Hello, there he is, and here we are. Thanks 54 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 4: for joining us. We're going to recap all of yesterday's games. 55 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 4: But first it's with a heavy heart that I report 56 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 4: we've lost another basketball icon. Legendary Georgetown coach John Thompson Junior, 57 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,839 Speaker 4: known simply as Big John throughout college hoops, has died 58 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 4: at age seventy eight. He led George down to the 59 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 4: nineteen eighty four national championship. He was inducted into the 60 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 4: Basketball Hall of Fame in ninety nine and famously coached 61 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 4: future Hall of famers Patrick Ewing and Alonzo Morning and 62 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,959 Speaker 4: to Kene Matumbo and Alan Iverson, and I see a 63 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 4: rockin the Georgetown Hoya jersey here this morning, Tray. 64 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 2: That's right, John Thompson and Alan Iverson made a lot 65 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 2: of fans in the nineties. I got this when I 66 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 2: was in eighth grade and somehow it still fits me. 67 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: That's just how we wore things back in the day. 68 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 2: But uh yeah, that's sad to see another loss in 69 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 2: the basketball family. The guy was a legend in the 70 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 2: college game, a legend off the court, and honestly, it's 71 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 2: not often you see a lot of coaches who are 72 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 2: looking their big men eye to eye, so stand out 73 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 2: in that way as well. 74 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, Big John, for sure, our condolences to the entire 75 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,839 Speaker 4: Thompson family. Twenty twenty continues to be a little rough, 76 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 4: but we have some fun games to break down, except 77 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 4: for that Raptors one. Maybe we'll just skip over that 78 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 4: one today. I'm not sure we'll get to that later. 79 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 4: Let's start though, with Jamal Murray out dueling Donovan Mitchell, 80 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 4: setting up the first game seven from the bubble. 81 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: Take away Saza, we. 82 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 2: Got to Gaby good seven kid seven. 83 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,679 Speaker 4: Yes, nothing easy, Well maybe it is easy for Jamal 84 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 4: Murray task. This is crazy what this kid is doing 85 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 4: right now, and Mitchell for that matter. So here we go. 86 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 4: We said it right from the beginning, this series is 87 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 4: going seven. You can lock that in. We got there 88 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,279 Speaker 4: a weird way. But what you think of this game 89 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 4: and Murray's performance and so. 90 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 5: On, task Well, I didn't think it was going seven. 91 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 5: I didn't think the Jazz could score enough. I thought 92 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,280 Speaker 5: the Nuggets were winning this thing in five games. And 93 00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 5: it's weird that it's sort of come all the way 94 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 5: around that the Utah Jazz had their offense going and 95 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 5: now Jamal Murray fifty forty two and fifty in his 96 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 5: last three games. That's unheard of in playoff basketball. And 97 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:13,160 Speaker 5: you said it might be a little too easy for 98 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 5: Jamal Murray. I think that's a bit of the problem here, 99 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 5: is that it is a little bit too easy, and 100 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 5: that I think one of the shortcomings of Jazz head 101 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 5: coach Quinn Snyder is that he plays a lot of 102 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:27,720 Speaker 5: one on one ball. And you saw last year Superstars 103 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 5: in the playoffs, James Harden up against him, and he 104 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 5: was playing behind James Harden. He wasn't really doubling him 105 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 5: to get it out of his hands. He was trying 106 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 5: a bunch of that kind of thing. But Jamal Murray, 107 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 5: I think you got a double pretty much from the 108 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,839 Speaker 5: get go. This wasn't a thirty nine points in the 109 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:43,919 Speaker 5: second half after a slow first half. This was a 110 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 5: pretty equal first half to second half performance. So I 111 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 5: think it would be smarter to let Tory Craig, Paul 112 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 5: millsap and who's the third start, and Jeremy Grant, Let's 113 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 5: see if he can do that again. Let those three 114 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 5: guys while you cover Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic and 115 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 5: get the ball out of Jamal Murray's hens. Isn't that 116 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 5: an option? And in in a way, your your offense 117 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 5: is going to score enough. I think if you're the 118 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 5: Utah Jess because Denver doesn't usually play great defense, and 119 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:11,839 Speaker 5: you still have Donovan Mitchell, so even if you get 120 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:15,159 Speaker 5: down a little bit, if things don't work out, you 121 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 5: can still get back in the game. But I think 122 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 5: you just got to show him more because he is 123 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 5: scorching walking into jumpers. He is absolutely feeling it a 124 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 5: front to back performance. The postgame interview, which was incredibly moving, 125 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:32,239 Speaker 5: shows how the players are and totally totally behind this movement, 126 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 5: how much he has been moved, even as a Canadian 127 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:39,600 Speaker 5: kid growing up watching probably stars like Iverson in Georgetown, 128 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,479 Speaker 5: even Georgetown affecting me in Canada with Jamal Murray is 129 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,840 Speaker 5: a good Canadian boy. He realizes there's these these are 130 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 5: the racial device that going on in both countries. But 131 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:51,279 Speaker 5: he is just locked in. Unlock him, get him out 132 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 5: of his his flow right now. You got to get 133 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 5: him out of his flow. If you're Quinn Snyder, yeah. 134 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 4: I saw I think it was Pablo Torre tweet. Jamal 135 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 4: Murray is playing basketball right now like he's owned a 136 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 4: video game for a month before everyone else and is 137 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 4: now just destroying people with combos they don't even know 138 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 4: how to do yet. That's a great way to put it, 139 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 4: because yeah, it's it's just one on one. He's like, 140 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 4: I'll cook, I'll get my step back. Three, I've got 141 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 4: to handle the taken to the rim. And it's pretty special. Yeah, 142 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 4: the fifty, the forty two, the fifty. But on high 143 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 4: efficiency too, Lee, this is the wild part. This is 144 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 4: not fifty shots. These are you know, these are like, 145 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 4: you know, twenty five to thirty shots, high high efficiency 146 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 4: and with all the three pointers, he's just in a 147 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 4: zone right now. 148 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, and talking about taking the ball out of his hands. 149 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 3: Obviously that would be a smart strategy from the Utah Jazz, 150 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 3: but the way that he moves around. He often just 151 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 3: sort of gives up the ball, then gets it back 152 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 3: straight away and then goes to his shot. So it's 153 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,600 Speaker 3: not quite as easily done as it is said because 154 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 3: he's so active on that end. But he is just 155 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 3: feeling so outrageously confident right now. I tweeted one of 156 00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 3: his threes he hit last night. There was a three 157 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 3: on one for the nugget and he, you know, in 158 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 3: that sense, usually coaches want you to go in and 159 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 3: just sort of pass the ball around and get the 160 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 3: easy shot. He just pulled up and knocked down the 161 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 3: three without even hesitating at all. And that just shows 162 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 3: how confident he is right now, because if he misses that, 163 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 3: I mean, they probably still going to win the game. 164 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 3: But you can understand if the coach was like, no, 165 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 3: you've got to, you know, make the basket, but get 166 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 3: the sure thing. But instead he just hits that and 167 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 3: it's just so incredibly fun to watch. But then on 168 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 3: the other end, we're getting the same thing virtually from 169 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 3: Donovan Mitchell, which is just incredible. He hit nine threes 170 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 3: as well yesterday and he was just as good. It's 171 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,959 Speaker 3: just that the Nuggets got the win but also I 172 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 3: think what's really important here is obviously Matt Murray's fantastic, 173 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 3: but the Nuggets are just competing with an effort and 174 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 3: an energy they didn't have there for a couple of games. 175 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 3: Jokich had twenty two points, but he's trying harder. And 176 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 3: Jeremy Grant, I think he's been very, very good for 177 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 3: the Nuggets as well. So that sort of competitiveness that 178 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 3: just went missing for a couple of games is back, 179 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,200 Speaker 3: and now Denver's got themselves in a position where they 180 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 3: can win this series. 181 00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, the Nuggets are trying to become the twelfth team 182 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 4: to rally from three to one deficit to win the series. 183 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 4: I think that's almost being overlooked, right because of what 184 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 4: just Murray's doing and just being a weird series, as. 185 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 1: It is a very entertaining series. 186 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 4: But you're rightly, I mean, Murray is the headline, and 187 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 4: deservedly so, both what he did on the court and 188 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,839 Speaker 4: talking in the postgame interview. But I thought plumb lead 189 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 4: the plumb dog millionaire grab and you know tichange the game. Yeah, 190 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:22,320 Speaker 4: he changed it a bit, Tory Craig making hustle plays. 191 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 4: You said, Jeremy Grant, same thing, but then knocking down 192 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:28,200 Speaker 4: four threes. Yeah, you're right. Task if you're the Jazz, 193 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 4: I think you say, hey, Jeremy Grant, can you do 194 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 4: that again in a game seven? Anybody but Jamal Murray 195 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 4: and then Gary Harris first action of the series. Now, look, 196 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:36,960 Speaker 4: he didn't do a ton comes back from the right 197 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 4: hit muscle strain, but four points minutes out there obviously 198 00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:42,679 Speaker 4: a capable defender, and so that helped the Nuggets out. 199 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 5: I thought he slowed down to Jordan Clarkson a bit. 200 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:46,559 Speaker 5: That's his assignment. Come off the bench and just lock 201 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,200 Speaker 5: down Jordan Clarkson, who's been really really big for them. 202 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 1: Matt. 203 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:51,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, the defense, which is sort of non existent at 204 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 5: the beginning of the series has come around. Michael Malone 205 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 5: has found a lineup, starting Monte Morris there and dropping 206 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 5: Michael Porter to the bench. Now getting Gary Harris back 207 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 5: playing plumbe some minutes, they've got some defense. 208 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, So so trade do you buy this? Can you 209 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 4: just run a second guy at Jamal Murray or like 210 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 4: it cannot even work right now with him because Lee's right, 211 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 4: I mean, they do a lot of the you know, 212 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 4: dribble handoff actually with Joki jump top and it's like 213 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:20,200 Speaker 4: sort of just keep giving it back to him until 214 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 4: he sort of gets into his little groove finds enough space. 215 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 4: I mean that one step back three he had on 216 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 4: go bear in the car. Yeah, I mean that one 217 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 4: was just mind boggling too. You're right about the fast 218 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 4: break one. But what do you think, Tray. It doesn't matter. 219 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,679 Speaker 4: It honestly doesn't matter. We've seen this before. This is 220 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:36,439 Speaker 4: Steph Curry. He's playing exactly like Steph Curry. And when 221 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 4: Steph Curry gets doubled, he gives the ball up, he 222 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 4: runs around and somehow he gets it and somehow he's 223 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,560 Speaker 4: open for a three. I'm assuming that Murray will do 224 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 4: the same, And then I'm not really surprised that we're 225 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 4: seeing the Nuggets give this kind of effort because this 226 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 4: is Jamal Murray's team. 227 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 2: Now. I'm old enough to remember when this was Nikally 228 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 2: Jokich's team, when he was their best player, but he's 229 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 2: not right now. And when Jamal Murray is your best player, 230 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 2: he brings a little bit more intensity, he brings a 231 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:00,120 Speaker 2: little bit more fire, and I think you're gonna to 232 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,679 Speaker 2: be at least getting the effort every single night. Whereas 233 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 2: with Jokic, it's not a guarantee. You know, Murray can 234 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 2: have a bad shooting night. He hasn't in three games, 235 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 2: but he can have a bad shooting night. But at 236 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 2: least he's still playing hard out there. At least you 237 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 2: know you're getting the full effort from him, and I 238 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:16,160 Speaker 2: think it's made all the difference. This is the same 239 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,199 Speaker 2: thing that happened in the playoffs last year, right, Murray 240 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 2: put the team on his back to get a game 241 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 2: seven win yep, in the first round. He saved game 242 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 2: one in this series as well. It's crazy to think 243 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,839 Speaker 2: that this could have very easily been a Utah Jazz sweep, 244 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:30,319 Speaker 2: and now we're talking about them blowing a three to 245 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 2: one lead. Murray last night was incredible. When he's hitting 246 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 2: the step back, when he's made the first couple of threes, 247 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 2: you think he can make anything he throws up. It's 248 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:42,959 Speaker 2: exactly like a Canadian Steph Curry. The game is the 249 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:44,960 Speaker 2: same too, right, Like he's in and out, he's like 250 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 2: pumping fakes, he's showing his hands and then suddenly it's 251 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 2: a little scoop at the rim. 252 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 4: He's in complete control right now. Yeah, because it's not 253 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 4: just a shot. He has a pretty incredible handle, like 254 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 4: Steph Curry, right, I mean he's really and it's pretty high. 255 00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 4: It's pretty high for a guard, right, Like you want 256 00:11:58,400 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 4: to keep it at the waist, they tell you, but 257 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 4: not Hurry and Murray. They're keeping up with their shoulders 258 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 4: and maybe that helps. Maybe it's a little. 259 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 2: Too enticing for people to think, Ooh, I can get 260 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:06,199 Speaker 2: a hand on that. 261 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 1: You can't. You can get a three point in your 262 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:08,440 Speaker 1: face though. 263 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I saw the tweets going around last night, 264 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 4: so I wanted to ask you, guys, you know what 265 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 4: is the craziest first round series of recent memory. Now, 266 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 4: the stakes are not that high, this is a first 267 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 4: round series, but what Mitchell and Murray are doing night 268 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 4: in and night out here this show We're getting this 269 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 4: what feels like at. 270 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 1: Times like one on one battle. Is there another series? 271 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 4: I know Zach Lowe was throwing out the two thousand 272 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 4: and nine Bulls Celtics tray, which was a wild, wild series. 273 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: We're talking multiple overtimes. 274 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 2: Ray Allen had a fifty one point game, Derek Rose 275 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 2: put up a thirty six. At one point, the total 276 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 2: points weren't quite the same. I think there was a 277 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 2: Ben Gordon forty point game, but the shot making was 278 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 2: very similar, and obviously I think Zach mentioned that there 279 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,439 Speaker 2: were like multiple moments in that where it's coming. 280 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 1: Down to the last second. 281 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 2: We haven't really had that as much in this series 282 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 2: hopefully game seven though. 283 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, right, is there any other series Lee that come 284 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 4: to mind, like just again crazy first round series? 285 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 3: I think Spurs clip is from twenty five fifteen, the 286 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,319 Speaker 3: one where Chris Paul hits the runner off the banker 287 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 3: to win it in game seven. I think that was 288 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 3: a pretty close, close series because if I remember correctly, 289 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 3: the Clippers were down two to one in that series 290 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 3: and Game four was in San Antonio, and I was like, 291 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 3: this is like the Spurs are going to win this 292 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 3: series now. But then the Clippers came back, and I 293 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 3: think Chris Paul even had the hamstring injury which cost 294 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:22,720 Speaker 3: him the first couple of games of the next round, 295 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 3: but he still went out and just got that victory 296 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 3: over of San Antonio in game seven. So that's the 297 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 3: only sort of seven game series other than the Bull 298 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:32,880 Speaker 3: Celtics that I can really think of that was that 299 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 3: was pretty tight the whole way anyway. 300 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,080 Speaker 4: I know, I think it was Hollander making the case 301 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:40,200 Speaker 4: for a thunder Grizzlies in twenty fourteen, which went to 302 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 4: overtime multiple multiple games. That Clipper Spurs series is isn't 303 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 4: that famous in our world? For two reasons? One task 304 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:52,079 Speaker 4: wasn't that the one where you picked the Clips to 305 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 4: beat the Spurs and like Doc Rivers like almost used 306 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 4: it as motivation, well all the other people picking the 307 00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 4: Spurs to win it. 308 00:13:57,760 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 1: And then it had like tass Mellists. 309 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:03,079 Speaker 5: Clippers that yeah, totally totally unlike this series here that 310 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 5: we're talking about, where I picked the Nuggets in five. Yeah, 311 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:07,840 Speaker 5: I picked the Clippers in seven to beat the Spurs 312 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 5: their first playoff series victory, you know, over the Spurs, 313 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 5: And yeah, he used Doc Rivers put it up on 314 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 5: the board apparently. I remember Jamie Maggio showing that photo 315 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:20,680 Speaker 5: of everybody else putting in their picks. Everybody else had 316 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 5: their individual picks, but we were as a team basically, 317 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 5: and then mine sort of stood out amongst our four. 318 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:28,200 Speaker 1: Shout out to whoever took that screenshot at the start. 319 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 5: Exactly that piece of paper and thanks for photo shopping that, 320 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 5: Blake Griffin. I appreciate it. It was definitely Blake griff 321 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 5: It didn't. 322 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 3: Weren't a few people upset that they weren't included that 323 00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 3: they picked the Clippers as well, that it was like 324 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 3: selective that doc only one person out. Now there's like, oh, 325 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 3: I picked the Clippers too, And I was like, but 326 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 3: I remember seeing a fee. 327 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 5: As far as I can tell, there was like fifty 328 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 5: people on that. 329 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, there were a lot of Spurs picks. 330 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 5: Everybody taken the Spurs. 331 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 1: Yeah. 332 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 5: I don't remember that John Hollandre Thunder series. I probably should, 333 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 5: but I think the Grizzlies have played a bunch of series, 334 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 5: but unfortunately they don't get the love only from John hollingd. 335 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 5: They're just one of those teams that they play a 336 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 5: lot of long series. But I just remember, I mean, 337 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 5: the most consequential first round series that always comes to 338 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 5: mind is that we believe Warriors beating the MAVs, the 339 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:13,360 Speaker 5: sixty seven win MAVs. But you know that wasn't exciting 340 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 5: that the Bulls Celtics won. That was not really consequential 341 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 5: because the Celtics went on to win that series and 342 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 5: then lose the next round. But it was like Liam 343 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 5: Neeson movie, like nobody really cares what happens, but you're 344 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 5: in thralled by the whole thing, right, Like that was 345 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,640 Speaker 5: how many? There's like seven overtimes in that series? 346 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 1: Triple ot game six? That's awesome? 347 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:38,720 Speaker 3: Was that Ray Allen game? The fifty one? Was that 348 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 3: the triple overtime? Was that that game? 349 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 5: Game? It was a game sick? 350 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's yeah, yeah, Like that's just crazy to think 351 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 3: that that was a triple overtime game and that fifty 352 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 3: one was like, wow, Ray Allen had fifty one. Now 353 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 3: we're getting guys just putting up fifty one, right, you know, 354 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:52,640 Speaker 3: I mean. 355 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 4: The Murray Mitchell what they're doing right now. It is 356 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 4: it wasn't a first round series, but tass, I mean 357 00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 4: you can speak to this too. It reminds you a 358 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 4: little bit of Vince Carter versus Allen Iverson in the 359 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 4: second round back in two thousand and one in that 360 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 4: seven game series, just in terms of the pure scoring 361 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 4: and doing it efficiently. Those guys put up some monster 362 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 4: numbers in that one. It just feels like this I 363 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 4: tweeted last night, It feels like this one's on steroids 364 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 4: from that with these young guys in Murray and Mitchell. 365 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 4: The way they're getting their buckets. 366 00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 5: No doubt. Yeah, Iverson had a couple fifties, Vince had 367 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 5: a couple of fifties. And if it's anything like that series, 368 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 5: we're going to get a bit of a dudley. In 369 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 5: the game seven, a bit of it died right the 370 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 5: game high in that game was twenty three points from 371 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 5: Antonio Davis. Of all people, Vince and Iverson cooled off. Yeah, 372 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 5: so I think I think you got to get the 373 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,320 Speaker 5: ball out of Jamals. I understand what you guys are saying, 374 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:46,280 Speaker 5: but sometimes Jamal Murray would lose the ball, like that 375 00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 5: one where he went behind the back and he lost 376 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 5: it and there was nobody around to touch it. He 377 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 5: picked it up and then he did a nice little 378 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 5: scoop off the glass and he felt so good. I mean, 379 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 5: ies on the guy who's scoring fifty points on the 380 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 5: other team. It's I just don't I just don't believe that. 381 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 5: Jeremy Grant and Paul Millsap, he just doesn't have it 382 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:09,919 Speaker 5: right now. Uh and and even Monte Morris. You know, 383 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 5: I throw Tory Craig in there, but like they just 384 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:14,679 Speaker 5: just try it. I think I think you gotta try 385 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 5: it again. Your your offense with Don Mitchell is good 386 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 5: enough to bring you back. But yeah, this is is 387 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 5: a lot like Iverson and Vince. 388 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:23,199 Speaker 4: It really is a final little part back to that 389 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 4: Clipper Spurs series you're talking about. 390 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:26,640 Speaker 1: Was that fifteen you said, Lee? I think so, yeah, yeah, 391 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 1: forty fifteen. 392 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 4: This is for Tray and Task. Specifically, where were we 393 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,600 Speaker 4: when we watched Chris Paul hit the game winner versus 394 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 4: the Spurs. What restaurant were we? I believe altogether, I 395 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:38,200 Speaker 4: know some of. 396 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 1: You are with me. 397 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:42,400 Speaker 5: It's a two two word restaurant. 398 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:43,680 Speaker 1: Three sort of three. 399 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:44,119 Speaker 5: It's a the. 400 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: Something dollar cafe. 401 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:49,920 Speaker 4: No, it's a number first something something something like a 402 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 4: number and then an animal. 403 00:17:52,880 --> 00:18:01,400 Speaker 2: Number that wood. 404 00:17:59,200 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 1: Nice pull man. 405 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 4: We were, I think, I don't mean Tag was, but 406 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:05,439 Speaker 4: I'm pretty sure you both were. And we watched it 407 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:07,239 Speaker 4: like in the little bar setting because we're like we 408 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 4: were out for brunch. I think it was like I 409 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 4: think Sunday. 410 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:11,920 Speaker 3: I don't know it was a Sunday because I'm actually 411 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 3: I was actually listening to it on the radio. I 412 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 3: was driving somewhere, I remember because I had that, Yeah, 413 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:19,480 Speaker 3: I had the radio the NBA app in my side 414 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 3: console like on where I was driving and I was like, 415 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 3: oh my god, what's going on here? And watch it 416 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:25,159 Speaker 3: fired up? 417 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:25,640 Speaker 1: Yeah. 418 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:28,160 Speaker 4: I just remember we were we had friends, I think 419 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,360 Speaker 4: maybe in town or something, and that's why we were 420 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,119 Speaker 4: not watching the game, and we were all out for 421 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 4: brunch and then we were gonna, of course watch it later. 422 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 4: But it was on in the bar part of this 423 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 4: nice restaurant and we. 424 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 1: Like had I remember us. We all got up and 425 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 1: watched like the final a couple of minutes. 426 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,959 Speaker 2: Yeah, the brunch is delicious, but their game watching setup 427 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 2: is not ideal. You're there for the food. But yeah, 428 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 2: in a pinch, you can you can see Chris Paul 429 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 2: hit a game winner. 430 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:50,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. 431 00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 4: It was a tiny TV, if I remember correctly, one 432 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 4: in stag one tiny TV. 433 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 1: It was a dinner. There was a dinner. 434 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 5: Those it wasn't a dinner, okay, okay, Yeah, eight pm 435 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:06,680 Speaker 5: APM start Basketball Reference so good, so good? Okay, wow, okay, 436 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 5: the only site that has that start times on there. 437 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:10,640 Speaker 4: You know what I was doing there, I was doing 438 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:14,679 Speaker 4: the classic two thousand and one Sixers Raptors. That was 439 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,159 Speaker 4: a day game. That was That was the May two 440 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 4: four weekend story where the Raptors lost that I was 441 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 4: at a basement bar. We all stood up to Singo Canada. 442 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 5: In rural Canada. Yeah, really weird. 443 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 4: Basketball is the best, Okay, So anything else from this one? 444 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 4: I mean, look, what do you think? I said, Trey, 445 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 4: Remember I threw it at you. I said, does Game 446 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:37,879 Speaker 4: six feel like a must win for the Jazz? You know, 447 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,479 Speaker 4: we were debating that is that silly? Is that stupid? 448 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:40,879 Speaker 1: Whatever? 449 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:42,919 Speaker 4: Like what really carries over at zero zero when they 450 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,119 Speaker 4: start Game seven? But what do you think? What's your 451 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,920 Speaker 4: prediction for Game seven? How do you make a prediction 452 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 4: for this game? Game sevens are like a toss up regardless. 453 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,399 Speaker 4: Both the Nuggets and the Jazz have been such up 454 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:56,880 Speaker 4: and down teams for the entirety of the year. Anytime 455 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,680 Speaker 4: you feel like they have momentum, it could definitely flip. 456 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 4: There to be a lot of nerves at the beginning 457 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:02,719 Speaker 4: of Game s, haven't it feels like? 458 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:02,879 Speaker 5: So? 459 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:03,879 Speaker 1: I don't know. 460 00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,800 Speaker 2: I mean, I would tend to pick Murray because he's 461 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,120 Speaker 2: been on fire for three straight games, but maybe that's 462 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:12,359 Speaker 2: the problem that being sad. I was a Nuggets pick 463 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 2: earlier before the series started, and so of course I'm 464 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 2: gonna go with the Nuggets in this one. 465 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:18,639 Speaker 4: Right, you were a Nuggets in seven, just like I was. 466 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:20,440 Speaker 1: Where did you go with this one? Lee? I can't remember. 467 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:22,920 Speaker 3: I think I said Nuggets in six? Yeah, we all 468 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 3: had the Nuggets right right. I'm just going to throw 469 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,680 Speaker 3: this out there too. Whoever loses, do you think their 470 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 3: coach might be canned as well? Because think about a 471 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 3: Quinn Snyder if they don't get out of the first 472 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,360 Speaker 3: round when they led three to one against Denver. He's 473 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,920 Speaker 3: been there I think seven seasons. Now, that's a long time. 474 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 3: And this is a season when they came in, they 475 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 3: had high expectations. And then if you're Michael Malone, listen, 476 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 3: the number three seed, you go out to the number 477 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,320 Speaker 3: six seed. You know, like, are you really getting the 478 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 3: most out of those guys? 479 00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:49,479 Speaker 4: Yo? 480 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,359 Speaker 3: Kitchen and Murray he's been there a while too, So 481 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 3: I wonder if one of those guys is going to 482 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 3: get canned. I hope not, but you know it's gonna 483 00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 3: be a it's going to be a disappointing end to 484 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 3: the season for the team whichever team loses. 485 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:04,400 Speaker 4: It sure, sure, yeah, they both, especially with the Jazz 486 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:06,240 Speaker 4: being up three one. I mean, I can't remember a 487 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 4: series where it looked like a team was so dominant 488 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 4: for the first half of the series and then sort 489 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,120 Speaker 4: of looked like they're outclass for the second half. 490 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:15,160 Speaker 1: Mitchell's been good. 491 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 4: Not a lot of other guys on the Jazz have 492 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 4: been over the last couple I mean Joe Engle, sorry, Leally, 493 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:22,159 Speaker 4: he's sort of disappeared here. 494 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:25,680 Speaker 3: For he has. I mean those first those games when 495 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:27,439 Speaker 3: they were leinning, he was great for them, you know, 496 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:29,719 Speaker 3: doing all those things, knocking down shots, being a bit 497 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 3: of a creator. But yeah, defensively he gets cooked a lot, 498 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:35,719 Speaker 3: and on the offensive end, he's not really making up 499 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 3: for it right now. So yeah, they need a lot 500 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,159 Speaker 3: more out of him. And Rudy Gobert's been okay, but 501 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:41,920 Speaker 3: not quite as good as he was when they were 502 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 3: when they won those three games where he was just 503 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 3: feasting on Jokic. They've actually Jokich's defense has been a lot. 504 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 3: His awareness of go beer sort of rolling to the 505 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 3: hoop has been improved. 506 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 4: Yes, he's keeping that big body well some down big 507 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,119 Speaker 4: body a little closer to him, you're right, Yeah. And 508 00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 4: then Gobert, like even last night he missed like a 509 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 4: pretty It would have been an awesome Lau like that 510 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:03,919 Speaker 4: one hand jam. But you can see him like he 511 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,120 Speaker 4: dropped his head after it. He was like you could 512 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:08,399 Speaker 4: tell he was very frustrated how he's been playing to 513 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:10,679 Speaker 4: But yeah, I guess I'll stick with the Nuggets in 514 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 4: Game seven. But Tray's right, flip a coin, taskway, what 515 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 4: do you say you got Denver? 516 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,400 Speaker 5: I'm with training that I have no idea what's gonna happen. 517 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:21,679 Speaker 5: But yeah, I'll take Denver. I'll take Denver with the 518 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:23,120 Speaker 5: way things are flowing right now. 519 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 4: All right, let's keep it going here. Kawhi Leonard's Clippers 520 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 4: eliminate Luca and the Mavericks in six games, one eleven 521 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 4: ninety seven victory there on Sunday, Kawhi, oh my goodness, 522 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 4: dominant again thirty three fourteen, seven asists, five steals, Trey 523 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 4: big takeaway. Maybe outside of Kawhi just being a machine, 524 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:43,399 Speaker 4: I mean. 525 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 2: He's awesome. This guy is killing it right now. Five 526 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:49,120 Speaker 2: straight games with thirty plus points. It's his best postseason streaking. 527 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 2: He really won the game for the Clippers in the 528 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,400 Speaker 2: fourth quorder, the Mavericks were able to get it down 529 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:56,639 Speaker 2: to double digits. Kawhi gets put back in. He scores 530 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 2: eight straight for the Clips. Then Reggie Jackson hit a 531 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,160 Speaker 2: couple of three. The game was basically a wrapped Kawhi 532 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,520 Speaker 2: had twenty two in the second half on nine of 533 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:06,920 Speaker 2: ten shooting. Doc said, you can tell he's the guy 534 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:09,120 Speaker 2: who knows how to close out a series, and that's 535 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 2: exactly what it looked like. He just put the team 536 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,400 Speaker 2: on his back. He was hitting these little Michael Jordan's 537 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 2: style flip shots in the lane, driving across, not even 538 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 2: touching the ball with his left hand, just dumping it 539 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:22,359 Speaker 2: up on the rim, no problem. He was incredible, and 540 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 2: you know the control he has and the advantage he 541 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:26,679 Speaker 2: has to be able to get a mid range jumper 542 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 2: when that's the thing that every team in the league 543 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:29,680 Speaker 2: wants to give up. 544 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 1: It's huge. 545 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 2: I mean, he can get his shot every single time. 546 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 2: It's just a matter of is he going to make 547 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 2: it or miss it? He made most of them last night. 548 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 2: Dontich again was great thirty eight, nine and nine in 549 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 2: an elimination game. But the only thing people are going 550 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 2: to be talking about with this is the future for 551 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 2: the Mavericks. It looks bright. They need to put some 552 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,399 Speaker 2: more pieces around Luca. They needed to get kristaps heal 553 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:50,679 Speaker 2: at the end. Of course, another cheap shot from Marcus 554 00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:53,520 Speaker 2: Morris ejected in the first quarter for karate chopping the 555 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:54,440 Speaker 2: donk right. 556 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 1: In the neck as Luca drove to the rim for 557 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 1: a layup. 558 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 3: Ridiculous suspending suspending for that. Give him a game for sure, 559 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:04,159 Speaker 3: I absolutely think so. At first, I thought, oh, no, 560 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:06,240 Speaker 3: that's just a hard playoff out. When you look back 561 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:09,200 Speaker 3: at it, that swipe sort of down across his neck 562 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 3: head totally unnecessary, and he's had a couple of little 563 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 3: incidents in this series on the league. I just give 564 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 3: him a game minimum for that, and say, you've been 565 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 3: pushing us for too long, man, and you certainly didn't 566 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:21,160 Speaker 3: need to do that hard faire as of one thing. 567 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 3: But just whacking a guy across the head like that 568 00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 3: a bit of a jerk off move. You'll get in 569 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 3: a game for that, bud, all. 570 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 4: Right, especially when you take into consideration last week when 571 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 4: he steps on Lucas ankle, right, he says he didn't 572 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:36,440 Speaker 4: do it intentionally, of course some people think he did. 573 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:38,920 Speaker 4: And then now you've got the karate chop. It was 574 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:42,639 Speaker 4: definitely a karate chop. Yeah, it was a hard playoff 575 00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 4: foul and he rightfully got ejected and the flagrant two 576 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:47,720 Speaker 4: on that. But what do you think task does he 577 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 4: get a game for this? 578 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,679 Speaker 5: I think he does. He has earned this reputation now 579 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,040 Speaker 5: throughout the series and throughout the season. As our own 580 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 5: Trey Kirby tweeted, is Marcus Morris the first guy to 581 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 5: get suspended in the preseason, regular season, and now postseason 582 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 5: in the history of the NBA. He's earned it, he 583 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 5: really has. After the step on the ankle after they 584 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:11,919 Speaker 5: getting into it with Christaps Porzingis in Game one, Listen, 585 00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:14,920 Speaker 5: I think it's good overall when you zoom out, it's 586 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 5: good to have this guy on your team. If you're 587 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:20,600 Speaker 5: Doc Rivers. Duckers loves this guy. Doc Rivers loves the 588 00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 5: fact that Luka Doncic. Number one was he was getting 589 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:25,920 Speaker 5: physical with Marcus Morris on the drive to the hoop 590 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:28,120 Speaker 5: as he should. You know, he was pushing him off there. 591 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,440 Speaker 5: That was a real tough chicken wing. And then after 592 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 5: he got up after the hack on his neck, he 593 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 5: was livid. And that's exactly what you want, is Doc Rivers. 594 00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 5: You want somebody to get under the other best player's skin, 595 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 5: and that has thrown him off, you know, to a degree. 596 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:45,399 Speaker 5: Luca was amazing in this game and the series and 597 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:48,680 Speaker 5: having that sixteen point third quarter. But yeah, I think 598 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:52,200 Speaker 5: overall the lineup is perfect for Doc Rivers and I 599 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 5: think they sort of found something here. First, they found 600 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,439 Speaker 5: out that Kawhi even though he's the best player in 601 00:25:57,440 --> 00:25:59,400 Speaker 5: the playoffs right now, I think he's been the steadiest 602 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:02,400 Speaker 5: player in the postseason. He's still doing it co quietly. Yeah, 603 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 5: needed to throw that ugly punt in there, but he's 604 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,719 Speaker 5: still the best. And then the fact that Patrick Beverly 605 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 5: is out, Landry Shammitt came into the starting lineup and 606 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,919 Speaker 5: he's kind of perfect. You know, if you need a 607 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,239 Speaker 5: defensive point guard, Patrick Beverley, you throw him in there. 608 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:19,359 Speaker 5: But Landry Shammitt is more of a money shooter on 609 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:22,240 Speaker 5: the outside. And if you look forward, whether it's Denver, 610 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:24,600 Speaker 5: Utah and then the Lakers, you don't need a Patrick 611 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,919 Speaker 5: Beverley necessarily for the guards that they have. For like 612 00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 5: a KCP out there, I think Landry shammittt does enough 613 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:33,359 Speaker 5: defensively and a whole ton offensively, you know, to be 614 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 5: that complimentary guy. And then off the bench you got 615 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:39,840 Speaker 5: Reggie Jackson, who in baseball, we all know is mister October. 616 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:43,119 Speaker 5: But in this game, in this game, Reggie Jackson was 617 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 5: a closer. He really was. He hit some big threes 618 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 5: and we're going to be potentially playing in October. If 619 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:53,160 Speaker 5: Reggie Jackson's in the finals, he could be the new 620 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 5: mister October instead of mister April, May or June. But 621 00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,640 Speaker 5: I just bring that up because it's one of them 622 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,680 Speaker 5: good problems to have, understandably, to have too many guys 623 00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:04,480 Speaker 5: like Whin Patrick Beverley comes back. But we're going from 624 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 5: this issue with the Clippers of not enough team camaraderie, 625 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 5: they hadn't played enough games together was the idea, and 626 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 5: I was definitely buying into that, guys like lou Williams, 627 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 5: Mantres Harold coming in and out of the bubble. But 628 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:18,639 Speaker 5: now those two guys are getting killed defensively, and so 629 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 5: you have to kind of take one off the floor, 630 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 5: lou In Montrez. And so now Doc has to kind 631 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:27,440 Speaker 5: of shuffle these lineups here. And I think Marcus Morris 632 00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 5: he's going to be there to stay, even if he's 633 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:31,440 Speaker 5: suspended for Game one of Round two, which I think 634 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:33,119 Speaker 5: he will be. He's going to be in that starting 635 00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:37,760 Speaker 5: lineup because he's a really good basketball player. I know, 636 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 5: I know he plays ugly ball, but you can give 637 00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 5: it to him and expect the bucket. I mean, he 638 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:43,879 Speaker 5: was twenty points per game this year with the Knicks 639 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:47,159 Speaker 5: on good percentages because he's he can get a bucket 640 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:49,440 Speaker 5: at any time. So the Clippers are in a real 641 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 5: great spot. 642 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:53,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, Reggie Jackson hitting the three spot up threes there 643 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,400 Speaker 4: to ice this one. Yeah, more of a Dennis Eckersley. 644 00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:59,200 Speaker 4: Is that what you're thinking? They're task but the closer. 645 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:03,480 Speaker 1: Jackson's career as a starter perfect. 646 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:07,879 Speaker 5: Yeah that wow, wow, Yeah, Yeah, Reggie Jackson did it 647 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 5: for the A's as well as Dennis accuracy. You kind 648 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 5: of forget Reggie's Oakland A's days. I think I'm more 649 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 5: of a Yankee, but yeah, for sure, I'm not that old, 650 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 5: so I don't remember the Oakland days. But yeah, good stuff. 651 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 5: Is we got another one? You want to pull out 652 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 5: a Mike Diago, I'm Karney Lansford. Who and who Karney mckmustache. 653 00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:33,119 Speaker 5: He had a great third baseman mustache. 654 00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:33,920 Speaker 1: Amazing. 655 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 4: Back to Kawhi cooking. I liked when they tried to 656 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 4: go to the two three zone on him. Nope, that's 657 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:43,920 Speaker 4: not gonna work, because that's when you see the limitations 658 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 4: of a zone in the NBA, when the other team 659 00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 4: has a guy like Kawhi that can very easily score 660 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 4: or make something happen. And then late in this game, 661 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:54,240 Speaker 4: you're you know, you're talking about it there, Trey. He 662 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 4: hit three straight jumpers where he didn't put the ball 663 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:01,840 Speaker 4: on the floor. I get it, he's a tough cover, 664 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 4: but you gotta try and get up into him a 665 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 4: little bit more and at least make the guy dribble. Uh, 666 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:09,920 Speaker 4: and and try and maybe turn the ball over or 667 00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:11,360 Speaker 4: you don't want to pass or something, or make someone 668 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 4: else like that was that was wild. You don't see 669 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 4: that a lot just literally gets the ball. Everything slows 670 00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 4: down because Kawi is in no damn rush and then 671 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 4: just okay, are you gonna stand that far away from me? 672 00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 1: You're sure? 673 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 4: Okay, I'm gonna shoot it and uh and then just 674 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 4: knock them down time after time. I mean, he was 675 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 4: not feeling any defense, any pressure at all. Again, not 676 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 4: easy because even then when you pressure him, he's gonna 677 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 4: go right around you, uh and then probably hit like 678 00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 4: one of those little crazy MJ like shots you said 679 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 4: there Trey. 680 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,640 Speaker 1: But gotta give him a little bit more. Uh. 681 00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 4: The only thing else to add to this is a 682 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 4: question for you guys, who would the Clippers rather see 683 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:47,920 Speaker 4: in the second round? Because they're gonna take on the 684 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 4: Nuggets or Jazz, what's a what's a more favorable matchup 685 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:53,440 Speaker 4: for them? I'm sure they don't care about either team, 686 00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:55,880 Speaker 4: like they are a title contender, so it shouldn't matter. 687 00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 4: But who would they rather see? Who do you think? 688 00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:01,520 Speaker 3: Lee? Yeah, they're pretty even, pretty even. I guess they 689 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:05,080 Speaker 3: would rather see the Jazz. 690 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 1: I suppose I meant so too. 691 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. I really can't split these two 692 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:12,280 Speaker 3: teams because if you look inside, you've got Gobert and Joki, 693 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 3: so both big guys who should have an advantage over 694 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 3: Zubat's you know, in the starting but you know that 695 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:19,960 Speaker 3: played great. Yeah he competes. And then they've got the 696 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:21,920 Speaker 3: other bigger guys who who can you know, like Montrez 697 00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 3: are going to throw their body at whoever the big 698 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:26,400 Speaker 3: is for the other team. But then you've got Mitchell 699 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 3: and Murray. I mean, either one of those are going 700 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 3: you expect to have a really big performance as well. 701 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 3: And then you've got the role players. The question I 702 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 3: guess about the Jazz is they tend to sort of 703 00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:39,120 Speaker 3: fall apart a little bit in the playoffs at some point. 704 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:41,360 Speaker 3: And the Nuggets, I mean, they went to seven last 705 00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 3: year and they lost the game seven home, so very 706 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 3: very tough to really split. They've just got so many 707 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,600 Speaker 3: similar parts and pieces that I don't ultimately don't think. 708 00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:51,760 Speaker 3: I'm just thinking who would match up on Kawhi the best, 709 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 3: who would have the best defender for Kauahi. It's probably 710 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 3: a Jeremy Grant or a Royce O'Neill, probably, and neither 711 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,560 Speaker 3: one of those are gonna ska wild that much, so 712 00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 3: ultimately it doesn't matter. 713 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 1: Okay, Trey, you sort of agree with that. 714 00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I kinda feel the same way that I feel 715 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:11,960 Speaker 2: about both of those teams. As the Clippers playing against 716 00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 2: the Mavericks, Like Maxi Kleiba is giving it as all 717 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 2: out there and he's doing a pretty good job. But 718 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 2: it's like Kwai can score eight straight points on three 719 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 2: possessions basically whenever he wants to. It's just a matter 720 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:23,960 Speaker 2: of Okay, I'll do it right now, and I'll do 721 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:25,720 Speaker 2: it in the second quarter, and I'll do it in 722 00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:27,080 Speaker 2: the first quarter and at the end of the game, 723 00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 2: it all adds up to thirty. Yeah, that's going to 724 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 2: be the case against either of the teams that the 725 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 2: Clippers could see in the second round. 726 00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:37,160 Speaker 4: YEP, probably true. One final thing, I lied, Lee, I 727 00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 4: knew you would have liked this. When we had the 728 00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:42,560 Speaker 4: karate chop Morris on Luca and all that, we had 729 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:47,560 Speaker 4: the rare four free throws to make three points situation. 730 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 4: We do not get that very often, and Luca, I think, 731 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:53,680 Speaker 4: only went two for four, so he sort of ruined it. 732 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:56,040 Speaker 1: I missed a couple of years, but yeah, it was crazy. 733 00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 1: It was wild. 734 00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 4: You don't see that often free throws to make three points. 735 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:02,240 Speaker 4: So if he had hit his first three, then that's it. 736 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:04,920 Speaker 4: I mean, you're not getting the fourth one, crazy, right, Yeah, Yeah, 737 00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 4: if you missed one, he would have had a chance. 738 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:09,080 Speaker 3: What you did. Yeah, I really wasn't paying attention to that, 739 00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:11,920 Speaker 3: but yeah, you're right, You're right. I just mo always 740 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,360 Speaker 3: looking back at I think it was Boban who sort 741 00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:19,280 Speaker 3: of prevented Luca from going at Marcus. I mean, just 742 00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 3: that gigantic man there. I mean, Luca's watched six six 743 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 3: sixty seven something like that, and he looked like he 744 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 3: was about four feet tall in that particular moment because 745 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 3: Boban just stands there and just he's just such a 746 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 3: huge human being. 747 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 1: It's just yeah, that was. 748 00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 2: The closest that Dont just came to injury when Boban 749 00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:34,880 Speaker 2: pulled his arm back. 750 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:36,280 Speaker 1: No, no, his armor. 751 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:39,200 Speaker 4: I'm sorry, he just. 752 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:41,280 Speaker 1: Yeah. 753 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 4: I mean this is the funny part, ironic part. Right, 754 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 4: The Mavericks can maybe use a Marcus Morris. I mean, Boban, 755 00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:48,720 Speaker 4: that's great. He's a giant, so he's a bit of 756 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 4: a forcer that way, but he's like the friendly bouncer, right, 757 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:54,280 Speaker 4: you need the crazy bouncer, and that's Marcus Morris. Uh, 758 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:56,560 Speaker 4: they could use a guy like that parent Sid Luca. 759 00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,360 Speaker 4: Not that Luca can't take this. The kid played in Europe. 760 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:01,400 Speaker 4: I mean, oh yeah, he saw some hard shots, some 761 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 4: hard fouls and you know he's not afraid. He's going 762 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 4: at these guys. But you still need you need a 763 00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:10,600 Speaker 4: crazy weirdo like Marcus Morris in your corner. I think 764 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 4: on your roster. It always helps to do the dirty work. 765 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 4: So maybe they'll maybe they'll get one of those type 766 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:17,200 Speaker 4: of guys in the league. What do you think they're task. 767 00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 5: Oh Luca was he just kept coming in this series totally. 768 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 5: He needs somebody like that beside him. But as Doc 769 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:26,360 Speaker 5: Rivers said postgame, when Luca came into the league, I 770 00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:29,160 Speaker 5: had a man crush on him and it's only developed 771 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,200 Speaker 5: more and more and more. And he was trying to 772 00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 5: be physical with Luca. But Luca six games, all the 773 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:37,720 Speaker 5: way through the fourth quarter, was trying to pull his 774 00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 5: team to victory and despite all the injuries. Yeah, he 775 00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:43,719 Speaker 5: definitely could use just somebody who's also on the floor 776 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 5: to defend him because Boban's coming off the bench generally 777 00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 5: and has to be the Yeah, the friendly bouncer, as 778 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 5: he put it, That's that's the way to put it 779 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 5: for sure. Yeah, he could use some nastiness. But this 780 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:57,160 Speaker 5: Mats team, they fought, they really did. It was it 781 00:33:57,200 --> 00:34:00,160 Speaker 5: was cool to see Tim Hardaway play defense and know 782 00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 5: guys like Trey Burke and Michael Kidd, Gilchris, guys who 783 00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:07,040 Speaker 5: have you know, sort of gone from in our NBA NERDM. 784 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:09,120 Speaker 5: We love those type of guys, like we you know, 785 00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:11,080 Speaker 5: we all follow all these guys. They kind of drop 786 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:12,440 Speaker 5: off a little bit and now they're sort of in 787 00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:15,000 Speaker 5: the in the sphere of things against It was cool 788 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:18,719 Speaker 5: to see those those guys come back. But uh yeahs 789 00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:21,120 Speaker 5: as even Rick Carlisle said postgame, I was watching a 790 00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 5: lot of postgame press conferences. He said, Uh, you know, 791 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:27,839 Speaker 5: we're we're going to get better guys around Luca and 792 00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 5: that's that's the goal here. And yeah, that's that's the 793 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:33,840 Speaker 5: number one objective. Even though those guys are all great stories, 794 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 5: if they can find a number three and keep Chris 795 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:38,800 Speaker 5: Tops healthy, lookout. 796 00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:39,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. 797 00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:41,600 Speaker 4: I mean, this was by no means a disappointing first 798 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,799 Speaker 4: playoff appearance for Luca Dodgs because sometimes you see that, right, 799 00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:47,640 Speaker 4: you see young talent have an incredible year and then 800 00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:49,759 Speaker 4: they get the first taste of the playoffs and you know, 801 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:51,279 Speaker 4: it's a bit of a shell shock moment. I know, 802 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:52,880 Speaker 4: this whole bubble thing sort of throws that out the 803 00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:54,320 Speaker 4: window because there's no fans and you're not on the 804 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 4: road and stuff. But like you know, we've seen guys 805 00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:00,440 Speaker 4: have dominant, young regular seasons and then struggle in their 806 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,120 Speaker 4: first playoff series. I can't say that happened here with Luca, 807 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:04,800 Speaker 4: and he did it against one of the best defenses 808 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:06,600 Speaker 4: in the league. On a bum ankle for a good 809 00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:08,960 Speaker 4: chunk of it. No, Kristaps Porsing is for a good 810 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,839 Speaker 4: chunk of it and still put up a fight. So yeah, 811 00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:14,480 Speaker 4: you're you know, I saw Mark Cuban tweeting how like 812 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,160 Speaker 4: excited it felt like, you know, coming through on the tweet, 813 00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:19,759 Speaker 4: just like the future is still promisingly with with well 814 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:21,759 Speaker 4: you saw here from Luca and what he even had 815 00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:23,640 Speaker 4: around him still getting them to a couple of victories. 816 00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, it's just the defensive end you've talked about it. 817 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:28,600 Speaker 3: That's what they need. They need someone who can protect 818 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:30,759 Speaker 3: the paint and protect the perimeter a little bit better 819 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:32,839 Speaker 3: because you can't have Luca trying to do all that 820 00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:35,560 Speaker 3: on both ends of the floor. And I think, you know, 821 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:37,640 Speaker 3: I don't know who they're going to target, but I 822 00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:40,600 Speaker 3: think a guy like in al Horford, you know, who 823 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:43,480 Speaker 3: could help them defensively. I think that would be important 824 00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:46,360 Speaker 3: and he offensively wouldn't hurt them either, but he's probably 825 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:49,200 Speaker 3: not quite on the same timeline as where the Mavericks are. 826 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,400 Speaker 3: But the player like that, you know, prime al horforit 827 00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:54,160 Speaker 3: there in Atlanta and Boston, I think would be certainly 828 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:56,799 Speaker 3: an upgrade. And then they need some perimeter defense as well. 829 00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,480 Speaker 2: So I have a feeling Philadelphia might be okay with 830 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:03,399 Speaker 2: partying with Al Horford maybe gettable Oh yeah, no. 831 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:05,160 Speaker 3: I mean that's the sort of thing. But he's what 832 00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:08,319 Speaker 3: thirty three I think now, So you knows his best 833 00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:10,319 Speaker 3: days are probably behind him, but he's the sort of 834 00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:12,640 Speaker 3: player that I'm saying, you know that they need someone 835 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,160 Speaker 3: there to help sure Chris STAPs as well help Kristaps 836 00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:17,440 Speaker 3: learn how to play a bit better defense. So, but 837 00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:19,560 Speaker 3: you know the things from the Maverick yesterday. Offensively, I 838 00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:21,719 Speaker 3: think Luca will be great with a guy like a 839 00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:24,239 Speaker 3: Tim Hardaway and adri In Phinney Smith if those guys 840 00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:27,320 Speaker 3: can be consistent and relied upon like they were earlier 841 00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:28,680 Speaker 3: in the series. But you also knew it was like 842 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:30,239 Speaker 3: they were kind of punching above their weight to do 843 00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:33,239 Speaker 3: it the entire series without Kristaps. So, but that's the 844 00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 3: sort of system I think that Luca is best in 845 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 3: when it's like, you know, it's like Lebron, you know, 846 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:39,680 Speaker 3: when he was at his prime, like or in his 847 00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:42,440 Speaker 3: Cleveland days, like spread him around with shooters and let 848 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 3: him dictate how he's going to facilitate the offense. 849 00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:47,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, and I would have liked to have seen, honestly, 850 00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 4: the Mavericks play the Nuggets or the Jazz. I wonder 851 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:52,840 Speaker 4: if they would have beaten them in the first round series. No, 852 00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 4: I know, the porzingis injury, you know, MUCKs things up. 853 00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:59,040 Speaker 4: But they are playing the Clippers here, who people had 854 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:02,000 Speaker 4: as a Championshi contender from day one, you know, when 855 00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:04,560 Speaker 4: they bring in Kawhi and Paul George and yeah, they 856 00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 4: were missing a lot of guys throughout the year, but 857 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 4: everyone had them on the short list of teams to 858 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:09,279 Speaker 4: win the title. So this is not like, oh, what 859 00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:12,080 Speaker 4: a tough first round loss, you know, like the complete opposite. 860 00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 4: They're playing on what should be one of the best 861 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:15,799 Speaker 4: teams in the league. And I wonder if they would 862 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:18,160 Speaker 4: have advanced to the second round if they matched up 863 00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:20,600 Speaker 4: almost against anybody except the Lakers are close. 864 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:24,080 Speaker 1: It's possible. It's possible. All right, let's keep it moving here. 865 00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:26,719 Speaker 4: We're gonna get to the Celtics Raptors Game one second 866 00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:30,080 Speaker 4: round series. But first get the guitar. Maybe I don't know, 867 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:32,880 Speaker 4: quick word from our sponsors there, Oh. 868 00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:34,600 Speaker 5: You better believe I wrote a song for today. No 869 00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:39,400 Speaker 5: guitar though, groom, groom groom, groom. I want to see you, groom. 870 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:42,960 Speaker 5: Let's spend the night together, but first let's see you groom. 871 00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:45,920 Speaker 5: Another week of Manscape Dads. Baby, don't turn this off. 872 00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:48,799 Speaker 5: That's the extent of the song. Yeah, we've been doing 873 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:52,560 Speaker 5: Manscaped Dads for so long that the following copy has 874 00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:56,880 Speaker 5: already gone through three phases. It was believable. Then it 875 00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:58,759 Speaker 5: didn't seem like it was happening. But now it's come 876 00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:01,640 Speaker 5: all the way back around and it's definitely a possibility. 877 00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:05,800 Speaker 5: Live sports are back. We may see an NBA playoff 878 00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:09,239 Speaker 5: matchup between the Clippers and the Nuggets in the second round. 879 00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:11,240 Speaker 1: Ooh yeah, still possible. 880 00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 5: One more win for Denver. That's why our partners at 881 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:16,960 Speaker 5: Manscaped have partnered with us to make sure your nuggets 882 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:20,640 Speaker 5: are as safe as possible when that matchup happens. And 883 00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:23,319 Speaker 5: if you aren't freshening up, you're undercarriage. After hearing a 884 00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:26,480 Speaker 5: fresh daily Manscaped ad for the last few weeks, I 885 00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 5: don't know how to help you. Honestly, forget Manscape products 886 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,520 Speaker 5: for a second. Just take care of yourself a little bit, 887 00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:35,960 Speaker 5: regardless of what tools you own. Hit the groom room 888 00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:39,279 Speaker 5: for ten minutes and make it happen. But if you 889 00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:42,799 Speaker 5: want to do it right, grab some manscape gear. Lee. 890 00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:44,279 Speaker 5: Do you have a groom room? I know you have 891 00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:47,160 Speaker 5: a boom room. 892 00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:50,800 Speaker 3: The groom room is the boom room you have. Gross, 893 00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:53,879 Speaker 3: there's a lot of hair on my hairy God, there's 894 00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:57,400 Speaker 3: a lot of hair in my house, all over. 895 00:38:57,280 --> 00:39:00,600 Speaker 1: That white coach. Yeah. 896 00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:02,520 Speaker 5: I hope it's the dice in room as well. 897 00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:06,040 Speaker 3: Uh yeah, yeah, don't get me started on the dice. 898 00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:07,319 Speaker 3: I don't know the bad dy with the dice. 899 00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, no, wonder it's not working. You're clogging it up 900 00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:10,239 Speaker 4: with all your. 901 00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:14,239 Speaker 3: Yeah, but my hair isn't long.

But yeah, I'm out on the diceon. 903 00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:17,120 Speaker 3: I'm out. 904 00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:18,040 Speaker 1: Give me a shock. 905 00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 5: You never know, Mike Dyson is making a comeback in October. 906 00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:26,200 Speaker 5: You never all right.

It 922 00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:14,200 Speaker 4: was a rough first quarter and it didn't really get 923 00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 4: much better from there. Celtics played a pretty damn good 924 00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:17,200 Speaker 4: game of basketball. 925 00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:20,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's all I can say about this one for 926 00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:23,880 Speaker 3: the Raptors. Now listen watching this game. Fantastic performance from 927 00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:26,080 Speaker 3: the Celtics. They were on their game from the start. 928 00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:28,840 Speaker 3: They scored easily, they defended well. The Raptors couldn't score 929 00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:31,040 Speaker 3: at all, and their offense looked awful. See after we 930 00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:33,560 Speaker 3: getting three fouls in the first quarter. I certainly didn't help. 931 00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:36,480 Speaker 3: But two years ago, if you remember, in the second round, 932 00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:38,600 Speaker 3: the Raptors played the Cads in a game that they 933 00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 3: should have won, but they lost, and basically they lost 934 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:44,080 Speaker 3: the entire series with that one game, even though I 935 00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:45,719 Speaker 3: know it took a game winner from Lebron in Game 936 00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:47,960 Speaker 3: three of that series. But you've just felt that the 937 00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:51,320 Speaker 3: Raptors didn't win that game and that affected them mentally. 938 00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:52,200 Speaker 1: That really just. 939 00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:54,399 Speaker 4: Right right you're talking about the game where they had 940 00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:55,920 Speaker 4: like seven chances to tip the ball. 941 00:40:57,280 --> 00:40:59,719 Speaker 3: Yes, yes, yes, yes, So they lose that game and 942 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:02,120 Speaker 3: you could just tell that it was like, oh my god, 943 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:06,719 Speaker 3: how they lost the unlosable game. Now, this game wasn't unlosable. 944 00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:09,480 Speaker 3: And the Raptors are so much different from them because 945 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 3: mentally they're a very strong team. Go back to last 946 00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:14,000 Speaker 3: season in the playoffs, every round except for the finals, 947 00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:16,120 Speaker 3: they were down in a series, they tailed in a series, 948 00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:18,360 Speaker 3: and they fought back, and I think that's a credit 949 00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:20,160 Speaker 3: to Nick Nurse, but also just to the players. They 950 00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:22,520 Speaker 3: are experiencing their veterans, and that's what if you're a 951 00:41:22,640 --> 00:41:25,200 Speaker 3: Raptors fan, you are hoping to see now in game two, 952 00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:28,400 Speaker 3: like a pretty quick bounce back, a pretty quick response, 953 00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:31,239 Speaker 3: because Game one was as bad as I think the 954 00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:32,200 Speaker 3: Raptors could have played. 955 00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:32,840 Speaker 1: I really do. 956 00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:35,560 Speaker 3: I didn't see anyone out there who seemed to get 957 00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:37,000 Speaker 3: in any sort of flow. And again, a lot of 958 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:38,920 Speaker 3: that I think goes to the Celtics defense and just 959 00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:41,560 Speaker 3: the way that they played from the start. The Celtics 960 00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:43,960 Speaker 3: jumped on the Raptors from the start, and anytime the 961 00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 3: Raptors got that lead to sort of nine or eight points, 962 00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:48,840 Speaker 3: it just felt then all of a sudden, the Celtics 963 00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:51,160 Speaker 3: rattled off three or four straight baskets. Kemball was great. 964 00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:53,359 Speaker 3: Jason Tatum, I think he only finished with twenty one 965 00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:54,480 Speaker 3: in the end, but it felt like he had a 966 00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:57,880 Speaker 3: way bigger impact on the game. And Marcus Smart was 967 00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:00,000 Speaker 3: also very, very good for the Celtics at both ends. 968 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:02,720 Speaker 3: So this one you could look out and go, wow, 969 00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:05,160 Speaker 3: the Raptors are in trouble here, and before they won 970 00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:07,560 Speaker 3: the championship, I would say absolutely they're in trouble. But 971 00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:10,719 Speaker 3: having won the championship and shown last season that they 972 00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:13,200 Speaker 3: mentally are a lot tougher team, I think this is 973 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:16,520 Speaker 3: just one of those ugly games. They missed five days. 974 00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:20,799 Speaker 3: Kyle Larry talked about the emotional things that they've gone through. 975 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:23,000 Speaker 3: Of course, with a couple of days off, so they 976 00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:24,880 Speaker 3: weren't on the they didn't get off to a good start. 977 00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:27,640 Speaker 3: But I think the Raptors just don't need to panic anyway, 978 00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:29,200 Speaker 3: and I don't think they will. I think they'll be 979 00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:32,160 Speaker 3: much better in Game two. I certainly hope so, because 980 00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:34,719 Speaker 3: otherwise this series could be over very quickly if the 981 00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:37,799 Speaker 3: Raptors can't sort of shake off that performance. 982 00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:42,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, the Raptors first quarter eleven fouls committed, okay, three 983 00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:47,320 Speaker 4: of them on Siakam, Ugly turnover after ugly turnover, missing 984 00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:50,359 Speaker 4: makeable shots at times, and we're down thirty nine to 985 00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:55,160 Speaker 4: twenty three. They could not find any sort of rhythm offensively. Now, 986 00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:57,160 Speaker 4: they never really found it all game, and that's the 987 00:42:57,200 --> 00:42:59,520 Speaker 4: concern task if you're a Raps fan. Celtics are a 988 00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:02,319 Speaker 4: damn good defensive team. They took away the transition lee. 989 00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:04,399 Speaker 4: That's something you talked about heading into the series. Raps 990 00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:07,000 Speaker 4: only had seven fast break points, and that is with 991 00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:09,160 Speaker 4: the Celtics actually turning the ball over a lot. They 992 00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:12,560 Speaker 4: just are so athletic, so discipline defensively, they just screen 993 00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:15,279 Speaker 4: back on defense and they're like, just don't let the 994 00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:18,160 Speaker 4: Raps score in transition because we think we can slow 995 00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:21,239 Speaker 4: them enough. When it's half court and you know, so far, 996 00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:23,319 Speaker 4: so good. Of course after one game, really now two 997 00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:25,279 Speaker 4: games down in the bubble where they've done a great job, 998 00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:26,960 Speaker 4: But are you concerned tasks. 999 00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:30,440 Speaker 5: As a Raps fan, one hundred percent definitely concerned. The 1000 00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:33,680 Speaker 5: Celtics team is not going to give up transition points. 1001 00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:37,520 Speaker 5: The Raptor's weakness is what the Celtics are going to 1002 00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:43,719 Speaker 5: try and illuminate here or highlight, and their weakness is 1003 00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:46,680 Speaker 5: half court offense. I mean, that's that's where the problem is. 1004 00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:48,680 Speaker 5: Where's it going to come from. I think a few 1005 00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:51,440 Speaker 5: things here. I think they maybe tried to push Pascal 1006 00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:54,120 Speaker 5: Siakam a little bit into that number one role, maybe 1007 00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:56,120 Speaker 5: try to focus on him a little too much, maybe 1008 00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:57,879 Speaker 5: tried to get him going a little bit too much. 1009 00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:00,760 Speaker 5: I'm just trying to find an excuse for why Pascal 1010 00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:04,319 Speaker 5: Siakam was missing bunnies at the rim over Jalen Brown, 1011 00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:06,279 Speaker 5: who defended him well, and they were definitely ready for 1012 00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:08,839 Speaker 5: that spin, but he was also missing the three point shot. 1013 00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:12,359 Speaker 5: Pascal Siakam was not good, and he's definitely the guy 1014 00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:16,200 Speaker 5: who can overcome any sort of great half court defense. 1015 00:44:16,239 --> 00:44:17,799 Speaker 5: He's the guy who can just get his shot at 1016 00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:20,080 Speaker 5: any time, so Pascal has to be better. Maybe if 1017 00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:22,320 Speaker 5: it's in the flow of the offense, it'll matter a 1018 00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:25,320 Speaker 5: little bit more, or he'll be a little less. I 1019 00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:27,120 Speaker 5: don't know, Deer in the headlights. I'm the number one 1020 00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:29,839 Speaker 5: guy here in a tough series. But he just missed 1021 00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:33,080 Speaker 5: bunnies and that was that was weird to see him 1022 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:36,000 Speaker 5: get Jalen Brown down to the rim and then front 1023 00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:39,239 Speaker 5: rim it a couple times there early and so he 1024 00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:42,920 Speaker 5: had just a terrible night offensively. And I think you 1025 00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:45,920 Speaker 5: may have to go small, as we talked about Pascal 1026 00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:48,680 Speaker 5: Siakam and og Ananobi at the four or five sit 1027 00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:53,000 Speaker 5: down Gasol and Surge, just to try and space it 1028 00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:55,359 Speaker 5: out as much because the Celtics defense is so good, 1029 00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:57,520 Speaker 5: or maybe you have Mark Gasol on the floor and 1030 00:44:57,600 --> 00:45:00,319 Speaker 5: let him guard Marcus Smart. It's a great suggestion from 1031 00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:03,600 Speaker 5: our colleague Blake Murphy to see if the Celtics go 1032 00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:06,319 Speaker 5: to him a little bit, if the Celtics go away 1033 00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:08,480 Speaker 5: from Jalen Brown, Jason Tatum, m kemba Walker at all 1034 00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:10,919 Speaker 5: and try and get Marcus Smart going on Marcus Sol 1035 00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:15,319 Speaker 5: because Gasol's struggling out there on out there trying to 1036 00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:17,279 Speaker 5: you know, hang with Daniel Tye on the perimeter and 1037 00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:20,880 Speaker 5: then hang with guards. So I think the Marcus Smart 1038 00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:24,120 Speaker 5: experiment might not be bad. But we didn't see Nick 1039 00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:27,200 Speaker 5: Nurse have to adapt because this was a frigging blowout, 1040 00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:29,480 Speaker 5: and so I think I think Nurse would have in 1041 00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:32,279 Speaker 5: the fourth quarter if he needed to, because he is 1042 00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:34,400 Speaker 5: that kind of guy and we know he will try 1043 00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:37,840 Speaker 5: some things. But I'm definitely worried about the half court offense, 1044 00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:39,799 Speaker 5: especially when Kyle Lowry looked good and he had a 1045 00:45:39,800 --> 00:45:42,520 Speaker 5: seventeen point night, and you know, Kyle Lowry might have 1046 00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:47,000 Speaker 5: some duds in this series. You need, you desperately need 1047 00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:51,920 Speaker 5: somebody like Fred you know, Og to have a big 1048 00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:53,799 Speaker 5: game or a Norman Pwell to have a big game. 1049 00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:56,719 Speaker 5: And you got a great surge game as well. So yeah, 1050 00:45:56,760 --> 00:45:59,840 Speaker 5: definitely definitely concerned with where the points are going to 1051 00:45:59,880 --> 00:46:00,440 Speaker 5: come from. 1052 00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:03,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, Lowry gave the Raptors a chance at the end 1053 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:05,680 Speaker 4: of the third quarter. I thought he sort of did 1054 00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:07,799 Speaker 4: his classic like takes over the game for three or 1055 00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:10,000 Speaker 4: four minutes to give him a fighter's chance. And then 1056 00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:12,280 Speaker 4: the start of the fourth quarter happens, There's a Lowry 1057 00:46:12,280 --> 00:46:14,920 Speaker 4: score again, the Raptors get a stop and then Lowry 1058 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,520 Speaker 4: turns the ball over and Brad Wanamaker hits a three, 1059 00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:19,200 Speaker 4: and it was like, oh, all that great work you 1060 00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:21,560 Speaker 4: did Lowry. There he sort of just gave away there 1061 00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:24,719 Speaker 4: on a brutal It was a brutal, brutal turnover. But otherwise, Yeah, 1062 00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:28,560 Speaker 4: Sergeo was okay. Lowry played fine. I thought everyone else sucked. 1063 00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:30,759 Speaker 4: Van Vliet sucked. He's having another baby. He was three 1064 00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:32,719 Speaker 4: or sixteen, two of eleven from deep You hope that 1065 00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:35,640 Speaker 4: doesn't happen again. But yeah, Trey, I'm interested to hear 1066 00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:38,200 Speaker 4: take You had the Celtics obviously in the series and seven. 1067 00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:40,479 Speaker 4: A lot of us picking a seven game series here, 1068 00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:44,640 Speaker 4: like you, what did you take away from this game? 1069 00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:46,640 Speaker 4: One of how well the Celtics played or how poorly 1070 00:46:46,640 --> 00:46:47,480 Speaker 4: the Raptors did. 1071 00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:51,000 Speaker 2: Well, the main thing that sticks out is the Raptors 1072 00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:52,359 Speaker 2: going ten for forty from three. 1073 00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:53,200 Speaker 1: That's terrible. 1074 00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:55,120 Speaker 2: You're not gonna win a game shooting twenty five percent 1075 00:46:55,160 --> 00:46:57,799 Speaker 2: from three. And then, you know, you would assume that 1076 00:46:57,840 --> 00:46:59,880 Speaker 2: the Raptors will shoot a little bit better going forward 1077 00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:02,080 Speaker 2: the series, and you also don't expect Marcus Smart to 1078 00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:05,560 Speaker 2: make five threes. But the offense just comes easier for 1079 00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:09,000 Speaker 2: the Celtics. You know, I thought Kemba Walker was incredible yesterday. 1080 00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:11,879 Speaker 2: He was just in complete control in the pick and roll, 1081 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:13,839 Speaker 2: finding out whether he's going to take a jump shot, 1082 00:47:13,880 --> 00:47:15,279 Speaker 2: whether he's going to get to the rim, whether he's 1083 00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:16,719 Speaker 2: going to set something up for somebody else. 1084 00:47:16,719 --> 00:47:18,399 Speaker 1: And I thought Tye was great too. 1085 00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:20,799 Speaker 2: He really outplayed Mark Gasol being a fulk rum for 1086 00:47:20,840 --> 00:47:23,560 Speaker 2: the offense, cutt into the hoop, hitting the glass, scoring points. 1087 00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:25,600 Speaker 1: This Raptors are going to have to. 1088 00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:27,160 Speaker 2: Go small if Gasol is not going to do anything 1089 00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:29,320 Speaker 2: out there, if he's not playing defense, if he's passing 1090 00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:31,560 Speaker 2: up shots. It's the classic Mark Gasol, what are you 1091 00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:34,439 Speaker 2: out there doing? You're just out there and they need more. 1092 00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:36,799 Speaker 2: They need the Raptors need to find a way to 1093 00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:39,520 Speaker 2: score some points because I mean, the Celtics played good. 1094 00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:41,799 Speaker 2: Their defense was really really good. I thought in the 1095 00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:44,160 Speaker 2: first half, like Lowry, he ended up with a decent line, 1096 00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:45,800 Speaker 2: but I didn't think he was really doing anything in 1097 00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:48,160 Speaker 2: the first two quarters of the game. And that's really 1098 00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:50,000 Speaker 2: where the game was lost for the Raptors. They were 1099 00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:52,000 Speaker 2: down by seventeen at halftime, and that's tough to come 1100 00:47:52,040 --> 00:47:54,239 Speaker 2: back from then you look at the Celtics. It didn't 1101 00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:57,279 Speaker 2: feel like anybody played an incredible game, but you still 1102 00:47:57,280 --> 00:48:00,000 Speaker 2: get twenty five twenty one from Smart, twenty one from Tatum, 1103 00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:03,400 Speaker 2: seventeen for Brown, eighteen from Kemba Walker. The points just 1104 00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:05,640 Speaker 2: pile up because they have so many options out there. 1105 00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:08,000 Speaker 2: The Raptors got to find a way to get out 1106 00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:09,879 Speaker 2: in transition because the Celtics do a great job. 1107 00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:11,520 Speaker 1: They turned the ball over a lot. 1108 00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:13,719 Speaker 2: Yesterday, twenty two turnovers, but most of them were not 1109 00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:16,279 Speaker 2: live ball turnovers, and the ones that they were, the 1110 00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:19,399 Speaker 2: Celtics are a little bit faster, smaller, more athletic team. 1111 00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:20,919 Speaker 1: They do a great job of getting back. 1112 00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:23,120 Speaker 2: So if Siakam's not gonna be able to score on 1113 00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:25,839 Speaker 2: Marcus Smart, maybe you just got to go small and 1114 00:48:25,880 --> 00:48:28,239 Speaker 2: try and run as much as you possibly can. Figure 1115 00:48:28,280 --> 00:48:30,279 Speaker 2: out a way to get a little more space out 1116 00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:33,240 Speaker 2: there so that Fred van Vliet can get some good looks. 1117 00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:37,000 Speaker 2: It's just one game, right, like we saw the Celtics. 1118 00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:39,560 Speaker 2: The Celtics beat the Bucks last year right in Game 1119 00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:41,520 Speaker 2: one and then they ended up losing in five games. 1120 00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:45,839 Speaker 2: This can turn in a second the Raptors. They've won 1121 00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:49,160 Speaker 2: a Game one, once right in franchise history, literally one time. 1122 00:48:49,239 --> 00:48:51,320 Speaker 2: This is where they are meant to be. This is 1123 00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:52,920 Speaker 2: still going to be a long series. It's still going 1124 00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:55,080 Speaker 2: to be a great series. Can't wait to see the adjustments. 1125 00:48:55,640 --> 00:48:58,839 Speaker 2: But Toronto just played really, really poorly yesterday. I thought 1126 00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:01,440 Speaker 2: the Celtics were good, great, so it ended up being 1127 00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:02,480 Speaker 2: a nice win for Boston. 1128 00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:05,759 Speaker 4: Here's an email we got, sup No Dunk's crew is 1129 00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:10,320 Speaker 4: Pascal siakam overrated. Nothing he does on f offense is smooth. 1130 00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:14,040 Speaker 4: Everything seems rush. That was from Dustin and like you said, 1131 00:49:14,040 --> 00:49:15,880 Speaker 4: it was a rough Game one. Let's be honest, tasks. 1132 00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:18,279 Speaker 4: He's been bad in the entire restart. He has not 1133 00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:20,840 Speaker 4: played well in the bubble. He's averaging under eighteen points 1134 00:49:20,840 --> 00:49:23,759 Speaker 4: per game, shooting under forty percent, can't really hit a three, 1135 00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:28,160 Speaker 4: He's like at thirty one percent there. And I am 1136 00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:31,759 Speaker 4: concerned in like, these teams are so great defensively and 1137 00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:33,719 Speaker 4: if they're going to take away transition, if they can 1138 00:49:33,800 --> 00:49:36,399 Speaker 4: the Celtics, and it's gonna be half court offense versus 1139 00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:38,279 Speaker 4: half court offense. I think Trey, you're sort of right. 1140 00:49:38,600 --> 00:49:41,279 Speaker 4: I got a lot more faith in a Tatum and 1141 00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:43,480 Speaker 4: maybe even a Brown and maybe even a Kemba for 1142 00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:46,680 Speaker 4: that matter, to create something in a one on one 1143 00:49:46,719 --> 00:49:49,719 Speaker 4: setting of breaking down a guy and at least getting 1144 00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:51,440 Speaker 4: into the paint either to the line or setting up 1145 00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:53,920 Speaker 4: another guy that I may be doing the Raptors because Siakam. 1146 00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:56,480 Speaker 4: I mean, look, there used to be debates like Tatum 1147 00:49:56,560 --> 00:49:59,120 Speaker 4: or Siakam. Tata is Siakam. I love Siakam. I'm a 1148 00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:01,200 Speaker 4: raptors him. There's no way in the world you're taking 1149 00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:04,360 Speaker 4: Siakam over him. You're just not because Tatum he can dribble, 1150 00:50:04,600 --> 00:50:06,520 Speaker 4: he has handled, he can look at you, he can 1151 00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:08,720 Speaker 4: square you up and go buy you. That's the problem 1152 00:50:08,760 --> 00:50:11,319 Speaker 4: that to me, Siakam can spin until he's left, you know, 1153 00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:14,800 Speaker 4: the spin until he's dizzy. But that it's it's different. 1154 00:50:14,880 --> 00:50:17,040 Speaker 4: It's just to me, that part's a little different. Now, Yeah, 1155 00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:18,880 Speaker 4: he was he was missing bunnies inside because he's a 1156 00:50:18,880 --> 00:50:20,520 Speaker 4: big dude and he had smaller guys on him. But 1157 00:50:21,200 --> 00:50:24,360 Speaker 4: I think the Celtics are happy with that type of offense. 1158 00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:26,480 Speaker 4: If that's what the Raptors have to do. I'm a 1159 00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:28,680 Speaker 4: little concerned. I will say after one game. You know, 1160 00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:31,360 Speaker 4: we've been here before with the raps. But the Celtics 1161 00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:33,640 Speaker 4: might just be a bad matchup for this team because 1162 00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:35,440 Speaker 4: they played damn good defense and that's what you got 1163 00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:35,640 Speaker 4: to do. 1164 00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:39,399 Speaker 5: Sure, of course, their perimeter defenders are tough, and that's 1165 00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:41,719 Speaker 5: why you saw Fred van Vliet see a lot of 1166 00:50:41,800 --> 00:50:44,040 Speaker 5: length and have a bad game outside. And Kyle Lowry, 1167 00:50:44,520 --> 00:50:46,839 Speaker 5: I thought, yeah, he was definitely slow in the first half, 1168 00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:48,920 Speaker 5: but he's not going to score a lot more than 1169 00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:51,759 Speaker 5: what he got there with seventeen points. So it is 1170 00:50:51,800 --> 00:50:53,840 Speaker 5: going to be up to Passcal Siaka. I'm not going 1171 00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:56,080 Speaker 5: to hope for ogn and Obi to have a monstrous game. 1172 00:50:56,200 --> 00:51:00,279 Speaker 5: And Norman Powell maybe yes, maybe no. Pascal Siakam is 1173 00:51:00,400 --> 00:51:04,200 Speaker 5: definitely no. You wouldn't take him over Jason Tatum, no chance, 1174 00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:08,600 Speaker 5: because you know Tatum is on that superstar threshold. While 1175 00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:12,160 Speaker 5: Pascal Siakam it's different being a number one option in 1176 00:51:12,160 --> 00:51:14,120 Speaker 5: the regular season than it is in the playoffs. It 1177 00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:18,000 Speaker 5: was a it was definitely a worry. I think people 1178 00:51:18,080 --> 00:51:20,040 Speaker 5: just say he's a number one option because he has 1179 00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 5: had to take that role on He's he's he's the 1180 00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:27,080 Speaker 5: next logical option when Kawhi Leonard left. It's just it's 1181 00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:30,000 Speaker 5: just logic but it's not it's not necessarily that he's 1182 00:51:30,040 --> 00:51:33,520 Speaker 5: he's been able to, you know, to to seamlessly go 1183 00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:36,280 Speaker 5: into that again. Regular season is just so much different. 1184 00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:39,879 Speaker 5: But we all thought he was ready for this role 1185 00:51:39,920 --> 00:51:42,920 Speaker 5: because of his growth. Just to be able to score inside. 1186 00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:46,880 Speaker 5: It's definitely been a bad bubble situation. Game four against 1187 00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:49,400 Speaker 5: the Nets was better his last game before the series, 1188 00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:51,200 Speaker 5: so it looked like he was coming on. But yeah, 1189 00:51:51,239 --> 00:51:54,080 Speaker 5: he he should be able to hit a four foot 1190 00:51:54,080 --> 00:51:56,160 Speaker 5: bunny that has nothing to do with handles, that has 1191 00:51:56,200 --> 00:52:00,239 Speaker 5: nothing to do with being able to square up a 1192 00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:02,680 Speaker 5: guy and go buy him. It's just a buddy. So 1193 00:52:03,160 --> 00:52:04,680 Speaker 5: that's where he's going to score his points. And we 1194 00:52:04,719 --> 00:52:07,359 Speaker 5: saw Joel Embiid sort of shut him down last year. 1195 00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:10,279 Speaker 5: A big body in the middle in Round two with 1196 00:52:10,280 --> 00:52:13,319 Speaker 5: the seventy six ers and Pascal Siakam, you know, like 1197 00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:15,759 Speaker 5: Fred van Vliet, like the rest of the Raptors just 1198 00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:18,479 Speaker 5: plugged away and found a way to contribute deep into 1199 00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:21,200 Speaker 5: the playoffs and kick. But against the Golden State Warriors 1200 00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:22,839 Speaker 5: trade this is where I got to correct. You said 1201 00:52:22,840 --> 00:52:24,759 Speaker 5: they won one game one in franchise history. I think 1202 00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:27,560 Speaker 5: they've won three. They won two. They won two last year, 1203 00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:28,600 Speaker 5: including the Warriors. 1204 00:52:28,680 --> 00:52:31,800 Speaker 3: Well, I've won four. They won that Vince and Ilivison series. 1205 00:52:31,800 --> 00:52:33,359 Speaker 3: I won game one of that series too, at. 1206 00:52:33,280 --> 00:52:35,240 Speaker 5: Least, Well, there we go. I think that's that's probably 1207 00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:38,239 Speaker 5: that's probably the extent. It's probably four, but it's not 1208 00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:44,359 Speaker 5: four and twenty five years sweet, But yeah, it's not. 1209 00:52:44,560 --> 00:52:46,759 Speaker 5: He wasn't born a number one guy, but just the 1210 00:52:46,760 --> 00:52:49,880 Speaker 5: way he's grown, we thought he would be ready for it. 1211 00:52:49,960 --> 00:52:53,200 Speaker 5: He just wasn't ready for it yesterday. And yeah, they're 1212 00:52:53,239 --> 00:52:56,600 Speaker 5: a bad matchup because of the length of Shorty Fred. 1213 00:52:56,600 --> 00:52:58,319 Speaker 5: He's not he's not a big man. But if there's 1214 00:52:58,320 --> 00:53:01,320 Speaker 5: gonna be hands in his face the entire time, somebody 1215 00:53:01,360 --> 00:53:05,240 Speaker 5: else has got to help. And you would think Paski 1216 00:53:05,320 --> 00:53:08,160 Speaker 5: could do it. I think he's he's he's longer, and 1217 00:53:08,200 --> 00:53:11,280 Speaker 5: he's bigger than Jalen Brown. He's not tougher than Marcus Smart. 1218 00:53:11,360 --> 00:53:13,840 Speaker 5: And that's the weird part to me. I say tougher, 1219 00:53:13,840 --> 00:53:15,880 Speaker 5: I mean, you can't post up Marcus Smart. Well, I 1220 00:53:15,880 --> 00:53:18,200 Speaker 5: don't know why anybody tries. It's just it's you're just 1221 00:53:18,320 --> 00:53:20,439 Speaker 5: it's not gonna work. Even though Pascal Siakam is bigger. 1222 00:53:20,480 --> 00:53:22,440 Speaker 5: That was a weird part to me, Pascal Siakam and 1223 00:53:22,480 --> 00:53:25,359 Speaker 5: Sergea Baka as well playing in the post. What are 1224 00:53:25,360 --> 00:53:27,520 Speaker 5: we doing here? We're not a post team, There's just not. 1225 00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:30,040 Speaker 5: And Pascal occasionally can go in the post, for sure, 1226 00:53:30,080 --> 00:53:33,000 Speaker 5: but this game to me was lost. They're down twelve 1227 00:53:33,719 --> 00:53:36,080 Speaker 5: end of the first half and you're you're posting up 1228 00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:38,720 Speaker 5: serge of Baka. This isn't year one of serge Abaka 1229 00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:40,960 Speaker 5: with the OKC thunder here trying to figure out what 1230 00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:44,040 Speaker 5: he is. Uh, and then he turned it over because 1231 00:53:44,080 --> 00:53:46,000 Speaker 5: it's not his game. And then it goes It's a 1232 00:53:46,080 --> 00:53:47,719 Speaker 5: seventeen point game at half when it could have been 1233 00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:50,000 Speaker 5: single digits. Uh, you know, not to point out one 1234 00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:51,839 Speaker 5: play and say that that's what it was, but I 1235 00:53:51,880 --> 00:53:54,960 Speaker 5: think this team doesn't score in the post, and it 1236 00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:57,000 Speaker 5: was a It was a strange thing. Nick Nurse. Nurse 1237 00:53:57,080 --> 00:53:58,960 Speaker 5: was trying with the size. I think, I think he'll 1238 00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:01,439 Speaker 5: probably swing it the other way and go small soon. 1239 00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:02,080 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1240 00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:05,080 Speaker 4: And again, this was a textbook sort of team effort 1241 00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:07,160 Speaker 4: here from the Celtics, because you're right, no one had 1242 00:54:07,239 --> 00:54:09,799 Speaker 4: like a dominant game, but everybody was just good. It 1243 00:54:09,840 --> 00:54:12,360 Speaker 4: felt like smart hitting five threes and Tatum with the 1244 00:54:12,360 --> 00:54:15,280 Speaker 4: twenty one. You guys said, you know, shooting fifty percent 1245 00:54:15,320 --> 00:54:18,280 Speaker 4: from the floor. Brown didn't shoot well but still hit threes. 1246 00:54:18,320 --> 00:54:22,879 Speaker 4: Obviously is a positive out there. Kemba totally fine. Four 1247 00:54:22,960 --> 00:54:26,640 Speaker 4: threes Tice on the boards, time Lord five for five. 1248 00:54:26,760 --> 00:54:28,839 Speaker 4: I mean that's big. That's found money right there, giving 1249 00:54:28,880 --> 00:54:32,160 Speaker 4: them ten points used to win. Sorry, that sounds a 1250 00:54:32,239 --> 00:54:33,359 Speaker 4: huge wind Melton that he had. 1251 00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:36,719 Speaker 2: That was shades of Lebron spinning the ball on the 1252 00:54:36,800 --> 00:54:38,960 Speaker 2: sideline against the Raptors. 1253 00:54:39,160 --> 00:54:39,880 Speaker 1: How dare you? 1254 00:54:39,920 --> 00:54:42,239 Speaker 4: And then not even Brad Wannamaker. Yeah, hitting a couple 1255 00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:45,480 Speaker 4: threes too. They they really got contributions from basically everybody 1256 00:54:45,520 --> 00:54:47,480 Speaker 4: that played in this game. So a really nice win 1257 00:54:47,520 --> 00:54:50,080 Speaker 4: for the Celtics and we'll see what happens moving forward. 1258 00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:53,400 Speaker 4: I'm a little concerned. I'll be honest, the Bean Town boys, 1259 00:54:53,719 --> 00:54:55,560 Speaker 4: I'm gonna be wearing a green hat by the end 1260 00:54:55,560 --> 00:54:57,640 Speaker 4: of this. I can see it now. Maybe that's what 1261 00:54:57,760 --> 00:54:59,960 Speaker 4: that's the pick and payoff here. If the Raptors lose. 1262 00:54:59,840 --> 00:55:02,600 Speaker 3: This, thet. 1263 00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:05,960 Speaker 4: I have a green hat. That's a fine one. All right, 1264 00:55:06,280 --> 00:55:08,840 Speaker 4: let's keep it going here. Got some news quickly thunderguard 1265 00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:11,400 Speaker 4: Dennis Ruder and Rockets forward PJ. Tucker were fined twenty 1266 00:55:11,400 --> 00:55:14,680 Speaker 4: five thousand dollars each after their altercation in Game five 1267 00:55:14,760 --> 00:55:19,000 Speaker 4: over the weekend. NBA executive Kiki vandwe announced the punishment 1268 00:55:19,000 --> 00:55:19,600 Speaker 4: on Sunday. 1269 00:55:19,760 --> 00:55:22,239 Speaker 1: Kiki doesn't love it. Would you punch it? 1270 00:55:22,520 --> 00:55:26,800 Speaker 4: Bead you Red Dennis Tuckers.

A honk, you know, a 1277 00:55:45,840 --> 00:55:48,040 Speaker 2: honk fifty to fifty It might actually feel all right, 1278 00:55:48,080 --> 00:55:49,960 Speaker 2: but a punch one hundred percent that hurts. 1279 00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:50,719 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1280 00:55:50,800 --> 00:55:52,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, this is a yeah, because we talked about Truder 1281 00:55:52,680 --> 00:55:54,840 Speaker 4: getting a game way back when he was a rookie 1282 00:55:54,920 --> 00:55:56,520 Speaker 4: with the Hawks, and he did more of a honk 1283 00:55:56,800 --> 00:55:58,759 Speaker 4: sort of punch on cousins, if you want to call 1284 00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:00,960 Speaker 4: it that. But the league said in the statement Truder 1285 00:56:01,080 --> 00:56:03,720 Speaker 4: was fine for making contact to the groin area, Okay, duh, 1286 00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:07,520 Speaker 4: And it said Tucker was fined for quote approaching Shrewder 1287 00:56:07,600 --> 00:56:11,040 Speaker 4: and making contact with him in escalation of the altercation. 1288 00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:14,200 Speaker 4: But that is contact with the guard did not meet 1289 00:56:14,280 --> 00:56:16,440 Speaker 4: the standout for a head butt. 1290 00:56:17,280 --> 00:56:17,760 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1291 00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:20,480 Speaker 4: So do you remember we were talking about Jiannis and 1292 00:56:20,520 --> 00:56:23,480 Speaker 4: I brought up how woes he turned it?

He can't handle and he gets 1322 00:57:40,360 --> 00:57:43,360 Speaker 5: beaten on defense when you know that's he's good at it. 1323 00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:46,160 Speaker 5: I don't know what's what's going on other than this 1324 00:57:46,440 --> 00:57:49,920 Speaker 5: just being his first experience here as a starter. But 1325 00:57:49,960 --> 00:57:52,040 Speaker 5: he was, you know, we expected like he was with 1326 00:57:52,080 --> 00:57:55,200 Speaker 5: the Clippers last year and hit hit big shots, you know, 1327 00:57:55,240 --> 00:57:59,560 Speaker 5: as a supporting player. Obviously very different in his role 1328 00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:01,840 Speaker 5: now he's more of a prominent guy. But I don't know, 1329 00:58:01,840 --> 00:58:04,080 Speaker 5: it doesn't look like shake gild justs Alexander whatsoever. 1330 00:58:04,160 --> 00:58:04,680 Speaker 1: No, he doesn't. 1331 00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:06,440 Speaker 4: He's played better today for them to get this to 1332 00:58:06,520 --> 00:58:08,160 Speaker 4: game seven. I think I figured it out though. I 1333 00:58:08,200 --> 00:58:12,120 Speaker 4: think you can only have one Canadian dominating at a 1334 00:58:12,120 --> 00:58:14,840 Speaker 4: particular time. So Jamal Murray right now has all that 1335 00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:17,680 Speaker 4: the Canada power. He's got the juice. SGA is running 1336 00:58:17,680 --> 00:58:19,439 Speaker 4: on empty. It's like you and I task we never 1337 00:58:19,480 --> 00:58:20,680 Speaker 4: both have a great show here. 1338 00:58:21,200 --> 00:58:23,320 Speaker 1: One of us is always bringing it the oh. I 1339 00:58:23,360 --> 00:58:24,960 Speaker 1: mean just it's a Canadian thing. I don't know what 1340 00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:25,240 Speaker 1: it is. 1341 00:58:25,560 --> 00:58:29,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, you're probably right. We can't hog the spotlight. You 1342 00:58:29,920 --> 00:58:31,920 Speaker 5: go ahead here, Okay, well yeah. 1343 00:58:31,760 --> 00:58:34,000 Speaker 4: We'll get just set for today's two playoff games.

Reached for the cool, smooth taste of pists. 1394 01:01:14,920 --> 01:01:20,080 Speaker 1: Because it does look like Luca's drinking over there, little 1395 01:01:20,120 --> 01:01:20,760 Speaker 1: playoff pe. 1396 01:01:23,880 --> 01:01:27,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, because I don't know if it makes. 1397 01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:28,760 Speaker 1: Apple, I mean apple juice apple. 1398 01:01:30,200 --> 01:01:32,720 Speaker 3: Because he's drinking out of an aquafina bottle. Usually they 1399 01:01:32,760 --> 01:01:35,320 Speaker 3: have their own water bottle, so you don't see it 1400 01:01:35,440 --> 01:01:37,440 Speaker 3: like this.

Maybe it's 1407 01:01:50,240 --> 01:01:52,360 Speaker 3: some Slovenian mix that he used to drink in Europe 1408 01:01:52,360 --> 01:01:53,080 Speaker 3: for really, Yeah. 1409 01:01:53,160 --> 01:01:53,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I know. 1410 01:01:53,720 --> 01:01:56,880 Speaker 4: It's it is interesting.

Lee, 1412 01:01:59,760 --> 01:02:02,080 Speaker 4: I'm not, well, I've seen you drinking stuff like that. 1413 01:02:03,080 --> 01:02:04,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, for sure. 1414 01:02:04,480 --> 01:02:06,400 Speaker 3: So and that's why I'm okay with lucat doing. I 1415 01:02:06,400 --> 01:02:08,440 Speaker 3: want to try it if that's piss and he likes it, 1416 01:02:08,800 --> 01:02:16,439 Speaker 3: you know, apparently, did you know? Apparently, because you lose 1417 01:02:16,480 --> 01:02:19,120 Speaker 3: so many nutrients through your urination, a lot of times 1418 01:02:19,160 --> 01:02:22,760 Speaker 3: boxes and fighters and stuff actually drink their piss because 1419 01:02:22,760 --> 01:02:24,920 Speaker 3: they want to get those nutrients back into their body. 1420 01:02:25,400 --> 01:02:26,680 Speaker 5: That's a myth. That's a myth. 1421 01:02:27,640 --> 01:02:28,920 Speaker 1: I've seen I remember seeing it. 1422 01:02:29,040 --> 01:02:31,040 Speaker 3: I seen it one time in a documentary and I'm like, 1423 01:02:31,280 --> 01:02:33,080 Speaker 3: the guy was there and he's drinking his own piss. 1424 01:02:34,080 --> 01:02:36,840 Speaker 5: Well, the myth is that like if you have no 1425 01:02:37,000 --> 01:02:39,800 Speaker 5: access to water, that you can drink your own urine, 1426 01:02:40,120 --> 01:02:42,200 Speaker 5: which is fine, you can to a point, but then 1427 01:02:42,600 --> 01:02:46,680 Speaker 5: you I think you get poisoned basically with ammonia or 1428 01:02:46,720 --> 01:02:51,040 Speaker 5: whatever it is. You wouldn't die, But no one's drinking 1429 01:02:51,080 --> 01:02:55,480 Speaker 5: their piss for any other reason other else to drink. 1430 01:02:55,520 --> 01:02:58,360 Speaker 3: This is from the BBC. Okay, while drinking a small 1431 01:02:58,400 --> 01:03:00,959 Speaker 3: amount of urine is unlikely to be hazardous to your health, 1432 01:03:01,040 --> 01:03:06,360 Speaker 3: there is always, says, not enough modern evidence, but people, people, 1433 01:03:06,800 --> 01:03:08,320 Speaker 3: people still do it. I'll see it. 1434 01:03:10,320 --> 01:03:10,640 Speaker 5: Okay. 1435 01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:14,280 Speaker 4: We are not recommending anybody to drink your own piss. Okay, 1436 01:03:14,400 --> 01:03:15,320 Speaker 4: I just want that on the reck. 1437 01:03:15,400 --> 01:03:22,040 Speaker 3: What about a piss and payoff? We play like pisce roulette. 1438 01:03:22,080 --> 01:03:24,280 Speaker 3: We all piss into a cup, we put it around. 1439 01:03:26,240 --> 01:03:28,240 Speaker 1: Do you think you would be able to identify your 1440 01:03:28,240 --> 01:03:30,160 Speaker 1: own roulette? 1441 01:03:31,320 --> 01:03:33,000 Speaker 4: Did I have Asperius? 1442 01:03:33,160 --> 01:03:34,640 Speaker 1: Yeah?
