1 00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:22,960 Speaker 1: What's up, y'all? Welcome to No Fouls Given, presented by 2 00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:26,360 Speaker 1: Prize Picks of course on Big Wise, joined as always 3 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:30,000 Speaker 1: by the two NBA legends, Paul Pierce Danny Green. 4 00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:31,720 Speaker 2: What's going on, y'all? 5 00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:34,960 Speaker 1: Nothing much man. Coming off a solid week in the 6 00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:39,760 Speaker 1: NBA Action, definitely wanted to get right back into what's 7 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:41,800 Speaker 1: been probably the biggest story of the season is the 8 00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 1: emergence of victim women Yama. Two huge victories over the weekend. 9 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,559 Speaker 1: They beat the Rockets in the NBA Cup game. That 10 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:52,560 Speaker 1: one went down to the why I watched that from 11 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 1: start to finish, incredible game, and then they beat the Pelicans, 12 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 1: obviously not as good as Houston, but more importantly, d 13 00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 1: Aaron Fox came back. Yeah, and we'll get into darreon Fox. 14 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 1: But I think a lot of the shadow. 15 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's crazy, crazy. 16 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:16,040 Speaker 1: Excuse my part of my friends. 17 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 2: Yah, Jesus. 18 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 1: I think a lot of the chatter around the league. 19 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 1: And you know something I've been reading, like different outlets, 20 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 1: like writers that I messed with, media people, some of 21 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:30,320 Speaker 1: the player podcasts is like when he came out the 22 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 1: box dropping thirty, dropping twenty eight, you know, seemingly unstoppable, 23 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,559 Speaker 1: he's kind of come back down to earth, and people 24 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 1: are saying, as the league figured would be out. 25 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 4: Have they figured him out? He's You're not gonna be 26 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,680 Speaker 4: able to figure him out because he's always going to 27 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 4: have an effect on the game, whether he's scoring or not. Yes, 28 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 4: because like if he's in the paint, you're not going 29 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 4: into the paint. And defensively, the way he can just 30 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:58,559 Speaker 4: change it. Again, he's probably gonna win the next five 31 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 4: defensive Players of the Year if he's healthier, Like you 32 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 4: know what I'm saying, So like if you you can't 33 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 4: figure that out, and then if his offense is rolling, 34 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 4: and you gotta also say, listen, he's had different start 35 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 4: guys in and out of the lineups too, so you 36 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 4: know they had their chemistry at the beginning, but then 37 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 4: now when you start shuffling the guards in and out 38 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 4: of the lineup, it's hard for him to be consistent 39 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 4: because he has to get the ball in the spots. 40 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 2: So tough to figure out. 41 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 3: I agree, but I think they found something to slow 42 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 3: him down. Yeah, I want to say they figure out, 43 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 3: but only a matter of time before he he figures 44 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 3: out how to master this. You know what I'm saying, 45 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 3: like he's a guy, he's a kid that cares about 46 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 3: like getting better. Yeah, so he's gonna figure out how 47 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 3: to get the ball where he needs it, like in 48 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 3: the spots that he wants. And he's seven four. You 49 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,119 Speaker 3: can't block and shot, you know, you know what I'm saying. 50 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 3: So like figure, like Paul said, figuring him out and 51 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 3: you have block and shot. 52 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 5: Hope he misses. You can make a tough tough for him. 53 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 5: Hope he misses. 54 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:49,240 Speaker 3: But yeah, he's starting to come down to earth a 55 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 3: little bit because we see him as a defensive guy. 56 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 5: Mostly. 57 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,640 Speaker 3: Like him coming out scoring and averaging thirty was like, 58 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 3: you know, he could probably be win the best players 59 00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:57,519 Speaker 3: of all time. 60 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, continue that. Oh everything we he made us believe 61 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 5: that he was a scorer. He can score. 62 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 3: They'll have knights where he will score, but he's not 63 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 3: there yet to be like consistent score. If he becomes that, 64 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 3: he will be one of the best players of all time. 65 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,360 Speaker 3: But mostly he's a defensive player. He's skilled offensively and 66 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,919 Speaker 3: he can score, but realistically he's a guy to change 67 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 3: the game defensively and offensively. Just said, rebound put backs, 68 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 3: but knock down a three here and there, But it'll 69 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 3: open up the floor from more now that darreon Fox 70 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 3: is back, when they get Dylan Harper back and they 71 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 3: get you know, the whole team, whole Cornett, it'll open 72 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:33,119 Speaker 3: up the floor from But he has to figure out, 73 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 3: like how to attack these defense that throw on him 74 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 3: now differently, So he'll figure that out in it's only 75 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 3: amount of time. But this is him. I'm cool with 76 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 3: eighteen and eighteene. I mean, just a slow night for 77 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 3: him is a great night for anybody else. 78 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 1: You know, the idea that Wenby's been figured out and 79 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: the answer to the test is to put six foot 80 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 1: eight guys like rooming on him, Like I'm sorry, that's 81 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 1: not long term, like the idea that he's not going 82 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 1: to figure out how to consistently beat up on six 83 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 1: foot eight dudes, Like I don't care how rangy or 84 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 1: shifty these guys are. He's gonna eventually figure out how 85 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 1: to beat that. And I think what they've been doing 86 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 1: a better job is pushing him out further and further from. 87 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 3: The bast how to get his spot. Yeah, it's a rap. 88 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 3: And then once he also figured out how to manipulate 89 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 3: the game. But certain guys know how to get to 90 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 3: the free throw once you're not able to like, you're 91 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 3: not gonna just push him around. 92 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 4: I said this, and I said again, in case the 93 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 4: people didn't listen, I said it a year ago. Wemby 94 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 4: is the most talented player in the NBA right now, 95 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,719 Speaker 4: the most top to bottom most talented player. There's no 96 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 4: figuring that out. You can'd the most talented, don't. 97 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 1: He does random ship like what the Lakers did, and 98 00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 1: even with some of the rock what some of the 99 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,279 Speaker 1: Rockets were doing too, again was it was it's like 100 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: just basically giving them different looks, different in waves at 101 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 1: him to let him be not comfortable. And again it's 102 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 1: only his third year. He hasn't mastered every. 103 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 5: Single half the year last year, so it's like it's 104 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 5: really like exactly. 105 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 1: So I think I think he'll be fine. I think 106 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 1: it was big as Darren Fox coming back, because you know, 107 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 1: he dropped twenty four in the in the in his 108 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 1: season debut. He was a big part of what they 109 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 1: were doing. And crunch time. Again, it's the Pelicans, I 110 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,479 Speaker 1: get it, but they were in a close game and 111 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,039 Speaker 1: the aon Fox kind of settled it. 112 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 3: That matters, it's you matter who are you playing against them? 113 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 5: Crunch time? 114 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 3: You need somebody? Okay, see they were, you know, but 115 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 3: a lot of those games were crunch time. Yes, even 116 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 3: though they weren't teams that were great, considering they were 117 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 3: close games like it might have been Sacramento, might have 118 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 3: been Indiana, but they won those games down the stretch, 119 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 3: and that prepares you for the lung and they need that. 120 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,559 Speaker 3: You could tell even against the Lakers, they just didn't 121 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,359 Speaker 3: look yeah, composed, They didn't look like they were confident 122 00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 3: down the stream. 123 00:05:57,839 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 4: And watched them though seriously, because before I was on 124 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 4: the like, all right, maybe you could use the Fox 125 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 4: as a trade piece. 126 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 2: I'm not on that no more. 127 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,839 Speaker 4: I like his stability, brands and he could take some 128 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 4: scoring off. So it it made me look when I 129 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 4: looked at that stat line with all the players, how 130 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 4: they all everybody had a good game, Like everybody they 131 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 4: had like seven eight guys double. So I was looking like, damn, 132 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 4: is san Antonio contender? 133 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 3: Like only with him with you have to have Fox though, 134 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 3: like with another year or two before Dylan Harper. Yes's castle, 135 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 3: I'm saying, but you need him for the next you looking. 136 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 4: Like they got talent, they got probably an MVP candidate. 137 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 4: They got athleticism, they got guard play, they got depth, 138 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 4: and and I'm gonna get that young kid. 139 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,159 Speaker 2: He got coaching. When you come from the Pop tree, 140 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:49,720 Speaker 2: you coaching? 141 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 5: You you? You? Yeah? 142 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 1: He do? 143 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 5: You know what he's doing? 144 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,720 Speaker 1: What is the what is the Midge scouting report? If 145 00:06:57,760 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: you have one? 146 00:06:58,720 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 5: Like with how he coaches. 147 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:04,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm just assuming he's very similar. I mean, he's 148 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 3: doing it his own way. Got you, but it ain't different, bro, 149 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 3: pop and ours is still there. Yeah, it's just like 150 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 3: still in Miami. But you know, got you he learned 151 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 3: from it's a tree. 152 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 5: What's going on? 153 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, just to bring it back to the 154 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 1: weinby thing full circle. I just I have a hard 155 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: time believing that he's not gonna find ways to find 156 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 1: stuff in film, and you know, the coaching staff aren't 157 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 1: gonna like make a concerted effort to make sure. Because 158 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 1: even in the Laker game that he filed out, when 159 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 1: he was down the stretch, when he was getting the 160 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: ball at the elbow, it was just like, yeah, it's over. 161 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: He's going downhill and he's getting fouled and he's scoring. 162 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 2: He's dunking on people's head. 163 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 5: It's wonderable from the bas so. 164 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: It's just making a more concerted effort to not be 165 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 1: so you know, three point again dominant. 166 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 5: That's gonna take him. 167 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 3: He can do a little bit a little throughout the season, 168 00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 3: but there's not enough time from the work on that 169 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:00,679 Speaker 3: got you. He's gonna go with this this past summer. 170 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 3: He was gonna get better throughout the season. But you 171 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 3: better believe this this next summer instead of the showerling 172 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 3: with the monks and everything, he's gonna do some of 173 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 3: that too. But he's gonna be like, all right, how 174 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 3: do I get to my spots? How do I get 175 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 3: to the free throw line? How do I make sure, 176 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying, I don't get pushed away 177 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 3: from the basket. How do I operate against smaller guys. 178 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 3: I'm gonna play more against smaller guys. 179 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 2: It's just gonna be age. 180 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 4: As his body gets stronger, like we saw with Jannis, 181 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 4: Like you know what I'm saying, As he got stronger, 182 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 4: he got better. That's what's gonna happen with this kid. 183 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 4: Because he looks a little stronger this year. It looks 184 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,959 Speaker 4: a little better. The talent, Like I said, the talent 185 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 4: is there, the skills is there, Just like when you 186 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:37,839 Speaker 4: watch these kids come up and a you be like, 187 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 4: hes gonna be good when it gets stronger. All you 188 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 4: gotta do is get strong. And I'm seeing that in 189 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 4: the NBA certain guys they just need to get stronger. 190 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 2: And that's it. Like we ain't saying he gotta what 191 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 2: do we say he gotta work on? Yeah, you know 192 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 2: to come back and get this. 193 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,680 Speaker 4: He needs to jump shide superstars like if he could 194 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,080 Speaker 4: come back, and you just gotta get strong. 195 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 2: That's really that simple, and it's crazy close. 196 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 1: Ad KD has come up so many times in the 197 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:10,079 Speaker 1: Wenby conversations. Obviously they're different players, but very early on 198 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 1: in Kd's career was easy to deny him the ball 199 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 1: and keep them off of the spot. 200 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, the smaller guys. That was a smaller guy to 201 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 5: guard him. 202 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 1: Denying make it hard for him to catch, like crowd 203 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 1: them and he wouldn't sort of assert himself in his spot. 204 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 2: And then he got better at it. 205 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 1: Of course, MVPs and you know, all scoring titles and 206 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 1: all that stuff came after. So obviously I think that's 207 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 1: coming with Wenby. 208 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 4: This episode is brought to you by Prize Picks.

I mean again, it's early for everybody. 237 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:04,840 Speaker 1: Seven and two as of this recording. 238 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 3: People could say, you know, it's still very good. They 239 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:10,840 Speaker 3: can tell about strength to schedule. I'm trying to see 240 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,079 Speaker 3: who's in there in Indiana. It's a solid team, but 241 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 3: they're not fully. 242 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 1: Golden State didn't have Steph the other night. They blew 243 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 1: him out. 244 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 3: So the two losses that have Golden State went fully 245 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 3: healthy and I forget who else they lost to? 246 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:23,079 Speaker 2: Oh was it? 247 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:24,719 Speaker 3: Think it was like an unacceptable loss. I feel like 248 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 3: it was like somebody like Sacramento or something like. 249 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,559 Speaker 1: Yeah with somebody, let's pull that up. Who did they 250 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:32,439 Speaker 1: lose to this year? 251 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 5: Either way? 252 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 3: They yeah, they lost to Portly boom on. 253 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 1: The Portly got some big home wins. This yeh beat 254 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 1: Denver ended okay, see streak, So I looked it up 255 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 1: then before we came up here. Denver is the second 256 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 1: in net rating, basically less than a point from Okac's pace, which, 257 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: by the way, okay See doesn't have this second best 258 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:03,720 Speaker 1: player is still the best, which is crazy net rating 259 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 1: team in the NBA. They're still blowing teams out right now. 260 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:11,320 Speaker 1: Denver is second in defensive efficiency and they've got the 261 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 1: second rate the defense in the league right now. 262 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 3: And they haven't I feel like they still haven't reached 263 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 3: scratched the surf. 264 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 1: They're gonna They're gonna be smarter and better. 265 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:23,559 Speaker 3: I just feel like certain guys haven't even found the 266 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:27,840 Speaker 3: rhythm in system yet. Yeah, like Cam Johnson, once he 267 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 3: gets going against his rhythm, Tim Hardaway Jr. Like, once 268 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 3: those two guys get more comfortable reps with, it's gonna 269 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 3: be problem. 270 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:37,080 Speaker 5: It's gonna be a problem. 271 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 2: I like the way Jamal is looking. 272 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 3: But yes, they're they're to answer the question. They're the 273 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 3: team to me that can. 274 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:47,559 Speaker 1: Yeah, that can see that can do damage to okay See. 275 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 3: Give okay See, Like, are they the Are they the 276 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 3: team that can give okayc a run for their. 277 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 1: Money to the second best defense in the NBA. However, No, 278 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 1: I'm just saying, like just the fact that that that's 279 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 1: where they are nine games stretch, they can play like that, 280 00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 1: I think makes all the difference because to me, they 281 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 1: got the most consistent offense, but. 282 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 4: They got some they got some defensive talent over Yeah, 283 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 4: I mean you gotta look at like even they bench. 284 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:11,080 Speaker 2: When you look at. 285 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 4: Your man Pyton Washington Watson, you guy, he's a he's 286 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 4: a he's a defender out there, he's out there blocking shots, 287 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,199 Speaker 4: he's guarding all five positions. He's giving him some energy 288 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 4: off the bench. Now, guys like Bron Christian Brown, they 289 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 4: got there. You know what I'm saying. They got dogs, 290 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 4: So that's not surprised. Cam Johnson gives you versatility defense. 291 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 4: They have defensive guys, so it's not really surprising that. 292 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 4: And I think they can keep this up all season. 293 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,679 Speaker 4: Remember they're the only team that pushed Okay, see the seven. 294 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 3: Yes, I don't think they could be number two oh season, 295 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 3: but they could be top five. 296 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:48,320 Speaker 1: And that's what bro, And that's just crazy to think about. 297 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 1: One of the things that came up right now, teams 298 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:57,320 Speaker 1: are shooting from three against Denver. We know that's going 299 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 1: that's gonna go up. You know, they they've had some 300 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 1: great three point shooting luck. But like I'm sorry, the 301 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:07,560 Speaker 1: fundamentals are there for a solid defense and usually like 302 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 1: if you if Denver could get their defense to be 303 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:13,320 Speaker 1: in the top thirteen to twelve, because they're consistently in 304 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 1: the top three in offense, it's like, all right, that's 305 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 1: the that's the remedy. But to be playing like actually 306 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 1: good to great defense, this this is this is a 307 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 1: worrying developer. 308 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 3: A big part of their defense as we're missing as 309 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 3: the rebounding. Yeah, and the pickup of Jonas Valanciunas I think. 310 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 5: Helped you a lot. 311 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 3: So now that you could play it, you know, Aaron Gordon, 312 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:37,360 Speaker 3: Aaron Gordon was out, it was like they lost some 313 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 3: defense and rebounding. Yokah is only one by himself. Now 314 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 3: you got you can play them together or in that 315 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 3: second unity, you have a second guy. Last year the 316 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 3: second unit, who was DeAndre Jordan when it was that, Yeah, 317 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 3: it wasre It was DeAndre and Russ. Yeah, that was 318 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 3: the second unit. And not saying DeAndre is not a 319 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 3: solid big he's a little older. Yeah, but you got 320 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 3: a little younger. 321 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 1: When Zegnaji was playing five. 322 00:14:58,920 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 5: I barely seen him play. 323 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 1: It was tough. Those were tough minutes. Hell, DJ got 324 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:14,080 Speaker 1: taken the playoffs at back up five because he's experienced 325 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 1: some good quarters the Clippers. It was like experience. 326 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 2: We love DJ but god damn. 327 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 5: But then they like an extension. 328 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 6: Yeah, you know. 329 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 1: When Calvin was there, he had he just fall in 330 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 1: love with his draft picks, you know what I mean. 331 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 1: So any young guy that he brought, he's like, no, 332 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 1: we need to invest in him. Like that's about the work. Zeke, 333 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 1: not so much. Peyton Watson, you know, uh Brown, Like 334 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,160 Speaker 1: these guys have panned out in an amazing way. Zeke 335 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 1: hasn't really been. He could be another guy that was 336 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 1: getting taken the playoffs. He's having a little bit harder 337 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 1: time breaking the rotation with Bruce Brown and Tim Hardaway 338 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:58,960 Speaker 1: being in there. But I think, yeah, obviously we think 339 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 1: Denver is as formidable an opponent as as Okay, c 340 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: is gonna have me. 341 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 3: If it's not them, who else do you think could 342 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 3: give him? There's nobody else that I'm looking at. 343 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 2: Houston. 344 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 4: Please don't sleep on Houston.

We don't know that we could be 356 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 4: watching an all time player, like really like but like 357 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 4: get this team to the finals, and it's not like. 358 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 5: Derek ros Rondo that like years how they was going off. 359 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 5: He could go off. 360 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 3: And if he goes off as different than Rondo and Derek, 361 00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 3: like de Rose when y'all have them battles between Chicago. 362 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 3: For he's seven four, so he can control. 363 00:16:57,480 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 5: A whole game. 364 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 3: You can series goes on offensively and he's blocking shots defensively, 365 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 3: he could win you a whole series. 366 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 4: They got the number one. This is the thing in 367 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:09,119 Speaker 4: the West. The number one ingredient that I've seen in 368 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:11,719 Speaker 4: my history of playing in the league, watching the league, though, 369 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 4: number one ingredient to win a championship is you. 370 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 2: Got to have an MVP candidate. 371 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:22,159 Speaker 4: Like every champion has a m VP caliber player and 372 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,400 Speaker 4: weinby is that who in the Rockets? 373 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 3: I mean you can say have a collective. 374 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 5: To be MV. 375 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 4: Obviously Joker obviously, Luca Yeah, obviously a Greek freak. And 376 00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 4: then there's one more, Anthony Edwards. There's a number of 377 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 4: contenders when you have a top five MVP candidate and. 378 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 5: So nobody else you got just Yanna. 379 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:50,320 Speaker 4: So the East, I don't think nobody in the East 380 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:52,359 Speaker 4: can come out and win. Well, Donaldvan should be in 381 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 4: the MVP conversation. 382 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 1: Say that, and I think Brunton will be closed depending 383 00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 1: on how the next to But your point is taking 384 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 1: you need elite players and they. 385 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:02,400 Speaker 2: At least agree that one. 386 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, in order to compete at the very time.

Let's say you're 623 00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 1: in Charlotte and Atlanta's the next night. Are you guys 624 00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 1: rushing to get out of Charlotte to get to Atlanta. 625 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 4: Well, it depends because if we're we can coach can 626 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 4: be like, we're going to stay the night in Atlanta. 627 00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 4: So we would just wait after the game, since we 628 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 4: might if it's a back to back, because we might 629 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:55,600 Speaker 4: be off the next day. Because if it was back 630 00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 4: to back and we off the next day, we're gonna 631 00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 4: stay to night and just fly the next that God.

Like he's so dialed 811 00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:58,920 Speaker 1: in offensively, he's like you like you said, like he's 812 00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:01,399 Speaker 1: just roll out of betting get twenty points because he's 813 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:03,440 Speaker 1: just so damn good. 814 00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:06,360 Speaker 5: On seven feet, dominant, three hundred pounds. 815 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:08,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, like knows how to draw fouls, know how to 816 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:12,920 Speaker 1: do that. I wonder when Paul comes back, though, is 817 00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:15,440 Speaker 1: he gonna be fine with just being a role player. 818 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:17,759 Speaker 5: I think he knows what he's signed up for. 819 00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:21,920 Speaker 3: I think it also, how does it work when the 820 00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:24,319 Speaker 3: guy's making fifty million dollars and he comes in and 821 00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 3: it's just like, yo, be another. 822 00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:27,800 Speaker 5: Guy paying him for his resume. 823 00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:30,600 Speaker 1: Bro be another guy. 824 00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:35,400 Speaker 3: I hope it doesn't take away from edge Comb sure 825 00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 3: as And I think that's another thing that I want 826 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:40,280 Speaker 3: to say. They can stay afloat if he stays confident 827 00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:43,759 Speaker 3: and aggressive. I've seen last couple. He seems a little 828 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:47,200 Speaker 3: bit more passive tonight. You know, he didn't seem like 829 00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:49,200 Speaker 3: his aggressive self. He still takes some shots, but if 830 00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:51,200 Speaker 3: he can, they would have won tonight if he would 831 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:52,560 Speaker 3: have balled that, like if he balled like he know me, 832 00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:54,239 Speaker 3: he had eleven tonight. He's starting to slow down a 833 00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:56,239 Speaker 3: little bit. Yeah, but if he can still play like 834 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:59,040 Speaker 3: we know he's capable playing and Tyres, they can easily 835 00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:02,280 Speaker 3: stay afloat and hopefully when PG comes back it doesn't 836 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:06,400 Speaker 3: take away from his growth. Yeah, but yes, it's sustainable. 837 00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:09,000 Speaker 3: If though, if Tyree's and Edgecomb and you got Quin Grimes, 838 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:11,440 Speaker 3: you know we're gonna get from him. But if Edgecomb 839 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:15,000 Speaker 3: as a rookie continues to grow and play well, they 840 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:16,760 Speaker 3: can be you know, they sustaining. 841 00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:19,880 Speaker 4: Pg's value is gonna be kind of like what he 842 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 4: does in the playoffs. 843 00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:24,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think, yeah, like, all right, let these guys 844 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:26,360 Speaker 2: deveil up.

That's kind of crazy. 857 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that's forty eight from forty eight from three, 858 00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:08,040 Speaker 3: forty eight from the field. 859 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:09,040 Speaker 5: He's not crazy. 860 00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:10,680 Speaker 2: That's wherever you got on the court. 861 00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:14,160 Speaker 3: He making shots, yeah, and five rebounds the game, he's 862 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:17,960 Speaker 3: rebounding and eight assist the game, just a double as assist. 863 00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:25,600 Speaker 2: Well over the course of the season, the numbers will 864 00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:26,680 Speaker 2: come back, don't. 865 00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:29,399 Speaker 5: Come there like Joe comes back, comes back. 866 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:31,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's one of the best shooters in the NBA. 867 00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,560 Speaker 1: It's kind of crazy to be what he is on 868 00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:37,000 Speaker 1: the ball and still be that silky smooth with the 869 00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:41,680 Speaker 1: jump shot. It's just crazy. And Detroit the other side 870 00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:44,720 Speaker 1: of this man, Like I honestly came into the season 871 00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:47,760 Speaker 1: thinking they had an outside shot of crashing the Eastern 872 00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 1: Conference finals. Even potentially like, you know, having an upset 873 00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:56,480 Speaker 1: kind of Cinderella run to the NBA Finals. But I 874 00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:58,920 Speaker 1: think they've even surpassed my expectations. 875 00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:02,120 Speaker 3: It started off slow, but they've got they starting to 876 00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:05,319 Speaker 3: build momentum rhythm. Yeah, and that was a big winter 877 00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:08,880 Speaker 3: night in Philly. You know, without some guys, you know 878 00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:12,000 Speaker 3: they have a couple of guys out. Uh, but yeah, 879 00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:14,920 Speaker 3: kid two points in the first half, finished with twenty six, 880 00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:18,600 Speaker 3: twenty eight, whatever. It was big win, close in clutch time. 881 00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:21,560 Speaker 3: That's where I think down to stretch him. 882 00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:23,279 Speaker 1: He's so trustworthy with the. 883 00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:26,560 Speaker 3: Ball because that I think that Knick series helped him 884 00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:29,279 Speaker 3: to develop that, like be more poors. Just like being 885 00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:33,120 Speaker 3: in the playoffs first time there. He's showing his double team. 886 00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:35,400 Speaker 3: Come now, I'm cool, Like I ain't tripping, i ain't passing. 887 00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:38,400 Speaker 3: I'm gonna figure it out. Yeah, not only making players, 888 00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:40,439 Speaker 3: but getting big time baskets down to stretch for them 889 00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:41,240 Speaker 3: against Philly. 890 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:43,840 Speaker 1: Jalen Duran, who we were talking about before the show, 891 00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:47,760 Speaker 1: he's having just an incredible start to the season. 892 00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:49,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. 893 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:53,040 Speaker 1: The fact that they can just get that dunk and 894 00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:56,439 Speaker 1: Andre Drummond was so crazy. The fact that they could 895 00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:59,960 Speaker 1: give it to Duran in the short role and trust 896 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:04,080 Speaker 1: him to make those right reads going downhill on the 897 00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:05,000 Speaker 1: three against two. 898 00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:08,600 Speaker 2: He's just been an animal on. 899 00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:12,120 Speaker 5: The board's score every time. If he wants flash is. 900 00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:13,160 Speaker 2: Some handle too. 901 00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:19,319 Speaker 1: It's crazy how skilled the guy is physicality, he's just 902 00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:21,920 Speaker 1: been incredible. It's just funny. And again, like we bring 903 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:24,480 Speaker 1: up Orlando every shore, at least I do. This is 904 00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:26,799 Speaker 1: kind of what we expected Orlando to come out and do, 905 00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:30,200 Speaker 1: show like internal improvement, Like they didn't go out and 906 00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:32,480 Speaker 1: make the splashy so they did, they did the one 907 00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:34,839 Speaker 1: splashy trade, but it was like, oh, internally, we're young. 908 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:37,200 Speaker 1: Our young guys are going to be even better this 909 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:40,320 Speaker 1: year than they were last year. But that's what Detroit's done. 910 00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:43,560 Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, we added Duncan Robinson to replace Beasley 911 00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:46,280 Speaker 1: as a shooter. Other than that, we rolling the dice 912 00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:48,920 Speaker 1: with the same team and it's just the young guys 913 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:51,760 Speaker 1: just showing that they're getting better year over. 914 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:57,319 Speaker 3: Year and eleven bro nineteen eleven, he's averaging. Yeah, they 915 00:41:57,360 --> 00:41:59,480 Speaker 3: got seven, eight guys and double figures. 916 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:01,600 Speaker 4: But this is I'm gonna look at the East when 917 00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:04,960 Speaker 4: it comes down to it. I like Detroit. I like 918 00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:10,480 Speaker 4: you know, I like Milwaukee, Chicago is showing some promise, 919 00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:13,120 Speaker 4: but like when you really look at it top to bottom, 920 00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:15,080 Speaker 4: like who is Detroit's second best player? 921 00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:18,280 Speaker 2: Do them right at the moment. 922 00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:21,200 Speaker 3: These guys that can give you, those guys that can 923 00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:25,200 Speaker 3: give you flash at moments Thompson, like Tobias can get 924 00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:27,000 Speaker 3: like I'm saying like this, those guys can give you 925 00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:29,879 Speaker 3: a twenty maybe in the playoffs, a twenty thirty point game. 926 00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:32,480 Speaker 4: And so this is all that's why I'm favoring I'm 927 00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 4: favoring Philly to come out of the East because there's 928 00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 4: only two teams that has an All Star at their 929 00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:45,319 Speaker 4: second best player, and that's Cleveland, New York, Well. 930 00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:45,680 Speaker 2: New York. 931 00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:48,560 Speaker 4: So those are my three top three teams. And when 932 00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:51,760 Speaker 4: your second best player is also an All Star. Because 933 00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:54,680 Speaker 4: in New York you got Towns is probably the second 934 00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:57,960 Speaker 4: best player. Yes, In Philly, who's the second best player? 935 00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:02,400 Speaker 1: Now Joel's the second MVP. 936 00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:03,000 Speaker 5: Yeah. 937 00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:03,640 Speaker 1: Facts. 938 00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:07,480 Speaker 4: And then we talk about that third team with they 939 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:08,600 Speaker 4: got Clarence Garland. 940 00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:11,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, they got three All Stars. 941 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:13,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, so we're not when it when it's when it 942 00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:16,040 Speaker 4: all the smoke clear, I think those are gonna be 943 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:17,760 Speaker 4: the three teams that we're gonna be looking. 944 00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:21,160 Speaker 1: At and think about Detroit though, is I think maybe 945 00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:25,120 Speaker 1: Cade will be so dominant in the playoffs that it 946 00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:27,879 Speaker 1: won't matter that he doesn't have a second guy, because 947 00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:31,319 Speaker 1: that's always possible to right, Like you just become you 948 00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:32,560 Speaker 1: just dominate a matchup. 949 00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:34,439 Speaker 3: So it's kind of like Milwaukee will be honest, right, 950 00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:36,320 Speaker 3: exactly who's the second best player? 951 00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:39,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, they haven't done nothing since he left Middletown. 952 00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:46,959 Speaker 3: Yeah, they just middle left. Yeah, And I was looking 953 00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:48,720 Speaker 3: at it's like Ryan Rollins right now is the second. 954 00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:51,439 Speaker 3: Like he's the one that's playing most consistent, and there's 955 00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:54,360 Speaker 3: all the All Star there, Miles Turner, who you know, 956 00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:55,319 Speaker 3: it was decent, but. 957 00:43:55,760 --> 00:44:00,520 Speaker 1: There's too much and also destroyed with the Knicks matchupsifically 958 00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:05,160 Speaker 1: because they won six games last year. The point differential 959 00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:10,160 Speaker 1: in that series was probably like ten points with Detroit 960 00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:11,759 Speaker 1: next year was clo. 961 00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:13,520 Speaker 2: It was nothing but close games. 962 00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:16,719 Speaker 1: So it's like, you gotta feel like I'm right there 963 00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:20,040 Speaker 1: with these guys if we get into a tight situation 964 00:44:20,160 --> 00:44:22,359 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. And so yeah, I've just been blown 965 00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:24,960 Speaker 1: away by Detroit and what they've done so far in 966 00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:29,120 Speaker 1: Kate is he's taking another step. And you know, I 967 00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:31,000 Speaker 1: think we knew he had a great floor game and 968 00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:33,760 Speaker 1: could it was like great with the assist and finding guys, 969 00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:35,880 Speaker 1: but like his one on one scoring is just becoming 970 00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:39,480 Speaker 1: incredible three levels scoring, as they say on the internet. 971 00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:42,400 Speaker 3: I mean that's what the floor games impressed me more 972 00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:44,200 Speaker 3: this year because I knew he could score like scoring 973 00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:45,880 Speaker 3: I thought was like we knew who could do that. 974 00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:47,720 Speaker 5: It's like, can you get his other guys better? 975 00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:48,360 Speaker 2: Yeah? 976 00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:50,840 Speaker 3: And seeing Jalen durn like take another step is like 977 00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:54,880 Speaker 3: that's a that's kid. Allowing him to be able to 978 00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:57,680 Speaker 3: trusting his other guys got to be still coming with 979 00:44:57,680 --> 00:44:59,200 Speaker 3: the bench like he played a two many game of 980 00:44:59,239 --> 00:45:01,359 Speaker 3: k Like those guys as eating off the fact that 981 00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:04,160 Speaker 3: Kate is able to find them, draw their attention, you 982 00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:06,360 Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, and trust them in the situation, 983 00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:08,200 Speaker 3: allow them to make plays and quarterbacks. 984 00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:13,239 Speaker 1: So speak shots to Detroit City.
