1
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,959
Speaker 1: Ah yeah, stepping on the beach, the only place to

Speaker 1: read your emails and tweets. It's Wednesday, January Thirteenthum Jay

Speaker 2: Hey guys, great to be on the big show again.

6
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 1: Hey Tasty, we got the bass Master ripping them lips.

Speaker 1: Trey Kirby. Heyo, Hey, we got the International made a

8
00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 1: mystery taking it to the Max le Ellis friend, last,

9
00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:51,839
Speaker 1: but not least, making the magic happens.

10
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 3: JD.

11
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 1: Hello there he is here. We are. Shout out to

12
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 1: the stream team, joining us live right now on YouTube.

13
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,560
Speaker 1: Keep doing your thing. We're less than I'll one hundred

14
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 1: subs away from twenty five thousand K, twenty five thousand K,

15
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 1: twenty five thousand on YouTube. So let's just strike that

16
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 1: from the checklist today. If you haven't subscribed, please do

17
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 1: share it with a friend. Let's get there.

18
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:19,399
Speaker 2: Well, that's gonna happen first, we're sub one hundred subs

19
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 2: twenty five k or James Harden traded first.

20
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:26,479
Speaker 1: It's gonna be close. It's gonna be close. Yeah, before

21
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 1: we get to the questions, here an exciting afternoon on

22
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 1: NBA Twitter. It feels like we're mere hours, maybe minutes

23
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 1: away from James Harden actually being traded. Murphy's Slash No

24
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 1: Dunk's Law says he'll be traded as soon as we

25
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:43,319
Speaker 1: stop recording this beach step in podcast. I mean, you

26
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: could almost take that to the bank. We got Sham's,

27
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 1: we got woes, we got Mark Stein saying this is

28
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 1: basically going down. When you know what, you got all

29
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 1: three of those guys tweeting about it, you know something

30
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 1: is happening. Harden's been held out of practice. The Rockets

31
00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 1: are planning to keep them away from the team until

32
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 1: the trade is done. That's something we talked about on

33
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 1: today's No Dunk's Daily podcast, and it just sounds tasks

34
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 1: like we're waiting on the Rockets front office to weigh

35
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 1: the best final offers from what we think is the

36
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,880
Speaker 1: Brooklyn Nets or the Philadelphia seventy six ers, who can

37
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 1: sweeten that pot just a little bit more for the

38
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: Rockets to finally trade James Harden. Do you think this

39
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 1: happens here during this show?

40
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:25,079
Speaker 2: Sure, it's got to happen soon. It's like a movie

41
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,360
Speaker 2: right the way he was at that press conference yesterday,

42
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 2: cut it short, walked off and never to be seen

43
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:35,360
Speaker 2: again in a Houston Rockets arena, atmosphere, anywhere. This is it.

44
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 2: It's done. He's never going to be a Houston Rocketgain.

45
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 2: It's gott to happen right now, it has to. It

46
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 2: feels a little too dirty and with what Anthony Davis

47
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:46,239
Speaker 2: put the Pelicans franchise and fans through two years ago,

48
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 2: to me, it's very very similar in the way that

49
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 2: Anthony Davis kind of stopped playing and the last five

50
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 2: games James Harden hasn't been anything like himself out there.

51
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,079
Speaker 1: What do you think, Trey, is this happening before we're

52
00:02:58,120 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 1: done beach? Step in here?

53
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, confident. I think we're gonna stretch this nice

54
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,079
Speaker 4: and long on the beach so we actually get to

55
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 4: react live to a trade. I think Serge Ibaka was

56
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 4: the last time, right maybe in Abaka trade from the

57
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:10,920
Speaker 4: Magic to the Raptors that we got to react to.

58
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 3: That was a while ago.

59
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,800
Speaker 4: But it definitely feels like the last time we're gonna

60
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 4: see James Harden in a Rockets uniform was wearing the

61
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 4: Baby Blues, Oh classic Rockets uniforms. But it feels like

62
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 4: it's just a matter of time. Now kind of seems

63
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 4: like they're haggling over which support players, which role players

64
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,520
Speaker 4: to throw into this trade, perhaps with the Sixers.

65
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:32,240
Speaker 2: I don't know.

66
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 4: All of the Rockets, who are going to continue to

67
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 4: be Houston Rockets after the next couple of days are

68
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 4: basically just trashing James Harden in their press conferences right now,

69
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 4: so they're ready for him to be gone. Clearly, the

70
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 4: Rockets are ready for him to be gone. It's just

71
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 4: a matter of can they do it in the next

72
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 4: hour and a half. Let's see.

73
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, Leo, I asked you this morning, you think Harda

74
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 1: will be traded by the weekend? I'll just change that now.

75
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 1: Do you think hard will be traded by.

76
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 3: The end of the day, Yes, I do. Now, definitely

77
00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 3: things have moved in that direction pretty strongly. The biggest

78
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 3: domenioears to have fallen in the fact that the Sixers

79
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 3: are going to move Ben Simmons in return. So now,

80
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 3: as Trey's saying there, it's more those periphery pieces which

81
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 3: can maybe get the contracts to line up, and then

82
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 3: a few little pieces here and there just to sweeten

83
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 3: the deal. But I wonder if it will be a

84
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 3: three team deal. Because mark Stein appears to be alluding

85
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:18,840
Speaker 3: to the fact that there could be some other ones involved.

86
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 3: Now I will say, I just wonder though with this

87
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 3: whole you know, Kyrie Irving situation in Brooklyn has any

88
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,479
Speaker 3: impact as well, because the Nets apparently were prepared to

89
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,840
Speaker 3: go pretty heavy to Houston to get something as well,

90
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:32,920
Speaker 3: according to I think it was Shams who was saying

91
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 3: that out there. So yeah, it's definitely happening. It's definitely

92
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,360
Speaker 3: going down, and you know, Darryl Moury is reunited there

93
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,599
Speaker 3: with James Harden in Philadelphia. That's just going to be

94
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 3: a hilarious sort of storyline to really, because we you know,

95
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:47,119
Speaker 3: we sort of thought it was possible. Then it seemed

96
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 3: like it was unlikely because the Sixers got off to

97
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,839
Speaker 3: a good start and now we've sort of seen the

98
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:54,599
Speaker 3: Sixers you slow down a little bit, and Ben Simmons

99
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 3: clearly his mind was elsewhere last night, So this appears

100
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 3: to have been in the works of the last couple

101
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,200
Speaker 3: of daysos so, and with James Hodden's performance last night,

102
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 3: I guess the Rockets have decided no point now in

103
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:09,719
Speaker 3: trying to repair that relationship. That's done, so move on

104
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 3: from him. And see what you can get in return.

105
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, obviously keep our eye on the Twitter machines

106
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 1: here on the heavy hitters. We got notifications on and

107
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 1: all that. So yeah, maybe we'll be reacting to a

108
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 1: trade right now when we know it is official. I

109
00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 1: guess if I'm a betting man, I'll go with the Sixers.

110
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 1: I'll go with it. Sounds like Tucker is a part

111
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,479
Speaker 1: of this, Like he's going to be packaged there with Harden.

112
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 1: So if those two guys were going to Philly, well

113
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:36,039
Speaker 1: it's Ben Simmons, maybe Mike Scott make the dollars work,

114
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 1: and then it could be mattist Steibel and a Tyrese MAXI.

115
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 1: Maybe it's just one of those two guys. And then

116
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 1: it comes down to how many picks or any picks,

117
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 1: what's in there and do they have to trade to

118
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,239
Speaker 1: get more picks to make this happen. That's my guess

119
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:48,720
Speaker 1: right now.

120
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 2: The interesting part is from that Sixer side, if he

121
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:54,159
Speaker 2: goes to Philly, that they start seven and one. Everything

122
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 2: looks perfect in Philadelphia. You'd figure that they try a

123
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,839
Speaker 2: couple months with these two young stars half Star half

124
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,479
Speaker 2: Superstar and Joel and being Ben Simmons but they just

125
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,240
Speaker 2: pull the plug on it. Now. I'd assume that Ben

126
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 2: Simmons isn't extremely happy with this role, being off the

127
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,239
Speaker 2: ball more and not handling it, being a point guard

128
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,720
Speaker 2: his whole life touching that thing and now, you know,

129
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,040
Speaker 2: not doing as much with it. I assume that's a

130
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 2: part of it, but that really hasn't come out. I

131
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 2: think Ben Simmons has played the good man there. He's

132
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,880
Speaker 2: done his job. So that's to me, that's the real

133
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 2: interesting start we knew before the season. No matter if

134
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 2: Harden's not playing or whatever he was done in Houston,

135
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 2: it's that Philly side that's very intriguing to me.

136
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of people don't think that if this

137
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,159
Speaker 1: does happen between the Sixers and Rockets, then it's a

138
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,160
Speaker 1: smart trade for Philly. I saw Mike Prada saying, no,

139
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 1: don't do hard and if you can do bal, do bal,

140
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 1: and he made an interesting point. I'm not sure I

141
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:49,479
Speaker 1: agree with it, but Tray, let's get your take. Mike

142
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:53,039
Speaker 1: Prada said that this is a bad year for a

143
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,719
Speaker 1: team like the Sixers to take an extreme like win

144
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 1: now posture. Because again this was Mike Prada, who knows

145
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 1: if first off, we even finished the season. Given COVID uncertainty, Okay,

146
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 1: who really knows how COVID will affect the usual rhythm

147
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,480
Speaker 1: of the playoffs fair and how many of the usual

148
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 1: norms of a title contender or title contention will even

149
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 1: apply in this year. I mean, I think it's fascinating

150
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 1: look at it. I hadn't really thought about that. What's

151
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 1: your action.

152
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 4: Depth is definitely going to be important this season, as

153
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 4: we're seeing with teams that are having to run eight

154
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 4: players out from the end of their bench and put

155
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 4: on a show, which is exactly what the Sixers did

156
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 4: last night, right, So yeah, I can see that argument.

157
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 4: But there's another depth argument to be made as well.

158
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 4: You have more depth if you have Joel Embiid and

159
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 4: James Harden. If Joel Embiid goes out for the playoffs,

160
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 4: you still have James Harden. I don't necessarily know if

161
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:41,920
Speaker 4: Ben Simmons keeps you as a title contender if he's

162
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 4: playing by his loansome. On the flip side, if James

163
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 4: Harden somehow is out for the playoffs, you still have

164
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 4: Joel Embiid. You can ride him as an MVP candidate.

165
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:53,679
Speaker 4: So there's depth there, And then there is a superstar depth.

166
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 4: You know, I'm always going for the superstar depth. But

167
00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:59,280
Speaker 4: man if Harden and embiid end up on the same team.

168
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 4: You hated the Rockets shooting free throws, Wait until you

169
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 4: see these guys shooting free throws. They go to the

170
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 4: line all the time. This is gonna be I mean,

171
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 4: if Harden's on the Sixers, they could easily be the

172
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 4: most hated team in the league, taking the mantle from

173
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 4: I suppose the Rockets and James Harden previously. I don't know,

174
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 4: it could be a team that people really really like

175
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 4: to root against.

176
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 1: Okay, well, well wait, let's just wait and we'll see

177
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 1: what happens. Is hard to going to Philly? Is he

178
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 1: going to Brooklyn? Is there a third team involved? Like

179
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 1: you said Ley, Is he just going come somewhere else

180
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 1: completely out of left field. We'll just find out, hopefully

181
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 1: in the next hour. So let's get to the question Stuss.

182
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:37,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, you guys have sent in some great ones here,

183
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:39,959
Speaker 2: and we start with a banger. Hey, no, Dinky Dins.

184
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 2: Is Trey Young the new Kevin Love starting last season?

185
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 2: I feel like the way we've been talking about Tree

186
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:49,680
Speaker 2: Young is reminiscent of Kevin Love's last two to three

187
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,200
Speaker 2: seasons in Minnesota, where he was putting up huge numbers,

188
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 2: but for a variety of reasons, they didn't exactly lead

189
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 2: to team success. At the time, it led me to

190
00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:00,320
Speaker 2: believe that he could never be the number one option

191
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 2: on a championship level team. He never struck me as

192
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 2: a leader, but more as an all star slash fringe

193
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:08,079
Speaker 2: all star that any championship team would love to have

194
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 2: as a second or third option, which he ultimately was

195
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:13,320
Speaker 2: with the Cavs. Now, don't get me wrong, Trey Young

196
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 2: is still no pun intended, very young. He might prove

197
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 2: me wrong in the end, and I hope he does.

198
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,680
Speaker 2: For Hawks fans, thank you for your thoughts on the matter.

199
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:23,360
Speaker 2: Have a great day, stay safe, keep up the great work.

200
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 2: That's from Nicholas being Quebec City, Canada. Skeats. What do

201
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 2: you think is Trey Young the new Kevin Love?

202
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:32,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's interesting. I actually compared Kevin Love's first six

203
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 1: seasons in Minnesota with Trey Young's first two and change.

204
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 1: Here obviously into his third year, the numbers are sort of,

205
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 1: you know, for guys that play different positions, and obviously,

206
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 1: you know, fill up the box score in different ways.

207
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:49,959
Speaker 1: There's some comparisons in terms of scoring the ball, one

208
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 1: being obviously an elite rebound and the other being pretty

209
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 1: elite playmaker for being a young point guard. And they

210
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 1: just didn't win a lot of games. So I guess

211
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 1: that checks out right, And that's what Nicholas here is saying.

212
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 1: The Wolves won with Kevin Love in the mix twenty four, fifteen, seventeen,

213
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:07,080
Speaker 1: twenty six, thirty one and then forty in his final

214
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 1: year in Minnesota. That's twenty five and a half wins

215
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 1: per season. He was an All Star, he made All

216
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 1: NBA actually twice. The Hawks, well, he have won twenty

217
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 1: nine and twenty so twenty four and a half wins

218
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 1: per season. And again Trey Young in his third year.

219
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 1: But I think the more apt comparison is either to

220
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 1: Chris Bosch and his first seven seasons in Toronto. I'm

221
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,800
Speaker 1: talking about Kevin Love here, or this one will probably

222
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,959
Speaker 1: hurt the most for Wolves fans. What about Karl Anthony Towns?

223
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:36,920
Speaker 1: What about his six years to Kevin Love's first six

224
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:39,640
Speaker 1: years in Minnesota? There with not a lot of team success,

225
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 1: you know, individual accolades. Kat had a two time All

226
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 1: Star won All NBA selection, but not winning a ton

227
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,840
Speaker 1: of games, incredibly winning more games than Kevin Love even did.

228
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 1: But I think it's that So I hear where Nicholas

229
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 1: is going with this big numbers on a crappy team.

230
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,320
Speaker 1: Can he ever be the lead guy? I guess I

231
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 1: still have a little more faith in Trey to be

232
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,960
Speaker 1: Steph Curry late type player moving forward in this league.

233
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:08,200
Speaker 1: But I hear you, with those huge numbers on a

234
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 1: team that can barely win thirty games, what do you

235
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 1: think lately?

236
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's just a little early for the

237
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 3: Trey Young comparison there to Kevin Love. He plays a

238
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:18,160
Speaker 3: different game as well, you know, like Kevin Love obviously

239
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 3: shot threes for a big guy, but Trey Young just

240
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 3: plays in a different way. So I think this season

241
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 3: was going to be a key season, and it started

242
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,160
Speaker 3: off well here for the Hawks, but it has sort

243
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,440
Speaker 3: of hit a bit of a road bump along the way,

244
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:31,200
Speaker 3: and it's going to be interesting to see how Trey

245
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 3: Young responds to this, because I think the Atlanta Hawks

246
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,520
Speaker 3: backed up their words in the last season and into

247
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 3: the offseason by getting some good supporting players around him.

248
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,000
Speaker 3: I think there is some talent and some depth there.

249
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 3: Still trying to figure it all out. But now I

250
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:48,200
Speaker 3: want to see Trey Young become better than he has

251
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 3: been in these last couple of seasons. And again he

252
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 3: started off the season well, but he seems to have

253
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,360
Speaker 3: been pouting a little bit in these last few games

254
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,200
Speaker 3: here when since the report that John Collins basically called

255
00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 3: him out during a team meeting. So we'll see how

256
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 3: it plays out there. But Kevin Love, yeah, I mean

257
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 3: those seasons in Minnesota, he seemed to be a dominant player,

258
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 3: putting up twenties and ten's in his sleep, but we

259
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,000
Speaker 3: really didn't know if they were empty stats or if

260
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:11,520
Speaker 3: he was going to be a star player. It wasn't

261
00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:13,680
Speaker 3: until he got to Cleveland, where you know, his numbers

262
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:17,720
Speaker 3: were similar, but he was just surrounded by better talent

263
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 3: and he became a better player and better And that's

264
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,160
Speaker 3: no surprise there any time. It's like Kemba Walker going

265
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 3: to Boston. I think, you know Kemba Walker. We saw

266
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 3: him in Charlotte for all those years putting up these numbers,

267
00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 3: but was like, is he good or is he just

268
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 3: like the best player and a bad team. When you

269
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 3: see him in Boston, certainly in last season, I thought

270
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,200
Speaker 3: he was That was the best season of his career

271
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:37,320
Speaker 3: because he was playing with some talent and that showcased

272
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 3: his talents a little bit more so. I think that's

273
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 3: where Trey Young is right now. Again, he's only in

274
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 3: his third season. He's shown some talent, but like all players,

275
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:47,959
Speaker 3: he has to now take that step up to become

276
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,440
Speaker 3: a leader and he's struggling a little bit with it

277
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 3: right now. You know, he's struggling with it because there's

278
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:55,000
Speaker 3: a bit more expectations and some people, you know, his

279
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,840
Speaker 3: own teammates kind of called him out and he has

280
00:12:57,880 --> 00:12:59,680
Speaker 3: to respond. And if he is truly going to be

281
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,720
Speaker 3: a franchise altering star, then he has to respond better

282
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 3: than he has so far to the criticism.

283
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,680
Speaker 1: Hawks are five and five. I mean, yeah, but for

284
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,160
Speaker 1: the high note, I know we have high expectations. But

285
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 1: that's great for them.

286
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, but you know, when you break it down a

287
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:17,200
Speaker 3: little bit more, you know, these they were five and

288
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 3: one and they've lost four in a row, and those

289
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 3: four losses have been bad losses, like, yeah, not competitive.

290
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:26,520
Speaker 2: You know there are four in one. Weren't they once

291
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 2: fine as time?

292
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,280
Speaker 3: Were they four and one? Okay, well everyone's five and

293
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 3: four or four or something like that. But that's what

294
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 3: I mean. Like, when things were going great, it was like, Wow,

295
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,200
Speaker 3: he is this guy, Trey Young. He's you know, throwing

296
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 3: his name in the MVP conversation. But then he kind

297
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 3: of like sulked a little bit. I think anyway, from

298
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:44,880
Speaker 3: what I've seen their last few games, he's kind of like, oh, well,

299
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:46,600
Speaker 3: if it's not my team, then I'm not playing at all,

300
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,000
Speaker 3: you know, and that in your third season, the James

301
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:50,840
Speaker 3: Harden situation is a little bit different, but in your

302
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:52,959
Speaker 3: third season you've got to be a little bit more

303
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 3: resilient than that. I think.

304
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,120
Speaker 2: I think Nicholas just isn't a Tree Young fan. He

305
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,600
Speaker 2: doesn't really believe in Tree Young. That's what it comes

306
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:04,320
Speaker 2: down to. Here is Trey Young's chance to lead a

307
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:06,400
Speaker 2: team into the playoffs because he's got a bunch of

308
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 2: vets around him. But those vets haven't been able to

309
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 2: play a role because they're all injured. They've been injured

310
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:14,040
Speaker 2: basically the entire season, from Danilo Gallinari to bog down

311
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:16,760
Speaker 2: by Danovich to Region Rondo, who's supposed to be his

312
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 2: little mentor just to be around at the very least,

313
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:23,400
Speaker 2: So I bought into the you know, maybe it's because

314
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 2: they were four and one, but seeing that start, Trey

315
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 2: Young getting guys involved, not taking every single shot, and

316
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 2: John Collins, you know, voiced his displeasure, and that hurt

317
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 2: Trey Young's game. Trey Young was not himself, he was

318
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 2: not right on the court, and he didn't react well.

319
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 2: But you know, they bounce back for one game. Anyway,

320
00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 2: they're five and five, and it's a learning it's it's

321
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,880
Speaker 2: it's just a larning lesson for him, and that's it.

322
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:51,080
Speaker 2: I think it's a Obviously it's too early to judge,

323
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 2: but he is a different player than Kevin Love that

324
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:56,120
Speaker 2: he can score from anywhere, he doesn't need anyone to

325
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 2: set him up. And you know, Nicholas just doesn't believe

326
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:01,200
Speaker 2: he's in his potent as a leader. What it comes

327
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 2: down to. But I I'm buying it. It's early in

328
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,600
Speaker 2: season three. He finally has a decent player or two

329
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 2: or three or four around him. You know, I guess

330
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:12,800
Speaker 2: you can compare it to Kevin Love, them trying to

331
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 2: put you know, Pekovich around him and a bunch of

332
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 2: guys that didn't work out. So maybe maybe these teams

333
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:23,240
Speaker 2: are comparable, but I'm buying I'm buying Trey Young as

334
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:24,880
Speaker 2: a leader. That's so That's what it comes down to

335
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 2: for me. I think this is this is finally his time,

336
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 2: and he's going to show that he's good enough.

337
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 1: Just do what Kevin Love and Chris Bosh did. Just

338
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 1: team up with Lebron James and then the second best

339
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 1: player on the team, and you win a championship, right right,

340
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 1: It totally works.

341
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:38,000
Speaker 4: Maybe we'll see him at as a Laker or someday,

342
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:42,400
Speaker 4: but I'm with y'all, hump the brakes. It's season three

343
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 4: for Trey Young. We're talking six seasons with Kevin Love.

344
00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 4: If it gets to the point where Trey Young is

345
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 4: going for thirty and fifteen every night and the Hawks

346
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,400
Speaker 4: are still winning twenty five games, then it will be

347
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 4: a problem. The basketball has come easy, leadership is a

348
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:56,040
Speaker 4: little bit tougher. There's some great tidbits from Chris Kershner

349
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 4: at The Athletic you can subscribe at Theathletic dot com

350
00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 4: slash no dunks about the way the pressure is kind

351
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,080
Speaker 4: of building on the Hawks. Lloyd Pierce came out and

352
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 4: said we're a playoff team despite not consulting with management

353
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 4: about that. That puts a bigger spotlight on your team

354
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:13,200
Speaker 4: right there. John Collins calls out Trey Young in a

355
00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:16,120
Speaker 4: film session and rather than hashing it out there, Trey

356
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 4: Young goes and talks to Lloyd Pierce in a sidebar.

357
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 4: That's not necessarily the greatest leadership. You can see why

358
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 4: people are going to be poking holes at a team

359
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 4: that is expecting to be good. But this is the

360
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 4: first time Trey Young has really had a squad around him.

361
00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:28,680
Speaker 4: Let's give him more than half of a month to

362
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:30,680
Speaker 4: actually figure out how to get some wins here in

363
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 4: the NBA. And speaking about Kevin Love, when you go

364
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 4: back and look at those teams terrible teams, Oh yeah, Like,

365
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:39,520
Speaker 4: are we supposed to expect Hory Brewer and Kevin Martin

366
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:42,040
Speaker 4: and Nikola Pekovich to be leading these teams in the playoffs?

367
00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 4: There's a reason that Kevin Love was having to score

368
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 4: a whole bunch of points and not having a lot

369
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:46,920
Speaker 4: of team success there.

370
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 1: You got to have a team around you. Trey Young

371
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 1: has it.

372
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 4: We were all very excited about the things the Hawks did.

373
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,640
Speaker 4: Like Task mentioned almost every acquisition the Hawks have made

374
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 4: in the Summer is not playing right now. Salomon Hill's

375
00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,000
Speaker 4: about the only guy even their draft picks, even their

376
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 4: reserves and done out. We're rolling with the same team.

377
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,760
Speaker 4: We saw what the Hawks last year with the heightened expectations,

378
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 4: so just chill a little bit.

379
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,359
Speaker 2: One of the guys they signed, bog Dan Bogdanovic for

380
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:13,520
Speaker 2: all our YouTube stream teambers kind of looks like that

381
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:16,000
Speaker 2: big head behind you Tray in your younger days, you

382
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,440
Speaker 2: kind of look like bog Dan bug Danajevich. That big

383
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 2: face there, I think, oh it's a pillow.

384
00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:24,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, this is called the freaky daddy head around here.

385
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:31,080
Speaker 1: Yeah I can see why. Yeah, that's weird, very creepy.

386
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:33,640
Speaker 2: We'll put that on social media to freak you out.

387
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 1: Next question here, Hey, no Dum's crew. I was listening

388
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 1: to you all talk about Kawhi holding two water bottles

389
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,160
Speaker 1: in one hand, and it got me thinking about how,

390
00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 1: back when he was with the Raptors, Roots Canadian company

391
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 1: made him custom sized gloves after you said there were

392
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 1: no cold weather gloves which fit them because of his

393
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 1: freaky long digits there. So this leads me to my question,

394
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:58,520
Speaker 1: what custom piece of clothing do you think needs to

395
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 1: be designed? For a specific player. Thanks for the great podcast.

396
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:05,800
Speaker 1: That's from Carter over in England. What do you got, Trey?

397
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:09,600
Speaker 4: This is a general suggestion. I think that they should

398
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 4: make long sleeve T shirt jerseys, or at least allow

399
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 4: players to wear long sleeve T shirts under their jerseys.

400
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 4: You see it all the time in practice, and personally

401
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:19,480
Speaker 4: I think a long sleeves with shorts is just a

402
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,800
Speaker 4: choice look. But for a specific article of clothing, I

403
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:27,160
Speaker 4: would like to see a Lakers' uniform that's a full

404
00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 4: Lebron James uniform, but it's also like tear away pants

405
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,120
Speaker 4: and a shirt, so Lebron can just wear this during

406
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:35,280
Speaker 4: the game. It looks like he's still in uniform. We

407
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:37,479
Speaker 4: all know he's chilling right now. He's not giving it

408
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:40,199
Speaker 4: the full effort. So through the first three quarters of

409
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,920
Speaker 4: the game, he's wearing his warm up Lakers uniform. It

410
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:44,920
Speaker 4: still looks the same, twenty three on the front, twenty

411
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:47,719
Speaker 4: three on the back, Lakers James, all that kind of stuff.

412
00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:50,240
Speaker 4: But come the fourth quarter, he tears off the pants,

413
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 4: he rips off the jacket, and now it's time to

414
00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,320
Speaker 4: actually play basketball. You had a chance to win the

415
00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:56,400
Speaker 4: first three quarters, but now Lebron is here.

416
00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:00,679
Speaker 1: It's like Brent Barry in a dunk huntest exactly, you

417
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 1: guys n answerly.

418
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,879
Speaker 3: Well, I would like to see the Australian players in

419
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,560
Speaker 3: the NBA wearing a uniform that's a little bit more

420
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 3: like an Australian rules football jersey and shorts you know,

421
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 3: you know the one skeetze When we go and watch

422
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 3: the Grand Final there usually like they're sort of similar

423
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:18,399
Speaker 3: to the basketball uniform, so it wouldn't be a huge change,

424
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:20,040
Speaker 3: but I would just like to see them out there

425
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:21,720
Speaker 3: and there assie rules gear. I think it'd be a

426
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,639
Speaker 3: way of symbolizing yep, that guy's from Australia. We know that,

427
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 3: and he's paying respect to where he grew up because

428
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 3: all these guys would have played Australian rules football when

429
00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:31,160
Speaker 3: they're kids. I mean, Ben Simmons talk about him a lot.

430
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:33,400
Speaker 3: He was a great Australian rules football player, so it'd

431
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:34,960
Speaker 3: be great to see him out there on the court

432
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:38,160
Speaker 3: in his Australian football uniform without the boots. Of course,

433
00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 3: he wouldn't be able to wear those ones out there.

434
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:43,480
Speaker 1: But they're basically saying make the basketball uniforms tighter, are

435
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:46,440
Speaker 1: you not because those guys are some tight, tight uniforms

436
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:48,439
Speaker 1: or jerseys or kits or whateveryone I call them.

437
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:51,200
Speaker 3: Exactly and it shows off their you know, their definition

438
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,160
Speaker 3: and their biceps a little bit more so I think

439
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:54,760
Speaker 3: I think they'd love it. I think the players would

440
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 3: love it. But also those uniforms are very like like

441
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:00,639
Speaker 3: you're not going to get stuck to each other or

442
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:04,040
Speaker 3: anything like that. They're very svelt and well designed, so

443
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:05,920
Speaker 3: you know, you can slip around picks quite easily. I

444
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 3: think it'd be a good improvement to the game as well.

445
00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:11,680
Speaker 1: Is there like a reason why they are so tight? Well,

446
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 1: they used it of showing off those quads.

447
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 3: You know, the shorts used to be even tighter. Like

448
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:19,000
Speaker 3: you go back and look at the sort of la

449
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 3: in the nineties. It wasn't until sort of a guest

450
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 3: towards the sort of mid to late nineties where they

451
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:26,760
Speaker 3: started making the shorts a little bit looser. But we

452
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 3: used to play basketball too in footy shorts. And yeah,

453
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:33,160
Speaker 3: like I mean, when you're a kid, you don't really care,

454
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 3: but yeah, when you when you look at some of

455
00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:36,760
Speaker 3: the players, look up Warick Kapper, he used to wear

456
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:42,119
Speaker 3: the tightest shortest shorts that is buttock. His lower buttock

457
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:45,200
Speaker 3: was often hanging out of but Warick. Warick was quite

458
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,640
Speaker 3: an entertainer, so he did that on purpose. But yeah, yeah,

459
00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:52,360
Speaker 3: they've moved on. They have modernized their uniform somewhat nowadays,

460
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,200
Speaker 3: so they're not quite as a slinky as they used

461
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:55,399
Speaker 3: to be.

462
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 1: Wasn't there a UFC fighter that wore like a G

463
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:01,000
Speaker 1: string to aftergone fighting, fell out and in a way

464
00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 1: got all upset. That's not a thing that happened. I'm

465
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,119
Speaker 1: pretty sure your head, but I think.

466
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 2: That's I don't remember.

467
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, he like wore like the smallest like clothing you

468
00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,320
Speaker 1: could imagine for for a fight, and I think his

469
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 1: nut popped out on live TV. Was not happy. It

470
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:19,720
Speaker 1: was a little tidbits. Some fact checked me on that.

471
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:23,560
Speaker 1: I don't know if I dreamt uh, do you have

472
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:25,600
Speaker 1: a piece of a custom clothing you want to see

473
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:26,720
Speaker 1: their NBA in the NBA.

474
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 2: Test, Well, I mean this is more of a product,

475
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 2: I guess. But Lamello mall a Lamillo, mall Lamello Ball

476
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,679
Speaker 2: loves pointing at his head. As we've seen, it's kind

477
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 2: of a three in the head. It's kind of like

478
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:41,520
Speaker 2: what LaMelo or Lamello Carmelo Anthony does. Uh So, I

479
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 2: mean my product is it's kind of been done, but

480
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:47,920
Speaker 2: I want it to be called the mellow Heads. It's

481
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,520
Speaker 2: a hat with a foam hand attached to it, but

482
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:52,960
Speaker 2: it's a fingers just pointing at his head, and I

483
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:56,680
Speaker 2: could see entire arenas, you know, when we get fans

484
00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:59,160
Speaker 2: back in the arenas wearing them. You can be attached

485
00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:01,119
Speaker 2: to a hat, it can be a attached to a headband.

486
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:04,440
Speaker 2: So you have eighteen thousand mellow heads in the arena.

487
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:07,040
Speaker 2: Oh man, that's a product.

488
00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:09,439
Speaker 1: That's actually a good product because like you could see it,

489
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:11,119
Speaker 1: like if you shook your head a little bit, like

490
00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:13,240
Speaker 1: the fingers would like pop into your head.

491
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:13,800
Speaker 3: Yeah.

492
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's a good design. Yeah, you're gonna need

493
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:18,880
Speaker 2: some good designers on that. And yeah, we talked about

494
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:23,639
Speaker 2: last week whether Mellow can steal the name of Carmelo Anthony,

495
00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 2: whether we can start just referring to him as Mellot,

496
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,320
Speaker 2: whether he's going to take that name. So as a business,

497
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,680
Speaker 2: you're gonna get some nice SEO traction off of Carmelo

498
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,840
Speaker 2: Anthony there. So, Hey, there's lots of good angles here.

499
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 5: Yeah.

500
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:37,960
Speaker 2: The mellow heads. They're out there. They're out there somewhere,

501
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 2: and it's different though, you know, he points to his

502
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 2: head like with a full hand. It's not a three

503
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,119
Speaker 2: to the head. It's just like, hey, I don't know,

504
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:48,000
Speaker 2: my head's in the game or something, or my head's good.

505
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:51,480
Speaker 2: I'm not sure what he's saying exactly, but it's it's

506
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:53,200
Speaker 2: a dick ding. Once you start pointing to your head,

507
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:54,119
Speaker 2: you just can't stop.

508
00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,359
Speaker 1: Oh, I find the Carmeloch like three to the dome,

509
00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 1: like I've done that in pick up basketball. I don't

510
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 1: even think I took the shot. I think I'm doing

511
00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 1: it because it's so funny. Let's you start doing it,

512
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 1: you can't stop, all right, that's a great question.

513
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:08,439
Speaker 4: Before we move on, a couple of hard and traded

514
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,560
Speaker 4: fact checkers, a couple of fact checkers on the stream team,

515
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:15,040
Speaker 4: Michael Walsh says, I just check Google, and I must

516
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:19,640
Speaker 4: say war Happer's than was indeed thing back in the day, okay,

517
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:23,159
Speaker 4: and Runaway Universe says that fighter was Dennis Hollman, by

518
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:24,920
Speaker 4: the way, and his nuts did pop out.

519
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:26,160
Speaker 1: Thank you.

520
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 3: You were right.

521
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:33,159
Speaker 1: You were right about nuts. Multiple Yeah, maybe he just

522
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 1: maybe it was a complete exposure in that I don't

523
00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:39,680
Speaker 1: know how did Ariel Helwania scorecard that one? I'd love

524
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:41,399
Speaker 1: to know. All right, what's our next one?

525
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 2: Friends? I'm a mass fan and watching the win against Denver,

526
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:49,639
Speaker 2: I just jumped on my seat when Dorian Finney Smith

527
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,480
Speaker 2: did a gorgeous put back dunk, which he often does.

528
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,040
Speaker 2: My question is who is on your all NBA put

529
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:58,160
Speaker 2: back dunk team this season? I stopped listening to other

530
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 2: NBA podcasts because every day it's only a classic time

531
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:05,440
Speaker 2: with my boys. But hey, it's never too much content

532
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:08,959
Speaker 2: for me. Thanks. That's from Davide in Italy, wants to

533
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:13,440
Speaker 2: know all NBA putback squad was on your team?

534
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:17,879
Speaker 3: Lee oh Child? David. Yeah, So this was a great question.

535
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:19,959
Speaker 3: It was allocated to me and I was like, awesome.

536
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 3: I love doing this stuff because you can get right

537
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:25,120
Speaker 3: into those rabbit holes on YouTube and go deep into

538
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,640
Speaker 3: the NBA archives and find the best put back dunkers.

539
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:30,600
Speaker 3: But I was somewhat disappointed, to be honest with the results,

540
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:34,359
Speaker 3: because ultimately it's really just guys who are awesome dunkers

541
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:36,560
Speaker 3: are actually the best at the putback dunkers as well.

542
00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:39,840
Speaker 3: I didn't really find that one guy that I was like,

543
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,679
Speaker 3: oh awesome, Yeah, I forgot about him. Like, so, I

544
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 3: have compiled a list here of guys, and you guys

545
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:47,160
Speaker 3: might remember most of these guys. I'm sure you will,

546
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 3: but I've put them together. So I'm going to start

547
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:53,399
Speaker 3: with the old school guy, Dominique Wilkins. He had a

548
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:55,520
Speaker 3: couple of huge ones, but again he was a I

549
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:57,440
Speaker 3: think a three time dunk champ or two time dunk

550
00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:02,960
Speaker 3: champ in a lot, fantastic dunker, super athletic. Jason Richardson.

551
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 3: He actually he also wanted to slam dunk contest. Fantastic

552
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:10,119
Speaker 3: liipa great athlete. He had some really really good putbacks

553
00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 3: in his dime. Vince Yeah, I mean, you know, I'm

554
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:16,159
Speaker 3: not telling you anything. You don't know you, Vince. Awesome dunker,

555
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:21,480
Speaker 3: great dunker. Lebron James. Now, now, Lebron is not only

556
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,040
Speaker 3: a great put back dunker, he's a great put back

557
00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:26,800
Speaker 3: dunker after the whistle as well, and just a dunker

558
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 3: after the whistle. A lot of his dunks, like it

559
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:30,400
Speaker 3: goes up there, he grabs it with his left hand

560
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:32,600
Speaker 3: and sort of windmills it after the whistle, so that

561
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 3: doesn't even count. But the Ultimately I found the most

562
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:41,000
Speaker 3: consistent best put back dunker of all time is young

563
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:44,600
Speaker 3: Blake Griffin. He had some monster ones, power gasol. He

564
00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:47,479
Speaker 3: got ridden a few times there by Blake sometimes not

565
00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:50,720
Speaker 3: just put bank sometimes and just regulation dunks during the game,

566
00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:54,200
Speaker 3: but Blake, yeah, he just he erupted it. And I think

567
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 3: now it feels like it's been so long since we've

568
00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:59,200
Speaker 3: seen that Blake Griffin, you know, like he's still he's

569
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 3: playing okay there for the Pistons, but those days are

570
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,960
Speaker 3: well and truly beyond him, unfortunately. And you know, but yeah,

571
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 3: I remember those you know, two or three seasons there.

572
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,240
Speaker 3: It was like every night it felt like there was

573
00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:13,720
Speaker 3: some sort of crazy Blake dunk, whether it was in traffic,

574
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 3: whether it was a putback, or when he just exploded

575
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,240
Speaker 3: over Kendrick. Was it Kendrick Perkins or Sergea Bucker. I

576
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 3: can't remember which one it was there, but Hendrick there

577
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:26,880
Speaker 3: was Kendrick. Yeah, so yeah, so I will say probably

578
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,679
Speaker 3: Nate Robinson was the best small man put back dunker.

579
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:34,639
Speaker 3: He had quite a few. But Alan Iverson also in

580
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,239
Speaker 3: his sort of first two seasons he had he had

581
00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 3: a couple out one against the raptors. I'm sure you

582
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 3: guys remember where he was riding on the back of

583
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:45,040
Speaker 3: someone there. So but yeah, unfortunately I didn't really I

584
00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:47,600
Speaker 3: was hoping to compose those questions.

585
00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:48,840
Speaker 1: It doesn't suck.

586
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:50,960
Speaker 3: It doesn't suck. I mean, put back dunks are awesome,

587
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 3: but you know, sort of like Taj Gibson had one

588
00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:55,359
Speaker 3: nice one, but I couldn't really make a strike o.

589
00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 3: You know, I was like, I was like, there's got

590
00:26:58,359 --> 00:26:58,880
Speaker 3: to be more out.

591
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,159
Speaker 2: What about Kelly Uber. He's been doing it like a

592
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:05,800
Speaker 2: madman this season. He's not a huge dunker.

593
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:07,960
Speaker 3: But nah, yeah, yeah, hold.

594
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,800
Speaker 1: On, I got a question. What's the Bron's biggest putback dunk?

595
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:12,400
Speaker 1: What's his biggest put back dock?

596
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 3: His biggest put back done?

597
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:16,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm drawing a blank. I'll be that lefty windmill

598
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:19,119
Speaker 4: after the whistle. It is after the whistle. Yeah, it's

599
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:20,960
Speaker 4: a foul on the on the shot attempts. But oh

600
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,160
Speaker 4: my goodness, it's maybe the best dunk of his career.

601
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:25,919
Speaker 1: That's true. But that one didn't count. So is there

602
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:27,240
Speaker 1: another one?

603
00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:32,360
Speaker 3: Yeah? I know, yeah, he I can't really remember which

604
00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:34,040
Speaker 3: one sort of stood out because you know, like you're

605
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:36,920
Speaker 3: watching and you're just like yeah, yeah, saying it, saying

606
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:40,880
Speaker 3: it okay, but it's like, uh, Unfortunately, I haven't really

607
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:42,400
Speaker 3: got the juice for this one that I was hoping

608
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:45,359
Speaker 3: to have that guy. I know it's hoping. I was

609
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:47,199
Speaker 3: hoping to have two or three guys like now remember

610
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:50,359
Speaker 3: this guy and you guys like, oh yeah, but not

611
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,800
Speaker 3: that J Smith. J Smith had some good ones as well,

612
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:54,040
Speaker 3: But you.

613
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,560
Speaker 4: Know you missed Kenyon Martin.

614
00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:57,680
Speaker 1: Mate, that's the big one to me.

615
00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 4: Kenyon Martin a dominant put back dunker, hanging on the rim,

616
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:02,440
Speaker 4: tearing it off, slapping the backboard.

617
00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:02,760
Speaker 1: Love that.

618
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:05,240
Speaker 4: I'd also say a lot of Kevin Garnett's best dunks

619
00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:07,760
Speaker 4: of his career are off put backs. He's got one,

620
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:09,760
Speaker 4: re catches it. I forget he's planning. He grabs the ball,

621
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:11,359
Speaker 4: brings it all the way down to his waist, and

622
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 4: then back up with two hands. Incredible stuff and a

623
00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:20,320
Speaker 4: special a special realm of tip dunks does not exist anymore. Unfortunately,

624
00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 4: the Michael Jordan free throw tip dunk where everybody's just

625
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:24,920
Speaker 4: standing there and he flies in for the dunk. They've

626
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:27,040
Speaker 4: changed the rules on that so that doesn't happen anymore,

627
00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:29,720
Speaker 4: which is too bad. Because that's just since that has

628
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,800
Speaker 4: now been outlawed. That was an awesome That was an awesome.

629
00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:33,080
Speaker 1: Kind of dunk.

630
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:35,919
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, you guys heard of Michael Jordan also a

631
00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:37,400
Speaker 4: pretty good un He's pretty god dunker.

632
00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:39,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, it turns out if you're a good dunker, you're

633
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:41,480
Speaker 1: pretty good at the put back dunks. That's what we

634
00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 1: learned in that last ten minutes there next one. Hey, guys, Okay,

635
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 1: so we're over people making fun of the Warriors. But

636
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,360
Speaker 1: how good can this team be? Wiggins actually looks good.

637
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 1: Oubra can't be this awful all year long? Are they

638
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 1: for real? Can their holes be filled by Steph's great?

639
00:28:59,840 --> 00:28:59,959
Speaker 3: Now?

640
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:02,120
Speaker 1: Just curious where people stand on this team. That's from

641
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 1: Jesshua Kid says, ps, thanks for the laughs. You're always

642
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:08,280
Speaker 1: keeping me in good spirits. I was literally watching your

643
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:11,640
Speaker 1: show Friday morning, right as my wife was about to

644
00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 1: give birth. Wow. Yeah, one sec, honey, Lee's talking about

645
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 1: these great dunkers. I've yeah, I hold it, just hold

646
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:22,600
Speaker 1: it for a second. He's forgot about Vince Carter. I

647
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:26,959
Speaker 1: think he's gonna say him. But congratulations to you, Jessha

648
00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 1: Jessua Kid and your and your beautiful wife on the

649
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:31,240
Speaker 1: on the new baby. I assume. I don't know I

650
00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:33,120
Speaker 1: was there an update on the email test. I'm not sure,

651
00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:35,720
Speaker 1: but I'm going to assume everybody's happy and safe and

652
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 1: he's in good spirits because he listened to the podcast

653
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:40,840
Speaker 1: and he just had a kid. So are you high

654
00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:42,960
Speaker 1: on the Warriors? Like, where do you fall on this team?

655
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:49,040
Speaker 2: Yeah? Congrats ASH contender. Well what are we talking about?

656
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:52,200
Speaker 2: Playoffs contender? Yeah? I think I think that's even a

657
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:54,840
Speaker 2: step up after what we saw the first couple of games.

658
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:57,320
Speaker 2: No one thought they were gonna be in the postseason,

659
00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:00,680
Speaker 2: but they are a huge contender for the playoffs championship contender. No,

660
00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:03,640
Speaker 2: I think it's pretty evident watching them they don't have

661
00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,600
Speaker 2: a second score that they can rely on. Those guys

662
00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:14,640
Speaker 2: that s just mentioned in Andrew Wiggins, Kelly Ubray, Raymond Green, Wiseman,

663
00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 2: you just you can't rely on them. And I think

664
00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:19,600
Speaker 2: maybe if you know, you take that sort of the

665
00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:21,800
Speaker 2: optimistic Warrior's point of view, you say, you know what,

666
00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:25,280
Speaker 2: we got beat in twenty nineteen in the finals by

667
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 2: a Raptors team that didn't have necessarily a second score

668
00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:31,120
Speaker 2: that you could rely on. They got it from everywhere.

669
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:36,160
Speaker 2: But they were better. You know, besides, Kawhi Leonard had

670
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 2: to he had to drag them through two rounds where

671
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:40,080
Speaker 2: they weren't producing, and then all of a sudden it

672
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 2: was an avalanche. Fred Van Vliet and Kyle Lowry and

673
00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:45,360
Speaker 2: Pascal Siakam. Pascal helped out in the first couple of rounds,

674
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,320
Speaker 2: and those guys are just far more reliable. You just

675
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:51,800
Speaker 2: see coaches, coach after coach after coach after coach when

676
00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 2: they're playing the Warriors, they just take out Steph That's

677
00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,920
Speaker 2: their job and that's all they do. They just say, hey,

678
00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:01,840
Speaker 2: let the other guys beat us. And it's working. You know,

679
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:04,320
Speaker 2: steph Is has slowed down these last couple of games,

680
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 2: and maybe the Warriors will bounce out of it. But

681
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:09,480
Speaker 2: I just don't buy them offensively enough to be able

682
00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:12,760
Speaker 2: to hang. A good addition to their team would be

683
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:15,640
Speaker 2: Klay Thompson right now. They they need another guy who

684
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:18,600
Speaker 2: can score. You can't rely on those guys, even though

685
00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:21,320
Speaker 2: you know, I like Wiggins in his overpaid role of

686
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:23,600
Speaker 2: being like a three and D guy, or he's not

687
00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:24,920
Speaker 2: a three and D guy, but like, you know, a

688
00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 2: fifteen sixteen seventeen guy. He's playing well, maybe Uber plays better,

689
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:29,880
Speaker 2: but still not enough.

690
00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:33,320
Speaker 1: What do you think, Trey, Yeah, I'm with Tasks.

691
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:35,920
Speaker 4: They don't have the reliable depth, which means I mean,

692
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 4: I don't know if Kelly Ubray has a whole bunch

693
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,720
Speaker 4: of trade value. I don't know if there's two, like

694
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 4: eight million dollar players you could move him for that

695
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,080
Speaker 4: could just show up on your team. But you even

696
00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:45,880
Speaker 4: see it in the game last night when they're playing

697
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,400
Speaker 4: the Pacers, Kelly Ubray had a great half. People were

698
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:51,120
Speaker 4: buying land on Ubree Oasis fifteen points, but then the

699
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,480
Speaker 4: second half he put up two. And that's kind of

700
00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 4: what it's like. You never know what you're going to get,

701
00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:57,080
Speaker 4: necessarily from Ubra. You don't know what you're gonna get

702
00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,640
Speaker 4: from Wiggins, though he's looked all right this year. You know, people,

703
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:02,360
Speaker 4: the prices are going up for flights to Wiggans Island,

704
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:05,280
Speaker 4: there's no doubt about that. But even James Wiseman last

705
00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:07,280
Speaker 4: night against the Pacers, he was making an impact, but

706
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:09,400
Speaker 4: he couldn't stand the floor with foul trouble. He goes out,

707
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:12,280
Speaker 4: so Bonus runs wild inside. They just have to play

708
00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:15,120
Speaker 4: a perfect game and Steph has to be incandescent every night.

709
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:16,840
Speaker 1: He has the ability to do that.

710
00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:20,040
Speaker 4: The chemistry with Draymond Green is obviously not taking a

711
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:23,120
Speaker 4: step back with them missing a season playing away from

712
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:24,800
Speaker 4: each other. They're back on the court looking like a

713
00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:26,960
Speaker 4: classic one and two punch, but you're not getting the

714
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:29,600
Speaker 4: points necessarily from Draymond. He'll make the right decisions, he

715
00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 4: will set guys up, but you're not getting the scoring.

716
00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:34,560
Speaker 4: So it's gonna be tough for the Warriors. They definitely

717
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,520
Speaker 4: need another piece. Obviously they'll get Clay back next year,

718
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 4: but even on top of that, there's gonna need somebody

719
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:41,840
Speaker 4: else who can do something with the ball because stuff

720
00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:43,479
Speaker 4: can do a lot, but he can't do everything for

721
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:44,160
Speaker 4: forty eight minutes.

722
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:47,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I will say Damian Lee has something good. S

723
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:50,360
Speaker 1: attempted to give you a good impersonation of Klay Thompson

724
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 1: out there at times, But yeah, Clay is just you know,

725
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:55,680
Speaker 1: easily a twenty point per game score. And then oh yeah,

726
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:58,480
Speaker 1: he's taking the best you know, perimeter player on the

727
00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 1: other end, because he's a really good offensive player that

728
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,800
Speaker 1: it gets overshadowed a little bit because of Draymond, you know,

729
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,840
Speaker 1: directing traffic and being elite on that end of the floor.

730
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:08,800
Speaker 1: I'm sort of with what you guys are saying. Though

731
00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:11,280
Speaker 1: they're a playoff team, I think it's gonna be tough

732
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,680
Speaker 1: to win, you know, three or four series though, with

733
00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:16,840
Speaker 1: the makeup of their squad right now, you golesly.

734
00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:18,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, the only team they can't beat I don't think

735
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 3: in a seven game series is the Lakers. Right now.

736
00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:22,040
Speaker 3: I think the Lakers are too good. But if you

737
00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:24,000
Speaker 3: look at all those other teams, you know, like the Jazz,

738
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:26,600
Speaker 3: even the Clippers in there, they've all got that little

739
00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:29,160
Speaker 3: bit of a weakness that if things break right, I

740
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:31,720
Speaker 3: can see the Warriors upsetting any of those teams in

741
00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:33,640
Speaker 3: the first round. Throw the Nuggets in there as well,

742
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:36,120
Speaker 3: because we've seen that at their best, when you've got

743
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 3: Steph out there, Yeah, he is capable of just running

744
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:41,480
Speaker 3: through a team. So it's certainly possible. But I think

745
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:43,880
Speaker 3: at their worst as well, they do have a few

746
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,840
Speaker 3: holes that can't they can't compensate for right now. So

747
00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:49,560
Speaker 3: I just think mainly in the Western Conference, there's not

748
00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 3: a clear number two. To me. I think the Clippers

749
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:54,120
Speaker 3: should be that, but I don't think they've proven it yet.

750
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:55,960
Speaker 3: I think the Nuggets are one of those teams they've

751
00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:58,400
Speaker 3: gotten off to a slow start, and the Utah Jazz

752
00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:00,560
Speaker 3: we know that they're also a little bit un reliable.

753
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:03,880
Speaker 3: So I think the Warriors would not be afraid of

754
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:06,280
Speaker 3: any of those teams in the playoffs at any stage.

755
00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:09,080
Speaker 3: I just think there's only the one team right now

756
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:11,399
Speaker 3: that they wouldn't be able to beat under any circumstances,

757
00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:13,120
Speaker 3: and that's the Lakers, because I just think the Lakers

758
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:15,200
Speaker 3: have you know, they're the clear favorite to win the

759
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:17,719
Speaker 3: whole thing right now. So that's the only team that

760
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 3: I think is unquestionably better than the Warriors. Otherwise, I

761
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,600
Speaker 3: think the Warriors, you know, they'd go into a series,

762
00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:25,839
Speaker 3: especially with Steph and Draymond there, with the way they're

763
00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:28,319
Speaker 3: built right now, and thinking like we can take these guys.

764
00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:31,759
Speaker 3: You know, they haven't proven enough yet that we don't

765
00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:32,960
Speaker 3: think we could beat them.

766
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:36,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is a weird, weird year. You said, you know,

767
00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:38,799
Speaker 2: there's a it's clear that there's a number one seed

768
00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:41,400
Speaker 2: in the West, but it's not even clear in the

769
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:44,200
Speaker 2: Eastern Conference that there's one good team, one runaway team.

770
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 2: That's the start of this season is really really strange.

771
00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:49,719
Speaker 2: That's why I don't mind if the Sixers go for

772
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:51,279
Speaker 2: it if they're trading for James Harden. Do we have

773
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:52,319
Speaker 2: a James Harden trader or what?

774
00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:55,879
Speaker 4: Apparently now that Sixers are trying to get some other

775
00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:58,120
Speaker 4: assets to throw into the deal so they don't have

776
00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:00,759
Speaker 4: to part with Maxie, I want to keep MAXI.

777
00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:01,000
Speaker 3: And the do that?

778
00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:05,040
Speaker 1: Oh man, Yeah, I suggested Tyres Maxie being included in

779
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,719
Speaker 1: a hard and trade last night on Twitter, and Sixers

780
00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:10,560
Speaker 1: fans went nuts on me. They were nearly ran me

781
00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:11,040
Speaker 1: off Twitter.

782
00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:13,759
Speaker 4: Man, It's like this guy's had one thirty nine point game.

783
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:16,800
Speaker 1: We can't rate them. They are in love with Tyres Maxie.

784
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:19,560
Speaker 1: They do not want to part with him. Mattist Thibel. Sure,

785
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:21,839
Speaker 1: they're like fine, go nuts. Now, if you had done

786
00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:23,200
Speaker 1: this last year, I think it would have been a

787
00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:26,160
Speaker 1: different tune. But okay, so they're trying to find some

788
00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:29,640
Speaker 1: more pieces to make it happen. Oh baby, Jadie, what

789
00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:30,279
Speaker 1: do you got you guys?

790
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:33,200
Speaker 6: I just got a tweet of the day here from

791
00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:36,200
Speaker 6: our friends. I think you should league pass. And this

792
00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:39,920
Speaker 6: is this really sums up Twitter right now? D it

793
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:43,120
Speaker 6: for people that yeah, the historic and it's HiT's the

794
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 6: what sketches this called? This is the the country singers on,

795
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 6: I think you should leave. And the serious guy is

796
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:54,520
Speaker 6: the historic and necessary second impeachment of America's forty fifth president.

797
00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:58,680
Speaker 6: And then the other guy is the hardened trade. Yes,

798
00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:01,360
Speaker 6: it's perfect, It's exactly what is happening on my Twitter

799
00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 6: feed right now.

800
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:03,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, yep, you're not wrong.

801
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:07,120
Speaker 1: There's a lot going on right now. Okay, so no

802
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:09,560
Speaker 1: hard and trade as of yet. And I guess Trump

803
00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:12,120
Speaker 1: is still technically the president, Is that right, JD. That's

804
00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:13,239
Speaker 1: a last week check.

805
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:15,279
Speaker 6: As a last week check, Yes, he is still the

806
00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:17,120
Speaker 6: president and no trade.

807
00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:19,160
Speaker 1: Hopefully both of those things change by the end of

808
00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:19,680
Speaker 1: this podcast.

809
00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:20,440
Speaker 6: That'd be awesome.

810
00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:21,640
Speaker 1: That would be wild all right.

811
00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:25,840
Speaker 2: Next question, Hi nd inc five years viewers since the

812
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:29,040
Speaker 2: starter's days. Thanks for all the great content. I've got

813
00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:34,080
Speaker 2: some embarrassing thing to admit here, probably more embarrassing than

814
00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:38,160
Speaker 2: a reptile dysfunction. For the first three episodes, I heard

815
00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:41,640
Speaker 2: the romanad in your show, and I thought, what is

816
00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:47,000
Speaker 2: a reptile dysfunction? I seriously wondered what that meant, which

817
00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:50,040
Speaker 2: reptile suffers from a dysfunction to the extent that there's

818
00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:54,680
Speaker 2: something called a reptile dysfunction that's until JD mentioned the

819
00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:57,400
Speaker 2: short form ed in one of the podcasts and I

820
00:36:57,480 --> 00:37:02,520
Speaker 2: realized how wrong I was my question which NBA team

821
00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:08,680
Speaker 2: or player feels like a reptile dysfunction the most? For example, PJ.

822
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:10,840
Speaker 2: Tucker is a chameleon with the ability to change his

823
00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:13,160
Speaker 2: sneakers every game, and he plays for a dysfunctional team

824
00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:15,279
Speaker 2: in the Rockets. Thank you and keep up the great

825
00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:17,840
Speaker 2: work and stay healthy. As from Justin in Hong Kong.

826
00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:21,960
Speaker 1: This is, without a doubt, one of the strangest questions

827
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:24,759
Speaker 1: we've ever received. The question is which NBA t or

828
00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:27,080
Speaker 1: player feels like a reptile dysfunction?

829
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:31,080
Speaker 2: Yeah? Lost in translation, I think perhaps.

830
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:34,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe, And again this is strange, and we've had

831
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:37,000
Speaker 1: some strained questions, but I think this one takes the

832
00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:39,840
Speaker 1: cake there. Justin, I had no idea to ask how

833
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:42,200
Speaker 1: to answer this, I really did, so I asked my

834
00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:45,240
Speaker 1: Twitter followers. I said last night, like, this is the question.

835
00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:47,879
Speaker 1: This one's weird. What are your answers? Now? I knew

836
00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:50,960
Speaker 1: when I was asking it, we were basically firing up

837
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:53,560
Speaker 1: the pun gun, and that's what happened. They came through

838
00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:59,439
Speaker 1: in flying colors. Ross B said Snake Griffin. Jared Dryden said,

839
00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:04,400
Speaker 1: probably the Washington Lizards, good one. TJ said the Spurs

840
00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:09,680
Speaker 1: yakup turtle. Mark Weatherup Junior said, cobra Kawhi, Leonard, that's

841
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:17,000
Speaker 1: for you. Ley Valentino said his san white side up

842
00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:22,880
Speaker 1: dt genty, he said, Brian Scalabrini, and then Ali said,

843
00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:25,799
Speaker 1: and this was a low blow, Alley. The raptors are

844
00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:29,920
Speaker 1: definitely not fully functioning yet very dysfunctional. There. Yes, the

845
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:33,440
Speaker 1: raptors still raging. So there you go. I just decided

846
00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:36,080
Speaker 1: to fire the pun gun a reptile dysfunction. I mean,

847
00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:38,120
Speaker 1: do you have any better answers than any of those

848
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:38,800
Speaker 1: dumb ones?

849
00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:43,480
Speaker 2: Well, I mean you know that that last one got

850
00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:45,200
Speaker 2: to you there because it was a It was a

851
00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:49,400
Speaker 2: raptor hitter last year in the playoffs, brad Iguana Maker,

852
00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:56,000
Speaker 2: he was really killing the raptors and by association, Brooklyn's

853
00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:59,440
Speaker 2: easy money viper. Well, he's always involved in draper in

854
00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 2: drama because he's playing with Kyrie Irving. But yeah, that's

855
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:03,720
Speaker 2: all I got good.

856
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:07,880
Speaker 1: Anything else you guys want.

857
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:07,600
Speaker 3: To, I've got a bad one.

858
00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:10,640
Speaker 1: Yeah.

859
00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:13,680
Speaker 3: Who who was the most dominant dinosaur? Because this guy

860
00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:14,920
Speaker 3: is the most dominant guy.

861
00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:17,480
Speaker 2: On Twitter Tyrannosaurus Rex chatnet.

862
00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:21,839
Speaker 3: There you go, set up to that one.

863
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:23,760
Speaker 1: I'm trying.

864
00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:26,000
Speaker 2: I wouldn't have got it. I probably wouldn't have got

865
00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:27,799
Speaker 2: it with the question. But you you like to say

866
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:30,960
Speaker 2: that the Tyrannosaurus Rex was the most dominant dinosaur. I

867
00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:34,399
Speaker 2: think you've said that before. He was, Yeah, he was, Yeah,

868
00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:35,919
Speaker 2: he his.

869
00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:37,680
Speaker 3: Table man has left a little to be desired.

870
00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:42,879
Speaker 4: But you know, I think I think with those short arms, yeah, yeah,

871
00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:43,760
Speaker 4: spelling out.

872
00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:46,000
Speaker 3: I think I think not only was he a killer,

873
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:47,840
Speaker 3: but he was a scavenger as well. I mean, like

874
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:50,000
Speaker 3: pick your lane. You don't need to be a scavenger

875
00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:51,640
Speaker 3: if you're a killer, do you you know, like.

876
00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:54,480
Speaker 4: That's why you're out the King of the Dinosaurs League.

877
00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:57,040
Speaker 4: You can't do one thing only that's true.

878
00:39:57,160 --> 00:39:57,720
Speaker 3: That's true.

879
00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:03,879
Speaker 1: Next question, Oh Uncle Bucks. Watching the Mantres Harald move

880
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:06,000
Speaker 1: play out over the off season, and I started thinking,

881
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:09,080
Speaker 1: is Montrez Harald just Kenneth for Reid two point oh

882
00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:12,920
Speaker 1: oh holy? Not just the hair, but he's an energy

883
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:15,080
Speaker 1: guy who peeked around his fourth year and then started

884
00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:18,279
Speaker 1: to fade. Not saying Tres is done, but doesn't it

885
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:20,279
Speaker 1: feel like he'll just tail off? From here and end

886
00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:23,600
Speaker 1: up with a very similar career. Turd pickup made some

887
00:40:23,640 --> 00:40:28,840
Speaker 1: fries awful. That's from Intus by way of the Gold Coast, Australia.

888
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:37,000
Speaker 1: Beautiful Gold Coast shout out to Surfer's Paradise, Brisbane. Yeah, okay,

889
00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:40,279
Speaker 1: he's thinking mantras Harald Kenneth for Reid two point Oh tess,

890
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:41,839
Speaker 1: what what's this crazy talk here?

891
00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:46,640
Speaker 2: You can tell everybody's just a little aggravator. Trey Young's

892
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:50,480
Speaker 2: ceiling is Kevin Love no more, no less. We've got

893
00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:53,800
Speaker 2: a Mantrez Harold Kenneth Reid comparison. Everyone's got a reptile

894
00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:59,760
Speaker 2: dysfunction in the league. Come on, now, I think Montrez

895
00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:03,200
Speaker 2: hair well, he's got a lot more touch, a lot

896
00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:05,840
Speaker 2: more ability to score. He's had a couple of seasons

897
00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:09,319
Speaker 2: sixteen and eighteen points. Can three never got close to that.

898
00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:13,400
Speaker 2: So I think Trez is going to stick around longer

899
00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:16,200
Speaker 2: than kennethree did. Ken three had a decent career, and

900
00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:18,319
Speaker 2: maybe it's not over. He's only thirty one. We played

901
00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 2: eight years in the league, went to China in twenty nineteen.

902
00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:24,719
Speaker 2: But yeah, I get what he's saying. They're undersized, But

903
00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:29,040
Speaker 2: I think maybe maybe they found out here in LA

904
00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:32,000
Speaker 2: that he's better utilized coming off the bench, and that

905
00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:33,800
Speaker 2: happened a little bit earlier in his career than it

906
00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:35,400
Speaker 2: did with kennethree. Can three, he thought he's going to

907
00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:39,680
Speaker 2: be a starter forever and didn't really see eye to

908
00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:43,719
Speaker 2: eye with Denver for that reason. But Montrez Harrald knows

909
00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:47,320
Speaker 2: that he is a great bench player and he'll probably

910
00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:50,120
Speaker 2: thrive for a little bit longer because of it. But

911
00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:54,480
Speaker 2: you know, I think this comparison is better than the

912
00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:57,520
Speaker 2: Trey Young Kevin Love comparison. I gotta say, isn't this

913
00:41:57,600 --> 00:42:01,160
Speaker 2: isn't too bad? But yeah, I Tres Harrel's stock has

914
00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:03,000
Speaker 2: dropped since he was six Man of the Year last

915
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,319
Speaker 2: year and now he's a bit of an afterthought, a

916
00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:07,560
Speaker 2: bit of an afterthought in Los Angeles.

917
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:08,719
Speaker 1: What do you think, Tray?

918
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:12,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I kind of agree with this, and I

919
00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:14,920
Speaker 4: kind of think it's more of a cautionary tale than

920
00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:18,200
Speaker 4: anything like Tess is saying. Kenneth Reed was a starter

921
00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:20,440
Speaker 4: right away. He got a huge contract after he had

922
00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:23,319
Speaker 4: a great performance in the World Championships. I think right

923
00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:25,200
Speaker 4: the Feeble World Championships, he went out there and was

924
00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:27,799
Speaker 4: just running wild dunking everything. He looked like he was

925
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:32,280
Speaker 4: going to be a franchise centerpiece for the Nuggets, and

926
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:33,799
Speaker 4: that's when he started wanting.

927
00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:35,120
Speaker 1: To get a whole bunch of post touches.

928
00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:38,160
Speaker 4: And it's like Kenneth Fried, it's hard to stick to

929
00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:40,120
Speaker 4: your role, is what I'm saying. And I think that's

930
00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:42,000
Speaker 4: what we kind of saw with Montrez Harrald with the

931
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:45,120
Speaker 4: Clippers a little bit last season two, where he had

932
00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:47,279
Speaker 4: had a successful season the year before. He was part

933
00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:49,760
Speaker 4: of the culture that lured Kawhi Leonard and Paul George

934
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:52,600
Speaker 4: to La and then they came in there the actual superstars,

935
00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:53,960
Speaker 4: and now it's, hey, I have to just be a

936
00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:56,279
Speaker 4: rim runner again. That's not quite fair. And I think

937
00:42:56,560 --> 00:42:59,400
Speaker 4: the similar thing happened with Fared wanting the post touches.

938
00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:00,960
Speaker 4: It's hard to just be the guy that sets the

939
00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:03,319
Speaker 4: screens and runs to the hoop and tries to dunk

940
00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:05,279
Speaker 4: everything and tries to get every offensive rebound and then

941
00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:07,040
Speaker 4: tries the dunk it again. You want to show off

942
00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:08,560
Speaker 4: the moves. You want to show off that little jab

943
00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:10,799
Speaker 4: step that Montrez Harald has from the wing, because he's

944
00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:12,960
Speaker 4: got it. He can shoot a corner three. But that's

945
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:15,279
Speaker 4: not necessarily what a team like the Lakers or the

946
00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:17,600
Speaker 4: Clippers needs. They need you to play a role. It's

947
00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:19,640
Speaker 4: hard to do, though maybe it's easier when you're actually

948
00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:20,680
Speaker 4: playing for a championship.

949
00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:22,360
Speaker 1: Anything to add Lelee.

950
00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:26,000
Speaker 3: I thought Kenneth three didn't get as much out of

951
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:28,040
Speaker 3: his NBA career as I thought he should have, and

952
00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:30,120
Speaker 3: I think Montrez has gotten more out of his than

953
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:31,520
Speaker 3: I thought he was going to get in his first

954
00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:33,440
Speaker 3: couple of seasons. Aaron Houston, I didn't think he was

955
00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:35,799
Speaker 3: going to stick around, but last season he was good

956
00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:37,920
Speaker 3: to you earn that sixth Man of the Year. He

957
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:40,600
Speaker 3: has some defensive weaknesses, but he's he picked up a

958
00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:42,880
Speaker 3: nice old contract to go and join the Lakers. This season,

959
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:46,480
Speaker 3: his role will be different, but he's extended his career anyway.

960
00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:48,600
Speaker 3: I think if I had to choose at the start

961
00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:50,719
Speaker 3: of their careers, I would have said Farid would have

962
00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:57,240
Speaker 3: had a much longer and fruitier career than Montrez. Yeah, Montrez,

963
00:43:57,440 --> 00:43:59,520
Speaker 3: it feels like Kenneth reed, Like you said, he's only

964
00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:02,040
Speaker 3: thirty one tests is that right? He said, yeah, Oh

965
00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:04,279
Speaker 3: my god, that is young really for a guy who

966
00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:07,959
Speaker 3: hasn't been around forever. Really, so I'm surprised he because

967
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:10,480
Speaker 3: even when he went to Houston and Brooklyn for his

968
00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:13,319
Speaker 3: last couple of seasons, I thought he's still that energy guy,

969
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:15,279
Speaker 3: you know. I thought he'd still be still be a

970
00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:18,279
Speaker 3: role for him in the NBA, but hasn't been able to,

971
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:21,800
Speaker 3: whereas Montrez has really squeezed everything out of his career

972
00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:24,279
Speaker 3: so far to the point where he's, you know, like

973
00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:27,239
Speaker 3: say a six Man of the Year, and the Lakers

974
00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:32,719
Speaker 3: paid him the same contract that what's his name for

975
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:37,400
Speaker 3: the guy? Oh no, Utah Utah got Derek Favors got yeah, basically,

976
00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:39,960
Speaker 3: which is like, wow, that's that's pretty good. Well done

977
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:40,560
Speaker 3: to Tres.

978
00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:43,040
Speaker 1: This is funny timing with this email because just the

979
00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:45,040
Speaker 1: other and eight I was watching I guess it was

980
00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:49,120
Speaker 1: the Walls play and I saw nas Read out there

981
00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:51,040
Speaker 1: playing for them, and I was like, you know, because

982
00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:52,879
Speaker 1: of the long locks. So I was like, oh, yeah,

983
00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:55,360
Speaker 1: Kenneth for Reid. What's that guy up to? Similar names?

984
00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:58,040
Speaker 1: I guess there too, And he had just popped in

985
00:44:58,080 --> 00:44:59,600
Speaker 1: my head. I was like, Wow, that's a guy I

986
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:02,160
Speaker 1: hadn't thought about in a while because we were super high,

987
00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:04,160
Speaker 1: Like you guys are all saying on Kenneth read like

988
00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:06,440
Speaker 1: early in his career. People, we're loving this guy. He

989
00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:10,400
Speaker 1: has some great highlights for sure. But yeah, I hear

990
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:12,960
Speaker 1: what you guys are saying on this Montress Harrald. I

991
00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:14,680
Speaker 1: think is well on his way to having a much

992
00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:17,760
Speaker 1: longer and obviously, what'd you say fruit to your career?

993
00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:20,280
Speaker 3: Yeah? I meant to say fruitful, but I got fruit

994
00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:23,080
Speaker 3: in the fruit in there, so yeah, you know what

995
00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:23,479
Speaker 3: I'm saying.

996
00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:26,360
Speaker 2: Maybe the question was from the Gold Coast of Australia.

997
00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:28,400
Speaker 2: Maybe they grow out of great fruit out there on

998
00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:29,160
Speaker 2: the Gold Cross.

999
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:32,799
Speaker 3: A lot of beautiful tropical fruit up north there, Tassy.

1000
00:45:32,640 --> 00:45:36,400
Speaker 1: Yeah your docket, what's your favorite of the Gold Coast fruit?

1001
00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:37,200
Speaker 7: That?

1002
00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:40,600
Speaker 3: The pineapples are pretty well, got a pretty good reputation

1003
00:45:40,680 --> 00:45:43,759
Speaker 3: coming out of Queensland. Yeah. Yeah, they're also known as

1004
00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:46,120
Speaker 3: the banana benders up in Queensland. They love the good

1005
00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:47,800
Speaker 3: bananas up there. They grow some good ones.

1006
00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:49,719
Speaker 1: Did you ever think about moving there?

1007
00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:50,600
Speaker 2: Ah?

1008
00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:54,000
Speaker 3: Not really, not really. There's a bit of a rivalry

1009
00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:57,719
Speaker 3: between Melbournians and you love bananas, Yeah, I do. I do.

1010
00:45:58,280 --> 00:46:01,040
Speaker 3: I love the holiday up there, beatiful place to holiday.

1011
00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:04,600
Speaker 1: I love my holiday fruit. All right, we got a

1012
00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:05,480
Speaker 1: couple more questions here.

1013
00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:08,359
Speaker 2: Hey guys, sending love to everyone at the No Dunk's crew.

1014
00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:10,279
Speaker 2: This is the first time I've ever tried writing to

1015
00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:12,200
Speaker 2: you guys, and I hope all of you are keeping well,

1016
00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:14,799
Speaker 2: especially mentally with everything going on in the world. I

1017
00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:17,120
Speaker 2: only discovered the podcast on YouTube about two months ago,

1018
00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:19,200
Speaker 2: and I was shocked. I used to love watching the

1019
00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:21,560
Speaker 2: Starter show on the NBA YouTube channel and it was

1020
00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:23,719
Speaker 2: so nice seeing you guys once again, and I've loved

1021
00:46:23,719 --> 00:46:26,239
Speaker 2: listening to you guys every time the podcast comes out.

1022
00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:28,759
Speaker 2: Thank you. In fact, you guys really mean a lot

1023
00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:31,880
Speaker 2: to me. I've struggled with depression and suicidal ideation these

1024
00:46:31,960 --> 00:46:34,239
Speaker 2: last couple of months in the midst of the pandemic,

1025
00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:37,280
Speaker 2: and now having the No Dunks Podcast in my life,

1026
00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:40,360
Speaker 2: I have another thing which I can consistently look forward

1027
00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:44,680
Speaker 2: to and acts as a reminder that life will always

1028
00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:47,360
Speaker 2: be worth living. I'll often smile and laugh along with

1029
00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:49,280
Speaker 2: you guys, and it really helps me feel less alone

1030
00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:51,799
Speaker 2: and always helps to brighten my day. So thank you

1031
00:46:52,080 --> 00:46:55,719
Speaker 2: so much. Also, thank you to Leave for bringing up

1032
00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:58,680
Speaker 2: Cobra Kai. I'm a massive fan of the original nineteen

1033
00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:02,080
Speaker 2: eighty four Karate Kite one of my favorite films, even

1034
00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:05,480
Speaker 2: though I'm only twenty and I binged all three seasons

1035
00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:07,160
Speaker 2: of the show in the first four days of the

1036
00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:10,200
Speaker 2: new year. It was definitely awesome seeing familiar faces, and

1037
00:47:10,239 --> 00:47:12,120
Speaker 2: I can't wait for the four season. I guess I

1038
00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:14,160
Speaker 2: didn't necessarily have a question for you, guys, but just

1039
00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:16,319
Speaker 2: wanted to say thank you for being there for me.

1040
00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:19,160

1047
00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:39,360

1059
00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:14,160
Speaker 1: so much. All right, two more questions. Hey, no dunks,

1060
00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:16,879
Speaker 1: po Dunks. The only time in my adult life I've

1061
00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:20,319
Speaker 1: spent more than forty dollars on clothing was recently on

1062
00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:23,319
Speaker 1: a sweet ass no Dunk sweatshirt my first trip to

1063
00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:26,560
Speaker 1: the grocery store. After receiving it, I admitted to my

1064
00:48:26,719 --> 00:48:28,759
Speaker 1: daughter that I was only wearing it to see if

1065
00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:31,680
Speaker 1: anyone would stop me and chat it up. A winter

1066
00:48:31,840 --> 00:48:34,359
Speaker 1: jacket would have been more appropriate, but he just went

1067
00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:36,960
Speaker 1: with this sweater. When was the time you connected with

1068
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:41,879
Speaker 1: a stranger over a shared interest or alternatively, which subculture

1069
00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:44,280
Speaker 1: that you belong to would you most like to bond

1070
00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:50,680
Speaker 1: with a stranger over turn up? That's from mister Tomato Trey.

1071
00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:51,400
Speaker 1: What do you got?

1072
00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:52,200
Speaker 5: Oh?

1073
00:48:52,239 --> 00:48:55,960
Speaker 4: I love chatting with amateur mushroom enthusiasts.

1074
00:48:56,320 --> 00:48:56,759
Speaker 1: I love it.

1075
00:48:56,800 --> 00:48:58,560
Speaker 4: I couldn't believe it when you got a bag of

1076
00:48:58,600 --> 00:49:01,560
Speaker 4: beans filled with mushrooms as well, I name drop some

1077
00:49:01,600 --> 00:49:04,239
Speaker 4: of the books I've been reading about mushrooms in a

1078
00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:08,239
Speaker 4: four sigmatic ad read earlier this week Entangled Life by

1079
00:49:08,280 --> 00:49:11,080
Speaker 4: Merlin Sheldrake. It's everything you need to know about fungi,

1080
00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:14,360
Speaker 4: the history, how they interact with the modern world, potential

1081
00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:17,520
Speaker 4: future uses, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. Also a

1082
00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:19,720
Speaker 4: great one, How to Change Your Mind by Michael Pollen,

1083
00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:23,799
Speaker 4: which is more of the psychedelic applications of these mushrooms.

1084
00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:27,560
Speaker 4: But people who are interested in mushrooms, not just the

1085
00:49:27,560 --> 00:49:30,880
Speaker 4: psychedelic kind, mushrooms in general, really believe that mushrooms can

1086
00:49:30,920 --> 00:49:34,160
Speaker 4: change the world. Everybody who's interested in them has some

1087
00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:37,600
Speaker 4: weird extra tidbit you've never heard about. These things are ancient.

1088
00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:41,280
Speaker 4: They're gonna survive forever, long after we are gone. They're

1089
00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:45,239
Speaker 4: super important to our environment, to the ecology of the globe.

1090
00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:48,040
Speaker 4: There are so many varieties. They look incredible, There are

1091
00:49:48,120 --> 00:49:50,720
Speaker 4: so many different looks. They look so delicate and fragile,

1092
00:49:50,719 --> 00:49:54,560
Speaker 4: but they're very sturdy. We know so much about plants

1093
00:49:55,120 --> 00:49:58,520
Speaker 4: and animals, and there's this huge thing called my celium

1094
00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:00,560
Speaker 4: out there, and all of these mushrooms and the micro

1095
00:50:00,680 --> 00:50:03,160
Speaker 4: Rhizel network that we don't know a lot about, despite

1096
00:50:03,160 --> 00:50:06,600
Speaker 4: the fact that they have been there for eons and eons.

1097
00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:09,680
Speaker 4: So anytime I hear something about mushrooms, I'm always I'm

1098
00:50:09,719 --> 00:50:13,400
Speaker 4: always thrilled by it. Sometimes it's on my new favorite newsletter,

1099
00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:16,360
Speaker 4: Blackbird Spy Plane. Sometimes it's talking to my mother in

1100
00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:18,680
Speaker 4: law shout out to Janna and her Sea Gap, trying

1101
00:50:18,719 --> 00:50:21,480
Speaker 4: to capture every single kind of mushroom out there. We're

1102
00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:25,359
Speaker 4: talking about hundreds of thousands of varieties of mushrooms, all

1103
00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:27,239
Speaker 4: just out there. They're just out there. We could go

1104
00:50:27,239 --> 00:50:28,200
Speaker 4: find them if we wanted to.

1105
00:50:31,640 --> 00:50:34,760
Speaker 1: Cut test stretching there. You're so passionate about your buddy.

1106
00:50:34,840 --> 00:50:35,279
Speaker 1: I love them.

1107
00:50:35,520 --> 00:50:38,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love them too. All of a sudden, I've

1108
00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:41,400
Speaker 2: never heard someone so passionate about mushrooms.

1109
00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:44,840
Speaker 1: Yeah you're in now, Eh you can. Can you compost

1110
00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:46,000
Speaker 1: a mushroom? I'm sure you can.

1111
00:50:46,080 --> 00:50:51,279
Speaker 2: Right When's a mushroom pod happening? Podcast on shrooms?

1112
00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:52,040
Speaker 5: Wow?

1113
00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:53,320
Speaker 1: On trooms.

1114
00:50:54,760 --> 00:50:57,120
Speaker 4: Wow, that'd be pretty crazy. There's exciting work being done

1115
00:50:57,160 --> 00:50:59,239
Speaker 4: in those realms, but there's also exciting work being done

1116
00:50:59,239 --> 00:51:01,200
Speaker 4: in the just the sign typic realms With mushrooms. They're

1117
00:51:01,239 --> 00:51:03,640
Speaker 4: saying these could be is for plastic decomposition as a

1118
00:51:03,640 --> 00:51:05,840
Speaker 4: way to get rid of the giant landfills that we

1119
00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:08,399
Speaker 4: have that are taking over the earth. Who knows, who

1120
00:51:08,400 --> 00:51:09,719
Speaker 4: knows what they're going to be able to do. It's

1121
00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:12,000
Speaker 4: just amazing. You know, these are life forms that come

1122
00:51:12,040 --> 00:51:12,959
Speaker 4: from things that are dying.

1123
00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:16,120
Speaker 1: Pretty cool. Yeah, if you were to have a mushroom podcast,

1124
00:51:16,120 --> 00:51:18,840
Speaker 1: what would you call it? Trey? Anything comes to mine?

1125
00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:21,160
Speaker 4: I mean, I assume we would have to do it

1126
00:51:21,239 --> 00:51:23,440
Speaker 4: virtually like we're doing, so I probably call it Schroman

1127
00:51:23,480 --> 00:51:24,200
Speaker 4: and Zooming.

1128
00:51:26,640 --> 00:51:27,480
Speaker 3: With John Schuman.

1129
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:31,560
Speaker 1: Well, actually, there's.

1130
00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:34,759
Speaker 4: Over a million varieties of mushrooms out there, and that's not.

1131
00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:37,279
Speaker 1: Even factoring in the liking. Yeah, the whole the whole

1132
00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:40,920
Speaker 1: mushroom podcast is trade giving a mushroom fact and then

1133
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:45,760
Speaker 1: Schuman say hashtag, well actually and that fact correcting that fact.

1134
00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:48,480
Speaker 1: All right, Well, Lee, have you h you know, have

1135
00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:51,800
Speaker 1: you ever bonded with a with a stranger over a

1136
00:51:51,920 --> 00:51:52,560
Speaker 1: shared interest?

1137
00:51:52,760 --> 00:51:54,960
Speaker 3: A couple of times and it's been a bad. Cricket.

1138
00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:58,240
Speaker 3: The great thing about cricket is it's an international game

1139
00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:02,800
Speaker 3: and so uh. During the nineteen ninety nine Cricket World Cup,

1140
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:06,840
Speaker 3: I bonded with the guy who ran a convenience store

1141
00:52:06,920 --> 00:52:08,719
Speaker 3: just over the road from where I lived, This Pakistani

1142
00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:11,760
Speaker 3: guy named Hadji and me and him, like the Cricket

1143
00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:14,040
Speaker 3: World Cup goes for far too it goes like six weeks,

1144
00:52:14,040 --> 00:52:16,960
Speaker 3: like it's way too long. But me and Haji had

1145
00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:18,600
Speaker 3: a great old time and we met in the final

1146
00:52:18,640 --> 00:52:21,000
Speaker 3: Australia versus Pakistan. We had a bet. We have a

1147
00:52:21,080 --> 00:52:23,960
Speaker 3: five pound bet and on the day of the final,

1148
00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:25,880
Speaker 3: had you had his Pakistan shirt and I had my

1149
00:52:25,920 --> 00:52:27,840
Speaker 3: Australia shirt on. We had a great old time in

1150
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:31,320
Speaker 3: Australia one. He was happy, he was a good loser,

1151
00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:33,360
Speaker 3: but it was just a lot of fun. And then

1152
00:52:33,840 --> 00:52:36,000
Speaker 3: in two thousand and three he went to Barbados for

1153
00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:39,400
Speaker 3: Australia versus the West Indies. Cricket Now, sometimes when you

1154
00:52:39,440 --> 00:52:42,080
Speaker 3: go to sporting events around the world, they really separate

1155
00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:44,799
Speaker 3: the visitors from the home team because sometimes you know,

1156
00:52:44,840 --> 00:52:46,319
Speaker 3: things can get a little bit tense. But in the

1157
00:52:46,320 --> 00:52:49,520
Speaker 3: cricket world it's the opposite, like that, you have way

1158
00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:52,480
Speaker 3: more fun when you bond with the locals. And so

1159
00:52:52,640 --> 00:52:54,800
Speaker 3: me and Trigger and Big Matt we got our tickets

1160
00:52:54,840 --> 00:52:56,440
Speaker 3: and we sat.

1161
00:52:56,760 --> 00:53:00,279
Speaker 1: That's a big Matt. Then it is a big mat.

1162
00:53:00,120 --> 00:53:03,080
Speaker 3: And we got our tickets and we sat in the

1163
00:53:03,120 --> 00:53:07,920
Speaker 3: stand there with all the local bar Beajians and they

1164
00:53:07,960 --> 00:53:10,319
Speaker 3: were like giving us drinks and giving us food, and

1165
00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:12,799
Speaker 3: we were having great old time, like it was just

1166
00:53:12,880 --> 00:53:15,279
Speaker 3: so much fun, a really really good time there. And

1167
00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:18,000
Speaker 3: you know that's a thing about cricket, Like it's a day.

1168
00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:19,719
Speaker 3: It's not like a two hour event where you come

1169
00:53:19,719 --> 00:53:22,040
Speaker 3: in and go home. You spend all day with these people.

1170
00:53:22,040 --> 00:53:24,759
Speaker 3: And I remember at one point we were drinking the

1171
00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:31,319
Speaker 3: Mount Gay rum and coke I think it was, and no,

1172
00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:33,719
Speaker 3: we should have been. Yeah, And it was a hot day,

1173
00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:36,400
Speaker 3: of course, it's always is for cricket. And I finished

1174
00:53:36,400 --> 00:53:39,440
Speaker 3: my drink and I ran out of ice, and this

1175
00:53:39,520 --> 00:53:42,440
Speaker 3: lady is just like bumping her husband like this. He

1176
00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:44,839
Speaker 3: give him some more ice. And the old man there,

1177
00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:47,600
Speaker 3: he's watching the game. It's kind of gross, but he

1178
00:53:47,719 --> 00:53:50,839
Speaker 3: just lifts up his cooler, grabs a chunk of ice

1179
00:53:50,880 --> 00:53:52,880
Speaker 3: with his hands and just throws it into my drink.

1180
00:53:54,560 --> 00:53:56,400
Speaker 3: But at that point everyone was drunk and having a

1181
00:53:56,440 --> 00:53:59,000
Speaker 3: great time, so you overlook the fact that it's not

1182
00:53:59,040 --> 00:54:02,200
Speaker 3: the most hygienic of all type. And you're just like, yeah,

1183
00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:03,759
Speaker 3: this is great. This is what we wanted to do.

1184
00:54:04,440 --> 00:54:05,880
Speaker 3: So we had a great old time.

1185
00:54:07,920 --> 00:54:09,279
Speaker 1: Some visualcket.

1186
00:54:09,320 --> 00:54:12,320
Speaker 3: Cricket bring brings people together, it's so much fun.

1187
00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:15,520
Speaker 1: I just love that visual of you finishing your drink.

1188
00:54:16,320 --> 00:54:18,680
Speaker 1: You're out of ice. You didn't ask for ice from

1189
00:54:18,680 --> 00:54:21,520
Speaker 1: the woman, but yeah, but she noticed that you're out

1190
00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:24,520
Speaker 1: of ice. Hits her husband who's trying to watch a

1191
00:54:24,560 --> 00:54:26,719
Speaker 1: cricket game, and he's kind of just scoop some ice

1192
00:54:26,719 --> 00:54:28,040
Speaker 1: for this random azzie.

1193
00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:31,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, just with his hands. It was kind of like, well,

1194
00:54:31,040 --> 00:54:32,480
Speaker 3: if you want it, you're getting it like this, And

1195
00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:34,440
Speaker 3: I was just like, yeah, I don't care who cares

1196
00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:36,719
Speaker 3: put it in there. As long as we get some

1197
00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:38,440
Speaker 3: more rum and coke in there would be great. It

1198
00:54:38,560 --> 00:54:41,640
Speaker 3: was such a great time out there because they've got

1199
00:54:41,640 --> 00:54:45,440
Speaker 3: the old like wooden wooden seats. Yeah, so you've sort

1200
00:54:45,480 --> 00:54:47,520
Speaker 3: of got an allocation for your seat, but there's no

1201
00:54:47,640 --> 00:54:49,359
Speaker 3: usher who's like, hey, you're sitting in the wrong seat.

1202
00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:52,560
Speaker 3: He is sit wherever you want, really, but that's the atmosphere.

1203
00:54:52,600 --> 00:54:55,040
Speaker 3: It's great. It's like you're sitting amongst friends, right and

1227
00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:12,520
Speaker 2: right now if it somehow got me a draft beer

1228
00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:14,960
Speaker 2: because I haven't had one in years. Like I like

1229
00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:17,279
Speaker 2: different kinds of beer, I you know, I like, I

1230
00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:21,000
Speaker 2: like my hippity hops. But I've never never really joined

1231
00:56:21,880 --> 00:56:26,439
Speaker 2: a beer club. Itise exist, I mean I guess, I guess, yeah,

1232
00:56:26,440 --> 00:56:28,200
Speaker 2: I guess they do if people bond have a beer.

1233
00:56:28,239 --> 00:56:33,160
Speaker 2: But I think this is yeah, but I mean yeah, right,

1234
00:56:33,520 --> 00:56:35,960
Speaker 2: but I mean, you know, like, hey, we're gonna go

1235
00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:39,640
Speaker 2: have our our special beer today, we all have to

1236
00:56:39,719 --> 00:56:44,040
Speaker 2: drink the same thing. Yeah, yeah, I guess yeah, yeah,

1237
00:56:44,040 --> 00:56:45,960
Speaker 2: I'm sure it happens. I mean, yes, I love me

1238
00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:48,080
Speaker 2: some breweries and that kind of stuff, but basically, I

1239
00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:50,279
Speaker 2: just want a beer, and I don't care about how

1240
00:56:50,360 --> 00:56:53,080
Speaker 2: dirty the line is and how you know when they

1241
00:56:53,200 --> 00:56:56,400
Speaker 2: last cleaned it. I think this is I think Skeets

1242
00:56:56,440 --> 00:56:59,480
Speaker 2: answered the same thing ten months ago in the pandemic

1243
00:56:59,560 --> 00:57:03,799
Speaker 2: once upon a time when things weren't open. I just

1244
00:57:04,040 --> 00:57:05,839
Speaker 2: I just want normalcy here.

1245
00:57:05,880 --> 00:57:10,439
Speaker 1: We are still things not open, or at least, well, well,

1246
00:57:10,480 --> 00:57:12,919
Speaker 1: things are open where we are, but nobody's going out.

1247
00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:15,200
Speaker 1: I just at least it sounds like from the five

1248
00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:18,880
Speaker 1: of us, Yeah, that'd be nice. One day we'll be

1249
00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:20,800
Speaker 1: able to go and have a beer in.

1250
00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:21,280
Speaker 3: A bar.

1251
00:57:22,840 --> 00:57:26,080
Speaker 1: Down at the beer club, man Bond. I guess my

1252
00:57:26,280 --> 00:57:29,680
Speaker 1: quick answer to this is just, you know, anytime when

1253
00:57:29,680 --> 00:57:32,720
Speaker 1: we used to go to parties and meet new people,

1254
00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:37,400
Speaker 1: remember that that was wild. Anytime you found out someone

1255
00:57:37,480 --> 00:57:40,360
Speaker 1: was a Survivor fan, well then it was now we're

1256
00:57:40,360 --> 00:57:42,960
Speaker 1: best friends. Let's talk about Survivor for the next half hour,

1257
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:44,760
Speaker 1: and everybody else gets upset. You just go over to

1258
00:57:44,800 --> 00:57:46,680
Speaker 1: the corner of the room. Always your favorite players. Oh

00:57:49,680 --> 00:57:52,720
Speaker 1: So that's my subculture that I'm really invested in. JD.

1261
00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:54,600
Speaker 1: I don't know if you're a I think you're a

1262
00:57:54,600 --> 00:57:56,440

Speaker 1: or is it just Matt and Trigger?

1308
00:59:58,720 --> 01:00:02,160
Speaker 3: Well it's probably it's probably just Big Matt and Trigger. Yeah,

1309
01:00:02,320 --> 01:00:04,920
Speaker 3: but uh, that was a great trip, great time we

1310

01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:28,600
Speaker 5: But there's nothing so lonesome molded drear understand in the

1379
01:03:28,680 --> 01:03:31,120
Speaker 5: bar of a pub with no beer.

1380
01:03:32,440 --> 01:03:32,760
Speaker 1: Alright?

1381
01:03:35,120 --> 01:03:38,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, So when when I got this question yesterday, I

1382
01:03:38,120 --> 01:03:40,600
Speaker 3: thought I could just explain the question and give the

1383
01:03:40,640 --> 01:03:42,520
Speaker 3: answer to the guys there. But then I thought, well,

1384
01:03:43,400 --> 01:03:45,840
Speaker 3: there's nothing what fans want more than me to sort

1385
01:03:45,840 --> 01:03:49,480
Speaker 3: have tried to sing something. So I reworked slim Dusty's

1386
01:03:49,480 --> 01:03:51,520
Speaker 3: pub with no beer as Sam asked, to make it

1387
01:03:51,880 --> 01:03:57,080
Speaker 3: a rim with no net. So here goes, there's no music.

1388
01:03:57,080 --> 01:04:00,919
Speaker 3: I'm just going to go a cappella on this one. Okay, sure, Oh,

1389
01:04:01,080 --> 01:04:04,760
Speaker 3: you pack up your gym bag, short shoes and all

1390
01:04:05,080 --> 01:04:08,760
Speaker 3: and head to the court where you're about to play ball.

1391
01:04:09,160 --> 01:04:12,320
Speaker 3: But there's nothing so maddening or that will make you

1392
01:04:12,440 --> 01:04:15,880
Speaker 3: fret than to stand on a court of a rim

1393
01:04:15,960 --> 01:04:20,720
Speaker 3: with no net. Now the players are anxious for the

1394
01:04:20,760 --> 01:04:24,040
Speaker 3: game to start, but there's a look of concern on

1395
01:04:24,160 --> 01:04:27,520
Speaker 3: the face of the guard because how well he know

1396
01:04:28,000 --> 01:04:32,000
Speaker 3: if his jumper is wet. Oh what a terrible court

1397
01:04:32,360 --> 01:04:36,000
Speaker 3: is a rim with no net? Hey more players turn

1398
01:04:36,080 --> 01:04:40,320
Speaker 3: up ready to have fun. They lace up their sneakers

1399
01:04:40,360 --> 01:04:43,680
Speaker 3: and head out to run. But today's a day on

1400
01:04:43,800 --> 01:04:48,880
Speaker 3: the court. They'll quickly forget as they all realize the

1401
01:04:49,080 --> 01:04:53,320
Speaker 3: rim has no net. Then the big guy arrives, He

1402
01:04:53,360 --> 01:04:59,080
Speaker 3: brings his own ball. He gets close to the court

1403
01:04:59,360 --> 01:05:03,080
Speaker 3: when he is the call. The other guys know that

1404
01:05:03,520 --> 01:05:09,160
Speaker 3: he'll be upset when he learns that the rim has.

1405
01:05:12,320 --> 01:05:16,280
Speaker 1: Wow, you missed your calling, man, It could have been

1406
01:05:16,320 --> 01:05:19,000
Speaker 1: Australian's second biggest country singer.

1407
01:05:19,080 --> 01:05:22,720
Speaker 3: I think, yeah, yeah, Slim, Dusty and me, we could

1408
01:05:22,720 --> 01:05:24,480
Speaker 3: have we could have we could have been special. But

1409
01:05:24,920 --> 01:05:26,680
Speaker 3: mister a few years it.

1410
01:05:26,760 --> 01:05:29,240
Speaker 1: Was well done, good lyrics that following along.

1411
01:05:29,720 --> 01:05:31,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it was fun. It was fun to put

1412
01:05:31,720 --> 01:05:33,680
Speaker 3: it together. But I was thinking, I was thinking, how

1413
01:05:33,680 --> 01:05:34,840
Speaker 3: am I how am I going to sing this and

1414
01:05:34,880 --> 01:05:36,560
Speaker 3: I thought, I don't try to sing it, just try

1415
01:05:36,600 --> 01:05:40,520
Speaker 3: to like, you know, say it like it's a poem. Almost.

1416
01:05:40,920 --> 01:05:42,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, you were singing.

1417
01:05:42,600 --> 01:05:45,120
Speaker 2: You must that was singing. You must know slim Dusty.

1418
01:05:45,240 --> 01:05:48,440
Speaker 2: Slim Dusty must must be on your part, on your.

1419
01:05:50,480 --> 01:05:54,959
Speaker 3: In my in my Spotify you fan growing up well

1420
01:05:55,320 --> 01:05:57,880
Speaker 3: sort of. I mean, you know, country music in Australia

1421
01:05:57,920 --> 01:06:01,240
Speaker 3: is not not huge, so everyone who slim Dusty is

1422
01:06:01,240 --> 01:06:04,880
Speaker 3: but you know, never saw him live unfortunately.

1423
01:06:05,520 --> 01:06:07,920

01:06:07,960 --> 01:06:10,400

01:07:14,400 --> 01:07:15,919
Speaker 1: we're ready to do our emergency pot.

1445
01:07:16,320 --> 01:07:19,280
Speaker 3: One minute ago, that was with Roma Shelburne saying that

1446
01:07:19,360 --> 01:07:22,280
Speaker 3: Brooklyn is acquiring him. So yeah, oh my, who's gonna

1447
01:07:22,280 --> 01:07:25,280
Speaker 3: get in the next details? Steiny shams or or wo

1448
01:07:25,360 --> 01:07:26,040
Speaker 3: wash follow it up.

1449
01:07:26,320 --> 01:07:27,960
Speaker 4: I thought it was a joke that where you were

1450
01:07:28,000 --> 01:07:30,920
Speaker 4: going to stretch for so long the trade happened, But

1451
01:07:31,000 --> 01:07:34,440
Speaker 4: after we talked about a beer club and mushrooms and

1452
01:07:34,520 --> 01:07:37,240
Speaker 4: came up with a new country song, it finally happened.

1453
01:07:37,400 --> 01:07:41,240
Speaker 1: It's incredible classic, it's incredible. All right, breaking news here.

1454
01:07:41,320 --> 01:07:43,040
Speaker 3: Who would he be going back? Let's have a guess

1455
01:07:43,040 --> 01:07:43,880
Speaker 3: who would be going back?

1456
01:07:43,960 --> 01:07:44,040
Speaker 7: Oh?

1457
01:07:44,120 --> 01:07:44,480
Speaker 2: Here we go.

1458
01:07:44,880 --> 01:07:47,520
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, I'm thinking the Nets. Look, if the

1459
01:07:47,640 --> 01:07:50,840
Speaker 1: Sixers deal was to be believed, then the Nets obviously

1460
01:07:50,880 --> 01:07:53,120
Speaker 1: I think, had to sweeten it. If they really wanted Harden,

1461
01:07:53,360 --> 01:07:56,120
Speaker 1: is my guess. So it's got to be Karris Lavert.

1462
01:07:56,640 --> 01:08:00,360
Speaker 1: I'm thinking Dinities. Even there, I'm just fascinated. If Allen

1463
01:08:00,480 --> 01:08:02,120
Speaker 1: is in the mix, that's the real question.

1464
01:08:02,200 --> 01:08:04,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, we we haven't got the details yet.

1465
01:08:04,920 --> 01:08:06,760
Speaker 1: They said they were gonna give them, wasn't it Sham's

1466
01:08:06,800 --> 01:08:08,680
Speaker 1: reporting that they were like willing to give up like

1467
01:08:09,200 --> 01:08:12,240
Speaker 1: all of their picks. Basically the nets were like four

1468
01:08:12,320 --> 01:08:14,240
Speaker 1: first round picks and then three swaps. That's what he

1469
01:08:14,320 --> 01:08:16,799
Speaker 1: was reporting this morning or the afternoon.

1470
01:08:17,439 --> 01:08:20,160
Speaker 3: Oh man, okay, I mean, is there any chance Kyrie

1471
01:08:20,240 --> 01:08:21,000
Speaker 3: goes to the rockets?

1472
01:08:21,040 --> 01:08:23,719
Speaker 1: That just wow, wow wow wow wow.

1473
01:08:24,280 --> 01:08:27,519
Speaker 3: I mean salary wise, that's that's easy. But yeah, yeah

1474
01:08:27,560 --> 01:08:27,800
Speaker 3: it is.

1475
01:08:29,400 --> 01:08:32,080
Speaker 1: Well, why don't we just wrap this up, get our details,

1476
01:08:32,160 --> 01:08:34,680
Speaker 1: and maybe talk about it a little bit later back

1477
01:08:34,840 --> 01:08:37,120
Speaker 1: to the factory. Yeah, I think so. I think that

1478
01:08:37,240 --> 01:08:40,519
Speaker 1: makes the most sense. So let's thank everybody for joining
