The 54 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 2: blowout there, MAV's taking care of the jazz, and then 55 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:09,079 Speaker 2: we got some more awards news. But the Celtics complete 56 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 2: the four game sweep of the Nets one sixteen one twelve. 57 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,639 Speaker 2: Of all the series, this is the one that ends 58 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 2: in a sweep. Amazing. 59 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:19,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, very very weird. 60 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 4: Ever since Marlin won me Lollapalooza tickets at Game three 61 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 4: of the Bulls series, I've had that Green Day song 62 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 4: in my head. Oh yeah, it's something I'm predicted. But 63 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 4: then the end is right. I hope you had the 64 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 4: time of your life. 65 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 5: I don't think the Nets had the time of their life. 66 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 4: No, but good riddance to Brooklyn because they are swizz 67 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 4: apped out of these playoffs. This one did turn into 68 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 4: a real game of basketball late, I thought in the 69 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 4: fourth quarter, Nets finally showed a little bit of desperation 70 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 4: and Kevin Durant really broke through. Scored thirty nine points, 71 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 4: seven rebounds, nine assists for KD. Finally looked like Katie 72 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 4: took a whole bunch of shots, but you'd like to 73 00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 4: see him go out like that, being the KD that 74 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 4: we're used to score twelve and the fourth and it 75 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 4: really did seem like the Nets might have had a 76 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 4: shot after Jason Tatum filed out with about three minutes left, 77 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 4: a dubious. 78 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 2: Callous call, a base out call. Someone fell down, that's right, 79 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 2: draw it. That was brutal. 80 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,359 Speaker 5: That's bad. That was That was a weak one. That 81 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 5: was a weak one. 82 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 4: But Tatum was great though he did follow out and 83 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 4: it didn't really matter. I mean it kind of matter, 84 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 4: but the Celtics recovered and kept making plays. Nets cut 85 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 4: this game to a one point lead for Boston with 86 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 4: about a minute left. Jalen Brown gets to the rim 87 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 4: scores a layup. Twenty two seconds left, Katie misses a 88 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 4: free throw that was weird to see would have cut 89 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 4: the Boston lead to one again, so Celtics up to 90 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 4: After the miss free throw, Celtics run the ball down. 91 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 5: The court, get a layup at the rim. 92 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 4: Marcus Smart misses it, but Al Horford's the first guy 93 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,559 Speaker 4: back right there for the tip in to ice. It 94 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 4: really emblematic of the game and the series. The Celtics 95 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 4: had more hustle, they had more grit, and everybody's on 96 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 4: the same page. They're like, that's probably not a shot 97 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 4: you're expecting Marcus Smart to take, but the advantage was there, 98 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 4: so he took it. He was quicker to make a 99 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,280 Speaker 4: decision to make a play and then Al Horford is 100 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 4: right there to back him up. So good performances by 101 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:11,159 Speaker 4: the stars from the Celtics. It was nice to see 102 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:13,479 Speaker 4: Kevin Durant have a good game in this one. Doesn't 103 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 4: feel like it's his fault in this series, but not 104 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 4: enough from the nets. So weird that this is the 105 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 4: only series that's done so far. Right now, since this 106 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 4: looked like Hugh, this is basically a finals preview. 107 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,600 Speaker 2: Nope, if you had lined up all eight first round 108 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,479 Speaker 2: series and said put him in the order you think 109 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 2: of most likely to least likely this is at the end, 110 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 2: it would have been. I mean, you had the Celtics 111 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,920 Speaker 2: winning in five. Yeah, so kudos to you for obviously 112 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:39,839 Speaker 2: calling the correct team winning, but a lot of people 113 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 2: thought it would be. I mean, there were some competitive games, 114 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 2: and you know, if the nets escaped with Game one 115 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 2: in Boston, then who knows where it goes from there. 116 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 2: But they just looked like the much better team just 117 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,480 Speaker 2: obviously they're starters, and then the guys coming and contributing 118 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 2: off the benches. 119 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 6: I just felt that, and you saw the last night. 120 00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:59,039 Speaker 6: It took such effort for Kevin Durant just to get 121 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 6: those shots off. Every switch that came was like just 122 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 6: Grant Williams defenditive, well, Tatum was Jalen Brown, Howford came 123 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 6: out and you talk about that play at the end 124 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,479 Speaker 6: there with our Horford. Look, who's the oldest man on 125 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 6: the court is basically down the other end hustling, you know, 126 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 6: close out game. They had the safety net of going 127 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 6: home for Game five. Alfadd's like, nah, I want to 128 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 6: close this out right now. And just before the Kevin Durant, 129 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 6: miss Marcus Smart made what I thought originally was a 130 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 6: dumb play, going for an unnecessary steal turns out to 131 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 6: be actually the right play because he fouled Kevin Durant, 132 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 6: preventing him from getting a three, and Kevin Durant missed 133 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,280 Speaker 6: the free throw, so worked out. Okay, not sure if 134 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 6: he planted it like that, but fine, who cares. It happened. 135 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 6: But ultimately, I think this is what it comes down 136 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,599 Speaker 6: to in this series is this was a team, the 137 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,599 Speaker 6: Boston Celtics, that were all on the same page. Let's 138 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 6: be ruthless, let's get this series done as quickly as 139 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 6: we can, whereas the Nets was kind of like hero ball, 140 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 6: your way to victory if you can, and that's kind 141 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 6: of what nearly happened in Game one. Kyrie Irving was 142 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 6: brilliant in the fourth quarter of Game one. That's basically 143 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 6: the last time we saw him in the series. 144 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:02,280 Speaker 2: Any other quiet game here, Yeah, points, fine, six or 145 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:03,600 Speaker 2: thirteen shooting. 146 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,719 Speaker 6: But he didn't have the juice. I didn't think where 147 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 6: he was where he did in that fourth quarter where 148 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 6: he was motivated, he was determined, and this one was 149 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 6: more like, oh, get mine when they come my way, 150 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 6: but I'm not really going out there to do it. 151 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 6: And so ultimately this was Yeah, the Nets had a 152 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 6: chance with them the series. They weren't gonna win it, 153 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 6: I don't think under any circumstances. But the Boston Celtics 154 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 6: showed why they are a legit contender right now. They 155 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 6: defend incredibly well offensively, that ball moves around, and that 156 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 6: seems to be a different guy every night, sort of 157 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 6: stepping up Smart. I mean, twenty points, eleven assists last night, 158 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 6: you know, fantastic. 159 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 2: And the season really changed when he became like their 160 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 2: their four guy. 161 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 6: And I think I remember specifically at the trade dead 162 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 6: Lights say they need a point guard. They can't rub 163 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 6: him Smart. 164 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 5: So get him out of here. Had the problem. 165 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 6: I think they were below five or they were very 166 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 6: close to five hundred that point. It's like shrewd is 167 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 6: not working. You need someone who can set up the offense. Well, okay, 168 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 6: they proved us me stupid and got it right, but 169 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 6: I just feel that they really, you know, Howford was incredible. 170 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 6: I thought in this series. Tatum again, twenty nine points 171 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 6: last night and only sixteen field goals. He actually you know, 172 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 6: six turnovers. A little bit sloppy for lift for him 173 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 6: last night, but ultimately he was so good in this 174 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 6: series at both ends of the floor, so Celtics get 175 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 6: a good rest here before they faced the Bucks in 176 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 6: a couple of nights. 177 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, what did you think of the postgame press conferences here? 178 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 2: Especially coming from the net side of things, Katie and 179 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 2: Kyrie's specially well. 180 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 4: I mean, it seems like this is going to be 181 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 4: a tough fix skeets. But Kyrie Irving is up for 182 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 4: the job because not only is he a player, he's 183 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 4: also a coach. He's also apparently now a GM and 184 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 4: perhaps a part owner of the Brooklyn Nets. 185 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:39,680 Speaker 5: But I don't know. 186 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:41,319 Speaker 4: It seems to me that this team is going to 187 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,559 Speaker 4: be the same team coming back next year. Theoretically Ben 188 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,080 Speaker 4: Simmons will play, but I guess we shall see. He 189 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 4: wasn't even in the building last night. 190 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:50,839 Speaker 5: It wasn't even in the building last night. Come on, man, 191 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 5: that's honestly ridiculous. 192 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 4: But Katie back, Kyrie back, Ben Simmons back, Joe Harris, 193 00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 4: Joe Harris. 194 00:08:58,200 --> 00:08:58,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, that was. 195 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 4: Honestly a huge injury and that just things. But if 196 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 4: he's healthy, that helps. If Simmons can do anything, that helps. 197 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 4: But uh, I don't know this this is a team 198 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 4: that wants to go home. It definitely felt like they 199 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 4: were done with it. I saw Kevin Durant today on 200 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 4: Instagram posted all of the Rockets, Hakeem Charles and Scottie 201 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:19,599 Speaker 4: Pippen when they had their super team there with the 202 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 4: Rockets that did not go well. So they seem to 203 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,320 Speaker 4: be pretty upset with the way things went down and 204 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 4: just I mean, a disaster season. And we talked about 205 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 4: them all the time, and I talked myself into them 206 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 4: actually being able to show up in the playoffs. But 207 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 4: you have to care at least one percent in the 208 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 4: regular season, it seems. 209 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:37,959 Speaker 6: Yeah, and that does carry over. I mean, there are 210 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 6: things that happen in the regular season where you know, 211 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 6: experienced teams can say, listen, we just need to get healthy. 212 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 6: We need to get to the playoffs. Doesn't matter about 213 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 6: home court, road courde or anything like that. But the 214 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 6: Nets had way more issues than that, and I think 215 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 6: that's what you saw. It's the craziest thing to me 216 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 6: is though you go back to that game in Philadelphia 217 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 6: on March tam we were supposed to go to it, 218 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 6: we didn't end up. 219 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 2: Going, oh right, and then the game where we thought, 220 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 2: yeah Simmons, he was supposed to be back and forth 221 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 2: and the Nets blew out the Sixers, blew them out 222 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 2: by thirty points, and I was like. 223 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,319 Speaker 6: Wow, when the Nets get it together, man, Yeah, and 224 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 6: now the Sixers are still alive and the Nets have 225 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 6: gone home. Well they are they are, I mean they're 226 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 6: They're not in a position they want to be for sure, 227 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 6: but yeah, I mean, I'm just super impressed Emao Doka 228 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 6: as well. I think he deserves so much credit here 229 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:29,440 Speaker 6: because a first year coach, things aren't going very well 230 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 6: for him at the start the first forty games or so, 231 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 6: and he's able to really implement his strategy I think 232 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 6: going down the stretch here and into the playoffs, and. 233 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 2: So you believe the Boston Celtics are without a doubt 234 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 2: legit title contender. Oh yeah, get there and not all 235 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:43,679 Speaker 2: that they can win this. 236 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 6: I can see if things for right, if they stay 237 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 6: healthy and Robert Williams is back, I can see them 238 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,319 Speaker 6: beating every other team. Now that doesn't mean they will, 239 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 6: but I can see it happening. I mean, the Bucks 240 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 6: and We'll get into a little bit here, but that's 241 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 6: going to be a massive challenge for both of those teams, 242 00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 6: especially if Middleton is out. But I love these and 243 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 6: I love the variety on offense. Yeah, they've got everything, 244 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 6: and then. 245 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 2: They have the variety you want of, Hey, we have 246 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 2: a guy that you can give the ball to and 247 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:11,560 Speaker 2: get us a bucket, get to the line whatever. In tailor, 248 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 2: they basically have two. I mean, I think Jayalen Brown 249 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 2: can be asked to do that a lot, and he 250 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 2: proved in this series the time and time again he 251 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 2: had timely buckets all the time. But then you're right, 252 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 2: it's all these other guys contributing, and you said, like, 253 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 2: you know, even you know, Derek White had a decent 254 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,560 Speaker 2: little game last night, was aggressive shooting the ball. We've 255 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,439 Speaker 2: had the Pritchard sort of moments. Grant Williams was awesome. 256 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,559 Speaker 2: Those three pointed ye were so Yeah, there's that collective. 257 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:35,440 Speaker 2: It's like the perfect we have an elite defense, the 258 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:37,720 Speaker 2: ball is shared, that rock is moving. But then we 259 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 2: also have the superstars, which you know you generally do 260 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 2: need to win the odd game or two in a 261 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 2: playoff series. So I assume you're all in on the 262 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 2: Celtics chances. 263 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 5: To do this too. 264 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 4: This is going to be an awesome series if the 265 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 4: Bucks are able to withstand the balls come back here. 266 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 4: I mean, it feels like a championship matchup. Once again, 267 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:57,440 Speaker 4: that's what I thought this was going to be with 268 00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 4: the Nets. So I guess we'll see how it actually 269 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 4: plays out. But great performances from all the role guys 270 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 4: on the Celtics. Three threes for Marcus Smart, three threes 271 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:06,560 Speaker 4: for Al Horford, and then four like you're saying for 272 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:08,960 Speaker 4: Grant Williams. If they're knocking down shots, you know they're 273 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 4: playing defense to bring the additional production on the offensive end. 274 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 4: That's huge because, like you're saying, when it comes down 275 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 4: to it, when they really need a bucket, they can 276 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,200 Speaker 4: go to Tatum, and if he's for whatever reason having 277 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 4: a tough game or fouled out, they can go to 278 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 4: Jalen Brown. Handles not quite as tight as Tatum's, but 279 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 4: still a solid creator as well. 280 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 5: So they got they got the look of. 281 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 4: A team that has an identity on both ends of 282 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 4: the court, and that's huge. Not a lot of teams 283 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 4: have that, even in the playoffs. So yeah, the Celtics, 284 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 4: they look super impressive. They've been the best team in 285 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 4: the Eastern Conference so far in the playoffs. 286 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 6: And I think the trust fact on offense is huge 287 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 6: because you saw like Seth Curry was maybe the second 288 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 6: best player there last not a couple of home run 289 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 6: threes to keep Brooklyn in it, But when Boston needed 290 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 6: a basket, they would just move the ball round pretty comfortably. 291 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,080 Speaker 6: Was like Titum, bounce it inside to Smart, find Grant 292 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 6: Williams in the court. He knew exactly where he was 293 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,440 Speaker 6: going to be. That sort of chemistry on offense is 294 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:01,719 Speaker 6: what Brooklyn and did not have, and a lot of 295 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 6: teams don't have it quite the white Boston doesn't because Titum, Brown, 296 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 6: Smart Holford as well as his second go around and Toss. 297 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 6: These guys have been there together and they do understand. 298 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,200 Speaker 6: And even someone like Daniel Toss a little bit frustrating 299 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:15,440 Speaker 6: at times, you know, not the best hands in the world, 300 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 6: but he understands he'll get his opportunity, he'll get a roll. 301 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 6: He can hit the three, so there's gonna be a 302 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 6: role for him, even if the minutes are reduced. So 303 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:23,520 Speaker 6: Boston's looking incredible. 304 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 2: So I was doing a little quick brainstorming Sessh this morning. 305 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:28,560 Speaker 2: I thought we could talk this out on the fly. 306 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 2: Most surprising sweeps over let's call the last decade, over 307 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 2: the last ten years, so this would be on that list. 308 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,840 Speaker 2: I mean, I know it's a two to seven matchup. 309 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,319 Speaker 2: Seventh seed isn't generally beating the second seed. I get 310 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 2: all that, but this is, you know, a team with 311 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 2: Katie and Kyrie playing, and then there was the whole 312 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 2: Ben Simmons thing and like, obviously a good team, but 313 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,679 Speaker 2: the Celtics sweep them, so surprising. A couple other that was, 314 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 2: you know, coming to mind against was a sort of 315 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 2: a quick look, I'm sure I'm gonna miss a few 316 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 2: I had on my list. The Buck's actually sweeping the 317 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 2: Heat last year. Yeah, twenty one, first round, just because 318 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 2: of like, you know, it was a decent team. Yeah, 319 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 2: it wasn't. Definitely again, the sweep is the surprising part 320 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 2: of this, maybe not winning the series had that had 321 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 2: the Warrior sweeping the Blazers in the Western Conference finals. 322 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:13,959 Speaker 2: I sort of think anytime you get to a conference 323 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:17,439 Speaker 2: finals and the sweep happens, you know, outside of like 324 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 2: an injury here or there, stuff like that. But that 325 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 2: one came to mind. I put down the Cavs sweeping 326 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 2: the Raptors in the second round in twenty eighteen, now 327 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 2: because that was, yeah, for the second consecutive year that 328 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 2: the Raptors got swept. I believe that's the JV missing 329 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 2: Bunnies and and all that. So look, the Raptors being 330 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:36,520 Speaker 2: swept by a lebron team. You could say, is that 331 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 2: really all that surprising? Maybe in back to back seasons though, 332 00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 2: when the Raptors had a pretty good seed that year, 333 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 2: Pelicans sweeping the Blazers in the first round of also 334 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 2: twenty eighteen had that on the list that was that 335 00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 2: was a lower I think that was a six seeded 336 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 2: beating the Blazers at the third seed, and then a 337 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 2: couple others going back a little further, had the Warrior 338 00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 2: sweeping the Spurs in the Western Conference Finals in twenty seventeen. 339 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:04,240 Speaker 2: That's the Zaza under Kwy. You know what happens if 340 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 2: he doesn't get injured, So that one changed obviously on 341 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 2: the dime when he gets injured. Qui goes out the 342 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 2: Calves sweeping the Hawks in the Eastern Conference Finals twenty fifteen. 343 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 2: But that's a sixty win Hawks team. 344 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 6: But they had as well. 345 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that's that's yeah. 346 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 6: Again, to not even win a game, No, no, no, 347 00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 6: I agree, that was a surprising sweep for sure. 348 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, and then three more I put the Wizard sweeping 349 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 2: the Raptors in the first round in the twenty fifteen playoffs. 350 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:32,240 Speaker 2: I flew home for that game one that the Raptors 351 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 2: of course lost. And then that was the Paul Pierce series, right, 352 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 2: I think. 353 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 6: I believe, Yeah, it was the Bradley. 354 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 2: Yep. And then I had the Spurs sweeping the Grizzlies 355 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 2: again in the Western Conference Finals in twenty thirteen. 356 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 6: Yes, I remember that. 357 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. And then finally this one definitely would have high 358 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 2: on the list, the MAVs sweeping the Lakers in the 359 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 2: second round twenty eleven. I think if I have that right, 360 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 2: that's the Binum body checker bore and that was that 361 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,240 Speaker 2: was a two three matchups those of the Lakers, I 362 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 2: think the number two seats. So you know, again, I 363 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,080 Speaker 2: did that fairly quickly this morning. I'm sure I'm missing 364 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 2: some let me know in the stream team or in 365 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 2: the comments below. I was gonna make that its whole segment, 366 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 2: but I'm glad I just did it that way. 367 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 5: You know, that's a solid clip. 368 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 4: Honestly, let's circle back on that in the Social Brainstorms 369 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 4: channel afterwards. You'll be seeing a no dunst nibble later. 370 00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 4: This reminds me of the twenty eleventh sweep. There you 371 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 4: go MAVs versus the Lakers, because it seemed like it 372 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 4: was going to be a pretty fair fight all things considered, 373 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 4: and it definitely was not. And the next season, the 374 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,360 Speaker 4: Lakers didn't have the same coach, which could also be 375 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 4: the case for the Nets coming back next year because 376 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 4: at the very least, it feels like Steve Nash will 377 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,600 Speaker 4: be the scapegoat here because the players are probably coming back, 378 00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 4: to be quite honest, and they never really looked organized 379 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 4: and on the same page for the entire year, and 380 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 4: unfortunately that kind of comes down on the coach. Kind 381 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 4: of the easiest thing to change. So I would not 382 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 4: be surprised if Steve Nash is talking soccer. 383 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 6: Not too long. You want a little fun trivia, yes, yeah, yeah. 384 00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 6: You know, there's only one team in NBA history that's 385 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 6: been involved in four sweeps in the same postseason and 386 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 6: didn't win the championship. You know who that was. 387 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:08,680 Speaker 2: They were involved at the Pistons. 388 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 6: Right, yeah, they they were involved. Yeah yeah, so. 389 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,199 Speaker 2: They got they swept three series and then got swept. 390 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:19,200 Speaker 6: That's the Lakers who won who swept got swept by 391 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 6: the Piston. The Pistons lost more games than the league. 392 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,880 Speaker 6: Well they lost two games on the way to the finals, 393 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:27,119 Speaker 6: but then swept the Lakers. 394 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:28,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, that little piece of te Yeah. 395 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 6: See that's that goes along with my minute bowl trivia. 396 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:36,200 Speaker 2: That's the next one, Old Dad comes up that pub trivia. 397 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 2: Going out of any other thoughts, guys on the Celtics, 398 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:40,159 Speaker 2: We're going to be talking about the Beantown Boys a 399 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 2: lot here as we get the second round series with 400 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 2: the Bucks. But yeah, do you want to see anything 401 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 2: more about the Brooklyn Nets? Happy? The sweet has happened? 402 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 6: I mean, look, look, I like Kevin Durant as a player, 403 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,119 Speaker 6: you know, I think he is. He's top fifteen of 404 00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 6: all time in my opinion. Sure so, I don't you know? 405 00:17:58,080 --> 00:17:59,639 Speaker 6: And we knew that one of these good teams was 406 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 6: going to be out in the first round. But to 407 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,720 Speaker 6: see him get sort of embarrassed like that is not satisfying. 408 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:08,119 Speaker 2: I mean, do you think it has to what's the 409 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 2: reason why he sort of flamed out here in the 410 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:12,680 Speaker 2: first round? Is it because of the defense and teetum 411 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 2: going and to maybe another level defensively at least is 412 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 2: the age catching up. I think so for maybe the 413 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 2: warkload that he was asked to do. 414 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 6: Ye he was playing so many minutes, and earlier in 415 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:25,640 Speaker 6: this season he said he doesn't care how many minutes 416 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:27,960 Speaker 6: he'll play, He'll play him. But I actually think that's 417 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 6: part of the reason why he got injured. He came 418 00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 6: back late into the season, and then the defense on 419 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 6: that I mean for a guy again, he's only thirty three, 420 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 6: but he's got a ton of miles of his legs 421 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,639 Speaker 6: and that defense was just like suffocating for him, you know. 422 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 2: And has there been a passing of the torch? 423 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 6: Well, I'll tell you why, Jason Tatum. And I know 424 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:46,880 Speaker 6: he's been doing it a lot this season and even 425 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 6: last season. But when he decides he's getting a bucket 426 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:51,400 Speaker 6: or a shot off, he's at that sort of Kevin 427 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:54,640 Speaker 6: Durant level. I don't really care who's defending me. I'm 428 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:55,679 Speaker 6: getting to my spot. 429 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 2: I again and just continually impressed with Now he's out 430 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 2: of defense to the mix. Oh yeah, Like, if he's 431 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 2: going to play like that on that end of the floor, 432 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:05,680 Speaker 2: then you're gonna be in a lot of MVP conversations. 433 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:06,680 Speaker 2: He is already there because. 434 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 6: Of his offensive on top of that. Yeah, yeah, he 435 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:12,639 Speaker 6: had some incredible series like that. So yeah, he's he 436 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:14,919 Speaker 6: is definitely at that super elite level already. 437 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 2: Okay, well let's move to the Raptors. Shall we give 438 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 2: me some Raptor news? 439 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:19,480 Speaker 5: Oh? 440 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:23,920 Speaker 2: Gladly, Raptors beat the Sixers one oh three p. Eighty eight, 441 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 2: went into Philly, beat their ass, had the home crowd 442 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:30,879 Speaker 2: booing them, believing headed to beat the traffic with like 443 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,520 Speaker 2: six minutes to go, force a game six at home. 444 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 2: Obviously started this series down three zero. They've won the 445 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,440 Speaker 2: last two games and they're going to win in seven, 446 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 2: it is known. But yeah, this was another I mean, 447 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,400 Speaker 2: this was an all around great game for the Raptors 448 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 2: defensively especially, And then we talked about it here with Tass. 449 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:52,320 Speaker 2: You know, he was concerned with van Vliet not playing. 450 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 2: I said, I don't know, I'm saying right now, VanVleet 451 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,000 Speaker 2: was getting cooked. This is the thing. He couldn't stand 452 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,440 Speaker 2: in front of Maxi. He's a great defender, but because 453 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:02,159 Speaker 2: of the injury, I think because the speed of Maxi, 454 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:04,399 Speaker 2: he was struggling on that and wasn't give him a 455 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 2: whole lot offensively. So the idea of like Spicy Pee 456 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 2: as the point guard, let him operate, and then the 457 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,480 Speaker 2: defense is like all these long guys, all this switchability, 458 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 2: and it worked at least for game five here and 459 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:18,400 Speaker 2: Siakam again for the second consecutive game, Tray I thought 460 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 2: was the best player on the floor. Uh and he 461 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 2: had fifteen of his twenty three and the second half 462 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 2: just three assist shive of triple double and great defense too, 463 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,240 Speaker 2: of course, to get the to get the Raptors they're 464 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:30,639 Speaker 2: back in this series, which is crazy. I mean, you know, 465 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 2: who knows they got to win in game six, but 466 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 2: oh my god, oh my god, it. 467 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 4: Feels like one of people would pick the Raptors they'll 468 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:40,120 Speaker 4: win this series in seven right now, because nobody has 469 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:41,920 Speaker 4: confidence that the Sixers are going to show. 470 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 5: Up in game six. 471 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 4: Maybe Fred van Bleet being out was like the best 472 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 4: thing to happen to the Raptors telling you because the 473 00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 4: Sixers did not come out with the necessary fire to 474 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:52,360 Speaker 4: win this game. The spicy Pe the peace stands for Pascal, 475 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:54,360 Speaker 4: could it stand for passing seven assists? 476 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:55,120 Speaker 5: That's not bad. 477 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 4: The Raptors finished with twenty four assists on forty two. 478 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:02,119 Speaker 4: Makes the ball is moving, yep. And credibly well, at 479 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 4: least on that end of the court. The Sixers, though, 480 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 4: just like, did they just think the Raptors were gonna 481 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 4: give up? 482 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 5: Yep? Did they thought? 483 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 4: After two wins, they thought this one is done. We'll 484 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:17,400 Speaker 4: go win one here in Toronto. We'll let them have one. 485 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:19,200 Speaker 4: There's no way they're gonna do it again. 486 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:19,880 Speaker 5: In game five. 487 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,920 Speaker 4: Whoops, this is the Raptors we're talking about here. Embiid 488 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 4: was getting cooked by Precious with Chua dribble drives. Yeah, like, 489 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 4: I've never seen pressures that Chua make that many plays 490 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 4: off the dribble and it would be like a crossover. 491 00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,119 Speaker 5: And Embiid is nowhere near him. I don't know. 492 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:37,200 Speaker 4: I'm like, if Embiid is this tired in game five 493 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,680 Speaker 4: of the first round after talking all year about how 494 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 4: he played so many games this season, come on, man, 495 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 4: that's at least kudos to him for admitting that he 496 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:50,120 Speaker 4: didn't have the energy necessary for this game for them 497 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:51,479 Speaker 4: to close out the series. 498 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:53,720 Speaker 5: But too much blame game for the Sixers. 499 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 4: It's like, as soon as the game is over, everybody 500 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,879 Speaker 4: wants to blame everybody else. Embid blamed Harden obviously for 501 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,919 Speaker 4: not shooting Harden was brutal. He blamed Doc for not 502 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:03,480 Speaker 4: telling James Harden to shoot, and then he blamed his 503 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 4: teammates for passing the ball around too much. 504 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 5: What do you want? 505 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:09,240 Speaker 4: You want to take every single shot? Play some defense, honestly, 506 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 4: play some defense if you think you're a defensive player 507 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 4: of the Year. It's never been in Bead's fault anytime 508 00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 4: the Sixers lose, and he definitely didn't think it was yesterday. 509 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:19,360 Speaker 4: But to me, you take your cues from your two 510 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,159 Speaker 4: best players. Embiid was kind of a no show in 511 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 4: this game. And then Harden was definitely a no show. 512 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 2: Oh my god, the rap I mean, yeah, is it 513 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 2: because he's gassed? He should have looked like it in 514 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 2: the second half. How much has to do with the 515 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:31,679 Speaker 2: thumb injury too? With Embiid, I don't really like defensively, 516 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:34,680 Speaker 2: I don't think your thumb hurting would prevent your legs 517 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 2: from moving and shuffling on defense obviously has some impact 518 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:40,880 Speaker 2: on maybe blocking shots. But yeah, they went at Embiid. 519 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:42,640 Speaker 2: I think there's a they went at him like six 520 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 2: or seven times, like in a stretch in that in 521 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:48,560 Speaker 2: the second half, there og pressures of Chewa Siakam and 522 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:52,440 Speaker 2: they scored almost every time or got to the line. Yeah, 523 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,159 Speaker 2: and I couldn't like the Raptors grab control of this 524 00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 2: game in the second quarter and then they just held 525 00:22:57,240 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 2: onto it. Yeah, and they just like stiffed arm the 526 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:01,920 Speaker 2: Sixers for the rest of the second half, which I 527 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 2: gotta be honest, I'm watching it going, well, there's a 528 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 2: run in them, there's a Sixers run in them there, 529 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 2: and then how will the Raptors respind? And really just 530 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 2: didn't get all that close. They sort of kept it 531 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:12,440 Speaker 2: to eat to twelve points. 532 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 6: Yeah, well it got back to nine points and then 533 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:18,680 Speaker 6: the Raptor's got an alley oup to Thatius Young. That 534 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 6: tells you that the rim protection was not at its 535 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:23,439 Speaker 6: best last night. Then you had a Precious that you 536 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:26,280 Speaker 6: were dunk following that, and then you had Pascal Siakam 537 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,639 Speaker 6: sort of stretching out and hit a mid ranger and 538 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 6: then I think they got another dunk as well, another 539 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 6: oop dunky. 540 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 2: Scudy bones through twoops. 541 00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:35,880 Speaker 6: Yeah to Precious. I thought Precious has changed so much 542 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 6: from the start of this season in his decision making 543 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 6: and his composure. It's incredible now where you're like, I 544 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 6: trust him to make the right decision. He was he 545 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 6: still loves the three point defense to the committ But 546 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 6: but right now, that's the thing, is that the last 547 00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 6: place in the world the Sixers want to be is 548 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 6: in Toronto right now, because. 549 00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 2: Oh my god, that Eric Consenter, Scotia Baker Da or 550 00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 2: whatever the hell's called Jurassic Park is going to be 551 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:04,200 Speaker 2: going insane. 552 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 6: For givesick, Doc Rivers wants Game six more than he 553 00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 6: wants Game seven. I because the last thing Philadelphia wants 554 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:12,360 Speaker 6: to have to do is defend home court to save 555 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 6: a potential coming back from three zero down Raptors. Here, 556 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 6: this is a disaster right now for Philadelphia, because that's 557 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 6: the thing. If they were being pushed and put under 558 00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 6: any pressure, how would they respond? And as trade points 559 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,560 Speaker 6: out after the game, they're kind of like, it's not 560 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:29,440 Speaker 6: my fault, some you know, you didn't do your giant, 561 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 6: you know. 562 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 2: And after a game four it was the officials fault, 563 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:34,119 Speaker 2: that's right. And then after a game five, yeah, I 564 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 2: guess it was each other double. 565 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 6: On yeah, yeah, yeah, So this is I know. Gormetzpard 566 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:43,399 Speaker 6: had a good tweet. He said, you know what, before 567 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 6: the game, he said, if the Raptors lose d to 568 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:49,200 Speaker 6: a promising season. But if they win the ks, my god, 569 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 6: the k because people look obviously everyone's pointing out if 570 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 6: one team and one coach is likely to lose and 571 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 6: blow a three zero leite, it's Doc and it's James 572 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 6: Harden and it's a six team. Yeah, so who knows 573 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,560 Speaker 6: what happens, but and whether or not Freddy even plays 574 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 6: in that game. But the rapt has just played last 575 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:10,119 Speaker 6: night with that the looseness of like we put ourselves 576 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 6: under too much pressure. I think in last has two. 577 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 2: Games, and like, let's be honest too, they're a different 578 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:16,239 Speaker 2: team than when they started this series, right, I mean 579 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 2: there was the Gary Trent junior sickness. He was obviously affected. 580 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:21,399 Speaker 2: I mean it was like like I thought he was 581 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 2: gonna hurl on the floor for crying out loud or 582 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 2: shoot his pants whatever that was gonna be. So like 583 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:26,720 Speaker 2: he's sort of like giving them something now. There were 584 00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 2: Scottie Barnes of course missing the start of this series 585 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:32,199 Speaker 2: after the quick injury, like and then then then Van 586 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:35,200 Speaker 2: Vliet going out completely changes them too. Guys we talked 587 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:38,200 Speaker 2: about they just have all these guys that are switchable defenders. 588 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 2: There's a lot more length. 589 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 5: I think it is. 590 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:42,639 Speaker 2: It has at least had an impact on MAXI where 591 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 2: it's a it's OGI generally like, Okay, that's a good 592 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 2: I mean, he's fast enough, obviously long enough, and he's 593 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:50,680 Speaker 2: like sort of doing good jobs staying in front of them. 594 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:53,160 Speaker 2: So it's like they're just like and then Prescire's playing 595 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:55,679 Speaker 2: this way, They're just a different team. Like I enjoy 596 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 2: burying and piling dirt on the Sixers just as much 597 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:01,120 Speaker 2: because well, this would be brutal. But I just think 598 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 2: the Raptors are playing much more up to their capabilities, 599 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,360 Speaker 2: I guess, or what we saw for a good chunk 600 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 2: of the and why a lot of people picked them 601 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 2: to win the series to begin with. I can't believe 602 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 2: they're gonna do this. I just gonna win. You gotta 603 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 2: fly forgets, you fly home for games. 604 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:16,400 Speaker 5: Got game. 605 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:19,439 Speaker 2: I'm sticking with what's working right now. I was on 606 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 2: the I was putting in work last night. I was 607 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 2: on their treadmill for this game. Wow, put in twenty 608 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:25,920 Speaker 2: miles on the treadmill. 609 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:27,000 Speaker 5: You know boring that wins. 610 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:29,720 Speaker 2: I'm not that boring when you're watching the Raptors take 611 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:31,679 Speaker 2: the Sixers ass I'll tell. 612 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 5: You that loving it. Imagine if the Raptors actually play 613 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 5: good too. They made eight. 614 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:41,280 Speaker 4: From three, they made eleven free throws, basically nothing. This 615 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:43,200 Speaker 4: wasn't a game where either team was really going to 616 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 4: be complaining about the refs. The thing they did was 617 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:47,439 Speaker 4: take care of the ball. Only eight turnovers. They forced 618 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:49,959 Speaker 4: more out of the Sixers, for sure. But the Raptors 619 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 4: could go to another level, no doubt about it. I mean, 620 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:55,160 Speaker 4: maybe they don't necessarily have their shooters with Van Vleep 621 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 4: being in and out of the lineup and Gary Trent uh, 622 00:26:57,920 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 4: you know, kind of being up and down with his 623 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 4: on this. But the Raptors can play better as well, 624 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 4: and that tends to be when you're back in your home. 625 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:06,360 Speaker 5: Bar and your home bank, if you will. 626 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it would be great timing. You're right 627 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:10,920 Speaker 2: for like a Gary Trent junior to hit six three, yes, 628 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,359 Speaker 2: or you know, even og who's capable knockdown shooter hit 629 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:15,919 Speaker 2: four or five. And those guys, you know they hit 630 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:16,360 Speaker 2: a couple. 631 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 6: Get a huge one, actually I did. Yeah, give me 632 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:19,639 Speaker 6: Kevin Callabra on the cold too. 633 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 2: I like them, So yeah, we will see. I guess 634 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 2: fortunate for the Sixers is Game six is until Thursday. Yeah, 635 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 2: you get a little a little bit of a break 636 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 2: here for dwelling ban time to think about it, time 637 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 2: to think about it. But I think in Bean can 638 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 2: use all the rest again, he looked, he looked ghassed. 639 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:43,160 Speaker 6: Yeah he did, he did. And a long series doesn't 640 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 6: help James Hodden as well. Historically we know he tends 641 00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:46,680 Speaker 6: to fly him out hard. 642 00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:48,920 Speaker 2: It was I mean, I forget like you wouldn't. You 643 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:50,880 Speaker 2: had to remind me he was even playing on that game. 644 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 2: I know the box score I'm sure looks okay at 645 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,919 Speaker 2: the end. But if no no impact really on this game. 646 00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 6: But for the Raptors, if Danny Green is at it, 647 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 6: and when I'm pointing back to the year against the 648 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:03,639 Speaker 6: Trey Young when he played, if Danny Young's on, you 649 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:04,600 Speaker 6: just drive straight. 650 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 2: At the Dan's sorry Danny Green. 651 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 6: Yeah, if he's on, you drive past him. He's too slow, 652 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:11,280 Speaker 6: He's way too slow. He can be a decent veteran 653 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:13,960 Speaker 6: hitting three. So at the other end, fine, defensively, he's 654 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:16,479 Speaker 6: as slow as anything. Charge addim ify the Raptors. 655 00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:19,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I will say the Sixers went to some zone 656 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,480 Speaker 2: defense in this one. It was working. They stopped the 657 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 2: sixer excuse me, the Raptors a couple of times and 658 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:28,040 Speaker 2: it was like, again, get Spicy p or Thad Young 659 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 2: in the middle of that zone. Come on, we learned 660 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:32,640 Speaker 2: this in high school, how to beat the fricking two 661 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:34,680 Speaker 2: three zone. And then as they started getting it going, 662 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 2: and then the other thing is, please Nick Nurse. After 663 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 2: every sixers time out, I swear they hit a corner three. 664 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,960 Speaker 2: They always run the play where Danny Green or Yang 665 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 2: or like somebody hits their corner three. It happened so 666 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 2: many times in this game, and it feels like the series. 667 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 2: I don't know, maybe it's just like I'm only remembering 668 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:55,360 Speaker 2: those ones and not the misses, but just be ready 669 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:57,560 Speaker 2: for it. They want to shoot a corner three after 670 00:28:57,600 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 2: every like break and play like after you go away 671 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,440 Speaker 2: from Marcial and stuff like that. So yeah, you like 672 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:03,840 Speaker 2: the chances to at least go seven? 673 00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:07,239 Speaker 6: Absolutely? Yeah. I mean the funny things well, last night, 674 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:09,479 Speaker 6: given the Nets being eliminated, is Gordon drag It, who 675 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:11,480 Speaker 6: didn't want to play. They trade him for that young 676 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:13,680 Speaker 6: fat Young. I mean not a huge box score, but 677 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 6: just his presence as an impact. In sixteen minutes, he 678 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:18,600 Speaker 6: took two shots only made one but three rebounds three 679 00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:21,280 Speaker 6: says I felt he was way more impactful than that, 680 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:25,960 Speaker 6: So it's pretty crazy to see. Yeah, man, wow, Game 681 00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:27,200 Speaker 6: six is going to be wild. 682 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 2: Oh my goodness. Any final thoughts on rap sixers. 683 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 4: Uh, let's see some more furk and cork mint. 684 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 5: Oh boy, well, knowing deep in the bag, pull out 685 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 5: your furkin. 686 00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:41,680 Speaker 2: Well, you know what's funny is it's funny to bring 687 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:43,719 Speaker 2: that up. Remember at the start of this series, when 688 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 2: we were like making our predictions and talking it out, 689 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:48,640 Speaker 2: we said, wow, could it be beneficial? It sounds weird, 690 00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 2: but like Diable can't play in Toronto. 691 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:54,880 Speaker 5: In Philadelphia exactly, and that was why. 692 00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 2: And man, he's playing in this one and to the 693 00:29:56,800 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 2: point like raptors, avoid avoid avoid playing him, don't worry 694 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 2: about him, let him shoot, and yeah it was bad. 695 00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 2: And then he was like I think he was in 696 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:06,720 Speaker 2: his head and he threw away a brutal turnover and 697 00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 2: I think that's when Docler took him out. He's like, 698 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:10,240 Speaker 2: oh boy, yeah, Like I don't you know, we're not 699 00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 2: gonna see in Toronto, of course, not if it goes seven, 700 00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 2: which is I'm not sure how much you'll see him 701 00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:17,040 Speaker 2: even in a game seven, right now. 702 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 6: I guess though after that there's no chance of going 703 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:21,880 Speaker 6: back to Toronto. Maybe he gets more time, but remember 704 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:24,040 Speaker 6: we I made fun of ducks and we wouldn't have 705 00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 6: won the game with that teas anyway, Yeah, it was right. 706 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:28,600 Speaker 2: Maybe it was right. He has not been playing well 707 00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 2: and like, yeah, he's just out there and everyone's like, yeah, 708 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 2: he's a great defensive player, but just don't worry about 709 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:37,320 Speaker 2: him on that. Let him shoot away, all right, let's 710 00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:39,400 Speaker 2: take our first break and when we come back, we'll 711 00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 2: get into the MAVs beating the Jazz and John Morant 712 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 2: winning Most Improved. 713 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:47,800 Speaker 6: Yeah right, yeah, yeah, there was something going on via, but. 714 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 2: There was like a raccoon. 715 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 6: I'm trying to distract me, but I'm like, it's something 716 00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:54,680 Speaker 6: gonna fall on my head. I don't know. Anyway, I 717 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 6: thought you. 718 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,040 Speaker 5: Were doing a William Shatner peloton. 719 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:04,480 Speaker 2: Hi, back here in the Classic Factory. Let's get to 720 00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:08,479 Speaker 2: the blowout from last night. Fortunately you haven't had a 721 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:12,240 Speaker 2: lot of like just rushing blowout stinkers. 722 00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:14,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, so I'm not familiar with any to be quo. 723 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 4: That's all right, that's actually nope, I haven't been so 724 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:18,320 Speaker 4: I haven't seen a single blow I. 725 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:20,640 Speaker 2: Sort of forgot about that series The Bucks Bulls because 726 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:22,400 Speaker 2: I've sort of been avoiding that series. 727 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:24,800 Speaker 5: Of Saturday, Friday and Sunday. Good time to get blown out. 728 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, we had Luka Danchet scoring thirty three points, 729 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 2: so as the MAVs beat the Jazz one O two 730 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 2: seventy seven. I mean this was brutal to take the 731 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 2: three to two series lead. What happened in this one? TK? 732 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 4: You remember that sick Gandolf analogy I made yesterday. It 733 00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:40,800 Speaker 4: took a while to get there, but yeah, yeah, totally 734 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 4: nailed that. Donovan Mitchell threw an Alliott to Rudy Gobert 735 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:45,880 Speaker 4: to win Game four. Could have been the turning point 736 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 4: for the Jazz, but it turns out they hate Lord 737 00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:51,240 Speaker 4: of the Rings too long, too many characters, kind of 738 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 4: confusing that there's a guy named Boromir and far A 739 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:57,880 Speaker 4: Mere their brothers. I also think that Vigo Mortenson and 740 00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 4: Sean Bean look too similar to be in. 741 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:01,880 Speaker 5: The same movie going up against each other. 742 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 4: Nonetheless, a supremely disappointing effort from the Jazz last night. 743 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:09,520 Speaker 4: Zero fight, zero sense of urgency, and zero building on 744 00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 4: something that really could have galvanized the team. They got 745 00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 4: absolutely smoked, just like when Saramon's Army was defeated. 746 00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:18,000 Speaker 5: At Helms Deep Am I right, yep yeah. 747 00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 4: MAVs meanwhile got excellent performances from Dancic and brunson once again. 748 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 4: Thirty three, thirteen and five for the Donk took over 749 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 4: in the third quarter nineteen points, three threes, shimming and 750 00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:33,120 Speaker 4: just generally rubbing it in the face of the Utah 751 00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 4: Jazz in his first home game since that calf injury. 752 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:39,840 Speaker 4: This would have been a sweep if Luca was playing. 753 00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 4: I do think Brunsonville went for twenty four points. I'm 754 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:46,680 Speaker 4: a slightly inefficient nine of twenty shooting, but fifty seven 755 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:49,880 Speaker 4: points from the MAVs starting back court thirty seven total 756 00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 4: for the Jazz starters. Gobart had seventeen points. He was 757 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 4: the high man for the Jazz starters, single digits for Bogdanovic, 758 00:32:57,760 --> 00:32:59,760 Speaker 4: who went two points on ol of nine shooting. He's 759 00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 4: been a liable player for them so far in this series. 760 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 5: Not last night. 761 00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:05,360 Speaker 4: Mike Conley went for four points on one of six 762 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:09,080 Speaker 4: shooting and looks completely washed right now. Royce O'Neil, He's 763 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:11,560 Speaker 4: not a scorer anyways, but he didn't do much last night, 764 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:14,200 Speaker 4: and then just nine points on four of fifteen shooting 765 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:17,880 Speaker 4: for Donovan Mitchell. The Jazz starters combined to shoot thirteen 766 00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,360 Speaker 4: of forty three. That's thirty percent, which is how the 767 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 4: MAVs won this thing pretty easily while shooting forty three 768 00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 4: percent from the field, which is fine, but just. 769 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:26,720 Speaker 5: Twenty eight percent from three. 770 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:29,480 Speaker 4: Like they won by twenty five points, it really was 771 00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:31,680 Speaker 4: more like a forty five point game, and it could 772 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:33,560 Speaker 4: have been even worse. Part of it is defense. The 773 00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:36,080 Speaker 4: MAVs are doing an awesome job limiting the threes from 774 00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 4: the Jazz. Utah went three of thirty last night. They 775 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:40,320 Speaker 4: were the best three point shooting team in the league. 776 00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:44,000 Speaker 4: They're taking ten threes less per game. That's crazy. Also, 777 00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 4: the MAVs are able to keep the Jazz away from 778 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 4: the rim and just force Utah into floaters despite the 779 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:50,960 Speaker 4: fact that they play like Dwight Powell as their center. 780 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:54,440 Speaker 4: Maxi Cleve's like probably their best rim protector. But to me, 781 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 4: the biggest thing is that Donovan Mitchell looks like he's done. 782 00:33:57,920 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 5: Of in with y'all. 783 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 4: Yes, weird from Mitchell nine points four or fifteen, shooting 784 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:05,120 Speaker 4: four turnovers to one assist. I think he did make 785 00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:07,560 Speaker 4: a layup, but this guy is a floater fast, and 786 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:09,879 Speaker 4: it's just a really, really tough shot. He's at twenty 787 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:13,520 Speaker 4: six points per game in this series, which is fine, 788 00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:15,879 Speaker 4: but it's been helped by some inefficient nates, no doubt 789 00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:18,080 Speaker 4: about it. Thirty eight percent from the field, twenty percent 790 00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,560 Speaker 4: from three, picked up a handstring. 791 00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:21,840 Speaker 5: Late, and this one in the fourth quarter. 792 00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 4: Down by twenty eight points, he was still in the 793 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:26,759 Speaker 4: game for whatever reason. He says he's going to play 794 00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:28,799 Speaker 4: in Game six, but if he's just checked out as 795 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:30,839 Speaker 4: he was in Game five, don't even bother. 796 00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 6: I can't believe what I saw, honestly from the Jazz 797 00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:36,520 Speaker 6: chance to get home and win this series and close 798 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:38,719 Speaker 6: it out coming back, and last night they were like 799 00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:41,560 Speaker 6: we'd done no matter what, and now the MAVs are 800 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:43,600 Speaker 6: going to go there, and I honestly think I think 801 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:45,440 Speaker 6: they're going to just close it out in six because, 802 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,759 Speaker 6: as Trey saying, Donovan Mitchell's basically made the decision for 803 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:51,120 Speaker 6: the front office. Get me out of here. I don't 804 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 6: care he No one really showed that pride last night 805 00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:58,480 Speaker 6: for the Jazz That's what's embarrassing. If you lose on 806 00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:00,400 Speaker 6: a buzzer beat or your fight to the why, or 807 00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 6: a guy's getting foul trouble, an injury, there's some sort 808 00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:05,600 Speaker 6: of built an excuse you can make an excuse for them. 809 00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:07,880 Speaker 6: There was no excuse for them last night to just 810 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:10,080 Speaker 6: be like and I agree one hundred percent with a 811 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:12,319 Speaker 6: Tray saying like, I thought, wow, that moment there with 812 00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:14,960 Speaker 6: Rudy and Donovan, that could be the turning point the 813 00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 6: Jazz could just go and steal this series. And instead 814 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:20,880 Speaker 6: it was just like, why did you catch that lob, Rudy? 815 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:25,160 Speaker 6: You know we could have closed it. Yeah, It's like 816 00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 6: he accidentally passed it to Rudy. He was like, ah, jeez, 817 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:31,759 Speaker 6: I how can I not pass it to him now? 818 00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:36,480 Speaker 6: But instead they just showed no fight, no heart. This 819 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:40,280 Speaker 6: one was embarrassing on so many levels. Down sixteen points 820 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:43,759 Speaker 6: at halftime of a game, that's your season is on 821 00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:46,239 Speaker 6: the line right there, and they they don't have the 822 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:50,439 Speaker 6: injury excuse. You know everyone's you know healthy, so yeah, 823 00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:55,080 Speaker 6: now well yeah, I mean it doesn't matter about the 824 00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 6: hamstring if he's got the attitude that he's played with 825 00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:00,799 Speaker 6: many times in this series did really get to the 826 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:04,120 Speaker 6: free throw line there last night. Hard to look at 827 00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:06,400 Speaker 6: Utah and think, even if they were to somehow extend 828 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 6: this to seven, and even if they were to somehow 829 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:10,799 Speaker 6: pull this series off, there's no chance in the next round. 830 00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:12,280 Speaker 6: They just don't want to play together. 831 00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:16,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, look, we thought when they went or 832 00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:19,080 Speaker 2: I guess when they were down to one that it 833 00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:21,080 Speaker 2: was like, ah, they're probably done as it is, and 834 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:24,040 Speaker 2: we're down four points late and pull out the pretty 835 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:26,759 Speaker 2: miraculous comeback, So they maybe have some fight still in 836 00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:29,799 Speaker 2: them for Game six. I wouldn't. I wouldn't say it's 837 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:30,919 Speaker 2: over just Quitte yet. 838 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 6: I mean, it shouldn't be. This is a team that 839 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:37,160 Speaker 6: has got so many factors that other teams love. Continuity, 840 00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:40,959 Speaker 6: star players, well coached, they're deep, they shoot the three, 841 00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:43,560 Speaker 6: they defend well. How many franchises would love to have 842 00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:46,480 Speaker 6: just that reputation, like, well, you're getting forty five to 843 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:48,399 Speaker 6: fifty wins just because you do it every year. You've 844 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:50,399 Speaker 6: got a great home court. But they get to this 845 00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:53,480 Speaker 6: point of their time together and instead it feels like 846 00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,120 Speaker 6: they're this is their first time together and it's like, ah, yeah, 847 00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 6: playoffs team. You know, they need some they need some experience. 848 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 6: This would be good for them in the future. Instead, 849 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:02,759 Speaker 6: it's like they've somehow gotten worse. I mean, there were 850 00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:04,879 Speaker 6: a chance they could finish second. They should have won 851 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:07,240 Speaker 6: fifty five games. They finished with forty nine this season. 852 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:10,600 Speaker 6: It looks like, okay, this this is just done. This 853 00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 6: combination of Rudy and donovan Ja two stars. 854 00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:18,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, bad bad timing on Bugdanovic's part to go put 855 00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:20,279 Speaker 2: up the stinker there the zero for nine. I think 856 00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 2: he hit a three. 857 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:22,120 Speaker 5: No, child didn't hit a three. 858 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:26,920 Speaker 2: Nobody could three for thirty three for three. Yeah, that's 859 00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:29,719 Speaker 2: really really crazy for a team that, like you said, 860 00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:32,200 Speaker 2: is generally a pretty good three point shooting team or 861 00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:34,840 Speaker 2: among some of the best in the league. So h yeah, 862 00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:36,320 Speaker 2: what do you think you think this one's over in 863 00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:38,879 Speaker 2: Utah for Game six? I think on Thursday night as. 864 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:41,880 Speaker 4: Well, Yeah I do. I mean I would like to 865 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:44,600 Speaker 4: see the Jazz have one good game. You know, it 866 00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:46,960 Speaker 4: was nice. The comeback was nice in Game four, no 867 00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:49,480 Speaker 4: doubt about it. But the Jazz just haven't looked like 868 00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:52,439 Speaker 4: a Jazz team that we expect playing solid defense. I mean, 869 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:54,920 Speaker 4: it's it's tough out there for them to guard right now. 870 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:57,359 Speaker 4: They can't guard Doncic, they can't guard brunts, and it's 871 00:37:57,400 --> 00:37:58,759 Speaker 4: just a matter of are they going to make shots 872 00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:00,200 Speaker 4: or are they going to miss him? And then they get 873 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,760 Speaker 4: wide open threes outside. But the fact that the offense 874 00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:06,960 Speaker 4: is falling completely off off a cliff too is super weird. Like, Okay, 875 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:09,840 Speaker 4: we kind of understand that the Jazz may get exposed 876 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,080 Speaker 4: as a small ball team, and that's definitely happened. But 877 00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:15,240 Speaker 4: Mitchell has been such a disappointment. This guy has shown 878 00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:17,480 Speaker 4: up in the playoffs time and time again, and the 879 00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:19,640 Speaker 4: fact that he's shooting thirty eight percent as the lead 880 00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:22,479 Speaker 4: guy and just looking checked out, like, I mean, yeah, 881 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:25,360 Speaker 4: Bogdanovic is oh for nine, but fine, Like anything you 882 00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:28,239 Speaker 4: get from him is almost a cherry on the top 883 00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:31,080 Speaker 4: of the Sunday if you're expecting three pointers from everybody 884 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:33,200 Speaker 4: else and you're expecting Mitchell to be the guy who's 885 00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:35,680 Speaker 4: the head of the snake, really leading the charge and 886 00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:37,719 Speaker 4: starting out the driving kick machine that has been so 887 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:41,959 Speaker 4: successful for four five seasons at this point, but he's 888 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:44,480 Speaker 4: not playing with the force necessary to win this series, 889 00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:47,920 Speaker 4: and he's making things even tougher by shooting floaters every 890 00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:50,480 Speaker 4: single time floaters every single time, would Achille you to 891 00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:51,160 Speaker 4: take one layup? 892 00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 5: He took one free throw last night. Get to the line. 893 00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:56,480 Speaker 4: The guy was compared to Dwayne Wade so many times 894 00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:59,160 Speaker 4: early in his career. Dwayne Wade played defense and Dwayne 895 00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:01,640 Speaker 4: Wade went to the line all the time. Yeah, that's 896 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:02,719 Speaker 4: wanting to stuff right there. 897 00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:05,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll see what happens in game six. I still 898 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 2: think this one's going seven for some weird reason. 899 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:09,239 Speaker 6: I could think that's the thing. It could if they 900 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:10,640 Speaker 6: play to the potential. 901 00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:13,480 Speaker 2: But yeah, and like what's crazy is the MAVs did 902 00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:16,560 Speaker 2: not play like an elite game. That's like, you know, yeah, 903 00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:19,799 Speaker 2: Like I will say, bringing Luca back in game four 904 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:22,839 Speaker 2: looked very smart here in game five, you know, getting him, Yeah, 905 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:24,920 Speaker 2: that thirty to thirty four minutes whenever he played in 906 00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:26,799 Speaker 2: game four, even though they lost, And I was like 907 00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:29,759 Speaker 2: on the weekend shift wondering like, wow, maybe maybe you 908 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:31,360 Speaker 2: just let the good thing that was happening there with 909 00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:34,000 Speaker 2: Brunson and Dinwity and all that attacking you let that continue. 910 00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:37,360 Speaker 2: But uh, now it looks smart because he was pretty amazing. 911 00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:39,960 Speaker 2: I mean, he was clowning them too, and he really 912 00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:43,120 Speaker 2: helps I always forget this with Luca. He's an awesome rebounder, 913 00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:46,319 Speaker 2: the Fish with thirteen in this game. They're small as 914 00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:48,880 Speaker 2: it is the MAVs. You need all those and he 915 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:50,879 Speaker 2: was fantastic. I think Kid talked about it after the game. 916 00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:52,400 Speaker 2: He's one of our best rebounders. 917 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 6: The big guy. 918 00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:56,879 Speaker 2: Gets in there and ends possessions. So yeah, they were, 919 00:39:57,360 --> 00:39:59,239 Speaker 2: they were embarrassing them. I turned this one off at 920 00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:01,480 Speaker 2: the end of third charter. I said, that's it. Good night, 921 00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:05,399 Speaker 2: I'm going to sleep because there's it was sixteen points 922 00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:08,120 Speaker 2: that you said a half, Right, you know you're down 923 00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:10,719 Speaker 2: that much first half leaser fake. You need to put 924 00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:12,520 Speaker 2: together a good five or six minutes and like get 925 00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:14,239 Speaker 2: yourself back in the game if you're the Jazz. And 926 00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 2: they did the opposite. They lost that quarter by ten, 927 00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:17,680 Speaker 2: and it was it was a smoke show. 928 00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:19,799 Speaker 6: Yeah, and that's it. I mean, what does Queen snod 929 00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 6: have decided? It was got I cost sixteen points? We 930 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:23,719 Speaker 6: win this? Remember we going home of a chance that 931 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:25,719 Speaker 6: I was out instead that just like, let's just go 932 00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:27,920 Speaker 6: home and see if we can drag it out to seven. 933 00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:32,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll see. Had some award news, guys. Yes, we've 934 00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:37,879 Speaker 2: got another one, Jomran twenty twenty one twenty two Most 935 00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:40,960 Speaker 2: Improved Player all right, that was announced on Monday, became 936 00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:43,160 Speaker 2: the first player in NBA history to win both Rookie 937 00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:46,680 Speaker 2: of the Year and Most Improved in a single career, 938 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:52,840 Speaker 2: did it in a three year window. John Morant received 939 00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:56,200 Speaker 2: thirty eight first place votes. Overall, there was a lot 940 00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:58,440 Speaker 2: of people getting votes, which isn't really surprising when it 941 00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:01,200 Speaker 2: comes to this award. De jontaymar coming in second place 942 00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:04,080 Speaker 2: with twenty first place votes and then Cavs guard Darius 943 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:07,320 Speaker 2: Garland finishing in third with eleven first place votes. 944 00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:08,719 Speaker 6: Ah. 945 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:11,680 Speaker 2: Look, I feel like we've talked about this time and 946 00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:14,640 Speaker 2: time again. I think it's really silly that John Moran 947 00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:17,719 Speaker 2: is winning Most Improved At this point, I almost don't 948 00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:20,560 Speaker 2: care anymore, like everybody else can get all upset about it. 949 00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:23,840 Speaker 2: But what were your thoughts on jaw winning this. He 950 00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:26,279 Speaker 2: tried to give the award to Desmond Bane and then 951 00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:28,520 Speaker 2: Desmond Bane didn't even want it. No, it's your award. 952 00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:29,200 Speaker 2: I can't take it. 953 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:31,200 Speaker 6: Well. I think more people are in your sort of 954 00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:33,840 Speaker 6: side here where they're like, okay, we need to determine 955 00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:36,640 Speaker 6: whether or not it's an award to stock and win 956 00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:38,759 Speaker 6: or something more surprising. 957 00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:42,000 Speaker 2: Player Draymond Green has called it where it's gone over 958 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:46,160 Speaker 2: the last little bit young MVP, which I think there's 959 00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:46,640 Speaker 2: a lot better. 960 00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:49,279 Speaker 5: I wrote MVP junior, Yeah, young. 961 00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:53,880 Speaker 2: Same idea is like, hey, you're not quite at the 962 00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:57,160 Speaker 2: MVP level, but you're very young. You've sort of taken 963 00:41:57,200 --> 00:41:59,719 Speaker 2: that step of that leap, so here you go. 964 00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:02,560 Speaker 6: Goods the personally, I think it's whatever you want it 965 00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:06,239 Speaker 6: to be because obvious, Yeah, unless they come up with 966 00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:09,000 Speaker 6: like a sophomore award and then it's like a veteran's 967 00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:11,440 Speaker 6: awards maybe for someone who's had a good resurgence of 968 00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:13,520 Speaker 6: the career, which it used to be sort of comeback 969 00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:15,480 Speaker 6: Player of the Year award, then we're always going to 970 00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:17,680 Speaker 6: have this same debate. It's a bit silly to me. 971 00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:21,839 Speaker 6: You know, if you disqualify someone just because they took 972 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:25,200 Speaker 6: a leap from star to superstar, you know, it's like, hey, 973 00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:28,520 Speaker 6: Joe Morant improved from like hey that guy is pretty 974 00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:29,960 Speaker 6: good to like, oh my god, this guy is a 975 00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:32,799 Speaker 6: legit star, so he's worthy. In my opinion, I thought 976 00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:35,600 Speaker 6: Jaron Jackson improved so much this season on both ends 977 00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:38,200 Speaker 6: of the floor, I thought Desmond Bane was incredible, you know, 978 00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:40,800 Speaker 6: for so all these other guys, I thought Darius galand 979 00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:43,480 Speaker 6: Jordan Paul and de Jonte Mary, yeah, all worthy of 980 00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:46,440 Speaker 6: the award. But ultimately, if it is the most improved, 981 00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:49,160 Speaker 6: jar took a leap that was way higher in terms 982 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:51,000 Speaker 6: of the getting to the elite level than those guys 983 00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:54,520 Speaker 6: just improving as basketball players and the way I interpret it, 984 00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:56,560 Speaker 6: but it's like the Rookie of the Year, I think 985 00:42:56,560 --> 00:42:59,239 Speaker 6: it's silly that a rookie can sit out his entire 986 00:42:59,280 --> 00:43:01,840 Speaker 6: first season and win the award in his second season 987 00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:06,040 Speaker 6: because Julius Randall played fourteen minutes of his rookie campaign 988 00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:08,239 Speaker 6: and was ineligible for Rookie of the Year next season 989 00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:10,279 Speaker 6: because he got on the court, right, So there's some 990 00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:13,600 Speaker 6: all these awards have weird little like things like that, 991 00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:16,080 Speaker 6: And I think for this one, unless there's a specific 992 00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:19,000 Speaker 6: like Okay, you're already good, you can't win this award, 993 00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:20,840 Speaker 6: then you may as well just hand it to the 994 00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:22,800 Speaker 6: guy who really did improve the most of this season. 995 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:25,680 Speaker 6: And I think collectively John Morant ticks those boxes. 996 00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:29,760 Speaker 2: Uh, what are your thoughts on a number two overall pick? 997 00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:30,319 Speaker 6: Who was? 998 00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:33,879 Speaker 2: I mean, this is the funny part last season, Yes, 999 00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:36,560 Speaker 2: he wasn't an All Star, but everybody was like, Ja 1000 00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:40,040 Speaker 2: Morant is well on his way to becoming a superstar. 1001 00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:41,719 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm sorry if you didn't see that then, 1002 00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:43,640 Speaker 2: I don't know you weren't watching Grizzlies games. I mean 1003 00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:45,920 Speaker 2: it was pretty apparent. And then he put it all together. 1004 00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:48,120 Speaker 2: They won a lot of games. He increased a lot 1005 00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:51,120 Speaker 2: of his you know, scoring and assists, not as much 1006 00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:53,680 Speaker 2: as Desmond being and in both those categories it will 1007 00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:56,480 Speaker 2: point out. But yeah, I mean, I guess Brandon Ingram 1008 00:43:56,520 --> 00:44:00,120 Speaker 2: won Most Improved and he was a second pick overall. 1009 00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:03,160 Speaker 2: I don't know it's that bode well for James Wiseman him. 1010 00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:06,440 Speaker 4: I guess if you're a promising young player and you 1011 00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:08,759 Speaker 4: don't set the league on fire right away, yeah, maybe 1012 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:10,480 Speaker 4: you're gonna be winning it here in your third year 1013 00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:13,120 Speaker 4: or something like that. Jaw to me is a little 1014 00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:15,640 Speaker 4: bit different than all of the people that people have 1015 00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:17,799 Speaker 4: been referencing lately. Like you see Yanna show up on 1016 00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:20,279 Speaker 4: the Most Improved Player list, He was not Yannis at 1017 00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:22,640 Speaker 4: the point where he won Most Improved Player, right, I mean, 1018 00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:25,480 Speaker 4: Ingram never got to the heights that Jah did so. Yeah, 1019 00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:27,280 Speaker 4: it is a little bit of a Young MVP award, 1020 00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:30,160 Speaker 4: but if anybody's going to be the young MVP this season, 1021 00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:31,240 Speaker 4: it should be John Morant. 1022 00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:33,319 Speaker 5: And it is cool that he can share it with 1023 00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:35,400 Speaker 5: all of the various Grizzlies. He's also got awards. 1024 00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:37,640 Speaker 4: It's almost like we're giving it to you, jaw for 1025 00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:39,719 Speaker 4: a couple of reasons. You should, you should get some 1026 00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:41,839 Speaker 4: MVP love, but you're not gonna get the actual MVP. 1027 00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:44,440 Speaker 4: Here you go, here's your here's your ball. But also 1028 00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:47,200 Speaker 4: your teammates are also very well improved, so like pass 1029 00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:49,600 Speaker 4: it around a little bit, like, let me hold that 1030 00:44:49,640 --> 00:44:50,319 Speaker 4: with a with a. 1031 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:52,640 Speaker 5: Towel on my hands so my fingerprints don't get on it. 1032 00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:56,600 Speaker 5: I was a little confused. How did the award get 1033 00:44:56,640 --> 00:44:58,520 Speaker 5: to Desmond Bain's house so quickly? 1034 00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:01,879 Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly, Jah, go and drop it off and then 1035 00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:03,640 Speaker 4: hide and then make hey, go look at your go 1036 00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:04,360 Speaker 4: look at your kitchen. 1037 00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:08,239 Speaker 2: I wanted to trying to put together the timeline of it, 1038 00:45:08,320 --> 00:45:10,680 Speaker 2: because the clip was going around of them handing it 1039 00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:14,200 Speaker 2: to John Morant at practice, and then I guess maybe 1040 00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:16,239 Speaker 2: it wasn't the next day, I guess it was in 1041 00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:19,560 Speaker 2: his house. He's in members there. Yeah, and what are 1042 00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:21,439 Speaker 2: your thoughts on all these awards looking all the same 1043 00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:23,399 Speaker 2: in this crystal ball, I already did, like my whole temper, 1044 00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:26,920 Speaker 2: boy ran on a weekend shift. But uh, well what 1045 00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:32,400 Speaker 2: I ruin, especially if you're going to make them all 1046 00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:35,719 Speaker 2: universal looking all the awards make them look cooler than that? 1047 00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:40,080 Speaker 6: Yeah? True, I mean you need like, uh like some 1048 00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:42,640 Speaker 6: sort of player representation of the award. I think, you know, 1049 00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:44,920 Speaker 6: like like the m VP is like the guy you 1050 00:45:44,960 --> 00:45:48,080 Speaker 6: know running, you know, so, I don't know, do. 1051 00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:50,279 Speaker 2: Something a bit more like the defensive player. 1052 00:45:51,760 --> 00:45:52,120 Speaker 5: Stands. 1053 00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:53,680 Speaker 6: So what would you do for most Improved? That's a 1054 00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:55,439 Speaker 6: that's a tough one. But maybe you could just get 1055 00:45:55,440 --> 00:45:57,880 Speaker 6: like Jar's block that, you know, that incredible block and 1056 00:45:58,360 --> 00:45:58,839 Speaker 6: make that. 1057 00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:00,520 Speaker 2: In custom awards one. 1058 00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:02,839 Speaker 6: You need to do it. I mean I would rather 1059 00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:05,080 Speaker 6: that than the than just he's a bowl. 1060 00:46:05,520 --> 00:46:07,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, so small ball at that, I said, Yeah, it's 1061 00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:11,520 Speaker 2: not even like that big diamonding they're passing around. Yea, 1062 00:46:11,520 --> 00:46:12,759 Speaker 2: at least that's substantial. 1063 00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:15,360 Speaker 6: Everyone looks a bit nervous when the holding next. What 1064 00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:16,000 Speaker 6: if I drop it? 1065 00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:18,120 Speaker 2: I wonder if it like cut your fingers a little 1066 00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:20,960 Speaker 2: bit too. I was Hey, Jim Ice, can I hold 1067 00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:24,800 Speaker 2: the NBA seven anniversary ball? Can I take a photo 1068 00:46:24,840 --> 00:46:27,800 Speaker 2: with it? I think we've gotten I think we've found 1069 00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:31,040 Speaker 2: every celebrity. We've now reached us and whatever tier we're in. 1070 00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:33,160 Speaker 5: I think it would be hard to store that award. 1071 00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:34,319 Speaker 2: Which one a ball? 1072 00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:36,799 Speaker 5: You need to stand, Yeah, yeah, you need to stand. 1073 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:38,719 Speaker 4: Maybe there is a stand in my big box, cause 1074 00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:42,040 Speaker 4: that was a huge box at Desmond Baines's house compared 1075 00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:43,799 Speaker 4: to the size of the ball. But I did like 1076 00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:47,000 Speaker 4: the consideration he was giving when he was hiding. Uh 1077 00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:49,120 Speaker 4: oh yeah, maybe who was that Santi Aldama? Maybe he 1078 00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:51,120 Speaker 4: was hiding behind as they presented him the award and 1079 00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:52,960 Speaker 4: he gave it to him. I thought it was very 1080 00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:54,640 Speaker 4: funny that he had the towel so that like it 1081 00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:56,520 Speaker 4: didn't have fingerprints when he gave the job. Jaw of 1082 00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:58,760 Speaker 4: course grabs it with his hand, but they're his fingerprint. 1083 00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:01,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right, that's right. Okay, Well, yeah, I wish 1084 00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:04,120 Speaker 2: we would go back to the to the older words 1085 00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:05,719 Speaker 2: like Rookie of the Year was just more of like 1086 00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:09,160 Speaker 2: a more of a bigger plaque type thing. I think 1087 00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:12,759 Speaker 2: it was glass too, if I remember correctly. Yeah, I 1088 00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:16,160 Speaker 2: don't love the concept of them all looking the scene biggest. 1089 00:47:16,440 --> 00:47:18,600 Speaker 6: I'm actually starting to believe myself here and think they 1090 00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:25,759 Speaker 6: should just create an individual one. Let's go back to like, 1091 00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:28,439 Speaker 6: you know, Magic Johnson rookie season wins the championship. Magic 1092 00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:29,920 Speaker 6: can be the Rookie of the Year award. You know, 1093 00:47:29,960 --> 00:47:32,120 Speaker 6: I know that was playoffs rather than regular season, but 1094 00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:35,080 Speaker 6: you know, the magic skyhook or something like that, that 1095 00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:37,120 Speaker 6: could be the Rookie of the Year award. Thinking what 1096 00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:41,479 Speaker 6: could be six man like, well, I know what sitting 1097 00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:48,279 Speaker 6: on the bench defense? What else we need with a. 1098 00:47:48,239 --> 00:47:51,680 Speaker 2: Coach like waving no you're not starting, you're not starting 1099 00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:54,120 Speaker 2: right right and pointing at the watch. 1100 00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:56,319 Speaker 5: You're coming in at the six minute work? Yeah, yeah, 1101 00:47:57,600 --> 00:47:59,920 Speaker 5: I think that Tymon Stokes the team made award that 1102 00:48:00,960 --> 00:48:03,000 Speaker 5: helping somebody out. I do like all of these actions. 1103 00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:06,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I concerned because we haven't got to them. Well, no, 1104 00:48:07,040 --> 00:48:09,000 Speaker 2: we got the Defensive Player of the Year one, which 1105 00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:13,359 Speaker 2: was the ball? Is the MVP gone? Are they are 1106 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:14,759 Speaker 2: we getting the crystal ball? 1107 00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:17,760 Speaker 4: Great question, VP, it should be a bigger ball, would 1108 00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:18,719 Speaker 4: be the biggest ball there is. 1109 00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:20,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, back to m I P. Here's a question I 1110 00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:24,600 Speaker 2: threw it on Twitter last night. Who's winning next season's 1111 00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:28,520 Speaker 2: MIP Most Improved? Forget the playoffs, Let's look, let's start 1112 00:48:28,520 --> 00:48:30,520 Speaker 2: talking about the regular season next year. If you're I 1113 00:48:30,520 --> 00:48:32,040 Speaker 2: don't know, I threw, I'll throw a couple of names 1114 00:48:32,080 --> 00:48:33,520 Speaker 2: at Okay, did you not see my tweet? 1115 00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:35,160 Speaker 6: No? It didn't say it was a great tweet. 1116 00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:39,280 Speaker 2: Again, I threw a couple of names. I said, Jalen Brunson, 1117 00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:43,400 Speaker 2: especially if he moves, you know, that could be big possibility. 1118 00:48:43,440 --> 00:48:46,239 Speaker 2: I think RJ Barrett where this war is now? He's 1119 00:48:46,239 --> 00:48:48,560 Speaker 2: already in a twenty point per game score. But but 1120 00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:51,600 Speaker 2: job last exactly, you know he kicked that up to 1121 00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:53,800 Speaker 2: twenty five twenty six. Maybe the team has more success. 1122 00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:55,960 Speaker 2: You could see that. Who the hell else did I 1123 00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:59,279 Speaker 2: have on that list? Dearon Fox? Don't you care? 1124 00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:01,680 Speaker 6: Give me that he's over twenty five a game on it? 1125 00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:02,279 Speaker 2: I don't care. 1126 00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:04,200 Speaker 6: So, yeah, he has to go to like thirty two game. 1127 00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:06,080 Speaker 2: He just has to get the team into the the 1128 00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:06,520 Speaker 2: play in. 1129 00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:07,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, I like that one. 1130 00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:12,319 Speaker 2: But okay, and I also had a kid Cunningham. Let's 1131 00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:16,080 Speaker 2: let's go sure. Yeah, now to give it to the 1132 00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:19,560 Speaker 2: number one overall pick, I'm actually think it's gonna happen. 1133 00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:23,239 Speaker 6: He could. I mean, he's a legit stud absolutely so if. 1134 00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:25,719 Speaker 2: He goes from being the number one pick finishing what 1135 00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:27,920 Speaker 2: third in Rookie of the Year, Yeah, and then he's 1136 00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:32,080 Speaker 2: he is a tr double type machine.

Nice 1253 00:55:04,400 --> 00:55:06,239 Speaker 2: to see Twitter still coming through. 1254 00:55:06,400 --> 00:55:08,480 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, why we've still got it. 1255 00:55:08,640 --> 00:55:15,319 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah. Tonight's NBA playoff games Hawks Heat. That one's 1256 00:55:15,360 --> 00:55:18,640 Speaker 2: on NBA TV, Uh, seven o'clock start there in Miami 1257 00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:21,040 Speaker 2: as the Heat will try and close out that series. 1258 00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:26,920 Speaker 2: And then we've got two Sasabasic games on T n T. 1259 00:55:27,520 --> 00:55:30,840 Speaker 2: And I say spicy because these are pivotal, pivotal game fives. 1260 00:55:30,920 --> 00:55:35,800 Speaker 2: Both series Wolves Grizz Pelican Son tied at two games apiece. 1261 00:55:35,840 --> 00:55:41,000 Speaker 2: So my question is, one, are these pivotal games which 1262 00:55:41,120 --> 00:55:43,400 Speaker 2: I'm hoping you would agree with? And yeah, who is 1263 00:55:43,400 --> 00:55:46,000 Speaker 2: there is there an upset here for the road team 1264 00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:49,239 Speaker 2: in either of these Minnesota going into Memphis or New Orleans. 1265 00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:52,320 Speaker 6: Going into last night? I picked all road teams to 1266 00:55:52,360 --> 00:55:54,680 Speaker 6: win got two out of three. I think all home 1267 00:55:54,680 --> 00:55:58,200 Speaker 6: teams are gonna win it tonight, So I don't the Hawks. 1268 00:55:58,920 --> 00:56:02,960 Speaker 6: Hawks don't really don't think that one's going anywhere, certainly Minnesota, 1269 00:56:03,080 --> 00:56:05,120 Speaker 6: Like this is still a weird series. Not quite sure 1270 00:56:05,120 --> 00:56:08,160 Speaker 6: which way it's gonna go. But I feel the Suns 1271 00:56:08,320 --> 00:56:11,160 Speaker 6: really have to get one not home here tonight because 1272 00:56:12,040 --> 00:56:13,600 Speaker 6: they kind of afford to go to New Leans the 1273 00:56:13,600 --> 00:56:15,719 Speaker 6: way the Pelicans have been playing, and to have to 1274 00:56:15,760 --> 00:56:17,480 Speaker 6: win to stay alive as a number one seed. So 1275 00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:19,560 Speaker 6: I think you're gonna see a better performance from the Phoenix, 1276 00:56:19,719 --> 00:56:20,719 Speaker 6: especially Chris Paul. 1277 00:56:20,960 --> 00:56:22,760 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, it's a huge one. What are your thoughts 1278 00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:24,440 Speaker 2: or things to watch for in any of these three 1279 00:56:24,440 --> 00:56:25,520 Speaker 2: games tonight? Where's this going? 1280 00:56:25,640 --> 00:56:27,680 Speaker 4: Different levels of interest in all three of these For 1281 00:56:27,760 --> 00:56:29,680 Speaker 4: the Hawks, I just want to see him play harder 1282 00:56:29,719 --> 00:56:32,960 Speaker 4: and play better. They got smacked by Miami. Obviously, you 1283 00:56:33,040 --> 00:56:35,960 Speaker 4: went to a great game Game three down here in Atlanta. 1284 00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:38,040 Speaker 4: We need to see more of the game three Hawks tonight. 1285 00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:40,920 Speaker 4: At least don't go out. If you're gonna lose in 1286 00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:42,960 Speaker 4: a four to one, at least make it a competitive 1287 00:56:42,960 --> 00:56:44,799 Speaker 4: four to one there at the end. I'm just gonna 1288 00:56:44,880 --> 00:56:47,560 Speaker 4: enjoy Memphis versus Minnesota. I don't ever feel like I 1289 00:56:47,560 --> 00:56:50,520 Speaker 4: know which way this series is going. Who knows which 1290 00:56:50,560 --> 00:56:52,799 Speaker 4: star is gonna have the awesome game. But it's cool 1291 00:56:52,800 --> 00:56:54,920 Speaker 4: when Towns is the best player. It's cool when Morant's 1292 00:56:54,960 --> 00:56:58,480 Speaker 4: the best player. Anthony Edwards, D'Angelo, Russell, Desmond Band, take 1293 00:56:58,520 --> 00:56:58,920 Speaker 4: your choice. 1294 00:56:58,920 --> 00:56:59,680 Speaker 5: That one's just fun. 1295 00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:01,480 Speaker 4: And I am a little interested to see what's going 1296 00:57:01,520 --> 00:57:03,600 Speaker 4: on with Chris Paul because there were some weird reports 1297 00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:06,640 Speaker 4: about his hand being damaged during halftime of that game. 1298 00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:09,359 Speaker 4: He only took eight shots in Game four, scored four points. 1299 00:57:09,440 --> 00:57:11,799 Speaker 4: He did have eleven assists. The guys a maestro out there, 1300 00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:13,320 Speaker 4: but they need him to be a little bit of 1301 00:57:13,360 --> 00:57:15,480 Speaker 4: a scorer as well. Booker is going to be missing time, 1302 00:57:16,320 --> 00:57:18,840 Speaker 4: so Pelicans have been clicking. They've been playing really important 1303 00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:21,320 Speaker 4: games for an extra week, and I mean, I guess 1304 00:57:21,320 --> 00:57:23,080 Speaker 4: you could say they've been playing more important games than 1305 00:57:23,120 --> 00:57:25,160 Speaker 4: the Suns did even during the stretch of the regular season. 1306 00:57:25,240 --> 00:57:28,120 Speaker 4: So I'd like to see Chris Paul go out there 1307 00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:29,960 Speaker 4: and have a, you know, a thirty point fifteen assist 1308 00:57:30,080 --> 00:57:32,000 Speaker 4: kind of game, or at the very least some Chris 1309 00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:33,560 Speaker 4: Paul fourth quarter takeover moments. 1310 00:57:33,680 --> 00:57:37,320 Speaker 2: Yes, very intrigued by that last game. I want to see, 1311 00:57:37,400 --> 00:57:40,000 Speaker 2: can anybody slow brandon Ingram right now? This guy is 1312 00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:43,400 Speaker 2: in a zone, And what's the Sun's answer to try 1313 00:57:43,440 --> 00:57:45,160 Speaker 2: and like get him out of his rhythm? Because this 1314 00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:48,120 Speaker 2: guy's cooking. He's great right now. I mean, if you're 1315 00:57:48,160 --> 00:57:52,920 Speaker 2: doing the list of like, you know, MVPs from the 1316 00:57:52,960 --> 00:57:55,320 Speaker 2: first round of the playoffs, yeah, Ingram's going to be 1317 00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:57,600 Speaker 2: very very high on that list. You know, Tatum coming 1318 00:57:57,640 --> 00:58:01,080 Speaker 2: to mine, Jimmy Butler coming to mine. But Ingram right 1319 00:58:01,080 --> 00:58:03,200 Speaker 2: there in the mix. So that one's gonna be awesome. 1320 00:58:03,200 --> 00:58:06,360 Speaker 2: The ten o'clock start. Get your espressos in you Okay, 1321 00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:07,920 Speaker 2: that one. You have to stay up and watch that one. 1322 00:58:07,960 --> 00:58:09,520 Speaker 2: I think something specials happened in that game. 1323 00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:11,760 Speaker 6: I have some how many.
