It's a thing where I've 42 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,520 Speaker 4: turned my back in a way and I am a 43 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 4: very positive person, so it to be negative like this 44 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 4: is so it's not like me and it's their fault 45 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 4: because I now am like, oh, okay, I'm negative.

I'm not doing 58 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 4: But how are you? I mean, I know that that 59 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 4: come back. Look, we know we. 60 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:14,959 Speaker 1: Know Sixers fans well, they're part of our lives. We 61 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,640 Speaker 1: care about them deeply, and this always happens. We're like, 62 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: I mean, look at where Look at the state of 63 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 1: the seventy six ers currently eight straight at the time 64 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 1: of this recording. Okay, we have Tyrese Maxi putting up 65 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 1: fifty points, okay, and be putting up thirty seven as 66 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 1: a duo. They're dynamic. What what what? What could you 67 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 1: be upset about? Who's been playing like this? That's well, Chamberlain, 68 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 1: You're right, that's that's this little the dipper. 69 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:48,480 Speaker 4: I think he's one of the biggest dippers I've ever 70 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 4: seen by the way people have challenged me on that, 71 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 4: but I would say, as dippers go, one of the 72 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 4: biggest and if not the biggest. So this is the 73 00:03:55,640 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 4: problem with this team, is that the torture that I 74 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 4: and my six Ers family and by that I mean 75 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 4: the O'Brien family have been through during since the process 76 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 4: is they are eight and one and they also have 77 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:18,840 Speaker 4: it's a fun in theory, it's a fun core. And 78 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 4: here's the thing with I'm the biggest Embiid fan. I 79 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:26,840 Speaker 4: love Embiid throughout this journey. Embiid personality wise, love him, 80 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,039 Speaker 4: not his fault that he would get hurt, but he 81 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 4: is complicit and part of through no fault or of 82 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:37,919 Speaker 4: his own sometimes and his fault directly a part of 83 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,919 Speaker 4: the torture where you know he would get sick. He 84 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,120 Speaker 4: got elbowed in the face, like there's just been bad 85 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,239 Speaker 4: luck associated with Embid, even when he won the MVP. 86 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 4: So now we have this team Satan won and there's 87 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 4: Tyres Maxi, which is so close to drawing me back 88 00:04:55,000 --> 00:05:00,559 Speaker 4: in because he's a guy so close where we weren't 89 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 4: even gonna get So he is the Marquel Folts. 90 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 5: That was promised, you know. 91 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 4: And he is so good and he's he's something that 92 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,039 Speaker 4: the seventy six ers team has never been, which is 93 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 4: pure joy and happiness. And he's young, and the way 94 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 4: he plays, he's having fun. He always has a smile 95 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 4: on his face, and his game is so perfectly complimentary 96 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 4: to Joel Embiide and the way that he has grown. 97 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 4: Where I can't remember, there was this first overall pick 98 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 4: that we had who just refused to play and practice 99 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 4: with the cell phone in his pocket. 100 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 5: Went to Brooklin. Then thank thank you, thank you, thank you. 101 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 4: So he did not evolve his game, he didn't learn 102 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 4: to to shoot. And then you have Maxi who has 103 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 4: worked on improving his game and look how great he's been. 104 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,280 Speaker 4: I'm so close to being drawn back in, and we 105 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,480 Speaker 4: almost didn't get him. Literally, it was like a pick 106 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 4: that if Oklahoma City had lost the final game of 107 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 4: the year, that pick would have turned into a second 108 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 4: round pick. And yet somehow we got that pick for 109 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 4: of Tyrese Maxy and he fell in the draft after 110 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 4: he went to Kentucky. So I'm I'm getting close to 111 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 4: being drawn back in, but I am proud of myself 112 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 4: I'm going I'm not going back in though I do 113 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,679 Speaker 4: love Tyrae Maxty and I'm cheering for him and Embiid obviously, 114 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 4: but I hope the Sixers get moved to Newark. 115 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:27,280 Speaker 2: But okay, so with all of that, you just said 116 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 2: eight games literally unlocked, being if you know, if you will, 117 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 2: Tobias Harris playing well, Nick Nurse, the new system, everything 118 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 2: looks great. Embiid honestly, every every bit as good, if 119 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 2: not better than his MVP year. Yeah, Yet I don't 120 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 2: know if I believe that. 121 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 1: I feel like I know you're back. You don't want 122 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,839 Speaker 1: to admit your back because I feel deep down you 123 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: know you're going to meet your best friend in the 124 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 1: second round, and then if you start the timer all 125 00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 1: over again, I know that's what's going on. There's no 126 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 1: way I look at this and not be like yes 127 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 1: and know that it's it's obviously doing harm to you. 128 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:08,719 Speaker 1: But that's just how addiction works. Sometimes you're like, honey, 129 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 1: but it's okay, let's just do one more ride. 130 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 5: Can I tell you something? 131 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 4: All of my comedic and wanting to be a good 132 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 4: guest sensibilities right now want to yes and you and 133 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 4: be like you're right, I'm back in.

I'm doing one of those things in a 142 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 4: war movie where I have like that mirror that doesn't 143 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 4: exist anywhere, but these people have for some reason in 144 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 4: war where the angle man it like around the corner 145 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 4: and look to see if there's like a person poknon 146 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 4: trying to shoot you. That what I'm doing where I 147 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 4: don't I don't want. It's a meduce the situation. When 148 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 4: you're not watching the Sixers straight on and watching them 149 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 4: through a mirror in my. 150 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: Just to make just to give some distance. You're like, well, 151 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 1: this is actually the play happened in the reverse visually 152 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 1: of what I actually saw, because it's. 153 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 4: Being mirror exactly exactly and real quick as good as 154 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 4: the vibes are right now, Kelly Ubray, who's having his 155 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 4: best season. 156 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,239 Speaker 5: Yeah, just got hit by a car. I know, that's great. 157 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 4: Just the Philadelphia driver hit him, hit and run and 158 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 4: he's fine, thank god, Like he has a fractured rip. 159 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 4: But I think and also just period, thank god he's 160 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 4: okay full stop. And then also he should be playing 161 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,440 Speaker 4: I think again probably in a couple of weeks. Like 162 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 4: he's it's not a season ending thing, which is. 163 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: Said that he came to practice that as we record this, 164 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:46,200 Speaker 1: it said he like rode the bike and was, you know, 165 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: on on his way. So that's good. So it's not 166 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 1: it's not too too messed up. 167 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 4: But I get flies in the league.

Kelly Ubray, you know, having a great year, 173 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 2: and you know, knock on back, you know, playing well, 174 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 2: and Kelly Oubray's eyes and we still can't get you 175 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 2: to go there. 176 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 5: It's the eyes. 177 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 4: It's going to be a combination of his eyes and 178 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 4: when Maxi, Maxi's the bridge back in and obviously embid. Two, 179 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 4: it's now Here's God, I I really need It's I'm 180 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 4: in therapy. So it is like it's a thing that 181 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 4: I hope my therapist doesn't listen to, as she's gonna 182 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 4: be like, oh, he doesn't listen to a word I say. 183 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 4: But yeah, if I do get dragged back in, it's 184 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 4: obviously going to be first and foremost Maxie, Nick Nurse. 185 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 4: It's hard to even acknowledge that there's a coach on 186 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,559 Speaker 4: this team ever. So you know, like Brett Brown when 187 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 4: he was there, he didn't deliver really, but he was 188 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,559 Speaker 4: such a likable I see watching this guy get tortured 189 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 4: by this ridiculous even that. You know, Doc Rivers has shortcomings. 190 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 4: Of course, I think he's a little underrated. I think 191 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:12,719 Speaker 4: Doc Rivers takes more crap than he deserves. But and 192 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:14,959 Speaker 4: now you have Nick Nurse, who seems like he's like, uh, 193 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 4: he plays acoustic guitar and he's interesting, I guess, And 194 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,320 Speaker 4: we're full closed. But yeah, it'll it'll be I think 195 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 4: MAXI will probably end up bringing me back in until 196 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 4: he retires midseason, probably for no reason. 197 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 1: I'm I'm actually I want good things for you, you know, 198 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,439 Speaker 1: because I don't want people to get caught in their cynicism, 199 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 1: you know, unless you know, maybe you have the misfortune 200 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: of liking the Clippers or something. But I don't want 201 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 1: somebody to get caught in this cycle of underachieving and frustration. 202 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 1: I want you to have belief, you know, because I 203 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 1: think it's a beautiful thing, and I certainly like watching 204 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 1: it's so funny because even though I see it happen 205 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:54,439 Speaker 1: every year, I'm like, oh, yeah, they're they're cooking, let's go. Yeah, 206 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 1: and then but it's just so funny. I feel like 207 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 1: there's more people, like maybe all the Philly fans are 208 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:02,080 Speaker 1: just willing it into distance with their negative like yeah, 209 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: wait till the second round and. 210 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 5: Then we're right back. But hey, it's so buddy. 211 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, we'll see they are on paper more fun and 212 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 4: we'll see they'll probably add a like a third person 213 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 4: where I know a lot of fans. Sixers fans want 214 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:23,120 Speaker 4: like a Zach Lavigne, you take them, should take them. 215 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 2: Lakers fans are also saying the same exact thing, and funny, they're. 216 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 1: Like, yeah, maybe maybe him. I'm like, let's let's not 217 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:36,560 Speaker 1: get too caught up in the recency bias. Here, let's 218 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:38,720 Speaker 1: take a let's take an expanded view of what we're 219 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:39,439 Speaker 1: talking about here. 220 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 4: No, yeah, yeah, I think it's more that he's gettable 221 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:45,559 Speaker 4: for those reasons that you're just saying. I think you're 222 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 4: alluding to. But right, yeah, who knows. We'll see, Yeah, 223 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,079 Speaker 4: we'll see, We'll see. I'm so damaged. 224 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 1: It's okay, it's okay. 225 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 2: Time in on this one. Are they playing like the 226 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 2: best duo in the league right now? I recognize it 227 00:11:59,320 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 2: on paper? 228 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:01,679 Speaker 1: Now you don't have to say they're gonna win ever, 229 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 1: you know, win at all, but best duo in the league. 230 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 5: Thank you for handling me with pig glove. 231 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. 232 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 4: No, I do believe they are playing that way. And also, 233 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 4: you know, Embiid does get moody. You can't blame him, 234 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 4: and it's he's had difficulty in the past connecting with, 235 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 4: say like a Ben Simmons, and he seemed to get 236 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 4: along well enough with Harden, But it does seem like 237 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 4: there's I think he used the phrase big brother little 238 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 4: brother situation with him and MAXI, And I think if 239 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,439 Speaker 4: you have a guy that much younger than Embiid is 240 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:42,319 Speaker 4: and who does not divert but defer to embiid when 241 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,840 Speaker 4: the time's right, and also helps his game spreads the floor. 242 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 4: It is a really special combo, right, So yeah, I 243 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 4: think right now they're incredibly Who would you have in 244 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 4: that conversation other like Jalen Brunson and Joshuard who else? 245 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 5: But you put in as the di bad to us? 246 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, like the obvious ones are the 247 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 2: big names, or like Brown and yeah, yeah, yeah, Jayleen 248 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,200 Speaker 2: Brown and Dylan Brooks clearly or no, excuse me, dumb, 249 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 2: Jalen Green and Dylan Brooks clearly, No, Tatum and uh 250 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,680 Speaker 2: and and jay and Jayalen Brown. Yeah. 251 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 5: I threw you a whole bunch of names that have 252 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 5: and jumbled and you're doing great. 253 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's It's like, if we talk about the most 254 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 1: popular name in the league. 255 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 2: They've got like seven jalens on Okac's roster. I don't 256 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:29,959 Speaker 2: know how that's possible, but yeah, looking Katie Giannis and 257 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,880 Speaker 2: Dame right now, those names are bigger. But I think 258 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 2: I actually think that those are those that combo was 259 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 2: playing the best so far. 260 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:39,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think so. Through nine, Yeah, through the night. 261 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 1: It felt like sure at the end of the season, 262 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 1: like everybody was pointing at the numbers of book and 263 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:48,440 Speaker 1: KD and like yeah. That was like yeah, and then 264 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:52,559 Speaker 1: there I get that the Giannis and Dame thing, the 265 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 1: excitement there. But I was just asking Jabari before recording, 266 00:13:56,320 --> 00:14:00,439 Speaker 1: I'm like, but what is Dame actually doing? Because I 267 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 1: remember in the beginning I saw some great moments and 268 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, they're off to something. But then 269 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:07,679 Speaker 1: I'd like then it maybe two weeks ago I was 270 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 1: catching again. I'm like, okay, is he does he like 271 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 1: playing defense? And now I was asking job I'm like, 272 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,439 Speaker 1: where where are the numbers there to support it? Or 273 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 1: is it? Does he seem a little deflated? I think 274 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: it's three. 275 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 4: I've heard that his three point or that he hasn't 276 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 4: been shooting threes as well, But I may have seen 277 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 4: that on the ESPN bottom line four weeks ago. And 278 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 4: now I'm repeating it as if it's fact. 279 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 1: But yeah, yeah, Jabari, where are we at? 280 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 2: It's still facts. He's he's shooting in the twenties and 281 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 2: you know from from deep shooting like thirty seven percent 282 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 2: from the floor. He's never you know, he's never shot 283 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 2: an incredible percentage from the floor because he shot so 284 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 2: many threes. 285 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 1: Right, well, really what you know, and look like this is. 286 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 2: Me from the outside looking in. What it appears is 287 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 2: is that they're still going to have to figure that 288 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 2: roster out around him, whether that means bringing in complimentary 289 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 2: players to actually help him out. You know, you're honest, 290 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 2: you know what you're going to get. And and he's 291 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 2: and he's he's still been playing incredibly well. You know, 292 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 2: he had a fifty four point night the other night. 293 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 2: And I do think that Dame will eventually settle into 294 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 2: his own but part of me does think that it 295 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 2: it really is a bigger adjustment than a lot of us, 296 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 2: you know, anticipated, in terms of going from being like 297 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 2: the big fish in a small pond all of a sudden, No, 298 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 2: you're expected to win a title this year alongside you. 299 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, it feels a little bit like I don't know, 300 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 1: like just the perceived slump in his performance, like there's 301 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 1: no way the not going to Miami thing isn't affecting him. 302 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 1: Like I just it's hard for me to believe that 303 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:40,240 Speaker 1: because that was like that was like me Christmas of 304 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 1: nineteen ninety two with the Super Nintendo. 305 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:43,720 Speaker 2: I was like I need that. 306 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 1: It's like Smeiegele with it. You know what I mean, 307 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 1: he shout out to my parents for not letting me 308 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 1: go full gollum and giving me the console of my choice. 309 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,120 Speaker 1: But yeah, I feel like that there's no way that 310 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 1: isn't affecting you as as a like your performances. I know, 311 00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,440 Speaker 1: obviously as a professional you should be able to switch gears. 312 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 1: And I know there were the rumors are like, dude, 313 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 1: he will not play if it is not Miami. And 314 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 1: I bet obviously some of that is hyperbole to try 315 00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 1: and further a deal, but I'm sure on some level 316 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 1: that is rooted in some kind of truth for him personally, 317 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 1: and I think maybe, I don't know, Hopefully it's just 318 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 1: a matter of time and you can figure it out, 319 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 1: but yeah, I don't know. It does seem like it's 320 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 1: not quite clicking. 321 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 4: He is also a six to thirty three year old, 322 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 4: you know where it's like he has his game like 323 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:34,800 Speaker 4: an insult. 324 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 1: No, no, no, it is al but like just in general, 325 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: like you're not even the context of basketball if you're 326 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: just like, dude, you're a six to thirty three year old. 327 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 1: I don't know why that. 328 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 5: Get out of my face. 329 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, like gen Z, it's like, yeah, gen Z, insults 330 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 1: that just cuts you to your core, like, wow, that 331 00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:56,760 Speaker 1: was very cool. Anyway, sorry, anyway, he's a six foot 332 00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 1: two thirty. 333 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 4: Three year old six foot two thirty three year old 334 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 4: ed which I would, you know, tear an arm off 335 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:05,879 Speaker 4: to have someone say something like that about me. 336 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:09,399 Speaker 5: But it's his body has put like he does have 337 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 5: kind of some. 338 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 4: Rough mileage on his body carrying those teams, and you 339 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 4: know it's I think like in later in this season, 340 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:19,959 Speaker 4: I'm sure there'll be like in a ten game stretch 341 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 4: where he's like, I have a sore knee or whatever, 342 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:26,119 Speaker 4: and then he'll recover and then they'll be like the 343 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:29,159 Speaker 4: most dangerous team in the league. But you know, it 344 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 4: is there is also a point to be made, like 345 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 4: it's it's he's put hard Miles on his body and 346 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 4: now he's like in a new situation. To Miles's point, 347 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 4: he didn't get to go to the team that he 348 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 4: wanted to go to, and he's not the star anymore. Yes, yeah, yeah, obviously. 349 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:51,160 Speaker 1: So yeah, all right, let's take a break and we'll 350 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 1: come back and we'll talk a little bit more. Maybe 351 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 1: some Luca, maybe some joker who knows to grab bag. 352 00:17:56,920 --> 00:18:09,120 Speaker 1: We'll be right back, and we're are back. I said, 353 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 1: we're are That's uh, that's not proper English. How about 354 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:16,640 Speaker 1: this one and we're back? Aha, got it. Let's talk 355 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 1: a little bit, Uh, Luca and the MAVs. They're doing 356 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 1: pretty well. I'd say they're doing pretty well. Although it's 357 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 1: funny because a lot of our guests over the like 358 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 1: off season, they were doing a lot of there were 359 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,639 Speaker 1: a lot of their hot takes. We're like, watch the 360 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,879 Speaker 1: MAVs not even get a whiff of the postseason, or like, 361 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 1: or it's gonna be, you know, early lights out for 362 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:39,720 Speaker 1: them in the postseason. But and I get obviously it's 363 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 1: so early, but they're they're starting from a decent place. 364 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 1: I'd say, yeah, Look I was. 365 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,359 Speaker 2: I was on the opposite end of that, and I'll 366 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:51,040 Speaker 2: be honest with you. I thought I might be wrong 367 00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 2: about this, and then might I might be going out 368 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:54,440 Speaker 2: on a limb. But I felt like they had a 369 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:57,399 Speaker 2: great offseason. You know, obviously, you know, if you've been 370 00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,679 Speaker 2: paying attention to the Mavericks over the last like say 371 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 2: or probably in their entire existence, but over the last decade, 372 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:05,159 Speaker 2: they hadn't had a lot of productive offseasons. It was 373 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:07,400 Speaker 2: always like Oh, they went after this guy didn't quite 374 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 2: get them. Oh, they went after the guy didn't quite 375 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:12,119 Speaker 2: get them. But you know, they've solidified the roster. It 376 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 2: looks significantly better. Luca may finally be the MVP that 377 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 2: a lot of people have been begging for him to 378 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 2: be for the last like seemingly three four years. You know, 379 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 2: he's only been in the league five to sixty eight years. Yeah, 380 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 2: and you know what, the Kyrie thing, While I personally 381 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 2: may have had reservations or questions about it, at the 382 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 2: very least right now it's working. So yeah, the things 383 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 2: look good for them, especially when you know when Luca 384 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:38,920 Speaker 2: himself personally plays the Clippers. 385 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 4: Yeah. 386 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 1: So the Clippers had the misfortune of intersecting with this 387 00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:49,879 Speaker 1: MAVs team recently, and Luca has a bit of he 388 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:54,120 Speaker 1: kind of has their number, Like he likes to turn 389 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:57,439 Speaker 1: up against the Clippers. So in that game, he had 390 00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:01,280 Speaker 1: forty four points on seventeen from seventeen to twenty one 391 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 1: from the floor. They went on a thirty four to 392 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:06,960 Speaker 1: thirty five to four run in the second quarter, and like, 393 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:11,000 Speaker 1: what's the Like he's always going like above his average, 394 00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,679 Speaker 1: Like he's overperforming right against the Clippers. Davari. 395 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:16,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, against them in the regular season, he's a thirty 396 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:18,720 Speaker 2: three nine and eight guy. It gets even worse than 397 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 2: the postseason thirty four, nine and ten. You know, he 398 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:23,359 Speaker 2: scored forty or more against them eleven times in a 399 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 2: regular season in postseason combined, and he even went for 400 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:29,680 Speaker 2: fifty one last you know, last February. It's one of 401 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:32,639 Speaker 2: those things where when this Clippers you know, team was 402 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 2: put together, and not to take it away from you know, 403 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:36,960 Speaker 2: not to take it away from Luca, but when this 404 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 2: Clippers team was put together, they were you know, respected 405 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:43,680 Speaker 2: journalists and analysts asking questions like who's going to score 406 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:46,200 Speaker 2: on this team? Who on the perimeter is going to 407 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:47,960 Speaker 2: score with it? Well, I'll tell you it might be 408 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:49,879 Speaker 2: a few years later, but it doesn't matter. Luca is 409 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:50,880 Speaker 2: the answer to that question. 410 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:54,880 Speaker 4: This is interesting too, where like I have this weird boy, 411 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 4: this Tim Hardaway bias where he's stuck in my head 412 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 4: as the guy who is a part of that wild 413 00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:05,359 Speaker 4: Porzingis trade in twenty nineteen as kind of a throw in. 414 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,200 Speaker 4: But now there's players like that where they have a 415 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:13,160 Speaker 4: lot of hype around them and they don't meet that hype. 416 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 4: But then after time you can kind of reset that 417 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 4: hype where now they're not being paid in that way anymore, 418 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,119 Speaker 4: and they now like their role changes and become like 419 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:26,680 Speaker 4: a complimentary player. And I think this version of I'm 420 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 4: also laughing where you sorry you have Lukatags is one 421 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 4: of the like objectively the most interesting player in the league. 422 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:35,879 Speaker 4: And I'm rambling about Tim Hardaway right now, but this 423 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:39,440 Speaker 4: is a good complimentary player version of him where he 424 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 4: comes off the bench, he's giving you, like whatever pass 425 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 4: view is like fourteen to seventeen points. His three point 426 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 4: percentage is like pretty good. And obviously Kyrie Irving he's 427 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:53,240 Speaker 4: just such a hard guy to even acknowledge, but he 428 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 4: is very like, you know, they still have a Kyrie Irvings. 429 00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 4: So yeah, they're an exciting I think like a lot 430 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 4: of bias in the off season was Kyrie's gonna blow 431 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,200 Speaker 4: up and then you know, Luca, as amazing as he is, 432 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 4: hasn't put it all together yet and that which is 433 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 4: scary because he's still like one of the best players 434 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:12,000 Speaker 4: in the league. 435 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 5: But now they are clicking in a crazy way, right Yeah. 436 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 2: Yeah. 437 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:22,159 Speaker 1: I just also the Clippers, we saw you know, former 438 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 1: seventy six er James Harden come come home, you know, 439 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 1: to Southern California, and I think, I mean a lot 440 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,600 Speaker 1: of people were like, how, what's what's how is this 441 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:38,440 Speaker 1: gonna go?

How are you looking at? 451 00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:06,080 Speaker 3: What is happening with with Harden and the Clippers right now? 452 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:12,399 Speaker 3: They're my new favorite team. That's who I cheered for now. No, 453 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:16,919 Speaker 3: it's so I always loved James Harden. Where I had 454 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 3: an Arizona State James Harden jersey. Yeah yeah, And I 455 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:31,160 Speaker 3: also it was the year it was him and Oj Mayo. 456 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:34,159 Speaker 4: I think was like that, like I I scooped up 457 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:36,639 Speaker 4: a bunch of weird college jerseys that year where I 458 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:41,639 Speaker 4: had Arizona State James Harden, I had Oj Mayo Southern 459 00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 4: California and then Michael Beasley Kansas State, and I really 460 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:53,639 Speaker 4: really blew through my allowance that year. But so with 461 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 4: James Harden, I was psyched for him to become a 462 00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:01,200 Speaker 4: sixer because I thought he could become because on paper, 463 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 4: the guy led the league in the sists last year, 464 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 4: which is I think he had over eleven assists per game, 465 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 4: over twenty two point or over twenty points whatever he scored. 466 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:13,639 Speaker 4: And you're like, oh, this guy seems like on paper 467 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,640 Speaker 4: the perfect running mate, or it seems as if he's 468 00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 4: accepted his role now as an aging guy who can't 469 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:23,320 Speaker 4: like get off the ground anymore and but still can 470 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:26,200 Speaker 4: be a very useful player. But he hasn't accepted that role. 471 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 4: He still thinks that he's a top at worst a 472 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:32,960 Speaker 4: top four player in the league, and he wants to 473 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 4: be paid like it, and that is that's why he's 474 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:38,399 Speaker 4: not in Philadelphia anymore. So now you put him on 475 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 4: a team, and it's I do want him to do it, 476 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:43,920 Speaker 4: because I've always cheered for Harden, like when he, like 477 00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 4: in his prime, was one of the most fun players 478 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 4: I think to watch. It was also infuriating how he 479 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:52,400 Speaker 4: would go like foul fishing, but like, still I didn't 480 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 4: mind that, and I. 481 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 5: Would love to see this Clippers team. 482 00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 4: It's classic, this Clippers team where it's all based on 483 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:03,879 Speaker 4: p and Shoal rather than what is where you know, 484 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 4: it was the same thing with Paul George. He hasn't 485 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 4: just hasn't been healthy. And then you have James Harden 486 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:12,359 Speaker 4: who thinks that he should still be the number one 487 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 4: option on any team. And it's not that surprising. I 488 00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 4: don't it'll even out, but it's been weird to watch 489 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:21,680 Speaker 4: for sure them be this bad. 490 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, as a fan of a team that started two 491 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 2: and ten last season and then we're able to pick 492 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 2: themselves out of the gutter, I do. I'm with you 493 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:33,840 Speaker 2: in terms of it doesn't have to stay this way, 494 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 2: but part of me and I'm and you know what 495 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:38,680 Speaker 2: Clippers fans, you know, like all twelve of you guys 496 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 2: out there. I'm not I'm not ragging when I say this, 497 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 2: but what I will say is the only way this 498 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:50,119 Speaker 2: changes is if one of either James Harden or Russell 499 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 2: Russell Westbrook accepts coming off the bench and accepts a 500 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:57,159 Speaker 2: significantly lesser role. And I'm gonna be honest with you, 501 00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,359 Speaker 2: I just don't see that taking place. Now. Maybe they 502 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:02,160 Speaker 2: can have some players players meetings, and you know, Kawhi 503 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 2: can sit there and not say anything, and you know, 504 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:06,360 Speaker 2: Paul George can you know, maybe you know, maybe chime 505 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 2: in and you know whatever. But honesty, guy James Harden 506 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,399 Speaker 2: came in and said, I am not just a player. 507 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 2: I am a system. I am the system. That's not 508 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:19,080 Speaker 2: a guy that's going to adjust anytime soon. And while 509 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 2: I don't have any personal beef with him, part of 510 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 2: me will continue to enjoy the sadness that Clippers fans 511 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:25,920 Speaker 2: are experiencing. 512 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:28,399 Speaker 1: Right yeah, I mean the system itis. You know you 513 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:31,359 Speaker 1: can't you saw that clip that was going on Twitter 514 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:39,920 Speaker 1: when they were playing Memphis, right oh, when he now, sir, sir, 515 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:43,200 Speaker 1: this is a family show. This is a family show. 516 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 1: Like when he was the way he was, the way 517 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 1: he was wiping his souls, like this was like high school, 518 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:55,439 Speaker 1: like man, watch this because you know the camera's only 519 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 1: here to watch me, right, kind of energy to only 520 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:02,480 Speaker 1: get reject did twice because was that an airball or 521 00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:03,360 Speaker 1: was a blocked. 522 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:05,880 Speaker 2: I think it was a block. He goes, he gets 523 00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 2: the rebound and he gets blocked again. 524 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:10,679 Speaker 1: Then he got blocked again, and you're like, well that's well, hey, 525 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:14,879 Speaker 1: sometimes it's hard. It's it's hard to acknowledge, you know 526 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 1: it kind of the reality of the situation. But hey, 527 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:20,880 Speaker 1: I think I'm sure something will occur.
