1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:04,520
Speaker 1: Hmm, welcome back to what's burning got my u c

2
00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:08,719
Speaker 1: l A Brethren, Gulnnie McCoy, back at it, Um, coming

3
00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:11,360
Speaker 1: to you from the city in San Francisco right now.

4
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:14,200
Speaker 1: I gotta call it game tonight, So on the road

5
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:18,880
Speaker 1: handling business. UM, let's get right to it, man, great

6
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:22,360
Speaker 1: game last night, Lakers Celtics went down to the end,

7
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:25,079
Speaker 1: Celtics blew a huge lead, Lakers came back, took the

8
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:30,080
Speaker 1: lead to push it to overtime. UM, before we get

9
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 1: to the overtime, let's just talk about the back and

10
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:35,519
Speaker 1: forth and and and what we saw from Tatum, who

11
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 1: to me is probably you know, should be the leading

12
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 1: vote getter in the MVP ballot right now. And what

13
00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:43,600
Speaker 1: we also saw from Lebron and a d and the

14
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 1: Lakers with with with an amazing come back. I'll start

15
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:51,840
Speaker 1: with Tatum. Tatum right now probably be the best player

16
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 1: in the league at that current at the current moment,

17
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 1: mad at that. I think you heard them talk on

18
00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 1: the West coach trip about, you know, how he shot

19
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 1: away from what was going on in Golden State. It

20
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:04,959
Speaker 1: was the last trip game on their trip of the

21
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:08,280
Speaker 1: West Coast ring. You know, Lakers Celtics rivalry. I think

22
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 1: he answered the bell, you know, I think the bell

23
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 1: was ringing. There was trying to talk down on j

24
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:15,200
Speaker 1: T a little bit. Uh you know, Jalen Brown is

25
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 1: no longer even a Robin. I think those are two superheroes,

26
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:23,119
Speaker 1: Marvel Carroll characters, uh Dinger assembling and fighting with each other.

27
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 1: There's not like a one Day or one b thing

28
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,039
Speaker 1: right now out of Lebron and a D. I see

29
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 1: the fight, you know, I see a D fighting. It

30
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 1: could be I thought a D would in the middle

31
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:34,480
Speaker 1: of this round, was gonna take you know, a few

32
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,319
Speaker 1: games off here there. He hasn't done that. You know.

33
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:40,039
Speaker 1: It's kind of galvanized Lebron. And as like we talked

34
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:41,959
Speaker 1: about on the show before he had he how he

35
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 1: has to take it from Lebron, and I see him

36
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: taking it. And I see that Laker team fighting. They're

37
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 1: starting to take on some of the mantras at Darvenham

38
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 1: and um it looks like, you know, although you know

39
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 1: a loss is a loss, I think you know, the

40
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 1: Celtics and the Lakers are heading in the right direction

41
00:01:56,720 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 1: for both programs. Uh man. I've whatever thing you said.

42
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 1: I definitely agree with the Tatum and Brown. Uh, you

43
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 1: know they're both Batman's or One's Batman one Superman. These

44
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,840
Speaker 1: guys are incredible. They take turns while also involving the

45
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,639
Speaker 1: rest of their team, which isn't easy to do. Marcus

46
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 1: Smart stepped up huge, hit some big shots. Um, Lakers,

47
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 1: I love their fight. I just knew that over time

48
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 1: wasn't where they wanted to have because they exerted so

49
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 1: much energy to get to that point that they needed

50
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 1: to win it in regulation. And I knew that they

51
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 1: were they They've all looked dead ass tired. Um and

52
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 1: Boston did what they had to do in the fourth quarter.

53
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 1: But I mean, I think for Laker fans, you see,

54
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:35,880
Speaker 1: you know I tweeted this last night. You see potential,

55
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 1: You see hope. Um Russ has bought into his his

56
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 1: role and his playing well. Um, they're going through a

57
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 1: d while Lebron is still able to be his great self.

58
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 1: So UM, I'd be encouraged if I was. Again, there's

59
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: no you know, a loss is a loss, like you said,

60
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 1: but I would be encouraged, um from that performance last night,

61
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 1: just to see that they have that in them still,

62
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 1: and as they continue to build their chemistry, and and

63
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,799
Speaker 1: and and get their ship together. You know they're gonna

64
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 1: be all right. Great Brown and Tatum the highest averaging

65
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 1: duo in the league. Um again, I mean we just

66
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,080
Speaker 1: gave them a lot of praises. But you know, hats

67
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 1: off to these two young guys. You remember, you know,

68
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 1: talking even up to last year and maybe two seasons ago,

69
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:20,640
Speaker 1: was you had to trade one of these guys, You

70
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 1: had to trade Brown to get something else because these

71
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 1: guys couldn't play together. They blocked all that noise out.

72
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,800
Speaker 1: And again are the best duo in the league. And

73
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 1: you know, both option ones on the same team while

74
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 1: while still sharing the ball with the rest of their team.

75
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 1: So I'm excited for this team, man, and and and

76
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 1: the run they can make this year. Absolutely, you just

77
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 1: you said it all right there. They're playing through their

78
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 1: teammates as well. It's not just sometimes it is your turn,

79
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 1: my turn, but in the middle of your turn, my turn, Williams.

80
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: You know, Marcus Smart, other players are getting an opportunity

81
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 1: to express themselves. Absolutely, Man, the Brooklyn nets eight and

82
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 1: two over the last ten. Very impressive, Katie. Over that stretch,

83
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 1: it's thirty points, seven rebounds, six assists. Like shooting during

84
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 1: that stretch. Um, how do you look at Brooklyn now

85
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 1: that the outside noise have society? Uh, these guys are

86
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 1: playing good basketball. Kyrie is playing good basketball. Katie is

87
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 1: being kd Uh. These guys are you know, kind of

88
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,480
Speaker 1: getting their chemistry with with with the guys that were

89
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:21,040
Speaker 1: out before. Uh t J. Warren's back. Um, obviously they're

90
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 1: shooters back. Um. Thoughts on Brooklyn and are you are

91
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 1: you a believer in them yet? Do you still need

92
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,600
Speaker 1: to see more? Just a lot of talent. I think

93
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,040
Speaker 1: we need to see it just a little bit more.

94
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 1: But that's a lot of talent. Kad probably the most

95
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:37,600
Speaker 1: efficient score maybe an NBA history. Definitely Right now, Kyrie

96
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: is getting a chance to, you know, uh, get all

97
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:44,360
Speaker 1: the ship and that's being office played basketball, just come

98
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 1: out and played basketball and not worried about his brand

99
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 1: and you know what I mean, really just going out

100
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 1: there and losing himself on the court. I see Jack

101
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 1: Vonn again kind of similar to the Lakers. I see

102
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 1: a new coach coming in and implementing new ideas and

103
00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:00,040
Speaker 1: a new culture so to speak for for Brooklyn, and

104
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,000
Speaker 1: they've been through the most thing out of any team

105
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 1: probably in the league the last couple of years. But

106
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 1: I see this team, you know, peeking, They're peeking at

107
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:09,479
Speaker 1: the right time. You know, we're coming after Christmas, you know,

108
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 1: after Christmas, everybody there's another jump in the league before

109
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 1: the All Star Break, and then All Star Break happens,

110
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:16,919
Speaker 1: and then the real league starts showing up. But I

111
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:21,279
Speaker 1: see them peeking or turning up at the right time. Yeah,

112
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: I agree. I think on the boat, the last two

113
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,600
Speaker 1: teams we touched on, I think obviously right now is

114
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:27,839
Speaker 1: just kind of you see what you're getting, to see

115
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,480
Speaker 1: what you have. But you know, we know post All

116
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:32,840
Speaker 1: Star Breakers when that real run starts, and I expect

117
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 1: both these teams to you know, be in the mix.

118
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,040
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if they're contending. I think if one

119
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 1: of these two teams contend, it would be Brooklyn. Um.

120
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 1: That's saying a lot the East is powerful. But like

121
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 1: in like, I agree, they're both trending in the right direction.

122
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 1: But but to that's about n b uh there. They

123
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:52,839
Speaker 1: may may not be a top seed And does anybody

124
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,480
Speaker 1: really want to see Brooklyn or l A if they

125
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:57,479
Speaker 1: get into the tournament at the end of the day

126
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,840
Speaker 1: eight seven, six, whatever it is, is anybody really work

127
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:04,760
Speaker 1: to see. Yeah, yeah at the work the work um

128
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,360
Speaker 1: headed out west to the Grizzlies have won six in

129
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: a row with no bain. Grizzlies are coming uh coming

130
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,239
Speaker 1: out party was last year, you know, second in the West.

131
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 1: Currently their second in the West. Um, what do you

132
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 1: see in this team? Do you do you see this

133
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 1: team as a real Western Conference contender? Um? Do they

134
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 1: need bang? Do they need another piece? Or do you

135
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,600
Speaker 1: like what they have? They need bang? They need all

136
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 1: their pieces and they might not they might need another piece.

137
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:33,159
Speaker 1: We don't know what that piece is. We don't know

138
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 1: who's sitting at home, or who's gonna be on the

139
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 1: waiver wire or you know who's gonna move around and

140
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,920
Speaker 1: they trade theirline. But they are, you know, the class

141
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 1: of the West. Right now. The youth movement is taking

142
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,839
Speaker 1: charge of the beginning of the setting. And I think

143
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:51,159
Speaker 1: with the Pelicans, with the Grizzlies, we're seeing what the youth,

144
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 1: the exuberance of youth brings to you in in today's league.

145
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,480
Speaker 1: I think these two teams, you know, both of them

146
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,200
Speaker 1: could use a manner to ur a mover to but

147
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,720
Speaker 1: right now, I mean they're jamming, you know, as long

148
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 1: as they can stay healthy and their top players can

149
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 1: continue to shine into the way that they have. They

150
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 1: might as well. You know, stand packs. Sometimes they're youthful.

151
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 1: They don't know any better. They're just out there hooping.

152
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 1: They're not getting any pressure or any of this other

153
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 1: ship that you know, we talk about, you know, or

154
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 1: the media talks about. So I would stay with this

155
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 1: youth movement. These cultures are doing a good job, and

156
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 1: I would ride this out right until you know the

157
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 1: trade deadline to see it. I would get the specific

158
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 1: piece that I need, though, I would not take a

159
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 1: gamble and just bring in the name just because it's

160
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 1: a name. Yeah, no, I agree with UM. My only

161
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,360
Speaker 1: question with this team is being that true number two

162
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 1: UM in the playoffs or is it Jaren Jackson? I mean,

163
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 1: I think that would be a huge step for both

164
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 1: these guys. Obviously during the ragular season. You know, Ban

165
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 1: is having a career high right now. I've always liked

166
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,080
Speaker 1: Jaren Jackson, But which one of those guys is really

167
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 1: gonna step up and be that other twenty point score

168
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 1: game in the playoffs. If one of those two guys

169
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,040
Speaker 1: can do it, I love this team. Um. If they're not,

170
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,559
Speaker 1: is that what they're missing to be consistent. But again,

171
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 1: this team is different. This team is young, it's fun

172
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 1: and you never really know where you're going to get

173
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 1: it from this team. That way, what what makes them

174
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,520
Speaker 1: so dangerous too? So obviously that Moran is that consistent,

175
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 1: but I want to know who obviously being a step

176
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 1: in that role. He's been injured of late step in

177
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,240
Speaker 1: that role this season, but can he be that piece

178
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:27,360
Speaker 1: during the playoffs with playoffs too, He's a clutch two

179
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,679
Speaker 1: way player in the playoffs, So go to be interesting

180
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 1: to see. They've got a lot of good young pieces. Uh.

181
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:36,079
Speaker 1: Next up, Money Talks, presented to you by money Line,

182
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 1: the only money app you'll ever need. Along with so

183
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 1: much money going on right now, um, I just think

184
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:45,679
Speaker 1: it's so important to have a plan. Money is getting

185
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 1: thrown out to high school kids now and the n

186
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 1: I L stuff and obviously college and then you know

187
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,720
Speaker 1: what kind of money the pros are bringing, so uh,

188
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 1: very important time for people to have an institutional plan

189
00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 1: with this money. Thoughts on that bar institutional plan, you know,

190
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,199
Speaker 1: that's what you have to have nowadays. You've got to

191
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 1: keep your off the court together with social media, you know,

192
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 1: there's an opportunity. Like I said, for you to make

193
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 1: a bag. If he's head high school players can make

194
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,960
Speaker 1: a bag right now, you know, and and make a

195
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 1: decision on where they go to college. You know what

196
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 1: I mean. Really the read that can really control your journey.

197
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,719
Speaker 1: If you can, you know, monetize this situation and learn

198
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,080
Speaker 1: how to take care of yourself and your family, you

199
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 1: can limit a lot of bad decisions that have to

200
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 1: be made during this process. If you're going to college,

201
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,640
Speaker 1: if you're going to the pros, if you're going overseas,

202
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 1: whatever that is. You know, this n I L and

203
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 1: this new institutional thinking of of the way to say

204
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,160
Speaker 1: to invest, to not spend money in the ways that

205
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 1: we did. Um, that's just a new vibe right now.

206
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 1: And it's okay. And I'm I know champion people like

207
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 1: you who in stack myself, who have been transparent into

208
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 1: the things that the mistakes that they made with their

209
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 1: money so that people can learn from those mistake. We

210
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 1: need to pass our information around to our communities. That's

211
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: what's happening around with these young fellows. The world is

212
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:07,680
Speaker 1: being thrown them at their feet, and we have to

213
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,680
Speaker 1: protect them. Buy exactly what you said, giving them the

214
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 1: game so that you can learn how to institutionalize that

215
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:17,080
Speaker 1: money and make it work for them. Yeah, I mean

216
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 1: I'll close up with this. I just think, uh, financial

217
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 1: literacy is cool now, which is great. It wasn't something

218
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,439
Speaker 1: that was talked about when we were coming up, and

219
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 1: obviously we made mistakes. So you know, obviously with us

220
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 1: keeping it real and and and it being cool to

221
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,200
Speaker 1: kind of understand what's going on, kids will be fine

222
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 1: these days. So, uh, that's a rap for Money Talks,

223
00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:37,400
Speaker 1: presented to you by Moneyline, the only money app you'll

224
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,679

00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 1: Highlight Moments. Basically, the line is a digital trading card.

230
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,600
Speaker 1: So gone are the days of the krusty gum inside

231
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,959
Speaker 1: the bubble gum inside the package of the cards and

232
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 1: you losing cards, bending cards, losing value on the cards.

233
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:13,200
Speaker 1: These are digital collectibles that you can access pretty much anywhere,

234
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,320
Speaker 1: so they're always at your fingertips, and I guess this

235
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,320
Speaker 1: is just the new wave. I didn't really know too

236
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:21,720
Speaker 1: much about this. Uh and then they you know, we

237
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 1: were told that they were coming out, so I kind

238
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 1: of started looking it up and it's just super interesting

239
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:26,680
Speaker 1: and super dope. And one thing I do know is,

240
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 1: you know, I have friends that have talked to me

241
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,439
Speaker 1: about it and and and they're actually making real money

242
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 1: off this stuff. So I'm excited to bring them into

243
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 1: the fold and get into their uh, their space because

244
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:39,480

Speaker 1: There into legendary moments, and so are we, So this

248
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:53,720
Speaker 1: is a good partnership. I'm from the old school of

249
00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 1: trading cards the back in magazine and putting the ship

250
00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:00,400
Speaker 1: in the individual things and you know, trade in your

251
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 1: cards and getting over on somebody, because you know, it

252
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 1: was a whole hustle. It was a hustle back then,

253
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 1: you know, when cards was two and three dollars and

254
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:09,560
Speaker 1: you wanted to get the six or seven dollar card

255
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,960
Speaker 1: of the ten dollar car, and it's a hustle, right,

256
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:15,439
Speaker 1: now everything is Yeah, everything is digital right now, so

Speaker 1: they laid, the foundation that they laid, and he's added

288
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,240

00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 1: a good learning experience. Over I've been getting some pretty

309
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 1: positive feedback from it. UM dropped yesterday, so you guys

310
00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:01,200
Speaker 1: can check this out on Apple and Amazon on and again,

311
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 1: and it was it was definitely dope working with you.

312
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 1: Obviously we're working together now you're feeling it for stack,

313
00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 1: but you know we also have you know, what we're

314
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 1: doing behind the scenes to in content production. So uh

315
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 1: thoughts on this and and how we can continue to

316
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,520
Speaker 1: evolve in this space just as an independent film trapping

317
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 1: at the end of the day. We didn't have a big,

318
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:21,720
Speaker 1: huge budget to work with. What we put together I

319
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:25,320
Speaker 1: thought was was beautiful considering we had a great director.

320
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 1: Jocelyn is also the Showtime family in charge of my

321
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,880
Speaker 1: my mood, I'll du a roth uh docs. So we've

322
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 1: always we're not even the same people we were when

323
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:37,320
Speaker 1: we started, right man, And I think we learned so

324
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 1: much about the space, and we're already including other athletes

325
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,960
Speaker 1: and giving them a platform to collaborate with and bring

326
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 1: their production companies with us, so it'll be an athlete

327
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 1: food blue thing moving forward. You know, I can't wait

328
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 1: till we can make our announcements on you know, our

329
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 1: production partners and some of the plans for the series

330
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 1: moving forward. You know, we're athletes, were people of color.

331
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 1: We were up against a lot of boxes and you know,

332
00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 1: and I just want to take my hat off for

333
00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 1: you and thank you again for trust. And that's what

334
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,200
Speaker 1: being a part of this project, because like I said,

335
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 1: you went first, you know, the constraints and everything where

336
00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 1: we worked against what we fought for, still fighting for

337
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 1: to make it the series of all series. Obviously it

338
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,960
Speaker 1: was we welcome the critique because you know, we're in

339
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,640
Speaker 1: the space. We want to make things better. So I'm well,

340
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:25,640
Speaker 1: you know, it was. It was a great experience. It's

341
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: everywhere Apple Voodoo, Uh, you know, to me, Xbox, you know,

00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 1: I'm proud to you. I'm proud to us, and like

347
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 1: I like to give me your feelings about how you

348
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 1: feeling about being in the space. You're in the space.

349
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,200
Speaker 1: But this is you know, this was this is your baby,

350
00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 1: this is our baby. Yeah, you know, I mean it

351
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 1: was obviously it was just learning the ins and outs

352
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:56,680
Speaker 1: of production. Was it was the crazy part, you know,

353
00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:59,240
Speaker 1: working with a small budget and kind of showing improving,

354
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:01,760
Speaker 1: uh you know, throwing up some of my own money

355
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 1: in the back and force and the stops and starts.

356
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,040
Speaker 1: So again, I think it was a great learning experience.

357
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 1: I think we took our knox Um would still be

358
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,000
Speaker 1: able to present, you know, a solid project. And again

359
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 1: to me, you know, with the athletes coming next in

360
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:18,160
Speaker 1: the series and the Revolution series that people were partnering with. Uh,

361
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,639
Speaker 1: we're gonna up our games. So again, excited for everybody

362
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:22,680
Speaker 1: to see it. Make sure you check it out every word.

363
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:26,359
Speaker 1: Gilani said, all right, man, So the NBA decided to

364
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 1: rename awards. Um, we're gonna talk about some of these

365
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:33,959
Speaker 1: name changes. Agree with some, don't agree with some. Um,

366
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:39,400
Speaker 1: but let's close out. Um we're starting with Michael Jordan's

367
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:44,800
Speaker 1: MVP award. Not mad at that, very well, very well done.

368
00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:47,600
Speaker 1: What else are we doing here? Very well play the NBA. Yeah,

369
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,120
Speaker 1: that was a good one. Akim Elijah on Defense Player

370
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,360
Speaker 1: of the Year award, Not mad at that. Rolling ling

371
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:56,919
Speaker 1: came to dream. He's a big the league. He used

372
00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,280
Speaker 1: to be all about bigs. There's a couple of bigs

373
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 1: on this list. But not mad at dream at all. Absolutely.

374
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:07,320
Speaker 1: Next up, Will Chamberlain Rookie of the Year. Not mad

375
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:09,399
Speaker 1: about this one either, could job I mean, will do,

376
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:13,280
Speaker 1: Will do chick. We'll just do yep. Well, he's tough.

377
00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:17,640
Speaker 1: H Next up the one I did not like, With

378
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 1: all drue respect to Mr John have the check the

379
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,560
Speaker 1: six Man of the Year trophy. I don't agree one

380
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 1: bit with this. I think that again, with all due

381
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 1: respect to Mr Havelcheck and when he was able to

382
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,879
Speaker 1: do in his career. Jamal Crawford, Lou Williams, you know,

383
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,520
Speaker 1: the only three time UH six Man of the Year

384
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:39,199
Speaker 1: Award winners. I think they could have did better naming

385
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:42,240
Speaker 1: this award. Considering you have guys that set the bar

386
00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:46,639
Speaker 1: for the award, I have to agree these are the

387
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,719
Speaker 1: logical coach I know, disrespected to have the Check family

388
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 1: and what John have. The check is done for the league.

389
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:54,680
Speaker 1: But it seems like you know, returning and starting to

390
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,639
Speaker 1: highlight some of our you know, more recent players and

391
00:18:57,880 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 1: not that you know some of these haven't checked is

392
00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:01,960
Speaker 1: a litt to older them. Well we're starting, you know,

393
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:04,480
Speaker 1: it's it's time now. You know, those two deserve a

394
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:06,200
Speaker 1: lot of respect for what they did for the six

395
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:08,680
Speaker 1: man awar Um. I haven't seen a lot of have

396
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:10,800
Speaker 1: the Check footage, but I'm surety sure a lot of

397
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 1: the people have seen a lot of Jamal Crawford and

398
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: Lou Williams footage. So I would have to disagree on

399
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 1: having to check six man at the ward here and

400
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 1: I would like to nominate two brothers. How do you feel? Yeah? Agreed, agreed, agreed, agreed, uh, last,

401
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 1: but not least, the most improved award will be named

402
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,720
Speaker 1: the George Mike and Award. Um. I don't really have

403
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,440
Speaker 1: an issue with this, Like I said, Jamal and Lou

404
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:36,960
Speaker 1: jumped out because again they set the bar the only

405
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 1: three time winners. To be honest, not very familiar with

406
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,920
Speaker 1: Mr Mike ins game. But you got to drill any

407
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:44,800
Speaker 1: any time you got to drink, you got the mic.

408
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:49,439
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, So I a'm at. I like. I just

409
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,880
Speaker 1: like the fact that the NBA is starting to put

410
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,560
Speaker 1: some names behind some of the stuff. Um. You know,

411
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:59,200
Speaker 1: I think it may be time to change the logo. Um.

412
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,120
Speaker 1: You know, obviously I posted something the other day about

413
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:03,960
Speaker 1: Kobe possibly actually had copy and pasted what Jamal said.

414
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:05,399
Speaker 1: Jamal was the one that brought it up. But I

415
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,520
Speaker 1: just reposted about Kobe possible being being a logo. You know,

416
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,439
Speaker 1: bron is leaving the NBA soon. What is he gonna be?

417
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 1: Is he gonna be the new lego? No matter if

418
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:15,320
Speaker 1: that is, he gonna get an award named after him?

419
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:19,200
Speaker 1: He should so, Um, I like, uh, I like that

420
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,919
Speaker 1: this kind of stuff is still up in the air. Um.

421
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:26,160
Speaker 1: You know, the NBA's standard is is evolved. So much

422
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:29,200
Speaker 1: since the beginning and since they first you know, came

423
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 1: up with this Jerry West logo, and I think he's

424
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,639
Speaker 1: even on the record saying he doesn't mind it being changed.

425
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,280
Speaker 1: So I just like the fact. Yeah, I like the

426
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,160
Speaker 1: fact that the NBA is evolving and naming awards after

427
00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:43,200
Speaker 1: players and you know, obviously helping their legacy continue to

428
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 1: to live on. So, man, that's a rap. What's go ahead?

429
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,160
Speaker 1: You got something? No, yeah, I was about to echo

430
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:50,919
Speaker 1: what you said. So part of being a part of

431
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:55,800
Speaker 1: the league that's you know, not uh working off antiquated models,

432
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 1: and they're keeping up with the times and you know

433
00:20:57,840 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 1: their fan base and you know the people that actually

434
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,000
Speaker 1: up and watching the game. So it makes me very

435
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:06,920
Speaker 1: proud to be alumni of the National Basketball Association. Less

436
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:10,200
Speaker 1: than five thousand of us on this planet, So I

437
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:14,920
Speaker 1: don't want to very very exclusive club. Uh Man, that's

438
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,720
Speaker 1: a wrap for what's burning. You can catch this check
