WEBVTT - Early Surprises, Load Management and More!

0:00:00.480 --> 0:00:06.520
<v Speaker 1>You're tuned into Heat Check, But just a quick on

0:00:06.559 --> 0:00:08.080
<v Speaker 1>this episode of the Heat Check.

0:00:09.119 --> 0:00:12.600
<v Speaker 2>We've got just so much popping around the league. We've

0:00:12.640 --> 0:00:17.040
<v Speaker 2>got to start taking a tour. We've got our passports ready, Nick.

0:00:17.280 --> 0:00:21.040
<v Speaker 2>We've got Sacramento Kings. We already hit them, gave them

0:00:21.079 --> 0:00:23.520
<v Speaker 2>some shine. We've got some other ones. We've got to

0:00:23.560 --> 0:00:25.960
<v Speaker 2>break down two teams moving in opposite directions. We've got

0:00:25.960 --> 0:00:29.520
<v Speaker 2>the Okay Seat Thunder and we got the Houston Rockets,

0:00:29.760 --> 0:00:32.120
<v Speaker 2>Yes we do. And then we've got to break down

0:00:32.159 --> 0:00:35.199
<v Speaker 2>some news from around the league, including a game I

0:00:35.320 --> 0:00:38.320
<v Speaker 2>was supposed to be at but I decided to go

0:00:38.360 --> 0:00:39.960
<v Speaker 2>to a different worst game instead.

0:00:40.360 --> 0:00:46.520
<v Speaker 1>Joel embiid Historic night, But why does that symbolize trouble?

0:00:47.680 --> 0:00:51.120
<v Speaker 2>Also, let's get into the resurrection of a player, Edmund Sumner,

0:00:51.159 --> 0:00:52.800
<v Speaker 2>a player you probably don't even know.

0:00:53.200 --> 0:00:55.280
<v Speaker 1>You probably don't even know where he went to school.

0:00:55.400 --> 0:00:58.040
<v Speaker 2>You probably don't even know what position he plays, Maybe

0:00:58.080 --> 0:01:00.320
<v Speaker 2>you don't even know what team he's on. But why

0:01:00.400 --> 0:01:04.560
<v Speaker 2>he's impactable. We will get into ad being an absolute

0:01:04.600 --> 0:01:08.399
<v Speaker 2>comedy show drawing inspiration from a very strange ass source,

0:01:08.840 --> 0:01:13.520
<v Speaker 2>and one Laker, one former Laker, being very mad. He's

0:01:13.560 --> 0:01:15.839
<v Speaker 2>not on the top seventy five Lakers list of all time.

0:01:15.880 --> 0:01:20.080
<v Speaker 1>And boy, is that a sketchy, funny comment. A lot

0:01:20.120 --> 0:01:21.880
<v Speaker 1>to get into. Nick, Let's drop that.

0:01:21.840 --> 0:01:33.840
<v Speaker 2>Beat, all right, we gotta talk about two things first up.

0:01:34.319 --> 0:01:37.440
<v Speaker 1>One, I have to say this, and I don't.

0:01:37.200 --> 0:01:39.520
<v Speaker 2>Know if you guys already know this, but if you

0:01:39.560 --> 0:01:43.440
<v Speaker 2>don't live in the DMV, which means DC Maryland, Virginia.

0:01:42.959 --> 0:01:46.839
<v Speaker 1>Has the worst sporting arenas in.

0:01:46.760 --> 0:01:51.400
<v Speaker 2>The entire country, like it's the worst, and we'll discuss that.

0:01:51.640 --> 0:01:54.080
<v Speaker 2>But two, we also need to discuss and talk about

0:01:54.120 --> 0:01:57.200
<v Speaker 2>load management. I think it's time for us people who

0:01:57.200 --> 0:01:59.640
<v Speaker 2>want to see games live to start.

0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:03.400
<v Speaker 1>We're not gonna take it. We need to We need

0:02:03.400 --> 0:02:04.080
<v Speaker 1>to talk about this.

0:02:04.480 --> 0:02:08.760
<v Speaker 2>I hear things about load management, I read things about

0:02:08.760 --> 0:02:13.360
<v Speaker 2>load management, but there is nothing quite like being on

0:02:13.520 --> 0:02:20.440
<v Speaker 2>the wrong side of a game and experiencing load management

0:02:20.560 --> 0:02:24.560
<v Speaker 2>for yourself. Sunday it went what the five fingers say

0:02:24.600 --> 0:02:28.000
<v Speaker 2>to the face? Slap that hit me right in the face.

0:02:28.200 --> 0:02:30.560
<v Speaker 1>I was planning on maybe going to see I don't know, the.

0:02:30.600 --> 0:02:35.360
<v Speaker 2>Utah Jazz, Fun Little Story, Fun Team, Lowry Markenen, Joel

0:02:35.520 --> 0:02:39.920
<v Speaker 2>Embiid don't really want to drive to Philadelphia specifically considering

0:02:39.960 --> 0:02:41.840
<v Speaker 2>that the place I was trying to go to to

0:02:41.880 --> 0:02:45.720
<v Speaker 2>return some clothes only exists in a Bloomingdale's. So I

0:02:45.880 --> 0:02:48.640
<v Speaker 2>wasn't gonna drive up there for no reason, specifically, not

0:02:49.040 --> 0:02:51.799
<v Speaker 2>just for Utah. Was I gonna drive up to see, Okay,

0:02:51.880 --> 0:02:54.400
<v Speaker 2>see versus the Knicks at the Garden Man, that's a

0:02:54.440 --> 0:02:55.200
<v Speaker 2>far drive too.

0:02:55.360 --> 0:02:59.639
<v Speaker 1>And then I was looking at my Ticketmaster. Actually was

0:02:59.680 --> 0:03:00.480
<v Speaker 1>the game time app.

0:03:00.520 --> 0:03:04.200
<v Speaker 2>We're gonna slander game time specifically to you game time.

0:03:04.480 --> 0:03:09.240
<v Speaker 2>And I saw the Wizards play the Memphis Grizzlies at

0:03:09.280 --> 0:03:10.320
<v Speaker 2>the Capitol One Arena.

0:03:11.040 --> 0:03:14.080
<v Speaker 1>What's this? Jaw? What I'm in?

0:03:14.480 --> 0:03:16.959
<v Speaker 2>I am all the way in absolutely Jaw. Never seen

0:03:17.000 --> 0:03:20.839
<v Speaker 2>him live, So he's mussy. He's mussy on TV. He's

0:03:20.919 --> 0:03:25.280
<v Speaker 2>mussy live. Got Desmond Baine he's rocking. You got Bradley Beal,

0:03:25.400 --> 0:03:29.840
<v Speaker 2>he's whatever, right, So you got Jaw and Bain coming

0:03:29.880 --> 0:03:34.000
<v Speaker 2>to Chocolate Sip Day. I'm gonna go watch him dunk

0:03:34.080 --> 0:03:35.320
<v Speaker 2>on everybody's head.

0:03:35.960 --> 0:03:37.640
<v Speaker 1>And I hate Wizards games. They suck.

0:03:37.720 --> 0:03:41.280
<v Speaker 2>They're the worst because well, I mean, the Wizards are

0:03:41.320 --> 0:03:43.440
<v Speaker 2>really not fun at all. They're not a fun team.

0:03:43.640 --> 0:03:46.560
<v Speaker 2>And I knew Bradley Beal has been injured, so it's whatever.

0:03:47.560 --> 0:03:55.080
<v Speaker 2>But like the arena gives gives really like some electronic

0:03:55.280 --> 0:03:58.200
<v Speaker 2>store vibes, do you know what I mean? Like you go,

0:03:58.400 --> 0:04:01.400
<v Speaker 2>you walk in and you're like, holy shit, it's brightened here.

0:04:01.800 --> 0:04:03.440
<v Speaker 1>Oh what is going on?

0:04:03.680 --> 0:04:06.640
<v Speaker 2>And I'm used to like Staples where Staples makes it

0:04:06.680 --> 0:04:10.520
<v Speaker 2>dim in there, it's like everything but the crowd or

0:04:10.560 --> 0:04:14.360
<v Speaker 2>everything but the court is dark. Right, everything but the

0:04:14.360 --> 0:04:16.719
<v Speaker 2>court is dark. Not a capital one. They want you

0:04:16.760 --> 0:04:19.960
<v Speaker 2>to see every pore in your neighbor's face. I swear

0:04:19.960 --> 0:04:22.760
<v Speaker 2>to God, they want you to buy a TV in there.

0:04:23.080 --> 0:04:26.600
<v Speaker 1>I tell you what. It is so bright it gave.

0:04:26.440 --> 0:04:30.200
<v Speaker 2>Me a migraine. It never gets dim except for the pregame.

0:04:29.800 --> 0:04:33.080
<v Speaker 1>Warm up warm up thing right and the vibe.

0:04:33.360 --> 0:04:36.000
<v Speaker 2>Ugh. I swear to you, I put this on my

0:04:36.120 --> 0:04:41.560
<v Speaker 2>mother's life. The loudest it gotten there, promise you, the

0:04:41.680 --> 0:04:42.760
<v Speaker 2>loudest it gotten.

0:04:42.800 --> 0:04:45.039
<v Speaker 1>There was for an infant race.

0:04:45.640 --> 0:04:49.640
<v Speaker 2>Would you say, trista a baby race? There were babies

0:04:49.680 --> 0:04:55.440
<v Speaker 2>crawling on the floor. They had a race, and people

0:04:55.560 --> 0:05:00.680
<v Speaker 2>were louder for that then the basketball game. They paid

0:05:00.760 --> 0:05:01.520
<v Speaker 2>to see.

0:05:02.240 --> 0:05:06.400
<v Speaker 1>What is happening here? But for Jaw, I will withstand

0:05:06.440 --> 0:05:06.960
<v Speaker 1>all of this.

0:05:07.360 --> 0:05:12.279
<v Speaker 2>I will come through for Jaw, because Jaw delivers for

0:05:12.520 --> 0:05:13.960
<v Speaker 2>me every time.

0:05:14.880 --> 0:05:20.200
<v Speaker 1>So I'm sitting at dinner, waiting, excited.

0:05:20.040 --> 0:05:23.320
<v Speaker 2>Doing a little one game parlay action for this Memphis

0:05:23.400 --> 0:05:26.440
<v Speaker 2>Grizzlies Wizard's game and all of this. All of a sudden,

0:05:26.440 --> 0:05:30.120
<v Speaker 2>what do I see, Like, why isn't the Why isn't

0:05:30.240 --> 0:05:34.440
<v Speaker 2>Jaws prop up on the bedmgm app? Why is a

0:05:34.480 --> 0:05:38.200
<v Speaker 2>Desmond Baines prop on the bedmgm app. I'm about forty

0:05:38.200 --> 0:05:41.159
<v Speaker 2>five minutes from the game time too, Like, we bought

0:05:41.160 --> 0:05:45.520
<v Speaker 2>the tickets. They're expensive because Jaw's coming to town. They're

0:05:45.600 --> 0:05:49.560
<v Speaker 2>behind the bench of the visitors. Oh yeah, we were stunting,

0:05:50.839 --> 0:05:54.039
<v Speaker 2>And I see this a little Fantasy Labs update right

0:05:54.040 --> 0:05:56.159
<v Speaker 2>as I'm starting to put the pieces together, you know

0:05:56.160 --> 0:05:59.200
<v Speaker 2>what I mean, starting to really struggle to eat the

0:05:59.200 --> 0:06:01.600
<v Speaker 2>rest of my talk because things are starting to come

0:06:01.640 --> 0:06:03.920
<v Speaker 2>clearer into focus about what's about to take place.

0:06:04.160 --> 0:06:08.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Jaw, late scratch, he was fine.

0:06:09.120 --> 0:06:11.960
<v Speaker 2>He played the rest of the game against the Minnesota Timberwolves,

0:06:11.960 --> 0:06:15.400
<v Speaker 2>which they did cover for me because of Jaw. Desmond

0:06:15.440 --> 0:06:21.479
<v Speaker 2>Bane sprain Toe totally get that, but Jaw, no fucking Jaw.

0:06:23.120 --> 0:06:25.000
<v Speaker 2>So what I knew I was about to see was

0:06:25.040 --> 0:06:28.720
<v Speaker 2>a G League matchup. You had no Jaren Jackson, no

0:06:28.880 --> 0:06:35.279
<v Speaker 2>Desmond Bane, no Zire Williams, no jaw and no Beal.

0:06:35.760 --> 0:06:37.760
<v Speaker 1>What am I seeing? What is this?

0:06:38.279 --> 0:06:41.200
<v Speaker 2>I won't bore you with the details, but it was

0:06:41.279 --> 0:06:42.520
<v Speaker 2>like watching Pink dry.

0:06:42.800 --> 0:06:43.599
<v Speaker 1>I don't even know.

0:06:44.040 --> 0:06:47.039
<v Speaker 2>Over under on Airballs was twelve and a half and

0:06:47.120 --> 0:06:48.480
<v Speaker 2>I think it was the over.

0:06:48.680 --> 0:06:54.599
<v Speaker 1>I saw so many David Roddy airballs. I like David Roddy,

0:06:54.680 --> 0:06:58.600
<v Speaker 1>nice player. Got to see a little Kenny lofton Junior

0:06:59.040 --> 0:07:03.719
<v Speaker 1>in there. What am I seeing? I literally, swear to God,

0:07:04.640 --> 0:07:06.159
<v Speaker 1>swear to God, was yelling.

0:07:06.240 --> 0:07:09.680
<v Speaker 2>I was probably six rows from the court and I'm

0:07:09.800 --> 0:07:12.200
<v Speaker 2>yelling at Steven Adams underneath the basket.

0:07:12.800 --> 0:07:20.280
<v Speaker 1>Chris dabs Porzingis' is food? Eat him, eat him, eat him.

0:07:20.320 --> 0:07:23.240
<v Speaker 2>Everybody's so mad at me because obviously I'm the only

0:07:23.280 --> 0:07:25.360
<v Speaker 2>one rooting for the Grizzlies of there, because I've got

0:07:25.400 --> 0:07:27.400
<v Speaker 2>a bet on the Grizzlies, and shit, I want to

0:07:27.440 --> 0:07:30.560
<v Speaker 2>see him win. I hate the Wizards, they are nothing

0:07:30.640 --> 0:07:34.880
<v Speaker 2>but just I soar in the middle of Chinatown messing

0:07:34.960 --> 0:07:39.920
<v Speaker 2>up my traffic. So it got me thinking, you know

0:07:39.960 --> 0:07:44.000
<v Speaker 2>what we need? We need star player insurance.

0:07:44.280 --> 0:07:46.560
<v Speaker 1>That's what we need. We need it. We need load.

0:07:46.440 --> 0:07:50.000
<v Speaker 2>Management insurance for these game time apps. Because I tried

0:07:50.000 --> 0:07:51.760
<v Speaker 2>to get my money back and they were like, ah,

0:07:51.880 --> 0:07:52.480
<v Speaker 2>you're funny.

0:07:52.880 --> 0:07:55.200
<v Speaker 1>No you're not getting your money back.

0:07:55.280 --> 0:07:57.840
<v Speaker 2>What the fuck are you smoking? And I was like,

0:07:57.960 --> 0:08:00.360
<v Speaker 2>that's fine. I'm never going to you again. But if

0:08:00.360 --> 0:08:03.880
<v Speaker 2>you're like a seat geek or a stub Hub and

0:08:03.920 --> 0:08:06.840
<v Speaker 2>you tell me, if you just give me a list,

0:08:07.120 --> 0:08:13.600
<v Speaker 2>just give me a list, jaw Dame, Steph Brawn, Jannis Luca, Like,

0:08:13.640 --> 0:08:17.960
<v Speaker 2>it's probably only fifteen twenty names, right, there's not It's

0:08:18.000 --> 0:08:20.760
<v Speaker 2>not Jimmy Butler. Jimmy Butler's not on the list, right,

0:08:21.280 --> 0:08:24.760
<v Speaker 2>No shade to Jimmy Butler, but he's not on the list. Okay,

0:08:25.440 --> 0:08:29.800
<v Speaker 2>it's there's a very select few of people that I,

0:08:29.880 --> 0:08:33.360
<v Speaker 2>as a local or someone traveling out of town, are

0:08:33.440 --> 0:08:37.000
<v Speaker 2>coming to watch. Shockingly, Pallow is already on that list.

0:08:38.120 --> 0:08:40.480
<v Speaker 2>And if they are a late scratch and they played

0:08:40.520 --> 0:08:44.120
<v Speaker 2>the game before and they get scratched fucking three hours

0:08:44.160 --> 0:08:47.319
<v Speaker 2>before game time or less, I should get my money back,

0:08:47.520 --> 0:08:48.520
<v Speaker 2>no questions asked.

0:08:49.280 --> 0:08:51.680
<v Speaker 1>And I tell you what, this is a billion dollar idea.

0:08:52.679 --> 0:08:55.800
<v Speaker 2>This is I don't think if you think to yourself,

0:08:55.880 --> 0:08:58.960
<v Speaker 2>if you're going to go see let's just say, Jae,

0:08:59.040 --> 0:09:01.480
<v Speaker 2>you live in Portland, go jaw no, jaw no, Dame,

0:09:01.640 --> 0:09:04.040
<v Speaker 2>what are you thinking? I mean, it's just anthroty Simon,

0:09:04.040 --> 0:09:06.760
<v Speaker 2>and maybe efforty Simon's a scratch too. Maybe it's just

0:09:07.600 --> 0:09:09.920
<v Speaker 2>Shade and sharp on limited minutes and Drew you banks.

0:09:10.040 --> 0:09:13.520
<v Speaker 2>Imagine how pissed you would be spending one hundred and

0:09:13.559 --> 0:09:16.440
<v Speaker 2>fifty dollars per ticket. You just saved your little money up,

0:09:16.440 --> 0:09:19.400
<v Speaker 2>your little shekels up, and now you get to watch trash,

0:09:19.559 --> 0:09:20.800
<v Speaker 2>you get to watch Summer League.

0:09:21.080 --> 0:09:24.200
<v Speaker 1>Good job. So I would be as loyal as Dame

0:09:24.240 --> 0:09:25.680
<v Speaker 1>Willard is to the Blazers.

0:09:26.120 --> 0:09:28.600
<v Speaker 2>If I could get that from a secondary market, if

0:09:28.640 --> 0:09:31.040
<v Speaker 2>I could find a ticket broker that would say, listen,

0:09:31.559 --> 0:09:34.760
<v Speaker 2>we got you. We'll get Alliance or some sort of

0:09:35.120 --> 0:09:37.920
<v Speaker 2>under rider to give you insurance, and we will pay

0:09:37.960 --> 0:09:39.640
<v Speaker 2>you out. We won't make you go through all these

0:09:39.760 --> 0:09:42.520
<v Speaker 2>little hoops and whistles, you know, and then just never

0:09:42.600 --> 0:09:44.960
<v Speaker 2>pay you, you know, because that happens too. But like

0:09:45.120 --> 0:09:47.680
<v Speaker 2>it is, without this, I may never do this again.

0:09:48.000 --> 0:09:49.920
<v Speaker 2>Like I'm never gonna go see a game at Capitol

0:09:49.960 --> 0:09:53.760
<v Speaker 2>Win Arena. And also by the way they spent seventy

0:09:53.880 --> 0:09:55.199
<v Speaker 2>I had to look this up in the arena.

0:09:55.240 --> 0:09:59.560
<v Speaker 1>I was like, this place sucks the way that it's constructed.

0:09:59.640 --> 0:10:02.600
<v Speaker 2>And I just got back from Detroit Little Caesars Arena,

0:10:03.480 --> 0:10:06.200
<v Speaker 2>and I won't waste your time with this. We'll move

0:10:06.200 --> 0:10:10.400
<v Speaker 2>on quite shortly. But the way that arena is constructed

0:10:10.559 --> 0:10:15.160
<v Speaker 2>compared to this steep ass, like we need a shallow, nice, little, smooth,

0:10:15.240 --> 0:10:15.920
<v Speaker 2>shallow bull.

0:10:16.200 --> 0:10:18.880
<v Speaker 1>Don't make people sit in the nosebleeds for no reason,

0:10:19.400 --> 0:10:21.080
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean. Don't make them be up

0:10:21.240 --> 0:10:24.240
<v Speaker 1>stacked on top of each other. Gross.

0:10:24.400 --> 0:10:27.600
<v Speaker 2>They put seventy million dollars into the Capitol winn Arena

0:10:27.800 --> 0:10:29.079
<v Speaker 2>in twenty nineteen.

0:10:28.960 --> 0:10:32.440
<v Speaker 1>Twenty nineteen. That was right before the pandemic. There's a place,

0:10:32.600 --> 0:10:36.520
<v Speaker 1>piece of shit. Arena. There's no stuff, there's no bar,

0:10:36.800 --> 0:10:40.199
<v Speaker 1>there's no vibe, there's no lighting. I'm out, I'm over it.

0:10:55.520 --> 0:11:00.199
<v Speaker 2>We're about a month into the season now and we've

0:11:00.200 --> 0:11:03.600
<v Speaker 2>got some surprise of teams, teams who have come out

0:11:03.600 --> 0:11:09.080
<v Speaker 2>of nowhere, teams that probably aren't gonna be like amazing

0:11:09.720 --> 0:11:11.880
<v Speaker 2>as well, but they are fun.

0:11:12.360 --> 0:11:13.559
<v Speaker 1>They're not contenders.

0:11:13.800 --> 0:11:16.959
<v Speaker 2>We did a little breakdown on the Kings, and people

0:11:16.960 --> 0:11:19.280
<v Speaker 2>were like, hey, like, break down my team, like that,

0:11:20.000 --> 0:11:20.360
<v Speaker 2>come on.

0:11:20.360 --> 0:11:22.719
<v Speaker 1>Bring that energy for us, and so let's do that.

0:11:22.960 --> 0:11:25.040
<v Speaker 2>Like, if you're some of the lesser talked about teams

0:11:25.040 --> 0:11:27.360
<v Speaker 2>around the league, let's go into them.

0:11:27.400 --> 0:11:30.080
<v Speaker 1>I've got to one good, one bad. I can't get.

0:11:29.920 --> 0:11:31.840
<v Speaker 2>Into all of them, and I'm going to continue to

0:11:31.880 --> 0:11:33.480
<v Speaker 2>rolling them out. Maybe we'll do some more later on

0:11:33.520 --> 0:11:36.920
<v Speaker 2>this week, But the first one that we need to

0:11:36.920 --> 0:11:38.120
<v Speaker 2>start talking about.

0:11:39.360 --> 0:11:43.600
<v Speaker 1>Is the Okay, see Thunder. What's happening there? Holy shit?

0:11:44.120 --> 0:11:48.720
<v Speaker 2>They are absolutely flying. They scored how much they are

0:11:48.760 --> 0:11:53.200
<v Speaker 2>putting up numbers going straight total. They were eleven and

0:11:53.200 --> 0:11:56.079
<v Speaker 2>a half point dogs. That just tells you eleven and

0:11:56.160 --> 0:11:59.480
<v Speaker 2>a half point underdogs to the Boston Celtics, and they

0:11:59.520 --> 0:12:03.480
<v Speaker 2>were ahead the entire game. I was like, these motherfuckers

0:12:03.520 --> 0:12:06.839
<v Speaker 2>are gonna win this game. Holy shit, they're gonna They

0:12:06.880 --> 0:12:11.240
<v Speaker 2>took Boston to the brink. Tatum had a good jillion,

0:12:11.760 --> 0:12:15.400
<v Speaker 2>and they still barely beat the Thunder. They put the

0:12:15.440 --> 0:12:18.600
<v Speaker 2>fear of God into them. Boy, the Thunder can score.

0:12:18.840 --> 0:12:22.240
<v Speaker 2>They can score, and they don't even have their complete roster.

0:12:23.040 --> 0:12:26.120
<v Speaker 2>Like a team that went to the finals and you

0:12:26.200 --> 0:12:29.400
<v Speaker 2>take them. They just hung around and just hung.

0:12:29.280 --> 0:12:30.600
<v Speaker 1>Around and hung around and hung around.

0:12:31.840 --> 0:12:35.720
<v Speaker 2>Shay who is, by the way, I don't know, top

0:12:36.160 --> 0:12:37.800
<v Speaker 2>five favorite player to watch.

0:12:37.880 --> 0:12:41.680
<v Speaker 1>Maybe maybe not that high, but it's very high. He's now.

0:12:42.200 --> 0:12:46.120
<v Speaker 2>He put a damn near forty on the Celtics. Jalen

0:12:46.160 --> 0:12:48.920
<v Speaker 2>Williams from Santa Clara. He's gonna be a stud. He's

0:12:48.960 --> 0:12:51.480
<v Speaker 2>only played three games this year. He came in, was

0:12:51.679 --> 0:12:52.920
<v Speaker 2>very productive as a starter.

0:12:53.080 --> 0:12:54.880
<v Speaker 1>I think he had fourteen points for them.

0:12:55.040 --> 0:12:57.960
<v Speaker 2>He did his thing, really nice little mid range game

0:12:58.000 --> 0:12:59.880
<v Speaker 2>for Jalen Williams. By the way, they do have two

0:13:00.040 --> 0:13:02.319
<v Speaker 2>Yela Williams. It's the one from Santa Clara. I must

0:13:02.880 --> 0:13:08.200
<v Speaker 2>just give that out. Very balanced effort all the starting five. Poku, Yeah,

0:13:08.240 --> 0:13:12.480
<v Speaker 2>Poku was fucking solid. Yes, Poko's like my guy. He's

0:13:12.480 --> 0:13:15.520
<v Speaker 2>like a little wish Chet, you know, like a little

0:13:15.559 --> 0:13:20.160
<v Speaker 2>more a little more chaotic, a little like more feeling himself.

0:13:20.600 --> 0:13:23.880
<v Speaker 2>He's like if Chet, if you got Chat at the

0:13:23.920 --> 0:13:26.400
<v Speaker 2>dollar store, you know what I mean? Like, I love Chet,

0:13:26.480 --> 0:13:29.319
<v Speaker 2>I love Poco. He's clearly not Chet, but he does

0:13:29.360 --> 0:13:31.480
<v Speaker 2>a lot of the same things that Chet does and

0:13:31.600 --> 0:13:36.120
<v Speaker 2>he is balling. Holy shit, he what he got twenty five?

0:13:36.160 --> 0:13:40.520
<v Speaker 2>We'll talk about him in a second. Mind you, all

0:13:40.559 --> 0:13:44.160
<v Speaker 2>of the starting five were double figures, almost twenty points

0:13:44.160 --> 0:13:44.760
<v Speaker 2>by all of them.

0:13:44.760 --> 0:13:46.600
<v Speaker 1>They had one hundred and twenty two points, and they

0:13:46.600 --> 0:13:47.440
<v Speaker 1>barely got any.

0:13:47.280 --> 0:13:49.520
<v Speaker 2>Production out of their bench because why they don't have one.

0:13:49.600 --> 0:13:52.880
<v Speaker 2>They don't really have a bench. Okay, so Giddy Dort

0:13:52.920 --> 0:13:58.400
<v Speaker 2>Poco all almost scored, all almost scored twenty this coming

0:13:58.440 --> 0:14:01.520
<v Speaker 2>off the heels of gold up into the Garden and

0:14:01.559 --> 0:14:04.199
<v Speaker 2>putting the straight SmackDown on the Knicks.

0:14:04.240 --> 0:14:08.320
<v Speaker 1>To the point, think about this, The Okase.

0:14:08.080 --> 0:14:12.920
<v Speaker 2>Thunder destroyed the New York Knicks so badly there are

0:14:13.000 --> 0:14:17.640
<v Speaker 2>now think pieces being written about Tom Thibodeau being fired.

0:14:18.760 --> 0:14:20.120
<v Speaker 1>That's how much they did.

0:14:20.440 --> 0:14:22.840
<v Speaker 2>That's what they did to them, one hundred and forty

0:14:22.880 --> 0:14:27.080
<v Speaker 2>five points in the garden. The thunder put one hundred

0:14:27.080 --> 0:14:30.960
<v Speaker 2>and forty five points on a team that's supposed to

0:14:31.040 --> 0:14:36.520
<v Speaker 2>be built around their defense. And now Thibodeau is on

0:14:36.600 --> 0:14:37.280
<v Speaker 2>the hot seat.

0:14:37.560 --> 0:14:42.040
<v Speaker 1>Mind you, chet Holmgren, the real chet Hoolmegren is out

0:14:42.080 --> 0:14:44.200
<v Speaker 1>for the year. They don't even have their number.

0:14:44.040 --> 0:14:49.920
<v Speaker 2>Two pick, SGA still picking apart every single defense without

0:14:49.920 --> 0:14:53.920
<v Speaker 2>a secondary score. And he's just he's gonna be an

0:14:53.920 --> 0:14:56.440
<v Speaker 2>All Star this year. He's gonna probably make all NBA.

0:14:57.200 --> 0:15:01.960
<v Speaker 2>He's I mean, he's putting up forty regularly two way player,

0:15:02.320 --> 0:15:06.720
<v Speaker 2>improved three point shot impossible to stop every defense they

0:15:06.720 --> 0:15:09.200
<v Speaker 2>throw at him. He just knows exactly how to read it.

0:15:09.320 --> 0:15:11.560
<v Speaker 2>He's like little plan Like he's like, uh, what is

0:15:11.600 --> 0:15:13.000
<v Speaker 2>that called? That little chess movie?

0:15:13.600 --> 0:15:18.520
<v Speaker 1>God, oh man, he's you know what I'm talking about.

0:15:18.560 --> 0:15:21.960
<v Speaker 1>He was like Google's Chess movie in the middle of it.

0:15:21.880 --> 0:15:25.000
<v Speaker 2>The Queen's gambit where he sees all the defenses on

0:15:25.120 --> 0:15:27.680
<v Speaker 2>the ceiling and he's like, yep, just go this way,

0:15:27.800 --> 0:15:30.400
<v Speaker 2>go that way, slash through him that way. He is

0:15:30.880 --> 0:15:33.360
<v Speaker 2>imagine when he gets his jelly to the peanut butter,

0:15:33.720 --> 0:15:36.360
<v Speaker 2>when he gets chat, it's gonna be curtains. It is

0:15:36.400 --> 0:15:38.080
<v Speaker 2>gonna be absolute curtains for the.

0:15:38.000 --> 0:15:38.520
<v Speaker 1>Rest of the league.

0:15:38.560 --> 0:15:40.520
<v Speaker 2>They put up one hundred and forty five points without

0:15:40.640 --> 0:15:45.280
<v Speaker 2>chet Holmgren. What would they have done with Chet Holmgren? Sheesh,

0:15:45.440 --> 0:15:48.200
<v Speaker 2>think about how good Shay is when he's off the floor.

0:15:49.040 --> 0:15:50.800
<v Speaker 1>They're just trash. They're just horrible.

0:15:51.080 --> 0:15:54.040
<v Speaker 2>Like they are one of the worst offensive teams in

0:15:54.080 --> 0:15:57.000
<v Speaker 2>the league. When Shade does not play. It's just literally

0:15:57.040 --> 0:16:00.320
<v Speaker 2>that simple. That is how much gravity he's bring to

0:16:00.360 --> 0:16:02.560
<v Speaker 2>the team. And we talked about Poku a little earlier

0:16:02.800 --> 0:16:05.680
<v Speaker 2>about the Summer League. He's scoring twenty five percent more

0:16:05.720 --> 0:16:08.840
<v Speaker 2>this year than he had last year, progression.

0:16:08.600 --> 0:16:10.960
<v Speaker 1>What we would call on display.

0:16:11.360 --> 0:16:15.280
<v Speaker 2>Just in the game against the Bucks, he had a

0:16:15.360 --> 0:16:16.680
<v Speaker 2>full stat sheet.

0:16:16.720 --> 0:16:20.120
<v Speaker 1>Blocks, dimes, rebounds.

0:16:19.600 --> 0:16:23.520
<v Speaker 2>Pokus stats, just absolutely through the roof trying to get

0:16:23.720 --> 0:16:26.800
<v Speaker 2>get him full for you because you can't really even

0:16:26.840 --> 0:16:29.720
<v Speaker 2>get Poku stats if you just google it because there's

0:16:29.720 --> 0:16:31.000
<v Speaker 2>a bunch of poku's I guess.

0:16:31.200 --> 0:16:33.640
<v Speaker 1>So game against the Bucks he.

0:16:33.680 --> 0:16:41.160
<v Speaker 2>Had ten rebounds, two blocks, seventeen points and two assists.

0:16:40.880 --> 0:16:43.800
<v Speaker 1>Just ridiculous, just absolutely ridiculous.

0:16:43.960 --> 0:16:47.560
<v Speaker 2>Lou Dort just got paid, as we know, finding his

0:16:47.640 --> 0:16:50.960
<v Speaker 2>offensive stroke now that they've hired Chip England Josh Giddy

0:16:51.320 --> 0:16:54.960
<v Speaker 2>averaging fifteen seven and six, he's raised his three point

0:16:55.000 --> 0:16:58.440
<v Speaker 2>shooting by seven percent. It's still very early, like this

0:16:58.600 --> 0:17:01.840
<v Speaker 2>is a squad. If you are not watching, okay, see,

0:17:01.920 --> 0:17:05.640
<v Speaker 2>you are missing out. This is a fun ass, fun

0:17:05.680 --> 0:17:08.679
<v Speaker 2>ass team. They're shooting thirty nine percent this season on

0:17:08.720 --> 0:17:12.240
<v Speaker 2>shots over twenty feet, which is three percent improvement over

0:17:12.320 --> 0:17:16.440
<v Speaker 2>last year. That's because, like I said before, Chipping's gonna

0:17:16.440 --> 0:17:16.920
<v Speaker 2>come in here.

0:17:17.000 --> 0:17:17.600
<v Speaker 1>What did he do?

0:17:17.800 --> 0:17:20.880
<v Speaker 2>He comes into a team and every single time, without fail,

0:17:21.040 --> 0:17:24.240
<v Speaker 2>they increase their shooting percentage by three percent every time.

0:17:24.560 --> 0:17:27.560
<v Speaker 1>That's what he does. Shot doctor three point shooting league.

0:17:28.160 --> 0:17:30.240
<v Speaker 2>And even though maybe three percent doesn't seem like a

0:17:30.240 --> 0:17:32.639
<v Speaker 2>lot a lot, but like that's now they're fourteenth in

0:17:32.680 --> 0:17:33.080
<v Speaker 2>the league.

0:17:33.960 --> 0:17:35.960
<v Speaker 1>Where they were they were, where were they at last year?

0:17:36.000 --> 0:17:39.439
<v Speaker 2>They were at the bottom, So that three percent changes everything,

0:17:39.600 --> 0:17:42.520
<v Speaker 2>and that is why they can score. They're averaging. It's

0:17:42.560 --> 0:17:45.639
<v Speaker 2>just it's just been absolutely ridiculous. Back to Shay really quickly.

0:17:45.720 --> 0:17:50.240
<v Speaker 2>He's averaging thirty one, six and five. Shay is averaging

0:17:50.280 --> 0:17:54.720
<v Speaker 2>thirty one points per game, six assists, five rebounds per game.

0:17:55.440 --> 0:17:58.400
<v Speaker 2>He has two steals per game, one and a half

0:17:58.440 --> 0:17:59.480
<v Speaker 2>blocks per game.

0:18:00.200 --> 0:18:02.920
<v Speaker 1>What the fuck? This is what JJ Reddick just said.

0:18:03.080 --> 0:18:06.840
<v Speaker 2>You are missing a show if you're not watching Oklahoma City. Yeah,

0:18:06.840 --> 0:18:10.120
<v Speaker 2>that's exactly right. That is exactly right. In any given year,

0:18:10.440 --> 0:18:13.520
<v Speaker 2>those numbers are first team all NBA numbers.

0:18:14.680 --> 0:18:15.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, there's a reason that.

0:18:15.880 --> 0:18:18.359
<v Speaker 2>The shee is the lead target for all these different

0:18:18.560 --> 0:18:21.639
<v Speaker 2>Again literally, now, all these trade rumors about the Knicks

0:18:21.640 --> 0:18:25.240
<v Speaker 2>going after Sha, He's broken them. He has broken them,

0:18:25.560 --> 0:18:28.720
<v Speaker 2>torched them for thirty seven against the Knicks have thirty

0:18:28.760 --> 0:18:30.280
<v Speaker 2>seven against the Celtics.

0:18:30.920 --> 0:18:34.040
<v Speaker 1>And this is like a very unselfish offensive scheme that

0:18:34.240 --> 0:18:38.000
<v Speaker 1>eight players getting double digits a week ago, first time in.

0:18:37.960 --> 0:18:40.560
<v Speaker 2>The team history that they've done that. You add shed

0:18:40.600 --> 0:18:43.719
<v Speaker 2>in there, man, is this team is already a problem.

0:18:43.720 --> 0:18:45.280
<v Speaker 2>They're already covering big numbers.

0:18:45.320 --> 0:18:45.840
<v Speaker 1>I tell you what.

0:18:46.160 --> 0:18:48.760
<v Speaker 2>You add back in chet And they're definitely getting a

0:18:48.800 --> 0:18:52.720
<v Speaker 2>top five pick, right, It's probably gonna be someone good.

0:18:53.040 --> 0:18:56.000
<v Speaker 2>It's probably gonna make them even more dangerous SGA though

0:18:56.040 --> 0:19:01.320
<v Speaker 2>my prediction definitely an All Star. Definitely, I'd say second team.

0:19:01.840 --> 0:19:09.800
<v Speaker 2>Tell you what that team is buyer. On the flip

0:19:09.800 --> 0:19:12.960
<v Speaker 2>side of the coin, we just talked about, okay see,

0:19:13.000 --> 0:19:17.719
<v Speaker 2>and how exciting they are, how fun they are, how

0:19:17.960 --> 0:19:22.040
<v Speaker 2>impressive this roster is, how they're just really a piece

0:19:22.119 --> 0:19:25.399
<v Speaker 2>or two away from being really competing, and they're like

0:19:25.440 --> 0:19:28.840
<v Speaker 2>winning games they're not supposed to win. So that's on

0:19:28.840 --> 0:19:32.920
<v Speaker 2>one side. What is happening with the Houston Rockets? Why

0:19:33.000 --> 0:19:35.800
<v Speaker 2>is nobody talking about them? How bad are the Houston

0:19:35.880 --> 0:19:39.600
<v Speaker 2>Rockets right now? They are fucking trash. I'm sorry, there's

0:19:39.600 --> 0:19:41.560
<v Speaker 2>people in my youtubes Oh, you cuss too much, too

0:19:41.560 --> 0:19:43.119
<v Speaker 2>many cuss words, too many F bombs.

0:19:43.119 --> 0:19:46.240
<v Speaker 1>I watch it with my kids. I'm sorry. If you're

0:19:46.280 --> 0:19:49.280
<v Speaker 1>watching the Houston Rockets right now, you'll know what I'm

0:19:49.280 --> 0:19:53.040
<v Speaker 1>talking about. Why are we not holding them accountable? Why?

0:19:53.440 --> 0:19:56.640
<v Speaker 2>Because we want them to just be good? We want

0:19:56.640 --> 0:19:59.960
<v Speaker 2>them to be fun. They're a cute Little League pass team, right.

0:20:00.200 --> 0:20:03.080
<v Speaker 2>I love Jalen Green and listen, I'm kind of a contrarian.

0:20:03.480 --> 0:20:05.600
<v Speaker 2>So when Bill Simmons said all those mean things about

0:20:05.680 --> 0:20:07.160
<v Speaker 2>Jalen Green, I was like.

0:20:07.200 --> 0:20:11.399
<v Speaker 1>No, we love Jalen Green. Jalen Green is a winning player.

0:20:11.520 --> 0:20:14.440
<v Speaker 2>And I'm like, in my heart of hearts, like if

0:20:14.480 --> 0:20:16.760
<v Speaker 2>I was just me and you in the lamppost, is

0:20:16.800 --> 0:20:18.280
<v Speaker 2>he I don't know.

0:20:18.960 --> 0:20:21.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't quite know if he is yet. I'm not

0:20:21.920 --> 0:20:23.840
<v Speaker 1>sure I want to think he is.

0:20:24.160 --> 0:20:27.320
<v Speaker 2>He shoots a lot, He's a bucket, we know that,

0:20:28.119 --> 0:20:29.119
<v Speaker 2>but does that matter?

0:20:29.280 --> 0:20:32.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, Like Paul George's bucket too. He hasn't

0:20:32.480 --> 0:20:33.480
<v Speaker 1>won a damn thing.

0:20:34.720 --> 0:20:37.159
<v Speaker 2>They had to get rid of, like pieces on this

0:20:37.320 --> 0:20:41.240
<v Speaker 2>Rockets team because they were also buckets that weren't winning players.

0:20:42.440 --> 0:20:43.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't know.

0:20:43.160 --> 0:20:46.760
<v Speaker 2>And now things are boiling over all, right, not only

0:20:46.800 --> 0:20:49.000
<v Speaker 2>are they losing games, which is what we've expected that

0:20:49.040 --> 0:20:51.199
<v Speaker 2>they would do. They're two and twelve, so they're one

0:20:51.200 --> 0:20:52.440
<v Speaker 2>of the worst teams in the league. They're going to

0:20:52.480 --> 0:20:54.600
<v Speaker 2>continue to be. We've got teams that are tanking, that

0:20:54.640 --> 0:20:57.000
<v Speaker 2>are five hundred, So what are they They're like, they

0:20:57.040 --> 0:20:59.720
<v Speaker 2>just don't even care at all, but they are. Now

0:20:59.800 --> 0:21:03.159
<v Speaker 2>things are boiling over to the point where frustration is

0:21:03.280 --> 0:21:08.160
<v Speaker 2>leaking out onto the floor. Veteran Eric Gordon, who god

0:21:08.240 --> 0:21:10.879
<v Speaker 2>knows why he's even still there, why a team hasn't

0:21:10.920 --> 0:21:13.880
<v Speaker 2>saved him, He's fed up with his teammates.

0:21:14.320 --> 0:21:17.160
<v Speaker 1>This is what he said postgame. We didn't play our game.

0:21:17.480 --> 0:21:20.720
<v Speaker 2>We didn't have energy, we didn't play with togetherness, and

0:21:20.880 --> 0:21:23.119
<v Speaker 2>we got the result. That happens if you have a

0:21:23.160 --> 0:21:26.359
<v Speaker 2>winning mentality. Moving the ball is something that you should

0:21:26.359 --> 0:21:30.920
<v Speaker 2>do pretty common. Yeah, believing in your teammates and believing

0:21:30.960 --> 0:21:34.080
<v Speaker 2>in what you should do, that's the way it goes

0:21:34.119 --> 0:21:35.160
<v Speaker 2>when you're trying to win.

0:21:35.440 --> 0:21:36.560
<v Speaker 1>We are not doing that.

0:21:37.400 --> 0:21:40.359
<v Speaker 2>It's very tough. It's been the same thing year in

0:21:40.880 --> 0:21:44.200
<v Speaker 2>year out, game to game. It's a long season. When

0:21:44.240 --> 0:21:47.960
<v Speaker 2>we have games like this early on, it's tough. Yes,

0:21:48.760 --> 0:21:51.159
<v Speaker 2>and we've seen this It's like, these guys will not

0:21:51.240 --> 0:21:54.120
<v Speaker 2>pass each other the ball if they're wide open. It's

0:21:54.280 --> 0:21:56.800
<v Speaker 2>it's like when you go to Equinox. It's not exactly

0:21:56.840 --> 0:21:58.480
<v Speaker 2>like this, but you know what I mean. It's like

0:21:58.480 --> 0:22:00.760
<v Speaker 2>when you go to Equinox and you're like the new

0:22:00.800 --> 0:22:03.879
<v Speaker 2>person on the court for the lunchtime run, and it

0:22:03.920 --> 0:22:07.240
<v Speaker 2>doesn't matter if you've got seven feet of space. They

0:22:07.240 --> 0:22:10.720
<v Speaker 2>are not passing you the ball at all. Not doesn't

0:22:10.720 --> 0:22:13.880
<v Speaker 2>matter what kind of screens you're setting, defense, you're playing,

0:22:14.520 --> 0:22:17.280
<v Speaker 2>how good you looked in the little pregame warm up thing,

0:22:17.560 --> 0:22:19.919
<v Speaker 2>how many shots you've hitting up, you're not getting the ball.

0:22:20.160 --> 0:22:23.040
<v Speaker 2>That's the Houston Rockets, but with all of them, it's

0:22:23.080 --> 0:22:26.160
<v Speaker 2>like every single player on the court is that new

0:22:26.160 --> 0:22:29.240
<v Speaker 2>person at the Equinox run. If that other person has

0:22:29.280 --> 0:22:33.240
<v Speaker 2>the ball, like, nope, not passing? Do you Jabari Smith

0:22:33.359 --> 0:22:34.920
<v Speaker 2>underneath the basket? Wide open?

0:22:35.119 --> 0:22:38.560
<v Speaker 1>Fuck off? I'm gonna shoot this dirty bartter? What is

0:22:38.720 --> 0:22:39.320
<v Speaker 1>going on?

0:22:39.760 --> 0:22:43.239
<v Speaker 2>Do you know what it means when a veteran has

0:22:43.359 --> 0:22:46.640
<v Speaker 2>been on a losing team and he finally decides he's

0:22:46.640 --> 0:22:48.480
<v Speaker 2>gonna call out that team publicly.

0:22:49.119 --> 0:22:51.760
<v Speaker 1>It means he's been saying it privately for a while.

0:22:51.680 --> 0:22:54.679
<v Speaker 2>Right like they are being and he said it, this

0:22:54.760 --> 0:22:56.399
<v Speaker 2>is a selfish team.

0:22:56.600 --> 0:22:59.800
<v Speaker 1>This is a selfish team. You can feel in his voice,

0:23:00.440 --> 0:23:01.359
<v Speaker 1>what am I doing here?

0:23:01.520 --> 0:23:05.560
<v Speaker 2>What is this? The resignation in his tone is palpable.

0:23:06.280 --> 0:23:09.800
<v Speaker 2>And that is what happens when you're thirty seven, which

0:23:09.840 --> 0:23:12.800
<v Speaker 2>is what he is, on a team that's on track

0:23:13.000 --> 0:23:15.920
<v Speaker 2>for the third straight year to be one of the

0:23:15.960 --> 0:23:19.439
<v Speaker 2>worst teams in basketball. So at what point do we

0:23:19.480 --> 0:23:23.239
<v Speaker 2>start holding them accountable? Houston, Houston, We've got problems on

0:23:23.280 --> 0:23:26.640
<v Speaker 2>this roster. Like I'm not talking about Steven Silas. I'm

0:23:26.640 --> 0:23:28.320
<v Speaker 2>fine with him. I don't even know what to make

0:23:28.480 --> 0:23:30.040
<v Speaker 2>of him yet. I don't know if he's good. I

0:23:30.080 --> 0:23:30.840
<v Speaker 2>don't know if he's bad.

0:23:30.960 --> 0:23:34.560
<v Speaker 1>He's not elite, that's obvious, but he's who knows. Could

0:23:34.600 --> 0:23:37.600
<v Speaker 1>he be Steve Clifford, sure? Could he be Dwayne Casey sure?

0:23:37.800 --> 0:23:40.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. Could he be Tips? Maybe? Could he

0:23:40.280 --> 0:23:43.080
<v Speaker 1>be better than that? Is he nick Nurs? Probably not?

0:23:44.560 --> 0:23:51.320
<v Speaker 2>Back to the point, this team doesn't have pieces that

0:23:51.480 --> 0:23:52.600
<v Speaker 2>really make any damn sense.

0:23:52.800 --> 0:23:54.160
<v Speaker 1>You know, It's like.

0:23:54.720 --> 0:23:59.600
<v Speaker 2>He's tasked with babysitting a team who is basically saying

0:23:59.640 --> 0:24:02.280
<v Speaker 2>public on all the blogs, on all their you know

0:24:02.359 --> 0:24:05.440
<v Speaker 2>stuff that they do that one of the cornerstone players

0:24:05.440 --> 0:24:08.000
<v Speaker 2>that they have. And don't kill me on this because

0:24:08.040 --> 0:24:10.000
<v Speaker 2>there's a lot of people who love him because he's

0:24:10.000 --> 0:24:10.359
<v Speaker 2>a bucket.

0:24:10.359 --> 0:24:11.679
<v Speaker 1>He's a bucket. He's a bucket.

0:24:12.040 --> 0:24:15.480
<v Speaker 2>But the cornerstone on the team is a player that

0:24:15.640 --> 0:24:19.800
<v Speaker 2>was waived by the Cleveland Cavaliers for throwing food at

0:24:19.840 --> 0:24:23.520
<v Speaker 2>his teammate. I know that's not relevant, but he was

0:24:23.560 --> 0:24:25.600
<v Speaker 2>a cast off and you're making him a corner You

0:24:25.640 --> 0:24:26.480
<v Speaker 2>got him for free.

0:24:26.720 --> 0:24:28.560
<v Speaker 1>Okay, you literally.

0:24:28.119 --> 0:24:32.600
<v Speaker 2>Got this piece for free, and now it's the centerpiece of.

0:24:32.520 --> 0:24:33.640
<v Speaker 1>Your room, you know what I mean?

0:24:34.119 --> 0:24:38.119
<v Speaker 2>Maybe not like great. When I look at this roster,

0:24:38.800 --> 0:24:43.320
<v Speaker 2>there's five guys under twenty five guys on this fifteen

0:24:43.400 --> 0:24:47.040
<v Speaker 2>man roster that can't even drink right now. Many haven't

0:24:47.080 --> 0:24:52.280
<v Speaker 2>even played in college. Not saying that's necessary, but like

0:24:52.560 --> 0:24:54.240
<v Speaker 2>I think four haven't played in college.

0:24:54.280 --> 0:24:56.560
<v Speaker 1>They've come over either through the G League or international.

0:24:58.000 --> 0:25:00.440
<v Speaker 1>It's hard to see an elite team here.

0:25:01.240 --> 0:25:04.520
<v Speaker 2>He got guys that played one year in college who

0:25:04.640 --> 0:25:08.240
<v Speaker 2>are very wild now being sent down to the G League.

0:25:08.240 --> 0:25:12.480
<v Speaker 1>Atari Easton, who I love. What is the upside of

0:25:12.520 --> 0:25:14.680
<v Speaker 1>this team? I don't know.

0:25:15.600 --> 0:25:19.480
<v Speaker 2>If I saw this stat about what Jabari Smith is

0:25:19.520 --> 0:25:21.919
<v Speaker 2>averaging right now, and it's awful. It's god awful compared

0:25:22.119 --> 0:25:24.280
<v Speaker 2>to Powlo, which is what they'll always be compared together.

0:25:24.480 --> 0:25:27.280
<v Speaker 2>And I thought to myself, what would Poolo be on

0:25:27.359 --> 0:25:31.320
<v Speaker 2>this team? Would they be passing Polo the ball?

0:25:32.480 --> 0:25:35.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. Jalen Green thinks he's pretty good.

0:25:35.280 --> 0:25:36.879
<v Speaker 2>He is pretty good, but you know what I'm saying,

0:25:37.600 --> 0:25:40.800
<v Speaker 2>Jalen Green wants to be the man you got. Kevin

0:25:40.840 --> 0:25:44.600
<v Speaker 2>Porter Junior wants to be the man you got Josh Christopher.

0:25:44.600 --> 0:25:46.960
<v Speaker 1>He shoots a lot. You got Alpern Shangoon he wants

0:25:47.040 --> 0:25:51.440
<v Speaker 1>the ball? Are they giving the ball to Poolo? They

0:25:51.480 --> 0:25:54.399
<v Speaker 1>have out? Alprin Shangoon. I like him, but he plays

0:25:54.440 --> 0:25:56.280
<v Speaker 1>no defense. He's bad.

0:25:56.400 --> 0:25:59.639
<v Speaker 2>He's really really bad. Does anybody think Jabari Smith is

0:25:59.680 --> 0:26:01.679
<v Speaker 2>better than Pala right now? No?

0:26:02.960 --> 0:26:04.760
<v Speaker 1>But if they switch places, then everybody.

0:26:04.640 --> 0:26:07.879
<v Speaker 2>Like, oh, thank god Orlando didn't take Powell because Powell

0:26:08.000 --> 0:26:09.360
<v Speaker 2>is just languishing in Houston.

0:26:09.600 --> 0:26:12.080
<v Speaker 1>Anyone who was drafted to go to Houston was going

0:26:12.119 --> 0:26:17.240
<v Speaker 1>to be languishing in Houston. Uzman Garuba they took Uzman

0:26:17.320 --> 0:26:18.639
<v Speaker 1>Garuba in the first round.

0:26:19.840 --> 0:26:24.359
<v Speaker 2>Why he's doing absolutely nothing? They could have had Io Desunmu,

0:26:24.400 --> 0:26:28.199
<v Speaker 2>who's ballin'. They could have had Herb Jones ballin'. Like

0:26:28.240 --> 0:26:32.600
<v Speaker 2>they're just passing over good pieces for very irrelevant fringe

0:26:32.640 --> 0:26:36.840
<v Speaker 2>players that are doing absolutely nothing from a production standpoint.

0:26:37.200 --> 0:26:41.159
<v Speaker 1>No Shade, Jayshawn Tate and Dayshawn Nicks.

0:26:43.440 --> 0:26:45.639
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry. I don't even think they're a starter for

0:26:45.680 --> 0:26:48.920
<v Speaker 2>a real contender at this point. When you have veterans

0:26:48.920 --> 0:26:51.840
<v Speaker 2>like Gordon and they're calling those guys out, that's not

0:26:51.920 --> 0:26:54.280
<v Speaker 2>a sign good sign. That's not a good sign. They're

0:26:54.320 --> 0:26:56.240
<v Speaker 2>not playing a team game. They will not pass to

0:26:56.280 --> 0:27:00.920
<v Speaker 2>one another. Watching their offenses like watching a competition as

0:27:00.960 --> 0:27:01.960
<v Speaker 2>to who can get theirs.

0:27:02.080 --> 0:27:05.600
<v Speaker 1>It's like watching duct tape, you know what I mean?

0:27:05.720 --> 0:27:09.720
<v Speaker 1>Just sticks stick stick sticks. Someone's open. Like I said,

0:27:09.800 --> 0:27:14.920
<v Speaker 1>nobody's passing the ball. They're two and twelve. What happens? Though?

0:27:15.200 --> 0:27:18.040
<v Speaker 2>The worst case scenario is this, Hopefully there is some

0:27:18.080 --> 0:27:23.280
<v Speaker 2>sort of conspiracy around the lottery, because if Victor Wamba

0:27:23.359 --> 0:27:27.120
<v Speaker 2>Yama ends up a Houston Rocket, I will lose my shit.

0:27:27.359 --> 0:27:30.399
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what. I don't think he'll fit on

0:27:30.440 --> 0:27:33.840
<v Speaker 2>that team at all. No wonder Christian Wood wanted to

0:27:33.840 --> 0:27:35.919
<v Speaker 2>get out of there. I'm sorry if you're a Houston

0:27:36.000 --> 0:27:40.000
<v Speaker 2>Rockets fan, I really am sorry for you, because it's.

0:27:39.840 --> 0:27:42.440
<v Speaker 1>A fun young team could compete on a night to

0:27:42.520 --> 0:27:43.160
<v Speaker 1>night basis.

0:27:43.240 --> 0:27:47.359
<v Speaker 2>I read a two thousand word think piece article from

0:27:47.440 --> 0:27:52.040
<v Speaker 2>some random local Phoenix newspaper about how dangerous the Houston

0:27:52.119 --> 0:27:53.679
<v Speaker 2>Rockets are seen around the league.

0:27:53.720 --> 0:27:54.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, I.

0:27:54.600 --> 0:27:58.439
<v Speaker 2>Don't buy one word of that fun team might compete

0:27:58.440 --> 0:28:01.160
<v Speaker 2>for a quarter or two, but leak probably the worst

0:28:01.200 --> 0:28:14.199
<v Speaker 2>team in the league.

0:28:16.560 --> 0:28:19.960
<v Speaker 1>Some news from all around the league. Right, let's start

0:28:39.960 --> 0:28:43.840
<v Speaker 2>Edmund Edmund Sumner probably one of.

0:28:43.840 --> 0:28:46.800
<v Speaker 1>The greatest steals of the offseason. Honestly, and if you.

<v Speaker 2>ten games he was actually just really getting better game after.

0:29:16.320 --> 0:29:21.240
<v Speaker 2>Game pops's achilles cost him all of last, year and

0:29:21.280 --> 0:29:23.960
<v Speaker 2>then he gets traded by The pacers because he was

0:29:23.960 --> 0:29:26.720
<v Speaker 2>becoming pretty important to the very like sticky.

0:29:26.760 --> 0:29:28.120
<v Speaker 1>Offense but you, know these things.

0:29:28.120 --> 0:29:30.880

<v Speaker 2>nets decide to take a flyer on him bring him

0:29:41.920 --> 0:29:44.800
<v Speaker 2>back to the team, resigned so they're, like all, right

0:29:44.840 --> 0:29:49.200
<v Speaker 2>what is he doing? Now With kyrie irving out from.

0:29:49.240 --> 0:29:54.840
<v Speaker 2>Suspension he has just been absolutely a glue guy for this.

0:29:54.920 --> 0:30:02.200
<v Speaker 2>Team eleven three and two with shooting forty percent and

0:30:02.480 --> 0:30:05.720
<v Speaker 2>very really, overlooked like you can watch him shoot five

0:30:05.800 --> 0:30:09.080
<v Speaker 2>threes in a, night just some. Nice he's like three for,

0:30:09.200 --> 0:30:11.240
<v Speaker 2>four some, nice two for, four some. Nice you, know

0:30:11.440 --> 0:30:14.760
<v Speaker 2>zero for. Two but, man they need a guy who

0:30:14.840 --> 0:30:16.520
<v Speaker 2>can take care of the. Ball and one of the

0:30:16.560 --> 0:30:19.400
<v Speaker 2>reasons really that The nets are playing well. Defensively And

0:30:19.440 --> 0:30:22.600
<v Speaker 2>i've said this, before they're holding opponents outside of That

0:30:22.680 --> 0:30:25.080
<v Speaker 2>lakers team that put up one sixteen on, them but

0:30:25.080 --> 0:30:28.240
<v Speaker 2>they're holding opponents under one hundred points per. Game And

0:30:28.400 --> 0:30:31.040
<v Speaker 2>Edmund summoner big reason why this is what he said

0:30:31.080 --> 0:30:33.520

0:30:54.280 --> 0:30:55.040

0:31:55.600 --> 0:31:56.760
<v Speaker 1>this season but Good For.

0:31:56.960 --> 0:32:00.719
<v Speaker 2>Edmund Sumner Will kyrie beck, COME back i, don't Know

<v Speaker 2>But edmund sumner making the most out of, his opportunities

0:32:03.400 --> 0:32:05.720
<v Speaker 2>and you got to feel good. ABOUT that i mentioned

0:32:05.760 --> 0:32:10.680
<v Speaker 2>Earlier That joel embiid balled out Against The, utah JAZZ

0:32:13.080 --> 0:32:16.000
<v Speaker 2>and i did mention that it took everything from him

0:32:16.120 --> 0:32:17.080
<v Speaker 2>in order for them to win.

0:32:17.120 --> 0:32:18.680
<v Speaker 1>This GAME but i.

0:32:18.640 --> 0:32:21.160
<v Speaker 2>Wanted to look at the game a little CLOSER because

0:32:21.400 --> 0:32:23.680
<v Speaker 2>i feel like there were two lessons from the game

0:32:24.520 --> 0:32:25.400
<v Speaker 2>that we can take away.

0:32:25.400 --> 0:32:29.280
<v Speaker 1>From. It one embiid is on.

0:32:29.360 --> 0:32:32.040
<v Speaker 2>Another planet he's one of the most UNIQUE players i

0:32:32.040 --> 0:32:34.480
<v Speaker 2>think we've seen in a long. Long. Time embiid in

0:32:34.560 --> 0:32:37.000
<v Speaker 2>this GAME that i did not go TO because i

0:32:37.040 --> 0:32:41.280
<v Speaker 2>wanted to Watch The memphis grizzlies Play, The wizards embiid

0:32:41.520 --> 0:32:44.280
<v Speaker 2>had an, all timer like literally fifty.

0:32:44.400 --> 0:32:49.320
<v Speaker 1>Nine points that's sick. All alone this man put.

0:32:49.240 --> 0:32:55.400
<v Speaker 2>Up almost, sixty points, eleven rebounds, eight assists and.

0:32:55.480 --> 0:32:57.680
<v Speaker 1>SEVEN blocks i didn't make that stat. Line up that's

0:32:57.680 --> 0:32:57.880
<v Speaker 1>a real.

0:32:57.920 --> 0:33:02.320
<v Speaker 2>Stat line ACCORDING to uh one of these reporters that Covers,

0:33:02.400 --> 0:33:08.560
<v Speaker 2>The sixers embiid is the first player to record at least,

0:33:08.640 --> 0:33:13.520
<v Speaker 2>fifty points, ten rebounds, five assists and five blocks in

0:33:13.600 --> 0:33:18.880
<v Speaker 2>a game since when ever ever is the first man

0:33:18.920 --> 0:33:23.440
<v Speaker 2>to ever, do that since they began tracking blocks in nineteen.

0:33:23.520 --> 0:33:29.720
<v Speaker 2>Seventy three, My god embiid unstoppable in the fourth. Quarter

0:33:29.760 --> 0:33:32.320
<v Speaker 2>too he was seven for eight in the eighth in the,

0:33:32.320 --> 0:33:36.640
<v Speaker 2>fourth quarter he basically barely missed that eighth shot turn

0:33:36.720 --> 0:33:39.240
<v Speaker 2>around step, back three just kind.

0:33:39.040 --> 0:33:40.000
<v Speaker 1>Of rattled in an out of.

0:33:40.040 --> 0:33:42.080
<v Speaker 2>The room he could have been perfect for the, fourth

0:33:42.160 --> 0:33:44.720
<v Speaker 2>quarter had five blocks in the.

0:33:44.760 --> 0:33:48.760
<v Speaker 1>Fourth quarter and the best part about.

0:33:48.480 --> 0:33:52.720
<v Speaker 2>It was he Trash Talk laurie markinen in the. Final

0:33:52.760 --> 0:33:55.240
<v Speaker 2>minute he, Was, Like, hey laurie you gotta miss these

0:33:55.240 --> 0:33:57.680
<v Speaker 2>free THROWS because i gotta put my son. To sleep and,

0:33:57.760 --> 0:34:01.480
<v Speaker 2>HE did i don't, want overtime and after the Game and, bid,

0:34:01.520 --> 0:34:04.240
<v Speaker 2>SAYS yeah i lied. To him arthur's in bed by. That,

0:34:04.360 --> 0:34:07.600
<v Speaker 2>Time anyway he's in bed every damn night at seven.

0:34:07.720 --> 0:34:11.040
<v Speaker 1>THIRTY sharp i. LOVE this I love mbids.

0:34:11.080 --> 0:34:15.640
<v Speaker 2>So much sixty, point game still fucking around talking Shit

0:34:16.000 --> 0:34:18.800
<v Speaker 2>to laurie marketing line about putting his son. To sleep

0:34:19.680 --> 0:34:23.319
<v Speaker 2>and the SECOND thing i think we should really look at,

0:34:23.560 --> 0:34:26.120
<v Speaker 2>is Man the sixers.

0:34:25.719 --> 0:34:27.120
<v Speaker 1>Have no margin, for error?

0:34:27.600 --> 0:34:31.920
<v Speaker 2>Do they they almost lost To The utah jazz and

0:34:31.960 --> 0:34:36.280
<v Speaker 2>he put up a historic performance and they almost. Still

0:34:36.320 --> 0:34:40.400
<v Speaker 2>lost the only reason that they won that game Is

0:34:40.400 --> 0:34:43.640
<v Speaker 2>Because laurie marketing miss some free throws and a couple

0:34:43.640 --> 0:34:47.040
<v Speaker 2>of layups were missed By. The jazz otherwise it was

0:34:47.120 --> 0:34:49.480
<v Speaker 2>gonna be night night like you read about.

0:34:49.640 --> 0:34:51.680
<v Speaker 1>For them this is just not a very.

0:34:51.719 --> 0:34:54.440
<v Speaker 2>Good team like, nobody's talking just like nobody's talking About The.

0:34:54.480 --> 0:34:57.280
<v Speaker 2>Euston rockets nobody's talking about how bad.

0:34:57.080 --> 0:34:57.520
<v Speaker 1>Things are For.

0:34:57.560 --> 0:35:00.319
<v Speaker 2>The, Sixers Yeah james harden's out with them with, an

0:35:00.320 --> 0:35:02.600
<v Speaker 2>injuries out for, a month and you think he's coming

0:35:02.640 --> 0:35:02.880
<v Speaker 2>back to.

0:35:02.920 --> 0:35:03.640

0:35:03.640 --> 0:35:07.520
<v Speaker 2>Not good things were, bad, Beforehand right this is not a.

0:35:07.560 --> 0:35:11.800
<v Speaker 2>Great team they've had to rely on multiple massive Games

0:35:11.960 --> 0:35:15.399
<v Speaker 2>From joel Embiid And tyrese maxy for, that matter in.

0:35:15.400 --> 0:35:18.239
<v Speaker 1>Order to be even be in games to beat.

0:35:18.320 --> 0:35:22.080
<v Speaker 2>Good Teams the utah game was a one possession game

0:35:22.840 --> 0:35:27.200
<v Speaker 2>with less than two minutes. To go NO way mba

0:35:27.280 --> 0:35:30.480
<v Speaker 2>should have to go off for sixty points and still

0:35:31.120 --> 0:35:34.080
<v Speaker 2>not be blowing out, a team still be having a.

0:35:35.200 --> 0:35:38.439
<v Speaker 2>Shit Talk lori markaen down a stretch and like force

0:35:38.520 --> 0:35:40.040
<v Speaker 2>him to miss a free throw just so you can

0:35:40.080 --> 0:35:43.239
<v Speaker 2>go home with. A w that to me is an

0:35:43.239 --> 0:35:47.359
<v Speaker 2>Indictment On. Doc rivers that's an indictment on My Man.

0:35:47.440 --> 0:35:50.160
<v Speaker 2>Darryl moury the way this roster, is constructed and with

0:35:50.280 --> 0:35:52.320
<v Speaker 2>hard and returning in the next couple.

0:35:52.160 --> 0:35:55.279
<v Speaker 1>Of weeks integrating him back into the offense probably means

0:35:55.320 --> 0:35:58.760
<v Speaker 1>even more. Growing pains more on that. To come, but boy,

0:35:58.760 --> 0:36:03.280
