47
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 1: tweeted night. We got a bunch of stuff here on

48
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 1: the drop, as we always do. But I want to start,

49
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,799
Speaker 1: guys with some big news from this week. The Nate

50
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 1: Smith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame as it goes by,

51
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:45,559
Speaker 1: announced this week nine players and five coaches as finalists

52
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:49,360
Speaker 1: to be considered for election in twenty twenty one. This

53
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 1: year's list includes, among others, some WNBA stars and coaches,

54
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 1: but just the players. The NBA players we're looking at

55
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,799
Speaker 1: right here. Two time NBA champ, eleven time All Star

56
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 1: Chris Bosh. You got five time NBA Champion defensive as

57
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:06,400
Speaker 1: Michael Cooper. You got NBA Finals MVP and ten time

58
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 1: All Star Paul Pierce. You got five time All Star

59
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:14,400
Speaker 1: Tim Hardaway. You've got an iconic legend of the college game,

60
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:16,639
Speaker 1: and then a pretty damn good NBA player too. I

61
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:18,520
Speaker 1: believe five time All Star. Maybe this was a three.

62
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 1: Marquise Johnson got four time Defensive Player Theyear Ben Wallace

63
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: and five time NBA All Star Chris Weber. So those

64
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 1: ose it again, the NBA players up for the possibility

65
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 1: of being in trine. I think sometimes people see this list, guys,

66
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:31,839
Speaker 1: and they go oh, they're in the Hall of Fame.

67
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 1: It's weird and oddly right, but it's like, no, they're

68
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 1: just they made it to the final stage as a finalist.

69
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 2: The change the wording, I.

70
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 1: Sort of hate it too. But we'll go through these,

71
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 1: you know, sort of one by one, and let's just

72
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 1: start with Chris Bosh task and you can get it started.

73
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 1: Is he an absolute lock for the Hall of Fame

74
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 1: this year because it's his second year on the ballot.

75
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 1: He obviously didn't get in last year. What do you think.

76
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 2: Chris Bosh is a Hall of Famer. He's gotta make

77
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 2: it this year and this one. It kind of kind

78
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 2: of hits me right in the heart, you know, being

79
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 2: a Raptors fan being there since day one is one

80
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 2: of these guys that I was up close and personal

81
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 2: watching him from day one. I'm not sure if I

82
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 2: had tickets to Game one for him, but I was

83
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 2: there and he was a scrawny kid that obviously was

84
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 2: incredible offensively. He could take anybody off the bounce, even

85
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,159
Speaker 2: if he was, you know, six ten and six eleven.

86
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 2: He was quicker than other people. He got bigger, his

87
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 2: offensive game was polished. He was a twenty ten guy,

88
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 2: the defense was a question mark and then he became

89
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 2: an incredible defensive player that was able to be the

90
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:40,719
Speaker 2: key center on a championship team with the Miami Heat.

91
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 2: And I bring the Heat up because Eudonnas has him

92
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 2: this week said, you know, when this announcement was made, everybody,

93
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 2: he said, everybody mentions Lebron and Dwayne Wade when they

94
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 2: talk about the Miami Heat championships first, and then Chris

95
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 2: Bosh is third. But everybody in the locker room knows,

96
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,720
Speaker 2: according to Donna's has him, that Chris Bosh was the

97
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 2: key to that team. Now, obviously I don't they don't

98
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 2: win it with Lebron in Wade, but there's one of

99
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:07,039
Speaker 2: Bosh being, you know, a big who was able to

100
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 2: help out defensively, and there's you know, a couple of

101
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 2: Lebron in Wade. So I understand where Udonis Haslem is

102
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 2: going with. But he was great on both ends. He

103
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 2: took a back seat offensively to those guys, And I

104
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:19,600
Speaker 2: mentioned the defensive side of the ball because he was

105
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 2: great offensively, then he became everything he could be defensively.

106
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 2: So I kind of find it hard to believe that

107
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 2: he wouldn't get in. It just it just doesn't really

108
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 2: make sense to me. He was a perfect player on

109
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,839
Speaker 2: a championship team, as you know, a slight complimentary guy.

110
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 2: But don't you want the top two or three guys

111
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:38,840
Speaker 2: on a championship team in the Hall of Fame. I mean,

112
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,279
Speaker 2: it only makes sense. I guess the argument against him

113
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 2: is his career was too short. I mean's but that's

114
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,200
Speaker 2: a little crazy to me. There's lots of guys with

115
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:52,839
Speaker 2: lesser accomplishments and shorter careers than Chris Bosh. And Chris Bosh,

116
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:54,720
Speaker 2: you know, he didn't. He didn't fall out of the

117
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 2: league because he got fat or anything. I mean, he

118
00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 2: had a life threatening disease so he had to stop

119
00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 2: playing the game. He became Chris Bosh, like Ah Bosh

120
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 2: deserves to be standing making a speech up there. I

121
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 2: think he became the perfect basketball player for what he was.

122
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:14,839
Speaker 2: Everybody asked, get bigger, get better defensively. Chris Bosch answered

123
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,159
Speaker 2: all that, and he was awesome offensively. So I'm not

124
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 2: sure why he wouldn't get in, and I'm not sure

125
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:20,159
Speaker 2: why he wasn't in last year.

126
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,040
Speaker 1: I think the only reason he probably doesn't make it

127
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 1: last year is because the Hall of Fame just wanted

128
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 1: to keep it sort of iconic, I guess is the

129
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,279
Speaker 1: best way to put it. With the three NBA players

130
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 1: that were inducted right in Garnet, Duncan, and Kobe, So

131
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 1: they for whatever reason, thought, you know, is bosh on

132
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:38,600
Speaker 1: that level. No, I think we would all agree with that.

133
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:40,160
Speaker 1: So they're like, Okay, let's just leave it there and

134
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 1: push them back a year. I'm with you, I think

135
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 1: he gets in this year.

136
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,160
Speaker 2: That's so that's weird to me. What a class has

137
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 2: to be a certain kind of class, Like why he

138
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:48,479
Speaker 2: can think there's.

139
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 1: A whole lot of things weird about the Yeah, so yeah,

140
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 1: it doesn't surprise me if they thought that way. But

141
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,479
Speaker 1: I'm with you, Like, he's like nearly he's really close

142
00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 1: to like a twenty point per game score over his career,

143
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 1: which is pretty damn impressive. I think the one thing

144
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 1: that maybe people look at him lee and go and

145
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 1: it actually always shocks me because he's eleven time All Star,

146
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 1: that he only mean one All NBA team. It's just

147
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 1: it's just weird in a weird way. But I don't

148
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,080
Speaker 1: think that'll ultimately keep him out of the whole fam

149
00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 1: What do you think, Yeah.

150
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 3: Outside of the eleven All Star appearances, he really doesn't

151
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,920
Speaker 3: have any individual accolades there apart from that one second

152
00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 3: team back in two thousand and seven, like never Defensive

153
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 3: Player of the Year obviously, never really close to MVP

154
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 3: either or anything like that. Does that count against him?

155
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 3: Perhaps it does, because I think he is looked at

156
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 3: as the third wheel of those Heat Championships. But to me,

157
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 3: I believe he does belong in the Hall of Fame.

158
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 3: I think he had a fantastic career for what he

159
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 3: for what he played, and it was cut short, so

160
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 3: he missed out on a couple of years there to

161
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 3: sort of pat his numbers to get him in there.

162
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 3: But overall, I think he's done enough to get in.

163
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 3: And I think, you know, if you do watch those

164
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 3: those Heat Championships, do they win them without Chris Bosh? Perhaps?

165
00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 2: Oh, oh, you think?

166
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 3: I don't know. Maybe, I mean it's hard to know exactly.

167
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 3: But when he did come back against the Celtics in

168
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,560
Speaker 3: that I think it was that first championship season he

169
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 3: was really good because he missed a lot of the

170
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 3: playoffs then, so I think he gets in. I can

171
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 3: see a case for him not being in, but I

172
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 3: really don't think it's a strong case. I think he's

173
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 3: got a much stronger case of being in the Hall

174
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 3: of Fame, and I do ultimately think he gets in.

175
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 3: I guess yeah this year. I suppose. I mean, who

176
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 3: knows they can come back. Of course, like Weber and

177
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 3: Tim Hardaway, you do have a couple of other cracks

178
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 3: at it, but I think he probably gets in.

179
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 1: Trey, what do you think.

180
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 4: I think y'all nailed it. Chris Bosh is an easy

181
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 4: Hall of Famer, eleven time All Star that gets you

182
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 4: in right there. I think Basketball Reference has his probability

183
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:42,160
Speaker 4: at ninety nine percent. Skeets, I think you nailed it too.

184
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 4: The only reason he's not in already is because he

185
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:48,840
Speaker 4: came up for enshrinement last year with Kobe, Tim Duncan

186
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 4: and Kevin Garnett. I think that as Chris Bosh and

187
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 4: Paul Pierce, we're going to get to in just the

188
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:54,839
Speaker 4: second here are probably the two biggest names on the

189
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,600
Speaker 4: All Star ballot this year. So I think he's an

190
00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,040
Speaker 4: easy choice this season. And it's crazy to think that,

191
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,880
Speaker 4: like Tassa is saying when his career started, we're like,

192
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 4: get in the post, Chris Bosh, play some defense, Chris Bosh.

193
00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 4: As it turned out, playing on the perimeter and being

194
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 4: a defender who can switch amongst all positions is exactly

195
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,600
Speaker 4: what NBA big men should have been doing. Chris Bosh.

196
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 4: Despite being an eleven time All Star and having a

197
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 4: Hall of Fame quality career, he would probably be even

198
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 4: better if he were able to be playing today if

199
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:26,280
Speaker 4: his career started in twenty thirteen as compared to two thousand.

200
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 4: Was he two thousand and three draft?

201
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:27,920
Speaker 2: What draft?

202
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 3: Yeah?

203
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, So if he were able to if he were

204
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 4: able to start ten years later, he would probably be

205
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,440
Speaker 4: a first ballot Hall of Famer easily, because you know,

206
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,440
Speaker 4: he's the exact exactly what you wanted from a big

207
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:41,959
Speaker 4: man in today's NBA. He was just doing it ten

208
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 4: years ahead of time.

209
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 1: And as our friend Irwin points out, I'll show it

210
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 1: here for everyone on the stream team, he should get

211
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 1: in for just being an All star, shooting star, sledging alone.

212
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 1: Chris Bosh. Yeah, I mean, he was like iconic in

213
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,360
Speaker 1: the event, So put him in there. Okay, we all

214
00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 1: think he's in, and he will ultimately get picked as

215
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 1: one of the official you know in Chinese into the

216
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame soon coming up here. But let's hear

217
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 1: from you guys with all of these, with all of these,

218
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 1: because I know that some people will say, nah, he

219
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 1: doesn't you know, like you're saying, like the you know,

220
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,840
Speaker 1: he's the third banana on a great team. You know,

221
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 1: he's in the East, Like are his numbers like that? Impressive?

222
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 1: People will do that, But I think you're a little

223
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 1: crazy not to have him in there. Okay, next one

224
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,120
Speaker 1: is Paul Pierce Lee you get us started with this one?

225
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 1: Is Paul Pierce a Hall of Fame lock here in

226
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:30,760
Speaker 1: his first go at it?

227
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:32,439
Speaker 3: Unfortunately he is?

228
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:34,680
Speaker 2: Yes, unfortunately. Yeah.

229
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 3: Look, I will just have a little disclaim. Not a

230
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 3: big Paul Piece fan, but I respect what he did

231
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,520
Speaker 3: for the Celtics and for the game because he won

232
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 3: a championship ultimately with Boston and he was the finals

233
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,640
Speaker 3: MVP that season as well, which I think does carry

234
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 3: some weight. Now we only got the one championship there,

235
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,679
Speaker 3: but he was a four time All NBA player, ten

236
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,960
Speaker 3: time All Star, and as I mentioned the thing, but

237
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:59,720
Speaker 3: he also twenty six thousand points, so he's getting in

238
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 3: alone on that, you know. But Paul Pierce. You know,

239
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 3: I think he's one of those guys that he was

240
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,800
Speaker 3: a bit controversial. Some people didn't like him, like me,

241
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 3: But I do absolutely respect his ability to continue to

242
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 3: perform at a high level for so long, and of

243
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:15,559
Speaker 3: course he killed the Raptors a couple of times, he

244
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:19,199
Speaker 3: had some big playoff moments. But yeah, he has the accolades,

245
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:21,960
Speaker 3: and I really can't see a case for why he

246
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 3: wouldn't get in. You know, is it this season? I mean, sure,

247
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 3: maybe maybe not, but I think he does ultimately get in.

248
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:31,760
Speaker 3: He had a very very good long career and getting

249
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 3: that championship in that finals MVP. If he didn't have those,

250
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:36,599
Speaker 3: he probably still gets in any way, simply because of

251
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 3: the points and the All NBA and the NBA All

252
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 3: Star accolades as well. But that really makes it hard

253
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 3: to keep him out, So he deserves it. Even if

254
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 3: he's not my favorite player of all time, he's in

255
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:48,839
Speaker 3: for sure.

256
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:50,080
Speaker 1: Task do you agree?

257
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:52,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I totally agree on our accounts. I guess the

258
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:54,959
Speaker 2: only reason why he wouldn't get in is because he's

259
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 2: some people's not favorite player, because he's down on some

260
00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 2: people's list. But yeah, all the accolades are there. I

261
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 2: guess the question everyone brings up because he had such

262
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:08,239
Speaker 2: a long run of not going deep into the playoffs

263
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 2: before Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen got there. Everyone questions, well,

264
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 2: if those other guys aren't there, he doesn't win the

265
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:17,960
Speaker 2: championship and maybe he's just not that good. Well, like

266
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,560
Speaker 2: Tracy McGrady didn't get anywhere close either, but he was

267
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:23,040
Speaker 2: a great player. He's in the Hall of Fame. Paul

268
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 2: Pierce did a lot more than Tracey McGrady did in

269
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 2: terms of long jevity, in terms of points scored, So

270
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 2: you know, I kind of liken it to that because

271
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 2: everybody out there just wants to bring Paul Pierce down,

272
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 2: you know, and twenty six thousand points.

273
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 3: He makes it easy. Though it doesn't he makes it

274
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 3: easy to.

275
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:41,840
Speaker 2: Not like him. And I mean his post playing career

276
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:43,960
Speaker 2: on the on the desk has nothing to do with

277
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,440
Speaker 2: what he did on the on the floor. If you

278
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:50,400
Speaker 2: don't like his his style with the shades on ESPN's desk.

279
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,320
Speaker 3: I mean, I just mean in general, just like he

280
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,840
Speaker 3: because he wanted out of Boston, he said trade me,

281
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,560
Speaker 3: and then instead Danny Ainge got Kevin Garnett in rayl

282
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 3: and then he said, oh, Celtic foral, you know, kissing

283
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:02,080
Speaker 3: the leprecha on on the center court.

284
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know, I know, it's upset. Michael Jordan was

285
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:08,120
Speaker 4: almost a nick.

286
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know. I'm just saying though, like those are

287
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 3: the sorts of things that I you know, that annoyed

288
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:15,640
Speaker 3: me about him is how he was like, I'm done,

289
00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:17,440
Speaker 3: I'm out of Boston and then he's like, no, a

290
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 3: Celtic for life. And then he ends up on the

291
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:21,680
Speaker 3: Wizards and the Nets and the Clippers in the end. Anyway,

292
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:25,200
Speaker 3: but again that that's just a personal feeling towards the guy.

293
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 3: I respect his basketball game and the accolades and the achievements.

294
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,440
Speaker 3: I mean, there's no question and what you talking about

295
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 3: there tasks, you know, like not really going too far

296
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,840
Speaker 3: in the place before those other guys came along. Certainly

297
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:40,240
Speaker 3: by winning that Finals MVP sort of makes up for

298
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 3: the rest of that if you ask me. You know,

299
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,320
Speaker 3: Dirk only won the one championship and he got Finals MVP.

300
00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:48,120
Speaker 3: You know, similar sort of career and in ways. But

301
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,920
Speaker 3: once you get that and you have that sort of validation,

302
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 3: not that you necessarily need it, I think it's it's

303
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:55,599
Speaker 3: hard to keep a guy like that out of the

304
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 3: Hall of Fame.

305
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 1: Trey, you're agreeing, I think with Pop Heerce being a

306
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:00,240
Speaker 1: first ballot, I guess.

307
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,480
Speaker 4: Oh, no doubt. I think this is a super easy choice.

308
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 4: I think that if you take away the finals MVP

309
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 4: and the championship, he's an easy Hall of Famer. But

310
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 4: the fact that he has a championship and he has

311
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 4: it with the Celtics and he was the finals MVP,

312
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:15,200
Speaker 4: he's the biggest lock in this class. To me, he's

313
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 4: going to be the guy giving the last speech of

314
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 4: the night because Paul Pierce is one of the greatest

315
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 4: players in history for one of the most famous franchises

316
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:25,840
Speaker 4: in history, the Boston media Mafia is going to be

317
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,120
Speaker 4: backing in hardcore here, and he's an easy Hall of Famer.

318
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 4: You win a finals MVP, you're pretty much going to

319
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 4: be getting in. I think the Celtics are the only

320
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 4: team that has a finals MVP that's not a Hall

321
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:38,880
Speaker 4: of Famer, right, Cedric Maxwell, If I'm not mistaking, yeah,

322
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 4: that's right. But I mean Paul Pierce is this is

323
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 4: an easy Hall of Fame choice here, and he played

324
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 4: it pretty smart by sticking around a little bit longer.

325
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:47,920
Speaker 4: He played that last season with the Clippers. Remember he

326
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 4: got his jersey retired there by the Celtics. That was

327
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 4: a big That was a big deal at the time.

328
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:57,400
Speaker 4: But he's stuck around for another year when he wasn't

329
00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,640
Speaker 4: doing a whole bunch there for the Clippers. But now

330
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 4: he gets to be the head of the class. Smart thinking.

331
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he still ranks top ten and free

332
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:08,440
Speaker 1: throws made and three pointers made, which is pretty well.

333
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 1: But I guess, yeah, you get to twenty six thousand points,

334
00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 1: you got to get him every different way. He's top

335
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,120
Speaker 1: twenty all time in scoring, and he played for nearly

336
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,320
Speaker 1: two decades, which is pretty credible. Okay, so we for

337
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:19,560
Speaker 1: the most part agreed, Yeah, Bosh is in here in

338
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:21,560
Speaker 1: his second go at. It sounds like Paul Pierce. We

339
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:23,840
Speaker 1: all agree. As a first ballot Hall of Famer, traceays

340
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 1: will be the last speech of the night. Hadn't thought

341
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 1: about that, but I think you're probably right with that one.

342
00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 1: But this one is where it gets a little interesting,

343
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 1: and Trey will start with you. Is this the year

344
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 1: Chris Webber finally makes the Hall of Fame. I don't

345
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:41,600
Speaker 1: know how many times we've maybe had this discussion. It's

346
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 1: got to be at least three, right, maybe Mooreeah, But

347
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 1: what do you think, does Sea web finally get in

348
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 1: or does he not deserve to be in the Hall of Fame?

349
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:50,120
Speaker 1: What do you think?

350
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,440
Speaker 4: I've always thought Chris Weber was going to be a

351
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,400
Speaker 4: Hall of Famer, and I'm surprised he's not already in.

352
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:58,840
Speaker 4: But maybe with the names that are in this class

353
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 4: alongside Chris, this has got to be the year for him,

354
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,440
Speaker 4: because I mean, when you're talking about the anals of

355
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 4: basketball history, you got Chris Webber up there, I think

356
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 4: with Chris Bosh and Paul Pierce. You know, Chris Webber

357
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,640
Speaker 4: probably most famous still for his time playing with the

358
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,760
Speaker 4: Michigan Wolverines, part of the Fab Five. Really changed the

359
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 4: culture of basketball, and that, to me is a part

360
00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 4: of the reason why he has to be in. But

361
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 4: it's always going to be close with Chris Webber because

362
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 4: he missed a bunch of time during his NBA career,

363
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 4: which keeps him from getting to twenty thousand points, keeps

364
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:30,520
Speaker 4: him to get from getting to ten thousand rebounds, sort

365
00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:32,640
Speaker 4: of benchmarks that really get you into the Hall of

366
00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 4: Fame pretty easily. Because for accomplishments wise, he was five

367
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:39,000
Speaker 4: times All NBA, five times All Star, which are great.

368
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,840
Speaker 4: That's a very good career. But there are a lot

369
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:45,520
Speaker 4: of players, as we've discussed recently with Sean Kemp, Omari Staudemeyer,

370
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 4: Blake Griffin in the future, who have made five All

371
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,720
Speaker 4: NBA teams, five All Star games and are not in

372
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 4: the NBA or not in the Nasmath Hall of Fame

373
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 4: right now. But still, Chris Webber is top one hundred

374
00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 4: points per game for his career, top one hundred rebounds

375
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 4: per game all time. It's just the fact that he

376
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:03,280
Speaker 4: missed quite a few games in his career that he

377
00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 4: wasn't able to get to those round numbers that were

378
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 4: used to for me. Chris Webber, no doubt a Hall

379
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:10,639
Speaker 4: of Famer, But when you look at the counting stats,

380
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 4: when you look at the career achievements, you can see

381
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:16,399
Speaker 4: why Basketball Reference their probability has him met like fifteen percent,

382
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:18,960
Speaker 4: which I think is crazy low, but I feel like

383
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 4: that probably just only takes into account his NBA career

384
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 4: and his statistics, but still I would think it's higher.

385
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,000
Speaker 4: Everybody loved Chris Webber when he was playing. There was

386
00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:29,199
Speaker 4: certainly a feeling at some times that he left a

387
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,960
Speaker 4: little bit on the table, which maybe leaves a sour

388
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 4: taste in some voters' mouths. But I'm a Chris Webber

389
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:36,960
Speaker 4: Hall of Fame believer. Maybe this is the year.

390
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:39,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you're right. I think some of the

391
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 1: voters we still don't even really know who ultimately decides

392
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:45,080
Speaker 1: these things. It's like just these mysterious people out there,

393
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 1: but that they might hold over Chris Webber the fact that,

394
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:51,919
Speaker 1: like because of the talent that he had, they're upset

395
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:53,840
Speaker 1: that he's like not a top ten player of all time.

396
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:56,200
Speaker 1: Sure because his career did not you know, pan out

397
00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:59,000
Speaker 1: that way. It was still an unbelievable career, especially yeah,

398
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 1: when you're going back to the college game. But maybe

399
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:03,960
Speaker 1: they are task maybe there is something to that that

400
00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,480
Speaker 1: that's why they've sort of kept him out ultimately. I guess,

401
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:07,960
Speaker 1: you know, he rubbed a lot of people the wrong

402
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,639
Speaker 1: way too over his career, so you know, maybe some

403
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:15,360
Speaker 1: reporters and organizations and maybe that's another issue. But I mean,

404
00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:20,440
Speaker 1: just pure talent alone, he feels, and with the individual accolades, yeah,

405
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 1: there's no ring, but he sure is sort of right

406
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:25,639
Speaker 1: there with a Chris blosh. To me, I mean like

407
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:27,400
Speaker 1: he was playing in a time too where we're talking

408
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,119
Speaker 1: like about some of the greatest players ever at the

409
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,560
Speaker 1: position in the Western Conference and he's still making All

410
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,080
Speaker 1: NBA squads and stuff like that. That's pretty special in

411
00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:36,680
Speaker 1: my book. So I think he's in. I think you've

412
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:38,800
Speaker 1: talked about him being in before and I can't imagine

413
00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:39,719
Speaker 1: you changed your tune on that.

414
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:43,880
Speaker 2: No, my tune just gets stronger as I get older. Yeah,

415
00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,159
Speaker 2: he played with a lot of great players, up against

416
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:48,919
Speaker 2: a lot of great players, and he's probably, you know,

417
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 2: not on the level of some of those guys he

418
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:54,399
Speaker 2: went up against in the Duncans and the Shacks, but

419
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:58,280
Speaker 2: that doesn't mean he's any worse. He just doesn't have

420
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:00,600
Speaker 2: those accolades. And yeah, he I'm sure people just look

421
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,399
Speaker 2: at him and see and some see all this talent.

422
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:05,840
Speaker 2: He could have been frankly one of the best power

423
00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:09,879
Speaker 2: forwards ever and didn't get to that level. But to me,

424
00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:12,359
Speaker 2: it's a little bit of the Allen Iverson effect. He

425
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 2: had such a cultural impact, just like AI with those

426
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:18,960
Speaker 2: Michigan teams, and then he had a really, really, really

427
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 2: good NBA career and you know, the whole Lakers situation

428
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 2: there with the you know, the conference finals and the

429
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:31,399
Speaker 2: Kings and maybe the timeout or probably the two things

430
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:34,480
Speaker 2: in terms of actual basketball things that people remember him by,

431
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 2: which obviously isn't a good sign for Seaweb. But the

432
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:40,720
Speaker 2: guy has all the talent oozing from his body. But

433
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 2: that doesn't just that doesn't get you into the Hall

434
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:44,520
Speaker 2: of Fame. What gets him into the Hall of Fame

435
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:48,919
Speaker 2: are the accolades, the cultural relevance, and how he was

436
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,399
Speaker 2: a badass. I mean, I loved watching him play, so

437
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 2: I understand that he's not, like you said, Skeets, you know,

438
00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 2: throw him into the Chris Bosh family. I guess the

439
00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:01,159
Speaker 2: players of that aren't like super duper duper stars that

440
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,840
Speaker 2: took over the league. But the cultural relevance, to me,

441
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 2: puts him over the top. There just aren't a lot

442
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:08,199
Speaker 2: of guys who have that in the league. And if

443
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:11,440
Speaker 2: you're a great, great player and you had this cultural relevance,

444
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:13,920
Speaker 2: you know, our friend Gred Gordian brought it up recently

445
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,000
Speaker 2: that you can't tell the story of basketball without the

446
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:19,120
Speaker 2: Michigan Wolverines, the Fab Five, and that's part of it.

447
00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:23,199
Speaker 2: As part of basketball history, it's not just stats. It

448
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:26,320
Speaker 2: is story time, and story time when you're talking about

449
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 2: basketball in the early nineties are the Michigan Wolverines and

450
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 2: the Fab five and Chris Webber was the lead guy

451
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,679
Speaker 2: on that team and then he had a great, great career.

452
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:35,720
Speaker 2: Get him in there.

453
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was a great Twitter thread Twitter thread from

454
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 1: our friend Greden Gordian one hundred percent agreed with it too.

455
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:43,360
Speaker 1: Like at one point he's talking about like if you're

456
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 1: walking through the Hall of Fame with your kid and

457
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,600
Speaker 1: you got to Weber's plaque, would your first thought be, well,

458
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 1: he shouldn't be here. No, I mean no, of course,

459
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 1: not like you said, you would be talking about the

460
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,360
Speaker 1: Fab five, with the talent that he had at his position,

461
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:57,520
Speaker 1: sort of ahead of the game, a little bite where

462
00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 1: he came up short in moments and stuff like that.

463
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:02,920
Speaker 1: Like he does help get across the story of the

464
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:06,200
Speaker 1: NBA and basketball in general. He needs to be included

465
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:07,919
Speaker 1: in that conversation. If that's how you want to look

466
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 1: at the Hall of Fame. It doesn't just have to

467
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:13,320
Speaker 1: be stats. Though some people think the Basketball Hall of Fame,

468
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 1: you know, is too generous with who they allow in

469
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:18,360
Speaker 1: there and that's sure. That's an argument maybe for another day.

470
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,960
Speaker 1: But I think, you know, I think lee that he

471
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 1: should be included. I don't know where you fall on

472
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:25,840
Speaker 1: this one. You know, does if he wins a title

473
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:27,720
Speaker 1: in two thousand and two the Kings, then is this

474
00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:31,119
Speaker 1: is probably a lock right easy? But he doesn't have that.

475
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:32,679
Speaker 1: So do you put him in or it you keep

476
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 1: him out?

477
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:35,679
Speaker 3: Yeah? I think so. And as Trey mentioned there, he

478
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:38,639
Speaker 3: has like his averages are basically twenty and ten, but

479
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 3: he doesn't have those round twenty thousand points and ten

480
00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:44,120
Speaker 3: thousand rebounds, which would also just boost him in there.

481
00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:46,439
Speaker 3: But I think he gets in. I mean, I think

482
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:48,480
Speaker 3: he's a better player than Chris Bosh was at his best,

483
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 3: you know, right, So in that sense, Weber deserves to

484
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 3: be in. But I think certainly things that do count

485
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:56,360
Speaker 3: against him at the scandal there at Michigan. I think,

486
00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,400
Speaker 3: for whatever reason, people are holding that against him when

487
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:01,400
Speaker 3: they shouldn't because it's not like he was the only

488
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 3: person who had any sort of controversy during his college

489
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 3: career and then he went out there and performed. But yeah,

490
00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:09,920
Speaker 3: if Ladi doesn't hit that ball out or of Robert

491
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:13,400
Speaker 3: Urie misses that shot and the Lakers lose that series,

492
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:15,920
Speaker 3: I think, because I think the Kings win that championship

493
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,879
Speaker 3: if they're going up against the Nets. It was in

494
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:21,719
Speaker 3: two thousand and two, and Weber's probably finals MVP as well,

495
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:23,919
Speaker 3: so he's probably exactly where we are with Paul Pierce

496
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,800
Speaker 3: and Dirk and those guys. He gets that championship, even

497
00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:30,200
Speaker 3: if his career didn't quite get to where we thought

498
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,280
Speaker 3: his talent was going to take him, like you said earlier,

499
00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:34,760
Speaker 3: maybe top ten, top fifteen of all time. But if

500
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:38,880
Speaker 3: you have that sort of championship glory, very very hard

501
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 3: to keep him out, but he doesn't. So I think

502
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 3: that's also potentially some of the reason. A little hard

503
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 3: to figure out though, because at his best, you know,

504
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:48,320
Speaker 3: an incredible passer for a big man, he could spread

505
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:51,360
Speaker 3: the flora a little bit there, you know, just an

506
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:54,720
Speaker 3: incredible talent, but has a couple of things that people,

507
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:56,399
Speaker 3: I guess are able to sort of hold against him,

508
00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:57,720
Speaker 3: which is unfair really.

509
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:00,960
Speaker 1: All right, and let's get to the four remaining NBA

510
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:03,320
Speaker 1: players that are the Hall of Fame finalists and which

511
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:06,400
Speaker 1: one of these guys will get enshrined here, So I'll

512
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 1: just run through them. Again, we got Michael Cooper, former

513
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:11,960
Speaker 1: Defensive Player of the Year. He made eight All Defensive teams,

514
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,919
Speaker 1: won five championships as a member of the Lakers. Obviously

515
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:18,160
Speaker 1: played on a great team. Now, his career averages are

516
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 1: not going to blow you away, because he was a

517
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:23,240
Speaker 1: defensive eightce really nine points per game, you know, four

518
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:26,400
Speaker 1: and three. And we had Tim Hardaway, member of run

519
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:29,880
Speaker 1: TMC the Warriors, top twenty all time and assists still

520
00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,240
Speaker 1: in NBA history, five time All Star, five time All NBA.

521
00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 1: That actually surprised me a little bit. Career averages of

522
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:36,960
Speaker 1: eighteen and eight. Won a gold medal in two thousand.

523
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:41,359
Speaker 1: Marquise Johnson won two national championships at UCLA. He was

524
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 1: one of the best collegiate players of his time there,

525
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:45,959
Speaker 1: went on to make five All Star teams with the Bucks.

526
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 1: A bit of a forgotten star, I think, I mean,

527
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:50,680
Speaker 1: like Lee, maybe you can remember Marquise Johnson a little

528
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 1: bit better than maybe even some of us being a

529
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 1: bit older. Yeah, but again he's got the accolades. Averaged

530
00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:58,359
Speaker 1: over twenty points per game over his career two He

531
00:23:58,359 --> 00:23:59,760
Speaker 1: was named the Comeback Player of the Year in eighty

532
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,080
Speaker 1: six and then Ben Wallace one of only two players

533
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,760
Speaker 1: to win the NBA's Defensive Player of the Award four times,

534
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 1: along with the Kenny Mtumbo, who is obviously in the

535
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:09,320
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame, and he would be the first member

536
00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:12,480
Speaker 1: of the four Pistons to be selected four time All Star,

537
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 1: five time All NBA of those four, like, look, let's

538
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,239
Speaker 1: be honest, not all seven guys we've talked about here

539
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,520
Speaker 1: are going to be making at least this class. I

540
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 1: don't know when they're gonna cut it off. I don't

541
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:25,920
Speaker 1: know if they have a quota task, like if they're like,

542
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 1: well it's got to be three, but not more than five.

543
00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:31,119
Speaker 1: I don't know. But let's say only one more of

544
00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:35,080
Speaker 1: those these guys, these last four I selected could make it, Lee,

545
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 1: who would you pick if we are agreeing, Chris bosh

546
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:40,919
Speaker 1: is in, Paul Pierce's in, and Chris Webber finally makes it.

547
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:45,159
Speaker 1: Of these four, Coop you know, Tim Hardaway, Markis Johnson,

548
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,919
Speaker 1: and then Ben Wallace, who would you include me?

549
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 3: I'm going with I think they've all got a solid case.

550
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:53,479
Speaker 3: I'm going with Ben Wallace, Thuge. I think Ben Wallace

551
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:57,280
Speaker 3: was an incredible player and the defensive stats alone there

552
00:24:57,359 --> 00:24:59,840
Speaker 3: full time defensive player of the four time All Star,

553
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:05,280
Speaker 3: five time All NBA, five time All Defense, so you know,

554
00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:09,359
Speaker 3: traditionally defensive guys obviously, like Ben Wallace's career average is

555
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:11,119
Speaker 3: like five points a game, you know, so he's not

556
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:13,000
Speaker 3: going to get in there for his points. But he

557
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:16,040
Speaker 3: had about six seasons there where I think he was

558
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:20,480
Speaker 3: just an incredible, incredible player for the Pistons. His career

559
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:22,240
Speaker 3: did sort of tail off a little bit after his

560
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:24,959
Speaker 3: second season in Chicago when he wasn't allowed to wear

561
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,920
Speaker 3: a head band, got his scars said no wearing a headband.

562
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:30,639
Speaker 3: But for those like JB doesn't want you wearing ahead.

563
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 3: It's got five or six seasons there with the Pistons

564
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,359
Speaker 3: and the first one with Chicago, he average eight points,

565
00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:41,639
Speaker 3: thirteen rebounds, as steel and a half a game, three

566
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:44,760
Speaker 3: blocks a game, you know. And again I think on

567
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,320
Speaker 3: those Pistons teams with only won one championship, made the

568
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,800
Speaker 3: finals the second time, I think he was easily as

569
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:53,320
Speaker 3: important as any other player, you know, with Rip Hamilton,

570
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:56,200
Speaker 3: Rashid obviously when he came along, Jaunty Builds won finals,

571
00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:59,360
Speaker 3: MVP when they won it. But I'm a huge Ben

572
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:01,960
Speaker 3: Wallace fan, and I think he absolutely deserves to get in,

573
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:05,560
Speaker 3: even if his Pig years were only about you know,

574
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:07,680
Speaker 3: six or seven seasons there. But I think he did

575
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,760
Speaker 3: enough in those years to get himself in. I mean, clearly,

576
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 3: the defensive Player of the Year awards I think should

577
00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:16,119
Speaker 3: get him in there alone four times. So you know,

578
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:19,040
Speaker 3: other guys have certainly strong cases, but I'd pick Ben Wallace.

579
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,679
Speaker 3: I'd like to see the defensive player get the recognition.

580
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 1: Tass, what do you think?

581
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:25,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with Lee on this one, And I think

582
00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 2: Dennis Rodman blazed enough of a trail getting into the

583
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:30,760
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame for Ben Wallace to follow him, not

584
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:33,800
Speaker 2: just the rebounding trail, but just more like the one

585
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:38,320
Speaker 2: track type of guy. Rodman rebounded Ben Wallas defense offensively.

586
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:41,439
Speaker 2: That was not his fortepe whatsoever. But yeah, you know,

587
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:46,200
Speaker 2: if you look at that twenty four team, billups is Key,

588
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:50,359
Speaker 2: Rip is Key and sheet is Key at Tayshaw Prince

589
00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:53,040
Speaker 2: is Key. But there's no chance that they come anywhere

590
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,520
Speaker 2: close to a championship without the defense of Ben Wallace,

591
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 2: without the Tennats.

592
00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:58,120
Speaker 1: Such an identity for that team.

593
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and they all were part of it, no doubt,

594
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 2: And they didn't have a superstar. So when I say

595
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 2: this guy, they don't win. To this guy, they don't

596
00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,399
Speaker 2: win this guy, they needed all of them because that was,

597
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:10,399
Speaker 2: you know, a special special case in the NBA. I

598
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:12,720
Speaker 2: think we've talked about it before. It should be one

599
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:14,800
Speaker 2: team that gets in as a team if they start

600
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,160
Speaker 2: a wing. I mean to me, that's you know, one

601
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 2: of the best teams ever because they didn't have a

602
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,080
Speaker 2: superstar and we're able to achieve what they achieved. So

603
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:25,880
Speaker 2: big Ben amongst those four, you know, well, I want

604
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,040
Speaker 2: to show some love to other guys too, but yeah,

605
00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 2: amongst those four, he would be the guy who stands

606
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:31,960
Speaker 2: up to me.

607
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:34,040
Speaker 1: Do you agree, Tray or do you pick someone else?

608
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:35,480
Speaker 1: If you had to just pick one of the four?

609
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 4: Well, unfortunately, Skeets, I also agree because I love defense

610
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:41,320
Speaker 4: and rebounding, so you got to get Ben Wallace in there.

611
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:43,840
Speaker 4: But for me, he was the best player on a

612
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,840
Speaker 4: championship team who took down a couple of legends Shaq

613
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,720
Speaker 4: and Kobe in their prime. So that's an easy choice

614
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,720
Speaker 4: to me. The other guys, Michael Cooper, I think has

615
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,560
Speaker 4: kind of a similar case to Ben Wallace. The problem

616
00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:57,240
Speaker 4: with him is that he has been on the ballot

617
00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:59,080
Speaker 4: clearly for a long time, so I think it gets

618
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:01,840
Speaker 4: harder and harder as the time goes on. Marquise Johnson,

619
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:04,080
Speaker 4: I'm kind of surprised, isn't in considering he had such

620
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 4: a great college career, a very good NBA career and

621
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:09,520
Speaker 4: has continued to stick in the league as a broadcaster

622
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 4: there with the Bucks and Tim Hardaway a borderline case,

623
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:18,280
Speaker 4: I'll say, a borderline case for Tim Hardaway, and you know,

624
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 4: maybe this is the year, but I kind of don't

625
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:20,840
Speaker 4: think so.

626
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you're right there. I don't think he

627
00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:25,159
Speaker 1: makes it in this one for sure. I'm picking up

628
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:27,439
Speaker 1: these four. I go Ben Wallace, Michael Cooper. I mean

629
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:30,080
Speaker 1: I heard a lot of comparisons, like, well, Dennis Johnson

630
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:32,919
Speaker 1: made the Hall of Fame obviously being sort of like

631
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:37,080
Speaker 1: the defensive guy on those great Celtics teams. Cooper the

632
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:38,840
Speaker 1: same thing with the Lakers. They both won a lot

633
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 1: of titles. Dennis Johnson still, though, is a better offensive

634
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 1: player than Cooper. I mean, he scored like almost I

635
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 1: think he may have scored twice as many points like

636
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 1: over their career and doubled them up there. So that

637
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,200
Speaker 1: is something. But I get the idea, it's like they

638
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 1: were the defensive backbone of these championship teams and should

639
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:57,200
Speaker 1: they be rewarded enough to the Hall of Fame level.

640
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:00,560
Speaker 1: It's difficult because then you start also so just getting

641
00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 1: into the you know, the classic Robert Rory question Lee

642
00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:06,280
Speaker 1: and stuff like that. Guys just won a bunch of

643
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:09,160
Speaker 1: titles and were good, but they were not the best

644
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:10,680
Speaker 1: of the best out there on the floor. But do

645
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,640
Speaker 1: they deserve consideration of the Hall of Fame? It opens

646
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:15,600
Speaker 1: up a whole can of worms. But of all those guys,

647
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:18,280
Speaker 1: I'm agreeing with you. I think I think Ben Wallace

648
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 1: would get my vote from those guys. But who else

649
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 1: did you want to show love to? There? Tasks?

650
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,000
Speaker 2: Well, I was trying to bide my time here because

651
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:27,760
Speaker 2: I didn't have the video prepared, so I was trying

652
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 2: to stall. But Markus Johnson, he had some a weggie,

653
00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:34,440
Speaker 2: a legendary weggie of some sort. And I've just because

654
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:37,040
Speaker 2: I forget everything that I've ever done in my life.

655
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,360
Speaker 2: And it didn't happen too long ago where Josiah Johnson,

656
00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:44,200
Speaker 2: the King of Twitter, was tweeting about Marcus Johnson's career

657
00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:46,480
Speaker 2: and trying to get him into the Hall of Fame

658
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 2: or showing everybody why he deserves to be in the

659
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,040
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame. And one of the clips he shared

660
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:54,560
Speaker 2: was Markus Johnson weggieing, I don't know, but I'm still

661
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:57,719
Speaker 2: can't find it, still looking. You know, Twitter is just

662
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,200
Speaker 2: one of those things I do I search for or

663
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:04,680
Speaker 2: doing my scrolling through tough infinite scroll here. That's where

664
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:07,800
Speaker 2: I'm going right now. But I figured I figured Marcus

665
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:12,360
Speaker 2: Johnson my best my best chance of finding it would

666
00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:15,920
Speaker 2: be scrolling his infinite his Twitter, because you know, he's older,

667
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:17,600
Speaker 2: He's not going to tweet as much as just I'm

668
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:18,960
Speaker 2: not going to tweet as much as me. I know

669
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 2: the three of us tweeted about it, but I still

670
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:23,680
Speaker 2: I just suck at finding things on Twitter at times

671
00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 2: and unable to find it. But he had some some

672
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:29,480
Speaker 2: legendary Weggie was it? It wasn't the All Star Game one. Anyway.

673
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,880
Speaker 2: I love him on the broadcast, I love his son,

674
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:36,000
Speaker 2: and uh, you know, if he gets in, he gets in.

675
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:39,520
Speaker 2: But you know, I find it hard to believe against

676
00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 2: those other guys that he he is going to get in,

677
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:44,760
Speaker 2: but maybe as a broadcast or maybe gets in as

678
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:45,560
Speaker 2: a broadcast.

679
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:47,560
Speaker 1: Jaz Well, that's the whole. Yeah, you got all these

680
00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:50,480
Speaker 1: different wings. You know, Bill Russell's up for you know

681
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:53,200
Speaker 1: him in here again. I mean as a coach, that's

682
00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:56,680
Speaker 1: pretty cool. But someone I think, uh was it Jackie

683
00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:59,560
Speaker 1: McMullin or someone pointed out that, uh isn't Lenny Wilkins

684
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:01,320
Speaker 1: in like three times in the Hall of Fame. He's

685
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 1: a player, coach and part of the dream team as

686
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 1: you're right, yeah, coach. So it's like it's a little silly,

687
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,600
Speaker 1: I guess. But anyway, we'll see what happens. We'll be

688
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:13,200
Speaker 1: announcing this soon. We still even haven't had the actual

689
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:16,600
Speaker 1: formal enshrinment for those three legends that we were talking

690
00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:19,280
Speaker 1: about last year, beating Kobe and Garnet and Duncan. I

691
00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:21,920
Speaker 1: think that's coming up, so that will be, uh, of course,

692
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:23,960
Speaker 1: pretty monumental. But a lot of people to put in.

693
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,240
Speaker 1: Let's hear from all of you guys who should be

694
00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:29,440
Speaker 1: in the Hall of Fame. Make your case. Maybe there's

695
00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:32,760
Speaker 1: some diehard tim Hardaway fans out there. I know there's

696
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,480
Speaker 1: some Cooper fans out there, so tell us why they

697
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:39,080
Speaker 1: should be actual locks, and maybe it is all seven.

698
00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:41,160
Speaker 1: Just throw them all in. I mean, we're just gonna

699
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:43,080
Speaker 1: be like this. Yeah, it's so inclusive now, I mean,

700
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 1: why not? I guess. Okay, last night's games, let's just

701
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 1: touch on a couple. There was a ton on for

702
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:49,400
Speaker 1: a Thursday night. But Kyrie Irving scored forty as the

703
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:51,280
Speaker 1: Nets beat the Celtics one twenty one, one oh nine.

704
00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:54,320
Speaker 1: Kyrie Irving, future Hall of Famer, tasks and lock it in? Yeah,

705
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:56,200
Speaker 1: lock it in? What'd you think of this one?

706
00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:58,880
Speaker 2: Though? You know, a couple of years ago, even though

707
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:01,720
Speaker 2: Kyrie hit that shot, wonder about Kyrie's Hall of Fame chances.

708
00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:04,400
Speaker 2: But now he's having the best season of his career,

709
00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:07,719
Speaker 2: which is awesome to watch. I know you called him

710
00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:11,320
Speaker 2: the Nets MVP Skeets. I just watching him. It feels

711
00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 2: like every SHOT's going in. He's shooting the best field

712
00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:15,680
Speaker 2: goal percentage of his career, best three point percentage of

713
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,040
Speaker 2: his career. But to me, what I took from this

714
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 2: game is that I don't think the chemistry that they've

715
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:25,120
Speaker 2: got going on is going to be interrupted by Blake

716
00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 2: Griffin whatsoever. I just just feel like they've got enough

717
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:33,240
Speaker 2: going on in a positive way. From Steve Nash down

718
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:36,200
Speaker 2: to Kevin Durant, who I think is their real leader

719
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,240
Speaker 2: and the real glue guy, which is strange to say

720
00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:41,520
Speaker 2: for Kevin Durant, but I totally think that's the case

721
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 2: all the way down, you know, to Kyrie, to James

722
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:45,760
Speaker 2: Harden and even to Blake even though he hasn't hit

723
00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 2: the floor. I'm just dreaming big dreams here. I think

724
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:51,800
Speaker 2: that they're they're gonna get on the floor and just

725
00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:55,200
Speaker 2: work together. Well, that's what I took from this win

726
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:57,480
Speaker 2: because I think they can just turn it on at

727
00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:02,240
Speaker 2: any time and it really, Uh, nobody has a chance

728
00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:04,960
Speaker 2: against this team in the Eastern Conference. I think they know.

729
00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:05,840
Speaker 2: I don't know.

730
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:06,240
Speaker 1: I agree.

731
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:10,440
Speaker 2: I know I'm being I'm jumping to conclusions. There's lots

732
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:12,640
Speaker 2: of good teams in the East, but I think they

733
00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:16,600
Speaker 2: are They're good enough, Like if they can just stay

734
00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:18,240
Speaker 2: on the same page, I think that's all it's about.

735
00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:20,720
Speaker 2: I just you know, we just talked about the Detroit

736
00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:24,120
Speaker 2: Pistons and the chemistry that they had. That's that's what

737
00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:26,000
Speaker 2: the question mark is with the Brooklyn Nets. Or there's

738
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 2: just too many good guys and not enough role guys.

739
00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:30,959
Speaker 2: Like if Blake Griffin comes in and is that that

740
00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:34,200
Speaker 2: guy on the floor who you know doesn't do enough

741
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:36,800
Speaker 2: of the little things and plays too much, and then

742
00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:39,120
Speaker 2: you know, you lose some some Bruce Brown minutes, some

743
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:42,520
Speaker 2: Jeff Green minutes that could hurt. But I think they're

744
00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:46,000
Speaker 2: I don't know, they just the chemistry just feels like

745
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:48,000
Speaker 2: it's there. It wasn't really much of a tangible thing

746
00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:50,240
Speaker 2: I took away from that game. But in the fourth quarter,

747
00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:54,880
Speaker 2: when they can go on those runs like they did,

748
00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 2: they can overcome a lot of things, and I think

749
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:00,680
Speaker 2: they'll they'll overcome any team in the Eastern I think

750
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:02,440
Speaker 2: I think they've got enough, even though you know they

751
00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:05,959
Speaker 2: got to go up against Joel Embiid. I just I believe.

752
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,680
Speaker 2: I believe in what Steve Nash and what they're doing there.

753
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:12,200
Speaker 1: Good vibes only coming from the Brooklyn Nets. Leatey Shammitt

754
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:14,480
Speaker 1: was fantastic, hitting a bunch of threes for them too.

755
00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 3: But yeah, they.

756
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:18,640
Speaker 1: Uh, it's pretty special when you got three guys that

757
00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:20,600
Speaker 1: can go for forty on any given nights, and then

758
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:22,640
Speaker 1: you get all these help with all these shooters around there, Yeah,

759
00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:24,759
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to go through Embiad and Yannis likely

760
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:27,239
Speaker 1: one of them at least but you know, we talked

761
00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:29,600
Speaker 1: about it the other day, like who cares if those

762
00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:31,839
Speaker 1: guys average forty in a series, Like you're still you're

763
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:34,799
Speaker 1: still gotta go get another eighty from maybe the rest

764
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,480
Speaker 1: of the team. With the amount of offensive firepower that

765
00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:39,520
Speaker 1: the Nets have, Yeah, look looking good right now. And

766
00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:41,600
Speaker 1: this is it's crazy that all of this is without

767
00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:43,640
Speaker 1: Durant and then of course Blake still to be added,

768
00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:46,319
Speaker 1: and oh yeah, maybe even another bio guy, Like they

769
00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:49,920
Speaker 1: may not even be done adding to this roster. So

770
00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:51,839
Speaker 1: what are you anything to add from that game? Though?

771
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:54,160
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, you just mentioned that Jeff Green with two threes,

772
00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:56,680
Speaker 3: Tyler Jones with too, Shamitt hat six, and Joy Harris

773
00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:59,400
Speaker 3: he's a great shoot. He went three. So even if

774
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:02,319
Speaker 3: Joel and b it is a handful for the Nets defensively,

775
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:05,120
Speaker 3: it doesn't really matter if the sixers are just like,

776
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:07,000
Speaker 3: oh my god, every guy who's on the floor can

777
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:08,960
Speaker 3: hit a three pointer right now. That that's the real

778
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,600
Speaker 3: problem things are facing, is that that offense for the

779
00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,920
Speaker 3: Nets is just so potent and so powerful. It's such

780
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:17,359
Speaker 3: an arsenal that Steve Nash has, which is ironic because

781
00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:19,799
Speaker 3: he's a Tottenham fan and Arsenal is Tottenham's biggest rival.

782
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:20,200
Speaker 2: Wow.

783
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:24,600
Speaker 3: But that's the thing when you when you're when they're

784
00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:26,960
Speaker 3: on the floor, it's just like, oh my god, yeah shah, yeah,

785
00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:28,640
Speaker 3: he can hit that shot. And when he gets hot,

786
00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:30,480
Speaker 3: they sort of found him last night. James Harden had

787
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:33,880
Speaker 3: a relatively quiet game by his standards last night, certainly shooting.

788
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:35,920
Speaker 3: The boy's still finished with nearly a triple double. But

789
00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:38,560
Speaker 3: that's the thing. It's not like it's only Hardened and

790
00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:40,359
Speaker 3: Kyrie Irving that you have to worry about. They've They've

791
00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 3: got the system and that team set up so well

792
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:44,839
Speaker 3: that it's like, we are going to win these games

793
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:47,520
Speaker 3: on offense. You know, we can play defensive, we have to,

794
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:50,200
Speaker 3: but more importantly, the other teams have to stop so

795
00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:52,000
Speaker 3: many guys who are capable of shooting it.

796
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:55,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, the defense always been like basically average, which is

797
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:57,520
Speaker 1: good enough Trey for the last little bit, and they

798
00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:00,120
Speaker 1: can continue to be like around fourteen to fifteen to

799
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks. That's gonna win a ton

800
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:03,680
Speaker 1: of games. They don't have to be the best defensive

801
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:05,600
Speaker 1: team in the league. They just got to be passable, right.

802
00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:08,600
Speaker 4: They got to be not the worst because let's see

803
00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:11,360
Speaker 4: who said it here in the stream. Team Ziggy says

804
00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:14,319
Speaker 4: it'll be mostly them beating themselves if it happens, and

805
00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:16,120
Speaker 4: that's kind of what it feels like. Maybe they fall

806
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:18,720
Speaker 4: apart defensively. Maybe they have a game like the Rockets

807
00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:20,919
Speaker 4: had years ago, where they just cannot hit a three

808
00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:24,680
Speaker 4: pointer because, like Lee saying, the threes are a huge difference.

809
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,080
Speaker 4: They got great shooting from their role players last night,

810
00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:30,160
Speaker 4: and if that continues, you're talking three versus two when

811
00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:32,080
Speaker 4: it's against big guys, and that can be a problem

812
00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:34,680
Speaker 4: for a Sixers team trying to score as efficiently as

813
00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 4: the Nets may be able to do. But yeah, I

814
00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:39,719
Speaker 4: mean the Nets when they're playing at their best, they

815
00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:42,560
Speaker 4: look great, and that's without their best player. So scary stuff.

816
00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:44,839
Speaker 4: The other stuff thing I did like from this game

817
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:48,480
Speaker 4: I heard Greg Anthony on the call. He said, James

818
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:52,680
Speaker 4: Harden is a special passer of the basketball. Oh god,

819
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:55,839
Speaker 4: not quite a beautiful shooter of the basketball, but a

820
00:36:55,880 --> 00:37:02,279
Speaker 4: special passer of the basketball. Get him some copy rights

821
00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:05,560
Speaker 4: on these things. Come out with something that gainst chance

822
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:06,560
Speaker 4: just a little bit.

823
00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:08,920
Speaker 3: I know, I know, I don't know what to do. Man,

824
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:12,040
Speaker 3: It's just if imitation is the highest form of flattery.

825
00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:12,920
Speaker 1: Is that right?

826
00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:15,320
Speaker 3: So I'll just take that as a compliment. But I

827
00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:17,240
Speaker 3: would say one thing. The other thing about James Harden

828
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:20,719
Speaker 3: since he's been in Brooklyn. One of the criticisms about him,

829
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:22,560
Speaker 3: certainly from someone like me in the past, is how

830
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:25,680
Speaker 3: he would go out hunting those fowls. And he doesn't

831
00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:28,160
Speaker 3: appear to be doing that at all anymore. He's playing

832
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:31,080
Speaker 3: the right way as well, you know, which is by

833
00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:33,520
Speaker 3: my definition anyway, by playing the right way. You know,

834
00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:35,759
Speaker 3: Trey Young's going out their hunting of fowls. Players has

835
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:38,799
Speaker 3: done it forever. But it just feels like he's, you know,

836
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:42,399
Speaker 3: this transition has just been too perfect. What's going on?

837
00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:45,400
Speaker 3: I'm suspicious. I think there's a conspiracy out there. I

838
00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:48,799
Speaker 3: don't know, but like this last night, he like say,

839
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:50,840
Speaker 3: he almost just got a triple double in his sleep,

840
00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:53,640
Speaker 3: didn't shoot all that well. But it's like, hang on

841
00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:56,319
Speaker 3: a minute, James, this is like, don't make it. Don't

842
00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:59,120
Speaker 3: make me do Like Trey, Trey started liking Chris Paul

843
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 3: and and Paul George. Wasn't it last season? Try well?

844
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:06,279
Speaker 4: I started being nice about it. What's going on?

845
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:07,960
Speaker 3: I'm starting to feel like you know, I'm going to

846
00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:10,000
Speaker 3: be out there, like, you know, wearing a James Hotten

847
00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:11,000
Speaker 3: t shirt around sometimes.

848
00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:13,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, tell me when you're on Team Rondo and then.

849
00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:14,640
Speaker 4: We'll get yeah, exactly right.

850
00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:19,960
Speaker 1: No, thanks, okay, our next game here, Oh this one hurts, sorry, Tess.

851
00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,560
Speaker 1: You know, maybe cover your ears here. Tony Snell's three

852
00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:26,600
Speaker 1: pointer at the buzzer cover my smell, yeah, lifts the

853
00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:31,000
Speaker 1: Hawks over the Raptors one twenty. Raptors was out a

854
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:33,279
Speaker 1: lot of their key guys. Snow put up a fight though,

855
00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:36,920
Speaker 1: had a crazy big lead, and here come the Hawks

856
00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:40,239
Speaker 1: and Tony Snell t cat with a huge shot. I mean,

857
00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:42,319
Speaker 1: nice play. He moved from the corner up to the wing,

858
00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:44,399
Speaker 1: created a little space and I found him a little

859
00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:47,320
Speaker 1: Raptor's defensive breakdown maybe in terms of helping out a

860
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:50,120
Speaker 1: little too much, but uh, Snell knocked it down. Game over,

861
00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:54,160
Speaker 1: Hawks win, Snelly Cat. What are they feeding you?

862
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:57,120
Speaker 4: One of the most beautiful shooters of the basketball, right,

863
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,839
Speaker 4: Tony Snell? That's crazy stuff what you said to us.

864
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:03,880
Speaker 4: Since February first, he's sixty four percent from three. I

865
00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:06,879
Speaker 4: think he's at fifty seven ish for the season. Trey

866
00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:08,879
Speaker 4: Young said before the All Star break. When I passed

867
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:10,400
Speaker 4: to Toomey shoots the ball, I think it's going in

868
00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:13,320
Speaker 4: every time. It did last night. Great win for the Hawks.

869
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:17,160
Speaker 4: Not a surprising loss for the Raptors considering the players

870
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:18,960
Speaker 4: they had out, but the way it went down was

871
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:23,480
Speaker 4: super surprising. Chris Bouche and one layup about six minutes

872
00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:27,719
Speaker 4: left puts the Raptors up fifteen. Matt Devlin on the call.

873
00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:32,360
Speaker 1: That may have done it me said me, good safe, Yeah.

874
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:36,360
Speaker 4: I mean up fifteen. You're thinking yeah, But six minutes left,

875
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:39,640
Speaker 4: there's a lot of time to happen. And for whatever reason,

876
00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:42,359
Speaker 4: the Raptors just stopped scoring. Scored eight points in their

877
00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:45,640
Speaker 4: final twelve possessions over the last six minute. It's because

878
00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 4: it's all falling on Kyle Lowry and Norm Powell. I

879
00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:50,680
Speaker 4: think Lowry went two of six, had three turnovers in

880
00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:52,920
Speaker 4: the fourth quarter. He had nine turnovers in the game.

881
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:56,600
Speaker 4: Norm nice game, just two points in the fourth quarter. Meanwhile,

882
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:58,719
Speaker 4: Trey Young was on fire. I thought he was great

883
00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:00,160
Speaker 4: in the fourth quarter getting in the lane and he

884
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:03,000
Speaker 4: had eleven points, four assists. So on that final play

885
00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:06,000
Speaker 4: he gets the penetration. Looked like four Raptors were helping

886
00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:10,759
Speaker 4: Tony Snell wide open game blouses. Nice play by Trey Young, yep.

887
00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:12,799
Speaker 4: Raptors just kind of took their foot off the gas

888
00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:16,120
Speaker 4: there and the scoring got pretty tough for him. You know,

889
00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:18,479
Speaker 4: Kyle Lowry a great player, but he has to create

890
00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:21,840
Speaker 4: shots for basically everybody. With the squad that the Raptors

891
00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:23,719
Speaker 4: had out there last night. Norm Powell can get his

892
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:28,040
Speaker 4: own shots, not necessarily a playmaker for others. But the

893
00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:30,520
Speaker 4: way it went down was weird. It was certainly weird,

894
00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:33,319
Speaker 4: especially seeing it coming through on the stream team when

895
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:35,279
Speaker 4: we were doing Happy Hour last night. You could tell things,

896
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:38,600
Speaker 4: We're not going great. But I think it's more of

897
00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:40,239
Speaker 4: a great win for the Hawks than it is a

898
00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:41,720
Speaker 4: super bad loss for the Raptors.

899
00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:45,600
Speaker 1: Hawks are still undefeated with Nate McMillan as their head coach,

900
00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:47,520
Speaker 1: are they not believe? I think that improves them to

901
00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:50,279
Speaker 1: three and zero. The other note from this was Kyle

902
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:53,400
Speaker 1: Lowry past Chris bosh Hall of Famer, probably Chris Bosh

903
00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:56,279
Speaker 1: on second on the Raptors' scoring list, so he only

904
00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:59,040
Speaker 1: trails to Rosen. Now Lowry does anything else to add

905
00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:01,360
Speaker 1: to this one test floss? Obviously for the Reps, they

906
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:03,040
Speaker 1: should have had it. They were up. I mean, Norm

907
00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:05,120
Speaker 1: had a great game. He missed two free throws that

908
00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:08,880
Speaker 1: probably ice it pretty late, but anything else.

909
00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:10,920
Speaker 2: That well, we're here in Atlanta. I want to believe

910
00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:13,000
Speaker 2: in the Hawks and they're three and oh run after

911
00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:16,200
Speaker 2: firing coach Pierce, but I'm not buying it. They come

912
00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:18,839
Speaker 2: down a game here with yeah, no Sakam, no Fred

913
00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 2: van Vliet, excuse me, no o g and they play

914
00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:23,680
Speaker 2: good defense the last six minutes and the other team

915
00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:26,640
Speaker 2: falls apart. Same thing happened in their previous win. The

916
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:30,000
Speaker 2: Magic didn't have three of their starters and the Magic

917
00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:31,759
Speaker 2: were up big and the Hawks were able to come

918
00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:34,000
Speaker 2: back and win that game. Still not buying it. And

919
00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:35,800
Speaker 2: then they you know, their best one was the first

920
00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:39,960
Speaker 2: one of the three. They're riding high. You always get

921
00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:42,840
Speaker 2: a little post coach firing high, and they beat a

922
00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:47,600
Speaker 2: Jimmy Butler lists Miami Heat team. So I'm not buying

923
00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:51,600
Speaker 2: it at this point. I want to, but I just

924
00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:54,239
Speaker 2: loved watching the first half of this game. Trey Young

925
00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:57,200
Speaker 2: got under Kyle Lowry's skin because he was he was

926
00:41:57,239 --> 00:42:01,040
Speaker 2: trying to draw fouls exactly like you know the James

927
00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:04,239
Speaker 2: Harden talk. He was bumping into Kyle Lowry, and I

928
00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:06,680
Speaker 2: would never think of a guy like Kyle Lowry the

929
00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:09,560
Speaker 2: guy you piss off and then he just turns you

930
00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:11,560
Speaker 2: woke that, you woke him up. He poked the bear

931
00:42:11,600 --> 00:42:14,120
Speaker 2: and then he just beats you. You don't think of

932
00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:16,280
Speaker 2: Kyle Lowry like that. But he was awesome and setting

933
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:20,480
Speaker 2: everybody up afterwards. Wasn't the scoring, but he got passed,

934
00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:23,920
Speaker 2: he got real angry, and then he turned the game around.

935
00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:25,799
Speaker 2: And that's you know, it was a middling game. They

936
00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:27,839
Speaker 2: were kind of down and then yeah, they they went

937
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:31,120
Speaker 2: up big because Kyle Lowry, the future Hall of Famer,

938
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:35,520
Speaker 2: was able to turn this thing around. But yeah, I'm

939
00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:37,560
Speaker 2: not I can't take too much from it. When you

940
00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:39,880
Speaker 2: you come down to six minutes of a game, every

941
00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:43,120
Speaker 2: defense seems to be good. And the Hawks defense turned

942
00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:45,160
Speaker 2: it on at the end there and they were able

943
00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:48,600
Speaker 2: to shut down. Like like Tray said, Lowry and and

944
00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:51,560
Speaker 2: Norm Powell. But you know, if you had some weapons,

945
00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:55,000
Speaker 2: if you had Freddy, if you had Pasky. This is

946
00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:57,839
Speaker 2: this is a lossy for for the Hawks. I think

947
00:42:57,880 --> 00:42:59,080
Speaker 2: that's pretty still.

948
00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:01,279
Speaker 1: I mean, they're gonna care, right the Hawks. These are

949
00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:03,080
Speaker 1: big wins. Against those three teams. You just said that

950
00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:05,600
Speaker 1: they might be jockeying for some sort of like position

951
00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:07,400
Speaker 1: with or to get into the playoffs, to get in

952
00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:08,799
Speaker 1: the play in who'd you say? You said? The Heat,

953
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:11,840
Speaker 1: the Magic and the Raptors right, all could be bunched

954
00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:13,640
Speaker 1: up there. So they'll take the victories for sure. The

955
00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:15,239
Speaker 1: Hawks bros. Will final one here.

956
00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:17,480
Speaker 4: What do you think about my trade proposal there.

957
00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:20,439
Speaker 1: Skeets, I haven't even seen it. Oh, the one auto porter?

958
00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:24,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, you know Kyle Lowry is talking about I'll

959
00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:27,200
Speaker 4: retire a Raptor budd. He's giving hints that yes, I could,

960
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:30,960
Speaker 4: perhaps I could perhaps be on another team here pretty soon.

961
00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:34,800
Speaker 4: The Bulls, they're back, but they are not an elite

962
00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:36,880
Speaker 4: team at this point. They need a veteran there to

963
00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:39,920
Speaker 4: really to give them that little red ass get them

964
00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:44,000
Speaker 4: fired up. What about Kyle Lowry becoming the Chris Paul

965
00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:47,320
Speaker 4: of the Chicago Bolts, taking a team on the fringes

966
00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:51,120
Speaker 4: and making them great auto porter for Kyle Lowry who.

967
00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:56,040
Speaker 1: Says no, no, I know, who says, I like it

968
00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:59,320
Speaker 1: for your team? Yes, a great move. I think it

969
00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:02,399
Speaker 1: would take a little bit more. Yeah, not a lot

970
00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:03,040
Speaker 1: of interest in.

971
00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:11,080
Speaker 4: Autoport, slideet pick slidejet picks round. You're talking number sixteen, baby,

972
00:44:11,200 --> 00:44:13,480
Speaker 4: that's always I thought you always had a number. What's

973
00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:16,600
Speaker 4: your pick? Usually seven or number seven? Bulls always draft seven.

974
00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:18,880
Speaker 4: Somehow got four this past year. But I mean, if

975
00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:23,080
Speaker 4: you had Kyle Lowry, that says guaranteed a playoff team guaranteed.

976
00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:25,680
Speaker 4: I don't think it's happening, but I'm trying to make

977
00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:26,160
Speaker 4: it happen.

978
00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:29,680
Speaker 2: Sam you No, no in the stream says Lowry for Lowry,

979
00:44:29,719 --> 00:44:31,040
Speaker 2: Kyle Lowry for Lowry, Markingen.

980
00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:35,600
Speaker 1: Wow, that's a nice interesting. Now that's a little more interesting.

981
00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, because the Bulls may not want to sign him

982
00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:39,879
Speaker 2: in the off season. He's restricted free agent.

983
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:44,680
Speaker 1: Oh Lowry for would be a crazy in the headline

984
00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:46,719
Speaker 1: season salt trade. I would love it.

985
00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:49,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm prouday. Can the Raps get Stacey King in

986
00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:52,120
Speaker 2: that deal too? I want a little Stacey on the Raps?

987
00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:55,799
Speaker 2: I did? I did want to mention just one random thing.

988
00:44:55,840 --> 00:44:58,480
Speaker 1: No, they'll get Truck Swirsky back in the you'd be

989
00:44:58,520 --> 00:44:59,080
Speaker 1: doing radio.

990
00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:03,360
Speaker 2: Matt Devlin on the call. Speaking of broadcasters, he shouted

991
00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:07,680
Speaker 2: out the Aaron Baines fan club Twitter account, throwing the broadcast.

992
00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 2: I mean that Devlin going deep. I mean it's a

993
00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:12,560
Speaker 2: great Twitter account and I love it. Aaron Bain's having

994
00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:14,839
Speaker 2: his best game of the season. He was just out

995
00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:18,600
Speaker 2: there bawling. But Devlin to go deep enough to go

996
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:21,000
Speaker 2: into the Twitter sphere and to call it the Baines

997
00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:23,600
Speaker 2: fan Club, I love it. I love it. Devlin old

998
00:45:23,960 --> 00:45:26,080
Speaker 2: more of an old school broadcaster by keeping it new

999
00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:27,280
Speaker 2: school good stuff.

1000
00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:32,239
Speaker 1: Maddie Durere, Matt Devlin in the broadcast. Everybody has a

1001
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:34,160
Speaker 1: future Hall of Famer on Today Show, including this guy.

1002
00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:36,800
Speaker 1: Devin Booker scored thirty five points. Suns beat the Blazers

1003
00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:43,520
Speaker 1: Ley on Suns, stay hot, man, they're rolling. They heard

1004
00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:46,520
Speaker 1: you talking crap on yesterday's show saying you don't believe

1005
00:45:46,520 --> 00:45:48,120
Speaker 1: in them. You believe in the Jazz, but you don't

1006
00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:49,840
Speaker 1: want to believe in the Suns. And this is a

1007
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:52,480
Speaker 1: nice win, a really impressive win. Bridges was great. What

1008
00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:52,919
Speaker 1: do you think?

1009
00:45:53,200 --> 00:45:55,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, good comeback. That was down thirteen in the third

1010
00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:57,840
Speaker 3: period there against a Damian Littlid team, which you I

1011
00:45:57,920 --> 00:45:59,920
Speaker 3: would always back a little it sort of in that situation.

1012
00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:02,319
Speaker 3: But Booker had twenty two in the second half and

1013
00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:05,800
Speaker 3: he was really good. Again. They got other contributions from guys,

1014
00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:07,799
Speaker 3: but Booker is the one that you want to see

1015
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:10,560
Speaker 3: step up and sort of be the leader of his team,

1016
00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:12,120
Speaker 3: and they did and they got the comfortable victory in

1017
00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:14,040
Speaker 3: the end. I would love to see a playoff series

1018
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:16,960
Speaker 3: though against these two teams. Still no CJ and still

1019
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:21,040
Speaker 3: no Nurkic for the Blazers, which would make a huge difference.

1020
00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:24,160
Speaker 3: But that's the thing. I think when the Blazers are

1021
00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:26,720
Speaker 3: at full strength against the Suns team, that's a very

1022
00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:29,520
Speaker 3: spicy matchup because you know, when you got Gary Trann

1023
00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:32,439
Speaker 3: out there and Anthony Simon's and this see a little

1024
00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:34,200
Speaker 3: as well, like they're different players, and when you have

1025
00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:36,040
Speaker 3: someone like CJ who can go out there and get

1026
00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:39,480
Speaker 3: his own bucket, I think that changes a huge, huge

1027
00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:43,239
Speaker 3: dynamic there for the Blazers offense. So yeah, goodwin. Though

1028
00:46:43,239 --> 00:46:45,239
Speaker 3: for the Suns, they keep on rolling. They just keep

1029
00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:47,600
Speaker 3: on pocketing these wins, and that's all you have to do.

1030
00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:49,400
Speaker 3: When you're the Phoenix Suns. You've got to get as

1031
00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:51,640
Speaker 3: many as you can and hope to have home court

1032
00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:53,799
Speaker 3: advantage if you can for a minimum of two rounds

1033
00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:55,360
Speaker 3: in the playoffs. If you're going to go anywhere.

1034
00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:59,360
Speaker 1: Other games, Terry Rozier and a Chevy Cruise named PJ.

1035
00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:02,400
Speaker 1: Washington helped the Hornets down the Pistons one five, one

1036
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:04,920
Speaker 1: on two. Michael Jordan in attendance, see the ball end

1037
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:07,440
Speaker 1: up in Jordan's hands. Didn't shoot it? Oh, I couldn't

1038
00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:12,400
Speaker 1: believe it. Let it fly, imj from the side. There, Sixers, Bucks, Clippers.

1039
00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:16,000
Speaker 1: They all won in big blowouts. Kings handed the Rockets

1040
00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:18,279
Speaker 1: their fourteenth straight loss. The he beat the Magic, the

1041
00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:22,040
Speaker 1: Thunder outlasted the Luca and k p Lis MAVs. They

1042
00:47:22,080 --> 00:47:24,160
Speaker 1: were without their two guys. Sga was pretty special in

1043
00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:26,600
Speaker 1: that one. And maybe the most shocking outcome from Thursday Night.

1044
00:47:27,400 --> 00:47:30,160
Speaker 1: Jalen Nowell nol. I don't even know how to say

1045
00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:32,360
Speaker 1: the kid's last name. I think he had himself a

1046
00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:33,480
Speaker 1: career night. How do you say it?

1047
00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:33,920
Speaker 2: Noel?

1048
00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:37,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, Noel? The Wolves. He plays with the Wolves. He

1049
00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:41,680
Speaker 1: was on fire and they beat the Pelicans by thirty tasks.

1050
00:47:42,200 --> 00:47:45,239
Speaker 1: My goodness, that is not looking good in New Orleans

1051
00:47:45,280 --> 00:47:48,080
Speaker 1: when you're losing my thirty to the Wolves. Who got

1052
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:52,520
Speaker 1: Chris Finch's finch a his first victory as a head coach,

1053
00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:55,000
Speaker 1: congrats to him, but that's wild. And from that game,

1054
00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:57,879
Speaker 1: maybe most importantly, what'd you number thirty?

1055
00:47:57,960 --> 00:47:58,200
Speaker 3: Guys?

1056
00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:03,880
Speaker 1: All, my goodness, these things are still coming fast and furious.

1057
00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:06,080
Speaker 1: Let's have a quick look at it. You know, look,

1058
00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:07,960
Speaker 1: it's nothing special going on here.

1059
00:48:08,040 --> 00:48:09,799
Speaker 2: It's only a quick look. Is a quick one?

1060
00:48:10,080 --> 00:48:12,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know it'd stayed up there for a bit. Oh,

1061
00:48:12,120 --> 00:48:14,200
Speaker 1: we got the IO shot that I thought got the

1062
00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:16,719
Speaker 1: ISO shot. So that was good. So there you go,

1063
00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:21,759
Speaker 1: number thirty, incredible twenty to goalie till our magical mark

1064
00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:24,959
Speaker 1: of fifty and we are on pace for sixty four.

1065
00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:26,160
Speaker 1: This thing keeps ticking rate.

1066
00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:29,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, how can we not get at least

1067
00:48:29,480 --> 00:48:31,520
Speaker 3: like fifty five no matter what happens? I mean, we

1068
00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:32,680
Speaker 3: got to set a record on me.

1069
00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:33,040
Speaker 4: You know.

1070
00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:36,839
Speaker 3: We just just feels like every night now this one, yeah, and.

1071
00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:39,239
Speaker 1: Then yeah, every second or third night, it feels like

1072
00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:41,520
Speaker 1: we're getting what that's the pace we want to keep up?

1073
00:48:41,719 --> 00:48:44,960
Speaker 1: Good stuff. The only other note from all those games

1074
00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:48,040
Speaker 1: that I took us through. There the PJ. Tucker news Again.

1075
00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:50,400
Speaker 1: The Rockets, I said, lost their fourteenth straight. He decided

1076
00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:52,759
Speaker 1: not to play on Thursday night. He's not expected to

1077
00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:56,120
Speaker 1: return to the team tests, and you know, by all reports,

1078
00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:59,279
Speaker 1: he's frustrated that he hasn't been moved yet to a

1079
00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:01,839
Speaker 1: contender and that he's just made it clear like I'm

1080
00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:03,520
Speaker 1: just gonna sit out games until you guys trade me

1081
00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:06,520
Speaker 1: ahead of the March twenty fifth deadline. Lots of teams

1082
00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:08,600
Speaker 1: reportedly interest. We've talked about it before. I mean, Tucker,

1083
00:49:08,640 --> 00:49:10,799
Speaker 1: you could slot him in a lot of places. But

1084
00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:13,600
Speaker 1: the Bucks, the Lakers, the Heat, the Nets. Is there

1085
00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:16,319
Speaker 1: a team that you think could benefit most from trying

1086
00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:18,480
Speaker 1: to get PJ. Tucker from Houston? And they, by the way,

1087
00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:20,839
Speaker 1: want like apparently like a young player. They're not even

1088
00:49:20,880 --> 00:49:23,080
Speaker 1: as interested in picks, like, you know, give us a

1089
00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:25,000
Speaker 1: promising young player. What do you think?

1090
00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:28,480
Speaker 2: I guess because they they stock piled so they got Yeah. Yeah,

1091
00:49:28,520 --> 00:49:32,360
Speaker 2: so PJ. Tucker. Man. First I saw the news and

1092
00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:35,319
Speaker 2: Steven Salas, head coach of the Rockets, said, I thought

1093
00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:38,160
Speaker 2: he was going to play. I was so disappointed. Just

1094
00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:39,000
Speaker 2: feel bad for him.

1095
00:49:39,080 --> 00:49:40,640
Speaker 1: Man, what a year for that guy.

1096
00:49:40,719 --> 00:49:42,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like we came out of the gate coaching well,

1097
00:49:42,680 --> 00:49:44,919
Speaker 2: things looking good. Now they've lost fourteen in a row

1098
00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:48,239
Speaker 2: and it ain't his fault, so that the Rockets yeah,

1099
00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:52,440
Speaker 2: falling apart and PJ Tucker. He saw all his other buddies,

1100
00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:54,879
Speaker 2: you know, part of the Rockets crew that was going

1101
00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:57,160
Speaker 2: to the finals. They all left, not the finals, the

1102
00:49:57,160 --> 00:50:01,520
Speaker 2: Western Conference finals. They all left in Hard and then Westbrook,

1103
00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:05,440
Speaker 2: and so he wants he wants out and it's understandable.

1104
00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:08,960
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, I've I've talked about it on What You

1105
00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:13,160
Speaker 2: Need to Know this morning, So I haven't changed. I

1106
00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:15,799
Speaker 2: think the Miami Heat are just too good. They're just

1107
00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:17,839
Speaker 2: too perfect for him. They need a four.

1108
00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:18,520
Speaker 5: Uh.

1109
00:50:18,640 --> 00:50:22,720
Speaker 2: They really haven't placed replaced Jay Crowder from their finals run.

1110
00:50:23,120 --> 00:50:25,279
Speaker 2: You talk about guys that you'd never heard of, I

1111
00:50:25,320 --> 00:50:27,279
Speaker 2: mean I had. I had to look up this guy's name,

1112
00:50:28,160 --> 00:50:31,560
Speaker 2: k z O Zapala, I think his name is. He

1113
00:50:31,680 --> 00:50:34,760
Speaker 2: started at power forward for the Heat last night. They're

1114
00:50:34,840 --> 00:50:37,760
Speaker 2: they're looking for anybody to play that power forward position.

1115
00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:40,680
Speaker 2: You think they're really deep. Moll Hearkless hasn't hasn't worked

1116
00:50:40,680 --> 00:50:42,319
Speaker 2: out for them. I thought that would be the guy

1117
00:50:42,520 --> 00:50:45,280
Speaker 2: that was supposed to replace Ja Crowder who went to Phoenix.

1118
00:50:46,040 --> 00:50:50,440
Speaker 2: I think PJ would be absolutely perfect Heat culture. That

1119
00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:53,040
Speaker 2: just it just it just makes too much sense. But

1120
00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:55,440
Speaker 2: I don't know. They do have young guys that they

1121
00:50:55,440 --> 00:50:57,960
Speaker 2: could trade back. But how much are they willing to

1122
00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:02,400
Speaker 2: give up for PJ. Tucker? Willing to give up Kendrick Nunn,

1123
00:51:03,160 --> 00:51:08,719
Speaker 2: I think that would be that's a lot.

1124
00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:10,480
Speaker 1: Thirty five yearl guy on an expiring contracts. But but

1125
00:51:10,480 --> 00:51:15,239
Speaker 1: but can maybe you know, again, like solidify a contender's

1126
00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:18,239
Speaker 1: rotation rightly? So, I mean depends on the player, the

1127
00:51:18,239 --> 00:51:20,280
Speaker 1: young asset he was sent back, But the right team

1128
00:51:20,320 --> 00:51:23,160
Speaker 1: I could see talking themselves into it because he Protucker

1129
00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:24,759
Speaker 1: could still help you, no doubt.

1130
00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:27,000
Speaker 3: Of course, defensively, oh there's no doubt. I think a

1131
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:28,839
Speaker 3: lot of those teams would love to have him out

1132
00:51:28,880 --> 00:51:30,680
Speaker 3: in there because he does that three and d roll

1133
00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:33,720
Speaker 3: so well. But I certainly wouldn't give up any promising

1134
00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:35,919
Speaker 3: ass Kendrick Nunn. I mean, he's a little a little

1135
00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:39,600
Speaker 3: up and down for sure. But again it depends on

1136
00:51:39,719 --> 00:51:42,719
Speaker 3: just how desperate someone thinks PJ. Tucker can help their team,

1137
00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:45,759
Speaker 3: And if they get any sort of significant off excuse me,

1138
00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:48,279
Speaker 3: the Rockets get any sort of significant offer, then it

1139
00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:50,759
Speaker 3: just drives that price up a little bit. But I

1140
00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:53,239
Speaker 3: can't see anyone giving up a first round. It'd be

1141
00:51:53,280 --> 00:51:56,320
Speaker 3: more just someone who's on the fringe of their rotation

1142
00:51:56,440 --> 00:51:58,480
Speaker 3: that the team feels they can they can do without.

1143
00:51:58,560 --> 00:52:01,279
Speaker 3: But yeah, it's it's a it's a rental that you're

1144
00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:03,560
Speaker 3: getting here from PJ. Tucker for at least this season

1145
00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:05,759
Speaker 3: and then even after this he's only probably signing one

1146
00:52:05,800 --> 00:52:08,680
Speaker 3: year deals for here on out. But certainly we know

1147
00:52:08,719 --> 00:52:11,200
Speaker 3: that he's a tough guy in that corner. Three is cash,

1148
00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:13,760
Speaker 3: so he provides some value.

1149
00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:15,080
Speaker 1: Not his cash this year.

1150
00:52:15,600 --> 00:52:19,280
Speaker 3: No, but he's not He's not into it this season.

1151
00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:20,799
Speaker 3: You know, that's a big part of it. I think

1152
00:52:20,840 --> 00:52:23,200
Speaker 3: he's like, what's the point. But I think he can

1153
00:52:23,239 --> 00:52:24,520
Speaker 3: still perform when he needs to.

1154
00:52:25,120 --> 00:52:26,640
Speaker 1: Trey, is there a team you'd like to see Tucker

1155
00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:27,000
Speaker 1: land on?

1156
00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:30,200
Speaker 4: I think the Heat is the call as well. Obviously

1157
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:32,960
Speaker 4: you're going to hear PJ. Tucker put onto all of

1158
00:52:33,000 --> 00:52:35,239
Speaker 4: the contenders as every single player is. Is it going

1159
00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:36,840
Speaker 4: to be the Lakers, Is it going to be the Clippers,

1160
00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:39,120
Speaker 4: Is it going to be the Nets? Clearly he works

1161
00:52:39,160 --> 00:52:41,080
Speaker 4: out there and I think that you'll see him get

1162
00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:43,080
Speaker 4: closer to forty percent from three if he ends up

1163
00:52:43,080 --> 00:52:44,799
Speaker 4: on any of those teams and he's shooting wide open

1164
00:52:44,880 --> 00:52:47,200
Speaker 4: jumpers every single time. I would love to see him

1165
00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:48,920
Speaker 4: on the Heat, though, like Tasa San, they could use

1166
00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:51,680
Speaker 4: a four who's shooting the threes to replace Jay Crowder.

1167
00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:54,640
Speaker 4: The question is, would you give up Kendrick Nunn, a

1168
00:52:54,680 --> 00:52:56,400
Speaker 4: guy who can be a little bit of a Tyler

1169
00:52:56,480 --> 00:53:00,200
Speaker 4: hero insurance, a little bit of Goran Dragic insurance when

1170
00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:02,280
Speaker 4: those guys are maybe off the court, are not playing

1171
00:53:02,320 --> 00:53:05,440
Speaker 4: super well. Would you trade precious at Chew up a rookie,

1172
00:53:05,520 --> 00:53:07,359
Speaker 4: a guy that they really like. They say he could

1173
00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:09,520
Speaker 4: be the next Bam out of Bio, which fair enough,

1174
00:53:09,520 --> 00:53:11,359
Speaker 4: maybe he is, but you got Bam out of Bio

1175
00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:14,400
Speaker 4: and he's also super young. That's might be who the

1176
00:53:14,480 --> 00:53:16,839
Speaker 4: Rockets could be targeting if they're going with the Heat.

1177
00:53:17,040 --> 00:53:17,480
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1178
00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:20,080
Speaker 4: I don't know if if I would do that, but

1179
00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:22,359
Speaker 4: you know, the heater always trying to win the title.

1180
00:53:22,360 --> 00:53:24,200
Speaker 4: They're not just trying to make the playoffs, They're trying

1181
00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:27,440
Speaker 4: to actually get another championship, So perhaps they would do

1182
00:53:27,520 --> 00:53:29,960
Speaker 4: it thinking that they're already set there with a BAM.

1183
00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:32,959
Speaker 1: At least it's very very likely PJ. Tucker will be moved.

1184
00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:35,080
Speaker 1: I'm sure you can get something in return, and if

1185
00:53:35,080 --> 00:53:37,240
Speaker 1: you're the Rockets, I'm sure you'll take anything over nothing,

1186
00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:39,480
Speaker 1: but we'll see you. Okay, we got worse of the week.

1187
00:53:39,520 --> 00:53:41,680
Speaker 1: We got to get to We got a still in

1188
00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:44,480
Speaker 1: this show. As we tick up to the hour mark.

1189
00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:50,040
Speaker 1: Here Arch madness right around the corner selection Sunday this weekend. Man,

1190
00:53:50,120 --> 00:53:51,279
Speaker 1: what can you believe it?

1191
00:53:51,360 --> 00:53:51,560
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1192
00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:52,360
Speaker 1: What crazy?

1193
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:52,760
Speaker 4: Crazy?

1194
00:53:52,960 --> 00:53:55,360
Speaker 1: I think that's right, isn't it?

1195
00:53:56,960 --> 00:53:58,080
Speaker 4: March It seems legit.

1196
00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:01,480
Speaker 1: Well, that's right around the quarter. That's all no given clutch. Okay,

1197
00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:04,120
Speaker 1: time for worse of the week, ladies and gentlemen, the

1198
00:54:04,160 --> 00:54:05,520
Speaker 1: worst of the week.

1199
00:54:08,760 --> 00:54:11,480
Speaker 2: This week's worst of the week is the Miami Heats

1200
00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:15,480
Speaker 2: Myers Leonard. Leonard was playing Call of Duty on Twitch

1201
00:54:15,520 --> 00:54:18,840
Speaker 2: when he started talking some trash and dropped an anti

1202
00:54:18,840 --> 00:54:23,200
Speaker 2: semitic slur. Gaming companies he's partnered with started ending the

1203
00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:28,120
Speaker 2: relationship almost immediately in the Miami Heat, saying that Leonard

1204
00:54:28,160 --> 00:54:31,640
Speaker 2: will be away from the team indefinitely as the organization

1205
00:54:31,840 --> 00:54:34,920
Speaker 2: quote will not tolerate hateful language from anyone associated with

1206
00:54:35,000 --> 00:54:37,960
Speaker 2: the franchise. Leonard apologized that same day and said he

1207
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:40,480
Speaker 2: didn't know what the word meant at the time, but

1208
00:54:40,600 --> 00:54:43,320
Speaker 2: also that his ignorance about its history and how offensive

1209
00:54:43,360 --> 00:54:47,160
Speaker 2: it is to the Jewish community is absolutely not an excuse.

1210
00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:50,120
Speaker 2: The league is conducting an investigation. I think there's two

1211
00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:54,359
Speaker 2: things to talk about here. First, I wonder how far

1212
00:54:54,600 --> 00:54:57,239
Speaker 2: should people in the public eye have to go to

1213
00:54:57,280 --> 00:55:00,600
Speaker 2: rectify a wrong like this, Because in the Athletic Slack

1214
00:55:00,680 --> 00:55:03,560
Speaker 2: channel there was a chat going on. Zach Harper brought

1215
00:55:03,640 --> 00:55:05,919
Speaker 2: up that if you remember Tim Hardaway senior, we talked

1216
00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:09,439
Speaker 2: about him as a Hall of Fame candidate. He made

1217
00:55:09,480 --> 00:55:12,359
Speaker 2: homophobic comments a long time ago, and then he made

1218
00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:14,800
Speaker 2: some real efforts to educate himself and become an advocate

1219
00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:20,279
Speaker 2: and ally for the LGBTQ community. He didn't just apologize

1220
00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:23,359
Speaker 2: and move on. The league shouldn't force something like that.

1221
00:55:23,440 --> 00:55:25,880
Speaker 2: To me, I mean, that's that's what you should happen.

1222
00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:30,880
Speaker 2: Just educate yourself. And I think you saw Edelman of

1223
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:34,759
Speaker 2: the Patriots reach out to Meyers Leonard come on over, man,

1224
00:55:34,840 --> 00:55:36,960
Speaker 2: let me let me educate you, let me I think

1225
00:55:37,000 --> 00:55:39,240
Speaker 2: that's what should happen, and hopefully it does. The second

1226
00:55:39,239 --> 00:55:41,840
Speaker 2: thing is the Heat saying he will and definitely not

1227
00:55:41,920 --> 00:55:46,239
Speaker 2: be with the team. I can't remember a team an

1228
00:55:46,360 --> 00:55:51,080
Speaker 2: organization after someone slipped up said something incorrect. It was

1229
00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:55,760
Speaker 2: totally wrong. To just send him away. I can't remember

1230
00:55:55,760 --> 00:55:56,680
Speaker 2: a situation like this.

1231
00:55:57,120 --> 00:55:59,480
Speaker 1: He's not playing though, either, right, I mean he's injured

1232
00:55:59,480 --> 00:56:02,520
Speaker 1: for the season. Oh for so it's a little easier

1233
00:56:02,560 --> 00:56:04,359
Speaker 1: I think maybe a decision. I think it's the right

1234
00:56:04,400 --> 00:56:07,160
Speaker 1: decision still, but yeah, he's he's out for the year.

1235
00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:12,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, so good on them, and hopefully he goes to

1236
00:56:12,120 --> 00:56:14,400
Speaker 2: to educate himself. He I guess, yeah, he's out for

1237
00:56:14,440 --> 00:56:16,560
Speaker 2: the season. I didn't realize that he was injured.

1238
00:56:17,440 --> 00:56:19,480
Speaker 3: And I guess the hat said the het have said

1239
00:56:19,480 --> 00:56:23,520
Speaker 3: he will have to participate in a cultural diversity program,

1240
00:56:23,560 --> 00:56:26,000
Speaker 3: so that's the first step anyway, But you would like

1241
00:56:26,040 --> 00:56:28,080
Speaker 3: to see him obviously take some initiative on his own

1242
00:56:28,120 --> 00:56:29,080
Speaker 3: as well. I think yeah.

1243
00:56:29,120 --> 00:56:31,080
Speaker 1: And his apology was I got to say it was

1244
00:56:31,120 --> 00:56:33,640
Speaker 1: a little weird. I mean he was basically saying I

1245
00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:36,520
Speaker 1: did not know what the slur meant before. If you

1246
00:56:36,560 --> 00:56:39,560
Speaker 1: watch the clip before, I very deliberately used a slur.

1247
00:56:40,320 --> 00:56:42,880
Speaker 1: I mean he was he you know, that's not a

1248
00:56:42,880 --> 00:56:46,839
Speaker 1: word casually thrown around. So that was that's brutal. I mean,

1249
00:56:46,880 --> 00:56:47,960
Speaker 1: this is an obvious worst of the week.

1250
00:56:47,960 --> 00:56:51,920
Speaker 4: Tomyros's Lenner Sorry go aheah, exactly right, if he didn't

1251
00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:54,280
Speaker 4: know what the word meant, he has to at least

1252
00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:56,799
Speaker 4: know that it's a slur because of the way he

1253
00:56:56,880 --> 00:57:00,319
Speaker 4: delivered it, and honestly, the culture of online game that

1254
00:57:00,360 --> 00:57:04,440
Speaker 4: it's not something that is completely foreign to coming up.

1255
00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:06,319
Speaker 4: So I mean, he knew he was saying something that

1256
00:57:06,400 --> 00:57:08,759
Speaker 4: was going to be offensive, and like Tass is saying,

1257
00:57:08,760 --> 00:57:11,759
Speaker 4: this is his chance now to educate himself and make

1258
00:57:11,840 --> 00:57:14,719
Speaker 4: some amends for the horrible things he said. Because he's

1259
00:57:14,719 --> 00:57:17,120
Speaker 4: being held accountable a little bit here, he should be

1260
00:57:17,120 --> 00:57:19,320
Speaker 4: held accountable a lot more, I would say, and I

1261
00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:21,800
Speaker 4: think that that's what the heater doing. He has a chance,

1262
00:57:21,840 --> 00:57:25,880
Speaker 4: though to actually turn this into a positive, just like

1263
00:57:25,920 --> 00:57:28,959
Speaker 4: Tim Hardaway was able to do. But right now, bad

1264
00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:31,400
Speaker 4: stuff from Meyers Leonard an easy call for worst of.

1265
00:57:31,360 --> 00:57:36,760
Speaker 2: The week, and he won't be wearing these gold jerseys

1266
00:57:36,800 --> 00:57:40,400
Speaker 2: that the Miami Heat also released this week. Listen. At

1267
00:57:40,440 --> 00:57:44,600
Speaker 2: first I didn't like them. I didn't like them, but

1268
00:57:44,680 --> 00:57:47,200
Speaker 2: I have been convinced, guys, you have this gold has

1269
00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:50,360
Speaker 2: nothing to do with their colorway, what's going on here?

1270
00:57:50,680 --> 00:57:54,439
Speaker 1: That's not gold? He's called his gold. It doesn't look

1271
00:57:54,480 --> 00:57:56,680
Speaker 1: gold where the goal?

1272
00:57:58,320 --> 00:58:02,440
Speaker 2: That's okay, okay, you're right, You're right, it's Mustardy, But

1273
00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:05,080
Speaker 2: I guess I'm convinced number one because they use the

1274
00:58:05,120 --> 00:58:09,440
Speaker 2: hashtag trophy gold. Yes, so it's gold, I guess. But

1275
00:58:09,440 --> 00:58:12,560
Speaker 2: then I saw the video because there's a theme here.

1276
00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:17,360
Speaker 2: It is about going after the Larry O'Brian Trophy, and

1277
00:58:17,920 --> 00:58:20,760
Speaker 2: this is their earned edition. Every team that makes the

1278
00:58:20,760 --> 00:58:25,120
Speaker 2: playoffs releases a special jersey. Only sixteen teams get jerseys,

1279
00:58:25,160 --> 00:58:28,040
Speaker 2: and their's is dedicated to getting the gold Ball, so

1280
00:58:28,360 --> 00:58:31,880
Speaker 2: the muster. I see this video, I see this gold

1281
00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:34,640
Speaker 2: ball being thrown around by Chris Bosh Terray Allen, and

1282
00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:37,000
Speaker 2: I'm sold. In Miami, he'd have enough of a culture

1283
00:58:37,280 --> 00:58:40,080
Speaker 2: to be able to go away from their colorways and

1284
00:58:40,240 --> 00:58:44,400
Speaker 2: rock something that's totally different. And UKG, I'm sure is happy.

1285
00:58:44,440 --> 00:58:46,280
Speaker 2: I don't know what UKG is, but I'm sure they're happy.

1286
00:58:47,320 --> 00:58:51,320
Speaker 2: This is good for I just I went from worst

1287
00:58:51,360 --> 00:58:55,040
Speaker 2: of the week. No way. You can't go miles away

1288
00:58:55,280 --> 00:58:58,160
Speaker 2: from your colorways. But if you got a theme and

1289
00:58:58,200 --> 00:58:59,520
Speaker 2: you back it up on the floor, and you back

1290
00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:01,880
Speaker 2: it up as a as an organization, because they are

1291
00:59:01,920 --> 00:59:07,760
Speaker 2: a stand up organization. Good, I'm okay with it.

1292
00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:12,040
Speaker 3: Okay, were where was Lebrun in that video though, well.

1293
00:59:12,280 --> 00:59:14,600
Speaker 2: He wasn't there at all that I mean.

1294
00:59:14,600 --> 00:59:18,000
Speaker 1: Because he's still the pra right for another franchise.

1295
00:59:18,720 --> 00:59:21,400
Speaker 3: I've disappointed that he didn't include Lebron.

1296
00:59:22,520 --> 00:59:25,760
Speaker 2: Come on, man, was Shaq not there? Wade not Shaq?

1297
00:59:25,920 --> 00:59:27,760
Speaker 3: White was in it? And Shack I think hugged him

1298
00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:28,720
Speaker 3: and then wash and right on.

1299
00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:31,720
Speaker 2: But it's like, come on, yeah, I guess what Skates

1300
00:59:31,800 --> 00:59:35,120
Speaker 2: is saying? No current players, so I don't think so.

1301
00:59:35,360 --> 00:59:37,640
Speaker 1: I mean a guy also wearing gold?

1302
00:59:38,720 --> 00:59:41,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, I love gold.

1303
00:59:43,240 --> 00:59:47,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's an issue. Anyone else that's it? Okay, No, No,

1304
00:59:48,160 --> 00:59:50,600
Speaker 1: the Knicks aren't going to get a little uh you know,

1305
00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:53,440
Speaker 1: Worse of the Week nominee for not knowing who Patrick

1306
00:59:53,480 --> 00:59:54,280
Speaker 1: Hughey is walking.

1307
00:59:56,960 --> 00:59:58,480
Speaker 2: Well, you know, well.

1308
00:59:58,280 --> 01:00:01,560
Speaker 3: It's yeah, it's mat some square garden security, isn't it.

1309
01:00:01,880 --> 01:00:02,959
Speaker 3: I'm only guessing from.

1310
01:00:02,920 --> 01:00:04,200
Speaker 4: Him somebody got a car.

1311
01:00:04,400 --> 01:00:08,360
Speaker 3: I'm only guessing play in franchise history.

1312
01:00:08,360 --> 01:00:11,360
Speaker 1: You can't walk. He's only Patrick.

1313
01:00:12,120 --> 01:00:15,000
Speaker 3: It's like twenty four years since he last played for

1314
01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:17,880
Speaker 3: the Knicks, so the security guards are probably, you know,

1315
01:00:18,560 --> 01:00:21,960
Speaker 3: so young that they maybe don't even recognize him. I'm

1316
01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:23,840
Speaker 3: just that's the only reason I can think of because

1317
01:00:23,880 --> 01:00:27,280
Speaker 3: I mean, he's a gigantic man, but he doesn't, you know,

1318
01:00:27,440 --> 01:00:28,760
Speaker 3: like when you look at the sort of Patrick h

1319
01:00:28,880 --> 01:00:30,960
Speaker 3: he's got the flat top, he's obviously in great shape,

1320
01:00:31,000 --> 01:00:33,480
Speaker 3: and he's wearing the big jersey. Maybe they just don't

1321
01:00:33,560 --> 01:00:35,760
Speaker 3: recognize him. I'm not sure. That's the only thing I

1322
01:00:35,800 --> 01:00:36,240
Speaker 3: can think of.

1323
01:00:36,360 --> 01:00:38,760
Speaker 1: I mean, he's a New York Knicks legend, the whole

1324
01:00:38,760 --> 01:00:43,760
Speaker 1: point of the line, and like you're saying, he's seven

1325
01:00:43,840 --> 01:00:46,960
Speaker 1: feet tall, Yeah, they're not mistaking him for somebody.

1326
01:00:46,960 --> 01:00:49,880
Speaker 4: But so far they've kicked Charles Oakley out of the building,

1327
01:00:50,160 --> 01:00:52,760
Speaker 4: They've kicked Spikey out of the building. They are having

1328
01:00:52,800 --> 01:00:56,680
Speaker 4: problems perhaps kicking Patrick Ewing out of the building. What

1329
01:00:56,800 --> 01:00:59,960
Speaker 4: other Knicks legends are left that they could disrespect, Like

1330
01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:03,000
Speaker 4: it's Clyde Frazier, that's it. Luckily he is super easy

1331
01:01:03,000 --> 01:01:05,280
Speaker 4: to recognize because he's got those patterns on you know

1332
01:01:05,320 --> 01:01:07,320
Speaker 4: what's him. Maybe that's what Patrick Ewing's got to do,

1333
01:01:07,360 --> 01:01:09,800
Speaker 4: either wear his jersey around or start being a guy

1334
01:01:09,840 --> 01:01:11,400
Speaker 4: that wears fancy suits.

1335
01:01:13,560 --> 01:01:16,360
Speaker 1: They're right, they're they're they're young. You're I'm sure you're

1336
01:01:16,400 --> 01:01:19,160
Speaker 1: right lately, but still that should be the first test

1337
01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:20,479
Speaker 1: they have to take to get the job.

1338
01:01:22,440 --> 01:01:22,960
Speaker 4: Who is that?

1339
01:01:24,120 --> 01:01:28,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you know, there's a lot of staffs, a

1340
01:01:28,080 --> 01:01:31,160
Speaker 2: lot of workforces that are have been decreased due to

1341
01:01:31,240 --> 01:01:34,280
Speaker 2: the coronavirus pandemic. Every time you call somebody, you get

1342
01:01:34,320 --> 01:01:38,040
Speaker 2: the line on the other end. Due to the coronavirus pandemic,

1343
01:01:38,080 --> 01:01:40,640
Speaker 2: we do not have as many people taking calls. Maybe

1344
01:01:40,640 --> 01:01:43,680
Speaker 2: the security staff is under the same circumstances. Maybe they

1345
01:01:43,760 --> 01:01:47,040
Speaker 2: just picked people off the street in New York. Who

1346
01:01:47,080 --> 01:01:48,520
Speaker 2: should know who Patrick Ewing is?

1347
01:01:48,560 --> 01:01:53,760
Speaker 1: Okay, we slipped it in there. Okay, let's get to Masterclass.

1348
01:01:53,760 --> 01:02:03,720
Speaker 1: What I learned this week? My turn with Masterclass. What

1349
01:02:03,800 --> 01:02:06,600
Speaker 1: I learned this week and this week, guys, I was

1350
01:02:06,640 --> 01:02:11,400
Speaker 1: going back to my man Ron Finley teaching me some

1351
01:02:11,640 --> 01:02:15,480
Speaker 1: gardening tips on master Class. Yes, now, what I love

1352
01:02:15,520 --> 01:02:20,720
Speaker 1: about this Typically you associate gardening with like a little

1353
01:02:20,760 --> 01:02:24,080
Speaker 1: old lady in a straw hat. That's where eye mine goes.

1354
01:02:24,840 --> 01:02:26,560
Speaker 1: Ron is the opposite of that.

1355
01:02:26,600 --> 01:02:27,280
Speaker 4: This guy is.

1356
01:02:27,400 --> 01:02:31,520
Speaker 1: Cool as shit. Man. He's called the Gangster gardener for

1357
01:02:31,560 --> 01:02:36,120
Speaker 1: a reason. His voice incredible, and he makes what I

1358
01:02:36,200 --> 01:02:39,680
Speaker 1: find at times gardening like could be a daunting topic

1359
01:02:40,520 --> 01:02:44,240
Speaker 1: seems super accessible and super actually easy he shows you

1360
01:02:44,280 --> 01:02:47,880
Speaker 1: how to plant sweet potatoes very easy. Take a sweet potato,

1361
01:02:48,000 --> 01:02:51,360
Speaker 1: throw it in the ground, plant sweet potatoe, and like

1362
01:02:51,400 --> 01:02:53,400
Speaker 1: he uses like a bunch of things for like a pot,

1363
01:02:53,520 --> 01:02:56,240
Speaker 1: uses a boot for a pot. He's like, anything can

1364
01:02:56,280 --> 01:02:58,400
Speaker 1: be a pot as long as it got drainage. It's

1365
01:02:58,400 --> 01:03:00,840
Speaker 1: a pot. That hat you're wearing, tray, that's a pot.

1366
01:03:00,960 --> 01:03:03,919
Speaker 1: He grows. Absolutely, it'd be an honor to grow something

1367
01:03:03,960 --> 01:03:07,320
Speaker 1: in that. Larry lucat So he also talks a lot

1368
01:03:07,360 --> 01:03:09,880
Speaker 1: about dirt. Ron Finley does the different elements to it

1369
01:03:09,920 --> 01:03:12,439
Speaker 1: and breaking it all down. He talks composting tasks. You'd

1370
01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:15,200
Speaker 1: really like that, how that doesn't need to be complicated either.

1371
01:03:15,600 --> 01:03:16,920
Speaker 1: I just love it. But at the end of the day,

1372
01:03:17,000 --> 01:03:20,320
Speaker 1: the biggest takeaway I took from Ron Finley's class on

1373
01:03:20,440 --> 01:03:24,360
Speaker 1: gardening don't be afraid to just try, you know. And

1374
01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:25,800
Speaker 1: I get caught up in that, you know, I think

1375
01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:27,800
Speaker 1: a lot of people do. I don't want to screw

1376
01:03:27,880 --> 01:03:30,280
Speaker 1: up this, or I might kill that, or I don't

1377
01:03:30,320 --> 01:03:32,320
Speaker 1: really know how to do it. Just try it. At

1378
01:03:32,360 --> 01:03:33,480
Speaker 1: the end of the day, just give it a go

1379
01:03:33,760 --> 01:03:37,160
Speaker 1: and and learn on the fly. So, yeah, keep it

1380
01:03:37,160 --> 01:03:38,720
Speaker 1: as simple as that. I don't know, Lee, have you

1381
01:03:38,760 --> 01:03:39,360
Speaker 1: watched that one.

1382
01:03:40,080 --> 01:03:43,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, well my wife, Yeah, my wife's gotten through it.

1383
01:03:43,320 --> 01:03:45,080
Speaker 3: I sort of dipped in and out of it. But yeah,

1384
01:03:45,080 --> 01:03:46,920
Speaker 3: we talked about him because he says, you know, we

1385
01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:49,520
Speaker 3: call it dirt when it's soil because it grows. All

1386
01:03:49,600 --> 01:03:52,480
Speaker 3: have our vegetables and all our things. And that's the

1387
01:03:52,480 --> 01:03:54,800
Speaker 3: thing with my garlic. That's what I did learn. You know,

1388
01:03:54,840 --> 01:03:56,520
Speaker 3: I had too much garlic in the one plot, and

1389
01:03:56,560 --> 01:03:59,320
Speaker 3: when I took the other garlics out, the other one flourish,

1390
01:03:59,400 --> 01:04:07,479
Speaker 3: the galloping. I love his delivery. I just I think

1391
01:04:07,800 --> 01:04:09,760
Speaker 3: I think he's great the gangs today, just how he

1392
01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:12,040
Speaker 3: gets the message across and he just says, look, it's

1393
01:04:12,400 --> 01:04:14,760
Speaker 3: like you're saying, it's not super complicated. You just have

1394
01:04:14,880 --> 01:04:17,640
Speaker 3: to take your time and learn a little bit and uh,

1395
01:04:17,760 --> 01:04:20,240
Speaker 3: you know, treat it with care and respect, and you

1396
01:04:20,240 --> 01:04:22,680
Speaker 3: can grow some incredible stuff. So get out there and

1397
01:04:22,680 --> 01:04:23,000
Speaker 3: do it.

1398
01:04:23,840 --> 01:04:26,240
Speaker 4: Do it. Plants want to grow? Is that what he says.

1399
01:04:26,240 --> 01:04:28,160
Speaker 4: They're like, they want to grow. Put them in the ground.

1400
01:04:28,280 --> 01:04:31,880
Speaker 4: Something's gonna happen. I love I think this one is

1401
01:04:32,120 --> 01:04:35,040
Speaker 4: worth watching just for the visuals of it. That garden

1402
01:04:35,040 --> 01:04:38,400
Speaker 4: he's sitting in the backyard like a completely wild garden.

1403
01:04:38,560 --> 01:04:40,520
Speaker 4: That looks awesome. That's what I want my backyard to

1404
01:04:40,520 --> 01:04:41,200
Speaker 4: look like someday.

1405
01:04:41,480 --> 01:04:43,120
Speaker 1: I was going to ask you tasks, like you've got

1406
01:04:43,120 --> 01:04:46,400
Speaker 1: the new house, now did your your compost make it

1407
01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:48,600
Speaker 1: over to the new place? Like are the neighbors going

1408
01:04:48,640 --> 01:04:50,320
Speaker 1: to be judging it is a nice compost bin out

1409
01:04:50,360 --> 01:04:51,680
Speaker 1: in the back or what's going on over there?

1410
01:04:51,760 --> 01:04:54,840
Speaker 2: Oh? I got the bend for sure. Yeah that is yeah. Yeah.

1411
01:04:55,160 --> 01:04:58,760
Speaker 2: I blessed my land, my prior land, my old home

1412
01:04:58,840 --> 01:05:01,480
Speaker 2: with with my old though. I mean, it was a

1413
01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:04,840
Speaker 2: bit of a it was. It was a little bit

1414
01:05:04,880 --> 01:05:07,120
Speaker 2: of work taking out all the dirt from my compost

1415
01:05:07,160 --> 01:05:09,360
Speaker 2: bin and spreading it on the land. But my land

1416
01:05:09,400 --> 01:05:12,200
Speaker 2: was very happy with me after I did. And I did,

1417
01:05:12,480 --> 01:05:15,480
Speaker 2: I'm not sure, I've got to ask mister Finley about this,

1418
01:05:15,800 --> 01:05:19,160
Speaker 2: because I stuck my hand in there into my compost

1419
01:05:19,240 --> 01:05:22,240
Speaker 2: bare handed, because I was an idiot. I just I

1420
01:05:22,280 --> 01:05:24,200
Speaker 2: was just too lazy to go grab my gloves, and

1421
01:05:24,320 --> 01:05:28,000
Speaker 2: I literally I felt something like poke both my fingers

1422
01:05:28,040 --> 01:05:30,680
Speaker 2: and I thought, okay, I don't know what what in

1423
01:05:30,680 --> 01:05:35,200
Speaker 2: an eggshell perhaps, But then then literally it happened on

1424
01:05:35,200 --> 01:05:37,600
Speaker 2: my other hand like, this is weird. This is just weird.

1425
01:05:37,600 --> 01:05:40,480
Speaker 2: I do break down my eggshells. I think the compost

1426
01:05:40,600 --> 01:05:42,920
Speaker 2: was so on fire. It gets so hot that it

1427
01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:46,040
Speaker 2: literally burnt me because then I had blisters. It gets

1428
01:05:46,040 --> 01:05:49,480
Speaker 2: so hot, literally, mister Finley, I wonder how hot does

1429
01:05:49,520 --> 01:05:52,480
Speaker 2: that get. I think that the process in there could

1430
01:05:52,520 --> 01:05:54,840
Speaker 2: be like super duper hot, because yeah, I blisters on

1431
01:05:54,920 --> 01:05:59,480
Speaker 2: all my fingers. It's really weird. It was really really weird.

1432
01:06:00,040 --> 01:06:02,560
Speaker 1: I Finley too bit of a renaissance man because I

1433
01:06:02,560 --> 01:06:05,040
Speaker 1: was reading up on him. He was like a fashion

1434
01:06:05,160 --> 01:06:09,400
Speaker 1: designer for like professional athletes in addition to doing all

1435
01:06:09,480 --> 01:06:10,280
Speaker 1: this Yeah.

1436
01:06:10,400 --> 01:06:13,560
Speaker 3: Wow yeah, no, clue, isn't it. Yeah?

1437
01:06:13,600 --> 01:06:15,920
Speaker 1: I know this guy can do it all. He's literally

1438
01:06:16,000 --> 01:06:17,600
Speaker 1: the master of Masterclass.

1439
01:06:18,120 --> 01:06:20,040
Speaker 4: When you released that one, so good?

1440
01:06:20,320 --> 01:06:24,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, well I highly recommend that one. It is fantastic stuff. Okay,

1441
01:06:24,280 --> 01:06:29,479
Speaker 1: So that is what I learned this week in Masterclass. Okay,

1442
01:06:29,520 --> 01:06:30,640
Speaker 1: let's get to tweeted the night.

1443
01:06:32,320 --> 01:06:38,120
Speaker 2: Tweet out the night, Wow, tweet the night.

1444
01:06:38,680 --> 01:06:42,880
Speaker 1: Keeping it simple because we talked on yesterday's show about

1445
01:06:43,400 --> 01:06:46,200
Speaker 1: all the Earned edition jerseys, and one of them was

1446
01:06:46,240 --> 01:06:48,400
Speaker 1: the Miami Heat one. We talked about that we were

1447
01:06:48,400 --> 01:06:50,360
Speaker 1: down on it. Task just talked that he doesn't mind

1448
01:06:50,920 --> 01:06:52,720
Speaker 1: the jersey that much. But we got into the Great

1449
01:06:52,840 --> 01:06:55,360
Speaker 1: Jerseys at one point, and I love this tweet from

1450
01:06:55,400 --> 01:07:00,880
Speaker 1: Larry Fisherman at Eaker. This is who he was designing

1451
01:07:00,920 --> 01:07:04,000
Speaker 1: great jerseys for. And if you're listening to the podcast,

1452
01:07:04,120 --> 01:07:10,000
Speaker 1: it's a dog looking at that great Clippers jersey howling

1453
01:07:10,120 --> 01:07:12,240
Speaker 1: at this too. I thought it was so damn funny.

1454
01:07:14,400 --> 01:07:15,960
Speaker 1: I just said, I actually have a lot of questions

1455
01:07:16,000 --> 01:07:18,080
Speaker 1: about this photo, but I we'll save it for another day.

1456
01:07:18,320 --> 01:07:20,520
Speaker 1: But yeah, this dog is designing these great jerseys. What

1457
01:07:20,560 --> 01:07:22,920
Speaker 1: do you think about those ones? Tasks? Are you a

1458
01:07:22,920 --> 01:07:24,480
Speaker 1: fan of the especially that Clippers one?

1459
01:07:25,360 --> 01:07:28,880
Speaker 2: You know, the mannequin is so important. I think on

1460
01:07:28,920 --> 01:07:32,440
Speaker 2: these jerseys they make them look so good, that tall,

1461
01:07:33,320 --> 01:07:36,400
Speaker 2: strapping mannequin. It's like any jersey would look good on

1462
01:07:36,560 --> 01:07:40,280
Speaker 2: the I don't know. I didn't. I think they're getting

1463
01:07:40,280 --> 01:07:42,439
Speaker 2: better with the lighting and the photos. Like I didn't

1464
01:07:42,440 --> 01:07:44,120
Speaker 2: hate it. I think on the court, I think on

1465
01:07:44,160 --> 01:07:45,919
Speaker 2: the court I would hate it. I know I don't

1466
01:07:45,960 --> 01:07:49,000
Speaker 2: like great jerseys either, but I don't know. You get

1467
01:07:49,000 --> 01:07:51,400
Speaker 2: a cute dog and a photo. I don't know.

1468
01:07:52,200 --> 01:07:54,920
Speaker 1: The dog helps the dog, does it definitely helps.

1469
01:07:54,920 --> 01:07:58,439
Speaker 4: But yeah, Blazers wore their grays last night. I didn't

1470
01:07:58,480 --> 01:08:00,680
Speaker 4: realize there was gray looking as they were going to be.

1471
01:08:01,040 --> 01:08:02,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was one of.

1472
01:08:01,960 --> 01:08:04,760
Speaker 4: The better gray jerseys I thought that we've seen. Now,

1473
01:08:04,760 --> 01:08:07,440
Speaker 4: having seen it on the court previous, I would probably

1474
01:08:07,480 --> 01:08:11,400
Speaker 4: remember the Nets wore a gray one that had sleeves

1475
01:08:11,400 --> 01:08:14,000
Speaker 4: back in the day that looked like a Brooklyn Dodgers uniform.

1476
01:08:14,440 --> 01:08:16,800
Speaker 4: It just looks so sweaty. You got to go really

1477
01:08:16,880 --> 01:08:19,000
Speaker 4: light gray. I do believe that was the key with

1478
01:08:19,040 --> 01:08:19,640
Speaker 4: the Blazers.

1479
01:08:19,880 --> 01:08:22,040
Speaker 1: And that's the thing. I will admit that you see

1480
01:08:22,080 --> 01:08:24,679
Speaker 1: the photos of the jerseys, be it on the mannequin

1481
01:08:24,840 --> 01:08:27,360
Speaker 1: or not, and you're like, okay, you have a reaction

1482
01:08:27,439 --> 01:08:29,559
Speaker 1: to it. Oh, I hate these, I like these whatever.

1483
01:08:29,840 --> 01:08:30,160
Speaker 4: You do.

1484
01:08:30,320 --> 01:08:34,000
Speaker 1: Have to see them on the court against another team's

1485
01:08:34,080 --> 01:08:37,920
Speaker 1: color palette with the lights and of course with you know,

1486
01:08:37,920 --> 01:08:39,840
Speaker 1: with the shorts if you can, and the whole look,

1487
01:08:39,880 --> 01:08:42,000
Speaker 1: and then you sometimes change your opinion a little bit

1488
01:08:42,000 --> 01:08:45,719
Speaker 1: on them. That's fair, But I love that great stuff.

1489
01:08:45,800 --> 01:08:48,400
Speaker 1: Larry Fisherman with tweet of the night. All right, pick

1490
01:08:48,400 --> 01:08:52,880
Speaker 1: them results from last night. Celtic's Nets. Nets were wearing

1491
01:08:52,920 --> 01:08:55,280
Speaker 1: their new earned addition jerseys, So I thought they looked

1492
01:08:55,320 --> 01:08:59,280
Speaker 1: pretty good with those, and they got the victory as

1493
01:08:59,280 --> 01:09:02,000
Speaker 1: we talked about taking over with the forty points. So

1494
01:09:02,040 --> 01:09:03,559
Speaker 1: that's a win for Tray, a win for Lee, a

1495
01:09:03,600 --> 01:09:06,479
Speaker 1: win for me, and I desperately needed that. Task gets

1496
01:09:06,479 --> 01:09:08,400
Speaker 1: his first l in the month of March, but he

1497
01:09:08,439 --> 01:09:10,639
Speaker 1: still leads the way. Task is five and one, Tray's

1498
01:09:10,680 --> 01:09:12,880
Speaker 1: four and two, leads three and three, and I'm two

1499
01:09:12,920 --> 01:09:14,840
Speaker 1: and four. What's tonight's game?

1500
01:09:14,880 --> 01:09:20,560
Speaker 2: Task Nuggets versus the Grizzlies. Two teams feeling good about themselves.

1501
01:09:20,640 --> 01:09:23,120
Speaker 2: This is game five of a West Coast trip, or

1502
01:09:23,200 --> 01:09:25,599
Speaker 2: five of a road trip for the Denver Nuggets. They've

1503
01:09:25,600 --> 01:09:28,880
Speaker 2: won their first four on the trip. Well, Memphis they

1504
01:09:28,920 --> 01:09:32,400
Speaker 2: played on Wednesday in that opening night after the All

1505
01:09:32,439 --> 01:09:35,160
Speaker 2: Star Break, and they got a win against the Washington Wizards.

1506
01:09:35,200 --> 01:09:38,680
Speaker 2: So Denver hot, feeling good, but it's a long time ago.

1507
01:09:38,880 --> 01:09:41,360
Speaker 2: Can they keep it up against the Grizzlies, who are

1508
01:09:41,400 --> 01:09:43,639
Speaker 2: plus three and a half. They can lose by three

1509
01:09:44,200 --> 01:09:47,439
Speaker 2: points and still get you the victory here, So Denver

1510
01:09:47,600 --> 01:09:49,639
Speaker 2: at Memphis plus three and a half, skeets, why don't

1511
01:09:49,640 --> 01:09:50,280
Speaker 2: you get it started?

1512
01:09:50,400 --> 01:09:52,640
Speaker 1: This one's tough because I think both of these teams,

1513
01:09:52,720 --> 01:09:55,320
Speaker 1: as we talked about yesterday, too, are prime to go

1514
01:09:55,360 --> 01:09:57,280
Speaker 1: on a bit of a second half run here. I

1515
01:09:57,280 --> 01:09:59,479
Speaker 1: have high hopes for both of these teams, Nuggets to

1516
01:09:59,560 --> 01:10:04,440
Speaker 1: the Nugget Nuggets, the Nuggets to climb up the rankings

1517
01:10:05,360 --> 01:10:08,600
Speaker 1: in terms of the Western Conference, and then the Grizzlies to,

1518
01:10:09,040 --> 01:10:10,920
Speaker 1: of course, like get into the playoffs. I think the

1519
01:10:10,960 --> 01:10:12,920
Speaker 1: Grizzlies are being slept on, so I'm going to go

1520
01:10:13,160 --> 01:10:15,920
Speaker 1: with the Memphis Grizzlies to at least cover in a

1521
01:10:15,960 --> 01:10:18,679
Speaker 1: close S game. Give me Memphis, Trey, what do you think?

1522
01:10:19,479 --> 01:10:23,040
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go the opposite of Skeets because he took

1523
01:10:23,080 --> 01:10:25,000
Speaker 4: the Grizzlies as his second half team. I took the

1524
01:10:25,080 --> 01:10:27,360
Speaker 4: Nuggets as my second half team, and it's their first

1525
01:10:27,400 --> 01:10:27,880
Speaker 4: game back.

1526
01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:31,639
Speaker 2: Gimme Denver, perfect Lee, I too.

1527
01:10:31,520 --> 01:10:33,920
Speaker 3: Will take the Nuggets in this one. I think it

1528
01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:36,479
Speaker 3: is going to be a close game, but four points

1529
01:10:36,520 --> 01:10:39,679
Speaker 3: I think favors Denver enough, so I will take Nikola

1530
01:10:39,760 --> 01:10:43,599
Speaker 3: Yokich and Jamal Murray and hopefully my man fucked Undu

1531
01:10:43,800 --> 01:10:44,200
Speaker 3: is back.

1532
01:10:46,479 --> 01:10:48,479

1533
01:10:48,520 --> 01:10:49,360

01:10:52,320 --> 01:10:53,439
Speaker 3: boys and I could do.

1536
01:10:53,439 --> 01:10:57,200
Speaker 1: It special special moment. So you got to task.

1537
01:10:57,320 --> 01:11:01,599
Speaker 2: That was a great get app between Fat and Kondo. Right,

1538
01:11:02,960 --> 01:11:05,559
Speaker 2: I will go with the opposite of Lee. I like

1539
01:11:05,600 --> 01:11:09,559
Speaker 2: the Grizzlies. Okay, why not? They now have thirty nine

1540
01:11:09,640 --> 01:11:12,400
Speaker 2: games in sixty six nights. Is that a lot? I mean,

1541
01:11:12,600 --> 01:11:14,679
Speaker 2: I guess it is. It's hard. It's hard to wrap

1542
01:11:14,680 --> 01:11:17,400
Speaker 2: your head around those big numbers five and seven, I understand.

1543

1579
01:13:02,560 --> 01:13:06,400
Speaker 5: Maybe because it was like the first movie where I

1580
01:13:06,479 --> 01:13:08,920

1590
01:13:33,760 --> 01:13:35,599

01:13:35,640 --> 01:13:36,160
Speaker 5: and go.

1592
01:13:37,439 --> 01:13:38,000

Speaker 2: All Right, Trey, what's something you can't quit?

1600
01:14:03,360 --> 01:14:06,360
Speaker 4: I think it was February twelfth that that video of

1601
01:14:06,400 --> 01:14:09,360
Speaker 4: the guy singing Jack and Diane but every lyric is

1602
01:14:09,400 --> 01:14:12,400
Speaker 4: sucking on a chili dog came out and since then

1603
01:14:12,600 --> 01:14:15,479
Speaker 4: it's been exactly a month, and I've called my kids

1604
01:14:15,600 --> 01:14:18,559
Speaker 4: chili dogs for the entire time since then. Dad, why

1605
01:14:18,560 --> 01:14:21,439
Speaker 4: do you call us chili dogs because you're chili dogs?

1606
01:14:21,479 --> 01:14:23,840
Speaker 4: Because I don't really want them to be walking around

1607
01:14:23,880 --> 01:14:25,599
Speaker 4: just saying sucking on a chili dog. So I don't

1608
01:14:25,640 --> 01:14:29,080
Speaker 4: go into the full explanation. But it's a great name

1609
01:14:29,160 --> 01:14:31,840
Speaker 4: for your kids. And I actually just heard Jack and

1610
01:14:31,880 --> 01:14:34,400
Speaker 4: Diane on the radio for the first time since I

1611
01:14:34,479 --> 01:14:37,360
Speaker 4: heard this, And when you finally hear it again, it's

1612
01:14:37,439 --> 01:14:39,040
Speaker 4: just gonna make you laugh. It's gonna make you laugh.

1613
01:14:39,040 --> 01:14:42,280
Speaker 4: You'll never sing it the same after hearing that guy

1614
01:14:42,439 --> 01:14:44,080

1617
01:14:50,080 --> 01:14:53,000

01:18:04,880 --> 01:18:08,800
Speaker 2: There's not enough of a base anyway, next one here.

1679
01:18:08,840 --> 01:18:11,160
Speaker 2: So the slam Donk contest happened at All Star weekend.

1680
01:18:11,200 --> 01:18:13,160
Speaker 2: It was kind of entertaining and then it was over.

1681
01:18:13,960 --> 01:18:16,479
Speaker 2: It was quick, It wasn't bad. It just wasn't all

1682
01:18:16,479 --> 01:18:19,600
Speaker 2: that memorable. What's something that was mildly amusing at the

1683
01:18:19,640 --> 01:18:26,400
Speaker 2: time but you barely remember it now. JDM Mike Baron.

1684
01:18:26,840 --> 01:18:31,040
Speaker 1: Remember Mike Baron. Baron was the jam loved that game.

1685
01:18:31,640 --> 01:18:34,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean that was I guess I think it

1686
01:18:34,400 --> 01:18:38,360
Speaker 5: was twenty eleven because I remember playing at NonStop when

1687
01:18:38,400 --> 01:18:41,960
Speaker 5: we were on the No Season Required Tour. So I'm

1688
01:18:41,960 --> 01:18:45,600
Speaker 5: obsessed with that game and I haven't played it, I

1689
01:18:45,680 --> 01:18:50,240
Speaker 5: don't think since twenty eleven. I barely remember, you know,

1690
01:18:50,360 --> 01:18:54,639
Speaker 5: the paths or any of the tricks of the trade.

1691
01:18:54,680 --> 01:18:57,120
Speaker 5: You know, I remember it being really fun, but it

1692
01:18:57,160 --> 01:19:00,160
Speaker 5: was just it was weird to be so into something

1693
01:19:00,160 --> 01:19:03,439
Speaker 5: and then it's just completely gone, completely gone.

1694
01:19:03,479 --> 01:19:05,680
Speaker 1: We were so into Maddio and I. We would like

1695
01:19:05,760 --> 01:19:08,920
Speaker 1: share text back and forth, like how to beat levels

1696
01:19:08,960 --> 01:19:11,880
Speaker 1: and like, oh I found this YouTube video a trick

1697
01:19:11,920 --> 01:19:14,640
Speaker 1: here to get the motorcycle up onto this Like, uh,

1698
01:19:15,240 --> 01:19:17,599
Speaker 1: that was a great game. Does it still exist? Bike

1699
01:19:17,640 --> 01:19:19,519
Speaker 1: Baring It was an iPhone now, great question.

1700
01:19:20,240 --> 01:19:23,880
Speaker 5: I've definitely seen variations of it, like dirt by like

1701
01:19:24,000 --> 01:19:28,840
Speaker 5: on PlayStation and stuff, you know, like same physics, you know,

1702
01:19:29,040 --> 01:19:31,080
Speaker 5: but not the same not the same guy on the

1703
01:19:31,120 --> 01:19:32,120
Speaker 5: little moped, you know.

1704
01:19:32,560 --> 01:19:34,280
Speaker 1: Was there a little dog or cat on the back

1705
01:19:34,320 --> 01:19:35,000
Speaker 1: of his bike too?

1706
01:19:35,320 --> 01:19:35,840
Speaker 4: There was a cat?

1707
01:19:35,920 --> 01:19:37,600
Speaker 5: Yeah right, you're right.

1708
01:19:37,920 --> 01:19:40,679
Speaker 4: It's still around in skeets. I gotta say, the bike

1709
01:19:40,720 --> 01:19:44,120
Speaker 4: Baron kind of looks like you what little beard going

1710
01:19:44,160 --> 01:19:46,200
Speaker 4: on right now? This could literally be you if you

1711
01:19:46,240 --> 01:19:50,240
Speaker 4: get like a shear wing lined leather jacket. Okay, yeah,

1712
01:19:50,360 --> 01:19:54,759
Speaker 4: Bike Bearon's still in the mix. Incredible four point four stars.

1713
01:19:54,800 --> 01:19:56,000
Speaker 4: Maybe they released a new one.

1714
01:19:56,360 --> 01:19:57,160
Speaker 1: I'm looking it up.

1715
01:19:57,920 --> 01:20:01,960
Speaker 2: Bike Baron is back, baby all right, Tray. Something mildly

1716
01:20:02,000 --> 01:20:03,880
Speaker 2: amusing at the time, but you barely remember it.

1717
01:20:04,479 --> 01:20:08,000
Speaker 4: Tiger King came out a year ago this week. The

1718
01:20:08,040 --> 01:20:10,360
Speaker 4: only thing I remember is that it starred Joe Exotic

1719
01:20:10,400 --> 01:20:14,400
Speaker 4: and Carol Baskin. What did they do? I don't know, literally,

1720
01:20:14,439 --> 01:20:17,000
Speaker 4: no idea. It was like the hottest show in the

1721
01:20:17,040 --> 01:20:22,840
Speaker 4: world for the month of March last year, basically and now,

1722
01:20:22,920 --> 01:20:24,720
Speaker 4: like I'll see a meme pop up every once in

1723
01:20:24,760 --> 01:20:28,720
Speaker 4: a while. I think Alex Wong recently posted the one

1724
01:20:28,760 --> 01:20:31,880
Speaker 4: where he's like, I'll never financially recover from this.

1725
01:20:33,320 --> 01:20:34,160
Speaker 2: What was that saying?

1726
01:20:34,240 --> 01:20:36,280
Speaker 4: But literally, what was that seeing? What was he not

1727
01:20:36,320 --> 01:20:40,400
Speaker 4: financially recovering from? Maybe the tiger biting the woman in

1728
01:20:40,479 --> 01:20:43,120
Speaker 4: the cage? I don't know. I don't know, but I

1729
01:20:43,200 --> 01:20:47,400
Speaker 4: was in. I watched the reunion special with Joel McHale.

1730
01:20:47,560 --> 01:20:51,360
Speaker 4: Joel McHale, Yeah from his bed, basically right, yeah, totally in.

1731
01:20:51,560 --> 01:20:53,519
Speaker 4: But what happened? Are they going to do a sequel

1732
01:20:54,760 --> 01:20:57,280
Speaker 4: Tiger and the Kings whatever? I don't know. I think

1733
01:20:57,320 --> 01:20:59,280
Speaker 4: the guy just got out, right, Joe Exotic, I think

1734
01:20:59,280 --> 01:21:02,760
Speaker 4: got out. He was expecting a big, big something or

1735
01:21:02,800 --> 01:21:05,000
Speaker 4: another big holabaloo for him getting out. He had a

1736
01:21:05,040 --> 01:21:08,120
Speaker 4: limo to take him home from jail. But yeah, he's

1737
01:21:08,120 --> 01:21:10,120
Speaker 4: still out there. Well, I guess he maybe we'll run

1738
01:21:10,120 --> 01:21:13,519
Speaker 4: for president again here and not too long so run

1739
01:21:13,560 --> 01:21:14,120
Speaker 4: it back.

1740
01:21:14,360 --> 01:21:16,920
Speaker 1: There was some crazy characters in that. Now I started

1741
01:21:16,960 --> 01:21:18,600
Speaker 1: like I forgot the both. You just remind me the

1742
01:21:18,600 --> 01:21:21,799
Speaker 1: woman that didn't have an arm because like a tiger

1743
01:21:22,080 --> 01:21:25,559
Speaker 1: ripped off for ar she still worked there. Loved it.

1744
01:21:26,000 --> 01:21:28,000
Speaker 2: Oh my god, she loved it too much.

1745
01:21:28,040 --> 01:21:29,800
Speaker 1: I think the guy like somebody gets shot in it,

1746
01:21:29,880 --> 01:21:31,879
Speaker 1: right suddenly, like it's really sad, right.

1747
01:21:32,000 --> 01:21:37,960
Speaker 4: Or no he kills kill kill l right, yeah King?

1748
01:21:38,479 --> 01:21:41,519
Speaker 2: That was that was that one of his h his partners,

1749
01:21:41,560 --> 01:21:42,280
Speaker 2: one of his letters.

1750
01:21:42,560 --> 01:21:44,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right, yep.

1751
01:21:44,400 --> 01:21:48,000
Speaker 2: Because he went through a few, all right, uh something

1752
01:21:48,080 --> 01:21:51,760
Speaker 2: that a leg Somebody said, my god, he's got like

1753
01:21:51,960 --> 01:21:52,880
Speaker 2: bleached blonde hair.

1754
01:21:53,080 --> 01:21:53,600
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1755
01:21:54,040 --> 01:21:55,479
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's a there's a lot of characters.

1756
01:21:55,520 --> 01:21:56,920
Speaker 1: Whole lot happened Tiger King.

1757
01:21:57,200 --> 01:21:59,800
Speaker 4: Remember at the time, like everyone's like, oh man, there's

1758
01:21:59,800 --> 01:22:00,840
Speaker 4: a going on on this.

1759
01:22:01,040 --> 01:22:05,120
Speaker 1: Yeah what happened though? H yeah, good point. I guess

1760
01:22:05,160 --> 01:22:09,639
Speaker 1: similar to JD. But I'm going much further back, mildly

1761
01:22:09,680 --> 01:22:11,400
Speaker 1: amusing at the time, but I barely remember it now.

1762
01:22:11,880 --> 01:22:15,160
Speaker 1: Rock band there was, you know, there was a summer

1763
01:22:15,200 --> 01:22:18,439
Speaker 1: of rock band. I'm convinced like everybody had one summer

1764
01:22:18,479 --> 01:22:20,400
Speaker 1: of rock band if you're old enough, where it was

1765
01:22:20,439 --> 01:22:23,240
Speaker 1: like the biggest game. Uh, and people are like bringing

1766
01:22:23,280 --> 01:22:26,920
Speaker 1: it to parties and bringing it to cottage weekends and

1767
01:22:26,960 --> 01:22:29,960
Speaker 1: everybody's loving it. And uh, you know you could get

1768
01:22:30,000 --> 01:22:32,280
Speaker 1: the drum kit and ever along with the guitar and

1769
01:22:32,280 --> 01:22:35,719
Speaker 1: stuff like that. Yeah, but uh, you know what happened

1770
01:22:35,760 --> 01:22:37,920
Speaker 1: to that, just like it was gone, it was here

1771
01:22:37,920 --> 01:22:39,960
Speaker 1: and it was gone and it was it was a

1772
01:22:40,520 --> 01:22:44,240
Speaker 1: it lived a burned bright Yeah, that's my answer.

1773
01:22:44,400 --> 01:22:46,759
Speaker 4: You think if you plugged one in, Uh, if somebody

1774
01:22:46,800 --> 01:22:49,759
Speaker 4: had a garage a rock band and sit here, fired

1775
01:22:49,880 --> 01:22:51,760
Speaker 4: up play it, do you think you would have the

1776
01:22:51,880 --> 01:22:54,599
Speaker 4: muscle memory to be you know, like kill the solo

1777
01:22:54,680 --> 01:22:57,800
Speaker 4: and carry on my wayward son, Probably not. You're hitting

1778
01:22:57,800 --> 01:22:58,639
Speaker 4: the tremolo bar.

1779
01:22:58,880 --> 01:23:02,920
Speaker 1: Yeah. Somebody said Hero was always better. I mean the

1780
01:23:02,960 --> 01:23:04,800
Speaker 1: same thing you talking about.

1781
01:23:06,240 --> 01:23:10,040
Speaker 4: The guitar was the best part fun, But the guitar

1782
01:23:10,120 --> 01:23:11,080
Speaker 4: was the best part for sure.

1783
01:23:11,200 --> 01:23:14,160
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, And the singing was always bogus. Remember like

1784
01:23:14,400 --> 01:23:16,320
Speaker 1: you didn't even need to sing the lyrics. You could

1785
01:23:16,320 --> 01:23:18,439
Speaker 1: just like sort of like hum along as long as

1786
01:23:18,439 --> 01:23:20,960
Speaker 1: you sort of like, I don't know, registered it at

1787
01:23:20,960 --> 01:23:23,640
Speaker 1: the right time. It felt like totally you could hit it.

1788
01:23:23,680 --> 01:23:24,200
Speaker 1: But it was fun.

1789
01:23:24,800 --> 01:23:26,760
Speaker 4: I remember when the Beatles one came out. I was

1790
01:23:26,800 --> 01:23:28,880
Speaker 4: so excited for that one, and they always would give

1791
01:23:28,880 --> 01:23:31,000
Speaker 4: you if you're the singer, they give you bonus points

1792
01:23:31,040 --> 01:23:36,559
Speaker 4: for like ad libbing during certain So every time, every

1793
01:23:36,560 --> 01:23:37,720
Speaker 4: time there was an ad lib in that one, I

1794
01:23:37,720 --> 01:23:44,040
Speaker 4: would just say the batel the beatels.

1795
01:23:47,280 --> 01:23:49,280
Speaker 1: I think I just was reminded of it too, because

1796
01:23:49,640 --> 01:23:52,639
Speaker 1: there's probably like a house of highlights Instagram where it's

1797
01:23:52,640 --> 01:23:55,360
Speaker 1: like just showing people doing crazy things, like people doing

1798
01:23:55,439 --> 01:23:57,840
Speaker 1: Rubik's cubes like blindfold and st all of that. And

1799
01:23:57,880 --> 01:24:02,000
Speaker 1: there's one where like the like just shredding. I think

1800
01:24:02,000 --> 01:24:05,160
Speaker 1: it's Guitar Hero, like the toughest level at one hundred

1801
01:24:05,200 --> 01:24:07,840
Speaker 1: and fifty speed or whatever it is, and it is

1802
01:24:07,920 --> 01:24:11,400
Speaker 1: like there's like just's like girlfriend just sitting right beside him,

1803
01:24:11,439 --> 01:24:13,920
Speaker 1: like he obviosly does this all the time. She seems

1804
01:24:13,920 --> 01:24:16,040
Speaker 1: to be like I guess they're live streaming or on

1805
01:24:16,080 --> 01:24:19,519
Speaker 1: Twitter something. He's just like going crazy, like, oh, the

1806
01:24:19,600 --> 01:24:21,880
Speaker 1: hand was a full conversation.

1807
01:24:22,960 --> 01:24:25,920
Speaker 5: Just learned the guitar man at that point, right, you

1808
01:24:26,000 --> 01:24:26,960
Speaker 5: go to guitar haven't your.

1809
01:24:26,960 --> 01:24:27,840
Speaker 3: Name to me?

1810
01:24:28,400 --> 01:24:28,639
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1811
01:24:28,760 --> 01:24:31,040
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I know. No, don't worry, I'm not getting

1812
01:24:31,080 --> 01:24:35,200
Speaker 1: back into rock band or guitar. But you do ever

1813
01:24:35,280 --> 01:24:37,840
Speaker 1: hear like the song, like on the radio, You'll hear

1814
01:24:37,880 --> 01:24:40,280
Speaker 1: a song you're like, oh, it does take you back

1815
01:24:40,360 --> 01:24:42,760
Speaker 1: to guitar hero or rock band. You're like, oh, yeah,

1816
01:24:42,800 --> 01:24:43,360
Speaker 1: this is great.

1817
01:24:43,560 --> 01:24:45,840
Speaker 4: I killed this Red Red Blue, Redd Red.

1818
01:24:47,800 --> 01:24:48,599
Speaker 1: Oh it's so good.

1819
01:24:48,880 --> 01:24:51,040
Speaker 2: Last one here, I'll take you back one year. We

1820
01:24:51,240 --> 01:24:53,599
Speaker 2: just passed the one year anniversary of the league shutdown

1821
01:24:53,680 --> 01:24:56,960
Speaker 2: due to the pandemic. On March eleventh, twenty twenty, the

1822
01:24:57,040 --> 01:24:59,760
Speaker 2: jazz is Rudy Gobert tested positive for COVID nineteen just

1823
01:25:00,200 --> 01:25:02,840
Speaker 2: after touching. Reporters Mike's making a joke of it and

1824
01:25:02,920 --> 01:25:06,960
Speaker 2: Donovan Mitchell didn't talk to Rudy for weeks. Remember that

1825
01:25:07,400 --> 01:25:11,599
Speaker 2: things seemed unsalvagable in Utah. Now they're first in the West.

1826
01:25:11,800 --> 01:25:14,400
Speaker 2: And in an article on the Athletic this week, Mitchell said,

1827
01:25:15,000 --> 01:25:17,240
Speaker 2: you look at the level that guys are playing at now,

1828
01:25:17,439 --> 01:25:21,040
Speaker 2: that is a product of that drama. All right, when's

1829
01:25:21,040 --> 01:25:24,000
Speaker 2: the time you were part of a similar turnaround? JD.

1830
01:25:25,640 --> 01:25:30,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, listen, I came into this show horribly unprepared, and

1831
01:25:30,760 --> 01:25:36,080
Speaker 5: I managed to squeak out the first two answers. But

1832
01:25:36,240 --> 01:25:38,960
Speaker 5: I and I was working on this answer. But I'm

1833
01:25:39,080 --> 01:25:41,240
Speaker 5: I'm sorry task, but I'm going off the board here

1834
01:25:41,280 --> 01:25:45,080
Speaker 5: because I want to go through a bunch of headbands

1835
01:25:45,439 --> 01:25:49,200
Speaker 5: that I've been staring at. Lee He's got if you're listening,

1836
01:25:49,240 --> 01:25:52,479
Speaker 5: he's got a mcgyverd. His headphones fell apart, and he's

1837
01:25:52,600 --> 01:25:56,320
Speaker 5: using a little strap of something. So I just want

1838
01:25:56,320 --> 01:25:58,759
Speaker 5: to go through maybe a little top five of sorts

1839
01:25:58,800 --> 01:26:01,680
Speaker 5: of uh okay, yeah, well head head bands that it

1840
01:26:01,760 --> 01:26:07,479
Speaker 5: reminded me of number five, Johnny Lawrence that Cobra Kai

1841
01:26:07,600 --> 01:26:14,519
Speaker 5: speaking of. Uh. Number four is Tebob Gee. It was

1842
01:26:14,520 --> 01:26:16,280
Speaker 5: a great character from the Royal Tannemon.

1843
01:26:17,040 --> 01:26:17,959
Speaker 4: Of course there's.

1844
01:26:17,880 --> 01:26:22,559
Speaker 5: Uh Olivia Newton John I like it. Yeah, So I

1845
01:26:22,600 --> 01:26:26,680
Speaker 5: was looking for something that matched the the thinness of it,

1846
01:26:27,200 --> 01:26:28,920
Speaker 5: and I was like, where have I seen that before?

1847
01:26:29,040 --> 01:26:34,760
Speaker 5: And then Boogie Knights, Markler.

1848
01:26:33,680 --> 01:26:38,080
Speaker 4: Got danglar hanging off the side.

1849
01:26:38,840 --> 01:26:41,880
Speaker 5: And then number one. This is a deep cut, but

1850
01:26:43,160 --> 01:26:45,840
Speaker 5: it reminded me of this. It's from Staying Alive. It's

1851
01:26:45,960 --> 01:26:49,679
Speaker 5: uh Tony Manero and his dancing partner from Staying Alive.

1852
01:26:49,720 --> 01:26:52,919
Speaker 5: I can't remember the character's name, so it's John Travolta.

1853
01:26:53,120 --> 01:26:55,360
Speaker 5: You think her name might have been Jackie or Fiona

1854
01:26:55,479 --> 01:26:58,760
Speaker 5: or something. But uh, anyway, shout out to your headband

1855
01:26:58,840 --> 01:27:01,519
Speaker 5: and shout out to your headphone, and I apologize tests

1856
01:27:01,600 --> 01:27:02,320
Speaker 5: I did not happen.

1857
01:27:04,080 --> 01:27:08,040
Speaker 2: Well, JD. The thing that you that seemed unsoligible for

1858
01:27:08,120 --> 01:27:14,479
Speaker 2: you is that rivet. There's a frog in there. Yeah,

1859
01:27:14,520 --> 01:27:16,880
Speaker 2: the thing that was unsalvagible seemed ineligible for you is

1860
01:27:16,920 --> 01:27:18,760
Speaker 2: the start of the show. Things not looking good. But

1861
01:27:18,840 --> 01:27:20,400
Speaker 2: then I just turned it around.

1862
01:27:20,760 --> 01:27:24,040
Speaker 5: Wow, well we'll see, we'll find out. Yeah, we'll find out.

1863
01:27:24,520 --> 01:27:26,320
Speaker 2: Uh, tray, where do you got?

1864
01:27:26,800 --> 01:27:28,720
Speaker 4: Oh? The Bulls being back is by part of my

1865
01:27:28,760 --> 01:27:30,839
Speaker 4: favorite comeback of recent times.

1866
01:27:30,920 --> 01:27:31,800
Speaker 1: It's become a meme.

1867
01:27:31,840 --> 01:27:34,519
Speaker 4: Guys, I say it. But the Bulls started hing three

1868
01:27:34,600 --> 01:27:36,880
Speaker 4: this year. I was sad, very sad. The year turned

1869
01:27:36,880 --> 01:27:39,479
Speaker 4: to twenty twenty one, though, I said, time to change

1870
01:27:39,479 --> 01:27:42,960
Speaker 4: your face, be happy, pure positivity, and the Bulls are

1871
01:27:43,240 --> 01:27:45,800
Speaker 4: good now they're at least good, and it's been a

1872
01:27:45,840 --> 01:27:49,200
Speaker 4: long time since they've been relevant. I started working with

1873
01:27:49,320 --> 01:27:53,120
Speaker 4: y'all right before the twenty ten season. Great season for

1874
01:27:53,160 --> 01:27:56,240
Speaker 4: the Bulls. Made it to the Eastern Conference finals, then

1875
01:27:56,360 --> 01:27:59,479
Speaker 4: moved up to Toronto twenty eleven. Skeets, you remember we

1876
01:27:59,520 --> 01:28:01,519
Speaker 4: saw dar grows blow out his knee for the very

1877
01:28:01,520 --> 01:28:05,559
Speaker 4: first time at my place. Very sad. So I'm actually

1878
01:28:05,600 --> 01:28:08,759
Speaker 4: grateful though that the Bulls are finally at least trying

1879
01:28:08,760 --> 01:28:12,599
Speaker 4: to get back into the playoff picture here because Isla

1880
01:28:12,880 --> 01:28:16,160
Speaker 4: is six years old, which is how old I was

1881
01:28:16,320 --> 01:28:18,200
Speaker 4: when the Bulls won their first title. So I know

1882
01:28:18,280 --> 01:28:22,360
Speaker 4: that she's gonna remember stuff about this Bulls season somewhere

1883
01:28:22,400 --> 01:28:24,559
Speaker 4: sometime in the future for her. So I'm happy that

1884
01:28:24,800 --> 01:28:26,559
Speaker 4: I can at least tell her about good things that

1885
01:28:26,600 --> 01:28:29,760
Speaker 4: are happening in with Chicago rather than a bad season. Yeah,

1886
01:28:29,760 --> 01:28:33,240
Speaker 4: that's right, that's a little vulnerability for you there. I'm

1887
01:28:33,240 --> 01:28:35,200
Speaker 4: in it for my kids, man. I love the Bulls

1888
01:28:35,200 --> 01:28:37,200
Speaker 4: being back from a little babies.

1889
01:28:39,520 --> 01:28:40,439
Speaker 2: Skeats. What do you got?

1890
01:28:41,439 --> 01:28:45,240
Speaker 1: I would say this show, you know similar turnaround because

1891
01:28:45,280 --> 01:28:48,400
Speaker 1: I was just on the Douce and Mo podcast the

1892
01:28:48,400 --> 01:28:50,640
Speaker 1: other day. Show out to those guys. They are a

1893
01:28:50,680 --> 01:28:52,280
Speaker 1: lot of fun and I had a blast talking to

1894
01:28:52,320 --> 01:28:54,639
Speaker 1: them either based in Sacramento. They talk about the Kings

1895
01:28:54,680 --> 01:28:58,040
Speaker 1: unfortunately a lot. They got excited like I did about

1896
01:28:58,040 --> 01:28:59,920
Speaker 1: the Kings early in the season, and they've fallen back

1897
01:28:59,920 --> 01:29:02,760
Speaker 1: to earth. But next one last night. But anyway, I

1898
01:29:02,800 --> 01:29:05,559
Speaker 1: was asked. Deuce asked me, you know, like back in

1899
01:29:05,600 --> 01:29:07,439
Speaker 1: the day, did you guys, you know you were grinding

1900
01:29:07,479 --> 01:29:09,360
Speaker 1: those first four years not getting paid doing the show

1901
01:29:09,360 --> 01:29:11,040
Speaker 1: when we were the Basketball Jones, did you ever think

1902
01:29:11,080 --> 01:29:13,040
Speaker 1: of quitting? And I was like, oh my god, we

1903
01:29:13,120 --> 01:29:15,320
Speaker 1: thought it stopping all the time, like what are we

1904
01:29:15,360 --> 01:29:17,200
Speaker 1: doing here, We're not making a buck off this, you know,

1905
01:29:17,320 --> 01:29:20,920
Speaker 1: numbers are low, blah blah blah. But fortunately, I said,

1906
01:29:20,960 --> 01:29:23,559
Speaker 1: there was always somebody in the mix, you know, when

1907
01:29:23,600 --> 01:29:25,439
Speaker 1: it was just task, JD and I, that was always

1908
01:29:25,479 --> 01:29:28,160
Speaker 1: like no, no, no, you know, let's let's keep riding

1909
01:29:28,160 --> 01:29:30,200
Speaker 1: this out. It's good, it's going to click. Somebody's gonna

1910
01:29:30,200 --> 01:29:31,639
Speaker 1: see it, the right person's gonna see it. We're gonna

1911
01:29:31,640 --> 01:29:35,320
Speaker 1: turn this into a profession. And just luckily not all

1912
01:29:35,360 --> 01:29:37,479
Speaker 1: three of us were like on the same down, you

1913
01:29:37,479 --> 01:29:40,240
Speaker 1: know what I mean, on that on that wave, there

1914
01:29:40,240 --> 01:29:42,720
Speaker 1: was always someone positive peat and you needed that of

1915
01:29:42,720 --> 01:29:44,639
Speaker 1: the three. So I would say that a big turnaround.

1916
01:29:44,840 --> 01:29:48,000
Speaker 1: And if we had ever been all on that like, uh,

1917
01:29:48,240 --> 01:29:49,920
Speaker 1: there's a lot of work, we're not getting paid, what

1918
01:29:49,960 --> 01:29:51,719
Speaker 1: are we doing, well, then we probably would have stopped

1919
01:29:51,720 --> 01:29:54,679
Speaker 1: the show. But let's believe we weren't kept it positive

1920
01:29:54,720 --> 01:29:58,360
Speaker 1: back then, even trace SnO and eight two thousand and nine.

1921
01:29:58,400 --> 01:30:01,599
Speaker 1: Let's call it so yeah, but that would be my answer.

1922
01:30:01,720 --> 01:30:03,600
Speaker 1: What a turnaround? Look at us now, just back to

1923
01:30:03,680 --> 01:30:11,040
Speaker 1: podcasting like we were on. We went from Skype to streamyard, Baby,
