Speaker 1: hit the tournament, before I even went to the tournament,
Speaker 1: already had my bags packed shipped, like my my dorm
Speaker 1: was already shipped, because I knew I was coming back
Speaker 1: to school. Was off. Yeah, I wasn't even coming back

Speaker 1: education line. I mean, I was still like two and
Speaker 1: a half years away from graduating anyway. It sound school

Speaker 1: getting ready for the draft. You know what I'm saying. Yeah, Yeah.
Speaker 1: It was like, you know what, even after we lost,
Speaker 1: it was tough because you know, it was Cat's last
Speaker 1: game and Cats was crying in there, and all I
Speaker 1: was thinking about, like, all right, next step to the league.
Speaker 1: It was just like I just was like, damn, you know,
Speaker 1: I wanted to win it all, but it was like
Speaker 1: it was like, now, all right, now it's the next steps.
Speaker 1: Y'all really thought y'all had a chance to win that
Speaker 1: shit off every year. No way, when y'all thought I
Speaker 1: was going to n Cuba Tournament, thinking ya, every year
Speaker 1: we was top tier every year. It was top five team.
Speaker 1: Every year y'all got your last pop firstround, it was
Speaker 1: like tier was number two. It was either number one
Speaker 1: or two in the nation. Ever got your pop. It's
Speaker 1: hard to win. It's hard to win how you wanted
Speaker 1: to y'all getting pop Cab and Tyson Wheeler, they shout us,
Speaker 1: they shot us out. You have no top tier man problem.
Speaker 1: Win the tournament. When you top tier, you top tier,
Speaker 1: you're gaming your team, y'all, y'all see your place. Says
Speaker 1: that y'all were no top tiers like thirty five and three.
Speaker 1: When y'all got to the tournament, y'all got pop ship.
Speaker 1: Y'all got y'all last pop. That's tough. Y'all had like
Speaker 1: eight niggas on that ship went to the league out
Speaker 1: of their team too. I was thinking about his fairy
Speaker 1: got team. They got popped game. Look, they got popped.
Speaker 1: You know they didn't go to the hand me that
Speaker 1: live I got. That's a live shot. They were supposed
Speaker 1: to be talking. Talk to you. I'm still looking for you.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Don't don't up. I got
Speaker 1: was God damn lord, they got pop. I got your
Speaker 1: last part. Scott Paula Raye, Doodoo ass the French. Come on, man,
Speaker 1: you're shooting that bullship barn. Get your glass out of here,
Speaker 1: right Rode Island, nigga can't shy'all lass hold right, Philly
Speaker 1: for sure, Philly hold. Yeah, it was at us, the
Speaker 1: guard playing. It was the guard playing. Though. You have
Speaker 1: to go. You gotta have guard players, said Jock Bond,
Speaker 1: and all that ship. You you got to have shooting,
Speaker 1: Like we didn't have a lot of shootings. How y'all
Speaker 1: gonna be top tier? I mean because we we played
Speaker 1: all school basketball and you know, we put the ball
Speaker 1: inside and grind it out, and we was good because
Speaker 1: we was bigger. And you know, I only could do
Speaker 1: so much if you didn't have no shooting. You know,
Speaker 1: it's hard to win in a tournament. You know, it's
Speaker 1: everything is based around the tournament, and it don't matter.
Speaker 1: From early two thousands. You gotta have guard players that
Speaker 1: can shoot. He was I was still balling, Like I
Speaker 1: was balling. You still balling. But and then I know, yeah,
Speaker 1: but you playing, and then you play in the system,
Speaker 1: it's a different type of said you was in the box. Boy,
Speaker 1: It wasn't like I could just be like watch it.
Speaker 1: I'm like, damn, get off, Like oh yeah he got
Speaker 1: to pass that ship. Yeah yeah, that's like you from Inglewood.
Speaker 1: You ready to get loose. But at the same time,
Speaker 1: I learned how to like work with fundamentals and work
Speaker 1: with others and play together, you know, with other players.
Speaker 1: You know, because in high school we don't really learn basketball.
Speaker 1: We just so talented. No think about it like you
Speaker 1: could just you just went out there and just dominate.
Speaker 1: We got to be so dominant in high school. And
Speaker 1: like I didn't when I got to college. I didn't
Speaker 1: know how to play a down screen. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. That's different. That's what I'm saying. You didn't
Speaker 1: know how to play a fan pitch. And you know
Speaker 1: what I'm talking about, like you know, post work, three
Speaker 1: quarters fronting. You know what I'm saying, high three quarters.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Like I come from North
Speaker 1: Carolina system, going down, sitting the street, you know the flex,
Speaker 1: the flex actually come off the bottom, go down the pick.
Speaker 1: I come from that ship, you know. I come from
Speaker 1: them old ass football basketball coaches just cutting your ass
Speaker 1: out and hear button you and ship. You know what
Speaker 1: I mean. Yeah, shout, yeah, shout shout the Duke fish
Speaker 1: and all that with Nelson and all that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, stay just with college and then we'll move on.
Speaker 2: Mike Malone, h would you like to hire.
Speaker 1: Like that one pee you said he keep it in
Speaker 1: the family. I mean, it's just hard for me to
Speaker 1: like see NBA coach. I love Mike Malone as an
Speaker 1: NBA coach, but I'm like, you know, how is that
Speaker 1: gonna work? Like you went from the top of the
Speaker 1: top of the NBA. Now you come down to college
Speaker 1: and you're gonna be dealing with kids that like, I
Speaker 1: need this money and they gonna be like, or I'm transferring,
Speaker 1: Like you know what I'm saying, Like, when you play
Speaker 1: with the best of the best and you there, you
Speaker 1: have to deal with these kids. I don't. I'm just
Speaker 1: wondering how psychologically he's gonna deal with these kids when
Speaker 1: he dealt with these grown men, top tier teams and
Speaker 1: won a championship in the NBA. You know, that's my
Speaker 1: only thing. It's just like how you gonna deal with
Speaker 1: a kid or have to go into a kid house,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. It's like it's tough for
Speaker 1: me to picture that. But maybe he just want to,
Speaker 1: you know, get back in the mix as fast as
Speaker 1: he can, because I think he could have just waited
Speaker 1: and got another NBA job. It's NBA jobs opening up
Speaker 1: all the time. Maybe I want to lead more. Maybe
Speaker 1: he want to go to college, and but like you'd rather,
Speaker 1: I'd rather deal with it from an NBA player, really, right,
Speaker 1: deal with grown people with grown understand a kid at
Speaker 1: eighteen nineteen telling me run that check. Well, I say this.
Speaker 1: I know his daughter plays volleyball for the University of
Speaker 1: North Carolina. You know when you got kids. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: sure he's had to go through the process of her
Speaker 1: being recruited by other, you know, schools, So he's probably
Speaker 1: familiar with the recruiting before long, long time ago nineteen
Speaker 1: ninety five, I think ninety four, he was an assistant
Speaker 1: coach in Manhattan, so he's been in the college level.
Speaker 1: He's built his way up Obviostel, Sacramento, Rare respected, went
Speaker 1: through the CBA, went through the if you do this,
Speaker 1: do the knowledge on on Mike Malone, his dad Malone's Detroit.
Speaker 1: They come from a loan line of just dope ass minds.
Speaker 1: When it comes to the xs and those, I think
Speaker 1: I'm thinking a little different. I think that he can Actually,
Speaker 1: when you take coaches like this that are enriched in
Speaker 1: knowledge in development. Think about Joker, y'all. Joker won Joko
Speaker 1: when he got the Denver it took him maybe two
Speaker 1: years to get to where we see him now, to
Speaker 1: where he developed and stuff. That's part of you know,
Speaker 1: that's part of the Malone joint. You feel me? So
Speaker 1: I think that he can actually go there make gods
Speaker 1: like Kayler Williams or some of these young superstars that
Speaker 1: need to be you know, chiseled here and cut here
Speaker 1: and then you know what I'm saying, smoothed out and
Speaker 1: just teach still the NBA game from the collegiate. If
Speaker 1: you can do that, if you can translate way he
Speaker 1: didn't endeavver into North Carolina, man, and figure that out. Yeah,
Speaker 1: recruitment is everybody's gonna have the same problem in recruitment, Pete,
Speaker 1: because it's gonna be an issue of what can I
Speaker 1: pay you? And if everybody has an option to pay you,
Speaker 1: then hey, we all gonna play the same game. It's
Speaker 1: when I get you in between these full walls and
Speaker 1: now I get to teach you and developed you. And
Speaker 1: I actually he's been a railing in the MVP. He
Speaker 1: developed an MVP. He developed an MVP in dever, So
Speaker 1: he knows what goes into that. He knows the work
Speaker 1: that goes into that. Yeah, but he ain't gonna have
Speaker 1: times of develop them. What the fuck you mean? Got
Speaker 1: no time, bry So, they got it's time. They have
Speaker 1: an off season. They have summer shit, don't they But
Speaker 1: you understand the turnover on the on the players, like
Speaker 1: Michigan had all guys who are in the portal and
Speaker 1: that's the game. Yeah, but they again they now they're
Speaker 1: gonna have a whole new team next year. Facts or
Speaker 1: they still gonna come under them full walls and learn
Speaker 1: that system. I'm not saying them players gonna play better
Speaker 1: or less. I'm saying that, Okay, that's the game. P
Speaker 1: Free agency gonna be the game. Once I got the players,
Speaker 1: that's when the coaching and the development and having being
Speaker 1: a great day coach comes in because I got to
Speaker 1: organize these niggas, right. And then let's think a Michigan.
Speaker 1: If I just want with this team, let me see
Speaker 1: what I'm losing first, Okay, let's replace that. Then they
Speaker 1: go to I don't think missions gonna come back with
Speaker 1: a brand new team. I don't understand that the Yeah,
Speaker 1: they gonna come with a brand I bet they come
Speaker 1: up with the majority of their core and and add
Speaker 1: some pieces. I think some of these guys will go
Speaker 1: to the league. And if they do go to the league,
Speaker 1: you gotta replace them, right. But if those guys come
Speaker 1: back and play some of them have a whole news
Speaker 1: starting five next year. No way, no way, no way,
Speaker 1: I'm telling you bet some gentlemen. Shit, come on, let's
Speaker 1: get it. That's how it is.
Speaker 2: That's how it is to transferportal right now for men's
Speaker 2: over a thousand players.
Speaker 1: I got you, I hear it. That's the game though
Speaker 1: they I'm saying to be that. You don't know. They
Speaker 1: stop go up. This is what they do ticket They
Speaker 1: stop go up, right, So they're like, oh okay, my
Speaker 1: stock is un so now let me jump in the portal.
Speaker 1: You'll get some more money, right, I got you, And
Speaker 1: they jumping the portal get evaluated. But like you know,
Speaker 1: the guys in Michigan, whoever ain't going to the league
Speaker 1: will their best bet is to go to the portal
Speaker 1: because now they stock us up. So I just seen
Speaker 1: Trump hit the executive order. I think as of whatever
Speaker 1: when it effects a lot of these If that ship
Speaker 1: goes through a lot of them, players wouldn't have the option.
Speaker 1: They going back to the old the old country joint
Speaker 1: where you gotta if you transfer once, you gotta stay there.
Speaker 1: And then that's show transfer. You can't even you can't
Speaker 1: even wiggle and move no more, bro. You see you
Speaker 1: see the new joints is coming out. You see the
Speaker 1: new rules is coming out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Trump's trying to step in and make some changes
Speaker 2: to how it's gonnaffect everything. Bro.
Speaker 1: They doesn't listen. They punching. They finna punch holes it
Speaker 1: in il Many. And yet we still don't have a
Speaker 1: players union to protect the players. We still don't have
Speaker 1: a financial literacy to teach these players what to do
Speaker 1: with their money. It's no programs to be all able
Speaker 1: to talk. College. Ain't even trying to set up no universities,
Speaker 1: no conferences, no conferences or even trying to set up
Speaker 1: a program for kids to be able to be taught
Speaker 1: what to do with this money. It's educational, it's institutional.
Speaker 1: It's all universities. You should this is when they learning
Speaker 1: everything right, Why the fuck you have a program or
Speaker 1: a student body that protects his players? Are the student athletes?
Speaker 1: Let's ask that question. Fucking artist changing the rules and shit?
Speaker 1: And then what's the mother for that? Was that? Alabama?
Speaker 1: What's the nigga that the quarter say? Nick Saban is
Speaker 1: he's shit dog because he actually ate off that system
Speaker 1: that they're shutting down or that he's bitching about. He
Speaker 1: ate off that system for years, and now it's even
Speaker 1: ground where I can do the same thing you doing.
Speaker 1: You bitching about it as far as ask got out, Lord,
Speaker 1: you made the point that you didn't think Mike Malone
Speaker 1: would be able to jump this wave of understanding the
Speaker 1: culture in today's player. That's why Nick Saban got his
Speaker 1: ass out, because now it's even grand. You actually got
Speaker 1: to do some coaching, and now you ain't got all
Speaker 1: these big ass giants. I got the same job. You understand,
Speaker 1: it's coming down to the grid. Bro. All these mother
Speaker 1: fors is bitching about it actually benefited from it, BROI bullshit.
Speaker 3: One thing Michael Loon could benefit from hereous what you
Speaker 3: guys think. Jokic's agent, Misco, I'm gonna not say his
Speaker 3: last name, but he was the one that was instrumental
Speaker 3: bringing all the guys over to Illinois, the international players.
Speaker 3: Could you see Mike Malone going, hey, let's recruiter you
Speaker 3: and c work with a guy that I'm familiar with
Speaker 3: in Jokic and get some guys from them.
Speaker 1: That's gonna be a new wavep We're about to see
Speaker 1: the first big wave of international players coming into college
Speaker 1: and watch how much I'm not anticipated just because of
Speaker 1: the knowledge in IQ of you see Illinois. I swear
Speaker 1: to god, I didn't know anybody's names, apology, but I
Speaker 1: can tell you number twenty three. I could tell you,
Speaker 1: you know, numbers and what I was looking at, and
Speaker 1: I was like, Wow, look how this looks. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. That was a different look in college
Speaker 1: that I've seen in college. You gotta know that that's
Speaker 1: gonna be a path in the wave. You know, if
Speaker 1: guys can't come straight into the league, they either gonna
Speaker 1: go g league of college. That's just what it is internationally, right. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they look like they great. I was watching the Illinoyds
Speaker 1: team because they look like some grown out there. They
Speaker 1: was like like they've been played pro ball over there.
Speaker 1: It was polish, right, Yeah, I mean they was cool,
Speaker 1: but they was they was They look older. They look
Speaker 1: like about twenty four twenty five, like they were drinking wine.
Speaker 1: They mustache and ship saying the big man all they
Speaker 1: big men you probably played. Yeah, yeah, niggas have cigarette
Speaker 1: breaks at halftime and ship right, can't even go on
Speaker 1: campus and talk to the other students. Do you like that?
Speaker 1: Do you like the format or do you like the
Speaker 1: fact that they could come in and actually make make
Speaker 1: some universities better. Like I mean, I don't like whatever
Speaker 1: is going on right now made college basketball more watchable
Speaker 1: for me because I haven't watched college basketball in a
Speaker 1: lot of years. But I really actually like paid attention
Speaker 1: to college this last couple of years. Like so it
Speaker 1: makes it interesting. You know that Carolina ain't in Kansas,
Speaker 1: ain't in the mix every year when you got these
Speaker 1: other teams. Now that that's you know, competing and getting players,
Speaker 1: and you know next year you're gonna have five star
Speaker 1: recruits going to small schools and I like that. Actually,
Speaker 1: it's just I like that it ain't just the same
Speaker 1: wave of Duke every year or this, and that they
Speaker 1: got they getting challenged now and at the end, you know,
Speaker 1: a year, we did have two big time schools in
Speaker 1: Michigan and Yukon, but like a lot of these little
Speaker 1: schools is making the name for theyself. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, That ain't really got the recognition that these
Speaker 1: other schools. So I like the competition in college, but
Speaker 1: you think we go see more colleges play each other
Speaker 1: during the year, like better schools playing each other. You
Speaker 1: think we can see Yukon and Michigan playing around, Well, yeah,
Speaker 1: you got. The conferences are set, Like the Big twelve
Speaker 1: was the sickest conference this year that you ever want
Speaker 1: to see. They had like six teams in the top
Speaker 1: twenty five. So it was just like every week you
Speaker 1: see in a Marquee matchup DYU out of Bouncy versus Kansas.
Speaker 1: Then you see in Arizona versus b Yu, and in
Speaker 1: Iowa State all these teams. Was was was ranked in
Speaker 1: the top twenty five and they was playing each other
Speaker 1: every week. It was like every day on Turning TV,
Speaker 1: it's a top twenty five game on. And that was
Speaker 1: just in one conference. And I was just like, damn
Speaker 1: made a hell of interest. I think the days of
Speaker 1: them old uh, when you had the SEC and acc
Speaker 1: dominating the ship in the twelve, I think them days
Speaker 1: over with Big ten ten they cracked. Now yeah, now
Speaker 1: that's gonna help recruiting. Can you can you get those
Speaker 1: kids out of those warmer climates to come to the
Speaker 1: Midwest and come to some of these institutions. Yeah, it's money, Yeah,
Speaker 1: money gonna talk. It's it's open, game's open, fairways out
Speaker 1: here you got, you got University of Indiana winning the
Speaker 1: College Michigan winning the n C Double A. That's crazy, right,
Speaker 1: But man, the thing about the portal, what I'm seeing
Speaker 1: is like one kid one school's trash is another school's trasher.
Speaker 1: Because you go from a kid over here who ain't
Speaker 1: getting it, then he go over here, he a lottery picked.
Speaker 1: Now you know what I'm saying. He went over he
Speaker 1: transfer was like, damn, they didn't see that over there.
Speaker 1: You think systems, you said, the systems A big Systems
Speaker 1: is a big thing man in college. Yeah, it really is.
Speaker 1: Recruiting the systems. You got to be in the right
Speaker 1: place at the right time. Especially, uh if you're not
Speaker 1: like one of the top players out of high school
Speaker 1: who are already kind of projected and then now you
Speaker 1: didne did three years of school and if you get
Speaker 1: to the right spot, you could be player of the
Speaker 1: year in the conference. And then you know, next thing,
Speaker 1: you know, you're getting drafted. Last week of the season. Pete,
Speaker 1: who clicking for you? Who you like going into April
Speaker 1: going into the playing like, who what teams are you
Speaker 1: watching that's giving you some energy? Just you're like, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: they look like they you know what I'm saying. Right now,
Speaker 1: I'm gearing up for a Western Conference finals match up
Speaker 1: with Denver, and Okay, see for sure, Denver, yeah, is
Speaker 1: getting healthy, Like they are rolling right now. I think
Speaker 1: they're on like a nine ten game win stream right
Speaker 1: now to end the season. Right now, they playing their
Speaker 1: best basketball. They're getting healthy finally. Obviously the Celtics, oh
Speaker 1: my gosh, just the emergence of Tatum and the energy
Speaker 1: he then brought back to the to the team and
Speaker 1: a real joke into the city. It's just like, man,
Speaker 1: the Celtics look like the clear favorite, like the clear
Speaker 1: favorite with Detroit being dealing with injuries. With New York,
Speaker 1: they seem like they up and down. They they just
Speaker 1: beat They just got a good win though versus Atlanta
Speaker 1: that they should have lost. But they've been struggling against teams,
Speaker 1: playoff teams throughout the season, so it just looked like
Speaker 1: these two teams might be on the head on collision. Maybe. Okay,
Speaker 1: it's not okay seeing Denver though, because oh and Denver
Speaker 1: gonna scare you because they got the best player in
Speaker 1: the league. He's the best player in the league. After
Speaker 1: I saw what he did at the Weinby he's the
Speaker 1: best player. He I mean the shots he was hitting
Speaker 1: over Wemby bro in the crucial Like he's the best player.
Speaker 1: SHA's the MVP, but Joker's the best player. Yeah. Them
Speaker 1: is the two that stand all them teams is headed shoulders.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't want to count the San Antonio,
Speaker 1: but I like Denver in the playoffs setting to this
Speaker 1: year versus San Antonio. If it's a two to three matchup,
Speaker 1: which it is right now, I like them to beat
Speaker 1: them in the second round because of the experience and
Speaker 1: then head up collision with Okay see Denver. Denver show
Speaker 1: they can play with Oka See like they wanted because
Speaker 1: Okay seeven a bus saw. But Denver has shown that
Speaker 1: they can go toe to toe with Okay see if
Speaker 1: they are healthy. I'm talking about all the way healthy
Speaker 1: Bruce Brown, Gordon, all of them, and then the young kid.
Speaker 1: He came along the second half of the season because
Speaker 1: I was I was. I was down on him the
Speaker 1: trade because we were talking about the Michael Porter Jr. Trade.
Speaker 1: We thought that Brooklyn won that trade, but Cam Johnson
Speaker 1: been balling that. I told you that early on both
Speaker 1: ends of the I like what he's but it took
Speaker 1: some time for him. But now this right now, he's
Speaker 1: a key for them. Man, I told you early p
Speaker 1: Demmer was my dark horse. Obviously. I'm just seeing all
Speaker 1: these other teams not ascending. That's all I see. Win two,
Speaker 1: lose two, you know what I'm saying, Win three, lose
Speaker 1: you know one they shouldn't have. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you, bro, Man that God damn Charlotte.
Speaker 1: Are you watching Mill no more? Yeah? Lord, he's a problem.
Speaker 1: He is. Man. He loves the Celtics too, though for
Speaker 1: some reason this year he loves playing in the garden
Speaker 1: this year, you feel me. Yeah, they are ascending because
Speaker 1: nobody has Charlotte doing anything and nothing, and they got
Speaker 1: a full headed monstrup there. Boy, if you ain't ready,
Speaker 1: they will smoke you and blow you out the gym. Bro.
Speaker 1: Now I'm looking at man. I'm watching the Celtics quietly,
Speaker 1: steamroll and very professionally and just under the radar. I
Speaker 1: don't even think it's under radar no more. Bro, They're
Speaker 1: gonna end this season. That's the number one seed. Bro. Hey,
Speaker 1: I'm watching team you don't think so? The ain't got
Speaker 1: enough games to catch.
Speaker 2: Detroit would have to lose everything.
Speaker 1: Let's go through the match up today. If you start today, Okay,
Speaker 1: so today he's to start the East Coast start to eat.
Speaker 1: So one plays we got to play in so we
Speaker 1: can't even get to that was the player.
Speaker 2: Let's just look at three six first.
Speaker 3: So three six would be New York and Toronto, and
Speaker 3: then four or five would be Cleveland Atlanta.
Speaker 1: Them is not no easy first round wins for the
Speaker 1: two for the for the four of Toronto, go fight Toronto,
Speaker 1: Go fight, Atlanta's gonna fight both of them. Teams gonna fight,
Speaker 1: and Toronto got believed that they could beat some of
Speaker 1: these teams. You feel me, Scottie Barnes ain't some average guy.
Speaker 1: Yo him and hear me, hear me, Ingram They I
Speaker 1: seen Ingram range this game in the in the puffs
Speaker 1: before you know what I'm saying. That's gonna be interesting.
Speaker 1: That'd be a nice little challenge for the Knicks too. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Knicks gotta see uh well who they gotta see a
Speaker 1: game Toronto, Toronto Raptors and Cleveland. Gotta see Atlanta Atlanta Atlanta.
Speaker 1: Toronto got some great atmosphere when it come to the playoffs, what.
Speaker 2: Separated by two and a half games?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Who you liking that? Atlanta Cleveland first round? I
Speaker 1: think Atlanta's gonna push them, but I think Cleveland's gonna
Speaker 1: win the series to go seven six. I think they
Speaker 1: should get them out of there in six. So you
Speaker 1: know what I don't like about young teams Sometimes they
Speaker 1: will shoot themselves in the foot and they don't really
Speaker 1: know how to close out. You know, you know how
Speaker 1: you but you know, you know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 1: Like the Spurs versus Denver the other day. They know
Speaker 1: how to close them out and they know how to
Speaker 1: like get a stop that two on one breakdown and
Speaker 1: stretch through the live and it was a tricky pass.
Speaker 1: Tricky he should like go for the left joker in
Speaker 1: front of you. Yeah, you know what I'm saying, especially
Speaker 1: when goat up, you know what I'm saying, And then
Speaker 1: you got, dude, get the rebound on the other side
Speaker 1: of the joker challenge part. Then he do a tricky
Speaker 1: live in the crucial that cost the game and that
Speaker 1: switched home momento from there. That's crazy. Yeah, I'm I'm
Speaker 1: wrong with p saying because I'm seeing the same thing
Speaker 1: he's saying. And listen, I like, how okay, see it's
Speaker 1: just sitting man, like the homie, They're not sitting there.
Speaker 1: They are blowing teams out. Or listen, I'm talking about
Speaker 1: they played the Likers back. You see kso did he
Speaker 1: was just picking out. He was picking up full court. Man,
Speaker 1: I have it when you can't get past half. But listen,
Speaker 1: that's what makes a better player. Dog Brianni got did
Speaker 1: all that and then went to the G League and Cook.
Speaker 1: You understand what I'm saying. So this play right here
Speaker 1: making them better, bro. But yeah, I saw that price pitch.
Speaker 1: Let's get it, and let's get it, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying.
Speaker 2: Friday, we got the Pistons at Hornets Friday.
Speaker 1: Oh is this a preview? This a preview right here? People,
Speaker 1: wuld you play players in this game? Pistons? Uh, Pistons
Speaker 1: at Charlotte. Pistons ain't got nothing to really play for.
Speaker 1: I mean they three games with what they got, like, uh,
Speaker 1: they got figure Celtics. Yeah, it's tough, so they gotta play.
Speaker 1: They gotta play this game. Huh do you play the
Speaker 1: people in this game? Or do you what they remaining
Speaker 1: scheduled for Detroit. Yeah, I think you were young. You
Speaker 1: play all the way through to actually played through the
Speaker 1: road like.
Speaker 3: All that, and the season schedule where they could rest.
Speaker 3: They played the Bucks, the Hornets, and the Pacers.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like Hornets is trying to win. All three of
Speaker 1: them gonna be playing hard. I'm telling you right, I
Speaker 1: think Charlotte gonna win that game because they trying to win. Huh.
Speaker 1: I don't think you'll need the pace to play. Listen,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you man, you play these garbage teams. Man,
Speaker 1: you be thinking. Man, they come out and they playing
Speaker 1: hard as hell. I'm telling you, like how we wash,
Speaker 1: they not like how we was. They also want to three. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they want foot in Carey. They already got one fun turks,
Speaker 1: both of already. You're already gone. They're gone one, two, three,
Speaker 1: A damn yes for sure. Yeah, it's a different time.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm gonna go with Charlotte. Who you're liking this?
Speaker 1: I got Charlotte in this. Yeah, Charlotte. They playing meaningful,
Speaker 1: like like they're on a mission. Like Charlotte is playing well.
Speaker 1: They though. Man, you know what I'm saying, come and
Speaker 1: and then too. If I'm Detroit, I coming I smacked
Speaker 1: Charlotte in the mouth, be like, first round, you throw
Speaker 1: a message in there, like, yeah, got Charlotte at home?
Speaker 1: They at home, right, Yeah, they give me Detroit. I'm
Speaker 1: just still sitting back here thinking about what I'm saying. Man,
Speaker 1: Detroit gonna have to go ahead and belt the ass
Speaker 1: to you. Look, give me a little you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. I told you shut the screen dough. Yeah, like, yeah,
Speaker 1: there's gonna have to be some respect in this. I think.
Speaker 1: Actually give me Detroit, because if I'm Detroit, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: see a little subliminal message right now, just in case
Speaker 1: if we see each other. Yeah, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: Give me Detroit.
Speaker 2: All right, So let's do more or less on Jalen Durant.
Speaker 1: More or less, More or less, Jayleen Durham, Yeah.
Speaker 2: Points more or less. What do you guys got against
Speaker 2: the Hornets?
Speaker 1: I got more. They don't have the interior presence the
Speaker 1: hornets got. He got wicked last time. It was in
Speaker 1: here too, didn't it. You know what was doing it them?
Speaker 1: This guy edgy last time last day. Yeah, yeah, they
Speaker 1: had little I'm going with Jalen duran more more, big
Speaker 1: country God, damn. Yeah for show, big country, Yeah, give me,
Speaker 1: give me more the big Fellow problem. Then there.
Speaker 2: Let's look on the other side of the ball. The
Speaker 2: mellow ball points more or.
Speaker 1: Less, mellow balling. Yeah, I got more from the mellow.
Speaker 1: He had a nice little groove confidence. Did you get
Speaker 1: that off on this defense? What the average Nate twenties.
Speaker 2: Averaged in twenty again this year?
Speaker 1: Mellow? He get it down. He got more for shure,
Speaker 1: you mean more? They go. Man, they ain't gonna be
Speaker 1: sitting out here waiting for him. No, he's gonna get hot,
Speaker 1: all right.
Speaker 2: Next game on Friday, potential playoff matchup, Calves at Atlanta.
Speaker 1: Calves at Atlanta. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Uh so, let's look at Donovan Mitchell points more or less.
Speaker 1: Listen, man, I'm telling you they can't stop him right now.
Speaker 1: Donovan Mitchell twenty eight a game for Donovan. I got
Speaker 1: less on that because Atlanta got defenders. They got left.
Speaker 1: They got six to nine guys all the way across
Speaker 1: the board who could switch off on them. I got
Speaker 1: less in that game. You think they played the Atlanta's
Speaker 1: playing Atlanta's player.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Cleveland up the third place.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they could take the all these teams just gotta
Speaker 1: everybody got to play out funk all the little if
Speaker 1: you're gonna play.
Speaker 3: On the Detroit is really the only one that could
Speaker 3: like has the luxury of like, hey, we're just gonna
Speaker 3: stay past here. The Knicks, I mean, the Celtics could
Speaker 3: too if they wanted to. They're not really gonna happen.
Speaker 1: They don't have to play. Yeah, even more, man, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna go less. Yeah, he gonna listen, Yeah, they're gonna
Speaker 1: they're gonna come in here. This is listen. You got this.
Speaker 1: There's gonna be some subliminals going on here. I don't
Speaker 1: know what we what we think, but if you know
Speaker 1: you're about to see a team, man, p you would
Speaker 1: even say this in lockerham. Hey man, we might see
Speaker 1: these guys in the playoffs. Man, go ahead and see
Speaker 1: the mother of the message, right, like straight up like that,
Speaker 1: Like yeah, that's what I'm saying, Like, go ahead and
Speaker 1: kill go ahead and create present all the doubt. Go
Speaker 1: ahead and build that doubt up. Let him see, y'all man,
Speaker 1: it's too hard to do. Oh man, y'all should go
Speaker 1: ahead and give up. Man, y'all't for y'all ain't got
Speaker 1: a chance, man, straight up. Yeah, that's what I'm anticipating here,
Speaker 1: and I think Atlanta gonna bring it dog. Yeah. Actually, man,
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a good player in Atlanta.
Speaker 3: Let's look at the other side of the ball. To
Speaker 3: kill Alexander Walker. See one of the most improved guys
Speaker 3: in the league.
Speaker 1: Got on he's down there. I'm telling you.
Speaker 2: He's averaging twenty one again money, so points more or
Speaker 2: less on the kill Alexander.
Speaker 1: More, Give me more for mister Alexander ooh in that game,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go less because he's gonna have his hands
Speaker 1: full with trying to guard Donovan and Harden. He's gonna
Speaker 1: be in a lot of picking rolls and they gonna
Speaker 1: have their hairs full. Two. Yeah, so I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: less for him. They gonna have their hairs full. Two
Speaker 1: give me more than Those are the pp picks right there,
Speaker 1: and those are the tick picks, yes, sir so.
Speaker 3: Speaking of the Lakers post All Star they're one of
Speaker 3: the best teams in the NBA. They were third in
Speaker 3: the West as much as a week ago. Now Luca
Speaker 3: and Austin Reeves both get hurt out for the rest
Speaker 3: of the regular season.
Speaker 2: Status for the playoffs up in the air. So the Lakers,
Speaker 2: where's the panic level right now?
Speaker 1: For them? That's at a level ten, that's here lay level.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just demoralizing for Brown because this could
Speaker 1: have been his one last run for a title. Because
Speaker 1: with the way they was playing offensively, you got Luca
Speaker 1: who's an obvious MVP candidate with Reeves. Uh uh, it's
Speaker 1: just demoralizing. Like, I don't see how he can get up.
Speaker 1: I mean, he's gonna get up for the playoffs, But
Speaker 1: now the minutes they gonna put on them, you gotta
Speaker 1: gut out, fuck it good at the workload they're gonna
Speaker 1: put off in a gun out, I'm going for fifty.
Speaker 1: You mean we played d Wade three yo? He had forty. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he was going, but he was young. You asking bron
Speaker 1: to go it? What else do you got that? But like, listen,
Speaker 1: I'm just saying just mentally, I'm just sitting there and
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm draining. That's one way. And then okay,
Speaker 1: after I get over there, I gotta go. Okay, if
Speaker 1: I got no, I got no. If I ain't got
Speaker 1: a chance, I gotta give us a chance. I finel.
Speaker 1: I'm finla come out and good, Hey, baby got the
Speaker 1: ninety clip that baby, Yeah, that's that's tough. Hey listen, y'all,
Speaker 1: me and dad. And then when he if he don't
Speaker 1: play well, he gonna get the criticism. Bro, you can't win.
Speaker 1: Guess what you can't win? Good out right go out,
Speaker 1: guns blazing, bro. At least were like, well, bron James
Speaker 1: Finders with fifty two. Look you got a gun out
Speaker 1: And guess what's gonna happen. Some niggas gonna quit on him.
Speaker 1: They're gonna be in the series. And niggas is already
Speaker 1: one two three, kid, already I'm watching it. Bro. It's
Speaker 1: so guess what to not even deal with all that? Okay,
Speaker 1: y'all follow me. Be ready when a pass it to you,
Speaker 1: be ready to shoot? Like, what are we doing? Because
Speaker 1: you can't go in here? Oh? Mentally dream man, I
Speaker 1: don't hear Luca, I ain't got like, what are you
Speaker 1: gonna do? All right? All right, we're here here. You
Speaker 1: still got NBA players and we're fin the man up.
Speaker 1: We're finna go with these niggas, right, make them beat us,
Speaker 1: make them beat us, yeah, straight up, dar, they gonna
Speaker 1: wind up probably like the fifth seed.
Speaker 2: They could fall the fifth seed right now. So Houston
Speaker 2: and them have identical records.
Speaker 1: And that's like they gonna play. Can they be Houston? No,
Speaker 1: they can't be Houston. Well they can't be Houston without
Speaker 1: Luca and yeah, I mean yeah, but even if they
Speaker 1: had rees, you got they like, you can't beat them
Speaker 1: without Luca. Look, period, if you got reads, you're still
Speaker 1: not beating them. I seen I seen the Rockets players year.
Speaker 1: They weren't all polished. They go to Katie, they get
Speaker 1: but they are also a ship show sometimes they don't
Speaker 1: have all direction. Bro. At Sydney, they playing well, and
Speaker 1: they saw them at a point where they was justine
Speaker 1: shambles about three weeks ago. That's all I'm saying. They
Speaker 1: getting it together. They coming into their stride. But you
Speaker 1: need listen. I'm gonna tell you what the playoffs is
Speaker 1: gonna expose. Uh leadership. If you're coming down asking Katie
Speaker 1: to make decisions on the game when he should be
Speaker 1: the one either receiving it or initiating it. You can't
Speaker 1: have him coming down initiating offense. Bro, he need to
Speaker 1: be the one coming off the double. He needs to
Speaker 1: be the one. I'm telling you Bro, you gotta have
Speaker 1: an IQ to run the game. You gonna have a
Speaker 1: men up there running the game. And he's got to
Speaker 1: make decisions with a guy sitting back in the paint
Speaker 1: telling him to shoot a sixteenth foot when he you can't.
Speaker 1: You can't be at that like that, Bro. He can't
Speaker 1: depend on a young guard you know who with no
Speaker 1: experience like re is it Reid. Yeah, he not ready
Speaker 1: to go. He's not even to me. P He don't
Speaker 1: even play like a point guard. He playing like I'm
Speaker 1: a two guard out here. I'm a shooting guard. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's what the point guard position is now. Nah man, Okay,
Speaker 1: So who's gonna get us in offense? Who's gonna organize us?
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. Kendy coming down like, hey, run
Speaker 1: off the Yeah, you come up like like man, Bro,
Speaker 1: Bro need to be the one come off And you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, like I'm watching all that so
Speaker 1: in that that's why I say the Lakers have a chance.
Speaker 1: And you know when Broun get to the playoffs, he
Speaker 1: turned the phones off, he goes black man iles it. Listen,
Speaker 1: we are witnesses to this nigga hitting the button, going
Speaker 1: to another level. You understand what I'm saying to you.
Speaker 1: So when I saw that and then you faulty one
Speaker 1: still dunking them up on people. Still, Yeah, you're like, bro, Man,
Speaker 1: if I'm Brown, I'm going for it. Fuck it, I'm fine.

Speaker 1: bigs out here throwing that bitch off the backboard to
Speaker 1: a motherfucker mantch was crazy incoming incoming Rookie of the year.
Speaker 1: Who you got, pe Rookie of the year. You're like
Speaker 1: kank Nipple shout to Carnipple. I love with the flag
Speaker 1: flag what you're doing. I love what Cooper was able
Speaker 1: to do this year. I like how you finished off
Speaker 1: the year. I love Kanko Nipple's role and helping Charlotte
Speaker 1: get back into the playoff race. But did you watch
Speaker 1: the marathon this year? The LA was the LA Marathon?
Speaker 1: You see how I ended. Yeah, that's how this rookie
Speaker 1: race is gonna end. Somebody's sitting there chilling thinking they
Speaker 1: won it, and did somebody gonna come by? And Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think Conka Nipple three weeks ago was Rookie of
Speaker 1: the Year. But I think Cooper Flag sealed it up
Speaker 1: at the end with the fifty ball, then came back
Speaker 1: with the forty five ball. He just ended it off
Speaker 1: on a great note. And so I think he gonna
Speaker 1: edge out Conka Nipple. I'm taking Cooper Flag for show
Speaker 1: for show. He been killing. He's saying it like he
Speaker 1: flat out for you just said he was for the
Speaker 1: fifty youngest player ever, with fifty young player ever, with
Speaker 1: show for show. It's for show now. He stamped like
Speaker 1: eight games and came back a fifty piece. It's stamped.
Speaker 1: You didn't see Carnipple doing this, dog stop. You thought
Speaker 1: he was gonna be out here taking Valet tickets, parking
Speaker 1: the cars going through development. No, he called nobody saw
Speaker 1: Carnipple doing none of this dog cool. He broke the
Speaker 1: whole rookie shattered the rookie record, He broke the every
Speaker 1: he he got records to listen. But I like but
Speaker 1: he not. I like, and somebody explained, it's better that
Speaker 1: you know, Cooper Flag is the number one option, and
Speaker 1: he got to deal with being on the sky report
Speaker 1: and to being the priority of the defense of Like
Speaker 1: when we go in the locker room, we get up
Speaker 1: on the look at the board, it's gonna be a
Speaker 1: lot of Cooper flag ship, whereas with Charlotte, it's gonna
Speaker 1: be a lot of Mellow Miller. You know, Brig Bridges
Speaker 1: Nipple gonna be in there. But it's like he's gonna
Speaker 1: be off on the side. He's not gonna be in
Speaker 1: He's gonna be He's gonna be They're gonna write his
Speaker 1: name in black, not in red, so disrespect you know,
Speaker 1: it's a difference. And then he's gonna hit your ass
Speaker 1: in the head. Keep playing with pay for sure, keep
Speaker 1: playing with So I'm taking Cooper to win the I
Speaker 1: already know that when you look back on it and
Speaker 1: you're like, Dawn, you had kan Kan Nipple and yeah,
Speaker 1: Cooper flat it's gotta has gotta go like this, I
Speaker 1: get it right, because what we can't look back and
Speaker 1: say kan Kanepple beat Cooper Flag in the rookie race, right, right, No, listen,
Speaker 1: it's all good. They trying to one that they're gonna
Speaker 1: have to build this up. No one had Knepple doing this,
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. And then you know what, Charlotte
Speaker 1: is still a really good team if you take him
Speaker 1: off there. But he's impacted that team in winning and
Speaker 1: how they win. You know what I'm saying. On both sides,
Speaker 1: you know you gotta play. You know they give an effort.
Speaker 1: But I didn't see kan Kinnepple in none of this.
Speaker 1: I thought edge comb and to come down to be
Speaker 1: edge comb and and and and you know in flat right. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And then I'm watching how you playing. Man, if you
Speaker 1: got your whole team is with Kyrie, you know, is
Speaker 1: he still first option? I can't even tell you who's
Speaker 1: starting on Dallas, That's what I'm saying. I can tell
Speaker 1: you who' starting, but I'm saying I can also see
Speaker 1: how Jason Kidd putting a ball in his hand has
Speaker 1: helped him develop quickly, not just in decision making, but
Speaker 1: IQ learning when attack, learning when to go downhill, learning
Speaker 1: when to go MINDI, learning when to put pressure on bitch.
Speaker 1: You know, like I see his development over this whole thing.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I get it. I see, and then it's
Speaker 1: hard to ignore when a guy goes for fifty or
Speaker 1: goes for forty, you know what I'm saying. So I
Speaker 1: get it. He's showing the range that. Yeah, I'm over
Speaker 1: all the other rookies, but I'm watching consistency and kan
Speaker 1: Ko Nipple has been consistent the whole year. Year me,
Speaker 1: none of us had him and none of this. And
Speaker 1: that's another thing, you feel me. So he exceeded expectations
Speaker 1: to me, Pete, Yeah, so that's the reason I would
Speaker 1: give him that, you know what I'm saying. But I
Speaker 1: also when you look back on it, like damn, you
Speaker 1: can get that caneble over flag and then flat becomes
Speaker 1: you know, like you know, so I understand.
Speaker 3: So ESPN just this thing where it's called a straw
Speaker 3: pole where though uh blindly asked media members that that
Speaker 3: have votes who they think is going to win throughout
Speaker 3: the season, and the latest straw poll for Rookie of
Speaker 3: the Year is Knkinepple is the clear cut.
Speaker 1: It's clear, Yeah, like Cooper flag the better player, Like
Speaker 1: if we out here playing ones and I gotta let
Speaker 1: me get it. Come on, Flat, let's get it like
Speaker 1: you feel me like, hey, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: I'm just being honest. But that ain't That ain't what
Speaker 1: we talking about. We talking about body of work and
Speaker 1: has a great body of work through ship. But I
Speaker 1: get it, I get it. Conkinipple might might make the
Speaker 1: fucking USA team. Bro watch you know, think about that.
Speaker 1: Cooper Flag gonna have to he gonna be on that team,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Yeah, for sure, you take
Speaker 1: a bet on that team like a kd or or
Speaker 1: or or somebody just a couple of years or because
Speaker 1: Tatum and Brown probably gonna be on there right if
Speaker 1: they if they don't deny it, after what happened with them,
Speaker 1: they experience, you can't go back to back like that.
Speaker 1: That that didn't That wasn't a good look for the
Speaker 1: US and all that. It's gonna be interesting though it
Speaker 1: should be Pistons. You know, you got playing teams right
Speaker 1: who are playing teams by the way on the East silt.
Speaker 3: So the playing potentials that the Pistons could play is
Speaker 3: anywhere from the Hawks, the Raptors, the.
Speaker 1: Hornets, Charlotte. Charlotte is the only team you you you
Speaker 1: worried about any upset any upsests with Detroit being number one,
Speaker 1: and those Charlottes are the Atlantas? Are you are you?
Speaker 1: Are you worried about them? You got now? I'm looking
Speaker 1: at the I don't think none of them teams can
Speaker 1: be Detroit. Charlotte put up a lot of points, bro.
Speaker 1: You know, listen about Detroit. They played that. They play defense.
Speaker 1: You know Ray, y'all remember Ray, when you spray the broaches,
Speaker 1: you being the roastie, hit the lights and the roast go.
Speaker 1: You gotta spreading the raid. Just hit that day, everything
Speaker 1: stop or that's how they do you man. When Detroit
Speaker 1: had Ivy, Man, that shit was. That was a buzz
Speaker 1: off where Ivy was up there. They still got that spirit.
Speaker 1: They played deepest with spirit when they switched, you field
Speaker 1: the switch. You feel me. If they can translate that
Speaker 1: into the playoffs, they're gonna be hard to beat. Now
Speaker 1: they come in there with that. Yeah, we number one
Speaker 1: chill ship in La. Give a team some confidence, bro,
Speaker 1: they don't get popped. Bro. I only see one upset
Speaker 1: in the first round. That's probably like up selling me here,
Speaker 1: like probably the next losing to Toronto or Atlanta. You
Speaker 1: think if they got to see one of them. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean that's tough. They ain't like they ain't No,
Speaker 1: they ain't like Nicks, ain't blown nobody out. I mean
Speaker 1: this can get upset by the Raptors or Atlanta. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think if it goes seven, they can get upset
Speaker 1: by one of them in the first round. You think
Speaker 1: the Raptors know how to close out you think you think?
Speaker 1: You think? Uh man, I mean, first off, pull somebody out.
Speaker 1: You just can't. You know what I'm saying. I mean
Speaker 1: they scary, bro Atlanta is scary. Scary because listen, both
Speaker 1: of those teams to come down to lock in. Though
Speaker 1: you know you get the plan, it's different, playoffs different
Speaker 1: when they know your first three, four, five months, just
Speaker 1: give up too much points they're supposed to be. Ay,
Speaker 1: they are better defensive Union now since the second half Atlanta. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they are. And they playing together too. Yeah, playing together,
Speaker 1: That's what I like about it. They're gonna be tough.
Speaker 1: So you got your first So your sleeper, your your
Speaker 1: sleeper is is the Raptors knocking off the Knicks. The
Speaker 1: Raptors are Atlanta. Whatever one of them teams match up
Speaker 1: with at New York, Bye Bye New York. Well, you
Speaker 1: just ow some Nicks hater ship. I ain't gonna start
Speaker 1: this with you, bro, get the fuck out and that
Speaker 1: that that that ain't really that ain't really out of
Speaker 1: that second responsible by truth and love. No, I'm saying,
Speaker 1: but that ain't like you act like New York is
Speaker 1: a clear cut favorite cut. But if you saying that
Speaker 1: the Cleveland kid get popped, you know what I'm talking about. Like,
Speaker 1: I think Cleveland better harden over them. They got a
Speaker 1: better playoff experience. No, I don't think they're gonna lose
Speaker 1: first round. I think they're gonna go to the conference finals, Cleveland,
Speaker 1: Cleveland's gonna be. They're gonna play the Celtics. That's not
Speaker 1: who I'm playing, the Celtis in the conference finals. Really, Yeah,
Speaker 1: you think they go through? You think they can beat
Speaker 1: the Knicks. I think they could be. I think they
Speaker 1: could be Detroit Detroit in the second round. That's what
Speaker 1: they're gonna have to play the Detroit. They need k
Speaker 1: But I think they can be.
Speaker 2: Ramping up and he'll he'll be, he'll be ready to
Speaker 2: go for playoffs most likely.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I gotta see that. I don't I don't want
Speaker 1: to be bothering Get out of here. They're turning this
Speaker 1: damn light on. Get out, yes, sir, and we are
