Speaker 1: rapid fire fun because we are turning this into the drop.

28
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 1: But yes, we have an NBA Cup date had some

29
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 1: fun games last night in the NBA Cup. Let's start

30
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:43,200
Speaker 1: with elprin she Goon recording a triple double as the

31
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 1: Rockets beat the Wolves one seventeen, one eleven in overtime

32
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,880
Speaker 1: to clinch West Group A. The Rockets are moving on

33
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 1: to the quarterfinals and really entertaining game and get the

34
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 1: winn Ot tests.

35
00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, it didn't start as a big shen gun game.

36
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 3: He only had two points in the first half and

37
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 3: it was a really close game. In the second quarter

38
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 3: when the Wolves just started turning it over and over

39
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 3: and over, it was a sloppy Joe for them. Mike

40
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 3: Conley was missed as it was like back to back

41
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,920
Speaker 3: to back possessions almost that all three guys turned it

42
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 3: over and his toe needs to heal. Mike Conley Hope

43
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 3: that toe gets better soon. He's got a sprain toe.

44
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,360
Speaker 3: Turf yeah, turf toe. So anyway, he turned into a

45
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,240
Speaker 3: double digit deficit going into a third quarter, and it

46
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 3: continued for the Minnesota Timberwolves. They got down eighteen points.

47
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,080
Speaker 3: They were getting booed off their own floor as they

48
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,800
Speaker 3: went to a timeout, and they needed Rob Dillingham. That

49
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,079
Speaker 3: kid came in, the nineteen year old and really did

50
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 3: help out. I mean, he hit a three to spark

51
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 3: the turnout, to spark the comeback, and he missed a

52
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:44,920
Speaker 3: couple and he was a little sloppy and he turned

53
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:45,679
Speaker 3: one over a year.

54
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 1: It was like a nineteen year old in the NBA.

55
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 3: He did. Yeah, coming off that big game where he

56
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,960
Speaker 3: was replacing Mike Conley in terms of the rotation minutes

57
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 3: against Boston, that was by far his best game in

58
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 3: the last game, this one. He looked so fast and

59
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 3: so quick, like he was blown by Van Vleet in

60
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 3: that third quarter. In the fourth quarter setting up Rudy Gobert,

61
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,799
Speaker 3: he was looking fantastic. Jim Peterson on the Wolves broadcast said,

62
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 3: he looks like Rod Strickland out there. He reminded him

63
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 3: a little jittery.

64
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:12,639
Speaker 1: Yeah.

65
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 3: Yeah. The New York City point guard type of mentality.

66
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,800
Speaker 3: But it was so wild in that he was doing

67
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 3: his thing and the Rockets they missed a ton of

68
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 3: shots at the end of the fourth quarter. They went

69
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:24,919
Speaker 3: to to fourteen to end the fourth quarter, so went

70
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 3: into overtime when Shan Goud, Yeah, did continue to give

71
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,640
Speaker 3: it to Rudy Gobert. Now he'd scored on Rudy Gobert

72
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 3: every single one of his buckets. Seven of them were

73
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 3: like right at your face type of thing, and a

74
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 3: couple of them were picking roll opportunities. But he hit

75
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 3: that hook and he did the too small on Rudy

76
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 3: Gobert after hitting a hook. You don't really see that

77
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 3: too often in NBA history. I don't think that's ever

78
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 3: been done. I'm gonna hit a hooking over you and yeah,

79
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 3: and the Timber Bowls just went extremely quiet, really missing

80
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 3: Mike Cautley. I do think his help. And it's been

81
00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 3: a roller coaster a season for the Minnesota Timber Bowls.

82
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 3: But the Houston Rocket's just continued to fight. They said,

83
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 3: Jalen Green, sit for overtime and sit for most of

84
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 3: the fourth quarter. We're going with the men. Thompson and

85
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 3: he helped out a lot, so they got it done.

86
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 1: We have our NBA Cup Cinderella. I believe in the

87
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 1: Houston Rockets there's some similarities not how they play, but

88
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,599
Speaker 1: to the Pacers of last year making the knockout round,

89
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 1: going deep, you know, just being a young team coming

90
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,239
Speaker 1: off a lottery position, even though they had a decent

91
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:25,280
Speaker 1: record in the West the Rockets did last year, and

92
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 1: just to get experience I think is huge here Trey Again,

93
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 1: for some of their young guys. You look at their roster,

94
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 1: only three of their top nine guys in the rotation

95
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 1: have ever played in playoff games. Van Vliet, Dylan Brooks,

96
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,279
Speaker 1: and then Jock Landella a little bit. Everyone else is

97
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,839
Speaker 1: like under the age of twenty three and has generally

98
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 1: played for the Rockets. Yeah, who have been you know,

99
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,920
Speaker 1: bad besides last year where they improved a whole lot.

100
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,479
Speaker 1: So this I think is awesome for them to just

101
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,919
Speaker 1: get into these like high stakes games and sort of

102
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 1: get the some some reps of sort of.

103
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,719
Speaker 2: Playoff like you exactly, this was as close as you

104
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 2: can get to a playoff feel, I think with it

105
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:01,720
Speaker 2: being the regular season because of the Cup. I mean

106
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,559
Speaker 2: you look at literally just the rotations. The Rockets played

107
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 2: nine guys and that includes Reed Shepherd, who only played

108
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 2: nine minutes. The Wolves played eight guys, including Rob Dillingham,

109
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 2: who I also thought was awesome. Wolves are zero and

110
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,039
Speaker 2: four without calmly, But yeah, I thought the veterans really

111
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,479
Speaker 2: showed up in this game for the Rockets, like Dylan

112
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 2: Brooks had an awesome game, twenty two points, hit four threes,

113
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 2: Fred van Vliet twenty seven points, eleven assists, hit the

114
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 2: big three off of Dillingham rookie mistake he made two

115
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:29,599
Speaker 2: back to back, got yanked right at the end of

116
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 2: the fourth quarter, but otherwise he played awesome. It was weird, though,

117
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 2: to see the Rockets look like the team that the

118
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:39,600
Speaker 2: Timberwolves were last year. Twenty one stocks last night for

119
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 2: the Rockets, just ten for Minnesota. The Rockets for seventeen turnovers.

120
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 2: They looked like the athletic defensive juggernaut sort of team.

121
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,280
Speaker 2: And that, like you're saying, Skeets, it's not the same

122
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 2: as the Pacers. They were offensively toted. Yeah, but the

123
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 2: defense that the Rockets bring is kind of next level.

124
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 2: They're playing really well. Shane Dune's blocking dunks at the

125
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 2: rim right now, he's improved his rim protection. I think

126
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,359
Speaker 2: winning the Cup, competing for the Cup would be a

127
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,200
Speaker 2: real achievement for the Rockets. And look, the Pacers rode

128
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 2: that success to a conference finals.

129
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 1: Things broke the right way.

130
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 2: They traded for Siakam. Things definitely changed, but it was

131
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 2: a good season, uh for the Pacers, and it started

132
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:20,919
Speaker 2: early with playing well in the Cup. And the Rockets

133
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 2: are doing the same.

134
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,280
Speaker 1: Yeah for sure. I also, I mean, I already like

135
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,720
Speaker 1: this kid, but I'm falling in love after every game

136
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 1: with Amen Thompson. He is so damn fun to watch.

137
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 1: The guy is like rocket fuel out there. He is

138
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 1: so fast. He had I thought maybe the play of

139
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 1: the game in regulation where Minnesota is up too there's

140
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 1: like forty five seconds left and he just picked Dillingham's

141
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:46,800
Speaker 1: pocket and then went coast to coast like beat everybody

142
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,160
Speaker 1: the other way, laid it in that tied it up,

143
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 1: and then he hit a corner three in overtime a

144
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,479
Speaker 1: part of that Rocket's like eleven zero run where shng

145
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 1: gun was doing a lot of the work, but it

146
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 1: did get swung to Aman Thompson in the corner and

147
00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 1: he hit it, and this is I mean, that's the

148
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,920
Speaker 1: one thing he can't do. We can't really shoot threes.

149
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:05,840
Speaker 1: I think he's only hit like five threes combined all season,

150
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 1: but knocked that one down with some confidence. I just

151
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 1: I think he's just so fun to watch it.

152
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're lucky that men Thompson was able to get

153
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 3: that steel with forty five seconds left, because, as I said,

154
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,440
Speaker 3: they finished the fourth quarter two of fourteen. That was

155
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:19,239
Speaker 3: one of them, which was a layup, and then Fred

156
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 3: hit one shot, but they hit they missed a shots. Yeah,

157
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 3: and so Jayalen Green was sitting on the bench and

158
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 3: maybe Dooka said Men Thompson, you're gonna play those minutes.

159
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 3: And he obviously helps out when he's out there. That's

160
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 3: why him and Tarry Easan off the bench are called

161
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 3: the Terror twins because they're so good defensively. Mentioned those

162
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 3: stocks numbers. They are tough to play. It's hard not

163
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 3: to get excited to watch them because they're this young team,

164
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 3: this up the coming team as basketball fans. But it's

165
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 3: also hard not to think about them in the NBA Cup.

166
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 3: It's gonna be fun. Yes, this is their playoffs. There's

167
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 3: no doubt about that. Adam Silver, you did it. We've a.

168
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 1: Game, but you got it with this hard at the

169
00:07:59,480 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 1: end of them.

170
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 2: I love it. Six threes on the season from Men Thompson.

171
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, okay, hey man, he only made eight last season. Yeah,

172
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 2: even knockdown shooter. There's a reason he closes for Jalen Green.

173
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 2: He's not going to take bad shots and he's going

174
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 2: to bring it defensively. He might be the best athlete

175
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 2: in the NBA.

176
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 1: Oh, I think you're right. I can't believe a fastiest

177
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 1: so quick for a guy that's six seven, like, he's not.

178
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 1: He's not a tiny little jitterbug that are like though

179
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 1: usually the fast guys. He's big. He's like Usain Bolt

180
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 1: sort of sigh. I think they say Bolt sixty five,

181
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:30,720
Speaker 1: but he is so quick in transition. I guess the

182
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:32,839
Speaker 1: other winner of the Rockets winning Group A is the

183
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:36,960
Speaker 1: Dallas Mavericks because the Warriors have moved on as Group

184
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:40,440
Speaker 1: C winners second place MAVs. There's they're they're in pole

185
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 1: position here for the WES wildcard spot. As long as

186
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 1: they can beat Memphis on December third. They're very likely

187
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 1: going on because they got a plus forty one point

188
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 1: differential thanks to crushing the Pelicans. That was a big

189
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 1: part of it. I think that was even the game

190
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 1: where Jason Kidd was like took the foot off the

191
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 1: gasolo basic, like Okay, I know we're supposed to run

192
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,120
Speaker 1: up the scores here, but like this is embarrassing. You

193
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 1: have anybody, so good news for them. Anything else on

194
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 1: on the Rockets win there against the Wolf's huge game.

195
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 1: When it came to our Pickham game.

196
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:09,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was a great game.

197
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,679
Speaker 2: High level game Test touched on it though. Though the

198
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,719
Speaker 2: Wolves are definitely missing Mike Conley. I mentioned oh and

199
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,480
Speaker 2: four with him out of the lineup because Anthony Edwards

200
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 2: Dante DiVincenzo, they are not point guards. Forty three minutes

201
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 2: for Aunt last night, one assist, three turnovers. Dante DiVincenzo

202
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:29,559
Speaker 2: twenty one minutes, three assists, three turnovers. Isn't shooting the

203
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,599
Speaker 2: ball well either. Ant was kind of going crazy. I

204
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 2: thought in fourth quarter and overtime he went over eight.

205
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,319
Speaker 2: The shot selection was not great, which is why Dillingham

206
00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:39,599
Speaker 2: making those plays in the fourth quarter, getting in the

207
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 2: lane either for a floater or finding somebody for a lob.

208
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 2: They just need somebody who is going to distribute the

209
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,080
Speaker 2: ball a little bit so I think Dillingham is showing

210
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:50,760
Speaker 2: he should be playing a little bit here while Mike

211
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,160
Speaker 2: Conley is out, just because it seems like he's happy

212
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 2: to get the ball where it needs to go and

213
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 2: then take a back seat. I don't know if that's

214
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,280
Speaker 2: necessarily the case with other guys they might be playing there.

215
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,520
Speaker 2: My other thing I wrote down that this was an

216
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 2: Ecdo cooler court. Oh yeah, But then I was like,

217
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 2: that's a forty year old reference, so like a Wicked.

218
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 3: Court, Well, that's very modern.

219
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I guess Wicked their whole branding is

220
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 1: the green with the pink, right, Yeah? They together? Yeah? Yeah,

221
00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 1: but what do you think of it?

222
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 2: You like it?

223
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:22,679
Speaker 1: The Green Wolves and Cup No?

224
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,200
Speaker 2: I thought, I thought we're gonna talk about three games

225
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:31,360
Speaker 2: here for the most part. Brutal courts. Brutal courts. Victor

226
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 2: Solomon cannot cook. Yeah, I'm out of the kitchen tomorrow.

227
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 1: I mean, any of the yellow courts are pretty wild. Yeah. Well,

228
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,680
Speaker 1: let's move to the to the Sun's crushing the Lakers

229
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 1: to create a wide open race in West Group B,

230
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,439
Speaker 1: and they got some guys back task in Kevin Durant

231
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 1: and Bradley Beal, and it turns out when they play

232
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,319
Speaker 1: the Sons are really good. They're nine and one when

233
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 1: Durant's in there, and they're ten and two with Bill

234
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 1: in the mix, and you know, just helps out Booker

235
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,800
Speaker 1: and I honestly, Nurkic was big in the third quarter

236
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,079
Speaker 1: there started that third court started the second half with

237
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:06,079
Speaker 1: a I want to say, a ten oh run and

238
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,079
Speaker 1: then Booker went on his own eleven oh run and

239
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 1: that blew the game open. But your thoughts here on

240
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:10,679
Speaker 1: the suns.

241
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 3: It really was as simple as Durant and Bale coming

242
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 3: back for those guys. Duran has been out seven games,

243
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,199
Speaker 3: have gone one in six in those seven games, and

244
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 3: Bill coming back as well. And maybe he's figured out

245
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 3: how to get healthy because Bradley Beal said, quote told

246
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,720
Speaker 3: her man Doug Holly said, if you're negative, your body

247
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:28,199
Speaker 3: is not going to heal, it's not going to respond properly.

248
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,599
Speaker 3: Just taking care of your mind, man, your mind is

249
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 3: very powerful. Wow, that's it. Now he is gonna be

250
00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:33,960
Speaker 3: healthy for the rest of his career.

251
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 2: I healed himself as I get I guess.

252
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 3: So those two guys just being in the floor and

253
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 3: giving each other the breaks on possession. Yeah, Hello, Brad

254
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:47,679
Speaker 3: Devin Booker is going to hit shot after shot after

255
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:49,599
Speaker 3: shot because the other guys are getting the attention, and

256
00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:52,400
Speaker 3: because they have a point guard this year in Tyres Jones,

257
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 3: so it should be different than what they did against

258
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,319
Speaker 3: the Minnesota Timberwolves last year in the playoffs. This is

259
00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 3: as simple as that. But I think use of Nurkic

260
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 3: was awesome in that thirty He was and the Lakers

261
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:07,040
Speaker 3: are desperate for some some sort of defensive recipe. I know,

262
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 3: I get made fun of Gabe Vincent, but even to

263
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 3: take it another step further, they're missing Jared Vanderbilt so much,

264
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 3: just that type of mentality to to bring some sort.

265
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 1: Of scratch, any sort of perimeter defense.

266
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's he's really the guy. That's that's their problem.

267
00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 2: Well, the problem also is that if those guys play.

268
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 2: I mean, Vanderbilt hasn't been healthy for two years fields

269
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 2: but Gae Vincent scored like thirty points in November.

270
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, there's he's got a way.

271
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:32,920
Speaker 2: They don't have two way guys.

272
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 3: Yes, Jared could be that guy, but no he can't.

273
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,640
Speaker 3: They've both been injured, that's for sure. And yeah, Jared Verdan,

274
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:42,920
Speaker 3: he has to be just like a Men toms He

275
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 3: ain't a Men Thompson, but he has to just be

276
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,559
Speaker 3: a cutter and he can be that and an offensive

277
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:49,599
Speaker 3: rebounder and just the guy doesn't need the ball in

278
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 3: his hands ever. And I think he can't be that

279
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 3: guy when he's healthy. I mean, that's the last the

280
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:57,280
Speaker 3: last times we have seen Jared Ronda. But it's been

281
00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 3: a long time. There's no doubt about that, and so

282
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:00,679
Speaker 3: he was good once more time. Can he be that

283
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 3: guy again? But that's what the Lakers are missing. I mean,

284
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,719
Speaker 3: you can see every team go out Austin Reeves over

285
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 3: and over and over again, and they were doing that

286
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 3: in this game, and it happens. You need more defenders,

287
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:13,520
Speaker 3: and that's that's a problem.

288
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 1: The Phoenix is big three, I guess of Katie Booker

289
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,440
Speaker 1: Beal combined for seventy two points twenty nine to forty

290
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 1: nine shooting, and they did not take their foot off

291
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:24,319
Speaker 1: the gas in the closing minutes of this game. It

292
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 1: kept the starters out on the floor. They tried to

293
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 1: pad the lead as much as possible because the Suns

294
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,240
Speaker 1: and you can put it up here. JD moved into

295
00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 1: a three way tie with the Lakers and the Spurs

296
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 1: a top group b here in the West. Now, ok see,

297
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 1: they've only played two games. They're in the mix as well.

298
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:42,439
Speaker 1: This is a wide open group, is what I'm getting

299
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:45,679
Speaker 1: out here. Besides the Jazz obviously eliminated the Lakers in

300
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:49,679
Speaker 1: thunder play Friday. Losers out that much, we know, so

301
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 1: whoever loses that game on Friday between OKC and LA

302
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 1: they gon't. But yeah, this is a fun group here,

303
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:57,439
Speaker 1: and it could get a little it's gonna get a

304
00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,840
Speaker 1: little messy. Any thoughts on this group?

305
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:01,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, looks like a good group.

306
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 1: Really thought this was going to be a good one,

307
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 1: and you know it has been a good one so far.

308
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:06,320
Speaker 1: But uh yeah, the.

309
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:09,080
Speaker 2: Suns, if they have their three guys healthy, they're very

310
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:10,840
Speaker 2: tough to beat. You get seventy two points from them,

311
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:14,320
Speaker 2: thirty five points from the bench. That's probably a perfect

312
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 2: recipe for winning. They beat the Lakers literally everywhere in

313
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 2: this one. They outscored him on the bench, they beat

314
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 2: him on the glass. They were better defensively as well.

315
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 2: The Lakers have to play awesome offensively because they cannot

316
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 2: stop anybody on defense. They're twenty ninth and fast break

317
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 2: points allowed in twenty seventh in points in the paint,

318
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 2: and they have Anthony Davis, who was an awesome defender.

319
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 2: I thought Lebron looked very old in this game. Bradley

320
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 2: Beale got him on a chase down his dunks are

321
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 2: barely getting.

322
00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:41,120
Speaker 3: Over the rim.

323
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that was wild to see Beale doing the

324
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 1: chase down block on Lebron. It was like Roles reversed there. Yeah,

325
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 1: maybe Lebron doesn't want to defend the cup here, wouldn't

326
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:55,040
Speaker 1: mine not, you know, taking the trip to Vegas, which

327
00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 1: would upset all those you know, the NBA and people

328
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 1: to sell tickets the Lakers. Well they got the Warriors

329
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 1: maybe moving on, but they would prefer the Lakers to

330
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:05,880
Speaker 1: also be in the mix again too, to sell those

331
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 1: games on Saturday tests.

332
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 3: Oh, there's no doubt. Yeah, there's no doubt we would

333
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 3: be seeing as we go to Las Vegas. Lots of

334
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 3: people coming from La like we have in summer, really

335
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 3: get Vegas for sure. You mentioned the bench there as

336
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 3: the Suns beat them. Great sign when those big guys

337
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:25,119
Speaker 3: come back, that these guys who have been better than expected.

338
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 3: And Ryan Dunn as a rook also, Igudaro has chipped

339
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:32,680
Speaker 3: in this scene looks deep all of a sudden, and they.

340
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 1: Got some reps there with guys missing time.

341
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, they did plenty of Yeah, and we did not

342
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,720
Speaker 3: expect it after last season. What are they going to do.

343
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 3: They're paying their guys up there so much money, so

344
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 3: top heavy, but they're fine with bringing Grayson Dallen off

345
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:48,480
Speaker 3: the bench out. Yeah, there's just so much deeper now

346
00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 3: because these guys perform. Those that done and Ingudaro are

347
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 3: both surprises this year. But they have been really good

348
00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 3: for sure.

349
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 1: All right, let's move to the final game of note. Really,

350
00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 1: Damian Lillard scored thirty seven as the yannest. This Bucks

351
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,200
Speaker 1: held off the Heat to move to three and ohero

352
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 1: in East Group B. Now, they did waste a twenty

353
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 1: two point lead. I guess they're trey that they gave

354
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 1: it all back and it was a tie game to

355
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 1: the Heat, but they got it done in the end

356
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,280
Speaker 1: one six, one oh three and Dame was pretty spectacular

357
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,240
Speaker 1: thirty seven points, twelve assists until the point where Miami

358
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 1: was just running two or three guys out him. Hey,

359
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 1: anybody else beat us? And the Milwaukee did enough at

360
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 1: the stretch.

361
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, they got the lead and they blew it right

362
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 2: quick a quick turnaround, for sure, but Lillard is obviously

363
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,400
Speaker 2: comfortable playing in a spread, pick and roll system, so

364
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 2: they were doing it all night. That's why he finishes

365
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 2: with thirty seven points twelve assists. And I actually thought

366
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 2: Andre Jackson was pretty solid in this game, but we

367
00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 2: didn't put up a crazy stat line. He finished with

368
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 2: one assist, which I thought was crazy. I thought he

369
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 2: would have like a million secondary assists. But I guess

370
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,640
Speaker 2: the ball was just moving too well for the Bucks

371
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:54,920
Speaker 2: last night, because they, like you said, it would either

372
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 2: be Lillard would actually use the pick and roll. It

373
00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 2: would be effective. They would get it to Jackson, he

374
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:02,000
Speaker 2: would spray to somebody in the or they would double

375
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:03,840
Speaker 2: Lillard and then Jackson would have to make a play.

376
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:05,920
Speaker 2: I thought he was pretty solid. I thought AJ Green

377
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:09,119
Speaker 2: made some big shots in this one. Two huge threes

378
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:12,320
Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter. The heat had cut the lead

379
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 2: to one three from AJ Green. He cut the lead

380
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 2: to one three from AJ Green. Then he almost had

381
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:21,440
Speaker 2: another one that came just a smidge after the shot clock.

382
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 2: If Zach Lowe was still writing, this guy would be

383
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 2: a guaranteed Luke Walton Allstar. Oh facts, he's been helpful

384
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 2: him playing more, Andre Jackson playing more, basically sitting Pat

385
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:34,760
Speaker 2: Connaton down, though he had a pretty solid run. I

386
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,399
Speaker 2: thought in this one as well, that's really helped out

387
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:39,680
Speaker 2: the Bucks. They're also getting Chris Middleton back and not

388
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 2: too long. Apparently he's playing five on five now. I

389
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,680
Speaker 2: thought this was a hilarious quote that Eric Name got

390
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 2: from Doc Rivers. Doc said about Chris Middleton, I don't

391
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:50,320
Speaker 2: know if it's a step forward or a step that

392
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 2: we planned three on three four on four. We've been

393
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 2: doing four on four full court for a week, so

394
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 2: I don't know what the difference is. We added a guy,

395
00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,119
Speaker 2: so I wouldn't make that big of a deal out

396
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 2: of it. It's like, who, I don't know another guy

397
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,240
Speaker 2: out there playing right now. But Middleton'll be back in

398
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:09,600
Speaker 2: a little bit. The Bucks are five hundred again. Yeah,

399
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:11,640
Speaker 2: it turns out playing the guys who can run fast

400
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:13,160
Speaker 2: has been helpful for this team.

401
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 1: Yeah.

402
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 3: I guess Doc, just getting this information from from other

403
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,480
Speaker 3: people is throwing them off. Like somebody said, hey, you're

404
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,560
Speaker 3: heard Giannis is not playing. He's like, oh man, what

405
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,240
Speaker 3: am I supposed to do it? I think bumped he

406
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:28,920
Speaker 3: had no idea and then yeah, Damian Lillard takes the

407
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 3: floor and just starts bombing to start this game. It

408
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,880
Speaker 3: was one on five. It was flashback to Portland days.

409
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 3: I don't got to think about anybody on my teammates.

410
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:40,240
Speaker 3: And he was Yeah, he was fantastic. He had five

411
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:42,399
Speaker 3: shots in the firstcore, four than three six threes by

412
00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:44,679
Speaker 3: half and he started to slow down a little bit.

413
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 3: But yeah, aj Green hitting some mantra shots there.

414
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 1: Especially that second three, because the first one was you know,

415
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:52,960
Speaker 1: it was a quick trigger three from the corner. But

416
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:54,840
Speaker 1: then the second one after the heatd cut it to

417
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,080
Speaker 1: one again, was he sort of like got handed a

418
00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 1: grenade a little bit. I know there's a little bit

419
00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,040
Speaker 1: of Tom o'clock, but he had to but he dribbled. Yeah,

420
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 1: it was like whoa, it was a big shot. Yeah,

421
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 1: and then he nearly had the other one that was

422
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:06,480
Speaker 1: just after the shot clock.

423
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 3: Yeah. It was a weird ending there to see Andre

424
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,159
Speaker 3: Jackson forty seconds left and this team that bad turnle.

425
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: There was there was no hole. He saw somebody cutting

426
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,160
Speaker 1: and it was like three heat guys in the way.

427
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 3: I'm good Vince doc is taking him off the starting

428
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:28,359
Speaker 3: line up, out of starting line Jackson hasn't played as

429
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 3: well as Storyan Prince. I'm surprised. But Torrian Prince, I

430
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 3: think is going to be the guy beside Dame Chris Middleton,

431
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 3: Brook and Giannis because he has played extremely well. And

432
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 3: even though Jackson awesome stuff.

433
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:41,800
Speaker 1: Yeah he does. He does good things and he does

434
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:42,480
Speaker 1: very bad things.

435
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:43,920
Speaker 3: You just can't shoot the ball. He had a huge

436
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:47,080
Speaker 3: block in this game. But you saw, speaking of blocks,

437
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 3: that Brook Lopez block on Tyler Hero at the three

438
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 3: point line. Yeah. What the guy doing some great stuff

439
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:56,119
Speaker 3: and he were making this a fun game. But the

440
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 3: most thing, the biggest thing I'm sad about is that

441
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,960
Speaker 3: Yambo ain't going to be celebrate his birthday in Vegas

442
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,159
Speaker 3: like he did last year. Last year he got to

443
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,000
Speaker 3: go to the NBA Cup. It was called the end

444
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:06,880
Speaker 3: season tournament. I can't call it the NBA Cup, I guess,

445
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 3: but he went and he celebrated. He didn't party or anything.

446
00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 3: It was his twenty ninth birthday, he said, he just

447
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 3: hang out with his basketball team. But this is his

448
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:17,440
Speaker 3: thirtieth birthday will not be in Las Vegas because they're

449
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:19,640
Speaker 3: pushing this skate at this tournament back a week.

450
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:22,680
Speaker 1: Bucks are looking good to make the knucket. Yeah, I

451
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,440
Speaker 1: mean they have to beat Detroit next Tuesday and they're through.

452
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:27,520
Speaker 3: But we could have joined him. We could have been

453
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 3: hanging with the outside of the coup. I'm just inviting

454
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:31,560
Speaker 3: myself shot of Uzo, but it didin't happen.

455
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 2: He'll be in Boston for his birthday.

456
00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:34,920
Speaker 3: Interesting, he ain't doing nothing.

457
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:36,520
Speaker 2: I think it was Brooky.

458
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 1: I think it was Broo Kelly brook Lopez that also

459
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,200
Speaker 1: challenged that final shot from Hero at the end too,

460
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 1: if I remember correctly, because that thing just rimmed in

461
00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:49,440
Speaker 1: and out. I mean, here goes a decent look at it,

462
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:51,920
Speaker 1: but brook was putting his big giant paw out there.

463
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 1: But yeah, Milwaukee extended its winning streak to five games.

464
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,520
Speaker 1: They've won seven of their past eight, and they're back

465
00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:01,760
Speaker 1: to five hundred nine and nine, sitting pretty in the

466
00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:05,480
Speaker 1: Eastern Conference. You're sitting pretty after they started two and

467
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,040
Speaker 1: eight and then the other games last night. Your Bulls

468
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:13,640
Speaker 1: still technically alive to advance. I think the group, well, well,

469
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,120
Speaker 1: is that technically true. I'm not sure.

470
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,639
Speaker 2: In the point of screenshot Tom Poro.

471
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,159
Speaker 1: That might be because he's a Bulls fan. I don't know,

472
00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:24,640
Speaker 1: but yeah, they are they're still in it. And because

473
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:25,919
Speaker 1: they beat the Wizards.

474
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:27,720
Speaker 3: Their first okay, good plus fifteen.

475
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:28,840
Speaker 1: Oh, that's a Wizard.

476
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 2: You're getting some good points differential.

477
00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, one twenty seven, one eight, they beat them. Vuccie

478
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:34,439
Speaker 1: baby Kobe White doing his thing.

479
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:34,919
Speaker 3: Uh.

480
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,639
Speaker 1: The Wizards have lost twelve straight. I mean at some

481
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 1: point we might start talking about, Wow, are they gonna

482
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 1: beat the Pistons? Uh, all time losing streak from last year.

483
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,040
Speaker 1: I mean, it's too early to really get into that,

484
00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,680
Speaker 1: but they are a bad team anyway. Chicago's win means

485
00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:50,440
Speaker 1: the Bulls, Calves and Hawks could potentially still win group. See.

486
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 1: It all depends on Friday's two games. Celtics in Chicago,

487
00:21:54,920 --> 00:22:01,440
Speaker 1: Calves in Atlanta. Yeah here here afternoon game two thirty two. Yeah,

488
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 1: I think it might. There's a big There might be

489
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,199
Speaker 1: a Georgia game on that Friday, I think too.

490
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:11,560
Speaker 3: So they're thinking ahead anyway, basketball game, no, no football.

491
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 2: George is playing Georgia Tech this late in the season.

492
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:16,920
Speaker 1: It's a rifle game. Many Georgia Tech's going to spoil

493
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:20,800
Speaker 1: their season. Man, probably not spoil. And then when Yama

494
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:23,400
Speaker 1: Castle led the Spurs to a big win over the Jazz,

495
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:25,000
Speaker 1: like we talked about, there are slipped in there that

496
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 1: they are still you know, they're two and one decent record.

497
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:28,879
Speaker 1: The big news from I was Larry markt and being

498
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:32,359
Speaker 1: helped off the floor bang knees with Wemby did that

499
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,879
Speaker 1: boney ass knee from him? I think I have bony knees.

500
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:40,400
Speaker 1: Imagine these are like, yeah, like razor blades. But Mark

501
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 1: who went down? So you know, I mean, the Jazz

502
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:44,680
Speaker 1: have a bad record as it is, and if he

503
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:46,840
Speaker 1: misses even more time here, it's not going to help

504
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,240
Speaker 1: their chances to sort of get back into the mix.

505
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,160
Speaker 1: Any other thoughts from last night's NBA Cup.

506
00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:59,000
Speaker 3: You're into, Yes, I mean it's helped. We know eighty

507
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:02,680
Speaker 3: two games is too long, but Adam Silver has done

508
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:05,680
Speaker 3: a good job at incentivizing November basketball.

509
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 1: Okay, I got an idea NBA Cup every month, cup

510
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:14,760
Speaker 1: every month, different rules. Hey, Victor, Victor, get to work.

511
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 1: We need one hundred new courts, no.

512
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:22,560
Speaker 2: Problem, he says. We've done lines, We've done circles, triangles.

513
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 1: Okay, let's get it.

514
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:27,080
Speaker 2: So looks like that's all folks.

515
00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:27,520
Speaker 1: Yah.

516
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 2: The court looks like like they were literally just playing

517
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:31,640
Speaker 2: on the sun.

518
00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:36,639
Speaker 1: And then the Bulls. Where was that? That was a

519
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:37,080
Speaker 1: red court?

520
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:37,880
Speaker 3: Though red?

521
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 1: I hate the red. I hate the yellow. The snot green,

522
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:41,920
Speaker 1: not good.

523
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 3: It was not that bad?

524
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:47,280
Speaker 1: Which one the yellow? Yeah? Well the yellow is brutal

525
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,520
Speaker 1: to watch. I think my least favorite. Just like so,

526
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 1: like I gotta wear sunglasses to watch.

527
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:57,439
Speaker 3: Southish greens and blues are way worse brutal.

528
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:00,800
Speaker 1: I guess I'll be seeing. I'm hoping to go to

529
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,159
Speaker 1: the Hawks game on Friday, and they got a they

530
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 1: got the yellow cord. That's a copper Yeah, that's an

531
00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:08,639
Speaker 1: NBA cook game Friday. All right, a few Thanksgiving themed

532
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 1: NBA questions for you guys and everybody in the stream

533
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:14,400
Speaker 1: team and everybody listening later. Some of these were such

534
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:16,360
Speaker 1: a big hit last year we had to run them back.

535
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:21,600
Speaker 3: I think this is a third time. Yeah, I did

536
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,120
Speaker 3: some Look, I did some looking at that this first question.

537
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:28,200
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, you might be right. Well they're that good.

538
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:32,600
Speaker 1: These Thanksgiving themed questions are that I agree tradition. Uh

539
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 1: first one, then task you gotta started? Which NBA player

540
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:39,960
Speaker 1: is Cranberry Sauce? What do I mean by that? You

541
00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 1: know a player that's reliable like Cranberry Sauce. Surprisingly, still

542
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 1: around like Cranberry Sauce, squarely meeting expectations like Cranberry Sauce

543
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:54,560
Speaker 1: might do for you and Thanksgiving. Yeah, that's what we're

544
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:56,720
Speaker 1: looking for. Who's the NBA player that's Cranberry Sauce to you.

545
00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:59,680
Speaker 3: I'm going from a different answer that I had that

546
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 3: I the last couple of years. Even though they still apply.

547
00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 3: I gotta be honest, they still apply. Okay, we'll get

548
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,760
Speaker 3: to them. But I think Al Horford. I know he's

549
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,720
Speaker 3: too damn good to be Cranberry Sauce, but I don't care.

550
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,879
Speaker 3: He is old. The man is the seventh oldest player

551
00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:16,320
Speaker 3: in the NBA, but he's playing like you know, he's

552
00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:18,560
Speaker 3: top two or top three. It's Lebron and Chris Paul

553
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,120
Speaker 3: are really good, but Al Horford is with those guys.

554
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 3: He's too good to be on this list, I would say.

555
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:25,840
Speaker 3: But it seemed like years ago when he was with Okay,

556
00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,320
Speaker 3: see that this might be the end of Al Horford. Sure,

557
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:30,520
Speaker 3: this and that might not be going great, but people

558
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 3: don't care about him like they don't care about Cranberry Sauce.

559
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:35,359
Speaker 3: I thing aren't mentioning him because he finished those OKA

560
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:39,199
Speaker 3: see second half where he was wasn't playing all that much,

561
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 3: and he goes to Boston and he's been incredible. He's

562
00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:44,800
Speaker 3: shooting forty five percent from three this season, which comes

563
00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 3: off of forty two percent season from three, which comes

564
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 3: off of forty five percent season from three. He is

565
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:53,000
Speaker 3: ridiculously good. I mean after okay, so he got some

566
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:56,400
Speaker 3: Defensive Player of the Year votes the first year in Boston.

567
00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 3: That's how good he is. He's tracking guys like Dari

568
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:02,840
Speaker 3: Garland when they played the Cavs thirty feet away from

569
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:05,320
Speaker 3: the bucket and able to hang with him and block

570
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,800
Speaker 3: his ass. This guy, we saw him at the White House,

571
00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:12,320
Speaker 3: and I was surprised to see that he can move

572
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:14,399
Speaker 3: that fast. I'm only a few years older than him.

573
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:17,800
Speaker 3: He just inspired me to go get walking fast. Yeah. Well,

574
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,800
Speaker 3: I'm just like, there's a thirty eight year old man

575
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:25,199
Speaker 3: and he moves ridiculously fast for his I mean, now

576
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 3: he was walking pretty slow. But anyway, he missed Monday's

577
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:32,479
Speaker 3: game with an illness. I'm like, yeah, you miss it's

578
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:36,240
Speaker 3: probably polio. Well that's why he was hold out, right, Yeah,

579
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:42,040
Speaker 3: he should have drank more cider. Cider was good. Yeah,

580
00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:43,720
Speaker 3: I was surprised to see that a guy like that

581
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,320
Speaker 3: is sick. He just doesn't. He shouldn't get sick.

582
00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you're beautiful, you shouldn't get sick.

583
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:52,680
Speaker 3: Yes, he doesn't party chocolate milk, that's all he does.

584
00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:55,800
Speaker 1: I have Al Horford on my list as well. I

585
00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 1: feel he's perfect as Cranberry Sauce because he is thirty

586
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:01,200
Speaker 1: eight years old. What you forget? He still gives you

587
00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:03,440
Speaker 1: a ten to five and three and like thirty minutes

588
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:05,639
Speaker 1: per game when he is out there and you said it,

589
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:07,480
Speaker 1: you already went through all the three point shooting numbers.

590
00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:09,920
Speaker 1: I just like always want to remind people. We always

591
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 1: talk about Brook Lopez, man, this guy never shot a

592
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,199
Speaker 1: three through the first half of his career, and then

593
00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:17,760
Speaker 1: look at what he became from distance. The same is

594
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:22,520
Speaker 1: true with Al Horford. He hit twenty total threes over

595
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:26,280
Speaker 1: his first eight seasons and now is like hits two

596
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 1: to two and a half a game like it. You know,

597
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:31,359
Speaker 1: shoots a lot of them too, that really good clip.

598
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,960
Speaker 1: So yeah, I think he's the perfect Cranberry Sauce. It is.

599
00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:37,680
Speaker 3: It is weird though, because we call him Cranberry Sauce,

600
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:38,960
Speaker 3: and I think he's getting into the Hall of Fame.

601
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 3: Look this cranberry sauce. Get into the mom My mom.

602
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:46,080
Speaker 1: Would put cranberry sauce on the like the goat Thanksgiving items.

603
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:48,600
Speaker 1: Some people love cranberry sauce, not me.

604
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:53,159
Speaker 3: Out of a can. Yeah, yeah, it's gonna like it.

605
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 1: I like it.

606
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:55,080
Speaker 2: I don't know if I would love it. I don't

607
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:56,159
Speaker 2: know if I'm putting it in the Halliday.

608
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:56,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right.

609
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:58,360
Speaker 2: I kind of think Horford has made his case.

610
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think he has. He is you just lasted

611
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:03,199
Speaker 3: all these years. It's it's a little bit we used

612
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,480
Speaker 3: to say, we used to call him into the Hall

613
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 3: of very Good. We put him in the Hall of

614
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 3: very Good. But it's a little like it's a little

615
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:12,920
Speaker 3: like Vince where you just kind of thought it was

616
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:14,879
Speaker 3: over at some point of his career, but he just

617
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,040
Speaker 3: kept going and going and going, and then finally the

618
00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:20,119
Speaker 3: longevity and obviously winning the title. Yeah, as he.

619
00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:22,679
Speaker 1: Went on, but two from I mean, did you win

620
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:24,800
Speaker 1: in college? Two back to back? Jackson? There, you can

621
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:25,800
Speaker 1: be back to back in the NBA.

622
00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:27,720
Speaker 3: I didn't want to ask him about being at the

623
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:29,680
Speaker 3: White House after winning in Florida. He was the only

624
00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:32,679
Speaker 3: Boston Celtic to ever be there. Before he'd been there twice.

625
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:34,760
Speaker 3: I remember as a Gator he could.

626
00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:38,440
Speaker 1: Have like maybe noticed some renovations. Yeah, sure, thus to

627
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 1: be like this, And you said, well no, but hold on,

628
00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:45,240
Speaker 1: you said you do like cranberry sauce, like you're gonna

629
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 1: have some tomorrow, and is a part of it, like

630
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 1: you like to mix it with a little bit of

631
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:51,640
Speaker 1: like everything does it like you got to right. So

632
00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:53,680
Speaker 1: I think that's perfect for Al Horford. I think like

633
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 1: he mixes them, he lifts everyone else up a little bit.

634
00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:00,120
Speaker 2: Perfect. Perfect, Okay, So who else do you have on

635
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:03,160
Speaker 2: your list as a potential cranberry sauce? I got two, okay,

636
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 2: two guys, same team. One is a homemade one is

637
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:08,960
Speaker 2: jelly in the camp. Chris Paul and Harrison Barnes.

638
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:09,200
Speaker 1: Yeah.

639
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:10,840
Speaker 2: I thought we were all gonna have the same man

640
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,280
Speaker 2: worried on this one. So I'm glad you went Horford mode.

641
00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:16,560
Speaker 2: But Chris Paul ten points, eight assists per game, Harrison

642
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:18,800
Speaker 2: Barnes eleven points, five rebounds per game, best player in

643
00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:21,760
Speaker 2: the Western Conference as we speak. They got nine wins

644
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:23,800
Speaker 2: in seventeen games. It took him forty five games to

645
00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:27,480
Speaker 2: win nine games last year, and throwing the fact that

646
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,160
Speaker 2: Jeremy Sohan went down with injury, Stefan Castle moved into

647
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:32,920
Speaker 2: the starting lineup there six and four. Since we've got

648
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:36,400
Speaker 2: when you got Wemby Castle CP three and Harrison Barnes

649
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 2: on the court in just one hundred and six minutes,

650
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:39,920
Speaker 2: not a lot of time, but they're a plus twenty

651
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,560
Speaker 2: four net rating. They've looked awesome, and you know, this

652
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:45,000
Speaker 2: is exactly the point of bringing in vets like Chris

653
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,080
Speaker 2: Paul and Harrison Barnes. Just do your job, make us

654
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,360
Speaker 2: look like a normal basketball team. Suddenly they're a top

655
00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:53,320
Speaker 2: ten defense over five hundred and these guys aren't putting

656
00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:56,480
Speaker 2: off like crazy stats. They're like league average players who

657
00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:58,560
Speaker 2: know where to be and the right thing to do.

658
00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:01,120
Speaker 2: And it has worked a well for this first.

659
00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:04,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I couldn't go Harry Bow because I said him

660
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,160
Speaker 3: literally two years ago. He was my pick and twenty

661
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:09,760
Speaker 3: twenty two I checked my notes and I just didn't

662
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 3: want to go to it again. But he's perfect. That's

663
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:14,160
Speaker 3: why he's Cranberry Sauce. Will be there every freaking year

664
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:17,400
Speaker 3: and I'll do a decent job, not a great yo. Yeah,

665
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:18,960
Speaker 3: do his job.

666
00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:21,960
Speaker 1: It's reliable, exactly I'll give you one more. And I

667
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:24,600
Speaker 1: know he gets overlooked because he's on the worst team

668
00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:27,920
Speaker 1: in the league. Jonas Valentiutas is still putting up like

669
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:31,840
Speaker 1: pretty insane numbers. Again, crappy team, I get it. But

670
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:34,920
Speaker 1: he's averaging eleven points per game, eight boards, and two

671
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:39,040
Speaker 1: assists in under twenty minutes per game. If you want

672
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 1: to do the old per thirty six on Valentutis, the

673
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:44,000
Speaker 1: guy's like a twenty one, fourteen and four. It's like

674
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:47,719
Speaker 1: an all star Save you, Onis Valentois, somebody goes save him.

675
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 1: You could definitely see him having a role still on

676
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 1: a good team that has plans to go deep in

677
00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:53,800
Speaker 1: the playoffs.

678
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:56,520
Speaker 3: Must be a heartbreaker for that guy because he started

679
00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 3: two games. I think it was the first two games

680
00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:02,280
Speaker 3: of the season, right, Ryan Keisa, that's enough that you

681
00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:04,360
Speaker 3: come to Washington, you start two games and then you

682
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:06,880
Speaker 3: just get pulled. And he didn't do anything wrong.

683
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:09,040
Speaker 1: I'm probably doing too much right.

684
00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:13,280
Speaker 3: Maybe it's just one quick addition here Amazon Plumbly for

685
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:16,400
Speaker 3: the Phoenix Suns. OK surprising how good he is off

686
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,360
Speaker 3: the bench. He's obviously no stats, no nothing good about that,

687
00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:23,120
Speaker 3: but he just he just he just fills the table perfectly.

688
00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:25,720
Speaker 3: You other four guys do your job. I will rebound,

689
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,480
Speaker 3: I will box out. And he's good at it. He's

690
00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:31,000
Speaker 3: very good at he's helping out again. That Phoenix suns

691
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:32,960
Speaker 3: bench is, it's pretty stacked.

692
00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:35,560
Speaker 1: You like cranberry sauce more than plum sauce.

693
00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:40,280
Speaker 3: So plum so plum sauce for everybody else. Some people

694
00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:42,120
Speaker 3: don't call it. They don't call it plump sauce. Down here?

695
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:42,920
Speaker 2: What do they call it?

696
00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:43,360
Speaker 3: They call it?

697
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 2: They may call it sweet and sour? Yes, maybe difference similar? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

698
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:52,520
Speaker 2: it's interesting. Why would you You could dip hell can

699
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:55,920
Speaker 2: finger into a cranberry sauce? You absolutely could should do

700
00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:58,240
Speaker 2: it this week? Okay, I'll report back.

701
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you could dip anything in very so

702
00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:02,200
Speaker 3: it's like sweet.

703
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 1: Just like it is a sauce.

704
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:05,360
Speaker 3: It is a saus all right.

705
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 1: Next one here, which player is Brussels sprouts? I'm looking

706
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:16,400
Speaker 1: for a polarizing player, occasionally stinky, but also kind of good.

707
00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:19,920
Speaker 1: I mean, the point is Brussels sprouts. Some people obviously

708
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:22,040
Speaker 1: like them, some people don't. I mean roasted Brussels sprouts.

709
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:24,719
Speaker 1: Let's go, but uh TK, you guys started here. Which

710
00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 1: NBA player is Brussels sprouts.

711
00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:28,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, Brussels sprouts for me were a grower, you know,

712
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:31,320
Speaker 2: bad rap when we were kids, right up there with

713
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:33,680
Speaker 2: broccoli for the worst rep. I blame bugs Bunny for

714
00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:35,480
Speaker 2: both of them. I don't know why, but brussel sprouts

715
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:36,360
Speaker 2: can be pretty good.

716
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:38,040
Speaker 1: I took them.

717
00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:41,680
Speaker 2: I don't steal them. Yeah, roast, we want them, Little Crispy,

718
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:46,760
Speaker 2: we love them, don't we? I got two? Okay, it's

719
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:50,880
Speaker 2: Thanksgiving access ye fill your plate with these two guys

720
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:52,960
Speaker 2: from the twenty one draft, who are drafted right after

721
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:55,560
Speaker 2: each other. Number one and number two played Cunningham and

722
00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:56,240
Speaker 2: Jalen Green.

723
00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:57,840
Speaker 1: Wow, same answers.

724
00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,480
Speaker 2: If you like Kid Cunningham, you're like WHOA your best

725
00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:02,920
Speaker 2: twenty three point five points per game, career best eight

726
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:06,040
Speaker 2: point nine assists per game. He's shooting thirty six percent

727
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,440
Speaker 2: on six attempts from downtown.

728
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 1: That's six solid.

729
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:12,120
Speaker 2: Man. If you don't like Caid, He's sixth in the

730
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:14,160
Speaker 2: league in shots per game and twentieth in the league

731
00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:16,880
Speaker 2: in scoring. He's scoring twenty three points per game on

732
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:20,120
Speaker 2: twenty field goal attempts. He leads the league with four

733
00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:23,680
Speaker 2: point six turnovers per game, the most since Russell Westbrook

734
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:26,480
Speaker 2: played for the Wizards. He also leads the league in

735
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:29,360
Speaker 2: clutch turnovers and has turned the ball over more times

736
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 2: than he's made a shot in clutch time eight turnovers

737
00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:37,240
Speaker 2: six makes yeah, yep, he doesn't finish inside. Thirty six

738
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:40,840
Speaker 2: players have taken five or more restricted area attempts per game.

739
00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:44,400
Speaker 2: Caid is thirty fifth out of thirty six fifty two

740
00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:45,440
Speaker 2: point nine percent.

741
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:46,360
Speaker 3: That's a set.

742
00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:49,800
Speaker 2: Yeah. He gets compared to Luka doncch because of the

743
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:53,000
Speaker 2: way they play, because he's a big guard who can penetrate.

744
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,360
Speaker 2: He doesn't have the handle of Luca. He ain't as

745
00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:57,960
Speaker 2: strong as Luca, and he cannot finish like Luca. Luca

746
00:33:58,040 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 2: is the best finisher in the league who's like six

747
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,400
Speaker 2: to an eight tall. So you know, Cate has been

748
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:04,760
Speaker 2: up and down. This is his best season. There are

749
00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:08,840
Speaker 2: still flaws there. Jalen Green had a lot more trouble

750
00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:12,000
Speaker 2: finding the good for Jalen Green so far this year.

751
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:13,759
Speaker 2: But you could say, look, he's leaning the rockets and

752
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:15,839
Speaker 2: scoring at least when I wrote this yesterday, eighteen point

753
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:18,600
Speaker 2: seven points per game. He's leaning shot attempts, leading in usage.

754
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:20,480
Speaker 2: You just paid him a big deal. You get a

755
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,000
Speaker 2: lot out of them. But he's shooting like thirty eight

756
00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:26,600
Speaker 2: percent from the field, thirty percent from three, basically a

757
00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:29,680
Speaker 2: one to one assist a turnover ratio, and somehow he's

758
00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:32,800
Speaker 2: been blocked at the rim twelve times. Guys one of

759
00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:34,480
Speaker 2: the best athletes in the league can jump out of

760
00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 2: the gym. Just means he's driving into trash. Sure, and

761
00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:40,359
Speaker 2: there's a lot of guys there. So I haven't been

762
00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:42,839
Speaker 2: super impressed with Jalen Green this season. I think Cad

763
00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:45,239
Speaker 2: Cunningham has been better than Jalen Green this season, but

764
00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:46,280
Speaker 2: they're both Brussels Sprouts.

765
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:49,960
Speaker 1: For me, Wow, my exact answer is unbelievable. I knew

766
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 1: I had a feeling Jalen Green would be in the

767
00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:53,279
Speaker 1: mix here for Brussel Sprouts. I was wondering if you'd

768
00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:57,080
Speaker 1: bring up kid. He's such a polarizing player. It just

769
00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:00,320
Speaker 1: people also like, go to bat for him, you'll probably

770
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:02,560
Speaker 1: get like, you know, hate in the comments. Come on,

771
00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:04,120
Speaker 1: you're always hating on Kate kind of him with the

772
00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:05,719
Speaker 1: pistons and like there's some truth to it maybe, But

773
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:08,120
Speaker 1: then there are other people that are right at times,

774
00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:10,759
Speaker 1: like man, he has some really bad fourth quarters. He's

775
00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:13,040
Speaker 1: going to improve, He's obviously still young, he's finally on

776
00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:15,399
Speaker 1: a decent team and guys around him that are actually

777
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:18,239
Speaker 1: competent players. But yeah, polarizing right now, for.

778
00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:23,080
Speaker 3: Sure, Absolutely polarizing. I'm going with another polarizing player. I

779
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:26,320
Speaker 3: thought maybe he could be from the region that Brussels

780
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:30,440
Speaker 3: Sprouts came from. I'm looking right now. I'm getting extremely

781
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:33,880
Speaker 3: anal here right now, but I'm seeing Brussels capitalized. Like

782
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:37,560
Speaker 3: why is Brussels capitalized? Oh, just where it's from, I suppose,

783
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:40,400
Speaker 3: just because from Belgium, I guess. Anyway, So you're going

784
00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 3: Jean Claude vanday Jeohn claudandamn no from a close country.

785
00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:47,400
Speaker 3: Rudy Gobert from France. Oh, he's the classic. He is

786
00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:49,480
Speaker 3: the classic. But he's still doing it right now. You

787
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 3: know he gets into those spats with teammates. Did it

788
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:54,040
Speaker 3: with Julius Randold they're playing in the timber Wolves last week.

789
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,279
Speaker 3: He was waiting for the ball in the post, give

790
00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:57,839
Speaker 3: it to me, give it to me. Didn't come to him,

791
00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:00,840
Speaker 3: so he just walked away. Low Lying got called for

792
00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:03,320
Speaker 3: an offensive three second call because Randall didn't give it

793
00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:06,880
Speaker 3: to him. Now, Colbert apologized. They made up and go

794
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:11,000
Speaker 3: Beart's he goes both ways. He got into it with Randall,

795
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:13,520
Speaker 3: but then he said, quote, there's too many times when

796
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:15,360
Speaker 3: I feel like I let the team down a little bit,

797
00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:17,360
Speaker 3: whether it's one quarter or a few minutes. And I

798
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:19,280
Speaker 3: can't have that if we want to be a great

799
00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:20,960
Speaker 3: as a team, and if we want to be a

800
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:23,560
Speaker 3: championship team, every minute that I'm on the floor, I

801
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:25,640
Speaker 3: have to be the best in the world at what

802
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:29,080
Speaker 3: I do. Man, it's give or take with Rudy. Sometimes

803
00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:31,920
Speaker 3: it's good sometimes at eight and the next game versus

804
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:35,000
Speaker 3: the Celtics, Randall made that pass and they were buddies.

805
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:37,080
Speaker 3: And he does good things. I mean we saw last

806
00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:39,760
Speaker 3: night watching against the Houston Rockets. Sometimes he block shots.

807
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,759
Speaker 3: Sometimes Shanggon gives it to him in the face. Sometimes

808
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:45,680
Speaker 3: anybody can score on this guy, but he has to

809
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:49,040
Speaker 3: keep fighting, especially for this Minnesota Timberwolves team to come

810
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:50,719
Speaker 3: back from what they are. I mean, it is an

811
00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:54,520
Speaker 3: interesting team without Cat. They're struggling defensively and they haven't

812
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:57,959
Speaker 3: found their chemistry and they're eight and nine. They're literally

813
00:36:58,000 --> 00:36:59,880
Speaker 3: outside of the playoffs right now. For a team that

814
00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,880
Speaker 3: traded away Carl Anthony Townsend. You could say, obviously, if

815
00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:06,879
Speaker 3: they don't make it, you just gave away your team, man. Yeah,

816
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:09,320
Speaker 3: so it has to come internally from them. They have

817
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:11,880
Speaker 3: some games coming up here against the Kings, Clippers and

818
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,520
Speaker 3: Lakers at home, which will be interesting. But they lost three,

819
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:18,600
Speaker 3: they lost other Raptors, and they lost the w in Canada.

820
00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:22,160
Speaker 3: But why can't they win in Canada? That's really weird.

821
00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:25,360
Speaker 1: I don't know, really, It's one of the weirder stats

822
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:29,400
Speaker 1: that they haven't won in twenty years in Canada because

823
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,120
Speaker 1: I know they haven't been the greatest team in the

824
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:34,000
Speaker 1: past twenty years, the Wolves, but nor have the Raptors,

825
00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:35,480
Speaker 1: no for times at least.

826
00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:37,000
Speaker 3: So yeah, that's just a strange one.

827
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:41,120
Speaker 1: All right, let's get up from the normal Thanksgiving table

828
00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:43,719
Speaker 1: and we're wandering over to the kids table because I

829
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:46,200
Speaker 1: have a kids table question for you that JD is

830
00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:50,000
Speaker 1: making me say out loud. Guys, which player has the

831
00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:53,560
Speaker 1: most skibbitty ohio riz? You know, as the kids would

832
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:57,239
Speaker 1: say at the kids table during Thanksgiving? What does it mean? No,

833
00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:01,239
Speaker 1: one's really quite sure, but Trey, you take a stab

834
00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 1: at it. Which player has the most skibbity ohio Riz?

835
00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:05,520
Speaker 1: If that's even a thing.

836
00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:08,600
Speaker 2: That's a thing. Okay, my ten year old just got

837
00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:13,760
Speaker 2: an Apple Watch. We're in a group chat together. Within

838
00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:16,120
Speaker 2: a week, the name of our group chat was skibby

839
00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:22,560
Speaker 2: Ohio Rizzlorian Cake. But she's so mad. I say Risen,

840
00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:25,319
Speaker 2: I say it all the time. Good as a verb,

841
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:26,920
Speaker 2: it's an adjective adverb.

842
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,800
Speaker 1: So the riz I get that, I mean charismatics. I

843
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:36,120
Speaker 1: understand that part. The skimmity nothing, no clue. And then Ohio,

844
00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:41,640
Speaker 1: I thought was a negative connotation only in Ohio, So

845
00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:44,759
Speaker 1: I have to be okay anyway, So okay, who is

846
00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:46,600
Speaker 1: the player that has the most skimmy Ohio?

847
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:46,920
Speaker 3: Is that?

848
00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:47,400
Speaker 1: For me?

849
00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:48,279
Speaker 2: It's LaMelo ball?

850
00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:50,319
Speaker 1: You and I lock stuff here.

851
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:54,080
Speaker 2: Man, He's playing like he's in high school again. People

852
00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:57,080
Speaker 2: everybody said this is is Chino Hills high School mixtape.

853
00:38:57,280 --> 00:38:59,239
Speaker 2: He did a sham God step back this week. He's

854
00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:02,600
Speaker 2: shooting one footed step backs pretty regularly. He's leading the

855
00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:05,640
Speaker 2: league in usage three point attempts. He's taken the third

856
00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:08,200
Speaker 2: most threes of any player ever. I think it's like

857
00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:10,200
Speaker 2: Harden and Kurry are the only guys who have taken

858
00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:12,920
Speaker 2: more than he is. It feels like Charles Lee has said, look, man,

859
00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:14,759
Speaker 2: you're a great playmaker. We need you to score a

860
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:17,080
Speaker 2: whole bunch of points, especially while they don't really have

861
00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:20,040
Speaker 2: any big guys now to be catching Alley. He's better

862
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:22,680
Speaker 2: at finishing this year. I think LaMelo has been which

863
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:25,120
Speaker 2: is kind of been a place where he's needed to

864
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:28,359
Speaker 2: grow with his size and strength and actually being able

865
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:30,200
Speaker 2: to finish in side. So hopefully he's able to stay

866
00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:34,920
Speaker 2: healthy because he's fun to watch and turn it into wins.

867
00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:37,600
Speaker 2: It's weird to kind of see this this late in

868
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:39,759
Speaker 2: a player's career, where they are like, just go out

869
00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:42,520
Speaker 2: and go insane shoot every time if you want. That

870
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:46,239
Speaker 2: happens like year one or two. Usually LaMelo is what

871
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:46,759
Speaker 2: year four?

872
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:47,400
Speaker 1: No?

873
00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:50,719
Speaker 2: Or is he a year five? He's year five. It

874
00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:52,400
Speaker 2: kind of feels like they're at the very start of

875
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:55,680
Speaker 2: the rebuild again. So I don't love that, but I

876
00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 2: also do love every LaMelo highlights tape from every game

877
00:39:59,120 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 2: he plays.

878
00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:03,840
Speaker 1: Look, I don't know what skibby I can't even say it.

879
00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:07,480
Speaker 1: I don't know what skibbity ohio riz means, but I

880
00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:10,840
Speaker 1: know that that Lamello play from the other night is

881
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:15,080
Speaker 1: what skibbity Ohio, riz it? This is it to me?

882
00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:18,960
Speaker 1: This crazy like you said, sort of sham god like

883
00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:22,520
Speaker 1: wild step back off his patent, sort of one foot

884
00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:27,080
Speaker 1: there where he barely jumps. That is skibby. That is

885
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:30,560
Speaker 1: That's all I know, tas So, I had Lamello as well.

886
00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:32,160
Speaker 1: I love that answer. But do you have anyone else?

887
00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:34,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean he kind of takes a skippy skippy

888
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,839
Speaker 3: he's doing that. Yeah, and he might be carrying the ball.

889
00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:40,720
Speaker 3: Who knows everything?

890
00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:45,440
Speaker 1: You imagine that was in Cleveland, that play. I know

891
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:51,440
Speaker 1: Eric Collins going, Ohio, don't caring what.

892
00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:57,879
Speaker 3: Skippity, Ohio, give it to him. I got a couple

893
00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:01,359
Speaker 3: of answers. Jason Tatum, I think is so good at

894
00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:04,600
Speaker 3: not letting any place stay with him.

895
00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:06,520
Speaker 1: Just kobe.

896
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:10,120
Speaker 3: A little riz you know, he doesn't let anything bother

897
00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:11,440
Speaker 3: him on the floor. He just moves on to the

898
00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:14,400
Speaker 3: next posession. You saw George and Yang get in his

899
00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:17,440
Speaker 3: way and he and Jase Dams scored through him, and

900
00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:21,040
Speaker 3: he said that guy bleep that guy. I mean, he

901
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:24,000
Speaker 3: he just moves on. He just throws it to the

902
00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:26,000
Speaker 3: next play, just moving on to the next play. He's

903
00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:27,840
Speaker 3: really good at that. And I will say shake Gilders.

904
00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:35,080
Speaker 3: Alexander just cool. He's cool man. He's doing skims, underwear ads. Kimmy, Yeah,

905
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:43,920
Speaker 3: Kimmedy Ohio, Riz Skimmedy Canada, Riz, Skimmy. We're in skims. Hey,

906
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:46,040
Speaker 3: you gotta be pretty confident to be pulling that off

907
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:51,280
Speaker 3: to go shirtless. Uh, and he's like underwear totally revealed.

908
00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:54,239
Speaker 3: You know, sometimes I don't like when basketball players do that,

909
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:57,759
Speaker 3: like the Chandler Parsons. Remember the modeling days of Channel.

910
00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:02,000
Speaker 3: You forget they were not ideal. But yeah, well, I

911
00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:04,600
Speaker 3: mean he's got way more confident. I would say she's

912
00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:07,920
Speaker 3: got more, way more confidence because he goes shirtless, pantless.

913
00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:10,479
Speaker 3: I mean Chandler was at least covered up a little

914
00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:15,560
Speaker 3: to some degree underwear. He was wearing pants. He was

915
00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:18,880
Speaker 3: wearing pants. You could just see the top of his underwear.

916
00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:22,360
Speaker 3: Shake Gills, johnsoner, you can see everything. You can see everything.

917
00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:24,920
Speaker 3: He doesn't need to add an additional bulge to it,

918
00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:29,560
Speaker 3: like like, he just goes straight up, straight up underwear right.

919
00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:34,759
Speaker 3: Others others would have to add something, Shake Gils, Alexander

920
00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:39,160
Speaker 3: does not. He just wears his underwear, right. Have you

921
00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:43,920
Speaker 3: seen it? Have you seen him in Skims.

922
00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:47,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, you've seen Donovan Mitchell and Skims.

923
00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:53,640
Speaker 3: I have, I have, I have, you know, you know,

924
00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:58,360
Speaker 3: you know in high school you see guys in there wrestling.

925
00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:03,719
Speaker 2: They gotta Hey, JDH does not have a great question.

926
00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:07,279
Speaker 1: I'm glad you included that question. Final one here. I

927
00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:09,640
Speaker 1: want to know because we are Thanksgiving and it's a

928
00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:13,560
Speaker 1: week to be thankful for things. Another NBA podcasts that

929
00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:16,640
Speaker 1: you're thankful for what you got on your list there TK.

930
00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:20,600
Speaker 2: I'm thankful for the Hoop Collective podcasts, right, Brian and

931
00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:24,040
Speaker 2: the Times. That's that's the core three for me. Obviously,

932
00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:26,960
Speaker 2: they just switch in and out some personnel here and there,

933
00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:30,279
Speaker 2: but I love listening to those guys. Great chemistry, well

934
00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:33,440
Speaker 2: plugged in. They've got three distinct personalities which I like.

935
00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:36,680
Speaker 2: And then I also like the Companion podcast, you know Ball,

936
00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:40,520
Speaker 2: where they then break down collective podcast and do their

937
00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:42,840
Speaker 2: own skits and bits in the midst of that. So

938
00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:43,680
Speaker 2: those are my two.

939
00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:44,359
Speaker 3: Those are great.

940
00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:46,399
Speaker 1: They're on my list. You know, Ball makes me laugh

941
00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:49,359
Speaker 1: more than any other NBA podcasts, So good stuff from them.

942
00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:51,160
Speaker 1: What about you, NBA podcast?

943
00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:54,000
Speaker 3: You are thankful for the d NVR Nuggets podcast. Those

944
00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:57,719
Speaker 3: guys are extremely solid. They just bring it after a win.

945
00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:01,080
Speaker 3: They have the Winners Table podcast after all loss and

946
00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:05,840
Speaker 3: they're just really insightful and great Mars Win Vote, Superstar

947
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:09,160
Speaker 3: dev They're always bringing it. Yeah, great text. Some of

948
00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:11,120
Speaker 3: them go to the stadium, but they keep it real

949
00:44:11,200 --> 00:44:13,600
Speaker 3: and they're good and it's just one team so they

950
00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:15,960
Speaker 3: don't miss a thing. Yeah, they know extremely well.

951
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:20,920
Speaker 1: Well. Along the same lines, very thankful for Will and

952
00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:26,360
Speaker 1: Alex and Jerome's Hello and Welcome podcasts which covers the Raptors.

953
00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:30,960
Speaker 1: Will's Raptors Recap shows like they're the best because, like

954
00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:33,399
Speaker 1: I'm obviously a Raptors fan, but especially this year, I'm

955
00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:36,080
Speaker 1: not watching every single minute of every Raptors game with

956
00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:38,400
Speaker 1: all the other action going on, but I feel like

957
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:40,919
Speaker 1: I don't miss a thing listening to Will, like break

958
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:43,400
Speaker 1: down the game, the pros, the cons and stuff like that.

959
00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:46,280
Speaker 1: So shout out to our guy Jerome of course helping

960
00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:48,920
Speaker 1: produce that with Will and Alex, so that one's awesome.

961
00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:52,480
Speaker 1: And I'd add the NBA Daily loving that right now,

962
00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:55,120
Speaker 1: especially the Slam and Jam on the weekend. Shout out

963
00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:58,440
Speaker 1: to Schlecht and Spears. Love the NBA bit. Mike Sekrion

964
00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:00,560
Speaker 1: and then yeah, he said the Hoop Collective. Any time

965
00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:04,280
Speaker 1: Simmons is talking to Rissolo about the NBA, it's absolutely hilarious.

966
00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:07,800
Speaker 1: So just a few other NBA podcasts that we're thankful

967
00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:09,400
Speaker 1: for you. Let us know what we're missing. Let us

968
00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:13,560
Speaker 1: know in the stream team or in the comments below. Okay,

969
00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:18,400
Speaker 1: tasks fourteen games on tonight, and we are tied at

970
00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:22,120
Speaker 1: least two of us are in dead last for our November.

971
00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:25,520
Speaker 1: For our November, pick them me and Trey at seven

972
00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:30,480
Speaker 1: and nine. Because Esh correctly called the Rockets last night.

973
00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:31,759
Speaker 2: That's the spot to day.

974
00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:34,440
Speaker 1: I'm kicking myself for not taking you said, I love Houston,

975
00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:37,319
Speaker 1: Why did I? I just thought the Wolves needed it more,

976
00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:40,880
Speaker 1: wanted it more. It was close, exactly. It could have

977
00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:41,520
Speaker 1: went either.

978
00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:43,040
Speaker 3: Way, but the three of us put it in first

979
00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:45,120
Speaker 3: and just says, Okay, I gotta take the other one.

980
00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:46,960
Speaker 1: That's been a winning formula, honestly.

981
00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:47,600
Speaker 2: Pressure.

982
00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:50,839
Speaker 1: So Ash is eight and eight. Tash your fine nine

983
00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:53,319
Speaker 1: and seven. But again, Trey and I are tied seven

984
00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:56,200
Speaker 1: and nine. So whoever loses, if we're on the opposite

985
00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:59,480
Speaker 1: side here tonight, whoever loses has to eat a four

986
00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:04,680
Speaker 1: pound from Costco pumpkin Pie next week. However long it takes,

987
00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:07,200
Speaker 1: it takes basically until you finish that damn pie, whether

988
00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:10,520
Speaker 1: it be one show or all week. So, Tassa, this

989
00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:11,759
Speaker 1: is a lot of pressure because you got a lot

990
00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:12,799
Speaker 1: of games to pick from. Where were going.

991
00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:15,280
Speaker 3: It was an easy one for me to see Golden

992
00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:18,359
Speaker 3: State hosting the Oklahoma City Thunder. Yeah, we're going at

993
00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:21,640
Speaker 3: the top of the West. Baby. The Warriors get two

994
00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:24,399
Speaker 3: and a half points, so they can lose by two

995
00:46:24,600 --> 00:46:28,120
Speaker 3: or lesser, have to you know, obviously win if if

996
00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:30,480
Speaker 3: you're the Golden State Warriors, you're focused on the Thunder

997
00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:32,640
Speaker 3: coming to town, while the Warriors obviously have to win

998
00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:37,080
Speaker 3: by three to cover myself excuse me, Yeah, myself and

999
00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:38,920
Speaker 3: Trey think, okay, see we'll do that.

1000
00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:40,479
Speaker 1: Okay, this was tough.

1001
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:42,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, you guys, why did you pick the Warriors?

1002
00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:44,839
Speaker 1: Well, you know what, the Thunder. I actually did something

1003
00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:46,840
Speaker 1: different this morning. I was into that doc before t

1004
00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:49,279
Speaker 1: k was this morning, I saw you had made your pick.

1005
00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:51,680
Speaker 1: It didn't really matter. I was like, I'm gonna wait

1006
00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:55,040
Speaker 1: to see where Tray goes. Because I was I was torn.

1007
00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:57,400
Speaker 1: I could talk myself in either way. I think I

1008
00:46:57,560 --> 00:46:59,520
Speaker 1: was leaning towards Okac, but I wanted to see where

1009
00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:02,280
Speaker 1: Trey went. He went thunder. Just give me the dumbs,

1010
00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:03,480
Speaker 1: So here we go.

1011
00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:04,040
Speaker 2: That's right.

1012
00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:04,759
Speaker 1: Good luck to you for.

1013
00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:08,040
Speaker 2: Someone else's hand shade girl. Just Alexander gonna have this

00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:08,840
Speaker 2: season high tonight.

1015
00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:10,440
Speaker 1: Mm hmm I think so.

1016
00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:12,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, they got nobody.

1017
00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:12,440
Speaker 3: To guard him.

1018
00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:13,200
Speaker 1: I don't like to hear that.

1019
00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:14,960
Speaker 3: Yes, watching them with.

1020
00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:17,640
Speaker 2: Hart and Stein Thanksgiving what was a month ago.

1021
00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:19,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he hates American Thanksgiving.

1022
00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:22,680
Speaker 3: I do like how you guys are picking different teams.

1023
00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:25,680
Speaker 3: So somebody's losing tonight. Yeah, that's it set and is

1024
00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:27,200
Speaker 3: done done right, It's.

1025
00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:29,120
Speaker 1: Done in Dustin, Man, get the pie ready? You did

1026
00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:30,120
Speaker 1: you buy the pie yesterday?

1027
00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:33,160
Speaker 3: I did not. I'm gonna go buy it today. It

1028
00:47:33,239 --> 00:47:36,840
Speaker 3: should still be full. I'm sure everybody everybody buys a

1029
00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:39,840
Speaker 3: Costco pie. As we said, one of our fans chimed

1030
00:47:39,840 --> 00:47:42,800
Speaker 3: in and said, I worked there one year and I

1031
00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:45,600
Speaker 3: had to make a thousand pis why those people are

1032
00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:49,040
Speaker 3: just buying pies here in America. It's you know, you

1033
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:51,239
Speaker 3: rounded up to four pounds, but it's has three point

1034
00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:55,319
Speaker 3: six three y I think I think everyone weighs three

1035
00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:57,640
Speaker 3: points six three pounds, so you're putting on some weight

1036
00:47:57,680 --> 00:47:58,799
Speaker 3: next week, so you're picking it up.

1037
00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:03,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, because it's, uh, it's a popular pie that

1038
00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:04,560
Speaker 1: people are saying.

1039
00:48:04,800 --> 00:48:05,839
Speaker 2: Popular pumpkin pie.

1040
00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:11,919
Speaker 3: People are preaching players NBA players are will be eating

1041
00:48:11,960 --> 00:48:15,480
Speaker 3: them too. Because he said fourteen games they're not playing tomorrow.

1042
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:19,880
Speaker 1: Just reminded me. Yeah, I just made that do the

1043
00:48:19,960 --> 00:48:22,880
Speaker 1: magic play at home tonight because they usually do something

1044
00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:25,440
Speaker 1: on the court after the game around Thanksgiving where they

1045
00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:27,799
Speaker 1: like give them a turkey and see if the guys.

1046
00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:29,080
Speaker 3: Like legs sometime.

1047
00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:32,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, rabbit. I don't know if they're at home tonight

1048
00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:35,040
Speaker 1: though hopefully they are because there's a lot of games on.

1049
00:48:35,200 --> 00:48:38,840
Speaker 1: Fourteen games on so Orlando is home. Hey against the Bulls,

1051
00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:44,279
Speaker 1: a bite? Okay, before we go, As I said, this

1052
00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:46,600
Speaker 1: is the drop because it's our final show of the

1053
00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:48,759
Speaker 1: week here because of Thanksgiving. So let's end with some

1054
00:48:48,920 --> 00:48:51,120
Speaker 1: rapid fire fun task. You got the question?

1055
00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:54,799
Speaker 3: First one, nikol Jokic continues to marvel, was zero point

1056
00:48:54,840 --> 00:48:57,440
Speaker 3: three seconds left and receiving an inbound pass underneath his

1057
00:48:57,480 --> 00:49:01,440
Speaker 3: own rim. He literally volleyball served that patch just bashed

1058
00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:03,719
Speaker 3: it eighty feet and nearly into the net.

1059
00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:05,799
Speaker 1: I was fricking yeah, it wasn't that far off.

1060
00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:09,000
Speaker 3: You're right, it was great. What's something extraordinary you've done

1061
00:49:09,120 --> 00:49:10,440
Speaker 3: while playing a sport.

1062
00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:15,200
Speaker 1: I've probably shared all three of these things before, but

1063
00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:18,600
Speaker 1: they're really the only three extraordinary things I've ever done

1064
00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:21,640
Speaker 1: when it came to sporting. I once scored forty points

1065
00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:24,480
Speaker 1: in a high school game during my sophomore year. I

1066
00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:27,799
Speaker 1: once ran a two fifty three marathon. And I've never

1067
00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:32,640
Speaker 1: lost a street race against my friends, undefeated, undefeated, and

1068
00:49:32,719 --> 00:49:35,759
Speaker 1: we'll never race again. At this age. I am the

1069
00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:38,360
Speaker 1: Usain Bolt of street racing, at least against my friends.

1070
00:49:38,640 --> 00:49:41,560
Speaker 3: You gotta show that skibbity. If somebody as a, hey,

1071
00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:42,680
Speaker 3: come on, come.

1072
00:49:42,560 --> 00:49:45,200
Speaker 1: On, let's race, Okay, I would race. I would race

1073
00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:46,800
Speaker 1: like nine to ten year olds.

1074
00:49:47,160 --> 00:49:48,040
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah.

1075
00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:49,960
Speaker 1: So if that happens at Thanksgiving, I'm like, you want

1076
00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:52,320
Speaker 1: to throw down, let's go beat you? Yeah? Yeah exactly,

1077
00:49:52,560 --> 00:49:53,680
Speaker 1: But those are mine?

1078
00:49:53,920 --> 00:49:55,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, Trey, what's serious?

1079
00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:59,000
Speaker 2: I had two extraordinary moments playing intra murals in college.

1080
00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:01,200
Speaker 2: I caught a hail Mary. It's like awful bounce. It

1081
00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:04,040
Speaker 2: was honestly the exact same as Washington Commanders bounced straight

1082
00:50:04,080 --> 00:50:07,040
Speaker 2: to me. It was awesome, terrible celebration. I yelled, and

1083
00:50:07,120 --> 00:50:12,680
Speaker 2: it was like, yeah, it was not cool, not cool

1084
00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:16,600
Speaker 2: at all. Great catch though, And then I don't know.

1085
00:50:16,680 --> 00:50:18,640
Speaker 2: I think it's our senior year. We were playing wiffleball.

Speaker 2: Heated whiffleball tournament. Made it to the finals, best two

1087

1088
00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:27,560
Speaker 2: on the mound home run in both games. Already said

1089
00:50:27,600 --> 00:50:30,120

00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:35,560
Speaker 1: Wow, be done.

1092
00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:38,319
Speaker 2: It was like hit over the green monster. And how

1093
00:50:38,360 --> 00:50:40,160
Speaker 2: did I celebrate? Silence?

1094
00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:46,200
Speaker 1: Like screamed really high.

1095
00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:51,879
Speaker 3: Pitched taking the curveball. Yeah, great stuff. All right, Jad

1096
00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:54,080
Speaker 3: you got something short now you've done while playing a sport.

1097
00:50:54,280 --> 00:50:58,800
Speaker 3: I mean not really, let's be honest. Anything anything, come on,

1098

1100
00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:06,880
Speaker 4: I didn't know that what was allowed. So now that

00:51:27,719 --> 00:51:29,799
Speaker 4: and shake a bank. You you cross over to your

00:51:29,880 --> 00:51:32,920
Speaker 4: partner's side and spike it down.

1109
00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:35,640
Speaker 2: The term bank.

1110

00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:42,960
Speaker 4: I feel Ohio right now.

1113
00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:49,640
Speaker 3: Left into the kitchen, all right. Next one, Scottie Pippen

1114

Speaker 3: this week, making pop Up proud. He sure did. What's

1116
00:51:56,120 --> 00:51:58,680
Speaker 3: something you did that made your dad proud?

1117
00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:03,840
Speaker 1: I was named valedictorian from my high school graduation class.

1118
00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:06,160
Speaker 1: I mean pop Up proud. He came to see the speech.

1119
00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:09,200
Speaker 1: It was at the Stratford Festival Theater, which was cool.

1120
00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:11,920
Speaker 1: And then the fun part of this story, though, is

1121
00:52:12,440 --> 00:52:13,960
Speaker 1: I may have shared this before, because we've done this

1122
00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:17,520
Speaker 1: schauffor Dan twenty years. I never told you a story

1123
00:52:17,600 --> 00:52:22,200
Speaker 1: that when I was valedictorian, my buddy Grish and my

1124
00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:24,560
Speaker 1: buddy Dub now who I went to high school with,

1125
00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:26,520
Speaker 1: but Dave was one year older, so he was already

1126
00:52:26,560 --> 00:52:29,560
Speaker 1: done high school. And then Paul went to like he

1127
00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:31,759
Speaker 1: went to Brazil for a year, so like we didn't

1128
00:52:31,800 --> 00:52:34,359
Speaker 1: match up in terms of graduation. Point is they were

1129
00:52:34,440 --> 00:52:39,960
Speaker 1: gonna come see my valedictorian speech and they were supposed to,

1130
00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:43,839
Speaker 1: but they missed it because it was the exact same

1131
00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:48,160
Speaker 1: night that the first guy ever won a million dollars

1132
00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:50,640
Speaker 1: on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? And they were

1133
00:52:50,760 --> 00:52:54,719
Speaker 1: like locked in and watching it. Wow, and they completely

1134
00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:57,120
Speaker 1: missed my speech. They like showed up right as I

1135
00:52:57,280 --> 00:52:59,520
Speaker 1: was like ending, and I'm like, well, you know, what'd

1136
00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:01,320
Speaker 1: you think are I was like, god, yeah, we missed it.

1137
00:53:01,440 --> 00:53:04,400
Speaker 1: We saw history and John Carpenter man he called his

1138
00:53:04,560 --> 00:53:07,960
Speaker 1: dad like a badass and used his lifeline, just burned it.

1139
00:53:08,320 --> 00:53:10,480
Speaker 1: Don't need your help, pops about to win a million bucks.

1140

00:53:15,640 --> 00:53:17,520
Speaker 1: in like remembering this story, I'm like, how does this

1142
00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:20,000
Speaker 1: make sense? Why was my valedictorian or why was my

1143
00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:21,720
Speaker 1: graduation ceremony in November?

1144

Speaker 4: I had to go back in November too, and I

1153
00:53:46,320 --> 00:53:49,680

Speaker 2: one and he's standing like Captain Morgan next to a

1181
00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:12,520
Speaker 2: like a cruise ship. Like timed up perfectly with what

1196
00:55:54,000 --> 00:55:57,400
Speaker 3: unique guy, truly one of a kind. Among the incredible

1197
00:55:57,440 --> 00:55:59,759
Speaker 3: things he told The Old Man and the Three podcasts

1198
00:55:59,840 --> 00:56:02,279
Speaker 3: was that he was happy. He told the media the

1199
00:56:02,480 --> 00:56:06,000
Speaker 3: lights were brighter than expected after losing in the playoffs,

1200
00:56:06,040 --> 00:56:08,719
Speaker 3: be cuz he was thrilled that he became a meme

1201
00:56:08,760 --> 00:56:11,400
Speaker 3: out of it. He loved it. It was a great interview.

1202
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:14,880
Speaker 3: What is one of your favorite memes?

1203
00:56:15,680 --> 00:56:18,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think with this question, you can live in

1204
00:56:18,360 --> 00:56:20,600
Speaker 1: the moment, right, get caught up in a current meme.

1205
00:56:21,239 --> 00:56:23,080
Speaker 1: But I want to remember the ogs and some of

1206
00:56:23,120 --> 00:56:26,720
Speaker 1: the classics. And it still hits from me. Condescending Wonka.

1207
00:56:27,360 --> 00:56:30,759
Speaker 1: It's just a funny. I just love it. I love

1208
00:56:30,840 --> 00:56:34,120
Speaker 1: the movie as a kid, and it's just like it's

1209
00:56:34,160 --> 00:56:38,000
Speaker 1: had a couple iterations. I feel like this Wanka photo

1210
00:56:38,360 --> 00:56:41,799
Speaker 1: where you know, very sarcastic, right, like, tell me more

1211
00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:45,600
Speaker 1: about that when you really don't care. Maybe so condescending.

1212
00:56:45,080 --> 00:56:46,000
Speaker 3: Wonka a classic?

1213
00:56:46,080 --> 00:56:48,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is when memes would last. Hell yeah, you
