1
00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:06,560
Speaker 1: This is what it would look like if an Australian

2
00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:09,680
Speaker 1: person was ordering Starbucks and then they ran out of coldbrew. Hey,

3
00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:10,520
Speaker 1: welcome to Starbucks.

4
00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:11,399

55
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,000

00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:43,079
Speaker 5: Seventy eight to go.

58
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, we might do it this show. We might do

59
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,640
Speaker 2: this show. That'd be great. Okay, So here's the plan

60
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 2: on today's show. Eleven games on last night. Let's touch

61
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 2: on every single one of them, and I've broken them

62
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:57,640
Speaker 2: up into the Eastern Conference sort of wins and the

63
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 2: Western Conference wins. Let's start in the East because Trey,

64
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 2: I think we absolutely have to start with DeMar Derozen

65
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,760
Speaker 2: breaking Wilt's record as the Bulls beat the Kings one.

66
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 1: A man, we absolutely do skeets. What a Wednesday for

67
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 1: the Chicago Bulls. In the morning, Zach Lavine tweeted a

68
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:17,359
Speaker 1: picture of Snoop Dogg.

69
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 2: What did it mean?

70
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 1: We didn't know, right, he was blessing up you know.

71
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,800
Speaker 1: It was a good news for zach Lavine. Did he

72
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 1: just get around to watching the Super Bowl? It was

73
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 1: impossible to figure out until we found out that he

74
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 1: had a visit with the knee specialist and it actually

75
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 1: went well, got a second opinion and it turned out

76
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 1: to be good news. He's cleared to play after the

77
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 1: All Star break though also kind of during the All

78
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 1: Star break. Might still get in, Yeah, I don't know,

79
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,880
Speaker 1: shoot some threes, getting that three point contest. Maybe make

80
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 1: one appearance, throw down a gentle dunk and land on

81
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 1: your good knee, and then just go back and sit

82
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:51,560
Speaker 1: on the bench. Get ready for the second half of

83
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 1: the season. Also, Alex Caruso cleared for dribbling and shooting

84
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 1: in the next seven to ten days. So that's some

85
00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 1: great news for the Bulls. That's in the morning. In

86
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 1: the afternoon, there's a GQ feature by Tyler Tynes on

87
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 1: DeMar de Rosen and if I were in Chicago, I

88
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 1: would have ordered an Italian beef. That's how I would

89
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 1: have spent my afternoon. Not that big of news to

90
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 1: be playing with this, but at nighttime, DeMar de Rosan

91
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 1: did it again, thirty eight points to give the Bulls

92
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,080
Speaker 1: thirty eight wins and head into the all start break

93
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,680
Speaker 1: in first place. When I'm gonna be you guessed at

94
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 1: thirty eight years old, shout out to Samuel No No

95
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 1: for that one. What's it mean? It means the Bulls

96
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 1: are back, and it means DeRozan broke Wilt Chamberlain's record.

97
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 1: I love a cherry Picks step.

98
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:32,600
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, but it ain't a.

99
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,720
Speaker 1: Record unless you can just look it up. You can

100
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 1: go to Basketball Reference and look at the career leaders.

101
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 1: See Kareem abdul Jabbar the all time leading scorer. That,

102
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,760
Speaker 1: my friends, is a record. This is a hilarious record,

103
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,119
Speaker 1: and it's honestly just the hot streak. Thirty eight points

104
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 1: for DeRozan last night, sixteen of twenty seven shooting. That's

105
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,599
Speaker 1: seven straight games with thirty five or more points on

106
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 1: fifty percent or more shooting. He's shooting the lights out.

107
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: We're shooting the lights out in here. The Kings were

108
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,320
Speaker 1: doubling him on inbounds passes in the last minute in

109
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 1: the half of this game, just so he didn't get

110
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 1: to forty points. And honestly, the Bulls needed all of

111
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,479
Speaker 1: his shot making once again in the fourth quarter because

112
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,200
Speaker 1: the Kings did keep scrapping into the buzzer trying to

113
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 1: make it into this play in tournament. Drozen in the

114
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 1: fourth quarter twelve points and three assists. I think that's

115
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,839
Speaker 1: an underrated part of this streak that Derozen's been on.

116
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 1: He's still like six assists per game, so he's making

117
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,840
Speaker 1: the right plays when it comes down to scoring or

118
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,600
Speaker 1: choosing to be a playmaker. Kobe White also scored thirteen

119
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:27,720
Speaker 1: points in the fourth quarter. He finished with thirty one

120
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:29,839
Speaker 1: on the night. He's been really solid the past couple

121
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 1: of weeks. Five straight wins for Chicago, and they need

122
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,679
Speaker 1: it because the schedule, like we've mentioned before, really hard

123
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 1: after the All Star Game. But this is the perfect

124
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:40,479
Speaker 1: way to end the first part of the season. I

125
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 1: saw five winnable games on the schedule. I said, four

126
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:46,040
Speaker 1: and one, that's the goal, three and two acceptable. Somehow

127
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 1: they went five to zero. And it's all because Derozen

128
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 1: just on fire right now.

129
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 2: Oh, it's wild. You say it's a cherry picking stat

130
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 2: It sort of is. But when you break any record

131
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 2: that was held by Wilt Chamberlain or I would add

132
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 2: Michael Jordan to the list, like those two are fair

133
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 2: to celebrate, I think, and to make the thumbnail and

134
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:05,600
Speaker 2: put in the headline and leave the show. And I'm

135
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 2: dead serious because it does illustrate just how fire this

136
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 2: guy's on right now.

137
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:10,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, and when you consider the shots that Wilt would

138
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 5: have taken to get that record versus what DeMar's taken,

139
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:16,919
Speaker 5: I mean, it definitely stands out. But Demarta Rosen is

140
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 5: having his career best year. I mean that's not a surprise.

141
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 5: He's had some really good, consistent scoring years, you know,

142
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,320
Speaker 5: from the Raptors and even in San Antonio he was

143
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,599
Speaker 5: a good scorer. But there's no way it sort of

144
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:28,520
Speaker 5: stood out like it is right now, where it's like

145
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 5: it's him and Chris Paul. The tire the time said

146
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,640
Speaker 5: he's the best finisher in the game. I would probably

147
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:34,919
Speaker 5: argue and say it's Chris Paul who cares. They're both awesome.

148
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:36,720
Speaker 5: And they're both on Team Lebron too, by the way,

149
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 5: for the All Star Game, So if that gets tight,

150
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 5: that's going to be interesting to see who gets the ball.

151
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 5: But seeing a guy just perfect his craft like this

152
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 5: is really good. Because DeRozan in those early Raptor days,

153
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 5: it was like, maybe he could get an All Star game.

154
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:51,279
Speaker 5: You didn't quite know what the ceiling is with him

155
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 5: right now, It's like, when the game's on the line,

156
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 5: I will take my team to the end and I

157
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:57,359
Speaker 5: will win the game for them, and I'll get to

158
00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 5: my spot. Doesn't matter who's defending me. I will make

159
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,040
Speaker 5: the right shot and all make the right play. Yeah,

160
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 5: that's the thing. I mean. For the season, he's at

161
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:08,279
Speaker 5: fifty two percent field goal percentage on twenty field goal

162
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 5: attempts at a game. So you know he's shooting the three. Okay,

163
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 5: I mean that's not part of his game. But when

164
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 5: DeRozan feels like I need to go and get a bucket,

165
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 5: he's got multiple spots within that three point line. He

166
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 5: can go down to the baseline. He's got the little

167
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:23,680
Speaker 5: mid ranger at the free throw line. He's got the

168
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 5: other side. He can do the little side step mid

169
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 5: ranger there as well. So he's got everything. His bag

170
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 5: is deep.

171
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 3: Seven straight thirty five point games on fifty percent or better.

172
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 3: It's not a record, it's not in any book. It's

173
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 3: not in a record book, but it's a noteworthy stat.

174
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 3: So it's noteworthy and it should be noted for sure

175
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 3: because the defense knows.

176
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 4: Exactly what's coming.

177
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 3: It's come a pump, and another pump, and a third

178
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 3: pup may come. That's the stat. I want to know

179
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 3: how many pumps does he pop?

180
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 2: Is the league in all time pump hicks?

181
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 4: Yeah?

182
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 3: And then you got to break it down by pumps

183
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 3: that lead to made or pump fakes that lead to

184
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 3: miss baskets. I think tomorrow would be this would be

185
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:11,080
Speaker 3: their career for pump fakes made. I was a career

186
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:11,560
Speaker 3: here for that.

187
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 5: Uh.

188
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 3: And it is going to be Zach Lavine and DeMar

189
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:20,280
Speaker 3: Derozen together this weekend because apparently Zach interrupted DeMar DeRozan's

190
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 3: postgame press conference to say, see in Cleveland, MVP.

191
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:25,120
Speaker 4: It's colinim MVP.

192
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 3: They're on the same flight to All Star weekend according

193
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 3: to Casey Johnson, so they'll be there. Yeah, Zach's got

194
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 3: a three point contest to win. He wants to be

195
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 3: the guy, the only guy in NBA history. That'll be

196
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 3: a record book. That'll be the record book if he

197
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 3: wins a three point contest because he's won the dunk contest,

198
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:42,440
Speaker 3: the only guy to do both to win both of

199
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 3: those if that happens, and then a weird thing after

200
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 3: the game. This is this is a different game here.

201
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,760
Speaker 3: But Rick Carlisle, head coach of the Indiana Pacers, had

202
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,480
Speaker 3: his postgame press conference and said Tristan Thompson, who joined

203
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,680
Speaker 3: our team at the trade deadline, is going to be

204
00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:58,559
Speaker 3: bought out and is joining the Chicago Bulls.

205
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 2: He had a good game last night too for the Pacers.

206
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,040
Speaker 3: Yes, so Tristan Thompson is going to be a bull

207
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 3: kind of cool that the Bulls are going for it.

208
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 3: I know Tristan Thompson is not a game changer by

209
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 3: any means, but to be your backup center, to be

210
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 3: a veteran guy, to be in his early thirties a champ,

211
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 3: and to be a guy who can just fill in

212
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 3: the gaps there, it's a decent pickup over Tody Bradley,

213
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 3: I suppose for the Bulls to have as a backup.

214
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 2: What do you think of the Tristan Thompson move here?

215
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 1: They've needed a backup big for quite some time, so

216
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 1: bringing in Tristan Thompson for as a buyout guy sure

217
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:32,240
Speaker 1: seems to be one of the better get able guys

218
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 1: out there. I kind of thought it would be Robin Lopez.

219
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,760
Speaker 1: I don't know who you're taking between Tristan Thompson and

220
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,199
Speaker 1: Robin Lopez at this point, so sure, that's fine. The

221
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:42,440
Speaker 1: question now will be if they're going to release McKinney

222
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,920
Speaker 1: or Matt Thomas. Everybody wants them to release Matt Thomas,

223
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: but there's like nobody on the Bulls that can shoot. Yeah,

224
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 1: so I would kind of keep him around even though

225
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,400
Speaker 1: he doesn't want to shoot threes, like he's out there

226
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 1: to shoot threes. He just passes them up and takes

227
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 1: a twenty footer.

228
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 2: Well, I don't have the stat unfortunately for you, task

229
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:01,199
Speaker 2: of pump fakes scored per possession, but I do have

230
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,040
Speaker 2: points scored per procession. This is from Synergy, So I

231
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 2: quick trivia question for you guys. Who leads the league

232
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,320
Speaker 2: this year? Basically? In scoring efficiency is what we're getting

233
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 2: down to it. There are six guys that have one

234
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:17,040
Speaker 2: point one to zero point scored per possession, which is

235
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 2: really really good. Can you name them?

236
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 5: Well?

237
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:24,080
Speaker 2: Dem Rosen is currently fourth right now, he's tied off well,

238
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,760
Speaker 2: he's actually he's really third, tied with two other guys,

239
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:28,360
Speaker 2: but he's on the top six yep.

240
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:30,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, honess correct.

241
00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:34,960
Speaker 2: He's on the list, tied with the rosen Joel embiid No, yok,

242
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,600
Speaker 2: he leads one point one two. Here we go. There's

243
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:40,720
Speaker 2: another big guy you haven't named. But it's not embiad

244
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:47,200
Speaker 2: scoring his forte Lebron, no, Noron's out there too many

245
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 2: scoring is he's an All Star. He's a you know,

246
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:52,599
Speaker 2: he's a near seven footer.

247
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 4: Rudy No, no, no, although I guess yeah.

248
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,319
Speaker 2: True, no, you got to. This guy's a big guy

249
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 2: that can shoot something. He's the greatest seven footer. Carl

250
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 2: Anthony Towns. And then two more. I'll give you one

251
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,559
Speaker 2: because he's injured. Durant is on the list. This is

252
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:15,079
Speaker 2: the interesting one though, just got traded. Uh No haliber guard,

253
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 2: shooting guard body no no, never been an All star

254
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:25,440
Speaker 2: white no borderline all star player playing really well for

255
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 2: his new So Yo gets Durant, c J DeRozan Giannis

256
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,760
Speaker 2: and Karl Anthony Towns, and then it goes Lebron and

257
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,199
Speaker 2: bid Zach Lavigne and Anthony Davis. You guys mentioned a

258
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 2: couple other ones. Right there you go, but hopefully we'll

259
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 2: get you the pump.

260
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 4: Fake Yeah hope. So her possession.

261
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,840
Speaker 2: I'll get you that. Any other thoughts on the Demato

262
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:45,679
Speaker 2: Rosen run here and the Bulls and just a Kobe

263
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 2: White is playing exceptionally well. I know we've talked about

264
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:49,760
Speaker 2: him over the last couple of weeks. He has slotted

265
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 2: in there perfectly, getting more opportunity, more minutes, more shots.

266
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 2: And what he had another what thirty one or something

267
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,480
Speaker 2: like that last night, So not bad for Kobe. Okay,

268
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 2: let's go to Cam Thomas leading the Nets back from

269
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 2: twenty eight down tasks to stun the Knicks one eleven,

270
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:07,200
Speaker 2: one oh six. I'm sure you saw the Steven A.

271
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 2: Smith clip going around this morning. The Knicks are trash

272
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 2: and he's done with them. He's over it. But a

273
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 2: wild game here with the comeback from Cam Thomas.

274
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:19,959
Speaker 4: I didn't see the Stephen A. Smith clip.

275
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:23,199
Speaker 2: That's pretty funny. I mean, it's exactly what you would imagine.

276
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:24,559
Speaker 1: It's going down in history.

277
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:25,600
Speaker 2: Is pretty good.

278
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:27,439
Speaker 1: People are going to come back to as like one

279
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:28,720
Speaker 1: of his all time great rants.

280
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, right after the game.

281
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a good audio bite. It's a good SoundBite. Yeah.

282
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:33,920
Speaker 4: The Knicks are trash, simple is that?

283
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, go back to the National disgrace Tracy Morgan, don't

284
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:40,320
Speaker 1: go to the games. We need to boycott. It's like

285
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 1: three minutes of straight fire.

286
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 2: Yeah.

287
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:44,080
Speaker 1: To be quite honest, it's so good.

288
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 4: So is it better than layoff the Wei?

289
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 2: No, that's still to me, favorite's good.

290
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,240
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be up there and the lamar

291
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 1: Odom line that he had that's very famous as well.

292
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:55,800
Speaker 1: I think it's going to be on the mount Rushmore

293
00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:57,360
Speaker 1: of stephen A. Smith rants.

294
00:12:57,679 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 3: Well, you know, we do the show at ten am Eastern.

295
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,080
Speaker 3: I'm not a stephen A Smith. Eight am, guy, I

296
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 3: need a nooner. So as soon as this show is over,

297
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:07,320
Speaker 3: I'm looking at some stephen A.

298
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:07,720
Speaker 4: Smith.

299
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:10,840
Speaker 3: But I understand. I thought this game was one you

300
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 3: could turn off. I suppose. I guess I'm dumb because

301
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 3: they gave up their third twenty point lead in eleven days.

302
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:18,839
Speaker 4: That's hard to do.

303
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:23,840
Speaker 3: Incredible, it is incredible against a yeah, durantless, Simmons less,

304
00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:24,800
Speaker 3: Irving less team.

305
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 4: The next were up twenty eight.

306
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 3: I thought it was done, and yes, here come the

307
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 3: Brooklyn Nets, led by Cam Thomas, who was there. Guy

308
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 3: KD tweeted after the game. Way to lead us out there.

309
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,839
Speaker 3: Number eight I think is what he said, let me

310
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,040
Speaker 3: double check that way to lead us out there.

311
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:42,200
Speaker 4: Whatever he said.

312
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:44,600
Speaker 3: Anyways, Cam Thomas hit the dagger there at the end

313
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 3: of the game. But when you were watching the end

314
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:48,440
Speaker 3: of the game, it was a bit of a two

315
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 3: man Cam Thomas and LaMarcus Aldridge game. Was Seth Curry

316
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:55,000
Speaker 3: playing off the ball, and that could happen mere weeks

317
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,320
Speaker 3: from now with Kevin Durant being in the place of

318
00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:00,840
Speaker 3: Cam Thomas and a big like LaMarcus Saldridge who replaced

319
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:02,960
Speaker 3: Andre Rummen who had a big nineteen point game, and

320
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 3: then Seth Curry again the fifth best three point shooter

321
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:07,559
Speaker 3: in terms of percentage in NBA history off the ball.

322
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 3: So Seth had a twenty point game along with Cam

323
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:13,599
Speaker 3: Thomas's twenty one off the bench and LaMarcus Aldridge the

324
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 3: guy's money in the bank from mid range. W you're

325
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 3: talking efficiency for the mid range, they've got two of them.

326
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 3: They've got They were the top two in the NBA

327
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 3: in terms of percentage from the mid range, Seth Curry

328
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,400
Speaker 3: and LaMarcus Aldridge. So this team has been built very

329
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 3: very well. Now onto that other side, this next team,

330
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 3: what happens with Tom Thibodeau teams is that they tend to.

331
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 4: Peak after a year two three max.

332
00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:39,480
Speaker 3: And then they tend to fall off because of the

333
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 3: lack of creativity offensively, and it just seems like this ceiling,

334
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 3: which usually last a couple of years with teams, was

335
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 3: just one. I don't know if it's returning here because

336
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 3: it's really just reliant upon Julius Randall making jump shots

337
00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,520
Speaker 3: and that ain't gonna happen. And it's a frustrating thing

338
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 3: to watch because it's old guys who we know what

339
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 3: their ceiling is. I mean, really, we're watching Kemba Walker,

340
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 3: we're watching Evan Fournier, and we're watching Taj Gibson play

341
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,640
Speaker 3: a ton of minutes here while the young guys are

342
00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 3: on the bench. Taj Gibson twenty five minutes, played more

343
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 3: minutes combined than Obi Top and Cam Reddish and Duce

344
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:24,880
Speaker 3: McBrien combined. So those three guys played twenty four minutes Obi,

345
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 3: Cam and Deuce while Taj is playing a ton that's

346
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 3: not gonna work. When they're not listening to the coach.

347
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 3: There's no real creativity offensively. We're just watching Kemba dribble,

348
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:40,400
Speaker 3: Taj dribble, and then Julius who I'm not sure exactly

349
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,520
Speaker 3: what happened. I did say in the offseason. Maybe New

350
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:48,280
Speaker 3: York had got to him after that playoff run. Maybe

351
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 3: that was just a one year peak of Julius Randall

352
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:52,520
Speaker 3: where he was an All NBA player and he's come

353
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 3: back to earth. But the only way this team could

354
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 3: find a lower rock bottom is if I guess if

355
00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:00,800
Speaker 3: the rock did intros. I mean talking about too, if

356
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 3: the Right did intros and gave somebody a rock bottom pregame.

357
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 3: I mean, that's the only way this could get worse.

358
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 3: Because their crunch hoome offenses, it.

359
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:10,200
Speaker 4: Is very bad.

360
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:12,560
Speaker 2: What do you think about your next.

361
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:14,880
Speaker 5: The same sort of thing we've seen over these last

362
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:16,760
Speaker 5: couple of weeks, where they're in a position where they

363
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:18,280
Speaker 5: can win if they can just get a couple of

364
00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:21,240
Speaker 5: decent looks on the offensive end, but they can't. It's

365
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 5: either rand or just like all right, dribble, dribble, I'm

366
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:26,280
Speaker 5: going for a deep fade away, or it's just like

367
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,560
Speaker 5: someone else is just going to They try to get

368
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:30,360
Speaker 5: forny ah shots because he is a good shooter of

369
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 5: the ball, but they can't really do it. And then

370
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,640
Speaker 5: on the other end, they just look so panicked defensively.

371
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:38,800
Speaker 5: Cam Tom's only hit one three last night, by the way,

372
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:41,200
Speaker 5: but it was that bomb before that, he hit two

373
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 5: of those sort of steep step back twos, and you

374
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 5: could just feel he was like, I'm feeling confident right now.

375
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:47,760
Speaker 5: Not much you can do about that when he just

376
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:49,720
Speaker 5: sort of stepped into the three there. But prior to that,

377
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 5: there was a hustle play the balls going out of

378
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:53,360
Speaker 5: bounds and then Nets saved it and get possession of

379
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:56,440
Speaker 5: the ball. Just that work rate right there, and then

380
00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 5: the Knicks on the other end, it just looks like

381
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,960
Speaker 5: they are so tense offensively and they are desperate for

382
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 5: a basket.

383
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,360
Speaker 2: They're missing their best player, yeah, which.

384
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,680
Speaker 5: Is yeah, okay, yeah, yeah, that's true. A good game,

385
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:10,159
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, the missing Rose, which is which again it

386
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,080
Speaker 5: Rose at thirty three. They shouldn't be missing him as

387
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:15,360
Speaker 5: much as they are, but they are. And tips, i mean,

388
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:17,720
Speaker 5: they're now nine games below five hundred. Will he even

389
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 5: survive into next season? I'm not sure. It's not a

390
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,479
Speaker 5: greatly constructed roster. That's we always have to look at

391
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:27,560
Speaker 5: that first. But also the Knicks just don't have anywhere

392
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 5: near the level of sort of intensity that they had

393
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:32,560
Speaker 5: last year. Maybe that's a reflection of TIBs. Certainly his

394
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 5: reputation carries that. And yeah, the season's almost done here

395
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:37,880
Speaker 5: for the Knicks.

396
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:41,000
Speaker 2: Anything to add to this battle here between the Nets

397
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,040
Speaker 2: and Knicks. I know Kevin Durant was loving it on

398
00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:45,159
Speaker 2: the sideline, especially Cam Tom is a guy he basically

399
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:49,040
Speaker 2: drafted for Brooklyn helping lead the comeback, and he had

400
00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:53,160
Speaker 2: some fire tweets saying, oh, it was, you know, pretty loud.

401
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:55,000
Speaker 2: The Nets fans were pretty loud in the Boro. Yeah,

402
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:56,840
Speaker 2: I mean in the Guardian, which it was a great

403
00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,120
Speaker 2: a great crowd atmosphere, sort of back and back. But yeah,

404
00:17:59,160 --> 00:17:59,600
Speaker 2: what do you think.

405
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think Kevin Durant should have went over and

406
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:05,719
Speaker 1: shook Tom Thibodeau's hand for that huge Cam Thomas performance.

407
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,399
Speaker 1: Honestly insane stuff to keep going with the same defense

408
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:10,520
Speaker 1: and just seeing him at pull up jumper after pull

409
00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:13,160
Speaker 1: up jumper after pull up jumper. I mean, shout out

410
00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:15,920
Speaker 1: to Quentin Grimes. He actually got some playing time last night.

411
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 1: He got his ass cooked by Cam Thomas the entirety

412
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 1: of the fourth quarter because they were playing drop coverage

413
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,719
Speaker 1: the whole time. It is just like lining it up

414
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:28,160
Speaker 1: for Cam Thomas. Hey Man, take the jumper you want

415
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:30,960
Speaker 1: to take every single time down the court. Deuce McBride,

416
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 1: he got sent to the G League. He's probably their

417
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 1: best bald distributing point guard. So it all comes down

418
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:37,840
Speaker 1: to is Julius Randall gonna be able to make shots?

419
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,240
Speaker 1: He made shots for all of the regular season last year,

420
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:42,439
Speaker 1: and we all said, what happens if this guy stops

421
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 1: making shots. He stopped making shots in the playoffs and

422
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:47,199
Speaker 1: hasn't gotten it back this season, so the team is

423
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:50,200
Speaker 1: bad and Thibbs maybe he sticks around for the rest

424
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,760
Speaker 1: of the season because, like Stephen A. Smith said, we

425
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 1: haven't seen Leon Rose. We see inmates more than we

426
00:18:55,800 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 1: see Leon Rose. So maybe Bibbs get to stick around.

427
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:02,680
Speaker 1: But he is not going to last in New York

428
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,920
Speaker 1: past to this season, I would imagine, because I don't

429
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 1: know if you guys watched Worldwide Bob, he did his

430
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 1: Knicks reaction shirtless oh wow, and like you mentioned, the

431
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:16,119
Speaker 1: Knicks have blown three twenty point leads in their past

432
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:20,919
Speaker 1: seven games. He said, not only did the Knicks find

433
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 1: new ways to lose, they invent new ways to lose,

434
00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 1: and that every loss is somehow the worst loss of

435
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:30,280
Speaker 1: the season. They get worse and worse every single time.

436
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:31,960
Speaker 1: Like I mean, I don't mind blowing a twenty eight

437
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,240
Speaker 1: point lead in the first half, it honestly happens more

438
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 1: than you would think. An eighteen point lead in the

439
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 1: fourth quarter that's even worse.

440
00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 4: That's tough.

441
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:43,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, So honestly, just go watch the Stephen. It was

442
00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:46,280
Speaker 1: worth it seeing the Knicks get destroyed like this was

443
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:49,440
Speaker 1: worth it to see a Stephen a Smith ram like that.

444
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 2: I agree with that. And the only thing I also

445
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:54,280
Speaker 2: I'll add to this from the net side of things is,

446
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:56,320
Speaker 2: and I think I said it the other day, one

447
00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:58,399
Speaker 2: thing I hope Steve Nash has figured out is that

448
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,840
Speaker 2: Bruce Brown needs to play. He just has to. He's

449
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,320
Speaker 2: an energy guy. You talk about that offensive rebound late,

450
00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:06,080
Speaker 2: it was all because of him just out hustling, you know,

451
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:08,439
Speaker 2: Randalls and the Mitchell Robinson's the world, just having a

452
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,560
Speaker 2: nose for the ball. And he's not going to fill

453
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:12,920
Speaker 2: up the box score and it doesn't matter because he's

454
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:16,879
Speaker 2: a great, perfect, complimentary player around star players and they

455
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:18,399
Speaker 2: didn't have a lot of those last night. He just

456
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 2: has to play. He's got to get twenty minutes a game.

457
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,119
Speaker 2: And I think Nash is smart enough to see that

458
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:25,919
Speaker 2: as well. And you know, he was really solid and

459
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 2: he just knows his role. And just again, that energy

460
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:32,000
Speaker 2: is contagious. I think it spreads to some of your

461
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:33,160
Speaker 2: superstars a little bit more.

462
00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, and maybe he wasn't his energetic self this season

463
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:40,200
Speaker 3: because the Nets locker room wasn't all that great because

464
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:42,520
Speaker 3: he said, as soon as the trade happened, we like

465
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:45,679
Speaker 3: each other. Now that's a quote from a basketball player

466
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,800
Speaker 3: after a trade, and it's not just Bruce Brown, it's

467
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,320
Speaker 3: this entire team. Maybe they have found a supporting cast

468
00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:54,320
Speaker 3: here Drummond nineteen boards as the starter coming over in

469
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 3: that trade, Seth Curry taking the place of Joe Harris

470
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:01,680
Speaker 3: because Joe Harris has been injured all season. Money from

471
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:05,000
Speaker 3: the outside as an off ball contributor. He was a

472
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:06,720
Speaker 3: little bit more on the ball with the Sixers, and

473
00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 3: he got better at that, that's for sure. But now

474
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:13,639
Speaker 3: everybody else is going to take the limelight, even Cam Thomas,

475
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:17,880
Speaker 3: who is number twenty four. I figured this out. Kevin

476
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,359
Speaker 3: Durant said, wait to lead us, number twenty four, or

477
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:21,400
Speaker 3: he just called him twenty four.

478
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:23,280
Speaker 2: I wish I think it was any out of curiosity.

479
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:24,080
Speaker 5: I'm not sure.

480
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,360
Speaker 4: Thomas feels like an eight. I don't know. Camp.

481
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 3: Thomas feels like I wish guys wore the number that

482
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 3: they were drafted because I was pretty close to what

483
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:33,919
Speaker 3: he was drafted. He was drafted twenty seventh. He's a

484
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,600
Speaker 3: rook why not just wear twenty seven. I mean, you

485
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:38,080
Speaker 3: can choose what you want, but where you're.

486
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:39,880
Speaker 2: Drafting, well, let's keep going here.

487
00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:46,160
Speaker 6: I just want real, okay, yea, yeah, yeah, I tweeted

488
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 6: at the camp.

489
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:51,120
Speaker 5: Thomas dagabomb and Alex retweeted and said Mike Brain had

490
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,720
Speaker 5: to put it in instead of a bang injustice. I think

491
00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:55,440
Speaker 5: he's right too. That deserved a bang.

492
00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:58,560
Speaker 2: A tough spot though. He's like the Knicks play by

493
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 2: play guy, that's.

494
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 4: A game winning shot. They're up three and that put six.

495
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,359
Speaker 2: You wanted a bang? I mean in the I mean,

496
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:09,480
Speaker 2: come on, it puts it in.

497
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:10,200
Speaker 5: That's a bang.

498
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:14,840
Speaker 4: If he just bangs everything, then it becomes it.

499
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:15,919
Speaker 2: Was worthy of a bang.

500
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:21,399
Speaker 5: I think that's a banger. That's a a bang bang.

501
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:23,800
Speaker 5: I'm not saying bang bang, I'm just saying bang could

502
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:24,320
Speaker 5: be a bang.

503
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 2: The Pistons reject the Celtics nine game winning Street Detroit

504
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:31,560
Speaker 2: with the win, Lee, what are you not?

505
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,480
Speaker 5: The double rejection at the end, that was awesome. Who

506
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:35,760
Speaker 5: do you think got credited with it?

507
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:37,480
Speaker 2: I think Caid.

508
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:38,800
Speaker 5: Who do you think you're right?

509
00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:41,359
Speaker 4: I think Cad Isaiah Stewart.

510
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 5: Isaiah Stewart in the box score gets because it first

511
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:48,040
Speaker 5: his hands are fraid, definitely gets in and then Stewart.

512
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 4: Like what like that could have been a bang bang.

513
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 5: But this is a funny game because that basically saved

514
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:57,679
Speaker 5: preserved the victory the Pistons in Boston. When I was

515
00:22:57,680 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 5: watching this game, we came home from basketball last night

516
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:01,320
Speaker 5: and you sort of looking around at the scores and

517
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:02,920
Speaker 5: I saw, Wow, the Pistons have been in the cell.

518
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:06,040
Speaker 5: Maybe Joan Brown isn't playing, maybe Tatum's not playing, Marcus

519
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:08,160
Speaker 5: Smart wasn't playing because he was in, but everyone else

520
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,159
Speaker 5: was playing. But I think the Celtics, who had won

521
00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:11,719
Speaker 5: nine in a row, just came off a massive win

522
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,679
Speaker 5: against Philadelphia, saw the Pistons coming to town and was

523
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:17,120
Speaker 5: the All Star weekends on the horizon. They're like, yeah,

524
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 5: we'll be good.

525
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:19,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll have to play six good minutes.

526
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:23,440
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, but not the case, the Pistons actually went

527
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 5: out and played really really well and got a huge

528
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 5: road victory here in Boston. And Kate Cunningham didn't shoot

529
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:31,240
Speaker 5: the ball all that well in terms of his percentages,

530
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 5: but he is really something. He is love them. Yeah,

531
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:37,760
Speaker 5: he is special. I've made the Lillard comparison before because

532
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:39,919
Speaker 5: of that sort of that stoicness in the way that

533
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:41,359
Speaker 5: he plays and the way that he can sort of

534
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:43,400
Speaker 5: get to his spot and shoot, and I really love

535
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:46,200
Speaker 5: that about him. But the Piston's not bad City Bay.

536
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:49,359
Speaker 5: Last night, twenty points, hit five threes. They played a

537
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,680
Speaker 5: good game for a team that's got really nothing to

538
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 5: play for. They're trying to get to the bottom to

539
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:55,439
Speaker 5: get a high draft pick. They go in there and

540
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 5: accidentally get a win over the maybe well not the

541
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:00,760
Speaker 5: hottest team, but one of the hot of teams in

542
00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,399
Speaker 5: the league right now. So good job Pistons. Isn't it

543
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 5: funny Jeremy Grant? He was so likely to be traded

544
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,760
Speaker 5: and there wasn't even really a close deal out there,

545
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:10,200
Speaker 5: was it.

546
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:10,800
Speaker 2: Yeah?

547
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:13,080
Speaker 5: I mean he was like the hot name going around

548
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:14,800
Speaker 5: the market a couple of weeks ago, and I was like,

549
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:17,960
Speaker 5: he's maybe not that good. I mean, he's fine, but

550
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 5: he's not like hit the game.

551
00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:21,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, bang yesterday?

552
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 1: Was it my brain?

553
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:25,880
Speaker 5: Brady bang.

554
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 2: Tatum how to look at this too?

555
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:30,480
Speaker 5: Oh yeah he did. Yeah, I mean a lot of.

556
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:33,639
Speaker 2: Fine, a lot of separation. That was after correct what

557
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 2: I'm wrong. Derek White with a beautiful steal on the

558
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:39,320
Speaker 2: inbound bad pass from Corey. I'll even say it's bad.

559
00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:41,720
Speaker 2: I was going to say it Ka sort of stopped.

560
00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:43,720
Speaker 2: That's the last thing you want to do in a

561
00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,640
Speaker 2: tight end bounds, Like you make your cut and then

562
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:49,160
Speaker 2: you give up halfway through and it's like Corey's already

563
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:50,919
Speaker 2: passing the ball. But it was a nice steal from

564
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 2: Derek Waite because yeah, he left his guy in the

565
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:55,399
Speaker 2: back court and uh, I guess it was sort of

566
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 2: Kate had no idea that he was there. That was

567
00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:58,800
Speaker 2: a great play, a very Marcus smart leg play.

568
00:24:58,880 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 5: Yeah.

569
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 2: But yeah, there's a nice, nice quality win here from Detroit,

570
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:04,520
Speaker 2: surprising the Bean Talboys.

571
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:06,800
Speaker 3: It's nice to see Corey Joseph really pissed when that

572
00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:08,720
Speaker 3: ball was stolen, Like they really cared down to the

573
00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 3: end here.

574
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:11,920
Speaker 4: But yeah, the Pistons held.

575
00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:15,760
Speaker 3: Onto every one of their vets, including Cory Joseph, Kelly

576
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:17,879
Speaker 3: Olinik and obviously Jeremy Grant, those guys.

577
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:20,240
Speaker 4: Could there be a byout coming up.

578
00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:23,199
Speaker 3: You know, somebody could pick up a Corey Joseph that

579
00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:26,080
Speaker 3: would but maybe they just want these vets around these

580
00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:27,399
Speaker 3: young ands going into next season.

581
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:31,200
Speaker 2: Gary Trent Junior drops thirty as the Raptors defeat the

582
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,160
Speaker 2: Wolves ahead of the All Star.

583
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:38,639
Speaker 3: Break tests well before the game, very very funny. Patrick Beverly,

584
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:42,520
Speaker 3: I got a technical foul pre game, pre game as

585
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:47,320
Speaker 3: they line up, He's foot battling with Gary Trent Junior

586
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 3: was amazing. You gotta have your foot on your side

587
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 3: of the mid court line, Gary, So Patrick, Gary, They're

588
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 3: just kicking each other. And Patrick Beverley gets a pregame

589
00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:02,639
Speaker 3: tech And our friend Lopez said, is that a record, Like,

590
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:05,879
Speaker 3: does somebody else have a pregame tech in the history

591
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,320
Speaker 3: of the NBA? Because if that is a mark for

592
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 3: Patrick Beverly to hold for the rest of NBA eternity,

593
00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 3: that is that is a very good one. So the

594
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,159
Speaker 3: Wolves couldn't hit shots in this game, two games in

595
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,480
Speaker 3: a row, twenty four from three. My man Anthony Edwards

596
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:23,320
Speaker 3: for on this night, yeah, oh for eight night before

597
00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:26,000
Speaker 3: he left the game with an injury. He needs the

598
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,879
Speaker 3: break here s Yeah, I am a little surprised he

599
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:32,840
Speaker 3: played as well. Is he at the Rising Stars child?

600
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:35,920
Speaker 3: I assume he yes. I wonder if he does go Anyways,

601
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:39,359
Speaker 3: this was a very tough minded victory for the Raptors

602
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:42,480
Speaker 3: without Fred Van Vliet didn't need him because of Pascal

603
00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:44,840
Speaker 3: Siakam he was creating. I think we overlook a lot

604
00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:47,399
Speaker 3: of the times just how much of a fulcrum he

605
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:49,680
Speaker 3: is from the elbow. Nine assists in this game to

606
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,960
Speaker 3: go along with seventeen points and nine rebounds, six turnovers.

607
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:56,000
Speaker 3: Who cares? But he just needed one guy to be

608
00:26:56,080 --> 00:27:00,720
Speaker 3: banging home shots. And the aforementioned banger was Gary Trent

609
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:05,320
Speaker 3: Junior dropping thirty and Gary Trent's dad, Gary Trent Senior

610
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:08,720
Speaker 3: looking for oh my god, sideline, we've got it here

611
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 3: if you're on YouTube, the mink. I suppose he lives

612
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:16,159
Speaker 3: in Minnesota. This was his last NBA team. He was

613
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:21,720
Speaker 3: a Blazer Raptor. But he's wearing the mink. Keep him

614
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:26,679
Speaker 3: warm there obviously, Yeah, looking great and uh. Gary Trent

615
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,000
Speaker 3: Junior was asked about his dad's look on the TSN

616
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:31,879
Speaker 3: broadcast after the game, and he explained it to a

617
00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:32,879
Speaker 3: T listen.

618
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:35,119
Speaker 1: He was definitely got a plus. You know, he got

619
00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:37,800
Speaker 1: the make overs, he had the wildline with the gators

620
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:39,119
Speaker 1: on his feet. Now zoom in on him.

621
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 2: You have to see him, got the GT brace.

622
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:42,359
Speaker 1: Looking, a little ice on him, a little brothers and

623
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:42,640
Speaker 1: the meat.

624
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:43,959
Speaker 2: So everybody kind of doing any thing.

625
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:46,320
Speaker 4: There was a lot there.

626
00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:49,119
Speaker 2: I know what you're thinking, did I accidentally when listening

627
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 2: to the podcast two times speed on that?

628
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:52,359
Speaker 1: No you didn't.

629
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:54,800
Speaker 2: That's how fast he was talking about his flying.

630
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,440
Speaker 3: I think he's just a fast talker. Wow, he mus Yeah,

631
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,560
Speaker 3: he must speed up podcast when he listened to the podcast.

632
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:05,520
Speaker 3: But yeah, the VERSACEI belt, the gators us.

633
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 1: I guess a wildlife on his feet.

634
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:12,400
Speaker 3: Okay, because I thought that was a brand. But all right,

635
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:14,720
Speaker 3: all right, that makes sense. Something about a bracelet, and

636
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,400
Speaker 3: it's something about another I think I'm not sure which

637
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:21,320
Speaker 3: relative it is, but another kids, another kid wearing a

638
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:24,000
Speaker 3: make there as well, I guess, I don't.

639
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:26,399
Speaker 1: Know, but timber wolves mask though.

640
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, he definitely obviously lives in the Twin Cities

641
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:32,520
Speaker 2: and he's sitting right.

642
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:37,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, but yeah, he's he's been at Raptor games as well.

643
00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:41,560
Speaker 3: Supporting his son who's balling this season. So yeah, this

644
00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:43,760
Speaker 3: was a This was a gutty wit and not a

645
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:46,040
Speaker 3: beautiful win for the Wolves. You just couldn't hit shots.

646
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:49,360
Speaker 3: But yeah, yeah, the Wolves just needed to need to

647
00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:52,280
Speaker 3: go home. Just take the take the break here and

648
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:53,080
Speaker 3: get their shots back.

649
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:53,280
Speaker 5: You.

650
00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:55,240
Speaker 2: I think he sort of glossed over one of my

651
00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:58,360
Speaker 2: favorite parts of the Beverly Gary Trent jostling there, which

652
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:00,680
Speaker 2: went for like a minute before they would jumped the ball.

653
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:03,600
Speaker 2: Beverly pissed off Gary Trn junior. You scored thirteen points

654
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:06,880
Speaker 2: in the first five minutes of the game, so a

655
00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:09,760
Speaker 2: classic Beverly like trying to get under somebody's skin in

656
00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:11,920
Speaker 2: it backfiring and blowing up in his face.

657
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 1: Come on, he did have ten points and more turnovers

658
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:17,640
Speaker 1: than assess. Really showed up, so really showed up.

659
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 2: Got the tech though, Yeah he got the tech and

660
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 2: oh my god, hilarious moment if you haven't seen it again. Yeah,

661
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 2: anything to add to uh to the game.

662
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:27,760
Speaker 5: I thought that heus young was pretty decent for the

663
00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:30,840
Speaker 5: very good I mean for a pickup for nothing really

664
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:33,120
Speaker 5: because drags wasn't there. They got the veteran. They just

665
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:36,280
Speaker 5: need that presence that depth, and he showed he's ready

666
00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:37,480
Speaker 5: to play and slot in pretty easily.

667
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:40,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, slot in, he find space, he makes reads. He

668
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:42,520
Speaker 2: had ten points five boards of steal in the block

669
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,360
Speaker 2: in you know, twenty minutes off the bench. There he

670
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:45,160
Speaker 2: was for.

671
00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:47,920
Speaker 5: A team that hasn't really utilized its bench bench all

672
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 5: that much. If you can get that sort of production

673
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 5: add of him in twenty plus minutes, that's huge for

674
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:52,600
Speaker 5: the Raptors.

675
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,440
Speaker 2: Yeah. Also, just a weird sat with the Wolves. Despite

676
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,920
Speaker 2: the loss, their second best record at the fifty nine

677
00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:00,640
Speaker 2: game mark. As we hit the also break here, they're

678
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:03,040
Speaker 2: thirty one and twenty eight, their second best record in

679
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:06,360
Speaker 2: the last eighteen years. A couple games over five hundred.

680
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:07,680
Speaker 4: That's a record. That's a record.

681
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:09,840
Speaker 1: I think that's been that first TIBs year.

682
00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:12,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it probably was.

683
00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:13,840
Speaker 4: That's always the best TIBs year.

684
00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:17,120
Speaker 2: Okay. A couple more Eastern Conference wins just quickly here

685
00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:20,920
Speaker 2: Trey Trey Young score twenty two. Hawks destroyed the Magic

686
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:21,960
Speaker 2: won thirty one or nine.

687
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:24,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, blowout city and this one the Hawks led by

688
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 1: twenty at half. They hit thirteen of nineteen threes in

689
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:30,200
Speaker 1: the first half and then hit another five in the

690
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:32,520
Speaker 1: second half and really that's the game. So the Hawks

691
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:35,400
Speaker 1: head into the break in tenth place in the Eastern

692
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 1: Conference on a two game win patch, which comes after

693
00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:41,760
Speaker 1: losing five of seven, which comes after a seven game

694
00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:43,480
Speaker 1: win streak, which comes after a.

695
00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 4: Five game losing streak.

696
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:47,840
Speaker 1: It's a roller coaster season. Their second half goal is

697
00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:49,800
Speaker 1: to treat the second half of the season like they

698
00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:53,920
Speaker 1: did last year and literally find some consistency, play some defense.

699
00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:55,520
Speaker 1: They didn't really need it last night. They just hit

700
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:57,360
Speaker 1: a bunch of threes in the magic couldn't keep up.

701
00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:01,040
Speaker 1: The other interesting thing here, Lou Williams set an NBA

702
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:05,280
Speaker 1: record for most games off the bench his nine eighty

703
00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:07,720
Speaker 1: fifth game, in which he came off the bench, breaking

704
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:12,840
Speaker 1: a tie with no You would think, you would think,

705
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 1: but this man makes a bunch of three pointers. But

706
00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:18,280
Speaker 1: he's not even the second best three point shooter in.

707
00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:21,720
Speaker 5: His family, Seth Curry.

708
00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:25,960
Speaker 1: Del Curry del Curry. So Nate McMillan said, Lou's been

709
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:27,720
Speaker 1: the best sixth man of the or He's been the

710
00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:29,800
Speaker 1: sixth man of the year a few times. They need

711
00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:33,200
Speaker 1: to probably name that award after Lou Williams. You think

712
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,360
Speaker 1: they needed to name that award after Lou Williams, No,

713
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:38,040
Speaker 1: the Lou Williams sixth Man of the Year award.

714
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:45,000
Speaker 5: When he's tied with Jamal as well with three.

715
00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:46,440
Speaker 2: He is saying he is the all time guy, the

716
00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:47,000
Speaker 2: all time.

717
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:49,600
Speaker 1: He's come off the bench more than anybody else. He's

718
00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:52,240
Speaker 1: one sixth Man of the Year more than anybody else except.

719
00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:53,000
Speaker 2: For Jamal Crawford.

720
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:57,239
Speaker 1: So let's name the award. Feels like we're gonna name

721
00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:58,280
Speaker 1: awards after people.

722
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:01,440
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, we got on the podcast where we come

723
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 2: up with the name of the player that we would

724
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:05,080
Speaker 2: name each award after.

725
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:08,480
Speaker 1: That's not bad. So we've got Bill Russell Finals MVP. Yeah, yeah,

726
00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:12,720
Speaker 1: We've got Kobe Bryant All Star Game MVP's that right now,

727
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 1: Twyman Stokes teammates true true, good time. So we need

728
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:20,840
Speaker 1: what we an m v P Most Improved would be weird.

729
00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 2: We need something to win it twice that year.

730
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:31,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, go from most Improved to m VP. So he

731
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:32,600
Speaker 5: sort of improved on.

732
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:34,480
Speaker 4: Like that.

733
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,960
Speaker 2: I don't know, okay, okay, so we'll uh somebody write

734
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,120
Speaker 2: that in our slack channel so we get a brainstorm.

735
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:42,440
Speaker 2: Anything else from that from the Hawk's victory there over

736
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:46,360
Speaker 2: the magic, no, sir, no, Okay. Finally, then for Eastern

737
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:48,680
Speaker 2: Conference wins, we will get to the Western Conference games,

738
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:51,080
Speaker 2: you know, Lebron and the Blazers continuing to win. We'll

739
00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:52,960
Speaker 2: do that after the break. But the Pacers snapped a

740
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,280
Speaker 2: seven game losing streak by beating the Wizards, who are

741
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:57,960
Speaker 2: a garbage basketball team. One's thirteen to one, O eight

742
00:32:58,080 --> 00:32:59,920
Speaker 2: and you already slipped it in their task when we

743
00:32:59,920 --> 00:33:02,520
Speaker 2: were talking about the Bulls. Two former Kings balled out

744
00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:04,800
Speaker 2: in this one. Tyre's Halliburton, who's putting up some monster

745
00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 2: numbers here for Indiana. He had twenty one and fourteen,

746
00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:11,040
Speaker 2: and then Tristan Thompson season high seventeen points in his

747
00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 2: final game with Indiana, and Rick Carlisle after the game,

748
00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:17,480
Speaker 2: it was fun while it lasted, he said, I don't

749
00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:19,720
Speaker 2: mind announcing that because it's a rare chance when you

750
00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:21,280
Speaker 2: get to think a guy in front of his teammates.

751
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:23,600
Speaker 2: And he played very, very big tonight. And as we said,

752
00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:26,080
Speaker 2: he is now expected to join the Chicago Bulls after

753
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 2: they waved somebody, so there you go.

754
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:30,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, and Tristan Thompson had a social media post thanking

755
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:33,080
Speaker 5: Indiana for his time gives any play three.

756
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:34,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's weird.

757
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,280
Speaker 5: I've never really heard a coach say he's going to

758
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:39,960
Speaker 5: the next team though. That doesn't you, Yeah, happen like that.

759
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:42,640
Speaker 5: It's like we you know, if they wave him, then

760
00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:44,920
Speaker 5: it's like good luck on your next endeavor or whatever.

761
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:48,120
Speaker 2: And Billy Donovan couldn't even comment Tom Tristan Thompson coming like,

762
00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:50,160
Speaker 2: I don't know if that legally he couldn't because it's

763
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 2: not officially. Yeah, it's weird.

764
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:53,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. Even Rick Carlisle was like trying

765
00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:55,480
Speaker 1: to be cagey about it. He's like, they're going He's

766
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:58,120
Speaker 1: going to a team a little farther up North starts

767
00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:01,720
Speaker 1: with the Sea and talked for like another thirty seconds

768
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 1: and then he's like, it's Chicago.

769
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:07,520
Speaker 2: They didn't get it, Ricky.

770
00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:11,480
Speaker 3: Everybody wants to be a news breaker, everybody, right, You know,

771
00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 3: Lee broke the josh getting news at the draft. You

772
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:17,959
Speaker 3: love breaking slam dunk contest it once in a while.

773
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:19,200
Speaker 3: I can't wait for this weekend.

774
00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:20,440
Speaker 4: What are you? What are you hearing?

775
00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:24,200
Speaker 2: I'll get back to let me let me do some

776
00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:28,160
Speaker 2: searching it And just Indiana destroyed the Wizards in the

777
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:29,960
Speaker 2: paint it's seventy four points in the paint. You are

778
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:31,520
Speaker 2: not going to win many basketball games. And they were

779
00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:33,000
Speaker 2: in it. I mean they had a chance. But uh,

780
00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:36,040
Speaker 2: it's a bad loss for Washington. But there's seasons, yeah,

781
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:36,920
Speaker 2: spiraling it.

782
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:39,080
Speaker 5: You know that meme of someone drawing a horse where

783
00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:41,759
Speaker 5: it's really really beautiful and then it's just like I

784
00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 5: love that. That's the Wizard season. Yea beautiful And now

785
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:48,120
Speaker 5: it's just let's just get dunk garbage.

786
00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:50,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, we're gonna take a break. When we

787
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:52,399
Speaker 2: come back, we'll get to the Western Conference. Big games

788
00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:56,239
Speaker 2: from last night. Some beauties don't go anywhere, all right,

789
00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:58,360
Speaker 2: Still here in the Classic Factory, we've talked about the

790
00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:00,759
Speaker 2: big Eastern Conference wins. Let's get to the West. But

791
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:03,320
Speaker 2: before we do, Lee, I'm going to need an update

792
00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:05,240
Speaker 2: when it comes to trying to hit fifty thousand.

793
00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:11,319
Speaker 5: According to my sources, YouTube's channel channel thirty nine subscribers

794
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:12,920
Speaker 5: away from the Big five zero.

795
00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:14,920
Speaker 2: Look at for thirty nine heroes out there and the right.

796
00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:17,879
Speaker 2: Are we going to do it during this show? Yes,

797
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:20,759
Speaker 2: lock it in, lock it in, all right, all right,

798
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:22,279
Speaker 2: hopefully we'll get there by the end.

799
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:25,480
Speaker 4: Of the show. Gend we might have to be here

800
00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:26,200
Speaker 4: for a while.

801
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:28,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's right. We keep going.

802
00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:31,719
Speaker 2: Stretch it out, stretch it out. Okay, let's get to

803
00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:34,279
Speaker 2: those Western Conference games. Some good ones, lash thanks, some

804
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:38,080
Speaker 2: great endings. We'll start with Lebron fueling the Lakers little

805
00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:40,120
Speaker 2: fourth quarter rally there over the Jazz one or six.

806
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 5: On one throwback sort of performance there from Lebron where

807
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:44,520
Speaker 5: it's just like Anthony Davis was down, It's like I

808
00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 5: need desperately to get a win against the good team.

809
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:48,719
Speaker 5: And he went out scored fifteen of his thirty three

810
00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:52,359
Speaker 5: and hit some deep Lebron daggers over the defense there.

811
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:54,520
Speaker 5: Rudy was out on him. Rudy was playing decent defense

812
00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:57,040
Speaker 5: at double came. Lebron just bang knocks in a three.

813
00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,319
Speaker 5: He had a thunderous dunk down the lane as well,

814
00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:02,520
Speaker 5: pass from very nice part from it. Westbrook can make

815
00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:05,839
Speaker 5: these high percentage plays at times, and there was times

816
00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:09,040
Speaker 5: as well. Westbrook had that little opportunity to shoot that

817
00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:12,200
Speaker 5: banker that's been an absolute disaster for him this season,

818
00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:14,560
Speaker 5: and he didn't. So he's maybe showing some growth here.

819
00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:16,799
Speaker 5: But ultimately this comes down to the fact Lakers were

820
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:19,479
Speaker 5: down twelve in the fourth and look like the Jazz,

821
00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:21,359
Speaker 5: who have been playing much better at full strength, We're

822
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:23,480
Speaker 5: going to get this win. And it was just a

823
00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:24,680
Speaker 5: Lebron takeout of a game.

824
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:26,000
Speaker 2: And he was jacked.

825
00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:29,160
Speaker 5: Did you see him celebrating like the emotion like that.

826
00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:31,520
Speaker 5: You don't see so much of that from Lebron. He

827
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:34,879
Speaker 5: said he was inspired because Aaron Donald was on the sidelines,

828
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:37,000
Speaker 5: defensive football player for the Ramps.

829
00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:38,000
Speaker 1: Right.

830
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:41,360
Speaker 2: But the reason I bring him up is because there's.

831
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:43,879
Speaker 5: A very famous cricketer called Alan Donald. So every time I.

832
00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:48,600
Speaker 2: See a wondering why you said him fast, because I

833
00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:51,480
Speaker 2: was out there, I'm like, don't tell me.

834
00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:54,120
Speaker 5: White Lightning was sitting on the court side and Staples

835
00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:57,480
Speaker 5: there and Alan Donald's nickname was weight light Lightning. Yeah, yeah,

836
00:36:57,520 --> 00:36:59,960
Speaker 5: for what reason? He was a fast bowler from South Africa.

837
00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:05,680
Speaker 5: He was lightning fast, big Allen anyway. But for the Lakers,

838
00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:08,240
Speaker 5: you know, going into the break here, they just needed

839
00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:10,520
Speaker 5: a win. They needed one and it looked like that what.

840
00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:15,680
Speaker 2: Cost though Leo Wild Yeah, now that ankle looked he rolled.

841
00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:17,880
Speaker 5: His ankle and he left straight away. X rays negative.

842
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:20,319
Speaker 5: He's having an MR right today, you know, great for him,

843
00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:21,920
Speaker 5: but it just sort of feels the same thing with

844
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:23,759
Speaker 5: Anthony Davis. As soon as he gets back, he just

845
00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:26,160
Speaker 5: can't stay healthy. You know, that's not a knock on him,

846
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:28,480
Speaker 5: it's just that's just the way it's gone for him recently.

847
00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:31,399
Speaker 5: So he will be loving the All Star break now

848
00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:34,200
Speaker 5: he gets a minimum of one week off, but he

849
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:36,160
Speaker 5: may not be back for a couple just based on

850
00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:37,799
Speaker 5: the way that you could see it. And they even

851
00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:39,320
Speaker 5: said on the call, I think it was Mark Jones,

852
00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:42,440
Speaker 5: like his ankle was touching it.

853
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:42,920
Speaker 2: It's gross.

854
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:46,840
Speaker 5: Yeah. So yeah, anyway, Lakers, good Win, good.

855
00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:49,279
Speaker 2: Win, Despoite, losing d who was playing great until he

856
00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:50,959
Speaker 2: went down there seventeen points to seventeen minutes.

857
00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:52,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, were great news that the X rays are negative

858
00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:56,520
Speaker 3: after the game, Yeah, TVD how long that it.

859
00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:57,840
Speaker 4: Is an absence?

860
00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:01,040
Speaker 3: I guess he's got a week off here before the

861
00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:03,440
Speaker 3: game start up again. That being said, I think they

862
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:06,080
Speaker 3: won because they went centerless in the fourth quarter against

863
00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:09,960
Speaker 3: Rudy Gobert Lebron playing center, and that's that's why they

864
00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:11,920
Speaker 3: went five to fifteen left in the game, they're down seven,

865
00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:14,560
Speaker 3: don't play a center of the rest of the game.

866
00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:17,239
Speaker 4: They win it twenty one to nine. The rest of

867
00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:17,720
Speaker 4: the game.

868
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:23,360
Speaker 3: Same thing happened pretty recently. Lakers Jazz fourth quarter. Jazz

869
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:25,840
Speaker 3: have Gobert on the floor, they go the Lakers go

870
00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:27,960
Speaker 3: to Lebron at the five. They went on a thirteen

871
00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:30,520
Speaker 3: ozer run and outscored the Jazz twenty nine to seventeen

872
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:34,240
Speaker 3: in the fourth to win it. That works against Rudy

873
00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:36,120
Speaker 3: sometimes Rudy's got to dominate on the other end, and

874
00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:39,200
Speaker 3: he did not do that shots. Yeah, that was that

875
00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:43,680
Speaker 3: was a very very odd stat there. Why he wasn't

876
00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:46,759
Speaker 3: focused on more? You gotta you gotta feed him? Yeah,

877
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:50,080
Speaker 3: I think to why Why? Because he can dunk the basketball.

878
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:52,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's got the beforehand.

879
00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:55,760
Speaker 4: That's a yeah, that's a problem. That's a problem.

880
00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:59,200
Speaker 1: But that's I think that's a problem with Perdy Gobert.

881
00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:01,720
Speaker 1: He needs to be better like attacking a switch because

882
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:03,279
Speaker 1: right now all you have to do to beat the

883
00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:06,480
Speaker 1: Jazz in the clutch is switch and play defense against

884
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:09,720
Speaker 1: him by switching, because go Beart can't do anything unless

885
00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:12,600
Speaker 1: it's an alley oop and or an offensive rebound. Great

886
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:14,800
Speaker 1: stat by Tony Jones at the Athletic Subscribe at the

887
00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:17,880
Speaker 1: Athletic dot com slash no dunks Jazz are zero to

888
00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:20,280
Speaker 1: eleven this season when they trail by three or fewer

889
00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:22,080
Speaker 1: points and there's two minutes left in the game and

890
00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:25,839
Speaker 1: got terrible crunch time offense because it becomes Mitchell bail

891
00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:27,759
Speaker 1: us out and that's all they've got going for him

892
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:30,360
Speaker 1: because everybody else is pretty easily guardable when you're switching

893
00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:32,239
Speaker 1: and they're not getting that kind of motion going there.

894
00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:34,480
Speaker 1: So I don't know. It feels like the same thing

895
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:36,560
Speaker 1: for the Jazz for the fifth season in a row.

896
00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:38,720
Speaker 1: Bail us out Donovan Mitchell. He can do it sometimes,

897
00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:40,200
Speaker 1: but he's not gonna be able to do it every time.

898
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:43,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I their ceiling is way higher if Rudy just

899
00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:46,880
Speaker 3: tries and it may not work, because it hasn't.

900
00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:50,000
Speaker 1: I think every team is fine though, saying yeah, Rudyo

901
00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:51,799
Speaker 1: bar is gonna beat us in the post. We'll take

902
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:53,560
Speaker 1: that percent.

903
00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:57,040
Speaker 3: That's definitely what the Lakers did last night. And I

904
00:39:57,040 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 3: got to give this shout up to stat muse for

905
00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:01,480
Speaker 3: my stat mus there.

906
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:05,040
Speaker 2: Did Lebron go to the Rams parade?

907
00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:08,759
Speaker 3: There's like ten people at that parade.

908
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:11,160
Speaker 2: You would have seen her if he was there, Okay,

909
00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:13,640
Speaker 2: guess not. He wasn't in it or he wasn't at it.

910
00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:16,240
Speaker 1: I can't believe Aaron Donald went to the game after

911
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:17,440
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl parade.

912
00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:19,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just riding that high, I guess.

913
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:22,239
Speaker 1: I know. I'm just saying I would have picked something

914
00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:22,759
Speaker 1: else to do.

915
00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:25,200
Speaker 2: He's got a great game, that's true.

916
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:27,319
Speaker 1: That's true. He could have chosen to do anything else.

917
00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:28,759
Speaker 1: Matt Stafford wasn't sitting there.

918
00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:31,120
Speaker 2: Matt Stafford was probably asleep by that point.

919
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:32,800
Speaker 1: Exactly exactly.

920
00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:34,960
Speaker 2: Well, I don't know. Does Aaron Donald drink I don't know,

921
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:35,640
Speaker 2: I don't know.

922
00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:38,040
Speaker 1: So he got his first championship of his career, Yeah,

923
00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:39,400
Speaker 1: he should have been partying, taking.

924
00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:40,680
Speaker 2: A little champagne down for sure.

925
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:44,000
Speaker 3: I know people saying that Matt Stafford, whoa, he was

926
00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:45,560
Speaker 3: hammered giving his speech.

927
00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:49,120
Speaker 4: He had a sip of tequila. It was a It

928
00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:49,800
Speaker 4: wasn't an ounce.

929
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:53,120
Speaker 2: Matt Stafford come hang out with us on Saturday night.

930
00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:55,760
Speaker 2: I'm putting back some guinness here watching the all start.

931
00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:58,239
Speaker 3: Saturday n Saturday night, there will be at least a sip.

932
00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:02,239
Speaker 3: There will be at least at Matthew Stafford sip. But yeah,

933
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:04,839
Speaker 3: people claiming like he chugged the whole bottle.

934
00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:08,080
Speaker 5: Not like Mocasol, who did actually neck the line line.

935
00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:11,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's go to the Blazers. Oh my god, break

936
00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:14,640
Speaker 2: up the Blazers. What the hell? They overcome Ja Morant's

937
00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:17,680
Speaker 2: forty four points monster game from him as they beat

938
00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:20,759
Speaker 2: the Grizzlies one twenty three to one nineteen in Memphis.

939
00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:22,640
Speaker 2: And yeah, they keep stringing together these.

940
00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 3: Victories, but this was definitely their best win of this run.

941
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:28,880
Speaker 3: Post trade deadline four straight after trading CJ. McCollum and

942
00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:33,200
Speaker 3: Norman Powell, the teardown began, but this was the best

943
00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:35,800
Speaker 3: one going into Memphis, where Joah Morant put.

944
00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:39,360
Speaker 4: Up forty four, tying his career had forty four. He

945
00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:40,840
Speaker 4: went to the line twenty five times.

946
00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:42,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, how eleven assists too?

947
00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:43,040
Speaker 5: Yeah?

948
00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:45,720
Speaker 3: How do they lose with Desmond Bain beside him dropping thirty?

949
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:49,480
Speaker 3: How do they lose that game? Because the Blazers can score.

950
00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:52,399
Speaker 3: If you watch anforty Simons at the end of this game,

951
00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:55,000
Speaker 3: when he sealed it, it was a side step free.

952
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:56,080
Speaker 2: I was thirty.

953
00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:58,000
Speaker 4: It was hard. It was hard not to think of

954
00:41:58,080 --> 00:41:58,840
Speaker 4: Damian Millard.

955
00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:02,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, the exact same form where he learned that thing,

956
00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:06,320
Speaker 3: where he's been training for three seasons behind Damian Lillard,

957
00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:10,120
Speaker 3: and he got help Josh Hart who came over from

958
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:14,359
Speaker 3: New Orleans twenty two and Yusuf Nurkic, who was able

959
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:17,279
Speaker 3: to take it into the middle against Stevie Adams had

960
00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:20,480
Speaker 3: thirty two. So they get scored. They can outscore teams,

961
00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:23,319
Speaker 3: that's for sure. And they've got these wings now with

962
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:26,040
Speaker 3: Josh Hart and Justice Winslow, who are energetic young guys

963
00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:29,279
Speaker 3: who played d Josh Hart, you can't underestimate what he

964
00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:32,440
Speaker 3: gives to a team in this role. And then Justice Winslow,

965
00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:36,480
Speaker 3: who I love. I love me some Justice Winslow. The

966
00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:41,760
Speaker 3: Grizzlies themselves didn't sign Winslow this past offseason after twenty

967
00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:45,120
Speaker 3: six game trial with the Grizzlies last year, because I've

968
00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:48,279
Speaker 3: always been infatuated with Justice Winslow ever since he came

969
00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:51,160
Speaker 3: on our show and we asked him whether or not

970
00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:53,760
Speaker 3: he bunches or folds his toilet paper.

971
00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:57,279
Speaker 4: I love Justice Winslow. I don't even know what he answered.

972
00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:57,120
Speaker 1: But.

973
00:42:58,560 --> 00:43:01,319
Speaker 3: I tweeted during the game, if Justice Winzow finds a

974
00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:04,120
Speaker 3: home here with the Portland Trail Blazers, I take back

975
00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:06,640
Speaker 3: everything I said about the Blazers last week.

976
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:08,040
Speaker 4: And then he.

977
00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:10,719
Speaker 3: Ran to the tunnel after the game. He screamed at

978
00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:14,359
Speaker 3: the crowd, you didn't want me here. Basically, he's telling

979
00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:17,440
Speaker 3: the truth. They didn't want him there. Yes, yes, I forgot.

980
00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:21,719
Speaker 3: It wasn't important. And Casey Holdalli reported that sitting there

981
00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:23,239
Speaker 3: court side that they didn't want him there.

982
00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:23,680
Speaker 4: It's true.

983
00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:26,960
Speaker 3: And then he got to the postgame media press conference

984
00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:28,720
Speaker 3: and he said, quote, look.

985
00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:30,440
Speaker 4: I found a home. I don't want to go anywhere.

986
00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:31,080
Speaker 4: I love it here.

987
00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:33,480
Speaker 3: And it's been four games, but he really enjoys it.

988
00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:38,360
Speaker 3: He enjoys the walks in nature. He said, he likes it.

989
00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:42,160
Speaker 3: He went on to say, we're really really young. Anthony

990
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:44,640
Speaker 3: Simons is in its third year. Let's build this thing.

991
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:47,200
Speaker 3: He's just he's loving this four game run that they're on.

992
00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:50,279
Speaker 3: Why the hell wouldn't he And because he's playing a role.

993
00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:54,240
Speaker 3: And he started his career in Miami, where it seems

994
00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:57,200
Speaker 3: like eons ago before the whole Jimmy Butler thing that

995
00:43:57,280 --> 00:44:00,239
Speaker 3: he was. He was their peace. He was a guy

996
00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:02,400
Speaker 3: who could play defense of their Swiss army neft. Then he

997
00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:05,239
Speaker 3: got hurt and now he's doing the same things. He's

998
00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:07,319
Speaker 3: scoring a little bits. He's not a number one score

999
00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:10,719
Speaker 3: by any means, but he can play D and switch everywhere,

1000
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:13,120
Speaker 3: and him and Josh Hart really work well together. If

1001
00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:15,319
Speaker 3: Anthorty Simons is going to be dropping thirty and that's

1002
00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:19,279
Speaker 3: the big thing. Anthrety Simons is looking like an All Star.

1003
00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:20,880
Speaker 3: I mean that's simple as.

1004
00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:24,680
Speaker 4: That incredible and it's getting the span. Isn't just a.

1005
00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:28,680
Speaker 5: Three game basically since the calendar turn.

1006
00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:30,680
Speaker 2: Is he gonna like try and pop his head into

1007
00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:33,799
Speaker 2: the most improved discussion here? Is it possible for him?

1008
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:36,160
Speaker 5: Yea too late, but it's probably a little too late,

1009
00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:37,920
Speaker 5: but if he can keep it up, he might get

1010
00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:39,560
Speaker 5: a bit more buzz around him. But yeah, I mean,

1011
00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:41,799
Speaker 5: this is apparently what we're hearing out of Portland is

1012
00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:44,520
Speaker 5: that that's the guy they want to make as you know,

1013
00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:47,080
Speaker 5: their future sort of not necessarily built around, but he's

1014
00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:49,560
Speaker 5: the one they're gonna look towards now. So this is

1015
00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:51,600
Speaker 5: all makes it very interesting to see what they do

1016
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:52,720
Speaker 5: decide to do with Lilard.

1017
00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:55,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the thing. It's like, this is awesome from him.

1018
00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:57,680
Speaker 2: But if we're Lillard were to come back, you know

1019
00:44:57,719 --> 00:44:59,560
Speaker 2: he's not, but he were to come back next week, Tray,

1020
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:02,200
Speaker 2: it's like you know, does that not take the ball

1021
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:04,359
Speaker 2: out of you know, Simon's hands and stuff like that.

1022
00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:09,399
Speaker 2: Not Simmons, you know, can that work with the two

1023
00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:11,879
Speaker 2: of them? That's the problem to me, especially defensively, that's

1024
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:13,399
Speaker 2: a you're giving up a whole lot.

1025
00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:18,400
Speaker 1: If only there was like years of evidence. Can a

1026
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:24,040
Speaker 1: Blazers team built around Damian Lillard in another guard really succeed?

1027
00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:28,200
Speaker 1: Can they only one way to find out? Run it

1028
00:45:28,239 --> 00:45:32,960
Speaker 1: back once again? I don't know. Encouraging stuff for the Blazers,

1029
00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:35,439
Speaker 1: and honestly encouraging stuff if you're the Grizzlies as well,

1030
00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:39,239
Speaker 1: because this is their worst defensive game since November when

1031
00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:41,360
Speaker 1: they weren't really a great defensive team. They turned it

1032
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:44,560
Speaker 1: around since then. So this to me says we looked

1033
00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:46,839
Speaker 1: at the Blazers and thought we were gonna win this

1034
00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:49,040
Speaker 1: one playing offense. That's how you know you've become a

1035
00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:51,600
Speaker 1: great team when you overlook the good team. So shout

1036
00:45:51,600 --> 00:45:52,480
Speaker 1: out to the Grizzlies.

1037
00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:57,640
Speaker 5: Breaking news. We've done it.

1038
00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:03,720

Speaker 2: It was it was years ago, Yeah it was.

1056

Speaker 5: It was. I can't remember what triggered that, but I've

1057
00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:57,399
Speaker 5: got the lyrics still here.

00:46:57,719 --> 00:46:59,520
Speaker 2: Okay, why do you maybe save this for Saturday?

Speaker 2: Then sure, nat Saturday, I'll get you a cowboy hat

1061
00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:05,040
Speaker 2: or something like that. Did Dusty hair a cowboy hat?

1062
00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:06,080
Speaker 5: But he must have?

1063
00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:06,359
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1064
00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:07,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, slim Dusty.

1065
00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:13,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I col him Dusty some respect. Okay, some more games.

1066
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:15,920
Speaker 2: That's great. Fifty thousand stars, we love it. Monty Morris

1067
00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:20,480
Speaker 2: nailed a game winning buzzer beater to stun the Warriors

1068
00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:23,240
Speaker 2: last night. I can't believe the Nuggets pulled out this victory.

1069
00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:25,680
Speaker 2: They were down like seven points with like yes seconds

1070
00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:26,239
Speaker 2: or something to go.

1071
00:47:26,480 --> 00:47:29,000
Speaker 5: They basically were down until fifteen seconds to go when

1072
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:30,960
Speaker 5: they got the lead. And then Steph Curry went down

1073
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:33,600
Speaker 5: the other way, got an end one, put the Warriors

1074
00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:36,359
Speaker 5: up to look like the Warriors would probably be safe

1075
00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:38,600
Speaker 5: from there, and then Steph Curry fell asleep on the

1076
00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:40,879
Speaker 5: defensive end to allow Montey Morris to get that shot.

1077
00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:42,920
Speaker 5: Nikola Jokich had the ball goes.

1078
00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:45,719
Speaker 2: Into the all eyes on the Joker well, but.

1079
00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:48,319
Speaker 5: Steph was in no man's land. He was kind of

1080
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:51,120
Speaker 5: like half doubling, but then kind of gambling that Monte

1081
00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:53,359
Speaker 5: Morris wouldn't get it. Nikola Jokic made a great pass

1082
00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:55,239
Speaker 5: and it was a great shot. I mean Steph closed out.

1083
00:47:55,239 --> 00:47:57,040
Speaker 5: But in the NBA, those guys get that shot off

1084
00:47:57,040 --> 00:47:59,000
Speaker 5: too quick. It's not like a Wednesday night run of

1085
00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:03,040
Speaker 5: the I don't know why where you know, but anyway,

1086
00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:06,719
Speaker 5: and after the game, some deserve criticism. I think of

1087
00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:10,600
Speaker 5: Steph and of Steve Kerr because Steph didn't even really

1088
00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:12,600
Speaker 5: have to be on the court for that possession. Gary

1089
00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:14,680
Speaker 5: Payton could have been and wasn't, had a great game,

1090
00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:18,720
Speaker 5: had six deals, is obviously a more intense defensive player anyway,

1091
00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:21,920
Speaker 5: And Steve Kerr in the past has actually made that switch,

1092
00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:23,600
Speaker 5: and he didn't, and he sort of said afterwards, I

1093
00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:25,359
Speaker 5: made the wrong decision, and I think he did.

1094
00:48:25,400 --> 00:48:25,520
Speaker 2: So.

1095
00:48:26,239 --> 00:48:31,760
Speaker 5: The Warriors again, still forty two and seventeen, but struggling

1096
00:48:31,840 --> 00:48:35,719
Speaker 5: a little bit here, playing some of the less convincing

1097
00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:38,359
Speaker 5: basketball of the season right now. They'll still be fine.

1098
00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:41,640
Speaker 5: They'll probably still finish second, especially with the Grizzlies losing

1099
00:48:41,719 --> 00:48:44,239
Speaker 5: last night, lost a chance to catch up to them there.

1100
00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:49,120
Speaker 5: But yeah, great win from the Nuggets here. Really what

1101
00:48:49,239 --> 00:48:51,240
Speaker 5: to pull this one off. They were down, as you mentioned,

1102
00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:53,840
Speaker 5: about eight points. I think with about two minutes to go,

1103
00:48:54,239 --> 00:48:57,000
Speaker 5: just chipped away, chipped away, got to that chance to

1104
00:48:57,000 --> 00:48:59,080
Speaker 5: give themselves a chance to win, and Montey Morris steps

1105
00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:03,120
Speaker 5: up Brent Forbes at a twenty two points to so

1106
00:49:04,120 --> 00:49:05,920
Speaker 5: now gets great stuff for them.

1107
00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:08,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, Denver, you know, thirty three and twenty five as

1108
00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:11,120
Speaker 2: we head into the All Star break here sixth in

1109
00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:13,280
Speaker 2: the West, and this is without of course Jamal Murray

1110
00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:16,320
Speaker 2: without Michael Porter Jr. And it's all led by Yokich.

1111
00:49:16,320 --> 00:49:19,959
Speaker 2: Even that final play, it's like the defense just collapses

1112
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:23,799
Speaker 2: on this guy because nobody can stop him. It's twenty

1113
00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:25,799
Speaker 2: five to fifteen in his sleep at this point. And

1114
00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:28,080
Speaker 2: then you know, basically almost tennis this too.

1115
00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:29,759
Speaker 4: Because he's so comfortable.

1116
00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:33,279
Speaker 3: Even if you throw one body at him, he's going

1117
00:49:33,320 --> 00:49:35,279
Speaker 3: to punish you way, even if it's the forty eighth

1118
00:49:35,280 --> 00:49:39,000
Speaker 3: minute of the game. He's he's definitely got the conditioning

1119
00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:41,440
Speaker 3: to just put a guy into the lady put the.

1120
00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:44,920
Speaker 2: Mooney in the bucket like a couple plays prior. Like

1121
00:49:45,040 --> 00:49:47,880
Speaker 2: Mooney's a giant of a man. It was like he

1122
00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:50,359
Speaker 2: was my size. Like with Yokich's back, I'll just put

1123
00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:52,520
Speaker 2: you in the hoop and then just flipping on.

1124
00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:53,480
Speaker 4: He's got it many.

1125
00:49:53,680 --> 00:49:56,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's definitely improved that part, the conditioning part, and

1126
00:49:56,600 --> 00:49:59,400
Speaker 3: then yeah, he's a threat obviously to pass to everybody

1127
00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:01,840
Speaker 3: on the floor, all four guys at any time. I

1128
00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:04,680
Speaker 3: just can't wait for Jamal Murray to join this guy.

1129
00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:07,560
Speaker 3: He is Jamal Murray is a guy who can create

1130
00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:09,239
Speaker 3: a little bit more off the dribble than the guys

1131
00:50:09,239 --> 00:50:12,080
Speaker 3: that they currently have and it's coming.

1132
00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:15,400
Speaker 4: It sure sounds like Jamal Murray. All to talk about

1133
00:50:15,520 --> 00:50:19,839
Speaker 4: was Kawhi coming back? What's happening there? Well, this one

1134
00:50:19,920 --> 00:50:23,040
Speaker 4: with the Nuggets is seems legitimate. Yeah, Zion, is he

1135
00:50:23,080 --> 00:50:23,640
Speaker 4: coming back?

1136
00:50:23,920 --> 00:50:26,360
Speaker 3: This one in Denver where Jamal Murray is going to

1137
00:50:26,360 --> 00:50:28,799
Speaker 3: be the running mate for a guy who you are

1138
00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:31,919
Speaker 3: sixth in the Western Conference and this is the best

1139
00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:34,719
Speaker 3: version Nicole Yokic. Doesn't matter if he won MVP last year.

1140
00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:39,080
Speaker 3: He's better. He truly is. He is the threat of

1141
00:50:39,120 --> 00:50:42,120
Speaker 3: all threats. This Western Conference play picker is gonna be

1142
00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:43,920
Speaker 3: bloodbath that it would be great if Jamal Murray comes back,

1143
00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:45,160
Speaker 3: and it sure feels like he is.

1144
00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:46,680
Speaker 2: Anything down to this one.

1145
00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:50,200
Speaker 1: I just love the clutch moments that Jokic is wrapping

1146
00:50:50,320 --> 00:50:52,000
Speaker 1: up so far in this season. I don't think he

1147
00:50:52,040 --> 00:50:55,120
Speaker 1: has a game winning shot this season. I was going

1148
00:50:55,160 --> 00:50:57,640
Speaker 1: back and trying to find like a buzzer beating game winner.

1149
00:50:57,640 --> 00:50:59,160
Speaker 1: I don't think he has it. But he's got three

1150
00:50:59,239 --> 00:51:01,920
Speaker 1: game winning block and now two game winning assists for

1151
00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:04,759
Speaker 1: three pointers, Like at the very last second when it's

1152
00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:07,920
Speaker 1: clear that the defense is saying, you're not beating us

1153
00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:09,880
Speaker 1: right now Jokic, it's got to be somebody else, so

1154
00:51:09,920 --> 00:51:12,880
Speaker 1: he's still trusting his teammates. He found Aaron Gordon in

1155
00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:15,239
Speaker 1: the corner for the three, and then Monte Morris last

1156
00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:18,120
Speaker 1: night at the very last second, like he couldn't have

1157
00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:21,759
Speaker 1: passed that split second later or would have been would

1158
00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:24,040
Speaker 1: have been too late. But uh, great stuff for Yoki's

1159
00:51:24,040 --> 00:51:25,919
Speaker 1: great stuff for the Nuggets. Hopefully he gets a game

1160
00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:29,040
Speaker 1: winning shot as well, so we can have like ten

1161
00:51:29,120 --> 00:51:31,120
Speaker 1: game winning plays and a couple of them are actually

1162
00:51:31,120 --> 00:51:33,800
Speaker 1: buckets as well. But Nuggets moved eight no with Boogie

1163
00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:36,359
Speaker 1: Cousins in the lineup. Hey, the Buggy Nuggets, they're good.

1164
00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:40,719
Speaker 2: There you go. The Suns rallied without Chris Paul, which

1165
00:51:40,719 --> 00:51:43,200
Speaker 2: we can talk about, and they beat the Rockets for

1166
00:51:43,239 --> 00:51:44,919
Speaker 2: their seventh Street victory. Trade.

1167
00:51:44,960 --> 00:51:47,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, pretty weird one in Phoenix. Chris Paul, like you said,

1168
00:51:47,600 --> 00:51:52,040
Speaker 1: he was ejected in the third quarter or bumping a referee.

1169
00:51:52,200 --> 00:51:54,759
Speaker 1: Contact was made, no doubt about it. The Rockets took

1170
00:51:54,760 --> 00:51:57,680
Speaker 1: a lead into the fourth quarter. They actually still had

1171
00:51:57,680 --> 00:52:00,920
Speaker 1: the lead with two minutes remaining. No Chrispaul thought there

1172
00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:03,200
Speaker 1: was a chance the Sons might actually blow a game

1173
00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:04,040
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter.

1174
00:52:04,239 --> 00:52:04,720
Speaker 4: Just kidding.

1175
00:52:06,400 --> 00:52:09,000
Speaker 1: Sons outscored the Rockets by six in the last two

1176
00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:11,480
Speaker 1: minutes to close things out. There were some dicey moments.

1177
00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:13,920
Speaker 1: I didn't think they looked quite as composed as when

1178
00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:17,440
Speaker 1: Chris Paul is running the show. But Michale Bridges, I thought,

1179
00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:19,560
Speaker 1: really stepped up with Chris Paul gone. He had seventeen

1180
00:52:19,600 --> 00:52:22,000
Speaker 1: points seven rebounds. Ten of those came in the fourth

1181
00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:26,000
Speaker 1: hit the floater with about minute ten left to take

1182
00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:27,799
Speaker 1: the lead, and then he had to put back off

1183
00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:30,360
Speaker 1: Devin Booker miss after nothing was going on for the

1184
00:52:30,400 --> 00:52:33,200
Speaker 1: Suns in that possession, just enough plays to win. But

1185
00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:35,719
Speaker 1: the most important thing going forward, it's got to be

1186
00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:38,200
Speaker 1: Chris Paul's hand, because that was just a weird play.

1187
00:52:38,560 --> 00:52:41,520
Speaker 1: It eventually led to his to his ejection. He passed

1188
00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:43,600
Speaker 1: the ball. I don't remember who the defender was, but

1189
00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:45,839
Speaker 1: as he passed the ball, he like hit the defender's

1190
00:52:46,040 --> 00:52:49,160
Speaker 1: arm and immediately he was grabbing. He was really upset.

1191
00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:53,160
Speaker 1: The ejection to me was bogus, Like, I understand it's

1192
00:52:53,200 --> 00:52:55,359
Speaker 1: correct by the rules they made contact, but I didn't

1193
00:52:55,400 --> 00:52:58,480
Speaker 1: feel like Chris Paul was complaining as much as Chris

1194
00:52:58,480 --> 00:53:02,160
Speaker 1: Paul normally does. He goes way more overboard there. It

1195
00:53:02,200 --> 00:53:04,640
Speaker 1: felt like the ref came into him a little bit. Also,

1196
00:53:04,719 --> 00:53:07,439
Speaker 1: to be fair to the referee, not a foul. Chris

1197
00:53:07,480 --> 00:53:13,280
Speaker 1: Paul didn't know, but you you literally like as passing

1198
00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:16,120
Speaker 1: it hit, Yeah, exactly. It wasn't a foul, So I

1199
00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:19,640
Speaker 1: can understand the ref be like, hey man, easy buddy. Yeah,

1200
00:53:19,680 --> 00:53:21,840
Speaker 1: and they bumped whatever, it wasn't a malicious bump. He

1201
00:53:21,880 --> 00:53:24,399
Speaker 1: got ejected. So we'll see what happens with Chris Paul.

1202
00:53:24,480 --> 00:53:27,040
Speaker 1: Chris Haynes reported that he's going to have an MRI

1203
00:53:27,280 --> 00:53:30,760
Speaker 1: on his hand today. Monty Williams said there's no update,

1204
00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:33,480
Speaker 1: Devin Booker said he's fine, there'll be in the All

1205
00:53:33,480 --> 00:53:36,239
Speaker 1: Star Game, and Michale Bridges says, I'm praying for him. So, like,

1206
00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:39,520
Speaker 1: what's going on with his hand, Let's wait and see

1207
00:53:39,520 --> 00:53:42,080
Speaker 1: what the doctors say, because I don't know a hand

1208
00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:44,839
Speaker 1: could keep Chris Paul out for a little bit of time.

1209
00:53:45,120 --> 00:53:47,640
Speaker 1: Something's actually hurt here. But there's six and a half

1210
00:53:47,680 --> 00:53:49,759
Speaker 1: games up on the Warriors right now, so at the

1211
00:53:49,880 --> 00:53:53,120
Speaker 1: very least he's got a little bit of a cushion

1212
00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:54,000
Speaker 1: to chill if he.

1213
00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:56,880
Speaker 3: Needs to on that injury front real quick. Here the

1214
00:53:57,160 --> 00:54:00,279
Speaker 3: stream team alerting me to some potential new was on

1215
00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:04,400
Speaker 3: Zion Williamson. Here are reporting yesterday. I didn't see this

1216
00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:08,279
Speaker 3: the New Orleans Times picker you, Christian Clark, reporting that

1217
00:54:08,360 --> 00:54:11,640
Speaker 3: Zion Williamson may need to have a second surgery on

1218
00:54:11,719 --> 00:54:12,280
Speaker 3: his foot.

1219
00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:14,760
Speaker 2: So it's I meant to send that to your task,

1220
00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:17,360
Speaker 2: but I know how excited you were and convinced that

1221
00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:19,239
Speaker 2: I was coming back. I didn't have it in meana

1222
00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:22,399
Speaker 2: to ruin your day yesterday. I saw that, Yeah he's

1223
00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:23,200
Speaker 2: not playing.

1224
00:54:22,880 --> 00:54:27,520
Speaker 3: I don't Yeah, if he needs a second surgery, right right,

1225
00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:28,280
Speaker 3: that's unfortunately.

1226
00:54:28,280 --> 00:54:29,840
Speaker 2: What do you think about the whole Crispaul thing or

1227
00:54:29,840 --> 00:54:32,560
Speaker 2: the Sun's victory here of the Rockets the ejection.

1228
00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:37,520
Speaker 5: Look, the Chris Paul was walking to where the referee

1229
00:54:37,520 --> 00:54:39,040
Speaker 5: is and the ref kind of turned, and I think

1230
00:54:39,040 --> 00:54:40,960
Speaker 5: the ref was like, Okay, you were just doing that

1231
00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:45,879
Speaker 5: on purpose. Yeah, to get ejected for it, it's tough,

1232
00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:48,040
Speaker 5: but it's also like you didn't maybe need to be

1233
00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:49,279
Speaker 5: quite that close to him.

1234
00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:53,359
Speaker 6: He didn't make much of a c but he just

1235
00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:55,640
Speaker 6: he just he makes it like he puts like you

1236
00:54:55,640 --> 00:54:58,560
Speaker 6: don't just accidentally, Well, he just wants Chris Paul just

1237
00:54:58,560 --> 00:55:01,319
Speaker 6: wants to go right to that and exactly, and the

1238
00:55:01,360 --> 00:55:03,479
Speaker 6: ref was just because the ref was, you know, making

1239
00:55:03,480 --> 00:55:05,600
Speaker 6: the court and I think he turned and he felt

1240
00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:06,080
Speaker 6: the contact.

1241
00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:07,759
Speaker 5: He's like, you did that on purpose. Get out.

1242
00:55:07,800 --> 00:55:09,640
Speaker 2: It was the equivalent of your two sons, one of

1243
00:55:09,680 --> 00:55:12,120
Speaker 2: them going I'm not touching the exactly, I'm not touching you.

1244
00:55:12,160 --> 00:55:14,000
Speaker 2: I'm not touching the other one like reaches out and

1245
00:55:14,080 --> 00:55:15,319
Speaker 2: like you know, bops him in the head.

1246
00:55:15,360 --> 00:55:17,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, and so you don't want to see him ejected.

1247
00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:20,520
Speaker 5: But it's also like, just don't be a dick.

1248
00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:22,040
Speaker 2: He does that occasionally.

1249
00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:24,879
Speaker 5: He is such an incredible player and it's so good

1250
00:55:24,920 --> 00:55:27,200
Speaker 5: seeing him still perform at this level. But he does

1251
00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:27,919
Speaker 5: be a dick.

1252
00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:30,000
Speaker 2: Okay, I got a weird Let me put on my

1253
00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:33,160
Speaker 2: tinfoil hat here. Conspiracy theory. Chris Paul is such a leader, right,

1254
00:55:33,200 --> 00:55:34,680
Speaker 2: one of the great leaders in NBA history. I think

1255
00:55:34,680 --> 00:55:37,880
Speaker 2: we would agree with that. What if he's faking this

1256
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:40,719
Speaker 2: hand injury, especially the way it happened Trey, like you said,

1257
00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:43,640
Speaker 2: passing the ball bashes his hand off again and he's like,

1258
00:55:43,880 --> 00:55:48,359
Speaker 2: my hand gets tossed, maybe leans into the injury. This

1259
00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:51,040
Speaker 2: is me saying it's all fake because he wants Michael

1260
00:55:51,080 --> 00:55:53,000
Speaker 2: Bridges selected to the All Star.

1261
00:55:54,680 --> 00:55:56,040
Speaker 1: Do you think he's given up his spot?

1262
00:55:56,160 --> 00:55:58,600
Speaker 2: Yes, Kale such a leader. He's like, I've played in

1263
00:55:58,640 --> 00:56:00,759
Speaker 2: a million All Star games. I could take the time

1264
00:56:00,800 --> 00:56:04,200
Speaker 2: off if I don't have to play because I'm injured.

1265
00:56:04,680 --> 00:56:07,759
Speaker 2: They'll probably just pick mckaal Bridges Sons with an unbelievable

1266
00:56:07,800 --> 00:56:10,640
Speaker 2: record here. They're nearly a fifty fricking wins here. That's

1267
00:56:10,680 --> 00:56:11,480
Speaker 2: my conspiracy.

1268
00:56:11,600 --> 00:56:12,560
Speaker 4: I like it. It's good.

1269
00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:15,160
Speaker 1: I like it because McHale Bridges definitely would not get

1270
00:56:15,200 --> 00:56:17,960
Speaker 1: picked if he's the replacement. It would even be the

1271
00:56:17,960 --> 00:56:20,600
Speaker 1: replacement if they were picking from the sunsh.

1272
00:56:21,840 --> 00:56:24,759
Speaker 2: Eyton, Nah, I don't think so. Yeah, I don't think.

1273
00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:26,719
Speaker 1: Think about how many of these prop bets you've lost

1274
00:56:26,719 --> 00:56:27,480
Speaker 1: on Michael Bridges.

1275
00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:28,680
Speaker 2: It's true.

1276
00:56:28,719 --> 00:56:31,799
Speaker 1: He's before Bridges for sure, really guaranteed.

1277
00:56:32,239 --> 00:56:35,160
Speaker 2: You watch, you watch. I'm gonna talk this one into existence.

1278
00:56:35,200 --> 00:56:36,520
Speaker 2: Mckail bridge is going to be an All Star.

1279
00:56:37,200 --> 00:56:41,040
Speaker 4: Ruin your slam dunk just newsbreaking reputation.

1280
00:56:41,440 --> 00:56:43,279
Speaker 5: At what point, though, is Adam Silva say all right,

1281
00:56:43,320 --> 00:56:46,040
Speaker 5: I'm not making a replacements too late, you know, because

1282
00:56:46,080 --> 00:56:46,359
Speaker 5: he's not.

1283
00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:48,120
Speaker 2: I think he has done that in the past someone

1284
00:56:48,880 --> 00:56:49,600
Speaker 2: got too close.

1285
00:56:49,719 --> 00:56:51,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, and it was like, all right, it's too late

1286
00:56:51,080 --> 00:56:51,640
Speaker 5: to get a replay.

1287
00:56:51,680 --> 00:56:54,200
Speaker 1: Gave Mike Colmleay that bone throw last year pretty late.

1288
00:56:54,400 --> 00:56:57,279
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I know, I think it was a couple

1289
00:56:57,320 --> 00:56:57,799
Speaker 5: of years ago.

1290
00:56:57,840 --> 00:57:02,160
Speaker 2: But anyway, my only final thought from the game, it's

1291
00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:04,040
Speaker 2: just so nice to have on your team when you

1292
00:57:04,080 --> 00:57:05,840
Speaker 2: want to win a lot of games. A guy at

1293
00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:07,640
Speaker 2: Lee you like this. You can just put to the

1294
00:57:07,640 --> 00:57:09,759
Speaker 2: free throw line and say, just hit free throws and

1295
00:57:09,760 --> 00:57:12,440
Speaker 2: we'll win the game. Because Cam Johnson split a pair.

1296
00:57:12,840 --> 00:57:16,040
Speaker 2: This was late. Jae Crowder I believe split a pair.

1297
00:57:16,240 --> 00:57:18,520
Speaker 2: It was late. But then just get the ball. Devin Booker,

1298
00:57:18,720 --> 00:57:20,880
Speaker 2: they have to foul, and he's just like sort of

1299
00:57:20,880 --> 00:57:23,080
Speaker 2: money usually like you know, of course every guy misses

1300
00:57:23,120 --> 00:57:24,640
Speaker 2: one or two here or there. Yeah, but he's like

1301
00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:26,840
Speaker 2: an eighty five eighty six percent pre throw shooter. He's

1302
00:57:26,880 --> 00:57:28,400
Speaker 2: not afraid of the moment as long as there's no

1303
00:57:28,440 --> 00:57:31,640
Speaker 2: mascot distracted and just like it's such a luxury. And

1304
00:57:31,640 --> 00:57:33,200
Speaker 2: you could add Chris Paul when he plays, you know,

1305
00:57:33,280 --> 00:57:35,920
Speaker 2: same thing. It's like, get the ball. That guy he's

1306
00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:37,640
Speaker 2: gonna get wrapped up and more times than not, he's

1307
00:57:37,640 --> 00:57:39,439
Speaker 2: just gonna slash two free throws and they're not gonna

1308
00:57:39,480 --> 00:57:41,040
Speaker 2: hit rim and you're gonna go home happy.

1309
00:57:41,120 --> 00:57:42,720
Speaker 5: It's funny you bring that. I meant to bring up

1310
00:57:42,720 --> 00:57:45,200
Speaker 5: in the Warriors game. Actually, Kavon Looney was hacked a

1311
00:57:45,200 --> 00:57:48,480
Speaker 5: couple of right, and then Nikola Jokich made a pretty

1312
00:57:48,480 --> 00:57:51,200
Speaker 5: smart hacker move with under two minutes to go that

1313
00:57:51,440 --> 00:57:54,400
Speaker 5: wasn't couldn't be called a hacker because he was in

1314
00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:56,480
Speaker 5: the play, but he still hacked him and he missed

1315
00:57:56,480 --> 00:57:59,480
Speaker 5: both free throws. So that was very very clever, underrated

1316
00:57:59,560 --> 00:58:00,000
Speaker 5: play there.

1317
00:58:00,120 --> 00:58:04,160
Speaker 2: Hmm, nice smart thinking. Yeah, final game, Wow, we did it, guys.

1318
00:58:04,360 --> 00:58:06,760
Speaker 2: Keldon Johnson scored twenty two as the Spurs top the

1319
00:58:06,840 --> 00:58:09,120
Speaker 2: Thunder one fourteen one six. I got three notes from this.

1320
00:58:09,680 --> 00:58:13,440
Speaker 2: First off, your boy, Josh, Yeah, flowing locks third straight

1321
00:58:13,440 --> 00:58:16,560
Speaker 2: triple double in the loss. Okay, Thunder fans don't care.

1322
00:58:16,600 --> 00:58:18,680
Speaker 2: They want entertaining games, and they want their young guys

1323
00:58:18,680 --> 00:58:20,040
Speaker 2: to put up stats, and they want to lose these

1324
00:58:20,040 --> 00:58:22,200
Speaker 2: games because they're obviously still looking for another good draft pick.

1325
00:58:22,360 --> 00:58:26,240
Speaker 2: Seventeen points Z ten boards, tennysis for giddy. Yes, the

1326
00:58:26,280 --> 00:58:30,200
Speaker 2: Thunder says he's the first rookie since Oscar Robertson during

1327
00:58:30,240 --> 00:58:33,600
Speaker 2: the sixty sixty one season to record at least three

1328
00:58:33,600 --> 00:58:34,280
Speaker 2: straight triple levels.

1329
00:58:34,360 --> 00:58:37,400
Speaker 5: We've had Wilt Chamberlain, I know, Parrisons and now Oscar

1330
00:58:37,480 --> 00:58:39,920
Speaker 5: Robinson comparison, it's crazy. What the great morning it is?

1331
00:58:39,960 --> 00:58:42,680
Speaker 5: We got fifty thousand, right, that big it's a big

1332
00:58:42,760 --> 00:58:43,200
Speaker 5: dame for us.

1333
00:58:44,240 --> 00:58:46,880
Speaker 2: Keldon Johnson, nice game, I said twenty two. He's averaging

1334
00:58:46,960 --> 00:58:49,120
Speaker 2: nineteen and five over his last ten or eleven, shooting

1335
00:58:49,160 --> 00:58:51,520
Speaker 2: forty seven percent from the floor, thirty nine percent from

1336
00:58:51,520 --> 00:58:54,080
Speaker 2: distance on a decent amount of attempts. He never turns

1337
00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:55,920
Speaker 2: the ball over. I only bring that up because I

1338
00:58:55,920 --> 00:58:58,040
Speaker 2: feel like we haven't talked a lot about Keldon Johnson

1339
00:58:58,040 --> 00:59:00,720
Speaker 2: this year. It's all and rightfully so John Ta Murray,

1340
00:59:00,720 --> 00:59:03,320
Speaker 2: de John Ta Murray, John Tay Murray. But here's Kelvin Johnson,

1341
00:59:03,560 --> 00:59:06,480
Speaker 2: you know, having played on tam Usa, you know, getting

1342
00:59:06,480 --> 00:59:08,720
Speaker 2: it going here. So I'm liking that. And then finally,

1343
00:59:08,800 --> 00:59:13,000
Speaker 2: with his one thousandth three hundred and thirty third career

1344
00:59:13,040 --> 00:59:15,400
Speaker 2: victory Greg Popovich, he broke a tie with Hall of

1345
00:59:15,400 --> 00:59:18,439
Speaker 2: Famer Lenny Wilkins to claim sole possession of number two

1346
00:59:18,480 --> 00:59:21,800
Speaker 2: spot on the all time NBA coaching wins. So three more,

1347
00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:24,720
Speaker 2: three more wins here for the Spurs and Pop will

1348
00:59:24,760 --> 00:59:27,560
Speaker 2: be alone at the top. Don Nelson currently holds the record.

1349
00:59:27,560 --> 00:59:29,360
Speaker 2: But I remember at the start of the season in

1350
00:59:29,440 --> 00:59:32,600
Speaker 2: the playoff preview shows, we were like, are they going

1351
00:59:32,680 --> 00:59:33,120
Speaker 2: to is?

1352
00:59:33,160 --> 00:59:33,400
Speaker 1: Pop?

1353
00:59:33,400 --> 00:59:34,880
Speaker 2: And the Spurs are the gonna win enough games this

1354
00:59:34,920 --> 00:59:37,040
Speaker 2: season to do it? So it's it's only a matter

1355
00:59:37,080 --> 00:59:39,200
Speaker 2: of time. I looked at their schedule when he could

1356
00:59:39,240 --> 00:59:42,000
Speaker 2: do this. Next three games after the All Star Break,

1357
00:59:42,000 --> 00:59:43,440
Speaker 2: they're all on the road. Jady, what the hell is

1358
00:59:43,480 --> 00:59:49,840
Speaker 2: going on over there? Yeah, you are like the corner

1359
00:59:49,840 --> 00:59:51,920
Speaker 2: of my eye and you're zooming on everyone except me.

1360
00:59:52,000 --> 00:59:53,440
Speaker 4: Too many buttons?

1361
00:59:53,560 --> 00:59:59,240
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, he's getting ready to see Lee's reaction. Okay,

1362
00:59:59,280 --> 01:00:03,080
Speaker 2: go to So the three games after the All Star break,

1363
01:00:03,080 --> 01:00:06,400
Speaker 2: they're still on this long road trip at Washington, at Miami,

1364
01:00:06,440 --> 01:00:10,640
Speaker 2: and then at Memphis. I mean, maybe they win one,

1365
01:00:10,920 --> 01:00:13,880
Speaker 2: maybe you win two, but more likely one. Then they

1366
01:00:14,080 --> 01:00:16,200
Speaker 2: then they host the Kings on March third. Then they

1367
01:00:16,240 --> 01:00:17,720
Speaker 2: got to fly all the way back to Charlotte for

1368
01:00:17,720 --> 01:00:20,160
Speaker 2: one game on the road on March fifth, and after

1369
01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:22,360
Speaker 2: that they got a seven game homestand so that's when

1370
01:00:22,400 --> 01:00:24,760
Speaker 2: I believe it's going to happen. Maybe in the first

1371
01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:27,120
Speaker 2: or second game of that very long homestand there in

1372
01:00:27,360 --> 01:00:29,120
Speaker 2: whatever sort of early ish March.

1373
01:00:29,200 --> 01:00:31,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, they want to do it in San Antonio.

1374
01:00:31,320 --> 01:00:32,920
Speaker 2: They want to do it. You'll throw games on the

1375
01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:33,800
Speaker 2: road to make it happen.

1376
01:00:33,840 --> 01:00:35,800
Speaker 5: I can already see the headline top of the Pops.

1377
01:00:36,200 --> 01:00:40,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, you want to call the thumbnail that now exactly? Yeah, okay,

1378
01:00:40,440 --> 01:00:42,000
Speaker 2: they don't think pop on top.

1379
01:00:43,240 --> 01:00:47,640
Speaker 5: Top of the Pops. That's good top, I mean, mm hmmmm.

1380
01:00:48,400 --> 01:00:50,560
Speaker 2: Anything else? Any other headline suggestions?

1381
01:00:50,560 --> 01:00:53,480
Speaker 3: Oh no, you guys hit it. We don't have to

1382
01:00:53,560 --> 01:00:57,000
Speaker 3: keep going further. I think those were good. Yeah, just

1383
01:00:57,280 --> 01:00:59,680
Speaker 3: credit to the Thunder have made it an entertaining season

1384
01:00:59,720 --> 01:01:02,280
Speaker 3: for them. They lost by seventy three points earlier in

1385
01:01:02,320 --> 01:01:03,400
Speaker 3: the season, remember that.

1386
01:01:03,520 --> 01:01:05,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, you guys said the sky was falling.

1387
01:01:05,280 --> 01:01:12,680
Speaker 4: It was. But well, I want them to try.

1388
01:01:12,560 --> 01:01:17,120
Speaker 3: The players that they have put together are obviously playing

1389
01:01:17,120 --> 01:01:18,760
Speaker 3: above their head, I mean, not playing a bother heads.

1390
01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:22,040
Speaker 3: Are are achieving more than we expected them to Josh gidding.

1391
01:01:22,080 --> 01:01:24,920
Speaker 3: No one expected them to be this good this early.

1392
01:01:25,360 --> 01:01:29,160
Speaker 3: So they are doing exactly what Thunder fans want, making

1393
01:01:29,760 --> 01:01:33,400
Speaker 3: respectable losses happens.

1394
01:01:32,480 --> 01:01:33,080
Speaker 4: That's what they want.

1395
01:01:33,360 --> 01:01:36,040
Speaker 3: We just we glossed over what the Rockets did against

1396
01:01:36,080 --> 01:01:38,960
Speaker 3: the Suns. They had an incredible game to take the

1397
01:01:39,000 --> 01:01:42,080
Speaker 3: Suns down to the wire. This team was even more

1398
01:01:42,120 --> 01:01:45,640
Speaker 3: discombobulated earlier this season of people wondering what the hell

1399
01:01:45,720 --> 01:01:48,200
Speaker 3: is going on with Kevin Porter Junior and the blow

1400
01:01:48,280 --> 01:01:50,400
Speaker 3: ups and Christian Wood and things are just going to

1401
01:01:50,480 --> 01:01:53,880
Speaker 3: go awry. I mean, they fought, they like each other there.

1402
01:01:54,200 --> 01:01:57,440
Speaker 3: They continue to have great, respectable losses. They want to

1403
01:01:57,440 --> 01:02:00,600
Speaker 3: have their draft pick too. So those two teams, it's

1404
01:02:00,640 --> 01:02:02,760
Speaker 3: a good, crappy season for both of them.

1405
01:02:03,480 --> 01:02:04,040
Speaker 1: So there you go.

1406
01:02:04,120 --> 01:02:06,400
Speaker 2: We just touched on all eleven games from last night,

1407
01:02:06,440 --> 01:02:09,040
Speaker 2: but there's one more game still to talk about and

1408
01:02:09,080 --> 01:02:13,520
Speaker 2: we'll get to that after this break. We never got

1409
01:02:13,600 --> 01:02:16,320
Speaker 2: the ending to that story. Did you find a pair

1410
01:02:16,360 --> 01:02:20,520
Speaker 2: of fantastic rubber gloves dishwashing gloves?

1411
01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:24,240
Speaker 5: Yes? I did washing up gloves, washing up two for

1412
01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:25,120
Speaker 5: one one.

1413
01:02:27,240 --> 01:02:28,800
Speaker 4: It's good you got two gloves.

1414
01:02:28,560 --> 01:02:32,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, trying to just wash the one hand. Well, you know, Beau,

1415
01:02:32,160 --> 01:02:32,800
Speaker 2: then you then.

1416
01:02:32,720 --> 01:02:34,480
Speaker 5: You sort of use them for then when you're cleaning

1417
01:02:34,520 --> 01:02:36,640
Speaker 5: like the bathrooms and things like that, so you know,

1418
01:02:36,680 --> 01:02:38,120
Speaker 5: you still use the gloves A you don't want all

1419
01:02:38,160 --> 01:02:39,320
Speaker 5: those chemicals on the chants.

1420
01:02:40,720 --> 01:02:44,000
Speaker 2: I love it. Alright, let's get to tweet of the night.

1441
01:03:38,000 --> 01:03:39,560
Speaker 4: In the lane.

1442
01:03:40,200 --> 01:03:42,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was reality by the end of the night.

1443
01:03:42,960 --> 01:03:44,520
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, the boys were tired.

1444
01:03:44,640 --> 01:03:49,400
Speaker 1: Boys were tired. A couple of things surprised me last night. Yeah,

1445
01:03:49,600 --> 01:03:52,080
Speaker 1: Lee and Task showing up were in the same headwear. Yeah,

1446
01:03:52,840 --> 01:03:53,560
Speaker 1: I was a shocker.

1447
01:03:53,600 --> 01:03:55,720
Speaker 2: Should have led the show with this. This is more

1448
01:03:55,720 --> 01:03:56,280
Speaker 2: important than.

1449
01:03:56,840 --> 01:03:58,600
Speaker 4: You were at the same Amazon reviews.

1450
01:03:59,040 --> 01:04:06,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that was a surprise to see you both

1451
01:04:06,320 --> 01:04:09,440
Speaker 1: rock and like, I don't know, it's it's almost like

1452
01:04:09,480 --> 01:04:10,360
Speaker 1: a tennis headband.

1453
01:04:10,400 --> 01:04:14,400
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, Well they're versatile. You can make them thinner,

1454
01:04:15,200 --> 01:04:16,080
Speaker 3: you can spread them out.

1455
01:04:16,160 --> 01:04:18,040
Speaker 1: I actually thought you both looked cool, so perhaps to

1456
01:04:18,040 --> 01:04:20,760
Speaker 1: you on both of that. I also say surprising, uh Lee,

1457
01:04:21,720 --> 01:04:23,880
Speaker 1: very chatty on the court. Last name, this man was

1458
01:04:23,880 --> 01:04:25,160
Speaker 1: calling out defensive coverage.

1459
01:04:25,480 --> 01:04:26,080
Speaker 5: You know what?

1460
01:04:26,280 --> 01:04:28,880
Speaker 2: Do you know why he didn't have his mouth guarding.

1461
01:04:29,560 --> 01:04:31,680
Speaker 2: That's why he doesn't say people and he's got the

1462
01:04:31,680 --> 01:04:32,560
Speaker 2: mouth guading because.

1463
01:04:32,320 --> 01:04:34,360
Speaker 5: You can't well. And I did try to. I had

1464
01:04:34,360 --> 01:04:36,720
Speaker 5: the mouthguard, but I haven't used it for so long.

1465
01:04:37,080 --> 01:04:39,040
Speaker 5: I put it in and it was a little bit wonky.

1466
01:04:39,480 --> 01:04:42,000
Speaker 5: I put it back in the boiling water last night

1467
01:04:42,040 --> 01:04:43,680
Speaker 5: to try to like loosen it up, put it back

1468
01:04:43,680 --> 01:04:45,080
Speaker 5: and couldn't quite get the fix right.

1469
01:04:45,360 --> 01:04:46,760
Speaker 2: So do you use her rubber gloves?

1470
01:04:47,240 --> 01:04:49,439
Speaker 5: But I went to Amazon to look, so I've ordered

1471
01:04:49,480 --> 01:04:54,840
Speaker 5: a new one. Defensive should be there from for next

1472
01:04:54,840 --> 01:04:57,560
Speaker 5: Wednesday night. But wasn't it just great to be out

1473
01:04:57,560 --> 01:04:59,680
Speaker 5: on the court. But I think that was also part

1474
01:04:59,680 --> 01:05:02,360
Speaker 5: of it. It was an honor to switch everything.

1475
01:05:03,560 --> 01:05:03,840
Speaker 1: That's all.

1476
01:05:03,880 --> 01:05:06,720
Speaker 2: I kept saying, switch, switch, I got you, I got you.

1477
01:05:06,720 --> 01:05:09,480
Speaker 3: He was even calling offensive calls though Trey was kind

1478
01:05:09,480 --> 01:05:11,880
Speaker 3: of trapped in the corner and I was not really

1479
01:05:11,880 --> 01:05:12,520
Speaker 3: coming to the ball.

1480
01:05:12,560 --> 01:05:14,640
Speaker 4: He's like testing, go get it, go get it, go

1481
01:05:14,720 --> 01:05:15,080
Speaker 4: get that.

1482
01:05:15,640 --> 01:05:19,120
Speaker 2: And and my favorite part of the day, stealing rebounds

1483
01:05:19,160 --> 01:05:19,560
Speaker 2: from Tree.

1484
01:05:19,920 --> 01:05:20,400
Speaker 1: Believable.

1485
01:05:20,640 --> 01:05:23,080
Speaker 2: You were Russell Westbrook on the boards last night, taking

1486
01:05:23,120 --> 01:05:24,960
Speaker 2: away Steven Adams board. I loved it.

1487
01:05:25,200 --> 01:05:27,280
Speaker 5: I have to say it. Having not played, you miss

1488
01:05:27,320 --> 01:05:28,800
Speaker 5: it so much. Like give me that. I need to

1489
01:05:28,840 --> 01:05:29,520
Speaker 5: feel that leather.

1490
01:05:29,720 --> 01:05:31,680
Speaker 2: You know, you played the best out of the foremost.

1491
01:05:31,720 --> 01:05:32,680
Speaker 2: I would say, you jump.

1492
01:05:33,240 --> 01:05:35,520
Speaker 5: I thought, you know, if we were playing again tonight,

1493
01:05:35,560 --> 01:05:38,560
Speaker 5: though I would have been on the injury reporters. Questionable

1494
01:05:38,760 --> 01:05:40,840
Speaker 5: hydration issues up this morning.

1495
01:05:40,560 --> 01:05:43,120
Speaker 2: A little little dry, a little dry, and.

1496
01:05:43,160 --> 01:05:46,920
Speaker 5: The old bit of a headache, really and I was

1497
01:05:46,960 --> 01:05:47,640
Speaker 5: pounding water.

1498
01:05:47,880 --> 01:05:48,840
Speaker 2: But work up.

1499
01:05:48,840 --> 01:05:50,640
Speaker 5: This one is like wow, this is like a hangover

1500
01:05:50,720 --> 01:05:53,400
Speaker 5: without without drinking out the hoops.

1501
01:05:53,400 --> 01:05:57,360
Speaker 1: Hang on, yeah, give you some athletic agreeds. My favorite

1502
01:05:57,600 --> 01:05:58,760
Speaker 1: comment of the night.

1503
01:05:59,360 --> 01:05:59,760
Speaker 5: We ran.

1504
01:06:00,320 --> 01:06:02,240
Speaker 1: We ran some sort of fast break. I just ran

1505
01:06:02,280 --> 01:06:04,320
Speaker 1: to the corner because it was not involving me at all.

1506
01:06:04,440 --> 01:06:06,680
Speaker 1: I was like, I'm not this play is not for me.

1507
01:06:07,360 --> 01:06:10,840
Speaker 1: We scored. I think it was his skates jogging up

1508
01:06:10,880 --> 01:06:19,800
Speaker 1: the court. Nice spacing. I didn't get away.

1509
01:06:20,800 --> 01:06:22,040
Speaker 2: Let the guys run the lanes.

1510
01:06:22,560 --> 01:06:25,080
Speaker 1: That's some good chemistry right there. All right, I'll just

1511
01:06:25,120 --> 01:06:28,360
Speaker 1: trop down to the corner. Yeah, I'm helping out you guys.

1512
01:06:30,920 --> 01:06:31,160
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1513
01:06:31,360 --> 01:06:33,440
Speaker 2: I thought we actually when we played together the bow

1514
01:06:33,640 --> 01:06:35,560
Speaker 2: was it being around it? I can't. We lost the

1515
01:06:35,600 --> 01:06:39,320
Speaker 2: first game. I got three splashed in my eye by Santos.

1516
01:06:39,320 --> 01:06:43,840
Speaker 3: He was we played them the three ball game.

1517
01:06:44,520 --> 01:06:48,520
Speaker 2: It's running the game because we don't shoot anything. Oh

1518
01:06:48,760 --> 01:06:50,640
Speaker 2: great to be back out there. Yeah, we'll see you

01:06:51,200 --> 01:06:51,919
Speaker 5: Yeah, I hope.

1521
01:06:51,960 --> 01:06:53,200
Speaker 2: So yeah, okay, yeah good.

1522
01:06:53,880 --> 01:06:55,920
Speaker 5: There was one time I did have a reband and

1523
01:06:55,920 --> 01:07:00,920
Speaker 5: you're like, come on, let's go, let me go rebound.

1524
01:07:02,680 --> 01:07:03,200
Speaker 4: The advance.

1525
01:07:03,280 --> 01:07:05,120
Speaker 2: I know you are ahead of you.

1526
01:07:05,200 --> 01:07:05,640
Speaker 4: Let's go.

1527
01:07:05,760 --> 01:07:08,120
Speaker 2: It's not you know, you can't. I can't trigger that

1528
01:07:08,200 --> 01:07:09,240
Speaker 2: fast break like you used to.

1529
01:07:09,280 --> 01:07:11,440
Speaker 5: You know, you just want to keep possession of the Bulls.

1530
01:07:11,560 --> 01:07:12,760
Speaker 4: There's two different styles.

1531
01:07:12,760 --> 01:07:15,280
Speaker 3: There was the fast break and then there was the

1532
01:07:15,440 --> 01:07:18,000
Speaker 3: Calvin Actually who would get a rebound and say all right,

1533
01:07:18,040 --> 01:07:19,760
Speaker 3: we're gonna check up he just did.

1534
01:07:20,400 --> 01:07:22,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah I would not Yeah, drib.

1535
01:07:23,720 --> 01:07:26,320
Speaker 2: I love when that starts happening, when people are like, no, no,

1536
01:07:26,360 --> 01:07:28,400
Speaker 2: we're not bringing that, We'll just check it up up there.

1537
01:07:30,440 --> 01:07:31,840
Speaker 2: You didn't have a lot of subs last night, so

1538
01:07:31,840 --> 01:07:34,880
Speaker 2: we're getting pretty pretty quickly. So gonna be out there, okay.

1539
01:07:34,920 --> 01:07:37,400
Speaker 2: Pick a results from last night Jazz Lakers game. Utah

1540
01:07:37,520 --> 01:07:38,840
Speaker 2: was favored by four and a half. We had a

1541
01:07:38,840 --> 01:07:40,720
Speaker 2: couple of us, Task and I going with the Lakers,

1542
01:07:40,760 --> 01:07:42,880
Speaker 2: and of course they hit the money line for us,

1543
01:07:43,320 --> 01:07:45,400
Speaker 2: so Task gets a much needed win. He's four and eight.

1544
01:07:45,680 --> 01:07:48,080
Speaker 2: I improved to nine and three. Lee and Trey had

1545
01:07:48,080 --> 01:07:49,800
Speaker 2: the Jazz. So Lee's eight and four and Trace five

1546
01:07:49,800 --> 01:07:52,920
Speaker 2: and seven. So Task one game back here. This is crazy.

1547
01:07:52,960 --> 01:07:56,480
Speaker 2: After your brutal starts right February, you're within striking distance

1548
01:07:56,480 --> 01:07:56,800
Speaker 2: of this game.

1549
01:07:56,800 --> 01:07:57,840

1550
01:07:58,000 --> 01:08:01,440

1552
01:08:04,480 --> 01:08:07,160
