21
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:16,040
Speaker 1: We got a lot to talk about here on today's show.

22
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 1: So let's just jump into the games. Another day, another

23
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 1: classic night in the NBA. Donovan Mitchell scores a Calves

24
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:28,440
Speaker 1: franchise record duh, and a career best seventy one points.

25
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 1: Let's say that again. Donovan Mitchell scored seventy one points

26
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:37,199
Speaker 1: last night in the ot win against Trey Kirby's Bull

27
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 1: So I think we have to start with TK and

28
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 1: your reactions to Mitchell's game and how it all happened,

29
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 1: and what happened at the end regulation and getting in

30
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 1: overtip all this stuff. What do you think man?

31
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 3: As humans, we contain multitudes, you know, skates. So, as

32
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 3: a basketball fan, I was enjoying the Donovan Mitchell show

33
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 3: last night. Incredible shot making. I love that every time

34
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 3: they cut to a video, like a close up of

35
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 3: him grinning ear to ear because he was so on

36
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 3: fire and every point that he scored was a point

37
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:12,560
Speaker 3: that the Calves needed. It's incredible to see somebody score

38
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:16,079
Speaker 3: seventy plus points in a game when it actually matters

39
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 3: like this is a lot more impressive than Devin Booker's

40
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 3: seventy point game.

41
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 4: This was a comeback win.

42
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:23,799
Speaker 3: For the Calves over the Bulls basically at twenty point

43
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 3: deficit at halftime. They needed every single one of these

44
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 3: points from Mitchell. He makes the incredible play on the

45
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 3: offensive rebound at the end of regulation, pulling a Luka Doncic.

46
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,559
Speaker 3: Awesome stuff. As a Bulls fan, however.

47
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 5: I was ferious, Oh, why don't they just give him

48
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 5: some more free throws? How early are he allowed into

49
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 5: the lane on an intentional miss free throw because there

50
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 5: was a couple of miss calls there and also Patrick

51
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:54,080
Speaker 5: Williams get a body on somebody please. They completely whiffed

52
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 5: on the Donovan Mitchell box out. But guess what, so

53
00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 5: did Andre Drummond because Robin Lopez had it if Mitchell

54
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:01,679
Speaker 5: I didn't get the put back there. I mean, maybe

55
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 5: you're thinking Robin Lopez misses the layup, but Donovan Mitchell

56
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:08,520
Speaker 5: wasn't missing on that night. Uh, awesome win for the Cavs,

57
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:10,799
Speaker 5: awesome game for Mitchell, And.

58
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 3: Like every shot he made was cool, Yeah, not for

59
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:13,800
Speaker 3: the free throws.

60
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:14,079
Speaker 2: Not cool.

61
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:15,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of free throws.

62
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 3: He still scored fifty one points minus the free throws.

63
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:20,919
Speaker 3: That's incredible. But he did take twenty free throws in

64
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 3: the second half in overtime. This was a Dwayne Wade

65
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,079
Speaker 3: two thousand and six Finals esque performance.

66
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 1: We've compared Mitchell to Wait before.

67
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:28,679
Speaker 3: Yes, and the rest were handing him dress to the line,

68
00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 3: no doubt.

69
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, twenty one point comeback was the largest comeback in

70
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 1: the NBA this season. It sort of overlooked in the

71
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 1: seventy one point incredible game from Mitchell. He also had

72
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 1: aleven assists too. I mean he contributed what like ninety

73
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 1: nine points in this game and they needed all of

74
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 1: them to beat the Bulls. It's nuts.

75
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 2: Yes, and the Hawks almost came back from twenty one

76
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 2: a little bit later in the night. They didn't though, No,

77
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 2: they didn't. There was just a lot of overshadowed facts

78
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 2: in this night in the NBA. You said it was

79
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 2: a classic night. I mean the NBA was drunk though.

80
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 2: Five forty point scorers last night.

81
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, so the third time it's happened in the last

82
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 1: two weeks. Yes, it had happened four times in the

83
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 1: previous seventy six years of the league. Where what'd you say,

84
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 1: five forty points scores on the same night that we

85
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 1: It is drunk right now, It's it's insane. What's going on?

86
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 2: I know he got to the line a lot, but

87
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 2: it didn't feel like he was forcing anything. That's why

88
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 2: it was different than Devin Booker's. Devin Booker was going

89
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,159
Speaker 2: for it at the end. It felt like it was

90
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,160
Speaker 2: within the offense. It didn't feel like he was hogging

91
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 2: the ball. Every shot was going through him. But he

92
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 2: let Karris Lvert shoot once and overtime.

93
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 1: I think when he was splashing three after three after

94
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 1: three there when they were like, it's still a game,

95
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,559
Speaker 1: but like it was give him the ball. The guy's

96
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:42,840
Speaker 1: on a heater right now, and he was like and

97
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:44,760
Speaker 1: he just couldn't miss. And that's why A part of

98
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 1: why he was like grinning from ear to ear, I

99
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,479
Speaker 1: think he's like, well, this is special. Everything I throw up,

100
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:51,919
Speaker 1: I can't. I can't miss the basket. It must have

101
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 1: looked ten feet wide to the guy last night.

102
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 2: And I was fine with the grins. I loved him

103
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,040
Speaker 2: as they got bigger and bigger. The grin's so big

104
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 2: he could taste his own earwax. Yeah, well that line,

105
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 2: I can't stop saying it. Once you hear it once,

106
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,119
Speaker 2: you can't stop saying it. But yeah, he was getting

107
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,279
Speaker 2: into the lane pickup top and let's roll. It was

108
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,359
Speaker 2: kind of a perfect storm for him to shoot a

109
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 2: lot because Darius Garland was out beside him, and to

110
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:17,279
Speaker 2: a lesser extent, Evan Mobley also out. But the thing

111
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 2: is with Don Mitchell, you think that his usage rate

112
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 2: is crazy. He takes every shot on this team. It's

113
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,600
Speaker 2: actually lower than it was last year with the Jazz

114
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 2: and Garland and Mobiley are shooting a little bit less

115
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 2: this season. But overall that's been so impressive to me

116
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 2: is Donald Mitchell has come into this team with two

117
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 2: fricking All Stars and they have been so accommodating to

118
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,840
Speaker 2: let this guy shoot as much as he wants. And

119
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 2: on a night, yeah, only thirty four shots to get

120
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 2: those seventy one points.

121
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 3: He went to the free throw line a million times.

122
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:48,040
Speaker 3: He would have had more shot attempts.

123
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, rifted him twenty points.

124
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 4: And gifted him twenty points.

125
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,039
Speaker 3: These were I mean they filed out Caruso in the

126
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 3: fourth quarter early basically yes, yeah, yeah, and I mean

127
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:01,359
Speaker 3: one of them was a trip. That's a foul, But like,

128
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 3: I don't know, these were some Yeah, that's.

129
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 1: What that's what.

130
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 3: That's why though he has a low shot attemt number

131
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:12,160
Speaker 3: because he's at the free throw line, that's another ten

132
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:12,919
Speaker 3: shot attempts.

133
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,159
Speaker 2: Sure. Sure, but he also had a bunch of assists.

134
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:17,800
Speaker 2: They was going through him and he was passing the ball.

135
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 2: Eleven assists, the most for any seventy point scorer in

136
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 2: the NBA by far, a huge difference between him and Booker,

137
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 2: who's second with with six in terms of seventy point scores.

138
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 2: So I didn't feel like he was hogging it. Yeah,

139
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 2: he may have been getting some calls, but totally fine

140
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,320
Speaker 2: with it. Totally fine either way. I understand you're frustrated.

141
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 2: We were getting actual text photos. We're getting photos sent

142
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:43,120
Speaker 2: from Laura Trey's.

143
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:44,720
Speaker 1: White his wife was sending back at.

144
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:46,240
Speaker 2: The end of the game. He had to be impressed.

145
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 2: He had to be impressed.

146
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:48,039
Speaker 4: It was incredible.

147
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:54,040
Speaker 3: Man's Yeah, Like I said, you know, it's the duality

148
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 3: of man right here. On one hand, it's awesome to

149
00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:01,040
Speaker 3: see a guy light up a team like Donovan Mitchell

150
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 3: was last night, But it is terrible when it is

151
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 3: your team and you have the win in your hands.

152
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 3: If only you could put a booty on Donovan Mitchell

153
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:12,760
Speaker 3: at the free throw line, or just somebody.

154
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,200
Speaker 1: That is really taking a knife and twisting in. You

155
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:17,960
Speaker 1: board man over here just couldn't get an remount. Yep,

156
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,160
Speaker 1: we're gonna body box out. Yeah.

157
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 3: I did feel pretty baller though, because I got to

158
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 3: impress Laura when they lost to the Hawks. I said,

159
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 3: they got to put a tall guy by the rim.

160
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,560
Speaker 3: They're gonna throw it right to the lost to the

161
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 3: Hawks on a lob.

162
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 2: To the rim.

163
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 3: On this one, I said, he's gonna throw the ball

164
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:33,239
Speaker 3: off the front of the rim, grab it and shoot

165
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 3: a lamp. She's like, that never works. We just saw

166
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 3: them try to do that. The bulls just try to

167
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 3: do it. Rosen, I think Airbalden didn't hit the rim.

168
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 3: Guess what happened. I'm like, it happens, it works, people try.

169
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 3: It happened three times over the weekend. I thought he

170
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 3: and behold the oracle of bulls misery comes through again.

171
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 2: I thought he'd copy Luca and go front rim. But

172
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 2: big difference. He went far right deep deep on the rim,

173
00:07:57,040 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 2: deep on the heel of the rim, and yeah, Vooch

174
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 2: was on that side. He did his job sort of

175
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 2: with a box out, but he didn't go after the ball.

176
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 2: Nobody went after the ball. Just boxed out. And yeah,

177
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,080
Speaker 2: Patrick Gilham's definitely missed the box out on Donovan Mitchell.

178
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 2: But it was cool to see it in a different way. Luka,

179
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 2: Doncic goes front rim. We should have a free throw

180
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 2: missing contest at All Star weekend?

181
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 1: Why the heck not?

182
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 2: I think it could be more fun than a lot

183
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 2: of things that happened at All Star weekend. So it

184
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 2: was it was something that we've talked to Brent Barry

185
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 2: about that NBA player's practice and Donovan Mitchell, I guess

186
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:32,040
Speaker 2: likes to go right side of the room and he

187
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,200
Speaker 2: wanted he was going for it as trace it. He

188
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:35,840
Speaker 2: was going to go get that ball. He wasn't let

189
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:36,680
Speaker 2: anybody else get that.

190
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 1: Look he got away with the violent Yeah, I mean

191
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 1: he's in a good step before it hits some steps.

192
00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, call that at the end of at the end

193
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 2: of at the end of the fourth quarter, that's kind

194
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 2: of a yeah, I would hate that call. Why can't

195
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 2: you Why can't you box out?

196
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,360
Speaker 3: Why can't you box out? That's that's the big question,

197
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:56,440
Speaker 3: why can't you box out?

198
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,840
Speaker 1: So he is the sixth player in NBA history to

199
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 1: score seventy plus points in a game with the seventy one.

200
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 1: He shattered the Cleveland record, which was I always had

201
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:09,439
Speaker 1: forgotten that Kyrie and Lebron shared that fifty seven Cavs

202
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:11,600
Speaker 1: franchise record for most points in a game. Not anymore,

203
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,320
Speaker 1: but Mitchell joined Wilt who did it? How many times?

204
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:19,440
Speaker 1: I don't a lot. Kobe, of course, David Thompson, Elgin Baylor,

205
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,240
Speaker 1: and Devin Booker in that loss to what the Celtics

206
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:25,320
Speaker 1: back in seventeen something like that. Yeah, that's a good

207
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 1: chunk of time ago. And then the eleven assists. It's

208
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 1: wild that, Like you're watching this game as a Bulls fan.

209
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 1: Of course, the opponent player, the star player, scored seventy one,

210
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 1: and like you're saying, Trey, like, oh my god, your

211
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:38,680
Speaker 1: team lost, so you upset, but you're like, wow, that

212
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:43,200
Speaker 1: was pretty wild to see. We're like two of the

213
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,199
Speaker 1: few people in the world that can actually put ourselves

214
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 1: in those shoes, having watched Kobe score eighty one our

215
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:54,559
Speaker 1: team and know that pain. But look, I would have

216
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 1: rather my team, the Raptors, how they lost last night,

217
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 1: lose like yours didone it's better.

218
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's better, it's better.

219
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:01,960
Speaker 4: It's better.

220
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 3: I'm excited for the last two minute report to come out,

221
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 3: and we'll hear another way that the Bulls were a

222
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:09,320
Speaker 3: win stolen from them against the Cleveland Cavaliers, just like

223
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,199
Speaker 3: they were in the previous game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

224
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:16,079
Speaker 3: Here's some credit I'll give to Cleveland. The game changed

225
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 3: completely when Jared Allen started guarding to mard Roz in

226
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,440
Speaker 3: the last two minutes in the game. DeRozan was cooking

227
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:24,680
Speaker 3: in the fourth quarter, had eleven through the first tennish minutes.

228
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 3: They switched Jared Allen onto him and he couldn't really

229
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 3: figure out how to attack because the mid ranger just

230
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,559
Speaker 3: became a lot more difficult having to shoot over a

231
00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:33,960
Speaker 3: seven foot guy who could move his feet enough to

232
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 3: stay in front. Didn't score the last two and a

233
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 3: half minutes of the fourth quarter. That was kind of

234
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:40,080
Speaker 3: the game for the Bulls as well, right there, and

235
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 3: also some more credit to the Cavs. Robin Lopez did

236
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 3: a Bill Wennington tweet at the end. He said they

237
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:49,400
Speaker 3: combined him and Mitchell for seventy three points in the game,

238
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,320
Speaker 3: much like Bill Wennington way back in the day with

239
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 3: Michael Jordan's double nickel.

240
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, speaking of oldies, Yes, we watched both of those games,

241
00:10:57,679 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 2: but also a guy called both of those games. Chuck

242
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 2: Swirsky called both those oh wow, And he was interviewed

243
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 2: by Joe Varden after the game. There's an article on

244
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 2: the athlete. Pretty cool he was. He was there for

245
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 2: the Kobe game to here for the Donovan Mitchell game.

246
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 2: Just just a wild night, what a roller coaster. Yeah,

247
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 2: of course, of course the Raptors were gonna lose. Actually,

248
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,600
Speaker 2: after the first quarter in both games, I tweeted, who's

249
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 2: more likely to hang on the bulls or the Raps?

250
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 2: Thinking the bulls were were We're doing it far more convincingly. Yeah,

251
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 2: to start the game. But yeah, I'd rather get spanked,

252
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 2: like like the Facers took care of business. Yeah than that,

253
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:35,920
Speaker 2: for sure.

254
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 1: I mean spanked in the final six minutes of the game.

255
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, well embarrassed.

256
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:41,720
Speaker 1: Just a quick stack correction there, because I think it

257
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,240
Speaker 1: actually makes it funnier. Robin Lopez pointing out they combined

258
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 1: for seventy two points. He scored one. Don Mitchell with

259
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:55,440
Speaker 1: the seventy one Any other thoughts on Mitchell's masterpiece? Now, okay,

260
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 1: let's keep it going. We got a lot to get to.

261
00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:01,560
Speaker 1: Klay Thompson. He had a season best fifty scored fifty four,

262
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,720
Speaker 1: So it's the second story here in an unbelievable game,

263
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,680
Speaker 1: maybe even in crazier game, as the Warriors got past

264
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,439
Speaker 1: the Hawks in double overtime. This is the first time

265
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:14,520
Speaker 1: Clay scored more than forty one since his two devastating injuries,

266
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 1: and he was on fire from deepenning ten threes and

267
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 1: bricking one at the right time too at the end

268
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:24,200
Speaker 1: to allow Looney in double overtime to get the rebound,

269
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:25,959
Speaker 1: get in up on the glass, miss get his own

270
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 1: like he was Moses Malone, and put in the second

271
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,920
Speaker 1: one game winning buzzer beater from Looney, the eleventh won

272
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 1: this NBA season. It feels like a lot too to me.

273
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,640
Speaker 1: So not only these incredible individual performances with some crazy endings,

274
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 1: but what do you think about this?

275
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 2: Looney also a huge grin ear to ear must be

276
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 2: his first buzzer beater of his career, I imagine, I

277
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 2: think so, and a genuine smile, and everybody loves Kevon

278
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:51,720
Speaker 2: Looney on that team, so huge, huge hugs for him.

279
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:53,960
Speaker 2: Also a twenty one point lead, just like the Bulls

280
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,000
Speaker 2: had on the Cavs. The Warriors had a twenty one

281
00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 2: point lead, almost gave it away, perfect storm for the

282
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:03,080
Speaker 2: Hawk to go down twenty one points because the best

283
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:05,200
Speaker 2: player on the other team wasn't on the floor, Steph

284
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:07,360
Speaker 2: Curry not there, a bunch of other guys, including Andrew

285
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 2: Wiggins still not playing, so the Hawks didn't show up

286
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:13,959
Speaker 2: defensively in the first quarter. All their perimeter guys, it's

287
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,280
Speaker 2: not just Tray bogg down, Bogdanovic came in, was terrible.

288
00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 2: Dejonte Murray, who is supposed to be good on that end,

289
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 2: was bad. So they get down twenty one and they

290
00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:26,640
Speaker 2: nearly come back and another offensive rebound if they just

291
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,719
Speaker 2: grabbed it to Trey Young. Oddly, at the end of

292
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 2: the fourth quarter, there went into the lane when Dante

293
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:36,000
Speaker 2: DiVincenzo got the ball corral or bounced to him at

294
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,720
Speaker 2: the three point line when the Warriors needed a three,

295
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,480
Speaker 2: So Trey Young shouldn't have left Dante DiVincenzo and then

296
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 2: bang tie game. We go into a double overtime where yeah,

297
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 2: Clay was hot, but a disappointing game for the Hawks.

298
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:52,040
Speaker 2: Two all stars in the backcourt obviously the more talented

299
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 2: team on the floor. I think that needs to be

300
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:55,840
Speaker 2: said they are the more talented team then the Golden

301
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 2: State Warriors with all their injuries, and the Warriors got

302
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 2: lucky to win the game. But the Hawks, really, it's uh,

303
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 2: let's do or die time, I think, I mean, when

304
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 2: are they gonna come around? It's unfortunate. And Clay, Yeah, Clay, Clay,

305
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 2: Clay getting the shots up, a Donovan Mitchell like shot

306
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 2: attempt knight for for Clay Thompson, just letting it fly.

307
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 2: Maybe thirty nine shots for him.

308
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, as a team, they attempted fifty nine to threes

309
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:26,440
Speaker 1: the Warriors did, which is a franchise records record for

310
00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 1: the Warriors and says something.

311
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 2: And while that there was fifty seven threes taken. Draymond

312
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,760
Speaker 2: Green forty five seconds left, takes his first three of

313
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:37,480
Speaker 2: the game in double overtime. Bang hits it, which you

314
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 2: know he has become a little bit. He's not a

315
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 2: great shooter, obviously, but is his number is better than

316
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:47,520
Speaker 2: his career average. It's somewhat doable, around thirty three percent

317
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,720
Speaker 2: this year. So yeah, the Warriors are feeling friggin good. Well,

318
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:53,600
Speaker 2: the Hawks obviously shouldn't have gave you this game away.

319
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:56,120
Speaker 3: Thoughts on this one Yeah, twenty three is honestly the

320
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:58,800
Speaker 3: big number in this one. The offensive rebounds for the Warriors.

321
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:02,160
Speaker 3: You could tell that Clint Cup was missing because on

322
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 3: the de Vincenzo three at the end of overtime. Those

323
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 3: two offensive rebounds, I mean one of them like tough play,

324
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:10,600
Speaker 3: you know, blocking Jordan Pool's three and then he tips

325
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,280
Speaker 3: it out to the Vincenzo. That's just tough. But not

326
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:16,240
Speaker 3: tough is the offensive rebound the Pool grabbed after the

327
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 3: Clay air ball basically, so that was bad. And then

328
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 3: obviously letting Looney get two looks at it for the

329
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 3: new menu item at the butcher Shop.

330
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:26,560
Speaker 4: The big beef buzzer beat.

331
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:27,320
Speaker 1: Oh wow.

332
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 3: He had eighteen rebounds going into that last shot, one

333
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,520
Speaker 3: off the glass, one into the hoop. Twenty boards. That's

334
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:35,640
Speaker 3: a lot of roast beef and a'll win for the Warriors.

335
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 3: But man, that's a disappointing loss for the Hawks. They

336
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,560
Speaker 3: had that game one. Yeah, they should have. They should

337
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:42,080
Speaker 3: have been able to take that one down. It would

338
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 3: have been the kind of thing you build on, really

339
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:47,120
Speaker 3: if you're able to come back from being down twenty one,

340
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 3: coming back against the good team like the Warriors. But

341
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,240
Speaker 3: Warriors are figuring out ways to win right now with

342
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 3: Curry out and with Wiggins out, So imagine how good

343
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:56,720
Speaker 3: they're gonna be when those guys actually come back.

344
00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I think Warriors fans would probably agree

345
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 1: with this, but like with them sort of like keeping

346
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 1: their head above water with no Curry, and you know,

347
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:05,520
Speaker 1: he got the Wolves sort of struggling till they picked

348
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 1: up like a much need to win last night, and

349
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 1: Lebron taking the Lakers, putting another forty point game up

350
00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:12,840
Speaker 1: to and getting them another victory, like they're keeping them

351
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 1: at bay. But if the Warriors are, like you know,

352
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:19,040
Speaker 1: obviously in the playoffs, I think we all think they'll

353
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 1: be there at the end of the year. But wherever

354
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 1: they are, I want you to remember this sort of

355
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 1: chunk of the season here where Klay Thompson over his

356
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 1: last four games is averaging thirty four and a half

357
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 1: points per game, shooting fifty two, forty two and ninety three,

358
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 1: shooting splits from obviously the field, the three point line,

359
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:35,360
Speaker 1: in the free throw line. He's got a sixty percent

360
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 1: true shooting percent. Like this is an important little chunk here,

361
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 1: like these these are these are games, These are wins

362
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 1: they need to have without Curry, especially, and you know,

363
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:46,920
Speaker 1: his demise was greatly over exaggerated. I think he's he's on.

364
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:50,120
Speaker 1: He's on a classic Klay Thompson heater right now. Thirty

365
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 1: four and a half points per game. I know in

366
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,560
Speaker 1: today's NBA that's like, so what, it seems like nothing,

367
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 1: but that's a lot. That is still a lot from

368
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 1: a guy that some people thought was like wow and done,

369
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 1: like trade him, get him out of here. It's like

370
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 1: he's I mean, like, especially with Pool, who's had some

371
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:09,040
Speaker 1: great games too. Pool was making boneheaded play after boneheld

372
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:10,439
Speaker 1: a play in this He was trying to give this

373
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:13,200
Speaker 1: game to the Hawks and Clay and Looney and the

374
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:14,960
Speaker 1: rest bail him out there. De Vincenzo.

375
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:19,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, Clay obviously can get any shot he wants with

376
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:22,800
Speaker 2: the Curry out, he can chuck it up as he

377
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:26,600
Speaker 2: did in this one, and he did that. It's interesting

378
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,840
Speaker 2: him sitting out basically every third game to stay fresh

379
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 2: for the playoffs. But the playoffs weren't a lock before

380
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:38,320
Speaker 2: Steph went down. Yeah, they really weren't. And Clay goes

381
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 2: out sits out every few games. But really the depth

382
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 2: of this roster has really helped him out. They're six

383
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:47,280
Speaker 2: and three since Steph went down, which is wild, and

384
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:49,520
Speaker 2: they got another three at home. They could easily be

385
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,960
Speaker 2: nine and three while Steph is out.

386
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 1: Let's get to the hottest team in the league, though.

387
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 1: Kyrie Irving and the Nets roll past the Spurs one

388
00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:00,560
Speaker 1: thirty nine, one three, and we make note of this

389
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:04,160
Speaker 1: one because it's their twelfth straight victory and they are

390
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:06,639
Speaker 1: knocking on the door of the number one seed in

391
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,440
Speaker 1: the Eastern Conference. There's something like seventeen and three since

392
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:13,639
Speaker 1: Kyrie came back from his suspension, and last night it

393
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:16,480
Speaker 1: was Kyrie with twenty seven Katie with twenty five. They

394
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:18,920
Speaker 1: played under thirty minutes because they blew the doors off

395
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:22,160
Speaker 1: the Spurs and we had to put back dunk from

396
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:25,199
Speaker 1: Kyrie Irving, which caught everybody by surprise and had the

397
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:30,479
Speaker 1: Nets bench going absolutely ballistic. Again. I think a lot

398
00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 1: of people not knowing Kyrie had that in him. He

399
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:34,639
Speaker 1: just timed it perfectly on the wata na be a

400
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 1: miss jumper there and threw it down.

401
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,639
Speaker 2: Culture is good right now. If everybody's super excited for

402
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 2: Kyrie to throw that down, they were felt like that

403
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 2: was a game winner. Yeah, I looked and I thought,

404
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:48,120
Speaker 2: how many dunks as Kyrie had? Should they be that

405
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:51,399
Speaker 2: super duper excited? He does not have a lot. No,

406
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:52,919
Speaker 2: what is it? I don't know.

407
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:54,280
Speaker 1: Oh how I looked it up.

408
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 2: Nah, I didn't actually go through.

409
00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:58,119
Speaker 3: I looked at it the first of the season. He

410
00:18:58,160 --> 00:18:59,080
Speaker 3: had one last season.

411
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 2: Oh okay, I looked at his height six to two. Yeah,

412
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,440
Speaker 2: he could. It's just rare. He just doesn't do it. Yeah,

413
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:09,520
Speaker 2: so to get up, Yeah, pretty cool. Great culture? What Yeah,

414
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:11,920
Speaker 2: the Brooklyn Nets have a great culture. They were yeah,

415
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:14,600
Speaker 2: came out after Kyrie's suspension and lost a couple, but

416
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 2: they have been absolutely flowing and they want that one

417
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:22,800
Speaker 2: seed because if it comes down to it, if they actually,

418
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:24,520
Speaker 2: you know, go through and win the one seed and

419
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,560
Speaker 2: then win a playoff series, it would be Buck Celtics

420
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 2: in the second second round. So they put the big

421
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:33,920
Speaker 2: each void having to go through both of them and

422
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:35,960
Speaker 2: let the Buck Celtics deal with that. I can't believe

423
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:37,800
Speaker 2: we're talking about the Nets and the one seed. But

424
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:41,400
Speaker 2: it was last year January I think twenty first. They

425
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 2: were in the one seed in the Eastern Conference last

426
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 2: year and then it all fell apart when Durant went out,

427
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:52,560
Speaker 2: so I'm not betting on them, but they obviously look great.

428
00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 1: I love that you said last night's game was basically

429
00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:57,920
Speaker 1: over after the Kyrie dunk, which was like, if memory

430
00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:01,040
Speaker 1: serves me right, like ear, it's the second quarter me,

431
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:03,359
Speaker 1: but you're absolutely right. It was like, well that was

432
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:06,679
Speaker 1: game because it was right after Watanabi had like he

433
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,719
Speaker 1: had dunked, had the place going nuts. He had hit

434
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 1: a three too, and he's grinning ear to ear, and

435
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:14,800
Speaker 1: then the Kyrie put back and it was like, okay, wow,

436
00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 1: that's it. It was a huge lead by then, and

437
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,360
Speaker 1: you knew the Spurs were not coming back, even though

438
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:21,439
Speaker 1: first AF leads generally are fake. Not last night's game.

439
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:23,119
Speaker 3: Any thoughts on Kyrie and the Nets here and what

440
00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,679
Speaker 3: they're they're cooking bad teams right now. Fifteen and two

441
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:28,160
Speaker 3: against teams that are under five hundred, ten and ten

442
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,920
Speaker 3: against teams that are over five hundred. So that's awesome though,

443
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:35,400
Speaker 3: Like that's how you get high seeds in a playoff

444
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 3: series by beating the teams that you absolutely have to beat.

445
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 3: They've also beaten the Calves, the Bucks, and the Warriors

446
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,159
Speaker 3: on the streak. Seven of their games have been on

447
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:44,920
Speaker 3: the road. I guess Kevin Durant was completely right about

448
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:46,960
Speaker 3: Steve Nash, Like we had a lot of talks about

449
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:48,720
Speaker 3: a Steve Nash a good coach. Is Steve Nash a

450
00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,320
Speaker 3: bad coach? It's kind of hard to tell. It looks

451
00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 3: like Jock Vond's a good coach, so I wonder if

452
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,040
Speaker 3: he'll actually, you know, get a real chance with this team,

453
00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:59,280
Speaker 3: so we shall see. The key is having everybody healthy, though,

454
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 3: Kyrie and Kevin Durant and even Ben Simmons playing a

455
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:07,480
Speaker 3: lot that helps, you know, having your three best players

456
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:09,760
Speaker 3: on the court gives you a chance every single night,

457
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:11,320
Speaker 3: especially against these stinker teams.

458
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:14,080
Speaker 1: And even and and it's sort of like completely slipped

459
00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 1: under under the radar here? Does that make sense? Slipped under,

460
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 1: gone under the same thing. If you asked me, it's

461
00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:23,119
Speaker 1: gone and slipped.

462
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:25,960
Speaker 2: Is TJ Definitely slip under the radar?

463
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 1: Okay, thank you? Yeah, Like I'm Catherine Zita Jones.

464
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:30,520
Speaker 3: Well that's not a radar.

465
00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 1: Oh that's a lazy pretty similar to if you ask me,

466
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 1: I don't know what movie, I just know the scene

467
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 1: because it's sexy as hell. What is out of sight? No,

468
00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:48,399
Speaker 1: I don't know, isn't it. Somebody tell me, it's like

469
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,240
Speaker 1: somebody in the stream team, Come on, what movie is.

470
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 2: A radar? It's but a plane can slip under the radar.

471
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 3: That's good, it will fly under the radar. Personally, what about.

472
00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:14,440
Speaker 1: No, no, what are we getting here? Entrapment? Everybody's coming

473
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,080
Speaker 1: through with it. Now there's a little lag here, all right,

474
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:20,200
Speaker 1: that's fantastic. Why was I saying? I was about to say.

475
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:20,480
Speaker 2: TJ.

476
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:23,959
Speaker 1: Warren is back and like playing well. He's like had

477
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:25,639
Speaker 1: a couple of really really nice games from them, So

478
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:27,639
Speaker 1: that's just another piece for them to go along with.

479
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 1: Obviously Claxton give them the defense, sim has given them

480
00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,040
Speaker 1: the defense, and then you got your two lights out

481
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:35,040
Speaker 1: scorers who are on one and that's it for real, man.

482
00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:37,600
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just like you just gotta like cross

483
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,840
Speaker 1: your fingers and like hold your breath that it's all

484
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,120
Speaker 1: about basketball. Because if it's all about basketball and they're

485
00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 1: all healthy and there's no off court distractions or whatever,

486
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:48,719
Speaker 1: then they're a damn good team, like we've seen them

487
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 1: before be a good team. It's like, can they just

488
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 1: do this for an extended period and do it at

489
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:56,440
Speaker 1: the right time and peak at the right time. That's you.

490
00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:58,399
Speaker 1: You never know, and that's probably big reason why I

491
00:22:58,400 --> 00:22:59,800
Speaker 1: don't want to put words in your mouth. But maybe

492
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:01,439
Speaker 1: why don't want to bet on them, or why a

493
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:02,639
Speaker 1: lot of people don't want to bet on.

494
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:04,560
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, the regular season is a lot different than

495
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:06,399
Speaker 2: the playoffs. When they take a couple of bumps, a

496
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:09,000
Speaker 2: couple of lumps, I'd rather take. I'd rather believe in

497
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:12,480
Speaker 2: the Bucks and Celtics being resilient enough to bounce back.

498
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,800
Speaker 2: They crumbled against the Celtics last year, and so.

499
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:18,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, but we also almost saw Kevin Durant single handily

500
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 1: beat the Bucks two years ago.

501
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, but last year they got swept. I mean

502
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:26,600
Speaker 2: it's uh, yeah, we can. We can pick and parse

503
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 2: throughout the NBA history, but last year they literally fell apart.

504
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:34,640
Speaker 2: So is it is it just a better locker room

505
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,680
Speaker 2: now than it was last year without Steve Nash? I mean,

506
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 2: they just probably like Jacquevon. I don't think joq Von

507
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:43,879
Speaker 2: is a way better coach. They just don't like Steve Nash.

508
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:47,520
Speaker 2: I imagine they just didn't like him around. And as

509
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:51,200
Speaker 2: Kyrie said, we can coach ourselves, I guess they can.

510
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 2: They are they are healthier, that's that's a part of it.

511
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,600
Speaker 2: They're deeper. So Durant's been doing this the whole season,

512
00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:01,400
Speaker 2: and Kyrie is probably the biggest factor. He's playing basketball now.

513
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 1: We still have eight other games to try and slip

514
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 1: in here, so that's how we're gonna do it. Okay.

515
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:09,200
Speaker 1: In the Eastern Conference, seeds five through eight, they all won.

516
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 1: Joel embiid a monster line as the seventy six ers

517
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,719
Speaker 1: got past the Pelicans. Zion heard his hamstring and that

518
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 1: one had to leave. In the fourth quarter, we had

519
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:21,119
Speaker 1: the Pacers getting past the Raptors there for their fourth

520
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 1: straight victory. Bam Adebayo, he scored thirty one. He recovered

521
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,639
Speaker 1: to beat the Clips by ten, and then Randall and

522
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:30,320
Speaker 1: Brunson helped the lift the Knicks over the Suns one,

523
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:33,479
Speaker 1: two eighty three. The Suns are down bad right now

524
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:37,080
Speaker 1: without Booker. That was that odd three pm Eastern start

525
00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:38,959
Speaker 1: there probably screwed with a lot of I don't know

526
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:41,760
Speaker 1: daily fantasy players for all I know, but yeah, all

527
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:45,440
Speaker 1: those teams won. Is there any one of those games

528
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 1: or performances that either of you guys wanted to address.

529
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,840
Speaker 3: Phoenix Sun scored eleven points in the first quarter of

530
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 3: their game against the Nick Glad mentioned that they were

531
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:56,840
Speaker 3: playing at noon Phoenix time.

532
00:24:57,680 --> 00:24:58,120
Speaker 4: Unfair.

533
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:01,640
Speaker 3: I think not fair to Phoenix sunst to try and

534
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 3: roll out of bed and play a team like the

535
00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:06,760
Speaker 3: New York Knicks. But I see Julius Randall as strung together.

536
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 3: Oh a nice set of games here, over thirty a

537
00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:12,760
Speaker 3: game basically over his last five. He's looking good. But

538
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 3: like you're saying, the Suns need Devin Booker to come

539
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:16,800
Speaker 3: back basically immediately, and they need to wake up a

540
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:17,440
Speaker 3: little earlier.

541
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,920
Speaker 2: Unfair that the sun started at twelve. Also a little

542
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:24,240
Speaker 2: unfair that the thing going around social media was DeAndre

543
00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 2: Ayton doing it a granny style mid court shot before

544
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:32,320
Speaker 2: the game. This guy is practicing this while he should

545
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,320
Speaker 2: be practicing at the rim before a game. He does

546
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:39,000
Speaker 2: that every game, right, So if it was Steph Curry

547
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 2: doing that, he plays what he curls, he does, he

548
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 2: does he plays volleyball before games.

549
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:47,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, but he backs it up when he plays.

550
00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well so yeah, Unfortunately for the Suns they got

551
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:56,520
Speaker 2: shell act. Unfortunately he's Ion Williamson out with that injury.

552
00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:01,119
Speaker 2: Hopefully he's okay. Hopefully he's okay. That's that's worrisome that

553
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:03,480
Speaker 2: he could be out for a bit because Hammies tend

554
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:03,879
Speaker 2: to linger.

555
00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:06,399
Speaker 1: Those four teams though Sixers, Pacers, Heat and Knicks all

556
00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:09,560
Speaker 1: separated by three games there in that again five to

557
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:11,879
Speaker 1: eighth slot in the Eastern Conference. And this is just

558
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:13,639
Speaker 1: another reason why that was such a brutal loss for

559
00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:16,760
Speaker 1: the Hawks too, you know, trying to catch those teams

560
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:20,360
Speaker 1: and also on a night where the Raptors and the Bulls,

561
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:23,320
Speaker 1: our two teams pick up another l and that could

562
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 1: have you know, separated them another game there, but they

563
00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:28,280
Speaker 1: they don't gain that because they're still up a little

564
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 1: bit on those two teams, but not by much.

565
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:31,359
Speaker 2: And I know you didn't want to call it a

566
00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 2: blowout the Pacers or the Raptors, but they picked them

567
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:37,720
Speaker 2: apart in that the last fourth, the fourth quarter. Yeah,

568
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 2: that's that's how wild it is that the Pacers are

569
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,359
Speaker 2: so far and away a better team than the Toronto

570
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:44,400
Speaker 2: Raptors offensively.

571
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:47,160
Speaker 1: Team five is the keyword.

572
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:50,760
Speaker 2: Five guys going at all times. Haliburton is getting everybody

573
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:55,800
Speaker 2: involved and they all can make something happen. They're all

574
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:57,800
Speaker 2: weapons out there, while the Raps are not.

575
00:26:58,080 --> 00:26:59,960
Speaker 1: The Pacers did a great job I'm going to watch them.

576
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:01,880
Speaker 1: Majority of this game was they did a great job

577
00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 1: of getting the Raptors to play their type of game

578
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 1: like this up and down a fair Pacers play fast man.

579
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,480
Speaker 1: It's fun. They are really really fun watch, and Raptors

580
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:11,480
Speaker 1: fell into like, Okay, we can have a little track

581
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:13,320
Speaker 1: meet here and we can get a bunch of rush

582
00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:15,880
Speaker 1: to threes up when we shouldn't. Fred van Vliet can't.

583
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,240
Speaker 1: I mean he is just outside of like that one

584
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:20,520
Speaker 1: week where it looked like old van Vliet. He has

585
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:24,120
Speaker 1: had such a bad season and it hurts them because

586
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:26,719
Speaker 1: guy Dan Junior is doing his part. Siakam's still been

587
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 1: an all star type player, but they can't all get

588
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 1: it going on most nights on the same night their

589
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 1: star players like Scotty looked good last night, but the

590
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:35,680
Speaker 1: edil Fred van Vliet having a stinker of a game,

591
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:37,720
Speaker 1: you know, og was bad last night. He's looked good

592
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:41,440
Speaker 1: at other times. It's just like they the Raptors, they

593
00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 1: need to do something here, like they just need to

594
00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:47,040
Speaker 1: decide if they're like all right sort of like we

595
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,399
Speaker 1: will not like not lean into the tank, but like

596
00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,920
Speaker 1: we will look to the future, getting like a high

597
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:53,879
Speaker 1: draft pick and wherever maybe we get lucky all that,

598
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:58,440
Speaker 1: or shake shit up and trade a core piece for

599
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:01,200
Speaker 1: even another core piece just because it's the funk around

600
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:03,440
Speaker 1: this team is brutal, and then you know Precious is

601
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:05,400
Speaker 1: back now and it's not going to change much.

602
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 2: Sorry, man, No, it's okay. I think Fred van Vliet

603
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:11,120
Speaker 2: what he would say is I was an All Star

604
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:12,600
Speaker 2: last year and they haven't put the ball in my

605
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:15,359
Speaker 2: hands this year. And he has actually said that, and

606
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:17,679
Speaker 2: I think that's been a part of why he's had

607
00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 2: a roller coast service season. And I don't know if

608
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:25,280
Speaker 2: he's frustrated to the point where he wants out. Obviously

609
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:29,359
Speaker 2: he plays good soldier and he's battling through it. But

610
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:32,320
Speaker 2: I think they would have been a better off that

611
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,800
Speaker 2: game right here in Atlanta when Aj Griffin did it

612
00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:38,160
Speaker 2: to us. If the ball's in Fred's hands at the

613
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:39,959
Speaker 2: end of the game instead of other guys, then they

614
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:42,640
Speaker 2: win the game. He feels like he should have had

615
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,160
Speaker 2: the ball in his hands more. He's again played good soldier,

616
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:49,320
Speaker 2: and Nick Nurse has said, if we got five guys

617
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:51,440
Speaker 2: who are weapons, who can have the ball in their hands,

618
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:54,040
Speaker 2: like we're just talking about the pacers, then we'd be

619
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:58,880
Speaker 2: better off. But Barnes hasn't lived up to his part

620
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:00,840
Speaker 2: of it. Even Gary Trent didn't live up to his

621
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,160
Speaker 2: part of it for a lot of the season. And

622
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 2: they've had a lot of guys in and out. So

623
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:09,440
Speaker 2: I don't know if they if they knock one of

624
00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:11,360
Speaker 2: those guys out of the sort of the as a

625
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 2: building block.

626
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:15,240
Speaker 1: If you you either trade or you trade OG if

627
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:18,040
Speaker 1: that's your that's the path that it'll take you. Or

628
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:20,600
Speaker 1: like I said, you get Siam to the All Star Game.

629
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:24,280
Speaker 1: And then in the second half, oh is uh planter

630
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:27,320
Speaker 1: fasciitis is acting up, and you like lean into like

631
00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,600
Speaker 1: Scottie Barnes point guard development and you just sort of

632
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,120
Speaker 1: like honestly almost mail in the rest of the season.

633
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:33,080
Speaker 2: Well, that's what you do.

634
00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:34,360
Speaker 1: Those are really only two options.

635
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,320
Speaker 2: The second part of this show, we're getting into some

636
00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:40,480
Speaker 2: bold prediction players who should be moved. Yeah, I can

637
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 2: see a Raptor on the horizon, okay, ub nine.

638
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:47,800
Speaker 1: Well, the other four games, I'll just chuck them at you. Here.

639
00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:50,640
Speaker 1: Lebron forty three Lakers held off the Hornets. He threw

640
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 1: down a wicked uh reverse oop. Yeah it was from Shrooder.

641
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:57,280
Speaker 1: I think Lucas scored thirty nine. MAVs had to rally

642
00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 1: to get back into that game and one over the

643
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:02,080
Speaker 1: Rockets one eleven, one O six. Anthony Edwards scored twenty nine.

644
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:04,200
Speaker 1: Shorthanded Wolves beat the Nuggets won twenty four one to eleven.

645
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:07,320
Speaker 1: They needed that, and Jeremy Grant scored thirty six against

646
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:10,480
Speaker 1: his old team and Gary Payton the second came back well.

647
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 1: Solid debut and they played fourteen minutes but made some

648
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,440
Speaker 1: hustle like plays and threw an oop to sharp As Again.

649
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:19,160
Speaker 1: The Blazers beat the Pistons. Any thoughts on any of.

650
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:23,160
Speaker 2: Those Lucas sucks thirty nine week kick it up, Bud.

651
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:26,320
Speaker 2: He started real slow in that game ended with thirty nine.

652
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,920
Speaker 2: I think we should say about the Wolves because it's

653
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:33,040
Speaker 2: easy to harp on them when they're down. They took

654
00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 2: care of Denver Nuggets. Yeah, that was incredible. The night

655
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:40,120
Speaker 2: before against the Boston Celtics, and the Wolves fought so

656
00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 2: much harder than the Boston Celtics did the previous night.

657
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:44,719
Speaker 2: They came out and they hit first, and they were

658
00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 2: physical defensively, and that was a very very impressive one.

659
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:51,360
Speaker 2: Let's see if they can strain together. But was more

660
00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:55,080
Speaker 2: impressive was that reverse from Lebron James at thirty eight.

661
00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,360
Speaker 1: Wow, and what for the oldest guy, I guess now

662
00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:02,640
Speaker 1: to go back to back forty point games. Yeah, oldest

663
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:04,760
Speaker 1: guy to go back Yeah, I don't think Jordan did

664
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:07,120
Speaker 1: that at that age. I'm pretty sure he didn't go

665
00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:07,880
Speaker 1: back to back.

666
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 2: I don't think so, but he did the fifty.

667
00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:13,040
Speaker 1: Lebron did forty seven here and forty three in his

668
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 1: last two games. I bet he's getting close to that Koreem.

669
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:18,720
Speaker 4: He missed a lot of games.

670
00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:20,280
Speaker 3: He missed a lot of games, so now he's having

671
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:22,720
Speaker 3: to score more than twenty five a game to get

672
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:27,280
Speaker 3: to the record at Madison Square Garden. It's still gonna happen. Yeah,

673
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:29,719
Speaker 3: Nu gets tough loss, third game in four nights. They

674
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:31,440
Speaker 3: were on the road. They got to figure out how

675
00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:33,440
Speaker 3: to win some road games. But I wouldn't be super concerned.

676
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:35,880
Speaker 3: But I thought Anthony Edwards was incredible in the second

677
00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:37,680
Speaker 3: half of this game. Twenty one. He scored in the

678
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:40,160
Speaker 3: second half, He had the three ball working. He was

679
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:42,400
Speaker 3: just an attack mode all night. He looked like he

680
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:44,360
Speaker 3: was in total control last night. So really nice to

681
00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:45,520
Speaker 3: win for the Timberwolves.

682
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:48,040
Speaker 1: And again just to go back to Gary Payton the second.

683
00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 1: I don't know why I'm struggling to say his name

684
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 1: GP two are you with me? Billups talked about like

685
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:55,320
Speaker 1: his energy, and so did Lillard, like how he's like

686
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:57,840
Speaker 1: a bit of like a like a dynamic player in

687
00:31:57,840 --> 00:31:59,920
Speaker 1: the sense like he's sort of like I guess Alva

688
00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:02,800
Speaker 1: like right where he's like can just change the vibe

689
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:06,080
Speaker 1: of a game because of his hustle. And Billip said, quote,

690
00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:08,080
Speaker 1: you see a guy doing those type of things, diving

691
00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 1: on the floor, kicking it up for the steal. If

692
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:13,640
Speaker 1: you don't match that level of intensity, you look bad

693
00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:15,760
Speaker 1: and it changes things for you. I love that there

694
00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:18,920
Speaker 1: are players like that that can lift your stars or

695
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,840
Speaker 1: your other players, like, oh yeah, I gotta this guy's

696
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:24,320
Speaker 1: this guy's working way harder than I am. I better,

697
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:26,760
Speaker 1: you know, get at it a little bit more, getting

698
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,480
Speaker 1: my defensive stance, hit the glass, you know, dive for

699
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:31,160
Speaker 1: a ball every once in a while. I think it's

700
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 1: true and he is that type of player. So it's

701
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:36,160
Speaker 1: good for the Blazers who have had a really really

702
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:39,320
Speaker 1: good season here a little up and down at times,

703
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:41,840
Speaker 1: but they're in the mix. So maybe this little GP

704
00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:46,120
Speaker 1: two spark get some some more wins here. I think

705
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:47,920
Speaker 1: it will help defensively.

706
00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:50,640
Speaker 2: If a guy who hurt his elbow is diving on

707
00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:54,600
Speaker 2: the floor with an elbow that remains injured. He said

708
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:56,200
Speaker 2: after the game. This is going to be something that

709
00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 2: bothers me throughout the entire season. Yeah, you gotta pick

710
00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:01,880
Speaker 2: it up for me. Alvarado Like, there was somebody doing

711
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:06,200
Speaker 2: the Alvarado sneak last night. I saw it. There's not

712
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,520
Speaker 2: there's just not many sneakers out there. But I don't

713
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:12,080
Speaker 2: I don't know. It snuck past the the video frame

714
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:14,840
Speaker 2: and he couldn't. He couldn't, he couldn't make it happen,

715
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:15,440
Speaker 2: so they didn't.

716
00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:17,200
Speaker 1: Maybe somebody in the stream team.

717
00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:21,040
Speaker 3: I saw Naji Marshall doing it for the Pelicans not

718
00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:23,520
Speaker 3: too long ago. I'm like, they're probably teaching it in

719
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:26,760
Speaker 3: practice now at this point. He's like, right, like, you

720
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:29,320
Speaker 3: spend all day with the guy whose Alvarado seems like

721
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:32,240
Speaker 3: a nice guy, Naji Marshall, young player making his name

722
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:35,480
Speaker 3: in the league. Hey, can you teach me that sneak steal?

723
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 2: Sure?

724
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:37,080
Speaker 4: Man, I gotcha.

725
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:40,240
Speaker 3: They score a basket, just hide squat down. They'll never

726
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:43,040
Speaker 3: see you unfortunately, Naji Marshall a little bit taller.

727
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:44,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, so yeah, quite as good.

728
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:46,120
Speaker 1: Well, you just like when you were saying that, I

729
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:49,640
Speaker 1: was like, should the Pelicans, I mean they have Zion,

730
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:52,160
Speaker 1: but like, or should another team like go get bobon

731
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:56,800
Speaker 1: and then use them as like a shield so then

732
00:33:56,840 --> 00:33:59,520
Speaker 1: like a taller guy could hide behind him, you don't

733
00:33:59,560 --> 00:33:59,880
Speaker 1: have to be.

734
00:33:59,880 --> 00:34:02,040
Speaker 3: A tiny Alvarados doll defense.

735
00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:04,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I like it.

736
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:09,000
Speaker 3: It's very high risk, two players right under the ninety

737
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:09,920
Speaker 3: feet from Europe.

738
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:11,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it might work a couple of times. Yeah,

739
00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:13,960
Speaker 1: I think we should see that. All right, Well let's

740
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,160
Speaker 1: take our first break. Lots more still to get to

741
00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:18,520
Speaker 1: you when we come back. Some bold predictions for the

742
00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:22,759
Speaker 1: twenty twenty three NB season of Go Anywhere, All right

743
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:25,359
Speaker 1: back with the boys here in the classic Factory. Yes,

744
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:30,879
Speaker 1: Tray Kirby with the Bluth like vibes from Arrested Developments.

745
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:34,239
Speaker 1: Did you after the seventy one points for Mitchell walk

746
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:35,960
Speaker 1: into your house because you were watching out on your

747
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:38,239
Speaker 1: porch and just like collapse to the floor.

748
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:42,279
Speaker 3: Just laid down face first, sound like you can't tell

749
00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:43,399
Speaker 3: which way my body's face?

750
00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:46,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was did he flip the No, that's great,

751
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:46,960
Speaker 1: he did.

752
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:47,279
Speaker 3: He did.

753
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:49,080
Speaker 1: Wow, good job, Jerome.

754
00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:50,920
Speaker 3: You can only tell by the hand that's attention to

755
00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:53,200
Speaker 3: detail right there. That's good, it's good stuff.

756
00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right. You couldn't tell them your butter your

757
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:57,240
Speaker 1: dickens for a second.

758
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,160
Speaker 4: Thanks.

759
00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:11,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, the squat's bears skates, dickens squat alright. Also, hey,

760
00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 3: look you'll demonstrate the dickens, the dickensie and squat after

761
00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:17,000
Speaker 3: the show toward social channels.

762
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:20,960
Speaker 1: I fact checked you earlier about a Robin Lopez tweet

763
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:23,440
Speaker 1: that you just had incorrect, and you were fact checking

764
00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 1: me during the break. I may have misspoke when I said, uh,

765
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:30,520
Speaker 1: Lebron was the oldest player ever to score back to

766
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:32,600
Speaker 1: back forties. Is that correct?

767
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:34,920
Speaker 3: Because I know you, it's not correct anymore. Okay, So

768
00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:40,000
Speaker 3: so Jordan, obviously it's Michael Jordan. I've seen some statsu

769
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,879
Speaker 3: here that people think he played for the Washington Wizards. Yeah,

770
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:46,239
Speaker 3: later in his career, but apparently in December of two

771
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:48,279
Speaker 3: thousand and one, he had a fifty one point game

772
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:52,319
Speaker 3: followed by a forty five point game at thirty eight

773
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:55,160
Speaker 3: years and ten months old. Okay, and then he did

774
00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:58,760
Speaker 3: it again. In January of two thirty eight and eleven

775
00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:00,840
Speaker 3: months old, a forty and then a forty?

776
00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:03,000
Speaker 1: Okay, so what did I so? I was? I was

777
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:05,520
Speaker 1: ready then wherever I saw that Lebron stacked because I

778
00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:07,880
Speaker 1: was even then doing the math. Maybe I saw Lebron

779
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:10,719
Speaker 1: oldest player ever to have the most points in a

780
00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:12,440
Speaker 1: two game span. But that wouldn't make sense too if

781
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:15,000
Speaker 1: you said fifty one and forty five, because that's more

782
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:18,440
Speaker 1: than the forty seven and forty three that Lebron went for. Well,

783
00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:18,719
Speaker 1: I don't know.

784
00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:21,040
Speaker 3: Maybe maybe people are finally catching on to this. Michael

785
00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:24,040
Speaker 3: Jordan never really played for the Wind. That can't count.

786
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:26,640
Speaker 1: That can't be real. They crossed it from the record books.

787
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:29,000
Speaker 1: All right, let's get into a fun news segment here

788
00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:40,200
Speaker 1: Bold predictions. Yeah, look into your crystal ball and it

789
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:44,920
Speaker 1: make some bold predictions for the twenty twenty three NBA season.

790
00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:47,760
Speaker 1: Got some fun questions for you guys and for everybody

791
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:50,080
Speaker 1: joining us live here on YouTube or listening to the

792
00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:53,680
Speaker 1: podcast later tweeting your answers at No dunk Sinc. First

793
00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:58,120
Speaker 1: bold prediction question, who is a surprising player? Task that

794
00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:01,840
Speaker 1: will be traded before the line? Here, Surprising is the

795
00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:03,480
Speaker 1: tough part of this because you know a lot of.

796
00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:07,600
Speaker 2: Every team has been named, every player has been named.

797
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:11,280
Speaker 2: We named them a lot, especially on the internet. People

798
00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:14,400
Speaker 2: go deep, right, I mean four hundred names, no problem.

799
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:17,879
Speaker 2: So I think everybody has been named. I have a yeah,

800
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:19,880
Speaker 2: a bolder one and one that I actually think is

801
00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:21,759
Speaker 2: going to happen, a more conservative one. Let's start with

802
00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:25,520
Speaker 2: the bold one, okay. I think Massaiousieri in the Raptors

803
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:29,239
Speaker 2: cash in on ogn Andobi's trade value, that is through

804
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 2: the roof that some as Zach Low has said, would

805
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:37,759
Speaker 2: garner you a package like Donovan Mitchel or Rudy b Well,

806
00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:40,800
Speaker 2: it's wild now a trade partner who likes to wheel

807
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:44,160
Speaker 2: and deal, who likes to gunsling it. David Griffin of

808
00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:46,959
Speaker 2: the New Orleans Pelicans likes to go for it. Last

809
00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:49,960
Speaker 2: year he made the move for CJ McCall. Now we're

810
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:53,680
Speaker 2: seeing Zion Williamson peak, Zion looking extremely good. Hopefully the

811
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:57,200
Speaker 2: hamstring is okay, and then he says, all right, one

812
00:37:57,200 --> 00:37:58,839
Speaker 2: more part one, more part one, more part one, more

813
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:02,120
Speaker 2: part ognob come on over, come on over for a

814
00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:07,279
Speaker 2: package that includes put to a center. Jackson Hayes, all right,

815
00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:08,960
Speaker 2: you're not too excited. I get it, I get it,

816
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:13,520
Speaker 2: But maybe an og anenobe light in herb Jones because

817
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:16,239
Speaker 2: you already have og Annob you don't need him. And

818
00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:18,839
Speaker 2: then there's some younger parts Kyra Lewis. But two draft picks,

819
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:22,080
Speaker 2: two first round draft picks being the juiciest part. You're

820
00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 2: not getting three. Let's let's slow it down, but two

821
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:27,759
Speaker 2: first round draft picks. If Massi u Jeri says it's

822
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:32,359
Speaker 2: time to take this thing down, I think he loves

823
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 2: og a little too much. But at the same time,

824
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:38,200
Speaker 2: Massai will trade his kids, no problem. He's shown it before.

825
00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:41,440
Speaker 2: He would trade Kyle Lower before they won the championships.

826
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:45,799
Speaker 2: So that's mine, that's mine, and it actually works out.

827
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:48,200
Speaker 2: You're throwing another piece there with the Pelicans. It would

828
00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:49,399
Speaker 2: actually work out.

829
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:53,680
Speaker 1: Now some herb Jones too and rightfully, so that's my

830
00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:54,920
Speaker 1: only hang up there.

831
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:57,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, but she got Trey Murphy who's grown into a

832
00:38:57,600 --> 00:38:58,560
Speaker 2: wing type player.

833
00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:00,600
Speaker 4: Squint, what do you got?

834
00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:03,360
Speaker 2: You got Zion and Jonas in the front court, og

835
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:06,160
Speaker 2: and Trey Murphy on the wings to go with C. J. McCollum,

836
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:11,120
Speaker 2: who we maybe that David Griffin would would say, oh,

837
00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:15,799
Speaker 2: I didn't even say you don't need him, you don't

838
00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:19,880
Speaker 2: need him, trade him? Yeah, brandon Ingram gone, you can

839
00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:23,200
Speaker 2: go big Zion at the five. Not good defensively, but yeah,

840
00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:25,759
Speaker 2: that that would make it interesting. You do need you

841
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:29,160
Speaker 2: still need some guards, but Zion is playing guard essentially,

842
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:31,759
Speaker 2: so I don't know if that happens. I doubt it.

843
00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:32,400
Speaker 4: What's the bold.

844
00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:35,080
Speaker 1: Prediction part is? And maybe at this point it's getting

845
00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:37,359
Speaker 1: less and less bold, But the idea that Jerry will

846
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:38,799
Speaker 1: trade I guess O.

847
00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:41,799
Speaker 2: G in your in your case here, I doubt it,

848
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:45,040
Speaker 2: but you're right. It feels like nothing is bold anymore.

849
00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:47,080
Speaker 2: O G has been traded like every day for the

850
00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:51,160
Speaker 2: last three months. But if the raptors, I do think

851
00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:55,120
Speaker 2: him letting go O G, A ANDOB would be bold

852
00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:57,880
Speaker 2: for him, even Messiah. It's gotta love O G.

853
00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:01,239
Speaker 1: Everybody loves yeah, but they doesn't love his team not

854
00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:04,239
Speaker 1: winning games. If the overlap is too similar in your

855
00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:07,120
Speaker 1: OG and you're Scottie and your and then maybe you

856
00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:09,600
Speaker 1: switch it up. Okay, yeah, you know what's your other one?

857
00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:11,000
Speaker 1: Then more realistic one.

858
00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:14,080
Speaker 2: I'll let trade go firsts.

859
00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:15,880
Speaker 3: I don't know if you want to do that to

860
00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:22,600
Speaker 3: ask because my surprising player is not exciting. Yeah, what

861
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:25,680
Speaker 3: about this underwhelming trade target. Honestly, I kind of think

862
00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:27,920
Speaker 3: that Rudy Go Bear trade a little bit ruined the

863
00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:30,560
Speaker 3: trade market because he's not a top ten guy. But

864
00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:32,839
Speaker 3: that's like a top ten package all time that went

865
00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:35,759
Speaker 3: back for Rudy Gobert. So if you're trading somebody who's

866
00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:38,160
Speaker 3: in the top twenty, like a Bradley Beal, I mean,

867
00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:41,279
Speaker 3: he's probably on the borderline there. The Wizards are gonna

868
00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:43,600
Speaker 3: want back of Rudy go Bear package. And is anybody

869
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:45,759
Speaker 3: given that kind of thing up right now? I don't know.

870
00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:48,480
Speaker 3: That's why my surprising player to be traded none other

871
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:50,560
Speaker 3: than Robert Covington.

872
00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:52,160
Speaker 1: Oh, Sir Robert Covings.

873
00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:52,839
Speaker 2: I know, I know.

874
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:55,200
Speaker 3: I didn't hear any fanfare at all when I.

875
00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:56,240
Speaker 1: Said that name out loud.

876
00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:57,800
Speaker 2: But he played all.

877
00:40:57,640 --> 00:41:00,680
Speaker 3: Of seven games and one hundred minutes in decet. He's

878
00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 3: played in four of the last twelve Clippers games. He's

879
00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:06,279
Speaker 3: basically just out of the rotation for LA and they're

880
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:09,480
Speaker 3: probably going to be targeting size going forward because Zubats

881
00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:12,320
Speaker 3: is their only real big guy around. They're going to

882
00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:15,640
Speaker 3: likely run into Nikola Jokic at some point, maybe Zion

883
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:19,160
Speaker 3: as well. Covington hasn't shot the ball well December this season,

884
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:22,000
Speaker 3: but he's thirty six percent in his career. He makes

885
00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:25,120
Speaker 3: less money next season than he does this season. So

886
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:28,040
Speaker 3: if you're a team that needs a stretch five, a

887
00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:32,240
Speaker 3: stretch four, you can probably get Robert Covington from the Clippers.

888
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:34,680
Speaker 3: It wouldn't be dissimilar to like getting a Jay Crowder

889
00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:36,960
Speaker 3: who hasn't been playing for the entire season. You know,

890
00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:39,720
Speaker 3: So I think he'll be on the move exciting times.

891
00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:43,520
Speaker 2: You didn't go salacious, you win. Yeah yeah, went with

892
00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:47,560
Speaker 2: something that's tangible, something that's needed. Sorry, the Clippers have

893
00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:51,360
Speaker 2: one thousand wings. They need to get bigger. It's totally true.

894
00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:52,520
Speaker 2: So that one makes sense.

895
00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:53,560
Speaker 1: Okay, what was here?

896
00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:57,400
Speaker 2: The one? Oh, I've got someone extremely similar. Now I

897
00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:01,800
Speaker 2: start from the Memphis Grizzlies perspective. I think it's time, baby,

898
00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:04,600
Speaker 2: it's time to beef it up a little bit, just

899
00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:07,960
Speaker 2: like the Pelicans. Grizzlies Pelicans, both teams looking at this

900
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:09,520
Speaker 2: Western Conference picture.

901
00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:10,440
Speaker 3: Like maybe we can go for it.

902
00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:11,160
Speaker 1: There's an opening.

903
00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:14,319
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, And so I don't think that Grizzlies want

904
00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:17,680
Speaker 2: to go nuts. I think they love their core but

905
00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:21,680
Speaker 2: they can tinker, and I think they could use a wing.

906
00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:26,480
Speaker 2: The Dylan Brooks experience is a little roller coaster ish

907
00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:29,560
Speaker 2: at time, so why not get somebody a little more stable.

908
00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:32,280
Speaker 2: Harrison Barnes would be my guy, like a Robert Covington.

909
00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:35,719
Speaker 2: Would the Kings want to trade Harrison Barnes when they're

910
00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:38,000
Speaker 2: on the verge of making the first round of the playoffs.

911
00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:41,640
Speaker 2: Maybe not, But if you juice it up with a

912
00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:46,200
Speaker 2: decent enough of a pick, maybe maybe. Then you look

913
00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:48,040
Speaker 2: and you say Dylan Brooks and Desmond Bane in the

914
00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:52,719
Speaker 2: back court plus Dylan Brooks, or plus Dylan Brooks at

915
00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:55,040
Speaker 2: that wing, or if it's Harrison Barnes, who jumps in

916
00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:57,880
Speaker 2: for him with your front court of Jarring Jackson, Junior,

917
00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:00,400
Speaker 2: Steven Adams. It just it props you up a little bit.

918
00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:03,440
Speaker 2: You got Danny Green's expiring contract to trade. It's ready

919
00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:05,080
Speaker 2: to go out the door. He is a member of

920
00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:07,359
Speaker 2: the Memphis Grizzlies. It's ready to go.

921
00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:10,640
Speaker 1: Brian Windhors traded him on the air with himself.

922
00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:14,960
Speaker 2: Yeah right, so yeah, I think I don't know if

923
00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:18,799
Speaker 2: Harrison Barnes is dealt, but former champ, former starter for

924
00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:23,520
Speaker 2: an NBA champion. Yeah, a long time, So he'd be

925
00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:28,040
Speaker 2: a nice stabilizing to the roller coaster experience that is

926
00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:30,719
Speaker 2: Dylan Brooks. Once Dylan Brooks goes out for one game

927
00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:32,719
Speaker 2: and Harrison Barnes goes in there, I don't think he's

928
00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:34,319
Speaker 2: given up the job. Every they love.

929
00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:35,640
Speaker 4: They love Dylan Brooks though.

930
00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:38,560
Speaker 3: They they're talking him up as a potential defensive Player

931
00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:40,880
Speaker 3: of the Year, which is kind of crazy since the

932
00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:42,919
Speaker 3: other defensive player of the year is probably on their team.

933
00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:45,000
Speaker 3: But they should be an og Anobi team more so

934
00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:47,560
Speaker 3: than a Harrison Barnes team. I think OG's only twenty five.

935
00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:50,120
Speaker 3: That's like the missing piece for them. So I think

936
00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:52,600
Speaker 3: the Pelicans and the Grizzlies should both be after Og.

937
00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:54,160
Speaker 3: Really they need the same thing.

938
00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:55,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, they need a wing.

939
00:43:55,080 --> 00:43:56,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like that idea. Last time the Raptors made

940
00:43:56,920 --> 00:44:00,200
Speaker 1: a trade with the Grizzlies, they won a championship. Let's

941
00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:04,160
Speaker 1: do it again. M hmm, marcusol Yeah, I remember. Yeah,

942
00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:08,719
Speaker 1: not that getting back Roddy's gonna bring us a championship

943
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:10,920
Speaker 1: to Toronto. But I like what you're thinking. I think

944
00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 1: there's teams like I mean, the Calves have sort of

945
00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:16,200
Speaker 1: been looking for a wing player two. I think the

946
00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:18,239
Speaker 1: Bucks could use a little more athleticism on the wing.

947
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:20,440
Speaker 1: I know you're like, you love Joeingles being back, but

948
00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:24,200
Speaker 1: like bow Champion, the rookie, probably too soon for him, Nora,

949
00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:26,319
Speaker 1: Not really. I think they could use sort of a

950
00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:28,200
Speaker 1: wing guy. There's a lot of teams that could use, like,

951
00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:30,160
Speaker 1: especially in a playoff series when all these guys can

952
00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:32,440
Speaker 1: go for forty five to fifty points every night, generally

953
00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:34,879
Speaker 1: from the wing positions. Somebody that can maybe make life

954
00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:38,160
Speaker 1: a little more difficult. High demand, but good stuff there, guys.

955
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:39,879
Speaker 1: All right, next one, which team is going to turn

956
00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:42,160
Speaker 1: it around? I want a bold prediction? And what I

957
00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:44,839
Speaker 1: mean by that is sort of looking at like last

958
00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:47,879
Speaker 1: year's Celtics right in a way, a disappointing team. What's

959
00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:49,759
Speaker 1: going on? Are they just straight up bad? And then

960
00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:52,919
Speaker 1: they just like flipped it around in the calendar year

961
00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:54,560
Speaker 1: and in their case went all the way to the

962
00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:57,239
Speaker 1: finals nearly won the whole damn thing. Is there a

963
00:44:57,280 --> 00:45:00,480
Speaker 1: team that you believe, truly believe bold prediction can turn

964
00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:00,880
Speaker 1: it around?

965
00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:02,920
Speaker 3: Here you go, we believe that the Warriors will finish

966
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:05,359
Speaker 3: with the top four seed in the Western Conference. Of course,

967
00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:08,160
Speaker 3: we had got this question a little bit early because

968
00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:10,680
Speaker 3: now they're rolling. They're only two games out of fourth

969
00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:12,919
Speaker 3: right now, though, and they're figuring out how to win

970
00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:16,920
Speaker 3: without their most important offensive player obviously in Steph Curry,

971
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:20,120
Speaker 3: and their best wing defender in Wiggins. It's just a

972
00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:23,080
Speaker 3: matter of time really before the Warriors are a home

973
00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:27,279
Speaker 3: court advantage team. They've been awesome at home, so they're

974
00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:29,640
Speaker 3: gonna see the value in actually being a home court

975
00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 3: advantage team. So I think it's very likely that the

976
00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:35,160
Speaker 3: Warriors go on a run here because they're already going

977
00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:37,640
Speaker 3: on a run, so not super exciting. That's fine, they're

978
00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:37,960
Speaker 3: gonna do it.

979
00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:40,040
Speaker 1: Yes, Well, this is tough because I was looking at

980
00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:41,719
Speaker 1: the teams, like if you were really trying to like

981
00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:46,000
Speaker 1: just get this to a list disappointing teams after you

982
00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:48,719
Speaker 1: remove teams that we thought would be bad. Are in

983
00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:51,960
Speaker 1: the East, the Hawks, the Bulls, and the Raptors. Right,

984
00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:54,799
Speaker 1: those three teams, I don't think they're really anyone else.

985
00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:56,920
Speaker 1: I mean, because the Heat I guess are sort of

986
00:45:57,080 --> 00:45:59,600
Speaker 1: they're like they're getting up there, they're getting there shit together.

987
00:45:59,680 --> 00:46:02,040
Speaker 1: And the West it's probably just the Wolves and the Lakers,

988
00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:06,200
Speaker 1: Like there are sub five hundred disappointing teams, So I mean,

989
00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:07,399
Speaker 1: unless you have another team that.

990
00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:10,919
Speaker 2: The Brooklyn Nuts have done it over the last month,

991
00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:15,080
Speaker 2: extremely surprising that they've turned it around. I think the

992
00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:18,400
Speaker 2: Golden State Warriors will get up there to to literally

993
00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:22,000
Speaker 2: to bang with all the big boys in the Western Conference.

994
00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:25,480
Speaker 2: Outside of the Denver Nuggets. I think the Warriors would

995
00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:28,080
Speaker 2: be the favorite in the Western Conference, which is a

996
00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:31,799
Speaker 2: little bonkers to say, but their starting five remains the

997
00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:34,200
Speaker 2: best starting five in the NBA and they just have

998
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:37,000
Speaker 2: to get it on the floor. Will it happened soon enough?

999
00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:39,480
Speaker 2: I think so the way they've handled it six and

1000
00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:41,480
Speaker 2: three since Steph Curry has gone down.

1001
00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:43,600
Speaker 1: And was supposed to be back, and then I think

1002
00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:47,960
Speaker 1: got sick again, Yes, sick. What's he got? Flew going around,

1003
00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:48,480
Speaker 1: but it does.

1004
00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:53,040
Speaker 2: He's ill. Not in a good way. Yeah, I don't know.

1005
00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:54,880
Speaker 2: They just said that he's got an illness.

1006
00:46:56,719 --> 00:46:59,000
Speaker 1: So you're going Warriors too. They were cheating a little

1007
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:00,520
Speaker 1: bit because they are I guess above five.

1008
00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:03,640
Speaker 2: Hundred and yeah, but there's nobody.

1009
00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:05,080
Speaker 1: Okay, So I guess you were saying you don't believe

1010
00:47:05,120 --> 00:47:07,280
Speaker 1: in the Hawks, Bulls Rafters to turn season.

1011
00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:10,520
Speaker 3: Those are Bulls just turned theres around. Actually, I don't

1012
00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:12,160
Speaker 3: know if you noticed this, but since they gave up

1013
00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:14,480
Speaker 3: one hundred and fifty points to the Minnesota Timberwolves had

1014
00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:17,440
Speaker 3: a team meeting. They're five and three. Since then, they

1015
00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:20,160
Speaker 3: lost to the Rockets in the ngoon game, which I

1016
00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:22,040
Speaker 3: took in with my own eyes. Then they lost to

1017
00:47:22,080 --> 00:47:25,440
Speaker 3: the Calves by one, and the Calves in overtime. Zach

1018
00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:28,000
Speaker 3: Lavine has turned the corner. He's looking good basically ever

1019
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:29,919
Speaker 3: since they sat him down and said, hey, start playing

1020
00:47:29,960 --> 00:47:32,240
Speaker 3: better now. If you guys call it this update, Lonzo

1021
00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:40,640
Speaker 3: Ball is barely jumping washing so he this season, we

1022
00:47:40,680 --> 00:47:42,399
Speaker 3: shall see. But if he comes back, man, the Bulls

1023
00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:43,600
Speaker 3: are already peeking right now.

1024
00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:48,279
Speaker 2: All right, they look good. I want to Yeah, looks good.

1025
00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:52,239
Speaker 1: What about the Suns for this answer? Yeah once, if

1026
00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:54,359
Speaker 1: they ever get Devin Booker, I mean, we've that's we mind.

1027
00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:57,280
Speaker 1: How important Devin Booker is. I mean that's pretty apparent

1028
00:47:57,360 --> 00:48:01,640
Speaker 1: because CP is looking old and Eaton's just practicing granny

1029
00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:02,319
Speaker 1: shots from half court.

1030
00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:02,880
Speaker 2: I'm kidding, you know.

1031
00:48:02,960 --> 00:48:04,399
Speaker 1: I was on the Eaton train there for a while.

1032
00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:06,000
Speaker 1: He was putting up really really good numbers, and when

1033
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:08,359
Speaker 1: they were winning when Booker was there. But people think

1034
00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:11,040
Speaker 1: they're gonna maybe it's the Jay Crowder move, which we've

1035
00:48:11,040 --> 00:48:12,799
Speaker 1: just been waiting for. But they might need to do

1036
00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:15,160
Speaker 1: something too here to sort of salvage a season that's

1037
00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:18,440
Speaker 1: slipping away a little bit. You know, they could be here.

1038
00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:19,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I had them on my list.

1039
00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:22,560
Speaker 2: All right, and they are injured obviously Booker, but it

1040
00:48:22,560 --> 00:48:24,640
Speaker 2: would help to have Cam Johnson in there as well,

1041
00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:28,080
Speaker 2: so it that's probably gonna come within. But the problem

1042
00:48:28,080 --> 00:48:30,239
Speaker 2: is Booker's out at least another yeah, like three and

1043
00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:30,480
Speaker 2: a half.

1044
00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:32,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like an or that's a while.

1045
00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:34,360
Speaker 2: But uh, I kind of want to buy the Hawks,

1046
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:37,360
Speaker 2: but their schedule is really really tough. If they had

1047
00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:39,319
Speaker 2: a little home stretch. The reason why I would buy

1048
00:48:39,360 --> 00:48:41,759
Speaker 2: the Hawks is because when their backs are against the wall,

1049
00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:45,840
Speaker 2: when they actually see that, oh damn, we're not gonna

1050
00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:48,880
Speaker 2: climb the standings this season, then they'll start to play

1051
00:48:49,560 --> 00:48:52,959
Speaker 2: and that point is coming. But the schedule is so hard.

1052
00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:57,000
Speaker 2: They've got so many tough not not only tough home games,

1053
00:48:57,000 --> 00:48:59,399
Speaker 2: but they're on the road a lot. So I want

1054
00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:00,080
Speaker 2: to let's.

1055
00:48:59,880 --> 00:49:02,279
Speaker 1: Go on with Nate McMillan. I mean, Sean said he

1056
00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:06,200
Speaker 1: thought about resigning. He rejected that should they just move

1057
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:08,719
Speaker 1: on and go with another coach. It's worked before for them.

1058
00:49:10,800 --> 00:49:12,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, just switch it up.

1059
00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:16,920
Speaker 1: All right? Next one here bold predictions surprising player to

1060
00:49:17,200 --> 00:49:22,120
Speaker 1: crash the MVP table. Okay, so let's just clarify we

1061
00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:24,040
Speaker 1: have I know we've cheated a little bit. We usually

1062
00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:25,839
Speaker 1: say it's five guys, but I think we have six

1063
00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:29,920
Speaker 1: guys sitting at the MVP table. It's Jokic, it's Luca,

1064
00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:35,640
Speaker 1: it's Yannis, it's Embeid, it's Katie, and it's Tatum. Right,

1065
00:49:36,280 --> 00:49:38,600
Speaker 1: those are the six, and we cannot bring a seventh

1066
00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:41,920
Speaker 1: chair to the table. It's already two crowded. There's Ja

1067
00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:44,520
Speaker 1: Moran over by the bar, there's Zion over by the bar.

1068
00:49:44,880 --> 00:49:46,680
Speaker 1: A couple other guys like going in and out of

1069
00:49:46,680 --> 00:49:47,280
Speaker 1: the restaurant.

1070
00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:49,680
Speaker 4: But who do you.

1071
00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:52,799
Speaker 1: Think, and I don't mean this like who's gonna win MVP? Like, oh,

1072
00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:55,480
Speaker 1: what a shock? I just think there's many times where

1073
00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:58,440
Speaker 1: a guy has like a two week run where we're like, oh,

1074
00:49:58,680 --> 00:50:01,120
Speaker 1: you know, Demarto Rosen, for example, Paul George has been

1075
00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:03,160
Speaker 1: an example before We're like, well, what a what a

1076
00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:05,640
Speaker 1: run they're putting together? Here? They maybe sat down at

1077
00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:07,719
Speaker 1: the MVP table for a second. So who could be

1078
00:50:07,719 --> 00:50:08,520
Speaker 1: a surprising player?

1079
00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:11,600
Speaker 3: Trey gopherst Donovan. Mitchell just texted nicolea. Jokic and said,

1080
00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:15,000
Speaker 3: you guys got any room over there right now? Donovan

1081
00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:18,680
Speaker 3: unfortunately not right now, but get that field goal percentage

1082
00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:21,000
Speaker 3: up a little bit, get that free throw percentage up

1083
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:23,399
Speaker 3: a little bit. He's at twenty nine points per game

1084
00:50:23,440 --> 00:50:26,920
Speaker 3: on forty nine percent field goal shooting, forty one from three,

1085
00:50:27,080 --> 00:50:30,000
Speaker 3: and eighty six from the free throw line. He's knocking

1086
00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:32,160
Speaker 3: on the door of fifty forty ninety with thirty points

1087
00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:34,719
Speaker 3: per game. The schedule gets easier for the Cavs in

1088
00:50:34,760 --> 00:50:36,839
Speaker 3: the second half of the season, and it will get

1089
00:50:36,920 --> 00:50:39,920
Speaker 3: even easier, I'm sure as the Detroit and Orlandos of

1090
00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:41,880
Speaker 3: the world really pack it in at the end of

1091
00:50:41,920 --> 00:50:45,600
Speaker 3: the year. He's only eighth on the Basketball Reference MVP

1092
00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:49,680
Speaker 3: tracker because it over values rebounding. I hate to say it,

1093
00:50:50,360 --> 00:50:52,080
Speaker 3: but I think Mitchell is gonna make a little bit

1094
00:50:52,080 --> 00:50:54,239
Speaker 3: of a run here. Obviously, he's an incredible player, he'll

1095
00:50:54,320 --> 00:50:57,120
Speaker 3: likely start in the All Star Game, and thirty points

1096
00:50:57,160 --> 00:51:00,279
Speaker 3: per game fifty forty ninety kind of undeniable to at

1097
00:51:00,360 --> 00:51:01,080
Speaker 3: least be in the mix.

1098
00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:04,320
Speaker 1: Let's just say this, if Mitchell follows up a seventy

1099
00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:06,880
Speaker 1: one point game with like a fifty burger, which is

1100
00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:09,880
Speaker 1: not that far fetched really in today's NBA, he'll be like,

1101
00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:12,560
Speaker 1: he'll immediately be sitting there. He'll have somebody will have

1102
00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:14,320
Speaker 1: to get up and at least have them keep the

1103
00:51:14,600 --> 00:51:16,760
Speaker 1: seat warm. Like, if that happens, that's a good pick.

1104
00:51:16,800 --> 00:51:19,360
Speaker 1: After the seventy one last night, anyone else surprised?

1105
00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:23,440
Speaker 2: And yeah, the Mitchell growth is wild. You'd think after

1106
00:51:23,480 --> 00:51:25,560
Speaker 2: coming from Utah now playing with a couple of all stars,

1107
00:51:25,600 --> 00:51:29,600
Speaker 2: that his numbers would drop. Yeah, uh uh. Usage rate drops,

1108
00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:32,800
Speaker 2: but he's become more efficient, career highs in points, field

1109
00:51:32,800 --> 00:51:38,080
Speaker 2: goal percentage, three point percentage, free throw percentage. He is

1110
00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:40,719
Speaker 2: having a great, great season. I don't know how you

1111
00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:44,120
Speaker 2: can pick anybody to join the table. We've named every guy.

1112
00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:48,600
Speaker 2: We've named every guy. Every guy has been named. The

1113
00:51:48,719 --> 00:51:53,640
Speaker 2: table has people sitting on it, under it, it's packed.

1114
00:51:54,120 --> 00:51:56,960
Speaker 2: Steph was there, obviously hurts. I guess he would be

1115
00:51:57,000 --> 00:51:59,120
Speaker 2: a surprise if he joins again. But I think that's

1116
00:51:59,160 --> 00:52:01,720
Speaker 2: a decent one to sneak in there because the Warriors

1117
00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:07,120
Speaker 2: could jump in the standings because they definitely value getting

1118
00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:09,719
Speaker 2: the flow going, getting good before the playoffs. They're not

1119
00:52:09,800 --> 00:52:11,839
Speaker 2: like a Clippers team, although the Clippers are gonna try.

1120
00:52:12,120 --> 00:52:13,840
Speaker 2: The Warriors are going to try and win games in

1121
00:52:13,920 --> 00:52:15,640
Speaker 2: January and February, so I think they could climb the

1122
00:52:15,640 --> 00:52:19,000
Speaker 2: standings and stuff could be up there. Mitchell's great Zion

1123
00:52:19,160 --> 00:52:24,080
Speaker 2: is another sneaky one if he stays healthy. But everybody's

1124
00:52:24,080 --> 00:52:26,200
Speaker 2: been named man, no way, I.

1125
00:52:26,120 --> 00:52:28,959
Speaker 1: Got one guy that's gonna show up for like three

1126
00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:31,600
Speaker 1: days if he stays playing at the level he's playing

1127
00:52:31,800 --> 00:52:33,560
Speaker 1: and his team keeps winning. Because I was like looking

1128
00:52:33,600 --> 00:52:35,759
Speaker 1: at this like who hasn't even really been in the

1129
00:52:35,840 --> 00:52:39,480
Speaker 1: in the restaurant yet, They've just parked, but they're still outside.

1130
00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:42,359
Speaker 1: Who has a team that needs to improve? I think

1131
00:52:42,400 --> 00:52:43,799
Speaker 1: that's a big part of it, right, It's like tough.

1132
00:52:44,160 --> 00:52:45,799
Speaker 1: These guys at the top are on the best team.

1133
00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:47,960
Speaker 1: So we need a team that's like sort of disappointed

1134
00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:49,840
Speaker 1: a little bit, but could like win a bunch of games,

1135
00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:52,040
Speaker 1: maybe get up there into like a home court advantage.

1136
00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:55,040
Speaker 1: And then I think a guy to help his chances

1137
00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:56,960
Speaker 1: to get in this MVP discussion would have to be

1138
00:52:57,000 --> 00:52:59,520
Speaker 1: like looked at like as a defensive guy too, because

1139
00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:01,640
Speaker 1: it has to be like, well, we have like a

1140
00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:04,759
Speaker 1: million guys scoring forty point. Yeah, like just like this

1141
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:07,680
Speaker 1: guy also brings it defensively, you know, not like that

1142
00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:10,560
Speaker 1: Embiid and Giannis don't and stuff like that. But Bam

1143
00:53:10,600 --> 00:53:13,960
Speaker 1: out of Bayo, I think Bam could have a like

1144
00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:17,319
Speaker 1: a small window where he sits down maybe for a week,

1145
00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:20,560
Speaker 1: and over his last four games, Bam is averaging I mean,

1146
00:53:20,600 --> 00:53:22,919
Speaker 1: these don't even sound that impressive, I guess, but twenty seven,

1147
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:26,680
Speaker 1: eleven and two, and then he's shooting fifty nine percent

1148
00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:28,960
Speaker 1: from the floor and he's included here's the defense part

1149
00:53:28,960 --> 00:53:31,080
Speaker 1: where basically two steals per game and like you know,

1150
00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:32,680
Speaker 1: round up a little bit a block and a half

1151
00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:35,600
Speaker 1: a game. It's a lot of stocks. So they're winning,

1152
00:53:35,680 --> 00:53:37,359
Speaker 1: and they won three of those four games that he's

1153
00:53:37,520 --> 00:53:40,399
Speaker 1: put up. These monster numbers, I think they're I think

1154
00:53:40,440 --> 00:53:42,840
Speaker 1: they're undefeated. The heat r when he scores thirty points

1155
00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:44,560
Speaker 1: in a game, I think they're seven and zero. So

1156
00:53:44,600 --> 00:53:46,719
Speaker 1: I just see Bam like a small little window here

1157
00:53:47,040 --> 00:53:48,680
Speaker 1: because they could like get up there. They're like twenty

1158
00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:53,160
Speaker 1: and eighteen. So now we've named everybody. Now yeh bam

1159
00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:55,920
Speaker 1: out of Baio, a surprising player to crash the MVP table,

1160
00:53:56,400 --> 00:53:58,839
Speaker 1: eat a eat like a jalapeno popper, and then leaf

1161
00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:00,759
Speaker 1: I'm not paid for.

1162
00:54:03,120 --> 00:54:05,480
Speaker 3: I wouldn't expect him to. Honestly, If it's just one puff,

1163
00:54:05,560 --> 00:54:05,959
Speaker 3: that's fine.

1164
00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:07,960
Speaker 1: No, I mean you could have actually multiple.

1165
00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:08,720
Speaker 2: I think that's.

1166
00:54:10,040 --> 00:54:10,960
Speaker 1: If they're there already.

1167
00:54:11,200 --> 00:54:15,080
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, sure man, Yeah yeah.

1168
00:54:14,760 --> 00:54:17,719
Speaker 1: Okay, final one here bold predictions, This is just a

1169
00:54:17,719 --> 00:54:21,880
Speaker 1: fun one. Who joins the fifty point game club next?

1170
00:54:22,320 --> 00:54:25,160
Speaker 1: And I mean we were gonna go sixty, which we

1171
00:54:25,360 --> 00:54:29,000
Speaker 1: maybe should have, but fifty points is uh way more

1172
00:54:29,040 --> 00:54:32,040
Speaker 1: doable in today's game. We've had nine guys score fifty

1173
00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:36,760
Speaker 1: points at least once this season. Lucas done it three times,

1174
00:54:36,840 --> 00:54:40,040
Speaker 1: including that one sixty point game, Booker and Embiid did

1175
00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:43,520
Speaker 1: it twice. And then now after last night with two

1176
00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:46,120
Speaker 1: more guys being added to the list. Mitchell seventy one,

1177
00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:48,719
Speaker 1: Anthony Davis had a fifty five, Clay fifty four last night,

1178
00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:51,440
Speaker 1: Siakam fifty two, Garland fifty one, and Curry had a

1179
00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:56,879
Speaker 1: fifty burger. So that's nine guys. Who's next? Tess who

1180
00:54:56,920 --> 00:54:57,200
Speaker 1: you got?

1181
00:54:57,280 --> 00:55:00,640
Speaker 2: Well? I wanted to go deep in the queue, somebody

1182
00:55:00,680 --> 00:55:04,279
Speaker 2: who hasn't even sniffed fifty. To make it a little

1183
00:55:04,280 --> 00:55:06,919
Speaker 2: more interesting, I'm going with Devin Vaselle of the San

1184
00:55:06,920 --> 00:55:08,040
Speaker 2: Antonio Spurs.

1185
00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:09,360
Speaker 3: That's a pow.

1186
00:55:09,440 --> 00:55:12,200
Speaker 2: That's a career high of twenty nine points. But I

1187
00:55:12,239 --> 00:55:14,640
Speaker 2: think the ingredients are there. He shoots a lot of threes,

1188
00:55:15,080 --> 00:55:17,200
Speaker 2: so that helps. So he shoots seven threes a game.

1189
00:55:17,360 --> 00:55:20,440
Speaker 2: It's a San Antonio Spurs team that everyone's overlooking. Now

1190
00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:23,160
Speaker 2: what about in a few weeks, what about a month,

1191
00:55:23,160 --> 00:55:25,359
Speaker 2: everybody's going to be overlooking them, and so he could

1192
00:55:25,360 --> 00:55:30,160
Speaker 2: get hot. Is a He's an incredible shooter. I'm buying

1193
00:55:30,480 --> 00:55:35,000
Speaker 2: Devin Vessel's career in the NBA. And he's Uh. I

1194
00:55:35,040 --> 00:55:37,040
Speaker 2: thought I thought him as a tiny guy, but he's

1195
00:55:37,120 --> 00:55:41,560
Speaker 2: he's thicker than I thought. I think he's. He's he's

1196
00:55:41,719 --> 00:55:45,239
Speaker 2: got a long career ahead of him. That's a big jump, though,

1197
00:55:45,280 --> 00:55:47,400
Speaker 2: twenty one points. Basically that would be.

1198
00:55:47,400 --> 00:55:50,120
Speaker 1: All he said his career highs twenty nine Yeah, exactly, Okay,

1199
00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:50,480
Speaker 1: it's not.

1200
00:55:50,520 --> 00:55:53,680
Speaker 2: Quite it's not quite a bold. It's even more than

1201
00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:56,920
Speaker 2: Andre Miller and his jump. Remember when Andre Miller had

1202
00:55:56,920 --> 00:55:59,160
Speaker 2: a wild fifty point game right his career high was

1203
00:55:59,200 --> 00:56:04,560
Speaker 2: thirty seven before that, so it's Terrence Ross's rossish, I guess.

1204
00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:06,480
Speaker 2: But even Terrence Ross had more than twenty nine, so

1205
00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:07,440
Speaker 2: this just ain't gonna happen.

1206
00:56:08,520 --> 00:56:10,799
Speaker 1: But it's not gonna happen next probably, But I like that.

1207
00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:12,720
Speaker 1: You're like, this is gonna be a wild card fifty

1208
00:56:12,760 --> 00:56:15,040
Speaker 1: pointer at the end of the year. Here, what about you,

1209
00:56:15,080 --> 00:56:17,480
Speaker 1: Trey Okay? So next, I think it's going to be

1210
00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:17,839
Speaker 1: a star.

1211
00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:21,600
Speaker 3: I think Nikola Jokic gets a fifty burger, just needs one,

1212
00:56:21,640 --> 00:56:23,239
Speaker 3: you know, to stay at the table, just like, Hey,

1213
00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:25,480
Speaker 3: remember me, I had a terrible game last night too,

1214
00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:28,080
Speaker 3: only twenty four nine and seven week sauce. That's like

1215
00:56:28,120 --> 00:56:30,120
Speaker 3: a half for a lot of these guys. And then

1216
00:56:30,440 --> 00:56:33,239
Speaker 3: a fifty point game we will see from a random dude.

1217
00:56:33,280 --> 00:56:35,479
Speaker 3: I think Jalen Green will have a ten three pointer game.

1218
00:56:35,719 --> 00:56:39,000
Speaker 3: The guy's just an explosive kind of score. Eventually, teams

1219
00:56:39,040 --> 00:56:40,960
Speaker 3: are gonna care even less about playing against the Rockets,

1220
00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:43,879
Speaker 3: but they play super fast. He loves to shoot, so yeah,

1221
00:56:43,880 --> 00:56:45,560
Speaker 3: he hasn't had a fifty point game yet in his career.

1222
00:56:45,560 --> 00:56:46,160
Speaker 3: I think we'll get one.

1223
00:56:46,200 --> 00:56:50,240
Speaker 1: I love it. Who joins the fifty point club next

1224
00:56:51,000 --> 00:56:52,719
Speaker 1: Here's what I did for this. I looked into my

1225
00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:56,200
Speaker 1: crystal ball, and within it was the NBA schedule and

1226
00:56:56,239 --> 00:56:59,160
Speaker 1: tonight's gemes. Because it's likely it'll just happen tonight.

1227
00:56:59,160 --> 00:56:59,879
Speaker 4: It's a great point.

1228
00:57:00,120 --> 00:57:04,600
Speaker 1: So Celtic's thunder Tatum hasn't done it yet. Brown could

1229
00:57:04,600 --> 00:57:07,000
Speaker 1: do it. Sga could do it all right, could be

1230
00:57:07,080 --> 00:57:10,280

Speaker 1: it on YouTube where it's like, oh I'm ten seconds ahead,

1249
00:58:06,080 --> 00:58:08,200
Speaker 1: I'm five seconds behind you, it completely gets rid of

1257
00:58:29,600 --> 00:58:32,520
Speaker 1: basically had to take the heat because Tass and I

1258
00:58:32,520 --> 00:58:34,720

1259
00:58:34,760 --> 00:58:39,120

00:58:47,480 --> 00:58:48,360
Speaker 1: That's right, my man.

1264
00:58:49,120 --> 00:58:51,200
Speaker 3: I'm a little nervous those skeets because I took all

1265
00:58:51,200 --> 00:58:53,040

1266
00:58:53,040 --> 00:58:54,160

1270
00:59:04,480 --> 00:59:07,280
Speaker 1: the month of January. You're up one game. You're perfect.

1271
00:59:07,400 --> 00:59:08,920
Speaker 1: Want to know, whirling what what's tonight's game?

1272
00:59:08,960 --> 00:59:09,000
Speaker 3: To?

1273
00:59:09,120 --> 00:59:10,000
Speaker 1: Only three to pick from them?

1274
00:59:10,040 --> 00:59:12,360
Speaker 2: Only three nights or three games on the scat, which

1275
00:59:12,360 --> 00:59:15,400
Speaker 2: I think is the perfect amount of games. I love it.

1276
00:59:15,480 --> 00:59:17,360
Speaker 2: I love it. You can really take in each game.

1277
00:59:18,480 --> 00:59:22,600
Speaker 2: Washington at Milwaukee, huge spread. Bucks are favored by eight

1278
00:59:22,720 --> 00:59:23,920
Speaker 2: point five points.

1279
00:59:24,680 --> 00:59:27,480
Speaker 1: What the Wizards have one? Like five or six or.

1280
00:59:27,480 --> 00:59:31,920
Speaker 2: Row five in a row walking into Milwaukee? What are

1281
00:59:31,960 --> 00:59:33,680
Speaker 2: they gonna do? Well? I think they're gonna keep it close.

1282
00:59:33,720 --> 00:59:35,360
Speaker 2: So that's why I'm taking the Wizards. Why do you

1283
00:59:35,360 --> 00:59:36,680
Speaker 2: guys think that the box?

1284
00:59:36,840 --> 00:59:39,840
Speaker 1: I mean because the line was rushing odd. I was like,

1285
00:59:39,880 --> 00:59:41,840
Speaker 1: what's going on here? What do they know? I'm always

1286
00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:44,760
Speaker 1: like convinced they know something, honest is going for fifty

1287
00:59:44,800 --> 00:59:45,360
Speaker 1: to night, that's what they do.

1288
00:59:45,480 --> 00:59:48,520
Speaker 2: Well, there's no Bradley Beal. I highly yeah, yeah, that's

1289
00:59:48,520 --> 00:59:50,960
Speaker 2: better for the Wizards. Man. They've been doing very well

1290
00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:53,520
Speaker 2: without him. Yeah, and he's got to be playing. I

1291
00:59:53,560 --> 00:59:57,240
Speaker 2: assume he sat out there their last game on Sunday,

1292
00:59:57,280 --> 00:59:59,840
Speaker 2: so I assume he's playing. I assume Drew's playing as well.

1293
01:00:00,760 --> 01:00:02,680
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, there was that. Yeah, I mean it was

1294

Speaker 1: Oh you think I went.

1384
01:03:58,880 --> 01:04:01,320
Speaker 3: And added up how many points Luka Doncic has scored

1385
01:04:01,640 --> 01:04:02,480
Speaker 3: over five games?

1386
01:04:02,560 --> 01:04:04,400
Speaker 4: No way I did that, but I did read it.

1387
01:04:04,400 --> 01:04:06,480
Speaker 1: It wasn't Elias, it was Ezekiel.

1388
01:04:09,400 --> 01:04:10,760
Speaker 4: Was wrestling arresting.

1389
01:04:12,040 --> 01:04:14,120
Speaker 1: I don't even think it makes sense, aym already.

1390
01:04:13,880 --> 01:04:15,200
Speaker 4: But anyway, he was by Ezekiel.

1391
01:04:15,240 --> 01:04:17,880
Speaker 3: Now there was like he was like his uh, basically

1392
01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:18,760
Speaker 3: his twin brother.

1393
01:04:21,720 --> 01:04:23,240
Speaker 1: Right, clip this. Let's make this a short.

1394
01:04:23,480 --> 01:04:29,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, put it out. Oh is that what I was saying? Yeah,

1395
01:04:29,160 --> 01:04:33,120
Speaker 2: I am also in a liars Terry. I said, Terrence

1396
01:04:33,200 --> 01:04:37,080
Speaker 2: Ross his that his this is this is a deep cut. Anyways,

1397
01:04:37,080 --> 01:04:39,160
Speaker 2: what's more interesting? Terrence Ross had a fifty point game

1398
01:04:39,400 --> 01:04:41,680
Speaker 2: back in his second season. I'm surprised by that that

1399
01:04:41,760 --> 01:04:45,240
Speaker 2: it was that early in his career twenty fourteen. I

1400
01:04:45,280 --> 01:04:47,720
Speaker 2: did say that his career high before that was higher

1401
01:04:47,760 --> 01:04:50,240
Speaker 2: than twenty nine. He had only had twenty six before

1402
01:04:50,280 --> 01:04:52,439
Speaker 2: having a fifty point game, and he was the first

1403
01:04:52,440 --> 01:04:54,600
Speaker 2: player in NBA history to have a fifty point game

1404
01:04:54,760 --> 01:04:57,479
Speaker 2: while averaging under ten points per game.

1405
01:04:57,720 --> 01:04:59,880
Speaker 1: Tony delt that's what averaging over ten the years.

1406
01:05:00,160 --> 01:05:04,400
Speaker 2: It is absolutely so. You can't. Don't fact check me

1407
01:05:04,440 --> 01:05:05,520
Speaker 2: on my checking.

1408
01:05:05,560 --> 01:05:07,160

Speaker 1: I'm not afraid.

Speaker 4: That's why we do it live.

1411
01:05:11,160 --> 01:05:15,080
Speaker 2: Tier Ross went from twenty six, oh if I'm correct,

1412
01:05:15,400 --> 01:05:19,000
Speaker 2: to fifty one a guy averaging under ten points per game.

1413
01:05:19,040 --> 01:05:20,240
Speaker 2: Anything is possible.

1414
