WEBVTT - Peanut Butter Jelly Time 0:00:00.800 --> 0:00:03.560 On this episode of This League, we get into how 0:00:03.600 --> 0:00:07.280 Shaq found the worst time to possibly criticize Donovan Mitchell, 0:00:07.800 --> 0:00:11.480 why taking a man's locker is the ultimate sign of disrespect. 0:00:11.960 --> 0:00:15.880 I cracked Kyrie Irving's eyeg emoji code, folks. And we 0:00:16.000 --> 0:00:20.200 also have a cool interview with Sam Smndiari and Andy Lou. 0:00:20.360 --> 0:00:24.360 They're both Warriors insiders about the drama going into Golden State. 0:00:24.600 --> 0:00:27.520 We also read some of my dms, so, without further ado, 0:00:27.800 --> 0:00:32.159 I always thought Donovan Mitchell was smart, the kind of 0:00:32.159 --> 0:00:37.000 guy who seems to think things through. You don't come 0:00:37.000 --> 0:00:38.840 to Donovan Mitchell if you're looking for a hot take, 0:00:39.280 --> 0:00:45.279 You just don't until fucking now, until right now. Do 0:00:45.360 --> 0:00:49.240 you know, Marty, what is required for a PB and 0:00:49.400 --> 0:00:50.199 J sandwich? 0:00:50.680 --> 0:00:52.279 I mean, self explained it right. 0:00:52.560 --> 0:00:59.760 Yeah, Bread, peanut butter, jelly even five year olds, No, 0:01:00.040 --> 0:01:02.720 it's in a PB and J doesn't matter. The jelly 0:01:02.960 --> 0:01:05.440 doesn't matter. If you have crunchy or creamy peanut butter, 0:01:05.560 --> 0:01:09.600 chibata or wonderbread. Those are the three things. That's it. 0:01:11.080 --> 0:01:15.600 I thought the world knew that, but apparently not Donovan Mitchell. 0:01:16.400 --> 0:01:17.800 Wait what are we talking about? 0:01:18.520 --> 0:01:21.119 Apparently Donovan Mitchell just got on Twitter and sounded off 0:01:21.160 --> 0:01:25.440 on what is the perfect ratio between peeb and jelly 0:01:25.520 --> 0:01:31.600 on a PB and sandwich? Zero? This is what he says. 0:01:31.959 --> 0:01:33.039 Oh I did see this. 0:01:33.440 --> 0:01:36.400 Yes, he said zero. 0:01:36.319 --> 0:01:38.400 Percent peanut butter, one hundred percent. 0:01:38.280 --> 0:01:41.399 Jelly, zero percent peanut butter. 0:01:43.000 --> 0:01:43.559 That's whack. 0:01:44.880 --> 0:01:49.960 Listen. I get some people don't like peanut butter, but 0:01:50.040 --> 0:01:53.160 if that's you, you don't get an opinion on PB 0:01:53.240 --> 0:01:57.320 and J talk. If you don't like peanut butter, you 0:01:57.480 --> 0:02:02.200 don't get an opinion on said topic. No, Shot, you 0:02:02.240 --> 0:02:05.480 don't like one third of the ingredients, So what are 0:02:05.480 --> 0:02:09.040 we doing. That's like saying you like tacos, but you 0:02:09.080 --> 0:02:13.200 don't like taco shells, Like that's not a taco, So 0:02:14.240 --> 0:02:18.360 no Taco Tuesday for you. So, Spider, you just don't 0:02:18.480 --> 0:02:22.160 like PEB and j That's just it. You can't have 0:02:22.360 --> 0:02:27.839 just jelly. That's just the case. But right now it's 0:02:27.840 --> 0:02:30.280 funny because he's posting all this, and this is right 0:02:30.320 --> 0:02:35.160 now probably the least controversial Donovan Mitchell take out there, 0:02:35.919 --> 0:02:39.440 because the Spider and Mitchell takes are flying around. Boy, 0:02:41.800 --> 0:02:44.560 and my problem, I've been watching Donovan Mitchell a long time. 0:02:44.600 --> 0:02:48.280 My problem is not the take, it's the timing of 0:02:48.320 --> 0:02:52.120 the take. And boy, oh boy, was the timing of 0:02:52.240 --> 0:02:55.080 this take bad. So this is what happened, Donovan Mitchell. 0:02:55.120 --> 0:02:55.880 Did you watch the game? 0:02:56.120 --> 0:02:56.360 I did? 0:02:56.440 --> 0:02:59.160 Yeah, donovd Mitchell balling out twenty one points in the 0:02:59.240 --> 0:03:02.880 first half alone. They're on a seven game win streak. 0:03:03.000 --> 0:03:08.840 They're rolling right halftime check Chuck Kenny. Even fucking little 0:03:08.840 --> 0:03:11.359 EJ came in with his little SHIV at the end, 0:03:12.400 --> 0:03:16.280 and the TNT guys decided today is the day we 0:03:16.320 --> 0:03:20.200 are gonna finally go after Donovan Mitchell. 0:03:21.000 --> 0:03:24.760 Is that the point of superstardom where he can take 0:03:24.800 --> 0:03:28.440 you there? Or he's still all star status? 0:03:30.639 --> 0:03:34.280 He needs to be second or third option? 0:03:34.520 --> 0:03:34.800 Really? 0:03:35.000 --> 0:03:35.520 Yeah? 0:03:35.600 --> 0:03:39.360 See yeah here he has enough talent to do it. 0:03:39.440 --> 0:03:41.480 But what holds him? 0:03:41.480 --> 0:03:46.240 Because see, I'm I'm seeing what I'm seeing I will 0:03:46.320 --> 0:03:50.480 and I'm seeing he's overpowering people what a superstar is? 0:03:50.560 --> 0:03:51.240 Okay? 0:03:52.880 --> 0:03:56.280 And then after the game, Shack decides that in the 0:03:56.320 --> 0:04:01.520 postgame interview he's going to confess Donovan Mitchell about the 0:04:01.560 --> 0:04:04.080 shit that he said earlier. First of all, let me 0:04:04.120 --> 0:04:06.600 just say this, when someone tells you and they preface 0:04:06.640 --> 0:04:08.960 what they're about to say by saying you're you're one 0:04:09.000 --> 0:04:13.520 of my favorite players to watch. Something's coming. Yeah, you know, Donovan, 0:04:13.600 --> 0:04:15.920 I love you, You're one of my favorite players to watch. 0:04:16.720 --> 0:04:21.320 But I just don't think you have it. Spiders shit 0:04:21.360 --> 0:04:25.600 have been like what is this right now? We're on 0:04:25.640 --> 0:04:28.640 a seven game win streak, I'm on a heater. You're 0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:34.520 trashing me eight seconds after I win the game about 0:04:34.520 --> 0:04:39.760 how I can never perform. Can I grab a gatorade 0:04:39.760 --> 0:04:41.040 before you comfort. 0:04:40.640 --> 0:04:41.039 Me or what? 0:04:43.080 --> 0:04:44.240 Yeah? It was pretty tough luck. 0:04:44.680 --> 0:04:47.000 It was cringe too. You saw that Donovan Mitchell and 0:04:47.080 --> 0:04:49.960 Shack said, oh, Donovan, you're one of my favorite players. 0:04:50.000 --> 0:04:53.480 You see on the video he's smiling like, oh man, 0:04:53.560 --> 0:04:55.280 one of the great says I'm gonna win. I'm one 0:04:55.279 --> 0:04:58.800 of his favorite players, and then his smile erase is 0:04:58.920 --> 0:05:04.520 like that, man, the timing is bad, But to me, 0:05:05.400 --> 0:05:08.880 the take is not. This is exactly what I've been 0:05:08.920 --> 0:05:12.000 saying for a year. Donovan Mitchell is not going to 0:05:12.040 --> 0:05:15.440 be someone that you can rely on in high leverage moments. 0:05:16.960 --> 0:05:19.200 The only thing that really matters in the NBA is 0:05:19.240 --> 0:05:22.960 the playoffs. The regular season is meaningless. It's cute, it's fun. 0:05:23.080 --> 0:05:26.160 We all love watching it. It's exciting. But if you 0:05:26.200 --> 0:05:29.159 want to assess someone's ceiling, it's the playoffs and only 0:05:29.200 --> 0:05:29.719 the playoffs. 0:05:29.760 --> 0:05:32.720 Do you agree with that, Marty, Oh sure, definitely. When 0:05:32.720 --> 0:05:35.320 you talk about you know what all a player has 0:05:35.360 --> 0:05:38.279 in him and everything that adds up, Yeah, it's the playoffs. 0:05:38.320 --> 0:05:42.559 It's it end all, be all, and so no matter 0:05:42.600 --> 0:05:45.200 how good Donovan Mitchell is, because he's very good. Again, 0:05:45.360 --> 0:05:48.320 he's one of my favorite players to watch. I also, 0:05:48.800 --> 0:05:51.920 I too love Donovan Mitchell. He can score in bunches, 0:05:52.160 --> 0:05:55.280 he's explosive, he's got skills, he's job dropping, all those 0:05:55.320 --> 0:05:57.640 things we know are all those things. But when he 0:05:57.760 --> 0:06:03.560 goes cold, oh my god, does he go cold for days. 0:06:03.920 --> 0:06:08.120 He could go three four games at a time just bricks. 0:06:08.240 --> 0:06:09.120 Yeah, just disappear. 0:06:09.680 --> 0:06:12.600 And you're like, he knows it too. What's colder? You 0:06:12.640 --> 0:06:16.240 know that? That? Like, hey, let's say what's colder? Him 0:06:16.320 --> 0:06:22.120 being cold, ice cold? That's Donovan Mitchell. That is Donovan Mitchell. 0:06:22.200 --> 0:06:26.240 It is gross to watch. He is one of the 0:06:26.279 --> 0:06:28.680 worst people to watch on a cold streak because he 0:06:28.720 --> 0:06:31.919 doesn't do anything else. It's not like he's Russell Westbrook 0:06:31.920 --> 0:06:33.880 where he's like, oh wow, he got that rebound and 0:06:33.880 --> 0:06:36.560 he blocks someone just stolen the ball. No, No, he's 0:06:36.640 --> 0:06:38.799 legitimately doing nothing. 0:06:38.960 --> 0:06:40.760 Yeah, becomes a complete negative. 0:06:40.560 --> 0:06:46.359 Completeleete liability. So no shot to Donovan Mitchell as a human. 0:06:46.360 --> 0:06:49.080 I've interviewed him a few times. He's a great guy. 0:06:49.920 --> 0:06:54.640 I would never speak to someone like that like Shaq 0:06:54.720 --> 0:06:57.919 did Donovan Mitchell right after he goes off. That was 0:06:57.960 --> 0:07:03.520 some gall Who is he capable? Is Donovan Mitchell capable 0:07:03.560 --> 0:07:08.400 of doing more? No? I said maybe when I thought 0:07:08.400 --> 0:07:10.640 of it to myself, But right now the answer is no. 0:07:12.320 --> 0:07:14.280 The problem though, is that he's also on a team 0:07:14.320 --> 0:07:18.200 of guys who also disappear. Rudy Gobert can go away 0:07:18.200 --> 0:07:21.640 for stretches, Mike Conley can go away for stretches. So 0:07:21.680 --> 0:07:24.200 you can't have three guys on a team that can 0:07:24.240 --> 0:07:27.280 go away for stretches and actually be built for the playoffs. 0:07:27.520 --> 0:07:30.560 There's no way. That's why they got bounced out of 0:07:30.600 --> 0:07:33.120 the first round last year, were they were up three 0:07:33.120 --> 0:07:35.560 to one on Denver right and then. 0:07:36.400 --> 0:07:37.840 Just just stopped. 0:07:38.000 --> 0:07:40.760 Yeah, stopped. It was just like the true hur that 0:07:40.960 --> 0:07:44.400 was that. So yeah, the thing that I think that 0:07:44.440 --> 0:07:48.120 the haters or the trolls or whatever listeners. Fans Donovan 0:07:48.160 --> 0:07:51.320 Mitchell fans will say, get it confused, This is not 0:07:52.240 --> 0:07:54.920 This is not to say he's not good. Every player 0:07:54.920 --> 0:07:57.680 in the NBA is good. He is elite. He is 0:07:57.720 --> 0:08:00.480 an All Star, which means he is elite of the elite, 0:08:00.560 --> 0:08:04.840 another echelon. What we're wondering is whether he could do 0:08:04.880 --> 0:08:07.480 anything else besides score the basketball, put the ball in 0:08:07.520 --> 0:08:11.480 the hoop to elevate his team. Statistically, we know because 0:08:12.200 --> 0:08:17.000 Ernie said it in the in the halftime, which we 0:08:17.080 --> 0:08:20.200 didn't play, but he said, Donovan, by the way, before 0:08:20.240 --> 0:08:23.600 we go, Donovan Mitchell's only had one double digit rebounding 0:08:23.600 --> 0:08:28.600 game in his entire career. So statistically we know Donovan 0:08:28.600 --> 0:08:33.520 Mitchell cannot do that. That's a crazy staff and that's 0:08:33.559 --> 0:08:37.440 what's necessary to win a championship. You asked Damian Lillard, 0:08:37.520 --> 0:08:40.160 You ask Chris Paul, You ask Steph Curry. When they 0:08:40.200 --> 0:08:43.760 go cold, they all try to do something else, facilitate, play, 0:08:43.760 --> 0:08:44.480 make et cetera. 0:08:44.960 --> 0:08:46.920 Yeah, really, step Steph will come out of nowhere and 0:08:46.960 --> 0:08:48.880 have like a really good rebounding game every now. Yeah, 0:08:48.960 --> 0:08:50.000 that is funny about his game. 0:08:50.120 --> 0:08:52.920 Sometimes Steph will lead the team in rebounds when he's 0:08:53.000 --> 0:08:55.520 ice cold. He did that, not that not too long ago. 0:08:55.760 --> 0:08:58.440 You have to affect the game when the shots not falling, 0:08:59.040 --> 0:09:02.600 or you're not gonna win in the playoffs. And the 0:09:02.640 --> 0:09:06.319 truth is, when Spider is ice cold, he can't buy 0:09:06.360 --> 0:09:11.720 a bucket. He is a liability even if that take 0:09:11.800 --> 0:09:18.040 comes at the wrong time. That is the facts.

I tell you what, 0:09:44.240 --> 0:09:46.760 I've got a guy that I'm dating and I don't 0:09:46.800 --> 0:09:52.200 mess around. I want him to be perfectly groomed. So 0:09:53.040 --> 0:09:55.840 until I found out about Manscaped, I would make him 0:09:55.880 --> 0:10:00.199 go get waxed. That's for real, and it's it's a 0:10:00.240 --> 0:10:04.079 terrifying experience for a man to have to go under 0:10:04.120 --> 0:10:06.160 I guess it's not under the knife, but it's under 0:10:06.800 --> 0:10:11.040 the wax balls, under the balls wax balls. So anyway, 0:10:11.080 --> 0:10:14.920 what I ended up doing was just getting him manscaped instead, 0:10:15.000 --> 0:10:16.840 So now he doesn't have to go to the groomer 0:10:17.920 --> 0:10:20.240 and now he can take care of it all by himself. 0:10:21.000 --> 0:10:25.319 That's why Manscape has redesigned the electric trimmer. The Manscaped 0:10:25.360 --> 0:10:29.920 engineering team has spent eighteen months perfecting the greatest ball 0:10:29.960 --> 0:10:34.079 hair trimmer ever created, called the Lawnmower three point zero, 0:10:34.320 --> 0:10:38.400 much better than the typical other competitors that he used 0:10:38.400 --> 0:10:40.480 in the past, which led him to go to the 0:10:40.480 --> 0:10:44.640 groomer and the wax technician to begin with. So their 0:10:44.720 --> 0:10:48.840 third generation trimmer features a cutting edge ceramic blade to 0:10:48.880 --> 0:10:53.640 reduce grooming accidents thanks to advanced skin safe technology pioneered 0:10:53.679 --> 0:10:56.679 by Manscape.

Handle your business boys, Handle it something. Something 0:12:17.360 --> 0:12:19.240 is going on in the water in Cleveland. 0:12:20.640 --> 0:12:23.320 Uh, what do you mean, like like Lake Erie catching 0:12:23.360 --> 0:12:24.160 fire or something? 0:12:25.440 --> 0:12:28.920 I know that's that's good choke though. What I mean 0:12:29.080 --> 0:12:34.120 is there's something going on in the Cleveland Cavaliers' locker room. 0:12:34.840 --> 0:12:38.679 Because there are two events, two confrontations that have happened 0:12:40.160 --> 0:12:44.640 on one out of thirty teams, and both of those 0:12:44.720 --> 0:12:48.360 incidents have ended in a food fight. No, excuse me, 0:12:48.559 --> 0:12:52.240 food assault actually, because a food fight really implies that 0:12:52.360 --> 0:12:54.880 like everyone's doing it, that I throw at you, you 0:12:54.920 --> 0:12:58.000 throw at me. No, this is one guy taking a 0:12:58.040 --> 0:13:05.040 hot bowl of soup and it's like burn yourself. I 0:13:05.080 --> 0:13:09.000 would say this is unusual, not only just the fact 0:13:09.000 --> 0:13:13.040 that it's happening on this team or professional sports, but 0:13:13.120 --> 0:13:16.839 it is unusual as a method of conflict resolution as 0:13:16.880 --> 0:13:20.720 a whole. Have you ever seen anyone throw food? 0:13:20.920 --> 0:13:24.240 Throw food? I feel like no. I may be able 0:13:24.240 --> 0:13:26.199 to like deep dive and think of something, but my 0:13:27.200 --> 0:13:28.320 initial answers. 0:13:28.040 --> 0:13:31.440 No, I've never seen it. I've never personally done it. 0:13:32.480 --> 0:13:35.920 I think my mom threw tomato juice at me one 0:13:35.960 --> 0:13:40.200 time because I wouldn't return a library book. I was 0:13:40.240 --> 0:13:41.400 like sixteen seventeen. 0:13:41.679 --> 0:13:43.199 It was brutal reaction. 0:13:43.360 --> 0:13:47.679 It was a big time overreaction. But we have a 0:13:47.800 --> 0:13:51.960 pattern of food assaults now in the Cleveland Cavaliers locker room. 0:13:52.679 --> 0:13:58.319 Let me explain the Calves, as most folks know, are 0:13:58.360 --> 0:14:02.040 an irrelevant franchise history, speaking outside of when Lebron was there, 0:14:03.880 --> 0:14:08.440 and there are things that the organization does that tells 0:14:08.480 --> 0:14:11.840 you that things aren't exactly a well oiled machine. There. 0:14:14.280 --> 0:14:17.120 I could go into many, but I won't bore you 0:14:17.200 --> 0:14:19.760 with the details because there are a lot. But they're 0:14:19.760 --> 0:14:23.240 trying to turn a new leaf. You know, they still 0:14:23.880 --> 0:14:26.120 the problem is that they still have when you turn 0:14:26.160 --> 0:14:29.960 a new leaf, you still have vestiges of that old 0:14:30.120 --> 0:14:33.360 mentality and that old way of thinking they hang around. 0:14:34.720 --> 0:14:37.360 There are guys who are still hanging around who shouldn't 0:14:37.400 --> 0:14:41.840 be there. Let me introduce you now in our plot 0:14:42.080 --> 0:14:46.520 to Kevin Porter Junior, the protagonist of this Greek food tragedy. 0:14:48.320 --> 0:14:51.400 So okay, So the Calves went all in on Kevin 0:14:51.400 --> 0:14:56.120 Porter Junior in twenty nineteen. They paid a lot, I 0:14:56.160 --> 0:14:59.560 feel like to draft him, Marty. How much did they pay? 0:14:59.680 --> 0:15:02.200 Yeah, it was more than people really remember. So they 0:15:02.320 --> 0:15:06.000 traded up to thirty same spot Jimmy Butler was taken 0:15:06.160 --> 0:15:11.360 just fyi, and they sent four second rounders and five 0:15:11.440 --> 0:15:13.600 million cash to go snag him. 0:15:13.920 --> 0:15:15.920 I feel like that's a guy that can't miss. Then, 0:15:16.080 --> 0:15:17.920 when you pay that much for him. 0:15:18.520 --> 0:15:21.920 I mean, yeah, you'd like him to be on your 0:15:21.920 --> 0:15:22.760 team longer than a year. 0:15:22.880 --> 0:15:29.000 You would like that in reality, though we knew prior, 0:15:29.160 --> 0:15:32.160 anyone who was deep diving knew that Kevin Porter Junior 0:15:33.640 --> 0:15:37.000 was a risk. He had more red flags than John 0:15:37.040 --> 0:15:43.560 Wall's bandana drawer. And that's a blood joke, Marty. I 0:15:43.560 --> 0:15:47.680 got it, I got it, so many question marks heading 0:15:47.720 --> 0:15:52.520 into the draft. He got suspended for personal conduct reasons. 0:15:53.240 --> 0:15:56.120 He's I mean, he's a top ten talent, they said, 0:15:56.840 --> 0:15:59.680 but you knew that it was a flyer, and a 0:15:59.720 --> 0:16:04.560 bunch teams passed on him. When when James Dolan of 0:16:04.640 --> 0:16:09.840 the New York Knicks respectfully says, I pass That tells 0:16:09.880 --> 0:16:11.560 you pretty much all you need to know about a player. 0:16:12.520 --> 0:16:18.440 So enter Cleveland Cavalier. Kevin Porter Junior. Hasn't played many games, 0:16:18.520 --> 0:16:21.120 didn't play really a lot last year, taking a pause 0:16:21.160 --> 0:16:25.000 this year for some personal reasons. Hasn't been around the squad. 0:16:25.960 --> 0:16:30.520 And then something interesting happened. They started winning games sex Land, 0:16:31.040 --> 0:16:36.360 remember sex Land, and Andre Drummond is balling out, and 0:16:36.400 --> 0:16:39.520 they made a couple of trades. They got this guy, 0:16:39.600 --> 0:16:42.640 Torrian Prince to come in and fill the shoes of 0:16:42.680 --> 0:16:49.080 a wing god, cheered Allen. And that is when, right 0:16:49.160 --> 0:16:54.320 at that moment, Kevin Porter Junior decided I would like 0:16:54.400 --> 0:16:57.840 to come back to the team too. The problem is 0:16:57.960 --> 0:17:01.680 those guys, those new players, they needed a place, like 0:17:01.720 --> 0:17:06.840 all players do, to store their belongings. That place just 0:17:06.960 --> 0:17:10.399 happened to be where Kevin Porter Junior was storing his 0:17:13.400 --> 0:17:18.959 And that wasn't anyone's fault, really, It was JB. Bickerstaff saying, Yo, 0:17:19.040 --> 0:17:21.560 take this locker. This guy's not using it. This is 0:17:21.600 --> 0:17:23.960 your locker now. I don't know who moved his stuff. 0:17:24.119 --> 0:17:28.199 Someone did, and then Kevin Porter Junior returned back to 0:17:28.240 --> 0:17:36.000 the team and was like, Yo, where's my stuff? Uh, 0:17:36.040 --> 0:17:40.000 it's been moved. This this is now Torrian Prince's locker. 0:17:40.640 --> 0:17:45.240 Someone else's dirty draws and stinky sneakers was in his locker, 0:17:45.560 --> 0:17:49.520 and he had a normal, logical adult reaction. He lost 0:17:49.520 --> 0:17:54.639 his goddamn mind on Torrian Prince, this innocent bystander, trying 0:17:54.680 --> 0:17:56.919 to fit in with this new teammates, just doing what 0:17:56.960 --> 0:18:00.000 the coaches says, and all of a sudden, his new team, 0:18:00.240 --> 0:18:03.600 he's like, just been there a few days, there's already 0:18:04.160 --> 0:18:10.040 a physical altercation popping off. You think he saw Kevin 0:18:10.040 --> 0:18:12.280 Porter Junior's stuff and is in the locker and he's 0:18:12.320 --> 0:18:17.320 like this is my locker now punk? No, like come 0:18:17.359 --> 0:18:22.600 on now, it was done by the organization. But Kevin 0:18:22.600 --> 0:18:26.480 Porter Jr. He took that shit really personal, like very personal. 0:18:26.880 --> 0:18:29.840 His locker was jacked and is it fair that he 0:18:29.920 --> 0:18:33.800 lost his mind again? The TNT boy sounded off on that. 0:18:33.880 --> 0:18:35.440 Apparently it's a big deal. 0:18:37.600 --> 0:18:38.560 That's that's respectful. 0:18:38.720 --> 0:18:40.240 I mean do that. I don't care if you're a 0:18:40.280 --> 0:18:43.280 first man twelve man, you can't move my locker it 0:18:43.320 --> 0:18:45.359 out without calling me and be like, hey, we're gonna 0:18:45.440 --> 0:18:47.280 move your stuff and move. 0:18:47.080 --> 0:18:47.800 It from one area. 0:18:47.800 --> 0:18:49.480 Then, first of all, there's personal things in there. 0:18:49.600 --> 0:18:50.240 Let's start there. 0:18:50.680 --> 0:18:55.280 Second, like that is the ultimate sign. There's three things. 0:18:55.280 --> 0:18:57.360 That's the signs of respect for players. 0:18:57.960 --> 0:19:01.440 Their area, you know, it is the area, their uniform number. 0:19:01.880 --> 0:19:03.320 Like all of a sudden you come in like, oh 0:19:03.320 --> 0:19:04.800 we gave you a number. The shock because we said, 0:19:04.800 --> 0:19:08.480 well whoa wait, like that would be disrespectful. 0:19:07.840 --> 0:19:15.160 So that I would say, those guys know best, and yeah, 0:19:15.240 --> 0:19:20.679 you're touching someone's belongings, they're underwear, they're weed, they're steroids. 0:19:20.680 --> 0:19:24.040 Who knows. The one thing that we know for sure. 0:19:23.920 --> 0:19:25.080 Is that dere Ayton show. 0:19:25.240 --> 0:19:29.760 Yes it is OK. No one wants other people's paws 0:19:29.840 --> 0:19:33.880 on their stuff. Calves came in and were like, you're 0:19:33.920 --> 0:19:39.320 over there now, Kevin, and Kevin was like food. You 0:19:39.359 --> 0:19:43.680 see this PEB and J sixty percent peanut butter, forty 0:19:43.720 --> 0:19:48.720 percent jelly, Like duck, this thing's coming your way fast. 0:19:48.920 --> 0:19:52.879 At least it wasn't. It was just a world class tantrum. 0:19:53.760 --> 0:19:58.440 Just compare and apparently there were some words exchanged to 0:19:59.040 --> 0:20:01.760 words that JB. Bickerstaff. I'm not sure if you saw this, 0:20:02.040 --> 0:20:04.720 but JB. Bickerstaff said that in all of his time 0:20:05.160 --> 0:20:07.320 the head coach, in all of his time in the NBA, 0:20:07.359 --> 0:20:13.119 he's never heard these words before. Huh. I don't know 0:20:13.160 --> 0:20:16.399 what those words could be, but he's been around the 0:20:16.480 --> 0:20:18.840 league in locker rooms for over twenty years. 0:20:18.920 --> 0:20:22.120 Right, that had to be impressively offensive language. 0:20:22.680 --> 0:20:26.200 Yep. You had to be saying some slurs and some 0:20:26.320 --> 0:20:32.399 curse words in a combination. That was creative. But the 0:20:32.440 --> 0:20:35.400 wildest thing is that this isn't even the first time 0:20:35.400 --> 0:20:38.399 that it's happened. You had food assault where there was 0:20:38.440 --> 0:20:41.280 a guy who took his hot tortilla soup. This is 0:20:41.320 --> 0:20:45.439 a real story. Hot tortilla soup first bowl out of 0:20:45.480 --> 0:20:47.960 the pot and he tossed it on his assistant coach, 0:20:48.359 --> 0:20:55.880 scalded him, didn't speak for months. Marty hit the audio, but. 0:20:55.840 --> 0:20:58.679 I want to know, Okay, did he throw the soup 0:20:58.840 --> 0:20:59.119 at you? 0:20:59.560 --> 0:21:02.720 Or did he throw the bowl along with the soup 0:21:03.200 --> 0:21:03.600 at you? 0:21:04.320 --> 0:21:06.560 Like, did he like pour the soup on you? Did 0:21:06.600 --> 0:21:08.000 he launch the bowl? Well? 0:21:09.119 --> 0:21:12.399 For a long time, I refused to talk about the 0:21:12.440 --> 0:21:13.160 soup incident. 0:21:13.240 --> 0:21:14.119 This is a safe space. 0:21:14.640 --> 0:21:17.480 Yeah, I mean, it's okay now because I've moved on. 0:21:18.160 --> 0:21:18.800 Me and j R. 0:21:19.240 --> 0:21:23.720 We talked about it, and you know, he apologized. But 0:21:24.040 --> 0:21:26.159 it was the bowl plus the super the bowl and 0:21:26.240 --> 0:21:28.919 the soup, and it was the first bowl out of 0:21:28.920 --> 0:21:29.280 the pot. 0:21:29.359 --> 0:21:32.640 So it was hot. Oh no, yes, oh no, very hot. 0:21:32.920 --> 0:21:36.080 How where did it get? You get the chest? He seated, 0:21:36.240 --> 0:21:38.760 went everywhere? No, I was standing up, Oh you're standing up, 0:21:38.920 --> 0:21:41.920 standing up? And it hit me and shoulder, arm, everywhere, 0:21:42.000 --> 0:21:45.320 It hit the wall, and I mean it was a mess. 0:21:47.160 --> 0:21:48.000 Left hand right. 0:21:49.520 --> 0:21:54.399 Wow. I remember that story like it was yesterday, and 0:21:54.440 --> 0:21:58.560 it still tickles me. It's it's very sad someone would 0:21:58.640 --> 0:22:01.600 rise to that level. But just soup. 0:22:01.920 --> 0:22:04.720 It's easy to forget about. Like and like, I love JR. 0:22:04.760 --> 0:22:07.040 And for some reason, I had just like erased this 0:22:07.119 --> 0:22:08.040 completely from my mind. 0:22:08.080 --> 0:22:09.040 But one of the. 0:22:08.920 --> 0:22:12.959 Weirder stories like of the last decade maybe like just 0:22:13.040 --> 0:22:14.919 in terms of just bizarre NBA. 0:22:14.760 --> 0:22:18.120 Stories, one hundred percent. And now you have Kevin Porter 0:22:18.200 --> 0:22:20.479 Junior doing the same exact thing. I don't think it 0:22:20.520 --> 0:22:26.399 was soup, but man, that experiment ended fast and it 0:22:26.520 --> 0:22:31.719 was expensive. Fifty games he played for the team, and 0:22:32.440 --> 0:22:36.000 food assault comes into play, and now the Calves are 0:22:36.119 --> 0:22:41.920 just struggling to find anyone who's willing to take him. 0:22:42.080 --> 0:22:45.000 Like imagine Marty, like, I call you up, You're the 0:22:45.600 --> 0:22:48.359 we'll call you the Suns GM okay, and I'm like 0:22:48.720 --> 0:22:52.919 ring ring ring ring, Oh good morning, Marty, and you're like, 0:22:53.200 --> 0:22:53.840 what do you say? 0:22:54.520 --> 0:22:54.639 Uh? 0:22:54.800 --> 0:22:56.120 How we doing Trista? What do you need? 0:22:56.359 --> 0:22:59.440 Yeah, hey, we've got a great a tremendous wing for you. 0:23:00.520 --> 0:23:03.720 Came from USC tremendous talent. We just have some a 0:23:03.760 --> 0:23:06.000 lot of depth on our team right now, so we 0:23:06.119 --> 0:23:10.840 need to get rid of some pieces. Great kid, really 0:23:10.880 --> 0:23:12.840 great arm Kevin Porter Junior. 0:23:13.600 --> 0:23:15.520 Oh right, yeah no, we were high on him in 0:23:15.560 --> 0:23:15.880 the draft. 0:23:15.920 --> 0:23:18.560 Yeah yeah, yeah, what would you guys be willing to 0:23:18.600 --> 0:23:19.240 trade for him? 0:23:20.000 --> 0:23:25.480 I'll throw in uh, I'll throw in Abdel and Madare Yeah, and. 0:23:25.440 --> 0:23:30.639 Then it's like click. So he ends up getting traded 0:23:30.720 --> 0:23:36.080 for this like top fifty five protected pick, which means 0:23:36.080 --> 0:23:38.520 that probably won't get anything for him. And you know 0:23:38.560 --> 0:23:42.040 where he ends up. Of course, he ends up in 0:23:42.119 --> 0:23:47.200 Houston slum lord Tillman for Titta's like, I'll take them, 0:23:48.280 --> 0:23:52.840 I'll take them for free. Yeah it's trash. I'll take 0:23:52.880 --> 0:23:55.959 that free couch off the side of the road. I 0:23:56.000 --> 0:23:58.440 have a room it can fit in. Yeah, I'll take 0:23:58.480 --> 0:24:03.880
