Speaker 2: No Bunts with Task and Joel dissecting the errand Judge

20
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 2: quote unquote cheating controversy.

21
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 1: We got a real beef in baseball. It's a baseball beef.

22
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,119
Speaker 1: Last two nights, yelling managers, yelling, one manager saying shut up,

23
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 1: fat boy. Did Judge cheat? I don't really think so

24
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 1: at all. It's baseball, you steal signals. Anyways, that was

25
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:27,960
Speaker 1: a fun one with Joel. We also built our own

26
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 1: custom stadiums and a little fun draft JD. Joel and I.

27
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 1: JD called me out from the beginning because I rigged

28
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:36,160
Speaker 1: the draft a little bit. Whatever.

29
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 3: Oh good, but he's doing it all right.

30
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,480
Speaker 2: We'll go check that out, no bunts. It's up on

31
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 2: the Athletic Baseball Show feed on YouTube and wherever you

32
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 2: download and listen to podcasts. But we got lots to

33
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 2: tackle here. We got an NBA draft lottery to get into.

34
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 2: Doc Rivers was fired a day later than we thought

35
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 2: Bud he was. And of course we've got Game one

36
00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 2: of the Western Conference Finals, which we start with Jokich

37
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 2: leading the Nuggets past the Lakers one thirty two to

38
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 2: one twenty six in a very entertaining Game one of

39
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 2: the Western Conference Finals.

40
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 1: Well start with the fact that, yes, it was entertaining.

41
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 1: It felt like the Nuggets were going to run away

42
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 1: with this thing. It almost feels like the Lakers won

43
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 1: in a way. That's what I leave this game feeling,

44
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 1: not that they won, but so because it felt like

45
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 1: it was a done it was a blowout kind of

46
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 1: feeling with Jokic running over everything, and then the Lakers

47
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 1: figuring something out with taking ad off Jokic to be

48
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 1: that roamer that was so great in the first couple rounds.

49
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:34,959
Speaker 1: I didn't think there would be anyone that they could

50
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 1: take him or put him on to be that roamer.

51
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 1: But they put him on the guy who shoots the

52
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:43,799
Speaker 1: fewest threes in Aaron Gordon and Ruyachi Mura. That was

53
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 1: a pickup to guard nikolay Okich. So it feels like

54
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 1: they figured something out there. I know, you guys, you

55
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 1: guys rolled your eyes when I said it feels like

56
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:52,720
Speaker 1: the Lakers.

57
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:54,800
Speaker 3: I think I think the stream team Lakers fans are

58
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 3: getting to your tasks. You just said the Lakers won

59
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 3: a game that they lost.

60
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 1: I didn't say that, but I said it felt it

61
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 1: felt like yeah. I mean, after the Jokic was bringing

62
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:07,080
Speaker 1: up the ball. It was awesome throughout the first half,

63
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: and they stopped that by putting a smaller guy on him.

64
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,920
Speaker 1: And I mean they were phenomenal, seventy two points in

65
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 1: that first half, Jokic doing what he did, and I

66
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 1: mean I thought Yokic could have even been better. At listen,

67
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 1: I took the Nuggets in this series. They stole Game one,

68
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 1: but in the loss, does that not feel like the

69
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:30,519
Speaker 1: Lakers can pinpoint some things like Lebron going at smaller guys,

70
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 1: Lebron picking his guys. I think he felt like he

71
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 1: can go at Jokic. I just want this to be

72
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 1: a series, Trey, That's all I'm saying. I just want

73
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 1: this to be a series. And it does it not

74
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 1: feel like it's fairly even at this point?

75
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 2: Well, they both they can't stop each other, there's that part. Yeah. Absolutely,

76
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 2: I don't think Rui Jachimura is the Yokic stopper. I'll

77
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 2: say that right now. Slick move. It worked for a

78
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 2: couple of possessions ad roaming, like you said, a couple turnovers,

79
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 2: but I'd love to see them try that for an

80
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 2: entire game and watch Jokich absolutely abuse him and you'll

81
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 2: have you'll have counters from the Nuggets Malone. There was

82
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 2: even some in this game that they even tried after

83
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 2: that switch of Ruy on Jokic, where you're right eighties

84
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 2: roaming because he's not worried about Aaron Gordon. But then

85
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 2: they had Aaron Gordon send like a backscreen to open

86
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 2: KCP and that worked and he missed on a three

87
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 2: and stuff like that. But yeah, this is gonna be

88
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:22,039
Speaker 2: entertaining because both these teams can score in bunches here.

89
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 2: But Yokic was a monster.

90
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 3: In game, just a monster. I feel a little rebound

91
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 3: inflation definitely for Nicola jokicch thirty four points, twenty one rebounds.

92
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,159
Speaker 3: I would love to see him broken down by rebound

93
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 3: chances because there's so many times when he's just playing volleyball.

94
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,560
Speaker 3: Yeah at the rim, which is how you get to

95
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,159
Speaker 3: six offensive rebounds. Sometimes he's getting two or three on

96
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 3: a possession. But man, that's like the definition of basketball

97
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 3: out there. That was awesome. That was, I don't know,

98
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 3: maybe the best game of the playoffs so far, just

99
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,799
Speaker 3: the way they were going back and forth the second quarter.

100
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,600
Speaker 3: It felt like every single play was a highlight on

101
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,600
Speaker 3: either end of the court. Like Anthony Davis stuffed Jokic

102
00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 3: on a jumper, it looked like a Wilt Chamberlain block

103
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:00,719
Speaker 3: that you would see if the photo was in black

104
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:03,480
Speaker 3: and white. How stretched out he was to get to Jokic.

105
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 3: It was incredible, and really the difference came down to,

106
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 3: like Yokic hitting a miracle shot and Jamal Murray hitting

107
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,360
Speaker 3: a miracle shot, and that was the split in the game.

108
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,719
Speaker 3: Here as a six point game. That was five points

109
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 3: right there. But it was really a tail of two

110
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,559
Speaker 3: halves from a pace perspective. For the most part, first

111
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,600
Speaker 3: half was complete Nuggets mode, end to end basketball. They

112
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 3: really took advantage of the altitude. I feel like it's

113
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 3: hard to beat them in a game. One seventeen to

114
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,839
Speaker 3: six lead for Denver and fast break points in the

115
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 3: first half, sixteen to eight, second chance points, thirty to

116
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 3: twenty four points in the paint, the compost crew, they

117
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:38,720
Speaker 3: came through up in the energy, getting back and forth.

118
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 3: That was perfect Denver Nuggets basketball. The second half it

119
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,280
Speaker 3: was Lakers mode, bullyball. They really controlled the pace with

120
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 3: Lebron hunting down Jamal Murray and getting into the post

121
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,239
Speaker 3: so many times. They flipped the fast break points seven

122
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 3: to two for the Lakers. Second chance points it was

123
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,320
Speaker 3: over for the Nuggets, five to two for the Lakers.

124
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 3: They started scoring in the paint because Lebron was there

125
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 3: every time. Twenty four to twenty for the Lakers. D'Angelo

126
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:00,719
Speaker 3: Russell didn't play very much. We saw a little bit

127
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 3: more Jared Vanderbilt we saw a lot more Ruye Hachimura.

128
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 3: It was awesome. It was like we saw in game

129
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:10,039
Speaker 3: adjustments from both teams in game one of the playoffs. Yes,

130
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 3: it was.

131
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:11,920
Speaker 4: It was just that's how you do it.

132
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 3: That's how That's why we go through eighty two games

133
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 3: of players resting of MVP debates in March to see

134
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,280
Speaker 3: the two awesome teams go head to head and all

135
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 3: of their stars play well. Everybody played well in this game, Yes,

136
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 3: Super D'Angelo, Russell, pretty much.

137
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 2: A lot of guys. So I love the big man battle.

138
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,599
Speaker 2: That was tremendous television. You said that that block that

139
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 2: eighty had on Yokich, the little baby hook, and then

140
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 2: a few possessions later Yokic spinning baseline on Ad and

141
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 2: doing the quick dunk. I mean they were just going

142
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 2: back and forth there stattitudes with a crazy stat Yoll

143
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 2: Kitchen Ad the first pair of opposing starting centers to

144
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 2: score at least thirty points in the same playoff game

145
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,599
Speaker 2: since a chem Elijah On and Shack back in nineteen

146
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 2: ninety five. So Yo kicch with the Monster line his

147
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,800
Speaker 2: sixth triple double of the playoffs thirty four points, twenty

148
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,080
Speaker 2: one boards, fourteen assists.

149
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 4: And then ad not bad either, forty and ten.

150
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 3: I couldn't believe he had forty when I looked at

151
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,480
Speaker 3: the box score again this morning. What, Yeah, he never

152
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 3: missed a shot. It felt like he had so many floaters.

153
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, And that's why, I guess, going back to your

154
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,560
Speaker 2: initial point test, you have Lakers fans going, well, the

155
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 2: Nuggets aren't gonna play that well, They're not gonna shoot

156
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 2: that well again, and then Nuggets fans, I think rightfully

157
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 2: also saying the same thing. Oh, it's a d that's

158
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 2: probably eighty best game. Maybe that's his best game we

159
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 2: see in the entire series. Here, the old bron had

160
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 2: a good game. He barely missed. Reeves had a great

161
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 2: game getting them back into it. Hotcha Murray was awesome. Like,

162
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 2: so it's like both both sides are saying, yeah, you're

163
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 2: not gonna do that again.

164
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 3: Both teams ain't shooting fifty five percent, probably not for

165
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,559
Speaker 3: the entire series, probably, but man, that was that was awesome,

166
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,760
Speaker 3: and the difference was just a little bit better shot

167
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:51,080
Speaker 3: making from the Nuggets. Uh. Going forward, I think the

168
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 3: Lakers can't start small. I thought that was really a

169
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:55,560
Speaker 3: problem for them in the first half, coming out with

170
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 3: Shrewder in the starting lineup, and they got killed on

171
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 3: the glass because the Nuggets have really good size basically everywhere.

172
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,480
Speaker 3: MPJ he's six foot ten. The guy had two blocks

173
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:07,239
Speaker 3: last night on the Little rear View contests. He's become

174
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 3: a solid defender, and we saw so many times he's

175
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 3: just shooting right over the top of Austin Reefs like

176
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 3: Reeves is in his shorts, but it looks like MPJ

177
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 3: is still a foot ahead of him, above him shooting

178
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 3: the jumpers. Ksep he's six y five. He's got a

179
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:21,360
Speaker 3: six to eight wingspan. Big guy Aaron Gordon six foot eight,

180
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,080
Speaker 3: he can jump out of the gym. They just got

181
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 3: a lot of guys who are pretty sizable, which is

182
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 3: why I was smart that ruly Hatchamura played a lot

183
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 3: more in the second half.

184
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, what the Lakers do is they make you play

185
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: your game, and that's what happened in the second half.

186
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 1: They slowed everything down. And that's what I would be

187
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 1: concerned about if I was the Denver Nuggets. It's not

188
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 1: so much that Yokich would kill them in the half

189
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,960
Speaker 1: quarter for restarting. He would he'd pick people apart that's

190
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 1: what he would do, but he wouldn't be able to

191
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:48,960
Speaker 1: bring the ball up like he was in the first half.

192
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 1: I don't think Ruy would just be on him and

193
00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 1: be able to pick his pocket. So they just wouldn't

194
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 1: play the same way. That's why they looked incredible. Jokich

195
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 1: was their point guard and they're running it down their throats.

196
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 1: One the Lakers can make, I don't know, get back

197
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:05,959
Speaker 1: on defense. I may play better in the transition, and

198
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 1: I think that's just something they have to do. But

199
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,600
Speaker 1: I just wonder if it's a combination of starting Jared

200
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:16,239
Speaker 1: Vanderbilt and just putting him on Nikola Jokic or Ruyachimur

201
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 1: just guys that can steal the ball and not allow

202
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 1: Jokic to to do what he does. And then the

203
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,839
Speaker 1: Lakers feel like they win the game almost just because

204
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,679
Speaker 1: you're playing their game, and they slow it down and

205
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 1: get to more of the dissecting the matchups, picking the

206
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 1: matchups like Lebron going pick a roll and getting Jamal

207
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,319
Speaker 1: Murray on the switch that I'm alone encountered out a

208
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 1: little bit, but it was pretty frickin late. He has

209
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:38,680
Speaker 1: a three point game at the end of this game,

210
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:42,200
Speaker 1: it was nearly a win here for the Lakers, so

211
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 1: the Nuggets have to counter that better. And Lebron was

212
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 1: feeling comfortable in that matchup. But I wonder, yeah, if

213
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:52,720
Speaker 1: that if that just changes the Nuggets offense that that

214
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 1: that move. I don't know, it's in half court. It

215
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,520
Speaker 1: would be a problem a Rui or Jared Vanderbilt, no doubt.

216
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,959
Speaker 1: But you're a win. It's a win if Anthony Davis

217
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 1: is roaming, so they have to have to slow him

218
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 1: them down. Yeah, they take a chance on that. I think.

219
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:13,280
Speaker 1: I think Darvinham has got no problems starting a Vanderbilt probably.

220
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,319
Speaker 2: I would say, do you think Garvin Ham will do

221
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 2: that in Game two here right from the jump, being

222
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,439
Speaker 2: a Rui or Vanderbilt more size like you were saying.

223
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 3: Yes, definitely, I think one of the two will be starting.

224
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 3: It could be Vanderbilt because maybe then you keep Hatchamura's

225
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:27,559
Speaker 3: punch off the bench. But I think Ruy has a

226
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 3: much better choice to play heavy minutes in this series

227
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,560
Speaker 3: than Jared Vanderbilt, just because of the offense stuff. And

228
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know, we'll see how Ruy hangs

229
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 3: against Jokich going forward. He did a really good job.

230
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 3: He's big enough and strong enough that he can at

231
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 3: least stay in front of him and put up some

232
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,960
Speaker 3: resistance until Anthony Davis is able to influence the shot

233
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,560
Speaker 3: as well. But my guess is that Jokich and Malone

234
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 3: will be ready for it in game two.

235
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 2: Right right, you would think so?

236
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think Jokic can just shoot more. I mean

237
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 1: I thought he was overpassing even in this game. He

238
00:10:57,480 --> 00:10:59,439
Speaker 1: was getting cute. Yeah, he had thirty four. A few

239
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:00,600
Speaker 1: in the fourth court, definitely.

240
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 3: Yeah.

241
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:04,320
Speaker 1: Even even earlier, I thought like seventeen shots, eight free

242
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 1: throws to get to his thirty four points. The dude

243
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,560
Speaker 1: could have shot twenty five times. How many cute little

244
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 1: tosses to the rim? Was he trying to get somebody

245
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 1: a lob? Five turnovers for him? I think he could

246
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 1: have dominated even more. In all honestly, he is the

247
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:22,320
Speaker 1: best player out there. It is weird he had thirty four.

248
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 1: Davis has forty, but he outplayed his ass with the

249
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:27,840
Speaker 1: way he was Everything was going through him. So if

250
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,200
Speaker 1: you just get the ball out of his hands, that's

251
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 1: what that's the Lakers job. That's a win. I think

252
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,439
Speaker 1: if you have to just start a new guy, they

253
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 1: have more skill and more talent out there. It's weird

254
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:40,319
Speaker 1: to say with a Lebron on the other side, but

255
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:41,920
Speaker 1: then I guess have that, and so just getting it

256
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 1: out of his hands would be the victory I think.

257
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 1: But yeah, I think he could have had He could

258
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 1: have had fifty if he just wanted to shoot more.

259
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:50,440
Speaker 1: He was a magic man out there.

260
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,079
Speaker 2: Two hundred and fifty eight combined points A hell of

261
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 2: a lot of points for a conference finals game here

262
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 2: when you get to the really good teams that are

263
00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:59,720
Speaker 2: usually pretty good at defense. It's the highest scoring conference

264
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:03,680
Speaker 2: final game that didn't go to overtime since nineteen eighty seven,

265
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 2: when the Pistons crushed the Celtics one forty five, one

266
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 2: to nineteen. So a lot of points scored. Jamal Murray

267
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:11,679
Speaker 2: had thirty one in this game, and it's like sort

268
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 2: of overlooked. I thought he was pretty special though, at

269
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 2: the end of the first half when he went on

270
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 2: like that little flurry there he hit three basically eighteen

271
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 2: foot jumpers in like seventy five seconds. Then he hit

272
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:26,079
Speaker 2: a couple threes to start the second half, which obviously

273
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 2: we're pretty instrumental. When you get into the final score

274
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 2: of this game. There were so many times where like

275
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:34,720
Speaker 2: Dennis Schreuder was just going, Yeah, what do you want?

276
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:35,600
Speaker 2: What do we do?

277
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:36,959
Speaker 4: I don't know what am I doing here?

278
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 2: What are we doing? He did that so many times.

279
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:40,200
Speaker 2: You go back and watch his game. There's like so

280
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,800
Speaker 2: many possessions. That end was Shreuter going, I don't know

281
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 2: his arms out and he's got why he should go

282
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:44,960
Speaker 2: on under screen?

283
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:45,160
Speaker 1: Right?

284
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,080
Speaker 3: Why am I going under screens against Jamal Murray Let

285
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:48,679
Speaker 3: me fight over the top, which he started doing.

286
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:51,200
Speaker 2: Yep, yep, that's it. That's definitely should be a change.

287
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 2: They're smart's I mean murray Man when he gets it going, okay,

288
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,160
Speaker 2: guy's in the zone the way he like the way

289
00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,440
Speaker 2: he just floats backwards and it looks like he's like

290
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:02,360
Speaker 2: gonna hit the ground before he releases his jumper, especially

291
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:04,800
Speaker 2: when he touches paint and then does his little fade away.

292
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:07,080
Speaker 2: He like shoots it right at the last second. But yeah,

293
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:08,080
Speaker 2: everybody was scoring in this one.

294
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,320
Speaker 1: He's important in every and we do overlook him for sure.

295
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,599
Speaker 1: I like how Michael Malone challenged a play so a

296
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:15,319
Speaker 1: fello wouldn't be called on Jokich, it would be called

297
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. It wouldn't be called on Murray, would be

298
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 1: called on Jokic midway through the fourth. Smart little maneuver there.

299
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,680
Speaker 1: Coaches just using their challenges real quick at midway through

300
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 1: the fourth.

301
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 4: I loved it.

302
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,320
Speaker 1: It is a chess match already, as you said, Trey,

303
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 1: the adjustments are already happening and Lebron. I think it's

304
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,840
Speaker 1: a good sign for the Lakers. It definitely felt like, Yeah,

305
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 1: he didn't misshot. He was nine to sixteen in this one.

306
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,400
Speaker 1: The three balls still not there for him, that's the

307
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,319
Speaker 1: worry some part. But he was picking his spots and

308
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,280
Speaker 1: I think he is fairly comfortable going at Jokic win.

309
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 1: He gets ahead of Steam going, so that's a good sign.

310
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 1: He was on the offensive glass and all that.

311
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:54,440
Speaker 2: Well. He had a three that could have tied it

312
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 2: right pretty late and not very close, and he had

313
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 2: the old Lebron smirk, was like, uh yeah, I mean

314
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,520
Speaker 2: he felt like if I hit that, were wined this game.

315
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,599
Speaker 3: But yeah, cal shot, he should have went to the rim. Yeah, Like,

316
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 3: I mean, he was unstoppable at the hoop, but he

317
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:10,520
Speaker 3: went to the hoop the next time and turned the

318
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 3: ball over.

319
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:11,040
Speaker 2: Yeah.

320
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 3: Nice. Played by Jamal Murray on that one. I think

321
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:16,600
Speaker 3: the key for the Nuggets is they just shouldn't switch

322
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 3: as much. They shouldn't give it up so easily. They

323
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,960
Speaker 3: were definitely trying to fight it with like your scram

324
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,520
Speaker 3: switches and whatever. But you want Aaron Gordon on Lebron

325
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:27,240
Speaker 3: as much as possible. So I think that's probably gonna

326
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 3: be one of their main adjustments and going forward, because

327
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 3: when Lebron gets into the post and the way he

328
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 3: was handling Murray, it looked like old Lebron from the

329
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:36,920
Speaker 3: Cats when he would just completely control the pace and

330
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,200
Speaker 3: they played a lot slower in the second half. That

331
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 3: is completely Lakers basketball. But when you look at the

332
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 3: final score, one thirty two, one twenty six, those are

333
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 3: Nuggets numbers. Yeah, so this game was mostly played Nuggets

334
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 3: style and that's why they won.

335
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:50,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, you could feel it. Even though the Lakers got

336
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 1: their pace in the second half, they couldn't keep up

337
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 1: with the scoring in the last few minutes. I mean,

338
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:57,920
Speaker 1: it's just too fast. The Nuggets are going to score

339
00:14:58,000 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 1: more if you want to, if you want to start

340
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 1: you in threes, it's just not going to work. They

341
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:04,640
Speaker 1: just got to slow it down as much as possible,

342
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:08,800
Speaker 1: And yeah, those lazy switches in the first half can't

343
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 1: happen Aaron Gordon and Jamal Murray. They're obviously focused on

344
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 1: Jamal Murray. It was way too easy. Lebron had four

345
00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 1: buckets in the first quarter, three of them just on okay,

346
00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:22,040
Speaker 1: let's just switch why. I mean, it really didn't make

347
00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,640
Speaker 1: much sense. But he was picking his spots perfectly, because

348
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:28,000
Speaker 1: that's what Lebron does. This is exciting stuff.

349
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, who of the Nuggets, Like, you know, role

350
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 2: players impressed you the most, Like outside of Yokichen obviously

351
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 2: Jamal Murray, the stars. Was it Bruce Brown? Was it

352
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 2: Casey p who had twenty one and scored a ton

353
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 2: in the second half? Michael Porter Junior. You talked about

354
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 2: him taking advantage of his size. Like, of those three guys.

355
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 3: They all had moments. Yeah, they all honestly had moments.

356
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 3: MPG I thought played a really great game this He's

357
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 3: become a really solid all around player. Ten rebounds last night.

358
00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 3: I mentioned the blocks. He's been doing it all postseason.

359
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 3: It's like they just figured out, hey man, you might

360
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:04,640
Speaker 3: get beat initially off the screen, but just stick with

361
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:06,120
Speaker 3: it because you're six' ten and most of the guys

362
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 3: you're guarding are. Smaller that was. HUGE i thought the

363
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 3: way he was. CONTRIBUTING cacp was a monster in the third.

364
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 3: Quarter also had that crazy scoop layup Over davis in

365
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 3: the fourth quarter that really helped put a dagger into

366
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 3: the hearts of The. Lakers and then, Yeah Bruce brown

367
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:21,240
Speaker 3: with a big dunk in the first. Half it was

368
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,320
Speaker 3: more of a first half PERFORMANCE i thought For Bruce.

369
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 3: Brown but we might see more of him if The

370
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:30,160
Speaker 3: lakers are going to try and Guard Aaron gordon With Anthony,

371
00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:32,200
Speaker 3: davis because maybe you would like to have another play

372
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:34,640
Speaker 3: maker Like Bruce brown out, there somebody who is gonna

373
00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 3: make a play when it's a four on three and

374
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 3: they want somebody else to have the.

375
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:41,120
Speaker 1: Ball, YEAH kcp hitting mid range, SHOTS i mean going

376
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 1: to the. Hoop that's. Gold it's Like Danny green with the.

377
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,320
Speaker 1: Spurs it's almost like a no no, no, no no

378
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:49,200
Speaker 1: yes when he does. It you just want him sort

379
00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 1: of shooting. Threes but he was awesome in this. Game

380
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 1: he'd be bailed out, possessions so he was really huge for. Them.

381
00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 1: Yeah The Michael Porter. Jr defenses mind boggler to me

382
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,120
Speaker 1: didn't think that this was going to happen with, him

383
00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 1: but he's totally comfortable taking his. Role this is just

384
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:10,920
Speaker 1: an incredible team. Overall And Bruce, brown how The nets

385
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:15,199
Speaker 1: let him, leave no, idea no, idea how he's just

386
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:17,880
Speaker 1: able to sign this. CONTRACT i, mean he's their best

387
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 1: player off the bench on a very thin, bench even

388
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:22,520
Speaker 1: though you know they have the three guys going and

389
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,320
Speaker 1: Then Jeff green coming off the bench as well as

390
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:26,119
Speaker 1: part of the compost s. Crew that's another guy that

391
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 1: The lakers are are going to. Leave BUT i think

392
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:34,399
Speaker 1: he'll make them. Pay he's not just gonna shoot. THREES

393
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:35,960
Speaker 1: i think he's gonna make them. Pay at the, rim

394
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:38,320
Speaker 1: we're going to see one Big Jeff green. Dunk they're

395
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 1: just leaving him wide, open so he could, have you,

396
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:44,040
Speaker 1: know a couple of big. Moments but they're picking their.

397
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:47,280
Speaker 1: Battles it's like WATCHING. Pj tucker with The. Sixers they're

398
00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 1: just gonna Leave Aaron gordon wide. Open they're gonna Leave

Speaker 1: Jeff green wide open. Too And Christian brown as.

400
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 2: Well did you have a favorite play in this, game

401
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 2: because it felt like there were like four or five

402
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:59,440
Speaker 2: like pretty awesome highlight Place MAN i.

403
00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 3: Don't know one that sticks out to me THAT i

404
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 3: wish we would have seen a review. OF i think

405
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,399
Speaker 3: it's Like lebron grabs an offensive rebound and he just

406
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:07,880
Speaker 3: whips a pass over his head To. DAVIS i think

407
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:09,400
Speaker 3: for a layup and it just passed right.

408
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:10,480
Speaker 2: BY i THINK i.

409
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,440
Speaker 4: Think the replay like either coming.

410
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:15,239
Speaker 2: Out of a commercial or going to. Commercial, yeah they

411
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 2: did slip it in, there but that was. Sick that was.

412
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:19,680
Speaker 3: NICE i Loved jokic when he was bringing the ball

413
00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:21,720
Speaker 3: up the left wing and he hit like the little

414
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:24,720
Speaker 3: scoop going Around davis to the right and put a

415
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:27,680
Speaker 3: ton Of english on. It he did my dad's move

416

Speaker 1: missed a couple. More they could have had some other

462
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 1: big ones on the. Break that was the weird part

463
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:39,719
Speaker 1: in the first half of A Western conference playoff, game

464
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:41,080
Speaker 1: the way they were just able to get out on

465
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:44,720
Speaker 1: the break that. Much, Right, yeah that felt kind of,

466
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:46,960
Speaker 1: Different and that's what The, Lakers i'm sure we'll be,

467
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:48,960
Speaker 1: Preaching but The nuggets can say the same. Thing in

468
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:51,919
Speaker 1: the third, Quarter how the heck we allowed them to

469
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:54,199
Speaker 1: score as much as they, did so we got a,

470
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:55,880
Speaker 1: Series maybe we got a Serious.

471
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,159
Speaker 2: This was an Awesome jersey matchup. TOO i thought that

472
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:02,680
Speaker 2: LOOKED i like how that. Looked gold and The nuggets

473
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:06,359
Speaker 2: in Those Mile High City blues just look. Good it was, like,

474
00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 2: yeah this looks like an important, game and, no we're.

475
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:10,399
Speaker 2: In how about the start of this game with the

476
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:14,680
Speaker 2: shot clocks down in the. Corners it didn't have any. Impact,

477
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 2: really it felt, like which is.

478
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:16,760
Speaker 3: Good they didn't and.

479
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 2: They got it fixed at halftime and then we were

480
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:20,880
Speaker 2: back to the normal clocks above the. Backboards BUT i.

481
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 3: Gotta SAY i agreed With Jeff Van, gundy, like just play.

482
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:25,440
Speaker 3: It if the shot clock part of it is, Fine

483
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,560
Speaker 3: who cares about the game clock? Part if the eight

484
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:30,520
Speaker 3: looks like a nine or vice. Versa, yeah, whatever they

485
00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:32,240
Speaker 3: had backups and like, Whatever we'll just play the first

486
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,720
Speaker 3: half like. This nobody try and get close to a

487
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 3: low shot. Clock there probably wasn't a shot clock MILE

488
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:39,320
Speaker 3: i was gonna, say lot of quick possessions for.

489
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 1: SURE i saw they commented on the broadcast That lebron

490
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,080
Speaker 1: looked at it one time because he was in the

491
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 1: corner and he was handling the ball for probably like ten.

492
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,320
Speaker 1: Seconds it was a long time before he made his.

493
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 1: Decision even on a different. Play malone and the bench

494
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 1: were complaining about a potential five second call On lebron

495
00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:58,640
Speaker 1: or he was in the key for a long. Time

496
00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:01,040
Speaker 1: he was taking his. Time there was a close up

497
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:03,520
Speaker 1: of replay where he did some travel and had the

498
00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:06,120
Speaker 1: ball on his hip and all that he was taking his.

499
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,920
Speaker 1: Time he wants to slow this thing. Down it's it's New, lebron.

500
00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:12,320
Speaker 3: But he's still Good.

501
00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,159
Speaker 4: Lebron no one's, no one's just thumbs.

502
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 3: UP i thought was that was like harkened back To

503
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:21,679
Speaker 3: Paul george Versus lebron when they dapped up in The

504
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:24,919
Speaker 3: Eastern Conference Finals, Miami indiana all those years. Ago but

505
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:26,879
Speaker 3: this one was just like so much more. Dorky AND

506
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 3: i thought That lebron hitting the single thumbs up And

507
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,440
Speaker 3: Jamal herbury back with the two thumbs. UP i wanted

508
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:33,359
Speaker 3: somebody else like to pop in.

509
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:36,600
Speaker 2: Booo there is a there is a lot of respect

510
00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:38,480
Speaker 2: for these a lot of two teams to each, other

511
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:40,480
Speaker 2: like a lot of helping each other, up a lot

512
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,040
Speaker 2: of pats on the. Ass, hey we're.

513
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:44,119
Speaker 3: Like helping each other up all the.

514
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:46,879
Speaker 2: Time, yeah we'll see if it changes Come game four or.

515
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:50,920
Speaker 2: Five WHATEVER i was gonna SAY i assume nobody's predictions

516
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 2: heading into the series has. Changed after forty eight minutes of.

517
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:56,199
Speaker 2: Basketball you Had nuggets and, SIX i had, seven and

518
00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 2: you had The lakers in. SEVEN i, mean we're all

519
00:22:57,760 --> 00:22:59,159
Speaker 2: saying it's gonna be a hell of a. Series but,

520
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:01,040
Speaker 2: YEAH i Guess i'm asking. You are you?

521
00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 3: Changing, NO i, mean The nuggets still haven't lost at

522
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 3: home yet in the playoffs seven so, far SO i

523
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:10,160
Speaker 3: Think game two is going to be. HUGE i don't

524
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,199
Speaker 3: think we're going to see scores in the one twenties

525
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:15,640
Speaker 3: and one thirties in this one In game. Two BUT

526
00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:19,400
Speaker 3: i mean the series still feels very very. Close still

527
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,240
Speaker 3: changes to be made on both, sides SO i ain't

528
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:23,680
Speaker 3: pivoting quite. Yet.

529
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:29,240
Speaker 1: NO i definitely believe In darvin ham in the way

530
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 1: he's adapting really. Well that's a great. Sign so that

531
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:34,960
Speaker 1: he's doing it mid, game mid. QUARTER i Thought malone

532
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:38,080
Speaker 1: was a little too slow to make his. Adjustments so

533
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,160
Speaker 1: The lakers have that going for them at least they're

534
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 1: ready to pivot Or Dennis shrewder will call it from

535
00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:45,840
Speaker 1: the floor as well to, say, HEY i should be

536
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 1: fighting over for These Jamal murray. Shots BUT i mean

537
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:50,920
Speaker 1: that's the. Thing we, again we said, it but we

538
00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:53,840
Speaker 1: Overlook Jamal murray a little, bit like they have shot makers.

539
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:56,720
Speaker 1: Everywhere Aaron gordon is the one guy who could play

540
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:58,600
Speaker 1: a heck of a lot better. Too, yeah he just

541
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 1: wasn't really aggressive as much AS i. Say it felt

542
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:04,160
Speaker 1: like a win for The. Lakers and you're, Saying, oh

543
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:07,480
Speaker 1: The nuggets fans will, say Can davis drop forty? Again

544
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:09,639
Speaker 1: Can ruby do this? Again Can reeves do that? Again

545
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:11,640
Speaker 1: you could say that About nuggets. Players of, Course Aaron

546
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 1: gordon can get way. Better Jeff, green knt wit way,

547
00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:17,960
Speaker 1: Better Christian. Brown maybe the lights will be a little

548
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,080
Speaker 1: bit less bright in this. One so there's lots of

549
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:21,119
Speaker 1: lots of improveing to.

550
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:24,440
Speaker 2: Do any other random notes from you, Guys oh, YEAH

551
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:25,760

556
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 2: JOKE i mean a stat line at the half was pretty.

557
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:35,520
Speaker 2: Insane it was.

558
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,119
Speaker 1: DOPE i, mean he had ten boards with four minutes

559
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 1: left in the first. Quarter, yeah the nugget the, numbers,

560
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:43,760
Speaker 1: Okay but the funny thing is With Mark jackson, said

561
00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:45,960
Speaker 1: this is a guy who was picked last At All Star.

562

00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:56,920
Speaker 1: right he was duped with HIS mvp ballot. Recently and

564
00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:00,280
Speaker 1: then At All star weekend they picked the reserves first

565
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:03,639
Speaker 1: and then they picked the starter. Second So jokic was

566
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:07,520
Speaker 1: the last starter. Pick but they did that to preserve

567
00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 1: the feelings of the of the reserves so they wouldn't

568
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:12,920
Speaker 1: be the last. Pick and he, said was the last.

569
00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,639

570
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,840

00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,240
Speaker 1: To they were trying, to you, know preserve the feelings

572

00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:16,200
Speaker 3: quite tried the. Game you. Know it wasn't super. Late

616
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:19,200

617
00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 2: Premature, bang premature, Bang AND i agree with. THAT i

618

Speaker 2: caught that, too and you're right he didn't commit one

619
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:26,240
Speaker 2: hundred percent to. It, no, no, no get seventy percent.

620

699
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:12,200

00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:17,920

00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 2: couldn't go to Our, Raptors spurs is not a, great

704
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,280
Speaker 2: not a, bad excuse me landing spot for a guy

705
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 2: with his talent and obviously his aspirations in this league

706
00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:38,880
Speaker 2: because he goes to an organization that's like, proven has

707
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:44,200
Speaker 2: a track history of like taking obviously good talented players

708
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:46,160
Speaker 2: and making them To hall Of. Famers he's Under Great

709
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:49,280
Speaker 2: popovich for crying out loud under his. Tutelage so that's.

710
00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:51,840
Speaker 2: Good and maybe there's like the less pressure being In

711
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:54,400
Speaker 2: San antonio if you buy, that you, know outside of

712
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,880
Speaker 2: going to another organization that maybe expects to win more

713
00:31:56,960 --> 00:32:00,640
Speaker 2: right away or is a bigger media. Market some people

714
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:01,480
Speaker 2: believe that, Too.

715
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:03,560
Speaker 1: So, yeah there wouldn't have been. PRESSURE i don't think

716
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:08,120
Speaker 1: A charlotte or something like. THAT i would have rather

717
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 1: it happened to a team that didn't lose on. Purpose

718
00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:13,719
Speaker 1: charlotte just happened to be, very, very very bad this.

719
00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:17,120
Speaker 1: Season San antonio traded De Jontay murray their best player

720
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:20,120
Speaker 1: before the season, Started so if you want to pick some,

721
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:24,280
Speaker 1: knits it's just obviously it's gonna be a good scenario for.

722
00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:27,560
Speaker 1: Him it's just. Wild they're never, bad and when they,

723
00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:29,080
Speaker 1: are they get the number one.

724
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:31,840
Speaker 3: Pick if it takes one, year, no they take this.

725
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,280
Speaker 3: Year that's. It they were the number ten seed the

726
00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 3: past two seasons before this when they had De Jontey

727
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,000
Speaker 3: Murray DeRozan for a little bit. There this is. Perfect

728
00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:41,239
Speaker 3: this is honestly the perfect place for him to. Go

729
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:44,479
Speaker 3: there's no other stars In San, Antonio nobody they drafted

730
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:47,480
Speaker 3: high recently who you look at and say there's gonna

731
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 3: be a beef. Here With victor Owennbin, yamba he's clearly the.

732
00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:52,760
Speaker 3: Star it's not the same as going to A Jalen

733
00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:54,520
Speaker 3: green team where he's, LIKE i was just drafted number.

734
00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 3: Two you know it's. Perfect you got The french. Connection

735
00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:00,200
Speaker 3: look at how Many french players have played for The

736
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:02,880
Speaker 3: spurs over the. Years Tony parker posted a picture today

737
00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:05,880
Speaker 3: And Victor. Webbanyama impossible to tell how old he, is

738
00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:08,040
Speaker 3: but he looked like a. Child, yeah BUT i mean

739
00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:10,080
Speaker 3: he's probably six ft five already at that. Point he's

740
00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:12,920
Speaker 3: wearing A Tony Parker spurs number nine jersey with the

741
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:16,160

746
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:34,040
Speaker 3: NOW i, mean the only question to me is like

747
00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 3: how long Is Greg popovich going to? Coach, like is

748
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:37,800
Speaker 3: he gonna coach another ten years because he wants to

749
00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:39,440
Speaker 3: go as far as he can with this, guy or

750
00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:41,360
Speaker 3: is he gonna get set everything up perfectly and then

751
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:43,440
Speaker 3: hand that reins off to somebody. Else but, man this

752
00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:45,840
Speaker 3: is it's. Cool that's cool that he might have made

753
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:47,800
Speaker 3: it to The. SPURS i was messing in With, graydon

754
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:49,800

755
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:51,920
Speaker 3: guys know that The spurs won because they wanted it.

756
00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:54,800
Speaker 2: More it's, true they're so.

757
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:56,920
Speaker 1: Good they're so good at. TANKING i mean they tanked one,

758
00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 1: year but they tanked one year For duncan, too got.

759
00:33:59,640 --> 00:33:59,760
Speaker 3: Him.

Speaker 1: it's they're two for.

763
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:08,800
Speaker 2: Two hollander has a great article up On The athletic

764
00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:13,560
Speaker 2: wondering now how quickly The spurs rebuilt with the idea

765
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:16,080
Speaker 2: Of Victor wemenyama coming. In they have a ton of cap,

766
00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:18,680
Speaker 2: space they have some young, talent but obviously need to

767
00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:21,600
Speaker 2: fill out this. Roster and it's just, like how aggressive

768
00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,880
Speaker 2: do you? Go if you're San, ANTONIO i would assume they.

769
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:28,120

Speaker 2: a paycheck and an. Opportunity maybe The San Antonio spurs

778
00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:54,440
Speaker 2: are suddenly a lot more appealing to you if The

779
00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:57,480
Speaker 2: French kid is the real deal in THE. Nba but

780

Speaker 2: the third, Spot rockets falling to, Fourth pistons falling all

786
00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:19,400
Speaker 2: the way to. Fifth remember it Was San, Antonio houston

787
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:23,960
Speaker 2: And detroit with your best odds last night for the

788
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:27,000
Speaker 2: number one pick a fourteen percent, chance so they drop.

789
00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:31,120
Speaker 2: Out and then it's The, Magic, Pacers, Wizards Jazz MAVs

790
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:33,839

00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:46,960
Speaker 2: other winners or losers from last night's draft? Lottery what

794
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:47,320
Speaker 2: do you? Got T?

795
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:50,360
Speaker 3: K i mean two and three are definitely. Winners charlotte

796
00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:53,000
Speaker 3: bumping up and The blazers bumping. UP i, MEAN i

797
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 3: Think charlotte has a super interesting choice Because Scoot henderson

798
00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:58,040
Speaker 3: has been the guy who's kind of been looked at

799
00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 3: as the number two. Pick a lot more buzz For

800
00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:06,120
Speaker 3: Brandon miller as THE ncaa season went. On LaMelo ball's already.

801
00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:08,360
Speaker 3: There he's A rookie of The year and an Established

802
00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:11,200
Speaker 3: All star point. Guard but would be nice to Have

803
00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:14,160
Speaker 3: scoot next To LaMelo. Ball THAT'S nba jam potential right.

804
00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:16,879
Speaker 3: There do you Want Brandon miller for fit you need

805
00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:19,640
Speaker 3: a wing or do you trade it the number two

806
00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:22,120
Speaker 3: pick to somebody who, really really really Wants, scoot maybe

807
00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:24,680
Speaker 3: An Orlando magic. Team do you even Trade LaMelo because

808
00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,719
Speaker 3: you Think scoot's a better? Prospect charlotte is. Interesting The

809
00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:31,160
Speaker 3: blazers getting up to number. Three that changes things for.

810
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:34,360
Speaker 3: Them one and three very very different because now to,

811
00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:37,839
Speaker 3: Me Tree tree three seems like a huge trade. Chip,

812
00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:39,840
Speaker 3: LIKE i think The blazer's are going to definitely trade

813
00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:44,240
Speaker 3: number three because the timeline is just off For Damian

814
00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:47,320
Speaker 3: lillard to stick around waiting For miller or Maybe Scoot

815
00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:50,880
Speaker 3: henderson to get to be a real contributor in The Western,

816
00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:54,600
Speaker 3: conference whereas now you can trade Three nurkic something else

817
00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:57,880
Speaker 3: to get a real player Alongside Damian. Lillard SO i

818
00:36:57,880 --> 00:36:59,000
Speaker 3: think they did really good last.

819
00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:01,960
Speaker 2: Night what about the other, path keeping the number three

820
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:06,959
Speaker 2: pick and Trading Damian lillard and Going simon's sharp number

821
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:10,239
Speaker 2: three pick whoever it is and like re re re re,

822
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:11,960
Speaker 2: Rebuild no, Way.

823
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,960
Speaker 3: Jose they should have done it before this season when

824
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:17,480
Speaker 3: they could have maybe Gotten Victor Weeban. YAMA i don't.

825
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:18,840
Speaker 3: THINK i don't think now is the time to do.

826
00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:19,960
Speaker 2: It what do you think The blazers?

827
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:23,160
Speaker 1: Do, oh they. TRADED i think there's a good possibility

828
00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:25,560
Speaker 1: the teams that didn't Get Victor Webman yama two through

829
00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:28,480
Speaker 1: five trade their. PICKS i think it could be one

830
00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:32,040
Speaker 1: of those special. Drafts The pistons dropping from one to

831
00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:34,960
Speaker 1: five the biggest. LOSER i, mean they had the, possibility

832
00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:37,960
Speaker 1: along with two other teams to get the number one.

833
00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:39,759
Speaker 1: Pick they have to trade their, pick. RIGHT i don't

834
00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:42,879
Speaker 1: think they stick around and get another young player when

835
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:45,440
Speaker 1: they've got just so many of. Them SO i assume

836
00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:48,440
Speaker 1: that pick has. Traded rockets at, FOUR i think they

837
00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:51,319
Speaker 1: have to consider trading their. Pick as. Well do they

838
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:56,120
Speaker 1: keep going young with already, young really really solid parts

839
00:37:56,120 --> 00:38:00,040
Speaker 1: In shngoon and Ja Bryce smith And Jalen. Green you,

840
00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 1: Know i'm convinced that The blazers are going to trade

841
00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:06,920
Speaker 1: their pick at number. Three i'm buying. THAT i think

842
00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:09,919
Speaker 1: they go the other. ROUTE i just think you'd rather

843
00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:13,520
Speaker 1: buy Into dame even though he's, older than the possibility

844
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:15,600
Speaker 1: of a number three pick being really great because After

845
00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:18,399
Speaker 1: Victor Wee, minyema you don't know how great these guys

846
00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:20,719
Speaker 1: are going to. Be and The hornets at number two

847
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:24,200
Speaker 1: is extremely. INTERESTING i imagine they keep their, pick.

848
00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:25,839
Speaker 3: But who.

849
00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 1: Knows jordan's selling this team now that he didn't Get Victor.

850
00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:30,200
Speaker 1: Wombanyama that's What i'm convinced. Of that's ALL i know

851
00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:34,880
Speaker 1: with The. Hornets but, yeah there are other exciting. Prospects Scout.

852
00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:37,800
Speaker 1: Henderson we saw him in. Person he's an exciting, prospect

853
00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:39,839
Speaker 1: so he'll be fun to watch and he'll be a fan,

854
00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:42,440
Speaker 1: favorite that's for. Sure but there's no lock of any

855
00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:43,680
Speaker 1: of these guys being stars outside Of.

856
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:46,920
Speaker 2: Webnyema, yeah the biggest loser probably is The, pistons who

857
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:50,040
Speaker 2: had the league worst record seventeen and sixty. Five and

858
00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:54,279
Speaker 2: they're picking, fifth marking the fifth straight season that the

859
00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:56,600
Speaker 2: team with the NBA's worst record will not select first.

860
00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:59,040
Speaker 2: Overall now a lot of that's the weighted odds there

861
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:02,360
Speaker 2: at the. Top, now and another. Loser it's got to

862
00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:04,200
Speaker 2: be The Washington. WIZARDS i don't know if you guys saw,

863
00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:08,600
Speaker 2: This Ben, gulliver he's back in the secret draft lottery

864
00:39:08,680 --> 00:39:12,680
Speaker 2: room with Your zach lows and Your Fred katz and

865
00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:15,480
Speaker 2: all those people watching the actual ping pong balls in the,

866
00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:19,640
Speaker 2: machine the winning ping pong ball, combo according To Ben,

867
00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:22,800
Speaker 2: Golliver i've Seen Zach lowe confirm this was, fourteen, five

868
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:25,160
Speaker 2: eight and. Two that was the four numbers in order

869
00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:28,719
Speaker 2: after the first three numbers were picked, fourteen five and.

870
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:32,960
Speaker 2: Eight The wizards had six of the possible eleven remaining,

871
00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:35,799
Speaker 2: numbers so they needed either a seven to come, up a,

872
00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:39,080
Speaker 2: nine a, ten an, eleven a, twelve or. Thirteen if

873
00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:41,720
Speaker 2: that is that last ping pong ball. Number The wizards

874
00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 2: would have had the, combo and would have obviously Had

875
00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:47,560
Speaker 2: Victor Webin. Yama ooh, Ooh AND i think that happened

876
00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:49,600
Speaker 2: to The wizards not all that long ago. TOO i

877
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:51,440
Speaker 2: got a couple drafts ago where they missed out on you,

878
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:53,840
Speaker 2: know one ping pong ball, number the last one that

879
00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:56,640
Speaker 2: would have given the number one. Pick, instead they're exactly

880
00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:57,240
Speaker 2: where they always.

881
00:39:57,239 --> 00:40:02,600
Speaker 3: Are Tray, Hey, yeah but they love. It couldn't couldn't

882
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:05,360
Speaker 3: send One Bean yama to The, wizards, though maybe couldn't

883
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:06,799
Speaker 3: send to The. Blazers there are a lot of teams

884
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:08,360
Speaker 3: you don't want to See victor We banyama, On but

885
00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:12,360
Speaker 3: The spurs is. NICE i hear. You pistons the worst

886
00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:14,719
Speaker 3: loser dropping, wise BUT i think it's worse for The

887
00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:17,440
Speaker 3: rockets because they haven't got to pick number. One and

888
00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:20,680
Speaker 3: now look at who is in the division right now

889
00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:23,279
Speaker 3: with The Houston, Rockets Memphis Grizzlies John, morant who knows

890
00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:25,080
Speaker 3: what's going to happen, there but still a great. Player

891
00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:29,240
Speaker 3: New Orleans, Pelicans Zion, Williamson Dallas, Mavericks Luka, Doncic San Antonio,

892
00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:34,960
Speaker 3: Spurs Victor, Wembanyama Houston. Rockets who's their, star, Right Jalen,

893
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 3: Green Jabari, Smith Sheng. Goon nobody on the level of

894
00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:41,480
Speaker 3: those four guys who are all going to be multiple

895
00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:43,799
Speaker 3: Time All stars for the next five seasons, Likely SO

896
00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:45,480
Speaker 3: i think that's a tough. ONE i got to give

897
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:47,920
Speaker 3: an out to my. Guys tough one for The bulls

898
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:50,160
Speaker 3: lost their pick to The magic last. NIGHT i knew

899
00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:51,799
Speaker 3: it was over When dale And terry showed up in

Speaker 3: they lost the second round or they traded for in

905
00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:14,200
Speaker 3: The Lonzo ball tampering. Investigations so The bulls have zero

906
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:17,560
Speaker 3: picks in the draft this coming. Season both of those

907
00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:20,600
Speaker 3: trades that they lost picks on for this Season Otto porter.

908
00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:22,920
Speaker 3: Trades they lost one trading For Otto porter and then

909
00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:25,879
Speaker 3: they lost one when they Traded Otto porter. Away but, man,

916
00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:39,239
Speaker 2: put those two together to move up to could you

917
00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:41,480
Speaker 2: be in play at all for a scooter or something like,

918

920
00:41:45,239 --> 00:41:49,480
Speaker 2: sixth and. Eleventh, yeah The, KNICKS i guess also sort

921
00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:51,600
Speaker 2: of a mini loser not getting The mavericks Pick Trail

922
00:41:51,719 --> 00:41:54,759
Speaker 2: dallas the winner holding on with that tenth. Pick if

923
00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:57,320
Speaker 2: they had gone a little, higher it goes to The

924
00:41:57,360 --> 00:41:59,759
Speaker 2: New York, knicks but It's dallas's and they need it

925
00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:01,719
Speaker 2: for sure in terms of either drafting a player or

926
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:03,560
Speaker 2: putting that together in. Package, yeah there could be a

927
00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:08,040
Speaker 2: lot of deals here with these picks potentially being swapped

928
00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:10,600
Speaker 2: around because of positioning and players you, want needs you,

929
00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:13,319
Speaker 2: want or, yeah we want more like players that can

930
00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:15,239
Speaker 2: help us win now when you're more interested in the.

931
00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:19,120
Speaker 2: Future moving, on the seventy Six ers fired head Coach

932
00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:21,439
Speaker 2: Doc rivers On, tuesday just two days after they fell

933
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:23,520
Speaker 2: In game seven of The Eastern Conference semifinals to The.

934
00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:27,880
Speaker 2: Celtics rivers great regular season record zero, points sixty five

935
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:30,239
Speaker 2: to three win percentage when he was With philly in

936
00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:32,799
Speaker 2: his three, seasons including fifty four victories this, year which

937
00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:36,080
Speaker 2: was a franchise most since The Iverson days back in

938
00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:38,400
Speaker 2: two thousand and two thousand and. One But game seven's

939
00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:42,560
Speaker 2: defeat marked the ninth straight time That Doc rivers lost

940
00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:45,440
Speaker 2: with a chance to reach the conference. Finals that still

941
00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:49,800
Speaker 2: sounds fake to. Me that guy had nine consecutive losses

942
00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:54,080
Speaker 2: that would have put his team to the conference. Finals so,

943
00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:59,080
Speaker 2: Yeah Doc, gun no one's really all that, surprise especially

944
00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:02,279
Speaker 2: after we've Seen sudenholzer get canned And Monty williams get

945
00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:04,960
Speaker 2: Canned Nick nurse before. THAT i, mean you had three

946
00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:07,560
Speaker 2: chances here to get them further Than Brett brown could

947
00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:07,719
Speaker 2: and he.

948
00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:10,840
Speaker 1: Couldn't and the way they got torn up out apart

949
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:13,759
Speaker 1: In game seven where he lost the guys on the,

950
00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:17,640
Speaker 1: floor really he wasn't Motivating embiid to Be. Embiid AND

951
00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:20,960
Speaker 1: i think he lost the relationship With James harden as.

952
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:24,680
Speaker 1: Well So i'm guessing The sixers are going to try

953
00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:28,000
Speaker 1: and Bring James harden back if this is the move.

954
00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:31,040
Speaker 1: Here but you, know a combination of the way they fell,

955
00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:33,040
Speaker 1: apart it's got to be on the coach to some.

956
00:43:33,120 --> 00:43:36,200
Speaker 1: Degree in game seven there and his relationship With, harden

957
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:40,960
Speaker 1: which usually at the, end right after a, game a

958
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:43,640
Speaker 1: guy will, say, ah you, know we miss shots or.

959
00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:47,359
Speaker 1: Whatever how's your relationship With Doc rivers with your? Coach,

960
00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:49,719
Speaker 1: oh it's, good he just said it's. Okay AND i

961
00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:52,719
Speaker 1: think at the end of game, six when they went

962
00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:55,000
Speaker 1: To maxi And embiid in the pick and, roll that

963
00:43:55,080 --> 00:43:56,880
Speaker 1: Was doc's choice And harden was sort of off the.

964
00:43:56,880 --> 00:44:01,439
Speaker 1: BALL i think that probably killed With James, harden who

965
00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:06,840
Speaker 1: has been was a good number two for some games

966
00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:09,400
Speaker 1: forty five and forty two obviously in that, series and

967
00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:14,040
Speaker 1: then had five bad other. Games so it's got to

968
00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:16,279
Speaker 1: be On harden as. Well But duck's paying the price for,

969
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:20,400
Speaker 1: sure AND i think it's it's fair in not in his,

970
00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:25,120
Speaker 1: eyes because you, know he, said all these guys losing,

971
00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:28,000
Speaker 1: jobs you keep your coach, around keep the culture. Around

972
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:31,520
Speaker 1: but at the same time they got blown, out and

973
00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:33,680
Speaker 1: SO i think that has to Be it has to

974
00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:35,560
Speaker 1: be on the coach to some. DEGREE i, mean you

975
00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:37,080
Speaker 1: have to get your guys to play a little bit

976
00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:42,680
Speaker 1: harder than. That and the, yeah the, operation the schemes

977
00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:44,760
Speaker 1: were just thrown out the window and they stopped. Playing

978
00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:46,640
Speaker 1: SO i think that has to be On dock to some.

979
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:49,719
Speaker 3: Degree it's three strikes and you're. Out In, Philadelphia Brett

980
00:44:49,719 --> 00:44:52,360
Speaker 3: brown had three chances With Joel embiid in the. Playoffs

981
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:54,520
Speaker 3: they didn't make it to The conference. Finals Doc rivers

982
00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:56,440
Speaker 3: had three chances With Joel ebid in the, playoffs they

983
00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:58,719
Speaker 3: didn't make it into the conference. Finals i'd agree with

984
00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:00,000
Speaker 3: you a little bit TAST i think it's a little

985
00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:02,880
Speaker 3: bit of Scapegoating doc because it's easier to get rid

986
00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:05,200
Speaker 3: of your coach than any of the other moves that

987
00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:08,640
Speaker 3: are out. THERE i Think doc was probably worse In game,

988
00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:11,759
Speaker 3: six just completely unable to get em bead the ball

989
00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:14,560
Speaker 3: down the, stretch than he was In game, seven where

990
00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:16,640
Speaker 3: it was really on embead and hardened to me coming

991
00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:19,200
Speaker 3: out and just not playing. BASKETBALL i think it's also

992
00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:21,840
Speaker 3: like you're mentioning it's a good time to fire a

993
00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:24,200
Speaker 3: coach because it's likely that a guy Like doc gets

994
00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:25,600
Speaker 3: picked up by another team and you don't have to

995
00:45:25,640 --> 00:45:28,000
Speaker 3: pay out the last two years of his, contract WHICH

996
00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:31,040
Speaker 3: i think is probably another factor in this, decision Because

997
00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:33,560
Speaker 3: doc's gonna still be in demand if he wants to.

998
00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:35,360
Speaker 3: Coach maybe he'll go back and do some media or

999
00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:38,520
Speaker 3: something like. That but he gets regular season. Results if

1000
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:40,360
Speaker 3: your team loses a star in the middle of the,

1001
00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:42,080
Speaker 3: season you're probably not going to take a step back

1002
00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:45,200
Speaker 3: Because doc gets really good performances during the regular. Season

1003
00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:48,000
Speaker 3: out of a team full of role. Players we've seen

1004
00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:49,399
Speaker 3: that a. Lot he got the best out Of Drawel

1005
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:51,879
Speaker 3: embiid as. Well, yeah he finished second in THE mvp

1006
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:55,160
Speaker 3: two straight, years won it this year and has gotten

1007
00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:57,840
Speaker 3: a lot better Since Doc rivers took over In. Philadelphia but,

1008
00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:00,800
Speaker 3: man this is a crucial hire now for The sixers

1009
00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:03,200
Speaker 3: deciding what they're going to. Do let's see who's coaching

1010
00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:05,759
Speaker 3: the team. Next because The embiid clock is, ticking and

1011
00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:08,239
Speaker 3: if they're making their choices based on Who James harden

1012
00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:09,319
Speaker 3: wants as a, coach that is a.

1013
00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:13,040
Speaker 2: Mistake what do you mean by, That mike D'Antoni as a, POSSIBILITY.

1014
00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:15,000
Speaker 3: I mean he's in the. Mix he's in the. Mix

1015
00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:17,440
Speaker 3: he's an old fella as, well seventy one years, old

1016
00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:21,440
Speaker 3: seventy two maybe something like. That BUT i don't, Know,

1017
00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:24,399
Speaker 3: harden a guy who's got a foot out the door

1018
00:46:24,520 --> 00:46:26,399
Speaker 3: might not even be coming. Back he kind of has

1019
00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:30,600
Speaker 3: The franchise's said another word for buy the balls BECAUSE

1020
00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:31,919
Speaker 3: i don't really want to say, it but he. Did

1021
00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:33,719
Speaker 3: but he's got the franchise by the balls right. Now

1022
00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:36,040
Speaker 3: and if he's the one calling the, shots it's jover For.

1023
00:46:36,080 --> 00:46:39,000
Speaker 3: Philadelphia Joel embiid needs to be calling the. Shots you

1024
00:46:39,040 --> 00:46:41,080
Speaker 3: need to do what he, wants not What James harden.

1025
00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:44,200
Speaker 2: Wants, yeah because the part of this If harden leaves

1026
00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:46,359
Speaker 2: in free agency Is, philadelphia they don't have cap space

1027
00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:48,960
Speaker 2: to really replace him at all because of their books

1028
00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:52,280
Speaker 2: as they're currently. Constructed they would have a mid level

1029
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:55,400
Speaker 2: exception if he. Leaves but you, know we're talking a

1030
00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:58,319
Speaker 2: little over twelve million dollars to try and supplement its.

1031
00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:01,800
Speaker 2: Roster If hardened to sid to go back To, houston

1032
00:47:02,239 --> 00:47:05,200
Speaker 2: like does he? Does harden Is? Harden just Like i'm

1033
00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:07,879
Speaker 2: sort of over trying to win a. CHAMPIONSHIP i gave

1034
00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:10,200
Speaker 2: it a little bit of a. Go let me just go,

1035
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:14,799
Speaker 2: back get paid a, lot put up some, stats you,

1036
00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:18,200
Speaker 2: know no. Pressure, seriously maybe it looks at it that.

1037
00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:19,839
Speaker 2: Way Apparently phoenix is Now.

1038
00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:21,479
Speaker 3: Harden.

1039
00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:24,640
Speaker 2: YES i Thought William leo On The Raptor show did

1040
00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:27,640
Speaker 2: have a good point of all these high profile coaches

1041
00:47:27,680 --> 00:47:31,120
Speaker 2: being canned here, recently and he, wondered will did if

1042
00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:34,279
Speaker 2: like this is a product of parody a little, bit

1043
00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:36,440
Speaker 2: AND i was thinking about. IT i think there's some

1044
00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:41,560
Speaker 2: truth to. It all these again talented, coaches for, sure you,

1045
00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:43,520
Speaker 2: know coaches that have won championships are gone to the.

1046
00:47:43,560 --> 00:47:48,040
Speaker 2: Finals i'm Talking budenholzer doc with The celtics way back

1047
00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:50,960
Speaker 2: in the, day And Monty, williams like they get canned

1048
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:54,279
Speaker 2: here because it's like the league is so. Open it's, like,

1049
00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:57,399
Speaker 2: hey we should be that. Team is maybe what front

1050
00:47:57,400 --> 00:47:59,960
Speaker 2: offices and organizations are, saying, LIKE i, know, man LIKE

1051
00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:03,040
Speaker 2: i know it feels like we're cutting you pretty quick,

1052
00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:06,160
Speaker 2: here but like this is wide open here and we

1053
00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:09,359
Speaker 2: should be in conference finals or finals or winning. CHAMPIONSHIPS

1054
00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:11,279
Speaker 2: i think there's some truth to, that at least right

1055
00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:13,800
Speaker 2: now this little. Window because it used to Be Lebron

1056
00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:16,719
Speaker 2: james in The Eastern. Conference he was going to the,

1057
00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:19,200
Speaker 2: finals and you, know The warriors dynasty was their whole

1058
00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:22,200
Speaker 2: thing for a. While and now it's like we talked

1059
00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:24,239
Speaker 2: ourselves at least during the regular, season oh there's seven

1060
00:48:24,320 --> 00:48:26,400
Speaker 2: or eight teams it could win this whole. THING i

1061
00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:30,480
Speaker 2: think still fairly. Well three of them just fired their

1062
00:48:30,520 --> 00:48:32,960
Speaker 2: coaches that we had on that list for sure being

1063
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:35,160
Speaker 2: the ones that could go all the. Way SO i

1064
00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:38,319
Speaker 2: think he's. RIGHT i Think will's right with just this

1065
00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:41,839
Speaker 2: quick movement on high profile names that have had some,

1066
00:48:41,840 --> 00:48:44,759
Speaker 2: success regular season success and even championship success in a

1067
00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:45,600
Speaker 2: couple of their. Cases.

1068
00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:51,400
Speaker 1: Sure, also you've got THE mvp And James, Harden SO

1069
00:48:51,960 --> 00:48:53,799
Speaker 1: i mean that's just a huge part of this, one

1070
00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:56,400
Speaker 1: specifically that they he lost the locker room to.

1071
00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:58,799
Speaker 2: Somebody you meant, INDEED i Mean harden did win AN,

1072
00:48:58,840 --> 00:48:59,719
Speaker 2: mvp SO i was a little.

1073
00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:03,640
Speaker 1: Purple oh, Okay, no the m V p And Haarden i'm, saying,

1074
00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:07,200
Speaker 1: yeah like you've got a pretty good recipe.

1075
00:49:07,239 --> 00:49:11,320
Speaker 2: Here, well, YEAH i mean this was their best. Chance, yes,

1076
00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:13,080
Speaker 2: yes game.

1077
00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:16,000
Speaker 1: Six and they'd stop playing for him when you're when

1078
00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:19,319

1100
00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:20,880
Speaker 3: Personality Ye. Nurse, yeah he loves making. Adjustments but there

1101
00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:23,279
Speaker 3: is nothing scarier to me than the idea Of Nick

1102
00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:25,719
Speaker 3: nurse Coaching Joel. Embiid oh my, god there's no way

1103

Speaker 3: he could handle the. Minutes simply impossible For Joel embiid

1104
00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:32,080
Speaker 3: to Play Nick nurse style. Minutes he couldn't play playoff

1105
00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:34,480
Speaker 3: minutes in the, playoffs let alone for eighty two games

1106
00:50:34,480 --> 00:50:36,759

1107
00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:39,560
Speaker 3: interesting to. See the key here to me would be

1108
00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:42,480
Speaker 3: don't hire any of the. Retreads they're not going to do.

1109
00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:45,040
Speaker 3: That but you don't want to hire a. Retread they're

1110
00:50:45,120 --> 00:50:47,280
Speaker 3: usually not that. Good there's a reason they've been fired

1111
00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:50,280
Speaker 3: at some. Point whereas you look at the three longest tenured,

1150
00:52:59,000 --> 00:53:00,719

1151
00:53:00,760 --> 00:53:03,320
Speaker 1: been three days, now and to slip it in where

1152
00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:07,680
Speaker 1: it could be shelled as quickly as, possible because that's

1153
00:53:07,719 --> 00:53:08,359
Speaker 1: what it felt, like.

1154
00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:13,160
Speaker 2: YEAH i, mean post draft lottery late in an entertaining

1155
00:53:13,200 --> 00:53:15,200
Speaker 2: game one of The Western commence files is exactly what

1156
00:53:15,280 --> 00:53:17,440
Speaker 2: they did or tried to. Do but you did Have

1157
00:53:17,480 --> 00:53:21,879
Speaker 2: Adam silver being asked about the incident on television last,

1158
00:53:21,960 --> 00:53:26,319
Speaker 2: night and he, sounded For, silver pretty damn pissed. Off

1159
00:53:26,640 --> 00:53:30,240
Speaker 2: and if you're reading into like you, know his words

1160
00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:33,040
Speaker 2: and his body language and how he was addressing it

1161
00:53:33,080 --> 00:53:36,760
Speaker 2: for the second, TIME i think you take away the, idea,

1162
00:53:36,920 --> 00:53:39,480
Speaker 2: well this could be a pretty hefty. Suspension that's WHAT

1163
00:53:39,520 --> 00:53:40,680
Speaker 2: i was guessing getting from.

1164
00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:43,800
Speaker 3: Him one hundred percent, Agree AND i, Mean Adam silver

1165
00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:45,520
Speaker 3: hit it right on the. Head he's, like there are

1166
00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:47,239
Speaker 3: millions of kids who could have been watching you and

1167
00:53:47,280 --> 00:53:51,799
Speaker 3: that's a, huge huge, problem and disappointment is, Like i'm

1168
00:53:51,840 --> 00:53:53,759
Speaker 3: Sure Adam silver is feeling like you lied straight to

1169
00:53:53,800 --> 00:53:56,840
Speaker 3: my face and then completely embarrassed me months, Later so

1170
00:53:57,760 --> 00:54:00,280
Speaker 3: they're doing their investigation. Now but, YEAH i totally agree

1171
00:54:00,320 --> 00:54:03,880
Speaker 3: With silver's response and the kind of the tenor of

1172
00:54:03,880 --> 00:54:06,279
Speaker 3: his comments that it feels like it will be a

1173
00:54:06,320 --> 00:54:08,400
Speaker 3: long suspension for job once the season rolls.

1174
00:54:08,280 --> 00:54:11,680
Speaker 1: Around because he did, meet as you, said after the first,

1175
00:54:11,680 --> 00:54:15,200
Speaker 1: incident they had that long conversation apparently where they chatted about.

1176
00:54:15,200 --> 00:54:20,319
Speaker 1: Everything While morant did his therapy session In florida and

1177
00:54:20,320 --> 00:54:23,520
Speaker 1: then had that interview With Jalen, rose there was a

1178
00:54:23,680 --> 00:54:26,040
Speaker 1: chat between him And, silver and that's Why silver said

1179
00:54:26,040 --> 00:54:29,080
Speaker 1: he was shocked by this second. Incident didn't think it

1180
00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:31,799
Speaker 1: would happen. Again those were that was the word that

1181
00:54:31,840 --> 00:54:35,680
Speaker 1: he used With Malik andrews ON. Espn and this obviously

1182
00:54:35,800 --> 00:54:40,160
Speaker 1: should be a long. SUSPENSION i think there's a speculation

1183
00:54:40,239 --> 00:54:43,719
Speaker 1: for a big range from you, know double. DIGITS i

1184
00:54:43,760 --> 00:54:46,360
Speaker 1: guess would would be the sort of the low, point

1185
00:54:46,560 --> 00:54:49,920
Speaker 1: considering he got eight for the first one to something

1186
00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:52,280
Speaker 1: like a full, season AND i think it's it's definitely

1187
00:54:52,280 --> 00:54:54,880
Speaker 1: going to be in the at least half a season,

1188
00:54:55,120 --> 00:54:57,600
Speaker 1: range AND i think it should be at the very.

1189
00:54:57,680 --> 00:55:00,520
Speaker 1: Least and THEN i do like how THE nba has

1190
00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:04,680
Speaker 1: a no nonsense policy about this so had to slip

1191
00:55:04,680 --> 00:55:07,120
Speaker 1: it in because this is a superstar in the league

1192
00:55:07,120 --> 00:55:09,640
Speaker 1: that has done this once.

1193
00:55:09,680 --> 00:55:12,400
Speaker 2: Again how quickly do you Think silver in the league

1194
00:55:13,239 --> 00:55:15,520
Speaker 2: slapped the suspension On John. MORAN i, mean it could

1195
00:55:15,520 --> 00:55:17,719
Speaker 2: in theory go all summer. LONG i, mean, really if

1196
00:55:17,760 --> 00:55:19,120
Speaker 2: they didn't want, to or do you think they will

1197
00:55:19,160 --> 00:55:22,719
Speaker 2: try and During game two of The Western Conference, finals

1198
00:55:23,320 --> 00:55:25,719
Speaker 2: as soon As lebron is hitting a buzzer, beater say

1199
00:55:25,719 --> 00:55:28,359
Speaker 2: That Joam moran has been, suspended you, know thirty games

1200
00:55:28,360 --> 00:55:31,640
Speaker 2: for next. Season, like do you think this comes sooner

1201
00:55:31,680 --> 00:55:32,040
Speaker 2: rather than?

1202
00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:36,000
Speaker 1: LATER i would think, so it's, yeah THE nba acts pretty. Quickly,

1203
00:55:37,320 --> 00:55:39,359
Speaker 1: yeah it would be, weird it would be. Strange it'd

1204
00:55:39,360 --> 00:55:42,000
Speaker 1: be off to wait wait Until.

1205
00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:44,440
Speaker 2: September, yeah it doesn't make a lot of.

1206
00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:47,040
Speaker 3: Sense grizzlies acted a lot faster this time around than

1207
00:55:47,080 --> 00:55:49,000
Speaker 3: the last time an right like first time, around they're,

1208
00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:51,359
Speaker 3: like we're doing an. Investigation they wouldn't want to say

1209
00:55:51,400 --> 00:55:54,760
Speaker 3: suspension right, away but they suspended. Him and definitely obviously

1210
00:55:54,800 --> 00:55:56,640
Speaker 3: The grizzlies don't really have anything going on right. Now

1211
00:55:56,680 --> 00:55:58,279
Speaker 3: it's like you can't use our, gym you can't eat our.

1212
00:55:58,320 --> 00:56:02,200
Speaker 3: Food BUT i think THAT i think That silver will

1213
00:56:02,440 --> 00:56:05,160
Speaker 3: want the news out pretty quickly and then we'll talk

1214
00:56:05,160 --> 00:56:07,359
Speaker 3: about it and then we'll have to remember it come next.

1215
00:56:07,400 --> 00:56:10,160
Speaker 2: SEASON i will say whether or not you Believe Jah

1216
00:56:10,200 --> 00:56:13,919
Speaker 2: moran actually wrote these little pr, apologies either the first

1217
00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:15,760
Speaker 2: one or second. ONE i saw people, saying this feels

1218
00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:21,640
Speaker 2: like a CHAT gpt sort of. RESPONSE i do at

1219
00:56:21,719 --> 00:56:25,319
Speaker 2: least appreciate the my words may not mean much right.

1220
00:56:25,360 --> 00:56:27,680
Speaker 2: Now that is the one where everyone's, LIKE i, Agree,

1221
00:56:27,840 --> 00:56:31,359
Speaker 2: yeah they mean sort of, nothing, man because you did

1222
00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:34,600
Speaker 2: this two months ago and, said you, know you, know

1223
00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:37,640
Speaker 2: you were, remorseful and you had the redemption sweatshirts on the,

1224
00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:39,799
Speaker 2: family and you talk To silver and you had your

1225
00:56:39,880 --> 00:56:43,040
Speaker 2: jail And rose, interview and you went to some counseling In,

1226
00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:46,200
Speaker 2: florida and then of course you just turn around and

1227
00:56:46,600 --> 00:56:49,719
Speaker 2: do it really right. Again basically it's the exact same. Thing,

1228
00:56:50,120 --> 00:56:52,000
Speaker 2: yeah they're not going to mean much of anything right.
