Speaker 1: as a seventy six er thing, you've.
Speaker 5: Been pulled back in. I mean, look, you guys got PG,
Speaker 5: We got PG. You know, personally, goal toward that that
Speaker 5: uh Western that Eastern Conference Finals exit.
Speaker 1: One of these days, that is the dream an Eastern
Speaker 1: Conference finals egg.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what we've been working for. That's what we've
Speaker 1: been when we get in when when the seventy six
Speaker 1: ers get in the huddle before the game, can we
Speaker 1: if this, if we just work together as a team,
Speaker 1: you guys, this year, we are going to be able
Speaker 1: to lose in five in the Eastern Conference Finals.
Speaker 5: One of those players, it's PG, one of those players
Speaker 5: who we think won't ever win one, won't ever win
Speaker 5: one because like so yeah, because when we just joined the.
Speaker 1: Best team in the NBA. I don't know if you
Speaker 1: heard the first part where I was talking about the finals,
Speaker 1: the championship fate No go ahead.
Speaker 5: Okay, no that you're right, You're right, he's gonna win.
Speaker 4: The seventy six ers, uh.
Speaker 5: I mean you know, listen, they the seventy sixers every
Speaker 5: year are have the potential on paper, so you know
Speaker 5: they can put it together.
Speaker 4: Then you know who's coach right right now? Doc? Right? No,
Speaker 4: Nick nurse, our Nick nurse. We're doc at oh Milwaukee.
Speaker 1: All right's got.
Speaker 4: A better chance now that doc is not in Philly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think nurse Like, I feel good. I feel
Speaker 1: like they have the proper pieces to put it together
Speaker 1: barring injury, which is which makes me think the injury
Speaker 1: this is the injury ravaged season.
Speaker 2: Probably.
Speaker 4: Yeah, man, you in much better place than I am.
Speaker 5: I am and you know, so excited to root for
Speaker 5: my Chicago Bulls who should barely get sixteen wins this year,
Speaker 5: probably as our entire team gets decimated, which, yeah, let's
Speaker 5: blow it up and tank.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that feels like where we're at. It feels like
Speaker 1: they they're like, we're three steps ahead of you, Bud,
Speaker 1: we are in it. But yeah, I should mention, you know,
Speaker 1: in addition to be an actor, comedian, podcasting stordinaire, host
Speaker 1: of comedian Feud, hosts for Dropout TV and from Grand Crew,
Speaker 1: and also a Chicago Bulls.
Speaker 4: Fan, which is the most important thing because most of
Speaker 4: that I am.
Speaker 2: So I got to ask, is is this, like you
Speaker 2: know SAG for Flag? Is Cooper Flagg the desire target there?
Speaker 4: You mean for Bulls.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, sure, I guess though.
Speaker 4: I mean at this point, I don't.
Speaker 5: Really have faith in the Bulls organization to do anything
Speaker 5: to develop any player or build around any player or
Speaker 5: anything like that. And you know, the last time we
Speaker 5: were competing was the d Rose era and.
Speaker 4: Like we had it's all.
Speaker 5: It's funny, Like the Bulls organization post Jordan has always
Speaker 5: been like you'll have all the pieces and everybody will
Speaker 5: seem right except one little aspect that one or two
Speaker 5: people do wrong and like and we won't go.
Speaker 4: Away from it or debate from it.
Speaker 5: So it was like Tips just running his players into
Speaker 5: the ground, like when you know, during.
Speaker 4: The d Rose era, So like at this point, like
Speaker 4: it would be dope.
Speaker 5: But my best hope is to see what happened to
Speaker 5: like the black Hawks all those years, happened to the Bulls,
Speaker 5: and then like then maybe we'll actually progress and turn
Speaker 5: the corner. Something good will happen to our organization because
Speaker 5: until then I don't have faith in our organization anymore.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the best name I've heard for sag for flag
Speaker 1: was from friend of the show Carl Tart's podcast The
Speaker 1: Flagrant Ones, where I forget who it's friend one of
Speaker 1: the friends. One of their friends came up with white
Speaker 1: flag for white flag.
Speaker 4: Uh, the white flag or white flag.
Speaker 2: Pretty well, that's funny.
Speaker 1: Did you guys talk about his performance against Team USA.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Miles was going off about it in particular because
Speaker 2: he you know, dotted ads I and in that, you know,
Speaker 2: in that one clip.
Speaker 1: But yeah, will allow it, will allow him them on
Speaker 1: the Lakers.
Speaker 2: No, okay with that? Yeah, okay, But honestly, much like Jaquez,
Speaker 2: I'm not I don't have all the confidence in the
Speaker 2: world that we do that, right, So you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So this is the best time of the year
Speaker 1: for everybody except Celtics fans, because it is the time
Speaker 1: of year where we can be unrealistic and hope springs
Speaker 1: eternal and we can just tune into the Summer League
Speaker 1: to just have visions of sugar plums dancing in our
Speaker 1: head about our off season acquisitions.
Speaker 2: Summer.
Speaker 1: The Summer League has some care. I mean, it's not
Speaker 1: it's not Wemby this year, but the winners and losers
Speaker 1: aren't important. It's just fun seeing these draftees in their
Speaker 1: first action. Zach Eadie is my first person who who
Speaker 1: I wanted to highlight two time Woulden Award winner, but
Speaker 1: somehow kind of under the radar, Like I remember when
Speaker 1: I finally got to watch it. I don't really watch
Speaker 1: a lot of college hoops, and when I finally watched
Speaker 1: him play this year, I think it was in the
Speaker 1: Ncuba Tournament. So it's like in the Ncuba Tournament of
Speaker 1: his second year winning the Wooden Awards, so like being
Speaker 1: the best college basketball player. I was like, well, so
Speaker 1: where do they have him going in mock drafts? And
Speaker 1: it was like late second round, like people were like,
Speaker 1: this guy's gonna this guy's gonna stink. Yeah, I didn't
Speaker 1: quite understand that. I still don't understand where that was
Speaker 1: coming from. I guess people think he might be a
Speaker 1: little bit slow, but I don't know. He looks like
Speaker 1: he can play. So he had one summer league game
Speaker 1: and then he twisted his ankle. But in that game
Speaker 1: he had fourteen points, fifteen boards like Q, A couple
Speaker 1: really convincing and important blocks, a game saving tip in
Speaker 1: like uh, actually missed free throw down by two? Uh
Speaker 1: he tips it in? I don't know, he I and
Speaker 1: and he's he's now the favorite to be Rookie of
Speaker 1: the year because he's coming right in. I think did
Speaker 1: he go eight or nine to Memphis? Yeah, he ended
Speaker 1: up like rocketing up the but Memphis has a need
Speaker 1: at center, so he's gonna get burned if he can
Speaker 1: stay healthy.
Speaker 5: If he can stay healthy, yeah, I think he will
Speaker 5: be a good player. You know, he's not gonna win
Speaker 5: Rookie of the Year. That's going to Brownie James Junior.
Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying. But uh, but I'm just stating.
Speaker 5: But uh but uh but yeah, no, I I just
Speaker 5: see I saw highlights of the game he played, and
Speaker 5: like he looks he looks like a center.
Speaker 4: Like he looks like a center. Uh.
Speaker 5: And I think, like you know, with somebody like John
Speaker 5: who I think just started playing again or just resumed
Speaker 5: basketball activity or something. I just all or something like that.
Speaker 5: I'm not sure what I saw with Job, but like, yeah, man,
Speaker 5: I think that can be a good team, Memphis Slymphis
Speaker 5: can be a fun team.
Speaker 4: That's the thing. They didn't have a great season last year.
Speaker 5: But when they're all healthy and they're all there, like
Speaker 5: that team plays very fun. And I think he'll fit
Speaker 5: in with that, like good style of basketball.
Speaker 1: When Jaw was healthy for a couple of weeks there,
Speaker 1: like they were right back at it, like they looked
Speaker 1: like they were gonna, you know, maybe sneak into the
Speaker 1: playing game, and then he got hurt again. So it's
Speaker 1: I think they're going to be like in the mix,
Speaker 1: like I think they might be in you know, the
Speaker 1: mix for a top six seed next year, and a
Speaker 1: seven foot two person is just like always in the
Speaker 1: right spots and can you know, put the ball in
Speaker 1: the basket, like see it seems like he's going to
Speaker 1: be useful there.
Speaker 4: Yeah, clean enough.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not really sure why there was hesitation or
Speaker 2: why those mod drafts had him in the second round.
Speaker 2: You know, it's not like he's like a Taco Fall
Speaker 2: guy in no disrespect to Taco Fall, you know, shout
Speaker 2: out the hmage playing overseas somewhere.
Speaker 4: I don't know, man, it sounds like disrespect.
Speaker 2: Sometimes he's kind of disrespect for what I'm saying is
Speaker 2: just by comparison. It's not like it was like that
Speaker 2: guy where he's just where he's just a huge guy
Speaker 2: that you know, took up a lot of space but
Speaker 2: didn't really know what to do, like or didn't seem
Speaker 2: you know, to know what to do on the court.
Speaker 2: He's a guy that you know, to your point, you
Speaker 2: know two time would an award winner and they you know,
Speaker 2: like you can actually get it done.
Speaker 4: So he ate the ball.
Speaker 2: He made me slow and plotting, but you know he's
Speaker 2: got game.
Speaker 1: I remember when Andrew Wiggins when it was rigging for
Speaker 1: Wiggins and it was Wiggins was playing I think Jabbari
Speaker 1: uh what's his name, the number two pick Parker Uh
Speaker 1: in like an early season game, and it was an event.
Speaker 1: It was like a TV event, and I remember tuning
Speaker 1: into that and being like, who, who's the big guy
Speaker 1: on Wiggins's team? And people are like, oh, no, he's
Speaker 1: that big, goofy guy. He doesn't know how to play.
Speaker 1: He's only been playing basketball for like six weeks. I'm like, well,
Speaker 1: he seems pretty good for only having been playing basketball
Speaker 1: for six weeks. And that was that was EMBIID and
Speaker 1: but everybody was tuning into CE like Wiggins because that
Speaker 1: was the target. And then of course, you know, EMBID
Speaker 1: just rapidly improved at an exponential rate. So I don't know,
Speaker 1: there's something we don't trust about extra big men sometimes
Speaker 1: that yah.
Speaker 2: So you heard it here first going to be it's
Speaker 2: going to be the.
Speaker 1: Next Joe l mb uh huh No, I don't think.
Speaker 1: I don't think he has that touch and his game
Speaker 1: seems pretty settled at this point. But I just think
Speaker 1: he'll be a useful starting center.
Speaker 4: And be all you need it.
Speaker 5: You had a guard like Jah, Yeah you had you know,
Speaker 5: you had a guard, you had a Ford, and you
Speaker 5: got a center. And a center just needs to get rebounds,
Speaker 5: clog up the middle when they need to. I mean, well,
Speaker 5: now where everything gets stretched and you know, you got
Speaker 5: stretch vibes and everything like that, it makes it a
Speaker 5: little bit harder. But like I think we've been seeing
Speaker 5: over the past couple of seasons. I mean, Yoka is
Speaker 5: just a different case. But like we've been seeing over
Speaker 5: the past couple of seasons, big men playing more big
Speaker 5: men roles. Yeah, and it actually like working and you know,
Speaker 5: like a center that can shoot a three is gonna
Speaker 5: be great. But I think the big man is starting
Speaker 5: to re evolve in the game in a way that
Speaker 5: can help a team actually like compete.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree. Anybody else jumping out to you, guys,
Speaker 1: what what have you been watched any summer league?
Speaker 5: I I've only even seeing clips. I was gonna try
Speaker 5: to go to the Summer League this year. Then I
Speaker 5: asked somebody, oh, man, we were talking about in the
Speaker 5: summer League, Like yeah.
Speaker 4: You want to like playing that. He was like yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: let's look when it is, oh yes, in two days.
Speaker 5: Was like, oh, then I guess we're not going to
Speaker 5: the Summer League. It like snuck up on me, like yeah,
Speaker 5: because I think everything is I think like.
Speaker 4: I've still just been in.
Speaker 5: Like the mindset of talking about the draft and like
Speaker 5: all the storylines that came around the draft and then
Speaker 5: like you know, a couple of the big moves and
Speaker 5: then the USA team, whereas almost like the Summer League
Speaker 5: has been one of the least stories.
Speaker 4: Yeah, in basketball over the past, like a couple of weeks.
Speaker 1: Jabari, who's jumping out to you? I know you stay
Speaker 1: plugged in on this. The only other person I wanted
Speaker 1: to mention was Reed Shepherd. He looks a little in
Speaker 1: over his head on defense, but his shot making and
Speaker 1: his passing is pretty awesome. He had a going with
Speaker 1: Cam Whitmore two man game against the Wizards that was
Speaker 1: pretty impressive.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's really there. Like, don't get me wrong.
Speaker 2: The rookies are fun. You know, it's their first action,
Speaker 2: but I don't have a great deal of of expectation
Speaker 2: for them. It's kind of just like, you know, let's
Speaker 2: you know, see what they have. The second and third
Speaker 2: year guys are the ones that I'm usually looking forward
Speaker 2: to see if there's been any progress, see you know,
Speaker 2: see what they've developed, like over the off season. Last year,
Speaker 2: you know, you know, we were looking at j Barie Smith,
Speaker 2: you know, for Houston this year. You already mentioned him,
Speaker 2: Cam Whitmore. You know, I liked him as a I
Speaker 2: liked him.
Speaker 4: As a rookie.
Speaker 2: He looks he looks like and it's cliche now you
Speaker 2: know when you say too good for you know, for
Speaker 2: Summer League, but he looks like a guy that's like, Okay, yeah,
Speaker 2: we saw what we needed to see. Uh and you
Speaker 2: know we don't necessarily need to see a ton more
Speaker 2: from him.
Speaker 1: But it's really the way that is why our show
Speaker 1: is not at Summer League this uh this year. Last
Speaker 1: year we did go to Summer League saw wemb but
Speaker 1: the NBA decided this year that we are too good
Speaker 1: for Summer League. So that's why we're not there. Just
Speaker 1: wanted to clarify that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's real, that's real. And speaking of those Spurs,
Speaker 2: I'm you know, like I saw him as a rookie
Speaker 2: and the and he and he you know, like jumped
Speaker 2: out to me. But City Soco. I pray that I
Speaker 2: said that, you know, the right way. Watch out for him.
Speaker 2: I think he's gonna be you know, like he played
Speaker 2: in a lot of G League action last year. I
Speaker 2: think he's gonna be with the big team this year.
Speaker 2: And I think he's gonna play a big role. Really,
Speaker 2: I do. Where's the Swiss army knife guy? You know what?
Speaker 2: You Brian's gonna have to edit. I have no idea
Speaker 2: where he's from, but I'm gonna say France, just because
Speaker 2: because that seems like every player is coming from France.
Speaker 4: Now, I'll look it up. What's his name again, City?
Speaker 4: Yeah that's France. Yeah, that's French.
Speaker 2: Actually was right, he's a French. There we go.
Speaker 5: You know, we're gonna shout shout out to all people
Speaker 5: with French names.
Speaker 4: You know, you know, I hear French. When I hear French,
Speaker 4: I know it, I know it.
Speaker 1: You know what Ken Whitmore is out there just like
Speaker 1: trying to hurt people's feelings like he had some just
Speaker 1: just amazing. Like there's one oop from reed Shepherd to
Speaker 1: him where he like caught it at his like elt
Speaker 1: like where like at his hip and just like cocked
Speaker 1: it back one handed and it was.
Speaker 4: I I do.
Speaker 5: You know what's funny for me when I watched Summer League,
Speaker 5: and I think.
Speaker 4: It's even more evident this season.
Speaker 5: Is the older I get, the more the more watching
Speaker 5: the Summer League is just like watching college players play basketball.
Speaker 4: I guess, like watching college pick up like to a degree.
Speaker 5: I know it's a little bit better than that, but
Speaker 5: you know, they are just kids, you know, like watching
Speaker 5: Bronnie and and the big reason for that is because
Speaker 5: of Bronnie, because students there and all these other kids
Speaker 5: who are sons of NBA players who I was a
Speaker 5: teenager when they got drafted, like not even like a kid.
Speaker 5: I was a teenager when some of these kids bothers.
Speaker 4: Got drafted into the NBA.
Speaker 5: And so like, the Summer League is becoming more interesting
Speaker 5: to me because like I'm starting not to equate it
Speaker 5: as much, and this is just me equated as much
Speaker 5: with with the NBA.
Speaker 4: Like as I do.
Speaker 5: It's just kind of like college and G league almost
Speaker 5: and I know, like you know, that's not the case
Speaker 5: for a portion of those players, but but yeah, it's
Speaker 5: it's really and it's fun. It's fun, it's it's it's
Speaker 5: still like players playing for the love of the game
Speaker 5: until they get to Game one of the NBA season
Speaker 5: and it's like, we're playing for love of the game,
Speaker 5: but also, let's get these fits off, let's get our money,
Speaker 5: let's get you know, let's get on the road. We're
Speaker 5: NBA players now, you know, they're in the show. They're
Speaker 5: in the show now mm hm. For summer league, is
Speaker 5: still just we just playing because we just love basketball
Speaker 5: and we're trying to make the team.
Speaker 1: Do you have you watched any of your number eleven
Speaker 1: pick matas boozellis No.
Speaker 5: No, I'm pretty pissed. I'm pretty upset at the Bulls.
Speaker 5: I'm not gonna lie to you. I keep up with
Speaker 5: like his stats and just what they say they're doing.
Speaker 4: But yeah, I I just don't like what we're.
Speaker 1: Right, man, I gotta say so, he have one one
Speaker 1: dunk that somebody helpfully put to the beginning of they
Speaker 1: not like us, and he just put somebody on their
Speaker 1: rear and then landed on his but and then just
Speaker 1: stared at the person who he had just dunked on.
Speaker 1: And that was in a game where he had twenty
Speaker 1: eight yeah on four or five threes. So like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm kind of a fan, Like I'm I'm gonna be
Speaker 1: checking for Boozellis. I also just like saying his name.
Speaker 4: It's not so much I don't think he'll be a
Speaker 4: good player. I think he he'll fit in.
Speaker 5: I just think he's gonna have to come to this
Speaker 5: team and play a bigger role than he should right
Speaker 5: for his talent level. Like he's gonna the way is looking,
Speaker 5: he's gonna be like our second option.
Speaker 2: Yeah with you know, yeah, you know a lot can
Speaker 2: be developed over the course of a reset season.
Speaker 1: You know, you.
Speaker 2: Don't want them to develop bad habits, but you know,
Speaker 2: getting that type of run and you know, being featured
Speaker 2: like that even in losses, you know, it's silver lining,
Speaker 2: silver lining.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's why we're looking forward to us.
Speaker 5: He's you know, twenty twenty six.
Speaker 1: Baby, how about a Dalton connect aka Dalton netched is
Speaker 1: what it looks like it should be pronounced. But that
Speaker 1: that's your silver lining. Jabari for this offseason.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's playing well.
Speaker 1: Yeah, at number seventeen, he slipped to you. I think
Speaker 1: a lot of people thought he was gonna go higher,
Speaker 1: and he his game looks smooth.
Speaker 2: Because I'm on the same you know, like kind of
Speaker 2: a vibe as Jack Keese, I'm like, okay, so when's
Speaker 2: the other shoe gonna drop? You know what I mean?
Speaker 2: I can't even allow myself to be as excited as
Speaker 2: as I should be because they did look whether it
Speaker 2: was you know, you know, their fortune or other team's misfortune,
Speaker 2: he looks like a guy that can you step on
Speaker 2: the court and contribute right now. You know, I mentioned
Speaker 2: it in the you know pre show. There's gonna be
Speaker 2: some questions on what he's gonna do defensively, but that's
Speaker 2: really the case with any any rookie guard or you know,
Speaker 2: rookies in general. But he's from the offensive side of things.
Speaker 2: He looks like he's a guy that can step on
Speaker 2: and and actually be, you know, be one of their
Speaker 2: better players. Which I don't know what that says about
Speaker 2: their you know, their chances this year, but at least
Speaker 2: they go, yeah.
Speaker 4: You know what about their chances.
Speaker 1: We're just happy that, all right, let's take a quick break.
Speaker 1: We'll come back. We'll look around the league at what's happening.
Speaker 1: Jabari's gonna explain what the second apron means, and uh,
Speaker 1: we're gonna look at where where other people are landing,
Speaker 1: will be, will be right back, and we're back. And man,
Speaker 1: I have heard a lot of people talk about the
Speaker 1: second apron. So the big thing that feels new to
Speaker 1: me about the CBA this time around is like you
Speaker 1: get punished by like your draft pick gets moved to
Speaker 1: the end of the round if you violate the apron.
Speaker 2: If you're a repeat offender, you're a repeat offender.
Speaker 1: But that's that's a big deal, Like that's you can't
Speaker 1: just be like I don't care, I'll take the hit.
Speaker 1: I just want to keep keep going. And you know,
Speaker 1: it's like, no, now you're actually getting punished in terms
Speaker 1: of what you're able to do and where you're able
Speaker 1: to draft.
Speaker 2: What it feels like to me is that the owners
Speaker 2: got their hard cap that they probably always know why
Speaker 2: am I saying? Why am I being nice? That they
Speaker 2: want it all along, Like technically they could still you know,
Speaker 2: you know, uh deal with these penalties, but no one's
Speaker 2: going to So basically, if you have a team right
Speaker 2: now that you know is paying a ton of players
Speaker 2: and you know, like on max money likes like say,
Speaker 2: for instance, the Boston Celtics, part of the reason why
Speaker 2: it wasn't a surprise that their owners uh decided to
Speaker 2: go ahead and pull out and and and and or
Speaker 2: at least exploring the idea of selling the team. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but if you have teams like that, get you know,
Speaker 2: don't get used to it, because it's just not going
Speaker 2: to be the norm. Like for you know, in the
Speaker 2: in the apprecial, we were talking about the Denver Nuggets,
Speaker 2: all of a sudden next year they've got a decision
Speaker 2: to make with Jamal Murray. Obviously they're going to make
Speaker 2: the decision to keep him, but what that does is
Speaker 2: it puts him in a position to where they're gonna
Speaker 2: have to make difficult you know, they're gonna have to
Speaker 2: have difficult conversations about guys like you know, Aaron Gordon
Speaker 2: and or even a Michael Porter Junior. So yeah, like, look,
Speaker 2: I couldn't explain all of it to you, but what
Speaker 2: it feels like, like I said, is it's a true
Speaker 2: hardcap and it's getting it and it's allowing allowing owners
Speaker 2: to say, like, maybe parody isn't the worst of ideas.
Speaker 4: Yeah, which is great.
Speaker 5: I mean, I you know, listen, the NBA is, the
Speaker 5: NBA is in a more fun era of its existence
Speaker 5: right now than it has been, you know, in a
Speaker 5: long time. And and for me, you know, there's certain
Speaker 5: eras that are Every era is fun. You know, the
Speaker 5: nineties were great. I was fairly alive in the eighties.
Speaker 5: But the eighties were great. You know, the Kings and
Speaker 5: the Lakers were fun, you know those even the Detroit
Speaker 5: you know, or going to the two thousand tens, you know,
Speaker 5: Lebron versus Steph for twenty five times, like, you know,
Speaker 5: it was.
Speaker 4: It was all fun eras.
Speaker 5: But like, the one thing that the era before this,
Speaker 5: one of the black spots on the league in my
Speaker 5: and as a fan, was that it was just so predictable, Like.
Speaker 1: Yeah, come into the season and you were like, oh,
Speaker 1: it's gonna be Cas versus Golden State, and it was it.
Speaker 5: And no matter and no matter how it looked like
Speaker 5: it was going to shake out, it all settled to
Speaker 5: be exactly that at the end, where it was just
Speaker 5: kind of it was fun to watch you know, like
Speaker 5: great basketball, but it was boring, yeah as a fan
Speaker 5: to just like you know, get your hopes up and
Speaker 5: then like lose to the two teams that everybody knew
Speaker 5: was going to get there. And in the past, well,
Speaker 5: in the past like five seasons, especially the last four,
Speaker 5: since the bubble, it's not been that.
Speaker 2: Why are you taking out the bubble? Why you.
Speaker 5: Know, since the bubble, you know what I'm saying, since
Speaker 5: the ship But I'm saying, but but as it. But
Speaker 5: the reason I'm taking out the bubble is because like
Speaker 5: that season was just like stop midway through and then
Speaker 5: it was a weird season as far as standings and
Speaker 5: play and everything like that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you've always said that you don't think it
Speaker 1: should have stopped. You thought that the plandemic was uh
Speaker 1: oh yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5: You know when they sent when they sent Rudy Goberian,
Speaker 5: you know as plants, the tough on all the mics,
Speaker 5: you know, that was that was that was all part.
Speaker 2: Of the play.
Speaker 1: People don't know you did that at every NBA it was.
Speaker 5: Yeah, moving they flew that that uh that might cover
Speaker 5: around and just like in every locker.
Speaker 1: Room, wrung the COVID out of it.
Speaker 4: Just rung the COVID out.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So the only argument I've heard against this is
Speaker 1: from uh, a very famous Boston sports fan. It was like,
Speaker 1: you're not gonna be able to like keep keep the
Speaker 1: team together anymore. It's not fair, Like this should be
Speaker 1: more like the NFL, where like you know, uh, you
Speaker 1: can keep a core together. And the problem with that
Speaker 1: is that the NFL has variants built into it because
Speaker 1: it's a winner take all one game playoff and championship,
Speaker 1: So you have variants built in, and you're not going
Speaker 1: to have the same team in the finals every single
Speaker 1: year with the same core. The NBA likes as we saw,
Speaker 1: like what like you were talking about Jackies, Like if
Speaker 1: if the NBA like makes it so that these teams
Speaker 1: can keep the exact same core together for ten years,
Speaker 1: it might be the same team in the finals for
Speaker 1: ten years, because that's yeah, and.
Speaker 4: It gets boring. It gets boring.
Speaker 1: Seven game series, the best team is going to usually win.
Speaker 5: And then also like look, man, look look when the
Speaker 5: sixth player on the team is making more money than
Speaker 5: Michael Jordan made in his last season as an NBA player. Yeah,
Speaker 5: like not keeping your core together is falling on deaf
Speaker 5: years less money. Correct, then take less money like y'all
Speaker 5: getting paid so and I'm not saying now, don't get
Speaker 5: paid what you're worth. But the real reason it's hard
Speaker 5: to keep a car together now is because players are
Speaker 5: getting paid forty plus million.
Speaker 4: Dollars this season to play basketball.
Speaker 5: Uh and and and and this is part of like
Speaker 5: the deals. And I know, I know it's not just
Speaker 5: black and white, Like this money is coming from somewhere
Speaker 5: and the players should get their share. Yeah, but that
Speaker 5: is going to be a downfall to it. When like
Speaker 5: every player becomes a max player, then you ain't gonna
Speaker 5: be able to have a bunch of max players on
Speaker 5: your concept on your team anymore. Like that's just the
Speaker 5: way it is.
Speaker 1: It's Scotty Barnes and what's his name from Orlando both
Speaker 1: got maxed out right.
Speaker 2: Crazy Vronz Wagner, Scotti Bares Yeah, Like that really is
Speaker 2: a case. You can't have it both ways if you want,
Speaker 2: you know, if you want parody in the NBA, you
Speaker 2: don't want, you know, like the dynasty teams, then you're
Speaker 2: gonna have to open it up for this if you
Speaker 2: want guys to get paid. And you know, the way
Speaker 2: that they should, you know, commiserate to their their talent
Speaker 2: and what they're contributing your you know, to the product.
Speaker 2: Then you're not going to be able to stack everybody
Speaker 2: on the same team. It's just it really, you know,
Speaker 2: to me, the argument or the complaint there, you know
Speaker 2: it it falls on deaf ears because it truly is
Speaker 2: a you can't have it both ways.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the complaint is basically, I want the Boston Celtics
Speaker 1: to be able to keep the Boston Celtics together for
Speaker 1: the rest of my natural life, which yeah, I don't
Speaker 1: know how many people are in that same boat.
Speaker 5: And I'm a you know, look man, I grew up.
Speaker 5: I look again, I'm a Chicago guy. I grew up,
Speaker 5: and I grew up in the nineties dynasty.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 5: So I'm used to seeing a team win over fifty
Speaker 5: percent of the championships in one decade. And I know
Speaker 5: Boston fans are used to that too. I know Warriors
Speaker 5: fans have that, Spurs fans have that. There are teams
Speaker 5: that have it. But like, even as a Bulls fan,
Speaker 5: as much as I would love to see my team
Speaker 5: rattle off five championships, like I think as a basketball fan,
Speaker 5: I think it's better to see a team win one
Speaker 5: or two and then like, you know, move on. We
Speaker 5: don't need to see a team win three, four or
Speaker 5: five championships in a row anymore. Like it's not it's
Speaker 5: not good for basketball, not in this era of basketball fanship,
Speaker 5: where our attention spans are so short and there's so
Speaker 5: many ways to watch and enjoy the game and just
Speaker 5: know so much about the game and his players.
Speaker 4: It's not.
Speaker 1: It was a very top heavy league back then, right,
Speaker 1: Jordan was so much better than the next best players
Speaker 1: and you know, uh, Magic and Bird and you know,
Speaker 1: in the eighties. So it's so wild that the Bulls
Speaker 1: are like, you know, just while we're on the subject
Speaker 1: of like caps and hard caps and it's just so
Speaker 1: wild that the and this is a point that I
Speaker 1: think I heard Bill Simmons making, was that like Chicago
Speaker 1: should be one of the best teams in the league.
Speaker 1: Like perennially they're like a the second or third biggest market.
Speaker 4: And their biggest market in the country get.
Speaker 1: A lot of attention for having ownership that doesn't want
Speaker 1: to spend money and is bad and does but the
Speaker 1: Bulls ownership is believe, like even what that was One
Speaker 1: of the things that the last Dance I think reminded
Speaker 1: a lot of people of is like even as they're
Speaker 1: like going into the sixth season of this amazing dynasty,
Speaker 1: They're like, we want to break it up. We don't
Speaker 1: want to keep paying for these guys. We think they're overpaid.
Speaker 1: This guy Jordan's dime a dozen.
Speaker 5: Yeah, we can do it again. We build this, we
Speaker 5: can build it again. It's like, Okay, we're going to
Speaker 5: make sure Eddie Curry.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 5: And the thing about it, so, Chicago is the third
Speaker 5: largest market in the NBA in most sports leagues generally,
Speaker 5: I don't know about hockey.
Speaker 4: And New York is over that.
Speaker 5: I think New York will probably be number one, to
Speaker 5: be honest, or or to and la Is obviously rounds
Speaker 5: out the top three. But unlike New York, Chicago has
Speaker 5: more success than the Knicks have had their entire existence
Speaker 5: as a franchise. Like, we have more championships, granted, all
Speaker 5: in one decade, but we have more.
Speaker 1: Championships, had a good run, we had a great run.
Speaker 4: We have more playoff success.
Speaker 5: We've made like more playoff runs than the Knicks have
Speaker 5: in the past twenty years. You know, not right, now,
Speaker 5: but like, for the most part, we have and you know,
Speaker 5: like we have more famous players. The Knicks are dope,
Speaker 5: they got good players, Mellow great, but you know, like
Speaker 5: the Rose was dope, Mike was great, Scotty was great.
Speaker 4: Like filter like this, and so it's just it baffles me.
Speaker 5: And I'm saying all that which sounds positive when I'm
Speaker 5: about to take a poopoo on the Bulls. It baffles
Speaker 5: me how we fumble so many free agents when it tried.
Speaker 5: When it comes to like coming to the Chicago boy, like,
Speaker 5: it baffles.
Speaker 1: Me, Like they're not even in the conversation, Like the
Speaker 1: conversation happens around the Knicks where people are like, well,
Speaker 1: you know so, and somebody is going to get extremely
Speaker 1: famous by bringing the Knicks back to glory, like it's
Speaker 1: way too long. But the Bulls, I guess maybe it's
Speaker 1: because Jordan's imprint was so massive that people are just like, well,
Speaker 1: you're never You're just in his shadow forever. It's not
Speaker 1: crazy to bring.
Speaker 5: But when d Rose was playing and like it was
Speaker 5: looking like we might go to the Promised Land with
Speaker 5: d Rose, I'm telling you I was in Chicago. I'm
Speaker 5: telling you we was ready like we would we would
Speaker 5: have crowned d Rose.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the media covers it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we were ready. We were ready to crown him.
Speaker 5: And like I'll see often like and now I'll see
Speaker 5: this question often, you know, like the would you rathers?
Speaker 5: And like I answered this honestly, would you rather like
Speaker 5: take one or two championships away from Jordan just to
Speaker 5: give one to d Rose?
Speaker 4: And I routinely say, yes, Wow, I.
Speaker 5: Would I would like to give one to that team
Speaker 5: When Rose was that MVP level, Oh my god, yeah, dude,
Speaker 5: and from Chicago, the kid from Chicago.
Speaker 4: Who says why can't I be the MVP?
Speaker 5: And they he becomes it and leads the team to
Speaker 5: the championship.
Speaker 4: Bro, Yeah, it would have been beautiful. So we're ready.
Speaker 2: We're ready.
Speaker 5: As much as we love Mike, we are ready to
Speaker 5: crown somebody else, like we want to, like we want
Speaker 5: to so bad.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I do think the Knicks are I don't know that,
Speaker 1: so they Brunton has reportedly left about thirty million on
Speaker 1: the table in order to make things easier for the
Speaker 1: next with the salary cap.
Speaker 4: I heard it was like one thirteen.
Speaker 2: It's because like he signed it a year earlier, so
Speaker 2: like basically, he'll eventually get that money. It's just okay,
Speaker 2: he signed it early, so I think I think it
Speaker 2: was somewhere between thirty and thirty five million. Is what
Speaker 2: he's actually losing, which is thirty five million.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Michal Bridges is expected to also take a salary
Speaker 1: cut so that they can all play together. So now
Speaker 1: people are like the Knicks. Are the Knicks the second
Speaker 1: best team in the Eastern Conference? Do you guys think?
Speaker 5: I think if they I think if they can put
Speaker 5: it together, I mean, like the additions they made this offseason.
Speaker 4: We're dope.
Speaker 5: And I think if they can put it together, I
Speaker 5: don't trust Milwaukee anymore. Yeah, who else besides I mean
Speaker 5: I guess Philly obviously, and.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Philly, New York and Boston.
Speaker 5: But I think that's your top three, like just on
Speaker 5: paper right now, that's your top three.
Speaker 4: And I can't I'm not I'm not knock Gonna.
Speaker 5: I can't knock it because I literally just said this
Speaker 5: five minutes ago, Like, if you want to put a
Speaker 5: team together that can win, and the core that you
Speaker 5: can keep together, like players are gonna probably have to
Speaker 5: take less money or less or different type of deals
Speaker 5: to do it, and the Knicks are like, we want,
Speaker 5: we want to win.
Speaker 4: So let's go, let's do it. I respect that. I
Speaker 4: respect what they're doing.
Speaker 5: Now from a broke man's perspective, what you're doing, bruh
Speaker 5: doing brouh.
Speaker 1: The anonymous nobody on Twitter tweeted, then teach economics at Villanova.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, oh man, I think it's going to be
Speaker 1: an interesting year in the Eastern Conference next year.
Speaker 4: I guess Indiana is still there.
Speaker 1: Indiana's still there.
Speaker 4: I don't trust. I don't I'm not that high on them.
Speaker 1: Yeah, to be honest, yeah, I don't know. I'll tell
Speaker 1: you the person that, just having lived through the series
Speaker 1: where we got beat by the Knicks, Hartenstein was the
Speaker 1: person who really I have bad dreams about still. I
Speaker 1: think that's partially because we embiid was hurt and slow
Speaker 1: to the rebound, and Hartenstein's just got every rebound. So
Speaker 1: the fact that he's gone makes me feel a little
Speaker 1: bit better about how Philly stacks up against them. But not,
Speaker 1: I don't know. They they're going to have some shooting
Speaker 1: now that's going to be pretty tough to contend with.
Speaker 1: And Brunson so good.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and you know, Brunton and Halliburton may have a
Speaker 5: w w E match one day, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4: They were It was just on Monday Night rawl or
Speaker 4: one or a pay per view. I can't remember which one.
Speaker 4: Maybe it was a pay per view.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I got you're a fan of wrestling. In
Speaker 1: addition to the NBA, I have to say that this
Speaker 1: immediately gave me less respect for the acting of wrestlers
Speaker 1: because they were immediately just as good as wrestlers in
Speaker 1: terms of acting like they were and they sold it. Man,
Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god. They though they sold it.
Speaker 5: Listen that that that's cool and all, but it was
Speaker 5: also who they were, who they were in with, you
Speaker 5: know what I'm saying. Yeah, first let let uh let
Speaker 5: brock Lessners big budget in that ring with them.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, that was.
Speaker 2: Fun really quickly. On the Knicks, it feels like they're
Speaker 2: set up to honestly defend everybody except for Philly, uh,
Speaker 2: which you know, whether they're gonna address that or not,
Speaker 2: or they don't necessarily think that they're going to face
Speaker 2: them like in a in a post in a post
Speaker 2: season situation. I love what the Knicks have done. I
Speaker 2: do think that I do think they're clearly the second
Speaker 2: best regular season team, clearly. Yeah, I'll go out on
Speaker 2: that limbit. And this is after trying to you know,
Speaker 2: trying to get you to stick with the Sixers every year.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Well, now that I've said them sticking with them, You're like, Okay,
Speaker 1: I can be honest.
Speaker 2: Now, this is the one year where I'll say I
Speaker 2: think the Sixers match up really well with a lot
Speaker 2: of the teams in the East. So this is the
Speaker 2: first year in a long time where I'll say the
Speaker 2: Sixers look like a sixteen game team as opposed to
Speaker 2: just primarily being the eighty two games were the Nick. Yeah,
Speaker 2: for the Knicks, They're gonna cause a lot of trouble
Speaker 2: for a lot of people throughout that regular season.
Speaker 1: Now, yeah, I especially because the Sixers, I think our
Speaker 1: best strategy is not to play Joe l Embiid in
Speaker 1: the regular season. Yeah, you know what I do.
Speaker 5: You know, like every every like major sport has like
Speaker 5: a really dope thing about their season that's fun. Uh,
Speaker 5: And I think MLB does this the best out of
Speaker 5: the top four is like, uh, the trade deadline is
Speaker 5: so fun in Major League Baseball because it is truly
Speaker 5: just like all right, all the teams that stuck are
Speaker 5: dumping off players, and all the contending teams just go
Speaker 5: get that one last piece they need to like take
Speaker 5: them over the hump for the second half of the season.
Speaker 4: It's like such a fun Like in.
Speaker 5: Twenty sixteen, the Cubs did that again in the World
Speaker 5: as Chapman and like that took us over the humps
Speaker 5: when that World Series.
Speaker 4: Like I wish that.
Speaker 5: I wish the NBA had more of just tool up
Speaker 5: for much like I can see the Knicks. I can
Speaker 5: see the like the Knicks playing well and then like
Speaker 5: taking those first forty games to see like, okay, what
Speaker 5: do what what do we need.
Speaker 4: To like get us over the hump.
Speaker 5: Now do we've seen ourselves play or we've seen how
Speaker 5: that this team operates, and then make one move and
Speaker 5: then it's off to the races in the second half
Speaker 5: of the season. I think that would be so fun
Speaker 5: in basketball. Yeah, if that happened more.
Speaker 1: There's just like a whammy day where all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: one player just got shaken loose from their team and
Speaker 1: everybody had to let go around like to get them. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that would be fun. All right, Should we take a
Speaker 1: quick break, and then we'll come back and we'll do
Speaker 1: the rapid fire round of questioning. Oh that sound good?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, oh you forgot. Yeah, we should mention, Jaqis,
Speaker 1: you haven't been on in one and twenty one episodes.
Speaker 1: This is our one and twenty second episode. You were
Speaker 1: on air our first episode. Gosh, couple things that changed
Speaker 1: around here, Not really that much.
Speaker 5: You mean if I went and I'm looking at my
Speaker 5: list right here, and it says if I answer the
Speaker 5: most questions, I guess season tickets, the NBA.
Speaker 1: Tickets to recordings of Miles and Jack, and you can
Speaker 1: just sit in invited. I got you. Okay, let's do
Speaker 1: it all right, we'll be right back and we're back, Jaquise.
Speaker 1: The Olympics are here. So in this rapid fire round
Speaker 1: of questions, which by the way, is fastest segment in podcasting,
Speaker 1: you just don't don't think. Just to answer. We're going fast,
Speaker 1: bing bang boom. Picture a bullet ricocheting around, uh, the
Speaker 1: the room in a in a movie. That's how fast
Speaker 1: we want this conversation to flow. If we slow things down,
Speaker 1: you need to get us back on track. Okay, okay, Jabar,
Speaker 1: you want to start, No.
Speaker 2: You go ahead and start.
Speaker 1: Okay, we got two teams. You got Team USA twenty
Speaker 1: twenty four or the redeem Team two thousand and eight.
Speaker 4: Two thousand eight? Oh sorry, alright, Dan, correct?
Speaker 1: Okay, So I just want to name some of the
Speaker 1: players who are on two thousand and eight. Got Carlos Boozer,
Speaker 1: Darron Williams. Are you start with Michael Red Sure, Chris Bosh,
Speaker 1: Dwight Howard, Ran, Kayshawn Prince.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, defense babe?
Speaker 1: All right? You also got Carmeli, you got Prime Lebron.
Speaker 1: You got Jason Kidd more or Asen kids. I think
Speaker 1: this was a period where he still didn't have a Jay. Yeah,
Speaker 1: somebody named Kobe Bryant or something b Bryant, that's right. Uh,
Speaker 1: Dwayne Wade and Chris Paul. So that's the team two
Speaker 1: thousand and eight. You think they're beating this team?
Speaker 4: Actually, now that I'm thinking about this, and.
Speaker 1: Now that I said all those, now.
Speaker 5: You got me thinking about this. That that team that's
Speaker 5: a tough team to try to beat. A team with
Speaker 5: Steph Curry on it. I'm going twenty twenty four.
Speaker 1: I think that's right. I kind of agree, but Jabari
Speaker 1: is hard two thousand and eight because he's a big
Speaker 1: Kobe fan.
Speaker 5: You got Kobe, and that's what I was going to, Like,
Speaker 5: you still got Lebron, who obviously isn't as good as
Speaker 5: he wasn't O eight, but like it's still still top
Speaker 5: five player in the world right now.
Speaker 1: So like he's just different. I mean, he's definitely not
Speaker 1: as good as he was in two thousand and eight,
Speaker 1: but like he's also so smart.
Speaker 5: I feel and in oh wait, in wait, basketball was
Speaker 5: still slightly slower paced, wasn't The three pointer hadn't become
Speaker 5: keen yet, and you put that team becaust.
Speaker 4: This Steph Curry. Man, Nah, I think I gotta go
Speaker 4: to the twenty four give me.
Speaker 2: Oh wait, Lebron locking steps a little? But up man,
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, man, oh wait is smashing this team?
Speaker 5: Man, Lebron lock up, Jason Terry, He ain't locking up
Speaker 5: that not in two thousand and eight, Bro, Maybe twenty fourteen.
Speaker 1: In the previous season had Lebron and No.
Speaker 5: No.
Speaker 1: Eight was Preheatles, right, yeah yeah not not wait wait
Speaker 1: Boston won.
Speaker 5: Oh that's right, yeah yeah, Lebron a locking up? Steph, Lebron.
Speaker 5: That Lebron offensively great. He ain't locking up prime Steph
Speaker 5: Curry combination.
Speaker 2: Of Lebron and Bean and and d Wade. You know, yes,
Speaker 2: I'll take it, everybody.
Speaker 1: This Lebron, oh wait, Lebron is not as good like
Speaker 1: what he really needed that that loss to Dallas to
Speaker 1: become like.
Speaker 5: That's that's prime Lebron, right there is. Twenty eleven through
Speaker 5: fifteen sixteen is prime Lebron. Uh, that's Lebron at his peak,
Speaker 5: offensively and defensively.
Speaker 2: I need y'all to go back and watch them O
Speaker 2: eight Lebron highlights. Man, I'm sorry. Oh right, you're one
Speaker 2: hundred percent right in terms of you know, twenty twelve,
Speaker 2: twenty thirteen, it was ridiculous, but oh w eight Lebron
Speaker 2: was still so nasty.
Speaker 1: It's pretty nicely he was great.
Speaker 2: It's disgusting.
Speaker 4: He was just ye, he was yelking on people.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, it's fair.
Speaker 4: I still got to go twenty twenty four. That's why
Speaker 4: were you Let.
Speaker 2: Me ask this as a follow up. By the way,
Speaker 2: this is a rabid fire. So this was supposed to
Speaker 2: be just yeah, and.
Speaker 4: Now way up here discussing this stuff.
Speaker 2: All right, I'll get it off of that, but stick
Speaker 2: with Team USA. What is the one moment or game
Speaker 2: from Team USA history that you wish Twitter had been
Speaker 2: around for.
Speaker 5: Oh, I wish it would have been around for that
Speaker 5: game where Charles Barkley was like, uh, I get what.
Speaker 4: The name is now, but I don't know them. We're
Speaker 4: gonna beat them with like the like when he said
Speaker 4: that quote, and they'd like to see it happen. It
Speaker 4: would have been amazing. It would have been so funny.
Speaker 5: Uh. And then also and then also the second second
Speaker 5: response is and because I just saw this on Twitter,
Speaker 5: but I wasn't big on Twitter when this happened. Was
Speaker 5: like the New Zealand team did like the little tribal
Speaker 5: dance before like before.
Speaker 4: The game, and the NBA players were just watching, like
Speaker 4: what the heck is this? And this dream team it
Speaker 4: was there.
Speaker 5: I think it was the Dream Team, yeah, or the
Speaker 5: or like the USA team and then uh, and then
Speaker 5: they beat them by like thirty point.
Speaker 2: Twelve or twenty sixteen, but I think it was like
Speaker 2: twenty twelve.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it was twenty twelve. It was so funny.
Speaker 5: They had the hockey that we're doing in the haka dance,
Speaker 5: which was dope, but it's also meant.
Speaker 4: To intimidate and be intimidating and imposing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know what you're talking about.
Speaker 4: Cool and they who Yeah, that would have been great.
