29
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 2: the basketball. JD's been waiting for us to talk about. Yeah,

30
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 2: we have a lot, so I guess we'll start with

31
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:43,959
Speaker 2: the big games, or at least the games that had

32
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,759
Speaker 2: sort of the marquee teams or big winning streaks. Continuing,

33
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 2: let's start with Steph Curry scoring twenty seven points to

34
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 2: lead the Warriors past the Celtics one eighteen, one to twelve,

35
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 2: a really entertaining game. I know we'll break it down,

36
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 2: but I wanted to start with something from Chris Bant

37
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 2: Chris Branch, excuse me, from the Athletics Pulse newsletter this morning.

38
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 2: He wrote this, and I want to get your take

39
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 2: on it, everybody watching live and listening later. Late in

40
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 2: Tom Brady's tenure as a Patriot, there was a span

41
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 2: when every season, without fail, we would all wonder if

42
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 2: the dynasty was over. Most of those times, Brady and

43
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:19,520
Speaker 2: Bill Belichick then proved us wrong. So forgive me if

44
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 2: this stretch of Warriors history feels eerily similar. Golden State

45
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,519
Speaker 2: has shockingly not missed a beat despite losing longtime Cornerstone

46
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 2: clay Tops into Dallas. They still have the Belichick that's

47
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 2: Steve Kerr, And they still have the Brady that's Steph Curry.

48
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 2: Maybe that's enough. I thought it was an interesting comparison

49
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 2: between possibly these Curry Warriors to Brady's Patriots.

50
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 3: I think it might be a little bit more like

51
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:47,800
Speaker 3: Tom Brady on the Bucks, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

52
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 2: Hold on Steph Curry is still on the Warriors.

53
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 3: I know, but it's like it's like it feels like

54
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 3: that sense of the Warriors is over. This is a

55
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 3: different version. This is like past that version.

56
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 2: I think you're forgetting how how long Brady and the

57
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 2: Patriots were together first off, and sort of how it

58
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 2: was that dynasty sort of did continue to go and

59
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 2: go and go before the Tom Brady won, maybe will

60
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 2: go to the Hornets and win a championship at the end.

61
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:16,959
Speaker 3: Maybe it's more of the Spurs. Okay, that was super lost.

62
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,959
Speaker 4: That is a great same sport comparison, Like that makes

63
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 4: sense to me. Steph Curry has been called the Tim

64
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 4: Duncan of his generation since Steve Kerr took over coaching there.

65
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:31,640
Speaker 4: That would necessitate a long run, super long, dynastic run.

66
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,080
Speaker 4: So I don't know. Tom Brady is either Tim Duncan

67
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 4: of the NBA or of the NFL probably, but yeah,

68
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 4: I don't know. I mean, this is awesome from the

69
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:43,000
Speaker 4: Warriors for sure. And Curry everybody has said his game

70
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 4: is going to age beautifully, and guess what, his game

71
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 4: is aged.

72
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 3: Beautifully, even after a quick injury, comes back and was

73
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 3: awesome in that fourth quarter where he was just shooting

74
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 3: and shooting and shooting and doing his thing. I don't

75
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 3: know if you can compare the Warriors defense to the

76
00:03:58,080 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 3: Patriots defense. I'm not going to go into the.

77
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 4: But let me pull up a Pro Pro Football reference here,

78
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 4: got some Richard Seymour takes lose, Teddy Bruski I think, Yeah,

79
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 4: especially was big with those offensive rebounds.

80
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,839
Speaker 3: It was a monthster. Yeah, it was fun. It was

81
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:20,040
Speaker 3: fun to watch this Warriors defense because you just didn't

82
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,360
Speaker 3: expect it coming into the season that guys would be

83
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 3: hustling on that end. They really get after the ball

84
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:28,839
Speaker 3: when it's up top the three point line is where

85
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 3: the Warriors just go and scramble behind a guy like

86
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 3: they are good pests. For sure. They try and they

87
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 3: try and push him into Draymond Green and Kevon Looney

88
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 3: who was out there. It's really like what the Milwaukee

89
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 3: Bucks want to be pushing it into Brook Lopez and yeah,

90
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,840
Speaker 3: he said to Google Buck. Guys like Wigans, even Buddy Healed,

91
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 3: Steph Curry who poked that one from behind Derek White.

92
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,919
Speaker 3: That was beautiful stuff. They're all getting after it and

93
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,599
Speaker 3: then they all fall when they need to fall, like

94
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 3: Gary Payton second diving to get a loose ball on

95
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 3: the offensive end, like they're I don't know this. I

96
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,279
Speaker 3: can't compare them to the Patriots defense, but it feels

97
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 3: like a defense that really wants to get after it.

98
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,880
Speaker 3: That was really impressive stuff in that fourth quarter leading

99
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:09,600
Speaker 3: to all those great offensive plays.

100
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,840
Speaker 4: Fourth quarter was interesting. First half was awesome defense from

101
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 4: the Warriors. At the end of the first half, Golden

102
00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:17,279
Speaker 4: State had given up forty points on thirty five percent

103
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,480
Speaker 4: shooting to the Celtics. They had forced ten turnovers. Mike

104
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:21,559
Speaker 4: Breen said this has to be the best defensive half

105
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,279
Speaker 4: any team has played. This season against the Celtics team.

106
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,280
Speaker 4: That is like one of the best offenses we've seen.

107
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 4: Incredible stuff for the Warriors to hold them to forty

108
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 4: and two quarters, then they gave up forty one and

109
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 4: the third. That was pretty funny, man, Just like that.

110
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 4: It was kind of the difference between first half. They're

111
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:37,840
Speaker 4: trapping Tatum. He was turning the ball over like crazy.

112
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 4: Ten like I said, for the Celtics, four alone for Tatum.

113
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,920
Speaker 4: Then they let him just be the screener. It was smart. Yeah,

114
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 4: less turnovers. He got into his bag a little bit.

115
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,719
Speaker 4: But the Warriors were able to hold it off just

116
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 4: because they were able to continue to play defense in

117
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:54,279
Speaker 4: the fourth quarter and get good shots. Great performances I

118
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 4: thought from Looney, he was awesome in this one. Six

119
00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 4: offensive rebounds, he scored six points, had ten boards. I

120
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 4: couldn't believe he had zero screen assists in this game.

121
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 4: I thought he might have had double digit screen assists

122
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,039
Speaker 4: the way he was getting Buddy healed open fifteen offensive

123
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 4: rebounds though for the Warriors, twenty second chance points. To me,

124
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,159
Speaker 4: as Kata, I thought was like a huge player for

125
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 4: the Celtics. He had two dunks. He wanted another one

126
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 4: he got pulled, and that was like the momentum change,

127
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,280
Speaker 4: because I thought the Celtics definitely had the momentum when

128
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 4: Kita was going nuts, dunking all the time. He finished

129
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 4: with fourteen and eight. He comes out and the Warriors

130
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:28,599
Speaker 4: went on a huge run there. Every time they needed

131
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:30,480
Speaker 4: an offensive rebound, it felt like it was Looney, yeah,

132
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 4: making a play either for a three or even had

133
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 4: a put back. Later on, Wiggins played awesome. This was

134
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 4: just great stuff from the Warriors. Kind of a measuring

135
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 4: stick game for them. It's like they hadn't played a

136
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 4: great schedule yet it got maybe the hardest schedule in

137
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 4: the league. For these next four games. They played at Boston,

138
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 4: at Cleveland, at OKC, and then their home against Dallas.

139
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 4: It doesn't get any harder than that. In the NBA.

140
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,360
Speaker 4: They won the first one. So now you have to say,

141
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,720
Speaker 4: these could be the Tom Brady Patriots, right, That's right,

142
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 4: That's what Branches said.

143
00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,919
Speaker 3: Teddy Bruski man coming through there with he had three putbacks.

144
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,599
Speaker 3: Kevon Looney also known as Teddy Bruski that it was

145
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 3: like he was just there. This is the Kevon Looney

146
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 3: of the old championship days. The previous championship days, previous

147
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 3: to twenty twenty two, where he was doing a lot.

148
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 3: You didn't expect a lot of them on this team,

149
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 3: or he would even be on this team. Yeah, so

150
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 3: three garbage buckets, that was just that's exactly what he is.

151
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 3: And I forget what Bruski really did out there a linebacker,

152
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 3: but he did enough. He did they were Yeah, they

153
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 3: got such great variation from heeled two threes in the

154
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 3: second half. Wigan's doing enough. Everybody chipping it this Warriors team.

155
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, we should point out no jail In Brown

156
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 2: for the Celtics. Yeah, I mean, this is an all

157
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 2: NBA guy that they're missing. Of course, No Porzingis hasn't

158
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 2: played it all this season. But yeah, really strong start

159
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 2: to this game for the Warriors. Bad third quarter, but

160
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 2: they finished it really well done. We had Warriors coach

161
00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 2: Steve Kerr getting booed by the TD Garden crowd. They're

162
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 2: showing their displeasure for how Kerry used Tatum at the

163
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:01,680
Speaker 2: Paris Olympics. And you know, there's a lot of like

164
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 2: pregame comments about this. I thought it was it was

165
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 2: all in good fun. I thought like it was sort

166
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 2: of a you know the Celtics fans backing up there, guys,

167
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 2: Okurr then turning around and going like I helped get

168
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 2: a bunch of your other guys gold medals, Like what

169
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 2: the hell here? We had?

170
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 4: Those?

171
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 2: Was it three or four guys sitting in the front

172
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 2: row right by the Warriors bench in tatum Olympic jerseys.

173
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 2: But you know, the Warriors get the last laugh here,

174
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:27,679
Speaker 2: even though Tatum turned it on in the third quarter

175
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,000
Speaker 2: after a rough, rough first half. But what do you

176
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,320
Speaker 2: make of the booing and how they address Steve Kerr there?

177
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,000
Speaker 4: The Warriors only come to Boston once, so you only

178
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 4: get one chance. You gotta seize that moment, eminem. So look,

179
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 4: I honestly can't believe this is still a story.

180
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 3: Right.

181
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 4: Team USA won the gold medal months ago. They didn't

182
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 4: lose a game in the tournament. What Steve Kerr did

183
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 4: worked completely. Sorry to Jason Tatum, you were behind Lebron James,

184
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 4: who's bawling out right now, and behind Kevin Durant, who's

185
00:08:58,760 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 4: maybe the MVP right now.

186
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:01,040
Speaker 2: That's the case.

187
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, obviously Celtics fans were upset, but it's it's honest,

188
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 4: it's weird that this is still a story.

189
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 2: I think the story still be talking. I think the

190
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:11,000
Speaker 2: story is now done, though, I hope. So unless they

191
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:14,360
Speaker 2: meet in the finals, it's in play. I guess with

192
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:15,959
Speaker 2: the way the Warriors are playing, maybe we got to

193
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 2: rematch that. But I think it's done now. I hope,

194
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 2: I hope, because, like you said, it's their only visit

195
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 2: to Boston last year. Then they get like spanked by

196
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 2: like fifty two points did in that game. So yeah,

197
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 2: they got their booze out. They thought Tatum was gonna

198
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 2: have the crazy revenge game. It kept them in check

199
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:31,080
Speaker 2: for the most part.

200
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 3: Uh.

201
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 2: And now it's probably done tests.

202
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 3: Probably probably, yeah, yeah, maybe they're doing Kerr's line that

203
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,880
Speaker 3: he said told the press before the game, let's make

204
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 3: America great again and beat the Celtics. That's what he

205
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,320
Speaker 3: said to the Warriors, right, That's what he said to

206
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 3: the players. But he is doing an incredible job of

207
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 3: just feeling things. Like I said, Looney wouldn't be expected

208
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:55,200
Speaker 3: to play in this many minutes for this team. He

209
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:59,080
Speaker 3: sits trace Jackson Davis in the fourth quarter to play Looney.

210
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,520
Speaker 3: He's just got his fingers on all the right buttons.

211
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:05,079
Speaker 3: These guys look like such a cohesive team, and Chris

212
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 3: branch is right about this team being around for a

213
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,720
Speaker 3: long time, because it sure feels like this team that

214
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 3: really wants to play together again because we didn't see

215
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 3: it a lot last year.

216
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,440
Speaker 2: Anthony Slater on the NBA Daily Today talked about like

217
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 2: Jerry Stackhouse having an impact as an assistant coach, sort

218
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 2: of like lighting a fire once again under this team,

219
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 2: especially defensively, and like Jerry Stackhouse like an outspoken guy

220
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 2: in a good way. And I think you've seen some

221
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 2: sort of effects of him probably being able to call

222
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,199
Speaker 2: out some of the guys maybe energy or effort and

223
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,439
Speaker 2: stuff like that, and they're like, that is Jerry Stackhouse.

224
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:39,160
Speaker 2: I mean, they have some respect for him. So I

225
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,840
Speaker 2: think that's been a great addition to the Steve Kerr

226
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 2: Warriors bench seems like it. And you see him up there. Yeah,

227
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:46,440
Speaker 2: he's very vocal. Yeah he's loud.

228
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:48,920
Speaker 4: He'll fight people. You know, he's got to get respect

229
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 4: from Draymond because Jerry Stackhouse will actually throw hands. But

230
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,240
Speaker 4: you got to give a big shout out to Mike Dunlaby.

231
00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:56,680
Speaker 4: He has been cooking. Bringing in a guy like Jerry

232
00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:59,440
Speaker 4: Stackhouse helpful on the bench. Buddy healed has been awesome

233
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 4: for this team. Kyle Anderson hit three straight threes last night,

234
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,199
Speaker 4: and then you got some of the absolute worst puns

235
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,360
Speaker 4: you've ever seen on Twitter, people trying to force the

236
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,960
Speaker 4: name Clay Thompson into the name Kyle Anderson because there's

237
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:15,320
Speaker 4: like a K and a Y and an L. I'm

238
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,599
Speaker 4: talking to you, Kirk gold Sparing talking.

239
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 2: Specifically Pickles calling you out gold.

240
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 4: Clayile Andrew Thompson, and basically what he was trying to say, thanks,

241
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 4: you're shooting it.

242
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 3: No, I can't, I can't even do it. He's a worseman.

243
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:47,560
Speaker 3: Surprising that he tried. He tried that. Kyle's Ianerson and

244
00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,079
Speaker 3: Clay Thompson. That's a that's a force job.

245
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:54,199
Speaker 4: You can't spell Kyle and Thurmpson without Clay Thompson.

246
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 2: Okay, a little better.

247
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 4: It was hilarious. But man, three straight threes. That was cool.

248
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 3: That was great.

249
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 4: Mike tung Levy knows what he's doing.

250
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:03,800
Speaker 3: Yeah.

251
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, And like you said, like Looney playing like Looney

252
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 2: of previous championships pass and then Wiggins playing like the championship,

253
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:13,199
Speaker 2: you know, late era Warriors championship. Wiggins like it's nice

254
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 2: to see him sort of bouncing back too, and you know,

255
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 2: playing with some life there. So a good win from

256
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:20,440
Speaker 2: the Warriors against a Celtics team that we're missing, obviously

257
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 2: some of their main guys.

258
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 3: It is wild because you don't really need a lot

259
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,240
Speaker 3: from Jonathan Kaminga this season at all, because you've got

260
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 3: so much going on from everybody else. So I've heard

261
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 3: some some of the rumors when you mentioned Jerry Stackhouse.

262
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 3: Apparently Jerry and Kaminga haven't gotten along incredibly. Well, maybe

263
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:37,679
Speaker 3: he's gotten under his skinned a little bit, but Cominga

264
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:39,720
Speaker 3: just hasn't been the same player as last year, and

265
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 3: they haven't necessarily needed it because everybody is stepping up.

266
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 2: Let's go to Jokich with the big triple double and

267
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:50,800
Speaker 2: I mean big twenty three points, twenty boards, sixteen assists.

268
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:54,839
Speaker 2: It's also had Peyton Watson with a late block. All

269
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 2: of that combined together gives the Thunder their first loss

270
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:01,200
Speaker 2: of the season because the Nuggets win a close one.

271
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 2: Pickle Man, let's start with you. So big win for

272
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,800
Speaker 2: Denver here, obviously handing okayse the first last.

273
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,240
Speaker 4: Big win and a big beef, right, ok Man, It

274
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 4: look crazy when you see like the House of Highlights

275
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 4: page and it says twenty three points and then twenty sixteen.

276
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,320
Speaker 4: It just looked like twenty three to twenty sixteen. They

277
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,600
Speaker 4: didn't know how to fit that rebount number, I thought

278
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:21,960
Speaker 4: on the highlight tape. But yeah, this was an awesome

279
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,800
Speaker 4: win for the Nuggets, able to knock off the thunder

280
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 4: for the first time. And I gotta give a big

281
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:30,520
Speaker 4: shout out to Mike Malone clutch technical foul. I thought

282
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 4: in the third quarter, Denver came out with zero energy.

283
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 4: I fought in the third eight minutes, twenty two seconds left,

284
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 4: Denver is down fourteen. At this point, they turned the

285
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:41,679
Speaker 4: ball over three times in the first three minutes. Players

286
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 4: look dead out there, Fans sounded dead out there. You

287
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 4: got Scott Hastings on the broadcast after a turnover, he said,

288
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 4: the body language has got to be better. When you

289
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,560
Speaker 4: make a mistake, you gotta be ted Lasso, you gotta

290
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 4: be a goldfish. Then Michael Malone gets a tech after

291
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 4: Jokic drives into the hoop, he gets fouled. No call,

292
00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 4: Malone was crazy. Nuggets then made ten of their next

293
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 4: eleven shots. Jokic kind of gets a bad whistle honestly

294
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:07,559
Speaker 4: for being a three time MVP, though he may have been.

295
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:09,319
Speaker 2: They got one nice one.

296
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:09,800
Speaker 3: But I thought the.

297
00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,960
Speaker 4: Nuggets got so many contributions a great team win for them.

298
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:16,199
Speaker 4: Michael Porter Junior hit six threes. The Nuggets made ten

299
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,240
Speaker 4: in the second half alone. The young guys had Juice.

300
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,360
Speaker 4: Christian Brown hit a three in the fourth quarter, Peyton

301
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 4: Watson hit a three in the fourth quarter, Julian Strawther

302
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 4: had a nice tip dunk Brown. Christian Brown was just

303
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 4: pushing on the brake all the time. Obviously Watson had

304
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,280
Speaker 4: the block, and then Westbrook Man he brought the intensity,

305
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 4: he pushed the pace, and he kind of set the tone.

306
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:37,920
Speaker 4: It looks hilarious that he's the only starter that has

307
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,360
Speaker 4: a negative plus minus a minus fourteen because of that

308
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 4: bad run right at the end of the second quarter.

309
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 4: But I thought he kept playing hard and obviously he

310
00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 4: was inspiring everybody. Nobody likes injuries, but it forces Michael

311
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 4: Malone to have to play these young guys. Everybody but

312
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,440
Speaker 4: Hunter Tyson was good. I thought, So that's what they

313
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:56,280
Speaker 4: needed to be able to beat a team like the

314
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:57,480
Speaker 4: Thunder who hadn't lost it.

315
00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, really, the young guys gave him Juice without Joal

316
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 3: Murray and Aaron Gordon along with Russbrook. He Westbrook deserves

317
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 3: some respect in this game.

318
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,040
Speaker 2: He hit threes last night. She did in that flour too.

319
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, in that third quarter run, when it seemed like

320
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 3: the Nuggets were dead, I thought it was over. They

321
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 3: went on an incredible run led by Westbrook and the

322
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 3: kids and Jokic from the third to the fourth quarter,

323
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 3: a twenty three to six run. But you see guys

324
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:26,600
Speaker 3: performing extremely well off Nikolae Jokic. Christian Brown just stepped

325
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 3: up and hit a big three with four minutes left.

326
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 3: I thought when you brought up the puns a little

327
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:34,360
Speaker 3: bit earlier on you were going with Chris Marlow. The

328
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:36,160
Speaker 3: Nuggets played by play man who said a lot of

329
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:39,120
Speaker 3: Brownie points for that one. That was a good one.

330
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 3: And then he played the Aaron Gordon role. Christian Brown

331
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 3: was literally playing the I'm going to cut when our

332
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 3: big man who can pass anybody on the floor, I'll

333
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 3: do that. I got that, and it was the Aaron

334
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:52,680
Speaker 3: Gordon A beautiful play from there. Yeah, Julianus Strather and

335
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 3: I put back dunk after that, and he hit key

336
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:57,800
Speaker 3: free throws and they put him to the bench and

337
00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:00,360
Speaker 3: Peyton Watson somehow he showed up. He only had one

338
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 3: bang three home because he's not a three point shooter,

339
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 3: and he you know, he really clanked another one where

340
00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:07,800
Speaker 3: Chris Marlin was like, well he missed that one by

341
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 3: a lot, because he did, but he missed two throw

342
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 3: two free throw sixteen. Yeah, and missed two free throws,

343
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 3: but then blocked Shay to end the game. When Shay

344
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 3: went right back right by Russell Westbrook and it looked

345
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:24,640
Speaker 3: like he had so much room. He had a ton

346
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 3: of room, it felt like. But then Peyton Watson came

347
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,520
Speaker 3: out of nowhere for that block to win the game.

348
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, he did have a lot of room. I thought

349
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 2: the thunder really specifically Sga because he had the ball

350
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,040
Speaker 2: in his hands. They they sort of botched that last

351
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:41,040
Speaker 2: play because Watson misses the free throws. Caruso awesome rebound.

352
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 2: It was Jokic, he had it and Cruso.

353
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:45,240
Speaker 3: Just took it from him a monster.

354
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 2: Went and got it. And then when they were coming up,

355
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:50,600
Speaker 2: Caruso set like a backscreen on Jokic. The Yogis didn't see,

356
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 2: didn't you know, get called out or anything. He sort

357
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 2: of blew up on that play, it was five on

358
00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 2: four and SGA had the ball with only Russ on

359
00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 2: the right side of the floor. Obviously it was of

360
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 2: time still, but he was like he's he sort of

361
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 2: slowed it down, he slowed it up and he wanted

362
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:07,680
Speaker 2: to ISO on Russ from the top, which is fine,

363
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:09,680
Speaker 2: and he did blow by him. But then the help

364
00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,960
Speaker 2: was there. I think maybe you know, you know, uh

365
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,119
Speaker 2: Thursday morning quarterback here, but uh, he probably should have

366
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,679
Speaker 2: attacked Westbrook in transition when it was sort of a

367
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:20,439
Speaker 2: five on four and it was really that side of

368
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 2: the floor was open. I think he probably would have

369
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:23,920
Speaker 2: got to the line or probably scored on him. But yeah,

370
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,240
Speaker 2: steady ISO to the top and great help from Watson

371
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:29,120
Speaker 2: to go up and get it at its apex because

372
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,400
Speaker 2: SGA shot it pretty damn high too, the little lefty

373
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 2: whatever he was doing there. So yeah, great great redemption

374
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 2: there from Watson, who did miss those two free throws. Yes,

375
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:36,800
Speaker 2: I could have iced it.

376
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 3: Yes, it's a Thursday night football game tonight Thursday spangles Rave. Okay,

377
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:46,440
Speaker 3: that's a good one versus Lamar what you got? Yeah,

378
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 3: the first guy Lamar man.

379
00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:52,439
Speaker 2: Yo kid ranks second in the NBA in total points

380
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 2: first and rebounds second and assists m VP. He's got

381
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 2: four triple doubles, narrowly missed out on two others by

382
00:17:58,080 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 2: like one assist in one of them and maybe one

383
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,440
Speaker 2: rebound in another one. Yeah, that's why I brought that up.

384
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:07,040
Speaker 2: It's pretty amazing. He's almost leading every of your major

385
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 2: categories in all of them. So good start for him

386
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 2: as he gets the helps drag the nugget. Excuse me

387
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 2: to another w.

388
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:17,920
Speaker 3: I thought when we be talking triple double that John

389
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 3: Williams would come up. He had a near triple double

390
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:21,600
Speaker 3: twenty nine, ten and nine, his best game of the

391
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,240
Speaker 3: season as a member of the Thunder for sure. He

392
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,640
Speaker 3: looking like he's just feeling it. Yeah, got it going

393
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:28,240
Speaker 3: in the fourth court.

394
00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:30,399
Speaker 2: After a very slow start to the season, he is

395
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,399
Speaker 2: starting to turn it on a little bit. Donovan Mitchell

396
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:35,679
Speaker 2: scored twenty nine as the Calves beat the Pelicans one

397
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 2: thirty one to one twenty two, their first nine oh

398
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:42,480
Speaker 2: start in franchise history. Calves have been around for fifty

399
00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:45,159
Speaker 2: five years and they've never gone nine and oh to

400
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:48,520
Speaker 2: all of a start. They're playing the injury depleted Pelicans,

401
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 2: who put up a good fight like they did, just

402
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:53,360
Speaker 2: sort of didn't have the firepower to keep up, and

403
00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,760
Speaker 2: Cavs get another one because they just can't miss. Towns

404
00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 2: are shooting an insane percentage as a team. I've watched every.

405
00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 4: Pelicans game this week, and they just do not have

406
00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:06,600
Speaker 4: enough guys. They fall apart in the second half of

407
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:08,520
Speaker 4: every one of these games. And they're three games this week.

408
00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:10,480
Speaker 4: They've got a minus thirty five net rating in the

409
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,480
Speaker 4: second half, and it feels like it they just can't

410
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:17,359
Speaker 4: get shots. And you saw the complete opposite for the Cavaliers.

411
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:19,800
Speaker 4: They got into early offense. The entire time I was watching.

412
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 4: I must have been watching the Pelicans broadcast and Antonio

413
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:25,640
Speaker 4: Daniels was just saying, early offense, early offense. The Pelicans

414
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:27,760
Speaker 4: don't do that. It's a struggle for them to score,

415
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,200
Speaker 4: even having Zion and Ingram out there. They just play

416
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 4: a little bit slower, trying to get into their shots. Meanwhile,

417
00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,120
Speaker 4: the Cavs are flying up and down the court. They're

418
00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:38,160
Speaker 4: tenth in pace this season after twenty second last year.

419
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 4: Twenty six fast break points against the Pelicans last night,

420
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 4: sixty four points in the paint plus seventeen to threes.

421
00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:46,480
Speaker 4: Like they are shooting really well, but they're also getting

422
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:48,960
Speaker 4: great shots. Both of their guards are sweet in Mitchell

423
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,120
Speaker 4: and Garland. They can get anywhere they want to right now.

424
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 4: And both of their big guys in Mobley and Allen,

425
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,760
Speaker 4: are devastating finishers inside. So it's a perfect mix right now.

426
00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 4: They've been playing together for enough seasons that they know

427
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:01,440
Speaker 4: where they're at, and they've come out of the gates

428
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:04,200
Speaker 4: screaming because Kenny Atkinson said, let's go a little faster.

429
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,399
Speaker 4: Don't let him set up and play defense. We're faster

430
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 4: than them.

431
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:10,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, and everybody gets to touch it. That always surprises

432
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 3: the other team, and the Pelicans were ready to play,

433
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 3: but it was just this guy, then this guy, then

434
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:17,960
Speaker 3: this guy, then this guy. Those four guys you mentioned,

435
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 3: the two guards and the two biggs, who have played

436
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,399
Speaker 3: perfectly together. It was a question coming into the season

437
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 3: whether or not Alan and Mobley could do it. They

438
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,280
Speaker 3: do it so well. They've scored now as a team

439
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:30,879
Speaker 3: one hundred and thirty in four games. One hundred and

440
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 3: thirty or more, I should say in four games. They've

441
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:34,920
Speaker 3: got the best offense in the league. Because you don't

442
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 3: know who they're going through the play starts, maybe it

443
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:39,880
Speaker 3: starts with Van Mobley, maybe it starts with Mitchell, maybe

444
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 3: it starts with Garland. They've got four guys taking double

445
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:46,679
Speaker 3: shots this season, and now Ocorro is the fifth starter

446
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:49,399
Speaker 3: for only these last two games. But Kenny Atkinson is

447
00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:52,800
Speaker 3: already trying new things. And then you've got Carroselovert back

448
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 3: from his injury, who's a monster off the bench. This

449
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,119
Speaker 3: is the best Carselvert we've ever seen. He has to

450
00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,560
Speaker 3: be the sixth man right now. He's taking a few

451
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 3: shots of his career, but he hits them at a

452
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:05,800
Speaker 3: ridiculously good rate because he's such a good passer. I

453
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 3: think the sixty percent from the floor and fifty two

454
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,159
Speaker 3: percent from three will fall down. But man, I've never

455
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 3: seen run him run a team like this. He's running

456
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:14,359
Speaker 3: that second unit so well.

457
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,239
Speaker 2: Cleveland is shooting fifty three percent from the floor as

458
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:20,439
Speaker 2: a team this season. It's good. But like I'm with you, TK,

459
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:23,000
Speaker 2: it's it's okay. Maybe it dips down a little bit.

460
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:24,399
Speaker 2: They'll have some nights where they can't hit some of

461
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:27,040
Speaker 2: these shots, but like they're not like, oh my god,

462
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:29,479
Speaker 2: this guy is just got guys draped all over him

463
00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,679
Speaker 2: and he's just on a heater. They're just generating incredible looks.

464
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,159
Speaker 2: And you know, obviously Alan basically never misses with the

465
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:37,480
Speaker 2: his sort of shot diet sort of mobile as well

466
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,920
Speaker 2: the way he's cooking inside. So yeah, really really good.

467
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:42,200
Speaker 2: They did an effective field goal percentage last night sixty

468
00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 2: three percent as a team, hitting threes, you know, not

469
00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:47,639
Speaker 2: getting to the line a ton, but ten to thirteen

470
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:49,520
Speaker 2: when they got there, and then just knocking them all down.

471
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:51,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, want to start. I don't want to make the

472
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:54,320
Speaker 3: Celtics comparison, but it's a little Celtics like in how

473
00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:57,400
Speaker 3: they share it so much, like Donovan Mitchell's only averaging

474
00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:00,560
Speaker 3: twenty four a game, and then it's garl In nearly

475
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 3: twenty and then Mobley seventeen and Allen fifteenth. They just

476
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 3: let everybody touch, let everybody eat, and that's why they're

477
00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:08,280
Speaker 3: so freaking good.

478
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:10,720
Speaker 2: One of the games of the night last night was

479
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:14,960
Speaker 2: Brandon Miller with the putback at the buzzer to lift

480
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:18,440
Speaker 2: the Hornets to the dramatic one eight one oh seven victory.

481
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,320
Speaker 2: And this sort of like I guess some similarity to

482
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 2: Peyton Watson who got a little redemption after missing the

483
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 2: three throws have been coming up with the late block

484
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 2: on SGA because Miller had a bad turnover. He got

485
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:30,760
Speaker 2: caught in like a double team. They're just trying to

486
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,120
Speaker 2: run out the clock. They're gonna win this game. Pistons

487
00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:36,880
Speaker 2: wrestled the ball away from him. Ronald Ronald ron Holland

488
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 2: picks up the loose ball and goes, you know, the

489
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:41,840
Speaker 2: rest of the court for the go ahead layup with

490
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 2: six seconds last, and you think, wow, Pistons maybe just

491
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:47,960
Speaker 2: stole this from them, literally just grabbed it from them.

492
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:50,760
Speaker 2: But the Pistons played some good defense on the final

493
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:54,960
Speaker 2: possession but forgot to box out and nice putback from

494
00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:57,440
Speaker 2: Brandon Miller for the game winner. Basically right at the buzzer.

495
00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:01,600
Speaker 4: That one's on. JB bicks to me lineup Jade and Ivy,

496
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,680
Speaker 4: Malik Beasley, Ron Holland, Tobias Harris and Tim Hardaway Junior.

497
00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 4: Not a surprise he gave up an offensive rebound.

498
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:10,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, Jalen Duran left the game early in the first quarter,

499
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:12,080
Speaker 2: so he would have probably denote that you're thinking would

500
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 2: beefste Yeah, beef.

501
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:17,119
Speaker 4: Nocade either, Yeah, Like those are three of your tallest guys.

502
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:18,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, the tallest guy in the court.

503
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:19,959
Speaker 4: Got the offensive rebound.

504
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:23,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, Miller, Yeah, yeah, Beasley went I mean sorry, Miller

505
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 3: went right by Beasley. It was he just blew the

506
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:30,160
Speaker 3: box out by a lot. And yeah, it was a great,

507
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:32,760
Speaker 3: great recovery there for Brandon Miller because he gave it

508
00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:35,400
Speaker 3: to Ron Holland who had a beautiful lay in. How

509
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:38,280
Speaker 3: he handled himself mid air. It turned like three sixty

510
00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:41,080
Speaker 3: to drop that in. But it was a whole wild play.

511
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:43,199
Speaker 3: It was just a fun theatrical play for them to

512
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:45,879
Speaker 3: for the Hornets to inbound it the first time before

513
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:48,879
Speaker 3: the turnover, and it was almost five seconds. I was

514
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 3: so close. Play by play man said you gotta been

515
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,600
Speaker 3: bound it and they barely got it in and then yes,

516
00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:01,480
Speaker 3: that's it. Yeah, he was cooking. He was grand to board.

517
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:03,560
Speaker 4: He got an offensive rebound with a minute left, Lamello

518
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 4: one handed rebound. He's stronger than everyone else on the

519
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 4: I thought that was crazy. Lamela didn't even respond to that.

520
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:17,760
Speaker 4: I agree, no, thank you. Lamela was amazing. Two threes

521
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:19,919
Speaker 4: in a layup basically to take the lead in the

522
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:21,960
Speaker 4: fourth quarter, and then he missed the shop. But you know,

523
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:23,359
Speaker 4: nice follow up, dude.

524
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:26,760
Speaker 3: At fifteen in the fourth quarter. He just loves big

525
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:30,040
Speaker 3: time plays. I mean, he just can do it anytime.

526
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:33,359
Speaker 3: He looks like the best version of himself. And yeah,

527
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,600
Speaker 3: goodwin obviously for them, that was nice and dramatic.

528
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,720
Speaker 2: I'm getting I know, it's only year three. I'm getting

529
00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 2: concerned with Jayalen Duran though that there might be some

530
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:48,119
Speaker 2: Mitchell Robinson or time Lord Robert Williams the third to

531
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:50,320
Speaker 2: this guy in terms of just staying on the floor,

532
00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 2: because I think he is an impactful big that does

533
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,920
Speaker 2: help the team. But like in his rookie year he

534
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:57,520
Speaker 2: missed like a quarter of the season. Last year he

535
00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 2: missed about a quarter of the season. Now he has

536
00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:01,399
Speaker 2: the ankle injury in the one. Hopefully it's nothing too severe,

537
00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:03,639
Speaker 2: but like God, like he needs to be out there

538
00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:05,639
Speaker 2: for the Pistons to obviously, like you don't even sniff

539
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 2: a chance of like maybe knocking on a plane indoor.

540
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:09,399
Speaker 2: But I just hope he's not one of these like

541
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:12,960
Speaker 2: super big athletic guys who again helps defensively, helps on

542
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,480
Speaker 2: the glass, but like for whatever reason has these games

543
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 2: where he just or seasons where he misses have to

544
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:19,960
Speaker 2: ac quord of them. I just pray that's not the

545
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 2: case with him. Because you know they had a size

546
00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:24,480
Speaker 2: advantage coming into that game. There's no Mark Williams, there's

547
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:27,919
Speaker 2: no Nick Richards, and so Jyalen Duran. Sorry Eric Collins,

548
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,120
Speaker 2: he's the strongest guy on the floor. He should have been,

549
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,480
Speaker 2: but then has to leave. So yeah, crazy, crazy ending

550
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:35,720
Speaker 2: to that one with Brandon Miller getting the game winning

551
00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:39,280
Speaker 2: put back Risha che Let's talk about the rook here

552
00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,639
Speaker 2: in Atlanta. Thirty three points Trey Kirby. I think he

553
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 2: just took over Zach Edie for a Rookie.

554
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:45,120
Speaker 4: Of the year.

555
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:47,720
Speaker 2: One rookie of the year. Last night, There you go,

556
00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:50,160
Speaker 2: There you go, thirty three points, most by a rookie

557
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:52,080
Speaker 2: of this season. He had seven boards, three assists, three steals,

558
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,200
Speaker 2: and two block shots as the Hawks beat the Knicks.

559
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:56,159
Speaker 3: Here in the Fortress, we get a new rookie of

560
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 3: the year every night.

561
00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 2: That's the beauty of this game.

562
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:01,000
Speaker 3: It keeps changing. The last three nights of games, the

563
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:03,600
Speaker 3: leader in Rookie of the year scoring has flopped. After

564
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:06,680
Speaker 3: Sunday it was Jalen Wells of the Memphis Grizzy, then

565
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:08,960
Speaker 3: zachiaed He went and stole it from him, his teammate,

566
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 3: and then after Wednesday. It's Reese amazing that no one

567
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:17,880
Speaker 3: can say correctly in terms of like if you ask

568
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:23,200
Speaker 3: Siri to play a podcast, Okay, it's Riskker. Oh yeah.

569
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:26,200
Speaker 3: Riskker had a career high at thirty three points. It's

570
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:29,359
Speaker 3: a tough name out there, but he's a great player.

571
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 4: Ye Sae on the mix broadcast last night. So that's

572
00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:36,840
Speaker 4: why I think Clyde kept calling him the neophyte. Oh yeah,

573
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 4: just changed like the entire second half just called him

574
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:44,280
Speaker 4: the neophyte. But was awesome. Most threes by a rookie

575
00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 4: so far this season. He had six of them, and

576
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,800
Speaker 4: it was basically just making the Knicks pay for helping.

577
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,359
Speaker 4: Most of his threes were wide open Josh Hart, like

578
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:54,600
Speaker 4: going to double team and he's popping a three, but

579
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:56,680
Speaker 4: you gotta knock him down. He made all of them.

580
00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 4: I also think he has pretty solid fundamentals. He just

581
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,440
Speaker 4: always seems to be in the right place. Seven rebounds

582
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,080
Speaker 4: last night I thought was kind of huge, like he's

583
00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 4: jumping over smaller guys for boards. Big Johnson twenty three points,

584
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:10,680
Speaker 4: fifteen rebounds, seven assists. That's a nice looking set of

585
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 4: wings right there, and Jalen Johnson down the line You're like,

586
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 4: we got the guy who's maybe more of a shooter

587
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:19,960
Speaker 4: in Recesche, we got more of the driver in Jalen Johnson.

588
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,439
Speaker 4: You can see why the Hawks like that pairing.

589
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:25,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm liking you guys starting to buy in with

590
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 3: Dyson Daniels beside him. Those three guys are playing the

591
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:29,160
Speaker 3: two three four.

592
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:32,120
Speaker 4: Ye look at that defense.

593
00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:34,679
Speaker 3: Look at those guys. They could hold hold arms and

594
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 3: reach it from sideline to sideline. They are monstrous and Recessche, Yeah,

595
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:40,280
Speaker 3: he just does get it. I mean, there was that

596
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:41,920
Speaker 3: play where he got to steal. He brought it up.

597
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:44,240
Speaker 3: Somebody gave him lots of rooms, so he just stepped

598
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,720
Speaker 3: into a three. Did it all he had to put back.

599
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 3: He shut down the cat, the big cat, Karl Anthony

600
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:52,879
Speaker 3: Town's with a minute forty five left, and then he

601
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:54,880
Speaker 3: had to push shot the next possession, like he does

602
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,200
Speaker 3: a lot on that team. Right now, he's already starting

603
00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:01,639
Speaker 3: for DeAndre Hunter, which only make sense. But Hunter is

604
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,399
Speaker 3: he's hurt currently. He's a little like you know, the

605
00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:06,800
Speaker 3: Mitchell Robinson's they miss a lot of games. Will he

606
00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 3: come back and take Resachet's starting spot? I don't see

607
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:10,320
Speaker 3: how you do that.

608
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:11,080
Speaker 2: He shouldn't.

609
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:14,440
Speaker 3: He should not, but Resache does a lot. He's three

610
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:16,720
Speaker 3: steals and two blocks to go along with the boards

611
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 3: in thirty three points. The guy is just he's ready

612
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:24,000
Speaker 3: at nineteen. I mean, he's a freaking kid, so he's

613
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:27,679
Speaker 3: gonna get better obviously, But I wouldn't mind the Hawks

614
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,200
Speaker 3: just doing it. Just let him roll. Oh, let them play.

615
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:33,119
Speaker 2: Should absolutely should. Hawks were down a couple possessions with

616
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:34,679
Speaker 2: like three minutes to go, like it looked like they

617
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:36,159
Speaker 2: were maybe going to lose this game. Then they went

618
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:39,360
Speaker 2: on a crazy, like thirteen to one run to end

619
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 2: the game. And I don't know if you caught the

620
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 2: clip after the game of Trey Young talking with Big

621
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:47,200
Speaker 2: Tigger on the mic so the crowd can hear him,

622
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,480
Speaker 2: and Trey Young went like villain mode and like started

623
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 2: calling out all the Knicks fans in attendance, like yeah,

624
00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:55,720
Speaker 2: you know, hope you get out of here quickly, and

625
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:58,440
Speaker 2: like then you could hear them start booing again. He's like, oh,

626
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:01,840
Speaker 2: he started mocking their booze. It was pretty great. Like

627
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 2: I know there's a great rivalry between Trey Young and

628
00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:06,640
Speaker 2: Knicks fans is usually happening in Madison Square garden, but

629
00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 2: a lot of Knicks fans here in the cities, maybe

630
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 2: some come down. I don't know. You get like that

631
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 2: fifty to fifty crowd, right and the fortress between Nix

632
00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 2: and Hawks and Trey Young got the last laugh last night.

633
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:22,200
Speaker 2: I like that he addressed it hilarious. Yeah, you infiltrated

634
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:26,360
Speaker 2: our fortress. But like you gotta leave now, Yeah, across

635
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:27,560
Speaker 2: the drum bridge, get out out here.

636
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 4: Sorry.

637
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 2: So the Hawk's gonna win and the Knixt look, I mean,

638
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:34,240
Speaker 2: the defenses, it's it's it's pretty rough right now. They're

639
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:36,160
Speaker 2: not really stopping teams. Giving up one hundred and twenty

640
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:38,760
Speaker 2: one here to the Hawks not a good look. And

641
00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:41,200
Speaker 2: even when you were talking about the great wings performances

642
00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 2: from the Hawks, it's like, hold on, wasn't that supposed

643
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 2: to be the things the Knicks we're gonna be good

644
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:48,520
Speaker 2: at sort of shutting down the opponent wings. When you

645
00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 2: got og and you got mckail bridges and even Josh

646
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 2: Hart though he's undersize, it's like that's not a good

647
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:55,640
Speaker 2: start here for the Knicks, who have a worse record

648
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 2: than the Hawks right now, the only have three wins.

649
00:29:57,720 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, the Hawks missed in a lot of shots that

650
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 3: I mentioned our man Didyce and Daniels. He had a

651
00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:04,400
Speaker 3: very quiet night three of sixteen, and Trey Young didn't

652
00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:05,840
Speaker 3: have a great night shooting the ball, but they kept

653
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:08,800
Speaker 3: getting more shots because they kept on grabbing offensive rebounds.

654
00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:12,160
Speaker 3: So that was I think the math in it all.

655
00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 3: And their bench just held up. I'm surprised with this

656
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:17,960
Speaker 3: Hawks bench, how decent it's been. They don't kind of

657
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:21,200
Speaker 3: go and beat the other team's bench, but they just

658
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 3: got to hold it even and somehow the Hawks starters

659
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:25,960
Speaker 3: did enough to win this game. I'm talking in Neck

660
00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 3: and Congo back from injury, Keating Wallace, Keith Wallace, and

661
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 3: Garrison Matthews. They did enough out there to just float

662
00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:34,800
Speaker 3: and then the boys come in and yeah there again,

663
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:38,240
Speaker 3: treyng did not have a game like he did in

664
00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:40,680
Speaker 3: the series against the New York Knicks in twenty twenty one.

665
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:42,920
Speaker 3: It was It wasn't a pretty Tree Young game, although

666
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:45,959
Speaker 3: he had some good plays, but I mean they just

667
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:49,400
Speaker 3: again they got guys who go after it on the

668
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:51,680
Speaker 3: offensive glass. That was big after this team.

669
00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:54,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, the rebounding was huge because somehow the Knicks hit

670
00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:57,560
Speaker 2: twenty two threes and still still lose this game. Down

671
00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:00,360
Speaker 2: the stretch through the Hawks started to do go to

672
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,920
Speaker 2: Kevin Durant scoring thirty two points as the Suns rally

673
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:06,680
Speaker 2: from fifteen down to beat the Heat one fifteen to

674
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:09,240
Speaker 2: one to twelve. They're six win in a row and

675
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 2: another close game. I was wondering about the thunders loss

676
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 2: last night till the Nuggets like, oh, yeah, the Thunder

677
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:17,560
Speaker 2: haven't really had to play many close games this year. First, well,

678
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:19,880
Speaker 2: maybe they're a little rusty when it gets into the

679
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,239
Speaker 2: clutch situations. Maybe that's why the Nuggets pulled it out.

680
00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:24,280
Speaker 2: That's not an issue for the Suns. Here tasks like

681
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:28,959
Speaker 2: every game, clutch minutes, clutch performances, and for more more

682
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 2: times than not, they're winning these.

683
00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:33,000
Speaker 3: Yeah. And I think I'm looking here at our lower third,

684
00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:36,400
Speaker 3: the bottom bar of our our screen. Here. It may

685
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:38,760
Speaker 3: not be clunch time yet. Now it's clutch time where

686
00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 3: it comes through, just like the Phoenix, Suns just wanted

687
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:44,600
Speaker 3: to just wanted to really hold on until he's raining all.

688
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:45,720
Speaker 2: His birthday texts over there.

689
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:51,239
Speaker 3: I believe, no, no, you know this is yeah, it's

690
00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 3: a clutch Gaven. The big thing is, I think they're

691
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:55,560
Speaker 3: shooting way more threes than last year. Buonholzer comes in

692
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:57,920
Speaker 3: and says, let's do that. They're shooting seven or eight

693
00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 3: more threes a game their bottom like sixteen last year

694
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:05,960
Speaker 3: and another top eight. And they're running Heywood Heighmith. That Kevin Durant,

695
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,680
Speaker 3: he's way too small. Like way back in the day,

696
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:10,640
Speaker 3: you could try and get small with Ken Durant and

697
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:13,080
Speaker 3: push him, but he was just literally shooting over Heywo

698
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,240
Speaker 3: Highsmith over and over and over again. And you gotta

699
00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:19,640
Speaker 3: feel good about the Sun's team that somehow does it

700
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:23,680
Speaker 3: with guys like the Bosnian Beasts going twenty and eighteen,

701
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 3: like they got enough from their guys to come back

702
00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:28,440
Speaker 3: on this Heat team that had a horrible play. We're

703
00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:33,280
Speaker 3: talking about the weird play to end Hornets Pistons the

704
00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:34,960
Speaker 3: heat I was terrible.

705
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:36,520
Speaker 2: Jimmy was at.

706
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:40,160
Speaker 3: Looking at that.

707
00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:43,160
Speaker 2: Let explain it for those maybe that didn't catch it.

708
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:45,920
Speaker 4: Well, you gotta worry about the inbounder, Jimmy Butler inbounds

709
00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:48,000
Speaker 4: the ball. I forget which heat guard caught it. They

710
00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:52,520
Speaker 4: doubled Rosier, They double Rosier, dish it to Jimmy. He's

711
00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:55,160
Speaker 4: two steps inside the three point guard, but they're down three.

712
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:56,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, so he's like.

713
00:32:58,520 --> 00:32:59,480
Speaker 4: Austin Powers mode.

714
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:00,400
Speaker 3: Do I go No.

715
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:02,960
Speaker 4: He takes two steps back, and then that was obviously

716
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:04,840
Speaker 4: enough time to help off the quarter three point shooter.

717
00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:06,840
Speaker 4: So he goes up to shoot, the help is there,

718
00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:08,680
Speaker 4: He's got to pass it. They basically just didn't get

719
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 4: a shot off. Meanwhile, Kevin Durant I was a little

720
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:13,880
Speaker 4: jealous of our guy s on the NBA Daily today

721
00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:16,000
Speaker 4: because I will saying I put in my notes, Katie's

722
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,800
Speaker 4: at the MVP table. As took up further, he said,

723
00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:20,040
Speaker 4: Katie's the MVP right now.

724
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 3: Wow.

725
00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:23,720
Speaker 4: Wow, I don't know if I disagree. The dude is

726
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:27,240
Speaker 4: taking over every fourth quarter. Yeah, eleven last night on

727
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:29,760
Speaker 4: four of six shooting. He did get a gift from

728
00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:32,760
Speaker 4: use of Nurkic hitting a thirty five footer after he

729
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,960
Speaker 4: had a thirty footer in the first half. Nurkics two

730
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:38,080
Speaker 4: thirty foot threes in a game they win by three.

731
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:41,360
Speaker 4: Maybe he's the MVP, but honestly, kad like he's bringing

732
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:44,040
Speaker 4: it defensively. He's their go to guy right now, and

733
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:45,680
Speaker 4: in the fourth quarter, you think he's going to score

734
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:47,240
Speaker 4: every time he touches the ball. And here's the other

735
00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:49,720
Speaker 4: good thing, with Mike Pudenholzler. He gets Kevin Durant the

736
00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 4: ball all the time. Yeah, it's not as much of

737
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:56,240
Speaker 4: a fair distribution of players. We're going through Katie because

738
00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:56,880
Speaker 4: he's our best guy.

739
00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:01,360
Speaker 2: Yeah. Interestingly enough, Basketball Reference doesn't even have Kevin Durant

740
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:04,600
Speaker 2: in the top ten of the MVP war track right now.

741
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:06,880
Speaker 2: What up with that? I'm with you, TK, He's at

742
00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:10,480
Speaker 2: least at the table in our MVP restaurant. But it's

743
00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:15,200
Speaker 2: they got Jokic, Sabonis, Tatum, SGA, Jared Allen, Darius Garland.

744
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:16,400
Speaker 2: I mean a lot of cats here because they're not

745
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:19,319
Speaker 2: going to know Devin Booker though, and then j dub

746
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:22,399
Speaker 2: a d and Buddy Heals cracking the top ten there. Yeah,

747
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,840
Speaker 2: surprising Buddy Hills on fire Man. Buddy Hill might be

748
00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:29,319
Speaker 2: the leading most improved and six man that they're doing now.

749
00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:33,160
Speaker 2: But yeah, KD, I think you would agree with Trey

750
00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:35,520
Speaker 2: right now. He should be on that list. Yeah, he's

751
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:36,480
Speaker 2: taken over these games.

752
00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:39,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, and we watched what happened in the playoffs last

753
00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:43,240
Speaker 3: year where he wasn't getting the ball enough to shoot

754
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,880
Speaker 3: the ball. I mean he is. It could be the

755
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:48,279
Speaker 3: best scorer we've ever seen period and he wasn't getting

756
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:49,800
Speaker 3: the ball, and then we saw him in the Olympics.

757
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:51,879
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, this guy should be a number one guy

758
00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:55,520
Speaker 3: on your team. And with Booker it's flipped a little bit.

759
00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:58,440
Speaker 3: You know. Last year was Booker doing a lot more

760
00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:01,480
Speaker 3: and Booker still on they're one in one A. But

761
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:03,960
Speaker 3: Durant just is able to just take over in the

762
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:07,239
Speaker 3: fourth quarter period against a teeny tiny heat team that

763
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:10,359
Speaker 3: doesn't work for them. Absolutely not.

764
00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:15,560
Speaker 2: Any other notes or takeaways from last night's NBA action.

765
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:17,680
Speaker 2: There's a ton of other games to pick from if

766
00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:18,799
Speaker 2: you want to get anything in here.

767
00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:21,960
Speaker 3: I do want to talk about the Sacramento Kings briefly

768
00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:24,919
Speaker 3: because we all wondered where the defense would come from

769
00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:28,080
Speaker 3: with this team. Keega Murray is going to be R four.

770
00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:31,560
Speaker 3: Is it going to be enough size to grab boards?

771
00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:34,840
Speaker 3: And that guy has performed even at six'. Eight he

772
00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:37,759

832
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:55,480
Speaker 4: twenty eighth in. Defense and you GOT Jj redick benching

833
00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:59,200
Speaker 4: and calling Out D'Angelo. Russell deal only played twenty two

834
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:02,759
Speaker 4: minutes Last then, POSTGAME jj basically said nobody plays as

835
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:06,319
Speaker 4: hard As lebron and there was not enough attention to

836
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:11,279
Speaker 4: detail and effort level basically From DiAngelo. Russell and they

837
00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:14,560
Speaker 4: are nine games into the. Season eight games into the. Season,

838
00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:17,320
Speaker 4: yeah you like to hear see that from a coach

839
00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:21,040
Speaker 4: holding the team. Accountable but, man this is pretty early

840
00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:22,239
Speaker 4: to be calling a guy out like.

841
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:25,040
Speaker 2: That, Yeah and the way it went to it's, like,

842
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:27,960
Speaker 2: yeah he's being asked about the lack of effort and

843
00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:30,800
Speaker 2: whether he's going to address, it and THEN Jj reddick,

844
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:33,200
Speaker 2: GOES i just, did and then he sort of like

845
00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:36,480
Speaker 2: throws the, mic sort of gets, up storms, off and

846
00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:39,240
Speaker 2: then while he's, leaving the reporter, said he yelled first

847
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:42,480
Speaker 2: THING i said to, Them SO i wanted to make

848
00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:45,200
Speaker 2: sure everybody knew that, too that he addressed with this,

849
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:47,880
Speaker 2: team this lack of effort and this lack of attention

850
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:49,879
Speaker 2: to detail and why Is lebron the only one playing?

851
00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:53,440
Speaker 2: Hard No Anthony davis in this game because, HEEL i

852
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:55,400
Speaker 2: guess is what they're calling it. To, YEAH i think

853
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:58,680
Speaker 2: it's that yeah left heel, soreness so they're missing, him

854
00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:01,960
Speaker 2: but He's. Yeah this is a tough one because on one,

855
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:04,239
Speaker 2: hand you're, like, yeah we want a coach to like

856
00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:07,120
Speaker 2: keep guys, accountable like you, know try and like that,

857
00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:10,640
Speaker 2: spark but it's a long season, too like you can

858
00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:13,160
Speaker 2: you worry can you lose a locker room or lose

859
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:15,480
Speaker 2: guys or lose you, know whatever sort of? Confidence can

860
00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:18,400
Speaker 2: you go overboard with that. Stuff maybe not. Buddies he

861
00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:20,480
Speaker 2: doesn't seem to care because he's pissed because guess, what

862
00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:22,560
Speaker 2: he's a former player and he's not that far removed

863
00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:24,000
Speaker 2: from the, game and he's, LIKE i would have been trying.

864
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:26,000
Speaker 2: Harder the hell's wrong with?

865
00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:30,520
Speaker 3: You oh, Yeah and it's a it's an annual routine

866
00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:32,920
Speaker 3: that the, coach whoever it, is has to go through

867
00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:35,080
Speaker 3: and call Out Dangel. RUSS i mean it really. Is,

868
00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:38,719
Speaker 3: yeah it does. Happen and this is a tougher road.

869
00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:40,640
Speaker 3: Trip it is all on the road for The lakers,

870
00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:43,640
Speaker 3: here AND i Guess lebron doesn't like. Flying he said,

871
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:45,759
Speaker 3: preseason why do we got to fly To milwaukee for

872
00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:48,880
Speaker 3: a preseason? Game and this is just, yeah this is you,

873
00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:51,279
Speaker 3: know they lost to The suns The, calves then they

874
00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:53,319
Speaker 3: beat The, raps and then The pistons won That trey

875
00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:55,920
Speaker 3: mentioned that's that was a bad one, obviously and then

876
00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:59,800
Speaker 3: this one Against. Memphis memphis just likes playing The, lakers.

877
00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:03,840
Speaker 3: Man but, yeah so, yeah The Anthony davis thing is

878
00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:07,000
Speaker 3: the biggest thing THAT i think. Too to note so,

879
00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:10,360
Speaker 3: far this is his first game he's. Missed that's the

880
00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:12,480
Speaker 3: biggest loss for The. LAKERS i mean he is their. Defense.

881
00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:14,719
Speaker 2: Really John moran scored twenty in this game before he

882
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:16,560
Speaker 2: had to leave with a hamstring. INJURY i don't know

883
00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 2: the severity of, that but before he, left he did

884
00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:24,279
Speaker 2: get into a too small taunt off With lebron and

885
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:28,200
Speaker 2: The Lake, yes because, uh you, know cover your ears.

886
00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:31,800
Speaker 2: Task John moran scored Over Gabe vincent and then dropped

887
00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:35,120
Speaker 2: a real too small, really he held it to the

888
00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:38,799
Speaker 2: ground for a while And lebron took offense to, that

889
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:42,239
Speaker 2: and eventually he was too smalling against The grizzlies on

890
00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:45,400
Speaker 2: the other. End and then, yeah it was a tantof

891
00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:48,040
Speaker 2: and then when he got back to the other, end you,

892
00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:49,840
Speaker 2: Know John rant sort of threw a little bit of

893
00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:52,719
Speaker 2: a bow into the back Of. Lebron got teed up for.

894
00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:54,880
Speaker 2: IT i mean he, Did oh he.

895
00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:56,600
Speaker 3: Did and it was after the play And lebron was

896
00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:59,360
Speaker 3: turned from. Him, yeah and so, Yeah moran came after his.

897
00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:02,520
Speaker 3: Back brun didn't. Respond. Lebron, no he could have easily

898
00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:06,120
Speaker 3: thrown a big fist right It John rand's, face but

899
00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:09,800
Speaker 3: he did. Not he just walked. Away it was, weird.

900
00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:13,600
Speaker 2: Though it was hosty between these. Teams SO i hate these.

901
00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:16,319
Speaker 4: Guys, yeah that's, cool even Though Dylan brooks has gone

902
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:18,879

903
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:21,279
Speaker 4: When But Scotty Pippen junior had a huge steal On

904
00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:23,600

Speaker 2: Lose now three and five for The. Bulls we also

929
00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:32,960
Speaker 2: place play is right. There pacers beat The magic one

930
00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:35,160

931
00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:38,200

00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:41,560
Speaker 2: The magic now Without. Pollo it's, like you, know all

933
00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:43,880
Speaker 2: of our concerns about taking a guy that was basically

934
00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:46,480
Speaker 2: their entire, offense you, know flirting with thirty points a,

935
00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:48,480
Speaker 2: game setting up guys left and. Right take that. Out

936
00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:50,600
Speaker 2: gonna be a little bit more of a. Struggle so

937
00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:54,759
Speaker 2: The pacers got that. Win rockets killed killed The spurs really.

938
00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:56,440
Speaker 2: Nice you like to see that from a team that

939
00:43:56,480 --> 00:43:59,279
Speaker 2: you you, know hope maybe is a playoff. Team, legit

940
00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:00,920
Speaker 2: they got to beat the back teams crushed him on

941
00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:03,440
Speaker 2: twenty seven, one and what? ELSE i guess we did

942
00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:07,920
Speaker 2: have The clippers beating The sixers one ninety. EIGHT i

943
00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:09,719
Speaker 2: did not watch that one. Yet that'll be love to

944
00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:11,680
Speaker 2: catch the highlights here after this. Show BUT i don't

945
00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:12,279
Speaker 2: think that was a bad.

946
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:14,399
Speaker 3: One. Yeah, yeah you're not gonna get anything from.

947
00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:16,000
Speaker 4: That But Chris maxie got.

948
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:17,239
Speaker 2: Hurt oh, yeah that's.

949
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:20,080
Speaker 3: Bad, Yeah oh is it a significant there's.

950
00:44:19,880 --> 00:44:21,920
Speaker 4: A HAMSTRING i think as, well just Like John. Morant

951
00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:23,919
Speaker 4: so those are both ones that can linger a long.

952
00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:25,799
Speaker 4: Time and that's too bad because a it's awesome Having

953
00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:28,520
Speaker 4: John morant back and watching this guy too easy to

954
00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:30,920
Speaker 4: forget how electric he is as a. Player but he's

955
00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:34,600
Speaker 4: been amazing since coming. Back and Then maxi has had

956
00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:36,080
Speaker 4: a little bit too much on his PLATE i think

957
00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:39,640
Speaker 4: so far this season For. Philadelphia but they need him

958
00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:41,760
Speaker 4: to be healthy because we know and beat his missing.

959
00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:44,080
Speaker 4: Time though he's coming Back november, twelfth after the. Suspension

960
00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:46,680
Speaker 4: this is game ONE i guess of the. Suspension, Yeah Paul,

961
00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:49,960
Speaker 4: george he's going to miss. Time So maxie has to

962
00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:52,719
Speaker 4: be the their most reliable of the big, three and

963
00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:54,560
Speaker 4: if he's going to miss a chunk of, time it's

964
00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:56,200
Speaker 4: like It's Paul george going to carry this team to.

965
00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:58,320
Speaker 4: Wins he couldn't do it last night against The. Clippers

966
00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:00,239
Speaker 4: they were booing him like crazy and after as he,

967
00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:04,879
Speaker 4: said that's, stupid. Stupid they didn't want to pay him,

968
00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:06,560
Speaker 4: yeah you sort of have a.

969
00:45:07,600 --> 00:45:10,000

975
00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:20,440

976
00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:22,480
