0:01:44.040 --> 0:01:47.840
<v Speaker 2>Sonos's deep bass caught my attention and my wife's. After

0:01:47.920 --> 0:01:50.400
<v Speaker 2>I set up our Sonos, she walked upstairs and said,

0:01:50.840 --> 0:01:53.720
<v Speaker 2>something sounds different. I looked her straight in the eyes

0:01:53.720 --> 0:01:57.040
<v Speaker 2>and told her that's Son's baby. Now she agrees that

0:01:57.080 --> 0:01:59.440
<v Speaker 2>Sonos is the best way to listen to every No

0:01:59.600 --> 0:02:04.200
<v Speaker 2>Dunk's classic passes, baritone sounds its fullest, Lee's accent even

0:02:04.240 --> 0:02:07.640
<v Speaker 2>more charming. My cackle comes through clear as a bell.

0:02:08.080 --> 0:02:10.480

<v Speaker 3>heckling at the ring, they should stick to Tiddleywinks and PlayStation.

0:02:32.720 --> 0:02:37.519
<v Speaker 4>Good morning, swimmerl then, welcome to the Now Dumps podcast

0:02:37.600 --> 0:02:42.120
<v Speaker 4>on the Athletic Network. It's Monday, August thirty. First m J.

0:02:42.400 --> 0:02:44.880
<v Speaker 1>Skeets and joining us here as always, Tes.

0:02:44.840 --> 0:02:47.120
<v Speaker 5>Mellis, Hey everybody.

0:02:46.760 --> 0:02:50.760
<v Speaker 4>Hey Testy, we got the Bearded one, Trey Kirby, Hey, hey,

0:02:51.880 --> 0:02:54.040
<v Speaker 4>we got the international band of Mystery taking it to

0:02:54.080 --> 0:02:59.040
<v Speaker 4>the Max Leellis friend, last, but not least.

0:02:58.840 --> 0:02:59.640
<v Speaker 1>Making the magic happen.

0:02:59.720 --> 0:03:02.880
<v Speaker 4>JD. Hello, there he is, and here we are. Thanks

0:03:02.919 --> 0:03:05.760
<v Speaker 4>for joining us. We're going to recap all of yesterday's games.

0:03:05.760 --> 0:03:08.560
<v Speaker 4>But first it's with a heavy heart that I report

0:03:08.600 --> 0:03:14.160
<v Speaker 4>we've lost another basketball icon. Legendary Georgetown coach John Thompson Junior,

0:03:14.520 --> 0:03:17.839
<v Speaker 4>known simply as Big John throughout college hoops, has died

0:03:17.880 --> 0:03:20.720
<v Speaker 4>at age seventy eight. He led George down to the

0:03:20.800 --> 0:03:23.280
<v Speaker 4>nineteen eighty four national championship. He was inducted into the

0:03:23.320 --> 0:03:25.960
<v Speaker 4>Basketball Hall of Fame in ninety nine and famously coached

0:03:26.320 --> 0:03:29.120
<v Speaker 4>future Hall of famers Patrick Ewing and Alonzo Morning and

0:03:29.160 --> 0:03:31.959
<v Speaker 4>to Kene Matumbo and Alan Iverson, and I see a

0:03:32.160 --> 0:03:35.720
<v Speaker 4>rockin the Georgetown Hoya jersey here this morning, Tray.

0:03:36.200 --> 0:03:39.200
<v Speaker 2>That's right, John Thompson and Alan Iverson made a lot

0:03:39.240 --> 0:03:41.560
<v Speaker 2>of fans in the nineties. I got this when I

0:03:41.680 --> 0:03:43.920
<v Speaker 2>was in eighth grade and somehow it still fits me.

0:03:43.960 --> 0:03:45.560
<v Speaker 1>That's just how we wore things back in the day.

0:03:45.600 --> 0:03:48.440
<v Speaker 2>But uh yeah, that's sad to see another loss in

0:03:48.480 --> 0:03:52.000
<v Speaker 2>the basketball family. The guy was a legend in the

0:03:52.040 --> 0:03:55.080
<v Speaker 2>college game, a legend off the court, and honestly, it's

0:03:55.120 --> 0:03:57.280
<v Speaker 2>not often you see a lot of coaches who are

0:03:57.280 --> 0:04:00.200
<v Speaker 2>looking their big men eye to eye, so stand out

0:04:00.200 --> 0:04:00.960
<v Speaker 2>in that way as well.

0:04:01.120 --> 0:04:03.480
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, Big John, for sure, our condolences to the entire

0:04:03.920 --> 0:04:06.839
<v Speaker 4>Thompson family. Twenty twenty continues to be a little rough,

0:04:07.080 --> 0:04:10.280
<v Speaker 4>but we have some fun games to break down, except

0:04:10.320 --> 0:04:12.200
<v Speaker 4>for that Raptors one. Maybe we'll just skip over that

0:04:12.240 --> 0:04:14.480
<v Speaker 4>one today. I'm not sure we'll get to that later.

0:04:14.800 --> 0:04:19.520
<v Speaker 4>Let's start though, with Jamal Murray out dueling Donovan Mitchell,

0:04:19.839 --> 0:04:23.400
<v Speaker 4>setting up the first game seven from the bubble.

0:04:23.400 --> 0:04:24.640
<v Speaker 1>Take away Saza, we.

0:04:24.760 --> 0:04:29.599
<v Speaker 2>Got to Gaby good seven kid seven.

0:04:32.920 --> 0:04:35.679
<v Speaker 4>Yes, nothing easy, Well maybe it is easy for Jamal

0:04:35.720 --> 0:04:38.120
<v Speaker 4>Murray task. This is crazy what this kid is doing

0:04:38.200 --> 0:04:40.320
<v Speaker 4>right now, and Mitchell for that matter. So here we go.

0:04:40.480 --> 0:04:43.640
<v Speaker 4>We said it right from the beginning, this series is

0:04:43.680 --> 0:04:45.840
<v Speaker 4>going seven. You can lock that in. We got there

0:04:45.880 --> 0:04:48.279
<v Speaker 4>a weird way. But what you think of this game

0:04:48.320 --> 0:04:49.520
<v Speaker 4>and Murray's performance and so.

0:04:49.480 --> 0:04:52.080
<v Speaker 5>On, task Well, I didn't think it was going seven.

0:04:52.160 --> 0:04:54.000
<v Speaker 5>I didn't think the Jazz could score enough. I thought

0:04:54.000 --> 0:04:57.280
<v Speaker 5>the Nuggets were winning this thing in five games. And

0:04:57.360 --> 0:04:59.479
<v Speaker 5>it's weird that it's sort of come all the way

0:04:59.480 --> 0:05:02.599
<v Speaker 5>around that the Utah Jazz had their offense going and

0:05:02.640 --> 0:05:06.599
<v Speaker 5>now Jamal Murray fifty forty two and fifty in his

0:05:06.720 --> 0:05:11.760
<v Speaker 5>last three games. That's unheard of in playoff basketball. And

0:05:11.800 --> 0:05:13.160
<v Speaker 5>you said it might be a little too easy for

0:05:13.279 --> 0:05:16.520
<v Speaker 5>Jamal Murray. I think that's a bit of the problem here,

0:05:16.640 --> 0:05:18.440
<v Speaker 5>is that it is a little bit too easy, and

0:05:18.560 --> 0:05:21.640
<v Speaker 5>that I think one of the shortcomings of Jazz head

0:05:21.640 --> 0:05:24.080
<v Speaker 5>coach Quinn Snyder is that he plays a lot of

0:05:24.080 --> 0:05:27.720
<v Speaker 5>one on one ball. And you saw last year Superstars

0:05:27.720 --> 0:05:30.000
<v Speaker 5>in the playoffs, James Harden up against him, and he

0:05:30.040 --> 0:05:33.160
<v Speaker 5>was playing behind James Harden. He wasn't really doubling him

0:05:33.200 --> 0:05:34.880
<v Speaker 5>to get it out of his hands. He was trying

0:05:34.920 --> 0:05:37.159
<v Speaker 5>a bunch of that kind of thing. But Jamal Murray,

0:05:37.160 --> 0:05:39.120
<v Speaker 5>I think you got a double pretty much from the

0:05:39.160 --> 0:05:41.839
<v Speaker 5>get go. This wasn't a thirty nine points in the

0:05:41.880 --> 0:05:43.919
<v Speaker 5>second half after a slow first half. This was a

0:05:43.920 --> 0:05:46.240
<v Speaker 5>pretty equal first half to second half performance. So I

0:05:46.320 --> 0:05:49.800
<v Speaker 5>think it would be smarter to let Tory Craig, Paul

0:05:49.839 --> 0:05:53.240
<v Speaker 5>millsap and who's the third start, and Jeremy Grant, Let's

0:05:53.240 --> 0:05:55.000
<v Speaker 5>see if he can do that again. Let those three

0:05:55.000 --> 0:05:59.200
<v Speaker 5>guys while you cover Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic and

0:05:59.200 --> 0:06:01.440
<v Speaker 5>get the ball out of Jamal Murray's hens. Isn't that

0:06:01.520 --> 0:06:05.520
<v Speaker 5>an option? And in in a way, your your offense

0:06:05.600 --> 0:06:07.040
<v Speaker 5>is going to score enough. I think if you're the

0:06:07.160 --> 0:06:09.880
<v Speaker 5>Utah Jess because Denver doesn't usually play great defense, and

0:06:09.920 --> 0:06:11.839
<v Speaker 5>you still have Donovan Mitchell, so even if you get

0:06:11.839 --> 0:06:15.159
<v Speaker 5>down a little bit, if things don't work out, you

0:06:15.160 --> 0:06:16.400
<v Speaker 5>can still get back in the game. But I think

0:06:16.440 --> 0:06:19.080
<v Speaker 5>you just got to show him more because he is

0:06:19.960 --> 0:06:24.000
<v Speaker 5>scorching walking into jumpers. He is absolutely feeling it a

0:06:24.120 --> 0:06:27.800
<v Speaker 5>front to back performance. The postgame interview, which was incredibly moving,

0:06:27.839 --> 0:06:32.239
<v Speaker 5>shows how the players are and totally totally behind this movement,

0:06:32.360 --> 0:06:34.880
<v Speaker 5>how much he has been moved, even as a Canadian

0:06:34.960 --> 0:06:39.600
<v Speaker 5>kid growing up watching probably stars like Iverson in Georgetown,

0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:42.479
<v Speaker 5>even Georgetown affecting me in Canada with Jamal Murray is

0:06:42.520 --> 0:06:45.840
<v Speaker 5>a good Canadian boy. He realizes there's these these are

0:06:45.880 --> 0:06:47.880
<v Speaker 5>the racial device that going on in both countries. But

0:06:48.040 --> 0:06:51.279
<v Speaker 5>he is just locked in. Unlock him, get him out

0:06:51.279 --> 0:06:53.760
<v Speaker 5>of his his flow right now. You got to get

0:06:53.839 --> 0:06:55.680
<v Speaker 5>him out of his flow. If you're Quinn Snyder, yeah.

0:06:55.560 --> 0:06:58.440
<v Speaker 4>I saw I think it was Pablo Torre tweet. Jamal

0:06:58.520 --> 0:07:01.240
<v Speaker 4>Murray is playing basketball right now like he's owned a

0:07:01.360 --> 0:07:04.000
<v Speaker 4>video game for a month before everyone else and is

0:07:04.040 --> 0:07:07.200
<v Speaker 4>now just destroying people with combos they don't even know

0:07:07.400 --> 0:07:10.440
<v Speaker 4>how to do yet. That's a great way to put it,

0:07:10.880 --> 0:07:14.320
<v Speaker 4>because yeah, it's it's just one on one. He's like,

0:07:14.440 --> 0:07:17.760
<v Speaker 4>I'll cook, I'll get my step back. Three, I've got

0:07:17.760 --> 0:07:20.760
<v Speaker 4>to handle the taken to the rim. And it's pretty special. Yeah,

0:07:20.800 --> 0:07:24.200
<v Speaker 4>the fifty, the forty two, the fifty. But on high

0:07:24.280 --> 0:07:27.160
<v Speaker 4>efficiency too, Lee, this is the wild part. This is

0:07:27.200 --> 0:07:29.760
<v Speaker 4>not fifty shots. These are you know, these are like,

0:07:30.040 --> 0:07:32.800
<v Speaker 4>you know, twenty five to thirty shots, high high efficiency

0:07:33.040 --> 0:07:34.800
<v Speaker 4>and with all the three pointers, he's just in a

0:07:34.880 --> 0:07:35.440
<v Speaker 4>zone right now.

0:07:35.640 --> 0:07:37.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and talking about taking the ball out of his hands.

0:07:37.520 --> 0:07:41.920
<v Speaker 3>Obviously that would be a smart strategy from the Utah Jazz,

0:07:42.000 --> 0:07:44.480
<v Speaker 3>but the way that he moves around. He often just

0:07:44.480 --> 0:07:45.880
<v Speaker 3>sort of gives up the ball, then gets it back

0:07:45.880 --> 0:07:47.920
<v Speaker 3>straight away and then goes to his shot. So it's

0:07:47.920 --> 0:07:50.600
<v Speaker 3>not quite as easily done as it is said because

0:07:50.600 --> 0:07:52.840
<v Speaker 3>he's so active on that end. But he is just

0:07:52.920 --> 0:07:56.600
<v Speaker 3>feeling so outrageously confident right now. I tweeted one of

0:07:56.640 --> 0:07:58.920
<v Speaker 3>his threes he hit last night. There was a three

0:07:58.960 --> 0:08:01.800
<v Speaker 3>on one for the nugget and he, you know, in

0:08:01.840 --> 0:08:03.760
<v Speaker 3>that sense, usually coaches want you to go in and

0:08:03.800 --> 0:08:05.040
<v Speaker 3>just sort of pass the ball around and get the

0:08:05.080 --> 0:08:07.440
<v Speaker 3>easy shot. He just pulled up and knocked down the

0:08:07.480 --> 0:08:10.240
<v Speaker 3>three without even hesitating at all. And that just shows

0:08:10.240 --> 0:08:12.600
<v Speaker 3>how confident he is right now, because if he misses that,

0:08:12.640 --> 0:08:14.440
<v Speaker 3>I mean, they probably still going to win the game.

0:08:14.640 --> 0:08:16.440
<v Speaker 3>But you can understand if the coach was like, no,

0:08:16.520 --> 0:08:18.680
<v Speaker 3>you've got to, you know, make the basket, but get

0:08:18.680 --> 0:08:21.600
<v Speaker 3>the sure thing. But instead he just hits that and

0:08:21.680 --> 0:08:24.000
<v Speaker 3>it's just so incredibly fun to watch. But then on

0:08:24.080 --> 0:08:26.360
<v Speaker 3>the other end, we're getting the same thing virtually from

0:08:26.360 --> 0:08:29.320
<v Speaker 3>Donovan Mitchell, which is just incredible. He hit nine threes

0:08:29.320 --> 0:08:31.520
<v Speaker 3>as well yesterday and he was just as good. It's

0:08:31.560 --> 0:08:33.959
<v Speaker 3>just that the Nuggets got the win but also I

0:08:34.000 --> 0:08:37.360
<v Speaker 3>think what's really important here is obviously Matt Murray's fantastic,

0:08:37.400 --> 0:08:40.360
<v Speaker 3>but the Nuggets are just competing with an effort and

0:08:40.400 --> 0:08:42.680
<v Speaker 3>an energy they didn't have there for a couple of games.

0:08:42.800 --> 0:08:45.360
<v Speaker 3>Jokich had twenty two points, but he's trying harder. And

0:08:45.480 --> 0:08:47.439
<v Speaker 3>Jeremy Grant, I think he's been very, very good for

0:08:47.480 --> 0:08:50.480
<v Speaker 3>the Nuggets as well. So that sort of competitiveness that

0:08:50.640 --> 0:08:52.800
<v Speaker 3>just went missing for a couple of games is back,

0:08:53.160 --> 0:08:55.200
<v Speaker 3>and now Denver's got themselves in a position where they

0:08:55.240 --> 0:08:56.760
<v Speaker 3>can win this series.

0:08:56.960 --> 0:08:59.160
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, the Nuggets are trying to become the twelfth team

0:08:59.240 --> 0:09:01.760
<v Speaker 4>to rally from three to one deficit to win the series.

0:09:01.800 --> 0:09:04.040
<v Speaker 4>I think that's almost being overlooked, right because of what

0:09:04.240 --> 0:09:06.520
<v Speaker 4>just Murray's doing and just being a weird series, as.

0:09:06.480 --> 0:09:07.640
<v Speaker 1>It is a very entertaining series.

0:09:07.720 --> 0:09:10.360
<v Speaker 4>But you're rightly, I mean, Murray is the headline, and

0:09:10.440 --> 0:09:12.880
<v Speaker 4>deservedly so, both what he did on the court and

0:09:12.960 --> 0:09:15.839
<v Speaker 4>talking in the postgame interview. But I thought plumb lead

0:09:15.840 --> 0:09:19.480
<v Speaker 4>the plumb dog millionaire grab and you know tichange the game. Yeah,

0:09:19.520 --> 0:09:22.320
<v Speaker 4>he changed it a bit, Tory Craig making hustle plays.

0:09:22.320 --> 0:09:25.040
<v Speaker 4>You said, Jeremy Grant, same thing, but then knocking down

0:09:25.080 --> 0:09:28.200
<v Speaker 4>four threes. Yeah, you're right. Task if you're the Jazz,

0:09:28.240 --> 0:09:30.000
<v Speaker 4>I think you say, hey, Jeremy Grant, can you do

0:09:30.040 --> 0:09:32.280
<v Speaker 4>that again in a game seven? Anybody but Jamal Murray

0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:35.080
<v Speaker 4>and then Gary Harris first action of the series. Now, look,

0:09:35.080 --> 0:09:36.960
<v Speaker 4>he didn't do a ton comes back from the right

0:09:37.000 --> 0:09:40.320
<v Speaker 4>hit muscle strain, but four points minutes out there obviously

0:09:40.400 --> 0:09:42.679
<v Speaker 4>a capable defender, and so that helped the Nuggets out.

0:09:42.679 --> 0:09:44.400
<v Speaker 5>I thought he slowed down to Jordan Clarkson a bit.

0:09:44.440 --> 0:09:46.559
<v Speaker 5>That's his assignment. Come off the bench and just lock

0:09:46.600 --> 0:09:49.200
<v Speaker 5>down Jordan Clarkson, who's been really really big for them.

0:09:49.240 --> 0:09:49.480
<v Speaker 1>Matt.

0:09:49.559 --> 0:09:51.960
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, the defense, which is sort of non existent at

0:09:51.960 --> 0:09:54.640
<v Speaker 5>the beginning of the series has come around. Michael Malone

0:09:54.640 --> 0:09:58.600
<v Speaker 5>has found a lineup, starting Monte Morris there and dropping

0:09:58.600 --> 0:10:01.360
<v Speaker 5>Michael Porter to the bench. Now getting Gary Harris back

0:10:01.520 --> 0:10:04.480
<v Speaker 5>playing plumbe some minutes, they've got some defense.

0:10:05.120 --> 0:10:07.920
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, So so trade do you buy this? Can you

0:10:08.120 --> 0:10:11.160
<v Speaker 4>just run a second guy at Jamal Murray or like

0:10:11.280 --> 0:10:13.800
<v Speaker 4>it cannot even work right now with him because Lee's right,

0:10:13.840 --> 0:10:15.480
<v Speaker 4>I mean, they do a lot of the you know,

0:10:15.559 --> 0:10:18.400
<v Speaker 4>dribble handoff actually with Joki jump top and it's like

0:10:18.440 --> 0:10:20.200
<v Speaker 4>sort of just keep giving it back to him until

0:10:20.200 --> 0:10:22.640
<v Speaker 4>he sort of gets into his little groove finds enough space.

0:10:22.679 --> 0:10:24.520
<v Speaker 4>I mean that one step back three he had on

0:10:24.600 --> 0:10:27.080
<v Speaker 4>go bear in the car. Yeah, I mean that one

0:10:27.200 --> 0:10:29.080
<v Speaker 4>was just mind boggling too. You're right about the fast

0:10:29.080 --> 0:10:31.280
<v Speaker 4>break one. But what do you think, Tray. It doesn't matter.

0:10:31.320 --> 0:10:33.679
<v Speaker 4>It honestly doesn't matter. We've seen this before. This is

0:10:33.720 --> 0:10:36.439
<v Speaker 4>Steph Curry. He's playing exactly like Steph Curry. And when

0:10:36.440 --> 0:10:38.480
<v Speaker 4>Steph Curry gets doubled, he gives the ball up, he

0:10:38.559 --> 0:10:41.120
<v Speaker 4>runs around and somehow he gets it and somehow he's

0:10:41.160 --> 0:10:43.560
<v Speaker 4>open for a three. I'm assuming that Murray will do

0:10:43.600 --> 0:10:45.880
<v Speaker 4>the same, And then I'm not really surprised that we're

0:10:45.880 --> 0:10:48.480
<v Speaker 4>seeing the Nuggets give this kind of effort because this

0:10:48.559 --> 0:10:49.560
<v Speaker 4>is Jamal Murray's team.

0:10:49.600 --> 0:10:51.520
<v Speaker 2>Now. I'm old enough to remember when this was Nikally

0:10:51.559 --> 0:10:53.920
<v Speaker 2>Jokich's team, when he was their best player, but he's

0:10:53.960 --> 0:10:56.280
<v Speaker 2>not right now. And when Jamal Murray is your best player,

0:10:56.520 --> 0:10:58.520
<v Speaker 2>he brings a little bit more intensity, he brings a

0:10:58.559 --> 0:11:00.120
<v Speaker 2>little bit more fire, and I think you're gonna to

0:11:00.200 --> 0:11:03.679
<v Speaker 2>be at least getting the effort every single night. Whereas

0:11:03.760 --> 0:11:06.480
<v Speaker 2>with Jokic, it's not a guarantee. You know, Murray can

0:11:06.520 --> 0:11:08.800
<v Speaker 2>have a bad shooting night. He hasn't in three games,

0:11:08.800 --> 0:11:10.480
<v Speaker 2>but he can have a bad shooting night. But at

0:11:10.520 --> 0:11:12.280
<v Speaker 2>least he's still playing hard out there. At least you

0:11:12.320 --> 0:11:14.480
<v Speaker 2>know you're getting the full effort from him, and I

0:11:14.480 --> 0:11:16.160
<v Speaker 2>think it's made all the difference. This is the same

0:11:16.200 --> 0:11:19.199
<v Speaker 2>thing that happened in the playoffs last year, right, Murray

0:11:19.200 --> 0:11:20.640
<v Speaker 2>put the team on his back to get a game

0:11:20.679 --> 0:11:23.760
<v Speaker 2>seven win yep, in the first round. He saved game

0:11:23.800 --> 0:11:26.000
<v Speaker 2>one in this series as well. It's crazy to think

0:11:26.000 --> 0:11:28.839
<v Speaker 2>that this could have very easily been a Utah Jazz sweep,

0:11:28.840 --> 0:11:30.319
<v Speaker 2>and now we're talking about them blowing a three to

0:11:30.400 --> 0:11:34.120
<v Speaker 2>one lead. Murray last night was incredible. When he's hitting

0:11:34.120 --> 0:11:36.640
<v Speaker 2>the step back, when he's made the first couple of threes,

0:11:36.679 --> 0:11:38.400
<v Speaker 2>you think he can make anything he throws up. It's

0:11:38.480 --> 0:11:42.959
<v Speaker 2>exactly like a Canadian Steph Curry. The game is the

0:11:43.000 --> 0:11:44.960
<v Speaker 2>same too, right, Like he's in and out, he's like

0:11:45.040 --> 0:11:47.440
<v Speaker 2>pumping fakes, he's showing his hands and then suddenly it's

0:11:47.480 --> 0:11:48.480
<v Speaker 2>a little scoop at the rim.

0:11:48.760 --> 0:11:51.000
<v Speaker 4>He's in complete control right now. Yeah, because it's not

0:11:51.080 --> 0:11:53.720
<v Speaker 4>just a shot. He has a pretty incredible handle, like

0:11:53.760 --> 0:11:55.960
<v Speaker 4>Steph Curry, right, I mean he's really and it's pretty high.

0:11:56.160 --> 0:11:58.400
<v Speaker 4>It's pretty high for a guard, right, Like you want

0:11:58.400 --> 0:11:59.720
<v Speaker 4>to keep it at the waist, they tell you, but

0:11:59.760 --> 0:12:02.000
<v Speaker 4>not Hurry and Murray. They're keeping up with their shoulders

0:12:02.040 --> 0:12:03.960
<v Speaker 4>and maybe that helps. Maybe it's a little.

0:12:03.720 --> 0:12:05.600
<v Speaker 2>Too enticing for people to think, Ooh, I can get

0:12:05.640 --> 0:12:06.199
<v Speaker 2>a hand on that.

0:12:06.360 --> 0:12:07.960
<v Speaker 1>You can't. You can get a three point in your

0:12:08.000 --> 0:12:08.440
<v Speaker 1>face though.

0:12:08.640 --> 0:12:11.200
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I mean I saw the tweets going around last night,

0:12:11.240 --> 0:12:13.320
<v Speaker 4>so I wanted to ask you, guys, you know what

0:12:13.520 --> 0:12:15.880
<v Speaker 4>is the craziest first round series of recent memory. Now,

0:12:15.920 --> 0:12:17.600
<v Speaker 4>the stakes are not that high, this is a first

0:12:17.679 --> 0:12:19.880
<v Speaker 4>round series, but what Mitchell and Murray are doing night

0:12:19.920 --> 0:12:22.040
<v Speaker 4>in and night out here this show We're getting this

0:12:22.400 --> 0:12:23.400
<v Speaker 4>what feels like at.

0:12:23.240 --> 0:12:26.480
<v Speaker 1>Times like one on one battle. Is there another series?

0:12:26.520 --> 0:12:28.280
<v Speaker 4>I know Zach Lowe was throwing out the two thousand

0:12:28.280 --> 0:12:31.400
<v Speaker 4>and nine Bulls Celtics tray, which was a wild, wild series.

0:12:31.400 --> 0:12:33.120
<v Speaker 1>We're talking multiple overtimes.

0:12:33.440 --> 0:12:35.920
<v Speaker 2>Ray Allen had a fifty one point game, Derek Rose

0:12:35.960 --> 0:12:38.360
<v Speaker 2>put up a thirty six. At one point, the total

0:12:38.400 --> 0:12:39.920
<v Speaker 2>points weren't quite the same. I think there was a

0:12:39.960 --> 0:12:42.400
<v Speaker 2>Ben Gordon forty point game, but the shot making was

0:12:42.520 --> 0:12:46.000
<v Speaker 2>very similar, and obviously I think Zach mentioned that there

0:12:46.040 --> 0:12:48.439
<v Speaker 2>were like multiple moments in that where it's coming.

0:12:48.280 --> 0:12:49.240
<v Speaker 1>Down to the last second.

0:12:49.400 --> 0:12:51.400
<v Speaker 2>We haven't really had that as much in this series

0:12:51.559 --> 0:12:52.720
<v Speaker 2>hopefully game seven though.

0:12:52.880 --> 0:12:55.160
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, right, is there any other series Lee that come

0:12:55.200 --> 0:12:58.240
<v Speaker 4>to mind, like just again crazy first round series?

0:12:58.360 --> 0:13:00.600
<v Speaker 3>I think Spurs clip is from twenty five fifteen, the

0:13:00.600 --> 0:13:03.319
<v Speaker 3>one where Chris Paul hits the runner off the banker

0:13:03.360 --> 0:13:05.000
<v Speaker 3>to win it in game seven. I think that was

0:13:05.040 --> 0:13:07.800
<v Speaker 3>a pretty close, close series because if I remember correctly,

0:13:08.320 --> 0:13:10.880
<v Speaker 3>the Clippers were down two to one in that series

0:13:10.880 --> 0:13:13.360
<v Speaker 3>and Game four was in San Antonio, and I was like,

0:13:13.440 --> 0:13:14.920
<v Speaker 3>this is like the Spurs are going to win this

0:13:15.000 --> 0:13:17.480
<v Speaker 3>series now. But then the Clippers came back, and I

0:13:17.480 --> 0:13:20.920
<v Speaker 3>think Chris Paul even had the hamstring injury which cost

0:13:20.960 --> 0:13:22.720
<v Speaker 3>him the first couple of games of the next round,

0:13:22.720 --> 0:13:24.840
<v Speaker 3>but he still went out and just got that victory

0:13:24.840 --> 0:13:28.120
<v Speaker 3>over of San Antonio in game seven. So that's the

0:13:28.160 --> 0:13:30.680
<v Speaker 3>only sort of seven game series other than the Bull

0:13:30.720 --> 0:13:32.880
<v Speaker 3>Celtics that I can really think of that was that

0:13:33.000 --> 0:13:35.040
<v Speaker 3>was pretty tight the whole way anyway.

0:13:35.080 --> 0:13:37.080
<v Speaker 4>I know, I think it was Hollander making the case

0:13:37.080 --> 0:13:40.200
<v Speaker 4>for a thunder Grizzlies in twenty fourteen, which went to

0:13:40.280 --> 0:13:45.920
<v Speaker 4>overtime multiple multiple games. That Clipper Spurs series is isn't

0:13:45.920 --> 0:13:48.720
<v Speaker 4>that famous in our world? For two reasons? One task

0:13:48.800 --> 0:13:52.079
<v Speaker 4>wasn't that the one where you picked the Clips to

0:13:52.120 --> 0:13:54.600
<v Speaker 4>beat the Spurs and like Doc Rivers like almost used

0:13:54.640 --> 0:13:57.000
<v Speaker 4>it as motivation, well all the other people picking the

0:13:57.040 --> 0:13:57.720
<v Speaker 4>Spurs to win it.

0:13:57.760 --> 0:13:59.600
<v Speaker 1>And then it had like tass Mellists.

0:13:59.480 --> 0:14:03.079
<v Speaker 5>Clippers that yeah, totally totally unlike this series here that

0:14:03.120 --> 0:14:05.760
<v Speaker 5>we're talking about, where I picked the Nuggets in five. Yeah,

0:14:05.800 --> 0:14:07.840
<v Speaker 5>I picked the Clippers in seven to beat the Spurs

0:14:07.880 --> 0:14:11.800
<v Speaker 5>their first playoff series victory, you know, over the Spurs,

0:14:12.000 --> 0:14:13.840
<v Speaker 5>And yeah, he used Doc Rivers put it up on

0:14:13.880 --> 0:14:16.640
<v Speaker 5>the board apparently. I remember Jamie Maggio showing that photo

0:14:16.679 --> 0:14:20.680
<v Speaker 5>of everybody else putting in their picks. Everybody else had

0:14:20.680 --> 0:14:23.000
<v Speaker 5>their individual picks, but we were as a team basically,

0:14:23.080 --> 0:14:25.600
<v Speaker 5>and then mine sort of stood out amongst our four.

0:14:25.680 --> 0:14:28.200
<v Speaker 1>Shout out to whoever took that screenshot at the start.

0:14:28.240 --> 0:14:31.280
<v Speaker 5>Exactly that piece of paper and thanks for photo shopping that,

0:14:31.280 --> 0:14:33.880
<v Speaker 5>Blake Griffin. I appreciate it. It was definitely Blake griff

0:14:33.920 --> 0:14:34.240
<v Speaker 5>It didn't.

0:14:34.240 --> 0:14:36.720
<v Speaker 3>Weren't a few people upset that they weren't included that

0:14:36.800 --> 0:14:38.600
<v Speaker 3>they picked the Clippers as well, that it was like

0:14:38.680 --> 0:14:42.000
<v Speaker 3>selective that doc only one person out. Now there's like, oh,

0:14:42.040 --> 0:14:44.400
<v Speaker 3>I picked the Clippers too, And I was like, but

0:14:44.840 --> 0:14:45.760
<v Speaker 3>I remember seeing a fee.

0:14:46.160 --> 0:14:47.920
<v Speaker 5>As far as I can tell, there was like fifty

0:14:47.920 --> 0:14:48.520
<v Speaker 5>people on that.

0:14:48.600 --> 0:14:50.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, there were a lot of Spurs picks.

0:14:50.200 --> 0:14:51.440
<v Speaker 5>Everybody taken the Spurs.

0:14:51.640 --> 0:14:51.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:14:51.800 --> 0:14:54.280
<v Speaker 5>I don't remember that John Hollandre Thunder series. I probably should,

0:14:54.320 --> 0:14:56.440
<v Speaker 5>but I think the Grizzlies have played a bunch of series,

0:14:56.480 --> 0:14:59.960
<v Speaker 5>but unfortunately they don't get the love only from John hollingd.

0:15:00.120 --> 0:15:02.200
<v Speaker 5>They're just one of those teams that they play a

0:15:02.240 --> 0:15:06.080
<v Speaker 5>lot of long series. But I just remember, I mean,

0:15:06.120 --> 0:15:08.520
<v Speaker 5>the most consequential first round series that always comes to

0:15:08.560 --> 0:15:10.840
<v Speaker 5>mind is that we believe Warriors beating the MAVs, the

0:15:10.840 --> 0:15:13.360
<v Speaker 5>sixty seven win MAVs. But you know that wasn't exciting

0:15:13.480 --> 0:15:18.760
<v Speaker 5>that the Bulls Celtics won. That was not really consequential

0:15:18.800 --> 0:15:21.400
<v Speaker 5>because the Celtics went on to win that series and

0:15:21.400 --> 0:15:24.120
<v Speaker 5>then lose the next round. But it was like Liam

0:15:24.200 --> 0:15:27.640
<v Speaker 5>Neeson movie, like nobody really cares what happens, but you're

0:15:27.800 --> 0:15:30.960
<v Speaker 5>in thralled by the whole thing, right, Like that was

0:15:31.160 --> 0:15:33.640
<v Speaker 5>how many? There's like seven overtimes in that series?

0:15:34.600 --> 0:15:36.480
<v Speaker 1>Triple ot game six? That's awesome?

0:15:36.680 --> 0:15:38.720
<v Speaker 3>Was that Ray Allen game? The fifty one? Was that

0:15:38.720 --> 0:15:40.760
<v Speaker 3>the triple overtime? Was that that game?

0:15:40.880 --> 0:15:42.280
<v Speaker 5>Game? It was a game sick?

0:15:42.360 --> 0:15:45.200
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that's yeah, yeah, Like that's just crazy to think

0:15:45.240 --> 0:15:47.440
<v Speaker 3>that that was a triple overtime game and that fifty

0:15:47.480 --> 0:15:49.480
<v Speaker 3>one was like, wow, Ray Allen had fifty one. Now

0:15:49.520 --> 0:15:52.040
<v Speaker 3>we're getting guys just putting up fifty one, right, you know,

0:15:52.320 --> 0:15:52.640
<v Speaker 3>I mean.

0:15:52.800 --> 0:15:55.520
<v Speaker 4>The Murray Mitchell what they're doing right now. It is

0:15:55.560 --> 0:15:57.520
<v Speaker 4>it wasn't a first round series, but tass, I mean

0:15:57.520 --> 0:15:59.720
<v Speaker 4>you can speak to this too. It reminds you a

0:15:59.720 --> 0:16:02.520
<v Speaker 4>little bit of Vince Carter versus Allen Iverson in the

0:16:02.560 --> 0:16:05.200
<v Speaker 4>second round back in two thousand and one in that

0:16:05.320 --> 0:16:08.080
<v Speaker 4>seven game series, just in terms of the pure scoring

0:16:08.280 --> 0:16:10.560
<v Speaker 4>and doing it efficiently. Those guys put up some monster

0:16:10.640 --> 0:16:12.600
<v Speaker 4>numbers in that one. It just feels like this I

0:16:12.600 --> 0:16:14.920
<v Speaker 4>tweeted last night, It feels like this one's on steroids

0:16:14.960 --> 0:16:17.480
<v Speaker 4>from that with these young guys in Murray and Mitchell.

0:16:17.520 --> 0:16:19.720
<v Speaker 4>The way they're getting their buckets.

0:16:19.520 --> 0:16:22.560
<v Speaker 5>No doubt. Yeah, Iverson had a couple fifties, Vince had

0:16:22.560 --> 0:16:24.960
<v Speaker 5>a couple of fifties. And if it's anything like that series,

0:16:25.320 --> 0:16:27.120
<v Speaker 5>we're going to get a bit of a dudley. In

0:16:27.200 --> 0:16:29.440
<v Speaker 5>the game seven, a bit of it died right the

0:16:29.600 --> 0:16:32.240
<v Speaker 5>game high in that game was twenty three points from

0:16:32.520 --> 0:16:37.240
<v Speaker 5>Antonio Davis. Of all people, Vince and Iverson cooled off. Yeah,

0:16:37.400 --> 0:16:41.000
<v Speaker 5>so I think I think you got to get the

0:16:41.000 --> 0:16:43.320
<v Speaker 5>ball out of Jamals. I understand what you guys are saying,

0:16:43.320 --> 0:16:46.280
<v Speaker 5>but sometimes Jamal Murray would lose the ball, like that

0:16:46.320 --> 0:16:48.920
<v Speaker 5>one where he went behind the back and he lost

0:16:48.960 --> 0:16:50.440
<v Speaker 5>it and there was nobody around to touch it. He

0:16:50.480 --> 0:16:52.120
<v Speaker 5>picked it up and then he did a nice little

0:16:52.120 --> 0:16:54.800
<v Speaker 5>scoop off the glass and he felt so good. I mean,

0:16:55.440 --> 0:16:58.040
<v Speaker 5>ies on the guy who's scoring fifty points on the

0:16:58.080 --> 0:17:02.720
<v Speaker 5>other team. It's I just don't I just don't believe that.

0:17:02.840 --> 0:17:05.720
<v Speaker 5>Jeremy Grant and Paul Millsap, he just doesn't have it

0:17:05.800 --> 0:17:09.919
<v Speaker 5>right now. Uh and and even Monte Morris. You know,

0:17:09.960 --> 0:17:12.760
<v Speaker 5>I throw Tory Craig in there, but like they just

0:17:12.760 --> 0:17:14.679
<v Speaker 5>just try it. I think I think you gotta try

0:17:14.720 --> 0:17:16.600
<v Speaker 5>it again. Your your offense with Don Mitchell is good

0:17:16.640 --> 0:17:18.720
<v Speaker 5>enough to bring you back. But yeah, this is is

0:17:18.760 --> 0:17:20.520
<v Speaker 5>a lot like Iverson and Vince.

0:17:20.640 --> 0:17:23.199
<v Speaker 4>It really is a final little part back to that

0:17:23.280 --> 0:17:24.720
<v Speaker 4>Clipper Spurs series you're talking about.

0:17:24.760 --> 0:17:26.640
<v Speaker 1>Was that fifteen you said, Lee? I think so, yeah, yeah,

0:17:26.680 --> 0:17:27.320
<v Speaker 1>forty fifteen.

0:17:28.400 --> 0:17:31.280
<v Speaker 4>This is for Tray and Task. Specifically, where were we

0:17:31.440 --> 0:17:34.600
<v Speaker 4>when we watched Chris Paul hit the game winner versus

0:17:34.640 --> 0:17:37.600
<v Speaker 4>the Spurs. What restaurant were we? I believe altogether, I

0:17:37.640 --> 0:17:38.200
<v Speaker 4>know some of.

0:17:38.119 --> 0:17:38.720
<v Speaker 1>You are with me.

0:17:40.320 --> 0:17:42.400
<v Speaker 5>It's a two two word restaurant.

0:17:42.640 --> 0:17:43.680
<v Speaker 1>Three sort of three.

0:17:43.720 --> 0:17:44.119
<v Speaker 5>It's a the.

0:17:44.520 --> 0:17:45.600
<v Speaker 1>Something dollar cafe.

0:17:45.880 --> 0:17:49.920
<v Speaker 4>No, it's a number first something something something like a

0:17:50.040 --> 0:17:51.720
<v Speaker 4>number and then an animal.

0:17:52.880 --> 0:18:01.400
<v Speaker 2>Number that wood.

0:17:59.200 --> 0:17:59.920
<v Speaker 1>Nice pull man.

0:18:00.680 --> 0:18:03.320
<v Speaker 4>We were, I think, I don't mean Tag was, but

0:18:03.400 --> 0:18:05.439
<v Speaker 4>I'm pretty sure you both were. And we watched it

0:18:05.480 --> 0:18:07.239
<v Speaker 4>like in the little bar setting because we're like we

0:18:07.240 --> 0:18:08.840
<v Speaker 4>were out for brunch. I think it was like I

0:18:08.880 --> 0:18:09.800
<v Speaker 4>think Sunday.

0:18:09.840 --> 0:18:11.920
<v Speaker 3>I don't know it was a Sunday because I'm actually

0:18:12.000 --> 0:18:13.800
<v Speaker 3>I was actually listening to it on the radio. I

0:18:13.840 --> 0:18:16.520
<v Speaker 3>was driving somewhere, I remember because I had that, Yeah,

0:18:16.520 --> 0:18:19.480
<v Speaker 3>I had the radio the NBA app in my side

0:18:19.560 --> 0:18:21.520
<v Speaker 3>console like on where I was driving and I was like,

0:18:21.600 --> 0:18:24.520
<v Speaker 3>oh my god, what's going on here? And watch it

0:18:24.600 --> 0:18:25.159
<v Speaker 3>fired up?

0:18:25.400 --> 0:18:25.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:18:25.720 --> 0:18:28.160
<v Speaker 4>I just remember we were we had friends, I think

0:18:28.200 --> 0:18:30.360
<v Speaker 4>maybe in town or something, and that's why we were

0:18:30.440 --> 0:18:32.119
<v Speaker 4>not watching the game, and we were all out for

0:18:32.160 --> 0:18:34.280
<v Speaker 4>brunch and then we were gonna, of course watch it later.

0:18:34.320 --> 0:18:36.800
<v Speaker 4>But it was on in the bar part of this

0:18:36.920 --> 0:18:38.080
<v Speaker 4>nice restaurant and we.

0:18:38.000 --> 0:18:40.040
<v Speaker 1>Like had I remember us. We all got up and

0:18:40.080 --> 0:18:41.520
<v Speaker 1>watched like the final a couple of minutes.

0:18:41.720 --> 0:18:44.959
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the brunch is delicious, but their game watching setup

0:18:45.040 --> 0:18:47.280
<v Speaker 2>is not ideal. You're there for the food. But yeah,

0:18:47.359 --> 0:18:49.000
<v Speaker 2>in a pinch, you can you can see Chris Paul

0:18:49.080 --> 0:18:49.760
<v Speaker 2>hit a game winner.

0:18:49.880 --> 0:18:50.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:18:50.160 --> 0:18:53.840
<v Speaker 4>It was a tiny TV, if I remember correctly, one

0:18:53.920 --> 0:18:55.280
<v Speaker 4>in stag one tiny TV.

0:18:56.080 --> 0:18:57.720
<v Speaker 1>It was a dinner. There was a dinner.

0:18:57.760 --> 0:19:01.440
<v Speaker 5>Those it wasn't a dinner, okay, okay, Yeah, eight pm

0:19:01.520 --> 0:19:06.680
<v Speaker 5>APM start Basketball Reference so good, so good? Okay, wow, okay,

0:19:06.720 --> 0:19:09.040
<v Speaker 5>the only site that has that start times on there.

0:19:09.240 --> 0:19:10.640
<v Speaker 4>You know what I was doing there, I was doing

0:19:10.680 --> 0:19:14.679
<v Speaker 4>the classic two thousand and one Sixers Raptors. That was

0:19:14.720 --> 0:19:17.159
<v Speaker 4>a day game. That was That was the May two

0:19:17.240 --> 0:19:20.200
<v Speaker 4>four weekend story where the Raptors lost that I was

0:19:20.240 --> 0:19:23.600
<v Speaker 4>at a basement bar. We all stood up to Singo Canada.

0:19:23.640 --> 0:19:26.080
<v Speaker 5>In rural Canada. Yeah, really weird.

0:19:26.920 --> 0:19:29.280
<v Speaker 4>Basketball is the best, Okay, So anything else from this one?

0:19:29.320 --> 0:19:32.240
<v Speaker 4>I mean, look, what do you think? I said, Trey,

0:19:32.280 --> 0:19:34.000
<v Speaker 4>Remember I threw it at you. I said, does Game

0:19:34.080 --> 0:19:37.879
<v Speaker 4>six feel like a must win for the Jazz? You know,

0:19:37.920 --> 0:19:40.479
<v Speaker 4>we were debating that is that silly? Is that stupid?

0:19:40.560 --> 0:19:40.879
<v Speaker 1>Whatever?

0:19:40.960 --> 0:19:42.919
<v Speaker 4>Like what really carries over at zero zero when they

0:19:42.920 --> 0:19:45.119
<v Speaker 4>start Game seven? But what do you think? What's your

0:19:45.119 --> 0:19:47.920
<v Speaker 4>prediction for Game seven? How do you make a prediction

0:19:48.160 --> 0:19:51.080
<v Speaker 4>for this game? Game sevens are like a toss up regardless.

0:19:51.200 --> 0:19:54.399
<v Speaker 4>Both the Nuggets and the Jazz have been such up

0:19:54.400 --> 0:19:56.880
<v Speaker 4>and down teams for the entirety of the year. Anytime

0:19:56.920 --> 0:19:59.680
<v Speaker 4>you feel like they have momentum, it could definitely flip.

0:19:59.720 --> 0:20:01.480
<v Speaker 4>There to be a lot of nerves at the beginning

0:20:01.520 --> 0:20:02.719
<v Speaker 4>of Game s, haven't it feels like?

0:20:02.800 --> 0:20:02.879
<v Speaker 5>So?

0:20:03.400 --> 0:20:03.879
<v Speaker 1>I don't know.

0:20:03.960 --> 0:20:06.800
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I would tend to pick Murray because he's

0:20:06.840 --> 0:20:09.120
<v Speaker 2>been on fire for three straight games, but maybe that's

0:20:09.160 --> 0:20:12.359
<v Speaker 2>the problem that being sad. I was a Nuggets pick

0:20:12.400 --> 0:20:14.840
<v Speaker 2>earlier before the series started, and so of course I'm

0:20:14.880 --> 0:20:16.560
<v Speaker 2>gonna go with the Nuggets in this one.

0:20:16.440 --> 0:20:18.639
<v Speaker 4>Right, you were a Nuggets in seven, just like I was.

0:20:18.720 --> 0:20:20.440
<v Speaker 1>Where did you go with this one? Lee? I can't remember.

0:20:20.520 --> 0:20:22.920
<v Speaker 3>I think I said Nuggets in six? Yeah, we all

0:20:22.920 --> 0:20:25.080
<v Speaker 3>had the Nuggets right right. I'm just going to throw

0:20:25.119 --> 0:20:27.680
<v Speaker 3>this out there too. Whoever loses, do you think their

0:20:27.680 --> 0:20:30.399
<v Speaker 3>coach might be canned as well? Because think about a

0:20:30.480 --> 0:20:32.480
<v Speaker 3>Quinn Snyder if they don't get out of the first

0:20:32.600 --> 0:20:35.360
<v Speaker 3>round when they led three to one against Denver. He's

0:20:35.359 --> 0:20:37.920
<v Speaker 3>been there I think seven seasons. Now, that's a long time.

0:20:37.960 --> 0:20:39.760
<v Speaker 3>And this is a season when they came in, they

0:20:39.800 --> 0:20:43.200
<v Speaker 3>had high expectations. And then if you're Michael Malone, listen,

0:20:44.200 --> 0:20:46.080
<v Speaker 3>the number three seed, you go out to the number

0:20:46.080 --> 0:20:48.320
<v Speaker 3>six seed. You know, like, are you really getting the

0:20:48.320 --> 0:20:49.280
<v Speaker 3>most out of those guys?

0:20:49.359 --> 0:20:49.479
<v Speaker 4>Yo?

0:20:49.600 --> 0:20:52.359
<v Speaker 3>Kitchen and Murray he's been there a while too, So

0:20:52.600 --> 0:20:54.560
<v Speaker 3>I wonder if one of those guys is going to

0:20:54.600 --> 0:20:57.280
<v Speaker 3>get canned. I hope not, but you know it's gonna

0:20:57.280 --> 0:20:59.280
<v Speaker 3>be a it's going to be a disappointing end to

0:20:59.320 --> 0:21:01.760
<v Speaker 3>the season for the team whichever team loses.

0:21:01.520 --> 0:21:04.400
<v Speaker 4>It sure, sure, yeah, they both, especially with the Jazz

0:21:04.440 --> 0:21:06.240
<v Speaker 4>being up three one. I mean, I can't remember a

0:21:06.320 --> 0:21:09.040
<v Speaker 4>series where it looked like a team was so dominant

0:21:09.080 --> 0:21:11.960
<v Speaker 4>for the first half of the series and then sort

0:21:12.000 --> 0:21:14.120
<v Speaker 4>of looked like they're outclass for the second half.

0:21:14.240 --> 0:21:15.160
<v Speaker 1>Mitchell's been good.

0:21:16.359 --> 0:21:17.960
<v Speaker 4>Not a lot of other guys on the Jazz have

0:21:18.040 --> 0:21:20.800
<v Speaker 4>been over the last couple I mean Joe Engle, sorry, Leally,

0:21:20.840 --> 0:21:22.159
<v Speaker 4>he's sort of disappeared here.

0:21:22.000 --> 0:21:25.680
<v Speaker 3>For he has. I mean those first those games when

0:21:25.680 --> 0:21:27.439
<v Speaker 3>they were leinning, he was great for them, you know,

0:21:27.800 --> 0:21:29.719
<v Speaker 3>doing all those things, knocking down shots, being a bit

0:21:29.720 --> 0:21:33.480
<v Speaker 3>of a creator. But yeah, defensively he gets cooked a lot,

0:21:33.640 --> 0:21:35.719
<v Speaker 3>and on the offensive end, he's not really making up

0:21:35.720 --> 0:21:37.960
<v Speaker 3>for it right now. So yeah, they need a lot

0:21:38.000 --> 0:21:40.159
<v Speaker 3>more out of him. And Rudy Gobert's been okay, but

0:21:40.240 --> 0:21:41.920
<v Speaker 3>not quite as good as he was when they were

0:21:42.119 --> 0:21:44.000
<v Speaker 3>when they won those three games where he was just

0:21:44.240 --> 0:21:47.960
<v Speaker 3>feasting on Jokic. They've actually Jokich's defense has been a lot.

0:21:48.000 --> 0:21:50.240
<v Speaker 3>His awareness of go beer sort of rolling to the

0:21:50.240 --> 0:21:51.560
<v Speaker 3>hoop has been improved.

0:21:51.720 --> 0:21:54.960
<v Speaker 4>Yes, he's keeping that big body well some down big

0:21:55.000 --> 0:21:57.119
<v Speaker 4>body a little closer to him, you're right, Yeah. And

0:21:57.119 --> 0:21:59.680
<v Speaker 4>then Gobert, like even last night he missed like a

0:21:59.720 --> 0:22:02.280
<v Speaker 4>pretty It would have been an awesome Lau like that

0:22:02.359 --> 0:22:03.919
<v Speaker 4>one hand jam. But you can see him like he

0:22:04.000 --> 0:22:06.120
<v Speaker 4>dropped his head after it. He was like you could

0:22:06.240 --> 0:22:08.399
<v Speaker 4>tell he was very frustrated how he's been playing to

0:22:08.560 --> 0:22:10.679
<v Speaker 4>But yeah, I guess I'll stick with the Nuggets in

0:22:10.680 --> 0:22:14.320
<v Speaker 4>Game seven. But Tray's right, flip a coin, taskway, what

0:22:14.359 --> 0:22:15.280
<v Speaker 4>do you say you got Denver?

0:22:17.160 --> 0:22:19.400
<v Speaker 5>I'm with training that I have no idea what's gonna happen.

0:22:19.480 --> 0:22:21.679
<v Speaker 5>But yeah, I'll take Denver. I'll take Denver with the

0:22:21.680 --> 0:22:23.120
<v Speaker 5>way things are flowing right now.

0:22:23.359 --> 0:22:26.720
<v Speaker 4>All right, let's keep it going here. Kawhi Leonard's Clippers

0:22:27.240 --> 0:22:31.280
<v Speaker 4>eliminate Luca and the Mavericks in six games, one eleven

0:22:31.359 --> 0:22:35.560
<v Speaker 4>ninety seven victory there on Sunday, Kawhi, oh my goodness,

0:22:35.800 --> 0:22:39.000
<v Speaker 4>dominant again thirty three fourteen, seven asists, five steals, Trey

0:22:39.280 --> 0:22:42.800
<v Speaker 4>big takeaway. Maybe outside of Kawhi just being a machine,

0:22:42.960 --> 0:22:43.399
<v Speaker 4>I mean.

0:22:43.280 --> 0:22:45.480
<v Speaker 2>He's awesome. This guy is killing it right now. Five

0:22:45.520 --> 0:22:49.120
<v Speaker 2>straight games with thirty plus points. It's his best postseason streaking.

0:22:49.240 --> 0:22:51.280
<v Speaker 2>He really won the game for the Clippers in the

0:22:51.280 --> 0:22:53.400
<v Speaker 2>fourth quorder, the Mavericks were able to get it down

0:22:53.440 --> 0:22:56.639
<v Speaker 2>to double digits. Kawhi gets put back in. He scores

0:22:56.680 --> 0:22:59.520
<v Speaker 2>eight straight for the Clips. Then Reggie Jackson hit a

0:22:59.520 --> 0:23:02.160
<v Speaker 2>couple of three. The game was basically a wrapped Kawhi

0:23:02.240 --> 0:23:04.520
<v Speaker 2>had twenty two in the second half on nine of

0:23:04.600 --> 0:23:06.920
<v Speaker 2>ten shooting. Doc said, you can tell he's the guy

0:23:06.960 --> 0:23:09.120
<v Speaker 2>who knows how to close out a series, and that's

0:23:09.160 --> 0:23:10.840
<v Speaker 2>exactly what it looked like. He just put the team

0:23:10.880 --> 0:23:13.400
<v Speaker 2>on his back. He was hitting these little Michael Jordan's

0:23:13.400 --> 0:23:16.240
<v Speaker 2>style flip shots in the lane, driving across, not even

0:23:16.240 --> 0:23:18.280
<v Speaker 2>touching the ball with his left hand, just dumping it

0:23:18.359 --> 0:23:22.359
<v Speaker 2>up on the rim, no problem. He was incredible, and

0:23:22.480 --> 0:23:25.080
<v Speaker 2>you know the control he has and the advantage he

0:23:25.119 --> 0:23:26.679
<v Speaker 2>has to be able to get a mid range jumper

0:23:26.720 --> 0:23:28.560
<v Speaker 2>when that's the thing that every team in the league

0:23:28.880 --> 0:23:29.680
<v Speaker 2>wants to give up.

0:23:29.800 --> 0:23:30.720
<v Speaker 1>It's huge.

0:23:30.800 --> 0:23:32.560
<v Speaker 2>I mean, he can get his shot every single time.

0:23:32.560 --> 0:23:34.080
<v Speaker 2>It's just a matter of is he going to make

0:23:34.080 --> 0:23:36.480
<v Speaker 2>it or miss it? He made most of them last night.

0:23:36.520 --> 0:23:38.800
<v Speaker 2>Dontich again was great thirty eight, nine and nine in

0:23:38.800 --> 0:23:40.560
<v Speaker 2>an elimination game. But the only thing people are going

0:23:40.600 --> 0:23:42.720
<v Speaker 2>to be talking about with this is the future for

0:23:42.760 --> 0:23:45.119
<v Speaker 2>the Mavericks. It looks bright. They need to put some

0:23:45.160 --> 0:23:47.399
<v Speaker 2>more pieces around Luca. They needed to get kristaps heal

0:23:47.400 --> 0:23:50.679
<v Speaker 2>at the end. Of course, another cheap shot from Marcus

0:23:50.720 --> 0:23:53.520
<v Speaker 2>Morris ejected in the first quarter for karate chopping the

0:23:53.600 --> 0:23:54.440
<v Speaker 2>donk right.

0:23:54.240 --> 0:23:56.760
<v Speaker 1>In the neck as Luca drove to the rim for

0:23:56.800 --> 0:23:57.280
<v Speaker 1>a layup.

0:23:57.560 --> 0:24:01.040
<v Speaker 3>Ridiculous suspending suspending for that. Give him a game for sure,

0:24:01.960 --> 0:24:04.159
<v Speaker 3>I absolutely think so. At first, I thought, oh, no,

0:24:04.240 --> 0:24:06.240
<v Speaker 3>that's just a hard playoff out. When you look back

0:24:06.240 --> 0:24:09.200
<v Speaker 3>at it, that swipe sort of down across his neck

0:24:09.280 --> 0:24:12.800
<v Speaker 3>head totally unnecessary, and he's had a couple of little

0:24:12.800 --> 0:24:15.080
<v Speaker 3>incidents in this series on the league. I just give

0:24:15.160 --> 0:24:17.600
<v Speaker 3>him a game minimum for that, and say, you've been

0:24:17.640 --> 0:24:19.760
<v Speaker 3>pushing us for too long, man, and you certainly didn't

0:24:19.760 --> 0:24:21.160
<v Speaker 3>need to do that hard faire as of one thing.

0:24:21.200 --> 0:24:23.000
<v Speaker 3>But just whacking a guy across the head like that

0:24:24.119 --> 0:24:25.840
<v Speaker 3>a bit of a jerk off move. You'll get in

0:24:25.920 --> 0:24:27.520
<v Speaker 3>a game for that, bud, all.

0:24:27.480 --> 0:24:30.600
<v Speaker 4>Right, especially when you take into consideration last week when

0:24:30.800 --> 0:24:33.560
<v Speaker 4>he steps on Lucas ankle, right, he says he didn't

0:24:33.600 --> 0:24:36.440
<v Speaker 4>do it intentionally, of course some people think he did.

0:24:37.119 --> 0:24:38.920
<v Speaker 4>And then now you've got the karate chop. It was

0:24:38.960 --> 0:24:42.639
<v Speaker 4>definitely a karate chop. Yeah, it was a hard playoff

0:24:42.720 --> 0:24:46.280
<v Speaker 4>foul and he rightfully got ejected and the flagrant two

0:24:46.280 --> 0:24:47.720
<v Speaker 4>on that. But what do you think task does he

0:24:47.720 --> 0:24:48.560
<v Speaker 4>get a game for this?

0:24:49.240 --> 0:24:51.679
<v Speaker 5>I think he does. He has earned this reputation now

0:24:51.720 --> 0:24:54.040
<v Speaker 5>throughout the series and throughout the season. As our own

0:24:54.119 --> 0:24:57.800
<v Speaker 5>Trey Kirby tweeted, is Marcus Morris the first guy to

0:24:57.840 --> 0:25:01.240
<v Speaker 5>get suspended in the preseason, regular season, and now postseason

0:25:01.280 --> 0:25:04.080
<v Speaker 5>in the history of the NBA. He's earned it, he

0:25:04.160 --> 0:25:07.000
<v Speaker 5>really has. After the step on the ankle after they

0:25:07.080 --> 0:25:11.919
<v Speaker 5>getting into it with Christaps Porzingis in Game one, Listen,

0:25:12.040 --> 0:25:14.920
<v Speaker 5>I think it's good overall when you zoom out, it's

0:25:14.960 --> 0:25:17.040
<v Speaker 5>good to have this guy on your team. If you're

0:25:17.080 --> 0:25:20.600
<v Speaker 5>Doc Rivers. Duckers loves this guy. Doc Rivers loves the

0:25:20.640 --> 0:25:23.560
<v Speaker 5>fact that Luka Doncic. Number one was he was getting

0:25:23.560 --> 0:25:25.920
<v Speaker 5>physical with Marcus Morris on the drive to the hoop

0:25:26.119 --> 0:25:28.120
<v Speaker 5>as he should. You know, he was pushing him off there.

0:25:28.640 --> 0:25:31.440
<v Speaker 5>That was a real tough chicken wing. And then after

0:25:31.480 --> 0:25:33.240
<v Speaker 5>he got up after the hack on his neck, he

0:25:33.359 --> 0:25:36.600
<v Speaker 5>was livid. And that's exactly what you want, is Doc Rivers.

0:25:36.600 --> 0:25:38.960
<v Speaker 5>You want somebody to get under the other best player's skin,

0:25:39.280 --> 0:25:42.480
<v Speaker 5>and that has thrown him off, you know, to a degree.

0:25:42.520 --> 0:25:45.399
<v Speaker 5>Luca was amazing in this game and the series and

0:25:45.480 --> 0:25:48.680
<v Speaker 5>having that sixteen point third quarter. But yeah, I think

0:25:48.720 --> 0:25:52.200
<v Speaker 5>overall the lineup is perfect for Doc Rivers and I

0:25:52.200 --> 0:25:55.000
<v Speaker 5>think they sort of found something here. First, they found

0:25:55.000 --> 0:25:57.439
<v Speaker 5>out that Kawhi even though he's the best player in

0:25:57.440 --> 0:25:59.400
<v Speaker 5>the playoffs right now, I think he's been the steadiest

0:25:59.400 --> 0:26:02.400
<v Speaker 5>player in the postseason. He's still doing it co quietly. Yeah,

0:26:02.560 --> 0:26:04.840
<v Speaker 5>needed to throw that ugly punt in there, but he's

0:26:04.880 --> 0:26:07.719
<v Speaker 5>still the best. And then the fact that Patrick Beverly

0:26:07.840 --> 0:26:11.240
<v Speaker 5>is out, Landry Shammitt came into the starting lineup and

0:26:11.640 --> 0:26:14.919
<v Speaker 5>he's kind of perfect. You know, if you need a

0:26:14.960 --> 0:26:17.239
<v Speaker 5>defensive point guard, Patrick Beverley, you throw him in there.

0:26:17.280 --> 0:26:19.359
<v Speaker 5>But Landry Shammitt is more of a money shooter on

0:26:19.400 --> 0:26:22.240
<v Speaker 5>the outside. And if you look forward, whether it's Denver,

0:26:22.359 --> 0:26:24.600
<v Speaker 5>Utah and then the Lakers, you don't need a Patrick

0:26:24.600 --> 0:26:26.919
<v Speaker 5>Beverley necessarily for the guards that they have. For like

0:26:26.920 --> 0:26:29.560
<v Speaker 5>a KCP out there, I think Landry shammittt does enough

0:26:29.600 --> 0:26:33.359
<v Speaker 5>defensively and a whole ton offensively, you know, to be

0:26:33.400 --> 0:26:36.080
<v Speaker 5>that complimentary guy. And then off the bench you got

0:26:36.119 --> 0:26:39.840
<v Speaker 5>Reggie Jackson, who in baseball, we all know is mister October.

0:26:40.600 --> 0:26:43.119
<v Speaker 5>But in this game, in this game, Reggie Jackson was

0:26:43.160 --> 0:26:45.560
<v Speaker 5>a closer. He really was. He hit some big threes

0:26:45.880 --> 0:26:50.520
<v Speaker 5>and we're going to be potentially playing in October. If

0:26:50.520 --> 0:26:53.160
<v Speaker 5>Reggie Jackson's in the finals, he could be the new

0:26:53.160 --> 0:26:55.240
<v Speaker 5>mister October instead of mister April, May or June. But

0:26:55.359 --> 0:26:57.640
<v Speaker 5>I just bring that up because it's one of them

0:26:57.680 --> 0:27:00.680
<v Speaker 5>good problems to have, understandably, to have too many guys

0:27:00.680 --> 0:27:04.480
<v Speaker 5>like Whin Patrick Beverley comes back. But we're going from

0:27:04.520 --> 0:27:07.639
<v Speaker 5>this issue with the Clippers of not enough team camaraderie,

0:27:07.720 --> 0:27:10.000
<v Speaker 5>they hadn't played enough games together was the idea, and

0:27:10.000 --> 0:27:13.080
<v Speaker 5>I was definitely buying into that, guys like lou Williams,

0:27:13.160 --> 0:27:15.080
<v Speaker 5>Mantres Harold coming in and out of the bubble. But

0:27:15.200 --> 0:27:18.639
<v Speaker 5>now those two guys are getting killed defensively, and so

0:27:18.680 --> 0:27:20.080
<v Speaker 5>you have to kind of take one off the floor,

0:27:20.160 --> 0:27:23.720
<v Speaker 5>lou In Montrez. And so now Doc has to kind

0:27:23.720 --> 0:27:27.440
<v Speaker 5>of shuffle these lineups here. And I think Marcus Morris

0:27:27.840 --> 0:27:29.560
<v Speaker 5>he's going to be there to stay, even if he's

0:27:29.560 --> 0:27:31.440
<v Speaker 5>suspended for Game one of Round two, which I think

0:27:31.480 --> 0:27:33.119
<v Speaker 5>he will be. He's going to be in that starting

0:27:33.160 --> 0:27:37.760
<v Speaker 5>lineup because he's a really good basketball player. I know,

0:27:37.800 --> 0:27:40.320
<v Speaker 5>I know he plays ugly ball, but you can give

0:27:40.320 --> 0:27:42.000
<v Speaker 5>it to him and expect the bucket. I mean, he

0:27:42.080 --> 0:27:43.879
<v Speaker 5>was twenty points per game this year with the Knicks

0:27:43.920 --> 0:27:47.159
<v Speaker 5>on good percentages because he's he can get a bucket

0:27:47.160 --> 0:27:49.440
<v Speaker 5>at any time. So the Clippers are in a real

0:27:49.480 --> 0:27:50.040
<v Speaker 5>great spot.

0:27:50.400 --> 0:27:53.640
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, Reggie Jackson hitting the three spot up threes there

0:27:53.920 --> 0:27:56.400
<v Speaker 4>to ice this one. Yeah, more of a Dennis Eckersley.

0:27:56.480 --> 0:27:59.200
<v Speaker 4>Is that what you're thinking? They're task but the closer.

0:28:00.280 --> 0:28:03.480
<v Speaker 1>Jackson's career as a starter perfect.

0:28:03.760 --> 0:28:07.879
<v Speaker 5>Yeah that wow, wow, Yeah, Yeah, Reggie Jackson did it

0:28:07.920 --> 0:28:10.520
<v Speaker 5>for the A's as well as Dennis accuracy. You kind

0:28:10.520 --> 0:28:13.359
<v Speaker 5>of forget Reggie's Oakland A's days. I think I'm more

0:28:13.359 --> 0:28:15.480
<v Speaker 5>of a Yankee, but yeah, for sure, I'm not that old,

0:28:15.600 --> 0:28:18.000
<v Speaker 5>so I don't remember the Oakland days. But yeah, good stuff.

0:28:18.440 --> 0:28:20.600
<v Speaker 5>Is we got another one? You want to pull out

0:28:20.600 --> 0:28:30.960
<v Speaker 5>a Mike Diago, I'm Karney Lansford. Who and who Karney mckmustache.

0:28:31.000 --> 0:28:33.119
<v Speaker 5>He had a great third baseman mustache.

0:28:33.440 --> 0:28:33.920
<v Speaker 1>Amazing.

0:28:34.760 --> 0:28:38.040
<v Speaker 4>Back to Kawhi cooking. I liked when they tried to

0:28:38.040 --> 0:28:40.200
<v Speaker 4>go to the two three zone on him. Nope, that's

0:28:40.240 --> 0:28:43.920
<v Speaker 4>not gonna work, because that's when you see the limitations

0:28:43.920 --> 0:28:46.200
<v Speaker 4>of a zone in the NBA, when the other team

0:28:46.240 --> 0:28:49.040
<v Speaker 4>has a guy like Kawhi that can very easily score

0:28:49.600 --> 0:28:52.240
<v Speaker 4>or make something happen. And then late in this game,

0:28:52.240 --> 0:28:54.240
<v Speaker 4>you're you know, you're talking about it there, Trey. He

0:28:54.360 --> 0:28:58.200
<v Speaker 4>hit three straight jumpers where he didn't put the ball

0:28:58.240 --> 0:29:01.840
<v Speaker 4>on the floor. I get it, he's a tough cover,

0:29:02.160 --> 0:29:04.360
<v Speaker 4>but you gotta try and get up into him a

0:29:04.440 --> 0:29:08.000
<v Speaker 4>little bit more and at least make the guy dribble. Uh,

0:29:08.080 --> 0:29:09.920
<v Speaker 4>and and try and maybe turn the ball over or

0:29:09.920 --> 0:29:11.360
<v Speaker 4>you don't want to pass or something, or make someone

0:29:11.400 --> 0:29:14.000
<v Speaker 4>else like that was that was wild. You don't see

0:29:14.000 --> 0:29:17.280
<v Speaker 4>that a lot just literally gets the ball. Everything slows

0:29:17.320 --> 0:29:19.640
<v Speaker 4>down because Kawi is in no damn rush and then

0:29:19.800 --> 0:29:22.600
<v Speaker 4>just okay, are you gonna stand that far away from me?

0:29:22.920 --> 0:29:23.360
<v Speaker 1>You're sure?

0:29:23.880 --> 0:29:26.680
<v Speaker 4>Okay, I'm gonna shoot it and uh and then just

0:29:26.760 --> 0:29:29.200
<v Speaker 4>knock them down time after time. I mean, he was

0:29:29.240 --> 0:29:32.000
<v Speaker 4>not feeling any defense, any pressure at all. Again, not

0:29:32.080 --> 0:29:33.920
<v Speaker 4>easy because even then when you pressure him, he's gonna

0:29:33.920 --> 0:29:35.920
<v Speaker 4>go right around you, uh and then probably hit like

0:29:35.920 --> 0:29:37.800
<v Speaker 4>one of those little crazy MJ like shots you said

0:29:37.800 --> 0:29:38.360
<v Speaker 4>there Trey.

0:29:38.280 --> 0:29:40.640
<v Speaker 1>But gotta give him a little bit more. Uh.

0:29:40.680 --> 0:29:43.040
<v Speaker 4>The only thing else to add to this is a

0:29:43.160 --> 0:29:45.640
<v Speaker 4>question for you guys, who would the Clippers rather see

0:29:45.680 --> 0:29:47.920
<v Speaker 4>in the second round? Because they're gonna take on the

0:29:48.000 --> 0:29:50.920
<v Speaker 4>Nuggets or Jazz, what's a what's a more favorable matchup

0:29:50.920 --> 0:29:53.440
<v Speaker 4>for them? I'm sure they don't care about either team,

0:29:53.600 --> 0:29:55.880
<v Speaker 4>like they are a title contender, so it shouldn't matter.

0:29:55.880 --> 0:29:57.280
<v Speaker 4>But who would they rather see? Who do you think?

0:29:57.360 --> 0:30:01.520
<v Speaker 3>Lee? Yeah, they're pretty even, pretty even. I guess they

0:30:01.560 --> 0:30:05.080
<v Speaker 3>would rather see the Jazz.

0:30:05.320 --> 0:30:07.080
<v Speaker 1>I suppose I meant so too.

0:30:07.160 --> 0:30:09.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I don't know. I really can't split these two

0:30:09.680 --> 0:30:12.280
<v Speaker 3>teams because if you look inside, you've got Gobert and Joki,

0:30:12.400 --> 0:30:15.040
<v Speaker 3>so both big guys who should have an advantage over

0:30:15.080 --> 0:30:16.880
<v Speaker 3>Zubat's you know, in the starting but you know that

0:30:17.240 --> 0:30:19.960
<v Speaker 3>played great. Yeah he competes. And then they've got the

0:30:20.000 --> 0:30:21.920
<v Speaker 3>other bigger guys who who can you know, like Montrez

0:30:21.960 --> 0:30:24.400
<v Speaker 3>are going to throw their body at whoever the big

0:30:24.480 --> 0:30:26.400
<v Speaker 3>is for the other team. But then you've got Mitchell

0:30:26.440 --> 0:30:27.840
<v Speaker 3>and Murray. I mean, either one of those are going

0:30:28.080 --> 0:30:30.840
<v Speaker 3>you expect to have a really big performance as well.

0:30:31.120 --> 0:30:33.440
<v Speaker 3>And then you've got the role players. The question I

0:30:33.480 --> 0:30:36.480
<v Speaker 3>guess about the Jazz is they tend to sort of

0:30:37.040 --> 0:30:39.120
<v Speaker 3>fall apart a little bit in the playoffs at some point.

0:30:39.480 --> 0:30:41.360
<v Speaker 3>And the Nuggets, I mean, they went to seven last

0:30:41.400 --> 0:30:43.320
<v Speaker 3>year and they lost the game seven home, so very

0:30:43.440 --> 0:30:45.840
<v Speaker 3>very tough to really split. They've just got so many

0:30:45.880 --> 0:30:49.600
<v Speaker 3>similar parts and pieces that I don't ultimately don't think.

0:30:49.600 --> 0:30:51.760
<v Speaker 3>I'm just thinking who would match up on Kawhi the best,

0:30:51.800 --> 0:30:55.240
<v Speaker 3>who would have the best defender for Kauahi. It's probably

0:30:55.280 --> 0:30:59.360
<v Speaker 3>a Jeremy Grant or a Royce O'Neill, probably, and neither

0:30:59.400 --> 0:31:01.560
<v Speaker 3>one of those are gonna ska wild that much, so

0:31:01.880 --> 0:31:02.880
<v Speaker 3>ultimately it doesn't matter.

0:31:03.320 --> 0:31:05.680
<v Speaker 1>Okay, Trey, you sort of agree with that.

0:31:05.840 --> 0:31:08.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I kinda feel the same way that I feel

0:31:08.240 --> 0:31:11.960
<v Speaker 2>about both of those teams. As the Clippers playing against

0:31:12.240 --> 0:31:14.880
<v Speaker 2>the Mavericks, Like Maxi Kleiba is giving it as all

0:31:14.920 --> 0:31:16.600
<v Speaker 2>out there and he's doing a pretty good job. But

0:31:16.640 --> 0:31:18.800
<v Speaker 2>it's like Kwai can score eight straight points on three

0:31:18.840 --> 0:31:21.800
<v Speaker 2>possessions basically whenever he wants to. It's just a matter

0:31:21.880 --> 0:31:23.960
<v Speaker 2>of Okay, I'll do it right now, and I'll do

0:31:24.000 --> 0:31:25.720
<v Speaker 2>it in the second quarter, and I'll do it in

0:31:25.720 --> 0:31:27.080
<v Speaker 2>the first quarter and at the end of the game,

0:31:27.080 --> 0:31:29.160
<v Speaker 2>it all adds up to thirty. Yeah, that's going to

0:31:29.200 --> 0:31:31.040
<v Speaker 2>be the case against either of the teams that the

0:31:31.040 --> 0:31:32.480
<v Speaker 2>Clippers could see in the second round.

0:31:33.320 --> 0:31:37.160
<v Speaker 4>YEP, probably true. One final thing, I lied, Lee, I

0:31:37.240 --> 0:31:39.080
<v Speaker 4>knew you would have liked this. When we had the

0:31:39.160 --> 0:31:42.560
<v Speaker 4>karate chop Morris on Luca and all that, we had

0:31:42.600 --> 0:31:47.560
<v Speaker 4>the rare four free throws to make three points situation.

0:31:48.120 --> 0:31:51.520
<v Speaker 4>We do not get that very often, and Luca, I think,

0:31:51.560 --> 0:31:53.680
<v Speaker 4>only went two for four, so he sort of ruined it.

0:31:54.080 --> 0:31:56.040
<v Speaker 1>I missed a couple of years, but yeah, it was crazy.

0:31:56.200 --> 0:31:56.640
<v Speaker 1>It was wild.

0:31:56.720 --> 0:31:59.200
<v Speaker 4>You don't see that often free throws to make three points.

0:31:59.200 --> 0:32:02.240
<v Speaker 4>So if he had hit his first three, then that's it.

0:32:02.280 --> 0:32:04.920
<v Speaker 4>I mean, you're not getting the fourth one, crazy, right, Yeah, Yeah,

0:32:04.960 --> 0:32:06.240
<v Speaker 4>if you missed one, he would have had a chance.

0:32:06.240 --> 0:32:09.080
<v Speaker 3>What you did. Yeah, I really wasn't paying attention to that,

0:32:09.120 --> 0:32:11.920
<v Speaker 3>but yeah, you're right, You're right. I just mo always

0:32:12.000 --> 0:32:14.360
<v Speaker 3>looking back at I think it was Boban who sort

0:32:14.360 --> 0:32:19.280
<v Speaker 3>of prevented Luca from going at Marcus. I mean, just

0:32:19.360 --> 0:32:22.160
<v Speaker 3>that gigantic man there. I mean, Luca's watched six six

0:32:22.240 --> 0:32:24.360
<v Speaker 3>sixty seven something like that, and he looked like he

0:32:24.400 --> 0:32:26.920
<v Speaker 3>was about four feet tall in that particular moment because

0:32:26.960 --> 0:32:29.440
<v Speaker 3>Boban just stands there and just he's just such a

0:32:29.560 --> 0:32:30.480
<v Speaker 3>huge human being.

0:32:30.520 --> 0:32:31.440
<v Speaker 1>It's just yeah, that was.

0:32:31.400 --> 0:32:34.000
<v Speaker 2>The closest that Dont just came to injury when Boban

0:32:34.040 --> 0:32:34.880
<v Speaker 2>pulled his arm back.

0:32:35.240 --> 0:32:36.280
<v Speaker 1>No, no, his armor.

0:32:38.000 --> 0:32:39.200
<v Speaker 4>I'm sorry, he just.

0:32:41.000 --> 0:32:41.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:32:41.480 --> 0:32:43.560
<v Speaker 4>I mean this is the funny part, ironic part. Right,

0:32:44.120 --> 0:32:47.040
<v Speaker 4>The Mavericks can maybe use a Marcus Morris. I mean, Boban,

0:32:47.120 --> 0:32:48.720
<v Speaker 4>that's great. He's a giant, so he's a bit of

0:32:48.800 --> 0:32:51.160
<v Speaker 4>a forcer that way, but he's like the friendly bouncer, right,

0:32:51.200 --> 0:32:54.280
<v Speaker 4>you need the crazy bouncer, and that's Marcus Morris. Uh,

0:32:54.560 --> 0:32:56.560
<v Speaker 4>they could use a guy like that parent Sid Luca.

0:32:56.720 --> 0:32:59.360
<v Speaker 4>Not that Luca can't take this. The kid played in Europe.

0:32:59.400 --> 0:33:01.400
<v Speaker 4>I mean, oh yeah, he saw some hard shots, some

0:33:01.480 --> 0:33:04.920
<v Speaker 4>hard fouls and you know he's not afraid. He's going

0:33:05.000 --> 0:33:07.520
<v Speaker 4>at these guys. But you still need you need a

0:33:07.560 --> 0:33:10.600
<v Speaker 4>crazy weirdo like Marcus Morris in your corner. I think

0:33:10.640 --> 0:33:13.400
<v Speaker 4>on your roster. It always helps to do the dirty work.

0:33:13.440 --> 0:33:15.720
<v Speaker 4>So maybe they'll maybe they'll get one of those type

0:33:15.720 --> 0:33:17.200
<v Speaker 4>of guys in the league. What do you think they're task.

0:33:17.640 --> 0:33:21.080
<v Speaker 5>Oh Luca was he just kept coming in this series totally.

0:33:21.120 --> 0:33:23.280
<v Speaker 5>He needs somebody like that beside him. But as Doc

0:33:23.400 --> 0:33:26.360
<v Speaker 5>Rivers said postgame, when Luca came into the league, I

0:33:26.400 --> 0:33:29.160
<v Speaker 5>had a man crush on him and it's only developed

0:33:29.160 --> 0:33:31.200
<v Speaker 5>more and more and more. And he was trying to

0:33:31.240 --> 0:33:34.320
<v Speaker 5>be physical with Luca. But Luca six games, all the

0:33:34.360 --> 0:33:37.720
<v Speaker 5>way through the fourth quarter, was trying to pull his

0:33:37.760 --> 0:33:41.040
<v Speaker 5>team to victory and despite all the injuries. Yeah, he

0:33:41.080 --> 0:33:43.719
<v Speaker 5>definitely could use just somebody who's also on the floor

0:33:44.160 --> 0:33:46.680
<v Speaker 5>to defend him because Boban's coming off the bench generally

0:33:46.720 --> 0:33:49.360
<v Speaker 5>and has to be the Yeah, the friendly bouncer, as

0:33:49.360 --> 0:33:50.840
<v Speaker 5>he put it, That's that's the way to put it

0:33:50.920 --> 0:33:53.840
<v Speaker 5>for sure. Yeah, he could use some nastiness. But this

0:33:53.880 --> 0:33:57.160
<v Speaker 5>Mats team, they fought, they really did. It was it

0:33:57.200 --> 0:34:00.160
<v Speaker 5>was cool to see Tim Hardaway play defense and know

0:34:00.200 --> 0:34:03.160
<v Speaker 5>guys like Trey Burke and Michael Kidd, Gilchris, guys who

0:34:03.560 --> 0:34:07.040
<v Speaker 5>have you know, sort of gone from in our NBA NERDM.

0:34:07.160 --> 0:34:09.120
<v Speaker 5>We love those type of guys, like we you know,

0:34:09.120 --> 0:34:11.080
<v Speaker 5>we all follow all these guys. They kind of drop

0:34:11.080 --> 0:34:12.440
<v Speaker 5>off a little bit and now they're sort of in

0:34:12.480 --> 0:34:15.000
<v Speaker 5>the in the sphere of things against It was cool

0:34:15.040 --> 0:34:18.719
<v Speaker 5>to see those those guys come back. But uh yeahs

0:34:18.880 --> 0:34:21.120
<v Speaker 5>as even Rick Carlisle said postgame, I was watching a

0:34:21.160 --> 0:34:23.920
<v Speaker 5>lot of postgame press conferences. He said, Uh, you know,

0:34:24.080 --> 0:34:27.839
<v Speaker 5>we're we're going to get better guys around Luca and

0:34:28.160 --> 0:34:30.960
<v Speaker 5>that's that's the goal here. And yeah, that's that's the

0:34:31.040 --> 0:34:33.840
<v Speaker 5>number one objective. Even though those guys are all great stories,

0:34:33.840 --> 0:34:36.920
<v Speaker 5>if they can find a number three and keep Chris

0:34:37.000 --> 0:34:38.800
<v Speaker 5>Tops healthy, lookout.

0:34:38.920 --> 0:34:39.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:34:39.200 --> 0:34:41.600
<v Speaker 4>I mean, this was by no means a disappointing first

0:34:41.600 --> 0:34:44.799
<v Speaker 4>playoff appearance for Luca Dodgs because sometimes you see that, right,

0:34:44.840 --> 0:34:47.640
<v Speaker 4>you see young talent have an incredible year and then

0:34:47.680 --> 0:34:49.759
<v Speaker 4>they get the first taste of the playoffs and you know,

0:34:49.840 --> 0:34:51.279
<v Speaker 4>it's a bit of a shell shock moment. I know,

0:34:51.320 --> 0:34:52.880
<v Speaker 4>this whole bubble thing sort of throws that out the

0:34:52.880 --> 0:34:54.320
<v Speaker 4>window because there's no fans and you're not on the

0:34:54.400 --> 0:34:57.160
<v Speaker 4>road and stuff. But like you know, we've seen guys

0:34:57.200 --> 0:35:00.440
<v Speaker 4>have dominant, young regular seasons and then struggle in their

0:35:00.440 --> 0:35:03.120
<v Speaker 4>first playoff series. I can't say that happened here with Luca,

0:35:03.200 --> 0:35:04.800
<v Speaker 4>and he did it against one of the best defenses

0:35:04.800 --> 0:35:06.600
<v Speaker 4>in the league. On a bum ankle for a good

0:35:06.640 --> 0:35:08.960
<v Speaker 4>chunk of it. No, Kristaps Porsing is for a good

0:35:09.000 --> 0:35:11.839
<v Speaker 4>chunk of it and still put up a fight. So yeah,

0:35:11.880 --> 0:35:14.480
<v Speaker 4>you're you know, I saw Mark Cuban tweeting how like

0:35:14.920 --> 0:35:17.160
<v Speaker 4>excited it felt like, you know, coming through on the tweet,

0:35:17.200 --> 0:35:19.759
<v Speaker 4>just like the future is still promisingly with with well

0:35:19.760 --> 0:35:21.759
<v Speaker 4>you saw here from Luca and what he even had

0:35:21.800 --> 0:35:23.640
<v Speaker 4>around him still getting them to a couple of victories.

0:35:23.719 --> 0:35:25.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, well, it's just the defensive end you've talked about it.

0:35:25.719 --> 0:35:28.600
<v Speaker 3>That's what they need. They need someone who can protect

0:35:28.640 --> 0:35:30.759
<v Speaker 3>the paint and protect the perimeter a little bit better

0:35:30.760 --> 0:35:32.839
<v Speaker 3>because you can't have Luca trying to do all that

0:35:33.160 --> 0:35:35.560
<v Speaker 3>on both ends of the floor. And I think, you know,

0:35:35.800 --> 0:35:37.640
<v Speaker 3>I don't know who they're going to target, but I

0:35:37.640 --> 0:35:40.600
<v Speaker 3>think a guy like in al Horford, you know, who

0:35:40.680 --> 0:35:43.480
<v Speaker 3>could help them defensively. I think that would be important

0:35:43.520 --> 0:35:46.360
<v Speaker 3>and he offensively wouldn't hurt them either, but he's probably

0:35:46.360 --> 0:35:49.200
<v Speaker 3>not quite on the same timeline as where the Mavericks are.

0:35:49.239 --> 0:35:51.400
<v Speaker 3>But the player like that, you know, prime al horforit

0:35:51.440 --> 0:35:54.160
<v Speaker 3>there in Atlanta and Boston, I think would be certainly

0:35:54.160 --> 0:35:56.799
<v Speaker 3>an upgrade. And then they need some perimeter defense as well.

0:35:56.880 --> 0:35:59.480
<v Speaker 2>So I have a feeling Philadelphia might be okay with

0:35:59.600 --> 0:36:03.399
<v Speaker 2>partying with Al Horford maybe gettable Oh yeah, no.

0:36:03.400 --> 0:36:05.160
<v Speaker 3>I mean that's the sort of thing. But he's what

0:36:05.239 --> 0:36:08.319
<v Speaker 3>thirty three I think now, So you knows his best

0:36:08.400 --> 0:36:10.319
<v Speaker 3>days are probably behind him, but he's the sort of

0:36:10.360 --> 0:36:12.640
<v Speaker 3>player that I'm saying, you know that they need someone

0:36:12.719 --> 0:36:15.160
<v Speaker 3>there to help sure Chris STAPs as well help Kristaps

0:36:15.200 --> 0:36:17.440
<v Speaker 3>learn how to play a bit better defense. So, but

0:36:17.480 --> 0:36:19.560
<v Speaker 3>you know the things from the Maverick yesterday. Offensively, I

0:36:19.560 --> 0:36:21.719
<v Speaker 3>think Luca will be great with a guy like a

0:36:21.800 --> 0:36:24.239
<v Speaker 3>Tim Hardaway and adri In Phinney Smith if those guys

0:36:24.280 --> 0:36:27.320
<v Speaker 3>can be consistent and relied upon like they were earlier

0:36:27.320 --> 0:36:28.680
<v Speaker 3>in the series. But you also knew it was like

0:36:28.719 --> 0:36:30.239
<v Speaker 3>they were kind of punching above their weight to do

0:36:30.280 --> 0:36:33.239
<v Speaker 3>it the entire series without Kristaps. So, but that's the

0:36:33.239 --> 0:36:35.239
<v Speaker 3>sort of system I think that Luca is best in

0:36:35.440 --> 0:36:37.680
<v Speaker 3>when it's like, you know, it's like Lebron, you know,

0:36:37.719 --> 0:36:39.680
<v Speaker 3>when he was at his prime, like or in his

0:36:39.719 --> 0:36:42.440
<v Speaker 3>Cleveland days, like spread him around with shooters and let

0:36:42.560 --> 0:36:45.040
<v Speaker 3>him dictate how he's going to facilitate the offense.

0:36:45.239 --> 0:36:47.200
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and I would have liked to have seen, honestly,

0:36:47.400 --> 0:36:51.040
<v Speaker 4>the Mavericks play the Nuggets or the Jazz. I wonder

0:36:51.080 --> 0:36:52.840
<v Speaker 4>if they would have beaten them in the first round series. No,

0:36:52.880 --> 0:36:55.160
<v Speaker 4>I know, the porzingis injury, you know, MUCKs things up.

0:36:55.200 --> 0:36:59.040
<v Speaker 4>But they are playing the Clippers here, who people had

0:36:59.160 --> 0:37:02.000
<v Speaker 4>as a Championshi contender from day one, you know, when

0:37:02.000 --> 0:37:04.560
<v Speaker 4>they bring in Kawhi and Paul George and yeah, they

0:37:04.600 --> 0:37:06.000
<v Speaker 4>were missing a lot of guys throughout the year, but

0:37:06.040 --> 0:37:07.680
<v Speaker 4>everyone had them on the short list of teams to

0:37:07.680 --> 0:37:09.279
<v Speaker 4>win the title. So this is not like, oh, what

0:37:09.400 --> 0:37:12.080
<v Speaker 4>a tough first round loss, you know, like the complete opposite.

0:37:12.120 --> 0:37:13.600
<v Speaker 4>They're playing on what should be one of the best

0:37:13.640 --> 0:37:15.799
<v Speaker 4>teams in the league. And I wonder if they would

0:37:15.800 --> 0:37:18.160
<v Speaker 4>have advanced to the second round if they matched up

0:37:18.200 --> 0:37:20.600
<v Speaker 4>almost against anybody except the Lakers are close.

0:37:21.120 --> 0:37:24.080
<v Speaker 1>It's possible. It's possible. All right, let's keep it moving here.

0:37:24.239 --> 0:37:26.719
<v Speaker 4>We're gonna get to the Celtics Raptors Game one second

0:37:26.800 --> 0:37:30.080
<v Speaker 4>round series. But first get the guitar. Maybe I don't know,

0:37:30.160 --> 0:37:32.880
<v Speaker 4>quick word from our sponsors there, Oh.

0:37:32.719 --> 0:37:34.600
<v Speaker 5>You better believe I wrote a song for today. No

0:37:34.680 --> 0:37:39.400
<v Speaker 5>guitar though, groom, groom groom, groom. I want to see you, groom.

0:37:39.640 --> 0:37:42.960
<v Speaker 5>Let's spend the night together, but first let's see you groom.

0:37:43.520 --> 0:37:45.920
<v Speaker 5>Another week of Manscape Dads. Baby, don't turn this off.

0:37:45.960 --> 0:37:48.799
<v Speaker 5>That's the extent of the song. Yeah, we've been doing

0:37:48.840 --> 0:37:52.560
<v Speaker 5>Manscaped Dads for so long that the following copy has

0:37:52.640 --> 0:37:56.880
<v Speaker 5>already gone through three phases. It was believable. Then it

0:37:56.880 --> 0:37:58.759
<v Speaker 5>didn't seem like it was happening. But now it's come

0:37:58.800 --> 0:38:01.640
<v Speaker 5>all the way back around and it's definitely a possibility.

0:38:01.880 --> 0:38:05.800
<v Speaker 5>Live sports are back. We may see an NBA playoff

0:38:05.840 --> 0:38:09.239
<v Speaker 5>matchup between the Clippers and the Nuggets in the second round.

0:38:09.280 --> 0:38:11.240
<v Speaker 1>Ooh yeah, still possible.

0:38:11.440 --> 0:38:14.160
<v Speaker 5>One more win for Denver. That's why our partners at

0:38:14.200 --> 0:38:16.960
<v Speaker 5>Manscaped have partnered with us to make sure your nuggets

0:38:17.000 --> 0:38:20.640
<v Speaker 5>are as safe as possible when that matchup happens. And

0:38:20.719 --> 0:38:23.319
<v Speaker 5>if you aren't freshening up, you're undercarriage. After hearing a

0:38:23.360 --> 0:38:26.480
<v Speaker 5>fresh daily Manscaped ad for the last few weeks, I

0:38:26.520 --> 0:38:30.120
<v Speaker 5>don't know how to help you. Honestly, forget Manscape products

0:38:30.120 --> 0:38:32.520
<v Speaker 5>for a second. Just take care of yourself a little bit,

0:38:32.560 --> 0:38:35.960
<v Speaker 5>regardless of what tools you own. Hit the groom room

0:38:36.000 --> 0:38:39.279
<v Speaker 5>for ten minutes and make it happen. But if you

0:38:39.280 --> 0:38:42.799
<v Speaker 5>want to do it right, grab some manscape gear. Lee.

0:38:42.840 --> 0:38:44.279
<v Speaker 5>Do you have a groom room? I know you have

0:38:44.320 --> 0:38:47.160
<v Speaker 5>a boom room.

0:38:47.320 --> 0:38:50.800
<v Speaker 3>The groom room is the boom room you have. Gross,

0:38:52.440 --> 0:38:53.879
<v Speaker 3>there's a lot of hair on my hairy God, there's

0:38:53.880 --> 0:38:57.400
<v Speaker 3>a lot of hair in my house, all over.

0:38:57.280 --> 0:39:00.600
<v Speaker 1>That white coach. Yeah.

0:39:00.640 --> 0:39:02.520
<v Speaker 5>I hope it's the dice in room as well.

0:39:03.560 --> 0:39:06.040
<v Speaker 3>Uh yeah, yeah, don't get me started on the dice.

0:39:06.080 --> 0:39:07.319
<v Speaker 3>I don't know the bad dy with the dice.

0:39:07.640 --> 0:39:09.640
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, no, wonder it's not working. You're clogging it up

0:39:09.680 --> 0:39:10.239
<v Speaker 4>with all your.

0:39:11.960 --> 0:39:14.239
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but my hair isn't long. It's just a lot

0:39:14.280 --> 0:39:16.720
<v Speaker 3>of it, you know. But yeah, I'm out on the diceon.

0:39:16.760 --> 0:39:17.120
<v Speaker 3>I'm out.

0:39:17.280 --> 0:39:18.040
<v Speaker 1>Give me a shock.

0:39:20.040 --> 0:39:23.120
<v Speaker 5>You never know, Mike Dyson is making a comeback in October.

0:39:23.200 --> 0:39:26.200

0:40:00.520 --> 0:40:01.680
<v Speaker 1>Okay, let's get into it.

0:40:01.719 --> 0:40:05.399
<v Speaker 4>Celtics dominate the Raptors one, twelve ninety four to take

0:40:05.440 --> 0:40:09.200
<v Speaker 4>the one to zero Eastern Conference Semifinals lead league.

0:40:09.200 --> 0:40:10.040
<v Speaker 1>Get us started.

0:40:10.120 --> 0:40:12.120
<v Speaker 4>It was a miserable day for the Raps there. It

0:40:12.160 --> 0:40:14.200
<v Speaker 4>was a rough first quarter and it didn't really get

0:40:14.280 --> 0:40:16.200
<v Speaker 4>much better from there. Celtics played a pretty damn good

0:40:16.239 --> 0:40:17.200
<v Speaker 4>game of basketball.

0:40:17.560 --> 0:40:20.080
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that's all I can say about this one for

0:40:20.160 --> 0:40:23.880
<v Speaker 3>the Raptors. Now listen watching this game. Fantastic performance from

0:40:23.880 --> 0:40:26.080
<v Speaker 3>the Celtics. They were on their game from the start.

0:40:26.120 --> 0:40:28.840
<v Speaker 3>They scored easily, they defended well. The Raptors couldn't score

0:40:28.880 --> 0:40:31.040
<v Speaker 3>at all, and their offense looked awful. See after we

0:40:31.120 --> 0:40:33.560
<v Speaker 3>getting three fouls in the first quarter. I certainly didn't help.

0:40:33.920 --> 0:40:36.480
<v Speaker 3>But two years ago, if you remember, in the second round,

0:40:36.480 --> 0:40:38.600
<v Speaker 3>the Raptors played the Cads in a game that they

0:40:38.640 --> 0:40:41.719
<v Speaker 3>should have won, but they lost, and basically they lost

0:40:41.760 --> 0:40:44.080
<v Speaker 3>the entire series with that one game, even though I

0:40:44.120 --> 0:40:45.719
<v Speaker 3>know it took a game winner from Lebron in Game

0:40:45.760 --> 0:40:47.960
<v Speaker 3>three of that series. But you've just felt that the

0:40:48.040 --> 0:40:51.320
<v Speaker 3>Raptors didn't win that game and that affected them mentally.

0:40:51.440 --> 0:40:52.200
<v Speaker 1>That really just.

0:40:52.239 --> 0:40:54.399
<v Speaker 4>Right right you're talking about the game where they had

0:40:54.440 --> 0:40:55.920
<v Speaker 4>like seven chances to tip the ball.

0:40:57.280 --> 0:40:59.719
<v Speaker 3>Yes, yes, yes, yes, So they lose that game and

0:41:00.080 --> 0:41:02.120
<v Speaker 3>you could just tell that it was like, oh my god,

0:41:02.200 --> 0:41:06.719
<v Speaker 3>how they lost the unlosable game. Now, this game wasn't unlosable.

0:41:07.000 --> 0:41:09.480
<v Speaker 3>And the Raptors are so much different from them because

0:41:09.480 --> 0:41:11.520
<v Speaker 3>mentally they're a very strong team. Go back to last

0:41:11.520 --> 0:41:14.000
<v Speaker 3>season in the playoffs, every round except for the finals,

0:41:14.000 --> 0:41:16.120
<v Speaker 3>they were down in a series, they tailed in a series,

0:41:16.120 --> 0:41:18.360
<v Speaker 3>and they fought back, and I think that's a credit

0:41:18.400 --> 0:41:20.160
<v Speaker 3>to Nick Nurse, but also just to the players. They

0:41:20.200 --> 0:41:22.520
<v Speaker 3>are experiencing their veterans, and that's what if you're a

0:41:22.640 --> 0:41:25.200
<v Speaker 3>Raptors fan, you are hoping to see now in game two,

0:41:25.640 --> 0:41:28.400
<v Speaker 3>like a pretty quick bounce back, a pretty quick response,

0:41:28.960 --> 0:41:31.239
<v Speaker 3>because Game one was as bad as I think the

0:41:31.320 --> 0:41:32.200
<v Speaker 3>Raptors could have played.

0:41:32.320 --> 0:41:32.840
<v Speaker 1>I really do.

0:41:33.120 --> 0:41:35.560
<v Speaker 3>I didn't see anyone out there who seemed to get

0:41:35.560 --> 0:41:37.000
<v Speaker 3>in any sort of flow. And again, a lot of

0:41:37.000 --> 0:41:38.920
<v Speaker 3>that I think goes to the Celtics defense and just

0:41:38.960 --> 0:41:41.560
<v Speaker 3>the way that they played from the start. The Celtics

0:41:41.640 --> 0:41:43.960
<v Speaker 3>jumped on the Raptors from the start, and anytime the

0:41:44.080 --> 0:41:46.560
<v Speaker 3>Raptors got that lead to sort of nine or eight points,

0:41:46.800 --> 0:41:48.840
<v Speaker 3>it just felt then all of a sudden, the Celtics

0:41:48.920 --> 0:41:51.160
<v Speaker 3>rattled off three or four straight baskets. Kemball was great.

0:41:51.400 --> 0:41:53.359
<v Speaker 3>Jason Tatum, I think he only finished with twenty one

0:41:53.360 --> 0:41:54.480
<v Speaker 3>in the end, but it felt like he had a

0:41:54.520 --> 0:41:57.880
<v Speaker 3>way bigger impact on the game. And Marcus Smart was

0:41:57.920 --> 0:42:00.000
<v Speaker 3>also very, very good for the Celtics at both ends.

0:42:00.120 --> 0:42:02.720
<v Speaker 3>So this one you could look out and go, wow,

0:42:02.880 --> 0:42:05.160
<v Speaker 3>the Raptors are in trouble here, and before they won

0:42:05.160 --> 0:42:07.560
<v Speaker 3>the championship, I would say absolutely they're in trouble. But

0:42:08.080 --> 0:42:10.719
<v Speaker 3>having won the championship and shown last season that they

0:42:10.800 --> 0:42:13.200
<v Speaker 3>mentally are a lot tougher team, I think this is

0:42:13.320 --> 0:42:16.520
<v Speaker 3>just one of those ugly games. They missed five days.

0:42:16.600 --> 0:42:20.799
<v Speaker 3>Kyle Larry talked about the emotional things that they've gone through.

0:42:20.800 --> 0:42:23.000
<v Speaker 3>Of course, with a couple of days off, so they

0:42:23.040 --> 0:42:24.880
<v Speaker 3>weren't on the they didn't get off to a good start.

0:42:25.280 --> 0:42:27.640
<v Speaker 3>But I think the Raptors just don't need to panic anyway,

0:42:27.640 --> 0:42:29.200
<v Speaker 3>and I don't think they will. I think they'll be

0:42:29.280 --> 0:42:32.160
<v Speaker 3>much better in Game two. I certainly hope so, because

0:42:32.680 --> 0:42:34.719
<v Speaker 3>otherwise this series could be over very quickly if the

0:42:34.800 --> 0:42:37.799
<v Speaker 3>Raptors can't sort of shake off that performance.

0:42:37.960 --> 0:42:42.719
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, the Raptors first quarter eleven fouls committed, okay, three

0:42:42.760 --> 0:42:47.320
<v Speaker 4>of them on Siakam, Ugly turnover after ugly turnover, missing

0:42:47.480 --> 0:42:50.359
<v Speaker 4>makeable shots at times, and we're down thirty nine to

0:42:50.360 --> 0:42:55.160
<v Speaker 4>twenty three. They could not find any sort of rhythm offensively. Now,

0:42:55.400 --> 0:42:57.160
<v Speaker 4>they never really found it all game, and that's the

0:42:57.200 --> 0:42:59.520
<v Speaker 4>concern task if you're a Raps fan. Celtics are a

0:42:59.600 --> 0:43:02.319
<v Speaker 4>damn good defensive team. They took away the transition lee.

0:43:02.400 --> 0:43:04.399
<v Speaker 4>That's something you talked about heading into the series. Raps

0:43:04.400 --> 0:43:07.000
<v Speaker 4>only had seven fast break points, and that is with

0:43:07.080 --> 0:43:09.160
<v Speaker 4>the Celtics actually turning the ball over a lot. They

0:43:09.360 --> 0:43:12.560
<v Speaker 4>just are so athletic, so discipline defensively, they just screen

0:43:12.640 --> 0:43:15.279
<v Speaker 4>back on defense and they're like, just don't let the

0:43:15.360 --> 0:43:18.160
<v Speaker 4>Raps score in transition because we think we can slow

0:43:18.200 --> 0:43:21.239
<v Speaker 4>them enough. When it's half court and you know, so far,

0:43:21.320 --> 0:43:23.319
<v Speaker 4>so good. Of course after one game, really now two

0:43:23.320 --> 0:43:25.279
<v Speaker 4>games down in the bubble where they've done a great job,

0:43:25.560 --> 0:43:26.960
<v Speaker 4>But are you concerned tasks.

0:43:26.719 --> 0:43:30.440
<v Speaker 5>As a Raps fan, one hundred percent definitely concerned. The

0:43:30.560 --> 0:43:33.680
<v Speaker 5>Celtics team is not going to give up transition points.

0:43:33.800 --> 0:43:37.520
<v Speaker 5>The Raptor's weakness is what the Celtics are going to

0:43:37.600 --> 0:43:43.719
<v Speaker 5>try and illuminate here or highlight, and their weakness is

0:43:43.800 --> 0:43:46.680
<v Speaker 5>half court offense. I mean, that's that's where the problem is.

0:43:46.840 --> 0:43:48.680
<v Speaker 5>Where's it going to come from. I think a few

0:43:48.719 --> 0:43:51.440
<v Speaker 5>things here. I think they maybe tried to push Pascal

0:43:51.520 --> 0:43:54.120
<v Speaker 5>Siakam a little bit into that number one role, maybe

0:43:54.160 --> 0:43:56.120
<v Speaker 5>try to focus on him a little too much, maybe

0:43:56.160 --> 0:43:57.879
<v Speaker 5>tried to get him going a little bit too much.

0:43:58.800 --> 0:44:00.760
<v Speaker 5>I'm just trying to find an excuse for why Pascal

0:44:00.800 --> 0:44:04.319
<v Speaker 5>Siakam was missing bunnies at the rim over Jalen Brown,

0:44:04.360 --> 0:44:06.279
<v Speaker 5>who defended him well, and they were definitely ready for

0:44:06.320 --> 0:44:08.839
<v Speaker 5>that spin, but he was also missing the three point shot.

0:44:08.880 --> 0:44:12.359
<v Speaker 5>Pascal Siakam was not good, and he's definitely the guy

0:44:12.400 --> 0:44:16.200
<v Speaker 5>who can overcome any sort of great half court defense.

0:44:16.239 --> 0:44:17.799
<v Speaker 5>He's the guy who can just get his shot at

0:44:17.840 --> 0:44:20.080
<v Speaker 5>any time, so Pascal has to be better. Maybe if

0:44:20.080 --> 0:44:22.320
<v Speaker 5>it's in the flow of the offense, it'll matter a

0:44:22.360 --> 0:44:25.320
<v Speaker 5>little bit more, or he'll be a little less. I

0:44:25.360 --> 0:44:27.120
<v Speaker 5>don't know, Deer in the headlights. I'm the number one

0:44:27.120 --> 0:44:29.839
<v Speaker 5>guy here in a tough series. But he just missed

0:44:29.880 --> 0:44:33.080
<v Speaker 5>bunnies and that was that was weird to see him

0:44:33.160 --> 0:44:36.000
<v Speaker 5>get Jalen Brown down to the rim and then front

0:44:36.080 --> 0:44:39.239
<v Speaker 5>rim it a couple times there early and so he

0:44:39.280 --> 0:44:42.920
<v Speaker 5>had just a terrible night offensively. And I think you

0:44:43.080 --> 0:44:45.920
<v Speaker 5>may have to go small, as we talked about Pascal

0:44:46.040 --> 0:44:48.680
<v Speaker 5>Siakam and og Ananobi at the four or five sit

0:44:48.760 --> 0:44:53.000
<v Speaker 5>down Gasol and Surge, just to try and space it

0:44:53.000 --> 0:44:55.359
<v Speaker 5>out as much because the Celtics defense is so good,

0:44:55.719 --> 0:44:57.520
<v Speaker 5>or maybe you have Mark Gasol on the floor and

0:44:57.600 --> 0:45:00.319
<v Speaker 5>let him guard Marcus Smart. It's a great suggestion from

0:45:00.360 --> 0:45:03.600
<v Speaker 5>our colleague Blake Murphy to see if the Celtics go

0:45:03.680 --> 0:45:06.319
<v Speaker 5>to him a little bit, if the Celtics go away

0:45:06.320 --> 0:45:08.480
<v Speaker 5>from Jalen Brown, Jason Tatum, m kemba Walker at all

0:45:08.719 --> 0:45:10.919
<v Speaker 5>and try and get Marcus Smart going on Marcus Sol

0:45:11.520 --> 0:45:15.319
<v Speaker 5>because Gasol's struggling out there on out there trying to

0:45:15.400 --> 0:45:17.279
<v Speaker 5>you know, hang with Daniel Tye on the perimeter and

0:45:17.320 --> 0:45:20.880
<v Speaker 5>then hang with guards. So I think the Marcus Smart

0:45:21.160 --> 0:45:24.120
<v Speaker 5>experiment might not be bad. But we didn't see Nick

0:45:24.200 --> 0:45:27.200
<v Speaker 5>Nurse have to adapt because this was a frigging blowout,

0:45:27.280 --> 0:45:29.480
<v Speaker 5>and so I think I think Nurse would have in

0:45:29.520 --> 0:45:32.279
<v Speaker 5>the fourth quarter if he needed to, because he is

0:45:32.280 --> 0:45:34.400
<v Speaker 5>that kind of guy and we know he will try

0:45:34.440 --> 0:45:37.840
<v Speaker 5>some things. But I'm definitely worried about the half court offense,

0:45:37.920 --> 0:45:39.799
<v Speaker 5>especially when Kyle Lowry looked good and he had a

0:45:39.800 --> 0:45:42.520
<v Speaker 5>seventeen point night, and you know, Kyle Lowry might have

0:45:42.600 --> 0:45:47.000
<v Speaker 5>some duds in this series. You need, you desperately need

0:45:48.120 --> 0:45:51.920
<v Speaker 5>somebody like Fred you know, Og to have a big

0:45:51.920 --> 0:45:53.799
<v Speaker 5>game or a Norman Pwell to have a big game.

0:45:54.040 --> 0:45:56.719
<v Speaker 5>And you got a great surge game as well. So yeah,

0:45:56.760 --> 0:45:59.840
<v Speaker 5>definitely definitely concerned with where the points are going to

0:45:59.880 --> 0:46:00.440
<v Speaker 5>come from.

0:46:00.560 --> 0:46:03.920
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, Lowry gave the Raptors a chance at the end

0:46:03.960 --> 0:46:05.680
<v Speaker 4>of the third quarter. I thought he sort of did

0:46:05.680 --> 0:46:07.799
<v Speaker 4>his classic like takes over the game for three or

0:46:07.800 --> 0:46:10.000
<v Speaker 4>four minutes to give him a fighter's chance. And then

0:46:10.040 --> 0:46:12.280
<v Speaker 4>the start of the fourth quarter happens, There's a Lowry

0:46:12.280 --> 0:46:14.920
<v Speaker 4>score again, the Raptors get a stop and then Lowry

0:46:15.000 --> 0:46:17.520
<v Speaker 4>turns the ball over and Brad Wanamaker hits a three,

0:46:17.560 --> 0:46:19.200
<v Speaker 4>and it was like, oh, all that great work you

0:46:19.239 --> 0:46:21.560
<v Speaker 4>did Lowry. There he sort of just gave away there

0:46:21.560 --> 0:46:24.719
<v Speaker 4>on a brutal It was a brutal, brutal turnover. But otherwise, Yeah,

0:46:24.719 --> 0:46:28.560
<v Speaker 4>Sergeo was okay. Lowry played fine. I thought everyone else sucked.

0:46:28.640 --> 0:46:30.759
<v Speaker 4>Van Vliet sucked. He's having another baby. He was three

0:46:30.800 --> 0:46:32.719
<v Speaker 4>or sixteen, two of eleven from deep You hope that

0:46:32.760 --> 0:46:35.640
<v Speaker 4>doesn't happen again. But yeah, Trey, I'm interested to hear

0:46:35.719 --> 0:46:38.200
<v Speaker 4>take You had the Celtics obviously in the series and seven.

0:46:38.400 --> 0:46:40.479
<v Speaker 4>A lot of us picking a seven game series here,

0:46:41.760 --> 0:46:44.640
<v Speaker 4>like you, what did you take away from this game?

0:46:44.680 --> 0:46:46.640
<v Speaker 4>One of how well the Celtics played or how poorly

0:46:46.640 --> 0:46:47.480
<v Speaker 4>the Raptors did.

0:46:47.960 --> 0:46:51.000
<v Speaker 2>Well, the main thing that sticks out is the Raptors

0:46:51.040 --> 0:46:52.359
<v Speaker 2>going ten for forty from three.

0:46:52.640 --> 0:46:53.200
<v Speaker 1>That's terrible.

0:46:53.200 --> 0:46:55.120
<v Speaker 2>You're not gonna win a game shooting twenty five percent

0:46:55.160 --> 0:46:57.799
<v Speaker 2>from three. And then, you know, you would assume that

0:46:57.840 --> 0:46:59.880
<v Speaker 2>the Raptors will shoot a little bit better going forward

0:47:00.080 --> 0:47:02.080
<v Speaker 2>the series, and you also don't expect Marcus Smart to

0:47:02.120 --> 0:47:05.560
<v Speaker 2>make five threes. But the offense just comes easier for

0:47:05.680 --> 0:47:09.000
<v Speaker 2>the Celtics. You know, I thought Kemba Walker was incredible yesterday.

0:47:09.000 --> 0:47:11.879
<v Speaker 2>He was just in complete control in the pick and roll,

0:47:12.000 --> 0:47:13.839
<v Speaker 2>finding out whether he's going to take a jump shot,

0:47:13.880 --> 0:47:15.279
<v Speaker 2>whether he's going to get to the rim, whether he's

0:47:15.280 --> 0:47:16.719
<v Speaker 2>going to set something up for somebody else.

0:47:16.719 --> 0:47:18.399
<v Speaker 1>And I thought Tye was great too.

0:47:18.440 --> 0:47:20.799
<v Speaker 2>He really outplayed Mark Gasol being a fulk rum for

0:47:20.840 --> 0:47:23.560
<v Speaker 2>the offense, cutt into the hoop, hitting the glass, scoring points.

0:47:24.160 --> 0:47:25.600
<v Speaker 1>This Raptors are going to have to.

0:47:25.520 --> 0:47:27.160
<v Speaker 2>Go small if Gasol is not going to do anything

0:47:27.200 --> 0:47:29.320
<v Speaker 2>out there, if he's not playing defense, if he's passing

0:47:29.400 --> 0:47:31.560
<v Speaker 2>up shots. It's the classic Mark Gasol, what are you

0:47:31.600 --> 0:47:34.439
<v Speaker 2>out there doing? You're just out there and they need more.

0:47:34.480 --> 0:47:36.799
<v Speaker 2>They need the Raptors need to find a way to

0:47:36.800 --> 0:47:39.520
<v Speaker 2>score some points because I mean, the Celtics played good.

0:47:39.560 --> 0:47:41.799
<v Speaker 2>Their defense was really really good. I thought in the

0:47:41.800 --> 0:47:44.160
<v Speaker 2>first half, like Lowry, he ended up with a decent line,

0:47:44.200 --> 0:47:45.800
<v Speaker 2>but I didn't think he was really doing anything in

0:47:45.840 --> 0:47:48.160
<v Speaker 2>the first two quarters of the game. And that's really

0:47:48.200 --> 0:47:50.000
<v Speaker 2>where the game was lost for the Raptors. They were

0:47:50.000 --> 0:47:52.000
<v Speaker 2>down by seventeen at halftime, and that's tough to come

0:47:52.040 --> 0:47:54.239
<v Speaker 2>back from then you look at the Celtics. It didn't

0:47:54.280 --> 0:47:57.279
<v Speaker 2>feel like anybody played an incredible game, but you still

0:47:57.280 --> 0:48:00.000
<v Speaker 2>get twenty five twenty one from Smart, twenty one from Tatum,

0:48:00.120 --> 0:48:03.400
<v Speaker 2>seventeen for Brown, eighteen from Kemba Walker. The points just

0:48:03.440 --> 0:48:05.640
<v Speaker 2>pile up because they have so many options out there.

0:48:06.520 --> 0:48:08.000
<v Speaker 2>The Raptors got to find a way to get out

0:48:08.000 --> 0:48:09.879
<v Speaker 2>in transition because the Celtics do a great job.

0:48:09.920 --> 0:48:11.520
<v Speaker 1>They turned the ball over a lot.

0:48:11.400 --> 0:48:13.719
<v Speaker 2>Yesterday, twenty two turnovers, but most of them were not

0:48:13.800 --> 0:48:16.279
<v Speaker 2>live ball turnovers, and the ones that they were, the

0:48:16.280 --> 0:48:19.399
<v Speaker 2>Celtics are a little bit faster, smaller, more athletic team.

0:48:19.480 --> 0:48:20.919
<v Speaker 1>They do a great job of getting back.

0:48:21.000 --> 0:48:23.120
<v Speaker 2>So if Siakam's not gonna be able to score on

0:48:23.160 --> 0:48:25.839
<v Speaker 2>Marcus Smart, maybe you just got to go small and

0:48:25.880 --> 0:48:28.239
<v Speaker 2>try and run as much as you possibly can. Figure

0:48:28.280 --> 0:48:30.279
<v Speaker 2>out a way to get a little more space out

0:48:30.280 --> 0:48:33.240
<v Speaker 2>there so that Fred van Vliet can get some good looks.

0:48:34.000 --> 0:48:37.000
<v Speaker 2>It's just one game, right, like we saw the Celtics.

0:48:37.280 --> 0:48:39.560
<v Speaker 2>The Celtics beat the Bucks last year right in Game

0:48:39.600 --> 0:48:41.520
<v Speaker 2>one and then they ended up losing in five games.

0:48:41.600 --> 0:48:45.839
<v Speaker 2>This can turn in a second the Raptors. They've won

0:48:45.880 --> 0:48:49.160
<v Speaker 2>a Game one, once right in franchise history, literally one time.

0:48:49.239 --> 0:48:51.320
<v Speaker 2>This is where they are meant to be. This is

0:48:51.360 --> 0:48:52.920
<v Speaker 2>still going to be a long series. It's still going

0:48:52.960 --> 0:48:55.080
<v Speaker 2>to be a great series. Can't wait to see the adjustments.

0:48:55.640 --> 0:48:58.839
<v Speaker 2>But Toronto just played really, really poorly yesterday. I thought

0:48:58.840 --> 0:49:01.440
<v Speaker 2>the Celtics were good, great, so it ended up being

0:49:01.440 --> 0:49:02.480
<v Speaker 2>a nice win for Boston.

0:49:02.640 --> 0:49:05.759
<v Speaker 4>Here's an email we got, sup No Dunk's crew is

0:49:05.800 --> 0:49:10.320
<v Speaker 4>Pascal siakam overrated. Nothing he does on f offense is smooth.

0:49:10.480 --> 0:49:14.040
<v Speaker 4>Everything seems rush. That was from Dustin and like you said,

0:49:14.040 --> 0:49:15.880
<v Speaker 4>it was a rough Game one. Let's be honest, tasks.

0:49:16.000 --> 0:49:18.279
<v Speaker 4>He's been bad in the entire restart. He has not

0:49:18.320 --> 0:49:20.840
<v Speaker 4>played well in the bubble. He's averaging under eighteen points

0:49:20.840 --> 0:49:23.759
<v Speaker 4>per game, shooting under forty percent, can't really hit a three,

0:49:23.800 --> 0:49:28.160
<v Speaker 4>He's like at thirty one percent there. And I am

0:49:28.239 --> 0:49:31.759
<v Speaker 4>concerned in like, these teams are so great defensively and

0:49:31.800 --> 0:49:33.719
<v Speaker 4>if they're going to take away transition, if they can

0:49:33.800 --> 0:49:36.399
<v Speaker 4>the Celtics, and it's gonna be half court offense versus

0:49:36.400 --> 0:49:38.279
<v Speaker 4>half court offense. I think Trey, you're sort of right.

0:49:38.600 --> 0:49:41.279
<v Speaker 4>I got a lot more faith in a Tatum and

0:49:41.320 --> 0:49:43.480
<v Speaker 4>maybe even a Brown and maybe even a Kemba for

0:49:43.520 --> 0:49:46.680
<v Speaker 4>that matter, to create something in a one on one

0:49:46.719 --> 0:49:49.719
<v Speaker 4>setting of breaking down a guy and at least getting

0:49:49.760 --> 0:49:51.440
<v Speaker 4>into the paint either to the line or setting up

0:49:51.440 --> 0:49:53.920
<v Speaker 4>another guy that I may be doing the Raptors because Siakam.

0:49:54.280 --> 0:49:56.480
<v Speaker 4>I mean, look, there used to be debates like Tatum

0:49:56.560 --> 0:49:59.120
<v Speaker 4>or Siakam. Tata is Siakam. I love Siakam. I'm a

0:49:59.200 --> 0:50:01.200
<v Speaker 4>raptors him. There's no way in the world you're taking

0:50:01.200 --> 0:50:04.360
<v Speaker 4>Siakam over him. You're just not because Tatum he can dribble,

0:50:04.600 --> 0:50:06.520
<v Speaker 4>he has handled, he can look at you, he can

0:50:06.560 --> 0:50:08.720
<v Speaker 4>square you up and go buy you. That's the problem

0:50:08.760 --> 0:50:11.319
<v Speaker 4>that to me, Siakam can spin until he's left, you know,

0:50:11.360 --> 0:50:14.800
<v Speaker 4>the spin until he's dizzy. But that it's it's different.

0:50:14.880 --> 0:50:17.040
<v Speaker 4>It's just to me, that part's a little different. Now, Yeah,

0:50:17.080 --> 0:50:18.880
<v Speaker 4>he was he was missing bunnies inside because he's a

0:50:18.880 --> 0:50:20.520
<v Speaker 4>big dude and he had smaller guys on him. But

0:50:21.200 --> 0:50:24.360
<v Speaker 4>I think the Celtics are happy with that type of offense.

0:50:24.400 --> 0:50:26.480
<v Speaker 4>If that's what the Raptors have to do. I'm a

0:50:26.520 --> 0:50:28.680
<v Speaker 4>little concerned. I will say after one game. You know,

0:50:29.239 --> 0:50:31.360
<v Speaker 4>we've been here before with the raps. But the Celtics

0:50:31.440 --> 0:50:33.640
<v Speaker 4>might just be a bad matchup for this team because

0:50:33.640 --> 0:50:35.440
<v Speaker 4>they played damn good defense and that's what you got

0:50:35.480 --> 0:50:35.640
<v Speaker 4>to do.

0:50:36.360 --> 0:50:39.399
<v Speaker 5>Sure, of course, their perimeter defenders are tough, and that's

0:50:39.400 --> 0:50:41.719
<v Speaker 5>why you saw Fred van Vliet see a lot of

0:50:41.800 --> 0:50:44.040
<v Speaker 5>length and have a bad game outside. And Kyle Lowry,

0:50:44.520 --> 0:50:46.839
<v Speaker 5>I thought, yeah, he was definitely slow in the first half,

0:50:46.840 --> 0:50:48.920
<v Speaker 5>but he's not going to score a lot more than

0:50:49.239 --> 0:50:51.759
<v Speaker 5>what he got there with seventeen points. So it is

0:50:51.800 --> 0:50:53.840
<v Speaker 5>going to be up to Passcal Siaka. I'm not going

0:50:53.920 --> 0:50:56.080
<v Speaker 5>to hope for ogn and Obi to have a monstrous game.

0:50:56.200 --> 0:51:00.279
<v Speaker 5>And Norman Powell maybe yes, maybe no. Pascal Siakam is

0:51:00.400 --> 0:51:04.200
<v Speaker 5>definitely no. You wouldn't take him over Jason Tatum, no chance,

0:51:04.640 --> 0:51:08.600
<v Speaker 5>because you know Tatum is on that superstar threshold. While

0:51:08.600 --> 0:51:12.160
<v Speaker 5>Pascal Siakam it's different being a number one option in

0:51:12.160 --> 0:51:14.120
<v Speaker 5>the regular season than it is in the playoffs. It

0:51:14.400 --> 0:51:18.000
<v Speaker 5>was a it was definitely a worry. I think people

0:51:18.080 --> 0:51:20.040
<v Speaker 5>just say he's a number one option because he has

0:51:20.840 --> 0:51:23.560
<v Speaker 5>had to take that role on He's he's he's the

0:51:23.600 --> 0:51:27.080
<v Speaker 5>next logical option when Kawhi Leonard left. It's just it's

0:51:27.200 --> 0:51:30.000
<v Speaker 5>just logic but it's not it's not necessarily that he's

0:51:30.040 --> 0:51:33.520
<v Speaker 5>he's been able to, you know, to to seamlessly go

0:51:33.640 --> 0:51:36.280
<v Speaker 5>into that again. Regular season is just so much different.

0:51:36.600 --> 0:51:39.879
<v Speaker 5>But we all thought he was ready for this role

0:51:39.920 --> 0:51:42.920
<v Speaker 5>because of his growth. Just to be able to score inside.

0:51:42.960 --> 0:51:46.880
<v Speaker 5>It's definitely been a bad bubble situation. Game four against

0:51:46.880 --> 0:51:49.400
<v Speaker 5>the Nets was better his last game before the series,

0:51:49.400 --> 0:51:51.200
<v Speaker 5>so it looked like he was coming on. But yeah,

0:51:51.239 --> 0:51:54.080
<v Speaker 5>he he should be able to hit a four foot

0:51:54.080 --> 0:51:56.160
<v Speaker 5>bunny that has nothing to do with handles, that has

0:51:56.200 --> 0:52:00.239
<v Speaker 5>nothing to do with being able to square up a

0:52:00.239 --> 0:52:02.680
<v Speaker 5>guy and go buy him. It's just a buddy. So

0:52:03.160 --> 0:52:04.680
<v Speaker 5>that's where he's going to score his points. And we

0:52:04.719 --> 0:52:07.359
<v Speaker 5>saw Joel Embiid sort of shut him down last year.

0:52:07.440 --> 0:52:10.279
<v Speaker 5>A big body in the middle in Round two with

0:52:10.280 --> 0:52:13.319
<v Speaker 5>the seventy six ers and Pascal Siakam, you know, like

0:52:13.400 --> 0:52:15.759
<v Speaker 5>Fred van Vliet, like the rest of the Raptors just

0:52:15.840 --> 0:52:18.479
<v Speaker 5>plugged away and found a way to contribute deep into

0:52:18.520 --> 0:52:21.200
<v Speaker 5>the playoffs and kick. But against the Golden State Warriors

0:52:21.400 --> 0:52:22.839
<v Speaker 5>trade this is where I got to correct. You said

0:52:22.840 --> 0:52:24.759
<v Speaker 5>they won one game one in franchise history. I think

0:52:24.800 --> 0:52:27.560
<v Speaker 5>they've won three. They won two. They won two last year,

0:52:27.640 --> 0:52:28.600
<v Speaker 5>including the Warriors.

0:52:28.680 --> 0:52:31.800
<v Speaker 3>Well, I've won four. They won that Vince and Ilivison series.

0:52:31.800 --> 0:52:33.359
<v Speaker 3>I won game one of that series too, at.

0:52:33.280 --> 0:52:35.240
<v Speaker 5>Least, Well, there we go. I think that's that's probably

0:52:35.280 --> 0:52:38.239
<v Speaker 5>that's probably the extent. It's probably four, but it's not

0:52:38.360 --> 0:52:44.359
<v Speaker 5>four and twenty five years sweet, But yeah, it's not.

0:52:44.560 --> 0:52:46.759
<v Speaker 5>He wasn't born a number one guy, but just the

0:52:46.760 --> 0:52:49.880
<v Speaker 5>way he's grown, we thought he would be ready for it.

0:52:49.960 --> 0:52:53.200
<v Speaker 5>He just wasn't ready for it yesterday. And yeah, they're

0:52:53.239 --> 0:52:56.600
<v Speaker 5>a bad matchup because of the length of Shorty Fred.

0:52:56.600 --> 0:52:58.319
<v Speaker 5>He's not he's not a big man. But if there's

0:52:58.320 --> 0:53:01.320
<v Speaker 5>gonna be hands in his face the entire time, somebody

0:53:01.360 --> 0:53:05.240
<v Speaker 5>else has got to help. And you would think Paski

0:53:05.320 --> 0:53:08.160
<v Speaker 5>could do it. I think he's he's he's longer, and

0:53:08.200 --> 0:53:11.280
<v Speaker 5>he's bigger than Jalen Brown. He's not tougher than Marcus Smart.

0:53:11.360 --> 0:53:13.840
<v Speaker 5>And that's the weird part to me. I say tougher,

0:53:13.840 --> 0:53:15.880
<v Speaker 5>I mean, you can't post up Marcus Smart. Well, I

0:53:15.880 --> 0:53:18.200
<v Speaker 5>don't know why anybody tries. It's just it's you're just

0:53:18.320 --> 0:53:20.439
<v Speaker 5>it's not gonna work. Even though Pascal Siakam is bigger.

0:53:20.480 --> 0:53:22.440
<v Speaker 5>That was a weird part to me, Pascal Siakam and

0:53:22.480 --> 0:53:25.359
<v Speaker 5>Sergea Baka as well playing in the post. What are

0:53:25.360 --> 0:53:27.520
<v Speaker 5>we doing here? We're not a post team, There's just not.

0:53:27.680 --> 0:53:30.040
<v Speaker 5>And Pascal occasionally can go in the post, for sure,

0:53:30.080 --> 0:53:33.000
<v Speaker 5>but this game to me was lost. They're down twelve

0:53:33.719 --> 0:53:36.080
<v Speaker 5>end of the first half and you're you're posting up

0:53:36.080 --> 0:53:38.720
<v Speaker 5>serge of Baka. This isn't year one of serge Abaka

0:53:38.840 --> 0:53:40.960
<v Speaker 5>with the OKC thunder here trying to figure out what

0:53:41.000 --> 0:53:44.040
<v Speaker 5>he is. Uh, and then he turned it over because

0:53:44.080 --> 0:53:46.000
<v Speaker 5>it's not his game. And then it goes It's a

0:53:46.080 --> 0:53:47.719
<v Speaker 5>seventeen point game at half when it could have been

0:53:47.760 --> 0:53:50.000
<v Speaker 5>single digits. Uh, you know, not to point out one

0:53:50.000 --> 0:53:51.839
<v Speaker 5>play and say that that's what it was, but I

0:53:51.880 --> 0:53:54.960
<v Speaker 5>think this team doesn't score in the post, and it

0:53:55.000 --> 0:53:57.000
<v Speaker 5>was a It was a strange thing. Nick Nurse. Nurse

0:53:57.080 --> 0:53:58.960
<v Speaker 5>was trying with the size. I think, I think he'll

0:53:59.000 --> 0:54:01.439
<v Speaker 5>probably swing it the other way and go small soon.

0:54:01.800 --> 0:54:02.080
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:54:02.120 --> 0:54:05.080
<v Speaker 4>And again, this was a textbook sort of team effort

0:54:05.080 --> 0:54:07.160
<v Speaker 4>here from the Celtics, because you're right, no one had

0:54:07.239 --> 0:54:09.799
<v Speaker 4>like a dominant game, but everybody was just good. It

0:54:09.840 --> 0:54:12.360
<v Speaker 4>felt like smart hitting five threes and Tatum with the

0:54:12.360 --> 0:54:15.280
<v Speaker 4>twenty one. You guys said, you know, shooting fifty percent

0:54:15.320 --> 0:54:18.280
<v Speaker 4>from the floor. Brown didn't shoot well but still hit threes.

0:54:18.320 --> 0:54:22.879
<v Speaker 4>Obviously is a positive out there. Kemba totally fine. Four

0:54:22.960 --> 0:54:26.640
<v Speaker 4>threes Tice on the boards, time Lord five for five.

0:54:26.760 --> 0:54:28.839
<v Speaker 4>I mean that's big. That's found money right there, giving

0:54:28.880 --> 0:54:32.160
<v Speaker 4>them ten points used to win. Sorry, that sounds a

0:54:32.239 --> 0:54:33.359
<v Speaker 4>huge wind Melton that he had.

0:54:34.040 --> 0:54:36.719
<v Speaker 2>That was shades of Lebron spinning the ball on the

0:54:36.800 --> 0:54:38.960
<v Speaker 2>sideline against the Raptors.

0:54:39.160 --> 0:54:39.880
<v Speaker 1>How dare you?

0:54:39.920 --> 0:54:42.239
<v Speaker 4>And then not even Brad Wannamaker. Yeah, hitting a couple

0:54:42.320 --> 0:54:45.480
<v Speaker 4>threes too. They they really got contributions from basically everybody

0:54:45.520 --> 0:54:47.480
<v Speaker 4>that played in this game. So a really nice win

0:54:47.520 --> 0:54:50.080
<v Speaker 4>for the Celtics and we'll see what happens moving forward.

0:54:50.480 --> 0:54:53.400
<v Speaker 4>I'm a little concerned. I'll be honest, the Bean Town boys,

0:54:53.719 --> 0:54:55.560
<v Speaker 4>I'm gonna be wearing a green hat by the end

0:54:55.560 --> 0:54:57.640
<v Speaker 4>of this. I can see it now. Maybe that's what

0:54:57.760 --> 0:54:59.960
<v Speaker 4>that's the pick and payoff here. If the Raptors lose.

0:54:59.840 --> 0:55:02.600
<v Speaker 3>This, thet.

0:55:03.200 --> 0:55:05.960
<v Speaker 4>I have a green hat. That's a fine one. All right,

0:55:06.280 --> 0:55:08.840
<v Speaker 4>let's keep it going here. Got some news quickly thunderguard

0:55:08.840 --> 0:55:11.400
<v Speaker 4>Dennis Ruder and Rockets forward PJ. Tucker were fined twenty

0:55:11.400 --> 0:55:14.680
<v Speaker 4>five thousand dollars each after their altercation in Game five

0:55:14.760 --> 0:55:19.000
<v Speaker 4>over the weekend. NBA executive Kiki vandwe announced the punishment

0:55:19.000 --> 0:55:19.600
<v Speaker 4>on Sunday.

0:55:19.760 --> 0:55:22.239
<v Speaker 1>Kiki doesn't love it. Would you punch it?

0:55:22.520 --> 0:55:26.800
<v Speaker 4>Bead you Red Dennis Tuckers. So yeah, twenty five thousand dollars,

0:55:26.840 --> 0:55:30.280
<v Speaker 4>just a fine, no suspension, Trey, Yes, Keets.

0:55:30.320 --> 0:55:31.440
<v Speaker 1>I appreciated the tweet.

0:55:31.480 --> 0:55:33.719
<v Speaker 2>Man, A honk will get you a game, but a

0:55:33.760 --> 0:55:36.920
<v Speaker 2>punch is the twenty five thousand dollars fine ridiculous to me.

0:55:37.680 --> 0:55:41.239
<v Speaker 2>Ridiculous to me, But trust me, I would rather much

0:55:41.320 --> 0:55:45.799
<v Speaker 2>rather get honked then punched. A honk, you know, a

0:55:45.840 --> 0:55:48.040
<v Speaker 2>honk fifty to fifty It might actually feel all right,

0:55:48.080 --> 0:55:49.960
<v Speaker 2>but a punch one hundred percent that hurts.

0:55:50.480 --> 0:55:50.719
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:55:50.800 --> 0:55:52.680
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, this is a yeah, because we talked about Truder

0:55:52.680 --> 0:55:54.840
<v Speaker 4>getting a game way back when he was a rookie

0:55:54.920 --> 0:55:56.520
<v Speaker 4>with the Hawks, and he did more of a honk

0:55:56.800 --> 0:55:58.759
<v Speaker 4>sort of punch on cousins, if you want to call

0:55:58.800 --> 0:56:00.960
<v Speaker 4>it that. But the league said in the statement Truder

0:56:01.080 --> 0:56:03.720
<v Speaker 4>was fine for making contact to the groin area, Okay, duh,

0:56:03.760 --> 0:56:07.520
<v Speaker 4>And it said Tucker was fined for quote approaching Shrewder

0:56:07.600 --> 0:56:11.040
<v Speaker 4>and making contact with him in escalation of the altercation.

0:56:11.680 --> 0:56:14.200
<v Speaker 4>But that is contact with the guard did not meet

0:56:14.280 --> 0:56:16.440
<v Speaker 4>the standout for a head butt.

0:56:17.280 --> 0:56:17.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:56:18.000 --> 0:56:20.480
<v Speaker 4>So do you remember we were talking about Jiannis and

0:56:20.520 --> 0:56:23.480
<v Speaker 4>I brought up how woes he turned it? Ahead bump

0:56:24.080 --> 0:56:26.600
<v Speaker 4>not a head butt that I think is the definition

0:56:26.680 --> 0:56:27.880
<v Speaker 4>of a head bump is what PJ.

0:56:27.960 --> 0:56:29.359
<v Speaker 1>Tucker did hear? Not a head butt.

0:56:29.600 --> 0:56:30.760
<v Speaker 4>Head bump didn't get.

0:56:30.600 --> 0:56:33.319
<v Speaker 3>An Yeah, okay, good to know in future reference will

0:56:33.360 --> 0:56:36.120
<v Speaker 3>have a bump or a butt. Yes, I have to

0:56:36.120 --> 0:56:38.040
<v Speaker 3>figure it out, but I'm happy with that. I think

0:56:38.120 --> 0:56:41.799
<v Speaker 3>twenty five thousand h is fine. And you know how

0:56:41.800 --> 0:56:45.239
<v Speaker 3>many NMH MANSKEP products you could probably with eight thousand dollars.

0:56:45.320 --> 0:56:49.440
<v Speaker 1>Okay, jeez, you good for sure, especially with the discounts.

0:56:49.480 --> 0:56:52.560
<v Speaker 5>Well you have huh yeah or no dunk shirts. You

0:56:52.560 --> 0:56:54.560
<v Speaker 5>could buy a lot of no dunk shirts with fifty

0:56:54.600 --> 0:56:57.080
<v Speaker 5>thousand dollars and it goes to charity.

0:56:57.400 --> 0:57:00.520
<v Speaker 4>Damn right, no dunk dot Com, Go grab one. Yeah, tass,

0:57:00.520 --> 0:57:02.320
<v Speaker 4>you got your wish, though you were you were concerned

0:57:02.320 --> 0:57:04.600
<v Speaker 4>that if you know, Shrewder got a game, then this

0:57:04.640 --> 0:57:07.239
<v Speaker 4>thing was a wrap. At least these both guys are

0:57:07.239 --> 0:57:09.080
<v Speaker 4>going to play here as the Rockets leade the series

0:57:09.120 --> 0:57:11.399
<v Speaker 4>three too with the thunder, you know, trying to stay

0:57:11.400 --> 0:57:12.240
<v Speaker 4>alive here on Monday.

0:57:12.560 --> 0:57:15.200
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, Dennis Shreudter has been so good for okay, see

0:57:15.400 --> 0:57:18.040
<v Speaker 5>it's uh, he's been their best player, so yeah, we

0:57:18.080 --> 0:57:21.520
<v Speaker 5>definitely needed him out there. He's been smooth, he's been buttery,

0:57:21.600 --> 0:57:24.680
<v Speaker 5>he's been feathery. I love watching him play when he's

0:57:24.720 --> 0:57:27.280
<v Speaker 5>this good, and he seems to be, you know, other

0:57:27.360 --> 0:57:29.960
<v Speaker 5>than Chris Paul pulling up into the mid range, the

0:57:30.000 --> 0:57:33.360
<v Speaker 5>only guy who can really get to the rim, Shay

0:57:33.400 --> 0:57:37.560
<v Speaker 5>Gil just Alexander, your man Skeets just hasn't I don't

0:57:37.560 --> 0:57:40.360
<v Speaker 5>know who he is. He can't handle and he gets

0:57:40.360 --> 0:57:43.360
<v Speaker 5>beaten on defense when you know that's he's good at it.

0:57:43.880 --> 0:57:46.160
<v Speaker 5>I don't know what's what's going on other than this

0:57:46.440 --> 0:57:49.920
<v Speaker 5>just being his first experience here as a starter. But

0:57:49.960 --> 0:57:52.040
<v Speaker 5>he was, you know, we expected like he was with

0:57:52.080 --> 0:57:55.200
<v Speaker 5>the Clippers last year and hit hit big shots, you know,

0:57:55.240 --> 0:57:59.560
<v Speaker 5>as a supporting player. Obviously very different in his role

0:57:59.600 --> 0:58:01.840
<v Speaker 5>now he's more of a prominent guy. But I don't know,

0:58:01.840 --> 0:58:04.080
<v Speaker 5>it doesn't look like shake gild justs Alexander whatsoever.

0:58:04.160 --> 0:58:04.680
<v Speaker 1>No, he doesn't.

0:58:04.680 --> 0:58:06.440
<v Speaker 4>He's played better today for them to get this to

0:58:06.520 --> 0:58:08.160
<v Speaker 4>game seven. I think I figured it out though. I

0:58:08.200 --> 0:58:12.120
<v Speaker 4>think you can only have one Canadian dominating at a

0:58:12.120 --> 0:58:14.840
<v Speaker 4>particular time. So Jamal Murray right now has all that

0:58:14.880 --> 0:58:17.680
<v Speaker 4>the Canada power. He's got the juice. SGA is running

0:58:17.680 --> 0:58:19.439
<v Speaker 4>on empty. It's like you and I task we never

0:58:19.480 --> 0:58:20.680
<v Speaker 4>both have a great show here.

0:58:21.200 --> 0:58:23.320
<v Speaker 1>One of us is always bringing it the oh. I

0:58:23.360 --> 0:58:24.960
<v Speaker 1>mean just it's a Canadian thing. I don't know what

0:58:25.000 --> 0:58:25.240
<v Speaker 1>it is.

0:58:25.560 --> 0:58:29.880
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, you're probably right. We can't hog the spotlight. You

0:58:29.920 --> 0:58:31.920
<v Speaker 5>go ahead here, Okay, well yeah.

0:58:31.760 --> 0:58:34.000
<v Speaker 4>We'll get just set for today's two playoff games. But

0:58:34.160 --> 0:58:37.800
<v Speaker 4>first quick word from our sponsor. So listen to this

0:58:38.600 --> 0:58:41.240
<v Speaker 4>Instagram message we received last night.

0:58:41.280 --> 0:58:44.120
<v Speaker 1>This is This is a real Instagram message we received. Quote.

0:58:44.680 --> 0:58:49.280
<v Speaker 4>I just wrote my PhD thesis using Grammarly's help, and

0:58:49.320 --> 0:58:52.560
<v Speaker 4>I received a lot of compliments on my writing. English

0:58:52.800 --> 0:58:56.280
<v Speaker 4>is not my native tongue. Use this on your next ad.

0:58:56.320 --> 0:58:59.200
<v Speaker 4>Read end quote. That was a real message we got

0:58:59.240 --> 0:59:03.560
<v Speaker 4>last night from Cardo. A fantastic recommendation, very much appreciated.

0:59:04.320 --> 0:59:08.080
<v Speaker 4>Also a little funny because Ricardo accidentally spelled compliments wrong.

0:59:09.040 --> 0:59:11.480
<v Speaker 4>But that's Okay, that's okay. Probably turned off his Grammarly

0:59:11.960 --> 0:59:14.200
<v Speaker 4>and it was in ig right. You're in Instagram, you

0:59:14.240 --> 0:59:18.520
<v Speaker 4>know lesson learn. But Grammarly is the digital writing assistant

0:59:18.560 --> 0:59:21.840

<v Speaker 4>I mean, I'll take a word and I will beat

0:59:43.040 --> 0:59:46.360

<v Speaker 4>was deuce related, so we had to follow that up.

1:00:49.920 --> 1:00:52.800
<v Speaker 4>We were talking about George hills pregame routine of taking

1:00:52.840 --> 1:00:56.680
<v Speaker 4>a shit. So tonight's or today's three to the night

1:00:57.000 --> 1:00:59.920
<v Speaker 4>from last night, it's from the poop to the pit

1:01:01.440 --> 1:01:05.760
<v Speaker 4>Smith between this photo, you saw Luca drink in this

1:01:05.960 --> 1:01:10.240
<v Speaker 4>uh you know, oddly colored beverage for big hydration and

1:01:10.320 --> 1:01:14.200
<v Speaker 4>bigger taste. Reached for the cool, smooth taste of pists.

1:01:14.920 --> 1:01:20.080
<v Speaker 1>Because it does look like Luca's drinking over there, little

1:01:20.120 --> 1:01:20.760
<v Speaker 1>playoff pe.

1:01:23.880 --> 1:01:27.200
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean, because I don't know if it makes.

1:01:27.000 --> 1:01:28.760
<v Speaker 1>Apple, I mean apple juice apple.

1:01:30.200 --> 1:01:32.720
<v Speaker 3>Because he's drinking out of an aquafina bottle. Usually they

1:01:32.760 --> 1:01:35.320
<v Speaker 3>have their own water bottle, so you don't see it

1:01:35.440 --> 1:01:37.440
<v Speaker 3>like this. So yeah, what what did he just grab

1:01:37.480 --> 1:01:38.320
<v Speaker 3>that from someone else?

1:01:38.400 --> 1:01:39.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean, oh.

1:01:41.840 --> 1:01:43.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and I think as well, like you know, so

1:01:43.840 --> 1:01:45.520
<v Speaker 3>like people seem to have gotten a bit away from

1:01:45.560 --> 1:01:47.720
<v Speaker 3>the gatoray to these last few years, people are just

1:01:47.760 --> 1:01:50.240
<v Speaker 3>drinking straight water, So I don't know what. Maybe it's

1:01:50.240 --> 1:01:52.360
<v Speaker 3>some Slovenian mix that he used to drink in Europe

1:01:52.360 --> 1:01:53.080
<v Speaker 3>for really, Yeah.

1:01:53.160 --> 1:01:53.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I know.

1:01:53.720 --> 1:01:56.880
<v Speaker 4>It's it is interesting. It sort of looks like stuff

1:01:56.920 --> 1:01:59.680
<v Speaker 4>you've you know, you've consumed before in the office. Lee,

1:01:59.760 --> 1:02:02.080
<v Speaker 4>I'm not, well, I've seen you drinking stuff like that.

1:02:03.080 --> 1:02:04.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, for sure.

1:02:04.480 --> 1:02:06.400
<v Speaker 3>So and that's why I'm okay with lucat doing. I

1:02:06.400 --> 1:02:08.440
<v Speaker 3>want to try it if that's piss and he likes it,

1:02:08.800 --> 1:02:16.439
<v Speaker 3>you know, apparently, did you know? Apparently, because you lose

1:02:16.480 --> 1:02:19.120
<v Speaker 3>so many nutrients through your urination, a lot of times

1:02:19.160 --> 1:02:22.760
<v Speaker 3>boxes and fighters and stuff actually drink their piss because

1:02:22.760 --> 1:02:24.920
<v Speaker 3>they want to get those nutrients back into their body.

1:02:25.400 --> 1:02:26.680
<v Speaker 5>That's a myth. That's a myth.

1:02:27.640 --> 1:02:28.920
<v Speaker 1>I've seen I remember seeing it.

1:02:29.040 --> 1:02:31.040
<v Speaker 3>I seen it one time in a documentary and I'm like,

1:02:31.280 --> 1:02:33.080
<v Speaker 3>the guy was there and he's drinking his own piss.

1:02:34.080 --> 1:02:36.840
<v Speaker 5>Well, the myth is that like if you have no

1:02:37.000 --> 1:02:39.800
<v Speaker 5>access to water, that you can drink your own urine,

1:02:40.120 --> 1:02:42.200
<v Speaker 5>which is fine, you can to a point, but then

1:02:42.600 --> 1:02:46.680
<v Speaker 5>you I think you get poisoned basically with ammonia or

1:02:46.720 --> 1:02:51.040
<v Speaker 5>whatever it is. You wouldn't die, But no one's drinking

1:02:51.080 --> 1:02:55.480
<v Speaker 5>their piss for any other reason other else to drink.

1:02:55.520 --> 1:02:58.360
<v Speaker 3>This is from the BBC. Okay, while drinking a small

1:02:58.400 --> 1:03:00.959
<v Speaker 3>amount of urine is unlikely to be hazardous to your health,

1:03:01.040 --> 1:03:06.360
<v Speaker 3>there is always, says, not enough modern evidence, but people, people,

1:03:06.800 --> 1:03:08.320
<v Speaker 3>people still do it. I'll see it.

1:03:10.320 --> 1:03:10.640
<v Speaker 5>Okay.

1:03:10.800 --> 1:03:14.280
<v Speaker 4>We are not recommending anybody to drink your own piss. Okay,

1:03:14.400 --> 1:03:15.320
<v Speaker 4>I just want that on the reck.

1:03:15.400 --> 1:03:22.040
<v Speaker 3>What about a piss and payoff? We play like pisce roulette.

1:03:22.080 --> 1:03:24.280
<v Speaker 3>We all piss into a cup, we put it around.

1:03:26.240 --> 1:03:28.240
<v Speaker 1>Do you think you would be able to identify your

1:03:28.240 --> 1:03:30.160
<v Speaker 1>own roulette?

1:03:31.320 --> 1:03:33.000
<v Speaker 4>Did I have Asperius?

1:03:33.160 --> 1:03:34.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? Absolutely?

1:03:35.000 --> 1:03:37.479
<v Speaker 3>Then you'd be tanking though, wouldn't you if you rigged

1:03:37.520 --> 1:03:38.000
<v Speaker 3>it like that?

1:03:41.240 --> 1:03:42.640
<v Speaker 1>For sure? For sure?

1:03:42.920 --> 1:03:47.680
<v Speaker 4>All right, yeah, well we'll tune in tomorrow whether we

1:03:47.680 --> 1:03:50.960
<v Speaker 4>could complete the trifecta we had the dump. We now

1:03:51.000 --> 1:03:53.160
<v Speaker 4>have the piss. What would be the third thing I

1:03:53.200 --> 1:03:56.280
<v Speaker 4>get related blood?

1:03:57.200 --> 1:03:59.000
<v Speaker 3>There's one other there's one other thing, but I don't

1:03:59.000 --> 1:03:59.919
<v Speaker 3>think we want to talk about.

1:04:00.040 --> 1:04:03.600
<v Speaker 1>Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no, no, no, save it second.

1:04:04.120 --> 1:04:06.240
<v Speaker 4>So thank you for having tweet of the night there

<v Speaker 5>We have to doubleheader on TNT, some good ones. We

1:04:18.360 --> 1:04:23.080
<v Speaker 5>talked about Houston. Okay, see there briefly, Will Houston just

1:04:23.200 --> 1:04:26.960
<v Speaker 5>leave loud Dort open? Yes, Well, what's lou Dort gonna do?

1:04:27.120 --> 1:04:29.240
<v Speaker 5>Are they going to take loud Dort off and throwing

1:04:29.240 --> 1:04:31.880
<v Speaker 5>Dennis Shrewder there early? Bring him bring him in early

1:04:31.880 --> 1:04:35.680
<v Speaker 5>like they did in the second half. Ah, some coaching

1:04:35.720 --> 1:04:38.640
<v Speaker 5>fun there in that game, but also the earlier one.

1:04:39.200 --> 1:04:41.400
<v Speaker 5>Round two starting this is great. We got round one

1:04:41.440 --> 1:04:44.960
<v Speaker 5>and round two at the same time. Miami and Milwaukee.

1:04:45.040 --> 1:04:50.640
<v Speaker 5>Everybody's hot, tisty, very tasty. Everybody's A lot of people

1:04:50.760 --> 1:04:53.760
<v Speaker 5>are taking Miami to upset Milwaukee. I think we were

1:04:54.240 --> 1:04:57.080
<v Speaker 5>three to one trade taking Milwaukee, the other three taking

1:04:57.080 --> 1:05:01.040
<v Speaker 5>Miami in the series. Jeez, just can't wait. Can't wait

1:05:01.080 --> 1:05:02.640
<v Speaker 5>for ant thirty Eastern start.

1:05:03.440 --> 1:05:05.680
<v Speaker 4>I know, I love that there's no d games anymore.

1:05:05.960 --> 1:05:09.440
<v Speaker 1>You got those nightcaps for us. Also, the heat.

1:05:09.240 --> 1:05:11.720
<v Speaker 4>Haven't played in like a week, right, It's been been

1:05:11.760 --> 1:05:13.520
<v Speaker 4>a long time, so I mean, I wonder if that

1:05:13.520 --> 1:05:17.320
<v Speaker 4>affects them at all, because they swept. Obviously, Bucks had

1:05:17.320 --> 1:05:19.560
<v Speaker 4>to go another game and we had the break and

1:05:19.600 --> 1:05:21.200
<v Speaker 4>play there, so I think it's been a while, so

1:05:21.240 --> 1:05:21.600
<v Speaker 4>we'll see.

1:05:21.600 --> 1:05:22.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm excited.

1:05:22.120 --> 1:05:24.600
<v Speaker 4>You're right, I'm excited for that series to start, Heat Bucks,

1:05:24.600 --> 1:05:26.000
<v Speaker 4>and then we'll see if we get a game seven.

1:05:26.040 --> 1:05:30.040
<v Speaker 4>Any any predictions, Lee, Uh, let's say.

1:05:30.440 --> 1:05:34.200
<v Speaker 3>The thun to drag it at to seven. And let's

1:05:34.240 --> 1:05:36.880
<v Speaker 3>say let's say the Hate get this one started to

1:05:36.880 --> 1:05:38.440
<v Speaker 3>get a really spicy.

1:05:39.400 --> 1:05:44.840
<v Speaker 4>Someone's full of piss and vinegar. I'm very exciting.

1:05:44.960 --> 1:05:48.360

1:05:48.360 --> 1:05:52.080
<v Speaker 2>to drink Budweiser because it tastes like piss, And now

1:05:52.120 --> 1:05:55.240
<v Speaker 2>you're just volunteering to drink other people's piss.

1:05:55.400 --> 1:05:57.960
<v Speaker 3>I would rather drink other people's pists than Budwiser. I'll

1:05:57.960 --> 1:05:58.600
<v Speaker 3>say that much.

1:06:00.560 --> 1:06:02.520
