Speaker 4: get things back on track, and you guys had a

50
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:23,280

00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:24,520

Speaker 4: I highly recommend you check out that podcast that's one

53
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,080

00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 4: you guys that will blast.

55
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 2: Down there yesterday.

56
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 5: John was really fun. He was in a good good spirits.

57
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 1: Yeah. I did notice those skates you called it one

58
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,360
Speaker 1: on one. Seemed to be two of us down here

59
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 1: interviewing John Hollin.

60
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know.

61
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:44,959
Speaker 1: Then again, we did have a show called The Starters

62
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 1: for six years, four guys on it, so that's fine.

63
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, really care.

64
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 4: Sometimes it might be one on one. Sometimes it might

65
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:55,959
Speaker 4: be two on one like it was yesterday. Maybe it'll

66
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 4: be a three on one, a four on one, maybe

67
00:02:57,919 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 4: it'll be a three on two. Maybe we'll interview two

68
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 4: guests out once. Who knows, but let's just go with

69
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:03,519
Speaker 4: one on one right now. That was great work, guys,

70
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 4: So again, check that out. All right, we got some

71
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 4: up and down fun, up or down fun, I should

72
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 4: say a little bit later in the show. But looking

73
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 4: back quickly at last night's action, there was eleven games on.

74
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 4: We're not gonna be able to get to them all here,

75
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,679
Speaker 4: but one that you were at again, Trey and maybe

76
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 4: one of the more entertaining games of the night Sixers

77
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:26,359
Speaker 4: one oh five Hawks kicka one o three. Trey Young

78
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,400
Speaker 4: on fire in the first quarter, but that that pesky

79
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,640
Speaker 4: Sixers defense through the length at them with Josh Richardson

80
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 4: and Thible and all that, and they slowed him down

81
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 4: as the game went on. But a close game looked

82
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 4: like a fun one down at the Fortress again despite

83
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 4: the Hawks coming up short.

84
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 2: Tray.

85
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's always a risk to go to a game

86
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 1: when there's a whole bunch of games on the schedule,

87
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 1: but last night it paid off. Kind of the first

88
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 1: test to see where the Hawks are sort of actually

89
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 1: at in the rankings in the Eastern Conference. I thought

90
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 1: we learned two things. Number One, you figured out how

91
00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 1: teams are gonna guard Trey Young when they really needed

92
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 1: to shut him down. The Sixers, when they picked up

93
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 1: the defense, they got the ball out of his hands.

94
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 1: They were picking him up closer to half court, sometimes

95
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 1: even after half court. So that to me is gonna

96
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 1: be the next thing that Trey Young needs to do

97
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 1: is figure out how to attack the traps and also

98
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:18,599
Speaker 1: attack guys who are a lot longer than he is.

99
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:20,479
Speaker 1: I think like Steph Curry, I remember used to have

100
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 1: problems with like Atabo Cephalosha. Andre Roberson was always the

101
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 1: kind of guy that was gonna maybe be the stepf stopper,

102
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 1: those guys who can move their feet and still be

103
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,040
Speaker 1: long enough to contest shots. The other thing I thought

104
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 1: we learned was that the Sixers defense is going to

105
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,479
Speaker 1: be incredible. They gave up forty points in the first

106
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 1: court of the Hawks, which seemed insane, but then they

107
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,159
Speaker 1: started trying on defense for the final three quarters, they

108
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 1: shut things down. Trey Young scored nine points on on

109
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 1: three pointers in the first five minutes the game. He

110
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 1: made two, got fouled on another, made the free throws.

111
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 1: None after that. Yeah, they just looked incredible. Brett Brown

112
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,040
Speaker 1: said afterwards that they just got into their defense a

113
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,040
Speaker 1: little more. They decided to pick him up earlier. They

114
00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 1: said to play with a little bit more intensity. Ben

115
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 1: Simmons said he was saving himself for the fourth quarter

116
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 1: to be able to guard Tree Young. So I don't know,

117
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:05,920
Speaker 1: when you look at the Sixers offense, it's going to

118
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 1: be ugly sometimes, but the defense is also going to

119
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 1: be ugly sometimes. They've got so many guys that they

120
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:11,919
Speaker 1: could throw at a ball handler like Trey Young. We

121
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,240
Speaker 1: saw Richardson take a turn, we saw Table take a turn,

122
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 1: we saw Simmons take a turn. That's a lot of

123
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: different guys who can guard the best.

124
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:18,679
Speaker 5: In the league.

125
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, you talk about their offense. I'm still sort of

126
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,919
Speaker 3: surprised that the Sixers won this game because it seemed

127
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 3: to bog down late, but they were able to still

128
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:30,279
Speaker 3: get baskets because the Simmons and Emb'd combination. That's a

129
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 3: question that still hasn't got a clear answer, and there

130
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,479
Speaker 3: was a time in the fourth quarter there where it

131
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,480
Speaker 3: just looked like there was too many bodies. They brought

132
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 3: in our Hawford to hopefully spread the floor a little bit,

133
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 3: and he can do that. He wasn't really shooting the

134
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 3: ball all that well last night. But that is still

135
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:44,600
Speaker 3: going to be a problem for the Sixers to figure

136
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 3: out why their defense is this good. It's going to

137
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 3: keep them in games, but at some point, I think

138
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:50,920
Speaker 3: Brett Brown is going to try to have to figure

139
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:54,159
Speaker 3: out a way to just use up a little bit, because,

140
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 3: as I say, they won this game they're three to

141
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 3: zero in the season, so great for the Sixers, but

142
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,359
Speaker 3: just watching them on off fences like that, there's a

143
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:05,160
Speaker 3: real congestion issue. I think they're late because Simmons likes

144
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 3: to go inside and sometimes as that jump in the

145
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,479
Speaker 3: air pass and then Bid can shoot the three. We

146
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 3: know he's capable of doing it, but he prefers to

147
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 3: go inside, and especially against uh like John Collins last night,

148
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 3: who's a big, tall guy, but he's not that physically

149
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 3: strong against someone like Embiid and Bead should be down

150
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:24,320
Speaker 3: there really dominating the paint. So good, good win for

151
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,480
Speaker 3: the Sixers in the end. I mean, Vince nearly nearly

152
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:28,159
Speaker 3: pulled the rabbit out of that then, and that would

153
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 3: have been awesome, wouldn't it That Vince hits that runner

154
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 3: at the end of the game.

155
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,479
Speaker 4: But that went back to Tree Young. There was there

156
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,040
Speaker 4: was time for that ball to go back to Treon.

157
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 4: I know that they sort of. It was weird because

158
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,039
Speaker 4: Trey stopped when when he was flying up the court.

159
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:42,160
Speaker 4: There was a lot of time they had to get

160
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,159
Speaker 4: this shot off. I got it, but he sort of

161
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 4: stopped and maybe that was on him. Maybe he kept

162
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:48,280
Speaker 4: going and the pass could have found him. But then

163
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:49,680
Speaker 4: it was like, okay, well we got to give it

164
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 4: to Trey, but to Vince excuse me, but you know,

165
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:53,280
Speaker 4: he just fires up.

166
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 2: There was no hope that was going in. Really, I

167
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 2: that was a horrible shot. That's stupid.

168
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 4: Give it back to the star guy that hits can

169
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 4: hit thirty foot bombs. It could have gone back to him.

170
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,679
Speaker 5: Tree was asking for it. Trey was there, he stopped,

171
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 5: he was he had his arms reached out. He was

172
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 5: asking old man, give him give me the ball. It's

173
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 5: my turn. And I thought it had no shot as well.

174
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 5: But then you see one angle the corner from from

175
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 5: where you guys were sitting. Trey there in uh, in

176
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 5: press row above the six man section. It was online.

177
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 5: It wasn't that far off. It was close. But uh,

178
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 5: I don't know how you really enjoyed that game all

179
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 5: that much. I know, to start was great, Trey Young

180
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 5: drops Josh Richardson, Hello, the arena is going crazy. It

181
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 5: feels it feels like there's there's definitely more of a

182
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 5: buzz down there, at least through the television. And then

183
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 5: this Philadelphia seventy six ers team. As much as I

184
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 5: love the personalities and I love how they're playing bashball

185
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,560
Speaker 5: basically with all these big dudes and not a lot

186
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 5: of shooting right now, it can get ugly and and

187
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 5: and they they definitely need somebody to spread it out

188
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 5: and and and you know, if you like defense, you

189
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 5: like the Sixers team. Yeah, And that's I think they'll

190
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 5: worry with Trey Young, there's nobody else to create. And

191
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 5: is he gonna get gassed when teams really want to

192
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,080
Speaker 5: bog down? Maybe it's over to start the season, as

193
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 5: you said, Trey, when teams don't necessarily care all that

194
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:20,240
Speaker 5: much about doubling and taking one guy out of the game.

195
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 5: But in a fourth quarter, isn't that what you You're

196
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 5: just gonna do that with this team? Is Cam Reddish

197
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 5: gonna make things happen?

198
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 1: Well, the rookies looked like rookies last night because they

199
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 1: were taking the ball out of Trey Young's hand. So

200
00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:33,520
Speaker 1: Hunter had chances to make plays, Reddish had chances to

201
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,440
Speaker 1: make plays, but they just couldn't. There was a lot

202
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,319
Speaker 1: of turnovers. The Sixers length became a massive problem for

203
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 1: both of those guys, and they just looked overwhelmed. You know,

204
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 1: they're playing their third game in the NBA, but you're right,

205
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,680
Speaker 1: task they need somebody else who can create shots, because

206
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:50,319
Speaker 1: when it comes down to it, Trey Young is gonna

207
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 1: at least sometimes not have the ball. Somebody else has

208
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 1: to be able to do something. You know, nobody else

209
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,200
Speaker 1: scored in the fourth quarter for the Hawks except for

210
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,320
Speaker 1: a John Collins tip, which was like a miracle tip.

211
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:01,719
Speaker 1: It was a there's got to be somebody else. That

212
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 1: being said, they're in what year two of a rebuild,

213
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: maybe year three of rebuild, So as long as one

214
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:09,640
Speaker 1: of Hunter or Reddish pops, I think they will be happy.

215
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 1: You saw Reddit Hunter make a couple of plays earlier

216
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 1: in the game, but a.

217
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 5: Little bit different. I love DeAndre Hunter. I'm so excited

218
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 5: to watch him play. I just want this timeline to

219
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 5: be sped up like crazy. I'm sure everybody in that

220
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 5: front office and Travish Flank and everything they've done, they're

221
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 5: very happy with how things are going. They're happy with

222
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 5: the Luca Dantris trade for Trey Young and what they

223
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,600
Speaker 5: got in Cam Reddish. I just want to see it

224
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:36,120
Speaker 5: happen now because that that arena wants to pop. And yeah,

225
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 5: I want to see a playoff team. But Tree Young's

226
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 5: doing everything he can out there. We just need, we

227
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,439
Speaker 5: just need. What about John Collins? His numbers have dropped

228
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 5: off a little bit to start this season. I know

229
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,840
Speaker 5: you were high on him trade to coming into this year.

230
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 5: Going from listen, it's three games, but going from nineteen

231
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,439
Speaker 5: and ten to fourteen and ten, he's he's just shooting

232
00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 5: less and he missed a beautiful tip at the end

233
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,680
Speaker 5: there could have sealed it with a minute left.

234
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that huge ally Yeah yeah, a little bit

235
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:09,360
Speaker 1: too high. It would have been a great finish if

236
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 1: you put it down. But I mean, coming into the season,

237
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:13,880
Speaker 1: Collins was talking about being a playmaker too. He hasn't

238
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:15,720
Speaker 1: really done much of that. I think there is definitely

239
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 1: a little bit more focus on him because teams come

240
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 1: in saying, we got to stop Trey Young after that,

241
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 1: we got to keep Collins off the glass and keep

242
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 1: him away from the rim. So they got to figure

243
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,160
Speaker 1: they got to figure something out. They got to figure

244
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 1: somebody else out who's gonna be able to score because

245
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,079
Speaker 1: in a half court it's tough. It's going to be

246
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,560
Speaker 1: a long bomb from Trey Young, or maybe he's going

247
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:34,559
Speaker 1: to make a play. Other than that, who's the guy?

248
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,400
Speaker 3: I mean Jabari is capable of scoring, He's capable of

249
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 3: getting yeah deep, he's capable of getting a basketball. I

250
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:41,760
Speaker 3: mean to take at least a little bit of the

251
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 3: pressure off him, but it's it's having Jabari out there

252
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 3: on the floor means defensively, you just your four AIGAANST five.

253
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 3: So but I guess that's why Travis Shchling brought him Innu.

254
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 3: It's like, Okay, we need at least a guy who's

255
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 3: capable of doing one thing well so far, he was

256
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:57,719
Speaker 3: okay the other night against the Orlando Jabari last not

257
00:10:57,840 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 3: not so much. But and Nevin Turner's well, another veteran

258
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,840
Speaker 3: brought in. At least the guy you can handle the ball,

259
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 3: take a little bit of pressure off of him. But

260
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 3: if those guys aren't playing, then then you know they're

261
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:07,120
Speaker 3: kind of useless on the team.

262
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:08,839
Speaker 5: One thing that kind of got answered last night, I

263
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 5: thought was Joel Embiid being the go to guy late

264
00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 5: in the game, because that was a question coming into

265
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 5: the season. Jimmy Butler's gone, who's going to be their

266
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 5: go to guy? Now you expect a little bit more

267
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,720
Speaker 5: from Tobias Harris as that perimeter guy to sort of

268
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 5: replaced Jimmy Butler, He's struggled from the three point line.

269
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 5: He's still struggling to find his spot. But they went

270
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 5: to Joel Embiid for the go to basket at the end,

271
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 5: he just said to John Collins, you are a fly

272
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 5: on my back. Too small, too small, and they gave

273
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:37,959
Speaker 5: it to him for five seconds left. He was the

274
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 5: guy they made the pass. That's where people are begging

275
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 5: Brett Brown to just go to Joel Embiid and Joel

276
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:46,079
Speaker 5: Embiid's I talked about Tobyasaarah, but joelan BID's gonna be

277
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:49,079
Speaker 5: the guy and there. But there needs to be a

278
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 5: little bit of space around him. But it was cool

279
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,200
Speaker 5: to see Joel Embiid. It's twenty nineteen. You're going to

280
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 5: a big man in the posts.

281
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 3: The finished games, he crushed one on Joe.

282
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 4: For one of the dunk the earth.

283
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:02,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, hey, that was credit.

284
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 4: Credit to credit to Collins for jumping. A lot of

285
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 4: guys are ducking out of the way there.

286
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:12,120
Speaker 3: And Joel Embiid. I was expecting something on Twitter this morning. Nothing.

287
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:16,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's horrible. That's a horrible pick in the hashtag

288
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:17,079
Speaker 4: NBA Twitter.

289
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:19,920
Speaker 3: But listen, he did he did post it on Instagram.

290
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,320
Speaker 3: No it doesn't matter, I know, but I'm just saying

291
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 3: he hasn't totally given up on the social game yet.

292
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 3: Nice little shimmy afterwards too. I thought, after that jam, you.

293
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,520
Speaker 1: Think he deserved attack for that, John Collins, I.

294
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:33,200
Speaker 3: Mean, that's that's a thing like you do it dunk

295
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 3: like that, And I think John Collins even sort of

296
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:36,559
Speaker 3: took that one on the chin said yeah he got me,

297
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 3: you know, like there was no no nastiness in.

298
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 2: Now they're going overboard.

299
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 4: Have some fun, man, because it's like you can block.

300
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 2: I love this one.

301
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,679
Speaker 4: You can block a guy and then you can do

302
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 4: them a tumble finger. As long as you're doing it

303
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 4: to the crowd. As long as you don't point the

304
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,839
Speaker 4: finger near the guy that you just denied, then you're fine.

305
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 4: But as as soon as you put that finger near

306
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,400
Speaker 4: the guy that you just block, Oh that's a taunting tech.

307
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:02,600
Speaker 2: That's so stupid.

308
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 4: It's like, which one is it? I mean that's so dumb.

309
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 4: But huge game from bad Yeah, thirty thirty six, the

310
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:09,559
Speaker 4: thirteen to five three steals, one block, a lot of

311
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:12,320
Speaker 4: turnovers that that hurt him in the woe boy chances there,

312
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,080
Speaker 4: But good game. I also liked you said the dunk

313
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 4: on Collins. I think he knew Trey Kirby was in

314
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 4: attendance last night because he did the old hike hike

315
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 4: through the legs pass Ben Simmons for one of the

316
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 4: best assists on the night on a very busy schedule, Trey,

317
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:29,440
Speaker 4: I mean, as a former, I don't even what you

318
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:30,320
Speaker 4: call yourself again?

319
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 2: What were you long snapper? That's the word I'm looking for.

320
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 2: What'd you think of his.

321
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:37,839
Speaker 1: Form snapping those snaps? I love it. Man. You never

322
00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 1: see a guy throw a ball from between his legs

323
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 1: except for like on a tip off. Rondo used to

324
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 1: yeah it with KG all the time. But to see

325
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 1: it in the midst of almost traveling pretty free thumbs.

326
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:49,800
Speaker 2: Up, that was a great beast.

327
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 4: Also, Mike Scott ejected for the flagrant two foul with

328
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,920
Speaker 4: the like the bump foul and they thought it was

329
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 4: excessive and he deserved a flight too and was tossed.

330
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:02,679
Speaker 4: I mean, what was everybody's opinion on that one? That

331
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:04,679
Speaker 4: seemed like a that seemed like a bit much.

332
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:08,560
Speaker 3: He got into it heavier with Philadelphia Eagles fans didn't

333
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,840
Speaker 3: need a football game, and he didn't get ejected for that.

334
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 3: Uh No, that was clearly over and over.

335
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,440
Speaker 4: Be a flagrant one, maybebe if you want, but not

336
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 4: a flager too.

337
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:22,160
Speaker 5: Yeah. I was just scared going into this game that

338
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 5: we're gonna have that same thing that we had last

339
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:27,720
Speaker 5: year with Joel Embiid, where it's a game time decision.

340
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 5: It's a game time decision, don't know if he's gonna play,

341
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:30,760
Speaker 5: don't know if he's gonna play because he had an

342
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:34,240
Speaker 5: ankle injury, missed the game prior. I want Joel Embiid

343
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,120
Speaker 5: in my life, and I think they're gonna do a

344
00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:39,600
Speaker 5: lot of the not the load managing in terms of

345
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 5: missing when we When I say load managing, I think

346
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:44,600
Speaker 5: I automatically think fifteen games. But they are going to

347
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:48,160
Speaker 5: limit Joel Embiid's games somewhat. But he came back off

348
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 5: that injured ankle and as you said, a monstrous game,

349
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 5: monstrous fourth quarter. Uh, if you're going to him, I

350
00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,680
Speaker 5: mean I I as much as I sort of don't

351
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 5: want to watch the six Ers team on a lead pass,

352
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:03,680
Speaker 5: I do want to watch a big man go at it.

353
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:07,120
Speaker 5: And that part was fun. The hike was fun. Joel

354
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 5: Embiid is fun, even though he's not doing it on

355
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:09,480
Speaker 5: social media.

356
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 4: That was That's funny you say he was a game

357
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 4: time decision because on Friday night, I'm at Ken's house,

358
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 4: stage comes over. You guys know Stege, He's suddenly like

359
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 4: all pumped up because he's like, oh, my fantasy draft

360
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 4: is tonight. Can you guys help me? He's asking Ken

361
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:26,120
Speaker 4: and I to help him out. I don't play fantasy

362
00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:27,400
Speaker 4: basketball anymore.

363
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:29,440
Speaker 5: So you know, he scheduled it for when he was

364
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 5: gonna be.

365
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, maybe it worked out. Maybe it worked out, so

366
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 4: you know, we're like, sure, yeah, it'll be fun. We

367
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 4: haven't done in a long time, so we're helping him out.

368
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 4: It was an auction draft. I've never done an auction draft,

369
00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 4: I have to admit I've always done sort of you're

370
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 4: just straight up like you know, you get your order,

371
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 4: it's a snake, and you make your picks. But this

372
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 4: is one of those ones where like you nominate a

373
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:50,600
Speaker 4: guy and you have like two hundred dollars, let's say,

374
00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 4: for your roster, and then the bids, like the bidding

375
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 4: starts happening. So obviously a long story to get to

376
00:15:57,680 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 4: the point of Joel Embiid.

377
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 2: We put the money in on EMBIID sixty.

378
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 4: Five bucks something like that, so a good chunk of

379
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 4: your uh, you know, your salary cap if you want

380
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 4: to call it that. But then we were worried because

381
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:09,920
Speaker 4: then we were like, oh god, yeah, he is embid

382
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 4: gonna play enough. And this was a perfect example. Like

383
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 4: you said, Tass, we didn't have him in the lineup.

384
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 4: You know, steche is running it because it's his team.

385
00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 4: But we're like, yeah, it looks like he's not gonna play.

386
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:18,920
Speaker 2: He's a game time decision.

387
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 4: So he leaves him out of the lineup, and then

388
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 4: of course here comes and beat and has a monster game.

389
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 4: So then we're crapping on steiche or not putting him

390
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:25,320
Speaker 4: in there.

391
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:28,560
Speaker 1: Should have messaged me, bro, I could have given you

392
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:31,040
Speaker 1: Oh yeah. I saw him walk right by me and

393
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 1: I thought, this guy is gonna have a terrible, terrible game.

394
00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,320
Speaker 1: He's barely moving, he has zero energy. And then he

395
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:39,200
Speaker 1: went out there and dominated only had to play thirty

396
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,920
Speaker 1: three minutes. Is that truly shut down the large I

397
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 1: was like, I was like, what, Oh, this guy must

398
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,640
Speaker 1: have just been out in Buckhead all night. He's barely

399
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 1: making it to the crowd. He like goes up and

400
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:50,800
Speaker 1: he puts his hands up when he gets the core

401
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 1: like I'm here, and then he was just like throwing

402
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:56,120
Speaker 1: his body around, dunking out on everybody and taunting the crowd.

403
00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 1: So yeah, maybe I didn't have the best inside info.

404
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,080
Speaker 5: No, he probably played with the Atlanta Flu. He probably

405
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:05,040
Speaker 5: just played through it because he's drawling bed. Was it

406
00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:07,400
Speaker 5: also a keeper league because that's pretty fun. You get

407
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 5: to keep your your players year to year as well,

408
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 5: you know you did? Oh No, I wasn't definite.

409
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:14,119
Speaker 4: Definitely was not.

410
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 3: I like the auction for something different though, because then

411
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:18,560
Speaker 3: if you really want that player, you buy him.

412
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,600
Speaker 4: It's honestly, it's nerve wracking because early on all the

413
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 4: big names obviously get put up on the block and

414
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 4: you're like, I don't know, do I put eighty of

415
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 4: my dollars into Kawhi Leonard or you know, like Lebron.

416
00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:31,600
Speaker 4: It's like, so we sort of we played it cool.

417
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:35,879
Speaker 4: We were playing like no, we were like, there's so many.

418
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:40,200
Speaker 5: Good guys just called this guy just called drafting fantasy cool.

419
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:42,000
Speaker 2: You should on a Friday night.

420
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 4: Friday night, you should. You should see our team though,

421
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:47,680
Speaker 4: because we just let them go crazy and all these

422
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:49,480
Speaker 4: guys ran out of money, and then we were just

423
00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:52,919
Speaker 4: snatching up like Chris Middleton for like fifteen bucks, you know,

424
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:55,439
Speaker 4: like when he should be like forty five bucks.

425
00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:56,640
Speaker 2: Oh man, we got a smart.

426
00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:59,280
Speaker 4: Team is stacked. No one cares because no one cares

427
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:01,320
Speaker 4: about your dream last night, and no one cares about

428
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 4: your friend's fantasy.

429
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 5: I will say, Lebron plays two k like he plays basketball.

430
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:11,720
Speaker 5: You you play fantasy like it's the actual NBA sixty

431
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 5: five dollars for Joel and b that's thirty two point right,

432
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 5: what's going on? Yeah?

433
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,920
Speaker 4: We got we got Lillard for for a similar price too,

434
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:23,560
Speaker 4: So I mean we're team in Lillard with him b

435
00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 4: there is our stars, and then filling up the roster

436
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,240
Speaker 4: with like Kevin Loves and Middleton's and and Bookers.

437
00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:29,399
Speaker 2: I mean we're rolling.

438
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 5: Man, stacked. Our team is stacked.

439
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:37,719
Speaker 2: Team I told you and his corner man, Oh my goodness,

440
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:39,760
Speaker 2: it's amazing. Alright, let's keep a moving here though.

441
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,360
Speaker 1: Actually I got one for you guys. I've been I've

442
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:44,200
Speaker 1: been at the Fortress now the last two night's seen

443
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:46,120
Speaker 1: a lot of dance cam. So I got a pull

444
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 1: for you. I thought it was gonna be two choices.

445
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 1: Who's better on a dance cam? A really really fat

446
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:55,239
Speaker 1: guy who can dance. That's who they had for opening night.

447
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:57,480
Speaker 1: They hired some guy from America's Got Talent and he

448
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,480
Speaker 1: killed it. The crowd was going crazy. The second choice,

449
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,639
Speaker 1: any kid, any kid who can dance good is gonna

450
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:05,920
Speaker 1: kill it, huge crowd pop. And I thought those were

451
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:09,720
Speaker 1: the two choices, but last night a third genre appeared

452
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,480
Speaker 1: on the dance camp. I couldn't believe it. Old guy

453
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: with moves. This guy was awesome. You know, he must

454
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,400
Speaker 1: have been close to his seventies, but just with very

455
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:24,600
Speaker 1: old timy but very silly looking moves. And the crowd

456
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 1: was going crazy. Clearly he was chosen the winner of

457
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 1: the dance camp. So those are my my three choices.

458
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:32,640
Speaker 1: Big boy, little boy, old boy.

459
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:35,160
Speaker 5: Taken. Can the big boy move?

460
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:38,680
Speaker 1: We're talking split like the Hawks dance team was out

461
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:41,320
Speaker 1: there and everybody's cheering, all cool, the Hawks dance team,

462
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 1: and then the big guy came in and did the

463
00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:46,040
Speaker 1: entire routine as the front of the front of the

464
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,520
Speaker 1: pyramid or whatever, and I mean he was awesome.

465
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've got at for the big guy for the

466
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:53,840
Speaker 3: I mean, because it's kind of.

467
00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 4: Spot. Doesn't that big guy.

468
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 3: No, because it's like if he's moving so well, he's

469
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 3: got to practice those moves, but he's still got the belly.

470
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:07,399
Speaker 3: So you know, when does he do it?

471
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 1: Is it just in the when he's just a natural

472
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:10,639
Speaker 1: born dancer?

473
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:13,760
Speaker 5: Give me that, then give me that, give me the

474
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,040
Speaker 5: mb D the natural born down dancer as well.

475
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 2: It's it's big boy easily.

476
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 4: Any like any wedding you've ever been to, the bigger

477
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:22,920
Speaker 4: guy that's killing it on the dance floor, he's he

478
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,600
Speaker 4: steals the show. It's hit like.

479
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,000
Speaker 2: It's it's like, uh when we see a big guy.

480
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:29,800
Speaker 4: Get in the pool and suddenly is the fastest guy

481
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:32,119
Speaker 4: in the water and I always love that too. So

482
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 4: dance floor or the water, it's the big boy. Good question, though,

483
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:35,880
Speaker 4: tough question.

484
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:38,480
Speaker 5: There were all people and kids are the same category

485
00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 5: to me?

486
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:42,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly.

487
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:43,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's fair.

488
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:46,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, I feel I feel like the big guy sort

489
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:46,960
Speaker 5: of the middle of those two.

490
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 4: I agree.

491
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:53,200
Speaker 5: There was we know the Detroit Usher. He they've elevated,

492
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:56,359
Speaker 5: they changed it. They they introduced three other guys. It

493
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,439
Speaker 5: was a choreographed dance, so he just started dancing and

494
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 5: he just basically passed the Batontas mother guy who was

495
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:04,960
Speaker 5: just there. But it looked like three rate. But they

496
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:07,240
Speaker 5: did a choreographed dance. Now the usher. Just give it

497
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,840
Speaker 5: to the usher. He's the best thought. I thought they

498
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 5: went a little too far out. Hey, you got a

499
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:13,920
Speaker 5: test things. No idea is a bad idea.

500
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:20,000
Speaker 4: Warriors won thirty four, Pelicans won twenty three. The Warriors

501
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:23,000
Speaker 4: get their first win of the season. They go small

502
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:26,400
Speaker 4: to get it done. Draymond Green starting at center. This

503
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 4: this score, that final score wasn't even nearly that close.

504
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 4: So the Warriors punked them. They were up huge in

505
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:33,639
Speaker 4: this game, and then it got a little closer in

506
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 4: the fourth quarter. Are the Warriors back? They're not dead?

507
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,000
Speaker 3: No, according to Draymond Green. Not that they still suck.

508
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:45,119
Speaker 3: But I honestly thought Draymond Green was the key last night.

509
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:47,639
Speaker 3: He came out and looked energized, and he was like,

510
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,600
Speaker 3: all right, we've been embarrassed and humiliated enough. I'm one

511
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:52,400
Speaker 3: of the leaders of this team. I'm going to show

512
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:53,560
Speaker 3: the guys what to do. I think was the very

513
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:55,280
Speaker 3: first player of the game. In fact, he got to

514
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:57,840
Speaker 3: sort of lay up there off a little dho from

515
00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,320
Speaker 3: Steph and I think Draymond just kind of was in

516
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 3: the locker room, signing, guys, let's let's get out there

517
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 3: and play Hatta and play a little bit more tougher.

518
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 3: And the result reflected that.

519
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:11,119
Speaker 5: I think we did this, and bye. By we, I

520
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:14,280
Speaker 5: mean the media in general calling out the Warriors. Draymond

521
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:17,720
Speaker 5: Green said, these guys calling calling us out for toughness,

522
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:21,600
Speaker 5: for leadership, these old players who never let anything in

523
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,520
Speaker 5: their life. I don't know who he was calling out,

524
00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:26,399
Speaker 5: but he was calling out somebody. There was there was

525
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 5: a fire within him to play in this game, and

526
00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:32,639
Speaker 5: in that locker room. Every single guy on that roster

527
00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,240
Speaker 5: was playing defense all of a sudden, And yeah, I

528
00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:37,399
Speaker 5: think moving Draymond Green to the five and saying goodbye

529
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:42,640
Speaker 5: to Marcise Chris was very important. It's almost like their

530
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:46,160
Speaker 5: death lineup, you know, just what they finished games with

531
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:48,480
Speaker 5: when they needed to, they're starting with and that's because

532
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:50,160
Speaker 5: they need to win games in the regular season. Because

533
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:53,359
Speaker 5: of their rotation and the way they moved the ball.

534
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:55,399
Speaker 5: There was some there was there was great plays I

535
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:57,520
Speaker 5: think throughout the NBA yesterday, but there were some honey

536
00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 5: passes between Steph and D'Angelo and D'Angelo back to Steph

537
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:04,160
Speaker 5: and whipping it around with their left hands. They're having

538
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:07,159
Speaker 5: fun playing basketball and they look like they have a

539
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:09,800
Speaker 5: rotation all of a sudden, and so, no, they're not dead,

540
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,600
Speaker 5: but they're going to have to. Draymond Green is going

541
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:14,120
Speaker 5: to have to play at that triple double level.

542
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:16,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's gonna have to play like this for them

543
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:19,159
Speaker 4: to be you know, a seventh or a seed. I

544
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 4: do believe that that Draymond Green has to have this

545
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:22,640
Speaker 4: impact on these type of games.

546
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:26,120
Speaker 5: He's Yeah, they only have two great players, and they

547
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:29,159
Speaker 5: both have to be great because the rest. D'Angelo Russell

548
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 5: is there as well. He's easy to forget, but sometimes

549
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:33,560
Speaker 5: that offense can get going. But yeah, Draymond Green is

550
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:37,080
Speaker 5: He's really really important on the defensive end in sixteen, seventeen,

551
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 5: and ten a monster line for him. Yeah, you're right,

552
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:42,679
Speaker 5: it's totally needed.

553
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:46,040
Speaker 1: Well, a good game to get well against the last

554
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,560
Speaker 1: year's Lakers. You know, no dru Holiday for the Pelicans,

555
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:50,399
Speaker 1: no Derek Favors for the Pelicans. This is the kind

556
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 1: of game that if you've had a bad start to

557
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:55,000
Speaker 1: your season, you're happy to see those two guys sitting

558
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:58,200
Speaker 1: out on on the schedule. So you know, you can

559
00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,520
Speaker 1: play Draymond Green at center if he's going to be

560
00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:02,680
Speaker 1: going up against Julia Local Corp for twelve minutes. You know,

561
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:05,159
Speaker 1: I don't think it's a coincidence that Draymond Green went

562
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:06,960
Speaker 1: for a triple double for the first time this season

563
00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 1: when he's playing as the center. So perhaps he's got

564
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:13,680
Speaker 1: to play five almost exclusively until at least Willie colly

565
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:16,840
Speaker 1: Stein comes back. Mark Chris, he ain't doing it. Draymond

566
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 1: is their best rim defender. He's closer to the rim now,

567
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:21,840
Speaker 1: and he's also able to make more plays. It just

568
00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:25,800
Speaker 1: looked right and not terribly surprising, you know, off to

569
00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 1: a terrible start, but they're happy to get happy.

570
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:32,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, and it's easy to just say, hey, the Pelicans

571
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:35,240
Speaker 5: are zero to four and they stink and we shouldn't

572
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:37,840
Speaker 5: watch them. And Drew Holliday was out, who's likely their

573
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:40,159
Speaker 5: best player. He was also at the previous game when

574
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:43,640
Speaker 5: they gave the Rockets a run. But Derek favors, Yeah,

575
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:45,920
Speaker 5: is there a big guy who should be holding down

576
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:49,360
Speaker 5: the fort And that's why the Warriors had nineteen offensive rebounds.

577
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 5: And also a reason why that nineteen offensive rebounds was

578
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:54,400
Speaker 5: because they looked at their locker room and said, this

579
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:57,960
Speaker 5: is this is dirty. They're talking about us everywhere, they're

580
00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 5: making fun of us. It is we talked about yesterday,

581
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,200
Speaker 5: everybody getting their licks off. They're getting their shots off

582
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,120
Speaker 5: on the Warriors. It's a bit of a joke as

583
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:11,720
Speaker 5: well that people think, now that they're down, let's kick them.

584
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:14,639
Speaker 5: When these guys ran the show. These guys ran the

585
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,640
Speaker 5: show for half a decade in the NBA. It's just funny.

586
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:21,240
Speaker 5: It's just funny to be that petty. There's lots of petty.

587
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:24,800
Speaker 4: How quickly people will turn on you, for sure. Curry

588
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:27,720
Speaker 4: four threes made in that one, D'Angel Russell three threes made,

589
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 4: Jordan Poole hit three, and then Damian Lee off the

590
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:32,480
Speaker 4: bench four for six from down, so they had a

591
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,760
Speaker 4: good shooting game. Finally from distance, fourteen for thirty five.

592
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:38,960
Speaker 4: That's forty percent, so that helped in the win as well.

593
00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 4: Thunder Rockets guys, Chris Paul returns to Houston. We got

594
00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 4: we got Westbrook playing his old team, close game Rockets

595
00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:50,600
Speaker 4: hold on one sixteen one twelve. Was anyone surprised by,

596
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,680
Speaker 4: you know, Chris Paul getting the tribute video during the

597
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:56,200
Speaker 4: first time out and you got a pretty good response

598
00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:59,760
Speaker 4: from the Houston faithful. Faithful there they showered him with

599
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 4: of a standing ovis no shock.

600
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:05,840
Speaker 3: Well, they sort of had a bit of a dig

601
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:07,920
Speaker 3: at him though on the on the jumbo trun later

602
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 3: on when they had a match up featuring him versus

603
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 3: Russell Westbrook, and Russell Westbrook's numbers were clearly better than

604
00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:16,480
Speaker 3: Chris Paul's. So a little bit of a double edged

605
00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:19,560
Speaker 3: sword there from the Ruckers. But honestly, like the Thunder

606
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,080
Speaker 3: came out like focused in this game, and it looked

607
00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:24,520
Speaker 3: like early on, I thought, wow, this is the game

608
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:26,880
Speaker 3: that Chris Paul really wants to to sort of stick

609
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:29,280
Speaker 3: it to his former team. But then Houston came back.

610
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 3: But this is oh man, the second half of this

611
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:35,239
Speaker 3: is a tough watch. It's just I just don't enjoy watchings.

612
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,440
Speaker 3: I mean, it's just a tough, tough team to watch.

613
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:44,240
Speaker 3: Right now. I thought Westbrook was sort of Oklahoma City

614
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:45,760
Speaker 3: Westbrook last night. You know, he sort of got the

615
00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:47,480
Speaker 3: ball and just made a couple of those decisions where

616
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,440
Speaker 3: he just goes charging into the paint. He found some

617
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:52,200
Speaker 3: shooters in the corner and it looked like, you know,

618
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:54,119
Speaker 3: he wanted to sort of send a message almost to

619
00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:55,520
Speaker 3: his old team as well, that he wasn't going to

620
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:57,320
Speaker 3: lose to them, particularly not in Houston.

621
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:04,800
Speaker 1: Absolutely, yeah, that was great. Westbrook look incredible. He was

622
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,720
Speaker 1: cutting back door, he was hitting the offensive glass, he

623
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,040
Speaker 1: was pushing the pace. Like you said, it looked like

624
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:13,360
Speaker 1: what the the Rockets were envisioning when they got Westbrook,

625
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:15,000
Speaker 1: somebody that can bring a little bit of chaos to

626
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:16,480
Speaker 1: their team. They're not just the team that's going to

627
00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:18,560
Speaker 1: bring it up. Harden's gonna dribble through his legs for

628
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:20,520
Speaker 1: twenty seconds and then either get a shot at the

629
00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:23,480
Speaker 1: rim and alleyup or a three pointer. Westbrook gives them

630
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:26,560
Speaker 1: something different. The pace is a little faster and just

631
00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 1: more stuff can happen when he's out there on the court.

632
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:32,000
Speaker 1: And you know, it looked like it worked to me.

633
00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 1: I know, Lee, you clearly hate this team, but you

634
00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:36,600
Speaker 1: gotta admit they looked all right last night.

635
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:39,919
Speaker 3: Well, like I said, I didn't enjoy watching them though.

636
00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:40,760
Speaker 3: I mean, listen, they.

637
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,359
Speaker 4: Free throws harder, went twenty one for twenty two at

638
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:45,200
Speaker 4: the free throw line. This doesn't make any sense.

639
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:47,639
Speaker 3: It just it just feels to me that it is

640
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,200
Speaker 3: still it's like, Okay, it's it's hard in a Westbrook

641
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,439
Speaker 3: hard and a Westbrook the ball doesn't flow as much

642
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:54,920
Speaker 3: as I mean. James Harden right now, he's six for

643
00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:57,400
Speaker 3: forty or something like that from three.

644
00:27:57,560 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 1: Yeah on the.

645
00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:01,160
Speaker 5: Season, but yeah, and they've gotten off to a better

646
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 5: start than last year, which is a wild that they

647
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:05,919
Speaker 5: started one to five last year. Now they're two and one.

648
00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,679
Speaker 5: I think you're getting everything you wanted from Russell Westbrook,

649
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,480
Speaker 5: not only on the floor but off the floor. A

650
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,600
Speaker 5: lot of people wondered, is James Harden a leader verbally

651
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:16,520
Speaker 5: in the locker room? And that's where Chris Paul was

652
00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:20,480
Speaker 5: supposed to be his perfect yang to his ying right,

653
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:22,880
Speaker 5: that he would be the vocal guy. And Russell Westbrook

654
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:25,000
Speaker 5: is in the locker room saying, my guys, I got

655
00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,160
Speaker 5: to put my guys on my back, and he's doing

656
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:29,120
Speaker 5: the talking. And I think that's what James Harden likes.

657
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,440
Speaker 5: Throughout the past few years, we've heard a lot of

658
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:37,400
Speaker 5: let's say Kevin McHale, his previous coach, say James Harden

659
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 5: isn't so much of a vocal leader, a guy that

660
00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 5: would put players on his back, you know, emotionally and

661
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:45,560
Speaker 5: I think Russell Westbrook has filled that role that Chris

662
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,760
Speaker 5: Paul sort of left a void for. And yes, just

663
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 5: being bonkers on the floor, he's needed. This team was

664
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:55,760
Speaker 5: definitely and is still to some extent. You know, one

665
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:59,240
Speaker 5: note it's hard and dribble, dribble, dribble, But now there's

666
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:03,200
Speaker 5: a couple notes it's it's Russell Westbrook. But yeah, I

667
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:07,680
Speaker 5: understand why Lee's not happy watching this team. It's you know,

668
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:09,960
Speaker 5: when we watch this much basketball, it's nice, it's not

669
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:12,720
Speaker 5: it's not fun to see io ball. I understand that

670
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 5: it's we talked about Kyrie Irving in Brooklyn, But I

671
00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 5: think as far as this regular season goes, it doesn't

672
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 5: really matter for this team if they get wins and

673
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 5: Russell Westbrook is not making James Harden do what he

674
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:28,200
Speaker 5: had to do last year, and that's score thirty six

675
00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:30,160
Speaker 5: points a game when they got down and they were

676
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:33,280
Speaker 5: one in five because of the whole scenario around Carmelo

677
00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:36,400
Speaker 5: Anthony and Spitgate and all that, that's all that's all

678
00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 5: that matters. The energy is all that matters to get

679
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,440
Speaker 5: them to the postseason and then we'll see what James

680
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:43,200
Speaker 5: can do in a wide open West.

681
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:45,440
Speaker 4: All right, so Chris Paul returns to Houston, we can

682
00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:47,720
Speaker 4: scratch that one off the list.

683
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:51,320
Speaker 5: And he's not He's not doing himself for the Pelicans

684
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:54,080
Speaker 5: any favor or the Pelicans. I keep calling thunder any

685
00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:56,680
Speaker 5: like three times. Yeah, I've got this. I do it

686
00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:00,280
Speaker 5: every moment of my life. I'm a visual person. I

687
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,240
Speaker 5: see blue, I see Oklahoma City blue, and I see Pelicans.

688
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 5: Isn't really blue, but it's not at all. It's a

689
00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:09,800
Speaker 5: teely anyway. Anyways, Chris Paul's not doing anything for his

690
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,680
Speaker 5: trade value either. He's he's fine, He's fine, but he's

691
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,160
Speaker 5: he's it's a lot, it's a lot of bucks on

692
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:17,080
Speaker 5: that contract, but he doesn't care.

693
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:19,760
Speaker 3: Man, he changed the rules so we could get paid.

694
00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:20,960
Speaker 3: Someone's gonna pay.

695
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:23,520
Speaker 5: He wants to play for a winner, though I assume.

696
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:24,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean you assume.

697
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 5: But they're one in three and Shake Gill just Alexander's

698
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:30,480
Speaker 5: fun to watch it. No, he is night in and

699
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:32,000
Speaker 5: night out. He's averaging over twenty.

700
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 4: What reunion game are you most excited for next? Now

701
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:37,240
Speaker 4: that you know Chris Paul again has returned to Houston.

702
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:39,240
Speaker 4: That one that one's done? Is there one that's coming

703
00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 4: up here that you're most excited about.

704
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,680
Speaker 3: Well, I think the big one is Kauwhi back in Toronto,

705
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:47,440
Speaker 3: I think clearly because he left the team, of course,

706
00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:48,920
Speaker 3: but he was only there for a year and they

707
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:51,320
Speaker 3: won the championships, so there's not going to be any

708
00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:53,400
Speaker 3: booing or anything like that. Fans are gonna want to

709
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 3: embrace him, but fans are also going to want to say, hey,

710
00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:58,000
Speaker 3: we are still a good team without you, and they're

711
00:30:58,000 --> 00:30:59,360
Speaker 3: gonna go out there and want to beat him. They're

712
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:01,840
Speaker 3: not gonna be like, hey, Kawhi, you are our whole team,

713
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 3: you know what I mean. So there's gonna be respect,

714
00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:06,000
Speaker 3: there's gonna be a tribute video. The one question is though,

715
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:09,040
Speaker 3: when the Clippers go to Toronto, that's the fourth game

716
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:10,280
Speaker 3: of a six game road.

717
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:11,520
Speaker 4: Trip, Yeah, he won't play.

718
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:13,880
Speaker 3: We know, we know he likes the low manager and

719
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:16,120
Speaker 3: he doesn't care at all about the opponent. What are

720
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:17,800
Speaker 3: the chances that he just says, you know what, that's

721
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:18,840
Speaker 3: the game I'm sitting now.

722
00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:22,360
Speaker 4: To Hi, I think very high because you're right, he

723
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:24,640
Speaker 4: doesn't carries like I don't care, it's just another game.

724
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 4: If I'm you know, scheduled to sit then I'll sit,

725
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:29,160
Speaker 4: they can do whatever they want. I'll stand up and

726
00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 4: wave my hand. We'll even do that. I'm not sure.

727
00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:33,520
Speaker 4: I'm not excited about that one really at all. That

728
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:35,440
Speaker 4: one's gonna be, like you said, it's gonna be two kinds,

729
00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:38,760
Speaker 4: a bunch of Canadians being polite. I'm most excited for

730
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:43,040
Speaker 4: November twenty seventh, when there's two crazy returns, Kyrie irving

731
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,720
Speaker 4: back to Boston, okay, and then Anthony Davis returning to

732
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 4: New Orleans same night. We have both of these games.

733
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:52,120
Speaker 4: Those are gonna be a little more, a little more nasty.

734
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:54,640
Speaker 4: Anthony Davis one, that'll be. You know, he's one of

735
00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:57,680
Speaker 4: the maybe their best player in franchise history, so I'll be.

736
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,360
Speaker 4: But then of course says he wants out and get

737
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:02,200
Speaker 4: me out of here, and that happens that whole ordeal.

738
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 5: He was booed as a member of the team, so

739
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:06,800
Speaker 5: it should get it should be as player.

740
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:08,960
Speaker 4: That's true, So they both should be. Those fans are

741
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 4: not going to be kind, I would say.

742
00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:14,240
Speaker 5: And and same goes for Jimmy Butler going back to Philadelphia.

743
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:18,560
Speaker 5: Nobody's nice in Philadelphia and they shouldn't be quote unquote

744
00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:20,479
Speaker 5: mad at him. They went to a second round run

745
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:22,600
Speaker 5: last year, could have gone to the Conference finals, could

746
00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:25,680
Speaker 5: have gone to the NBA Finals. But they're if they're

747
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:27,920
Speaker 5: the Sixers fans, they'll give it to him. I don't

748
00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:30,160
Speaker 5: want any respect. I don't want Kawi resp What's Qauhi

749
00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 5: gonna do when he goes to the throne. Nothing, He's

750
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:33,720
Speaker 5: not gonna say a peep. Yeah, Jimmy Butler is going

751
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:36,280
Speaker 5: to be barking and yelling, and I'm looking forward to that.

752
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:39,600
Speaker 1: The Rock looking forward to Chris STAPs going back to

753
00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 1: New York did not end well there. You know, he

754
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,120
Speaker 1: didn't miss the last season he would have played as

755
00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:47,080
Speaker 1: the Knicks, and even during that season there was drama. Uh,

756
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:51,200
Speaker 1: he was Draft Knight. Then he was beloved as the

757
00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:53,920
Speaker 1: next best Nick and now they hate him. So when

758
00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:55,720
Speaker 1: he comes back with the Mavericks should be fun.

759
00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:58,880
Speaker 5: Who's He's had a back and forth with RJ. Barrett

760
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:01,920
Speaker 5: to some degree about R. G. Barrett saying I'm gonna

761
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:04,880
Speaker 5: dunk on him. That's been that's been very kind.

762
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:06,760
Speaker 3: What he does, he sort of invited it.

763
00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:09,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, come and try it.

764
00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:09,360
Speaker 3: Yeah.

765
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:12,360
Speaker 4: The flip side of last night's game that we were

766
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:15,360
Speaker 4: talking about to Westbrook returns to OKC on January ninth,

767
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:18,000
Speaker 4: and Royce Young wrote this, the Thunder have never done

768
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:20,800
Speaker 4: a tribute video for a player, claiming it's like a

769
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:24,680
Speaker 4: policy of sorts. But Royce thinks, you know that's going

770
00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:26,240
Speaker 4: to change for Westbrook's returns.

771
00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:27,000
Speaker 2: Interesting.

772
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:32,080
Speaker 3: Kd's was a different situation too, like he sort of

773
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 3: lefty for nothing, whereas Westbrook was kind of like, all right,

774
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 3: we'll let you go now. Yeah.

775
00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:38,240
Speaker 2: Well and again it was like.

776
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:41,400
Speaker 1: You're right, Kevin Durant left you know, in pre agency

777
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:44,080
Speaker 1: when he's allowed to rus Westbrook was under contract and

778
00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:45,800
Speaker 1: asked out. I understand it is different.

779
00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 4: I I.

780
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:51,200
Speaker 3: The fans, oh Kevin Durant, you know, okay, see, I

781
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:53,560
Speaker 3: think he gave them a great rate. I just, uh,

782
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:57,480
Speaker 3: one thing about Westbrook Tree, what's the here that he's

783
00:33:57,480 --> 00:33:58,480
Speaker 3: got role in these days?

784
00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:00,920
Speaker 5: It's not a lot, not a enough talk about it.

785
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:05,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's yeah, you know, he looks like there's that character.

786
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:07,760
Speaker 1: I feel it's in Guardians at the Galaxy and she's

787
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:11,800
Speaker 1: like an empathetic she's an of some sorts. I don't know,

788
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:13,800
Speaker 1: I don't remember her name, but she's got the antenna

789
00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:16,600
Speaker 1: and that's exactly what the danglers in the front roomind Yeah,

790
00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:19,640
Speaker 1: it looks cool when he's wearing a stocks hat. I

791
00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 1: think to me, that's the entire the entire point of

792
00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:23,759
Speaker 1: it is that when he pulls on a tuke, he's

793
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:25,080
Speaker 1: just got him hanging down a little bit and it

794
00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:28,000
Speaker 1: looks cool. Maybe last night when he had the cutoffs on,

795
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:30,120
Speaker 1: the leather pants, the leather shoes.

796
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:32,080
Speaker 3: Styling, what's a cool looking dude?

797
00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:34,239
Speaker 5: Is he going to pull them up at some point?

798
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:38,680
Speaker 5: Those those like he's the green guy in Flintstones, what's

799
00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:41,800
Speaker 5: his name, the Great Gazoo, the Great Gazoo. Yeah, I

800
00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:43,840
Speaker 5: guess you pull him up, put him straight up. I

801
00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:47,640
Speaker 5: feel maybe that's playoff for us sticking up well.

802
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:50,520
Speaker 4: Well, speaking of fashion, let's get into the updown report here,

803
00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:53,880
Speaker 4: because last night Mitchell Robinson, he showed up to his

804
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:58,600
Speaker 4: game against the Bulls rocking his very own number twenty

805
00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:02,400
Speaker 4: three New York Knicks jure. Yes, the sophomore center opted

806
00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:04,800
Speaker 4: to wear his own threads instead of a throwback or

807
00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:07,839
Speaker 4: any sort of fashion statement. Very bold move, I believe,

808
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:10,640
Speaker 4: very rare. Guys, Are you up or down on wearing

809
00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:13,839
Speaker 4: your own jersey to the to the tunnel before the game.

810
00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:17,439
Speaker 3: I'm definitely up because it's never been done before, It's

811
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:22,120
Speaker 3: been done in the w Yes, okay, well I missed

812
00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:24,480
Speaker 3: Malik Monk. I didn't say that, but I thought it

813
00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:25,719
Speaker 3: was a cool look. It is like, hey, you want

814
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:27,960
Speaker 3: and it's a cool number, it's a cool jersey. He

815
00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:29,200
Speaker 3: was looking great when he came in.

816
00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:29,680
Speaker 5: Why not.

817
00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:34,520
Speaker 3: You? Yeah? Yeah him? Okay, Yeah, I'm up on it.

818
00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:37,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's twenty nineteen. I'm up on this too, because

819
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:40,320
Speaker 1: if you're not telling people how awesome you are, nobody is.

820
00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:43,040
Speaker 1: It's just like being on Twitter. Wearing your own jersey

821
00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:44,640
Speaker 1: to a game is like being on Twitter. You have

822
00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:46,920
Speaker 1: to say how great you are. That's uh So that's

823
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:48,760
Speaker 1: why I'm up on it because I like to retweet

824
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:49,160
Speaker 1: our stuff.

825
00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:53,719
Speaker 5: And you did you draft league fits in our show?

826
00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:54,759
Speaker 4: I did?

827
00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:55,319
Speaker 1: I did?

828
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:57,840
Speaker 4: Yep. I took him the number one pick in the

829
00:35:57,880 --> 00:35:58,960
Speaker 4: wild card category.

830
00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:02,080
Speaker 5: Why the wild pick? Are you happy with your pick?

831
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:05,840
Speaker 4: Go? They're already making news. Could have been newsbreakers for

832
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:09,040
Speaker 4: all for crying out loud here. Yeah, pumped with my league.

833
00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:10,759
Speaker 5: Jersey looks really small on him.

834
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:12,279
Speaker 4: He's got a sweater on, doesn't he.

835
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 3: Yeah?

836
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:16,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's bulked. Okay, okay, are you up or down?

837
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:17,680
Speaker 5: It almost looks like a kid jersey.

838
00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:17,840
Speaker 1: I was.

839
00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:20,480
Speaker 5: I was just concerned. What's going on? Is is he

840
00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:23,080
Speaker 5: not getting an authentic jersey? It almost looks like a

841
00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 5: replica for for for a brief moment.

842
00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:28,239
Speaker 3: Maybe maybe he put Tribuani on the back because that's

843
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:31,000
Speaker 3: the that's the jersey that Joey Tribani wore on Friends

844
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:32,920
Speaker 3: that time. So maybe it was a throwback to that.

845
00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:37,240
Speaker 2: Maybe you're not wrong, it wasn't twenty three.

846
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:43,200
Speaker 1: PlayStation. Oh my goodness.

847
00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:46,759
Speaker 5: Listen, I understand he wants to get to work. I

848
00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:49,560
Speaker 5: think he's been thinking about his job all day long,

849
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:52,080
Speaker 5: and he's like, I'm just not I'm ready. I'm ready

850
00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:54,759
Speaker 5: to play. So you know, he's a one track mine.

851
00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:57,960
Speaker 4: I like that, Could you legally play with a sweatshirt

852
00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:04,440
Speaker 4: underneath your jersey? That's gotta be illegal, Like without the

853
00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:05,200
Speaker 4: hoodie part.

854
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:07,320
Speaker 2: You think it's illegal. Yeah, it's got to be illegal.

855
00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:10,120
Speaker 1: It's fake it. You get like, get like the Anthony

856
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:14,680
Speaker 1: Davis undershirt. Get some arm sleeves. Yeah, there's nothing, there's

857
00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:16,960
Speaker 1: nothing for the head part, but you're getting close to

858
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:18,240
Speaker 1: a body sleeve hoodie.

859
00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:21,160
Speaker 4: Okay, if you're pulling off, I'm up on this as well.

860
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,800
Speaker 4: I can't believe someone like Kyrie hasn't done this already.

861
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:26,920
Speaker 4: It's maybe it's a little surprising that it's a Malik

862
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:29,120
Speaker 4: Monk and Mitchell Robinson being the guys to do it,

863
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:31,400
Speaker 4: but I'm up on it.

864
00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:32,879
Speaker 2: I think we're gonna see more of it too. It's

865
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:33,759
Speaker 2: it's very funny, all right.

866
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:37,680
Speaker 4: Next one on Monday, and it's Canter seemingly revealed the

867
00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:41,120
Speaker 4: Boston Celtics new alternate jerseys in a post to his

868
00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:45,320
Speaker 4: Instagram story. Now Twitter went nuts. Canter deleted the post,

869
00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:49,400
Speaker 4: but not before screenshots were obviously snapped and those got shared.

870
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:54,799
Speaker 4: The jerseys appear to be some strange teal color, could

871
00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:56,600
Speaker 4: be a lighting, could be a lighting. But it has

872
00:37:56,680 --> 00:38:01,279
Speaker 4: this Gaelic looking Celtic sort of font. As Celtics blog

873
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:05,759
Speaker 4: put it, screams more Renaissance fair. Anyway, you guys have

874
00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:07,560
Speaker 4: seen the photos. I'm sure everyone listening has seeing them.

875
00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:09,880
Speaker 4: By now are you up or down on these reportedly

876
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:12,160
Speaker 4: new Celtics alternate jerseys.

877
00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:15,839
Speaker 1: I'm waiting to see the official life.

878
00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:18,880
Speaker 4: Oh why what do you need?

879
00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:21,520
Speaker 1: My answer right now is down.

880
00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:21,919
Speaker 2: Yeah.

881
00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:24,800
Speaker 1: My answer right now is down because it looks ridiculous.

882
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:27,480
Speaker 1: That being said, I am waiting to see what actual

883
00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:29,880
Speaker 1: color this thing is because it feels like, is this

884
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:32,399
Speaker 1: the black and blue dress or the yellow and gold

885
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:34,880
Speaker 1: dress is I don't think these are the right colors.

886
00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:37,000
Speaker 1: That being said, I think the right colors are gonna

887
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,440
Speaker 1: be kelly green and gold. The Celtics have had that

888
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:42,120
Speaker 1: kind of look for a few different alternate uniforms over

889
00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:43,960
Speaker 1: the years, and I always think that looks terrible. Yeah,

890
00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:47,319
Speaker 1: they should be either green and white or white and green.

891
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:48,560
Speaker 1: I don't like when they throw black in there. I

892
00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:50,440
Speaker 1: don't like when they throw gold in there. I'm a

893
00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:51,760
Speaker 1: traditionalist when it comes.

894
00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:59,080
Speaker 5: To the Celtish. Tommy, give me some sariffs on mafon.

895
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:04,719
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go down for now with the possibility

896
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:06,320
Speaker 1: to go up, but I'm not feeling like I'll be

897
00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:07,240
Speaker 1: flipping those fingers.

898
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:10,120
Speaker 3: It's the tea in Boston that's really confusing.

899
00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:11,319
Speaker 2: That Garlick tea.

900
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:14,040
Speaker 3: Yeah that that that that just looks weird.

901
00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:18,120
Speaker 2: It looks like a sort of sort of yeah yeah boscod.

902
00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:23,120
Speaker 3: But yeah, no, it's hard to go up on these.

903
00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:26,560
Speaker 3: They look ugly. The fund the funt is ugly, and

904
00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:29,520
Speaker 3: I wonder if Enna's just someone said he just just

905
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:31,440
Speaker 3: you know, put this in your stories into later.

906
00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:33,440
Speaker 2: No, no way, no way.

907
00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:36,480
Speaker 4: Enna's Canter does seem like this type of guy that's like, oh,

908
00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:38,759
Speaker 4: sort of seems like you a little bit lee, He's like, oh,

909
00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:41,480
Speaker 4: cool new Jerseys. Let me just blast these out before

910
00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 4: like checking with anyone whether or not he should legally

911
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:47,800
Speaker 4: be doing that, because no, I'm serious.

912
00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:49,400
Speaker 5: They shouldn't have put him in that. They shouldn't have

913
00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,880
Speaker 5: put him in a locker if they weren't ready to

914
00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:52,200
Speaker 5: get it.

915
00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:53,520
Speaker 1: You're getting grammed.

916
00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:56,359
Speaker 4: Yeah, we're well, where were they? We know they were

917
00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:58,040
Speaker 4: actually in the locker. This seemed like they could have

918
00:39:58,080 --> 00:39:59,960
Speaker 4: been somewhere in the back and he just saw them all.

919
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:02,439
Speaker 4: He was going to, like the stretching tables. Oh cool,

920
00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:04,000
Speaker 4: my jersey, New Jersey, let's put that up.

921
00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:05,720
Speaker 5: That's that's a good point. I just see it hanging.

922
00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:08,920
Speaker 5: I had the pleasure of watching this come across my

923
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:11,920
Speaker 5: feed live right right as it happened, and I was

924
00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:15,239
Speaker 5: disgusted when I when I saw this thing the first

925
00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:19,040
Speaker 5: the first picture of the front is a different color

926
00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:21,480
Speaker 5: than the second picture of the back. Yeah, it's this

927
00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:25,239
Speaker 5: is Yeah, the second one I think is more the

928
00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:27,799
Speaker 5: color the green and gold, so it might look better,

929
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:32,480
Speaker 5: but either either one is not pretty. But uh yeah,

930
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:35,560
Speaker 5: you're right. It's the T the TC combo there on

931
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:38,840
Speaker 5: that tea. It's like that old Twins logo looks like

932
00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:44,560
Speaker 5: it looks like both ug alright, I've done well.

933
00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:47,399
Speaker 2: The one more thing about this on Big Time down

934
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:48,440
Speaker 2: if this is what they look like?

935
00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:50,680
Speaker 4: Celtics blog though, they said, you know, because a lot

936
00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:53,160
Speaker 4: of talk has been about the color and yeah this

937
00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:57,160
Speaker 4: this weird Gaelic font. But Celtic's blog said they haven't

938
00:40:57,239 --> 00:41:00,480
Speaker 4: changed the font for Cantor's name like the I did

939
00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:02,560
Speaker 4: for everything else either. So the back of the jersey

940
00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:05,879
Speaker 4: is awkwardly mismatched. If this is the thing, like why

941
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:08,399
Speaker 4: are the numbers outlined? But they're but not the name.

942
00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:11,080
Speaker 4: And it's a good point too, it's it looks like

943
00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:14,080
Speaker 4: half ass done. I wonder because of this backlash of

944
00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:16,399
Speaker 4: the Celtic or Nike or whoever, it's just like nope,

945
00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:18,400
Speaker 4: get rid of them, screw it or not.

946
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, so I think this is girl and marketing. Ooh,

947
00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:24,440
Speaker 5: I just Canter threw it out there to sell some

948
00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:26,440
Speaker 5: more jerseys, like the Celtics need more jerseys.

949
00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:29,600
Speaker 4: So yeah, okay, final one here the Athletics. Richard ditsch

950
00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:33,279
Speaker 4: let off his must read Media Circus column yesterday by

951
00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:35,759
Speaker 4: making a strong case for T and T's Inside the

952
00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:39,560
Speaker 4: NBA to be enshrined in the Naysmith Memorial Basketball Hall

953
00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:42,400
Speaker 4: of Fame. The studio show is celebrating its thirtieth anniversary

954
00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:45,640
Speaker 4: on the air, and Ditsche argues it has been as

955
00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:48,000
Speaker 4: significant to the growth of the NBA as much as

956
00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:49,680
Speaker 4: any member of the Hall of Fame who has been

957
00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:53,080
Speaker 4: inducted under the contributor category over the last thirty years,

958
00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:56,759
Speaker 4: perhaps short of David stern Uh, the longtime commissioner. I

959
00:41:56,800 --> 00:41:58,200
Speaker 4: thought this was a fun one. Are you guys up

960
00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:00,799
Speaker 4: or down on the idea of inducting Inside the NBA

961
00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:02,520
Speaker 4: into the Basketball Hall of Fame?

962
00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:03,839
Speaker 5: I'm up.

963
00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:06,360
Speaker 3: I think so. I think it has had that impact

964
00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:09,080
Speaker 3: on basketball because it's the one show that has been

965
00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:11,880
Speaker 3: constant for so long that people still talk about and

966
00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:15,040
Speaker 3: people still refer to things that happen on it, and

967
00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:17,080
Speaker 3: it has grown with the game, and you know, adding

968
00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:19,040
Speaker 3: Shak and Canny and Charles and all those guys as

969
00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:22,600
Speaker 3: they've come along, has kept it relevant and kept it

970
00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:25,520
Speaker 3: fun and exciting. So I'm not sure how it would

971
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,880
Speaker 3: work exactly, you know, I guess they just nominated and.

972
00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:31,200
Speaker 4: Teams before.

973
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:33,799
Speaker 3: I mean, it's that much different than it, but being

974
00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:37,200
Speaker 3: conducted not really, And it feels like it will be

975
00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:40,239
Speaker 3: here for you know, we'll be here around here for

976
00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:41,960
Speaker 3: at least another ten years, or as long as Ernie

977
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:43,960
Speaker 3: wants to keep hosting it over. Think that'll be the key.

978
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:46,640
Speaker 3: If Ernie decides, when he decides he's had enough, will

979
00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:48,960
Speaker 3: it still have the legs when someone else takes over.

980
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:51,000
Speaker 3: That that's going to be a big, a big moment

981
00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:53,080
Speaker 3: for the Inside crew. But yes, I'm put it in.

982
00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:57,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm up as well. And there is the contributor

983
00:42:57,440 --> 00:42:58,800
Speaker 1: is a good way for them to go in. I

984
00:42:59,280 --> 00:43:02,759
Speaker 1: believe that's the that guys like our coworker David Aldridge

985
00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:05,640
Speaker 1: or Mark Stein at that tiny mom and pop operation

986
00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:08,000
Speaker 1: the New York Times. That guy also as a Hall

987
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:09,600
Speaker 1: of Famer. So there are ways to do it. They

988
00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:11,719
Speaker 1: have grown the game, they're still fun to watch.

989
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:15,560
Speaker 5: Put them in. I think we need, like what Zach

990
00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:18,080
Speaker 5: Low has been preaching for a while, this sort of

991
00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:21,880
Speaker 5: you know, miscellaneous wing or whatever he's called it, just

992
00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:26,279
Speaker 5: this random wing. I think that's where something like this

993
00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:29,520
Speaker 5: would be perfect. The only part that I don't like

994
00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:31,680
Speaker 5: about it, of course, it's it should be a luck

995
00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:33,880
Speaker 5: to get in, is that I don't think a second

996
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:36,360
Speaker 5: show will ever get in if these guys get in,

997
00:43:37,239 --> 00:43:40,600
Speaker 5: and rightfully so. But hey, we've been doing a show

998
00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:43,960
Speaker 5: for a while. Six seasons. Can't put us in, guess not.

999
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:47,320
Speaker 5: I just want to have the possibility of us getting

1000
00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:48,080
Speaker 5: in there one day.

1001
00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:49,959
Speaker 4: Well, if they get in, I think it does maybe

1002
00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:53,319
Speaker 4: help our chances death forty years from now. I mean,

1003
00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:55,359
Speaker 4: if you could look back and say, wow, look at

1004
00:43:55,360 --> 00:44:00,680
Speaker 4: all the podcasts these guys did for five decades, then

1005
00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:02,600
Speaker 4: maybe there's a small small chance. I think if you

1006
00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:04,040
Speaker 4: put them in, though, you got to make a case

1007
00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:07,080
Speaker 4: for a moderate shots inside stuff that had quite the

1008
00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:10,040
Speaker 4: impact on basketball fans for a good chunk of time.

1009
00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:12,840
Speaker 4: I'm not I'm I'm half joking, but there is some

1010
00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:13,400
Speaker 4: truth to that.

1011
00:44:14,239 --> 00:44:16,680
Speaker 1: Put in the vhs of Dazzling Dunksan.

1012
00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:21,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, I look, I'm up on this. I think it's

1013
00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:25,440
Speaker 4: definitely deserved. But I saw in the comments the Athletic

1014
00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:27,520
Speaker 4: have great comments. By the way, the readers, they're smart

1015
00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:30,439
Speaker 4: and Thomas c He said, while I support, I would

1016
00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:33,480
Speaker 4: support the show's induction, the one that, without a doubt

1017
00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:36,759
Speaker 4: deserves the lion's share of credit is Ernie Johnson. Kenny

1018
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:39,920
Speaker 4: and Shack are great, but ultimately not irreplaceable. Chuck less so,

1019
00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:42,800
Speaker 4: but the show will likely continue past his requirement Without

1020
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:44,920
Speaker 4: EJ though, and you were talking about this inside the

1021
00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:47,160
Speaker 4: NBA couldn't exist. He brings up the best and the

1022
00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:49,200
Speaker 4: rest of the panel and carries the show forward every week.

1023
00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:52,640
Speaker 4: I can't help but wonder if his induction alone may

1024
00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:56,680
Speaker 4: be more appropriate, which I think is an interesting point.

1025
00:44:56,840 --> 00:45:00,319
Speaker 4: You know, like outside of Kenny, Charles and the Shack

1026
00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:01,960
Speaker 4: are in the Hall of Fame from what they did,

1027
00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:05,040
Speaker 4: you know, playing basketball. It does feel like if anyone

1028
00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:08,400
Speaker 4: of the of the four they're currently Ernies the no brainer.

1029
00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:10,320
Speaker 4: But I'm still up on the whole thing going in.

1030
00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:12,560
Speaker 4: Let's get into yours.

1031
00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:14,880
Speaker 1: Is he's inducted as well for the Dream Team, right,

1032
00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:17,600
Speaker 1: so that'll be a three time inductee to one whoa

1033
00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:19,759
Speaker 1: great point, great different plaques in each one.

1034
00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:21,279
Speaker 4: Maybe let's hear from you, guys, what do you think

1035
00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:23,279
Speaker 4: on all three of those up downs? Let us know

1036
00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:24,719
Speaker 4: on Twitter hashtag no dunks all right.

1037
00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:28,839
Speaker 5: Time for tweet of the night, Tweet of the knight.

1038
00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:36,640
Speaker 5: Wow twitt, I feel like.

1039
00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:39,880
Speaker 1: A regular lelis here because tonight's Today's tweet of the

1040
00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:44,520
Speaker 1: night is a two parter. They came through at about

1041
00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:47,600
Speaker 1: the same time last night. It was nineteen ninety five

1042
00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:49,680
Speaker 1: night for the Toronto Raptors. So here are a couple

1043
00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:52,799
Speaker 1: of tweets from some Toronto Raptors fans. The first comes

1044
00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:57,759
Speaker 1: from Steve Sladkowski, guitarist for Pop the band close compatriot

1045
00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:01,239
Speaker 1: rubber co worker Blake Murphy. He tweets, the jerseys are dope,

1046
00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:03,200
Speaker 1: the court is dope, the warm up clothes are dope.

1047
00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:06,520
Speaker 1: This is so sick. Unfollow me if you've ever slandered

1048
00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:08,920
Speaker 1: this era of Raptors jerseys.

1049
00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:11,440
Speaker 3: Wow, that's an aggressive tweet.

1050
00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:14,280
Speaker 1: That is an aggressive tweet. You're not gonna be surprisedly,

1051
00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:17,640
Speaker 1: it's in all caps, very adamant. These are good jerseys. However,

1052
00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:21,560
Speaker 1: Drew Fairservice, our coworker at the Athletic Host of Birds

1053
00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:25,640
Speaker 1: All Day Heat tweets the purple Dinosaur was corny then,

1054
00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:26,440
Speaker 1: and it's corny.

1055
00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:27,320
Speaker 5: No, it's on.

1056
00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:30,920
Speaker 1: I will not accept the erasure of my well deserved

1057
00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:34,960
Speaker 1: scorn for the team's branding for twenty odd years. There's

1058
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:38,120
Speaker 1: some Raptors fans here. Are the jerseys flash or are

1059
00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:39,000
Speaker 1: they trash.

1060
00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:43,920
Speaker 5: In a vacuum? They're trash, of course, hold on scorn

1061
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:47,640
Speaker 5: for twenty odd years, drew fairservice. Things got better after

1062
00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:50,680
Speaker 5: ninety nine, things turned up. There were some bad years

1063
00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:52,879
Speaker 5: with the purple on the front, black on the back

1064
00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:55,560
Speaker 5: there afterwards, but things have gotten a hack of a

1065
00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:58,960
Speaker 5: lot better, a hack of a lot better. I guess

1066
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:00,759
Speaker 5: he's saying twenty five have been good.

1067
00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:03,480
Speaker 1: I think what he's saying is, I remember when these

1068
00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:05,719
Speaker 1: Raptors jerseys came in, and they were a joke back then,

1069
00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:07,719
Speaker 1: and I've hated him ever since. But now that we're

1070
00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:10,200
Speaker 1: a good team and the jerseys are old, everybody likes.

1071
00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:12,959
Speaker 2: That is so dumb.

1072
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:16,560
Speaker 4: They were not They were not trash when they were unveiled. Yeah,

1073
00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:18,880
Speaker 4: there were some jokes about it being named after obviously

1074
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:23,440
Speaker 4: a movie, Jurassic Park. They sold mad merchandise of these jerseys.

1075
00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:27,480
Speaker 4: It was obviously a six gigantic success that people.

1076
00:47:27,400 --> 00:47:29,000
Speaker 5: Like talking in all caps?

1077
00:47:29,560 --> 00:47:30,080
Speaker 3: Am I wrong?

1078
00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:31,080
Speaker 5: Am I wrong?

1079
00:47:31,360 --> 00:47:36,239
Speaker 2: Stick to baseball? Fair service, I'm not wrong.

1080
00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:39,560
Speaker 5: So they they sold a lot, but the team it

1081
00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:42,000
Speaker 5: contributed to the to the team being looked at as

1082
00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:45,480
Speaker 5: a Mickey Mouse franchise. I think having a big Goofy

1083
00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:47,960
Speaker 5: Barney on the front of her I think when yeah.

1084
00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:50,080
Speaker 2: I think when ten Games had more to do with that.

1085
00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:54,200
Speaker 3: But hey, when Kyle Larry was celebrating wearing his throwing back,

1086
00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:57,400
Speaker 3: it looked cool on him then. So it's one of

1087
00:47:57,440 --> 00:47:59,440
Speaker 3: those ones that looks cool as a fashion aut him.

1088
00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:02,200
Speaker 3: Maybe a basketball uni it's only got a short shelf life.

1089
00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:05,359
Speaker 1: How about the court with the court last night from

1090
00:48:05,400 --> 00:48:08,840
Speaker 1: ninety five purple outside of the key a blank lane,

1091
00:48:09,200 --> 00:48:13,319
Speaker 1: And I didn't remember how many raptor logos there were

1092
00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:15,640
Speaker 1: from back then. You had the raptor logo, the main one,

1093
00:48:15,680 --> 00:48:17,920
Speaker 1: the guy dribbling the basketball at center court. You have

1094
00:48:18,080 --> 00:48:20,520
Speaker 1: a raptor eating a basketball in the bottom left corner.

1095
00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:23,359
Speaker 1: You have a raptor eating a tr in the top

1096
00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:25,840
Speaker 1: right corner. And then you had like ten ball claws

1097
00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:28,640
Speaker 1: walking across the court. There's a lot of dinosaur branding going.

1098
00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:30,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, there's bad branding, and I agree with true fair

1099
00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:33,600
Speaker 5: service on that. I just think I'm being picky with

1100
00:48:33,680 --> 00:48:36,160
Speaker 5: the twenty years. Let's let's scale that back to about

1101
00:48:36,320 --> 00:48:40,160
Speaker 5: seven eight nine. Yeah, there's some bad there's bad years.

1102
00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:43,719
Speaker 5: I think. Listen, it's it's ugly to look at now,

1103
00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:47,760
Speaker 5: but it's just nostalgia seeping through. God. It feels goos

1104
00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:50,040
Speaker 5: to look back at that. That's my that's my youth.

1105
00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:53,480
Speaker 5: Of course I love it, so it doesn't matter. I

1106
00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:56,120
Speaker 5: can anything could be on that. You know that court,

1107
00:48:56,320 --> 00:48:58,280
Speaker 5: those ten logo, they could have made one up because

1108
00:48:58,280 --> 00:49:00,520
Speaker 5: they had so many logos. I still would have loved it.

1109
00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:02,560
Speaker 5: But all that purple, I think it would have been

1110
00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:06,640
Speaker 5: reflecting into the player's eyes. There's so much. There was

1111
00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:09,880
Speaker 5: way too much. And I actually was working with Gary

1112
00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:12,200
Speaker 5: Payton yesterday and yeah, who's the bounce? And he was

1113
00:49:12,280 --> 00:49:15,000
Speaker 5: looking at that court and he said, that's blue. That's

1114
00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:17,719
Speaker 5: not purple. The jerseys are purple. Gay.

1115
00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:19,600
Speaker 3: Now we've got that dress again. Is it blue?

1116
00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:22,640
Speaker 5: I don't know how that's not a debate.

1117
00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:26,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, that is. That is Gary would have played

1118
00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:28,319
Speaker 3: on that court, I know, that's why.

1119
00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:30,919
Speaker 5: How how does he not know he's a hall of fame.

1120
00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:33,080
Speaker 3: Tat he's a hall of fame. This is a hall

1121
00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:33,840
Speaker 3: of fame eyes.

1122
00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:36,880
Speaker 4: This is how you do, like really lean into a

1123
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:39,439
Speaker 4: throwback night though. I mean, they're celebrating twenty five years

1124
00:49:39,520 --> 00:49:41,759
Speaker 4: as the Raptors franchise, but they have, so they have.

1125
00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:44,120
Speaker 4: They're gonna have six of these Raptors rewind Nights, as

1126
00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:46,000
Speaker 4: they're calling them. So you're gonna see this court and

1127
00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:47,239
Speaker 4: you're gonna see these jerseys again.

1128
00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:50,600
Speaker 2: But man, task the Bare Naked Ladies perform?

1129
00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:53,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, or the consistent members of the Bar Naked Ladies

1130
00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:55,719
Speaker 4: performed the national anthem like they did in ninety five.

1131
00:49:56,120 --> 00:49:59,080
Speaker 2: Chau Claire was the halftime performance.

1132
00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:05,960
Speaker 4: Hey, and yes, Electric Circus hosts Monicadol was there and

1133
00:50:06,080 --> 00:50:08,040
Speaker 4: they talked to her like they were playing rhythm as

1134
00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:08,840
Speaker 4: a dancer or something like.

1135
00:50:09,080 --> 00:50:11,320
Speaker 2: They leaned really hard into.

1136
00:50:11,160 --> 00:50:13,080
Speaker 4: This, and I think knocked it out of the park.

1137
00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:14,600
Speaker 4: If you're gonna do one of these things, I bet

1138
00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:16,759
Speaker 4: they would have done this on opening night too if

1139
00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:19,120
Speaker 4: they hadn't won the championship. That's what I was thinking,

1140
00:50:19,160 --> 00:50:22,279
Speaker 4: because this was their second home game. But yeah, I'm

1141
00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:25,840
Speaker 4: flash on the throwbacks and you know, big time thumbs

1142
00:50:25,920 --> 00:50:28,359
Speaker 4: up overall for the whole night. It was well done,

1143
00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:29,000
Speaker 4: well done.

1144
00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:31,440
Speaker 1: Yeah. I liked actually having the magic there too. They

1145
00:50:31,520 --> 00:50:34,040
Speaker 1: weren't wearing their throwbacks, but it was close enough where

1146
00:50:34,160 --> 00:50:36,520
Speaker 1: that they were actually wearing blue. You know, it actually

1147
00:50:36,520 --> 00:50:38,239
Speaker 1: looked like a game from nineteen ninety five. Kudos to

1148
00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:40,320
Speaker 1: the Raptors when they were the Huskies. They went with

1149
00:50:40,400 --> 00:50:42,319
Speaker 1: the full court too. It was so much cooler when

1150
00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:42,840
Speaker 1: you do everything.

1151
00:50:42,920 --> 00:50:45,919
Speaker 5: Yeah, and Kyle Lowry postgame in his interview, was asked

1152
00:50:45,920 --> 00:50:48,000
Speaker 5: about the jerseys when he did it on Sports Then

1153
00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:51,839
Speaker 5: he said they're sexy, eat and he walked away.

1154
00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:54,800
Speaker 2: He said, go to the Knight sexy something like that.

1155
00:50:55,200 --> 00:50:56,319
Speaker 2: All right, Well, that's dif for you guys.

1156
00:50:56,360 --> 00:50:57,600
Speaker 4: What did you think? Were you fans of them or not?

1157
00:50:57,640 --> 00:51:00,520
Speaker 4: All right, last night's picked up results. We were looking

1158
00:51:00,560 --> 00:51:02,919
Speaker 4: back at Monday night. We had the Denver Kings game.

1159
00:51:04,160 --> 00:51:06,960
Speaker 4: Denver was favored by six and a half and they

1160
00:51:07,080 --> 00:51:10,600
Speaker 4: won by seven. Oh my goodness. The Kings had a

1161
00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:12,759
Speaker 4: couple look right at the end too, like sort of

1162
00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:16,680
Speaker 4: la yeah, like a pointless little floater could have got

1163
00:51:16,719 --> 00:51:18,880
Speaker 4: the win for the King's betters out there, but instead

1164
00:51:18,920 --> 00:51:21,480
Speaker 4: the Nuggets get it done. Lee and I had Denver.

1165
00:51:21,640 --> 00:51:24,040
Speaker 4: So we're both four and one for the short month

1166
00:51:24,080 --> 00:51:26,319
Speaker 4: of October. So we're in the clear task you followed

1167
00:51:26,320 --> 00:51:27,839
Speaker 4: to one and four because you had the Kings tray

1168
00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:30,040
Speaker 4: or two and three because you had the Kings. What's

1169
00:51:30,080 --> 00:51:31,680
Speaker 4: tonight's game? Only three games on tonight.

1170
00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:35,840
Speaker 5: I also picked a big line for this evening to

1171
00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:38,480
Speaker 5: make it juicy. I think it makes it a tougher pick.

1172
00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:40,879
Speaker 5: Good juice last night, no doubt, Thank you very much.

1173
00:51:41,320 --> 00:51:45,840
Speaker 5: I'll accept that juice. Atlanta visiting the Miami Heat. Atlanta

1174
00:51:45,880 --> 00:51:48,440
Speaker 5: played at home last night, back to back. Going to

1175
00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:51,759
Speaker 5: Miami's coming off, I lost a couple of nights ago.

1176
00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:55,000
Speaker 5: But they're favored by a lot of points. They're favored

1177
00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:57,000
Speaker 5: by eight and a half points over the Hawks, and

1178
00:51:57,040 --> 00:51:58,440
Speaker 5: they have to win by nine.

1179
00:51:58,640 --> 00:51:59,319
Speaker 2: I'll take the heat.

1180
00:51:59,360 --> 00:51:59,920
Speaker 5: You're taking them.

1181
00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:02,239
Speaker 2: I'll take the Heat by nine plus.

1182
00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:04,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that. I think the Hawks are due

1183
00:52:04,120 --> 00:52:06,160
Speaker 5: for a blow loss as well. I'll take the heat

1184
00:52:06,160 --> 00:52:06,440
Speaker 5: as well.

1185
00:52:06,640 --> 00:52:07,480
Speaker 1: I'm on the heat too.

00:52:07,719 --> 00:52:11,560
Speaker 3: Whoa, whoa, Yeah, it's a big one. Jimmy Butler. We

1187
00:52:11,680 --> 00:52:14,480
Speaker 3: haven't heard if he's playing him, I guess. But the

1188
00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:16,640
Speaker 3: heat of being Guds I found very very competitive. I

1189
00:52:16,800 --> 00:52:20,160
Speaker 3: like Ken what's his name, Kendrick Nunn. He's been he's
