But let's start 28 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 2: with the games last night. We had some very entertaining ones, 29 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 2: especially that finals rematch, Celtics beating the Warriors in overtime 30 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 2: to win that finals rematch. What is that game? I 31 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 2: guess it would be Game eight because they already played 32 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 2: once this season. Party they took care of business in 33 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 2: the end, very very entertaining Game one one eighteen. Any 34 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 2: big takeaways from tast Melice on that game. 35 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 3: Well, it felt like finals because the Warriors went small. 36 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 3: You remember in the Finals they said, came on, Looney, 37 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 3: get to the bench. We're going with Otto Porter Junior 38 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 3: in the starting lineup. Now it's Jordan Poole in the 39 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:12,519 Speaker 3: starting lineup instead going small. Look like it worked because 40 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 3: they were able to slow down Jason Tatum. I thought 41 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,799 Speaker 3: Pool was pretty good defensively actually, And then it came 42 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:23,239 Speaker 3: down to the final seven minutes where the Warriors. Yeah, 43 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 3: they were up despite Al Horford doing Al Horford's stuff. 44 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,520 Speaker 3: Al Horford, because he was the big man on the floor, 45 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 3: he had to be guarded by Andrew Wiggins. He was 46 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 3: doing the two small thing multiple times. Al Horford. I 47 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 3: just I never thought I'd see the day that Al 48 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 3: Horford would be doing that on a floor. 49 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 1: Is it? 50 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 3: Is it cool now to be doing it? 51 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 1: Oh? 52 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:45,639 Speaker 2: You mean once Al Horford. 53 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 3: Doesn't, it's over. Yeah, I thought I think we've reached 54 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 3: we reached another step. I think we've got a something else. 55 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 3: Gott happened, something else. We gotta evolve. The kids will 56 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 3: come out with something else because the thing soon. Yeah, 57 00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,839 Speaker 3: it's a little too much. Anyways, the Celtics were down 58 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 3: with seven minutes left to play in the fourth, but 59 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 3: they're able to use their size they actually had. They 60 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 3: went downsize themselves to adapt to the Warriors play, either 61 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 3: playing Horford at the five or Robert Williams at the five, 62 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,640 Speaker 3: not going two bigs. So you saw Steph Curry be 63 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:19,920 Speaker 3: able to get into the lane to make it a 64 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 3: three point game with twenty eight seconds left, and then bang, 65 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,680 Speaker 3: Jalen Brown hits a three on the other side after 66 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:28,920 Speaker 3: a flub by Jordan Poole to tie it to go 67 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 3: into overtime. So yeah, the Celtics ran away with it 68 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 3: in overtime. But I think the Warriors lineup change makes 69 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 3: them feel confident against this Boston Celtics team. It was 70 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 3: fun going down to the wire, but I think they 71 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 3: feel like they can beat this Boston Celtics team. And 72 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 3: it was weird to see Jason Tatum's game where he 73 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 3: had a bad shooting night, although you know he left 74 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 3: the floor in the first quarter and sat down. That 75 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 3: was his last rest for the entire game, which was 76 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 3: pretty neat. Played the second quarter, the third quarter, the 77 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 3: fourth quarter and overtime, but didn't shoot well, contributed in 78 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 3: other areas even though he turned the ball over seven times. 79 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 3: I think the Warriors feel pretty good. I think Steve 80 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 3: Kerr really going for it with that small ball lineup, 81 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 3: really trying to spark something in the Warriors this second 82 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 3: half because they haven't. They haven't been Warriors, like they 83 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 3: haven't been what they were last season. 84 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 1: That was a real game of basketball, like kimp, felt 85 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,359 Speaker 1: like a playoff atmosphere. Was such a great game that 86 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,600 Speaker 1: Eshua he was an Atlanta Hawks fan yesterday. Apparently now 87 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,280 Speaker 1: he's a Boston Celtics fan after last night. That's pretty 88 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 1: crazy to me. They could turn just like that. But 89 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:33,279 Speaker 1: when you see Brown, Horford, Tatum all hitting huge threes 90 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 1: down the stretch, I thought that was big. You're right, 91 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 1: Jordan Poole, he was competing in that game, but massive 92 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: brain fart to completely lose Brown for a wide open 93 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 1: three there after Horford had just hit one. Draymond said, 94 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 1: I can't help Al Horford. Yeah, so I thought, you know, 95 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 1: that's as the Anthony Slater explained today at the Athletic, 96 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 1: that's what happens when you'll play Kevon Looney. Because Looney 97 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 1: wasn't in for the previous offensive possession, Celtics g the 98 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,720 Speaker 1: ball back, they don't call a time out, and then 99 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:04,480 Speaker 1: they're able to take advantage of Pool being out there 100 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 1: and just being a little bit of a space get at. 101 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: So Boston had eighteen offensive rebounds. They got a ton 102 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 1: of them in the fourth quarter. Golden State had seventeen turnovers, 103 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: almost a low number for them. So the possession game 104 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 1: went to Boston, and that was good when neither team 105 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 1: could shoot the ball. I do think Steph Curry should 106 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:22,839 Speaker 1: have pulled up from the logo at the end of 107 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,039 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter after he hit the one at halftime, 108 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 1: he should have taken another half court shot. Nobody would 109 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:31,039 Speaker 1: get mad if he took it. It was a tie game, 110 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 1: a little bit a better shot. 111 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 3: That was an amazing shot. 112 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 1: The Celtics, though, they tried to throw this thing away 113 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 1: at the end. They had some insane turnovers like great 114 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 1: defensive stop, turnover at half court multiple times, and then 115 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: the near turnover. I think it was Jalen Brown that 116 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: actually ended up saving it on the far sideline there 117 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:52,839 Speaker 1: was That was awesome. That's basketball. 118 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 3: Yeah, Tatum has room to grow against the Warriors, that's 119 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 3: for sure. He can play a lot better. But yeah, 120 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,039 Speaker 3: back to that shot real quick. It's cool for a 121 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 3: guy who's won four championships in Steph Curry none at all. 122 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:06,720 Speaker 3: Call him whatever you want, top ten player of all time, 123 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 3: top five player of all time, if that's your thing, 124 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 3: to be doing something different than he's ever done. I 125 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 3: don't think he's ever done that steal at half like 126 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 3: that steal bomb, that was money. I know. 127 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 2: It is weird with I mean with Curry, it's like 128 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,359 Speaker 2: when you got the steel, you're like he's going to 129 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 2: hit that, like you're you're you're thinking it's going to 130 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 2: be weirder if he doesn't hit it, And I can't. 131 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 2: I can't think of many other players in history where 132 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,919 Speaker 2: you would think a guy from half court at the 133 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 2: end of a half is is more likely to make 134 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 2: it than not. But you did, and of course it 135 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:39,479 Speaker 2: goes in. But yeah, the one at the end of 136 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 2: was that regulation there on the sideline in front of 137 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 2: the bench fading away. I mean, it's Curry, so there's 138 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,040 Speaker 2: no really truly bad shot, but I'm with you TK 139 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 2: just facing up probably would have been a better shot. 140 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,600 Speaker 2: The Celtics big though, I mean more love for for 141 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 2: Horford with the twenty ten Robert Williams I thought won 142 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 2: them this game, and part of it is the Warriors 143 00:06:57,880 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 2: going small and Luney not being out there for a 144 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 2: good time convening only played twenty minutes. Robert Williams though 145 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 2: in his twenty seven minutes of time, lord, it's seven 146 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 2: offensive rebounds and so many of those were like timely 147 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 2: offensive rebounds to obviously extend the possession and end in 148 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 2: a Celtics bucket. So yeah, those two bigs, I mean 149 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 2: this I mean, look, if we get this finals rematch again, 150 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 2: no one's going to be upset. They play entertaining games. 151 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 2: There's that differing of styles. Yeah, do you go really small, 152 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 2: do you go really big? Try and abuse him inside 153 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 2: because you have Horford, you can still shoot. It's a 154 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 2: great matchup between these two teams, and they give us 155 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 2: another entertaining one. 156 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, the coaches are going for it, that's for sure. 157 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 3: Kerr making that coaching maneuver real, real smart. He's saying, 158 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 3: let Al Horford do his too small and try and 159 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 3: beat us. Let Robert Williams try and beat us, while 160 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 3: we'll try and take away the wings. And Joe Mozzoli 161 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 3: had that really really smart maneuver there at the end 162 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 3: to not call a timeout because yeah, the Jordan Poole 163 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 3: flub of not covering Jalen Brown happened because they couldn't 164 00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 3: go offense to defense and get their defensive lineup out there. 165 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 3: Coaching middle of the season pretty exciting. 166 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 2: I'll need somebody out there to do the research for 167 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 2: me because this just might be my like selective memory. 168 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 2: I feel like Jalen Brown is lights out in overtime periods. 169 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 2: I think this guy like he's such an athlete that 170 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 2: he doesn't tire all that much and seems to be 171 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 2: more explosive than a lot of people who have played 172 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 2: forty minutes up to that point. But somebody go fact 173 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 2: check me on that, because it just feels like every 174 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 2: Celtics overtime game I've seen over the last couple years, 175 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 2: it feels like Jalen Brown, even if he's having a 176 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 2: bad game through regulation, has a couple of baskets, makes 177 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 2: a big play and stuff like that. I feel like 178 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 2: that guy is an overtime guy. I don't know if 179 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 2: anybody agrees with me. Again, it's just like in my head, 180 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 2: it feels like every Celtics overtime game, that guy makes 181 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 2: like a couple of big baskets and helps them get 182 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 2: the victory more times than not. But somebody have to 183 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 2: check that because I'm not doing it. IM couldn't even 184 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 2: figure out how to do it. 185 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 1: He's thirty nine percent from the field in first overtime 186 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 1: segment this year. 187 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 2: Okay, well that's not amazing. No, no, not at all. 188 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 3: What about I thought I always think him as a 189 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 3: first quarter guy. 190 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 2: Well yeah, yeah, times does that for sure. Yeah, he'll 191 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 2: have those fifteen point first quarters. Yeah, last night he 192 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,199 Speaker 2: struggled like six to eighteen, but then in the end, 193 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 2: like you know, Brown hits that big three. Tatum had 194 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 2: a big three. Like these guys didn't have great games, 195 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 2: but man, they sure have a knack for timing. 196 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 1: I mean Tatum had thirty four and nineteen. Well, yeah, 197 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 1: he didn't shoot the ball well, but nobody shot the 198 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 1: ball well last night. So I think thirty four and 199 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 1: nineteen in a poor shooting night, thoughts, that's an awesome game. Dude, 200 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 1: Loone should have played more. I think that was a 201 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 1: mistake by Steve Kurry. I understand why he did it, 202 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: but Looney was instrumental last year. So I think you 203 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:41,560 Speaker 1: see Boston crushing him on the glass and that's a 204 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 1: huge that's a huge reason that the Celtics won last night. 205 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 1: So Steve Kerr said he's gonna keep rolling with Pool 206 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,319 Speaker 1: as the starting in the starting lineup because Pool plays 207 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,200 Speaker 1: a lot harder when he's in the starting lineup and 208 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 1: you can kind of hide him a little bit more 209 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 1: since he's out there with better defenders. But Looney, man, 210 00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 1: he goes to the bench willingly. That's the good thing. 211 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 1: It's like he doesn't care if he's starting or not starting, 212 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:02,600 Speaker 1: but he should be starting. 213 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a detriment to him because he's great coming 214 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 3: off the bench, while Jordan Pool plays better as a starter. 215 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 3: So even though Pool's solid as a bench player, because 216 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:15,839 Speaker 3: Looney is so good coming off the bench, he says, 217 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 3: all right, let's throw that guy onto the bench and 218 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,320 Speaker 3: see what we can get from Pool from the starting lineup. 219 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 3: But Jason Tatum definitely can play better, way better. He 220 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 3: had seven turnovers, those ugly turnovers at the end. It 221 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 3: felt like the finals again for Jason Tatum. So that's 222 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 3: that's the thing he can he can get better. So 223 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 3: I guess there's some positivity from that side. But when 224 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 3: they're playing pace and space out there, man, the shots 225 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:40,599 Speaker 3: are just going up. The Celtics had one hundred and 226 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 3: eight shots in this game. Obviously there's an overtime period, 227 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 3: but yeah, still that's a boatload. That's a lot. And 228 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 3: the Warriors got up to one hundred shots too, So 229 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:50,839 Speaker 3: it was it was fun. 230 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:52,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a really fun game. All right, Well, 231 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:54,719 Speaker 2: let's keep it moving here. We're gonna have to get 232 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 2: on a plane and go overseas for this one. We'll 233 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 2: go to Paris, is where we're gonna land. Jad was 234 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 2: just there. Zach Lavine scored thirty as the Bulls defeated 235 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,599 Speaker 2: the Pistons on the other side of the pond, and 236 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 2: he thoughts, there, TK yeah, late. 237 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 1: Two rows on de tour. The Bulls are back fresh 238 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 1: in French suckers. The Bulls beat a bad team. Are 239 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 1: you kidding me? Pro party right now? This was actually 240 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 1: an entertaining game, really back and forth. Definitely got out 241 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 1: of hand at the end there, but it was an 242 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:30,439 Speaker 1: eight point game with seven minutes left. Detroit, though then 243 00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 1: scored five points for the last seven minutes of the 244 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 1: game until garbage time. They got a couple of things there, 245 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:38,440 Speaker 1: Derek Jones Junior four really cool dunks. But the story 246 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,200 Speaker 1: is zach Lavine thirty points last night. Seven straight games 247 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,080 Speaker 1: with twenty five or more. His first twenty games of 248 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,679 Speaker 1: the season twenty one points per game, forty percent from 249 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,319 Speaker 1: the field, thirty five from three. People were saying, this 250 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: is a mistake of a contract, get him out of here. 251 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 1: Every other team in the league was like, sure, we'll 252 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: take that guy. Guess what next twenty five games, twenty 253 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: six points per game, fifty from the field, forty from 254 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 1: three to eighty five line. He has gotten his legs 255 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 1: under him, and the Bulls seem to be a little 256 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 1: bit more of an equal opportunity team right now. They 257 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 1: actually took care of business against a bad team, which 258 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: has been their achilles heel so far this season. But 259 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 1: if you're saying that Celtics Warriors felt like a playoff game, 260 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: this honestly felt like an All Star game. Adam Silver 261 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: even said it's the closest thing to a European All 262 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 1: Star game that we had. We had NBA legends all 263 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:29,320 Speaker 1: over the place, mostly either with French connections or Bulls 264 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:32,679 Speaker 1: or Pistons connections. Sometimes they had Ben Wallace and Rip 265 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 1: Hamilton out there, both Bulls legends. Of course, Wenby was 266 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 1: sitting in front row, which was cool. Pharrell was there, 267 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 1: Adam Silver was there, charl Leclair, Pierre Ghastly and Esteban 268 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,959 Speaker 1: Okhann were there, and skeets Yep. Magic Johnson was there. 269 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:48,680 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, he was. 270 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:55,720 Speaker 1: Honestly, it was looking good. Magic's looking a little more 271 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 1: trim and fit. And then I started thinking back to 272 00:12:58,080 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 1: that video he posted of like he was out of 273 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 1: a working out on his yacht. Yeah, I'm thinking he 274 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 1: might score like four or five points against Oh, be. 275 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 2: A closer game and one of your favorites obviously joking 276 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 2: Miller there too, with quite a fit. 277 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 3: He was wearing. 278 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:16,680 Speaker 1: He was wearing a sweats He was wearing a sweat 279 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 1: sea with a wild robe over top a cool crochet 280 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:23,320 Speaker 1: hat and then crocks crocs the seal it he dressed up. 281 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 3: Jo Noah got a fit off was the caption. Getting 282 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 3: a fit off is just putting on whatever you want 283 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 3: and it just has to be a little loud. It 284 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:34,560 Speaker 3: could just be whatever you want, but you're getting a 285 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 3: fit off. I was Joe the Stars that you just listened. 286 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 3: That's all I was looking for. And I was hoping 287 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 3: that Killian Hayes born in America but played in France, 288 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 3: grew up in France, would have a better game than that. 289 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 2: Yeah he did not. He scored four points on two 290 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 2: of thirteen shooting. 291 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:51,839 Speaker 3: And he's been playing so good. 292 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:54,679 Speaker 2: Yeah he has that sucks, but he was really struggling 293 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:55,439 Speaker 2: to get it. 294 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 3: Sucks. Trey Son. 295 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,960 Speaker 2: Some nice times. I guess it was the highlight reel 296 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:07,280 Speaker 2: for him. Also, Pistons rookie Jayalen Duran, remember he had 297 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 2: misplaced his passport. We didn't think he was gonna make 298 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 2: it over there and play in this game. He ended 299 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:14,719 Speaker 2: up getting that all settled. Played had a perfect shooting game, 300 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 2: four for four from the field, eleven points, twelve boards. 301 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 1: He was good. 302 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, he played really well for the Pistons. But yeah, 303 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 2: Bulls took care of business in front of all the 304 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 2: all of the celebrities there, including, like you said, Silver himself. 305 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 1: I love the people. 306 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 2: Court looked cool, like it looked similar to the game 307 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 2: in Mexico City. Not the design wasn't exactly the same, 308 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:35,200 Speaker 2: but like where it was in the paint and stuff 309 00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 2: like that same sort of color palette. I think the 310 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 2: crowd was into it totally. Yeah, definitely it was loud. 311 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 2: I kept explaining to the girls why they're hearing it 312 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 2: in like the broadcast in French. 313 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 1: In the backgrounds. I also saw there's a couple of 314 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 1: lower thirds that popped up on the Bulls broadcast that 315 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 1: said both zach Lavine and DeMar de Rosen have now 316 00:14:56,120 --> 00:15:00,360 Speaker 1: scored twenty five or more points in four different countries, well, 317 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 1: the United States, Canada, France, and then I think it's 318 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 1: Mexico City for both of them. 319 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 2: I think it was the fourth one that wasn't this season, 320 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 2: that was just in their NBA career. 321 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 1: Wow against each other. I feel like we did have 322 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 1: a Spurs Wolves game I think city once upon a 323 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 1: time that. 324 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 2: Was the one that was maybe delayed with the. 325 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, there was a haze of some sort yeah, yeah, yeah, 326 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 1: all right, any other thoughts on No, No, most pistons 327 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 1: in Paris? 328 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 2: All right, dwell Embiid thirty two points, seventy six Ers 329 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 2: top the Blazers one oh five ninety five, Philly's fourth 330 00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 2: straight win.

Uh, they're rolling there on this 331 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:41,440 Speaker 2: five game road trip out west, one more to go, 332 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 2: and they want all of them. They're they're they're greedy, 333 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 2: I guess sort of, Doc Rivers was saying. But they 334 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 2: are now tied with the Bucks in second place. And 335 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:52,840 Speaker 2: Embiid is I mean, he's on his seventh straight game 336 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 2: with thirty or more points. And I love, you know, 337 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 2: watch a Sixers game from the start, because right now 338 00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 2: Embiid is killing teams, like in the five minutes of 339 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 2: a game, like he's going out there with that mindset 340 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 2: setting the tone early. Yeah, ten points in the first 341 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 2: six minutes seventeen of the half, and they got up 342 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 2: a big lead sort of Blazers came back a little 343 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 2: bit but pulled it out in the end. 344 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think in Beid's a little bit invigorated just 345 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 3: because of the balance on this team. Now with Maxi 346 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:18,160 Speaker 3: coming off the bench, he knows he can go hard 347 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 3: for stretches instead of just being the focal point for 348 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 3: forty eight minutes, he can chill for a little bit. 349 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 3: And because it's such a heavy usage team between him 350 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 3: and Hard and Harden doing his thing, and yeah, they 351 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 3: come in spurts at you. Now they got a great 352 00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:35,760 Speaker 3: rhythm going, great flow going. Max comes off the bench 353 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 3: and is the energizer guy who plays at the end 354 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 3: of the games and was key in the fourth quarter 355 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 3: in this one. So kudos to that guy. He's taken 356 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 3: that in stride for a young player. Maybe not maybe 357 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,320 Speaker 3: not go that way for a lot of young players, 358 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 3: but he is just taking it and run with it 359 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 3: and literally because that's what he does. But it's helped 360 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 3: this team. The balance is perfect because those two guys 361 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 3: are so heavy usage. You don't get enough out of 362 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 3: Maxiine now it's happening. 363 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 2: Any thoughts on the Sixers win streak here, I think it's. 364 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:10,879 Speaker 1: Impressive that it's all on the road. I mean, this 365 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 1: is all teams. If you're looking at the schedule that 366 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 1: you would say the Clipper or the Sixers should go 367 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 1: out and beat them, the Jazz, Lakers, Clippers, and now 368 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,680 Speaker 1: the Blazers last night. But they are all on the road. 369 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 1: So to stack up those wins to now be tied 370 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 1: for second in the Eastern Conference. They've been at worst 371 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:30,680 Speaker 1: the second best team in the East for the second 372 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:35,240 Speaker 1: quarter of the season and seems to be working okay 373 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:38,399 Speaker 1: right now. People are very healthy, they seem to be 374 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:41,639 Speaker 1: buying into their roles, like tass is saying. So for 375 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:44,399 Speaker 1: a little bit of a drama start season for Philadelphia, 376 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 1: they've completely flipped it on their heads and they got 377 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 1: to be taken seriously. I do think in the. 378 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,879 Speaker 2: East, yeah and hearted in this one triple double, sixteen points, 379 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 2: fourteen assists, ten rebounds. I mean, his the timing and 380 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,919 Speaker 2: accuracy as a playmaker, especially in the pick and roll there, 381 00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,640 Speaker 2: which twelve beat is like that is good luck trying 382 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:01,639 Speaker 2: to figure that out. Especially if em bead has like 383 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:05,160 Speaker 2: the little jumper going from around that free throw line area, 384 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:08,200 Speaker 2: then it's a nightmare because it's like he can pop 385 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 2: out there obviously can roll the rim. I think James 386 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 2: Harden is I all wanted to say. I was thinking 387 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 2: about this, is James Harden the greatest bounce pass pass forever? 388 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 2: I think that guy just throws incredible bounce passes. Its 389 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 2: a pocket pass quick. He's on the short list in 390 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 2: NBA history. And I was just on a podcast on 391 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:29,640 Speaker 2: I Guess Wednesday, after we did two of our own 392 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:31,879 Speaker 2: the NBA University Podcast. We were trying to pick our 393 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 2: Eastern Conference All Stars and we'll get to the voting 394 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 2: results in a second. I think we'll make our picks 395 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,720 Speaker 2: on next week's drop. But anyway, we got into the 396 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,879 Speaker 2: debate of, like James Harden, you know, is he gonna 397 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 2: make his I guess eleventh All Star team here or 398 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:48,440 Speaker 2: will that good chunk of games he did miss when 399 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,560 Speaker 2: you compare him to others like DeRozan or other players 400 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 2: that'll be like right there possibly getting in. Will he 401 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,919 Speaker 2: get bumped for that? But the play he's played recently, 402 00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 2: I mean he's played like that James Harden All Star level. 403 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:01,639 Speaker 2: And it's not the already points a game. It's this 404 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 2: playmaking and doing everything else. 405 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 3: And getting up to the second seed would help a 406 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 3: lot with the coaches who definitely look at that because 407 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:10,680 Speaker 3: they're right there. They're tied with the Bucks for the 408 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 3: second seed, and the Bucks are dropping a little bit. 409 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:15,440 Speaker 3: The Nets are obviously dropping a little bit. They had 410 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:17,400 Speaker 3: that second seed for a while, so that would help 411 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 3: a lot. What's helped a lot is just this, It's 412 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 3: such a clear hierarchy. Now, if emb doesn't take a shot, okay, 413 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 3: it's up to you, Harden, And so he doesn't have 414 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:29,639 Speaker 3: to think about getting Maxie involved anymore. Really until the 415 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 3: end of the game. It's just those two dudes. So yeah, 416 00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:36,480 Speaker 3: he's he's he's good when he knows that it's it's 417 00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:39,120 Speaker 3: his job. But it's a clear number one number two. 418 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,680 Speaker 3: For the first time I feel like in James Harden's 419 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 3: career that he's he's really just you know, besides his okay, 420 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:47,959 Speaker 3: see days just giving it up to embiid. It's working nice, 421 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:48,399 Speaker 3: all right. 422 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 2: This next game, I tried to bury as deep as 423 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:53,159 Speaker 2: I could here in the rundown D'Angelo Russell. He scored 424 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:56,359 Speaker 2: sixteen of his I believe twenty five in the fourth 425 00:19:56,440 --> 00:20:01,359 Speaker 2: quarter as the Wolves beat the Raptors. People are saying 426 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,480 Speaker 2: the final nail in the coffin of the Raptor shitty 427 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 2: season here. We'll see what they do at the deadline, 428 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 2: but a brutal loss task we can start with on 429 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 2: this with just an absolute brutal loss by the Raptors, 430 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:15,920 Speaker 2: who scored seven points in the final basically ten minutes 431 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:18,200 Speaker 2: of this game in a game where they scored a 432 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 2: lot of points. Offense was not the issue. They're actually 433 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:24,560 Speaker 2: hitting threes, but their defense is a joke and they 434 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 2: can't stop anybody, and it might that feels like a 435 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:29,199 Speaker 2: rap to me. On we'll see what again they do 436 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:31,239 Speaker 2: at the deadline and all that, but they're not. 437 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 3: They're not. 438 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:33,960 Speaker 2: They're not scaring anyone because they can't stop anyone. 439 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:37,840 Speaker 3: Mm hmm, I'll bury them even further. Let's talk about 440 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:41,480 Speaker 3: the Wolves. Listen, Scotty was great. It was nice to 441 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:44,160 Speaker 3: see Scotty flowing. This is this is great Scotty right now. 442 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:48,120 Speaker 3: But yeah, enough of that. I think the Wolves are 443 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:51,200 Speaker 3: starting to they're starting to play the best that they've 444 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 3: played all season long in terms of a stretch here, 445 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:59,359 Speaker 3: getting so much from their role players. Yeah, they they 446 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:02,880 Speaker 3: are ball and it's a kind of if they get 447 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:05,439 Speaker 3: to going back when Karl Anthony Towns and Rudy Gobert 448 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 3: come back. You'll look at the stretch and say, it 449 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 3: was so nice for those guys to take on prominent 450 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 3: roles because now they're balling like Kyle Anderson, especially in 451 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:16,680 Speaker 3: the starting lineup. I don't know what happens when they're 452 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 3: entirely healthy. If Russell and Edwards are their back court 453 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:21,200 Speaker 3: and Gobaron Towns are their front court and they want 454 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 3: to start Jane McDaniels, who is their best perimeter player, 455 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 3: who is balling right now? What happens to Kyle Anderson? 456 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 3: But at least they have that problem. That's a good 457 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:31,200 Speaker 3: problem to have. The guy is so fun to watch, 458 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 3: even if he is in slow motion twenty ten and 459 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:36,680 Speaker 3: six in this one coming off a game prior to that, 460 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 3: he was thirteen eleven and eight, coming off a game 461 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 3: prior to that, thirteen eleven and ten. This is exactly 462 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:44,439 Speaker 3: what they envisioned, the connector, that type of guy. And 463 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,240 Speaker 3: then you go deeper with nas Reed who is balling 464 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 3: off the bench, Torrian Prince, who is a great connector 465 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 3: Jalen Noel. This is the team that they envisioned, and 466 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 3: I think they're having a great stretch, even though you 467 00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:59,880 Speaker 3: know they're still under five hundred currently and had tough losses. 468 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:04,200 Speaker 3: At least they're finding and scrapping unlike the other guys 469 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:06,399 Speaker 3: on the other side that we don't need to talk about. 470 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 3: But the Freddy thing is interesting to me because the 471 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 3: rumors coming up from our shamp Sherani at the Athletic 472 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:16,880 Speaker 3: that the Sons are looking at him. I don't know, 473 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:18,719 Speaker 3: That's all I gotta say. And that's the most interesting 474 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 3: thing about the Raptors. Who they're going to trade to 475 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 3: be honest. 476 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:23,240 Speaker 2: Yeah it is. And it's really getting down to me. 477 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:25,919 Speaker 2: It's like, are they going to trade who? Because especially 478 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 2: after a bad year for him, has played really well 479 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 2: recently in fred van Vleet, Like now this stretch is 480 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,199 Speaker 2: like this is sort of the van Vleet that we 481 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:36,439 Speaker 2: sort of saw last year as an all star for 482 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 2: this little stretch at least saving that trade value a 483 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:41,880 Speaker 2: little bit and all that. Does a team want him 484 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,919 Speaker 2: still see him as a key piece or is it Ojiannaobi? 485 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 2: And the latest report from Dug Smith, who covers the 486 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 2: Raptors for a very long time, is that the price 487 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:51,840 Speaker 2: has may be gone down a little bit for og 488 00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:55,160 Speaker 2: instead of the old Donovan Mitchell package to get Og. 489 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 2: According to Dug Smith, now it's two promising players, young players, 490 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,560 Speaker 2: and possibly a first round pick, which I think is 491 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 2: more in line with way more the value of an Oganorobi, 492 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 2: and I tweeted this morning if the Pelicans wanted Og, 493 00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 2: I think they have the pieces to possibly make something 494 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 2: happen there. They've got picks, They've got promising young players 495 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 2: that they really could pick and choose from who they 496 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:23,639 Speaker 2: would offer to the Raptors Raptors as the Raptors diehard, 497 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,520 Speaker 2: I would want trade Murphy the third. I think Griff 498 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:29,440 Speaker 2: would say, no, we're not putting him in any deal. 499 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:32,679 Speaker 2: But maybe it's a Daniels, Maybe it's a Herb Jones, 500 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:34,920 Speaker 2: maybe it's a Jackson Hayes. Maybe it's Akira Lewis junior. 501 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,120 Speaker 2: Anyway you could get there. But yeah, you're right, we're 502 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:40,399 Speaker 2: just waiting to see which one they trade. I think 503 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,880 Speaker 2: Og or Van Vliet. It feels like to me, would 504 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 2: you agree from an outsider's perspective. 505 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:49,640 Speaker 1: Those are the two names you're definitely hearing the most. 506 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,400 Speaker 1: And I guess with Van Vliet's contract kind of coming 507 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 1: to an end at the end, of this season. He's 508 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 1: got a player option for next year. That makes sense. 509 00:23:56,680 --> 00:24:00,679 Speaker 1: Gary Trent Junior is as van lead as well. So 510 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:04,240 Speaker 1: I think those two guys are Gary Trent Junior feels 511 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 1: like a guarantee to me, a Gary t to me, 512 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:11,320 Speaker 1: og maybe so, just because so many teams are gonna 513 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,680 Speaker 1: want them, especially contending teams like both the Pelicans and 514 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 1: Grizzlies should be after og Anobi. Not to mention all 515 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 1: the other teams, but they like timeline wise, competitive wise, 516 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:25,119 Speaker 1: he would be perfect for both of those teams. But 517 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,720 Speaker 1: you're I feel like Siakam is kind of off the 518 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 1: board right now. Oh yeah, it feels like to me, 519 00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 1: I look, who knows. 520 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 2: The second half of the Raptor season. I mean it 521 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:38,719 Speaker 2: should just be Scottie Barnes development, possibly even more as 522 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:40,919 Speaker 2: a playmaker as the point guard. They we saw some 523 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 2: of that in this game. It's try and get some 524 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:46,639 Speaker 2: young pieces into this roster, try and find a center, 525 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 2: some more point guard play, and it's likely lose a 526 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 2: bunch of games. And part of that would probably be 527 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:55,920 Speaker 2: I've said it in a million times. I don't people 528 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 2: don't like to hear it. But the shutting down of 529 00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:59,720 Speaker 2: particular star players like a Siaka and maybe you don't 530 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:01,159 Speaker 2: even have to because they don't play defense and they 531 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:03,679 Speaker 2: can't stop anybody. The Wolves caught a late flight on 532 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:07,120 Speaker 2: Wednesday night after playing in Denver in a close game 533 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 2: with them. They I think you lose an hour asleep 534 00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 2: in that you know, travel, there's no route, there's no 535 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:16,680 Speaker 2: carl and they had all the excuses to lose this game. 536 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:20,879 Speaker 2: And it's still like the Raptors have no fight on 537 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 2: the defensive end, and they couldn't put them away too. 538 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:24,959 Speaker 2: Raptors were up and then he just could not bury 539 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 2: them because they just lack that. And so again, yeah, 540 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 2: Russell was huge in the fourth and they deserve to 541 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:32,480 Speaker 2: win this game like they took it from Ohji had 542 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:34,119 Speaker 2: a chance to win it at the end, had a 543 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:36,920 Speaker 2: good look and you know he's struggling with the shot 544 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 2: right now, so we'll see. 545 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, you know what, I'm happy. 546 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,200 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. One more thing. I'm happy at this point 547 00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 2: because now the Raptors, which were usually at the top 548 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,640 Speaker 2: of my viewing list on any night that they're playing 549 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:52,720 Speaker 2: in the Association, they're going down two three slots. Like 550 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:56,680 Speaker 2: now I will I will obviously check in and I'll 551 00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 2: keep my eye on them still. But I am now like, oh, 552 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 2: Celtics Warriors, yeah, or this great game between two other teams. Now, 553 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:06,639 Speaker 2: it's not like mandatory viewing when your team starts to 554 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:10,880 Speaker 2: like not have any backbone and they're sort of crappy 555 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:11,359 Speaker 2: to watch. 556 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:14,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like when League Pass was invented. Watch the 557 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:16,640 Speaker 3: Raptors for years and years and that was the only 558 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:18,400 Speaker 3: thing to watch it, and then you can watch other 559 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 3: good deals that happened. We've talked about so many trade scenarios. 560 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 3: I'm sure we've had an og Annoby to the Pelicans 561 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:33,160 Speaker 3: offer we made a beautiful Boardrome made a beautiful board. Yeah, 562 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 3: it was I think. I think Herbert Jones was the 563 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 3: the big piece coming back, one of the pieces come back, 564 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:42,520 Speaker 3: and another one because it's an upgrade. It's an upgrade 565 00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:45,159 Speaker 3: for the Pals to go from Herb Jones slash tra 566 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:47,880 Speaker 3: Murphy to og Anenobi as the you know, the defensive guy. 567 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:50,119 Speaker 3: We've done it. Yeah, I just I was trying to 568 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 3: look forward to to DM it to David Griffin to say, 569 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:56,679 Speaker 3: this is this is your your template, tinker, do what 570 00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:59,240 Speaker 3: you want. But we've had some good. 571 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:02,640 Speaker 2: Ones, I said, again on Twitter, I said Dyson Daniels, 572 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:06,359 Speaker 2: I said Jackson, Hayes, Kira Lewis junior for og with 573 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 2: a pick with a first round pick, you know people 574 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:09,960 Speaker 2: are gonna say, make it the Lakers pick whatever a 575 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 2: first round pick. I had some people responding Pelicans fans 576 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 2: apparently they'd rather include herb Jones. 577 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:18,640 Speaker 3: Yeah than Daniels. Yeah. 578 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:21,399 Speaker 2: I was like, Okay, I'm not angry. I'm not that 579 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 2: angry with that. No the raps man. So we can 580 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 2: make this happen. Let's go Griff, Let's do it on 581 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 2: no dunks. We'll get Messiah on the horn, We'll get 582 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 2: Griff on the horror. We got a relationship with both 583 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,880 Speaker 2: of those people. Yeah, there could be something there. Final game, 584 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 2: mckail Bridges scored twenty eight. Sons beat the Nets to 585 00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:40,920 Speaker 2: snap their skid, but the Brooklyn Nets continue to lose 586 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,680 Speaker 2: with no kad. Kim Johnson returned. 587 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 3: He's back. 588 00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 2: Caught me by surprise. I didn't know this was happening, 589 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 2: but he came back from a two month injury there 590 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 2: with that torn moniscus. He played all right off the bench, 591 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 2: nineteen points six boards to assist two blocks in a 592 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:57,400 Speaker 2: steel You talk about a guy that's like a glue guy. 593 00:27:57,600 --> 00:27:59,879 Speaker 2: Absolutely really helped him out and they controlled most of 594 00:27:59,880 --> 00:28:01,879 Speaker 2: this game. They're up twenty, then Kyrie went sort of 595 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,119 Speaker 2: nuts in the fourth quarter, made it a game, but 596 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:07,200 Speaker 2: in the end they lose again. Any thoughts TK on 597 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:08,400 Speaker 2: on the Suns or Nets here. 598 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess Cam Johnson was just working on his 599 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 1: free throws for the entirety of his injury. Went nine 600 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:15,120 Speaker 1: for nine at the free throw line. The Suns need points, 601 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 1: so him coming back being able to shoot that was awesome. 602 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:20,960 Speaker 1: No surprise to me that Kyrie Irving set out for 603 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 1: the San Antonio Spurs game right back in the lineup 604 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:26,520 Speaker 1: for the national TV game, though he waited too long 605 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:28,840 Speaker 1: to try and play in this one. Twenty one points 606 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:30,800 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter, that's awesome, but the Nets were 607 00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 1: already down by twenty, so you gotta have a serious 608 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 1: effort if you want to win games, even against the 609 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 1: team that's really struggling like the Suns, and the Nets 610 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 1: have not been able to do that since Kevin Durant 611 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 1: went out of the lineup. It was gonna be a 612 00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 1: question mark how they would respond to Kyrie being their 613 00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 1: leader during this time, and so far off to a 614 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 1: poor start oh and four. Not a lot of fight 615 00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:56,800 Speaker 1: in this one, except for Ben Simmons getting injected happily. 616 00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 2: I'm sure. 617 00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, Cam Johnson coming back, it felt like a breath 618 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:03,360 Speaker 3: of fresh air for the Suns there a little bit. 619 00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 3: I had no idea he was coming back for nearly 620 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:08,800 Speaker 3: three months. But I guess if you were watching his 621 00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 3: press conference pre game, I guess was earlier in the 622 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 3: game at shoot or earlier in the day at shoot around, 623 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 3: he was basically saying, you know, we'll be back, We'll 624 00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 3: be back. This is this is just this is just 625 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 3: a storm that we got to deal with and we'll 626 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 3: be back. And yeah that the crowd felt like it 627 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 3: was entirely different. Prospective owner Matt Ishbia sitting courtside for 628 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,640 Speaker 3: the first time since it was announced that he's going 629 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 3: to take the team from Robert Sarver. Eventually that will happen, 630 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:39,880 Speaker 3: and so they they felt good out there. They still 631 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 3: don't have a lot of their players. They're basically their 632 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 3: four man guard rotation is out in booker Chris Paul 633 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:50,160 Speaker 3: Shammitt and campaign. But next six to seven at home 634 00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 3: for the Suns, I think that breath of fresh air 635 00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:55,960 Speaker 3: will continue a little bit here. I don't think it's done. 636 00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:57,960 Speaker 3: They beat the snot out of the nets, really, I 637 00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,040 Speaker 3: mean it was a fake comeback at the end. So 638 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:03,959 Speaker 3: they gotta feel decent. They gotta feel as well as 639 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 3: they have for the first time in a couple months. Really, 640 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:09,160 Speaker 3: I mean they've been playing pretty poorly, but this gotta 641 00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 3: feel all right. 642 00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 2: All right, let's get to the ballot box here. Giannis 643 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 2: has overtaken Kevin Durant in the third and final fan 644 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 2: voting returns for the twenty three NBA All Star Game 645 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 2: in Salt Lake City. Katie who is out right now 646 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,960 Speaker 2: with the sprained mcl he trails by what about one 647 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:26,440 Speaker 2: hundred and thirty two thousand according to the updated release 648 00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:29,800 Speaker 2: there on Thursday. If the Greek Freak finishes with the 649 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:32,520 Speaker 2: most votes in the East and Lebron holds onto a 650 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:34,840 Speaker 2: very comfortable lead in the West, then the All Star 651 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:37,959 Speaker 2: Game will feature Team Lebron versus Team Jannis for the 652 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:41,240 Speaker 2: third time in history. Yes, those would be our captains. 653 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 2: Aside from that one leap frog there at the top. 654 00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 2: Not a lottable, not a lot excuse me, notable movement 655 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 2: with this new batch. Jason Tatum still holding on to 656 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 2: that third front court spot with Embiid not far behind 657 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 2: them but maybe running out of time. And then in 658 00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 2: the guards in the East, we had Kyrie and Donovan 659 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 2: Mitchell who are still one two there and have separated 660 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 2: themselves from the rest of the pack Jaylen Brown at 661 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 2: least over two million votes. Any takeaways from the East here. 662 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 1: I mean you hit on the big one. Yes, Passing 663 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 1: KD KD has been fun in the All Star drafts 664 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:25,160 Speaker 1: alongside Lebron Giannis was also fun alongside So I don't 665 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 1: really care between those two, They're both gonna put on 666 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 1: a good show. And I do think it's interesting that 667 00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 1: Donovan Mitchell is catching Kyrie, irving the gap between the 668 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 1: two after the first first returns four hundred thousand votes, 669 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:40,800 Speaker 1: second returns three hundred thousand votes, only one hundred and 670 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 1: seventeen thousand right now, so it's very close to the 671 00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 1: end of voting. But you know, he's got a chance, 672 00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 1: and I think Donovan Mitchell deserves to be the Eastern 673 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 1: Conference leading vote getter amongst the guards. He's been the 674 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 1: most exciting guard in the Eastern Conference and the Calves 675 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:56,440 Speaker 1: have been a pleasant surprise for sure. 676 00:31:57,120 --> 00:32:00,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think those couple notes there, Yannis over making Durant. 677 00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 3: I think they should choose the team together because Lebron smokes. Whoever, 678 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 3: the opposing captain is five, So you. 679 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 2: Think and Katy should be able to captain. 680 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:14,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, at least talk to each other. Yea, because GM 681 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 3: Lebron captain. Lebron kicks the other teams and he never 682 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:21,200 Speaker 3: lost five straight times under this new format. He's the king, 683 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:22,720 Speaker 3: he's five and oh so so. 684 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 2: We've only ever had four actual captains, right, Lebron every year? Yeah, 685 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:32,280 Speaker 2: Curry has when they were in opposite conferences, and then 686 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:33,160 Speaker 2: Joannis and Katie. 687 00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:39,200 Speaker 3: Okay, exactly, wow, exactly runs unbeaten. It's title. I don't 688 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 3: know if he's ever going to lose it. So the 689 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:42,520 Speaker 3: other the other thing, do. 690 00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:45,400 Speaker 2: You think that will push him back? Michael Jordan in 691 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 2: the Goat conversation, Yeah, for sure. He never lost an 692 00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 2: All Star as as captain. 693 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, did you do that? 694 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 1: Michael's captain All Star captain ever? 695 00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:58,120 Speaker 3: Well, the other thing you mentioned the guard rotation, Donovan 696 00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:01,960 Speaker 3: Mitchell trailing Kai Irving and then Jalen brown Is solidified 697 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 3: himself as number three there. Yep, I think Jalen Brown's 698 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 3: got a chance to start. 699 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 2: When you include the media and then the players. 700 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, because he's third, and even though that accounts for 701 00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 3: fifty percent of the equation, when you get to the 702 00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 3: players into the media, when they do their thing, which 703 00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 3: will be a couple weeks from now, and the Nets 704 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,960 Speaker 3: made drop down in the standings a little bit, it's 705 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 3: gonna be close. It's gonna be close for him to 706 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 3: start with Donovan Mitchell, who I think will start no 707 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 3: matter what, but I think he could he could surpassed 708 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:35,840 Speaker 3: Kyrie as a starter. Yeah, there's a chance. 709 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:38,880 Speaker 2: Two things sort of have to happen. One, the media 710 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 2: will have to put Kyrie fairly low in their rankings, 711 00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:45,600 Speaker 2: which they could, right. I mean, obviously Mitchell will be there, 712 00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:50,200 Speaker 2: Jalen Brown, you said Haliburton, maybe maybe Brunson. You know, 713 00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:52,200 Speaker 2: Kyrie is probably going to be somewhere between three and five, 714 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:57,600 Speaker 2: is my guessane with the media, but the players, they're 715 00:33:57,680 --> 00:33:58,720 Speaker 2: the real wild card here. 716 00:33:59,040 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 3: Yeah. 717 00:33:59,240 --> 00:33:59,960 Speaker 2: I love Kyrie Irving. 718 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:01,760 Speaker 3: He might be as low as number one amongst the 719 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 3: play that's possible. Yeah, it's an outside shot for Jaylen Brown. 720 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:08,400 Speaker 3: But the more the Celtics created gap at the. 721 00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:10,680 Speaker 1: Passing Harden gives him a chance for sure. 722 00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:14,360 Speaker 2: All right, let's go to the West Lebron Jokich, Anthony Davis. 723 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 2: They remain at the top of the list when it 724 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:20,200 Speaker 2: comes to the Western Conference front court players, Zion Williamson 725 00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 2: not far behind a d there wasn't played in a 726 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 2: while though, of course Zion's out too, He's within striking distance. Meanwhile, 727 00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:32,799 Speaker 2: in the back court Steph Curry and Lucay ahead of 728 00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 2: John John What John Moran Romance, Yeah, Jah Romance his nickname, 729 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:42,279 Speaker 2: and the rest of. 730 00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:45,359 Speaker 1: The back Valentine's Day card. Valentine's Day card. 731 00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:51,560 Speaker 2: So there you go. Any takeaways at all here from 732 00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:56,080 Speaker 2: the Western Conference third returns, Demonte Sabonis has entered the chat. Yeah, 733 00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:58,520 Speaker 2: I would say that's the coolest thing here. He is 734 00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:02,880 Speaker 2: now number ten and though in the front clock, Fox 735 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:04,520 Speaker 2: and Simonis are both tenth. 736 00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:07,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's gonna that's gonna hurt his chance of starting. 737 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 1: People have been talking him up as at least a starter, 738 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:13,319 Speaker 1: and you can tell he's getting more votes finally showing 739 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:15,600 Speaker 1: up in the returns. I think it's interesting that he 740 00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:19,200 Speaker 1: replaced Kawhi Leonard, who's actually been playing more than he 741 00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 1: has for the rest of the season. But uh, people 742 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:23,479 Speaker 1: are tired of those Clippers right now, and they're fired 743 00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:25,919 Speaker 1: up about the Kings, rightfully so. But I mean, coming 744 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:28,080 Speaker 1: in tenth in the fan vote means you're not gonna 745 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 1: somehow work your way into the top three after the 746 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:31,920 Speaker 1: media and the players. 747 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:34,279 Speaker 2: Even if they both, even if both of those put 748 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:36,560 Speaker 2: him in the in the starting I don't think the 749 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:39,000 Speaker 2: week we work, I. 750 00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:39,640 Speaker 1: Don't think. 751 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:44,240 Speaker 3: It's interesting yet. So bonus is there. Kawhi is off. 752 00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 3: People don't believe in the Clippers or aren't voting for 753 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:50,840 Speaker 3: the Clippers. Most people just why would you want. 754 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 2: Kawhi Leonard in the All Star Game? He's just gonna 755 00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:53,160 Speaker 2: take it off. 756 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:56,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, well that's that's a fair point. But I wonder 757 00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:59,880 Speaker 3: we all sit here and say, feeling like the Clippers 758 00:35:59,880 --> 00:36:02,520 Speaker 3: just don't have it this season. I wonder if that's 759 00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 3: happening in their locker room, it's got to be happening 760 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:07,840 Speaker 3: at some point. That's it just has to they start 761 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:11,799 Speaker 3: start thinking doubting what's going on in that locker room. 762 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:14,640 Speaker 3: So I wonder that after seeing Kawhi slip, Paul George 763 00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:20,680 Speaker 3: is still up there. But yeah, All Star voting closes tomorrow. 764 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,279 Speaker 3: We're talking here on Friday. It's a three for one day. 765 00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:25,160 Speaker 3: If you're into that kiny. 766 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:27,960 Speaker 2: For one day every fucking day. Why do they say this? 767 00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 3: That's not right? 768 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:31,400 Speaker 2: It is. It has been this last week. It's been 769 00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:33,960 Speaker 2: a three for one day every day almost. It's like 770 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:34,920 Speaker 2: driving me nuts. 771 00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 3: You're probably right, I have no idea. 772 00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:41,800 Speaker 1: It's always three for absolutely goose in the numbers. 773 00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:44,319 Speaker 2: They want to see five million, four million, three Like, 774 00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:47,279 Speaker 2: it's not really that, it's just this multiplying. It's so 775 00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:47,920 Speaker 2: weird to me. 776 00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:50,560 Speaker 1: Well, since today is the first three vote day we've 777 00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:54,200 Speaker 1: had so far, get your votes in, but none of 778 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:56,879 Speaker 1: the votes that you make today can be for somebody 779 00:36:56,920 --> 00:36:58,719 Speaker 1: who's in the top three in the front court or 780 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:00,480 Speaker 1: for the top two in the back court. Just show 781 00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 1: a little love. Yeah, we gotta at least try and 782 00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:06,160 Speaker 1: help four through ten here. This is our only shot. 783 00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:08,440 Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, Zion and beat it really is. 784 00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:10,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, focus on if you want. 785 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:13,200 Speaker 2: To get them in there. Yeah, Zion's fascinating. Like I 786 00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 2: could see I don't know about the players, but the 787 00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:18,760 Speaker 2: media I could see having Zion ahead of Anthony Davis. 788 00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:21,160 Speaker 2: I would think in a Western country. But then again, 789 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:22,520 Speaker 2: so bonus. A lot of them are gonna put the 790 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:24,640 Speaker 2: bonus in that mix, ye with Lebron and Yokich, so 791 00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:27,840 Speaker 2: maybe not. Those will probably be our starters. That's what 792 00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:30,279 Speaker 2: usually happens. That final return is like, oh, those are 793 00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 2: the guys. That's fine, We're gonna take our first break 794 00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:34,680 Speaker 2: when we come back. Worst of the Week nominees and 795 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:36,960 Speaker 2: the top Shot fifty. We had our first wave. Don't 796 00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:41,879 Speaker 2: go anywhere, hit the like button and subscribe. But let's 797 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:43,600 Speaker 2: get to Worst of the Week. 798 00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:49,719 Speaker 3: Ladies and gentlemen, the Worst of the Week. We got 799 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:52,640 Speaker 3: three nominees for you, guys. We shall debate which one 800 00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:55,680 Speaker 3: will take home the honor for Worst of the Week. 801 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:58,920 Speaker 3: This week, there was a mural on the side of 802 00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:02,799 Speaker 3: a bar in Dallas. It was a beautiful mural of 803 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:07,600 Speaker 3: Luka Doncic holding a sign which reads please send help, 804 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:13,120 Speaker 3: he doesn't need it. The funny thing is Mark Cuban, 805 00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 3: MAV's owner, send an email to the muralist, and that's 806 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:19,600 Speaker 3: why he is the nominee for Worse of the Week, 807 00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:23,040 Speaker 3: Not the muralist.

I believe it's like two hours long. 1000 00:48:27,560 --> 00:48:29,680 Speaker 2: So a whole bunch is talked about. But the one 1001 00:48:29,719 --> 00:48:32,400 Speaker 2: clip that everybody's pulled out and are going, WHOA was 1002 00:48:32,560 --> 00:48:37,360 Speaker 2: Johntay Murray sort of like criticizing how the Spurs handled 1003 00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:40,080 Speaker 2: him and the whole situation with Tony Parker, how he 1004 00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:42,960 Speaker 2: suddenly just left once de Jantay Murray took over the 1005 00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:45,239 Speaker 2: starting point guard spot and personally, I don't want to 1006 00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:47,560 Speaker 2: mentor you and he's gone. This is from Murray's side 1007 00:48:47,600 --> 00:48:50,200 Speaker 2: of things, obviously and his feelings on the matter, but 1008 00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:54,640 Speaker 2: I mean, he wasn't holding back on I thought him 1009 00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:57,640 Speaker 2: criticizing the Spurs organization a little bit, or at least 1010 00:48:57,640 --> 00:49:00,640 Speaker 2: again how they treated him as a look and coming 1011 00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:04,880 Speaker 2: up and I think he's I think he went a 1012 00:49:04,880 --> 00:49:07,239 Speaker 2: little overboard. But again it's just a clip pulled from it. 1013 00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:09,760 Speaker 2: I get all that. But they made him a starter 1014 00:49:10,440 --> 00:49:13,600 Speaker 2: in what year two year two? He got injured and 1015 00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:16,480 Speaker 2: he still got paid and uh, you know, he was 1016 00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:18,880 Speaker 2: an all star and like given an opportunity. It was 1017 00:49:18,880 --> 00:49:19,439 Speaker 2: a little weird. 1018 00:49:19,560 --> 00:49:21,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, so I don't know who to give Worst of 1019 00:49:21,560 --> 00:49:23,759 Speaker 3: the Week nomination two in that in that regard to 1020 00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:27,279 Speaker 3: John ta Murray, because he's just he was vocal about it, 1021 00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:30,439 Speaker 3: but he's allowed to say his piece. He seems seemingly, yeah, 1022 00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:32,359 Speaker 3: went a little overboard. I mean he kind of sent 1023 00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:36,520 Speaker 3: two things. He said. They brought Tony Parker and myself 1024 00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:39,080 Speaker 3: into the room. Pop said, you know what, we're gonna 1025 00:49:39,160 --> 00:49:41,880 Speaker 3: give the job to John Stay Murray park and he 1026 00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:44,319 Speaker 3: didn't like it. That's according to John tay Murray. He 1027 00:49:44,360 --> 00:49:47,080 Speaker 3: didn't like it and he didn't stick around to really 1028 00:49:47,160 --> 00:49:51,360 Speaker 3: mentor me. Okay, so maybe it's Tony Parker wor'st the 1029 00:49:51,400 --> 00:49:54,799 Speaker 3: Week Tony Parker for not well. He basically said, the 1030 00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:59,560 Speaker 3: Spurs just yeah, they didn't they just didn't really love 1031 00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:01,719 Speaker 3: me all the that much. I basically is what he 1032 00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:05,480 Speaker 3: was saying. He kind of said, for my background from 1033 00:50:05,480 --> 00:50:09,680 Speaker 3: the hood, precipitated that they just didn't love me all 1034 00:50:09,680 --> 00:50:12,840 Speaker 3: that much. And he kind of likened himself to Stephen Jackson. 1035 00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:14,880 Speaker 3: He said, I heard your name jack back when you 1036 00:50:14,920 --> 00:50:17,680 Speaker 3: were with the Spurs and you left. That's basically all 1037 00:50:17,680 --> 00:50:20,200 Speaker 3: he said. So I don't know, it's kind of hard 1038 00:50:20,239 --> 00:50:21,279 Speaker 3: to give it to the Spurs as well. 1039 00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:24,200 Speaker 2: He did show love to the Spurs organization within this 1040 00:50:24,360 --> 00:50:26,600 Speaker 2: entire podcast too. I mean, you don't you don't get that, 1041 00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:29,080 Speaker 2: no clip for that, you get that just this clip. 1042 00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:31,680 Speaker 3: But okay, yeah, well, I mean we covered it. I 1043 00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:36,840 Speaker 3: don't know where you pull him in. Pull him in. 1044 00:50:37,480 --> 00:50:40,759 Speaker 3: I think de Jontay Murray's name is going to get 1045 00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:44,920 Speaker 3: a few more clicks than budenholes we get add it though. 1046 00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:48,680 Speaker 1: I'll change the funal to the staff twenty thirteen to 1047 00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:50,879 Speaker 1: fourteen dogs. Yeah, a picture of the coaching st. 1048 00:50:50,920 --> 00:50:53,160 Speaker 2: Do you have any thoughts takes on this to Johantay 1049 00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:54,279 Speaker 2: Murray clip going around here? 1050 00:50:54,320 --> 00:50:56,719 Speaker 1: From all this, monk Uh, it was surprising to me 1051 00:50:56,760 --> 00:50:58,680 Speaker 1: when I went and looked at his basketball reference page 1052 00:50:58,719 --> 00:51:00,840 Speaker 1: that he was a starter second year and he's like, 1053 00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:01,920 Speaker 1: they didn't let me play. 1054 00:51:02,840 --> 00:51:04,799 Speaker 2: Kie in the playoffs, which he does say too. 1055 00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:07,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely right. I think he has I mean, a 1056 00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:10,880 Speaker 1: fair criticism I would say of Tony Parker, but also 1057 00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:13,520 Speaker 1: like that's Tony Parker's prerogative to be like, I'm a 1058 00:51:13,520 --> 00:51:15,160 Speaker 1: Hall of Famer, I want to keep playing. 1059 00:51:15,200 --> 00:51:15,399 Speaker 3: Yah. 1060 00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:18,480 Speaker 1: It's kind of weird this career ended in Charlotte just 1061 00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:19,960 Speaker 1: because they want to turn the keys over to de 1062 00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:23,960 Speaker 1: Jonte Murray. But I do think speaking to Steven Jackson 1063 00:51:24,040 --> 00:51:26,600 Speaker 1: probably influences a lot of these takes here because there 1064 00:51:26,640 --> 00:51:28,799 Speaker 1: aren't a lot of guys who have bad things to 1065 00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:31,480 Speaker 1: say about the Spurs. It's kind of been Kawhi, Stephen Jackson, 1066 00:51:31,640 --> 00:51:33,759 Speaker 1: and now de Jontay Murray. So maybe they're piling up 1067 00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:36,799 Speaker 1: a little bit. But it's just strange to hear from 1068 00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:39,879 Speaker 1: the Spurs, especially since it felt like they did give 1069 00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:42,720 Speaker 1: Murray an opportunity and built him up to All Star status. 1070 00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:50,880 Speaker 2: Can I give one more nominee these thumbs thumbs Worst 1071 00:51:50,880 --> 00:51:53,799 Speaker 2: of the week to thumbs, This is not a shot 1072 00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:58,320 Speaker 2: at lelis Okay Maverick's Christian Wood to miss multiple games 1073 00:51:58,520 --> 00:52:01,720 Speaker 2: with a broken thumb.

It's pretty cool. 1191 00:57:28,960 --> 00:57:32,680 Speaker 2: So the NBA Players Association Executive Committee, along with each 1192 00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:36,680 Speaker 2: team's player reps, were given the opportunity to vote on 1193 00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:40,520 Speaker 2: who has stood out amongst their peers and again define 1194 00:57:40,560 --> 00:57:43,120 Speaker 2: the season so far and as we go along. So 1195 00:57:43,160 --> 00:57:47,000 Speaker 2: we have the first wave of ten players that were 1196 00:57:47,040 --> 00:57:49,960 Speaker 2: selected based on their performance from tip off through the 1197 00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:52,640 Speaker 2: end of November. So here are the ten selections so far. 1198 00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:55,080 Speaker 2: And I just want to stress these are not the 1199 00:57:55,120 --> 00:57:58,360 Speaker 2: top ten. This is just the first wave of ten 1200 00:57:58,400 --> 00:58:01,640 Speaker 2: players out of fifty's. It's not a ranking system. They'll 1201 00:58:01,680 --> 00:58:03,680 Speaker 2: just be fifty in total and they'll come out in 1202 00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:05,800 Speaker 2: waves as the season goes on. So it's the first 1203 00:58:05,800 --> 00:58:10,080 Speaker 2: group of ten players voted on again by the NBA 1204 00:58:10,160 --> 00:58:15,080 Speaker 2: Players Association.

So I 1212 00:58:36,240 --> 00:58:38,680 Speaker 2: guess it's a little weird that like where's Giannis? 1213 00:58:38,840 --> 00:58:39,080 Speaker 3: Right? 1214 00:58:39,160 --> 00:58:45,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, where's Yeah, They're coming is the point. But that's 1215 00:58:45,040 --> 00:58:49,040 Speaker 2: the first first game votes. It's from the players, yes, themselves. 1216 00:58:49,120 --> 00:58:51,360 Speaker 2: But here's the cool part of this. Six of those 1217 00:58:51,440 --> 00:58:54,840 Speaker 2: names of the ten right now up on Top Shot. 1218 00:58:55,240 --> 00:58:57,800 Speaker 2: We get to pick, like as the fans like, what 1219 00:58:57,920 --> 00:59:01,800 Speaker 2: will be the most iconic moment like from their season 1220 00:59:02,280 --> 00:59:04,280 Speaker 2: to then turn into a top Shot moment. So I 1221 00:59:04,280 --> 00:59:06,640 Speaker 2: thought we could go through the ones that are open 1222 00:59:06,720 --> 00:59:09,560 Speaker 2: to vote on. We'll see two moments of each player 1223 00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:12,160 Speaker 2: right now, and then we could like we can just 1224 00:59:12,200 --> 00:59:15,080 Speaker 2: basically place our votes. Oh maybe Trey Hardy did actually. 1225 00:59:14,880 --> 00:59:17,400 Speaker 1: But heys told me, hey, man, don't vote in this. 1226 00:59:17,440 --> 00:59:18,080 Speaker 1: I said too late. 1227 00:59:18,240 --> 00:59:19,920 Speaker 3: I couldn't believe in What's. 1228 00:59:22,040 --> 00:59:24,560 Speaker 2: It's cool?

It does, but according to articles, it's 1497 01:11:56,400 --> 01:11:59,479 Speaker 3: only fifty five percent good. It's forty five percent bad 1498 01:11:59,479 --> 01:12:01,680 Speaker 3: because that can also be sort of fool themselves a 1499 01:12:01,680 --> 01:12:04,840 Speaker 3: little too much narcissistic or whatever. I don't want my 1500 01:12:05,000 --> 01:12:08,600 Speaker 3: slang to be nuanced. Get out of here.

And this week we celebrated this seventeenth anniversary 1651 01:19:58,600 --> 01:20:02,720 Speaker 5: of this very show set seventeen years kind of amazing, 1652 01:20:03,200 --> 01:20:07,080 Speaker 5: and yet we barely acknowledged it. In fact, Skeets forgot 1653 01:20:07,120 --> 01:20:13,799 Speaker 5: all about it. To be fair seventeens kind of meh somehow, right, Yeah, 1654 01:20:13,840 --> 01:20:16,080 Speaker 5: when you've been in the game this long, maybe you 1655 01:20:16,080 --> 01:20:18,240 Speaker 5: should just acknowledge it every five years. 1656 01:20:18,320 --> 01:20:18,880 Speaker 3: I don't know. 1657 01:20:19,439 --> 01:20:23,519 Speaker 5: Anyway, The question is, what's something else that should only 1658 01:20:23,560 --> 01:20:25,960 Speaker 5: be celebrated every five years, skeets. 1659 01:20:26,360 --> 01:20:30,120 Speaker 2: I believe I've said this before, but uh, birthdays once 1660 01:20:30,160 --> 01:20:34,280 Speaker 2: you've reached the age of twenty five. After twenty five, 1661 01:20:34,680 --> 01:20:38,160 Speaker 2: we celebrated every five years. Yeah, we're not doing you're 1662 01:20:38,160 --> 01:20:39,920 Speaker 2: getting two old at that point. We're not We're not 1663 01:20:39,960 --> 01:20:43,719 Speaker 2: doing twenty six. We'll wait until thirty. Then we celebrate, 1664 01:20:43,760 --> 01:20:46,080 Speaker 2: and we do thirty five, do forty, you know, but 1665 01:20:46,120 --> 01:20:48,240 Speaker 2: we go up to twenty five because I was gonna 1666 01:20:48,240 --> 01:20:51,000 Speaker 2: say twenty but here in the States, twenty one legal 1667 01:20:51,080 --> 01:20:53,320 Speaker 2: drinking age. That makes sense. That's fine, you're still young, 1668 01:20:53,479 --> 01:20:54,679 Speaker 2: you still got all the tergey. 1669 01:20:54,439 --> 01:20:56,200 Speaker 3: You're missing out on twenty six, twenty seven to twenty eight, 1670 01:20:56,200 --> 01:21:00,360 Speaker 3: twenty nine. Why well, I was extremely immature in my 1671 01:21:00,479 --> 01:21:03,679 Speaker 3: early twenties and then still immature my late twenties. Still 1672 01:21:03,680 --> 01:21:04,320 Speaker 3: want to have some fun. 1673 01:21:04,360 --> 01:21:07,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, because you argue like they were probably fine birthdays. 1674 01:21:07,920 --> 01:21:09,920 Speaker 2: I yeah, I knew you. I don't remember them. 1675 01:21:09,960 --> 01:21:12,439 Speaker 7: But anyway, but you could argue you because I didn't 1676 01:21:12,479 --> 01:21:13,040 Speaker 7: celebrate them. 1677 01:21:13,120 --> 01:21:16,479 Speaker 2: You could argue not having celebrated the twenty six through 1678 01:21:16,479 --> 01:21:18,040 Speaker 2: twenty nine, man, we would have had a banger at 1679 01:21:18,080 --> 01:21:24,120 Speaker 2: thirty all that built up birthday celebration character energy. Yeah, birthdays, 1680 01:21:24,200 --> 01:21:25,840 Speaker 2: especially when you get that old, you don't need them 1681 01:21:25,840 --> 01:21:26,240 Speaker 2: every year. 1682 01:21:26,640 --> 01:21:28,240 Speaker 3: It's a good one. I couldn't agree more. 1683 01:21:28,400 --> 01:21:30,519 Speaker 2: Okay, test I. 1684 01:21:30,520 --> 01:21:32,840 Speaker 3: Think you'll agree with this one too, JD. Because you 1685 01:21:32,880 --> 01:21:36,240 Speaker 3: don't celebrate your marriage now, but every five years I 1686 01:21:36,280 --> 01:21:39,559 Speaker 3: think would be reasonable. Then you'd actually celebrate. I think 1687 01:21:39,640 --> 01:21:43,640 Speaker 3: after you can celebrate every year until you get to ten. Yeah, 1688 01:21:43,640 --> 01:21:46,960 Speaker 3: but then after that, no need every five and then 1689 01:21:47,000 --> 01:21:49,160 Speaker 3: you'll actually do it. Because where were you at, JD? 1690 01:21:49,280 --> 01:21:51,880 Speaker 3: That you didn't celebrate or wasn't it a milestone just 1691 01:21:51,960 --> 01:21:55,160 Speaker 3: now twenty years and you didn't well? 1692 01:21:55,200 --> 01:21:57,360 Speaker 5: I mean I it could be argued that our trip 1693 01:21:57,400 --> 01:22:00,240 Speaker 5: to Europe was part of it was part of the 1694 01:22:00,680 --> 01:22:05,719 Speaker 5: justification of it, but you know whatever, we had some champagne, 1695 01:22:05,720 --> 01:22:09,240 Speaker 5: but that was it, you know, yeah whatever, You know 1696 01:22:09,320 --> 01:22:11,479 Speaker 5: that celebrate every goddamn day around here. 1697 01:22:11,520 --> 01:22:15,439 Speaker 2: Our seventeenth anniversary for the show. Do you know what 1698 01:22:15,479 --> 01:22:18,120 Speaker 2: the wedding anniversary gift is? 1699 01:22:18,520 --> 01:22:18,600 Speaker 1: No? 1700 01:22:18,920 --> 01:22:25,040 Speaker 2: Did anybody have an idea?

Look back? 1709 01:22:52,880 --> 01:22:55,240 Speaker 1: What did people actually watch for the past five years? 1710 01:22:55,320 --> 01:22:57,400 Speaker 1: But you can't name up single best picture in the 1711 01:22:57,439 --> 01:22:58,360 Speaker 1: last five years. 1712 01:22:58,760 --> 01:23:01,439 Speaker 2: Uh No, the one where the fish had sex with 1713 01:23:01,479 --> 01:23:02,200 Speaker 2: the woman. 1714 01:23:02,280 --> 01:23:05,840 Speaker 3: You can't name it that, the love and Water love 1715 01:23:05,880 --> 01:23:10,800 Speaker 3: and what now sex? Fish? What is it called? 1716 01:23:11,960 --> 01:23:15,720 Speaker 1: What I'm saying, I know movies come out, people talk 1717 01:23:15,800 --> 01:23:19,639 Speaker 1: about them, then they forget about them completely. Same with music, 1718 01:23:19,720 --> 01:23:22,840 Speaker 1: same with literally everything. So if you do it for 1719 01:23:22,880 --> 01:23:25,719 Speaker 1: five years, you'll like, actually get ten movies that people 1720 01:23:25,800 --> 01:23:30,160 Speaker 1: care about, rather than throwing Sound of Metal in the 1721 01:23:30,160 --> 01:23:31,160 Speaker 1: Best Picture nominees. 1722 01:23:31,479 --> 01:23:34,360 Speaker 2: Shape of Water, Shape of Water, Yes, which probably won 1723 01:23:34,439 --> 01:23:35,240 Speaker 2: about five years ago. 1724 01:23:35,240 --> 01:23:39,519 Speaker 5: At this point, I like this idea. So so you're saying, 1725 01:23:39,720 --> 01:23:45,400 Speaker 5: every five years, there's nominations for five pick five best picture. 1726 01:23:45,439 --> 01:23:50,360 Speaker 5: There's only five nominees out of the fire one a year. 1727 01:23:50,439 --> 01:23:55,240 Speaker 3: Basically, Wow, that'd be hard. I like that a lot. 1728 01:23:55,600 --> 01:24:00,240 Speaker 5: Because then you have the the perspective, right, yeah, we 1729 01:24:00,360 --> 01:24:03,040 Speaker 5: did this. Are we still talking about this five years later, 1730 01:24:03,080 --> 01:24:03,680 Speaker 5: three years later? 1731 01:24:03,800 --> 01:24:07,759 Speaker 3: Whatever?
