Speaker 1: It definitely is. On today's show, we're going to touch

12
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:47,000
Speaker 1: on the latest NBA news, Brogden Westbrook, some extension talk.

13
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 1: We're going to continue our season preview series by answering

14
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:53,720
Speaker 1: some burning questions, and we'll end with some rapid fire fun.

15
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 1: That's why we're calling it the Drop. Okay, absolutely been

16
00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 1: a while since we've had some rapid fire fun. But first,

17
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 1: ye I guess it's official. We're now on substack.

18
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:04,200
Speaker 4: That's right.

19
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,000
Speaker 1: As many of you know, No Dunks has gone independent

20
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:09,600
Speaker 1: this season, so we're sort of on our own that

21
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,280
Speaker 1: we have some big news coming on Monday's pod. But

22
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:15,600
Speaker 1: because we're independent. We've decided to start a No Dunk's

23
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:18,320
Speaker 1: substack page for the first time ever, to have like

24
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: a home base for a bunch of weird and random

25
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 1: ideas that we've always wanted to try. We already have

26
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 1: tasks sharing his Blue Jays thoughts on the substack page.

27
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 1: We're gonna have a weekly what we Like Recommendations posts.

28
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:36,200
Speaker 1: First one goes live today, TK that's right. We're going

29
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 1: to plan on dissecting old content that we've done over

30
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 1: the last twenty years. We'll scour the chat for beach

31
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 1: step in questions, things of that nature. Figured this was

32
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 1: a great way for us to sort of spitball, test

33
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 1: run I guess new ideas and if you want a

34
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 1: way for you, the viewer, the listener to support us

35
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 1: as a brand right now. Five bucks a month, that's it,

36
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 1: and even better than that, fifty dollars a year for

37
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 1: a subscription. I'd save a couple months there. And for

38
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 1: the absolute sicko of sickos, we got the tier called

Speaker 2: I'd loved how people are already jumping in, chiming in already.

51
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,080
Speaker 2: It's been great for the first couple of days. Although

52
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:48,359
Speaker 2: I will have one little complaint about substack. I recorded

53
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 2: a Blue Jays take after them tying the alcs, and

54
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 2: they cut off the first ten fifteen to twenty seconds

55
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 2: of my video. Maybe it was thirty seconds. I had

56
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 2: three questions to start that video. I was doing the

57
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 2: whips like the Blue Jays for like twenty seconds. I

58
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 2: was asking if Max Scherzer is the coolest, coolest forty

59
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 2: one year old in the world, if Blue Jays are

60
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:13,080
Speaker 2: going to the World Series, if cooler temperatures mean baseball

61
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 2: players spit less.

62
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 1: But it got cut off.

63
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,639
Speaker 2: I got cut off. Just chopped it anyway. Blue Jays

64
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 2: are great, and I'm enjoying Substacks. So I talked about

65
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:25,400
Speaker 2: the Blue Jays. JD's got a Blue Jays hat on

66
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 2: right now, just one hat, though, What do you mean

67
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:29,079
Speaker 2: just one hat?

68
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 4: Well, you were wearing two hats in your foot.

69
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 2: I came. I had finished a workout. I had a

70
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 2: backwards hat on and I just didn't want to take

71
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 2: it out, so the Blue Jay's hat on top of it.

72
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 1: This is the tight crazy contact getting on our subject page.

73
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 2: But yeah, I was going to walk around the gym

74
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 2: and just record myself and with a hat, double hat

75
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 2: recording in the gym too loud. No, it was outside

76
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 2: the gym anyway, because I was I was talking about

77
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 2: the beautiful conditions of the alcs. It was beautiful outside.

78
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 2: I thought it was all tying in anyway, Moving on.

79
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 1: Why don't you set up the camera show us what

80
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 1: you're squatting nowadays?

81
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 2: I don't squat a lot. Oh okay, Oh I'm not

82
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 2: a player. Nice anyway.

Speaker 1: you want to after what are wet? You're twenty here

91
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,040
Speaker 1: of a whole bunch of content, and let's continue it

92
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:44,279
Speaker 1: with six burning questions. Jd oh, yeah you are.

93
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 4: We're rocking hard.

94
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 1: Okay, six burning questions? I know what you're thinking. Wasn't

95
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,120
Speaker 1: it seven last year? We got a lot to talk about,

96
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: all right, First one here though, which player has the

97
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 1: most to prove this season? Who wants to get it

98
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,280
Speaker 1: started with this one? You got a good h I do?

99
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:06,919
Speaker 2: I do, But I just babbled about baseball and spitmin.

100
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 1: Mass snitting all right, tku spit all right, nice, Let's

101
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 1: talk about Trey Young.

102
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 4: It's now or never. Big shout out to my guy Elvis.

103
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,599
Speaker 4: Year eight for Trey Young. He's won two playoff series.

104
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 4: They came in the same year, twenty twenty one. Nothing since.

105
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 4: No extension. They've kind of agreed on that with the

106
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 4: Atlanta Hawks. He's got a player option for next season,

107
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 4: or he can become an unrestricted free agent. This is

108
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 4: the best team we've seen from a construction standpoint, at

109
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 4: least around Trey Young. They put shooters around him, They've

110
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,920
Speaker 4: got length on defense, They've got a lot of depth.

111
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 4: They got big guys. You know, Porzingis as a starter

112
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 4: and Yaka Conglu could be a starter on a lot

113
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:51,159
Speaker 4: of different teams. Even Luke Canard is like a decent

114
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,359
Speaker 4: rotation player that they brought in towards the end of

115
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,280
Speaker 4: the season. So the team is beefed up. We've talked

116
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,840
Speaker 4: about them for years being a forty one and forty

117
00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 4: one team. They had that crazy stretch where they were

118
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 4: never a game or blow five hundred, and if they

119
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,200
Speaker 4: get to five hundred this year, that's a disappointing season

120
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,480
Speaker 4: for the Hawks. So I think it's all on Trey Young.

121
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:13,040
Speaker 4: The guy is an all NBA level talent. He's one

122
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,480
Speaker 4: of the best offensive players in the league. He's going

123
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,160
Speaker 4: to be at the top of the assist board this season,

124
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:22,719
Speaker 4: even though there's a lot more scoring talent around in Atlanta.

125
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 4: So he's got the opportunity to play his best style

126
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 4: of basketball. He has to give a little bit of

127
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:29,800
Speaker 4: an effort on the defensive end. I thought he did

128
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 4: that last year. I thought he was more unselfish. Last year.

129
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 4: It was the best team version of Trey Young that

130
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 4: we've seen. Now they need him to be the number

131
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:41,040
Speaker 4: one guy and a great teammate, and even if he's

132
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 4: the weak league on defense, don't be that weak of

133
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:46,000
Speaker 4: a link. So there's a lot of hope, a lot

134
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,360
Speaker 4: of optimism for the Hawks. Great time to be a

135
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 4: Hawks fan right now, before the season has actually started.

136
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,839
Speaker 4: They just got to perform, And it comes down to

137
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:57,920
Speaker 4: Trey Young most realistically, because the other guys are good.

138
00:06:57,960 --> 00:06:59,719
Speaker 4: But if Trey Young goes down with an injury, if

139
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 4: he had as a down season, if he shoots thirty

140
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 4: three percent from three, the Hawks aren't really going to

141
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 4: do anything. But they should be a top four team

142
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 4: in the East. They should at least be thinking they're

143
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 4: going to win a playoff series. And I know that

144
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 4: they have hope for something more than just getting into

145
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 4: the playoffs, winning one series and then getting bounced. This

146
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 4: is a team that certainly thinks they've got a chance

147
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 4: at the conference finals. So a lot of that is

148
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 4: on Trey Young's shoulders. If he's able to play and

149
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 4: play well this season, he gets a big time contract, right.

150
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 1: Were you shocked at all that they have Basically, like

151
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 1: Trey said that Tray are Tray, that the Hawks and

152
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 1: Ice Tray are not going to agree here to a

153
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,920
Speaker 1: contract extension before the start of this regular season and

154
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:39,720
Speaker 1: sort of play it out and see how it goes.

155
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 1: Pre shocked that they.

156
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 2: I think from Ansie Salle's seat in the front office

157
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 2: of the Atlanta Hawks, it makes sense just to see

158
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 2: not only what Tray's going do you just and the

159
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 2: entire roster is going to do. And so I think

160
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 2: it's important that they play it for a year. And

161
00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,920
Speaker 2: I don't think I don't think it's a shock. I

162
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 2: think it's smart right to see what they can do. Yes,

163
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 2: depending on it sort of depends on the chemistry that

164
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 2: everybody has. But yeah, I think Anci Sela is being smart.

165
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 2: Even with all these transactions, like Kristaps Porzingis has just

166
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 2: signed for one more deal, I don't think they have

167
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 2: really committed for a long term period. So I think

168
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 2: giving Trey a ton of money would just just kind

169
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 2: of cripply a little bit. Yeah, So that's that's a

170
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 2: smart thing. I'm looking forward to Trey just passing to

171
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,480
Speaker 2: everybody the good thing about Trey is even if he

172
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 2: isn't having super efficient numbers out there, like last year

173
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 2: not a super efficient season, but now with all this

174
00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 2: talent around him and hopefully a hal healthy Jalen Johnson,

175
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,199
Speaker 2: he doesn't have to be all that efficient. Really, it's

176
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:47,560
Speaker 2: about him assisting and being an average defensive layer because

177
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 2: the defense is so good around.

178
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 1: It's important to note that Trey Young will still be

179
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:53,839
Speaker 1: eligible to extend with the Hawks, just because it's not

180
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 1: going to happen before the start of the regular season.

181
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 1: He is set to make forty six million dollars this season.

182
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 1: He has a forty nine million dollar par in twenty

183
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:04,320
Speaker 1: six twenty seven, so if he declines that option, Jung

184
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:06,960
Speaker 1: would become an unrestricted free agent for the first time

185
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:09,120
Speaker 1: in his career. But yeah, they're going to play it out.

186
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,280
Speaker 1: I'm already on record here. I'm agreeing with you, Trey.

187
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 1: Like Treyjung, this has to work, and if it doesn't,

188
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:15,839
Speaker 1: I think this is the end of the Trey Young

189
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 1: experience with the Atlanta Hawks. And what does making it

190
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 1: work mean? Yeah, probably at least top five. You'd love

191
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 1: to see home court advantage, a playoff series win or

192
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 1: to a stepping stone here to like being a competent

193
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,199
Speaker 1: franchise again, because if they're five hundred or below, then

194
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 1: it's then it's over. And then you I think, have

195
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,240
Speaker 1: at least determined here in Atlanta. He can never be

196
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 1: sort of the lead guy to take a sort of

197
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,560
Speaker 1: far and then you maybe move off of him. But that's,

198
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 1: you know, depending on how they play.

199
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I think the rest of the contract situations

200
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,319
Speaker 4: are kind of interesting because Porzingis is planned for our contract.

201
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 4: Dyson Daniels, that doesn't look like they're going to come

202
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:55,040
Speaker 4: to a rookie extension before the season. He's coming up

203
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:57,559
Speaker 4: close to the deadline. They say he wants thirty million

204
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 4: dollars a year. He had a great year last year.

205
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 4: There was his first real good season in the NBA.

206
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 4: I mean, if you care about Luke Canard, he's playing

207
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:06,959
Speaker 4: for a contract as well. So there are guys who

208
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 4: are motivated, but they're all getting thrown together for the

209
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:12,440
Speaker 4: first time. They have to build chemistry on the fly

210
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 4: and they have to like play to their potential. So

211
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:17,320
Speaker 4: there's a lot of pressure I think on a lot

212
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 4: of the Hawks here because they could look like a

213
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 4: totally different team next year. Or they could look like

214
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 4: a team on the rise heading in the next season

215
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 4: as well.

216
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 2: All Right, I think they're being smart and not putting

217
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 2: all these pieces together now. They don't want to be

218
00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 2: the Toronto Raptors, really paying to be an average team,

219
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 2: in paying this guy thirty and this guy thirty five

220
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:34,679
Speaker 2: and this guy forty. Jill Johnson is the only guy

221
00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:37,839
Speaker 2: that they really signed for a long term deal at

222
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:42,719
Speaker 2: a good amount, a good high amount. So I'm optimistic

223
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:46,760
Speaker 2: to watching them. I know people ridiculed, especially me, after

224
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,880
Speaker 2: we did the Tearmaker and that the Atlanta Hawks were

225
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:52,319
Speaker 2: not a lock for the playoffs in the Eastern Conference.

226
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 2: If they are going to do anything, it's going to

227
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 2: be this season. They should. They absolutely should be a

228
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 2: lock because of at the Eastern Conferences and how much

229
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 2: talent this Alandahawks team has.

230
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,680
Speaker 1: Okay, so Trey jung On basically everybody's list here. Who

231
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 1: else do you have as a player that needs to

232
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:09,680
Speaker 1: prove something this season?

233
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:13,840
Speaker 2: I have Miles Turner because I do think his play

234
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:15,720
Speaker 2: and what he does in the locker room and on

235
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:19,839
Speaker 2: the floor is important to Yanistead Kupo's future in Milwaukee.

236
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 2: I think there will be an end to Yanni's in

237
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 2: Milwaukee if this team just falls apart. And I know

238
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 2: it's a lot on Miles Turner, who's not a number

239
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:32,800
Speaker 2: one score or anything like that, but when Yannis does

240
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 2: not play, which will happen this season, Miles Turner just

241
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:40,719
Speaker 2: has to score a good amount. Also, he just has

242
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 2: to take a lot of pressure off Yannistadakopo defensively and

243
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 2: be out there. And he also just has to be

244
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 2: a great locker room guy to bring this team together

245
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 2: like he was able to bring the Indiana Pacers together.

246
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,440
Speaker 2: He was really good at that. So there's just a

247
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 2: lot on his shoulders. I do think if the Milwaukee

248
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 2: Bucks don't win a playoff series, this could be it.

249
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:04,680
Speaker 2: We are seeing Yanni Center's thirties. Here a guy who

250
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:09,280
Speaker 2: misses twenty percent, let's say about twenty games a season

251
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:11,600
Speaker 2: or so. That's high, but you know that much like,

252
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:15,320
Speaker 2: it's not gonna be the thirties when he's just gonna

253
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 2: blame more So, I think, as loyal as he is,

254
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:24,040
Speaker 2: as difficult it is for John Horst and Milwaukee Bucks

255
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 2: to make other moves because they are kind of limited

256
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,880
Speaker 2: to do things around Miles Turner and yes, end Kubo,

257
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,800
Speaker 2: this is sort of it, you know. He He's tried

258
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:35,760
Speaker 2: multiple times with the Drew Holiday and then the Dame

259
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 2: and now Miles Turner. It just feels like we're getting

260
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 2: close to it. They got to win a playoff series

261
00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,880
Speaker 2: because what else are they going to do, and they

262
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 2: just have to get there again. The Pacers, and what

263
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 2: was so good about them was that frickin' locker room.

264
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,160
Speaker 2: They're playing for each other. Even though they start off

265
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,080
Speaker 2: poorly last year, they got it together. And that's what

266
00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 2: the Bucks have to do. And I think Miles Turner

267
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,680
Speaker 2: can do it, you know, defensively, offensively, but also just

268
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 2: locker room. So a lot on his shoulders. Yeadie's future

269
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 2: is on Miles Turner's shoulders. Yes, and no, you know

270
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:08,320
Speaker 2: it's a little much, yeah, boy, because he can't he's

271
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,559
Speaker 2: not that He's not that guy. He's not that guy.

272
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's topped out of eighteen points per game.

273
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's not so much. I mean, that's why

274
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 2: I'm sort of lumping it all together, because we know

275
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 2: Miles Turner ain't going to score twenty per game, but

276
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:23,480
Speaker 2: somehow he's got to be that guy. Just bring this

277
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 2: team together and then get a healthy team to round

278
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 2: one of the playoffs where they win. So I think

279
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,960
Speaker 2: Giannis has to go into the playoffs super duper healthy.

280
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:35,440
Speaker 2: He doesn't want to, you know, try and shoot twenty

281
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:37,319
Speaker 2: five times in game, twenty times a game. That should

282
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,559
Speaker 2: not be him. That should come down and yeah, yehnis is.

283
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:42,840
Speaker 2: I mean things kind of have to work out perfectly,

284
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 2: Like Ryan Rollins has to come in and be him,

285
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,040
Speaker 2: Kevin Porter Junior has to come in and be him

286
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:49,719
Speaker 2: as a defensive offensive mix up. So there's just a

287
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 2: lot of bodies here. But Turner, I think, ye know,

288
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:55,080
Speaker 2: in multiple types of ways is important.

289
00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:57,199
Speaker 1: I got two more star names to add to this list.

290
00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:02,559
Speaker 1: Get your reaction to Joelle embiid. It'd be nice. I mean,

291
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:04,600
Speaker 1: I know it feels like everyone's just completely giving up

292
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: on him. He played thirty nine games two seasons ago,

293
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:11,680
Speaker 1: just nineteen games last season. They're saying he's looking okay, say,

294
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,040
Speaker 1: and he's looking healthy here coming into camp, but yeah,

295
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:17,880
Speaker 1: expectations are at the bottom sort of around him, around

296
00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:19,520
Speaker 1: the team. We just learned Paul George is not gonna

297
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,640
Speaker 1: be ready for the opener. But it'd be nice to

298
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 1: get Joelle and beid back on the floor for six

299
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:26,440
Speaker 1: or two. Yeah, And so what could he prove that

300
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 1: he's still good? What could he prove to you this

301
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 1: year that he can play I guess two thirds of

302
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 1: the season.

303
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, proves you can play?

304
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 2: Yeah?

305
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 1: Yeah?

306
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,440
Speaker 4: And then how about Donovan Mitchell big time?

307
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:39,640
Speaker 1: And I'm looking ahead really to the playoffs because we

308
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 1: think the cas will be a great regular season team.

309
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 1: But this guy is squarely in his prime. He's twenty

310
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 1: nine years old. The conferences we've talked about endlessly has

311
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,120
Speaker 1: never looked weaker at the top. Especially it feels like

312
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 1: a two team race for the potential chance to play

313
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:57,360
Speaker 1: in the finals in the Eastern Conference feels like it's

314
00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 1: the Cavs or the Knicks. I mean, then you maybe

315
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 1: talk yourself into a magic Hawks team. Are the Bucks

316
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:05,040
Speaker 1: or the Celtics of Tatum comes back? Whatever? But he

317
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 1: needs to like get over that hump, because this stat

318
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 1: blew my mind. Six players in NBA history to have

319
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:14,080
Speaker 1: played sixty plus playoff games and averaged at least twenty

320
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 1: eight points per game in the postseason Lebron Jordan, Jerry West,

321
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:23,680
Speaker 1: Kevin Durant, Allen Iverson, and Donovan Mitchell and he's the

322
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 1: only one on that list to not make the conference finals.

323
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,680
Speaker 1: You know, Iverson only made it once as well, but

324
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 1: he had that miraculous finals run. So Mitchell he sort

325
00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:34,120
Speaker 1: of needs to get that. He needs to have that

326
00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 1: playoff moment where there's a run in him.

327
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:39,880
Speaker 4: I nine percent agree. He's been the lead guy on

328
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 4: a number one seed in the conference twice already. It

329
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:45,160
Speaker 4: could be a third time this year. He's won four

330
00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:49,400
Speaker 4: playoff series in his career, and it doesn't always feel

331
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:52,880
Speaker 4: like it's his fall and he performs in the playoffs,

332
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 4: but he is the leader of the team and he's

333
00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 4: kind of ducked the allegations. I think, like Joelnbie gets

334
00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:00,680
Speaker 4: dragged for never making a conference finals, Donovan Mitchell's teams

335
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 4: have been much more successful than Joel embiids have and

336
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 4: he still hasn't even sniffed the conference finals.

337
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 1: It's interesting. That's a good point, and there's excuses and

338
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 1: like it's not just because of him and all that.

339
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 1: We all get that, but it sort of has to

340
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 1: happen this season, tasks, it's lined up for him. It

341
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 1: to happen for him too.

342
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, we're just talking about the Atlanta Hawks and

343
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 2: how they haven't put all these pieces together for a

344
00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 2: long time. The Cavs have and this is it. It

345
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,480
Speaker 2: seems like they will disassemble if Donovan can't do it.

346
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:29,920
Speaker 2: Donovan has to rely on the other guys more. I

347
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,640
Speaker 2: think that's very important. I know he did that a

348
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 2: little bit, you know, from his first year in Cleveland,

349
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 2: where he was the guy when everybody got injured and

350
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,400
Speaker 2: he took it upon himself. Last year in the second round,

351
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,320
Speaker 2: he did put it on his back when Evan Mobley

352
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 2: was out, Darius Carlin was out. But I think to

353
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 2: get to that next level, those guys have to be

354
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:54,080
Speaker 2: more involved. Specifically Evan Mobley, yeah, which but we have

355
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 2: talked about, but even our man DeAndre Hunter, anybody from

356
00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 2: the wing can help out a little bit more and

357
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,320
Speaker 2: do more, and so it's not a predictable team where

358
00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 2: they're relying on Donovan Mitchell.

359
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 1: Any other names to add to this list.

360
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 4: John Morant, I think is a huge one, coming off

361
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:11,640
Speaker 4: probably his worst season since he really became a star.

362
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 4: Twenty three points per game last year, lowest since his

363
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 4: second season, seven point three assists, second lowest of his career,

364
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 4: three point seven turnovers, most of his career, shot the

365
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 4: second lowest percentage of his career thirty one percent from three,

366
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,200
Speaker 4: while taking the most threes he ever has. He's won

367
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 4: one playoff series in six seasons. A lot of that

368
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 4: has been injuries and suspensions that took him out. But

369
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 4: like the spotlight I think is on John Morant and

370
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 4: they need him to be back to you all NBA level,

371
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:45,160
Speaker 4: I think for Memphis to make any sort of noise

372
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:48,120
Speaker 4: in the Western Conference, and the way things went down

373
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 4: with Taylor Jenkins last year and the way he was

374
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:52,159
Speaker 4: kind of unleashed right at the end of the season

375
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,399
Speaker 4: when Thomas Isilo took over, you have to be a

376
00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:58,359
Speaker 4: little bit optimistic. You go to Summer League and you

377
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,040
Speaker 4: see more jam Moran jerseys than basically anybody. The guy

378
00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:03,440
Speaker 4: is still a superstar, but he didn't play like a

379
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:04,400
Speaker 4: superstar last year.

380
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:06,960
Speaker 2: Yeah. You walk around and you see his shoes on

381
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:10,840
Speaker 2: some of the best shoes. They're awesome. Yeah, I see

382
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:15,160
Speaker 2: himong grown men everywhere. But from my daughter, they're cool. Yes,

383
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 2: people love him. I will put a little pressure on

384
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 2: Zion Williamson as well, just because that team is Zion Wimpson.

385
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:24,880
Speaker 2: It really is. If they're going to be any good.

386
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:28,160
Speaker 2: He has to play games, and it seems like he

387
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:31,879
Speaker 2: found his way last season physically towards the end of

388
00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:35,120
Speaker 2: the season. So this is it, is it not? I mean,

389
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:38,480
Speaker 2: it sure feels like I know they basically have the

390
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,240
Speaker 2: same team going forward after this coming season, so I

391
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,040
Speaker 2: shouldn't say this is it like they are going to

392
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 2: break it down. But there comes a point, whether it's

393
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:52,560
Speaker 2: twelve months from now next offseason, where he has to

394
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:53,920
Speaker 2: just play basketball.

395
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,199
Speaker 1: All right, which under the radar player will have a

396
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,359
Speaker 1: big impact season. Put another way, from our friends at

397
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 1: the athletic name one player who's relatively just under the radar,

398
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 1: maybe someone that's not an All star, someone who's not

399
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,639
Speaker 1: a league wide star, who's an important X factor going

400
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:13,919
Speaker 1: to play a huge role in the team's success or

401
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:17,240
Speaker 1: even failure this season. Who do you have a pecked here?

402
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,880
Speaker 2: Reed Shepherd of the Houston Rockets is really important. When

403
00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,280
Speaker 2: we start talking about the guards and who are going

404
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:26,800
Speaker 2: to have to replace Fred van Vliet, we start talking

405
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:29,520
Speaker 2: about him, Men Thompson, we start talking about Kevin Urant,

406
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 2: we start talking about Albert and shen Goon as a

407
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,960
Speaker 2: play creator, we forget about the point guards. On this team,

408
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:40,880
Speaker 2: and Fred van vliet Is literally was everything to that team,

409
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:45,240
Speaker 2: and Red Shepherd was in the shadows last season, and

410
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,239
Speaker 2: now he's going to be starting. It sure feels like

411
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 2: I mean, you think about a team that's got to

412
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:53,800
Speaker 2: run a hundred possessions and get into a hundred plays.

413
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:55,879
Speaker 2: He's going to be running the majority of them. I

414
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,399
Speaker 2: would think he's going to start them. Whether it's like

415
00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 2: thirty thirty five and Aaron Holiday comes in for twenty

416
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 2: and a Men Thompson is also twenty. I mean we're

417
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,399
Speaker 2: getting up to seventy five. You know, there's Shenghuni is

418
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 2: going to run ten because he's freaking good, maybe more

419
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 2: than that he was that he was that good. He

420
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:12,640
Speaker 2: can start on the three point line and just make

421
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 2: things happen. I think he's gonna do it more than

422
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 2: Kevin Durant. But this team is really good at slow

423
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:22,200
Speaker 2: playing their young guys. It happened for a Men Thompson,

424
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:26,840
Speaker 2: It's happened for Tari Easton, Jill and Green happened, you

425
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 2: know a little bit, maybe plunged in a little bit

426
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 2: too early, but it also did. They They are really

427
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,320
Speaker 2: good at just trying to get the most out of them. Now,

428
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:38,280
Speaker 2: some some of us play this preseason makes you think, wow,

429
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 2: that guy that we saw in Summer League two years

430
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 2: ago is this guy? I mean, there's pretty cool.

431
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 1: He break game last night against the Locks.

432
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, here's his hes he here's his mid range jumper.

433
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,160
Speaker 2: He burned Luke Canard, who you to talked about earlier,

434
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:52,200
Speaker 2: like he got him.

435
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 4: He was comfortable and going on, Yeah, yeah, I know

436
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:54,879
Speaker 4: that's that.

437
00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:56,919
Speaker 1: He was helped out last night by going at Luke

438
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:57,720
Speaker 1: Canard for sure.

439
00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:00,439
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah he was. He was being smart and that.

440
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:02,440
Speaker 2: But but I bring that up and I bring out

441
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:06,000
Speaker 2: like the relocation threes because the attention will be on

442
00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 2: those other guys I mentioned, So he will have that opportunity.

443
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:11,919
Speaker 2: Is he going to flash back to when we're in

444
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,359
Speaker 2: Summer League and we thought, WHOA, this guy is great

445
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:18,199
Speaker 2: in this in this instance, in this situation, is it

446
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:20,880
Speaker 2: going to be Can he be that guy and not

447
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:22,880
Speaker 2: just the guy who drops forty in G League game?

448
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,480
Speaker 2: Can he be that guy on the big stage? Big question?

449
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:27,200
Speaker 2: But they need him.

450
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:28,840
Speaker 1: It's a good pick for sure.

451
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 4: They needed him to make threes and just be like

452
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,000
Speaker 4: a league average starting point guard. They don't need much

453
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,400
Speaker 4: from Shepherd. No, they don't be better than Aaron Holliday

454
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 4: is basically what he has to do.

455
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:41,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, anything else would being just a bonus for sure.

456
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:42,880
Speaker 1: Who else you got on your list?

457
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 4: DeAndre Ayton to me is like the hugest impact guy

458
00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:49,399
Speaker 4: here for just a random dude. The nicest thing anybody

459
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,200
Speaker 4: said about DeAndre Ayton this so this offseason is he's

460
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:56,639
Speaker 4: better than Jackson Hayes. Like you're talking about the upgrades

461
00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:58,160
Speaker 4: the Lakers made it like, well, they couldn't do worst

462
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:00,359
Speaker 4: they had Jackson Hayes. Apparently now he's trying to get

463
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,200
Speaker 4: his Slovenian citizenship so he can play on the Slovenian

464
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:08,960
Speaker 4: national team with Luka Dancic. Jackson Hayes. Okay, interesting, but yeah, Ayden,

465
00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:13,360
Speaker 4: like he's skilled. You think Aiden sucks fourteen points per game,

466
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:16,400
Speaker 4: ten rebounds per game last season, never takes a free throw,

467
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:20,560
Speaker 4: It's never gonna ever, doesn't matter. He's got great touch.

468
00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:22,760
Speaker 4: You never hear people say anything, Oh, I mean the

469
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:23,840
Speaker 4: Lakers are going to be at the top of the

470
00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 4: league in free throws. I'm not super worried about it

471
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 4: if he takes two free throws a game, because Luca

472
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:30,159
Speaker 4: is gonna take ten and Lebron's gonna take eight. Austin

473
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:31,960
Speaker 4: Reeves gets to the line of time. This is not

474
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:34,600
Speaker 4: a place that Aighton needs to be worrying about getting

475
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:36,879
Speaker 4: to the line. They need him mostly on the glass.

476
00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:40,040
Speaker 4: They finished nineteenth in defensive rebounding last season eight and

477
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:42,159
Speaker 4: can rebound. He's got to be a deterrent at the

478
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,560
Speaker 4: rim because the Lakers are gonna get cooked on the perimeter.

479
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:48,560
Speaker 4: He's gonna have a lot of responsibility on the interior

480
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:50,840
Speaker 4: for the Lakers because he's going to be their main

481
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:54,359
Speaker 4: defensive anchor. We've seen him be good in that role

482
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:56,199
Speaker 4: when he was on the Suns, and we saw him

483
00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:58,560
Speaker 4: not care about it at all playing with the Blazers.

484
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,240
Speaker 4: So it's kind of a last chance saloon for DeAndre

485
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,240
Speaker 4: eight and proved to us why you were the number

486
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:07,879
Speaker 4: one draft pick over your teammate Luka Doncic. And I

487
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:11,359
Speaker 4: don't know, I'm a little I'm a little optimistic for it,

488
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:14,000
Speaker 4: Like I'm not expecting an all star level season for

489
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:16,440
Speaker 4: DeAndre Ayton, but I think by the end of the

490
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:18,920
Speaker 4: year people should be saying, oh, he's a decent starting center.

491
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,640
Speaker 1: It definitely helps when the bar is Jackson Hayes. That's

492
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 1: all you need to clear who's one of my least

493
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 1: favorite players in the league. But yeah, I saw that

494
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 1: stat I guess about eighton and his lack of free

495
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:33,359
Speaker 1: throw shooting. You're right, TK, it may not really matter

496
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:34,960
Speaker 1: on that Lakers team, but it is wild for a

497
00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:38,400
Speaker 1: guy that is a seven footer athletic freak. I mean,

498
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,680
Speaker 1: the guy has built like a mac truck. He averaged

499
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:46,040
Speaker 1: point one three so point thirteen free throw attempts per

500
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:48,800
Speaker 1: field goal attempts last season. For context, only one other

501
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,960
Speaker 1: center in the entire league trailed him in that statistic,

502
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 1: thirty eight year old Al Horford. That makes sense, Al

503
00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 1: Horford not going to the last at all, less sense

504
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 1: a guy like Bill like DeAndre and his inside stuff

505
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:03,680
Speaker 1: like that. But anyway, I had him on my list too.

506
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:06,639
Speaker 1: Was my point. He is very important to the Lakers success.

507
00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 1: I think defensively for sure, on the boards.

508
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:12,280
Speaker 2: We'll see him in the last chance saloon. It's a fun.

509
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 4: Prediction. DeAndre Ayton's free throw attempts double this year.

510
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:19,959
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, I like it.

511
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,239
Speaker 4: Just playing on the Lakers. He'll get the benefit of

512
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 4: the Lakers whistle, Yes he will.

513
00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 2: He probably will twenty seven years old. He always feels

514
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:27,920
Speaker 2: like he's older to me, even though you know he

515
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,560
Speaker 2: hasn't been around a long time. It's just the older

516
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:37,080
Speaker 2: looking face. But also, you know, he's just been as

517
00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:39,160
Speaker 2: you said, he's playing with his number one the number

518
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:43,680
Speaker 2: one draft of that twenty eighteen draft class. He's just

519
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:47,360
Speaker 2: kind of been thrown under the carpet, like we don't

520
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:49,879
Speaker 2: talk about him, and I understand.

521
00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:51,960
Speaker 1: Why, Well that was his doing, not us.

522
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:54,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, So he's.

523
00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,480
Speaker 1: Lived like three NBA lives already, is what I think

524
00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:58,560
Speaker 1: you're getting at to me, at least, why he feels

525
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:01,320
Speaker 1: so old. He's the number one pick, comes in with

526
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,960
Speaker 1: high expectations, but you know, on a crappy team. But

527
00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,480
Speaker 1: then that team, the Suns, turn into this great team,

528
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:08,800
Speaker 1: go to the finals. He plays an important role there,

529
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 1: but then you know, finds his way to the Blazers

530
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:14,480
Speaker 1: and that was a complete mess, to the point where

531
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,440
Speaker 1: they literally just gave up on Yeah, like you said,

532
00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:19,200
Speaker 1: he's twenty seven years old, Like he's a number one pick, fail,

533
00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:21,160
Speaker 1: get out of here, we don't even want you around.

534
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:23,400
Speaker 1: And now he gets this other chance around the Lakers.

535
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:25,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess we just haven't talked about him a lot,

536
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,440
Speaker 2: frankly since Monty Williams and him didn't see eye to

537
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:31,639
Speaker 2: eye in the NBA Finals and that season in twenty

538
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:34,240
Speaker 2: twenty one. It's just a long time ago and we

539
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,760
Speaker 2: haven't had to discuss him other than him not having

540
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:41,880
Speaker 2: a bed when he got to Portland literally just didn't

541
00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:44,240
Speaker 2: have sunature in his room.

542
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:46,480
Speaker 1: Couldn't make it to a game once because of bad weather.

543
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:48,399
Speaker 1: It was icy on the roads. I remember that.

544
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 4: Oh right, Oh yeah, We've dot a lot of excuses

545
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:52,160
Speaker 4: for him on that one.

546
00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:54,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, we've talked to thousands of people at the game.

547
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:56,840
Speaker 1: We've talked a lot or I mean in the past,

548
00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:58,920
Speaker 1: like he had the infamous quote, right, wasn't it eight

549
00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:01,320
Speaker 1: and about like basically got his paycheck the Big Ay

550
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:04,000
Speaker 1: Day and he was like sort of upset. I'm paraphrasing,

551
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 1: of course, but the idea that he just got the

552
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:09,919
Speaker 1: money and then it is like, eh, he's been all

553
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:10,360
Speaker 1: about the bag.

554
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:12,240
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, There's gonna be a lot of misinformation, a

555
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:15,920
Speaker 2: lot of misinformation via tweets, I think just randomly. We've

556
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:19,639
Speaker 2: seen Lebron sitting on the bench beside him in the

557
00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:22,240
Speaker 2: preseason and Lebron sort of looking his way, and here

558
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 2: comes the tweets, Oh he hates them already, because you

559
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,639
Speaker 2: know he's kind of looking that direction. There was the

560
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:32,440
Speaker 2: DeAndre and comment about Luke and Lebron saying I haven't

561
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:34,119
Speaker 2: played with either of them, and he kind of just

562
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,359
Speaker 2: mumbles some stuff, so you don't really hear what he says,

563
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,040
Speaker 2: and so, oh does he hate him. There's so many

564
00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:40,960
Speaker 2: hairstyles that he's gone through. I think in the last

565
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:44,399
Speaker 2: like three months. I don't know, I got dyed hair.

566
00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,240
Speaker 2: Now his goes blonde, but then he does the the

567
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:52,480
Speaker 2: braids a little bit. Anyway, that's not misinformation, that's information.

568
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,199
Speaker 2: But either way, looking forward to it, yeah, he is.

569
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:58,800
Speaker 2: He does have the opportunity. He will have space on

570
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:00,800
Speaker 2: the floor because the guys he's playing with.

571
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,159
Speaker 4: I take su with one thing. I think he has

572
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:06,879
Speaker 4: a young face. Huh. Yeah, really, he's very chrubic to me.

573
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:10,160
Speaker 4: He's like, I see that I got high cheek bones. Yeah,

574
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:12,080
Speaker 4: he kind of looks like I think I've said it before.

575
00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:18,119
Speaker 4: He looks like the Coca Cola Santa Claus in the face. Okay,

576
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 4: but I mean that's not a young man. Yeah, yeah,

577
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,119
Speaker 4: get much older. I think Santa has a young book

578
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:24,560
Speaker 4: as well.

579
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 2: His face is a cherub face. Wow, I think they

580
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:31,920
Speaker 2: kind of sag.

581
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,240
Speaker 4: I think those Let me.

582
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 1: Give you another under the radar player that I think

583
00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:39,199
Speaker 1: could have a big impact on his team success or failure.

584
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 1: Terren Shannon Jr. With the Wolves on my list right

585
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:46,080
Speaker 1: with Nikhil Alexander Walker gone. I think Minnesota and maybe

586
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:49,000
Speaker 1: wisely so, hoping that Shannon Junior can take that leap,

587
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 1: perfectly fitting that role. You've talked a lot about the

588
00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:53,359
Speaker 1: bench task, and you got Devincenzo as your six man

589
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,840
Speaker 1: and all that. Yep, but there's a spot here, there's

590
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 1: an opportunity, and he's shown flashes of brilliance and I

591
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,080
Speaker 1: think they're just hoping that little can get a little

592
00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:04,120
Speaker 1: steady contribution from him. So I'm excited to see him,

593
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:05,280
Speaker 1: which I think is going to be on a good

594
00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:07,240
Speaker 1: Wolves team. They obviously have plans to get back to

595
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:09,119
Speaker 1: the conference finals, get over that hump and all that.

596
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:11,520
Speaker 1: So I have him, and then I'll throw in one

597
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:13,520
Speaker 1: more because I lump together a bunch of guys for

598
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 1: this one. You talked about Miles Turner something to prove,

599
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:20,920
Speaker 1: I guess, and keeping Gian is happy. How about Kevin Porter, Junior,

600
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:24,679
Speaker 1: AJ Green, Ryan Rollins, and Cole Anthony as sort of

601
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 1: important pieces to the bucks success or failure? Here, Lillard

602
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,160
Speaker 1: ran a ton of pick and rolls. Lillard still scored

603
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 1: a lot. I mean it was sort of a weird

604
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,679
Speaker 1: forgotten season in a way because he gets injured at

605
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 1: the end and all that. But like he runs a ton,

606
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:41,400
Speaker 1: like fourthmost in the NBA last year in terms of

607
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:44,560
Speaker 1: pick and rolls, So that gets handed over to again

608
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:48,760
Speaker 1: all these guys I just listed, mainly Porter, Junior, AJ Green.

609
00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:52,360
Speaker 1: He'll be involved in those as well. But they need

610
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 1: I don't know how many of those guys I just

611
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:56,240
Speaker 1: listed need to be like above average and better for

612
00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:58,760
Speaker 1: the Bucks to like have some success. At least two

613
00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,480
Speaker 1: of them. I'm guessing that's important.

614
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, when I was going through the rosters in the preseason,

615
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:10,280
Speaker 4: these guys stuck out to me as the tweet that says,

616
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 4: I've become too important in my job and it's killing me.

617
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,640
Speaker 4: That's like Kevin Porter, Junior, Kyle KU's, McCole Anthony. They

618
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:18,680
Speaker 4: are overtaxed where they are in the hierarchy for the

619
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 4: Milwaukee Bucks. All those guys should be like six and

620
00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,120
Speaker 4: seventh men, and they're the main perimeter options for the Bucks.

621
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:27,400
Speaker 4: If they all hit, then Milwaukee is going to be

622
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:29,680
Speaker 4: way better than I'm anticipating. But if they play like

623
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,320
Speaker 4: they have in their NBA careers, then it might be

624
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:34,920
Speaker 4: a struggle on the offensive end for the Bucks.

625
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I am looking forward to seeing who stands out

626
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:40,440
Speaker 2: from that group. They do need one ball handler to

627
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:41,280
Speaker 2: really stand out.

628
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're hoping it's Kevin Porter Junior.

629
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:47,000
Speaker 2: They are. I would think they keep pushing him. It

630
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:50,000
Speaker 2: feels like he's going to be starting, but it was

631
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 2: kind of tough to watch him against the Pacers in

632
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:53,880
Speaker 2: the playoffs when he was thrown into that role because

633
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:54,800
Speaker 2: Damian Liller was out.

634
00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:56,840
Speaker 3: I don't know.

635
00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:00,120
Speaker 2: Yiannis has a ton of faith in Ryan Rawlins just

636
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 2: starting possessions I think, and being a very good defender.

637
00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:06,880
Speaker 2: I don't know if he's just looking at Ryan Rollins

638
00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 2: offensively and being like, Okay, get us through into the rotation,

639
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:14,240
Speaker 2: into the movements here, and then give me in Miles

640
00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:15,880
Speaker 2: turn of the ball and then we'll figure it out.

641
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:17,680
Speaker 2: But there is a lot on them because I don't

642
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:20,040
Speaker 2: know if Kem Port Junior can do it Cole Anthony

643
00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:23,000
Speaker 2: is going to get a shot. I mere coffee is

644
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:24,920
Speaker 2: going to get a shot, you know, of the off

645
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 2: the ball a little bit more so, Yes, there's pressure on.

646
00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 1: Them any other under the radar guys. I want to

647
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 1: show some love to.

648
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:35,120
Speaker 4: I had Rob Dillingham in the mix with Terrence Shannon

649
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:38,400
Speaker 4: as well, and then D'Angelo Russell. I mean, he is

650
00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:42,080
Speaker 4: a one time All Star, you know, but I still

651
00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:44,959
Speaker 4: think he's an under the radar player. He actually has

652
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 4: to be good this season for Dallas to do anything.

653
00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:51,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's true. I'm looking forward to. Yeah. So the Wolves, Look,

654
00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:52,760
Speaker 2: we just mentioned a bunch of Bucks. There are a

655
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,440
Speaker 2: bunch of Wolves coming off the bench, and and Rob Dillingham.

656
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 2: Jayalen Clark is sort of their their defensive guy. But

657
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:01,880
Speaker 2: I had his Terence Shannon Junior're gonna have to do.

658
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:03,680
Speaker 2: I mean, they took him off the floor in summer

659
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:06,360
Speaker 2: ly because he was awesome. I don't usually do that

660
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:10,680
Speaker 2: with a guy who's not a number ten DRAFTI like,

661
00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:12,000
Speaker 2: they don't know turn Shannon.

662
00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 4: He's like twenty five years old though.

663
00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:14,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, he's old.

664
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 4: He's old.

665
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:17,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I don't know. Possessions are I don't know,

666
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 2: I thought they just want to see more possessions of

667
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:20,640
Speaker 2: this guy running the offense.

668
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 4: He was good in the playoffs. He doesn't need to

669
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:22,680
Speaker 4: be good.

670
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,600
Speaker 1: And so all right, let's get to a staple when

671
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 1: it comes to burning questions here in No Dunk's Land.

672
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:31,320
Speaker 1: First player to score fifty points in the game. We

673
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:33,440
Speaker 1: always do this. Yeah, I don't know why it's fun

674
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 1: to us. Let me go over last year for you guys,

675
00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:38,720
Speaker 1: just really quickly. Do you remember the first player to

676
00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 1: score fifty last season? Noel embiid No. It happened October

677
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 1: twenty eighth versus the Pacers. Pallo bank Hero.

678
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:49,200
Speaker 2: Oh.

679
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:52,120
Speaker 1: Remember he started the season on fire and playing five games.

680
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:55,680
Speaker 1: One of them was he had twenty two free throw

681
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:58,560
Speaker 1: attempts in that game against the Pacers. That's hell, have

682
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:00,800
Speaker 1: a lot of free throws anyway, was the first to

683
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 1: hit fifty. Then we had Wemby and Giannis eclipsing fifty. Next,

684
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:07,960
Speaker 1: that was both on the same night. Fox was the

685
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,440
Speaker 1: first to hit sixty points on the season. Two nights

686
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:13,760
Speaker 1: after those guys. Lamello Ball did it, jo Kich did it.

687
00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:15,680
Speaker 1: He ended up doing it twice. Remember he had sixty

688
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:16,960
Speaker 1: one on April First, I.

689
00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:18,800
Speaker 4: Do remember you said Lamello had a fifty.

690
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,880
Speaker 1: Mellow Ball had a fifty point game last year. Let

691
00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:24,640
Speaker 1: me keep it going. Actually, Jalen Brunson did it. C

692
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:28,120
Speaker 1: J McCollum did it. Yeah, Anthony Edwards did it, MVP,

693
00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:31,320
Speaker 1: Shae Gildess, Alexander he did it four times. There was

694
00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:33,040
Speaker 1: a stretch there. I think it was like over a

695
00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:36,120
Speaker 1: month where he did it four times. Jamal Murray did

696
00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:38,640
Speaker 1: it once. I know he usually saves it for the playoffs,

697
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:40,560
Speaker 1: but he did in the regular season. Steph Curry did

698
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,600
Speaker 1: it twice once. Jimmy Butler was in town, and James

699
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:46,400
Speaker 1: Harden had a fifty burger. So there's the guys that

700
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:50,120
Speaker 1: did it. Last year, thirteen guys hit fifty plus points

701
00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:52,400
Speaker 1: in a game for a total of eighteen times.

702
00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:55,680
Speaker 2: I do remember the Bank Caro doing against the Pacers,

703
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:58,400
Speaker 2: because that's when everyone says, oh the Pacers defense stakes,

704
00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 2: he's done.

705
00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:02,040
Speaker 1: We'll never get to the finals.

706
00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:06,040
Speaker 2: I remember the Fox sixty. I remember the Lamello fifty.

707
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:08,800
Speaker 1: Is that the one that's ever forgetting the most? Yeah?

708
00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:10,800
Speaker 1: I don't really remember that Jamal Murray won, if I'm

709
00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:14,440
Speaker 1: being honest, But okay, so let's get to this season.

710
00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:18,680
Speaker 1: Prediction time. Who's the first Tray to hit fifteen a game.

711
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:20,680
Speaker 4: It's going to happen on Night two of the NBA season,

712
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:26,000
Speaker 4: October twenty second, Bucks at Wizards. Giannis Antetokumpo Wizard Stink

713
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:29,160
Speaker 4: on defense. Okay, Jannis has to carry this team. Okay,

714
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:31,240
Speaker 4: he's got a chip on his shoulder, said, I'm staying

715
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 4: in Milwaukee for the next six to seven months. Guaranteed,

716
00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:38,160
Speaker 4: I'm locked in. He's also sixth all time, or six

717
00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:41,400
Speaker 4: of them on active players in fifty point games. He

718
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:44,600
Speaker 4: can get there easily. I assume the Wizards they're going

719
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:47,320
Speaker 4: to be poor defensively once again. Maybe he sees his

720
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:50,920
Speaker 4: old teammate Chris Middleton says, remember this and then it

721
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:54,400
Speaker 4: goes nuts. Okay, give me Yanni's very early on, very.

722
00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:56,520
Speaker 2: Early on, very early. I hope he gets it going

723
00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:59,400
Speaker 2: early in that game because it's probably not gonna have

724
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:01,440
Speaker 2: to be on the cour in the fourth quarter. So

725
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:02,920
Speaker 2: hopefully you just do it fast.

726
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:03,200
Speaker 1: Yeah.

727
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:05,400
Speaker 4: I mean, if he has fifty, that should be a

728
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:06,280
Speaker 4: good game for the Bucks.

729
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:06,640
Speaker 2: Yeah.

730
00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:08,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, where are you going? I'm going, Luca

731
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:11,440
Speaker 1: Dontric Yeah, somebody was gonna take him.

732
00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:13,440
Speaker 2: He's going to lead the league in scoring. It's going

733
00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:16,840
Speaker 2: to happen. He didn't have a fifty point game last season,

734
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:19,840
Speaker 2: didn't have an MVP vote last season. I think the

735
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 2: guy is ready for this, especially without Lebron James. I

736
00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:26,400
Speaker 2: think he's going to just have so many opportunities. He's motivated.

737
00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:29,440
Speaker 2: It's got to be Luca. He's gonna have every shot

738
00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:31,640
Speaker 2: on that team. It sure feels like, you know, Austin RWs,

739
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:33,520
Speaker 2: you can have the ball a bit, but without Lebron,

740
00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:35,719
Speaker 2: how many times? How many shots is he going to

741
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:40,600
Speaker 2: average per game? Probably the most of his career. I mean,

742
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:43,560
Speaker 2: twenty three and a half is the highest of his career.

743
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:46,560
Speaker 2: He led the league for three straight seasons with the

744
00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:50,160
Speaker 2: most field goals attempted per game, but those a couple

745
00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,839
Speaker 2: of years ago, So he'll be back.

746
00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:54,960
Speaker 1: Okay. I had Luca on my short list, I mean,

747
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:58,160
Speaker 1: especially with no Lebron to start the season. Skinny Luca

748
00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:01,680
Speaker 1: and all that. I like it. I also had Steph

749
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:03,880
Speaker 1: in the running. I think obviously a guy that can

750
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:07,680
Speaker 1: hit ten to thirteen threes on any given night helps

751
00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:10,879
Speaker 1: your chances to get to fifty Anthony Edwards, but I'm

752
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:14,319
Speaker 1: gonna go with Victor wemen Yama. Yeah, you got it.

753
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:17,040
Speaker 1: Like I said, last year, pretty early he was the

754
00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:18,719
Speaker 1: second guy on the same night as you, honest, like

755
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:20,880
Speaker 1: I said, So why not be the first here and

756
00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:23,319
Speaker 1: maybe one of these first matchups in the first couple

757
00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:25,359
Speaker 1: of weeks, I'll go wemban Yama. I got some fun

758
00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 1: stats or odds or bets I guess from fan duel

759
00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:33,400
Speaker 1: interesting player special odds on wem bean Yama. Guys, Wemby

760
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:35,759
Speaker 1: to score fifty plus points in any game during the

761
00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:40,640
Speaker 1: regular season is just plus one oh five. Yeah, so

762
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:44,240
Speaker 1: they're pretty confident. When me to score fifty five plus

763
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:47,880
Speaker 1: points in any regular season game plus five hundred on FanDuel,

764
00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:48,719
Speaker 1: I like that.

765
00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:51,640
Speaker 4: Bet, Yeah, I mean if he's getting to fifty, yeah,

766
00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:54,279
Speaker 4: why not extra five? I really like that.

767
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:57,279
Speaker 2: Bet. You know they're not blowing out teams too, so

768
00:35:57,320 --> 00:35:58,200
Speaker 2: I think he will play.

769
00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:02,120
Speaker 1: Oh maybe it over time situation something like that. He

770
00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:04,279
Speaker 1: had fifty last year, and he had two forty two

771
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:06,960
Speaker 1: point games last year as well. Two more for you

772
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:09,399
Speaker 1: when me to record a five by five in any

773
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:14,040
Speaker 1: game points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks plus two ninety

774
00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:15,480
Speaker 1: for him to do that just once.

775
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:17,120
Speaker 4: That seems it's yes to me.

776
00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:20,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, that seems like two good of odds and did

777
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:20,879
Speaker 2: it last year?

778
00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 1: And then how about this one? Wemby to record a

779
00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:26,560
Speaker 1: six by five in any game? Points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks,

780
00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:29,720
Speaker 1: three pointers made plus twelve hundred.

781
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:33,960
Speaker 4: I'm putting a little cheddar on that little cheddar cheese.

782
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:36,520
Speaker 4: Come on, give me a can't have ever happened, right,

783
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:39,160
Speaker 4: I don't think so. No, No, I don't think Hachem

784
00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:41,839
Speaker 4: Olajuwon was hitting. No, he might not have hit five

785
00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:44,600
Speaker 4: threes in its entire No, I think he'd be the first. Yeah,

786
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:47,680
Speaker 4: that's don't quote me. Wow, that's that's interesting. I like that.

787
00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:51,239
Speaker 4: I really like that. Away. I thought that was pretty fun.

788
00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:54,960
Speaker 4: The Garth videos back in our life. That's great. Like

789
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:57,640
Speaker 4: you can tell me when By will do anything. I'm like, yeah,

790
00:36:57,680 --> 00:37:01,279
Speaker 4: that'll probably happen. Right, quadrid quadri double, there be five

791
00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 4: in NBA history, and everybody's like, yeah, he's gonna do it.

792
00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:04,839
Speaker 1: There's odds on that one too. Yeah, you can bet

793
00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:05,319
Speaker 1: on that one too.

794
00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:07,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he would be the fifth. I think

795
00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:07,680
Speaker 2: if I'm.

796
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:09,560
Speaker 1: Right, quadruple double.

797
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:12,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, why wouldn't Why wouldn't he get there? He didn't

798
00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:13,960
Speaker 2: like those odds, he didn't mention it.

799
00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:16,360
Speaker 1: I don't love quadruple as much as I love just

800
00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:19,239
Speaker 1: the fives. Yeah, like five blocks the guy can do

801
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,879
Speaker 1: in his sleep, points, rebounds and assists. At this point

802
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:24,680
Speaker 1: with Wemby, that feels like a given almost on most

803
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:28,480
Speaker 1: nights obviously, points and rebounds, assists, okay, and then you

804
00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:30,080
Speaker 1: just get into the To me, it's always like the

805
00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:34,880
Speaker 1: steals or the like the super wild card, just registering

806
00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:37,000
Speaker 1: them in the box coore, and then he's going to

807
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:38,520
Speaker 1: have a game or two where he's hits over five

808
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:40,520
Speaker 1: to three. So like that's what I like. That weird,

809
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:44,239
Speaker 1: that weird six by five all coming together on one

810
00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:48,280
Speaker 1: night at plus twelve hundred. So we'll see anyway, we's

811
00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:50,320
Speaker 1: special night, Special night.

812
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:53,719
Speaker 4: Wemby has had five steals in a game or more?

813
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:56,880
Speaker 4: How many times? He's only played what one hundred and

814
00:37:56,920 --> 00:38:04,280
Speaker 4: something games so far? Seventeen games six four times? Okay, yeah,

815
00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:07,120
Speaker 4: so that's the tough one, it feels like for sure. Yeah, yeah, okay,

816
00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:08,239
Speaker 4: Well there's that's the point.

817
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:10,440
Speaker 2: I guess. Yeah, he's done the five by five twice.

818
00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:13,719
Speaker 2: I forget about the other one. Yeah, jeez, that's all right.

819
00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:15,520
Speaker 1: Next question here for that's crazy.

820
00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:20,279
Speaker 4: He's done the five by five three times? Is that right?

821
00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:21,359
Speaker 4: Is that what I'm saying here?

822
00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:23,840
Speaker 2: He did it twice in his first seventy six games

823
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:26,560
Speaker 2: that he'd played. But I don't have the third one.

824
00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:28,560
Speaker 2: I don't have the five by five lists.

825
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 4: I'm looking at it right now. But I mean, there's

826
00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 4: so many things on this basketball reference page. But I

827
00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:37,040
Speaker 4: think he's done it three times. And like I said,

828
00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:40,160
Speaker 4: he's gotten five steals in a game four times, So

829
00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:42,560
Speaker 4: if he gets the five steals, it happens pretty much.

830
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:44,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the category to watch.

831
00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:46,840
Speaker 4: The other game he had six steals and four blocks.

832
00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:49,840
Speaker 1: So do you think we'll be on Wemby steel Watch

833
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:52,160
Speaker 1: on any given night here during the regular season, Like

834
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:54,600
Speaker 1: we'll start texting each other or getting in the in

835
00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:55,400
Speaker 1: the slack.

836
00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:57,879
Speaker 4: Hey, three steals through a half, right right?

837
00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:03,400
Speaker 1: Hey, Webby's at four steals, man, Maybe so possible. The

838
00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:05,400
Speaker 1: best five by five ever is still to meet Jamal

839
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:08,000
Speaker 1: Tinsley Big time will never be so funny. How the

840
00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:10,160
Speaker 1: hell did he get five bucks? Have we ever seen

841
00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:13,879
Speaker 1: the footage of the blocks? That's the Wilt Chamberlain any game. Yeah,

842
00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:15,600
Speaker 1: we gotta we gotta find that tape.

843
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:18,759
Speaker 2: Okay, next, a little nod to use of Nurkic too,

844
00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:20,080
Speaker 2: Just adn't expect he.

845
00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:22,600
Speaker 1: Got one five by five weird. Yeah, that's a weird one.

846
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:22,799
Speaker 2: Yeah.

847
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:26,719
Speaker 1: Yeah. Which team is most likely to disappoint? Trey? Let's

848
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,000
Speaker 1: start with you on this one. Where are you going

849
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:30,239
Speaker 1: for me?

850
00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:32,440
Speaker 4: I'm choosing between the Magic, the Hawks, and the Pistons.

851
00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:35,000
Speaker 4: All three teams that I think are like right in

852
00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:39,040
Speaker 4: the same realm. They are anticipated to be better than

853
00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:39,800
Speaker 4: last season.

854
00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:40,000
Speaker 2: You know.

855
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:43,560
Speaker 4: The Magic, I think upgrading with Bain, assuming better health

856
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:46,480
Speaker 4: for Polo and Franz, they seem to be on the uptake.

857
00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:48,279
Speaker 4: The Hawks, we have talked about, made a ton of

858
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 4: moves to get better, So it kind of leaves the

859
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:53,759
Speaker 4: Pistons to me, and I don't like the start of

860
00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:55,960
Speaker 4: the season. Jaye kN Ivey's going to be missing time.

861
00:39:56,560 --> 00:40:00,360
Speaker 4: That's kind of a huge part of Detroit's team build

862
00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:02,880
Speaker 4: going into this season and into the future. Like they

863
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,799
Speaker 4: were fine letting Dennis Shrewder walk in free agency, ended

864
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:07,799
Speaker 4: up going to the Kings because they thought we got Ivy.

865
00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:09,840
Speaker 4: He's going to be our secondary ball handler. He's going

866
00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:14,480
Speaker 4: to take those possessions from Shrewder, and that's better for

867
00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:16,799
Speaker 4: the Piston's long term because they need to see if

868
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:20,239
Speaker 4: Kid and Ivy can fit together. We've seen little spurts here.

869
00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:23,560
Speaker 4: They look like a nice pairing together, but Ivy hasn't

870
00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:25,759
Speaker 4: been able to stay on the court, especially last year

871
00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 4: when Caid really took a leap forward. They've got a

872
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:31,040
Speaker 4: bunch of other question marks I think as well, like

873
00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:35,080
Speaker 4: how are their replacements for Malik Beasley and Tim Hardaway

874
00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:38,040
Speaker 4: Junior gonna fair in Duncan Robinson and Karris Lavert, Like

875
00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:40,359
Speaker 4: Karris Lavert's probably going to get a lot of ball

876
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:44,319
Speaker 4: handling opportunities right now with Ivy going down. And look,

877
00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:46,920
Speaker 4: Kris Lavert is fine, but he's a bench guard and

878
00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:49,279
Speaker 4: he's kind of like Cleveland had him, They're like, eh,

879
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:51,520
Speaker 4: we could do better. Hawks had him, Like, yeah, we

880
00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:54,759
Speaker 4: could do better. Detroit's gonna have him be like, maybe

881
00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:57,920
Speaker 4: we could do better, right, you know. So, not a

882
00:40:57,960 --> 00:41:01,120
Speaker 4: great start to the beginning the year for the Pistons

883
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:04,160
Speaker 4: after they had a really huge season last year, adding

884
00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:08,440
Speaker 4: thirty wins, being competitive in the playoffs. Kate established himself

885
00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:10,680
Speaker 4: as an All NBA player. I just don't like the

886
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:14,319
Speaker 4: way things are starting. They seem like a oddly shallow team,

887
00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:16,120
Speaker 4: and they're counting on a lot of young guys to

888
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:18,160
Speaker 4: take a step forward, Like they need Ron Holland to

889
00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:20,560
Speaker 4: be pretty good, I think, to have a successful season

890
00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:23,640
Speaker 4: this year. So it wouldn't surprise me if the Piston's disappoint.

891
00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:25,960
Speaker 4: But I'm always hating on the Pistons, so I don't know.

892
00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:28,560
Speaker 4: They maybe look foolish in the past before except for

893
00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:31,080
Speaker 4: that year when they lost all those games when.

894
00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:33,759
Speaker 1: They set the record. Yeah, futility. Yeah, I mean, I

895
00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:36,000
Speaker 1: get it though, because there are now expectations with this

896
00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:39,319
Speaker 1: Pistons exactly they have to meet those, exceed those And yeah,

897
00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:42,600
Speaker 1: don't love the IVY news, Like, oh, it's deflating to

898
00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:44,719
Speaker 1: see that, right right, And it's not like, oh, he's

899
00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:47,560
Speaker 1: missing a week, Like he's gonna miss at least fifteen

900
00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:49,799
Speaker 1: to twenty games, right like probably a quarter of the

901
00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:52,600
Speaker 1: season by the time he's back out there into the

902
00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:53,080
Speaker 1: swing of thing.

903
00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:54,359
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I hear what you're saying.

904
00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:55,879
Speaker 1: Okay, well do you have another team?

905
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:59,120
Speaker 2: Well, it's easy to stay I find in the Eastern

906
00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:02,719
Speaker 2: Conference because like you just lump those teams together there, Trey.

907
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:07,799
Speaker 2: There's so many expectations for these teams, but obviously those

908
00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:10,440
Speaker 2: teams can disappoint. I'm lumping in the Toronto Raptors with

909
00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:13,799
Speaker 2: that team. They literally have the same over under our

910
00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:17,160
Speaker 2: number as last year. It's very very close. It's now

911
00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:18,880
Speaker 2: thirty eight and a half, last year's thirty nine and

912
00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:23,520
Speaker 2: a half. Fun is it the same old apps one

913
00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:28,160
Speaker 2: more time? Disappointing. And Scottie Barnes obviously hasn't started very well.

914
00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:30,600
Speaker 2: I'm not going to go into his preseason numbers, but

915
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:34,000
Speaker 2: he hasn't looked good when getting out there. It's so

916
00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:37,160
Speaker 2: odd that their starters all played just one game together

917
00:42:37,239 --> 00:42:41,040
Speaker 2: this preseason, the last one where Yakopurto finally got healthy.

918
00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:42,960
Speaker 2: Because they were supposed to be this team that's been

919
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:46,400
Speaker 2: working together, and unfortunately the offense just looked like it

920
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:50,000
Speaker 2: hasn't been working together. So fun to look at these

921
00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:52,200
Speaker 2: Eastern Conference teams because you know there's going to be

922
00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:56,440
Speaker 2: one of those in that group of Indiana, could be Atlanta.

923
00:42:56,920 --> 00:43:00,239
Speaker 2: Detroit is too good I think to be in.

924
00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:02,240
Speaker 1: This, Boston, yeah, maybe Milwaukee.

925
00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:05,200
Speaker 2: You see what Orlando can do, They're freaking awesome. But yeah,

926
00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:06,200
Speaker 2: there's there's a ton of them.

927
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:09,200
Speaker 1: What's a disappointing season to you as a Raptors fan, Like,

928
00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:12,840
Speaker 1: what's going to be Oh, this was bad? What's the record?

929
00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:17,239
Speaker 2: It's if it's not a four to begin their win

930
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:18,960
Speaker 2: total and it's disappointing.

931
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:21,600
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, so you at least five hundred.

932
00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:24,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, at the very least. And if Brandon

933
00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:27,080
Speaker 2: Ingram does look awesome in the preseason, that guy does

934
00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:30,080
Speaker 2: look good. I just got to say that at least

935
00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:32,960
Speaker 2: there's guys playing for this team, unlike last year when

936
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:34,920
Speaker 2: there's so many injured. Yeah, I think they got to

937
00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:36,960
Speaker 2: be that good. If we're talking about a guy getting

938
00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:39,959
Speaker 2: forty per it was a three year to one hundred

939
00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:43,439
Speaker 2: and twenty million dollar deal, right for Brandon Ingram, We're

940
00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:46,760
Speaker 2: talking about yeah, five hundred team, It is not a lot.

941
00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:50,400
Speaker 1: I definitely think Darko Ryakovic is one of the coaches

942
00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:53,040
Speaker 1: on the hot seat if the Raptors are having another

943
00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:55,840
Speaker 1: disappointing year or it's bad it's not working, like I

944
00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:58,040
Speaker 1: think he's on the hot seat. Will agree and a

945
00:43:58,040 --> 00:44:00,839
Speaker 1: lot of people ring up with the Pelicans, Nick with

946
00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:03,040
Speaker 1: the Sixers, He's probably just gonna.

947
00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:03,920
Speaker 2: Ask to lead at some point.

948
00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:07,640
Speaker 1: But to answer the question about team most likely to disappoint,

949
00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:09,680
Speaker 1: I don't know about most likely, but I want to

950
00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:14,280
Speaker 1: throw this question at you guys. What happens if thirty

951
00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:17,080
Speaker 1: games into the season, the Dallas Mavericks have the same

952
00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:21,279
Speaker 1: or better record than the Los Angeles Lakers. I'm just

953
00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:23,480
Speaker 1: throwing it out there, you know, early in the season,

954
00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:26,560
Speaker 1: thirty games, forty games, Like I'm just like, you can

955
00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:29,640
Speaker 1: see the headlines now and the leading topics on your

956
00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:31,480
Speaker 1: debate shows on ESPN.

957
00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:34,080
Speaker 4: And I don't know who this is good for or

958
00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:37,560
Speaker 4: bad for the Lakers. It would be bad for the Lakers. Well,

959
00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:39,200
Speaker 4: what ifs are just really good?

960
00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:44,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, that'd be great. But I'm more leaning into

961
00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:46,759
Speaker 1: this to the answer the question is like, could the

962
00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:49,560
Speaker 1: Lakers disappoint here? And I just again have all these

963
00:44:49,640 --> 00:44:53,400
Speaker 1: questions about their defense and DeAndre As sort of the

964
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:58,400
Speaker 1: backbone of that dominated dominated That will be disappointing for them,

965
00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:01,200
Speaker 1: but it would be of them all for all those

966
00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:02,919
Speaker 1: shows that you just said, oh.

967
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:05,719
Speaker 4: God, yeah, the.

968
00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:06,799
Speaker 2: First things first here it comes, you know.

969
00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:11,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, Nico Harrison was right question number one?

970
00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:12,080
Speaker 4: Was he right?

971
00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:12,319
Speaker 1: All?

972
00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:12,560
Speaker 4: Right?

973
00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:15,520
Speaker 1: Which key player will be traded first? That's our fifth

974
00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:16,200
Speaker 1: burning question.

975
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:21,880
Speaker 2: Wow, I don't want to say I don't want to

976
00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:23,919
Speaker 2: say Yannis, I don't want to say it. I don't

977
00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:25,759
Speaker 2: want to say it. I don't he doesn't want to

978
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:29,919
Speaker 2: be traded other than that because I don't. I don't

979
00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:30,680
Speaker 2: see that happening.

980
00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:32,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, you just said you didn't think that will happen.

981
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:33,920
Speaker 1: This is not this season, not this season.

982
00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:36,000
Speaker 2: He is a man of his word in that he

983
00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:40,960
Speaker 2: shows up for training camp, he doesn't think about it. Done,

984
00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:44,719
Speaker 2: see you next year in Greece, and then he'll talk

985
00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:47,760
Speaker 2: like you talked with John Horst at a dinner in Greece.

986
00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:51,279
Speaker 2: I guess it was by the water. I'm sure he

987
00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:53,080
Speaker 2: had a saganaki, and that's what he'll talk about it.

988
00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:54,480
Speaker 2: He won't talk about it for the next twelve months ago.

989
00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:55,160
Speaker 2: I don't think so.

990
00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:57,160
Speaker 1: There should be a key player traded at some point

991
00:45:57,160 --> 00:45:57,600
Speaker 1: this season.

992
00:45:57,760 --> 00:45:58,520
Speaker 4: No, No.

993
00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:03,240
Speaker 2: I wonder if it's somebody from the Miami Heat, whether

994
00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:05,239
Speaker 2: it's they just say we got to we got to

995
00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:08,520
Speaker 2: move here, we have to move. It's unluckly Tyler here,

996
00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:10,880
Speaker 2: it's unlikely man Anabay, but I feel like one of

997
00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:14,120
Speaker 2: one of them could be delt I know it's it's

998
00:46:14,120 --> 00:46:15,840
Speaker 2: an odd way of thinking about it, but it just

999
00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:21,120
Speaker 2: feels like pat Riley knows at at some point this

1000
00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:24,200
Speaker 2: season if it's not going well that he has to

1001
00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:25,319
Speaker 2: tear it down, shake it up.

1002
00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:28,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they're always like big game hunting too.

1003
00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:30,839
Speaker 1: And yeah, there's that part of the equation as well,

1004
00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:32,520
Speaker 1: who the player would be.

1005
00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:35,640
Speaker 2: But Okay, they have a lot of tradable contracts. Moving

1006
00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:39,000
Speaker 2: on from those two guys, it's Pale, it's Wiggins has

1007
00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:43,040
Speaker 2: They have good numbers to package together, you know, along

1008
00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:45,319
Speaker 2: with their young guys like Amahakas, So it could be

1009
00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:46,480
Speaker 2: more of a package type thing.

1010
00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:48,120
Speaker 5: But I think the Heat could be looking to move

1011
00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:52,760
Speaker 5: what about you, Trey Jonathan KMINGA market opens January fifteenth,

1012
00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:54,640
Speaker 5: and they're basically like, yeah, we signed him to be

1013
00:46:54,680 --> 00:46:57,080
Speaker 5: able to trade him, so I think he is absolutely

1014
00:46:57,080 --> 00:46:57,600
Speaker 5: going to be gone.

1015
00:46:57,640 --> 00:46:59,480
Speaker 4: The other guy that I think is one of the

1016
00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:02,759
Speaker 4: favorites or is Lowry Markinen, just because the timelines don't

1017
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:08,520
Speaker 4: necessarily line up with the Jazz basically saying that this

1018
00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:10,960
Speaker 4: year is year one of their rebuild. Even though they've

1019
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:14,759
Speaker 4: been pretty stinky for the past two seasons, they had

1020
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:17,799
Speaker 4: a decent run in Markanen's first year there. But you know,

1021
00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:20,600
Speaker 4: he's twenty nine years old, he's on a gigantic contract now,

1022
00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:22,640
Speaker 4: and he can help some teams. He would be a

1023
00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:24,560
Speaker 4: nice fit next to Victor wembin Yama.

1024
00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:25,160
Speaker 2: He would be.

1025
00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:29,600
Speaker 4: Good in Detroit. The Warriors have been chasing after him previously,

1026
00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:31,440
Speaker 4: though it's kind of hard for them to do a

1027
00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:33,279
Speaker 4: deal for him now. So those are the two guys

1028
00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:35,360
Speaker 4: that I'm mostly looking at, Kaminga and Markanen.

1029
00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:38,400
Speaker 1: We've talked about the Sacramento Kings and the possibility of

1030
00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:42,120
Speaker 1: them trading one, if not both, of their guys moving forward.

1031
00:47:42,160 --> 00:47:44,600
Speaker 1: So zach Lavine and Derosen now, they both have two

1032
00:47:44,640 --> 00:47:46,719
Speaker 1: years left on their contract, but the second season for

1033
00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:49,479
Speaker 1: DeRozan is partially guaranteed, so he's probably the more likely

1034
00:47:49,880 --> 00:47:51,520
Speaker 1: of the two. I think you brought this up before

1035
00:47:51,560 --> 00:47:56,160
Speaker 1: TK to maybe move because what we've seen of those

1036
00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:59,799
Speaker 1: two guys on the court together playing it hasn't translated well.

1037
00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:03,680
Speaker 1: The stats are brutal, especially defensively. Defensively, they give up

1038
00:48:03,719 --> 00:48:05,239
Speaker 1: a ton of points when they're both out there. So

1039
00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:09,239
Speaker 1: will the Kings pivot and try and get something back?

1040
00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:12,480
Speaker 1: Draft prospects, young player, whatever you know, they're obviously in

1041
00:48:12,520 --> 00:48:15,480
Speaker 1: the coaminga sort of hunt. Maybe there's something there, but

1042
00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:19,480
Speaker 1: I'll go with the Kings as probably Demarto Rosen fighting guess.

1043
00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:21,600
Speaker 2: Or he got a big wing to yeah, help them

1044
00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:24,760
Speaker 2: out because they're already missing one r J Barrett.

1045
00:48:25,200 --> 00:48:29,680
Speaker 4: That guy's getting bah yeah, Darko said, or Bobby Webster said.

1046
00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:31,520
Speaker 4: Our team is not going to look the same at

1047
00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:33,719
Speaker 4: the trade deadline as it does at the start of

1048
00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:36,040
Speaker 4: the season. You saw the clips going around from their

1049
00:48:36,080 --> 00:48:39,000
Speaker 4: preseason game when all their starters played. They're not guarding RJ. Barrett.

1050
00:48:39,239 --> 00:48:41,480
Speaker 4: They're not guarding most of the raptors. If we're being honest,

1051
00:48:41,520 --> 00:48:43,840
Speaker 4: there's five guys in the lane from the defense and

1052
00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:46,279
Speaker 4: r J's just doesn't fit in the starting lineup. And

1053
00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:47,799
Speaker 4: then what you're going to be paying him thirty million

1054
00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:49,640
Speaker 4: dollars to come off the bench doesn't make much sense.

1055
00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:53,200
Speaker 4: So I think he is going to be headed that Okay.

1056
00:48:53,239 --> 00:48:55,399
Speaker 2: That's a fair one. Bobby Webster is seeing all these

1057
00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:58,000
Speaker 2: contracts be put together, and he was part of the

1058
00:48:58,000 --> 00:48:59,960
Speaker 2: front office that did it. He sees them and I'm

1059
00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:03,560
Speaker 2: I'm sure as this new role for him, I'm sure

1060
00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:05,319
Speaker 2: he doesn't want to just stick with it, the same

1061
00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:09,319
Speaker 2: same roster year after year after year, because essentially that's

1062
00:49:09,320 --> 00:49:12,239
Speaker 2: what Masai got fired for in doing.

1063
00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:16,960
Speaker 1: That final question, who wins the twenty twenty six NBA Finals?

1064
00:49:16,960 --> 00:49:19,000
Speaker 1: You want to give me both teams and who comes

1065
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:21,400
Speaker 1: out victorious and finals MVP if you really want to,

1066
00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:22,359
Speaker 1: how about it.

1067
00:49:23,520 --> 00:49:27,160
Speaker 2: I'm taking the Denver Nuggets to get there and they'll

1068
00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:28,200
Speaker 2: beat the New York Knicks.

1069
00:49:29,120 --> 00:49:31,400
Speaker 1: Wow, Knicks going to the finals.

1070
00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:35,080
Speaker 2: Yeah. I feel actually a little bit more reluctant to

1071
00:49:35,080 --> 00:49:37,320
Speaker 2: say that the Knicks will get there rather than the Nuggets.

1072
00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:39,719
Speaker 2: We'll get there, because we'll see what the Caps can do.

1073
00:49:39,719 --> 00:49:41,239
Speaker 2: But I do believe in the Knicks, and I do

1074
00:49:41,280 --> 00:49:44,680
Speaker 2: believe that Nikoliokich has to win another title. And here

1075
00:49:44,719 --> 00:49:48,839
Speaker 2: he is entering age thirty one, the other guys around

1076
00:49:48,880 --> 00:49:51,520
Speaker 2: him getting older. Jamal Murray is pretty important. So I

1077
00:49:51,520 --> 00:49:53,680
Speaker 2: will say that they get there. I think this team

1078
00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:57,120
Speaker 2: is good enough. Nikolaijokch obviously the MVP. If we're going

1079
00:49:57,160 --> 00:49:59,680
Speaker 2: to include that finals MVP.

1080
00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:05,279
Speaker 4: Final, you're not going to Bruce Brown, Okay, some big

1081
00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:06,640
Speaker 4: finals games against the Heat.

1082
00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:09,640
Speaker 1: Nuggets over Nicks. It says tasks where you go and

1083
00:50:09,680 --> 00:50:11,080
Speaker 1: track that's what I had in my notes.

1084
00:50:11,120 --> 00:50:14,319
Speaker 4: Wow, exactly. Yeah, but I'm not changing Okay, Yeah, I'll

1085
00:50:14,360 --> 00:50:18,200
Speaker 4: go Thunder over Knicks. Okay, yeah, Actually, maybe a repeat

1086
00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:20,840
Speaker 4: champion is a bigger upset than the Thunder getting knocked

1087
00:50:20,840 --> 00:50:22,680
Speaker 4: off by the Denver Nuggets. But those are the top

1088
00:50:22,680 --> 00:50:26,000
Speaker 4: two teams for sure, Thunder than Nuggets. So yeah, I'll

1089
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:28,399
Speaker 4: go Thunder over Nicks. I originally had, like I said,

1090
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:30,640
Speaker 4: Nuggets over next the Mellow Bowl, but Thunder over Nicks

1091
00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:33,160
Speaker 4: is also the Melow Bowl. So that's right, it's right

1092
00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:34,000
Speaker 4: Under over Knicks.

1093
00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:35,880
Speaker 1: Official you changing your pick to that?

1094
00:50:36,440 --> 00:50:39,120
Speaker 4: Uh? Changed it to my pick. It's Thunder over Nicks.

1095
00:50:39,120 --> 00:50:39,440
Speaker 4: There you go.

1096
00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:42,280
Speaker 1: I think we're going back to back with the Thunder

1097
00:50:42,320 --> 00:50:46,279
Speaker 1: because they're just so deep, they're so versatile. They can

1098
00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:49,560
Speaker 1: like play against Yo Kich and slow the big man down.

1099
00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:52,440
Speaker 1: They can play against the you know, the Minnesota Timberwolves

1100
00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:55,000
Speaker 1: and contain Anthony Edwards enough. Like they're they're awesome, and

1101
00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:56,440
Speaker 1: I think for the first time in a very long time,

1102
00:50:56,440 --> 00:50:58,719
Speaker 1: we're gonna have a repeat champion. So I will go Thunder,

1103
00:50:58,760 --> 00:51:00,440
Speaker 1: and I have the Knicks as the representative from the

1104
00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:02,480
Speaker 1: East as well, But we are right now are in

1105
00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:05,280
Speaker 1: the middle of the greatest run of parody in league history.

1106
00:51:05,840 --> 00:51:08,840
Speaker 1: Since twenty nineteen, the Raps, the Lakers, the Bucks, the Warriors,

1107
00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:11,320
Speaker 1: the Nuggets, the Celtics, and the Thunder have each raised

1108
00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:15,560
Speaker 1: the title banner. So can that streak extend another year?

1109
00:51:15,640 --> 00:51:18,759
Speaker 1: We're saying no because it's either of the Nuggets through

1110
00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:22,000
Speaker 1: the Thunder winning. But maybe it is the Wolves or

1111
00:51:22,040 --> 00:51:26,000
Speaker 1: the Rockets, or of course the Eastern Conference team that

1112
00:51:26,040 --> 00:51:28,000
Speaker 1: would have to be the Knicks or the Cavaliers to

1113
00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:29,240
Speaker 1: keep the streak going.

1114
00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:34,279
Speaker 4: Crazy, crazier things have happened. Is anybody going to pick

1115
00:51:34,280 --> 00:51:36,760
Speaker 4: an East team to win the championship? Like any body

1116
00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:37,320
Speaker 4: in media?

1117
00:51:38,719 --> 00:51:44,480
Speaker 1: Well, Kevin Pelton's simulation did that magic over Warriors?

1118
00:51:44,560 --> 00:51:48,200
Speaker 4: Magic over Warriors simulation number six hundred and twenty, I believe?

1119
00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:52,400
Speaker 1: Wow, Okay, no, The answer is that was so funny

1120
00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:52,600
Speaker 1: to me.

1121
00:51:52,840 --> 00:51:54,719
Speaker 4: I thought that was an interesting article at first, and

1122
00:51:54,719 --> 00:51:57,000
Speaker 4: then I read through the first couple of paragraphs again

1123
00:51:57,040 --> 00:51:58,840
Speaker 4: and he's literally like, this was number six hundred and

1124
00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:00,200
Speaker 4: twenty and we picked it because it was weird.

1125
00:52:00,600 --> 00:52:01,319
Speaker 2: Oh yeah.

1126
00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:04,799
Speaker 4: It wasn't like a combination of all of the simulations.

1127
00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:06,560
Speaker 4: It was just like, this is the weirdest one, and

1128
00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:08,680
Speaker 4: that is the weirdest one, probably.

1129
00:52:08,280 --> 00:52:11,319
Speaker 1: The Magic winning the Yeah, probably, So all the other

1130
00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:14,400
Speaker 1: ones were Thunder winning, Nuggets winning a man. Yeah, okay,

1131
00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:17,000
Speaker 1: that makes a little more sense, like the lottery numbers.

1132
00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:19,200
Speaker 2: You know, they popped out for Cooper Flag, but the

1133
00:52:19,239 --> 00:52:22,160
Speaker 2: other ones were a little bit more likely, I guess,

1134
00:52:22,640 --> 00:52:28,799
Speaker 2: but not not that unlikely. Six hundred and nineteen wow. Wow,

1135
00:52:28,920 --> 00:52:30,680
Speaker 2: So the six hundred and eighteen first six hundred and

1136
00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:33,640
Speaker 2: eighteen just sucked. They're just two predictable.

1137
00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:36,719
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, look we had we had the same picks,

1138
00:52:36,800 --> 00:52:37,800
Speaker 4: or we had the same picks.

1139
00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:38,200
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1140
00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:40,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's not as exciting to talk about as the

1141
00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:40,920
Speaker 4: Magic beating.

1142
00:52:40,680 --> 00:52:43,719
Speaker 2: The Warriors unfortunately. Yeah. Yeah, and that's what like, like

1143
00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:46,840
Speaker 2: you just said, skeets that would last seven NBA champs

1144
00:52:46,840 --> 00:52:49,360
Speaker 2: have been all different. That's what they want with the

1145
00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:53,080
Speaker 2: new CBA. They want some arity. But it's hard. Yeah,

1146
00:52:53,080 --> 00:52:55,840
Speaker 2: it's hard. It's difficult to say that about the Okay,

1147
00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:57,920
Speaker 2: see Thunder that they won't be the first repeat champion

1148
00:52:57,960 --> 00:53:00,399
Speaker 2: since the Warriors in seventeen eighteen because they're so freaking young,

1149
00:53:02,160 --> 00:53:03,000
Speaker 2: full stop.

1150
00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:04,799
Speaker 4: Right there, that they're tough to go.

1151
00:53:04,880 --> 00:53:06,960
Speaker 1: How are they going to get worse. Yeah, but you know,

1152
00:53:07,480 --> 00:53:10,960
Speaker 1: maybe unfortunate injury to SGA. Let's say, I mean, I

1153
00:53:10,960 --> 00:53:12,880
Speaker 1: don't want to talk that into existence, but like something

1154
00:53:12,920 --> 00:53:14,960
Speaker 1: like that, it feels like would have to happen, could

1155
00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:17,120
Speaker 1: happen for one of these really good teams like the

1156
00:53:17,200 --> 00:53:19,640
Speaker 1: Nuggets or the Wolves or the Rockets, or maybe one

1157
00:53:19,640 --> 00:53:21,600
Speaker 1: of the LA teams, or maybe Steph Courage, I mean,

1158
00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:23,640
Speaker 1: Butler and Draymond Green got one more in them, Like

1159
00:53:24,160 --> 00:53:25,800
Speaker 1: it's not I guess I was going to ask you guys, like,

1160
00:53:25,800 --> 00:53:29,000
Speaker 1: would you take the Thunder or the field in the

1161
00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:33,239
Speaker 1: Western Conference to get to the finals? Okay? And then

1162
00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:35,200
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, would you take the Calves and

1163
00:53:35,360 --> 00:53:38,839
Speaker 1: Knicks or the field in the Eastern Conference to get

1164
00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:41,400
Speaker 1: to the finals? Like are you just going with the

1165
00:53:41,440 --> 00:53:43,160
Speaker 1: Thunder and then either the Calves or the Knicks or

1166
00:53:43,160 --> 00:53:45,120
Speaker 1: you like can talk yourself into the field being better.

1167
00:53:47,360 --> 00:53:49,160
Speaker 4: I would be more likely to take the field in

1168
00:53:49,200 --> 00:53:51,919
Speaker 4: the Western Conference, Yeah, yeah, because I think the Calves

1169
00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:54,080
Speaker 4: in the Knicks are pretty far ahead in the East.

1170
00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:57,840
Speaker 4: But the Thunder, I think are ahead of the Nuggets.

1171
00:53:58,120 --> 00:54:00,560
Speaker 4: But look they had two seven games series. Oh yeah,

1172
00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:03,000
Speaker 4: the Thunder could have got bounced at any time, Like

1173
00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:05,680
Speaker 4: if Aaron Gordon has two legs, Michael Porter Junior has

1174
00:54:05,719 --> 00:54:08,400
Speaker 4: two arms, maybe Game seven against Denver goes differently.

1175
00:54:08,760 --> 00:54:11,680
Speaker 2: I think twelve months ago after the Celtics won the title,

1176
00:54:11,840 --> 00:54:14,680
Speaker 2: there are more people thinking that the Celtics would repeat

1177
00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:18,640
Speaker 2: than there are saying the Thunder will repeat. I think

1178
00:54:18,680 --> 00:54:22,640
Speaker 2: that was more interesting. Maybe maybe I'm maybe I'm off,

1179
00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:25,600
Speaker 2: but a lot of people, yeah, we're saying the Celtics

1180
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:29,000
Speaker 2: were but they were just destined because they are a

1181
00:54:29,040 --> 00:54:32,320
Speaker 2: fairly young team.

1182
00:54:31,360 --> 00:54:33,560
Speaker 1: Right now, though, picking a repeat champion feels like a

1183
00:54:33,600 --> 00:54:34,839
Speaker 1: sucker's bet because it.

1184
00:54:34,840 --> 00:54:37,080
Speaker 4: Never happens, has not happened in a very very long time.

1185

1220
00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:28,480
Speaker 1: I think we can move with some pace through these.

1221
00:56:28,600 --> 00:56:32,439
Speaker 1: Malcolm Brogden has decided to retire from basketball after nine

1222
00:56:32,520 --> 00:56:34,600
Speaker 1: NBA seasons. The former Rookie the Year winner was on

1223
00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:37,080
Speaker 1: track to make the Knicks final roster, but he had

1224
00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:40,160
Speaker 1: been contemplating retirement, and he informed New York officials on

1225
00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:43,839
Speaker 1: Wednesday of his decision. Test How shocked were you by

1226
00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:46,960
Speaker 1: by this news? Bron just saying I'm gonna hang them up?

1227
00:56:47,520 --> 00:56:50,000
Speaker 2: For sure. I thought he'd be willing to give it

1228
00:56:50,040 --> 00:56:52,399
Speaker 2: a shot with the Knicks. We're talking about a team

1229
00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:55,800
Speaker 2: that literally could make the NBA finals. But his body

1230
00:56:55,920 --> 00:56:58,720
Speaker 2: can't be holding up. When I was a big Malcolm

1231
00:56:58,719 --> 00:57:01,800
Speaker 2: Brogden back, I mean he had a fifty to forty

1232
00:57:01,920 --> 00:57:05,080
Speaker 2: ninety year In year number three with the Milwaukee Bucks.

1233
00:57:05,640 --> 00:57:09,360
Speaker 2: He was playing in those conference finals against the Toronto Raptors.

1234
00:57:09,480 --> 00:57:11,759
Speaker 2: He looked like he could evolve and be a great player,

1235
00:57:11,760 --> 00:57:14,480
Speaker 2: and that's why the Pacers said, all right, we're paying

1236
00:57:14,480 --> 00:57:16,160
Speaker 2: you a ton of money. A guy who made one

1237
00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:19,160
Speaker 2: hundred and thirty three mil over his nine year career

1238
00:57:20,280 --> 00:57:22,600
Speaker 2: and then his body just didn't hold up. He was

1239
00:57:23,640 --> 00:57:26,040
Speaker 2: much better than he ended up showing in his career,

1240
00:57:26,120 --> 00:57:28,360
Speaker 2: just because he couldn't be on the floor. But as

1241
00:57:28,800 --> 00:57:30,800
Speaker 2: if he was a secondary playmaker, as I thought he

1242
00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:33,280
Speaker 2: could be a guy that got to a championship as

1243
00:57:33,520 --> 00:57:37,200
Speaker 2: a secondary playmaker. He was good at that. It just

1244
00:57:37,240 --> 00:57:40,200
Speaker 2: didn't happen enough. So yeah, I was definitely definitely shocked

1245
00:57:40,200 --> 00:57:43,240
Speaker 2: that he couldn't. I mean, I guess he's a little

1246
00:57:43,280 --> 00:57:46,320
Speaker 2: bit of an older nine year player for me exact

1247
00:57:46,320 --> 00:57:46,880
Speaker 2: put it that way.

1248
00:57:46,920 --> 00:57:48,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was twenty four when he came into the

1249
00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:51,400
Speaker 4: league because he was an injury guy back to college.

1250
00:57:51,480 --> 00:57:54,440
Speaker 4: So you know, it's not super surprising when I'm almost

1251
00:57:54,480 --> 00:57:58,680
Speaker 4: thirty three year old retires, But nine seasons seems like

1252
00:57:58,840 --> 00:58:00,760
Speaker 4: very few, Yeah, especially for a guy that won two

1253
00:58:00,760 --> 00:58:03,959
Speaker 4: awards in nine seasons. Pretty crazy. Yeah, in the fifty

1254
00:58:04,320 --> 00:58:06,640
Speaker 4: nineties and fifty forty ninety like he did a lot, yeah,

1255
00:58:06,720 --> 00:58:09,400
Speaker 4: you know, and he was talked about as a y,

1256
00:58:09,480 --> 00:58:12,040
Speaker 4: honest guy. He was like an important part of those

1257
00:58:12,080 --> 00:58:14,600
Speaker 4: Pacers teams, like you're saying like it. He was kind

1258
00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:19,440
Speaker 4: of a notable character for just a dude, all things considered.

1259
00:58:19,680 --> 00:58:21,320
Speaker 4: For the next when they signed him, I was like,

1260
00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:23,120
Speaker 4: I think they should give Tyler Collock a chance over

1261
00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:25,800
Speaker 4: Malcolm Brogden. Brogden didn't really do much for the Knicks

1262
00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:27,640
Speaker 4: in the preseason. He was like three points a game,

1263
00:58:27,880 --> 00:58:30,840
Speaker 4: three assists. Just didn't look right. Obviously his body's not right.

1264
00:58:30,960 --> 00:58:33,000
Speaker 4: So I think this works out okay for New York.

1265
00:58:33,480 --> 00:58:36,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's going to be Malcolm Brogden is the future

1266
00:58:36,160 --> 00:58:40,240
Speaker 1: answer to two great trivia questions, one being hey, who's

1267
00:58:40,280 --> 00:58:42,240
Speaker 1: won Rookie of the Year and sixth Man of the

1268
00:58:42,320 --> 00:58:45,880
Speaker 1: Year awards. It's Malcolm Brogden, Mike Miller.

1269
00:58:46,040 --> 00:58:46,400
Speaker 4: That's it.

1270
00:58:46,560 --> 00:58:50,280
Speaker 1: So that'll come up in the future. And I also

1271
00:58:50,640 --> 00:58:53,480
Speaker 1: read that he's the first player drafted outside the first

1272
00:58:53,560 --> 00:58:55,880
Speaker 1: round to win Rookie of the Year. He was when

1273
00:58:55,880 --> 00:58:59,360
Speaker 1: he did it since Willis Reid in nineteen sixty five,

1274
00:58:59,760 --> 00:59:02,200
Speaker 1: so that was very rare too for to be a

1275
00:59:02,200 --> 00:59:04,920
Speaker 1: second round guy. When Willis Reid was getting drafted, I mean,

1276
00:59:04,960 --> 00:59:08,360
Speaker 1: it was like ten picks round, so it's very different.

1277
00:59:08,360 --> 00:59:10,600
Speaker 1: But the point is he will be the answer to

1278
00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:13,040
Speaker 1: a few trivia questions. People were shocked that he didn't

1279
00:59:13,080 --> 00:59:15,200
Speaker 1: just like stay on the next roster or stay on

1280
00:59:15,240 --> 00:59:18,520
Speaker 1: an NBA roster hit that tenth season, because I think

1281
00:59:18,520 --> 00:59:22,600
Speaker 1: you're then warranted the pension from the NBA Players Association.

1282
00:59:22,800 --> 00:59:26,560
Speaker 1: So he didn't hit that, which is a little shocking.

1283
00:59:26,600 --> 00:59:29,560
Speaker 1: But yeah, this guy just could never stay healthy. And

1284
00:59:29,600 --> 00:59:31,720
Speaker 1: I think he's probably thinking, I also, like, I want

1285
00:59:31,720 --> 00:59:35,640
Speaker 1: to be a human after basketball around my kids and

1286
00:59:35,680 --> 00:59:38,360
Speaker 1: walking around and stuff like that. He's only had two

1287
00:59:38,360 --> 00:59:40,560
Speaker 1: seasons of sixty five or more games. That sort of

1288
00:59:40,560 --> 00:59:43,360
Speaker 1: blew my mind too. I knew he was banged up always,

1289
00:59:43,360 --> 00:59:45,280
Speaker 1: but I think I was shocked at how banged up

1290
00:59:45,360 --> 00:59:46,400
Speaker 1: every single year.

1291
00:59:46,240 --> 00:59:49,000
Speaker 2: He was right, And I guess he knew he wasn't

1292
00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:52,120
Speaker 2: going to be contributing to this team and being a

1293
00:59:52,160 --> 00:59:54,960
Speaker 2: prominent player, because I guess when he signed the contract

1294
00:59:54,960 --> 00:59:58,360
Speaker 2: he thought, I was literally going to play and be

1295
00:59:58,480 --> 01:00:01,040
Speaker 2: good on a good team. When you're scoring three points

1296
01:00:01,040 --> 01:00:02,480
Speaker 2: per game, that ain't gonna happen. And I guess the

1297
01:00:02,480 --> 01:00:05,000
Speaker 2: pension doesn't matter to him when he made one hundred

1298
01:00:05,040 --> 01:00:09,280
Speaker 2: and thirty three million and he's taking taking care of

1299
01:00:09,320 --> 01:00:09,760
Speaker 2: that money.

1300
01:00:09,800 --> 01:00:12,160
Speaker 4: You think you'll come back, you'll come back. Some team

1301
01:00:12,360 --> 01:00:14,560
Speaker 4: convinced themselves. Hey, Malcolm Brogden can help us out.

1302
01:00:15,280 --> 01:00:16,560
Speaker 2: You say the word retired.

1303
01:00:17,040 --> 01:00:18,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think he will.

1304
01:00:18,920 --> 01:00:20,520
Speaker 4: I've seen guys come back from retirement.

1305
01:00:20,760 --> 01:00:20,960
Speaker 2: I know.

1306
01:00:21,040 --> 01:00:23,240
Speaker 1: I know they're not They're not as bad as wrestlers.

1307
01:00:23,800 --> 01:00:26,520
Speaker 1: But you're right. I don't think he will.

1308
01:00:26,560 --> 01:00:28,280
Speaker 2: I think he's different. I think he's a different breed.

1309
01:00:28,800 --> 01:00:31,120
Speaker 1: When he makes a decision, he sticks with it. How

1310
01:00:31,160 --> 01:00:34,280
Speaker 1: will you Which team will you remember most from Malcolm

1311
01:00:34,320 --> 01:00:39,560
Speaker 1: brogten Like? Is it the Pacers, the Bucks, the Celtics?

1312
01:00:39,800 --> 01:00:43,439
Speaker 1: Oddly definitely not the Wizards, but Blazers. I don't really

1313
01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:44,880
Speaker 1: know which.

1314
01:00:47,240 --> 01:00:48,560
Speaker 2: Yah, Yeah, he was solid.

1315
01:00:48,560 --> 01:00:49,880
Speaker 1: What will you pick or remember?

1316
01:00:49,920 --> 01:00:50,720
Speaker 4: I don't want to answer.

1317
01:00:52,160 --> 01:00:52,560
Speaker 2: You won't.

1318
01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:55,520
Speaker 4: I'm not going to remember Malcolm brock Oh you will?

1319
01:00:55,640 --> 01:00:56,920
Speaker 4: So you kidding me?

1320
01:00:57,000 --> 01:00:57,160
Speaker 2: No?

1321
01:00:57,200 --> 01:00:58,840
Speaker 4: Tell me tell me his best game you ever saw

1322
01:01:00,120 --> 01:01:00,920
Speaker 4: in the NBA?

1323
01:01:01,040 --> 01:01:01,720
Speaker 2: Well, you're the best.

1324
01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:03,880
Speaker 4: The thing you remember about Malcolm Brognen is that he

1325
01:01:03,960 --> 01:01:05,640
Speaker 4: won Rookie of the Year when Joel and being played

1326
01:01:05,640 --> 01:01:08,400
Speaker 4: thirty one games. Yes, yeah, that's why I didn't want to answer.

1327
01:01:09,400 --> 01:01:12,360
Speaker 1: So I guess you'd go with with that team if

1328
01:01:12,360 --> 01:01:14,440
Speaker 1: you had to pick, You're going Milwaukee, I guess, yeah.

1329
01:01:14,480 --> 01:01:16,360
Speaker 1: But he just looked up which team he was playing for.

1330
01:01:16,880 --> 01:01:17,560
Speaker 4: When that happened.

1331
01:01:17,600 --> 01:01:23,360
Speaker 2: Yeah. Sure, that was a great year forty ninety. So

1332
01:01:23,360 --> 01:01:26,120
Speaker 2: that's what I a would remember just because that was

1333
01:01:26,200 --> 01:01:29,760
Speaker 2: that was almost the peak. Okay, So like he was

1334
01:01:29,760 --> 01:01:33,720
Speaker 2: ascending there in that year three fifty forty ninety and

1335
01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:36,920
Speaker 2: that's when Indiana said, okay, we believe in you. I

1336
01:01:36,920 --> 01:01:39,320
Speaker 2: don't know how much they did in terms of the

1337
01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:43,320
Speaker 2: doctor work checking the knees, because that's uh, that's what

1338
01:01:43,440 --> 01:01:45,120
Speaker 2: held him back in the NBA.

1339
01:01:45,520 --> 01:01:47,280
Speaker 1: All right, next piece of news here, let's get to

1340
01:01:47,320 --> 01:01:49,520
Speaker 1: the Kings news of it all. Nine time All Star

1341
01:01:49,600 --> 01:01:51,960
Speaker 1: Russell Westbrook has agreed on a deal to sign with

1342
01:01:52,080 --> 01:01:52,480
Speaker 1: the Kings.

1343
01:01:52,520 --> 01:01:52,640
Speaker 4: Now.

1344
01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:55,680
Speaker 1: Sean's reported that Westbrook and the Kings have maintained communication

1345
01:01:55,760 --> 01:01:59,080
Speaker 1: all last season. Russ remained patient in free agency, but

1346
01:01:59,120 --> 01:02:03,440
Speaker 1: he lands a deal for his eighteenth season as expected.

1347
01:02:03,480 --> 01:02:07,520
Speaker 1: One year, three point six million, that's minimum. So Westbrook

1348
01:02:07,600 --> 01:02:11,439
Speaker 1: joining another team here, Trey a team that you will

1349
01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:14,520
Speaker 1: probably twenty years from now, will not remember Westbrook I

1350
01:02:14,680 --> 01:02:17,600
Speaker 1: played for. But anyway, what do you think about this signing?

1351
01:02:17,760 --> 01:02:21,440
Speaker 4: I literally just got why he's wearing number eighteen eighteenth season.

1352
01:02:21,800 --> 01:02:23,480
Speaker 4: I saw a lot of people on Twitter saying it,

1353
01:02:23,560 --> 01:02:27,360
Speaker 4: but a Russell Westbrook number eighteen Kings Jersey just add

1354
01:02:27,400 --> 01:02:31,000
Speaker 4: him to the washed montage. Already we're talking about Kevin

1355
01:02:31,040 --> 01:02:37,440
Speaker 4: Garnet playing for the Nets, Paul Pierce playing for the Clippers, stints.

1356
01:02:37,480 --> 01:02:40,800
Speaker 4: You don't remember, right. The Kings don't need Russell Westbrook

1357
01:02:40,840 --> 01:02:43,840
Speaker 4: at all. This is a want, not a need. They

1358
01:02:43,880 --> 01:02:47,200
Speaker 4: need some guys who have size. Westbrook has actually gotten

1359
01:02:47,240 --> 01:02:49,360
Speaker 4: sixth Man of the Year votes the last couple of seasons.

1360
01:02:49,400 --> 01:02:52,240
Speaker 4: He was good on the Nuggets during the regular season.

1361
01:02:52,400 --> 01:02:54,240
Speaker 4: He helped them beat the Clippers in the first round

1362
01:02:54,240 --> 01:02:56,360
Speaker 4: of the playoffs, and then he wasn't very good in

1363
01:02:56,400 --> 01:02:59,560
Speaker 4: the second round of the playoffs against the Thunder. He's

1364
01:02:59,560 --> 01:03:01,400
Speaker 4: going to be one of the King's best rebounders, which

1365
01:03:01,480 --> 01:03:03,000
Speaker 4: is kind of what I think is going to be

1366
01:03:03,120 --> 01:03:06,080
Speaker 4: the biggest impact he has for Sacramento. They're not a

1367
01:03:06,080 --> 01:03:08,840
Speaker 4: great rebounding team outside of Demonta Sabonis, who is one

1368
01:03:08,880 --> 01:03:11,680
Speaker 4: of the best rebounders in the league. But he's an

1369
01:03:11,720 --> 01:03:13,720
Speaker 4: intense guy. He's going to play with effort, he's going

1370
01:03:13,760 --> 01:03:15,800
Speaker 4: to play fast like all of those things will probably

1371
01:03:15,840 --> 01:03:19,240
Speaker 4: actually help Sacramento. But I think they should have went

1372
01:03:19,280 --> 01:03:20,920
Speaker 4: for Ben Simmons. I can't believe it, but that's who

1373
01:03:20,960 --> 01:03:23,080
Speaker 4: I think they should have went for over Westbrook. But

1374
01:03:23,240 --> 01:03:26,240
Speaker 4: now he's on the Kings because they've wanted him, and

1375
01:03:26,320 --> 01:03:30,560
Speaker 4: you know, DeRozan, Sabonis and Levine all said, yeah, we

1376
01:03:30,560 --> 01:03:33,360
Speaker 4: want Russell Westbrook. Players always say they want Russell Westbrook.

1377
01:03:33,360 --> 01:03:35,480
Speaker 4: He's beloved for sure by players and in the locker

1378
01:03:35,560 --> 01:03:36,320
Speaker 4: room and stuff like that.

1379
01:03:36,800 --> 01:03:38,960
Speaker 1: And he gives the effort. No one will ever say

1380
01:03:38,960 --> 01:03:42,560
Speaker 1: Westbrook does not give effort. But he's been semi unplayable

1381
01:03:42,640 --> 01:03:44,880
Speaker 1: in some playoff series for the last little while because

1382
01:03:44,880 --> 01:03:46,960
Speaker 1: of the lack of shooting. That hurts him.

1383
01:03:46,960 --> 01:03:52,840
Speaker 2: But but he did help them win games against Yeah,

1384
01:03:52,880 --> 01:03:55,760
Speaker 2: and that was only last year. Big difference playing with

1385
01:03:55,840 --> 01:04:00,080
Speaker 2: Nikoli Jokish, obviously, So I don't think anyone's coming in

1386
01:04:00,080 --> 01:04:02,760
Speaker 2: to this signing and thinking, oh, that's going to make

1387
01:04:02,760 --> 01:04:05,800
Speaker 2: a difference for the Sacramento Kings and who they.

1388
01:04:05,720 --> 01:04:10,240
Speaker 1: Are, Right, You're not adding wins probably to your progostant. Well,

1389
01:04:10,440 --> 01:04:13,880
Speaker 1: that's what I'm trying to say, prognostication right for the things.

1390
01:04:13,640 --> 01:04:16,720
Speaker 2: I will they move the ball like Jokic was able

1391
01:04:16,760 --> 01:04:19,160
Speaker 2: to do with Westbrook around him, like just cut after

1392
01:04:19,200 --> 01:04:23,560
Speaker 2: cut after cut, because they are a really good team

1393
01:04:23,640 --> 01:04:26,240
Speaker 2: running through Demata Sibonis as their guy. Like will he

1394
01:04:26,480 --> 01:04:28,920
Speaker 2: will he find Russell Westbrook on pat and cuts like that.

1395
01:04:29,720 --> 01:04:31,080
Speaker 2: I think we'll see some of that. Yeah, I think

1396
01:04:31,080 --> 01:04:33,200
Speaker 2: you'll be comfortable to coming off the bench. You know,

1397
01:04:33,280 --> 01:04:35,800
Speaker 2: when you signed down a Shuter to that big contract.

1398
01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:38,520
Speaker 2: I mean I think you're only playing one of Shrewder

1399
01:04:38,920 --> 01:04:41,040
Speaker 2: and him, but now you've got Leak Munk as well.

1400
01:04:41,120 --> 01:04:44,040
Speaker 2: So I say that. At the same time, it's like,

1401
01:04:44,240 --> 01:04:46,200
Speaker 2: is he the backup point guard? I mean, I know

1402
01:04:46,240 --> 01:04:48,360
Speaker 2: they'll just throw guys out there together, but.

1403
01:04:48,640 --> 01:04:51,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've seen some people worrying, like you add Westbrook,

1404
01:04:51,160 --> 01:04:55,040
Speaker 1: you sort of dilute some of these other younger guys

1405
01:04:55,160 --> 01:04:58,880
Speaker 1: opportunities playing time, growth and stuff like that. But noted

1406
01:04:58,960 --> 01:05:02,600
Speaker 1: Kings fan ghost Face Siller, he said Westbrook's presence will

1407
01:05:02,640 --> 01:05:05,040
Speaker 1: not be the difference between whether Devin Carter or Nie

1408
01:05:05,160 --> 01:05:08,400
Speaker 1: Clifford become real NBA players, that's on them. If they

1409
01:05:08,440 --> 01:05:12,360
Speaker 1: can't clearly beat You're eighteen Westbrook into the rotation, then

1410
01:05:12,400 --> 01:05:13,800
Speaker 1: again that's on them. I thought that was a good

1411
01:05:13,800 --> 01:05:15,920
Speaker 1: point from Ziller. But you know, you do have to

1412
01:05:15,920 --> 01:05:18,160
Speaker 1: give these young guys an opportunity to make mistakes and

1413
01:05:18,200 --> 01:05:18,640
Speaker 1: grow too.

1414
01:05:18,680 --> 01:05:20,840
Speaker 2: So yeah, or ke On Ellis too, I mean they're

1415
01:05:20,880 --> 01:05:21,600
Speaker 2: sort of similar.

1416
01:05:21,760 --> 01:05:24,520
Speaker 4: Some teams should chase Keon Ellis because they're clearly burying him.

1417
01:05:24,560 --> 01:05:26,720
Speaker 4: They don't believe in him. If they're signing all of

1418
01:05:26,760 --> 01:05:29,560
Speaker 4: these guards to play ahead of them. It seems to

1419
01:05:29,600 --> 01:05:31,280
Speaker 4: me he would be available for a team and he's

1420
01:05:31,320 --> 01:05:33,240
Speaker 4: going to be a guy like I don't know if

1421
01:05:33,240 --> 01:05:35,440
Speaker 4: he would have the same impact, but like a Caruso

1422
01:05:35,440 --> 01:05:37,920
Speaker 4: who leaves a bad team and like looks good playing

1423
01:05:37,920 --> 01:05:41,640
Speaker 4: a smaller role on a better team. So if he's available,

1424
01:05:41,800 --> 01:05:43,080
Speaker 4: some teams should steal him from.

1425
01:05:42,960 --> 01:05:45,280
Speaker 1: Second I definitely agree that. I don't think Doug Christi

1426
01:05:45,360 --> 01:05:47,040
Speaker 1: loos Keon. I think Mike he was more of a

1427
01:05:47,080 --> 01:05:49,840
Speaker 1: Mike Brown guy when he was there. But yeah, that's

1428
01:05:49,880 --> 01:05:52,640
Speaker 1: a good point. Sticking with the Kings, Wednesday, Busy Day

1429
01:05:52,680 --> 01:05:55,320
Speaker 1: in Cowtown, Kings and fourth year forward Keegan Murray have

1430
01:05:55,360 --> 01:05:57,520
Speaker 1: agreed to a five year, one hundred and forty million

1431
01:05:57,600 --> 01:06:00,840
Speaker 1: dollar extension, and as we previously talked, Murray will miss

1432
01:06:00,880 --> 01:06:03,000
Speaker 1: the start of the season with a torn UCL in

1433
01:06:03,080 --> 01:06:06,960
Speaker 1: his left thumb. But task here here he gets this

1434
01:06:07,120 --> 01:06:10,920
Speaker 1: signed and you know, pretty good extension here for the

1435
01:06:10,960 --> 01:06:12,800
Speaker 1: fourth pick overall way back in the day. Five years

1436
01:06:12,800 --> 01:06:13,600
Speaker 1: on hundred and forty What do you.

1437
01:06:13,560 --> 01:06:18,360
Speaker 2: Think absolutely a good contract for him? I would love

1438
01:06:18,400 --> 01:06:21,280
Speaker 2: to see him. We just talked about a guy who

1439
01:06:21,280 --> 01:06:24,439
Speaker 2: gets moved into a less prominent role. We were talking

1440
01:06:24,440 --> 01:06:27,280
Speaker 2: about Kean Elis Caruso, that kind of thing. I would

1441
01:06:27,320 --> 01:06:32,000
Speaker 2: love to see the same role for Keiking Murray where

1442
01:06:32,000 --> 01:06:33,240
Speaker 2: he doesn't have to be as much because I think

1443
01:06:33,240 --> 01:06:35,400
Speaker 2: he dropped off the last two years after his really

1444
01:06:35,480 --> 01:06:38,080
Speaker 2: really good rookie year because he was just asked to

1445
01:06:38,120 --> 01:06:42,680
Speaker 2: be a little too much a percentage wise, efficiency wise,

1446
01:06:43,880 --> 01:06:48,440
Speaker 2: trying to create for himself. So is he worth that

1447
01:06:48,520 --> 01:06:51,400
Speaker 2: much money? I think so on the right team, and

1448
01:06:52,680 --> 01:06:55,200
Speaker 2: I think he hoped his percentages should go up if

1449
01:06:55,200 --> 01:06:57,560
Speaker 2: he isn't more if he doesn't have that big of

1450
01:06:57,600 --> 01:06:57,919
Speaker 2: a role.

1451
01:06:58,040 --> 01:07:00,480
Speaker 4: Really, he doesn't have hardly any role. I think that's

1452
01:07:00,480 --> 01:07:03,160
Speaker 4: one of my problems with Keegan Murray is that he

1453
01:07:03,200 --> 01:07:05,439
Speaker 4: doesn't really do anything besides shoot threes, and he wasn't

1454
01:07:05,440 --> 01:07:07,880
Speaker 4: a great three point shooter last season thirty four percent.

1455
01:07:07,920 --> 01:07:10,560
Speaker 4: Thirty six percent is league average. The year before, he

1456
01:07:10,560 --> 01:07:13,280
Speaker 4: did have a hot shooting season his rookie year, but

1457
01:07:13,320 --> 01:07:16,520
Speaker 4: his usage rate is fifteen percent. That's guys like Royce O'Neil,

1458
01:07:16,760 --> 01:07:20,840
Speaker 4: Drew Eubanks, Dalan Terry, Jonathan Mobo, guys who were nothing

1459
01:07:21,120 --> 01:07:24,320
Speaker 4: on offense. We're talking about DeAndre Ayden's free throw rate.

1460
01:07:24,480 --> 01:07:26,480
Speaker 4: How many free throws per game last season do you

1461
01:07:26,520 --> 01:07:27,480
Speaker 4: think Keagan Murray took?

1462
01:07:27,600 --> 01:07:29,680
Speaker 1: It must be low if you're asking zero.

1463
01:07:29,400 --> 01:07:32,680
Speaker 4: Point nine free throw attempts, one point four assists. All

1464
01:07:32,720 --> 01:07:35,480
Speaker 4: he does is shoot threes. But he's the most promising

1465
01:07:35,520 --> 01:07:38,400
Speaker 4: young player on the Kings. This is twenty eight million

1466
01:07:38,440 --> 01:07:41,479
Speaker 4: dollars average annual value. That's like fifteen percent of the cap.

1467
01:07:41,640 --> 01:07:43,960
Speaker 4: He's twenty five years old. They're signing him basically through

1468
01:07:43,960 --> 01:07:46,400
Speaker 4: his prime. Makes sense for Sacramento to do it, but

1469
01:07:46,440 --> 01:07:47,800
Speaker 4: it would be nice to see him be able to

1470
01:07:47,840 --> 01:07:50,440
Speaker 4: do anything else besides be a three and D guy,

1471
01:07:50,440 --> 01:07:53,480
Speaker 4: because being the best defender on the Kings isn't super impressive.

1472
01:07:54,360 --> 01:07:55,400
Speaker 1: No, no, it's not.

1473
01:07:56,440 --> 01:08:00,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think they're envisioning a team this the Beam

1474
01:08:00,600 --> 01:08:04,520
Speaker 2: team really where he was their defensive guy and a

1475
01:08:04,560 --> 01:08:08,680
Speaker 2: shooter on a team that contributed or distributed to him. Like,

1476
01:08:08,760 --> 01:08:10,320
Speaker 2: I don't think he's never gonna I don't think he's

1477
01:08:10,320 --> 01:08:12,600
Speaker 2: ever going to be a guy who scores twenty per game.

1478
01:08:13,120 --> 01:08:15,320
Speaker 2: I think if they just they just envision in their

1479
01:08:15,320 --> 01:08:19,320
Speaker 2: front office, Scott Perry says, we should be better and

1480
01:08:19,360 --> 01:08:21,400
Speaker 2: he could be that guy. Now, I think they're thinking

1481
01:08:21,439 --> 01:08:22,280
Speaker 2: a little too far ahead.

1482
01:08:23,800 --> 01:08:26,320
Speaker 1: Would you rather have Jabari Smith Junior or Keigan Murray

1483
01:08:28,240 --> 01:08:31,000
Speaker 1: because they both signed extensions five year extensions and Jabari

1484
01:08:31,040 --> 01:08:33,160
Speaker 1: Smith Junior's was five year, one hundred and twenty two million.

1485
01:08:33,280 --> 01:08:37,240
Speaker 1: Keig Murray got more, but he didn't get Jalen Johnson

1486
01:08:37,280 --> 01:08:41,080
Speaker 1: five year, one hundred and fifty million, which is probably correct.

1487
01:08:41,240 --> 01:08:43,920
Speaker 2: I think I'm taking Keegan Murray. I think his defense

1488
01:08:44,000 --> 01:08:44,920
Speaker 2: is a little underrated.

1489
01:08:45,360 --> 01:08:48,320
Speaker 1: Okay, well then it sounds like the deal, Like you said,

1490
01:08:48,320 --> 01:08:50,599
Speaker 1: fifteen percent, let's say the salary cap as it moves forward,

1491
01:08:50,640 --> 01:08:52,400
Speaker 1: that is fine, Like that is not crazy for a

1492
01:08:52,439 --> 01:08:54,680
Speaker 1: guy that's like a low end starter should be at

1493
01:08:54,680 --> 01:08:57,879
Speaker 1: the very least and you hope he gets better and improves.

1494
01:08:57,920 --> 01:09:01,360
Speaker 1: But yeah, yeah, the number Jill and Johnson, Keegan Murray,

1495
01:09:01,400 --> 01:09:03,280
Speaker 1: Jabari Smith Junior. I think some people would disagree. I

1496
01:09:03,280 --> 01:09:07,080
Speaker 1: think maybe some people put Jabari over Keigen Murray. I

1497
01:09:07,160 --> 01:09:09,360
Speaker 1: would okay, yeah, I'd rather have But they're all in

1498
01:09:09,400 --> 01:09:12,280
Speaker 1: the same all park here and young talent that you're

1499
01:09:12,320 --> 01:09:15,240
Speaker 1: going to lock up. Final extension news aj Green back

1500
01:09:15,280 --> 01:09:18,160
Speaker 1: to him and the Bucks four years, forty five million

1501
01:09:18,160 --> 01:09:22,080
Speaker 1: dollar extension TK Any thoughts on AJ Green signing this

1502
01:09:22,120 --> 01:09:23,519
Speaker 1: four years, forty five million dollar deal.

1503
01:09:23,800 --> 01:09:25,960
Speaker 4: Being a good shooter is the equivalent to being a

1504
01:09:26,000 --> 01:09:28,000
Speaker 4: seven footer in the nineteen eighties. If you can make

1505
01:09:28,040 --> 01:09:29,640
Speaker 4: forty percent of your threes, you're going to play ten

1506
01:09:29,680 --> 01:09:31,920
Speaker 4: years in the NBA and make ten million dollars per season.

1507
01:09:32,160 --> 01:09:34,840
Speaker 4: AJ Green averages seven points per game, And this deal

1508
01:09:34,880 --> 01:09:37,280
Speaker 4: comes through and you're like, nice, this is perfect. He

1509
01:09:37,320 --> 01:09:40,000
Speaker 4: has to be there around Giannis. He's a guy that

1510
01:09:40,040 --> 01:09:43,120
Speaker 4: will be able to fit around a lot of different players.

1511
01:09:43,160 --> 01:09:44,920
Speaker 4: You know, just because he shoots threes. He shoots a

1512
01:09:44,920 --> 01:09:46,679
Speaker 4: lot of them. He knocks him down and he tries

1513
01:09:47,040 --> 01:09:49,120
Speaker 4: on defense, Like I don't think he's a lockdown defender

1514
01:09:49,160 --> 01:09:51,439
Speaker 4: or anything like that. But he's not a zero on

1515
01:09:51,479 --> 01:09:54,760
Speaker 4: the defensive end as well. So ten million dollars per season,

1516
01:09:54,800 --> 01:09:56,280
Speaker 4: that's hardly anything in today's NBA.

1517
01:09:56,560 --> 01:10:01,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll guaranteed every single year, no option forgot if

1518
01:10:01,560 --> 01:10:03,840
Speaker 2: we want to watch him in the NBA Cup. He

1519
01:10:03,880 --> 01:10:06,639
Speaker 2: gets after it defensively, and he plays in the right position,

1520
01:10:07,320 --> 01:10:10,120
Speaker 2: and I think he can grow a little bit with

1521
01:10:10,240 --> 01:10:13,479
Speaker 2: his put it on the floor skill. I think he's

1522
01:10:13,840 --> 01:10:17,719
Speaker 2: decent at that. So yes, it feels like it's perfect

1523
01:10:17,760 --> 01:10:20,000
Speaker 2: around units static goopo. It's a guy who can score

1524
01:10:20,800 --> 01:10:24,400
Speaker 2: ten mil is not a lot, but they are handcuffing themselves.

1525
01:10:24,520 --> 01:10:26,720
Speaker 2: Not that this ten million dollars is to be all

1526
01:10:26,720 --> 01:10:29,320
Speaker 2: and end all, but this is their team really what

1527
01:10:29,320 --> 01:10:32,800
Speaker 2: we're seeing here. So I hope he Helpsiannis because that

1528
01:10:32,920 --> 01:10:36,280
Speaker 2: means they're doing well. But he is a skilled guy,

1529
01:10:36,280 --> 01:10:36,880
Speaker 2: there's no doubt.

1530
01:10:37,000 --> 01:10:40,320

Speaker 4: All right, next one here.

1643
01:16:29,200 --> 01:16:32,639
Speaker 1: After a pair of dramatic tweets indicating Treyung might request

1644
01:16:32,640 --> 01:16:35,360
Speaker 1: the trade out of Atlanta, the Hawk Star instead announced

1645
01:16:35,360 --> 01:16:41,040
Speaker 1: an underwhelming sponsorship with Crooked Tea. Yep, he pulled a

1646
01:16:41,160 --> 01:16:48,759
Speaker 1: Lebron Henny, Uh, what's the cringiest thing you've seen recently?

1647
01:16:48,840 --> 01:16:49,599
Speaker 1: Is the question up?

1648
01:16:49,640 --> 01:16:49,840
Speaker 4: In this?

1649
01:16:50,240 --> 01:16:53,160
Speaker 1: It was not great. We love Leftco, we love Trey Young.

1650
01:16:53,920 --> 01:16:57,479
Speaker 1: Bad timing too after the Henny Lebron thing. The thing

1651
01:16:57,560 --> 01:16:59,960
Speaker 1: was three minutes long. I definitely gave up halfway through.

1652
01:17:01,080 --> 01:17:01,720
Speaker 1: It is what it is.

1653
01:17:01,760 --> 01:17:04,400
Speaker 2: But anyway, cringest thing, why was it three minutes long?

1654
01:17:04,520 --> 01:17:07,800
Speaker 4: I don't know rosted to come in there and edit

1655
01:17:07,840 --> 01:17:11,000
Speaker 4: the hell out of that. Lebron's like thirty seconds exactly quick.

1656
01:17:11,120 --> 01:17:15,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a commercial. Yeah, length and giving a commercial

1657
01:17:15,360 --> 01:17:16,240
Speaker 2: length for a commercial.

1658
01:17:17,200 --> 01:17:20,080
Speaker 1: Crooked tea, though not sugary, is the only thing I

1659
01:17:20,080 --> 01:17:21,000
Speaker 1: really took away from that.

1660
01:17:21,160 --> 01:17:21,400
Speaker 4: I'm not.

1661
01:17:23,400 --> 01:17:25,280
Speaker 1: So there you go, pre plug for crooked tea. Get

1662
01:17:25,280 --> 01:17:27,200
Speaker 1: at us, you know what, get out us. We'll put

1663
01:17:27,240 --> 01:17:35,040
Speaker 1: crooked tea all over this.

1664
01:17:34,080 --> 01:17:39,040
Speaker 4: All right, Man, it might happen.

1665
01:17:43,600 --> 01:17:47,280
Speaker 2: I've already mentioned how I cringed eating boiled peanuts. I

1666
01:17:47,320 --> 01:17:49,920
Speaker 2: thought it would be a thing that I wanted to eat.

1667
01:17:50,360 --> 01:17:52,479
Speaker 2: I love a good nut. But there's just too many

1668
01:17:52,520 --> 01:17:55,280
Speaker 2: things that didn't go well during that, So I'll leave

1669
01:17:55,320 --> 01:17:59,200
Speaker 2: that decide. But I really i'm having flashbacks the texture,

1670
01:17:59,720 --> 01:18:03,960
Speaker 2: saw the lack of salt, too many negatives. Ah, and

1671
01:18:04,000 --> 01:18:06,280
Speaker 2: I don't want to spread this. But something also that

1672
01:18:06,360 --> 01:18:09,599
Speaker 2: was was cringey was somebody telling me, as we get

1673
01:18:09,640 --> 01:18:12,479
Speaker 2: into the colder months here, not not just me, other

1674
01:18:12,520 --> 01:18:16,160
Speaker 2: people as well, big group of people, that flu season

1675
01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:20,479
Speaker 2: is not a season. I said, oh, what does that mean?

1676
01:18:21,400 --> 01:18:25,240
Speaker 2: But he went on to say that, sure, our immune

1677
01:18:25,240 --> 01:18:27,360
Speaker 2: system is weaker when it's cold, and we are more

1678
01:18:27,360 --> 01:18:32,120
Speaker 2: susceptible to getting illness, but flu season is not a season.

1679
01:18:32,160 --> 01:18:33,880
Speaker 2: I said, Okay, maybe you're just joking around. Maybe you

1680
01:18:33,880 --> 01:18:38,000
Speaker 2: don't want the words season being sort of categorized in

1681
01:18:38,080 --> 01:18:43,320
Speaker 2: the same category as spring, fall, winter A.

1682
01:18:43,680 --> 01:18:46,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, five seasons.

1683
01:18:46,360 --> 01:18:48,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, but that's the only that's the only

1684
01:18:48,840 --> 01:18:52,400
Speaker 2: explanation here. I'm just making people dumber by saying this.

1685
01:18:52,479 --> 01:18:55,559
Speaker 2: I mean, people just literally can get sick in the winter,

1686
01:18:55,760 --> 01:18:57,519
Speaker 2: so it's called a season like we talk about the

1687
01:18:57,560 --> 01:18:58,240
Speaker 2: regular season.

1688
01:18:58,439 --> 01:19:01,439
Speaker 1: Anyway, I interpret that that person is saying you can

1689
01:19:01,439 --> 01:19:03,080
Speaker 1: get sick anytime, you can get the flu.

1690
01:19:03,240 --> 01:19:06,200
Speaker 2: But he also went on to say, logically, the scientific

1691
01:19:06,720 --> 01:19:09,960
Speaker 2: explanation of our immune system saying it can be colder.

1692
01:19:10,200 --> 01:19:11,960
Speaker 2: When it's colder, we are more susceptible.

1693
01:19:12,200 --> 01:19:13,160
Speaker 1: I would agree with that.

1694
01:19:13,320 --> 01:19:15,479
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, well flu season. The flus don't happen in

1695
01:19:15,520 --> 01:19:22,679
Speaker 2: the summer flu period, likely flu era. It's all about

1696
01:19:22,680 --> 01:19:25,320
Speaker 2: the work anyway. I just made everyone dumber, and that's

1697
01:19:25,320 --> 01:19:29,000
Speaker 2: the problem with our world. Today's still a season to me,

1698
01:19:29,360 --> 01:19:29,720
Speaker 2: thank you.

1699
01:19:30,080 --> 01:19:33,240
Speaker 4: I with you. I do believe it's a season as well.

1700
01:19:33,720 --> 01:19:35,280
Speaker 2: I don't think I'm getting my shot this year, though

1701
01:19:35,400 --> 01:19:36,360
Speaker 2: I didn't get it last year.

1702
01:19:36,400 --> 01:19:40,519
Speaker 4: I'm good season. Why do you need it? What about you?

1703
01:19:40,600 --> 01:19:44,920
Speaker 4: Two k adults doing six to seven? It's not for us.

1704
01:19:45,120 --> 01:19:47,080
Speaker 4: I'll give a pass to like teachers out there. They're

1705
01:19:47,080 --> 01:19:50,080
Speaker 4: inundated with children doing it all the time. Anytime you're

1706
01:19:50,120 --> 01:19:52,400
Speaker 4: counting and you hit six and seven in the same way.

1707
01:19:52,479 --> 01:19:56,000
Speaker 4: But uh, you just shouldn't be doing it, Okay, no

1708
01:19:56,080 --> 01:19:57,559
Speaker 4: other way to leave it to the case. It's like

1709
01:19:57,760 --> 01:20:00,360
Speaker 4: we didn't start staying skivity, so we shouldn't start six

1710
01:20:00,439 --> 01:20:02,320
Speaker 4: seven j D.

1711
01:20:03,360 --> 01:20:03,559
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1712
01:20:03,600 --> 01:20:08,080
Speaker 3: I found myself at a frat house last weekend for

1713
01:20:08,200 --> 01:20:11,760
Speaker 3: a tailgate. Caught a glimpse of myself in the in

1714
01:20:11,800 --> 01:20:16,200
Speaker 3: a mirror. Pure cringe. Man. I was like the oldest

1715
01:20:16,200 --> 01:20:19,200
Speaker 3: person there by a lot, and uh, you know.

1716
01:20:19,240 --> 01:20:20,040
Speaker 2: I was invited there.

1717
01:20:20,120 --> 01:20:23,840
Speaker 3: My son is a is a member of said fraternity

1718
01:20:23,960 --> 01:20:26,959
Speaker 3: and he was playing in a band for the tailgate.

1719
01:20:27,360 --> 01:20:32,920
Speaker 3: So you know, I was there, but yeah, didn't feel

1720
01:20:32,920 --> 01:20:33,599
Speaker 3: good about Maybe.

1721
01:20:33,439 --> 01:20:34,760
Speaker 4: It stuck around a little too long.

1722
01:20:36,439 --> 01:20:37,839
Speaker 2: I made my exit.

1723
01:20:38,520 --> 01:20:42,240
Speaker 3: I just being there was just I was making I

1724
01:20:42,280 --> 01:20:44,880
Speaker 3: could feel the cringe around me, so it was me

1725
01:20:45,040 --> 01:20:45,320
Speaker 3: I was.

1726
01:20:45,720 --> 01:20:49,560
Speaker 1: Next time, try a little six seven so yeah, yeah, yeah,

1727
01:20:49,800 --> 01:20:50,320
Speaker 1: I'll try that.

1728
01:20:51,080 --> 01:20:53,200
Speaker 4: Just make sure not to go to like a baby

1729
01:20:53,240 --> 01:20:56,280
Speaker 4: oil wrestling. Yeah, I haven went poorly for a friend

1730
01:20:56,320 --> 01:20:59,000
Speaker 4: of mine back in the day. Really yeah, my boy

1731
01:20:59,040 --> 01:21:08,080
Speaker 4: blew went to one pearl story is something.

1732
01:21:09,800 --> 01:21:12,800
Speaker 1: Ricking old school? Okay, final one here I alluded to it.

1733
01:21:13,360 --> 01:21:19,040
Speaker 1: Next week, the eightieth NBA season tips Tuesday on NBC

1734
01:21:19,120 --> 01:21:22,200
Speaker 1: and Peacock in the same place it ended last season,

1735
01:21:22,479 --> 01:21:25,920
Speaker 1: Oklahoma City because the Thunder raised the championship banner before

1736
01:21:25,960 --> 01:21:28,760
Speaker 1: hosting the Rockets Wednesday. Then we got the National Games

1737
01:21:28,760 --> 01:21:33,400
Speaker 1: on ESPN Thursday. Guys, they're on Prime. It's gonna be

1738
01:21:33,400 --> 01:21:35,400
Speaker 1: a little difficult to follow as we move forward. So

1739
01:21:35,560 --> 01:21:38,160
Speaker 1: the question is what else took some time for you

1740
01:21:38,200 --> 01:21:39,000
Speaker 1: to get used.

1741
01:21:38,840 --> 01:21:43,360
Speaker 2: To the term six to seven now? Well, actually, I

1742
01:21:43,360 --> 01:21:45,120
Speaker 2: will say one thing about six seven before I get

1743
01:21:45,160 --> 01:21:47,200
Speaker 2: to my turn.

1744
01:21:47,720 --> 01:21:48,640
Speaker 4: I don't really do this.

1745
01:21:48,840 --> 01:21:51,240
Speaker 2: The good thing that happened was that six foot seven

1746
01:21:51,280 --> 01:21:54,320
Speaker 2: foot got played. People remembered a little Wayne six foot

1747
01:21:54,360 --> 01:21:58,559
Speaker 2: seven okay, great, great to hear that instead of six up.

1748
01:22:00,240 --> 01:22:01,519
Speaker 2: It took me a while at to get used to

1749
01:22:01,600 --> 01:22:06,360
Speaker 2: using the word dope. But it's a dope word. I

1750
01:22:06,400 --> 01:22:10,240
Speaker 2: always use cool as the coolest thing, but I think

1751
01:22:10,400 --> 01:22:13,559
Speaker 2: dope is. It hasn't taken over cool, but dope is

1752
01:22:13,680 --> 01:22:17,719
Speaker 2: it's gaining some traction as in terms of the number

1753
01:22:17,720 --> 01:22:22,240
Speaker 2: one word being associated with cool things. Dope.

1754
01:22:23,800 --> 01:22:26,599
Speaker 4: What about you, Trey, Yeah, I think gen Z. Hand

1755
01:22:26,640 --> 01:22:29,759
Speaker 4: signals are tough to pick up when you're a millennial

1756
01:22:29,880 --> 01:22:31,800
Speaker 4: like I am. Like I've talked about the change from

1757
01:22:31,840 --> 01:22:36,320
Speaker 4: three pointer being like, you know, pinky ring middle and

1758
01:22:36,400 --> 01:22:40,200
Speaker 4: now it's right right right, German style, Dirk style. But

1759
01:22:40,240 --> 01:22:42,920
Speaker 4: the biggest one for me that I think is impossible

1760
01:22:42,920 --> 01:22:46,479
Speaker 4: to learn is like hearthands, Oh yeah yeah. For me,

1761
01:22:46,680 --> 01:22:48,160
Speaker 4: I love you, I love you. It is always going

1762
01:22:48,240 --> 01:22:51,560
Speaker 4: to be pinky index thumb near rock and roll. But

1763
01:22:51,600 --> 01:22:56,679
Speaker 4: we're talking about love hands uh too much. I prefer

1764
01:22:56,720 --> 01:22:57,360
Speaker 4: a one hander.

1765
01:22:58,120 --> 01:23:00,840
Speaker 1: I think that's like one hander the fact that takes

1766
01:23:00,840 --> 01:23:06,120
Speaker 1: two hands. Yeah, it's it's not good two hands using.

1767
01:23:05,880 --> 01:23:10,880
Speaker 4: Two hands, like, can you line them up? JD.

1768
01:23:11,080 --> 01:23:14,760
Speaker 1: What's something that you know is taking some time or

1769
01:23:14,800 --> 01:23:16,000
Speaker 1: took some time for you to get used to it?

1770
01:23:16,080 --> 01:23:20,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, this new setup, keep going to task when I

1771
01:23:20,240 --> 01:23:20,960
Speaker 3: mean to go to me.

1772
01:23:21,439 --> 01:23:23,600
Speaker 6: Yeah, off the top. That's happening frequently. So that's what

1773
01:23:23,880 --> 01:23:29,000
Speaker 6: you've switched cameras. You're you're on tasks. Old camera tray

1774
01:23:29,120 --> 01:23:33,160
Speaker 6: is where he was. He's he's five, yeah, but I

1775
01:23:33,360 --> 01:23:33,759
Speaker 6: was four.

1776
01:23:34,160 --> 01:23:35,160
Speaker 1: Do you have him labeled?

1777
01:23:36,000 --> 01:23:37,360
Speaker 4: No? Why not?

1778
01:23:37,640 --> 01:23:40,479
Speaker 3: No, because I'm going to get used to it. The

1779
01:23:40,520 --> 01:23:42,559
Speaker 3: thing is, it didn't make sense before. Now it kind

1780
01:23:42,600 --> 01:23:46,000
Speaker 3: of makes sense. The layout, right, so on camera one,

1781
01:23:46,280 --> 01:23:51,920
Speaker 3: this is the wide s took free as you task, yeah, tray,

1782
01:23:52,120 --> 01:23:54,760
Speaker 3: and then we got our split screen hair. It makes

1783
01:23:54,800 --> 01:23:59,559
Speaker 3: sense now. But it was so convoluted before, but now

1784
01:23:59,720 --> 01:24:01,599
Speaker 3: it's I'll get used to it.

1785
01:24:01,680 --> 01:24:01,960
Speaker 1: Okay.

1786
01:24:02,080 --> 01:24:03,720
Speaker 3: Well I'm not going to write names down.

1787
01:24:04,360 --> 01:24:05,160
Speaker 4: Why not because I.

1788
01:24:05,200 --> 01:24:07,519
Speaker 1: Barely look at Okay, it's all muscle memory.

1789
01:24:07,600 --> 01:24:08,040
Speaker 2: Yeah exactly.

1790
01:24:08,120 --> 01:24:08,680
Speaker 4: Boooooo.

1791
01:24:08,920 --> 01:24:11,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I saw when you were making the decision

1792
01:24:11,600 --> 01:24:15,120
Speaker 2: and we started moving stuff around here. Here, here goes

1793
01:24:15,160 --> 01:24:17,600
Speaker 2: the desk. Here go the cameras. You are so so

1794
01:24:17,720 --> 01:24:22,080
Speaker 2: confident even think about it for a second, I think, yeah,

1795
01:24:22,160 --> 01:24:23,880
Speaker 2: I think you'll be thanks and you get to see

1796
01:24:23,880 --> 01:24:24,680
Speaker 2: your Blue Jays hat.

1797
01:24:24,840 --> 01:24:29,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, I do like this squad box here for cool

1798
01:24:30,280 --> 01:24:32,200
Speaker 1: good stuff. All right, that's rapid fire. Not so rapid,

1799
01:24:32,240 --> 01:24:32,439
Speaker 1: is it?

1800
01:24:32,479 --> 01:24:32,559

1821
01:25:24,160 --> 01:25:28,080
Speaker 1: on Monday, a day before the NBA season starts, and

1822
01:25:28,120 --> 01:25:32,120
Speaker 1: I guess Monday means five days per week back in

1823
01:25:32,160 --> 01:25:35,600
Speaker 1: your lives because they're back here. During the build up

1824
01:25:35,640 --> 01:25:36,960
Speaker 1: to the start of the season, we're doing three days

1825
01:25:37,000 --> 01:25:39,320
Speaker 1: a week Monday, Wednesday, Friday. But next week at least

1826
01:25:39,479 --> 01:25:41,479
Speaker 1: we're going to be five days a week starting on Monday,

1827
01:25:41,640 --> 01:25:44,720
Speaker 1: getting you ready, and then Tuesday night tips and we're

1828
01:25:44,760 --> 01:25:48,439
Speaker 1: off and running. Are you pumped for real basketball? I've

1829
01:25:48,439 --> 01:25:51,640
Speaker 1: definitely reached the point where like, I don't care anymore

1830
01:25:51,720 --> 01:25:54,479
Speaker 1: at all about preseason so and so did well so

1831
01:25:54,520 --> 01:25:56,280
Speaker 1: and so I don't care anymore. I'm like, all right,

1832
01:25:56,320 --> 01:25:56,840
Speaker 1: let's play.

1833
01:25:56,680 --> 01:25:57,240
Speaker 2: The ro games.

1834
01:25:57,600 --> 01:25:58,120
Speaker 1: So it's good.

1835
01:25:58,200 --> 01:25:58,920
Speaker 2: I agree, it's good.

1836
