro.

1155
00:50:40,680 --> 00:50:44,320
Speaker 4: No NFL players feel about kickers the way NBA players

1156
00:50:44,360 --> 00:50:45,560
Speaker 4: feel about Rudy Gobert.

1157
00:50:45,680 --> 00:50:46,319
Speaker 5: That's a fact.

1158
00:50:46,480 --> 00:50:49,760
Speaker 8: That's that's fact. Even the good ones.

1159
00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:53,719
Speaker 1: Iran Meyer, old ass was abusing a kicker, like they

1160
00:50:53,719 --> 00:50:55,440
Speaker 1: said he would just run up to the kicker and

1161
00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:58,359
Speaker 1: just kick him in his shins, like sixty year old

1162
00:50:58,560 --> 00:51:01,040
Speaker 1: Urban Meyer thought you was somebody to just steal off.

1163
00:51:01,080 --> 00:51:03,480
Speaker 3: All Bro, you're literally.

1164
00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:07,160
Speaker 7: You're playing like the most violent high contact sport on Earth,

1165
00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:09,640
Speaker 7: and you're the only player who is guaranteed that no

1166
00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:10,839
Speaker 7: one can lay a finger on you.

1167
00:51:11,480 --> 00:51:13,680
Speaker 8: Like that's soft as ship, I mean.

1168
00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:18,480
Speaker 4: Not allowed to touch him, can't do it anyway. I

1169
00:51:18,560 --> 00:51:21,200
Speaker 4: had to make fun of Harrison Butker also a bad name.

1170
00:51:21,640 --> 00:51:23,600
Speaker 4: It looks like a type of Butler. Every time I

1171
00:51:23,640 --> 00:51:25,360
Speaker 4: see it, I think someone missed type of butler.

1172
00:51:27,080 --> 00:51:30,680
Speaker 7: Yeah, I hope he gets waved for saying that stuff.

1173
00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:33,719
Speaker 7: He probably won't because you know football, but I he

1174
00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:36,560
Speaker 7: shouldn't be allowed to because he that was I mean,

1175
00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:39,160
Speaker 7: he said so many incredibly out of pocket things that

1176
00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:43,400
Speaker 7: I won't repeat. But yeah, in any like respectable job

1177
00:51:43,920 --> 00:51:48,040
Speaker 7: in America, forget like sports, just anywhere, like publicly saying

1178
00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:49,840
Speaker 7: on the record, all the stuff he said today should

1179
00:51:49,840 --> 00:51:50,400
Speaker 7: get you fired.

1180
00:51:50,520 --> 00:51:57,520
Speaker 5: So with this face, God, yes, you've been lied to.

1181
00:51:58,400 --> 00:52:00,480
Speaker 8: He took like three yig bombs then.

1182
00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:06,360
Speaker 7: Not on stage, just said the dumbest stuff that anyone's

1183
00:52:06,360 --> 00:52:06,880
Speaker 7: ever said.

1184
00:52:07,320 --> 00:52:08,920
Speaker 5: He wrote it out too, that.

1185
00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:16,959
Speaker 6: You're gonna be discussed, be disgusted for sure. I gotta

1186
00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:19,759

Speaker 4: they look like.

1191
00:52:29,360 --> 00:52:31,040
Speaker 5: On TV, you know what I mean.

1192
00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:33,200
Speaker 4: That's like I said, like whether it's he wants to

1193
00:52:33,239 --> 00:52:35,680
Speaker 4: be president or he wants to be Joe Rogan or whatever,

1194
