1
00:00:01,160 --> 00:00:15,720
Speaker 1: The volume. What's up, guys, it's Sloan and this is

2
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:18,880
Speaker 1: another episode of Slow Notes, except for this time it's

3
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:22,560
Speaker 1: just me by myself. Yes, I know my nail fell

4
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:25,040
Speaker 1: off today at school. Please ignore my hand. I'm gonna

5
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:27,760
Speaker 1: be holding the mic really awkwardly. But that's a sorry

6
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 1: for another day. Okay, let's get started with my MBA

7
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:37,519
Speaker 1: in season tournament predictions. So when we look at the

8
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:40,280
Speaker 1: bracket and the West, we have the Thunder which are

9
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:42,600
Speaker 1: the one seed, and the MAVs, which are the fourth seed.

10
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,640
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna go with the Thunder for that one.

11
00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 1: I feel like it's a given. The Thunder have been

12
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 1: pretty dominant this season and they're the one seed. They've

13
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:53,680
Speaker 1: been doing well in the tournament, so I'm going for them.

14
00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:57,520
Speaker 1: Next up, we have the Warriors and the Rockets. You

15
00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,280
Speaker 1: guys know, the Warriors could be playing anyone. I would

16
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 1: pick the Warriors, but I actually believe that the Warriors

17
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 1: will beat the Rockets in the Ncason Tournament. And here's why.

18
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 1: The Warriors just beat the Rockets without Steph and without Draymond,

19
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 1: and I think that that really says something. Jonathan Kminga

20
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 1: went off. He had his season high career high. Excuse me,

21
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 1: thirty three points. Andrew Wiggins I believe had twenty six points.

22
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 1: It's really good to see. I saw something interesting from

23
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:26,400
Speaker 1: Shams where he said the Warriors are looking for a

24
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,960
Speaker 1: star and that player could be on another team, or

25
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,400
Speaker 1: it could be Jonathan Kaminga, which I thought was cool.

26
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 1: I think it's interesting that the Warriors' front office really

27
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 1: believes that Jonathan Kminga could really be that good and

28
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 1: he's really starting to show sign So thirty three point game,

29
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:43,720
Speaker 1: that's what we want to see from JK. We really

30
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: want him to be the second leading scorer after Steph.

31
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 1: Now let's go to the East. We have the Knicks

32
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 1: playing the Hawks. I'm definitely going to take the Knicks.

33
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 1: I think they're rolling. I think any game at MSG,

34
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 1: especially with a playoff type crowd, that's gonna be a

35
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 1: win for New York. And yeah, I think the Big

36
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 1: Bodega is gonna go off. I love that nickname. I

37
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,079
Speaker 1: know no one else picked that up, but I love

38
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:11,920
Speaker 1: the Big Bodega. I think we should make that a thing.

39
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 1: All right. Then the last game is the Magic and

40
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 1: the Bucks. So what's interesting about this one is the

41
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:21,800
Speaker 1: Bucks or the number one seed in the in season

42
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 1: tournament in the Magic or the number four seed, but

43
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,959
Speaker 1: in the regular season rankings, the Magic are ranked above

44
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,359
Speaker 1: the Bucks. That's one of the reasons I'm gonna take

45
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 1: the Magic. The other reason is since the day Damian

46
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,519
Speaker 1: Lillard was traded to the Bucks, I have never had

47
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 1: faith in the Bucks defense ever. Pallo he can get

48
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 1: by them pretty easily, and that's why I'm taking the Magic. Okay, sorry,

49
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 1: I may have some bias here, but like I said,

50
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 1: the Thunder and the Warriors are gonna make it to

51
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 1: the semi finals. And you know, I'm in Dubbs gurly.

52
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 1: I think we've played the Thunder I believe, twice this

53
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 1: season and we're one and one. But we're gonna make

54
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 1: it to him one this time. And then with the East,

55
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,080
Speaker 1: I have the Knicks definitely beating the Magic and the

56
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,680
Speaker 1: Warriors winning. It all pretty exciting and that would be cool.

57
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:11,640
Speaker 1: That'd be good for the NBA. Let me tell you,

58
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 1: to have the two winners of the n Season Tournament

59
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 1: last year have been lebron In this season would have

60
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 1: been Seph Curry. That'd be cool. I'm excited to see

61
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 1: how that goes, all right, now we're gonna talk about

62
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 1: the Rookie of the Month awards. So the two Rookie

63
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 1: of the Month awards went to Jared McCain and Jalen Wells. Surprisingly,

64
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 1: Dalton connect did not get the award, and neither did

65
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 1: Stephen Castle. Jared deserves it through and through. Jalen has

66
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 1: been great for the Grizzlies this season. But I think

67
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 1: Dalton got it, especially for this month. I mean this

68
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 1: month has been his month. This was last month. I

69
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 1: think that's Jalen's award. But for the month of November,

70
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 1: Dalton had himself a time. I mean, he was everything

71
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,119
Speaker 1: that he was shooting was going in, which was really

72
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 1: good to see. I'm sure Lakers fans are happy about that.

73
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 1: I mean, coming off a forty point blowoff, it's nice

74
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 1: to see. And Lebron on maybe being on his downfall.

75
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 1: I don't want to say anything too much, right but

76
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: Lebron has not had a great month. Seeing a promising

77
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 1: rookie have a performance performances like that, it's nice to

78
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 1: see if you're a Lakers fan. All right, So now

79
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,840
Speaker 1: we're gonna move on to the slow nose drip ladder.

80
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna be shown some league fits outfits and

81
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 1: I'm gonna rank them, so let's get into it. Okay,

82
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:29,840
Speaker 1: So first off, we got JT with a clean fit.

83
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,600
Speaker 1: I'm loving this. It's a chill fit, it's a cozy fit,

84
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 1: but it's clean. I think I'm gonna give it an

85
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 1: eight out of ten. It's not special, but it's green

86
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 1: like the Celtics. I'm actually I'm a big monochrome person.

87
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 1: I always wear monochrome sweatsuits to school, so I really

88
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,760
Speaker 1: like that look for Jt' only problem with this outfit,

89
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 1: which is a really big pet peeve of mine, is

90
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 1: I hate when I'm wearing a sweater or a sweatshirt

91
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,040
Speaker 1: and like the shirt is showing underneath. But that may

92
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:56,839
Speaker 1: just be in this photo. But otherwise, eight out of

93
00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 1: ten good fit for JT. Green, Celtics vibes love it. Okay.

94
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:05,279
Speaker 1: Next up, we have a bolt bull bull fit to

95
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 1: say the least, so we have the white and blue

96
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 1: Brazil jersey with black leather shorts. So I see he

97
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 1: did the you know, the sandwich method here because he

98
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 1: got his jersey matching his shoes and his socks, which

99
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 1: I like. That's nice, but I definitely would have used

100
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 1: maybe like a baggy jean or some other vibe. The

101
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 1: the leather shorts are bold, bold, you know what I'm saying. Okay,

102
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:31,840
Speaker 1: So for that reason, I'm gonna give this fit a

103
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:33,839
Speaker 1: six out of ten. I get the vision with the jersey,

104
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 1: I get the vision with the shoes, and I like

105
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 1: the shorts. Maybe if he paired it with a nice blazer,

106
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,920
Speaker 1: going back to the monochrome vibe, but not together. That's

107
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 1: not a look. Wow. Okay, I just got blinded when

108
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 1: I swiped to this shade fit. All blue is not

109
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 1: really what I meant by I like monochrome, and I

110
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,279
Speaker 1: love Shay. I love Shay and I love his fits,

111
00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:55,359
Speaker 1: but this is a lot. And what's interesting is that

112
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 1: the pants are like a different blue than the sweatshirt,

113
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 1: and the shoes are also a different It's definitely got

114
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 1: to look to it. It's Shay, he has his aura.

115
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 1: I do really like the jeans and I liked it

116
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,760
Speaker 1: the sweaters a little crop, but not my favorite fit.

117
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,719
Speaker 1: This is a lot going on anyways, Shae has aura.

118
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: I like his fits, but this one don't love. I'm

119
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 1: gonna give this a seven point five out of ten. Okay.

120
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: JC Jordan Clarkson. I I'm I'm a little confused. I've

121
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 1: I've not received the I don't I don't understand the

122
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 1: vision here. I'm gonna give this like a four out

123
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:34,720
Speaker 1: of ten. And there's just way too much going on.

124
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:36,840
Speaker 1: He looked. I mean, he makes it work, but there's

125
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 1: just way too much going on. Wow, louke dor clean

126
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,440

Speaker 1: wear it like it looks good on lou but like

128
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 1: I would wear that, like I would wear that to

Speaker 1: dinner with my friends. I mean, goy r bag dream

00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 1: He makes this look good. I like this fit a lot, clean, calm,

134
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,840
Speaker 1: nothing too busy. And yeah, I'm gonna get this one

135
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 1: an eight out of ten as well. That's all for slow,

136
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 1: no strip. You know this is new. Let me know

137
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 1: if you like this out in the comet. Now we're

138
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 1: gonna move on to some exciting news. The Curry brand

139
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 1: has signed Quincy Oliveri to a shoe deal. So now

140
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 1: the Curry Brand consists of Steph, Darren Fox, and Quincy.

141
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: It is so cool to see someone live their dream.

142
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 1: I'm here at seventeen years old. I feel like I'm

143
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 1: living my dream getting to do this, getting to talk

144
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 1: for you guys and getting the interview NBA players, and

145
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 1: I know how special that can feel. So I'm so

146
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 1: happy for Quincy that he gets to do this. You know,

147
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 1: we all know Steph was his idol. There's pictures of

148
00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 1: him wearing Steph curry Jersey's at such a young age.

149
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,040
Speaker 1: He says he always plays two K with him. To

150
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 1: now be under his shoe deal must be an incredible feeling.

151
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 1: So that's really exciting. Now. Quincy's good, he is. We

152
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 1: saw him really go off in Summer League. But my

153
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 1: question is he's a two way player right now. He's

154
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 1: playing games in the G League. So the Curry brand

155
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 1: really took a gamble on making a shoe deal with him.

156
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 1: That's a lot of money that usually goes to a

157
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 1: bigger player. But you know what it says to me

158
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 1: that Steph sees something in Quincy, which is what I

159
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:34,560
Speaker 1: like to see. He sees future. He sees that Quincy

160
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,960
Speaker 1: isn't just an underdog he can really be that guy,

161
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,920
Speaker 1: which is cool. I like that. I'm excited to see

162
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 1: more to come for Quincy and the Curry brand. Okay,

163
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 1: this is random, and I don't know if people will

164
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:49,560
Speaker 1: relate to this, but I have this thing that wherever

165
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,719
Speaker 1: whenever I go to NBA games, players always stick out

166
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:54,959
Speaker 1: to me that don't stick out to me on TV,

167
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 1: meaning there's players that I think that you can really

168
00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,840
Speaker 1: only grasp how good they are you're in the arena.

169
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 1: I was in Miami over Thanksgiving break visiting my grandparents,

170
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 1: and I went to the Miami Heat Toronto Raptors game.

171
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:10,679
Speaker 1: Scotty Barnes wasn't the player who stuck out to me.

172
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 1: Jimmy Butler wasn't the player who stuck out to me

173
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 1: Tyler hero Bam about no, no, no. It was Yakub Pertle. Yeah,

174
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 1: Yakub Pertle. He stuck out to me. Let me tell you.

175
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 1: He's been averaging sixteen points eleven boards this season for

176
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:30,200
Speaker 1: the Raptors, which great numbers in themselves, but watching him play,

177
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,880
Speaker 1: I was blown away. He is the most one of

178
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:36,080
Speaker 1: the most consistent players I've ever watched in person. He's

179
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 1: been in the league for about eight nine years now

180
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:42,599
Speaker 1: and he's still doing his thing. He's unbelievably efficient. I

181
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:46,680
Speaker 1: believe he shoots around fifty five percent from field goal range,

182
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 1: which is eighth best in the league. But he rarely

183
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:54,720
Speaker 1: missed and was so dominant on the boards. He's very underrated,

184
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 1: and I think that that should be people's new answer

185
00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 1: when they say he's the most underrated player in the league.

186
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,920
Speaker 1: Out yaka Perdle. Yeah, come on, slow Noes, it's gonna

187
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,640
Speaker 1: be It would be a fun time, all right. Lastly,

188
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 1: I want to talk about the Phoenix Suns. So the

189
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 1: Phoenix Suns are eighteen and nine. Okay, they're eleven and

190
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 1: two when Kevin Durant plays, and they're one and seven

191
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:21,959
Speaker 1: when he doesn't. I don't want to make too big

192
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,679
Speaker 1: of a claim, but can Devin Booker and Bradley Beale

193
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:26,600
Speaker 1: not do by themselves? Do they really need Katie? That

194
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 1: does say something a little something to me about Devin

195
00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 1: Booker's legacy at this point. He's a little bit of

196
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:32,440
Speaker 1: a vet. I think he should be able to be

197
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,560
Speaker 1: doing this himself. But it also talks about the longevity

198
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 1: and consistency of Kevin Durant and shows really how great

199
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 1: of a player and a score that he is. I've

200
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:43,680
Speaker 1: always loved Katie and I think that this is a

201
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 1: really cool thing to see. I'm rooting for him. I'm

202
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:49,240
Speaker 1: rooting for the Sons to do well. But what's interesting

203
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 1: is the Sons have depth. Josh so Kog, Grayson Allen,

204
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,240
Speaker 1: they do have depth. So to see that, really, kad

205
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 1: is that glue guy is interesting. It's like Draymond two

206
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,079
Speaker 1: point zero. You know, Beau Dram wants the number one

207
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 1: glue guy of all time. Anyway, guys, that was my

208
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 1: Slow Nose by Myself for today. I hoped you liked

209

Speaker 1: it and I hope you have fun and you guys

210
