1 00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:04,800 Speaker 1: Nana Daily Jr. First impression of each other as players, 2 00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:08,000 Speaker 1: or did you first meet off the court? I do 3 00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:11,200 Speaker 1: remember before I actually know him like I know him now. 4 00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:13,760 Speaker 1: I knew he was a hard nosed player. I knew 5 00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:16,480 Speaker 1: he was crazy as fuck, and for some type of reason, 6 00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:18,400 Speaker 1: when I got to go to State, I knew me 7 00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:20,520 Speaker 1: and he was gonna be the first ones to smoke together. 8 00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:24,280 Speaker 1: And I was right. I told this story before. When 9 00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:26,080 Speaker 1: you got traded to our team and I looked at 10 00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:34,239 Speaker 1: your lips, I knew you smoked. A welcome back to 11 00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:38,760 Speaker 1: what's burning? Jack? A lot of action at the deadline. 12 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:43,000 Speaker 1: Let's get right to it, man, LaMarcus aldrich bought out 13 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 1: from San Antonio. It's headed to Brooklyn. Aldriches is about 14 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:49,839 Speaker 1: thirteen and a half points a game, four and a 15 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:53,080 Speaker 1: half rebounds of game. Has really lost the step on 16 00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 1: both ends, um offensively and defensively. How do you think 17 00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 1: he'll fit into the nets of what would be his role? Well, um, 18 00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:04,440 Speaker 1: it's hard to say right now. You know, I think 19 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 1: with the situation in the San Antonio the way it did, 20 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:09,960 Speaker 1: you know him, it's only two things that can get 21 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:12,319 Speaker 1: you out of San Antonio. Not wanting in enough and 22 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 1: your attitude. I got kicked ou because I wanted it 23 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 1: too much, you know, I wanted it too much, but 24 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:20,040 Speaker 1: not wanting it up. And I think just just the 25 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 1: pressure of what is popped expected for him, expected from him, 26 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 1: he couldn't handle it. But in Brooklyn, I think hopefully 27 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 1: he can be that spot up guy, you know, that 28 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: that pick and roll guy that can that can spread 29 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:32,400 Speaker 1: and shoot the ball. Obviously don't need too much shooting 30 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 1: right now, so I really don't know how he's gonna 31 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 1: fit in Matt because they have all the scoring they need. 32 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:38,399 Speaker 1: And I thought Blake was that missing piece the way 33 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:40,520 Speaker 1: he's been coming on, you know, since he's been back. 34 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 1: But it's gonna be interesting to see, you know, somebody 35 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 1: has to fall out that lineup with signing autists, and 36 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 1: I hope, I hope it's not dj because DJT is 37 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 1: playing well. Yeah, I don't. Like I said, I think 38 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 1: everyone was super excited when you hear the names. Obviously 39 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,600 Speaker 1: Blake Griffin in his past and LaMarcus Aud with his past. 40 00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:59,919 Speaker 1: But the one thing that Nets don't lack of scoring, 41 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 1: you know, obviously with their big three, like I said, 42 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 1: that could be the best big three scoring trio we've 43 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 1: seen in the history of the game. So to kind 44 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 1: of find out where Blake and Aldrich fit is going 45 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 1: to be interesting because the one thing this team lacked 46 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 1: was not scoring, it was defense, and neither of these 47 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 1: guys are really a huge presence on the defensive end. Um, 48 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 1: I think to keep this team success, to be honest 49 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:22,840 Speaker 1: with you, it's gonna be DeAndre. He's gonna have to 50 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 1: be that blanket and protect a lot of people out 51 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 1: there on the court. But uh, you know, obviously stacking 52 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,079 Speaker 1: as many people as you can. For some reason, Katie 53 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,360 Speaker 1: has taking the heat for these new guys coming too 54 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: the team, which is crazy to me, but um, interesting 55 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 1: to see how they kind of make these pieces jail 56 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 1: moving forward and heading into the playoffs. Next up on 57 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,959 Speaker 1: the buy out market. Uh, someone who I think is 58 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: gonna be very impactful and was a great pick up 59 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 1: for the Los Angeles Lakers was Andre Drummond, someone who's 60 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 1: averaging about seventeen a half a game, thirteen and a 61 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 1: half rebounds, but really feels a void they've been missing. 62 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:59,079 Speaker 1: I think people underestimated how important Dwight Howard and JaVale 63 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 1: McGee were for the Lakers. Drummond fills that void and 64 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 1: he gives you a little bit more offense um than 65 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 1: those guys did. Thoughts on this pickup. I love it. 66 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 1: We talked. We spoke about him a couple of weeks ago, 67 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: and we both high on them. We just want him 68 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 1: to fall into his role and accept this role and 69 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 1: understand what player he is and how he can get 70 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 1: the both the most out of his out of his 71 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 1: skill and his game. I think with a D coming back, 72 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 1: they're gonna have to slow walk a D and having 73 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 1: him to be in there to do all the banging, 74 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,360 Speaker 1: doing all the rebounding, block shots where a D can 75 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: be more fin nest for the rest of the season. 76 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 1: I think that's gonna help him out a lot. And 77 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 1: that's the role a D wants to play. It's going 78 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 1: to kind of follow in that role when he when 79 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: he had Boogie on the side of him. Same type 80 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: of guy, but not as talented as Boogie. But it's 81 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: gonna be exciting to see. I think that's something that 82 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: the Lakers needed, you know, with everything they've been going 83 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 1: through with having Lebron down. I think it's gonna have 84 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 1: this team where they need to be at the end 85 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: of the season. Yeah. I mean, anyone averaging nearly eight 86 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: teen points and four teen rebounds a game and doesn't 87 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 1: really get his number called on the offensive end can 88 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: only help a team. Uh, you know you're gonna need 89 00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 1: the big body going against Joker, and depend on who 90 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 1: comes out the East, it could be possibly inbid and 91 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 1: I think Drummond definitely feels that whole um. You know 92 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 1: one thing that that struck me what was crazy was 93 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: you know, you're reading everything leading up to this happening, 94 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: and you remember, I think a few years ago, all 95 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 1: the talking heads on these sports shows, the same players 96 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: don't want to play with Lebron, and this, this and that, 97 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 1: and they found this old tweeted drum and wanted to 98 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 1: meet Lebron and play with Lebron, which pretty much puts 99 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 1: to rest, you know, bullshit that commentated were talking about 100 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 1: no one wants to play with Lebron. I mean, somehow 101 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:31,479 Speaker 1: they got a d Now they got drumming. Guys definitely 102 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:32,919 Speaker 1: want to play with Lebron. But I guess that was 103 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: a kind of narrative they were running with at the time. 104 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,720 Speaker 1: But you know, definitely excited for this pick up. I 105 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 1: definitely think Mark Gasol is still gonna pay dividends. I 106 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 1: just don't think he was what they thought he was 107 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 1: gonna be for this team. But I think his smarts 108 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 1: and his understanding of the game is definitely gonna pay 109 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 1: off in the playoffs. But they needed that big, athletic, 110 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 1: strong starting center to plug that boid in the middle. 111 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 1: So great pick up by the Lakers. Next up, Um, 112 00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,040 Speaker 1: you know one of our favorites actually man both to 113 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: Both these guys are our favorites. Rondo headed to the 114 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: Clippers for sweet Lou. Um. I think this is a 115 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,280 Speaker 1: void that was addressed. The Clippers knew they needed a 116 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: starting point guard. Um. Rondo is definitely in that. We 117 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 1: saw what he did with the Lakers last year in 118 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 1: the bubble and the role he played in his importance. 119 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 1: How big is this move for the Clippers and are 120 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: they going to regret trading Lou? It's kind of hard 121 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,920 Speaker 1: to say right now. I think they felt like they 122 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: had enough scoring. You know, this is the more scoring 123 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,280 Speaker 1: they ever had with Paul and uh and Kauai. I 124 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: think they kind of got that locked and they really 125 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: don't need that six man to be what Lou has 126 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: been in the past years. Um having Rondo. I think 127 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: it's more important, you know, to have that guy to 128 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 1: come in and police everybody, to keep everybody attack, somebody 129 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,600 Speaker 1: to run the team, and and being able to to 130 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,280 Speaker 1: this shout the ball to park kauaile win needed, you know, 131 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 1: without having him coming down taking so many ilevised shots. 132 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:54,479 Speaker 1: I think Rondo's gonna be able to put a cap 133 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,720 Speaker 1: on all that stuff. But lou being home was good 134 00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:58,599 Speaker 1: because I get to hang out with my little bro again. 135 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,480 Speaker 1: I'm glad. I'm glad he didn't retire because he has 136 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,839 Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of game left. I think 137 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 1: the game still needs Louke, but I know he can 138 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:08,720 Speaker 1: help some teams right now get to that championship and 139 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: I hope you get that opportunity again for you hanging up. Yeah, 140 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously picking up Rondo is huge. His health 141 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: is going to be obviously the most important thing. Can 142 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 1: he stay healthy and beyond the court, but if he's 143 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: able to, I think the Clips are sitting in a 144 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: good spot. You know, they've kind of been flying on 145 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 1: the radar. Last year. There was too much hype around them, 146 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 1: and I was on the hype bandwagon, you know, and 147 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 1: that's something that Clippers aren't used to you know, pretty 148 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 1: favorite to win the championship, the Clippers, but this year, 149 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 1: you know, with the new coach kind of getting their 150 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 1: rhythm now playing better of late and being able to 151 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 1: pick up you know, NBA champion in future Hall of 152 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 1: Famer and Region Rondo to help guide this ship. Uh 153 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:46,919 Speaker 1: can only help them. And like you said, Glad that 154 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: Luke stuck it out. This is something that's not talked about, 155 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:53,279 Speaker 1: but just this the mental aspect of being traded. You know, 156 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: we're supposed to be pros. It's the business, but that 157 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 1: ship is tough, man, especially from when you give your 158 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 1: heart and soul to its team and then all of 159 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 1: a sudden one day you're gone. So definitely shout out 160 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 1: to lou Glad he's sticking it out, getting to go 161 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 1: back to the crib and play with all his friends 162 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 1: and family out there, so, you know, seeing what he 163 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 1: can do for Atlanta, because Atlanta's got hot to the 164 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 1: right in the middle of the Eastern Conference, so uh, 165 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: you know, good move both ways for both teams. Next up, 166 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 1: Norman Pale to the Blazers for Rodney Hood and Gary 167 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 1: Trent Jr. Uh. Norman Pale obviously Brewings shout out Bruins. 168 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 1: Um has really been under the radar, but could be 169 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: up for most Improved Player of the Year. He's at 170 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 1: nearly nineteen and a half points a game, shooting from 171 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: the field and almost from the three point line. Uh 172 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 1: dropped twenty two and his Blazer debut. Uh thoughts on 173 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 1: this trade and what his role will be with a 174 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,119 Speaker 1: healthy c J and healthy Dame and I think Nurkic 175 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 1: just coming back as well. Yeah, they're all coming back, man. 176 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: I like normal pal. He's one of my favorite guys 177 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 1: to watch, you know, because he played with a lot 178 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: of energy, come up the bench, ready to go. Um. 179 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 1: He kind of he kind of reminds me a bigger 180 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 1: and more athletic Lou Williams because when he come in 181 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 1: the game, he's really aggressive and Uh, you can tell 182 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 1: the way he played with Portland in his first game. 183 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 1: You know what, with having Dame out, he went out 184 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:10,640 Speaker 1: there and played. We'll have twenty some points, so no 185 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 1: one's gonna be He's gonna be great for him. He's 186 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 1: gonna be that score. Uh to come off the bitch 187 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 1: with experience, you know, he has. He has a lot 188 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 1: of experience. I'm playing with Toronto the last couple of years. 189 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 1: So it's gonna be it's it's a good it's a 190 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: good move for Portland, and it's gonna help him in 191 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: the playoffs. Yeah, I definitely think he's funding his footing. 192 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: Not only is he at almost twenty points a game, 193 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 1: but he plays defense and like you said, he plays 194 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 1: hard too. So I mean, I think that's gonna be 195 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 1: a nice three headed guard monster um coming down the 196 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: stretch with this team getting healthy. This team is always 197 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 1: injury riddled, but if they can get healthy and put 198 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 1: a run together, you know, to me that the Lakers 199 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 1: are the favorite, but the West is still pretty open. 200 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:48,679 Speaker 1: You know, there's a lot of talented teams out there 201 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 1: in the West. Next up, Aaron Gordon to the Nuggets 202 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 1: for Gary Hair, Gary Harris Jr. And R. J. Hampton. Um. 203 00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,679 Speaker 1: I think this is a great pickup for Denver. Obviously 204 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 1: are being you know fresh, you know, fresh out. Still 205 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 1: you have to kind of see what he can do. 206 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 1: Gary Harris did his thing, but I think Aaron Gordon 207 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 1: stepping in is going to replace what Jeremy Grant brought. 208 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,840 Speaker 1: Another big, strong wing defender, guy that plays both ways. 209 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: Someone they could possibly guard Lebron in the playoffs. Um 210 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,439 Speaker 1: Gordon's at about fifteen or fourteen and a half points 211 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: and six and a half rebounds. Thoughts on this move 212 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 1: and his role on this team. Man Denver did it 213 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 1: with this one Garden. Garden is a star. I think 214 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 1: to have that three four swing man that can shoot, defend, 215 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 1: very athletic, great finish at the room, I think that's 216 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 1: what they needed. You know, Um, with the two pieces 217 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 1: they have already, this compliments them so well, and this 218 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 1: is gonna be to give them the push that they need, 219 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: Like you said, have been able to guard Lebron and 220 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 1: coming down this playoffs stretch to have another start to 221 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 1: have a three headed monster. You see a lot of 222 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 1: teams coming with three stars. This is their big three now, 223 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,200 Speaker 1: and Uh, I think they have a talented big three. 224 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 1: You know, we talked, we talked, We spoke about the 225 00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: younger guys. They have to compliment them with that too, 226 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,079 Speaker 1: but the big three that they have now gives them 227 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 1: a legitimate chance of fighting to come out to West. Yeah. 228 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,440 Speaker 1: I mean I think Joker, uh in most reports is 229 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 1: is the head candidate for m v P. Right here. 230 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: You give it. You have two high Flyers on your 231 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 1: Wings now with Michael Porter Jr. And Aaron Gordon. That 232 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 1: front line of Joker, Millsap, Gordon and Porter Jr. I 233 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 1: love that front line. So excited to see what this 234 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 1: turns into. I got a quick story. I remember I 235 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 1: used to play in the pro ams in the in 236 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 1: the Bay Area and they gave in the San Francisco 237 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 1: programs where I had to slap a coach one time 238 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 1: and got in a fight with some dude. But that's 239 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: another day. Um. I remember playing they get that they 240 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 1: put Aaron Gordon on my team. This kid was like 241 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 1: fourteen years old. And when I tell you, bro, I 242 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,679 Speaker 1: was throwing this kid lobbed from like half court when 243 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 1: he was like just going into ninth grade. So I've 244 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: seen his development um over the years and really happy 245 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 1: that he's you know, he was able to get out 246 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 1: of the situation he was in and started. You still 247 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 1: laughing at me slapping the coach and fighting the player. 248 00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:00,200 Speaker 1: But that was that was just to set my story up. 249 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 1: But shout out to my little homie, Aaron Gordon Man 250 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 1: and good luck in Denver. In the week ahead, we 251 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 1: got a double header on Friday nights, starting off with 252 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: the Mavericks and the Knicks. Um, Dallas is kind of 253 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: struggled to get everybody healthy at the same time and 254 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,080 Speaker 1: be on the floor. But when they do that, they're 255 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 1: a tough team. But they've yet to really consistently be 256 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 1: able to do that throughout the season. H Lucas being Luca, 257 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 1: but this team is, you know, in in a spot 258 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 1: right now. Um, but only you know, four games out 259 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,640 Speaker 1: of five, so it looks like unless they get hot, 260 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 1: they'll be in a playing scenario which could be dangerous 261 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 1: for whoever they have to play, but also could be 262 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: dangerous for them. UM. Thoughts on just kind of Dallas 263 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:42,079 Speaker 1: overall and still trying to find their rhythm heading into 264 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 1: the playoffs. I like Luca, man, it's just been so 265 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 1: up and down, you know, even with the injuries, you know, 266 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: even we having guys on the court, they've still been 267 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:50,839 Speaker 1: up and down. You know. I still don't think that 268 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 1: I still don't think this team has an identity. This 269 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 1: team has a Luca and that and that's really that's 270 00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 1: all they have, you know what I mean. And and nobody, 271 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 1: nobody has really shown. You know, when we talk about 272 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,079 Speaker 1: the Mavericks, all we talk about is Luca. We don't 273 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:06,199 Speaker 1: talk about nothing else. No other highlights, no other stars, 274 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,400 Speaker 1: no other guys. That's that's making noise in the legal 275 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,680 Speaker 1: making a name for themselves. We're not talking about any 276 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,079 Speaker 1: of that with Data, So you know, I just think 277 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 1: it's the Luca Show and Lucas gonna entertain, but we 278 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 1: won't see anything from datas. Yeah. I mean, if if 279 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 1: port Zingis can stay healthy, he's supposed to be the 280 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 1: bad you know, the Robin to to Lucas Batman. But 281 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,439 Speaker 1: it's kind of yet to really find that chemistry and 282 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 1: rhythm on the flip side. Uh. New York in tips 283 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 1: first year, hanging their hat on defense, uh and being 284 00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:37,200 Speaker 1: able to make some noise in the Eastern Conference. Obviously, 285 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:40,319 Speaker 1: losing Mitchell Robinson with the fractured foot is going to 286 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 1: be a huge loss for this team. But this team 287 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:44,680 Speaker 1: is playing hard, playing well. Shout out Julius Randall, first 288 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 1: time All Star and having a career year over there. Yeah. Look, 289 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 1: I'm happy for them, you know, even with having a 290 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,559 Speaker 1: dickhead owner, I think for the most part, they have 291 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 1: a young team. Uh. That's I hope, with a whole 292 00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 1: bunch of young players that's hungry with a coach with 293 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 1: me and you respect a coach that gets the most 294 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 1: out of his players, a coach that that that comes 295 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 1: to win, it comes to play hard, and it earns 296 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 1: his money. That's what I like about theves coach Tills. 297 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 1: But he got a group of young kids that want 298 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 1: to play, that's trying to make a name for themselves 299 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: in the league. Uh and then shown by that passion 300 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:18,439 Speaker 1: that they're having success because they're playing with a lot 301 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 1: of passion out there. Yeah, I mean, I love to 302 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 1: pick up Derrick Rose, r J. Barrett has been playing well. 303 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 1: As we mentioned, Julius Randall, first time All Star. Just 304 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,720 Speaker 1: excited for that fan base to kind of get a 305 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 1: taste of winning, and it's been a long time since 306 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:32,840 Speaker 1: they've been able to do that. And it will be 307 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 1: amazing if if somehow, some way they get to play 308 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:37,960 Speaker 1: Brooklyn in the playoffs for you know, a low key 309 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:39,719 Speaker 1: battle of New York. We know who's gonna win that, 310 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 1: but it will still be fun to watch. Who you 311 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 1: got And this Fridays, this Friday's matchup, I'm gonna go 312 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 1: with I'll never go against Luca, even though it's always 313 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 1: one against five. Um Luca has done some amazing stuff 314 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 1: in his career, and he's continued to be amazing. So 315 00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 1: you know, I'm going with the Luca. The Luca Mavericks. 316 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 1: Luca in the Garden is gonna be fun. We'll have 317 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 1: to see what happens next. Up a very interesting battle, 318 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 1: um between the Bucks and the Blazers. Milwaukee has been 319 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 1: on a low key run, uh thirteen and two over 320 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,600 Speaker 1: their last fifteen games. Janice is at twenty nine and 321 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 1: twelve and seven and a half. Um kind of slowly 322 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 1: staying in that uh that m v P race thoughts 323 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: on what the Bucks have been doing of late? Man, 324 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 1: Is it possible, Matt, that Janice has been watching this 325 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 1: show and he's been hearing all the chatter. We don't 326 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 1: want to see We don't want to see this regular season, 327 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 1: you honest. We want to see playoffs, your honest. And 328 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 1: I think he's I think he's hearing that, and I 329 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 1: think he's starting to separate himself and get prepared for 330 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 1: the playoffs. Um. They're playing well, man, and you Howiday 331 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 1: is giving his team another star. Um, just like you 332 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 1: said that, they're on a role right now winning all 333 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 1: these games. I think it's it's gonna be good for 334 00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 1: them the way they're starting to play, and like said, 335 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 1: they're gonna give us somebod a lot of trouble. You know, 336 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 1: they got a good chance to come out to the East, 337 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 1: you know, with the way they play. But I don't 338 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 1: see it happening. But he is definitely getting himself ready 339 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 1: to come in the playoffs and and and and play 340 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 1: v m v P style of ball, you know, in 341 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 1: the playoffs what we've been asking them to do. Uh, 342 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:17,840 Speaker 1: he's definitely on a mission. And definitely, whether it's our 343 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 1: show or whoever else, he's hearing it from everywhere, so 344 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: you know, he hears it. And and that's his next 345 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 1: step in his development is being able to transition his 346 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 1: regular season production into the playoffs. And he if he's 347 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 1: able to do that, that makes them a you know, 348 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 1: definitely a contender. But I think what it's also taking 349 00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 1: a little pressure off them is, you know, they're not 350 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 1: at the top of the East anymore, so people aren't 351 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:40,120 Speaker 1: constantly talking and some teams don't do well when they're 352 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 1: constantly It takes a lot to be at the top 353 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 1: and being talked about all the time being able to 354 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 1: handle that pressure. Not every team can do that. Not 355 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 1: every player could do that, you know, So with them 356 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,480 Speaker 1: sliding under radar, similar to the Clippers in the West, 357 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 1: kind of sliding under radar and kind of stacking their 358 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 1: cards moving forward, They're definitely gonna be a tough out 359 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:58,640 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. And and similar to Portland's uh, you know, 360 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 1: nine and four since the beginning of March, number one 361 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:03,640 Speaker 1: offensive the league since that time, being able to add 362 00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 1: someone like Norman Pals twenty points a game. Nurkics is 363 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 1: coming back, and as we touched on earlier, you know, 364 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 1: this is a team that's been troubled by injuries, so 365 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 1: to get everybody healthy at the right time. Both these 366 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 1: teams are gonna be tough outs in the playoffs. And 367 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 1: don't be surprised if both these teams make a Conference 368 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 1: tile run. Who you got in this one? I think 369 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the Blazers, man. I think that 370 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 1: you know, they got more to play for. You know, 371 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 1: we havd everybody coming back, you know, um and add 372 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:33,400 Speaker 1: Norman Pile. They're trying to find their identity so they 373 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 1: can be on the same page going into the postseason. 374 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 1: So I think Portland's gonna gonna need more out of 375 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 1: this game, and I think they're gonna put it off. 376 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:42,560 Speaker 1: Ye have fun game, like you said, Excited to see 377 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 1: Portland's starting to get healthy at the right time, picking 378 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 1: up that chemistry heading into the playoffs. Next up on 379 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 1: the radar presented by Draft Kings. Uh, a nice match 380 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 1: up Thursday night between the Nuggets and Clippers. Um, you 381 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 1: know with the Lakers injuries uncertainty. Uh, we have the 382 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 1: Clippers at a plus two funny to win the West 383 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 1: and the Nuggets had a little longer shot of plus 384 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:07,640 Speaker 1: nine hundred. Jack, Are both these teams being undervalued? Uh? 385 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:12,880 Speaker 1: Considering the pickups they made, plus you also have Utah 386 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 1: and Phoenix at the top. These either these teams have 387 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 1: a chance to win the West. I think they do. Man, 388 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:20,160 Speaker 1: Like you said, with the pieces, With the pieces they made, 389 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,880 Speaker 1: they got the chance to exhale their ways their way 390 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 1: to the top. Both teams got pieces that they need 391 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,879 Speaker 1: that's gonna come in and start right away, gonna come 392 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 1: in to make a immediate impact and and they can 393 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:33,960 Speaker 1: make a push to win the West. So you know, 394 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:35,679 Speaker 1: with these teams having the stars they have, I think 395 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 1: they're definitely undervalue. Yeah, Clippers won the first matchup of 396 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 1: the season on Christmas Day. But this is gonna be big, obviously, 397 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:47,480 Speaker 1: and Aaron Gordon's signing is someone you're gonna look to 398 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:51,200 Speaker 1: on the defensive end versus Kawai and pg Um also 399 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 1: gonna give you points. Uh. The Clippers adding Rondo, Uh, 400 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 1: you know, for him to be able to come back 401 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 1: to l A, but this time be with the Clippers. Um. 402 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 1: I know that their fan bases. I did their team. 403 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 1: It's excited to have them. So you know, look, it's 404 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,360 Speaker 1: gonna be exciting to see you know, both these pieces, 405 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:07,679 Speaker 1: new pieces with their new teams and what they can 406 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 1: bring to these teams and help them moving forward. Next 407 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 1: up one of our favorite segments, fan questions, Let's get 408 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 1: to it. Nana Daily Jr. First impression of each other 409 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:24,800 Speaker 1: as players? Or did you first meet off the court? Man? 410 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 1: I'd be forty three in a week. I don't remember 411 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 1: when I met this morning man. Uh. But what I 412 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 1: can't tell, what I can't tell you was my first 413 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:38,280 Speaker 1: I can't just say this. I do remember before I 414 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 1: actually know him like I know him now. I knew 415 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,040 Speaker 1: he was a hard nosed player. I knew it was 416 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 1: crazy as fuck and for some type of reason, when 417 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 1: I got to go to State, I knew me and 418 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 1: he was gonna be the first ones to smoke together. 419 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 1: And I was right her, absolutely, I told I told this, 420 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:56,720 Speaker 1: I told this story before when you got traded to 421 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 1: our team and I looked at your lips, I knew 422 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:06,399 Speaker 1: you smoked and cool we're going But similar, you know, 423 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 1: obviously knowing Jack. You know, Jack came in the league 424 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:12,159 Speaker 1: and did this thing from since day one. Um, you know, 425 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 1: so it was just excited for us to kind of 426 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 1: be teammates because I knew we would get along. So 427 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:18,639 Speaker 1: that my first real impression of him is obviously, you know, 428 00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:22,399 Speaker 1: becoming teammates and then becoming brothers after that. But you know, 429 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 1: our our our bond was instant, like I said, because 430 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:28,479 Speaker 1: I knew you would smoked. I was a smoker, and 431 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 1: we bonded on our plan. Simple. Isn't that beautiful? Beautiful thing? 432 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 1: Next fan question, I Vokatino Elevin is dirt nw whiskey 433 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 1: top three best Ruppan player that ever playing the NBA 434 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 1: and is he hall of Fame? Um? Absolutely? First about 435 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:49,639 Speaker 1: hall of Famer um? To me, I think he is 436 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:51,920 Speaker 1: the number one European player of all time. To play 437 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,640 Speaker 1: in the NBA. Obviously, rest in peace, Draws and Petrovitch. 438 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 1: We didn't get a chance to see his full career unfold, 439 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 1: but he was a fucking monster too. But I think, yeah, 440 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,760 Speaker 1: Dirk to me, unless I'm missing anybody, you know, we 441 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 1: got Sabonus a little later, um out of his prime, 442 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 1: but to me, as far as full body of work 443 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 1: and when he was able to accomplish winning a championship, 444 00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 1: winning m VP, the legacy he left behind, I definitely 445 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:18,439 Speaker 1: think Dirk is the best European player we've ever seen. Uh, 446 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:20,720 Speaker 1: he's a first thought hall of famer, but someone who 447 00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 1: could be knocking on that door. It plays in Dallas 448 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 1: right now in Lucas, will be interesting to see how 449 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 1: Luca's career plays out. Of course he's a Hall of famer. 450 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:33,200 Speaker 1: Of course he's the best European player thirty plus thirty 451 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:36,439 Speaker 1: thousand plus points scored, It's not even close. He's the best. Bro. 452 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 1: We had a chance to battle with him, and we 453 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:40,679 Speaker 1: had all this stuff, But I have his jersey right 454 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 1: there on my wall. Uh, definitely the best by far, 455 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:47,120 Speaker 1: and definitely a Hall of fame. At underscore tyring, who 456 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:50,879 Speaker 1: is the most underrated defender in the league. That's a 457 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:55,440 Speaker 1: good question. Oh man, I would have to say for me, 458 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:59,639 Speaker 1: and I'm just going off this season James Harden, James 459 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 1: Harders is the underrated defendant. If you look at the 460 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 1: games he's played and the way he's been playing this year, 461 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 1: They've been having him on the Star Play a lot, 462 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 1: and he ain't just been getting scored on from the 463 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,359 Speaker 1: post to the wing. I think his his defense this 464 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:13,119 Speaker 1: year has definitely been underrated. And and the knock on 465 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 1: him not playing deepens and not compete And we can't 466 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 1: say that the more because I've definitely been uh surprise 467 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:19,840 Speaker 1: that the way he's been competing on the deepens and 468 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,439 Speaker 1: n I just love the way he's played period on 469 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:24,640 Speaker 1: both ends. That's a great call. And I'm gonna stay 470 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:26,880 Speaker 1: with someone on his team because i think he's so 471 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:30,719 Speaker 1: great offensively sometimes that his defense gets overlooked. As Kevin Durant, 472 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:32,920 Speaker 1: Kevin Durant plays D and he makes an effort to 473 00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:36,200 Speaker 1: play D. He guards people, he blocks shots, he rebounds, 474 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 1: he he contests, dunks, um everything you don't necessarily see 475 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:43,880 Speaker 1: a Superstar score do um. So I mean, I think 476 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 1: I think that's a great point James is definitely because 477 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 1: too me, defense is just effort and James has been 478 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 1: hearing and I think he wanted to come to Brooklyn 479 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 1: with with the clean slate and he's definitely been giving 480 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 1: it to that team on both ends. And you know, 481 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:57,120 Speaker 1: similar to k D. You know, hopefully he'll be back soon. Um, 482 00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:59,399 Speaker 1: KD is someone who could definitely guard it and puts 483 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 1: that effort in night out, night out to guard. Next question, 484 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 1: glib underscore s underscore k are y'all bigger fans of 485 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:09,359 Speaker 1: teams that build super teams? Are they trying to build 486 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:13,919 Speaker 1: dynamic duo's last trios? It's a good question. Um, it 487 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 1: just kind of is what it is. It It's what 488 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 1: the game is now, so some people want to be 489 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 1: complain about it. Um, you know, building the best team 490 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 1: possible with players helping recruit players is where we're at 491 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:26,360 Speaker 1: in the NBA. Like I said, you hear a lot 492 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:29,640 Speaker 1: of people talking bad about what's going on in Brooklyn 493 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,440 Speaker 1: and what happened in Miami and what happened with Golden State. 494 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:35,359 Speaker 1: But that's just where we're at right now. UM. I'm 495 00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:38,199 Speaker 1: just a fan of good basketball, you know, so you know, 496 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:41,600 Speaker 1: seeing those teams put themselves together being able to develop 497 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: chemistry and go out there and smash the rest of 498 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 1: the league. So, you know, Brooklyn has been able to 499 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 1: gather a lot of talent. The Lakers have been able 500 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 1: to do that. And it looks like these teams are 501 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,720 Speaker 1: gonna be on the crash course if both stay healthy 502 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 1: to meet up in the final. So we're gonna see, uh, 503 00:22:56,600 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 1: you know how a trio is gonna do versus duo? Yeah? 504 00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,720 Speaker 1: What what they don't tell you that? It's a ward 505 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:07,720 Speaker 1: called the general manager or not general manager, but the 506 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 1: Executive of the Year ward in the NBA, and it 507 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,320 Speaker 1: goes to general manager and presidents. This this is the 508 00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 1: this is the reason why these teams have these guys 509 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:17,480 Speaker 1: to put these teams together in order to win championships 510 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:19,960 Speaker 1: and to be super teams are to be dominant to 511 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:22,800 Speaker 1: duos and trios. So you gotta give credit to those 512 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: guys that the general managers and the presidents of the team. 513 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:27,480 Speaker 1: This when they come into play, and you gotta give 514 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 1: credit to them when things like this happened. You know, 515 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:31,920 Speaker 1: when you get a team like Golden State, that's a dynasty. 516 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 1: When you get a team like like like the Heat 517 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 1: with the Big Three they had. You gotta give credit 518 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:38,679 Speaker 1: to the g ms and the presidents and uh, you 519 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 1: know that that's the guys that make these things happen. Yeah, 520 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 1: Like I said, it's just the kind of game we're 521 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:46,439 Speaker 1: in now. So hated to love it, Sit back and 522 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:52,359 Speaker 1: enjoy it. Last one at bleven five seven. What do 523 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 1: you think is the most underrated interview? You guys have 524 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 1: done one that you thought was special but didn't get 525 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:01,639 Speaker 1: as much hype or attention some of the others. Good questions. 526 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 1: That's easy for me. Uh, the Shaun King episode. Uh 527 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 1: that that that that episode was shadow band that was blocked. 528 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 1: H it really was. What wasn't um seen as much 529 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:18,399 Speaker 1: as it should you know, Um, a lot of people 530 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:21,399 Speaker 1: on the outside didn't like with what was said and 531 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,880 Speaker 1: I don't I don't think as much as our episodes 532 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:26,359 Speaker 1: will be all over the place. This for some reason, 533 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: you know, this episode didn't get as much as much 534 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:32,000 Speaker 1: press on the outside world. So, UM, that episode was 535 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 1: definitely educational for me. And um we tried to help 536 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 1: somebody that was on death road, that was facing uh death, 537 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 1: and um, a lot of good things came from the episode. Man, 538 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 1: But Shaun King is somebody that that I know who's 539 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:49,040 Speaker 1: fighting for equality for everyone, for all races, and somebody 540 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,119 Speaker 1: I stand with. Man, there's not many people that I 541 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 1: know genuinely in their heart, Bro Matt, that they that 542 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:57,080 Speaker 1: they standing up for everybody at all racist without any 543 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:00,200 Speaker 1: ill will in their heart. And Shaun King is that guy. No, 544 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 1: definitely shout out Shaun King. Great dude, And you know 545 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 1: you're doing great work when so many people are trying 546 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:07,119 Speaker 1: to destroy you. You know, you know I talked to 547 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 1: Sean every once so while I know you talked to 548 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 1: Sean still and it's just the work he's putting in 549 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 1: it obviously goes seen in Unseen. This is his man 550 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 1: who has dedicated his life UM to help others. And 551 00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:20,440 Speaker 1: I was definitely disappointed, um when YouTube red flag that episode, 552 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 1: because I thought there was so much great information and 553 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:28,400 Speaker 1: jewels dropped in that episode, UM about him his journey 554 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:31,280 Speaker 1: and his thought process on trying to help others. UM. 555 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:35,000 Speaker 1: Outside of that episode, I would say, Jim Gray, Jim 556 00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 1: Gray Rising episode to me Dope episode. I learned a 557 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,760 Speaker 1: lot from him and really kind of understanding his journey 558 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:46,359 Speaker 1: UM in this space, UM and all the great things 559 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 1: he's accomplished, and and and interviews he's done and kind of, 560 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 1: you know, paving the way for for people like us. 561 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:55,160 Speaker 1: So those are definitely the top two.

I love this move. He's an 689 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:18,240 Speaker 1: all star. UM. I definitely think Chicago is gonna have 690 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 1: to pick someone up this summer, uh to really kind 691 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 1: of contend in the East. But this is definitely a 692 00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 1: good start. Next up our brother sweet Lemon Pepper Lou. Uh. 693 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 1: We touched on it earlier in The show Man, you know, 694 00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:34,440 Speaker 1: contemplating retirement. You know this this game is so mental. Uh, 695 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 1: people to understand how mental this game is. And obviously 696 00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:40,120 Speaker 1: it war on him, um being traded from somewhere he 697 00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:42,560 Speaker 1: loved to be in l a Uh. Fortunately got to 698 00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:45,400 Speaker 1: go back home though. Uh thoughts on this trade obviously 699 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:49,840 Speaker 1: and and lose mental approach moving forward. I'm biased, you know, 700 00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:51,800 Speaker 1: having my little bro home, I get to hang out 701 00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:53,800 Speaker 1: with him, get dinner with him, you know. But on 702 00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:55,959 Speaker 1: the flip side of it, you know, he wants to 703 00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 1: continue to be impositions to win championships, you know, especially 704 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:01,440 Speaker 1: where it is and it's career. But one thing about it, 705 00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:03,680 Speaker 1: he loves to play the game, you know. And as 706 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:06,040 Speaker 1: the arena start to fill up, we'll start to see 707 00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 1: that old Lou because Lou liked to perform and he 708 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 1: liked to put on the show and with other players 709 00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:13,240 Speaker 1: to put on the show. Then hometown Atlanta, so uh, 710 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:16,320 Speaker 1: he'll love playing here and hopefully I'll get his love back. Yeah, 711 00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I've been a fan of Little you know. 712 00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,719 Speaker 1: I played with Lou his rookie year um over in Philly, 713 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 1: UM and just got to see him grow over the 714 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:24,640 Speaker 1: years until one of the greatest six men we've ever 715 00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 1: seen in this game. Man, so definitely excited he decided 716 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,760 Speaker 1: to keep pushing forward. I'm sure his energy and spirits 717 00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:32,960 Speaker 1: will get get on the right path and he'll definitely 718 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,400 Speaker 1: be able to contribute to the Hawks. Last, but not least, 719 00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:39,480 Speaker 1: Mitchell Robinson uh goes down with an unfortunate foot fracture, 720 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:42,400 Speaker 1: most likely gone for the season. What did this do 721 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 1: to the Knicks playoff hopes? Well, you know they needed 722 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,479 Speaker 1: everything they you know, they could use right now, you know, 723 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 1: with with the way they're playing, that they're starting to 724 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:53,920 Speaker 1: get a good feel about the team. And having one 725 00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:56,480 Speaker 1: of this the best players go down. Uh, it's putting. 726 00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 1: It's putting them, putting them back a step again. But 727 00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 1: you you always know how it goes. Mat somebody else 728 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:03,240 Speaker 1: get an opportunity to step up over somebody can fill 729 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 1: his role. Round us playing well, ROUNDA has to continue 730 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:09,239 Speaker 1: to lead and open somebody else steps up. Yeah. I mean, 731 00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:12,799 Speaker 1: obviously a big loss. His kids, very underrated on both ends. 732 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:15,319 Speaker 1: He just does his job, so you know, obviously hope 733 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:17,879 Speaker 1: he gets better soon. Um that, like you said, next 734 00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:20,480 Speaker 1: man up mentality is what this NBA is built on. 735 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:22,760 Speaker 1: So you know, best to luck to this team moving forward. 736 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:24,560 Speaker 1: Um And like I said, I'm just excited to see 737 00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:26,480 Speaker 1: where they're at right now at this point of the season, 738 00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:29,240 Speaker 1: and I hope they can continue to keep this moving 739 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:31,840 Speaker 1: and on into the playoffs.
