On today's show. A little bit later, 24 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:20,959 Speaker 1: we got the updown Report. We're gonna throw some thumbs 25 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 1: on a few NBA topics, including our Rookie of the 26 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: Year winner, but we got the playoff games to break 27 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 1: down here, and we'll start with the Orlando Magic defeeding 28 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 1: the Pistons ninety four eighty eight. They take the three 29 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:37,760 Speaker 1: to one series lead and move one win away from 30 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: becoming the seventh number eight seed in NBA history to 31 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 1: beat a number one seed. One more tasks and the 32 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,279 Speaker 1: Pistons are out despite a sixty win season. 33 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 2: HM, this feels like it's over. It sure does that 34 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 2: the Pistons aren't gonna be able to come back for 35 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 2: three games. In this particular one came down to who 36 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 2: wants to lose less at the end of the game, 37 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 2: and the Magic won that battle. The last five minutes 38 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 2: showed how much Cad has relied on and it's sort 39 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,920 Speaker 2: of war him down in both these games in Orlando, 40 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 2: and you could see it in this one. They scored 41 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 2: one point the last five minutes of this game. Essentially 42 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,640 Speaker 2: it was a garbage bucket, but for Kate not to 43 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 2: be able to do that on some open shots, you 44 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 2: could just see how much the focus is on him. 45 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 2: I think there's more focus on him as the number 46 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 2: one guy than there is in any other playoff series 47 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 2: because their rest of their roster is not coming through whatsoever. 48 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 2: I think when it comes down to it, we're gonna 49 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:35,080 Speaker 2: look back at game one of this series and say 50 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,400 Speaker 2: that's the game they had to win at home. Their 51 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 2: role players are supposed to play better, and no one 52 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 2: supported Kid's thirty nine essentially in that game, and people 53 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:48,359 Speaker 2: will be asking, I mean, looking up and down that roster. 54 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 2: I thought the bench would come through. I thought the 55 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 2: replacements of Dennis Shrewder and Malik Beasley would come through. 56 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 2: Malik Beasley, why'd you have to gamble man? If he 57 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 2: was out there in Game one? I think he hit 58 00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 2: some shots. But in this one, as a game down, 59 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 2: you look at every session where they only scored one 60 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 2: point in those last five minutes, and Kate was just 61 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 2: unable to hit open shots. And either were his friends, 62 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:07,920 Speaker 2: either were his teammates. 63 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, not a lot of shot making. At the end 64 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 1: of this game. I saw that the Pistons and Magic 65 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 1: combined to shoot two for eighteen from the floor in 66 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 1: the final four to fifty of game time. The two 67 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 1: made shots. By the way, Desmond Bine banked in three. 68 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 1: Don't think he meant to do that one from up top. 69 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 1: And then yeah, the meaningless Isaiah Stewart put back right 70 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 1: before the buzz hip the canoe. That was it in 71 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,800 Speaker 1: the final basically five minutes in terms of made shots, 72 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: which is pretty crazy, but yeah, maybe not surprising how 73 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 1: this has gone where it's just Cayden if you can 74 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 1: slow him down, it's not like anyone else contributed to. 75 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 2: And just that. And to win the ugly battle, the 76 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 2: Pistons just had to play a little better defense. I 77 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 2: thought Sar Thompson didn't get out to Jalen Suggs with 78 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 2: six plus minutes left in the corner. Jaln Szuggs hadn't 79 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 2: hit a shot all game, and I saw Thompson just 80 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 2: kind of fell asleep, a little bit of great defender, 81 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 2: fantastic defender. But these games, this fourth quarter where it 82 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 2: was nineteen, you needed every little ugly defensive battle, and 83 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 2: he missed Jalen Suggs that rotation. Jalen Slugs had a 84 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 2: three three of nineteen points just like that. 85 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, these teams watched Cavaliers versus Raptors Game four said 86 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 4: I want that for us. Yeah, it made it just 87 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,919 Speaker 4: as ugly. I saw people asking if Cavs Raptors was 88 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 4: a mud fight, what could this possibly be? This was 89 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 4: a bone fight. I don't know what it all was. It 90 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 4: was disgusting. And that's been the story for the Pistons 91 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 4: this entire series. They get worse when it matters the most. 92 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:34,359 Speaker 4: Their offensive rating and fourth quarters so far ninety point 93 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 4: five for one hundred possessions. That's not very many. No, 94 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 4: minus ten point five on the net rating. Like you're 95 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,839 Speaker 4: saying they didn't make a shot for five minutes, and 96 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,159 Speaker 4: I mean, yeah, Kate is missing shots, but he's the 97 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 4: only one who can get a shot, and b has 98 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 4: five sets of eyes on him because nobody else is 99 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 4: doing anything out there. They're most used lineup in these 100 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 4: fourth quarters is their starters, Cad Duncan, Robinson, Tobias Harris, 101 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:02,160 Speaker 4: a Star, Thompson, Jalen. They need a bench two of 102 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,159 Speaker 4: those guys. Asar needs to sit on the bench. Duran 103 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,720 Speaker 4: probably should be bench for Beef stew At this point, 104 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 4: Stuart's playing a lot better than he is. At least 105 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 4: he can shoot a three pointer. I don't know who 106 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,839 Speaker 4: you bring in for usr Thompson. He is making plays defensively, 107 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 4: but it's like Dannis Jenkins hasn't done anything to deserve 108 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 4: minutes in fourth quarters. Right here, Kevin Hurder can't even 109 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 4: get off the bench. But still when you're playing Duran 110 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 4: and Thompson out there with everybody else, there's literally no 111 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 4: space for kid to do anything. So I don't know 112 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 4: what the solution is. The solution is to make a 113 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 4: move at the trade deadline, Like literally everybody was saying, 114 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 4: you need a second scorer, you need shooting. They got 115 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,159 Speaker 4: neither of them, and their second scorer has turned into 116 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 4: a complete shell of himself, Like Jalen Dirty had his 117 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 4: best game of the series last night, twelve points, eight boards, 118 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 4: but he looks so timid, he looks so tentative, and 119 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 4: he looks like a worse athlete than when Dell Carter Junior, 120 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 4: which I thought was the complete opposite for the entirety 121 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,839 Speaker 4: of their careers. So I don't know what the solution 122 00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 4: for the Pistons is. Probably they have to just hope 123 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 4: that the Magic continue to be inconsistent and hope that, 124 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 4: you know, however many games they've played eighty eight games 125 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 4: this season over the long run, They've had win streaks, 126 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:10,840 Speaker 4: they've had losing streaks, They've had bad times, and right 127 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:12,720 Speaker 4: now that feels like the easiest way for the Pistons 128 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 4: to get a win is the magic playing bad. 129 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, our fronts keeps being injured, that's part of it. 130 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 2: I mean, he left this game, won't play twenty four minutes. 131 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:24,159 Speaker 2: He scored nineteen, super efficient. If he's injured for Game five, 132 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 2: that would help the trait Matt the Pistons going back home. 133 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 2: I mean, that's that's why I go back to Game one. 134 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 2: Your role players supposed to play better every single one. 135 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 2: The biggest shock I think is Jalen Duran specifically. 136 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:38,840 Speaker 1: Oh my god, Yeah, for sure, the guy is going 137 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 1: to be He's likely going to be on an All 138 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 1: NBA team. He scored what nineteen and a half points 139 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 1: per game, obviously did work on the glass all regular season, 140 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 1: shot sixty five percent during the regular season, and he's 141 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 1: been totally neutralized by Orlando's size. Really that they've thrown 142 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:55,280 Speaker 1: at him, and Wendell Carter Junior has done a great 143 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,600 Speaker 1: job on him. They've just dared him to make more 144 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: decisions than I think. He looks comfortable doing, and I 145 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 1: think it's just gotten worse sort of as the series 146 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 1: has gone on, because it's become this story, right, It's like, Okay, 147 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 1: Caid's getting locked up here and all attentions on him. 148 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: You know, where's where? Where are you, Robin? You know 149 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 1: you got to help him out here. But he's averaging 150 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:16,679 Speaker 1: nine point eight points per game and he's shooting forty 151 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 1: seven percent. He has nine assists of twelve turnovers. This 152 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: is Jalen Duran here, So yeah, there's something here. But 153 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,240 Speaker 1: I'm with you TK at this point, especially with your backskin. 154 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 1: So Walt, why not? Maybe maybe it is switch it 155 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 1: up and more beef stew like he didn't play a 156 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:35,120 Speaker 1: whole lot despite being a positive player in last night's game, 157 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 1: and he's at least a little bit more more of 158 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 1: a threat. I mean, to open up the floor a 159 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 1: little bit. Obviously, eight blocks huge, he's out there for 160 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 1: defensive purposes. But I think bicker Staff might have to 161 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 1: try something. 162 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 2: Here, Yeah, because this is bad. 163 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 1: You're not getting anything else now. 164 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 2: He gave him a few minutes in the fourth quarter 165 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 2: because he was playing the way everybody imagines Detroit basketball 166 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 2: to be played hard. I mean he was playing ridiculously hard. 167 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 2: He has been really good off bench those eight blocks. 168 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 2: That being said, he's not gonna score a lot of points, 169 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 2: and so, yeah, the collapse around Caid especially there was 170 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 2: that a sar Thompson buck attempt at a bucket, you know, 171 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 2: with a couple of minutes left after Caid was stopped. 172 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 2: Sar Thompson got the ball and he went directly to 173 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 2: the same side where Caid was. Didn't make any sense. 174 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 2: And there's so many bodies there. Tobias was opening the 175 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 2: other quarter, So I'm not sure why I tried that, 176 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 2: But yeah, none, none of the answers are coming from 177 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 2: the bench. They did know that they needed a score 178 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 2: at the trade deadline, so they tried the J and 179 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 2: IVY trade for Kevin Hurder. He didn't play a ton, 180 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 2: he didn't get into the flow here. That didn't happen. 181 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 1: The classic lose lose trade. Yeah, I'd love to see it, 182 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 1: the opposite of the win win. 183 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 3: Yeah. 184 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 4: I mean, I still think the Pistons probably won that one, Yeah, 185 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 4: for sure. 186 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: I mean, but I could have done maybe anything else 187 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 1: at the deadline helped your chances, said, trade a first 188 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 1: round pick for Michael Porters, right, he would shoot shots, 189 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:00,719 Speaker 1: he would stretch the court, he would be out there 190 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 1: for us R. 191 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,959 Speaker 4: Thompson At this point, anything would have been better than 192 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 4: trading for a guy who doesn't play. 193 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 2: Get a better package together for I would assume. 194 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 4: There's so many there's so many bulls you could name. 195 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 4: It could be Kevin Hurt. 196 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Kid's fourth quarter. You could see his legs 197 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 2: weren't there, or he just hold. 198 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: On cutting him was Garbage's entire game, though, too. I 199 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 1: don't want to let him off the hook too much. 200 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,679 Speaker 1: He had four turnovers in the first leg. He was 201 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 1: throwing the ball at guy's knees on the fast break. 202 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, he had two bad games in Orlando. 203 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, he had seventeen turnovers to fifteen assists over these 204 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 1: last two losses, and a lot of them are avoidable, 205 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 1: as much as the Magic are obviously loading up on 206 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 1: him and all eyes on him. There's two times in 207 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,080 Speaker 1: this game. The one that I just said he threw 208 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:51,679 Speaker 1: it at Green's knees. That was a that's buckets nobody scores. Yeah, 209 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 1: the greens knees. I tell you that should have been 210 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 1: two points. 211 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 2: And then he had the other what do you mean, miss, 212 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 2: miss free throws too, and the other one it was. 213 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 1: A three on two and kid, he like he should 214 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 1: have shot it, I mean in retrospect, and he even 215 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,319 Speaker 1: did the my bad. He tried like maybe he was 216 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:09,439 Speaker 1: trying to think, like let's get Jaellen Duran going here. 217 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:10,960 Speaker 1: He like tried to get it to him. There was 218 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 1: no passing lane. It was like I got picked off. 219 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 1: He's like like those were points that they should have had. 220 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 1: So he's played bad here. 221 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 4: Now. 222 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,559 Speaker 1: The guy had like a collapse long like forty days ago, true, 223 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 1: and got some games under his belt, so whatever, but 224 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 1: those were bad. Those were bad. And I hated this, 225 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 1: like they had to like claw black, claw back in 226 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:32,559 Speaker 1: this game. After all those turnovers start, they're done seventeen. 227 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:34,439 Speaker 2: To five or something. Yeah, the turnovers were weird. Yeah, 228 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 2: watching such a talented player do that. 229 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 4: That's his thing though, Like, yeah, they are totally right 230 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 4: on the broadcast, like when Caid has a turnover, it 231 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 4: looks terrible. They're so lazy and just like what are 232 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,840 Speaker 4: you doing? These are kind of like junior level turnovers 233 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 4: that he has, and it adds up eight of them 234 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 4: last night. He's got twenty four in his last three games. 235 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 4: Like that's a ridiculous number. Detroit had twenty and Orlando's 236 00:10:57,480 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 4: not a team that's going to score easily. They shot 237 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,319 Speaker 4: thirty three scent in the game. 238 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: Oh you're rounding up love it. 239 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:08,040 Speaker 4: And you're giving them opportunities. You're just giving them chances 240 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 4: to score in the fast break and it just doesn't 241 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,840 Speaker 4: add up. So I don't know. But also it's like 242 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 4: I can't get too Madic caid he's the only one 243 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 4: who does anything. It's played thirteen minutes, he had three points. 244 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:22,559 Speaker 4: Kris livert played twenty five minutes and two points. 245 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 2: He blocked a shot. Who cares? He never does that. No, 246 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 2: it just looked like he was coming around to being 247 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 2: at least the half a version of himself that he 248 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:31,200 Speaker 2: hasn't been able to do. 249 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:34,680 Speaker 4: He's it's done. It's over for Carris liver Carrol's pervert. 250 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, No, he's had a very bad seas 251 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 2: where's Ron Holland. Yeah they didn't pull it out or 252 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 2: Paul Reid energy too. Yeah, yeah, they've they tried some stuff. Yeah, 253 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 2: to see I watched Carrislvert. Yeah that block shot he blocked. 254 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 2: Desmond Bany guarded him on the perimeter. And he's throwing 255 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 2: his arms out because he's not really great positionally. He 256 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 2: just does that backed all the way up and he 257 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 2: blocked a shot and thought, okay, this is better. But 258 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 2: then you watch those last five minutes of the game, 259 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 2: I mean it went. Cade missed a three, Karis Lavert 260 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 2: set a moving screen with four to ten left. I 261 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 2: tried to look up how many screens Karris Lavert has set, 262 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 2: because it didn't look like he set screens. Yeah, now 263 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 2: what do I do? And Toby missed twy Saarius missed 264 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,199 Speaker 2: a wide open three. I think that was That's what 265 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 2: sealed it, really, if the guys are missing open shots 266 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 2: like that. Cad then missed a short, wide open floater 267 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:27,839 Speaker 2: with three minutes left. Again, that's why I sort of 268 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 2: say the legs, whether it's the body not being right here. 269 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:33,680 Speaker 2: He's did good the first two games, but then a 270 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 2: turn moving screen, Dannis Jenkins couldn't help out move, missing 271 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,679 Speaker 2: a three, Cad missing a free throw. She probably hit 272 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,440 Speaker 2: free throws. Senasar Thompson again that one where he went 273 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:47,440 Speaker 2: to the wrong side missed in tight, Cade missing a three, 274 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,080 Speaker 2: a Star missing two free throws, and Karris missing the 275 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 2: widest open three. Away left. I mean that was. 276 00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,960 Speaker 1: There was some bricks in that game. Last I know, 277 00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 1: Da Silva finally hit a couple of shots. His first 278 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 1: two shots were all I thought, I saw your backboard 279 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 1: in your driveway with the hole. I thought we were 280 00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,199 Speaker 1: going to get that. Last year they were missing so 281 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 1: bad ye. 282 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 2: Air ball. 283 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:11,960 Speaker 4: And then his next miss was worse, like you're saying, 284 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:13,600 Speaker 4: because it smacked off the glass. 285 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,719 Speaker 2: And the one that Bane hit, I mean that was 286 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 2: a miss too. Yeah, that went off. 287 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 4: At least he at least he puts some prayer hands up. 288 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 4: You will never see that. Most guys are like, nice, yeah, 289 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:30,320 Speaker 4: I meant shot it straight because I meant to do 290 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:32,959 Speaker 4: just a little tall. But no, he was literally like, yeah, 291 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:34,560 Speaker 4: I lucked into that one. 292 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:36,560 Speaker 2: Listen, when you look back at it, if it is 293 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 2: game one that ends up being the one that the 294 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:41,679 Speaker 2: Pistons lost, I think they're going to look back the 295 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 2: offseason and say we should have re signed Dennis Shruder. 296 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 2: I mean, he was so good in that one series 297 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 2: against the Knicks. He was awesome. Last year. He was 298 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 2: the other guy beside k that they could rely on 299 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,840 Speaker 2: till the end of each and every game. Essentially, he 300 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:58,839 Speaker 2: was really good. And they replaced him with carrosel Verd, 301 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 2: who hasn't been himself. And then we thought the two 302 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,320 Speaker 2: way player of Dennis Jenkins watching him in the off 303 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 2: and the regular season, could be that guy. So I 304 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 2: always think, who's that fifth guy going to be for 305 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,679 Speaker 2: the Pistons. It hasn't been anybody. It could have been 306 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 2: those two. Kevin Hurder, you know, didn't have a lot 307 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 2: of games with this team, didn't have a lot of 308 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 2: practice with this team, and didn't come from there. You 309 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 2: just keep on going that maybe it'll be Jonte Green 310 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 2: who hasn't played well. Nobody really came through and they 311 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 2: missed Dennis. 312 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 1: I guess we're making fun of Baines banked in three, 313 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 1: but he actually did have a good offensive game in 314 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: this one, a low scoring game. He had twenty two 315 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 1: point seven of eighteen hit five threes and two straight games, 316 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 1: like you said, hitting a bunch of threes in the 317 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 1: game prior. Yeah, so he's come through. He had his 318 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 1: buddies sitting court side, his old teammates, I thought, and 319 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:50,480 Speaker 1: John Morant and Jaron Jackson Junior just sitting there taking 320 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:52,240 Speaker 1: in the game, and they you know, they went to 321 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,320 Speaker 1: them A couple times on the broadcast, especially after a 322 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: Baine big shot or two, and I saw some classic 323 00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 1: Ja Morant celebrations. 324 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 4: Can't stop doing you couldnot cannot Ain't gonna suspend me 325 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 4: or find me for cheering from the sidelines, are you? 326 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 4: He did it every time Baine made a shot, including 327 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:12,480 Speaker 4: in the banked one, and then Jared Jackson Junior's reaction 328 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:13,480 Speaker 4: every time they cut him. 329 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:19,200 Speaker 1: I know, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, big play in this 330 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 1: game though, and I know we have the clip, and 331 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: hell we might as well go sound up on it. 332 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 1: JD because a great call from the broadcast crew. Jamal 333 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 1: Kane electrifying the crowd with that driving dunk on Jalen 334 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 1: Dura early in the fourth quarter, and he later had 335 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:39,800 Speaker 1: a nice tipping dunk too. But this was you corner 336 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 1: a lot of o's there, but got a body from Grady. 337 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 2: I think there's even more o c in the replay 338 00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 2: to see how high it got up. It was a 339 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 2: little Tom Chambers esque, you know, riding his shoulder a 340 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 2: little bit, was propped up a little bit. That was 341 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 2: a lot on the dunk score. I'm sure. 342 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 5: Oh, one of the highest dunk seen. I did see it. 343 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,600 Speaker 5: The first dunk score I've seen the only one I 344 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 5: want to see. I want to start and end it 345 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:19,920 Speaker 5: with a great score because they've had some dunk score 346 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 5: problems with this one. 347 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 1: Twenty one point five Are you kidding me? 348 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 2: Wow? 349 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 4: Second highest ever test ever? Really ever, what the hell 350 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 4: does this scale go to? 351 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,440 Speaker 1: I thought we would thought we had determined it was one. 352 00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 4: Twenty higher year it was. I don't know. They said, 353 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 4: jamal Kin, you can go higher than that and you'll 354 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 4: catch Justin CHAMPENNI someday. That was a big time though, 355 00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 4: And unfortunately for me, that is going to be the 356 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 4: lasting image I take away of Jalen Dura from this series, 357 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 4: him falling to his butt as if he. 358 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 2: Were one of the three stooges. 359 00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, he should have just like subbed himself right out. Yeah, well, 360 00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 1: I mean he basically did well, he did nothing play 361 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 1: that I want a dunk. And then and then Kate 362 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 1: had another big dunk on a tip in dunk that 363 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:08,919 Speaker 1: put them up eighty seven eighty five with just before 364 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,400 Speaker 1: the real scoring drought there like four fifty five mark, 365 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:13,679 Speaker 1: But that was big too. Nobody put a body on 366 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:14,920 Speaker 1: him and even went up the guyck in sky. 367 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:18,919 Speaker 2: He had his best game of his career. 368 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, probably, And I mean he got in there with 369 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 1: the Wagner injury in the fourth and he got some 370 00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 1: minutes and he brought the energy in a game where 371 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,119 Speaker 1: obviously not a lot of shots were going down. He 372 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 1: attacked and that one was huge. It really like it 373 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 1: did get the crowd like bat wake again, you know, 374 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 1: like the Pistons sort of had come back and all that, 375 00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 1: but man, that place was buzzing. I love a dunk 376 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:42,879 Speaker 1: so good that, like three possessions later, there's still like 377 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 1: the oohing and on in the crowd, maybe as they 378 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:48,120 Speaker 1: see it again on the Jumbo Tron or they see 379 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 1: it on their phones or whatever it is. I just 380 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,439 Speaker 1: love that that murmur that you still hear in the 381 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 1: Kia Center. And good for this guy. This guy was 382 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 1: a two way contract guy. He's done that a couple 383 00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 1: of times for a couple of different franchises, Miami, a 384 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,479 Speaker 1: couple of times New Orleans. I think found a bit 385 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 1: of a role here with the magic. 386 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, and all the notes about his past come out 387 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:10,679 Speaker 2: when he's got a dunk like that. I didn't realize 388 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:12,879 Speaker 2: four years at Marquette, then a fifth year at Oakland 389 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:16,920 Speaker 2: University North of Detroit just to get a. 390 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 1: Insult to injury and Piston's team dunking on them. So yeah, 391 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 1: the question is it obviously goes back to Detroit for 392 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 1: Game five. Now Detroit's been down to the Orlando Magic 393 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 1: three to one in a series before. People were saying 394 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 1: it was to the day yesterday. I saw that on 395 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 1: that they were down three to one at the exact 396 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,680 Speaker 1: same date. I guess could be very possible. This is 397 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:43,239 Speaker 1: the Tracy McGrady series where they blow the three one 398 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 1: lead there and. 399 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 4: He says, you cannot find video of me saying that 400 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:48,880 Speaker 4: I get to go to the second round. Come on, Oh, 401 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 4: he said that video doesn't exist. I was just joking 402 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 4: in an interview. I was like, what, which is it here? 403 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 4: You did say it or there's no video of it. 404 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:57,440 Speaker 4: Maybe it's both. 405 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:00,240 Speaker 2: That wasn't an interview. I thought it was at the 406 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 2: post game after they went up three to one. 407 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:05,200 Speaker 4: I thought, I know, is where you gotta find that video? 408 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,719 Speaker 2: Because he left, Oh this is pre show even man. 409 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, but he left the Toronto Raptors and said 410 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go be a number one guy with the 411 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,360 Speaker 2: Orlando Magic. And so there was a little pain for 412 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 2: us as Raptors fans. Then he did it in front 413 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 2: of everybody. 414 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 4: Everybody, everybody knows that it happened. Yeah, he's like it didn't. 415 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:27,119 Speaker 1: Okay, So Ken Detroit do it again, unfortunate to Magic 416 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 1: fans come back from three to one, or like tass 417 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 1: is saying, Trey, do you believe like maybe they could 418 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:33,600 Speaker 1: win a game or two? Of course, but can they 419 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 1: three games in a row? Just score enough? But somebody 420 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 1: help out Kate enough, Like what do you think? What's 421 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 1: your guts say here? 422 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 4: I would have to imagine that the Pistons take Game five. 423 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 4: It feels dumb saying that out loud, but you know 424 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:49,119 Speaker 4: it'll be their absolute best effort of the series. Season 425 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 4: on the line. We're throwing everything at the wall, as 426 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:56,160 Speaker 4: we saw with like uh, the Suns, as we saw 427 00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:58,880 Speaker 4: with the Nuggets last night. Teams that are facing elimination, 428 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:00,960 Speaker 4: they'll try anything, they'll play more players. So I think 429 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:04,159 Speaker 4: that at least increases the chances that you get a 430 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:07,399 Speaker 4: crazy dice roll game from Iron holland from a Kevin Herder, 431 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:09,920 Speaker 4: maybe Paul Reid has ten and ten or something, right, 432 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,439 Speaker 4: like a weird explosion from a role player. Can happen 433 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 4: at home. But I just don't have a lot of 434 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 4: faith in this Pistons team right now to consistently generate 435 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 4: offense against a team in the Piston or in the 436 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 4: in the Magic that plays so similarly to the way 437 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:26,479 Speaker 4: they do that wants to take away the things that 438 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 4: the Pistons consider strengths, like offensive rebounding, turnovers. Those have 439 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,400 Speaker 4: tilted towards the Magic, and that's something that the Pistons 440 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:33,960 Speaker 4: need to win. I just don't know if they'll be 441 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 4: able to do it three straight times. 442 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, they win game five, Yeah they can do that. 443 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 2: I think they'll say, hey, Orlando Magic got to play 444 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 2: in that play in tournament. They had a flow going. 445 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:47,000 Speaker 2: They went on Friday playoffs on Sunday. US we had 446 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:48,640 Speaker 2: like a week off, so we didn't have a good 447 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 2: flow going into game one, and that's why everybody was 448 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 2: in the single digits in terms of scoring other than 449 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:57,680 Speaker 2: Kid and a little inefficient game from Tobias. So they'll 450 00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,439 Speaker 2: come around. They'll win a game. All those guys. They 451 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 2: can't do Detroit like they did in game one. They 452 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:07,120 Speaker 2: obviously recovered in game two. But okay, yeah they win 453 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 2: a game. 454 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 1: But you don't love their chances to win three and 455 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:11,159 Speaker 1: zero against this team. I don't the Magic are a 456 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 1: good home team in the playoffs here, too true. 457 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:15,640 Speaker 2: I just thought coming to the series, you're gonna get 458 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:18,400 Speaker 2: four really good k games and you'd have enough support 459 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 2: from their teammates. And you got two great ones in 460 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:24,679 Speaker 2: the first two and you only won one. So how 461 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:26,680 Speaker 2: much can you expect if Kate to have three more 462 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:29,640 Speaker 2: awesome games? I highly somebody has them. 463 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 1: Tobias has to hit a corner, three Duncan Robinson has 464 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:35,119 Speaker 1: to do anything. But they're just completely you know, you 465 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:37,200 Speaker 1: just stay attached to him and like, yeah, he can 466 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:40,359 Speaker 1: bomb away, but I haven't been amazed by like looks 467 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 1: he's even getting and having to rush it. Great job defensively, 468 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 1: part of their game plan, no doubt. Yeah, these other 469 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 1: guys Jenkins, sorry, there's been nothing hurder in his minutes. 470 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 2: Nothing. 471 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 1: I mean, Isaiah has been awesome. Storre, it's been great 472 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 1: off the bench. But if he tries. 473 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 2: Something else a week off, it's like that. It's like 474 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 2: that division series in baseball. You can't go in with 475 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 2: a week off. So that's what hurts. Very true in baseball, 476 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:04,920 Speaker 2: way more important than in basketball. These guys should have 477 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:05,600 Speaker 2: won Game one. 478 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, imagine this becomes the series that the Magic win. 479 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:11,879 Speaker 4: They were a fifth seed and what maybe they were 480 00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 4: a seventh seed last year, lost in the playoffs both times, 481 00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 4: and now they come in as an eight seed and 482 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:18,639 Speaker 4: they're going to win, and I mean they could do 483 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 4: it in five games. Yeah, that's just a weird, weird stuff. 484 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 2: I want to just Tracey McGrady must have got that 485 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:29,480 Speaker 2: video wiped from the internet. If it's not there, he 486 00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 2: must have done an incredible job. Had his PR team 487 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:37,920 Speaker 2: has new podcast producers for Cousins the podcast, go out 488 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 2: and say delete all this because if it's not there, 489 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 2: I haven't seen it, but I remember it is. It's 490 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 2: post game three. He's sitting at the desk saying we're done. 491 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 2: We won. They should be playing that if they can 492 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:54,880 Speaker 2: find that copy in the Pistons locker room. 493 00:22:54,920 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 1: Man some other random notes, how about the I guess 494 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:03,440 Speaker 1: the officials we can blame for not catching Desmond Bain's 495 00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:07,159 Speaker 1: bloody elbow for a few possessions that some of the 496 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 1: most blood you've ever seen on a guy while play 497 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,199 Speaker 1: was allowed to continue. Heaven forbid, Like somebody has like 498 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:16,160 Speaker 1: a bloody nose, like, everybody stop, everybody stopped. We gotta 499 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:18,680 Speaker 1: get this patched up fair enough too. But his arm 500 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 1: was like dripping blood and like the game was going 501 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:24,680 Speaker 1: on for a I don't know, possession or too. 502 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:26,359 Speaker 4: It felt like did he go to the free throw 503 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 4: line with blood dripping on his arm or what? There 504 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 4: was definitely free throws and I think could cut to it. 505 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 4: You can see it going from his elbow all the 506 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,119 Speaker 4: way to his wrist. And then like in the middle 507 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,440 Speaker 4: game last night, say yield tosty, Alexander had a tiny 508 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 4: cut yeah on his arm and they fixed it like that. 509 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 4: If you're under one hundred points both teams, we're gonna 510 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:43,440 Speaker 4: let you bleed. 511 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:44,119 Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess so. 512 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,000 Speaker 1: And then this is an extremely random note, but this 513 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 1: is why you come to No Dunks or listening to 514 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 1: No Dunks. Halftime, they showed the broadcast crew Uh Grady, 515 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 1: Austin Rivers and Robbie Eummel, and behind them I couldn't 516 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 1: stop watching this guy here. Now we only have a photo, 517 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 1: but there's a funny cl up and maybe we'll turn 518 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 1: this into something. There's a guy behind the broadcast crew 519 00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:09,400 Speaker 1: at halftime just taking down a bag of cheese. It's 520 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:12,679 Speaker 1: and you can never see his face, so you can 521 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 1: never see him actually eating them. But at one point 522 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 1: he does the old put the bag up to the 523 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 1: mouth and just goes like yeah, dumps him into his 524 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,240 Speaker 1: gullet as he was trying to get his cheese. It's 525 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:26,159 Speaker 1: in at half time. I couldn't tell if he worked 526 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 1: with the broadcast crew orf he was just a fan 527 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:30,680 Speaker 1: standing there because he's got a bag there. It almost 528 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:32,639 Speaker 1: looks like to anyway. 529 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 2: It's a little snack bag though, it's not a monstrous bag. 530 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,359 Speaker 2: It's a little teeny guy. That's what I always do. 531 00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:43,200 Speaker 4: It's a snack sizer for sure. Cheese it's coming a box, 532 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 4: of course. 533 00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:46,480 Speaker 1: Oh yes, yes, yes, yes, it's definitely a bag, no doubt. 534 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:49,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. But like you get chips, it's the same size. 535 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 2: It's small. 536 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:52,440 Speaker 4: You put that in a kid's lunch for sure. 537 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:54,960 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, but I've seen smaller bags of 538 00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:58,720 Speaker 1: those two though, yeah, Delta f Yeah, they give you 539 00:24:58,760 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 1: four cheese its. 540 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, but you gotta dump. I always dump at the 541 00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:04,479 Speaker 2: end of my bags as well, like I dump it in. 542 00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:10,119 Speaker 2: Do you guys are you dumpers? Because because otherwise what 543 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 2: are you gonna do? Stick your hand in there and 544 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 2: grab the little crumbs. You might as well just pour it, 545 00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 2: especially on a plane. 546 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, you gotta dump on a plane. 547 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 2: The best experience dumping on a plane. 548 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:24,000 Speaker 4: Have you heard the hack with cheese its? Apparently if 549 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:27,560 Speaker 4: there is a K before the serial number on a 550 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,800 Speaker 4: box or potentially a bag of cheese, it's they're supposed 551 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 4: to taste better because the Kansas City, Kansi, Kansas manufacturing 552 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:39,439 Speaker 4: plant makes the best cheese its. Wow, yeah, now you know, 553 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 4: I didn't know that is I didn't know that is? 554 00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 2: It? Is it cheesier? Like I taste that little sort 555 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:46,680 Speaker 2: of raunchy cheesy more. 556 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 4: I'm not sure I think that's what it is. I 557 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 4: got served up a nice taste of cheese. It content 558 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 4: on the algorithm at some point this week, and I 559 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:55,920 Speaker 4: was happy to learn that. 560 00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 1: This to me, in our NBA world, this this guy 561 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 1: taking down the bag and cheese. It's behind the broadcast 562 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,439 Speaker 1: booth while the game is at halftime. This is like 563 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:09,200 Speaker 1: the jar of Nautella floating in space on the Artemis. Oh, 564 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:13,080 Speaker 1: this is my version that just like, WHOA was that 565 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 1: a commercial? 566 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 2: Well? 567 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:16,639 Speaker 1: Why do I suddenly want cheese its? You know in 568 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,680 Speaker 1: this case. So maybe maybe maybe I got duped. Maybe 569 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:23,080 Speaker 1: this is all like, yeah. 570 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 4: Maybe when those guys were dressed in all green behind 571 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:28,159 Speaker 4: the hornets bench, it was like the rideshare guys. This 572 00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 4: is the cheese a. 573 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,000 Speaker 2: Guy guy, and he does have a bag there that 574 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 2: he could have put it in. Put the cheese bag 575 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:36,879 Speaker 2: in a bag if he's the the seller or the 576 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:41,680 Speaker 2: promoter of the Jesus. 577 00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:42,640 Speaker 1: Any other notes on Piston's back. 578 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 4: Got a handful of Quickie quick here go goo. Batase 579 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,200 Speaker 4: had two humongous blocks. He had two blocks and both 580 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,120 Speaker 4: of them were like he had his hand on top 581 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,800 Speaker 4: of the ball slamming it down to the point where 582 00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:54,480 Speaker 4: they thought the second one was going to be a goaltend, 583 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 4: but it was not. I think he'd be a great 584 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 4: beach volleyball player. 585 00:26:57,560 --> 00:26:59,360 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, beach Batase. 586 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:04,480 Speaker 4: Paulo Boncaro's shoe came off at one point. He didn't 587 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:06,119 Speaker 4: untie it to put it back on. No, I have 588 00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:07,160 Speaker 4: jammed his foot. 589 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 1: He well, he struggled to jam a background and then 590 00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 1: I thought he then did he not play with the 591 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,919 Speaker 1: laces a little bit to get it back on? And 592 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:17,160 Speaker 1: then yeah, Austin, that was when Austin was going off 593 00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:17,879 Speaker 1: about those shoes. 594 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 4: He would not say. He's like, I don't. I won't 595 00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:21,200 Speaker 4: say anything nice about him because I'm. 596 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 1: In a d discuss. That's right, only only three stripes. 597 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 2: I do think NBA players it's become a habit when 598 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:30,200 Speaker 2: they put it on their shoes. Again, they don't unlace them. 599 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 2: They just jammed a couple times. 600 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 1: Came off weirdly though his did come because it wasn't 601 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,000 Speaker 1: like usually a guy has stepped on like that heel 602 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:42,399 Speaker 1: type thing. But I feel like his came off on 603 00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:45,520 Speaker 1: his own, like planting backwards or something like that. Yeah, 604 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:47,879 Speaker 1: it was a cool Uh. I guess with those like 605 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:49,399 Speaker 1: penny colored, is that what you would call it? 606 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 4: Jordan forty? 607 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 1: There you go, yep. 608 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 4: And my last thing is that, Uh, Austin Rivers said, 609 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 4: you hit it on the head Robbie like fifty times. Yeah, 610 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 4: he get on the head, Robbie absolutely get on the head. Robbie. 611 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:07,200 Speaker 1: Ye. A couple of crazy lines. Actually, he said something 612 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:10,280 Speaker 1: about facials at one point, and he was talking volleyball, 613 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 1: but it came across the word. Although we were we 614 00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:13,639 Speaker 1: going to talk to this guy, we were always talking 615 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:15,120 Speaker 1: dumpers and dicks and all. 616 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:18,200 Speaker 2: That but it's a good as though, it's a good 617 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:19,600 Speaker 2: Austin impression something. 618 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 1: Oh he had a he had a weird moment. Did 619 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,120 Speaker 1: you catch when he was like he did this whole 620 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:25,120 Speaker 1: playoff pe thing. 621 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:26,880 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yes he did. 622 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:30,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I can't do that. Yeah, so the whole of course, 623 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:33,439 Speaker 1: Paul George, he was he calling, he was talking about Paolo, 624 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: but then he's called them Pablo, playoff Pablo, and then 625 00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 1: it got like quiet for a second and they're like 626 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 1: a crab and made it worse. 627 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, the I do like their editor. 628 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 1: I like these three. There's some reason there's they're like, 629 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,120 Speaker 1: I don't know, there's something there's zany for some reason. 630 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:50,560 Speaker 1: They're not like polished, I guess the best way to 631 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 1: put it, but sort of in a good way. 632 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 2: You hit on the head, you hit it on the head. Yeah, 633 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:59,520 Speaker 2: Paolo got away with, you know, pretty poor game. 634 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it was horrible. 635 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, so it was Jalen suns one of thirteen. So 636 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:07,480 Speaker 2: they fly under the radar because they get a w 637 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,959 Speaker 2: a lot of free throws, a lot of throws. Playoff Pablo. 638 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 1: But you said, I mean, you said Cad missed one late, 639 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 1: Like didn't the Pistons miss like seven free throws in 640 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter. 641 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, he missed too, he missed a lot. 642 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 1: They were always splitting them when they were Yeah. 643 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:23,760 Speaker 2: They're splitters. Yeah, do not look confidence. Just one note. 644 00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 2: Maybe I'm conflating Tracy mcgrady's post game press conference with 645 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 2: when they lost. Maybe because when they ended up losing 646 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 2: those three games, he does his press conference and that 647 00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 2: is a famous one. Maybe it's that one that I 648 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 2: constantly see, So I'm conflating it with when they went 649 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 2: up three to one. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe he does 650 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 2: at the end when they end up losing he says, 651 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 2: I tried man, I tried man. That's a great yeah. 652 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:54,360 Speaker 2: So maybe I'm wrong. Maybe maybe it just was a 653 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 2: reporter asking him and we're videos gone. 654 00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:58,560 Speaker 4: We're gonna find that video test. 655 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 1: Maybe he says, it's a mys You're right, it's a myth. 656 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 1: But anyway, Doc Rivers was coaching a team up through 657 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,920 Speaker 1: one and I remember, so that's the one thing that 658 00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 1: the Magic have going for Mosley in there. I can't 659 00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 1: get over the fact. Look, we were wrong. I was 660 00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:16,040 Speaker 1: definitely wrong. I thought this team was dead. They literally 661 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 1: they completely quit on the end of the season, and 662 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 1: it was just like going through the motions, didn't even 663 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,920 Speaker 1: care to get into like through the plane into the playoffs. Yeah, 664 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:25,640 Speaker 1: you know, we were joking about the one two three 665 00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 1: CanCon but it was like the next step. They already 666 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,880 Speaker 1: had their swim trunks on underneath their uniforms. You know, 667 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 1: they were ready, they were checked out, they were gone. 668 00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:40,080 Speaker 1: Mosley was fired, he's been unfired, he's been rehired. It's 669 00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:42,960 Speaker 1: crazy how quickly this has turned. And it's I think 670 00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 1: a big part of it. Yeah, it's been a good 671 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:46,720 Speaker 1: matchup for them getting I guess the Pistons in the 672 00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 1: one eight, absolutely, but the physicality and that they can 673 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 1: match that and obviously taken and neuter Jaalen Duran Yeah, 674 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 1: and nobody else contributing or helping Kate wild stuff, that 675 00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 1: they can wrap this up here. They get three chances. 676 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, I wrong, Wendell Carter. Yeah, he cause 677 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:04,520 Speaker 2: see's the scapula and new. 678 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:08,040 Speaker 1: Let's took him to the vet. 679 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:11,880 Speaker 4: Let's just imagine though, imagine they win that first playoff 680 00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 4: or playing game against the Sixers. Right, They're going against 681 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:17,400 Speaker 4: the Celtics, and the Celtics are bombing threes. 682 00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 1: I know, the magic. 683 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 4: We're like it's itches over for this team. Instead, they 684 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 4: could make the conference finals. Like it's not out of 685 00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:28,240 Speaker 4: the world rebel possibility. They're going against the Raptors or 686 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 4: the Cavaliers, who have both had two good games two 687 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:31,640 Speaker 4: bad games. 688 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 1: I love that going around people are realizing that the 689 00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:38,120 Speaker 1: Raptors or the Pistons could be in the Eastern Conference Final. 690 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:40,720 Speaker 1: You hell throw the Cavs in that mix too, But 691 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:43,080 Speaker 1: like those two teams, one of those two teams could 692 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 1: be the finalists in the Eastern Conference Finals. 693 00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:49,000 Speaker 2: That's crazy exciting. 694 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:54,520 Speaker 1: Okay, let's go to Minnesota. They staved off of the Yeah, 695 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:59,240 Speaker 1: I'm saying it, way to stave boys. Minnesota still leads 696 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:02,080 Speaker 1: the series three to Jokich with the triple double as 697 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 1: the Nuggets avoid elimination one thirteen win against the injured Wolves. 698 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 1: You know Anthony Edwards, you know Dante DiVincenzo. But some 699 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:13,520 Speaker 1: role players for Denver obviously helped out. It was Jokic. 700 00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 1: I thought we'll get into Jokich and Jamal Murray and 701 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:18,600 Speaker 1: all that, but other guys contributing, like Cam Johnson had 702 00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:20,760 Speaker 1: his best game in the series so far. Yes, he 703 00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:22,920 Speaker 1: had been a bit of a ghost before that, but 704 00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 1: he had a good game. Spencer Jones coming through. Yeah, 705 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 1: had a bunch of threes there in that third quarter, 706 00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:33,520 Speaker 1: and uh, even Tigas Jones getting dusted off and given 707 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:37,200 Speaker 1: David Adelman like, at least another guy could dribble and 708 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 1: you'll bring up the ball and play make it take 709 00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:41,200 Speaker 1: a little bit of the pressure off of Jamal and 710 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 1: maybe Yokich with the at least just bring it up. 711 00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:46,240 Speaker 1: So anyway, he got some contributions there and they survive. 712 00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, that third quarter when the threes just started dropping 713 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:54,280 Speaker 2: and Spencer Jones is splashing eleven points for him, he 714 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 2: went down. I thought, is that an ankle injury and 715 00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:01,280 Speaker 2: those andiums that are supposed to support your feet impossible, impossible. 716 00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:02,920 Speaker 2: It was totally fine. He just got one in the 717 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:06,480 Speaker 2: chest area. He was totally fine. Ankles were fine. But yes, 718 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:09,760 Speaker 2: the game first jam Johnson, the game for Spencer Jones 719 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 2: of the series so far, Antias Jones coming through, Jonas 720 00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 2: Valanciunas's most minutes of the he will fight Jaden McDaniels, 721 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:21,239 Speaker 2: no problem, they got into it. But I love it. 722 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 2: I love this Jaden McDaniels feud going on the thing 723 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 2: that he can't do. Jane McDaniels can't go to the 724 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 2: bench two minutes into this game, ninety four left in 725 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 2: the first quarter, he's got to go to the bench 726 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:37,320 Speaker 2: because he pushed off with his arm. Dumbfoul. You're already thin, 727 00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:39,240 Speaker 2: you don't have a starting back word. You just can't 728 00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:42,360 Speaker 2: do that. So here comes TJ. Shannon, Terrence Shannon to 729 00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 2: help out. They're asking a lot either way. The Nuggets 730 00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 2: won a game, nothing to be super excited about. I 731 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:54,360 Speaker 2: don't think. I don't quite yet. I think Minnesota still 732 00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:56,200 Speaker 2: has it together. I do like the moves of going 733 00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 2: to Tyas Jones, another ball handler to help out. I 734 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:01,200 Speaker 2: always thought I should have been the guy that they go 735 00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:03,920 Speaker 2: get at the trade deadline to help out, so they 736 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 2: it's good, But no, I don't have a lot of faith. 737 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:09,000 Speaker 4: Well, I have a little bit of faith because I 738 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 4: thought that third quarter was really indicative and you could 739 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:14,920 Speaker 4: really see the flywheel effect that's kind of created by 740 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 4: the Timberwolves not having their starting back court. They're really 741 00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:20,840 Speaker 4: disorganized on offense. They don't know exactly who they should 742 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:23,480 Speaker 4: be getting the ball to attack, so it either turns 743 00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:25,839 Speaker 4: into a turnover, which they had twenty five of them 744 00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 4: last night, or a long miss which then ignites the 745 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 4: Denver fast break. Denver scored thirty five points off of turnovers. 746 00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:36,399 Speaker 4: They had twenty three points in the fast break. That's 747 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:38,279 Speaker 4: how you get the best games from Cam Johnson just 748 00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:40,439 Speaker 4: running down the court, nobody stepping in front of them, 749 00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 4: getting easy dunk, Spencer Jones getting wide open threes as 750 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:47,360 Speaker 4: the defense collapses and he just trails into a good look. 751 00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:50,400 Speaker 4: That then limits Minnesota's quick attack because they have to 752 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:51,919 Speaker 4: take the ball out of the hoop and then they're 753 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:54,239 Speaker 4: just back to playing disorganized offense, turning the ball over 754 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:57,520 Speaker 4: and getting it ran down the other way. Denver definitely 755 00:34:57,520 --> 00:34:59,839 Speaker 4: played with urgency, like they played the hardest they have 756 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:03,200 Speaker 4: at least since Game one. They played the fastest they have, 757 00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 4: They scored the most easily they had, and we know 758 00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:09,600 Speaker 4: that they're not getting the backcourt back for the Timberwolves, 759 00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:13,160 Speaker 4: so I think it's at least encouraging for the Nuggets. 760 00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:15,279 Speaker 4: You could definitely look at this game and see the 761 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:18,240 Speaker 4: way that the Timberwolves played and say they're just packing 762 00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:20,719 Speaker 4: it in. They want to take care of business at home. Yeah, 763 00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:23,320 Speaker 4: for Game six, there was definitely that sort of vibe. 764 00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 4: I thought with McDaniel's filing so easily early and kind 765 00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:30,879 Speaker 4: of like just not having the mindset that he needs 766 00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:33,640 Speaker 4: to step his game up with two guys going down. 767 00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:35,400 Speaker 4: But I do think it was a little bit worrying 768 00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:38,279 Speaker 4: for the Timberwolves that they look so bad offensively that 769 00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:40,480 Speaker 4: it made Denver scoring pretty easy. 770 00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:43,279 Speaker 2: I do like the sign though the Timberwolves did make 771 00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:45,879 Speaker 2: it an eleven point deficit even though they were down 772 00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:48,320 Speaker 2: twenty seven in the fourth quarter. They could have easily 773 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:51,480 Speaker 2: packed it in and said, we're going back home. A Rod, 774 00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:54,920 Speaker 2: get the plane, man, We're going home to try and 775 00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:57,399 Speaker 2: win this thing. A Rod court side, get involved once 776 00:35:57,440 --> 00:35:59,880 Speaker 2: those calls happening. But I do like the fact that 777 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,160 Speaker 2: I did fight. I do like the fact that even 778 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:05,239 Speaker 2: though they had twenty five turnovers, they reduced him a 779 00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:07,080 Speaker 2: little bit in the sum hash. It was fourteen in 780 00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:11,000 Speaker 2: the first half. So yeah, ideally that's the worry watching 781 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:13,279 Speaker 2: this team. They rely so much on it and then 782 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:16,480 Speaker 2: Dante to let it go beside him. How can they 783 00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:20,279 Speaker 2: fix where they go? And I thought Spenser Jones did 784 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:22,279 Speaker 2: a good job of taking away Julis Randall as much 785 00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:27,080 Speaker 2: as possible. Jayden wasn't that great but I do think 786 00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:30,360 Speaker 2: the way they fought until the end, until that flight 787 00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:33,879 Speaker 2: gets loaded and they're going home, I do think that's 788 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 2: totally fine for them to give up a game. 789 00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:39,160 Speaker 1: And you could see from the start here Denver intent 790 00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:43,360 Speaker 1: on making Yokich get touches and score right away or 791 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:45,920 Speaker 1: get involved right away. And I thought he was just 792 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:50,600 Speaker 1: quicker with all his decision making and his offensive actions. 793 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:52,000 Speaker 1: The ball would go to him and he make his 794 00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:54,240 Speaker 1: move right away. So many times you see Yo kitchen. 795 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 1: That's fine because he's incredible at it, get it survey 796 00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,719 Speaker 1: survey guys are running around all that, but he's like 797 00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:02,000 Speaker 1: as it was touched his hands, especially to start this game, 798 00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:05,000 Speaker 1: he was spinning right away and looking to score. Happened 799 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:08,040 Speaker 1: like three times right away on this game. So Gobert 800 00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:10,960 Speaker 1: struggled in this one with them. You knew y'll Kicch, 801 00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,000 Speaker 1: like we said, was putting up monster numbers all series long, 802 00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:15,520 Speaker 1: but this was like his I thought, best game in 803 00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:17,799 Speaker 1: terms of his touch and his control. Got a few 804 00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:20,799 Speaker 1: how many threes did he get to drop? Just won 805 00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:22,560 Speaker 1: in the end last night? Okay, but oh that was 806 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:23,680 Speaker 1: the one right before the end of the half. 807 00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:24,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, wild one. 808 00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:28,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, but yeah, this is interesting. It feels like, 809 00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:30,319 Speaker 1: I don't know, it's like a fee a small part 810 00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:32,239 Speaker 1: of me. Things like whatever happens in game six will 811 00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:34,480 Speaker 1: determine the series. Obviously the Wolves closed it out at 812 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:36,879 Speaker 1: home or I like them as chances in a game seven. Yes, 813 00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:38,759 Speaker 1: back in their barn. But they have a bit of 814 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:39,719 Speaker 1: a break here, I think too. 815 00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:42,360 Speaker 2: In this maybe it's Thursday. 816 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:45,960 Speaker 1: Thursday would be three days, so I think it's Thursday. 817 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:49,719 Speaker 1: It is okay, so everybody gets to rest up a 818 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:52,239 Speaker 1: little bit. How about Yokics trolling at the end of 819 00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:54,799 Speaker 1: the game to be funny, I guess he sort of 820 00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:58,319 Speaker 1: He handed the ball to Baron Jay and then tried 821 00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:01,360 Speaker 1: to snatch it back right away, and then it was 822 00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:08,239 Speaker 1: called the jrump ball. Yep, very weird. Yep is so confused, 823 00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:10,120 Speaker 1: if you want to do he has no idea what's 824 00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:11,839 Speaker 1: going on? What is going on here? 825 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:12,160 Speaker 2: Yeah? 826 00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 1: What was this guy thinking? But I think he's just 827 00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:16,960 Speaker 1: trolling as simple as that steal. 828 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:18,120 Speaker 2: That's the rivalry. Man. 829 00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:21,319 Speaker 4: He's trying to reset the shot clock, right because there's 830 00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:23,359 Speaker 4: like twenty seconds left or something like that, So he's 831 00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:24,839 Speaker 4: trying to hand it in and take it right back 832 00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:30,200 Speaker 4: and then game over really yea, or just like you know, 833 00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:32,640 Speaker 4: take the turnover. Yeah, the shot clock violation not a 834 00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:33,760 Speaker 4: turnover for you. 835 00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 2: No. 836 00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:36,680 Speaker 1: So a team has come back from a three to 837 00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:39,400 Speaker 1: one deficit to win a series five times since twenty fifteen. 838 00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:43,319 Speaker 1: Denver's done it twice over that span, both times in 839 00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:45,640 Speaker 1: the Bubble, both bubbs down three to one. But they've 840 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:47,640 Speaker 1: done it before, so try and do it again here. 841 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:50,880 Speaker 1: And yeah, obviously it starts with Yoka Chi Murray in 842 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 1: that two man game and then got to get some 843 00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:54,840 Speaker 1: help from these other guys and hit some shots and 844 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:57,239 Speaker 1: it was Spencer Jones. Funny tweet from Luca Evans I 845 00:38:57,239 --> 00:38:59,800 Speaker 1: saw last night when Spencer Jones was going off. Spencer 846 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:01,960 Speaker 1: owns is going to go on LinkedIn tonight and write 847 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:05,360 Speaker 1: what's spacing the floor in Aaron Gordon spot taught me 848 00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:09,720 Speaker 1: about business to business sales as he you know, melds 849 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:12,799 Speaker 1: his two worlds together, the business side and the hoop side. 850 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:15,279 Speaker 1: That made me laugh. Good tweet, Luca. But we'll see 851 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:17,239 Speaker 1: if he's got another Does he have another gam where 852 00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:21,440 Speaker 1: he scores twenty points in him? Eh? Me, I guess 853 00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:23,239 Speaker 1: the guy can shoot. He had a good season. All 854 00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:25,760 Speaker 1: All regularly, he's got. 855 00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:29,439 Speaker 2: The most threes in Stanford history. Uh yeah, good, a 856 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:32,439 Speaker 2: good shooter. And I think why they were so good 857 00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:36,719 Speaker 2: offensively him Cam Johnson was because they pushed it Defensively, 858 00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:39,080 Speaker 2: they had the most bounced in their step in this series. 859 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:42,920 Speaker 2: They're doubling, They're pushing every ball action out there. So 860 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,000 Speaker 2: I just think home court will help out for the 861 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:48,920 Speaker 2: Minnesota Timbles and offensively for them. They splashed seven threes 862 00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:52,600 Speaker 2: in the first quarter. They hit over fifty percent of 863 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 2: their shots, and there's still some fight level. You know. 864 00:39:56,640 --> 00:40:00,000 Speaker 2: They hit more threes than than somehow than the Nugget 865 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,200 Speaker 2: in this game. So I'm not too concerned about them 866 00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:04,319 Speaker 2: going home. We'll see if they still have it. 867 00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:08,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's got to be. They have to keep Randall involved. 868 00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:10,640 Speaker 4: Like he was really good in the first quarter. He 869 00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:12,320 Speaker 4: was pretty good at the end of the third quarter 870 00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:14,120 Speaker 4: into the fourth, but I feel like he disappeared in 871 00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 4: the middle of the game. He needs to have the 872 00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:18,439 Speaker 4: ball almost every single time. Bringing it up, I didn't 873 00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:22,239 Speaker 4: think McDaniels had a very good offensive game. Being elevated 874 00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:24,600 Speaker 4: in the pecking order, like he's maybe the number four 875 00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:28,440 Speaker 4: option on that starting lineup when they're playing fully healthy, 876 00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:30,560 Speaker 4: and he was kind of number two for him last 877 00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:33,120 Speaker 4: night and that wasn't working. I would definitely give Terrence 878 00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:36,640 Speaker 4: Shannon Junior another opportunity. He was really had a lot 879 00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:40,160 Speaker 4: of energy. Uh and the size he brings on the wing, 880 00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:42,600 Speaker 4: the athleticism are things that are going to be problems 881 00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:44,640 Speaker 4: for the Nuggets bench. So I would give him a 882 00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:47,640 Speaker 4: shot as well. But like if Valanchutnus comes on the court, 883 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:49,760 Speaker 4: you gotta playhim off the court immediately. Like he scored 884 00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:52,680 Speaker 4: six straight that was a problem for Minnesota. But get 885 00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:54,640 Speaker 4: him in a pick and roll with Nazrid, make him 886 00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:56,640 Speaker 4: move his feet out there and see if he can 887 00:40:56,680 --> 00:40:59,680 Speaker 4: do anything. So I don't know. Game six should be exciting, though, Yeah, yeah, 888 00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:03,600 Speaker 4: because the Nuggets finally looked like the Nuggets and its 889 00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:05,759 Speaker 4: home court advantage. We can actually take care of business here. 890 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:07,560 Speaker 4: For the timber Wolves, we'll see. 891 00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:08,719 Speaker 1: And I guess I glossed over it. I mean I 892 00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:11,640 Speaker 1: talked about obviously the Wolves missing their backcourt, but there 893 00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:13,480 Speaker 1: was no Aaron Gordon in this game. Yeah, you know, 894 00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:16,080 Speaker 1: he's out there in his leather jacket sitting court side, 895 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:18,680 Speaker 1: and of course no Peyton Watson still in this series too, 896 00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:21,479 Speaker 1: so they are short on there, especially their defensive minded 897 00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:23,800 Speaker 1: guys on the wing. So well, you know, a series 898 00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:25,560 Speaker 1: of attrition here to some extent. 899 00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:30,439 Speaker 2: You said leather jacket. Also, Jared Jackson Junior was also 900 00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:33,520 Speaker 2: wearing a leather jacket. Was it Austin Rivers calling it 901 00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:35,279 Speaker 2: a Michael Jackson leather jest? 902 00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:37,680 Speaker 1: Yes, he did like that reference. Yeah, okay, you know, 903 00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:40,480 Speaker 1: the movie's out. I guess maybe he just saw it. 904 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:42,640 Speaker 4: He did say it was out. He didn't say if 905 00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:44,719 Speaker 4: he saw it. He didn't remember, but he saw commercials. 906 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:45,640 Speaker 2: He's Reseda. 907 00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:49,880 Speaker 1: It is Michael not getting great reviews from critics, but 908 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:52,840 Speaker 1: apparently the fans don't mind it. Hey, do you like 909 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:55,920 Speaker 1: Michael Jackson songs that you might like this movie? And 910 00:41:55,960 --> 00:42:00,520 Speaker 1: it's his isn't his nephew playing? Apparently he's incredible as them? 911 00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:00,879 Speaker 2: Wow? 912 00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:04,760 Speaker 4: Yeah thirty eight percent critics, Rotten Tomatoes, ninety seven percent 913 00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:07,520 Speaker 4: audiences They like Michael Jackson song? Wow? 914 00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:10,279 Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah? What about his family? His family probably gave 915 00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:13,600 Speaker 2: it a ninety nine point nine say. I think that's 916 00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:14,440 Speaker 2: what it comes down to. 917 00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:17,319 Speaker 1: Maybe anything else from that one. 918 00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:23,840 Speaker 2: Uh yeah, I've the hilarious Rudy Gobert going trying to 919 00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:26,200 Speaker 2: go through his legs and hitting his crotch on the 920 00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:28,960 Speaker 2: bounce pass in the first card Man. That's funny, I think. 921 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:31,759 Speaker 2: I think big men have to stop trying to get 922 00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:33,320 Speaker 2: fancy in the playoffs. 923 00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:36,080 Speaker 1: We forgot about Jail and Duran trying he threw behind 924 00:42:36,120 --> 00:42:36,720 Speaker 1: the back pass. 925 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:37,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, he screwed up. 926 00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:38,920 Speaker 1: What the hell are you doing it? 927 00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, they can't, they can't, They can't do it. They 928 00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:45,120 Speaker 2: just shouldn't do it. There should be a rule going 929 00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:48,920 Speaker 2: into the playoffs. I guess. Yeah, but still Rudy Gobert 930 00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:50,360 Speaker 2: tried to do it in Game one, tried to go 931 00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:52,600 Speaker 2: behind his back. Bruce Brown stole it and it was 932 00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:54,399 Speaker 2: a big part of the game in the fourth quarter. 933 00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:57,400 Speaker 2: So yeah, no fancy fun for big men. They just 934 00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:02,920 Speaker 2: should stop. Yeah, No, it hurt during, it hurt Rudy Gobert. 935 00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:06,480 Speaker 2: I don't really get. Although I thought jonaeonal Chunas was 936 00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:08,399 Speaker 2: also out there speaking of big men, was out there 937 00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:13,160 Speaker 2: to potentially fight. He was super calm when he got 938 00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:16,839 Speaker 2: into with Jada McDaniels. J McDaniels also super super calm, 939 00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:21,680 Speaker 2: no fighting, so great sign going forward. I think Jane 940 00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:25,839 Speaker 2: McDaniels will have a better game six because I think and. 941 00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:27,839 Speaker 1: They're just going, guys, let's not turn the ball over 942 00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:30,560 Speaker 1: twenty five times, and we're right in this game. Reduced 943 00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:32,839 Speaker 1: that by ten turnovers, and we have a game here 944 00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:35,520 Speaker 1: and that we feel comfortable we can win. So that'll 945 00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:36,319 Speaker 1: be the number one thing. 946 00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:40,160 Speaker 2: Last side note, did you see Rocky the mascot get 947 00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:42,960 Speaker 2: up onto that second ladder a. 948 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:45,400 Speaker 1: Ladder on a ladder ladder on the ladder, you're right. 949 00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:48,880 Speaker 2: And throw it back like sixty I don't know, Like 950 00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:51,560 Speaker 2: he's sixty feet up is what I'm trying to say, 951 00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:53,640 Speaker 2: and then throws it over his head a reverse shot 952 00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:57,120 Speaker 2: like you know from mid court. It's nice, pretty pretty credible. 953 00:43:57,840 --> 00:43:58,279 Speaker 2: I like that. 954 00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:01,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a crazy ladder set up he's got going on. 955 00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:04,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like the ladder comes out from the middle 956 00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:06,800 Speaker 2: of the base ladder just yeah. And then he walks 957 00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:09,560 Speaker 2: on walks up on a ladder like he's uh that 958 00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:12,080 Speaker 2: guy who does the chairs. 959 00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:18,480 Speaker 4: Amazing slad deck or something like the scariest halftime act 960 00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:20,680 Speaker 4: there is the only one you watch where you're like, 961 00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:23,719 Speaker 4: this guy could die. Yeah, he might lose it. 962 00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:26,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, he never does, so nod. 963 00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:29,480 Speaker 4: Well, yeah, and I hope I'm there. I hope I'm 964 00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:33,640 Speaker 4: there to witness it all right. Also, they did they 965 00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:38,200 Speaker 4: were doing some McDaniels sucks chance Yeah, hard one to cheer, Yeah, 966 00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:42,200 Speaker 4: hard to fit. Mcd angels sucks. Yeah, didn't sound great, 967 00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:44,520 Speaker 4: But you know, I did think it had an effect 968 00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:47,200 Speaker 4: on him. She's an emotional guy. I feel like you 969 00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:48,239 Speaker 4: can maybe get under a skin. 970 00:44:48,719 --> 00:44:50,239 Speaker 1: He said he loved He said he loved it. Of 971 00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:53,760 Speaker 1: course I believe it, which I mean, guy of his level. 972 00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:56,520 Speaker 1: You know that makes sense too for him to get 973 00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:59,360 Speaker 1: that that hate from an opposing crowd. I mean you 974 00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:02,000 Speaker 1: sort of made it in a way. Yeah, exactly, done 975 00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:03,240 Speaker 1: something to get their attention. 976 00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:04,640 Speaker 2: I think he's been pretty calm, Like he was on 977 00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:08,040 Speaker 2: Joe Malmurray's back that one time. It was totally calm. 978 00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:10,759 Speaker 2: But they should do it McDaniel sucks. 979 00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:15,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the way to go. Yeah, come on, Okay, 980 00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:17,040 Speaker 1: well we might get another opportunity if it gets back 981 00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:17,520 Speaker 1: for game set. 982 00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:18,120 Speaker 2: That's true. 983 00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:22,560 Speaker 1: Okay, See got the Brooms out. They swept the Suns 984 00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:25,320 Speaker 1: out of the playoffs there with the Game four victory. 985 00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:29,200 Speaker 1: Good fight again from Phoenix. Man, they're just just a 986 00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:32,200 Speaker 1: little outclassed when it comes to the talent level, and 987 00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:35,200 Speaker 1: Sga was awesome once again. You won't believe how many 988 00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:38,799 Speaker 1: points he scored thirty one points his go to number, 989 00:45:38,840 --> 00:45:42,200 Speaker 1: you had eight assists, chet Holmgren twenty four and twelve. A. J. 990 00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:45,279 Speaker 1: Mitchell stepping into that starting role with no J. Dubb 991 00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:47,200 Speaker 1: twenty two points, six assists. Thought he had a really 992 00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:51,560 Speaker 1: good game. Hartenstein two, eighteen and twelve. So this series went. 993 00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:55,520 Speaker 1: Suns lost by thirty five, and then they lost by thirteen, 994 00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:57,040 Speaker 1: Then they lost by twelve, and then they lost by 995 00:45:57,080 --> 00:46:02,959 Speaker 1: nine last night. Progress nice, but offirtually all losses. Any 996 00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:05,800 Speaker 1: real takeaways from the thunder sweep in the Suns here. 997 00:46:05,840 --> 00:46:07,920 Speaker 4: This one felt like the first regular season game of 998 00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:10,080 Speaker 4: the playoffs. To me, I don't think Phoenix thought they 999 00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:12,560 Speaker 4: had a chance to win this game. They played okay 1000 00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:16,160 Speaker 4: and okay See gave just a fine effort like this. 1001 00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:19,040 Speaker 4: They didn't need a playoff effort to win, and they 1002 00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:20,759 Speaker 4: did it fine. This was one of okay See's highest 1003 00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:23,040 Speaker 4: scoring games of the season. They scored one hundred and 1004 00:46:23,080 --> 00:46:25,520 Speaker 4: thirty one or more fifteen times all year. They allowed 1005 00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:28,120 Speaker 4: one hundred and twenty two or more twelve times this year. 1006 00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:30,920 Speaker 4: This was just a we're going to beat you. We 1007 00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:33,760 Speaker 4: are a better team and you don't have the dogs 1008 00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:37,279 Speaker 4: to keep up with us, especially with the lack of 1009 00:46:37,320 --> 00:46:40,279 Speaker 4: Mark Williams, Like you know, he's been out for the 1010 00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:43,239 Speaker 4: entire series and it's had a major effect. Like Chet dominated, 1011 00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:46,200 Speaker 4: like you're saying, twenty four and twelve, Hartenstein had eighteen 1012 00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:48,240 Speaker 4: and twelve. Those guys were just beating up the glass 1013 00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:51,040 Speaker 4: the entire night, dunking the entire night. I thought it 1014 00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:53,520 Speaker 4: was pretty interesting to see when Shay goes to the bench, 1015 00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:56,560 Speaker 4: who takes over. It was just Aj Mitchell and Chet 1016 00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:59,359 Speaker 4: Holmgren pick and roll every single time, and it worked 1017 00:46:59,400 --> 00:46:59,800 Speaker 4: a lot. 1018 00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:03,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think great sign for Aj Mitchell that coming 1019 00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:05,560 Speaker 2: off that Game three where he filled in for Jalalen 1020 00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:08,960 Speaker 2: Williams shot five point twenty. That's all good to be 1021 00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:12,399 Speaker 2: thrown into this role again and recover and playing way better. 1022 00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:15,080 Speaker 2: And they had won those non shame minutes in Game 1023 00:47:15,120 --> 00:47:18,520 Speaker 2: three by two, but they did way better in this game. 1024 00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:21,799 Speaker 2: So it's just a good, good little thing for a 1025 00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:25,320 Speaker 2: younger guy who hasn't had this prominent role in the 1026 00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:27,160 Speaker 2: playoffs to be able to do this instead of being 1027 00:47:27,160 --> 00:47:29,919 Speaker 2: thrown into it, whether it's round two or round three, 1028 00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:32,920 Speaker 2: to have this these raps where he's. 1029 00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:35,399 Speaker 1: Awesome fun stuff here from our guy Schumann. I don't 1030 00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:37,799 Speaker 1: know if he's here in the chat this morning, but 1031 00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:40,560 Speaker 1: he said there has been at least one first round 1032 00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:44,520 Speaker 1: sweep in each of the last twenty three postseasons, and 1033 00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:47,160 Speaker 1: appropriately it was the defending champ Thunder to keep the 1034 00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:49,719 Speaker 1: streak alive here because they're going to be our only 1035 00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:53,400 Speaker 1: one from this first round to get the sweep. The 1036 00:47:53,400 --> 00:47:55,920 Speaker 1: Thunder scored one hundred and twenty six point nine points 1037 00:47:55,920 --> 00:47:59,640 Speaker 1: per one hundred possessions over the four games. It was 1038 00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:04,760 Speaker 1: a wide margin, their best offensive series of the seven 1039 00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:07,799 Speaker 1: that they've played over the last three years. So they 1040 00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:10,160 Speaker 1: took care of the ball and they gave themselves plenty 1041 00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:12,720 Speaker 1: of second chances. As Schumann noted, but that's pretty crazy 1042 00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:14,239 Speaker 1: like the Thunder we've seen them over the last couple 1043 00:48:14,280 --> 00:48:16,520 Speaker 1: of seasons here in the postseason, obviously going all the 1044 00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:21,520 Speaker 1: way last year. This is their best offensive series against 1045 00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:24,440 Speaker 1: a good defensive team in the Suns. But they're missing 1046 00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:27,920 Speaker 1: some key guys for sure, and look, they put up 1047 00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:30,200 Speaker 1: a fight. No one was picking Phoenix to win this thing. 1048 00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:32,840 Speaker 1: Most people were picking a suite and that's what it 1049 00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:37,239 Speaker 1: was in the end. But besides that Game one blowout, 1050 00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:39,400 Speaker 1: most of the other ones, even that Game four last night, 1051 00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:41,560 Speaker 1: it was fun. When Phoenix took a lead, like in 1052 00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:44,480 Speaker 1: the second quarter. It was like a seven point lead 1053 00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:47,600 Speaker 1: of whoa, Okay, they're being tested a little bit, and 1054 00:48:47,640 --> 00:48:49,560 Speaker 1: guess what, they ate the test because they had the 1055 00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:50,600 Speaker 1: lead back by halftime. 1056 00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:53,040 Speaker 2: M hm, right. I thought they had the fight level 1057 00:48:53,080 --> 00:48:54,920 Speaker 2: to win one game in the series. So I did 1058 00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:57,840 Speaker 2: pick Oksee in five. Thought Boston would be the sweeper 1059 00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:00,520 Speaker 2: in the first round. That didn't happen. Obviously, they like 1060 00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:03,919 Speaker 2: to give away that Game two. I think Okay sees 1061 00:49:03,960 --> 00:49:07,560 Speaker 2: offense yet looked definitely their best playoffs series looked the 1062 00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:09,080 Speaker 2: best in Game four. Oh my god. 1063 00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:12,240 Speaker 1: They shot fifty four percent from the field, fifty from deep, 1064 00:49:12,719 --> 00:49:14,759 Speaker 1: and eighty seven percent of the line where they went 1065 00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:17,640 Speaker 1: twenty six for thirty, So pretty good team numbers. 1066 00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:20,520 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. Shooting the ball, they shot thirty five percent 1067 00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:23,400 Speaker 2: from three through the first three games. And that's the 1068 00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:25,120 Speaker 2: only way you're going to be able to beat Okay. 1069 00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:27,200 Speaker 2: See if you can hold them to that four out 1070 00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:29,480 Speaker 2: of seven games and because they're not an incredible three 1071 00:49:29,520 --> 00:49:34,440 Speaker 2: point shooting team, that's gonna happen maybe maybe four seven times. 1072 00:49:34,640 --> 00:49:38,600 Speaker 2: But is this route to the finals easier than last season? 1073 00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:43,000 Speaker 2: Now that they've eliminated the Phoenix, Suns will have an 1074 00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:47,120 Speaker 2: injured Lakers or Rockets team, and then they get most 1075 00:49:47,160 --> 00:49:49,759 Speaker 2: likely the Spurs in Round three up against last year, 1076 00:49:49,880 --> 00:49:53,040 Speaker 2: they sweeped the Grizzlies, they had a very healthy Nuggets 1077 00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:55,960 Speaker 2: team that they went to seven games with, and then 1078 00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:59,200 Speaker 2: took on the Timberwolves in round three. So you know, 1079 00:49:59,239 --> 00:50:02,959 Speaker 2: those first three series, it feels like there's a little 1080 00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:06,040 Speaker 2: bit more room for margin than last year, I would say, 1081 00:50:06,440 --> 00:50:10,920 Speaker 2: especially because they're coming off a win of the championship. 1082 00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:13,440 Speaker 1: Right they know they've done it, and they hold themselves 1083 00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:13,759 Speaker 1: that way. 1084 00:50:14,280 --> 00:50:16,520 Speaker 2: It feels like they set themselves up nice for the 1085 00:50:16,560 --> 00:50:18,840 Speaker 2: Spurs in Round three, that's obviously the toughest. 1086 00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:19,160 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1087 00:50:19,160 --> 00:50:21,360 Speaker 1: Maybe, And I guess with the Lakers, we did a 1088 00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:24,239 Speaker 1: little news that Austin Reeves might return here for Game five, 1089 00:50:24,360 --> 00:50:26,480 Speaker 1: so they might start to get back to there guys. 1090 00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:30,239 Speaker 1: Obviously different series or a different opponent if Luca and 1091 00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:32,160 Speaker 1: Reeds are in the Lakers line up, If that is 1092 00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:33,440 Speaker 1: the team. I mean, the Rockets are going to try 1093 00:50:33,440 --> 00:50:35,480 Speaker 1: and make history here and come back from three to zero. 1094 00:50:36,040 --> 00:50:37,839 Speaker 1: Anything else still on this one or on the Suns, 1095 00:50:37,880 --> 00:50:39,560 Speaker 1: like I said on their season, TK. 1096 00:50:39,440 --> 00:50:42,040 Speaker 4: Is their Is this the best team that Okay has 1097 00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:44,200 Speaker 4: swept in the first round, They've swept the last three 1098 00:50:44,360 --> 00:50:47,000 Speaker 4: first rounds. It's the Suns, it's the Grizzlies last year, 1099 00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:49,000 Speaker 4: and it's the Pelicans the year prior to that. I 1100 00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:50,200 Speaker 4: think I would say the Suns. 1101 00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:51,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think so too. 1102 00:50:51,600 --> 00:50:54,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, they were a top ten defensive team all season. 1103 00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:57,520 Speaker 4: Well, I'm just thinking the Grizzlies totally fell apart. Yeah, 1104 00:50:57,600 --> 00:50:59,560 Speaker 4: not at the end of last season. They fired their 1105 00:50:59,600 --> 00:51:02,400 Speaker 4: coach before for yeah, right, and then the Pelicans they 1106 00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:03,920 Speaker 4: didn't have Zion I remember that. 1107 00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:04,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1108 00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:07,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, but I remember that Pelican series. They nearly won 1109 00:51:07,640 --> 00:51:10,960 Speaker 1: Game one, the Pelicans did, and everybody was like, going, oh, 1110 00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:13,000 Speaker 1: it's a this is a series. Now, look at the 1111 00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:14,600 Speaker 1: fight they put up and then they still got swept 1112 00:51:14,600 --> 00:51:16,880 Speaker 1: in the end. But it was more Okay, see, you 1113 00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:19,839 Speaker 1: had a garbage game one, Yeah, and obviously you got 1114 00:51:19,840 --> 00:51:23,080 Speaker 1: their footing. Yeah, So I'm with you. I think it 1115 00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:25,359 Speaker 1: is this was an amazing season for the Suns the 1116 00:51:25,400 --> 00:51:28,879 Speaker 1: second most improved defensive team in the league. That's something there. 1117 00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:30,800 Speaker 1: They've got their core is there? 1118 00:51:31,080 --> 00:51:31,400 Speaker 2: Now? 1119 00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:36,280 Speaker 1: You could debate with me and other people like Booker, 1120 00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:39,560 Speaker 1: Jalen Green, and Brooks, like is that gonna work the 1121 00:51:39,680 --> 00:51:43,880 Speaker 1: three of them together? And they have Colin Gillespie as 1122 00:51:43,880 --> 00:51:47,719 Speaker 1: an unrestricted free agent, Mark Williams restricted free agent, So 1123 00:51:47,840 --> 00:51:52,200 Speaker 1: decisions with those guys. But look, they they got swept 1124 00:51:52,200 --> 00:51:54,440 Speaker 1: the last time, and obviously it was a different scenario 1125 00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:56,120 Speaker 1: because they had a bunch of superstar talent. 1126 00:51:56,560 --> 00:52:00,279 Speaker 4: The more encouraging sweep. Yeah, it is Devin Booker's ten 1127 00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:02,839 Speaker 4: straight playoff games. Yeah, and last night was the first 1128 00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:05,520 Speaker 4: night that I noticed he's got a lot of gray hairs. 1129 00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:08,759 Speaker 1: Now, hey's what he's knocking on thirty or is thirty? 1130 00:52:08,840 --> 00:52:09,440 Speaker 2: Yeah? 1131 00:52:10,280 --> 00:52:12,160 Speaker 1: A lot of people are also like he might just 1132 00:52:12,239 --> 00:52:14,239 Speaker 1: have He needs to add a three point shot. He's 1133 00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:17,799 Speaker 1: got to get more of that. And Kenny, the way 1134 00:52:17,840 --> 00:52:19,920 Speaker 1: he shoots, he's such a high jumper on in the 1135 00:52:19,960 --> 00:52:21,799 Speaker 1: mid range. Which you want to do is can you 1136 00:52:21,840 --> 00:52:22,480 Speaker 1: do that from three? 1137 00:52:22,520 --> 00:52:22,920 Speaker 4: I don't know. 1138 00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:27,560 Speaker 2: Yes. As far as the way that the Suns look good, sorry, 1139 00:52:27,560 --> 00:52:30,360 Speaker 2: as far as the way the Suns looked in this series. 1140 00:52:30,400 --> 00:52:32,560 Speaker 2: They didn't resemble the team that they had in the 1141 00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:34,640 Speaker 2: regular season because they weren't the same team. I mean 1142 00:52:34,680 --> 00:52:37,560 Speaker 2: Mark Williams not being there, in Jordan Goodwin going down 1143 00:52:37,600 --> 00:52:40,080 Speaker 2: with an injury. They were a really good defensive team 1144 00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:43,479 Speaker 2: during the regular season, but they didn't have a couple 1145 00:52:43,719 --> 00:52:47,160 Speaker 2: key parts throughout this so that's a big factor in 1146 00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:48,879 Speaker 2: how they look. But coming into this playoffs, I thought, 1147 00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:54,160 Speaker 2: okay sees route would be tougher because you'd have a 1148 00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:57,680 Speaker 2: fully healthy Suns team compared to last year's Grizzlies team, 1149 00:52:57,920 --> 00:52:59,560 Speaker 2: and then in the second round that they set up 1150 00:52:59,560 --> 00:53:03,480 Speaker 2: themselves pretty well for the Lakers or Rockets. But because 1151 00:53:03,600 --> 00:53:08,600 Speaker 2: of the injuries is different. Now, well, we shall see. 1152 00:53:08,719 --> 00:53:12,080 Speaker 2: We shall see what they're doing around two Austiner, he's 1153 00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:16,680 Speaker 2: come back. I've heard Lucas. What's going on with Luca Nothing. 1154 00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:18,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. He's just haven't said anything. 1155 00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:23,759 Speaker 4: Yeah, biting his fingers, getting injections. But it's definitely it 1156 00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:26,840 Speaker 4: feels to me like the Suns could be a pretty 1157 00:53:26,880 --> 00:53:30,680 Speaker 4: regular play in appearance kind of team. I don't know 1158 00:53:30,719 --> 00:53:32,160 Speaker 4: how much higher they can get. And you look at 1159 00:53:32,200 --> 00:53:35,040 Speaker 4: all the teams that finished ahead of them in one 1160 00:53:35,080 --> 00:53:37,879 Speaker 4: through six in the Western Conference, and they're all clearly better, 1161 00:53:37,880 --> 00:53:40,719 Speaker 4: which is why Phoenix was stuck in seven for four 1162 00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:42,839 Speaker 4: straight months. Yeah, and then they played a playoff team 1163 00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:44,799 Speaker 4: and they got ran out of the gym. Yeah, and 1164 00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:46,960 Speaker 4: they don't have a draft pick. They don't have a 1165 00:53:47,040 --> 00:53:50,040 Speaker 4: draft pick. They have a draft pick next year. They 1166 00:53:50,040 --> 00:53:53,800 Speaker 4: get the least favorable draft pick in twenty twenty seven 1167 00:53:54,480 --> 00:53:58,000 Speaker 4: of Utah, Cleveland, and Minnesota. So I mean Cleveland and 1168 00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:01,759 Speaker 4: Minnesota should be pretty good in twenty seven. You're looking 1169 00:54:01,760 --> 00:54:04,560 Speaker 4: at pick in the twenties, and they've traded all their 1170 00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:07,799 Speaker 4: first round picks twenty six, twenty seven, twenty eight, twenty nine, 1171 00:54:07,920 --> 00:54:12,440 Speaker 4: thirty thirty one. They're going to be Pandevin Booker a 1172 00:54:12,600 --> 00:54:15,640 Speaker 4: ridiculous amount of money for a guy that's not going 1173 00:54:15,719 --> 00:54:18,160 Speaker 4: to make an All NBA team. So this was a 1174 00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:21,120 Speaker 4: better season for the Suns, but I think they're looking 1175 00:54:21,120 --> 00:54:22,400 Speaker 4: at a lot more seasons like this. 1176 00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:25,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, they haven't set themselves up for the long term 1177 00:54:25,840 --> 00:54:28,400 Speaker 2: all that well. Although the turnaround this year was a 1178 00:54:28,520 --> 00:54:31,600 Speaker 2: completely one eighty complete one eighty from last year. With 1179 00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:34,319 Speaker 2: Gregory taking over in the front office, I questioned his 1180 00:54:34,400 --> 00:54:37,879 Speaker 2: lack of experience in the NBA. He's an NCAA guy. 1181 00:54:37,960 --> 00:54:42,320 Speaker 2: All good. Jordan not comes into the starting head coaching role. Awesome. 1182 00:54:42,560 --> 00:54:44,520 Speaker 2: They look so good coming out of that locker every 1183 00:54:44,560 --> 00:54:47,080 Speaker 2: single night. They play extremely hard. Forty five and thirty seven. 1184 00:54:47,080 --> 00:54:51,480 Speaker 2: Big accomplishment. But because of what they gave up for everybody, 1185 00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:55,960 Speaker 2: Kevin Durant, Bradley Beal, they have set themselves up poorly 1186 00:54:56,000 --> 00:54:58,680 Speaker 2: for the long term here. Unless you got a count 1187 00:54:58,680 --> 00:55:01,759 Speaker 2: in my watch growth year, that's what you're hoping. It's 1188 00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:04,400 Speaker 2: got to be internal because they've got Booker green Brooks. 1189 00:55:05,160 --> 00:55:07,600 Speaker 2: They're still paying Beal, he's the fourth highest paid player 1190 00:55:07,600 --> 00:55:12,120 Speaker 2: this year. Yeah, Grayson Allen Royce. If they bring back 1191 00:55:12,120 --> 00:55:16,040 Speaker 2: Mark Williams, malwatch their little still paying him. Those guys 1192 00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:18,520 Speaker 2: are all paid through next year. Yeah. So yeah, they 1193 00:55:18,520 --> 00:55:20,239 Speaker 2: don't have really great route at all. 1194 00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:25,280 Speaker 1: So maybe you trade Devin Booker then while you still could. 1195 00:55:26,040 --> 00:55:27,080 Speaker 1: Now he doesn't want to leave. 1196 00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:28,160 Speaker 4: He doesn't want to leave. 1197 00:55:28,480 --> 00:55:30,960 Speaker 1: You don't want him to leave, I get, but he'd 1198 00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:34,640 Speaker 1: be the one that would reset everything. But maybe they're 1199 00:55:34,680 --> 00:55:36,440 Speaker 1: just happy to be back in the conversation of a 1200 00:55:36,480 --> 00:55:39,280 Speaker 1: seventh seat and stuff like that and actually playing competitive basketball. 1201 00:55:39,320 --> 00:55:40,840 Speaker 1: They did a whole reset, and they had to and 1202 00:55:40,880 --> 00:55:42,719 Speaker 1: they did it well. We're being honest, like a lot 1203 00:55:42,760 --> 00:55:45,319 Speaker 1: of people didn't have winning thirty plus games, and they 1204 00:55:45,320 --> 00:55:48,080 Speaker 1: exceeded that and at least, uh, you know, got into. 1205 00:55:47,880 --> 00:55:50,919 Speaker 4: The actual postseason, so thirty one and a half. 1206 00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:53,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and a lot a lot of people went 1207 00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:55,279 Speaker 1: on knowing that, thinking they'd be one of the worst 1208 00:55:55,280 --> 00:55:57,840 Speaker 1: teams in the West.

First one, Cooper Flag 1230 00:57:17,560 --> 00:57:20,520 Speaker 1: was named NBA Rookie of the Year on Monday, narrowly 1231 00:57:21,160 --> 00:57:24,480 Speaker 1: defeating his former Duke teammate Conka Nipple for the honor. 1232 00:57:25,680 --> 00:57:29,960 Speaker 1: Flag edged Canipple by twenty six points in the voting 1233 00:57:30,040 --> 00:57:32,760 Speaker 1: by a panel of one hundred media members. So Flag 1234 00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:36,880 Speaker 1: received fifty six first place votes, with the rest of 1235 00:57:36,920 --> 00:57:40,560 Speaker 1: the first place votes forty four going to con seventy 1236 00:57:40,600 --> 00:57:45,400 Speaker 1: six ers. Guard VJ. Edgecombe placed third. Twenty six point 1237 00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:50,000 Speaker 1: voting gap very close tasks second smallest between the top 1238 00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:52,560 Speaker 1: finishers in a Rookie of the Year race since the 1239 00:57:52,680 --> 00:57:56,960 Speaker 1: current voting format began in two three. The only race 1240 00:57:57,000 --> 00:58:01,600 Speaker 1: that was tighter Scottie Barnes and Evan. Yeah, that one 1241 00:58:02,600 --> 00:58:06,240 Speaker 1: was something like fifteen points, so twenty six points. We 1242 00:58:06,320 --> 00:58:08,200 Speaker 1: knew it was gonna be one of the other It 1243 00:58:08,360 --> 00:58:10,600 Speaker 1: sort of was Konk Nipples rook of the air for 1244 00:58:10,640 --> 00:58:14,360 Speaker 1: a majority of the year. Yeah, Cooper popped off at 1245 00:58:14,360 --> 00:58:16,840 Speaker 1: the end of the season. kN did struggle at the 1246 00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:19,480 Speaker 1: end of the regular season and then he had some 1247 00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:22,160 Speaker 1: rough playing games that you were not supposed to take 1248 00:58:22,600 --> 00:58:25,160 Speaker 1: into consideration, but maybe they did some of the voters. 1249 00:58:25,240 --> 00:58:27,640 Speaker 1: I don't know, But what are your thoughts thumbs up 1250 00:58:27,720 --> 00:58:29,800 Speaker 1: or down on Cooper winning Rookie of the Year over 1251 00:58:29,960 --> 00:58:31,800 Speaker 1: over con Hey. 1252 00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:35,960 Speaker 2: I would have picked conkinemp okay, but Cooper flag and 1253 00:58:36,000 --> 00:58:38,760 Speaker 2: fighting through all the adversity they had to go through. 1254 00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:40,600 Speaker 2: It's a huge thumbs up. When you said it was 1255 00:58:40,640 --> 00:58:43,960 Speaker 2: the second closest voting, I thought it was definitely Malcolm 1256 00:58:44,000 --> 00:58:45,800 Speaker 2: Brogden over Joel Embiid. 1257 00:58:46,280 --> 00:58:48,040 Speaker 1: And Dario Sarich for the second. 1258 00:58:48,240 --> 00:58:51,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, that was so. I just thought it was the 1259 00:58:51,520 --> 00:58:55,560 Speaker 2: voter saying, hey, giving it to Coop in part, I 1260 00:58:55,560 --> 00:58:57,920 Speaker 2: don't want to be Malcolm Brogden over Joel Embid. I 1261 00:58:57,920 --> 00:59:00,480 Speaker 2: don't want to be in a Mecca okafor over Dwight 1262 00:59:00,560 --> 00:59:03,760 Speaker 2: Howard and Ben Gordon who actually finished second awesome year 1263 00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:06,560 Speaker 2: or Tyreek Evans over steph Curry. Tyrek Evans had the 1264 00:59:06,600 --> 00:59:09,280 Speaker 2: better year. Yeah, so why can Cohn, who had the 1265 00:59:09,320 --> 00:59:11,360 Speaker 2: better year be the guy that they voted. 1266 00:59:11,120 --> 00:59:13,840 Speaker 1: Sounds like your thumbs down on Yeah, that's fun difficult. 1267 00:59:13,920 --> 00:59:15,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's who I would have voted for. 1268 00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:17,880 Speaker 4: I think conn had a better year. I think he 1269 00:59:17,920 --> 00:59:18,560 Speaker 4: was on better team. 1270 00:59:18,760 --> 00:59:22,960 Speaker 2: He was on a better team. Job. LaMelo was out 1271 00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:24,880 Speaker 2: for a good chunk to start this season, and he 1272 00:59:24,960 --> 00:59:28,160 Speaker 2: was awesome. I think that's why they turned around so quickly. 1273 00:59:28,840 --> 00:59:32,240 Speaker 2: LaMelo was either out or he just wasn't himself. He 1274 00:59:32,280 --> 00:59:34,320 Speaker 2: wasn't playing to that capability when they stunk. I think 1275 00:59:34,320 --> 00:59:37,600 Speaker 2: he was a big reason why they did that, and 1276 00:59:37,640 --> 00:59:39,680 Speaker 2: they were able to turn it around, unlike what happened 1277 00:59:39,680 --> 00:59:43,200 Speaker 2: in Dallas, where they weren't able to turn it around 1278 00:59:43,440 --> 00:59:47,080 Speaker 2: at all. So yeah, I'm anointing him as a reason 1279 00:59:47,120 --> 00:59:51,120 Speaker 2: why Charlotte was able to come out and be a 1280 00:59:51,160 --> 00:59:54,160 Speaker 2: different team. And maybe that's just me being naive, but 1281 00:59:54,240 --> 01:00:00,480 Speaker 2: I think his consistency eighty one games out of eighty two, Yeah, 1282 01:00:00,720 --> 01:00:03,960 Speaker 2: the way he played from opening the opening game, but 1283 01:00:04,040 --> 01:00:07,400 Speaker 2: a better role because in the opening game and the 1284 01:00:07,440 --> 01:00:09,640 Speaker 2: opening weeks, Cooper was playing point guard when he should 1285 01:00:09,640 --> 01:00:11,880 Speaker 2: have been playing point guard, while Con was in that 1286 01:00:11,920 --> 01:00:15,800 Speaker 2: perfection of a role playing off the ball, so very different. 1287 01:00:16,440 --> 01:00:18,760 Speaker 4: I think they got it right on this one, and 1288 01:00:18,840 --> 01:00:21,320 Speaker 4: I do think there is a little bit of forecasting 1289 01:00:21,320 --> 01:00:23,240 Speaker 4: with this where we're like, oh, Cooper Flag's going to 1290 01:00:23,280 --> 01:00:27,400 Speaker 4: be a superstar. Yeah, give him his Rookie of the Year. 1291 01:00:27,400 --> 01:00:30,880 Speaker 4: But he also was on two Michael Jordan lists. Only Bird, MJ, 1292 01:00:31,040 --> 01:00:35,000 Speaker 4: Luca and now Cooper Flagg averaged twenty six rebounds in forressists. 1293 01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:36,640 Speaker 4: But I was like, wait a second, what about Lebron? 1294 01:00:37,240 --> 01:00:39,160 Speaker 4: Of course he was famous for twenty five and five, 1295 01:00:39,200 --> 01:00:41,200 Speaker 4: which Tyreek Evans did as well. You got to hit 1296 01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:43,480 Speaker 4: the glass, Lebron, That's what I'm always saying. Nobody talks 1297 01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:46,280 Speaker 4: about his rebounding. And then of course MJ and Cooper 1298 01:00:46,320 --> 01:00:50,120 Speaker 4: Flag the only rookies to lead their team in points, rebounds, assists, 1299 01:00:50,160 --> 01:00:54,680 Speaker 4: and steals. Cooper the clear number one guy for the 1300 01:00:54,720 --> 01:00:57,919 Speaker 4: Mavericks as well. He had a bigger responsibility I think 1301 01:00:57,960 --> 01:01:01,000 Speaker 4: than Con did. I think Con. I think, you know, 1302 01:01:01,160 --> 01:01:03,800 Speaker 4: I'm sure there's been people who maybe like a worldwide 1303 01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:05,680 Speaker 4: Bobby does his leader board thing and it changes. 1304 01:01:05,760 --> 01:01:05,880 Speaker 2: Right. 1305 01:01:05,880 --> 01:01:08,440 Speaker 4: It's like we had Cooper flag for the first he 1306 01:01:08,480 --> 01:01:10,280 Speaker 4: probably wasn't. It was probably a VJ Edgecumb at the 1307 01:01:10,320 --> 01:01:12,200 Speaker 4: beginning of the season. Then it was Wipper flag, then 1308 01:01:12,240 --> 01:01:14,520 Speaker 4: it was Conk Nipple when Cooper was out and the 1309 01:01:14,520 --> 01:01:17,040 Speaker 4: Hornets were firing up, and then it was Cooper at 1310 01:01:17,040 --> 01:01:18,600 Speaker 4: the end of the season when he came back and 1311 01:01:18,760 --> 01:01:21,439 Speaker 4: started like having to get back in the race, having 1312 01:01:21,440 --> 01:01:23,760 Speaker 4: to get back at Cohn putting up forty point games, 1313 01:01:23,800 --> 01:01:26,600 Speaker 4: fifty point games. So I think ultimately this is the 1314 01:01:26,680 --> 01:01:28,800 Speaker 4: right choice. But you know, if you did this vote 1315 01:01:28,920 --> 01:01:30,640 Speaker 4: the first week of April, it would have been con 1316 01:01:30,680 --> 01:01:31,520 Speaker 4: for sure. M hm. 1317 01:01:32,000 --> 01:01:35,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. Look, I think if you had flipped the months 1318 01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:37,680 Speaker 1: where kan K Nipple had his worst month of shooting 1319 01:01:37,720 --> 01:01:40,360 Speaker 1: the ball, which was at the end here when we're 1320 01:01:40,360 --> 01:01:43,960 Speaker 1: getting closer to obviously voting on the thing, if that 1321 01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:47,640 Speaker 1: was the first month and not the last month, maybe 1322 01:01:47,680 --> 01:01:49,640 Speaker 1: he's the one with fifty six votes to forty four. 1323 01:01:49,720 --> 01:01:51,560 Speaker 1: But the same thing can be said for Cooper, who 1324 01:01:51,560 --> 01:01:54,280 Speaker 1: had great timing with this. I'm sorry he did. He 1325 01:01:54,320 --> 01:01:56,560 Speaker 1: had monster games at the end of the year. He 1326 01:01:56,640 --> 01:01:59,120 Speaker 1: was scoring fifty he was scoring forty, he was having 1327 01:01:59,200 --> 01:02:00,920 Speaker 1: huge games, and I'm with you, Trey. I said this 1328 01:02:01,000 --> 01:02:03,320 Speaker 1: weeks ago, right, this idea of like I think some 1329 01:02:03,360 --> 01:02:06,040 Speaker 1: of the voters want to do the forecasting where ten 1330 01:02:06,080 --> 01:02:08,880 Speaker 1: years from now they go, ha, we got it right. 1331 01:02:09,280 --> 01:02:12,600 Speaker 1: We went Cooper because guess what, I think Cooper's going 1332 01:02:12,600 --> 01:02:14,600 Speaker 1: to be the better player of the two. When it's 1333 01:02:14,600 --> 01:02:16,480 Speaker 1: all said, no, that doesn't mean Kankinipple is not going 1334 01:02:16,520 --> 01:02:19,200 Speaker 1: to be a multiple time All Star, all time multiple 1335 01:02:19,200 --> 01:02:21,160 Speaker 1: time all NBA player. That's not that that means. It's 1336 01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:23,360 Speaker 1: just Cooper's going to have more accolades and looks like 1337 01:02:23,400 --> 01:02:24,520 Speaker 1: the real deal at nineteen. 1338 01:02:24,800 --> 01:02:27,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, voters don't don't want to get the hate. They 1339 01:02:27,800 --> 01:02:30,520 Speaker 2: don't want to be a Broggen over Embeid or a 1340 01:02:30,560 --> 01:02:33,400 Speaker 2: Tiger Gavans over Curry. They don't want that anymore. It's 1341 01:02:33,560 --> 01:02:34,600 Speaker 2: that's change I think happened. 1342 01:02:34,640 --> 01:02:36,400 Speaker 1: But to finish it, though, like they were like they 1343 01:02:36,400 --> 01:02:39,080 Speaker 1: were almost waiting right because it was like, sorry, it 1344 01:02:39,480 --> 01:02:42,480 Speaker 1: probably Conkinipple is deserving of it. For months of it 1345 01:02:42,760 --> 01:02:46,080 Speaker 1: of the season, and then when especially Cooper came back 1346 01:02:46,120 --> 01:02:48,680 Speaker 1: from the injury and started putting up the monster monster numbers. 1347 01:02:48,720 --> 01:02:52,520 Speaker 1: It's like, ah, thank you, thank God, what we felt 1348 01:02:52,560 --> 01:02:54,560 Speaker 1: in our gut was right. We're not going to look 1349 01:02:54,560 --> 01:02:57,440 Speaker 1: silly now because of these huge, huge numbers. They're both deserving. 1350 01:02:58,040 --> 01:03:00,080 Speaker 1: The number one comment that makes me laugh though, and 1351 01:03:00,120 --> 01:03:03,280 Speaker 1: someone's like, should have been a tie, they should both win. 1352 01:03:03,880 --> 01:03:06,720 Speaker 1: It's like, well, you're not, okay, I know what you're saying. 1353 01:03:06,760 --> 01:03:09,280 Speaker 1: You are saying they both had very deserving seasons to 1354 01:03:09,280 --> 01:03:12,240 Speaker 1: win Rookie of the Year. It's not how the voting works. 1355 01:03:12,280 --> 01:03:15,200 Speaker 1: You can't get to say I would like to split 1356 01:03:15,200 --> 01:03:17,640 Speaker 1: my vote between two guys, and you can't call up 1357 01:03:17,680 --> 01:03:20,080 Speaker 1: the other. You can't collude with the other ninety nine 1358 01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:23,600 Speaker 1: media members that are voting and say, okay, okay, you 1359 01:03:23,920 --> 01:03:26,520 Speaker 1: guys go. You guys go fifty on Cooper. Okay, okay, 1360 01:03:26,760 --> 01:03:28,400 Speaker 1: you guys go fifty on con This is not a 1361 01:03:28,440 --> 01:03:31,520 Speaker 1: survivor vote here, okay. Or you're trying to eliminate somebody 1362 01:03:31,640 --> 01:03:34,240 Speaker 1: and flush an idol. Does DJ have an idol? I 1363 01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:36,920 Speaker 1: don't know, Okay, we know what you're saying. Well, that's 1364 01:03:36,920 --> 01:03:39,440 Speaker 1: not how it works, man. If it happens, it happens, 1365 01:03:39,480 --> 01:03:41,680 Speaker 1: and they're both deserving, but you got to pick one. 1366 01:03:41,760 --> 01:03:43,240 Speaker 1: When you're doing the actual ballot. 1367 01:03:44,160 --> 01:03:46,600 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah. And as we. 1368 01:03:46,640 --> 01:03:48,840 Speaker 1: Said, you when you filled out your ballot, you would 1369 01:03:48,840 --> 01:03:50,439 Speaker 1: await con when you fill out your ballet, you would 1370 01:03:50,480 --> 01:03:50,960 Speaker 1: wait Cooper. 1371 01:03:51,000 --> 01:03:53,040 Speaker 2: And that's fine, yeah yeah, And part of it is 1372 01:03:53,280 --> 01:03:56,120 Speaker 2: probably tied to what you just said about voters who 1373 01:03:56,160 --> 01:03:59,280 Speaker 2: want to be right. And I made the prediction and 1374 01:03:59,360 --> 01:04:01,919 Speaker 2: New Year's when we made our bold productions, I said, 1375 01:04:01,960 --> 01:04:05,560 Speaker 2: Conkor Nipple's winning this thing, and he had a really 1376 01:04:05,560 --> 01:04:09,680 Speaker 2: good January, and it was we're Coaston and Cooper what 1377 01:04:09,760 --> 01:04:13,680 Speaker 2: had that struggle four games until he dropped forty nine, 1378 01:04:14,080 --> 01:04:16,560 Speaker 2: was injured, and then had even better games to finish 1379 01:04:16,560 --> 01:04:19,680 Speaker 2: the season. So I understand, I understand wanted to vote 1380 01:04:19,720 --> 01:04:22,480 Speaker 2: for Coop because in the long term Cooper Flag will 1381 01:04:22,520 --> 01:04:25,080 Speaker 2: be the guy from this rookie class that is their 1382 01:04:25,120 --> 01:04:26,080 Speaker 2: best player. 1383 01:04:26,280 --> 01:04:29,080 Speaker 1: Which appears to be a damn good rookie class because 1384 01:04:29,080 --> 01:04:33,320 Speaker 1: of VJ. Edgecombe and Dylan Harper are like, you know 1385 01:04:33,760 --> 01:04:36,800 Speaker 1: whatever two through four, and then of course Cedric Coward 1386 01:04:36,800 --> 01:04:40,520 Speaker 1: even like it looks good like obviously some superstar talent here. 1387 01:04:40,800 --> 01:04:44,160 Speaker 1: As we move forward, all right, next one here, Miami 1388 01:04:44,160 --> 01:04:46,480 Speaker 1: Heat president pat Riley made it clear that he is 1389 01:04:46,560 --> 01:04:50,600 Speaker 1: not retiring or resigning and that he remains as committed 1390 01:04:50,640 --> 01:04:53,960 Speaker 1: as ever to leading the franchise to its fourth NBA championship. 1391 01:04:54,160 --> 01:04:58,280 Speaker 1: Riley vowed that he will never change his approach, saying 1392 01:04:58,320 --> 01:05:01,160 Speaker 1: his only focus is on winning and improving the Heat 1393 01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:04,880 Speaker 1: and that he will never tank for assets. He had 1394 01:05:04,920 --> 01:05:07,640 Speaker 1: leut to say about Bam Too, basically saying, by the way, 1395 01:05:07,640 --> 01:05:10,680 Speaker 1: we're not training Bam out of BYO, so don't ask 1396 01:05:10,680 --> 01:05:12,360 Speaker 1: me unless it's for eight draft picks and one. 1397 01:05:12,960 --> 01:05:13,160 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1398 01:05:13,200 --> 01:05:13,920 Speaker 4: I would do that too. 1399 01:05:14,000 --> 01:05:15,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's smart, that's smart. 1400 01:05:15,960 --> 01:05:16,200 Speaker 2: Open. 1401 01:05:16,440 --> 01:05:19,040 Speaker 1: But up or down here? H t k on on 1402 01:05:19,200 --> 01:05:24,120 Speaker 1: Pat Riley saying, you know what, I'm not leaving. 1403 01:05:25,440 --> 01:05:26,200 Speaker 4: I do like it. 1404 01:05:26,240 --> 01:05:27,800 Speaker 1: I'm not leaving. I do like it. 1405 01:05:28,120 --> 01:05:30,160 Speaker 4: Eighty show goes on. 1406 01:05:31,240 --> 01:05:36,360 Speaker 1: This is my home. Sorry yeah, well he slicked back 1407 01:05:36,400 --> 01:05:39,640 Speaker 1: to it's sort of good, right Yeah yeah yeah, yeah, 1408 01:05:39,720 --> 01:05:43,320 Speaker 1: I mean I need a fucking wrecking ball to get 1409 01:05:43,320 --> 01:05:45,960 Speaker 1: me out of here. Riley doing that would have been amazing. 1410 01:05:46,280 --> 01:05:50,520 Speaker 4: I think he can still yell no, but he could 1411 01:05:50,520 --> 01:05:53,560 Speaker 4: do this, Yeah, I guess something. 1412 01:05:54,880 --> 01:05:57,040 Speaker 1: Sorry, up and down on Pat still being love. 1413 01:05:57,120 --> 01:06:02,400 Speaker 2: Probably he would have shared that Wolf of Wall Streets. 1414 01:06:02,480 --> 01:06:04,760 Speaker 4: Did they check his Instagram? Maybe? 1415 01:06:05,840 --> 01:06:06,160 Speaker 2: Yeah? 1416 01:06:06,160 --> 01:06:10,480 Speaker 4: But uh, I mean interesting. I think he says, I'm 1417 01:06:10,480 --> 01:06:12,680 Speaker 4: not changing my approach. That basically just means I'm not 1418 01:06:12,680 --> 01:06:14,760 Speaker 4: gonna tank. That makes sense to be the dude's eighty 1419 01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:17,400 Speaker 4: one years old. He doesn't want to have his last however, 1420 01:06:17,480 --> 01:06:21,680 Speaker 4: many years as a losing team he's He's even like, yeah, 1421 01:06:21,720 --> 01:06:24,520 Speaker 4: it's true, I'm aging up. I'm eighty one, that's aging up. 1422 01:06:24,840 --> 01:06:26,880 Speaker 4: I have to agree with him here, but maybe you should. 1423 01:06:26,920 --> 01:06:29,400 Speaker 4: They should change their approach a little bit, you know, 1424 01:06:29,520 --> 01:06:31,640 Speaker 4: like get some better players, try not to be in 1425 01:06:31,680 --> 01:06:33,640 Speaker 4: the play in tournament once again. And I think the 1426 01:06:33,680 --> 01:06:35,640 Speaker 4: reason all the Bam stuff comes up is because, like 1427 01:06:36,160 --> 01:06:38,840 Speaker 4: BAM's a great player, second greatest scorer in the history 1428 01:06:38,840 --> 01:06:42,479 Speaker 4: of the NBA. But if you're gonna make a real 1429 01:06:42,600 --> 01:06:47,400 Speaker 4: impact move acquiring a Jana Santa to compo Bam basically 1430 01:06:47,400 --> 01:06:51,680 Speaker 4: has to be in the trade from an alluring asset standpoint, 1431 01:06:51,720 --> 01:06:54,560 Speaker 4: from a contract standpoint, like you would have to trade Bam. 1432 01:06:54,640 --> 01:06:57,320 Speaker 4: But as we know, he's like the figurehead of Heat 1433 01:06:57,320 --> 01:07:00,600 Speaker 4: culture for the team right now, So makes sense to 1434 01:07:00,640 --> 01:07:03,120 Speaker 4: me that And I think good to hear if you're 1435 01:07:03,160 --> 01:07:05,040 Speaker 4: a Heat fan that, like, you don't want your team 1436 01:07:05,080 --> 01:07:07,000 Speaker 4: to tank, it sucks It sucks when your team tanks, 1437 01:07:07,080 --> 01:07:11,000 Speaker 4: and you don't want their franchise cornerstones to be traded either, 1438 01:07:11,160 --> 01:07:13,000 Speaker 4: So you're saying, don't worry about it, our guys are 1439 01:07:13,000 --> 01:07:14,920 Speaker 4: coming back. We got a lot of other things to 1440 01:07:14,960 --> 01:07:16,640 Speaker 4: figure out, and he does got a lot of. 1441 01:07:16,560 --> 01:07:18,240 Speaker 1: It, and they do. They have a lottery pick for 1442 01:07:18,280 --> 01:07:21,200 Speaker 1: the first time in a long time twenty eighteen. They 1443 01:07:21,240 --> 01:07:24,480 Speaker 1: have Norman Powell will be a free agent. Decisions with him. 1444 01:07:24,520 --> 01:07:28,640 Speaker 1: You've got Tyler Hero, Jaime Hawkes junior eligible for extensions, 1445 01:07:28,680 --> 01:07:31,560 Speaker 1: and then Andrew Wiggins has a player option for thirty 1446 01:07:31,560 --> 01:07:33,920 Speaker 1: point two millions. So that's obviously up to Andrew Wiggins 1447 01:07:33,960 --> 01:07:36,120 Speaker 1: a little bit here, but there are decisions and they 1448 01:07:36,120 --> 01:07:37,880 Speaker 1: need to get better. And he did the whole thing like, 1449 01:07:38,000 --> 01:07:39,840 Speaker 1: I could sit here and give you a bunch of excuses, 1450 01:07:39,880 --> 01:07:42,400 Speaker 1: but we don't do that, and we weren't good enough 1451 01:07:42,600 --> 01:07:46,040 Speaker 1: and we're not happy about it. And he said something like, 1452 01:07:46,080 --> 01:07:48,160 Speaker 1: this is the first time over this last little stretch 1453 01:07:48,160 --> 01:07:51,160 Speaker 1: where we have the opportunity to try and improve our 1454 01:07:51,240 --> 01:07:54,360 Speaker 1: roster and make some moves with the flexibility and all that. 1455 01:07:54,480 --> 01:07:56,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, So I think he left that open. I think 1456 01:07:56,160 --> 01:07:59,160 Speaker 2: that's what is going to be happening around bam Adebaye. 1457 01:07:59,520 --> 01:08:01,680 Speaker 2: I think the idea is he doesn't want to trade Bam, 1458 01:08:01,880 --> 01:08:04,320 Speaker 2: and I think he's true to that, although I do 1459 01:08:04,480 --> 01:08:08,080 Speaker 2: like him being totally open and saying, okay, I give 1460 01:08:08,160 --> 01:08:12,320 Speaker 2: him up for but that's about it. 1461 01:08:12,880 --> 01:08:16,160 Speaker 4: I think it's a tampering fine that would be hilarious. 1462 01:08:18,360 --> 01:08:21,240 Speaker 4: He can't name other teams players, But. 1463 01:08:21,280 --> 01:08:25,400 Speaker 2: I think he does have room to retool around Bam. 1464 01:08:25,439 --> 01:08:28,519 Speaker 2: As you said, you went through all the potential moves. 1465 01:08:29,600 --> 01:08:34,320 Speaker 2: He was clear. I don't want to use the word clear, 1466 01:08:34,360 --> 01:08:37,360 Speaker 2: but he did say Hero needs to be healthy next year. 1467 01:08:37,400 --> 01:08:40,240 Speaker 2: He wasn't healthy this year. He underwent a procedure. He 1468 01:08:40,320 --> 01:08:43,960 Speaker 2: just went on a preemptive procedure that he'll be back 1469 01:08:44,000 --> 01:08:48,439 Speaker 2: for for next season. So I think there's lots of room. Finally, 1470 01:08:48,520 --> 01:08:51,120 Speaker 2: that Weggans deal is coming up sort of. I guess 1471 01:08:51,120 --> 01:08:53,759 Speaker 2: it's a player option. It's been a long time coming. 1472 01:08:53,800 --> 01:08:59,760 Speaker 2: But yeah, I don't know. Yeah, I guess a new 1473 01:08:59,800 --> 01:09:02,200 Speaker 2: deal unless I think that's more likely. Unless this is yeah, 1474 01:09:02,200 --> 01:09:06,360 Speaker 2: you're getting you on three sixty. Okay, now I'm negotiating, 1475 01:09:06,360 --> 01:09:08,599 Speaker 2: but yeah, if he's getting longer term deal, then he'll 1476 01:09:08,640 --> 01:09:12,200 Speaker 2: stick around. Dry Rose ears off the books, although going 1477 01:09:12,240 --> 01:09:17,280 Speaker 2: through additional issues off the floors and some new stuff 1478 01:09:17,280 --> 01:09:19,920 Speaker 2: happening around. But pat Riley ain't changing. He's just not. 1479 01:09:20,120 --> 01:09:23,360 Speaker 2: He's remember a few years ago and he said to 1480 01:09:23,479 --> 01:09:25,720 Speaker 2: a reporter, I'm seventy seven years old and I can 1481 01:09:25,760 --> 01:09:27,880 Speaker 2: do more push ups than you. Guy's not going to 1482 01:09:27,920 --> 01:09:30,160 Speaker 2: give up. He's never going to give up. And that's 1483 01:09:30,200 --> 01:09:32,639 Speaker 2: what you like about pat Riley. But again, there's some 1484 01:09:32,680 --> 01:09:34,000 Speaker 2: retooling options here. 1485 01:09:34,960 --> 01:09:37,960 Speaker 1: Final one, the league and its general managers will discuss 1486 01:09:38,080 --> 01:09:43,759 Speaker 1: methods to curb tanking today on zoom. That's what they're saying. 1487 01:09:43,880 --> 01:09:46,960 Speaker 4: I couldn't believe that they don't have their own meeting service. 1488 01:09:47,680 --> 01:09:50,240 Speaker 1: No, nothing wrong with soon. They all pay for it, 1489 01:09:50,840 --> 01:09:51,840 Speaker 1: got the premium version. 1490 01:09:51,880 --> 01:09:53,880 Speaker 4: I'm sure even the Blazers. 1491 01:09:55,040 --> 01:09:58,600 Speaker 1: He's like, can we wrap this up on my zoom 1492 01:09:58,920 --> 01:10:00,880 Speaker 1: to log off here? I didn't pay for the service. 1493 01:10:04,000 --> 01:10:06,840 Speaker 1: While the NBA has presented a few proposals aimed at 1494 01:10:06,920 --> 01:10:10,200 Speaker 1: changing the lottery, the heavy front runner reportedly involves a 1495 01:10:10,280 --> 01:10:14,519 Speaker 1: draft lottery that will feature eighteen teams and altered odds. 1496 01:10:14,560 --> 01:10:17,479 Speaker 1: This is according to Sam Amic at The Athletic So 1497 01:10:17,600 --> 01:10:21,320 Speaker 1: in that option, just to refresh your memory, eighteen teams 1498 01:10:21,360 --> 01:10:23,600 Speaker 1: would be part of the draft lottery rather than the 1499 01:10:23,600 --> 01:10:26,040 Speaker 1: current fourteen, and the bottom ten teams would all have 1500 01:10:26,080 --> 01:10:29,040 Speaker 1: an eight percent chance of landing the number one pick, 1501 01:10:29,040 --> 01:10:32,000 Speaker 1: So you're flattening the odds for the bottom ten teams. 1502 01:10:32,120 --> 01:10:35,759 Speaker 1: The remaining odds twenty percent in total, would be divided 1503 01:10:35,800 --> 01:10:38,760 Speaker 1: among the remaining eight teams. That's how you get to 1504 01:10:38,800 --> 01:10:40,639 Speaker 1: the eighteen teams. But we're talking about teams that are 1505 01:10:40,640 --> 01:10:44,160 Speaker 1: like in the plan and stuff like that. Are you 1506 01:10:44,280 --> 01:10:46,360 Speaker 1: up or down on this being the front runner here 1507 01:10:47,080 --> 01:10:50,040 Speaker 1: for this draft reform? I know we've talked about this before. 1508 01:10:50,120 --> 01:10:53,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm done. I'd rather have that idea of the 1509 01:10:53,280 --> 01:10:57,559 Speaker 2: two year average of your record in determining where you 1510 01:10:57,600 --> 01:11:00,360 Speaker 2: are in the draft lottery. Because of two years, I 1511 01:11:00,479 --> 01:11:05,240 Speaker 2: understand why every owner is up because you can still tank. 1512 01:11:05,520 --> 01:11:07,519 Speaker 2: You can still tank in this format and still be 1513 01:11:07,560 --> 01:11:09,479 Speaker 2: bad for a year. Tom Dundon, I'm sure he's excited. 1514 01:11:09,560 --> 01:11:10,320 Speaker 2: I'm sure everybody's. 1515 01:11:10,320 --> 01:11:14,000 Speaker 1: Although, isn't the point of this too fixed tanking? Why 1516 01:11:14,800 --> 01:11:15,400 Speaker 1: I'm with you? 1517 01:11:15,479 --> 01:11:18,400 Speaker 2: I know, I know it's not. It's not. It's not 1518 01:11:18,400 --> 01:11:21,439 Speaker 2: going to change anything. Why wouldn't it a team in 1519 01:11:21,479 --> 01:11:25,080 Speaker 2: front off and say you know, eight percent chance. That's good. 1520 01:11:25,200 --> 01:11:27,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, here, here, let's just lay this out. Moving to 1521 01:11:27,400 --> 01:11:30,639 Speaker 1: an eighteen team lottery wouldn't completely solve the tanking issue, 1522 01:11:30,640 --> 01:11:33,240 Speaker 1: which we've said is very tough to completely solve, but 1523 01:11:33,640 --> 01:11:37,640 Speaker 1: the idea is to disincentivize the league's worst teams, the 1524 01:11:37,640 --> 01:11:41,599 Speaker 1: bottom of the bottom teams from losing on purpose by 1525 01:11:41,720 --> 01:11:43,920 Speaker 1: keeping them in contention for top oots, because it's going 1526 01:11:44,000 --> 01:11:46,679 Speaker 1: to like change nothing, right, you're going to have that 1527 01:11:47,560 --> 01:11:50,920 Speaker 1: percentage eight percent. The counter argument, though, and sort of 1528 01:11:50,960 --> 01:11:53,719 Speaker 1: what you're alluding here to to us, is like, doesn't 1529 01:11:53,760 --> 01:11:57,840 Speaker 1: this give more teams a shot at the number one pick? 1530 01:11:58,600 --> 01:12:02,920 Speaker 1: And maybe your move being like the tanking from the 1531 01:12:02,920 --> 01:12:05,200 Speaker 1: bottom of the league potentially to the middle of the 1532 01:12:05,280 --> 01:12:08,240 Speaker 1: league now, because teams could be making a calculat decision 1533 01:12:08,280 --> 01:12:10,439 Speaker 1: on like well, we're just gonna get waxed in the 1534 01:12:10,479 --> 01:12:12,840 Speaker 1: play in here, I mean, why don't we you know, 1535 01:12:13,040 --> 01:12:15,200 Speaker 1: or getting into the playoffs will get crushed. So let's 1536 01:12:15,240 --> 01:12:17,880 Speaker 1: just hang back here and give ourselves a whatever two point. 1537 01:12:18,360 --> 01:12:20,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's why. The other the other possible, the other 1538 01:12:20,520 --> 01:12:24,400 Speaker 2: option of a team getting their record from the past 1539 01:12:24,439 --> 01:12:29,479 Speaker 2: two years determining as the determinant of where you are in. 1540 01:12:29,479 --> 01:12:32,240 Speaker 2: The draft lottery makes way more sense because teams can't say, hey, 1541 01:12:33,600 --> 01:12:36,040 Speaker 2: we're going to suck for two years to their fans, 1542 01:12:36,160 --> 01:12:39,040 Speaker 2: but they can say we're gonna suck for thirty games 1543 01:12:39,800 --> 01:12:42,200 Speaker 2: for the end of the season to be bad, and 1544 01:12:42,479 --> 01:12:45,840 Speaker 2: I think that's that's way more acceptable for for a 1545 01:12:45,880 --> 01:12:47,639 Speaker 2: fan base rather than two years. So if you want 1546 01:12:47,640 --> 01:12:51,479 Speaker 2: to get rid of tanking, I think in some way, 1547 01:12:51,520 --> 01:12:54,320 Speaker 2: shape or form, not entirely, because that just doesn't happen 1548 01:12:54,320 --> 01:12:57,639 Speaker 2: in this way in the in the idea of getting 1549 01:12:58,439 --> 01:13:00,519 Speaker 2: a draft pick to make you better, I think it's 1550 01:13:00,640 --> 01:13:06,240 Speaker 2: telling everybody you got two years and that'll determine your 1551 01:13:06,320 --> 01:13:07,200 Speaker 2: draft lottery odds. 1552 01:13:07,360 --> 01:13:08,400 Speaker 1: Are you up or down on this? 1553 01:13:09,080 --> 01:13:11,439 Speaker 4: I think I'm up. I think this was the plan 1554 01:13:11,479 --> 01:13:15,000 Speaker 4: I like the most was the three. The three that 1555 01:13:15,040 --> 01:13:17,920 Speaker 4: were thrown out, like the two year plan to me, 1556 01:13:18,560 --> 01:13:20,880 Speaker 4: mostly addresses a team like the Pacers who are just 1557 01:13:20,920 --> 01:13:23,400 Speaker 4: going to have a down year, so they completely bottom 1558 01:13:23,439 --> 01:13:26,240 Speaker 4: out and try and lose as many games as possible. 1559 01:13:26,280 --> 01:13:29,400 Speaker 4: That makes so that doesn't happen as regularly. The double 1560 01:13:29,439 --> 01:13:32,000 Speaker 4: lottery didn't ever make any sense to me, because you 1561 01:13:32,040 --> 01:13:33,960 Speaker 4: could have the worst record and drop to number ten, 1562 01:13:34,120 --> 01:13:38,240 Speaker 4: like that just didn't have any sort of reality to me. 1563 01:13:38,320 --> 01:13:40,599 Speaker 4: But I think you, Austin Rivers, I think you hit 1564 01:13:40,640 --> 01:13:43,920 Speaker 4: on the Headkeets. The worst teams won't be as bad. 1565 01:13:44,000 --> 01:13:46,920 Speaker 4: Three teams this year won twenty or fewer games, the Nets, 1566 01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:49,639 Speaker 4: the Pacers, and the Wizards. I think those teams win 1567 01:13:49,760 --> 01:13:52,200 Speaker 4: like twenty four games next year because there is still 1568 01:13:52,240 --> 01:13:54,680 Speaker 4: an incentive to tank. Right now, the Bucks have the 1569 01:13:54,720 --> 01:13:58,800 Speaker 4: tenth best odds in the draft lottery. They have a 1570 01:13:58,840 --> 01:14:01,639 Speaker 4: three percent chance of getting the number one pick. Now 1571 01:14:01,640 --> 01:14:04,480 Speaker 4: you get an eight percent chance. That's a huge upgrade. 1572 01:14:04,720 --> 01:14:06,960 Speaker 4: So why go into the play in tournament? It will 1573 01:14:06,960 --> 01:14:10,160 Speaker 4: be middle tanking rather than bombing. But guess what that means. 1574 01:14:10,600 --> 01:14:13,000 Speaker 4: You don't have any disgusting looking records with a one 1575 01:14:13,320 --> 01:14:16,760 Speaker 4: in the wind call. 1576 01:14:15,520 --> 01:14:19,479 Speaker 1: But could still have, of course, Shenanigans between seventeen as Yeah, well, 1577 01:14:19,479 --> 01:14:21,880 Speaker 1: which is what Silver is trying to address. The only 1578 01:14:21,880 --> 01:14:23,200 Speaker 1: way he's gonna be able to do that. It's just 1579 01:14:23,240 --> 01:14:26,200 Speaker 1: like like he did with some teams. It was weird 1580 01:14:26,280 --> 01:14:29,360 Speaker 1: who he was picking and choosing to penalize, but it's 1581 01:14:29,360 --> 01:14:31,000 Speaker 1: like you got to come down with the hammer on 1582 01:14:31,080 --> 01:14:34,760 Speaker 1: the franchises that are like blatantly sitting out everybody and 1583 01:14:34,800 --> 01:14:38,479 Speaker 1: really trying to throw games against each other. He did 1584 01:14:38,520 --> 01:14:41,639 Speaker 1: it again for two franchises, and the Jazz and Pacers 1585 01:14:41,680 --> 01:14:44,080 Speaker 1: and everybody else. Those two teams are teams of those 1586 01:14:44,640 --> 01:14:47,200 Speaker 1: fans of those teams were going, what about the other teams? Yep, 1587 01:14:47,280 --> 01:14:49,959 Speaker 1: so I'm with them. You're right. There were other blatant 1588 01:14:50,760 --> 01:14:54,599 Speaker 1: tanking shenanigans going on, so you know, if you're gonna 1589 01:14:54,640 --> 01:14:58,400 Speaker 1: do it, do it. But this is the front runner 1590 01:14:58,640 --> 01:15:00,960 Speaker 1: right now. And then, by the way, the order for 1591 01:15:01,000 --> 01:15:03,280 Speaker 1: the league to alter the draft lottery a total of 1592 01:15:03,320 --> 01:15:05,760 Speaker 1: twenty in order a total of twenty three or more 1593 01:15:05,800 --> 01:15:09,360 Speaker 1: owners have to vote in favor for adopting the new proposal. 1594 01:15:09,760 --> 01:15:12,160 Speaker 1: And they're not. They're not like they're not doing yeay 1595 01:15:12,240 --> 01:15:15,080 Speaker 1: or nay on zoom today here. You know this is good. 1596 01:15:15,120 --> 01:15:19,320 Speaker 1: They're talking it out so they could think, yeah, yeah, sure, sure, 1597 01:15:19,840 --> 01:15:20,960 Speaker 1: what do you think, Tom? 1598 01:15:21,200 --> 01:15:21,479 Speaker 2: Tom? 1599 01:15:21,520 --> 01:15:29,120 Speaker 1: Are you there?

I think we got one 1697 01:20:05,080 --> 01:20:07,600 Speaker 1: on that Sunday, Yeah, or whatever a day was. 1698 01:20:08,120 --> 01:20:11,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a Sunday. Was it crazy?

I didn't Yeah, 1701 01:20:14,720 --> 01:20:17,040 Speaker 1: I didn't even have to do a post on substack 1702 01:20:17,120 --> 01:20:19,320 Speaker 1: to grade the weggies because there were no edges degrade. 1703 01:20:19,720 --> 01:20:22,240 Speaker 2: Yeah. I think the highest that we've had in the 1704 01:20:22,240 --> 01:20:24,479 Speaker 2: playoffs is six, which is a lot. 1705 01:20:24,560 --> 01:20:25,080 Speaker 1: That's a lot. 1706 01:20:25,240 --> 01:20:28,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, considering we played eighty to eighty five games, you know, 1707 01:20:28,160 --> 01:20:32,120 Speaker 2: one every whatever, thirteen games, that's that's a good amount. 1708 01:20:32,800 --> 01:20:36,280 Speaker 2: But so far, you know, thirty three games in to 1709 01:20:36,320 --> 01:20:39,880 Speaker 2: the playoffs zero I did its math. Wow, you're saying. 1710 01:20:39,560 --> 01:20:42,720 Speaker 1: We're one third of the way through roughly. 1711 01:20:42,560 --> 01:20:46,240 Speaker 2: Over over one third. Wow, games wise. 1712 01:20:46,040 --> 01:20:48,320 Speaker 1: That's weird. Isn't that just weird? It's just weird right 1713 01:20:48,360 --> 01:20:50,360 Speaker 1: because we're only not even through the first round. Really 1714 01:20:50,400 --> 01:20:53,400 Speaker 1: front Yeah, one series done, front loaded. 1715 01:20:53,560 --> 01:20:55,920 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, there was a year where we only 1716 01:20:55,920 --> 01:21:00,519 Speaker 2: had two in the playoffs. If anyone cares, nobody cares. 1717 01:21:01,240 --> 01:21:04,520 Speaker 2: So yeah, I guess we're on that trajectory. 1718 01:21:04,640 --> 01:21:07,280 Speaker 1: Oh, don't say that. They come in bunches. It's okay, 1719 01:21:07,760 --> 01:21:10,439 Speaker 1: we're getting a weggie tonight.
