WEBVTT - WTF & Soundbytes with Bite!

0:00:00.520 --> 0:00:05.440
<v Speaker 1>Break was breaking down all the biggest NBA storylines. You're

0:00:05.559 --> 0:00:08.320
<v Speaker 1>tuned in, so the heat Check. The Heat Check was

0:00:08.520 --> 0:00:12.040
<v Speaker 1>just a crazy, the best podcast covering all the drama

0:00:12.160 --> 0:00:13.240
<v Speaker 1>around the association.

0:00:15.720 --> 0:00:17.520
<v Speaker 2>This is a segment that you just came up with

0:00:17.680 --> 0:00:22.639
<v Speaker 2>called what the fuck? What the fuck are the Chicago

0:00:22.720 --> 0:00:27.880
<v Speaker 2>Bulls doing? What are they doing? In the Chicago Bulls

0:00:28.000 --> 0:00:30.720
<v Speaker 2>first game in the twenty twenty three season?

0:00:32.320 --> 0:00:35.280
<v Speaker 3>Is it the worst game in NBA history? The worst?

0:00:35.640 --> 0:00:38.680
<v Speaker 3>Not just the worst first game, maybe the worst game period.

0:00:39.000 --> 0:00:43.839
<v Speaker 2>It was so bad the Chicago Bulls already had to

0:00:43.880 --> 0:00:47.280
<v Speaker 2>have a player's meeting, players only meeting where you kick

0:00:47.320 --> 0:00:50.280
<v Speaker 2>out the coach. No staff can be there, the type

0:00:50.280 --> 0:00:53.440
<v Speaker 2>of a meeting you have in like Game fifty seven,

0:00:53.479 --> 0:00:55.800
<v Speaker 2>when you're trying to get the season back on track.

0:00:56.360 --> 0:01:01.880
<v Speaker 3>In Game one, it's gonna be a bumpy It's gonna

0:01:01.880 --> 0:01:05.320
<v Speaker 3>be bumpy ride. We knew this team wasn't doing shit

0:01:05.440 --> 0:01:05.800
<v Speaker 3>this year.

0:01:05.880 --> 0:01:08.200
<v Speaker 2>We knew that, we talked about that. We knew that

0:01:08.240 --> 0:01:09.760
<v Speaker 2>a playing spot was like the ceiling.

0:01:10.000 --> 0:01:12.360
<v Speaker 3>We knew that they knew that. Everyone knew that right.

0:01:12.760 --> 0:01:15.240
<v Speaker 2>We knew they would probably lose to not just better

0:01:15.280 --> 0:01:18.520
<v Speaker 2>teams than them, but probably more organize worse teams than them.

0:01:19.640 --> 0:01:23.839
<v Speaker 3>So when you have a player's only meeting after game one,

0:01:25.640 --> 0:01:26.000
<v Speaker 3>oh my.

0:01:26.040 --> 0:01:29.880
<v Speaker 2>God, how bad does it have to be? Oh my goodness,

0:01:30.160 --> 0:01:33.160
<v Speaker 2>the Thunder. So here's a scoop. Thunder whooped that ass

0:01:33.480 --> 0:01:37.000
<v Speaker 2>right at the crib one twenty four, one oh four.

0:01:37.280 --> 0:01:39.600
<v Speaker 2>This is a team that was also a playing team.

0:01:39.640 --> 0:01:41.920
<v Speaker 3>Last year. Defense was getting.

0:01:41.600 --> 0:01:44.880
<v Speaker 2>Cooked by Shay Shaye. Like I told you, guys thirty

0:01:44.920 --> 0:01:48.520
<v Speaker 2>one points. Towards the end of the game, Nicola Lusevich

0:01:48.720 --> 0:01:52.360
<v Speaker 2>pig Man, he seen fighting with Billy Donovan, the head coach,

0:01:52.760 --> 0:01:57.280
<v Speaker 2>on the sideline after the game. After the beatdown, Billy

0:01:57.280 --> 0:01:59.400
<v Speaker 2>Donovan tries to go to the locker room and lick

0:01:59.440 --> 0:02:00.520
<v Speaker 2>all his boys wounds.

0:02:00.560 --> 0:02:02.200
<v Speaker 3>Pause and they're.

0:02:01.920 --> 0:02:07.160
<v Speaker 2>Already fighting in the fucking locker room, and he's like, ah,

0:02:07.680 --> 0:02:09.799
<v Speaker 2>would you guys prefer me to like not be here,

0:02:09.840 --> 0:02:13.480
<v Speaker 2>And they're like, yeah, fucking dip, take a powder, do

0:02:13.560 --> 0:02:14.520
<v Speaker 2>whatever you're gonna go do.

0:02:16.000 --> 0:02:18.160
<v Speaker 3>The best part, though, was Billy.

0:02:17.880 --> 0:02:20.440
<v Speaker 2>Donovan after the fact, is now trying to convince us

0:02:20.600 --> 0:02:24.800
<v Speaker 2>that that little spat was actually.

0:02:24.800 --> 0:02:26.160
<v Speaker 3>Something we should think is a good thing.

0:02:26.440 --> 0:02:28.880
<v Speaker 2>This is like a good thing for us to build on.

0:02:29.200 --> 0:02:32.800
<v Speaker 2>He said this that would have never happened last year.

0:02:33.639 --> 0:02:36.200
<v Speaker 2>It would have been a quiet group. So the confrontation

0:02:36.400 --> 0:02:40.120
<v Speaker 2>piece is a sign that it's important to them and

0:02:40.160 --> 0:02:41.880
<v Speaker 2>they know we've gotta be better.

0:02:43.520 --> 0:02:44.800
<v Speaker 3>Does anyone actually believe that?

0:02:45.680 --> 0:02:49.600
<v Speaker 2>Does anyone actually believe that a player's only meaning after game.

0:02:49.400 --> 0:02:55.160
<v Speaker 3>One is a good sign of things to come. No.

0:02:55.160 --> 0:02:57.680
<v Speaker 2>No one on the score, which is the local radio station.

0:02:58.000 --> 0:03:00.760
<v Speaker 2>No one is like, good job, bulls. Wait to make

0:03:00.800 --> 0:03:05.040
<v Speaker 2>sure that a bad season doesn't happen after one game.

0:03:06.120 --> 0:03:08.359
<v Speaker 3>No after game one.

0:03:08.560 --> 0:03:12.079
<v Speaker 2>Zach Lavine, notorious chucker, don't give a fuck about nobody

0:03:12.080 --> 0:03:14.880
<v Speaker 2>else but myself is like, oh yeah, our guys don't

0:03:14.919 --> 0:03:15.320
<v Speaker 2>have heart.

0:03:15.960 --> 0:03:18.280
<v Speaker 3>I don't think we play with enough heart. That's on us.

0:03:18.680 --> 0:03:21.840
<v Speaker 2>That's unacceptable. I don't think it's a thing people do

0:03:21.919 --> 0:03:26.639
<v Speaker 2>on purpose. We gotta come together, folks. Zack by the way, Zack,

0:03:27.240 --> 0:03:30.600
<v Speaker 2>you be the one saying this wild. This is blow

0:03:30.680 --> 0:03:34.720
<v Speaker 2>up the bridge bad. This is one of those things

0:03:35.040 --> 0:03:39.440
<v Speaker 2>where you say, I'm not sure any of these dudes

0:03:39.480 --> 0:03:41.680
<v Speaker 2>make it the full season, Like, I just don't think

0:03:41.680 --> 0:03:45.760
<v Speaker 2>they will. You Vouch, by the way, spent all off

0:03:45.800 --> 0:03:49.360
<v Speaker 2>season chirping about his role and after one game is

0:03:49.440 --> 0:03:51.560
<v Speaker 2>mad at Billy Donovan.

0:03:52.680 --> 0:03:55.000
<v Speaker 3>For not having the amount of touches he thought he

0:03:55.040 --> 0:03:55.520
<v Speaker 3>was gonna get.

0:03:56.120 --> 0:04:00.440
<v Speaker 2>Zach Lavine in Game three, had fifty one fuck points

0:04:00.480 --> 0:04:01.680
<v Speaker 2>and zero assists.

0:04:01.960 --> 0:04:04.240
<v Speaker 3>Zero asists in a game.

0:04:04.400 --> 0:04:08.080
<v Speaker 2>I kid you not that they lost by sixteen points

0:04:08.120 --> 0:04:10.680
<v Speaker 2>to the Detroit Pistons, a team that, by the way,

0:04:11.040 --> 0:04:16.680
<v Speaker 2>lost or won only twenty three games last year. DeRozan

0:04:16.720 --> 0:04:19.680
<v Speaker 2>and the Bulls currently are in extension talks and they

0:04:19.680 --> 0:04:23.279
<v Speaker 2>are very far apart. Meanwhile, Pat Williams is looking for

0:04:23.279 --> 0:04:25.560
<v Speaker 2>a two hundred million dollar extension and he is currently

0:04:25.640 --> 0:04:32.880
<v Speaker 2>averaging three point seven points per game. Bulls, Bulls, you

0:04:32.960 --> 0:04:36.200
<v Speaker 2>had one job, just one. Like I said, we knew

0:04:36.200 --> 0:04:38.800
<v Speaker 2>you weren't gonna be good. The only job you had

0:04:39.160 --> 0:04:43.840
<v Speaker 2>was to not be an utter and ridiculous embarrassment to

0:04:43.880 --> 0:04:47.680
<v Speaker 2>your fan base, to your city, to the league. And apparently,

0:04:47.720 --> 0:04:51.200
<v Speaker 2>after one game, that is not a goal that you

0:04:51.240 --> 0:04:55.520
<v Speaker 2>can accomplish. So yeah, what the fuck are the Chicago

0:04:55.560 --> 0:05:00.480
<v Speaker 2>Bulls doing? Oh my goodness, let's move forward. We gotta

0:05:00.480 --> 0:05:05.240
<v Speaker 2>get to the top SoundBite from the week. This SoundBite

0:05:05.560 --> 0:05:09.840
<v Speaker 2>was so low key shady, It is so shady, just

0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:12.880
<v Speaker 2>so great. I wish I could give you the video

0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:16.120
<v Speaker 2>of it, but it's funny for a bunch of different reasons.

0:05:16.240 --> 0:05:19.920
<v Speaker 2>It made me, though, want to be like, oh oh damn,

0:05:20.560 --> 0:05:21.600
<v Speaker 2>it was like that.

0:05:23.360 --> 0:05:25.320
<v Speaker 3>Really I didn't even know that.

0:05:25.920 --> 0:05:28.280
<v Speaker 2>All right, So the Sixers and the Raptors, right, they

0:05:28.320 --> 0:05:32.680
<v Speaker 2>play this week this weekend, and so it's Nick Nurse

0:05:33.120 --> 0:05:38.520
<v Speaker 2>coaching Philly against his old team Toronto, back in Toronto.

0:05:38.200 --> 0:05:40.880
<v Speaker 3>Old home week. Right, what's up coach?

0:05:41.000 --> 0:05:41.120
<v Speaker 2>Ay?

0:05:41.320 --> 0:05:41.840
<v Speaker 3>Good to see?

0:05:41.960 --> 0:05:42.159
<v Speaker 4>Uh?

0:05:42.279 --> 0:05:45.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you know, you know, it goes like everybody's a

0:05:45.680 --> 0:05:48.880
<v Speaker 2>little nicey nicy, friendly friendly. Usually when a player moves on,

0:05:49.040 --> 0:05:51.320
<v Speaker 2>coach moves on, you know, probably with like Jannis and Bud.

0:05:51.360 --> 0:05:54.480
<v Speaker 3>Whenever you Bud gets a job, it's like, hey, how

0:05:54.520 --> 0:05:55.920
<v Speaker 3>you been, how's your family?

0:05:55.960 --> 0:05:58.359
<v Speaker 2>Do it? Even people you can't fucking stand, it's like

0:05:58.400 --> 0:05:59.200
<v Speaker 2>you good, you good?

0:05:59.240 --> 0:05:59.640
<v Speaker 4>What's up?

0:05:59.680 --> 0:05:59.960
<v Speaker 2>What's up?

0:06:00.160 --> 0:06:01.440
<v Speaker 3>You good? How's the lady?

0:06:01.600 --> 0:06:01.800
<v Speaker 2>Oh?

0:06:01.880 --> 0:06:04.520
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, yeah, good times, good times? Right?

0:06:05.560 --> 0:06:09.920
<v Speaker 2>No, no, not in this case for Nick Nurse and

0:06:09.960 --> 0:06:13.960
<v Speaker 2>his former players and Rookie of the Year, specifically Scottie Barnes.

0:06:14.480 --> 0:06:14.800
<v Speaker 3>Uh.

0:06:14.839 --> 0:06:16.599
<v Speaker 2>For the first time that the two had seen each

0:06:16.600 --> 0:06:20.200
<v Speaker 2>other since Messi U Juri straight clip. Nick Nurse like

0:06:20.240 --> 0:06:23.080
<v Speaker 2>a mob boss after the dog shit season.

0:06:22.760 --> 0:06:23.120
<v Speaker 3>That they had.

0:06:23.960 --> 0:06:28.640
<v Speaker 2>The media, of course, had some things to ask Nick Nurse.

0:06:29.160 --> 0:06:32.720
<v Speaker 2>They wanted to know, Nick, were you unhappy with the.

0:06:32.640 --> 0:06:35.320
<v Speaker 3>Way that things ended? All all getting fired?

0:06:35.960 --> 0:06:38.679
<v Speaker 2>And this is not the clip of the week because

0:06:38.720 --> 0:06:41.160
<v Speaker 2>he answered it like a professional.

0:06:41.240 --> 0:06:47.119
<v Speaker 4>It definitely was no doubt about it. Uh, just weird

0:06:47.160 --> 0:06:49.719
<v Speaker 4>in general being being here the last couple of days

0:06:50.839 --> 0:06:54.040
<v Speaker 4>in the city. But it's good, good, good.

0:06:54.160 --> 0:06:54.280
<v Speaker 2>Uh.

0:06:54.800 --> 0:06:56.280
<v Speaker 4>I don't need to tell everybody in here how great

0:06:56.320 --> 0:06:57.880
<v Speaker 4>the city is. It was fun to walk around a

0:06:57.880 --> 0:07:01.920
<v Speaker 4>little bit and catch the vibe again and and all

0:07:01.920 --> 0:07:05.000
<v Speaker 4>that stuff. So lots of ten great years, lots of

0:07:05.000 --> 0:07:05.640
<v Speaker 4>great memories.

0:07:05.839 --> 0:07:09.960
<v Speaker 2>Coach, Was it disappointing the way that it ended in Toronto?

0:07:12.280 --> 0:07:15.640
<v Speaker 4>No, I'm fine. I think it ended the way it ended.

0:07:16.520 --> 0:07:19.200
<v Speaker 1>It came at that point after I.

0:07:19.120 --> 0:07:22.120
<v Speaker 4>Don't think so. I don't think so. They could have

0:07:22.160 --> 0:07:25.440
<v Speaker 4>win either way, probably play a little better towards the

0:07:25.440 --> 0:07:28.440
<v Speaker 4>playoffs or playing or whatever. Who knows. But I think

0:07:28.520 --> 0:07:30.840
<v Speaker 4>I think, like I said when I left, many times,

0:07:30.840 --> 0:07:33.080
<v Speaker 4>as it was, it felt like it was time, probably

0:07:33.120 --> 0:07:35.280
<v Speaker 4>both sides. And it still feels that way to me

0:07:35.320 --> 0:07:37.520
<v Speaker 4>just looking around. I look at them play and they

0:07:37.520 --> 0:07:41.559
<v Speaker 4>look like they're playing great and I'm really enjoying coaching

0:07:41.600 --> 0:07:45.640
<v Speaker 4>this team, you know, so I think everybody's where they're

0:07:45.640 --> 0:07:46.200
<v Speaker 4>supposed to be.

0:07:46.440 --> 0:07:49.960
<v Speaker 2>I look around and I still see that they're the

0:07:50.040 --> 0:07:54.200
<v Speaker 2>same same motherfuckers I left and when I left at Gronto,

0:07:54.440 --> 0:07:57.000
<v Speaker 2>you know, like I still see them being them. You know,

0:07:57.840 --> 0:08:00.680
<v Speaker 2>He's like kind of glad that I'm gone now. A

0:08:00.720 --> 0:08:03.920
<v Speaker 2>lot there that was not said, that was said. You know,

0:08:03.960 --> 0:08:06.920
<v Speaker 2>we could just deconstruct this all day. But what was

0:08:06.960 --> 0:08:12.000
<v Speaker 2>even funnier, though, was my man was my man, Scottie Barnes.

0:08:12.640 --> 0:08:15.400
<v Speaker 3>Now this this is the shady ship we look for.

0:08:15.840 --> 0:08:20.920
<v Speaker 2>Naturally, A reporter asked Scotty. Scotty, how was it, senior

0:08:20.960 --> 0:08:21.840
<v Speaker 2>former coach.

0:08:22.960 --> 0:08:25.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I didn't. I didn't really look over

0:08:25.080 --> 0:08:29.000
<v Speaker 1>there that much, you know, focus on the game. But

0:08:29.240 --> 0:08:36.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, I don't know, good to see him like this?

0:08:37.640 --> 0:08:42.280
<v Speaker 1>Did you change their words or not? Really? Like I

0:08:42.280 --> 0:08:44.959
<v Speaker 1>barely saw him, to be honest, I never really see

0:08:45.080 --> 0:08:48.720
<v Speaker 1>when he walked in. I wasn't really looking over there,

0:08:49.080 --> 0:08:50.679
<v Speaker 1>really just focus on the game, trying to win.

0:08:51.080 --> 0:08:55.160
<v Speaker 2>Goodness see um, I guess goodness see them.

0:08:55.480 --> 0:08:57.000
<v Speaker 3>I don't buck with you.

0:08:57.920 --> 0:09:03.680
<v Speaker 2>This is just sit very shady, shocking though, It's very

0:09:03.679 --> 0:09:05.720
<v Speaker 2>shocking to me that Scottie Barnes would feel this way,

0:09:05.760 --> 0:09:10.679
<v Speaker 2>considering that Nick Nurse played him all five positions, probably

0:09:10.760 --> 0:09:14.640
<v Speaker 2>forty minutes a night, and then publicly bus tossed him

0:09:14.920 --> 0:09:17.880
<v Speaker 2>if he wasn't making threes. So I am just absolutely

0:09:17.960 --> 0:09:21.080
<v Speaker 2>shocked that it wasn't a reunion. I know, though, like

0:09:21.120 --> 0:09:24.040
<v Speaker 2>in all seriousness, that it was like not a great

0:09:24.200 --> 0:09:27.440
<v Speaker 2>relationship between Nick and his players, and that the young

0:09:27.480 --> 0:09:31.720
<v Speaker 2>guys specifically really didn't like Nick. But like, damn, when

0:09:31.760 --> 0:09:36.840
<v Speaker 2>you say I didn't even notice him, I was focusing

0:09:36.920 --> 0:09:39.280
<v Speaker 2>on me and it was good to see him.

0:09:40.240 --> 0:09:43.160
<v Speaker 3>I guess then it was not good to see him.

0:09:43.440 --> 0:09:44.000
<v Speaker 3>It was not.

0:09:44.520 --> 0:09:47.040
<v Speaker 2>It was not anything to see him. By the way,

0:09:47.080 --> 0:09:52.600
<v Speaker 2>go find a clip on Twitter smirk perfect clearly not

0:09:52.920 --> 0:09:56.280
<v Speaker 2>really saying everything he wanted to say, You get what

0:09:56.400 --> 0:09:58.760
<v Speaker 2>he was trying to say. On top of that, the

0:09:58.800 --> 0:10:03.040
<v Speaker 2>babushka look on top was chef's kiss.

0:10:03.559 --> 0:10:05.800
<v Speaker 3>The guy was fully fully.

0:10:05.640 --> 0:10:09.280
<v Speaker 2>Audrey Hepburn getting into the convertible with the silk scarf

0:10:09.360 --> 0:10:13.040
<v Speaker 2>over her head, into the whole ass, Oh my goodness.

0:10:13.080 --> 0:10:15.720
<v Speaker 2>Just all she needed was all he needed was the

0:10:15.880 --> 0:10:19.240
<v Speaker 2>cigarette with the clip on. You know what I'm trying

0:10:19.280 --> 0:10:22.079
<v Speaker 2>to say, God, damn it, what an iconic moment from

0:10:22.280 --> 0:10:27.760
<v Speaker 2>this league.
