Speaker 3: and answer a few of your questions that you guys

49
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 3: sent in. They're all all Star weekend related, so We'll

50
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 3: do that a little bit later in the show, but

51
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:49,119
Speaker 3: let's start with the games. There were eleven on last night.

52
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:51,920
Speaker 3: We'll try and touch on as many as possible. Let's start, though,

53
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 3: with the Blazers hitting twenty three three pointers as they

54
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:01,240
Speaker 3: beat the Lebron less Lakers one twenty seven, one point fifteen.

55
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,920
Speaker 3: Lebron misses his third game in a row after setting

56
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 3: the all time scoring record, and people are wondering, what's

57
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 3: going on?

58
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 1: Is it his foot, is it his ankle? When's he

59
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 1: coming back Wednesday? What the hell? Anyway, what do you think?

60
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, we were on playback last night watching some of

61
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:19,079
Speaker 4: the early games and the takes were getting hot around Lebron.

62
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 4: It was a very non no dunk sied conversation. It

63
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 4: was one of those other sports talk conversations. But it

64
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:30,240
Speaker 4: is true. He hasn't played since he set the record,

65
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:32,639
Speaker 4: and he played after he set the record in that game,

66
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,080
Speaker 4: in the fourth quarter of that game. But even that

67
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 4: fourth quarter he kind of wasn't playing. He was taking

68
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 4: a backseat to everybody else. He has had imaging on

69
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 4: that foot. So there is a problem. But it sure

70
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 4: feels like, just from this perspective, that he could be

71
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 4: playing through it. It's more like he's hurt and not injured.

72
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 4: There's that difference, it feels like. And obviously the team

73
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 4: on the floor. Let's give a little credit to the Blazers.

74
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 4: Hell yeah, moving that thing around, moving that rock around. Yesterday,

75
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 4: everybody hitting threes. They got out to a thirty four

76
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 4: point first quarter, starting their new guys, Cam Reddish and

77
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:10,960
Speaker 4: Matist Thibel that they picked up at the trade deadline.

78
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 4: Even Thible was hitting threes last night. Oh yeah, Shitten

79
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 4: Sharp doesn't hit a lot of threes off the bench.

80
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 4: The young rook the nineteen year old, the three looks

81
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,480
Speaker 4: good though. Everybody feeling it. And I guess what the

82
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 4: problem was with on the Laker side, just the defensive connectivity.

83
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 4: It's just a little too late. It feels like they

84
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 4: get this thing together. You look up and down the

85
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 4: West Conference standings. We'll get to the MAVs who have

86
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:32,000
Speaker 4: lost two in a row. Now, you lose a couple

87
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:37,440
Speaker 4: of games and you got probs and so the Lakers, Yeah,

88
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 4: they improved, but you got to put it together right away.

89
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 4: And they're starting from a deficit because they're so far

90
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 4: back in the thirteenth seed in the Western conference, and

91
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 4: it's gonna be hard for them to come back. Period.

92
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 3: This is what Chris Haynes said about Lebron's foot I

93
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:52,359
Speaker 3: believe on his new podcast there with Stein quote. The

94
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 3: way it was explained to me is that sometimes it

95
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:58,040
Speaker 3: flares up different sides of his foot, depending on the cut,

96
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,359
Speaker 3: the way that he plants certain times. He went on

97
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 3: to say it's something that might linger all season long,

98
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,119
Speaker 3: and then Haines later went on to say, though they're

99
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,800
Speaker 3: saying it's the ankle, so is it foot?

100
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 1: Is the ankle?

101
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 3: They're all connected, doctor Kirby. But yeah, we did get

102
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,160
Speaker 3: into this, like what's going on here? He's at the

103
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 3: Super Bowl. He was working out before the game yesterday

104
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 3: with Phil Handy. There was footage going around. Obviously he

105
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 3: decided to set him down. He's played a ton of minutes.

106
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 3: I mean, forgot that is thirty eight years old, play

107
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,560
Speaker 3: a ton of minutes in January was a part of that,

108
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 3: trying to get the all time scoring record. Possibly, but

109
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:31,919
Speaker 3: my all accounts, he's gonna come back on Wednesday, just

110
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 3: in time for the All Star Game, right, I love it.

111
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 1: I love it. We gotta see Lebron in this big

112
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 1: time All star showcase that has no impact on the

113
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 1: Lakers season. I'm with Y Skeets, you need some rest.

114
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 1: The guy's thirty eight years old. He literally carried their

115
00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 1: team while Anthony Davis missed a huge chunk of time.

116
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:50,839
Speaker 1: He's a very nice sixty ninth and total minutes in

117
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,839
Speaker 1: the league, at least heading into last night's games. This

118
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,200
Speaker 1: is the most minutes per game he's played since twenty eighteen.

119
00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 1: This is the Lakers twenty eighteen season. I don't people

120
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:04,040
Speaker 1: are noticing the parallels here Starguard who isn't living up

121
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 1: to the hype. We gotta get him out. The vibes

122
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 1: are bad until he gets out, and the team is

123
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,280
Speaker 1: good but not great. But the Lakers right now they

124
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 1: need wins. They're two and a half games out of

125
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 1: tenth seed. Right now, there's still six games under five hundred.

126
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 1: Lebron put a ton of public pressure on Rob Polinka

127
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,840
Speaker 1: to make moves. Polinka made moves, and then Lebron hasn't

128
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 1: even played with the guys yet. So that's the thing.

129
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,360
Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, maybe the defensive connectivity isn't there. There

130
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 1: are certainly issues on the court, but the main thing

131
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 1: is their star is not playing in games that they

132
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 1: absolutely need to win. And yeah, Portland, they were on

133
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,359
Speaker 1: fire last night twenty three to three point or seventeen

134
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 1: in the first half. It was either Lillard, Cook and

135
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 1: Austin Reeves, which you'll take that match up one hundred

136
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 1: times out of one hundred if you're the Blazers, or

137
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 1: a wide open shot for a guy like Watford or Thible.

138
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:51,799
Speaker 1: Shooting's contagious. They're getting wide open looks. Was the plan

139
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 1: from Darvin Ham, the Ham plan. They did such a

140
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,479
Speaker 1: good job the Lakers did against the Warriors. Taken away,

141
00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:59,360
Speaker 1: they're three pointers. It is crazy to see them playing

142
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,359
Speaker 1: completely different against the Blazer's team that's trying to do

143
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 1: the same thing. So I thought, pretty poor planning from

144
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,280
Speaker 1: Darvin and the crew, and then disappointing if you're a

145
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 1: Lakers fan to not see Lebron out there when theoretically

146
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 1: they're trying to make it to the playoffs.

147
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're five and nine now in games that Lebron

148
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 3: doesn't play this season. Just sort of their record when

149
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 3: Lebron does play in terms of whinny percentage. No, no, no,

150
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,040
Speaker 3: I guess it's better when he was playing, But yeah,

151
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,400
Speaker 3: slightly better, but yeah, they need these and this is

152
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 3: a team they're going to be competing against in theory

153
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 3: for one of these spots. Is the other part, Like

154
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:32,600
Speaker 3: no one would be making a big deal about this

155
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 3: at all. Of course, if the Lakers record was flipped

156
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,360
Speaker 3: right and they were, you know, comfortably in a playoff

157
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 3: position or you know, somewhere they're flirting with home court

158
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 3: advantage in a first round, no one would care or

159
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,760
Speaker 3: we'll be like, oh, yeah, absolutely, guys, thirty eight ton

160
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 3: of minutes got the record All Star week. It's a

161
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 3: strange week as it is. You got new pieces, yeah,

162
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 3: rest up, But the difference is here, like they need

163
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 3: these ws and like you just start looking at how

164
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 3: many games are left and start crunching, like what they

165
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 3: have to go to even have a chance to get

166
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 3: in the play in potentially even on the road in

167
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 3: the play in, And it's like, wow, it's getting late

168
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 3: early pass.

169
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 4: I like that same.

170
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 1: I love that line. Put it on a magnet.

171
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 4: It's gonna feel like that in Utah when we're doing

172
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 4: a show Mountain Time. It's getting late in the show,

173
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 4: but it's early. I guess it's getting early late. Probably

174
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 4: the better saying anyway, you know, you can manipulate it

175
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 4: however you want. It's getting early late here in Salt

176
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 4: Lake City. It's time to call it a day. Anyway,

177
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,360
Speaker 4: wait for you to see it stage. Yeah, I'm not

178
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 4: sure which one we're gonna go with, but I got

179
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 4: a few days to think about it. It is getting

180
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 4: late for the Lakers. Trey brought up a really good

181
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 4: win against the Warriors on Saturday. They fought, they scrapped

182
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,959
Speaker 4: against the Warriors. But this team just can't do it

183
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,280
Speaker 4: multiple games in a row. They can't string multiple games

184
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 4: in a row. They'd lost multiple games in a row

185
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 4: before that win against the Golden State Warriors, where they

186
00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,959
Speaker 4: did scrap, they did fight, and the connectivity he was better,

187
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,440
Speaker 4: but the Blazers had just started raining down. And the

188
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,560
Speaker 4: Lakers still have that problem. Even though Malik Beasley, who

189
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,680
Speaker 4: they got as part of their you know triumvirt of

190
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 4: guys that they they brought over at the trade deadline

191
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 4: along with d Angel Russell, he came up. He hit

192
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 4: six threes off the bench, He led the team in

193
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 4: scoring off the bench. You get that, but you don't

194
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 4: get enough defensive effort. And who's that on to me? Yes,

195
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,200
Speaker 4: we can talk about Lebron, but Anthony Davis has not

196
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 4: lived up to his billings since coming back from his injury.

197
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 4: I mean, you've got to you got to run a defense.

198
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 4: You gotta get these guys to scrap a little bit more.

199
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 4: And it's all going on on Bron here and talking

200
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 4: about his foot slash ankle slash being old. Like, if

201
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 4: you want to come into VIP and and look at

202
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:44,600
Speaker 4: all of our bodies and all our injuries, I'm sure

203
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:46,120
Speaker 4: we've got a ton of them as well. I mean,

204
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 4: you know we're not gonna take off our clothes and

205
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:53,599
Speaker 4: I'm saying extra for that. Yeah vvbb ankle ankle slash,

206
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 4: foot slash. Lebron is definitely playing through stuff. Anthony Davis

207
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 4: got to play through stuff too, and get some dubs here.

208
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,640
Speaker 4: But it's there's six games under five hundred, so yeah,

209
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 4: the playing tournaments on the horizon, it's it's there for

210
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 4: the taking the play in tournament spot. But then then

211
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 4: there they're screwed. Beyond that.

212
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 1: They got to play their best basketball of the season

213
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 1: for two months straight to get the eighth seed, right

214
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 1: and then try and win there and then go into

215
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 1: the actual playoffs and try to win another three series.

216
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:27,720
Speaker 1: Once they started two and ten, it was over for

217
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:29,719
Speaker 1: the Lakers. And you're seeing it now. That was eight

218
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 1: games under five hundred. We're now two and a half

219
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,440
Speaker 1: months further on down the line, they're six games under

220
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 1: five hundred. Every game counts.

221
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 3: Darvin Ham said the team had no answer for Lila

222
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 3: last night. He had thirty in the first half. Yeah,

223
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 3: so that was true, he said, quote aside from stealing

224
00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,679
Speaker 3: his sneakers, I don't know what else you could do.

225
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,319
Speaker 3: Galaxy brain thinking they're from the coach, though, he should

226
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 3: try to steal his sneakers. They always have replacements obviously

227
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:56,560
Speaker 3: back in the locker room. But how many times would

228
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 3: you have to steal a superstar sneakers in a game

229
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 3: for him be like, damn, they.

230
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:04,959
Speaker 1: Got them all out? Like how many sneers?

231
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 3: Dammy A Lillard have a the arena. I'd love to

232
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,439
Speaker 3: know somebody get on that Jason quick. If you could

233
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:10,680
Speaker 3: ask some questions, I'd be great.

234
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 4: I'm sure somebody would drive them in from his house.

235
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:15,160
Speaker 1: Or I think your teammate could give him a pair.

236
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 4: Yeah you know, yeah, Lillard's probably not a very odd size.

237
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,200
Speaker 1: What size is Damian Lillard. I'm sure it's out there.

238
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 3: Fifteen Oh, I don't know, fourteen.

239
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,239
Speaker 1: Thirteen, he's smaller. You're right, you're right, okay.

240
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:31,520
Speaker 4: Anyway, anyway, but lighteen come on.

241
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 1: Like some roomy sixteen. That's a big footle lies six

242
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 1: one hundred and ninety five too, Okay, so that.

243
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 3: Means he's really six to one probably exactly.

244
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:46,160
Speaker 1: That's a big foot man. Tray Hervey is, I'm jealous.

245
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 1: I'm jealous at this man's feet. I got three inches

246
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 1: on this guy and he's got I don't want to

247
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:56,680
Speaker 1: see he's four and a half shoe sizes on me.

248
00:11:56,800 --> 00:12:00,560
Speaker 1: That's like, that's like a thirteen year old. Thirteen year

249
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 1: old's fucking fitting.

250
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:05,080
Speaker 3: Jimmy Lillard could play very comfortably in these big red

251
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 3: boots on everybody's rocket. I saw seth rollins and was

252
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 3: wearing them last night. Lillard has scored at least twenty

253
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 3: four points in each of his last nineteen games, and

254
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,839
Speaker 3: he's averaging thirty six point nine points per game seven

255
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:20,080
Speaker 3: point four assists per game, with shooting percentages a fifty

256
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,600
Speaker 3: one point one from the field, thirty nine from deep,

257
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 3: and ninety four point five percent at the line. He's

258
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 3: basically automatic there over that span that's nineteen twenty games

259
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:32,680
Speaker 3: he is. This happens really every year with Lillard where

260
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:36,160
Speaker 3: there is that you know, three to four week stretch

261
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 3: where he's just one of the best scores in the

262
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:40,760
Speaker 3: game and you're like reminded of it as he tries

263
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:42,800
Speaker 3: to drag his team to a play in or a

264
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 3: playoff spot.

265
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, it doesn't really matter who the Lakers had on him.

266
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,880
Speaker 4: We can you know, Poke fun At whoever guarding him.

267
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:51,560
Speaker 4: But you set a pick for this guy, he's he's

268
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:54,440
Speaker 4: gonna go off. It's more of the team defense thing.

269
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,040
Speaker 4: I think that was the problem and maybe they just

270
00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 4: missed Russell Westbrook. I'm kidding, it's Russell Usburg's defense is

271
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 4: not going to be a not going to bring it

272
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 4: to wins. But I just wanted to bring up his

273
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 4: name because the bull crap that Russ's name took after

274
00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:12,120
Speaker 4: the trade deadline, that he was the locker room cancer.

275
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 4: Come on, anyway, just wanted to say that just in

276
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 4: in his defense.

277
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 1: Matisse Steibel just back to him. Awesome start there for

278
00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,439
Speaker 1: the Blazers. Fourteen point six boards, four to three pointers

279
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 1: made to assist, one steal, three blocks. He filled up

280
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,319
Speaker 1: the box score and I saw from Basketball Reference here

281
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 1: this morning Thibel third player in NBA history to record

282
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,720
Speaker 1: at least four threes and three blocks in his first

283
00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:38,720
Speaker 1: game with a new team. The other people to do it,

284
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:39,679
Speaker 1: it's just insane.

285
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:45,000
Speaker 3: Andre Ingram, the Lakers great Andre Ingram. He did it

286
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:48,720
Speaker 3: in his first game. Three point shooting they do. He

287
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 3: hit four threes. He had three blocks in the twenty

288
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 3: eighteen season there in April when he got called up.

289
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,240
Speaker 3: And then this is the wildest part of the stat.

290
00:13:55,720 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 3: Donielle Marshall did it twice. He did it with the

291
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:02,560
Speaker 3: Raptors in three and he did it in his first

292
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 3: game there with the Wolves in nineteen ninety four. Donielle Marshall,

293
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,079
Speaker 3: Andre Ingram, and now batist Stiebel.

294
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 4: I doubted Donielle Marshall once Lang Whittaker came at me

295
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,240
Speaker 4: on Twitter. He said, what the hell? He was great

296
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 4: at yu konn and he was a fine NBA player

297
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 4: as well. Of course, I will say, you know, watching

298
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 4: Josh Hart that we'll get to in the way he's

299
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 4: playing in his early days with the New York Knicks

300
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,960
Speaker 4: coming over from the Blazers. Some of this is just

301
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 4: a little were high right now? Sure, sure Bible's not

302
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 4: going to shoot that well from three forever?

303
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,000
Speaker 1: Well he might, he might at their wide open shots.

304
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 1: I mean they was. The guy who was guarding him

305
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: was standing in the lane letting him shoot wide open threes.

306
00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 1: He's not a great shooter. No, the place he's going

307
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,120
Speaker 1: to be the best shooter is wide open from his

308
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 1: preferred corner with not even a contest on him. So

309
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,440
Speaker 1: I don't know. I saw Darvin Ham said they checked

310
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,280
Speaker 1: the analytics at halftime and their shot quality would have

311
00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: been first in the league. Defensively, Yeah, he gave up seventeen.

312
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 1: I mean, sure, process stats, it matters, but also the

313
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 1: scoreboard matters and seeing the shots go in. You can't

314
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:10,040
Speaker 1: leave a guy wide open like that. You can do

315
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 1: it in the playoffs, fine, try it. Let the pressure

316
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:15,200
Speaker 1: get to him. But there was no pressure on the

317
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 1: Blazers last night. They saw no Lebron. They said, we

318
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 1: can win this game.

319
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:21,920
Speaker 3: Let's keep it moving here. Kyrie's twenty six points in

320
00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 3: the fourth quarter not enough as the Mavericks fall to

321
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 3: the Wolves, TK, why don't you get to start on

322
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 3: this one? Any takeaways?

323
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,880
Speaker 1: I guess the only takeaway is the end, Like we

324
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 1: got to talk about the end. The Mavericks came back.

325
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:36,880
Speaker 1: Kyrie Irving twenty six points in the fourth quarter, the

326
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 1: most he's ever had in a quarter, which was pretty

327
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 1: surprising because we've seen some incredible quarters from Kyrie. I saw.

328
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 1: He also is the only one to have a twenty

329
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,480
Speaker 1: point quarter for the Mavericks other than Luca. No surprise

330
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 1: this season. But it came down to the final play,

331
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 1: just like it came down to the final play on

332
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,640
Speaker 1: Saturday night for the Mavericks against the Kings. Luca didn't

333
00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:58,240
Speaker 1: pass it to Kyrie Irving. He said, I should have

334
00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 1: passed it back to him. I'll do better next time.

335
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 1: So this time, Luke and Kyrie just passed that like

336
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:06,800
Speaker 1: ten times at the top of the key, trying to

337
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 1: get a wide open three to tie things against the Timberwolves.

338
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 1: They just couldn't get the right shot off and they

339
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:15,800
Speaker 1: were probably too close to each other. I mean they

340
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 1: were within six to seven feet, both being defended pretty well.

341
00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:22,120
Speaker 1: So shout out to the Timberwolves for two things on

342
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 1: that one good defense and also deciding not to foul

343
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 1: up three apparently, Chris Finch said the team said we're

344
00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 1: gonna play this one out, and they went out and

345
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,920
Speaker 1: they actually played it out, got the win. Good thing

346
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 1: for the Timberwolves to not completely blow that lead. It

347
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 1: definitely felt like things had turned in the Mavericks favor.

348
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:42,280
Speaker 1: But as we can see, Game one, no pass, Game two,

349
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:46,440
Speaker 1: too many passes, Game three just right, we shall see.

350
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:48,480
Speaker 1: We shall see. They got to work on the chemistry.

351
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,960
Speaker 1: But they got two big shot makers. Kyrie and Luca

352
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,360
Speaker 1: both hit huge threes in the last couple of minutes

353
00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 1: of this game, So you're comfortable with both of them

354
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 1: taking the shot. One of them just has to take

355
00:16:57,560 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 1: the shot.

356
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:00,160
Speaker 4: Felt like Luca was trying to make up for not

357
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:02,560
Speaker 4: passing it the other night. Here's the pass he should

358
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:04,120
Speaker 4: have shot at this time when he got it back

359
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:05,879
Speaker 4: from Kyrie, because he did have a tiny bit of

360
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,800
Speaker 4: space on Jan McDonald's but him and Anthony Edwards, yeah,

361
00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 4: they're right up in Kyrie and Luca's face. It was

362
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 4: well done. They needed a three. Don't guard the two

363
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 4: point territory, guard the three three point line, and they

364
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 4: did a really nice job.

365
00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:20,720
Speaker 3: That play at the end is getting a lot of attention.

366
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,600
Speaker 3: The defensive play there from Edwards and McDaniel switching and

367
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:27,680
Speaker 3: staying on Luca and Kyrie and deservedly so. But make

368
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,120
Speaker 3: sure you check out the defense that Kylie Anderson had

369
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 3: on Luca with about a minute to go in this game.

370
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 1: He locked his ass up in the corner.

371
00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:38,879
Speaker 3: So he was smart, you know, he was using sort

372
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,160
Speaker 3: of the baseline and the side sort of as help

373
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,439
Speaker 3: defenders in a weird way. But yeah, just picked his

374
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,560
Speaker 3: pocket there in the corner, really moving his feet. It

375
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:49,480
Speaker 3: was awesome defensive play there by Kyle Anderson. But yeah, Wolves,

376
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:51,719
Speaker 3: hold on, you know, built a big league Rudy had

377
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 3: a great game. Anthony Edwards had a big big shot

378
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 3: late where he attacked a really tough you know, finish

379
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,320
Speaker 3: inside and just enough defense to get done.

380
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think you got to talk about the Wolves,

381
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,840
Speaker 4: and it was fun watching him the first couple quarters

382
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:05,199
Speaker 4: of this game and how they got out to that

383
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:08,760
Speaker 4: twenty six point lead. You could see Mike Conley looking

384
00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:11,160
Speaker 4: for Rudy Gobert a little bit more and Rudy being

385
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 4: involved a little bit more offensively. He hit a lefty

386
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 4: hook a little bit of luck, and then Mike Conley

387
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:19,280
Speaker 4: was on the baseline and you could you could imagine

388
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,399
Speaker 4: a play earlier in the season where if it's Dangel

389
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:23,800
Speaker 4: Russell on the baseline, you know, swing it around. But

390
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,680
Speaker 4: he looked for Rudy Gobert drewid defender, Rudy threw it down,

391
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 4: so Rudy was involved and he went nine for nine.

392
00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:35,760
Speaker 4: And I think that's they're playing together and just up

393
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,399
Speaker 4: and down the Wolves roster. They looked great. I mean,

394
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:42,000
Speaker 4: nas Reed in his twelve minutes was dancing around fools.

395
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:45,120
Speaker 4: He looked great. Off the bench, he danced around JaVale McGee.

396
00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:48,639
Speaker 4: So they yanked JaVale McGee. He played two minutes and

397
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,840
Speaker 4: he sat down. And that's why they're working out LaMarcus Aldridge.

398
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:55,040
Speaker 4: What they're working out with LaMarcus Aldridge as a backup,

399
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,280
Speaker 4: I don't think that's a great idea. But but now,

400
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:00,400
Speaker 4: I mean, they have so many questions going going forward

401
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 4: now that they have this two man guard superstar rotation,

402
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:08,080
Speaker 4: and then they have Christian Wood coming off the bench,

403
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:10,159
Speaker 4: where now they're looking for another big So I just

404
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,120
Speaker 4: bring up Christian Wood because those three guys can score,

405
00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 4: and Wood did a nice job bringing them back in

406
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:18,320
Speaker 4: this game. But they're still looking for just the right pieces,

407
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:20,640
Speaker 4: just a backup big. The Algiers thing doesn't really make

408
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:22,320
Speaker 4: sense to me. The Nets tried it the last couple

409
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 4: of years, didn't go that well. But listen watching Irving

410
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:28,240
Speaker 4: in the fourth quarter, watching him come back, that was fun.

411
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:31,119
Speaker 4: I mean, that was a show to see him do that.

412
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 3: One of the games we watched decent amount on playback

413
00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:37,440
Speaker 3: last night was the Nuggets Heat game on NBA TV.

414
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:40,399
Speaker 3: Jokic scores twenty seven and the Nuggets held off the

415
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:43,080
Speaker 3: Heat in the end, one to twelve, one oh eight. Yes,

416
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:45,800
Speaker 3: the Miami Heat playing a close game, a clutch game.

417
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:49,399
Speaker 3: They're forty first of the season score within five in

418
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 3: the final five minutes of regulation. Any takeaways from Denver's

419
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:56,480
Speaker 3: win here, fortieth win in the season. I think they're

420
00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:58,439
Speaker 3: the only team along with the Celtics to hit that

421
00:19:58,480 --> 00:19:58,879
Speaker 3: forty win.

422
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:06,040
Speaker 4: Mark Nikoliokic is unfrickin believable, really, because he needs zero space.

423
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 4: We ood and odd watching him, you know, with the

424
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:12,359
Speaker 4: double spin at one point on bam Ade Baiyo in

425
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:14,439
Speaker 4: the post. It wasn't there the first spin, so he

426
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:17,920
Speaker 4: gave him a second spin. And it's easy to look

427
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:19,639
Speaker 4: at this guy and say he's not athletic, and then

428
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:22,960
Speaker 4: you see stuff like that where he's obviously ridiculously nimble

429
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,399
Speaker 4: and can do whatever he wants and was putting a

430
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 4: shoulder into bam at A Bayo, one of the league's

431
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 4: best defenders, and just getting a tiny bit of space

432
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 4: off and throwing it up on the glass and it

433
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 4: looks like it looks like a heave, but it's nikoliokch

434
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,119
Speaker 4: so it's meant to go in, and it goes in

435
00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 4: twelve or fourteen and popcorn machine wasn't working for me.

436
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,840
Speaker 4: But watching this game, I thought he probably shot one

437
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:45,919
Speaker 4: time in the fourth quarter. I mean, he's just so

438
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:50,240
Speaker 4: comfortable allowing everybody else to go off and it worked.

439
00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:51,879
Speaker 4: And he didn't even have Jamal Murray with him, so

440
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:54,960
Speaker 4: he was sort of point guard, sort of center, sort

441
00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 4: of everything. And so you can't talk about him enough,

442
00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:00,840
Speaker 4: I think. And he was the best player on the

443
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,399
Speaker 4: floor and jim missed the layup.

444
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:05,959
Speaker 3: Which Jimmy missed a bunny. I believe you're right. I'm

445
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 3: just checking the play by playout of here. I think

446
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:09,720
Speaker 3: Yokic shot one time and he made it in the

447
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:10,160
Speaker 3: fourth quarter.

448
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:11,440
Speaker 4: Yeah it was getting close.

449
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:13,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, close game, but uh yeah, what'd you think

450
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:14,000
Speaker 3: of this one.

451
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,440
Speaker 1: Hey Man twelve for fourteen against a team that it

452
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 1: allows the fewest, second fewest points in the paint in

453
00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:21,440
Speaker 1: the league. I think they might actually been number one

454
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:24,320
Speaker 1: before Jokic tore him up last night. That's incredible. Also

455
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 1: a nice game for Thomas Bryant ten points on four

456
00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:28,679
Speaker 1: or five shooting, also scoring in the paint. He's going

457
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 1: to be help off the bench. Nuggets actually got a

458
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:34,280
Speaker 1: pretty solid performance from him, from Christian Brown, from Jeff Green.

459
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 1: When they get support, they don't need Yolkic to take

460
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 1: more than fourteen shots on a night when they had

461
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:43,159
Speaker 1: no Jamal Murray, no Aaron Gordon. What a win for

462
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 1: the Nuggets to pull this off against a fairly healthy

463
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 1: Heat team no Lowry. But you know, so it goes

464
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 1: for Miami and they had their two stars out there

465
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:52,440
Speaker 1: and Bam and Jimmy, and they had a chance to

466
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,399
Speaker 1: win it. Definitely just dunk it, Jimmy. I mean, I

467
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 1: know it's like the last minute of the game, but

468
00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:58,560
Speaker 1: he's got some ups it down buddy. Yeah.

469
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:00,159
Speaker 3: And I love that he looked at the rim though

470
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:01,960
Speaker 3: it was the rims fault. Yeah, it was the rims fault.

471
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,120
Speaker 1: Just gave it a good old Stare. I would believe

472
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 1: him in Denver, Oh yeah, tilt it right off. But

473
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,880
Speaker 1: it was in Miami, So what up with that? Yeah?

474
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 3: Good win there for the Nuggets and Michael Porter Junior

475
00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:13,800
Speaker 3: hitting five threes.

476
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:16,080
Speaker 1: That's gonna help. Bruce Brown has been fantastic for them

477
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:17,520
Speaker 1: this year. He hit three.

478
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:21,400
Speaker 3: Caldwell Pope, who's been on fire all season long from distance,

479
00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 3: his percentages from deeper amazing, he hit two. So a

480
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 3: little help there for Jokic. And it's enough twenty seven

481
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 3: to twelve and eight for the Joker in the end.

482
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,359
Speaker 4: And they're pretty happy. I think with the trade of

483
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:36,159
Speaker 4: Bones Island. There's just the way the rotation was working yesterday.

484
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:39,640
Speaker 4: Like Ish Smith came in yesterday, it took two charges. Ish.

485
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:42,680
Speaker 4: You know, they need some minutes from a backup guard.

486
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:46,200
Speaker 4: They might sign Reggie Jackson. I guess it's just a

487
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:48,960
Speaker 4: little addition by subtraction right now.

488
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:49,440
Speaker 1: Possible.

489
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:52,440
Speaker 3: The other game one we started with last night on playback,

490
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 3: Joe and Brunson scores forty as the Knicks and a

491
00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 3: nine game skid versus the Brooklyn Nets.

492
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 1: They win one four, one oh six los an straight.

493
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:06,600
Speaker 3: They hadn't they never had beaten the Katie Kyrie Nets,

494
00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 3: I guess, or at least in a long time, maybe

495
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:11,159
Speaker 3: when those guys played or something. Anyway, they did it

496
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,880
Speaker 3: last night. Brunson was a huge part. Had seventeen there

497
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,280
Speaker 3: in the third quarter, popped off. That was his third

498
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:19,240
Speaker 3: forty point game of the season. This guy not an

499
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,439
Speaker 3: All Star, but he's on one right now. He's averaging

500
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:23,480
Speaker 3: thirty two points per game on sixty one percent shooting

501
00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:26,119
Speaker 3: in the month of February. We're halfway through February. Pretty

502
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 3: good numbers. We'll see if Jalen Brown is good to go,

503
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:31,879
Speaker 3: and if he's not, Brunson's gonna be one of the

504
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:35,800
Speaker 3: possibilities as a replacement. Could be Hardened. I guess it

505
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:37,399
Speaker 3: could be Jimmy Butler, but I feel like it should

506
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 3: be Brunton or Harden. But yeah, big win here.

507
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:39,840
Speaker 1: For the Knicks.

508
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:42,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's interesting. We always say a guy playing well

509
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,680
Speaker 4: at the right time before the coaches vote for the reserves.

510
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 4: I guess in a way, he's playing at the right time,

511
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 4: right now, before the injury place, before the commissioner decides,

512
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:55,359
Speaker 4: because in the in the first instance, you mentioned that

513
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:58,919
Speaker 4: usually it's the guy who has the you know the

514
00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:03,240
Speaker 4: next in line for the accumulative vote total from the fans,

515
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,479
Speaker 4: media and players, and that would have been Jimmy Butler,

516
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:06,800
Speaker 4: and so Jimmy didn't.

517
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:08,720
Speaker 1: Get it right selected.

518
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 4: So really it's just a commissioner deciding. Jalen Brunson, you

519
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:16,199
Speaker 4: play in New York, you are bawling, you are in

520
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 4: and you could see him. It was a close ish game,

521
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:23,159
Speaker 4: uh until late until for a while, yeah, until the

522
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,520
Speaker 4: best player on the floor won it, and that was

523
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:28,399
Speaker 4: Jalen Brunson tearing them apart. And I think just a

524
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:32,480
Speaker 4: note on the other side, this team with the Brooklyn Nets,

525
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:36,719
Speaker 4: now the Bridges, that Cam Johnson, the Spencer Didity, they

526
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:40,119
Speaker 4: got nobody who can be a number one, true number

527
00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:41,960
Speaker 4: one guy, because they got no one that really has

528
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:45,800
Speaker 4: a lot of enough enough wiggles, shake somebody off and score.

529
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,520
Speaker 4: And I know people were excited to see Michel Bridges

530
00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:52,880
Speaker 4: potentially get in that role, but it's not him at

531
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:53,399
Speaker 4: this point.

532
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:57,760
Speaker 3: And be him every once in a while he'll have

533
00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:00,199
Speaker 3: big games, but the true superstars are the ones they

534
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,480
Speaker 3: can do it night in and night out.

535
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:04,399
Speaker 4: Yeah, this team, this team has got to do it

536
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:08,879
Speaker 4: by committee. Yeah, and now they have so many guys.

537
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 4: I mean, maybe Cam Thomas can come off the bench

538
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,600
Speaker 4: and score forty because right now he's coming off the bench.

539
00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:17,640
Speaker 4: But they have literally now they have like twelve guys

540
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:21,240
Speaker 4: who are dudes who need need playing time. They got

541
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,480
Speaker 4: to make some decisions. It is a it's a crazy

542
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:26,680
Speaker 4: lineup when you look at it. And Ben Simmons is

543
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:28,960
Speaker 4: a guy who's coming off the bench and barely playing.

544
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:30,960
Speaker 1: Thirteen minutes last night, which is really weird.

545
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,000
Speaker 4: But I just, you know, not to harp on that,

546
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,840
Speaker 4: but I know people were excited about the mckel bridges era.

547
00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:39,480
Speaker 4: Maybe like it's like an og Anobe thing, like people

548
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:45,159
Speaker 4: think og gets can get more more possibilities or are

549
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:48,480
Speaker 4: just more opportunities, I should say, and he'll all of

550
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:50,920
Speaker 4: a sudden be a number one guy. But you saw

551
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:54,359
Speaker 4: mckel bridges have that opportunity when Booker was out. You

552
00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:56,960
Speaker 4: saw og an Andobe have that last year when sea

553
00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:58,920
Speaker 4: Acklin was out. It's just not them. It's a guy's

554
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:01,359
Speaker 4: being dude's team, and it's going to be more pleasant

555
00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:04,160
Speaker 4: experience for NETS fans, I think, because the drama's gone.

556
00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:07,000
Speaker 4: But I just don't see him, you know, being a

557
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,639
Speaker 4: number one guy unless you're, you know, unless you're like

558
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:11,920
Speaker 4: we brought up yesterday, unless you're the fifty seven and

559
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 4: twenty five what was it twelve thirteen Denver Nuggets where

560
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:18,280
Speaker 4: everyone was doing it by a committee and that was

561
00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 4: a good team, but you know, not a championship type team.

562
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,840
Speaker 3: The seventh place Knicks pull within two games here of

563
00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:27,359
Speaker 3: the Nets in fifth place in the Eastern Conference, so

564
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:29,639
Speaker 3: also a very important win for them trying to chase

565
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:31,119
Speaker 3: them down. What do you think of this when we

566
00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:32,280
Speaker 3: watch a lot of it on playback?

567
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think top Cam Thomas needs to play more.

568
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 1: Eighteen minutes twenty minutes last night, eighteen minutes in the

569
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 1: game prior, which is when all the guys from the

570
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,800
Speaker 1: Suns showed up. He is their best player with the

571
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:47,359
Speaker 1: ball in his hands. I think he's very very shot happy.

572
00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:50,080
Speaker 1: But they kind of need that much like Spencer Dinwiddie

573
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,960
Speaker 1: is as a starter, but neither of them. I guess

574
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:55,200
Speaker 1: Dinwiddy's a little bit better. Didn'widdy gets to the rim

575
00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:57,159
Speaker 1: a little bit more. But that's what the Nets are

576
00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:59,240
Speaker 1: really really lacking. Like there's nobody you're worried about in

577
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:02,640
Speaker 1: the pick and roll, which kind of hurts Nick Claxton's

578
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 1: effectiveness inside as well. They scored forty three points in

579
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,120
Speaker 1: the second half last night. The Nets did. They scored

580
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,679
Speaker 1: thirty eight in the second half against Philadelphia. This is

581
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 1: what it's going to be like for the rest of

582
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 1: the season. Scoring will be a struggle. They don't know

583
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:16,040
Speaker 1: each other, they don't have like a number one creator,

584
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:18,240
Speaker 1: and they don't have a star. Which is why the

585
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:20,440
Speaker 1: Knicks took the win last night because they had Jalen Brunson,

586
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:22,879
Speaker 1: who was the most storry of the players out there,

587
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,240
Speaker 1: and apparently pairing him with Josh Hart is perfect. Sixty

588
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 1: seven points combine between these guys. I'm happy they get

589
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:29,560
Speaker 1: to spend Valentine's Day together.

590
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:32,359
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, well, the Heart Foundation was amazing both of them.

591
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:35,119
Speaker 3: Off the ben Hartenstein eight and five, but he's a

592
00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:37,359
Speaker 3: plus twenty nine in his twenty four minutes and then

593
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,919
Speaker 3: Josh Hart ten or fourteen from the floor, four threes

594
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:42,399
Speaker 3: got to the line. A little twenty seven points for

595
00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:46,200
Speaker 3: Josh Hart. Yeah, pair that with Brunson's forty not bad.

596
00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:48,360
Speaker 3: I had a bunch of Villanova boys playing in this one,

597
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:51,080
Speaker 3: along with the mkil bridges there, but the Knicks get

598
00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:51,840
Speaker 3: it done.

599
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:55,280
Speaker 1: I just found out today that Ryan Archie Diacino was

600
00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:58,360
Speaker 1: with Jalen Brunson at his jersey retirement because they played

601
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:01,879
Speaker 1: on the Villanovia Championship game together. He got traded away

602
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:07,080
Speaker 1: for Josh Hart and everybody's like, yeah, philodov together, Baby,

603
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 1: Hey what about me?

604
00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:10,760
Speaker 5: About Ryan?

605
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:14,360
Speaker 1: What about Ryan? Ryan?

606
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:18,720
Speaker 3: We also got some confirmation on the Miguel Bridges iron

607
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:21,680
Speaker 3: Man streak because we were like confused, did it end?

608
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:23,040
Speaker 1: Is it still going? All right?

609
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 3: We now know Michale Bridges consecutive game streak. It's reached

610
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,400
Speaker 3: three hundred and sixty seven, even though he did miss

611
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:34,240
Speaker 3: that NETS game against the Bulls last Thursday. Bridges wasn't

612
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,199
Speaker 3: available to play after his trade from Phoenix and that

613
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:39,720
Speaker 3: blockbuster for Durant because it wasn't approved in time. He

614
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:41,920
Speaker 3: wasn't improved in time to go, so the league determined

615
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:45,040
Speaker 3: he shouldn't be penalized for not playing in the game

616
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:48,600
Speaker 3: in one he wasn't eligible to play in. That makes sense,

617
00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:51,680
Speaker 3: So the streak is still alive, and Bridges has yet

618
00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:53,960
Speaker 3: to really technically miss a game in the NBA or

619
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:55,800
Speaker 3: college so.

620
00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 4: He did in high school apparently yes.

621
00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:04,880
Speaker 3: Anyway, something that's good to know. Three six seventy. Yeah,

622
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:06,080
Speaker 3: I know we were happy about that.

623
00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,080
Speaker 4: Sorry I misled people when I said that, but it

624
00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:10,960
Speaker 4: makes sense, and it's like the league is looking at

625
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,040
Speaker 4: it being like just keep it.

626
00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:14,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, exactly.

627
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:16,280
Speaker 1: That's what we talked about last night.

628
00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 3: Okay, let's uh just quickly the other games last night,

629
00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:23,040
Speaker 3: the other four Eastern Conference wins. We had the Hornets

630
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:25,480
Speaker 3: beating the Hawks in a high scoring affair, The Calves

631
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 3: beat the Spurs in a game that Seinfeld predicted, the

632
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 3: Sixers beat the Rockets, and the Magic beat Trey Kirby's Bulls.

633
00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:37,160
Speaker 3: Any thoughts on any of those four Eastern Conference wins?

634
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:39,320
Speaker 4: Give me the Seinfeld line.

635
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:42,000
Speaker 3: I guess there is a there's something going around in

636
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:45,640
Speaker 3: an episode of Seinfeld. I forget which character it was,

637
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 3: but they predicted the fin the actual score of the

638
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:53,520
Speaker 3: Calves beating the Spurs exactly one seventeen.

639
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 1: What was it, one o nine it was, I guess, so, no.

640
00:29:57,640 --> 00:29:58,000
Speaker 2: They didn't.

641
00:29:58,040 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 3: I don't think they were saying what happened twenty three?

642
00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:04,560
Speaker 3: It was It's like throwaway, Calves beat the Spurs seventeen nine,

643
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 3: and you can't get anything by.

644
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 1: Anything has happened in twenty nineteen as well, calvs Spurs

645
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:13,240
Speaker 1: the exact same thing to say, I go, there you go.

646
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,760
Speaker 1: So it's just happened again. There you go. So there's that.

647
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,960
Speaker 3: And look the Calves. I saw some Cavs fans getting

648
00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 3: a little upset. We didn't have them as a winner

649
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:23,720
Speaker 3: of the Weekend on yesterday's podcast because they got a

650
00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:25,960
Speaker 3: nice little wind streak going here and they're they're they're

651
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:28,120
Speaker 3: hanging around those top teams in the Eastern colf.

652
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:31,280
Speaker 4: It's good they're doing it and quiet that people aren't

653
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 4: talking about them. They're they're racking up these rints. Seven

654
00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:38,440
Speaker 4: straight wins. Now they are, you know, pretty locked in

655
00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:41,120
Speaker 4: into a home court spot unless they fall apart there.

656
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:44,120
Speaker 4: They're fourth right now, which is great, trailing the Sixers.

657
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,640
Speaker 4: But I like how they're you know, figuring things out

658
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 4: in quiet. They got to figure out their their fourth

659
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:52,120
Speaker 4: quarter execution a little bit and uh, you know, they've

660
00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:55,560
Speaker 4: made some decisions here. They've decided to sit Kevin Love,

661
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 4: which is really interesting. They're playing Dean Wade instead, maybe

662
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:03,440
Speaker 4: just a little younger, a little more athletic, and they're

663
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:07,240
Speaker 4: going to get a Danny Green just to shore up,

664
00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:09,600
Speaker 4: you know, some some high fives, Danny Green going home.

665
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 4: So they've just made some decisions on the rotation, you know,

666
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,640
Speaker 4: Rocky Rubio back, and they just got to keep winning.

667
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:19,440
Speaker 4: So it's fine. We're all good. And you know, those

668
00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:22,000
Speaker 4: sixers got to they gotta be aware of the casts

669
00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:22,959
Speaker 4: coming for them. M hm.

670
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:25,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're not far behind. Any thoughts on any of

671
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:30,240
Speaker 3: those four Eastern Conference wins, especially your Chicago Bulls.

672
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:32,880
Speaker 1: Well, the Magic made eight threes last night. It's not

673
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:36,600
Speaker 1: that many. Holy, there's a low low number. Yeah, very

674
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:38,600
Speaker 1: low for any team in the NBA. The Bulls shot

675
00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:41,400
Speaker 1: three for twenty one, wow, from three in this matchup.

676
00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:44,400
Speaker 1: They're twenty six for one hundred and twenty five over

677
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,480
Speaker 1: their last five games. That's twenty percent. The year is

678
00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:48,160
Speaker 1: twenty twenty three.

679
00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:48,920
Speaker 4: J Skeets.

680
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:51,720
Speaker 1: You gotta make some three pointers. Crop you got to

681
00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:54,200
Speaker 1: make some three pointers. Chicago Bulls. I think they didn't

682
00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:55,800
Speaker 1: do anything at the trade deadline.

683
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:58,720
Speaker 3: Wait that was last Thursday, right, yeah?

684
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:02,640
Speaker 1: So not what what are they supposed to do? I

685
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 1: got it, I got a solution. What do you got, Westbrook? Yeah,

686
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 1: I mean he's what twenty eight from three? That's an

687
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:16,360
Speaker 1: improved exactly sign it up, Billy, make the call. Bill.

688
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:20,400
Speaker 1: That's bad and I'm disappointed. I like to wear Bulls

689
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:23,760
Speaker 1: gear after they win a game. Today's Valentine's Day. You

690
00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:25,640
Speaker 1: know how many red bull shirts I have? I hon

691
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:27,920
Speaker 1: this says see red on it. It would have been

692
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:31,600
Speaker 1: perfect for today. Instead, they lost to the team they

693
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:35,280
Speaker 1: are diametrically opposed to right now. There's no worse loss

694
00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:37,560
Speaker 1: than losing to the Magic who have a lot of

695
00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:42,480
Speaker 1: the Bulls draft capital in the forecoming seasons. And I

696
00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:44,800
Speaker 1: didn't get to wear a Red shirt. That was a

697
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:45,280
Speaker 1: tough night.

698
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,400
Speaker 3: And you were like talking even on playback last night,

699
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:51,760
Speaker 3: like just vibes very bad, Like you said, like they

700
00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:53,560
Speaker 3: come out and it feels like they've already lost the game.

701
00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:55,800
Speaker 1: How may they end up scoring last night? In this

702
00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:58,240
Speaker 1: matchup ninety one? They had eighty nine the game before.

703
00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:00,520
Speaker 1: They did have one hundred plus a high the game

704
00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:02,520
Speaker 1: before that, but eighty nine after that one too. They

705
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:04,760
Speaker 1: just doesn't feel like there's a lot of belief in

706
00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 1: the locker room right now, and honestly, why should there be,

707
00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:10,960
Speaker 1: because this is the same team that petered out at

708
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,320
Speaker 1: the end of last season. They had two chances now

709
00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:16,080
Speaker 1: to make upgrades to it. But the upgrades that the

710
00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:19,520
Speaker 1: Bulls chose were the Nets trading wig there, guys, that's

711
00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:22,280
Speaker 1: supposed to be the Bulls improved. Sure, sure you I

712
00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:25,160
Speaker 1: know what you're saying, skis. I know you're thinking the

713
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:28,520
Speaker 1: Bulls front off or the Yeah, their GM said the

714
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:32,280
Speaker 1: nets got worse. So there's an opportunity here. So you're

715
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:36,040
Speaker 1: probably thinking a team below them should want to improve

716
00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:40,680
Speaker 1: because of that opportunity. I don't think so.

717
00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:41,040
Speaker 4: No.

718
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:43,719
Speaker 1: I think stay where you're at, play as hard as

719
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:45,440
Speaker 1: you can, and pray to the basketball gods for a

720
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:48,080
Speaker 1: little bit of lottery luck and that the Portland Trailblazers

721
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:49,120
Speaker 1: just keep on winning games.

722
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:52,840
Speaker 4: I don't. I don't think those Westbrook idea is too crazy.

723
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:56,560
Speaker 1: It is at this point it is. It's insane. It's

724
00:33:56,640 --> 00:34:02,240
Speaker 1: insane to bring in Westbrook. But but I will this

725
00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:05,360
Speaker 1: man is made to dominate on a ninth and ten.

726
00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:08,640
Speaker 4: See exactly yea be the Wizards go get those Wizards,

727
00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:09,600
Speaker 4: I mean, go get him.

728
00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:10,160
Speaker 5: Why not?

729
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:12,480
Speaker 4: Maybe they could. He would get every shot he wants.

730
00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:15,239
Speaker 4: He'd bring out little life to that locker room which

731
00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:18,799
Speaker 4: is lacking, and maybe he can bring back that we

732
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:21,720
Speaker 4: believe slogan. That was the slogan once right, I feel

733
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:24,680
Speaker 4: like we believe. No, they don't need slogans in Chicago

734
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:28,320
Speaker 4: until now. Now they don't believe.

735
00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:33,239
Speaker 3: Let's go to the Western Conference wins. Jazz beat the Pacers,

736
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:36,520
Speaker 3: Pelicans beat the thunder uh eke that one out, and

737
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:37,680
Speaker 3: the Warriors beat the Wizards.

738
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:38,319
Speaker 1: Any thoughts on.

739
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:42,320
Speaker 4: Those three Wiggy looking good he did he did? And

740
00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 4: brandon Ingram looking fantastics saying, the Pelicans saying we are

741
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:49,800
Speaker 4: not done despite this. Zion Williamson news. I mean, the

742
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 4: guy can carry teams. He has carried teams in the past.

743
00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:57,120
Speaker 4: He did last night thirty four and a big fourth quarter.

744
00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:00,840
Speaker 1: He just a couple tough shots. We offended and he's like,

745
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:02,080
Speaker 1: I'll just rise up over you.

746
00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:06,480
Speaker 4: The dort Man all up in him, lued dirt and

747
00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:10,400
Speaker 4: so yeah, they hopefully can keep afloat and this Jazz

748
00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:14,880
Speaker 4: team great season, sticking close to five hundred through sixty games.

749
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:17,359
Speaker 4: That's a win. When they look like, you know, they're

750
00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:20,000
Speaker 4: trading their three rotation players at the deadline, that they

751
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:22,480
Speaker 4: would be plummeting, but they just played too hard and

752
00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:26,080
Speaker 4: they got a guy in Jordan Clarkson who's continues the ball.

753
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:28,520
Speaker 4: He was big in the fourth quarter of that game.

754
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:32,279
Speaker 3: Any thoughts there tk on the Jazz Pel's Warriors getting wins.

755
00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:35,480
Speaker 1: Well, the Warriors win. I think it's huge for them

756
00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:37,799
Speaker 1: to get a dub. They've been so inconsistent this year,

757
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 1: and just considering the way the rest of the conference went,

758
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:43,640
Speaker 1: I think it's pretty solid that the Warriors kept pace.

759
00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:46,320
Speaker 1: And then we talked about it a little bit yesterday.

760
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:48,920
Speaker 1: Brandon Ingram has been playing pretty well for the Pelicans

761
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:52,399
Speaker 1: after a slow start from his injury return. They need

762
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:54,920
Speaker 1: him to get back to near all star level for

763
00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:57,280
Speaker 1: them to be able to tread water in the Western Conference.

764
00:35:57,320 --> 00:35:58,759
Speaker 1: They got that last night and got a huge win

765
00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 1: over a team their compete for the play in tournament. Yeah,

766
00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:02,600
Speaker 1: good stuff.

767
00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:06,200
Speaker 3: Pelicans nearly blew it against the Thunder. It got really,

768
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:08,719
Speaker 3: really close. They were up five after Trey Murphy the

769
00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:10,879
Speaker 3: third hit a couple free throws like ten seconds ago.

770
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:14,840
Speaker 3: Then they just let Jalen Williams go down the floor

771
00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:17,200
Speaker 3: and dunk it very very quickly, So there's two more

772
00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 3: points there, down three, and then some Thunder pressure there

773
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:22,880
Speaker 3: resulted in a turnover. It was a tough one. I

774
00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:24,560
Speaker 3: don't really know who that ball went out on, but

775
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:27,040
Speaker 3: they gave the thunder a chance. I think Isaiah Cho

776
00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:29,759
Speaker 3: who's the league leader in three point percentage, had a

777
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:32,359
Speaker 3: look but he missed it. There could have tied the game,

778
00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:34,919
Speaker 3: but Ingram and the Pels got the win. They're thirty

779
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:37,480
Speaker 3: and twenty eight and need every single one of them.

780
00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:40,160
Speaker 3: All right, that's the games from last night. Let's take

781
00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:41,839
Speaker 3: a break. When we come back, right, hit the beach

782
00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:45,120
Speaker 3: and answer a few of your questions. Go anywhere, all

Speaker 4: click it, but it's got it removes it, so it's

792
00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:12,640
Speaker 4: not like the Instagram heart. You can click a thousand times, right,

793
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:13,799
Speaker 4: so you remove.

794
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:18,120
Speaker 3: It odd numbered odd numbered clicks only. All right, let's

795
00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:30,239
Speaker 3: hit the beach. Oh yeah, it's been a while since

796
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:32,560
Speaker 3: we've stepped on the beach. It's the only place to

797
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:35,399
Speaker 3: read your emails and tweets. A lot of these came

798
00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:37,400
Speaker 3: through by way of Twitter, but our first one was

799
00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:38,400
Speaker 3: an email test.

800
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:41,319
Speaker 4: It's from JB. He starts it or she starts it

801
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:46,040
Speaker 4: by saying sup. So, donkey boys, this is I had

802
00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:48,399
Speaker 4: a good laugh listening to Andrew Schleck doing ad today.

803
00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:51,520
Speaker 4: It's it was a Roman ad. It started with yo,

804
00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:55,960
Speaker 4: fellas you ever have problems in the bedroom? Had a

805
00:37:55,960 --> 00:38:00,200
Speaker 4: good chuck anyway, Sup, No, donkey boys. We of the

806
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:03,560
Speaker 4: All Star rosters and our four dunk contest participants, but

807
00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:06,840
Speaker 4: the NBA has yet to announce the three point shooters.

808
00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:10,280
Speaker 4: There's been a few rumors. But who do you hope

809
00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:12,040
Speaker 4: gets an invite? Skeets?

810
00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:13,359
Speaker 5: Who do you.

811
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:16,520
Speaker 1: Hope well well timed email, There's been more than a

812
00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:18,960
Speaker 1: few rumors. We almost, I think, know the whole field.

813
00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:20,839
Speaker 1: After you piece them all together, you'll let me take

814
00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:21,480
Speaker 1: you through it. Okay.

815
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:23,440
Speaker 3: On Friday, I had missed this news, but somebody let

816
00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:26,680
Speaker 3: us know. On playback last night, Shams on the Pat

817
00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:29,680
Speaker 3: McAfee show that I think was at the Super Bowl.

818
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:37,920
Speaker 3: He reported, Shams did that Tyrese Haliburton Buddy Healed, Damian Lillard,

819
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:41,680
Speaker 3: and Anthony Simons will be competing in the three point

820
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:44,560
Speaker 3: contests on Saturday night. So we got a pair of

821
00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:49,399
Speaker 3: teammates that are apparently locked in here, you know, usually right, Yeah,

822
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:54,040
Speaker 3: that's right, that's right. So yeah, Halliburton healed, Dame and Simons. Now,

823
00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:57,920
Speaker 3: according to Tony Jones from the Athletic Lowry Markinen, he

824
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:02,040
Speaker 3: is set to participate sense hometown favorite. You know this

825
00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:03,759
Speaker 3: guy's gonna be starting in the All Star Game for

826
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:05,880
Speaker 3: crying out loud. He's top ten and three pointers made

827
00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:09,720
Speaker 3: this season too, So what's that he's starting?

828
00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:10,080
Speaker 1: He got on.

829
00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:13,240
Speaker 4: I didn't know that, Yes.

830
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yes.

831
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:21,680
Speaker 3: Three other rumored participants are King's sharpshooter Kevin Herder. I

832
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:23,799
Speaker 3: think he is basically a Locke. I'm pretty sure he's in.

833
00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:26,520
Speaker 3: I just saw this morning that heat guard Tyler Hero.

834
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:28,799
Speaker 1: Is going to be in this thing.

835
00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:32,720
Speaker 3: And then there were rumors going around with Malik Beasley.

836
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:35,520
Speaker 3: Now he was on the Jazz obviously traded a deadline

837
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:38,440
Speaker 3: part of the Lakers. Now, I don't know if that

838
00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:42,040
Speaker 3: one's confirmed. So let's just say we have seven guys

839
00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:44,080
Speaker 3: that I feel pretty confident are in this thing. It's

840
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:48,440
Speaker 3: Haliburt and Buddy Dame Simon's, Markinnen, Kevin Herder and Tyler

841
00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:54,000
Speaker 3: hero I always go to bat for last year's champion

842
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:57,240
Speaker 3: getting a chance to defend their three point Contest title.

843
00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:02,400
Speaker 3: But last year's champ Carl Anthony Towns, so he's not

844
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:04,640
Speaker 3: gonna be it, and we don't need a minute. He's injured,

845
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:09,600
Speaker 3: so that's fine. So we got one spot here? Can

846
00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:11,920
Speaker 3: we get Where did you come from? Where did you go?

847
00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:14,799
Speaker 3: Isaiah Joe? I know he's not a big name, but

848
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:17,720
Speaker 3: he is leading the league task in three point percentage

849
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:20,759
Speaker 3: over forty five from deep on nearly five attempts per game.

850
00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:22,720
Speaker 1: Like, guy gets them up. You're gonna want a bigger

851
00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:26,000
Speaker 1: name skeets because the field has been announced. Oh, just

852
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:28,920
Speaker 1: a ten minutes ago, literally minutes ago? Am I? Right

854
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 4: Right?

855
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:34,400
Speaker 1: Okay, there's one name remaining base name in the field,

856
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:38,960
Speaker 1: biggest name in the field, yep, Luca No, but starting

857
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:44,399
Speaker 1: the All Star Game. His team is a great shooting team.

858
00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:46,279
Speaker 3: His team is a great shooting team, and he's starting

859
00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:47,279
Speaker 3: into the All Star Game.

860
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:48,080
Speaker 1: Yes, why am I.

861
00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:50,359
Speaker 4: Drawing a blank right now too.

862
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:56,680
Speaker 1: He's got two first names, Paul George. No, he's not starting.

863
00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:02,719
Speaker 1: He's not starting. He wears green. Oh. Jason Tatum, Jason.

864
00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:04,360
Speaker 4: Two first names.

865
00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:09,279
Speaker 1: People can be named Tatum. I guess it's about fifty

866
00:41:09,280 --> 00:41:09,560
Speaker 1: to fifty.

867
00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:12,239
Speaker 3: We've talked a lot about two first names.

868
00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:16,840
Speaker 1: Jason Tatum, Kevin herd Er, Tyler Hero Halliburton, Heeled, Lillard,

869
00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:18,880
Speaker 1: Simon's and Markets.

870
00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:22,640
Speaker 3: So I said, Joe, no, you tell Watson Abby who's

871
00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:25,400
Speaker 3: actually the NBA three point percentage leader. It just doesn't

872
00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:27,880
Speaker 3: have the uh you know, I guess the attempts or

873
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:28,640
Speaker 3: the makes to.

874
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:32,719
Speaker 4: Relate too selfless. He's too selfless for this event. The problem, look,

875
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:34,640
Speaker 4: I mean too many teammates here.

876
00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:36,600
Speaker 1: I think you don't like the pairs.

877
00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:39,680
Speaker 4: I mean I don't mind them. These guys all deserve

878
00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:44,520
Speaker 4: to be there. Yeah, yeah, Simon's buddy, Lillard and Tyrese Haliburt.

879
00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:49,239
Speaker 4: We talked about yesterday, tyres Alburt getting up shots. It's

880
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:52,200
Speaker 4: a slow release, looking forward to seeing what he can do.

881
00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:55,280
Speaker 4: But I don't know, I like the representation from different

882
00:41:55,280 --> 00:41:58,400
Speaker 4: teams anyways. Those guys deserve it. Tyler Heroes, that's an

883
00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:02,319
Speaker 4: odd one. To me, like what average ish, It's like

884
00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:04,560
Speaker 4: thirty six point nine from threes, not like ah right

885
00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:08,400
Speaker 4: right right, hot hot three man lowry. I can totally understand.

886
00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:10,680
Speaker 4: Kevin Hurder is like the the percentage guy, like he

887
00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:12,560
Speaker 4: should be in it because he shoots a great percentage

888
00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:14,640
Speaker 4: on a lot of attempts. So he's the guy I

889
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:17,440
Speaker 4: think who you think like more like the Isaiah Joe

890
00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:22,000
Speaker 4: somebody getting so many threes up. Not a star by

891
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,320
Speaker 4: any means, but can be in the three point contest,

892
00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:24,919
Speaker 4: that's for sure.

893
00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:28,279
Speaker 3: Tatum's gone in this before too, so he wants to

894
00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:30,359
Speaker 3: win it. I think he went to the finals one year,

895
00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:32,879
Speaker 3: maybe in twenty one, I.

896
00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:35,319
Speaker 1: Want to say a couple of years ago. Anyway, it

897
00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:36,799
Speaker 1: he's in twenty one. Yeah, I went to the finals

898
00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:37,360
Speaker 1: twenty when I.

899
00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:38,640
Speaker 3: Went there, I go, there, you go, there you go.

900
00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:41,080
Speaker 3: I would have liked to like I always like him

901
00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:43,600
Speaker 3: in there. Klay Thompson. I mean, I'm always gonna pick

902
00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:45,120
Speaker 3: Clay Thompson for one of these things, and I would

903
00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:46,560
Speaker 3: have just like, I like the idea of him. He

904
00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:48,800
Speaker 3: hasn't been in it since twenty eighteen. Injury is a

905
00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:51,399
Speaker 3: big part of that. But he's one of the best

906
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:53,200
Speaker 3: three point shooters of all time. No one is going

907
00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:55,560
Speaker 3: to argue with that. He only has one three point

908
00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:57,560
Speaker 3: contest win. You know, it'd be great to get that

909
00:42:57,640 --> 00:43:00,319
Speaker 3: second one, to like put your name on the list

910
00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:04,440
Speaker 3: of like Kurrie and Larry Bird who has three, and

911
00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:08,480
Speaker 3: Hodges obviously has three, and Mark Price has two, and

912
00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:12,080
Speaker 3: a couple other guys have two. Anyway, but no client,

913
00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:16,719
Speaker 3: so we got a right, that's fine. It's the story three,

914
00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:22,680
Speaker 3: It's very story. Anybody tried that yet?

915
00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:27,040
Speaker 1: Does it caught my eye?

916
00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:29,320
Speaker 3: Does it taste the exact same as a serah mist.

917
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:32,040
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm a man.

918
00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, it caught my eye as well. I was there

919
00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:37,640
Speaker 4: on Super Bowl Sunday.

920
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:40,360
Speaker 1: It really pops. It looks like a laundry detorney.

921
00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:43,960
Speaker 4: Whoa Mark Price got mad at Muggsy Bogues on Twitter.

922
00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:48,880
Speaker 4: That's that's my Mark Price news because Muggsy's Muggsy his

923
00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:51,040
Speaker 4: top five Tuesday for the best shooters of all time?

924
00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:54,279
Speaker 4: Where Steph Bird, Reggie Ray and Dell and Mark Price.

925
00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:57,040
Speaker 4: When Adams said, come on, Muggsy, where's the love? And

926
00:43:57,120 --> 00:44:01,360
Speaker 4: Muggsy said six, You're six, number six. That's nice of

927

928
00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:07,560

929
00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:09,960

Speaker 1: He's run one too, right I think he has. Yeah,

939
00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:36,879
Speaker 1: he's the only guy in the top ten and three

940
00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:39,360
Speaker 1: point percentage that made the field. That's that possible? Wow,

941
00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:41,759
Speaker 1: that's weird. We said Band's not in it, right, No,

942
00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:44,000
Speaker 1: Ban's on in it. Why don't they just take the

943
00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:45,160
Speaker 1: top three point shooters?

944
00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:50,120
Speaker 3: They want more stars, you know, they prefer Yeah, they

945
00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:54,240
Speaker 3: prefer Isiah Joe fair enough, and it saves them a flight.

946
00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:58,120
Speaker 1: It's already there. Good point.

947
00:44:59,120 --> 00:45:01,799
Speaker 3: All right, let's get to our next question. Also, All

948
00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:05,359
Speaker 3: Star Weekend Inspire. This one's from at Dynamite. Scott, I

949
00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:08,400
Speaker 3: need an old timers game, an NBA All Star weekend.

950
00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:09,160
Speaker 4: You're sick?

951
00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:12,800
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, who's your starting five? Trey? Help out, Scott?

952
00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:15,799
Speaker 1: You want an old timers game? I made myself some

953
00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:19,640
Speaker 1: rules here. No bulls, that's nice. Yeah, what am I

954
00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:24,160
Speaker 1: gonna do? Pick Jordan's Pippin, Rodman Miller. Noah, that's my

955
00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:28,560
Speaker 1: starting five if it. No hall of Famers? Okay, too easy. Yeah,

956
00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:31,760
Speaker 1: everybody's got to be fifty plus. Yeah, that's old timers.

957
00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:33,200
Speaker 1: That's old not medium timers.

958
00:45:33,640 --> 00:45:35,279
Speaker 4: No Hall of famers though, No Hall of.

959
00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:39,280
Speaker 1: Famers, No, no, I don't want them, not on my team. Alright,

960
00:45:39,520 --> 00:45:43,279
Speaker 1: got first name? I added very first name ahead of

961
00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:46,319
Speaker 1: his time. Made a couple of NBA finals if I'm

962
00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:50,320
Speaker 1: if I'm thinking correctly, very high draft pick. Played alongside

963
00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:53,040
Speaker 1: Michael Jordan once upon a time, but not in the NBA.

964
00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:58,560
Speaker 1: Ge No Sam Perkins, Sam Perkins, big smooth, big smooth,

965
00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:01,640
Speaker 1: first guy I want to see. I don't know if

966
00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:03,960
Speaker 1: he's a four or five. He's playing. He's playing the

967
00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:07,080
Speaker 1: four on my team. These are all These are all

968
00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:10,360
Speaker 1: some of my favorites from back of the Day joining

969
00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:14,400
Speaker 1: Sam Perkins in the front court for my Old Timers.

970
00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:17,560
Speaker 1: Another man ahead of his time probably would average a

971
00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:21,279
Speaker 1: triple double in today's NBA floody devots. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,

972
00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:24,480
Speaker 1: good one. The original nicolay Okic, the original Brad Miller,

973
00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:26,719
Speaker 1: the original guy. I thought my dad played exactly like

974
00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:29,320
Speaker 1: flopping everywhere. I'd love to see him take a flop

975
00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:30,680
Speaker 1: in an Old Timers game.

976
00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:33,719
Speaker 3: I mean, look, if I gotta get back up taking

977
00:46:33,800 --> 00:46:37,200
Speaker 3: charges in the All Star Game, the game that's my

978
00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:37,720
Speaker 3: big boys.

979
00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:39,080
Speaker 1: That was my big boys who are coming and playing

980
00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:41,080
Speaker 1: in the Old Timers game. I also want to see

981
00:46:41,440 --> 00:46:46,160
Speaker 1: former All Star MVP Glenn Rice. I'm trying to get

982
00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:48,239
Speaker 1: a lot of shooters on this team because I think

983
00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:50,440
Speaker 1: that's a skill that ain't gonna fade away. I think

984
00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:53,000
Speaker 1: Glenn Rice is gonna be able to pop ten threes

985
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:57,960
Speaker 1: in an Old Timers game. That'd be fun to see. Also,

986
00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:02,120
Speaker 1: perimeter player wanted some fancy passing. I was happy to

987
00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:04,560
Speaker 1: see and quite surprised, honestly that this man was over

988
00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:08,799
Speaker 1: fifty penny Haartaway pennies are fifty. That's weird. Wow, he

989
00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:13,600
Speaker 1: should be in his twenties. He still looks like, yeah, yeah,

990
00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:17,960
Speaker 1: he looks incredible. Obviously an all NBA caliber player back

991
00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:21,640
Speaker 1: in the day, still active in the basketball community, coach,

992
00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:23,239
Speaker 1: and so I'd like to see Penny Hardaway. And then

993
00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:27,160
Speaker 1: my last choice was a tough one. Actually had Mark

994
00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:29,000
Speaker 1: Price on the list. I was just gonna say, he's

995
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:31,799
Speaker 1: fifty eight, exactly fifty eight. Great shooter. I think he

996
00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:35,319
Speaker 1: seeing him knock down a bunch of threes would give

997
00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:37,040
Speaker 1: people a lot of respect for his game back in

998
00:47:37,080 --> 00:47:38,600
Speaker 1: the day. So let me know if you want to

999
00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:40,840
Speaker 1: hear Mark Price or if you want to see Mark Price.

1000
00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:43,399
Speaker 1: I also assume he probably has great gray hair at

1001
00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:45,720
Speaker 1: this stage in the game, probably looks like Arnie Duncan

1002
00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:50,960
Speaker 1: out there. So it's between him and Jalen rosekay for

1003
00:47:51,080 --> 00:47:54,280
Speaker 1: my fifth guy. I love the media tie in with Jalen.

1004
00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:56,359
Speaker 1: Surely they would mic him up to be, you know,

1005
00:47:56,480 --> 00:47:59,279
Speaker 1: chatting with Sam Perkins out there or whatever. Also a

1006
00:47:59,280 --> 00:48:02,160
Speaker 1: bit of a flashy player back in the day, But

1007
00:48:02,239 --> 00:48:04,080
Speaker 1: I don't know if he kind of duplicates what Penny

1008
00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:05,480
Speaker 1: Hardaway is giving you out there, and you need the

1009
00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:08,080
Speaker 1: shooting from Mark Price. Sure, but so yeah, I'll go

1010
00:48:08,120 --> 00:48:12,759
Speaker 1: I'll go Perkins devots, Rice Hardaway and Price. Wow. Rice

1011
00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:14,960
Speaker 1: and Price is nice. Rice and Price, it's nice.

1012
00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:17,840
Speaker 3: Rice and Price were the names of my two volleyball

1013
00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:19,879
Speaker 3: coaches in high school. We had a Price and a Rice.

1014
00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:25,160
Speaker 3: That's just an odd little fact for you. Yeah, great

1015
00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:26,120
Speaker 3: volleyball coaches.

1016
00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:27,920
Speaker 4: How would you know?

1017
00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:31,200
Speaker 1: How would I know? Stratford was a powerhouse for volleyball.

1018
00:48:31,239 --> 00:48:31,759
Speaker 1: That's how I know?

1019
00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:35,560
Speaker 3: Seriously before my time, Like, they were there and they

1020
00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:36,640
Speaker 3: were there for a long long.

1021
00:48:36,480 --> 00:48:38,400
Speaker 4: Time in the in the province of Ontario.

1022
00:48:38,600 --> 00:48:43,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, tasks, they were very very good un winning

1023
00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:44,919
Speaker 3: officers and stuff like that.

1024
00:48:44,840 --> 00:48:48,560
Speaker 1: Like Ontario basically state titles. Yeah, okay, Yeah, I also.

1025
00:48:48,320 --> 00:48:50,520
Speaker 4: Know some good volleyball coaches. Probably a little later on

1026
00:48:51,080 --> 00:48:54,240
Speaker 4: they did some good offs of work, but nice different eras.

1027
00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:54,640
Speaker 4: I'd say.

1028
00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:56,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, you're also you're from a big city too,

1029
00:48:57,200 --> 00:49:01,000
Speaker 1: huge city, tiny twenty thousand. Where are they getting this talent? Yeah,

1030
00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:04,399
Speaker 1: getting a bunch of firm kids to play volleyball kick asss.

1031
00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:11,840
Speaker 4: In that poof water anyway? All right, great, great, great list.

1032
00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:14,520
Speaker 1: Those good list over fifteen those old guys.

1033
00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:17,239
Speaker 4: I like, how you didn't do the Hoffers your At first,

1034
00:49:17,280 --> 00:49:18,839
Speaker 4: I was like, you can't get the Hoffers in there,

1035
00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:21,680
Speaker 4: but smart move not taking the Hall of Fame players

1036
00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:25,400
Speaker 4: smart and also smart move not going between forty and fifty,

1037
00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:28,560
Speaker 4: like getting the big three guys out there. Essentially, it's

1038
00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:31,239
Speaker 4: too young. That's not an old timers game. Yea, even

1039
00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:32,440
Speaker 4: though people are asking.

1040
00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:36,480
Speaker 3: For that dynamite Scott wants it. All right, Let's get

1041
00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:37,040
Speaker 3: to our next one.

1042
00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:40,319
Speaker 4: What we got that's from Dylan, Who are your four contestants?

1043
00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:45,280
Speaker 4: And a hypothetical all star layup contest? All Star layup contest.

1044
00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:47,720
Speaker 4: We've been talking about that for a long time. Actually

1045
00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:50,920
Speaker 4: put it on Google. It was a question on Quora,

1046
00:49:51,200 --> 00:49:54,840
Speaker 4: you know that site Coura. Somebody asked that why doesn't

1047
00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:57,080
Speaker 4: the NBA have a layup contest? That was surprised by that.

1048
00:49:57,080 --> 00:50:01,960
Speaker 4: That's sicko for Quorra. That's sicko. Steve Shapiro replied, probably

1049
00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:03,600
Speaker 4: because it would be incredibly boring.

1050
00:50:04,040 --> 00:50:05,720
Speaker 1: That's wrong, that's just that here.

1051
00:50:05,600 --> 00:50:08,920
Speaker 4: Steve Shapiro, get out of here. It would be so

1052
00:50:09,120 --> 00:50:15,640
Speaker 4: fun by four leading the way unquestionably in there, John Morant,

1053
00:50:16,600 --> 00:50:17,239
Speaker 4: who are you gonna go?

1054
00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:17,600
Speaker 5: Well?

1055
00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:20,040
Speaker 1: I think Kyrie is the number one with.

1056
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:24,960
Speaker 4: The Kyrie was second. Those two are in Third, I

1057
00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:28,320
Speaker 4: would put Zion in there, maybe because he's injured. He wouldn't.

1058
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:29,960
Speaker 1: Zion is a show.

1059
00:50:30,080 --> 00:50:33,200
Speaker 4: He is a show, a different bod, flying to the rim.

1060
00:50:33,440 --> 00:50:37,680
Speaker 4: He loves laying it in. He's in well alright. Fourth

1061
00:50:38,400 --> 00:50:45,000
Speaker 4: Darryl Armstrong layops. Check our short skeets put this together,

1062
00:50:45,120 --> 00:50:50,600
Speaker 4: the worst dunks in dunk contest history. Okay, he's not

1063
00:50:50,680 --> 00:50:53,520
Speaker 4: in My Fourth would be Jordan Poole. I think he's

1064
00:50:53,520 --> 00:50:58,280
Speaker 4: fancy schmancy with the layups, So Morant, Kyrie Poole, Zion.

1065
00:50:58,440 --> 00:51:01,080
Speaker 1: For me, Zion's an interesting I like it.

1066
00:51:01,200 --> 00:51:04,000
Speaker 3: I mean I get the uh, you know, the attraction

1067
00:51:04,160 --> 00:51:07,000
Speaker 3: of it all, this big guy in the mix, But like,

1068
00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:08,040
Speaker 3: I feel like every one.

1069
00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:10,400
Speaker 1: Of his layups is basically the Saint similar. Yeah, I

1070
00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:11,440
Speaker 1: can't believe he didn't have.

1071
00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:14,279
Speaker 3: Speaking of shorts, one that you made not too long

1072
00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:16,640
Speaker 3: ago that popped off on one of our social media channels,

1073
00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:20,680
Speaker 3: Malik Monk. He does the very very weird layup where

1074
00:51:20,680 --> 00:51:24,919
Speaker 3: he doesn't dunk it but sort of does. But I mean, look,

1075
00:51:25,120 --> 00:51:28,280
Speaker 3: Kyrie and John Moran or you're one two with a bullet,

1076
00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:29,959
Speaker 3: who else would you have on your list?

1077
00:51:30,040 --> 00:51:34,840
Speaker 1: Steph Curry? Sure, great finisher shake Gil just Alexander. His

1078
00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:37,239
Speaker 1: would be all about changing speed.

1079
00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:40,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, like sort of sins off the back, yeah yeah, yeah, okay,

1080
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:42,759
Speaker 3: And then like I don't know, is yok but he

1081
00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:44,920
Speaker 3: have funny cool layups.

1082
00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:47,959
Speaker 1: He makes a lot of weird shots. He does usually

1083
00:51:48,040 --> 00:51:50,160
Speaker 1: with you know, somebody around him, and the ball bounces

1084
00:51:50,239 --> 00:51:53,400
Speaker 1: thirty eight times on the rim. I don't know. I

1085
00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:55,399
Speaker 1: think it'd just be funny to see like these high

1086
00:51:55,480 --> 00:51:58,680
Speaker 1: flyers doing spins and switching hands and he just like

1087
00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:02,479
Speaker 1: is flopping over, kind of falling down, dinking dump it

1088
00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:03,719
Speaker 1: just sits on the rim, drops it.

1089
00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:07,279
Speaker 3: In this hypothetical contest, is there a defender like is

1090
00:52:07,320 --> 00:52:09,960
Speaker 3: Luke Cornett out there like jumping straight up and down?

1091
00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:12,600
Speaker 1: We've been back right or like I think you should

1092
00:52:13,320 --> 00:52:14,560
Speaker 1: so then you have to maneuver around.

1093
00:52:15,600 --> 00:52:18,200
Speaker 4: Like part of the experience of watching a guy do

1094
00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:20,279
Speaker 4: a lamp you usually just think, Okay, he's in the air,

1095
00:52:20,440 --> 00:52:23,600
Speaker 4: what is he what kind of you know, wild stuff

1096
00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:26,880
Speaker 4: is he doing to get around either a rim or

1097
00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:30,359
Speaker 4: a defender. But like the Zion attraction for me, is

1098
00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:33,080
Speaker 4: him able to get around a defender and get to

1099
00:52:33,160 --> 00:52:36,160
Speaker 4: the room. The Jokich attraction is able to basically just

1100
00:52:36,200 --> 00:52:39,080
Speaker 4: go through a defender. So yeah, I hear you. I

1101
00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:41,000
Speaker 4: mean you'd have a fourth. I think you'd have three

1102
00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:44,279
Speaker 4: standard like Derek Rose back in the day, like in

1103
00:52:44,360 --> 00:52:44,960
Speaker 4: the air.

1104
00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:47,520
Speaker 3: Just like you just levitat in the air and change

1105
00:52:47,520 --> 00:52:49,839
Speaker 3: like Kyrie changes his mind four times in the air,

1106
00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:52,440
Speaker 3: which man he's gonna shoot with, how he's gonna shoot

1107
00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:53,319
Speaker 3: it off the glass or not?

1108
00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:55,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, So three smalls, I think if we're having a

1109
00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:59,399
Speaker 4: four person contest, three smalls, conventional smalls, Morant, Kyrie, whether

1110
00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:01,360
Speaker 4: it's stepped and Pool, somebody like that. And then a

1111
00:53:01,360 --> 00:53:04,040
Speaker 4: big that's why Zion's in for me, just like they

1112
00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:07,680
Speaker 4: do in the dunk contest. Three non bigs, and then

1113
00:53:07,719 --> 00:53:08,840
Speaker 4: you get a Jericho Sims.

1114
00:53:08,920 --> 00:53:10,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, the big is usually a waste of the spot,

1115
00:53:11,239 --> 00:53:12,480
Speaker 3: so you might as well do it in the way

1116
00:53:12,520 --> 00:53:13,120
Speaker 3: of contest.

1117
00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:14,799
Speaker 1: No, I'm kidding, all right.

1118
00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:17,680
Speaker 3: Next one here, this is from York tweeted in did

1119
00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:19,359
Speaker 3: we ever get your take on this year's All Star

1120
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:23,200
Speaker 3: jerseys and what's the most iconic NBA jersey in All

1121
00:53:23,239 --> 00:53:26,120
Speaker 3: Star Game history? Let's talk a little little fashion. Did

1122
00:53:26,120 --> 00:53:29,080
Speaker 3: we ever weigh in on these jerseys for twenty three?

1123
00:53:29,120 --> 00:53:29,920
Speaker 1: Here I can't remember.

1124
00:53:30,520 --> 00:53:32,640
Speaker 4: Briefly, it was on a different I think it was

1125
00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:33,880
Speaker 4: on playback.

1126
00:53:33,960 --> 00:53:37,040
Speaker 3: Okay, so here the are on YouTube. Everyone listening to

1127
00:53:37,080 --> 00:53:40,719
Speaker 3: the podcast. You know the gradient versions here from a

1128
00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:43,880
Speaker 3: red to a yellow for you know, one of the teams,

1129
00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:45,799
Speaker 3: and then a you know, light blue to a darker

1130
00:53:45,800 --> 00:53:46,680
Speaker 3: blue for the other team.

1131
00:53:47,320 --> 00:53:49,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, red to yellow. That's that's a good way of

1132
00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:51,120
Speaker 1: saying that. I thought this was an orange jersey, but

1133
00:53:51,160 --> 00:53:53,520
Speaker 1: you're right, it is red to yellow. It's red. There's

1134
00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:55,719
Speaker 1: a little bit of orange ish and I like that one.

1135
00:53:55,760 --> 00:53:58,200
Speaker 1: I think that one looks pretty slight. The blue one

1136
00:53:58,280 --> 00:53:59,760
Speaker 1: is pretty boring.

1137
00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:00,319
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1138
00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:03,759
Speaker 1: My main complaint with these is they don't feel starry enough.

1139
00:54:03,880 --> 00:54:07,520
Speaker 3: No, I agree the stars at look how like like

1140
00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:11,840
Speaker 3: the colors? Fine, the gradient's fine, but you're right, it's

1141
00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:16,359
Speaker 3: so boring. It just says in a very generic font.

1142
00:54:16,560 --> 00:54:20,719
Speaker 1: All star shorts. But you gotta put a star on

1143
00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:21,160
Speaker 1: that jersey.

1144
00:54:21,239 --> 00:54:23,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess there's yeah, there's that one on the

1145
00:54:23,840 --> 00:54:25,320
Speaker 3: back the logo.

1146
00:54:25,360 --> 00:54:28,279
Speaker 1: But yes, on your neck. I'm with you, not a lot.

1147
00:54:29,840 --> 00:54:31,160
Speaker 4: You're saying. I hear you're saying.

1148
00:54:32,120 --> 00:54:33,160
Speaker 1: They're just but they're fine.

1149
00:54:33,200 --> 00:54:37,160
Speaker 4: Flash it up for us who look at jerseys twenty

1150
00:54:37,160 --> 00:54:39,279
Speaker 4: four to seven. I understand we want something that stands

1151
00:54:39,320 --> 00:54:43,359
Speaker 4: out a little bit more. But these are also if

1152
00:54:43,400 --> 00:54:45,520
Speaker 4: they're sold, I guess they're being sold like some people

1153
00:54:45,560 --> 00:54:45,960
Speaker 4: don't like.

1154
00:54:47,000 --> 00:54:48,839
Speaker 1: No, they're being sold. You can buy both.

1155
00:54:48,960 --> 00:54:51,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, but people like boring jerseys.

1156
00:54:52,080 --> 00:54:53,440
Speaker 1: No, I disagree.

1157
00:54:53,520 --> 00:54:57,360
Speaker 4: People don't. People want to have just a jersey at

1158
00:54:57,400 --> 00:55:00,920
Speaker 4: the All Star Game. I'm just saying for marketing purposes, people,

1159
00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:05,279
Speaker 4: your you're middle America, not not not to say like

1160
00:55:05,480 --> 00:55:06,959
Speaker 4: you just have to be a boring guy in middle

1161
00:55:07,040 --> 00:55:08,680
Speaker 4: or a boring person in middle of America. But I'm

1162
00:55:08,680 --> 00:55:12,960
Speaker 4: just saying, your standard American just wants a jersey. They

1163
00:55:12,960 --> 00:55:13,439
Speaker 4: don't need.

1164
00:55:14,840 --> 00:55:17,160
Speaker 3: A boring jersey. They want one with a cactus on

1165
00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:19,399
Speaker 3: it or whatever. The cool colors.

1166
00:55:19,400 --> 00:55:22,239
Speaker 4: A lot of people are boring. They just want a

1167
00:55:22,280 --> 00:55:23,840
Speaker 4: standard jersey.

1168
00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:26,640
Speaker 3: Well that's I mean, that's pretty standard. Well that's what

1169
00:55:26,680 --> 00:55:29,399
Speaker 3: they're doing recently. You're right, the last three years, four years,

1170
00:55:29,480 --> 00:55:32,839
Speaker 3: whatever we're at now, it's generic one color, other color.

1171
00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:33,200
Speaker 1: That's it.

1172
00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:36,319
Speaker 4: So isn't the red rock one enough? Is it?

1173
00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:36,759
Speaker 3: It's fun?

1174
00:55:36,840 --> 00:55:41,719
Speaker 4: I mean, you're right, a star some some sort of design. Yeah,

1175
00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:42,640
Speaker 4: to kill them.

1176
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:44,920
Speaker 3: It's like with the Super Bowl logos. Now they're just

1177
00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:47,959
Speaker 3: all the same. That's the problem. Here's my issue. Task

1178
00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:50,000
Speaker 3: you wear that twenty years from now, somebody's can go

1179
00:55:50,600 --> 00:55:52,440
Speaker 3: a nice lebron All Star jersey.

1180
00:55:54,440 --> 00:55:58,480
Speaker 1: What year was that? Isn't the blue one? You'd have

1181
00:55:58,520 --> 00:55:59,960
Speaker 1: no clue it was raining.

1182
00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:03,400
Speaker 4: That's the weird thing about that. And it looks like

1183
00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:04,360
Speaker 4: it's been rained on.

1184
00:56:04,560 --> 00:56:07,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I have no idea. That's the part I don't like.

1185
00:56:07,160 --> 00:56:08,759
Speaker 3: You wear the one with the cactus. You're like, oh,

1186
00:56:08,840 --> 00:56:11,359
Speaker 3: Phoenix ninety five, or you know, the chili pepper, Oh,

1187
00:56:11,440 --> 00:56:13,720
Speaker 3: San Antonio ninety six, like iconic.

1188
00:56:14,080 --> 00:56:16,000
Speaker 1: You know, it just places them, I think is a

1189
00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:16,640
Speaker 1: fun part of it.

1190
00:56:16,800 --> 00:56:20,239
Speaker 4: Yeah, and this has to do with a body of

1191
00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:22,920
Speaker 4: water around the blue one, right I think.

1192
00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:28,960
Speaker 1: Is that the salt lake salt was supposed to be

1193
00:56:29,040 --> 00:56:34,120
Speaker 1: like the night sky? Oh yeah that maybe? Okay, maybe, okay, okay.

1194
00:56:34,160 --> 00:56:36,480
Speaker 3: So the second part is, uh, what's your favorite what's

1195
00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:38,920
Speaker 3: your most iconic NBA All Star Game jersey?

1196
00:56:39,239 --> 00:56:42,640
Speaker 1: Two thousand and three, Oh, Michael Jordan's last All Star game.

1197
00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:45,759
Speaker 1: They brought back the jerseys from his first All Star game. Now, look,

1198
00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:49,240
Speaker 1: these are pretty generic generic stars exactly, they got stars

1199
00:56:49,239 --> 00:56:52,920
Speaker 1: on it, They got stars on it, but they look classic,

1200
00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:57,160
Speaker 1: and I honestly don't think you necessarily need, Like you

1201
00:56:57,160 --> 00:56:59,160
Speaker 1: can't have a San Antonio every year, you can't have

1202
00:56:59,200 --> 00:57:01,680
Speaker 1: a Phoenix every single year, but you can have something

1203
00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:04,120
Speaker 1: that looks awesome. They kind of did something similar to

1204
00:57:04,160 --> 00:57:08,640
Speaker 1: this last year with like the slightly reddish, slightly bluish.

1205
00:57:08,760 --> 00:57:12,160
Speaker 1: I guess they were gray for the for the Eastern Conference,

1206
00:57:12,280 --> 00:57:13,920
Speaker 1: if you want to call it that, and they just

1207
00:57:13,960 --> 00:57:15,759
Speaker 1: weren't quite the same. They could go back to these,

1208
00:57:15,880 --> 00:57:17,480
Speaker 1: run them out every year and no one would complain.

1209
00:57:17,600 --> 00:57:20,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a good point. Yeah, And these and O three,

1210
00:57:20,360 --> 00:57:23,919
Speaker 3: Yeah they were. They were basically throwbacks to uh yeah

1211
00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:25,919
Speaker 3: way back in the day with like the eighties games

1212
00:57:25,920 --> 00:57:27,640
Speaker 3: and stuff like that. Or of course, we could just

1213
00:57:27,640 --> 00:57:29,560
Speaker 3: go back to them wearing their own jerseys too, if

1214
00:57:29,560 --> 00:57:32,360
Speaker 3: you really wanted to do that. The whites for the

1215
00:57:32,400 --> 00:57:36,560
Speaker 3: home team, you know, your own jersey, and then the

1216
00:57:36,600 --> 00:57:39,400
Speaker 3: away jerseys for the other one colored ones that looked

1217
00:57:39,400 --> 00:57:41,280
Speaker 3: cool too. I like those only like when you see

1218
00:57:41,280 --> 00:57:43,600
Speaker 3: the photos of all the guys and you're like, oh,

1219
00:57:43,600 --> 00:57:44,280
Speaker 3: that does look cool.

1220
00:57:44,400 --> 00:57:47,040
Speaker 4: Nostalgia right there, That's that's the part of it. Yeah,

1221
00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:51,000
Speaker 4: I think the New York ones were similar to those

1222
00:57:51,040 --> 00:57:53,600
Speaker 4: and that they were like simple if you remember, and

1223
00:57:53,640 --> 00:57:55,160
Speaker 4: you know, they had this a bit of a subway

1224
00:57:55,200 --> 00:57:58,840
Speaker 4: theme a bit, but they were just real simple. When

1225
00:57:58,880 --> 00:58:00,880
Speaker 4: we had Toronto and New York, New York and Toronto

1226
00:58:00,920 --> 00:58:03,919
Speaker 4: in fifteen sixteen, the New York one was simple.

1227
00:58:03,680 --> 00:58:04,320
Speaker 1: Black and white.

1228
00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:08,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, just like boxy letters. I don't think you need

1229
00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:10,320
Speaker 4: all the flash. I think you need one.

1230
00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:12,520
Speaker 2: It's an exit.

1231
00:58:12,520 --> 00:58:15,160
Speaker 4: We just we just liked the That was a penny

1232
00:58:15,160 --> 00:58:17,120
Speaker 4: that we just saw that was like that.

1233
00:58:17,600 --> 00:58:20,520
Speaker 3: Was you know again, we liked it because it was

1234
00:58:20,560 --> 00:58:22,480
Speaker 3: a throwback and of course it's m J and Kobey

1235
00:58:22,560 --> 00:58:23,320
Speaker 3: and it looks cool.

1236
00:58:23,360 --> 00:58:23,720
Speaker 5: It does.

1237
00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:26,640
Speaker 1: That's what a basketball jersey should look like. A U neck.

1238
00:58:26,880 --> 00:58:32,120
Speaker 1: You got some striped ribbing around the waistband, around the armholes,

1239
00:58:32,200 --> 00:58:35,760
Speaker 1: around the neck holes. That's what a jersey should look like.

1240
00:58:35,840 --> 00:58:39,760
Speaker 1: Things today too minimal, and that is the case for

1241
00:58:39,960 --> 00:58:42,840
Speaker 1: like a team like the Calves, a team like the Jazz,

1242
00:58:42,880 --> 00:58:46,400
Speaker 1: and then the all Star jerseys we're seeing. Spice it

1243
00:58:46,480 --> 00:58:49,080
Speaker 1: up a little, man. I understand that people want something simple.

1244
00:58:49,640 --> 00:58:51,240
Speaker 4: Put a star on it. That's fine, put a star

1245
00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:53,560
Speaker 4: on its. Find I like the Stars idea.

1246
00:58:53,680 --> 00:58:55,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, stars on it is an.

1247
00:58:57,200 --> 00:58:59,439
Speaker 4: It's from Simon A. If you could choose one current

1248
00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:02,080
Speaker 4: NBA player to enter the Dunk Contest, three Point Contest,

1249
00:59:02,160 --> 00:59:05,600
Speaker 4: and Skills Challenge, which player would have the best chance

1250
00:59:06,400 --> 00:59:08,120
Speaker 4: of winning all three?

1251
00:59:09,200 --> 00:59:10,400
Speaker 1: Good question? I think.

1252
00:59:11,560 --> 00:59:15,000
Speaker 3: I think there's a lot of potential answers here. I mean, look,

1253
00:59:15,280 --> 00:59:19,720
Speaker 3: winning the Skills Challenge, anybody in the NBA can win

1254
00:59:19,880 --> 00:59:22,080
Speaker 3: on the right night, so that you could almost remove

1255
00:59:22,080 --> 00:59:24,400
Speaker 3: that from the equation. But I had four names that

1256
00:59:24,440 --> 00:59:27,280
Speaker 3: like immediately came to mind, and some of them have

1257
00:59:27,400 --> 00:59:32,360
Speaker 3: one contest before. Donovan Mitchell, I think he's wanted dunk contests,

1258
00:59:32,760 --> 00:59:34,480
Speaker 3: you know, I think he could catch fire in a

1259
00:59:34,520 --> 00:59:35,160
Speaker 3: three point contest.

1260
00:59:35,240 --> 00:59:36,040
Speaker 1: He could obviously win.

1261
00:59:35,960 --> 00:59:39,800
Speaker 3: His skills Anthony Edwards, Uh, I thought was gonna go

1262
00:59:39,840 --> 00:59:41,200
Speaker 3: in this three point contest.

1263
00:59:40,920 --> 00:59:41,600
Speaker 1: Sad he wanted to.

1264
00:59:41,800 --> 00:59:44,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, so that's a bit of a shock that the

1265
00:59:44,160 --> 00:59:46,320
Speaker 3: NBA didn't want him in it, I guess and elected

1266
00:59:46,320 --> 00:59:48,560
Speaker 3: for other players. Anyway, Anthony Edwards could win all three

1267
00:59:48,600 --> 00:59:54,080
Speaker 3: of these. Zach Lavine has one dunk contest. He's been

1268
00:59:54,120 --> 00:59:56,880
Speaker 3: in a lot of three point contests and has yet

1269
00:59:56,920 --> 00:59:59,160
Speaker 3: to win it. But I feel like he could Anthrety

1270
00:59:59,160 --> 01:00:02,520
Speaker 3: Simon's He's won a dunk contests. Yeah, he's now in

1271
01:00:02,560 --> 01:00:05,240
Speaker 3: the three point contest, shoots thirty eight percent from deep

1272
01:00:05,240 --> 01:00:08,080
Speaker 3: on the year, takes a lot of them, forty plus

1273
01:00:08,320 --> 01:00:10,000
Speaker 3: the previous two seasons. So he's a very very good

1274
01:00:10,040 --> 01:00:12,400
Speaker 3: three point shooter. And all you know a guy that

1275
01:00:12,440 --> 01:00:16,320
Speaker 3: should have wonted dunk contest. Aaron Gordon doesn't shoot a

1276
01:00:16,360 --> 01:00:18,240
Speaker 3: lot of threes. I don't know how he would fare

1277
01:00:18,240 --> 01:00:19,640
Speaker 3: in the actual contest, but of course could win the

1278
01:00:19,720 --> 01:00:21,680
Speaker 3: dunk contest. But those ones I like the most, I

1279
01:00:21,680 --> 01:00:24,920
Speaker 3: think are Simon's, Edwards and zach Lavine and then maybe

1280
01:00:25,040 --> 01:00:27,080
Speaker 3: Mitchell and and ag after that.

1281
01:00:27,280 --> 01:00:28,919
Speaker 1: Any other one, so you would throw in the mix.

1282
01:00:29,560 --> 01:00:32,520
Speaker 1: Malik Monk, I think, is a guy who could absolutely

1283
01:00:32,560 --> 01:00:34,800
Speaker 1: do it. He can fly, he just sometimes lays it in.

1284
01:00:34,880 --> 01:00:37,920
Speaker 1: And Paul George probably passed his prime at this point

1285
01:00:38,000 --> 01:00:40,920
Speaker 1: for doing it, but could have done both. And the

1286
01:00:40,960 --> 01:00:43,720
Speaker 1: scales challenge as well, not an issue. And yes, he

1287
01:00:43,720 --> 01:00:45,400
Speaker 1: can throw a ball through a tire.

1288
01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:47,640
Speaker 4: He wasn't a dunk contest right.

1289
01:00:47,640 --> 01:00:49,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, he wouldn't. He couldn't see him.

1290
01:00:49,680 --> 01:00:51,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, did the lights out?

1291
01:00:51,800 --> 01:00:52,160
Speaker 1: Is uh?

1292
01:00:52,720 --> 01:00:55,080
Speaker 3: You know, his suit, his jersey or whatever. It didn't

1293
01:00:55,120 --> 01:00:56,000
Speaker 3: light up all that well.

1294
01:00:56,160 --> 01:00:59,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was a nice dunk too, actually dun reverse

1295
01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:02,760
Speaker 1: three sixty yep, the little Vince Carter, but didn't look

1296
01:01:02,800 --> 01:01:03,880
Speaker 1: as cool and you couldn't see it.

1297
01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:07,160
Speaker 3: No, it was the presentation was a little lackluster.

1298
01:01:07,400 --> 01:01:11,240
Speaker 4: Anyone else, You guys got it. They all sort of

1299
01:01:11,240 --> 01:01:13,920
Speaker 4: come back to guys who've done both of them. Like

1300
01:01:14,160 --> 01:01:17,400
Speaker 4: somebody threw in here at Terrence Ross, gnacious Roberto.

1301
01:01:17,600 --> 01:01:19,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's good, he got it.

1302
01:01:19,200 --> 01:01:20,160
Speaker 4: He used to get out back.

1303
01:01:20,040 --> 01:01:20,400
Speaker 1: In his day.

1304
01:01:20,640 --> 01:01:23,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, but now he's an old thirty two year old

1305
01:01:23,760 --> 01:01:27,000
Speaker 4: Terrence Ross. But yeah, you guys, you guys banged them all.

1306
01:01:27,040 --> 01:01:27,480

01:01:57,480 --> 01:01:59,480

1319
01:01:59,720 --> 01:02:04,760
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I've been slacking out buying boots. Man, I've thinking.

01:03:05,200 --> 01:03:10,280
Speaker 3: stock XO pair three acts. It already all right, We

1345
01:03:10,280 --> 01:03:11,880

1347
01:03:13,240 --> 01:03:14,400
Speaker 1: In the night. Don't go anywhere.

1348
01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:19,200
Speaker 3: So Cooper, who lives in Salt Lake City or at

1349
01:03:19,280 --> 01:03:22,480
Speaker 3: least in the area, says, coming from someone here, you

1350
01:03:22,560 --> 01:03:26,439
Speaker 3: can get by without boots. And he said it did

1351
01:03:26,440 --> 01:03:28,600
Speaker 3: snow a little today, but it will all be melted

1352
01:03:29,120 --> 01:03:29,760
Speaker 3: by Friday.

1353
01:03:29,960 --> 01:03:32,720
Speaker 1: What about Thursday. We're there on Thursday. I need boots

1354
01:03:32,720 --> 01:03:36,280
Speaker 1: for eight hours. That's good to hear.

1355
01:03:36,640 --> 01:03:39,040
Speaker 3: And Sep B was wondering, well the live show be

1356
01:03:39,080 --> 01:03:42,520
Speaker 3: recorded and posted. These balloons are hindering my ability to

1357
01:03:42,560 --> 01:03:46,800
Speaker 3: travel to Utah. It will be recorded and posted as

1358
01:03:46,800 --> 01:03:51,120
Speaker 3: a podcast. It will not be on YouTube because it's

1359
01:03:51,200 --> 01:03:56,000
Speaker 3: just too much work. So you'll have to just listen

1360
01:03:56,040 --> 01:03:57,360
Speaker 3: to the podcast if you want to hear us. Do

1361
01:03:57,400 --> 01:04:00,440
Speaker 3: the live show on Friday night. But good question. Okay,

1362
01:04:00,600 --> 01:04:04,160
Speaker 3: pick the results. Last night it was that Nets Knicks

1363
01:04:04,200 --> 01:04:07,480
Speaker 3: game New York was favorited by two and a half points.

1364
01:04:08,000 --> 01:04:10,120
Speaker 3: They covered easily. It was close to It was back

1365
01:04:10,160 --> 01:04:11,640
Speaker 3: and forth for a while and they blew it open.

1366
01:04:12,080 --> 01:04:14,439
Speaker 3: Good win for me and Trey. We improved a four

1367
01:04:14,440 --> 01:04:18,600
Speaker 3: and five Cass took bl and you're five and four.

1368
01:04:18,680 --> 01:04:19,880
Speaker 3: So we're bunched up here.

1369
01:04:19,760 --> 01:04:22,840
Speaker 4: In February four, game night in the Association. This evening,

1370
01:04:22,840 --> 01:04:27,120
Speaker 4: there's a TNT doubleheader. Unfortunately that first one has lost

1371
01:04:27,120 --> 01:04:31,480
Speaker 4: some of the luster. Celtics Bucks, the Jays are out,

1372
01:04:31,720 --> 01:04:36,320
Speaker 4: Jalen Brown face Jason Tatum a non COVID illness I

1373
01:04:36,320 --> 01:04:39,360
Speaker 4: do believe is keeping him out. So didn't go with

1374
01:04:39,400 --> 01:04:42,040
Speaker 4: that one. The Warriors Clippers no steph as the second

1375
01:04:42,120 --> 01:04:45,760
Speaker 4: part of that back to or doubleheader. Can't go with

1376
01:04:45,800 --> 01:04:49,360
Speaker 4: that one. There's actually five games, So the Wizards Blazers

1377
01:04:49,360 --> 01:04:52,040
Speaker 4: slipped right by me, just like the Magic Meat Raptors

1378
01:04:52,600 --> 01:04:54,440
Speaker 4: slipped right by me. So the game of the night

1379
01:04:54,480 --> 01:04:57,560
Speaker 4: is the King Sons. Let's go to Phoenix where Phoenix

1380
01:04:57,640 --> 01:05:00,160
Speaker 4: is the two and a half point favorite.

1381
01:05:00,720 --> 01:05:03,720
Speaker 1: Kevin Durandy is not playing, Is that correct? Yeah, he's

1382
01:05:03,760 --> 01:05:06,440
Speaker 1: coming back Thursday. Is that the ideat So they were saying, is.

1383
01:05:06,400 --> 01:05:09,240
Speaker 4: He doing Oh, I don't know after they all star break.

1384
01:05:10,240 --> 01:05:13,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know why I said that. Never mind,

1385
01:05:13,880 --> 01:05:15,360
Speaker 3: no KDI at least for tonight.

1386
01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:19,720
Speaker 4: Here we go Phoenix Sacramento should be a great one.

1387
01:05:20,200 --> 01:05:22,760
Speaker 4: Trey thinks Phoenix will take care of business at home.

1388
01:05:22,840 --> 01:05:24,440
Speaker 4: They're favored by two and a half, so they get

1389
01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:26,800
Speaker 4: one by three or more. Will Skeetzinel will take those

1390
01:05:26,840 --> 01:05:30,280
Speaker 4: two points. I think it'll be at least a close one,

1391
01:05:30,560 --> 01:05:32,760
Speaker 4: very very very very close.

1392
01:05:33,760 --> 01:05:37,240
Speaker 1: Quite close. Hopefully these Phoenix Suns are well rested. They

1393
01:05:37,280 --> 01:05:39,320
Speaker 1: haven't played in four days, but it is the task

1394
01:05:39,400 --> 01:05:43,080
Speaker 1: melis trap game, first game home after a long long

1395
01:05:43,240 --> 01:05:45,080
Speaker 1: road trip to four days matter. We shall see.

1396
01:05:45,160 --> 01:05:47,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's why I stayed away from it because Phoenix

1397
01:05:47,120 --> 01:05:49,040
Speaker 4: was on a trip. They did finish four and one

1398
01:05:49,080 --> 01:05:52,080
Speaker 4: on that trip. They do feel good, I'm sure after

1399
01:05:52,120 --> 01:05:55,040
Speaker 4: coming home and there are two games behind Sacramento for

1400
01:05:55,080 --> 01:05:55,800
Speaker 4: that third seed.

1401
01:05:56,240 --> 01:05:59,800
Speaker 3: It's a battle, yes, And just to make it very clear,

1402
01:06:00,080 --> 01:06:02,440
