Speaker 3: we had five games on last night, so we gotta

70
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 3: do five games one thing, and we're gonna we're gonna

71
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 3: flip up the order in terms of the way we

72
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 3: saw the games last night because we gotta go to TK.

73
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 3: He's pumped. He had a great Tuesday, which has bled

74
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 3: into Wednesday. Guy was up late last night. Trey Kobe

75
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 3: White scores twenty one and the Bulls rally to beat

76
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 3: the Blazers one eleven, one o eight. They were down

77
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 3: twenty but they came back.

78
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 2: What's the big takeaway, well, Skeets, I only got one

79
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 2: thing for you. Ball stop ball stop ball stop ball

80
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,479
Speaker 2: stop ball stop balls. The balls are back. Are you

81
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 2: hitting me? Win of the year? The first twenty point

82
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,880
Speaker 2: comeback in the NBA this season. I saw some highlights

83
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,800
Speaker 2: from the Clippers versus the Spurs. They were talking could

84
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:50,480
Speaker 2: they be the first team to pull off a twenty

85
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,479
Speaker 2: point comeback? No, they can't, but the Bulls did. This

86
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:57,479
Speaker 2: was a crazy game. What a night in the Kirby household,

87
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:02,679
Speaker 2: Bulls blazing on the deck, Blazers on deck, election results

88
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 2: trickling in on the computer. A luxurious matchup out there,

89
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:10,599
Speaker 2: Red and Black, both teams January five going down in history.

90
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:13,159
Speaker 2: But this was a weird one. Like I said, the

91
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,160
Speaker 2: Bulls gave up a twenty point lead. They gave up

92
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 2: thirty nine points eighty three pointers in the first quarter.

93
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 2: The Blazers looked like they were on fire. It looked

94
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 2: like it was gonna be sad Trey Kirby coming in

95
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 2: on the show today. But I had the faith skeets.

96
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,480
Speaker 2: I said, just stick around. The comeback Bulls will take

97
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 2: care of this, and somehow they did. Billy Donovan has

98
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 2: gotten something out of Zach Lavine that feels a little

99
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 2: bit different. He was out there overpassing the ball in

100
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:40,040
Speaker 2: the first half of the game, but kept getting teammates involved.

101
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:41,760
Speaker 2: This ended up being a really nice team win. The

102
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:45,160
Speaker 2: Bulls had so many guys in double figures. They ended

103
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 2: up with seven players in double figures. Everybody was doing something,

104
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 2: everybody was boreding. This was a fun game to watch.

105
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,360
Speaker 2: Like I said, the Bulls have this huge comeback. Zach

106
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,799
Speaker 2: Lavine had said dagger three under a minute left. I'm upstairs.

107
00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,160
Speaker 2: Everybody else in the house is asleep. I'm just yelled

108
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 2: like this back in my arms against each other. It

109
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 2: was legendary stuff. Damian Lillard basically didn't make a shot

110
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 2: in the second half, but did make the one that

111
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,920
Speaker 2: was most important, knocked down that three from the right wing,

112
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,919
Speaker 2: the purest Swiss you could ever hope to see if

113
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:18,479
Speaker 2: you're Damian Lillard. But this was just this was just exciting. Man.

114
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,679
Speaker 2: I was going nuts in the house. Batteus Young playing

115
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:26,239
Speaker 2: small ball five auto porter, thirteen rebounds, including a huge

116
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,080
Speaker 2: rebound highlight under a minute skeets didn't even jump off

117
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 2: the FLOORI to grab it. This was legendary stuff. And

118
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:35,280
Speaker 2: you know, if you are a Bulls fan, you'll look

119
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 2: at Jim Boylan being hired as an assistant coached by

120
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 2: the Trailblazers and you say, this was a revenge game.

121
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 2: Where's your defense, Blazers. You can't stop the Bulls, the unstoppables.

122
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 6: What this feels finals, Yeah, he just called the Bulls

123
00:06:56,279 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 6: win in Portland in early January legendary twice.

124
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 3: And I'm pumped for you, man, I'm excited, but I'm

125
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 3: also pissed.

126
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 2: I marked it down. I was like, I was getting

127
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:07,160
Speaker 2: ready to go to bed last night, I was like,

128
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:08,680
Speaker 2: I got I got to write this down. I gotta

129
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 2: remember January fifth, What a night the election, the Bulls

130
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 2: I was flying.

131
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:17,440
Speaker 3: It felt like, I'm a little pissed with that Bull's

132
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,960
Speaker 3: victory because this is what I saw in the Bulls

133
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 3: last year. Tray like a quarter contributing, Saudius Young contribute.

134
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 3: This is what I've envisioned, and maybe yeah, just took

135
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 3: getting Boiling out of there and Billy in there to

136
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 3: help put it all together. But yeah, Lee, this was

137
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 3: I mean, really, it is an impressive comeback. And as

138
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 3: Trey said, the first time this season that a team

139
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 3: came back from twenty down. There's been a lot of

140
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 3: teams down twenty so far this season. The numbers are crazy,

141
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 3: the blowouts we've had, and we've had some teams get

142
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,080
Speaker 3: back into games. You know, the Clippers being one of

143
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 3: the last night, but always tough to come back from

144
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 3: twenty and then to continue to get to victory. You

145
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 3: see it come back a lot of times, but then

146
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,160
Speaker 3: you know the other team start of takes control and

147
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 3: ultimately closes it.

148
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 4: Out.

149
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,160
Speaker 3: But Bulls, what do you think about this one?

150
00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, and I'm mocking and either there for the bull

151
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 5: sided a little bit shortand but yeah, they just basically

152
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 5: with that first quarter and after that they clearly outplayed

153
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 5: Portland for three quarters in this game. I thought Portland

154
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 5: just sort of got on. I think they hit their

155
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 5: first four to three pointers and sort of got off

156
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 5: to that lead. But that was really the best they

157
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 5: did in that first quarter. They built that big lead

158
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 5: and that was it. After that, Chicago and the Chicago

159
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 5: Bulls went into the paint anytime they wanted, which is

160
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,080
Speaker 5: a real concern here. I think for the Blazers. Their

161
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 5: defense was very, very ordinary, particularly in that second half

162
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 5: there last night. That's a question here for Portland going forward,

163
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:31,200
Speaker 5: but for the Bulls to go on the road to

164
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:33,680
Speaker 5: get this win. This season started off so badly and

165
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 5: they'd look badly, but now they're starting to resemble the

166
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:39,600
Speaker 5: team that's starting to just change a little bit. And

167
00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:41,480
Speaker 5: Zach Lavine was asked after the game, you know, would

168
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,199
Speaker 5: you guys have won this game last year? And he

169
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 5: was like, no, no way, because they wouldn't have. You know,

170
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 5: you give the Bulls a punch last year and they

171
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 5: lie down straight away. But this season does feel a

172
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 5: little bit different already. I mean it did get off

173
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 5: to a bit of a slow start there with Billy Donovan,

174
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:56,839
Speaker 5: but sometimes that can be the way with a new coach.

175
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,319
Speaker 5: So you know, I think there's two sides here. I

176
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,679
Speaker 5: think you should I go, very impressive win the Blazers

177
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:05,679
Speaker 5: another just ordinary performance by them, and I wonder if

178
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 5: they will be a move made there at some point

179
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 5: in the season.

180
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 3: There's a lot of people wanting you to start to

181
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 3: fire up the trade machine to get the Blazer is

182
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:13,959
Speaker 3: a defensive big if you can.

183
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:16,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, see Nerk should be that guy though, really

184
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 5: shouldn't he. I Mean he was very very good down

185
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:20,599
Speaker 5: in the bubble there, but last night a couple of

186
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:24,080
Speaker 5: times just got beaten very very easily. And also, you

187
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 5: cannot have Canter and mellow out on the court together.

188
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 5: You just cannot do that. That's just a recipe for disaster.

189
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 5: But again, I think what Chicago did, which was smart.

190
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,959
Speaker 5: They just sort of kept attacking, attacking, attacking, in the paint,

191
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 5: and then when someone was over for three, they'd fire

192
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,560
Speaker 5: it out to that guy to shoot the three. So yeah,

193
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 5: this was a fun win and you can just see

194
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:44,719
Speaker 5: with Trade like look happy. Isn't it that exciting to

195
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 5: see when someone has a big comeback, because I imagine

196
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 5: in that first quarter, Tray was pretty much almost ready

197
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 5: to just jump into bed and say, screw this, this

198
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 5: one's all over.

199
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 2: No way, no way. I had a tweet during the

200
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,199
Speaker 2: first quarter a Blazers fans had to me, Man, I'm

201
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 2: so sorry you got to watch the Bulls every single night.

202
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,679
Speaker 2: This is my first time catching him. They're terrible. Zach

203
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 2: Lavine barely touched the ball in the first court and

204
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 2: I said, just stick around the comeback Bulls. They've got

205
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:11,079
Speaker 2: this taken care of. Guess what they did. Stacy King

206
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,559
Speaker 2: said on the broadcast. Who could have predicted this? Only

207
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,960
Speaker 2: a being of pure positivity? And that's what it's all about.

208
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 2: This year the Bulls, they looked like the team everybody

209
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 2: thought they were going to be last year, is what

210
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 2: it was to me. You saw Kevin O'Connor tweet last

211
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:24,720
Speaker 2: night where he's saying, I love the blend of youth

212
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,080
Speaker 2: and veterans that they have, and that's exactly what it

213
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 2: seemed like coming into last season. The difference, obviously, there's

214
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 2: a new coach in charge, and honestly felt last night

215
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,560
Speaker 2: watching the game that Billy Donovan had had some sort

216
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 2: of effect on the Bulls, right Zach Levine, like I said,

217
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 2: he was overpassing a little bit. People were calling him

218
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 2: Rondo last night because he wasn't looking for a shot.

219
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,560
Speaker 2: He was just trying to force passes. He didn't have

220
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,679
Speaker 2: his shot for the most part, but he did a

221
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 2: great job of getting people involved. And Billy Donovan is

222
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,079
Speaker 2: a point guard coach. Point guard's team tend to play

223
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 2: well underneath him. So I liked what I saw from

224
00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,320
Speaker 2: Zach Levine. I liked what I saw from Pat Williams.

225
00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 2: He hid a nice little uh his push shot to

226
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,200
Speaker 2: get things started there in the fourth quarter. Garrett Temple

227
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 2: had a huge game. We already mentioned Otto Porter hitting

228
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:07,120
Speaker 2: the glass. Apparently he's a small ball four now. He

229
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 2: was a rim runner last night. Bad Young a small

230
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:12,079
Speaker 2: ball five. That was a game changer when he came

231
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 2: in and kind of took Wendell Carter out of that

232
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 2: drop defense was able to play a little quicker and

233
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:18,079
Speaker 2: that kind of shut things off for Damian Lillard and

234
00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:21,080
Speaker 2: c J McCollum a little bit. The Bulls they looked

235
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,440
Speaker 2: good last night. They've won four out of five. Will

236
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 2: it keep going? Yes it will? Oh here positivity.

237
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 3: Here, positivity.

238
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 2: Yeah.

239
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 3: I wish it was still called the Rose Garden because

240
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,600
Speaker 3: we had the florists. Pat Williams do it. Some heist

241
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:35,560
Speaker 3: things late. That Zach Lavine three to that was ultimately

242
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:39,719
Speaker 3: the game winner was huge. Just you know, that was

243
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 3: a one point game and he drains the big three

244
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:45,200
Speaker 3: and you know, you guys know I love a rebound highlight.

245
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,880
Speaker 3: But let's go next level with this. I thought Wendell

246
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:52,160
Speaker 3: Carter Junior laid down some huge highlight picks last night.

247
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 3: He was dropping guys. Yes, yeah, dropped like two. I

248
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 3: was able to call him twice. Maybe they got that

249
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:00,679
Speaker 3: sugarman call him and Lollard was but he drops on

250
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 3: the big picks that the guys were not calling out

251
00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:05,679
Speaker 3: because they were not ready for the big Wendel Courage Junior,

252
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:07,200
Speaker 3: you know screen there.

253
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, but that team needs a bit of toughness too.

254
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 5: I mean that's one thing where you know that does

255
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 5: send a bit of a message to other teams when

256
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:14,160
Speaker 5: you've got to go out there and nothing dirty. No

257
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 5: one was really upset with him because he was just

258
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 5: doing his playing his role there, Like he's a big guy,

259
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:20,560
Speaker 5: make those screens, make your body get felt there, and

260
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:23,240
Speaker 5: he did that. So yeah, I mean that's what Chicago

261
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 5: has lacked in the last couple of years, is any

262
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 5: real defensive toughness. You know, you sort of look at

263
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,320
Speaker 5: that team as pretty flimsy. You can score on them

264
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:32,080
Speaker 5: any time, So you do need a guy who can

265
00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 5: sort of, you know, show his size. And this is

266
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:36,240
Speaker 5: his third season now, so you expect him to start

267
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 5: feeling a bit more in control out there. The Bulls

268
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 5: have got high hopes for Wendell Carter too. I mean,

269
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 5: he's been injured a lot through his career so far,

270
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 5: but if he can stay on the floor, he's a

271
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 5: pretty talented guy. I mean, I don't know really what

272
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:49,680
Speaker 5: the ceiling is until we get a good sustained period

273
00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 5: from him.

274
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:53,000
Speaker 3: But it was Al Horford. We always heard the Al Horford.

275
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I mean that that'd be incredible. Yeah yeah.

276
00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 5: We just again like they need to need to see

277
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,960
Speaker 5: him put it together for most of a season anyway.

278
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, injuries have played a huge part, all right. Congrats

279
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 3: to Tree, Kirby and the Chicgo Bulls fans out there.

280
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 3: I love it. I love it. Big victory in Portland.

281
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 3: All right, our next game, let's keep a moving here.

282
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 3: Kyrie Irving leads the undermanned Nets to the one thirty

283
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 3: to ninety six blowout over the Jazz. Here's one of

284
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:23,560
Speaker 3: those blowouts, Lee, what's your tickaway?

285
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,600
Speaker 5: Well, I was very excited for this game, especially because

286
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:28,719
Speaker 5: Kevin Durant wasn't playing. He's out for the next few

287
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:32,319
Speaker 5: games here with coronavirus protocols, and so I was like, Okay,

288
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:34,080
Speaker 5: let's just see because the Nets are under a little

289
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:34,520
Speaker 5: bit of pressure.

290
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 2: They need to win.

291
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:36,720
Speaker 5: They're playing against a very good team, a very good

292
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 5: defensive team. But Kyrie was in his bag, as the

293
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 5: kids say, in that first quarter, he was just incredibly

294
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,560
Speaker 5: hit so many shots, the threes, to step backs inside

295
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 5: the paint. And this was a blowout in the first quarter.

296
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 5: And again in the NBA, we know first quarter, as

297
00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:53,720
Speaker 5: we were just talking with the Bulls and the Blazers

298
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 5: there that that usually doesn't count for anything, but in

299
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 5: this game it absolutely did. The Jazz had no real

300
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 5: counter at all. Kyrie was just incredible. They couldn't stop him,

301
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 5: even when they double teamed him. He was just too good.

302
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 5: He made the right play, he made the right read

303
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,520
Speaker 5: or just hit the shot. And really disappointing performance here

304
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,320
Speaker 5: from the Utah Jazz. I mean, this is a team

305
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 5: that you know, I've looked at a couple of times.

306
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,040
Speaker 5: I thought they're very good offensive there makes such a

307
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,560
Speaker 5: difference when you have Bogdanovic back in that lineup, and

308
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 5: he stunk it up last night. Mitchell played okay, but

309
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:21,960
Speaker 5: that was really it.

310
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 3: And Rudy Gobert, you know.

311
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 5: He's got into it a little bit with shack Over

312
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:28,120
Speaker 5: on the weekend there Shaq saying that you can get

313
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 5: paid two hundred million if you don't have to score.

314
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 5: And I thought it was not a good response there

315
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 5: from Rudy last night. Defensely wasn't good.

316
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 3: He got his ass handed to him by Jared.

317
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 5: Allen exactly like and that's the sort of thing that like,

318
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 5: you know, the haters of Rudy Gobert look at a

319
00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:45,040
Speaker 5: game like that and think, I mean, Jared Allen, he's

320
00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 5: a solid player, but Rudy Gobert, if you're an all

321
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:51,800
Speaker 5: NBA player, all Star, you should dominate that matchup. But

322
00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:53,440
Speaker 5: he didn't do that last night. So yeah, this one

323
00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:55,880
Speaker 5: turned into a real snoozer, So the question has to

324
00:14:55,880 --> 00:15:00,600
Speaker 5: be asked the Nets better without Kevin Durant call him.

325
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 3: Lee Ellis later on The Athletic I love it. Well,

326
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 3: here's the other takeaway too, not just Kyrie cooking early,

327
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:10,080
Speaker 3: but the starting lineup tray that Steve Nash ultimately went with,

328
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,040
Speaker 3: you know, raised some eyebrows. At least they went with

329
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 3: because there's no Katie Kyrie starting. Okay, Bruce Brown to

330
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 3: a lot of people, that's a who you know, he

331
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:22,400
Speaker 3: played for the Pistons. He's there with the Nets now,

332
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:26,520
Speaker 3: Torrian Prince okay, Jeff Green getting the start, and then

333
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 3: finally finally DeAndre Jordan, we're gonna start the better center

334
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 3: that we have, you know, the better version of basically

335
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:38,000
Speaker 3: you younger you. Jared Allen he got the start. He

336
00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 3: was huge nineteen and eighteen for Jared Allen, three steals,

337
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 3: two blocks, he thoroughly Oh played Rudy Gobert. But that

338
00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:45,240
Speaker 3: was It was a lot of names like shuffling around

339
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 3: here from Steve Nash and the Nets coaching staff, well,

340
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:48,760
Speaker 3: a lot of guys that were you know, Joe Harris

341
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 3: to the bench and stuff like that. And for one

342
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 3: night it works out, But I guess Steve Nash says,

343
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,520
Speaker 3: we're just going to try things here and see what

344
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 3: what lineups sort of click. So far, so good with

345
00:15:57,800 --> 00:15:58,240
Speaker 3: this one.

346
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:02,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, not bad. A little experimentation by Steve. Curry is

347
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:03,480
Speaker 2: put in a place where he's got to make some

348
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:05,720
Speaker 2: decisions on what to do with Kevin Durant coming out,

349
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,160
Speaker 2: and I think it's kind of interesting that he decided

350
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 2: to go defense first, because that's definitely what this is.

351
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:12,760
Speaker 2: Jared Allen moves better than DeAndre Jordan at this point.

352
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 2: Bruce Brown a defensive player for the most part, Tory imprince.

353
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 2: Maybe he stretches the corp, but he's out there for

354
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 2: his defense. And Jeff Green you just want to highlight

355
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,320
Speaker 2: done from him every once in a while. But it

356
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:24,840
Speaker 2: was good for the Nets that they went and tried

357
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 2: to figure out their defense. We've been talking about it

358
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 2: for the past couple of shows that the Nets haven't

359
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:31,200
Speaker 2: committed to defense. This is a move by Steve Kersey

360
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 2: or sorry, by Steve Nash. Wrong coach Steve saying, yeah,

361
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 2: we're coming out and we're playing defense. They didn't actually

362
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 2: need to play defense so much last night, only ninety

363
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 2: six to the Jazz, which is impressive, but it's a blowout.

364
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,160
Speaker 2: Who knows the defensive stats there, But Jared Allen getting

365
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 2: the start, you gotta think he's going to be starting

366
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 2: from here on out. There's been a lot of talk.

367
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 2: Obviously the Internet wants him to start over DeAndre Jordan.

368
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:53,760
Speaker 2: He seems like the better player to me. The important

369
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 2: thing is that he has mostly been finishing their games,

370
00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,280
Speaker 2: which I think is a bigger deal, and he seems

371
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:00,920
Speaker 2: to be fine with come off the bench, knowing he'll

372
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 2: get his chance eventually. He did last night. He was incredible.

373
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,600
Speaker 2: He was being compared to Kenyon Martin. I love to

374
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,399
Speaker 2: see that felt like a throwback as well. But he

375
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:12,160
Speaker 2: was great, dominating Gobert. There's some great highlights. Crushed one

376
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:13,680
Speaker 2: on top of his head, blocked him a couple of

377
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:15,919
Speaker 2: times at the rim. He was an impact player and

378
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,479
Speaker 2: that's exactly what the Nets needed with Kde going out.

379
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:22,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, my thing with him is whether he's starting or finishing. Okay,

380
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 3: he just needs more minutes. I mean he's He's much

381
00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:28,320
Speaker 3: better than DeAndre Jordan's. I love him. I've loved his

382
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:30,639
Speaker 3: games basically since he was a rookie. He is just

383
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,879
Speaker 3: a great you know, third fourth guy. If he's like

384
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:35,760
Speaker 3: that type of in the pecking order on your team. Man,

385
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 3: you got a really good squad. I loved what he did.

386
00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:40,960
Speaker 3: He also said this. He credited a change of his

387
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:46,040
Speaker 3: pregame meal from pasta with pesto sauce to pasta with

388
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:49,520
Speaker 3: Alfredo sauce for his season high in points and rebounds

389
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:52,240
Speaker 3: in last night's game. I had to get your take

390
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 3: on this, because you're a big pesto man.

391
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 5: Big pesto, big homemade pesto.

392
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:56,440
Speaker 1: Go.

393
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:56,880
Speaker 6: Yeah.

394
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 5: I love the basil in there.

395
00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:01,320
Speaker 3: So he switched it up with the creamier, thicker Elfred.

396
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:01,720
Speaker 2: Yeah.

397
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:04,720
Speaker 5: Interesting, interesting choice there, the sort of dairy option, which

398
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,639
Speaker 5: is probably not my profet. He didn't specify what type

399
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 5: of pasta he was using, either, did he. That's what

400
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 5: we need to find out, really the sauce here, you know,

401
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:15,960
Speaker 5: is he going with a what did he going with?

402
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 5: A ravioliatoni? Just a flain Spaghetti doesn't Spaghetti doesn't go

403
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 5: all that well pesto. Usually you need something a little

404
00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,440
Speaker 5: more curly and they're a little shorter, a little stuff

405
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 5: that's your favorite my favorite pasta, Well, that's a tough one.

406
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:34,439
Speaker 5: I probably I mean knock, he doesn't really count as pasta,

407
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:34,720
Speaker 5: does it.

408
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:38,080
Speaker 2: It's a gray area.

409
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:39,960
Speaker 5: It's because it's potato, is it.

410
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 2: I mean it's not really.

411
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,359
Speaker 5: I mean probably I'm probably going to default back to

412
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 5: the fusilli.

413
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:47,080
Speaker 2: I like.

414
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:50,400
Speaker 3: You just watched sin Felt bro.

415
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,159
Speaker 5: Yeah, that that is a great one with Crme Mom

416
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 5: when he calls he makes it silly Jerry because he's silly.

417
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 3: Pasta trey.

418
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 2: Uh cavatapi. A favorite pasta depends on the sauce trick question,

419
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 2: that's right answered.

420
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:17,040
Speaker 5: I will say this ravioli is great, but you cannot

421
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 5: put like a lobster in a ravioli or anything like that.

422
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,679
Speaker 5: You get those in like try to Joe's I have

423
00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:26,679
Speaker 5: lobster ravioli, Like no, no, you can't do it like that.

424
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,680
Speaker 5: It's going to be more vegetable. Uh in there for the.

425
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:35,359
Speaker 3: Okay, I will say insane. I feel bad. I actually

426
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:38,639
Speaker 3: felt bad for the jazz fans last night because I

427
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 3: don't know. I have nothing to back this up, Like

428
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,199
Speaker 3: I haven't crunched the numbers or ever gone back and

429
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 3: looked at other shows. But it feels like, to me,

430
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:47,560
Speaker 3: tell me if I'm wrong. Guys that like on a

431
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:49,840
Speaker 3: night where there's not a lot of games, and then

432
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 3: of course we're going to be talking about it the

433
00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:54,200
Speaker 3: next day and it's like, oh, this Jazz Nets game,

434
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:56,760
Speaker 3: Like you said, You're like, oh, that's you know, that's intriguing.

435
00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 3: The O KD is maybe more competitive. The Jazz has

436
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,240
Speaker 3: been playing all right, you know, like, well this could

437
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:03,080
Speaker 3: we could be talking about Utah. That's what I'm getting

438
00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:06,040
Speaker 3: at here. Yeah, and then they lay a stinker and

439
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 3: you know they're just like sort of forgotten about and

440
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 3: with gloss over them. I feel like that happens with

441
00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:14,320
Speaker 3: the Jazz. Yeah, with our show, I don't know what

442
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:16,399
Speaker 3: it is. And then I think the flip of it

443
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 3: is they have like really good Friday and eight performances

444
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:21,840
Speaker 3: and like winner of something, you know what I mean.

445
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:23,800
Speaker 3: It's like Mitchell will go for forty and then they're

446
00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:25,639
Speaker 3: you know, it's buried because we're not talking about on

447
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,960
Speaker 3: the weekend again. It just feels that way to me.

448
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:30,160
Speaker 3: I don't know it does.

449
00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:32,639
Speaker 5: Last night's game was a real snooze and again a

450
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:35,119
Speaker 5: great opportunity for Utah to get a win against a

451
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 5: team that has been struggling a little bit and without

452
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:39,960
Speaker 5: their best player. But instead they lay an egg from

453
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,560
Speaker 5: the start, and you just was like, where's the comeback?

454
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:45,080
Speaker 5: Because Mike Conley, surprisingly, I don't know if you guys

455
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 5: knew this that he was leading the team in scoring

456
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:47,919
Speaker 5: prior to last night. I'm not sure if he is

457
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 5: now because Mitchell had thirty one. I think Conley only

458
00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:52,760
Speaker 5: had ten in the end, so so Mitchell was probably

459
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 5: overtaken him. But it was like, Okay, he's starting to

460
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:56,840
Speaker 5: fit into that role a little bit more than he

461
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:58,920
Speaker 5: did last season. And again, bugg Downham should tald about

462
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:02,200
Speaker 5: him a lot. He can lie up anytime. Joe Ingles

463
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:03,680
Speaker 5: can be good as well. He can get it going.

464
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,520
Speaker 5: But they were just kind of like ah not last night,

465
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 5: not interested. And again you know Joe Harris coming off

466
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 5: the bench, so it was like a defensive look here

467
00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:14,600
Speaker 5: from the nets, and it was almost like the Jazz

468
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:17,680
Speaker 5: had no CounterPunch or no way of sort of firing

469
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 5: back on the nets. And it was a real snoozer

470
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:21,320
Speaker 5: in the end.

471
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:25,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, Donovan Mitchell, I believe averaging twenty two basically points

472
00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:28,480
Speaker 3: per game, and conn Lee's there at nineteen, so not

473
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 3: far behind. And then you got Colbert at fourteen and

474
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:33,359
Speaker 3: thirteen doing his thing, and yeah, I mean there are

475
00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:35,760
Speaker 3: four and three. I'm not saying the Jazz are like brutal.

476
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:38,440
Speaker 3: I still like them, but again, they have this habit

477
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,280
Speaker 3: of putting up stinkers on a note where you could

478
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:43,240
Speaker 3: really focus on them and want to focus on them

479
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 3: and maybe talk about them in great detail, and they

480
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:45,399
Speaker 3: just got hammered.

481
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,359
Speaker 2: All right, you gotta play well on a five game night.

482
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,200
Speaker 2: You still want to get talked about on No Dogs.

483
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:51,760
Speaker 2: But I'm also willing to pump the brakes on the

484
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:53,720
Speaker 2: Jazz because it kind of feels like this every single year.

485
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,280
Speaker 2: Slow out of the gate. Then they'll have a month

486
00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,720
Speaker 2: where they win eighteen out of twenty games or something. Right,

487
00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:01,440
Speaker 2: So we'll talk about you a bunch of March Jazz.

488
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 3: Probably all right, next next game you'll kitchen. The Nuggets

489
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:08,080
Speaker 3: regroup to rally past the Wolves one twenty three, one sixteen.

490
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:09,920
Speaker 3: It came back in this one Trey big takeaway.

491
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a rally, but to me, it didn't

492
00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 2: really feel like the Nuggets were ever in danger of

493
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 2: losing this game because Nicola Jokic is making an MVP

494
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 2: case right now, and it wasn't actually that hard for

495
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:24,439
Speaker 2: him last night. He had thirty five points. He went

496
00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 2: twelve for twenty from the field, fifteen boards, a measly

497
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,119
Speaker 2: six assists. Come on, man, step up your game. But

498
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:34,199
Speaker 2: watching Jokic, there were so many times he would just

499
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 2: catch the ball turn and there was nobody even touching

500
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:39,840
Speaker 2: him at the free throw line, underneath the basket. There's

501
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 2: just no resistance inside from the Timberwolves at all. Obviously

502
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,200
Speaker 2: no Carl Town's last night. There was a lot of

503
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:50,399
Speaker 2: skinny what's his name, Jared Vanderbilt, Like that guy's a

504
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:52,720
Speaker 2: little too skinny to be able to handle Jokic in

505
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 2: the back guys.

506
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:55,280
Speaker 3: Though he was fun to watch.

507
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 2: He was definitely fun to watch, but he's not really

508
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,879
Speaker 2: in Jocica's class right now. You know, there was some

509
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:05,360
Speaker 2: nas read minutes. It just was the resistance wasn't there

510
00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:07,480
Speaker 2: from the Timberwolves. They don't have the defense for it.

511
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:09,199
Speaker 2: But it was great to see Yokich come out and

512
00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,760
Speaker 2: dominate once again. And he's you know, if if the

513
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:14,760
Speaker 2: Nuggets had won a couple of games earlier in the week,

514
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:16,680
Speaker 2: we were probably be talking about him at the top

515
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,920
Speaker 2: of the MVP. Don't you think I'd bean the guy's

516
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,199
Speaker 2: going to be leading the league in assists as a

517
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:25,959
Speaker 2: big man. Incredible stuff. But if you are the Timberwolves.

518
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:27,760
Speaker 2: Some good things to take away from this game. The

519
00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:31,240
Speaker 2: Wancho revenge game. That was pretty wild. I think we're

520
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 2: probably the biggest Wancho Hernan Gomez fans in the world.

521
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 2: Twenty five last night he was balling for the Timberwolves

522
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:40,120
Speaker 2: and Anthony Edwards. He is a fun watch as well.

523
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,480
Speaker 2: He was taking the ball strong to the hoop. He

524
00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:44,359
Speaker 2: had a huge dunk. He had a nice little jelly

525
00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:46,200
Speaker 2: on the break. The guy's been much more of a

526
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:47,640
Speaker 2: driver than I thought he was going to be coming

527
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 2: into the league. The scouting report on him was that

528
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:51,280
Speaker 2: he's going to take one hundred step back jumpers. He

529
00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:52,960
Speaker 2: still takes them, but he also gets to the hoop.

530
00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 2: Looks like an NBA player. That was fun to watch,

531
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:56,920
Speaker 2: but you gotta play defense eventually.

532
00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:58,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, what do you think about what Trey said there?

533
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 3: Lead denvers three and four. If they're five and two,

534
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:05,119
Speaker 3: is your kitch like at the top of everybody's MVP

535
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:06,600
Speaker 3: leaderboard this early in the season.

536
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:09,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think so, especially with Jamal Murray sort of struggling.

537
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,520
Speaker 5: Struggles continue there because Yokich's leading that team. He's doing everything.

538
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:15,680
Speaker 3: And if you've got and it's not just the stats,

539
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:17,440
Speaker 3: if you got to you gotta watch a Nugget game.

540
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:22,879
Speaker 3: Every single possession goes through him. Yeah oh yeah, like everything,

541
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:25,840
Speaker 3: either he's bringing it up as the giant sun footer

542
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:28,359
Speaker 3: or then you know, the guards bring it up and

543
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:30,680
Speaker 3: then it's past to him. Let's operate, you know. It's

544
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,360
Speaker 3: it is really wild to watch that every single player

545
00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:34,680
Speaker 3: goes through So he interrupt.

546
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:35,800
Speaker 5: You there, Yeah, no, no, I mean, but that's it.

547
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 5: He's got the skill set as well where he doesn't

548
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:39,840
Speaker 5: like he scored thirty five as you mentioned there last night,

549
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:43,040
Speaker 5: but he doesn't ever feel to me like he's a scorer. First,

550
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:44,840
Speaker 5: you know, he just wants to get his players involved,

551
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:47,320
Speaker 5: get his teammates involved. But one thing I learned last

552
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:49,919
Speaker 5: night was that if you get a technical fail for

553
00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 5: hanging on the rim, it doesn't count as a personal

554
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:53,800
Speaker 5: technical fan.

555
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:55,720
Speaker 3: Right, it's sort of like an unsportsman like, it's.

556
00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:59,520
Speaker 5: A non unsportsman like an it's negative there.

557
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, very weird.

558
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:03,080
Speaker 5: Because Jokic last night threw down a couple of dunks.

559
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:05,800
Speaker 5: With the first one he goes baseline dunks it and

560
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:07,880
Speaker 5: it does give himself a chin up, gets a technical

561
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,399
Speaker 5: foul for it, and then only like a minute or

562
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 5: so later, he's drawing at the ref and he gets

563
00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:12,440
Speaker 5: another tech.

564
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 3: You're like, oh, he's gone.

565
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,119
Speaker 5: Yeah, but he doesn't get ejected for that, So he

566
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,879
Speaker 5: gets fine for the personal for the for the non

567
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:22,280
Speaker 5: unsportsmanlike but it doesn't count as a personal tech, which.

568
00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:24,840
Speaker 3: Is weird because why wouldn't it.

569
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:28,199
Speaker 5: Count as a personal technical foul? I mean, I understand

570
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 5: the illegal defense ones goes against the team, okay, because

571
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,959
Speaker 5: that's like a team concept, But how is this not

572
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:36,840
Speaker 5: a personal technical foul? And how did I not even

573
00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 5: know this? I've been following this game forever because John

574
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:42,159
Speaker 5: Krasinski and I last night were exchanging a little bit

575
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,960
Speaker 5: on Twitter, like he was like, oh, Yokich is gone,

576
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:46,399
Speaker 5: and I was like, yeah, I'm pretty sure that's his

577
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:46,920
Speaker 5: second tech.

578
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:47,400
Speaker 3: He's gone.

579
00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:49,359
Speaker 5: And then and then he stayed out there and it

580
00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:51,120
Speaker 5: wasn't until he looked into it and we found out

581
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:54,000
Speaker 5: that it doesn't count as a technical foul against your

582
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,119
Speaker 5: own So does that mean? I mean, you can get

583
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 5: as many of those as you want throughout a game.

584
00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,560
Speaker 5: You can get five of those technicals. You know, if

585
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 5: you keep hanging on the rim and it doesn't count

586
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,080
Speaker 5: against you, I guess, so, yeah, he wouldn't be tysed.

587
00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:08,359
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, yeah. But to see Nikola Jokic actually do

588
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:10,399
Speaker 5: a chin up on the rim that should not be

589
00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 5: a technical foul. He should be applauded. And then he

590
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,679
Speaker 5: had another thrown out later on. But it's so funny

591
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:19,800
Speaker 5: because he's just not a high leaper. So when he

592
00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 5: does get up for a dunk, it's like, wow, this guy.

593
00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:23,639
Speaker 5: It takes all his effort to get up there and

594
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:27,760
Speaker 5: throw it down. But fun to watch. Yeah, crazy stuff, man,

595
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:31,040
Speaker 5: crazy stuff. You learn something new every day. This guy's

596
00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:37,120
Speaker 5: sixty eight years old and still learning. But also Nikola

597
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 5: Jokic must have known that, I guess, because you know

598
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 5: he got the tea. He nearly got another tech after

599
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:44,640
Speaker 5: that as well. He was really pushing it last night.

600
00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:46,439
Speaker 5: He was really trying to get himself thrown out. But

601
00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:48,879
Speaker 5: you know what, the Wolves, they could end up with

602
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:51,280
Speaker 5: the worst record in the NBA this season, especially if

603
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:53,800
Speaker 5: Towns is out for a prolong period here, because I

604
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:56,360
Speaker 5: actually thought they were competitive last night. Russell was good,

605
00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:58,680
Speaker 5: but it did always feel that the Nuggets were just

606
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:00,879
Speaker 5: going to get there because as I just there a

607
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 5: better take, you know, not playing at home. But yeah,

608
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:05,440
Speaker 5: when you look at the Wolves and you just think,

609
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:08,120
Speaker 5: oh man, it's really hot. Say, they're not a great

610
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:11,399
Speaker 5: defensive team offensively, They've got some talent there, but just

611
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:14,680
Speaker 5: not enough if the other team has a decent defense

612
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:15,280
Speaker 5: to throw at it.

613
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:16,960
Speaker 3: So yeah, it could.

614
00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:18,600
Speaker 5: Be another rough, rough season there in Minnesota.

615
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:20,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like to see Denver turning it around here too.

616
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,440
Speaker 3: You're right, Jamal Murray, you know, is not Bubble Murray

617
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 3: by any means. Y'll Kich is leading the way. But

618
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 3: Jamichael Green is back to this team, or you know,

619
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:31,720
Speaker 3: with this team, I should say. And by playing the

620
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:33,760
Speaker 3: last couple of games, I think he played really well

621
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 3: in his two game series versus Minnesota. Hit three threes

622
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 3: in both games, grabbed eleven rebounds total. He had seventeen

623
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 3: specifically off the bench last night. Those were key. And

624
00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:49,560
Speaker 3: Will Barton this his frantic energy is very I don't

625
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:51,479
Speaker 3: know if it's because the way Yokud sort of plays,

626
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 3: I don't know what, Like maybe it sticks out more

627
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:56,560
Speaker 3: than it would on another team, but like it feels needed,

628
00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,239
Speaker 3: just that that manic energy. You ever watch him when

629
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:02,119
Speaker 3: they like go to like the timeout like camera, like

630
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 3: we're in the huddle, they're on their chairs and stuff

631
00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:07,080
Speaker 3: like that. He is always like just like lobbing around.

632
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 3: He's like, no, you can never stop moving, and he

633
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:11,680
Speaker 3: of course does that on the floor. But twenty seven

634
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:14,639
Speaker 3: and three last night, and I think he's very important

635
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:16,399
Speaker 3: to their success moving forward to and I like that

636
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:18,359
Speaker 3: he talks up Yolkic too. He had he had a

637
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 3: quote like saying, like he tells Yolkic before every game,

638
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,280
Speaker 3: just go out there and win MVP, Like you're the

639
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:26,359
Speaker 3: best player in the world. If you want to, would

640
00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:29,159
Speaker 3: you know, like be aggressive and no one can stop you.

641
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,680
Speaker 3: And you know, some nights it works definitely with Yokich.

642
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:33,439
Speaker 3: So he was big down the stretch thirteen of his

643
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:38,040
Speaker 3: thirty five and the fourty sort of again, it's amazing everything,

644
00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:41,200
Speaker 3: every every single play goes through him. So he's either scoring,

645
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 3: you know, or attempting a shot, or of course trying

646
00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 3: to set a guy up or setting up the next

647
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:47,960
Speaker 3: thing that sets up a guy, like the hockey assist.

648
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 3: It's it's wild. So good win by Denver and Yep

649
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 3: a couple more, you know, they put together a little

650
00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:56,760
Speaker 3: streak here, four wins in a row. Whatever. Yeah, the people,

651
00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:58,920
Speaker 3: the national media will start taking notice of what the

652
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:01,560
Speaker 3: heck yolkicch is really doing there. I know the diehards

653
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 3: know what's up and know how special he is, but

654
00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:05,880
Speaker 3: you'll start seeing it on some of your other shows

655
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 3: that maybe don't follow the league all that closely. All right,

656
00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:10,440
Speaker 3: our next game here, Lakers stretched the winning streak to four,

657
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:12,760
Speaker 3: four straight for them. They beat the Grizzlies ninety four

658
00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:16,040
Speaker 3: ninety two. Honestly, there's not a lot to take from

659
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 3: this one. The first one is the score may jump

660
00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:20,200
Speaker 3: out at you. Ninety four ninety two. Yeah, it was.

661
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 3: You know, it was a defensive minded game. The Anthony

662
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,800
Speaker 3: Melton actually had a wicked block on Anthony Davis and

663
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:28,960
Speaker 3: then dunked it, punched one home on the other end

664
00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:30,920
Speaker 3: with about six minute remaining, And that's what it looked like.

665
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,960
Speaker 3: The Grizzlies might win this game. But you didn't think

666
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,280
Speaker 3: that if you saw the game prior, because this was

667
00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:38,480
Speaker 3: another like mini series where the Lakers had just played

668
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:40,120
Speaker 3: the Grizzlies like two nights prior. I guess it was

669
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:42,640
Speaker 3: on Sunday night, and in that one which I watched,

670
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:47,280
Speaker 3: Lebron just took over. He literally just decided, Okay, games close,

671
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 3: I'm going to start to try now, and I'm just

672
00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 3: gonna put my stamp on this game. We'll get the victory.

673
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 3: He sort of did it again last night. I mean

674
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 3: it was it was the same movie. It really really was.

675
00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,840
Speaker 3: La trailed seventy nine to seventy seven with about five

676
00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:02,120
Speaker 3: minutes ago, and and then Lebron and Ad he got

677
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:04,040
Speaker 3: some help in this one. They went on a combined

678
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:06,000
Speaker 3: nine to two run. They had the lead, and they

679
00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 3: held on for dear life at the end. It got

680
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:11,840
Speaker 3: really weld at the end with some crazy turnovers. But Lebron,

681
00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:15,880
Speaker 3: I mean, it's it's wild to watch a guy coasting

682
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:18,800
Speaker 3: through games. And now his version of coasting is still

683
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:22,920
Speaker 3: damn impressive, but he really is. I'm not exaggerating. The

684
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:26,640
Speaker 3: Lakers there as a team are doing this, and I

685
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:27,880
Speaker 3: don't know if it's going to come back to buy

686
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:29,720
Speaker 3: them in the ass, but it's pretty amazing to watch

687
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:32,880
Speaker 3: them sort of just half asset for you know, two

688
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:34,560
Speaker 3: to three quarters and then turn it on when they

689
00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:34,880
Speaker 3: need to.

690
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 5: Did you see any resemblance to the Lebronto to Lebron

691
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:40,880
Speaker 5: out there last night, because it felt like that to me.

692
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:42,520
Speaker 3: Where it was like, I mean, he knows he's going

693
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 3: to win the game, but.

694
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:45,240
Speaker 5: Some of the shots he hit as well, you know,

695
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:48,120
Speaker 5: just those those crazy sort of fallaway step backs that

696
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,880
Speaker 5: like just go perfectly through the net as well, it

697
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:52,640
Speaker 5: was kind of like he was just toying with him.

698
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:54,959
Speaker 5: And I think a part of it was Dylan Brooks

699
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 5: had that little show of strength there with Lebron where

700
00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:59,280
Speaker 5: he got the ball. Lebron was on his butt and

701
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:01,480
Speaker 5: Dylan Brooks in and got the foul and he did

702
00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:04,520
Speaker 5: the big flex. And this also reminds me a little

703
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:06,240
Speaker 5: bit of like the Last Dance where we saw Michael

704
00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:08,960
Speaker 5: Jordans sometimes needed anything just to motivate. And well, here

705
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 5: we are on a Tuesday night in January and Lebron's

706
00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:13,760
Speaker 5: in Memphis. He knows he can win this game. And

707
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:15,720
Speaker 5: it was almost like, oh, thank you, thank you Dylan

708
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:17,560
Speaker 5: Brooks for giving me just that little bit of like,

709
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:19,760
Speaker 5: all right, now I have to show this guy because

710
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:21,200
Speaker 5: you saw it later on as well when he hit

711
00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:25,080
Speaker 5: that crazy fallaway he did drop the two Yeah, I

712
00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:26,720
Speaker 5: don't know if you saw as well. And I play earlier,

713
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,520
Speaker 5: Lebron was blowing kisses to the Memphis bench as well,

714
00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:32,440
Speaker 5: So I didn't see that. Yeah, so so he was

715
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:33,720
Speaker 5: kind of I think that's what it was.

716
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:34,160
Speaker 2: Last night.

717
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,000
Speaker 5: He's like, all right, I have to win this game,

718
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:38,280
Speaker 5: but someone give me, give me a reason. Hit right up,

719
00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:40,680
Speaker 5: and Dylan Brooks did that and then it was great,

720
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 5: see because it is just so much fun when you

721
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:44,840
Speaker 5: just see Lebron just just get into that rhythm where

722
00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:47,800
Speaker 5: he's like, Okay, thanks for coming guys. Now I'm going

723
00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:50,520
Speaker 5: to win this game and it's good night, greeted Memphis.

724
00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:51,960
Speaker 3: Yeah. Anything from this.

725
00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:55,160
Speaker 2: One, Trey Well, I didn't watch this one very closely.

726
00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:57,640
Speaker 2: I did see a fast break where Grease and Allen

727
00:31:57,720 --> 00:31:59,920
Speaker 2: just kind of tipped the body on this Valentounis running

728
00:31:59,920 --> 00:32:01,440
Speaker 2: dow on the middle of the lane. He finished with

729
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 2: a very slow layup and it may be misplaying pickup ball.

730
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:05,680
Speaker 2: I was like, this would have been the biggest highlight

731
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:07,840
Speaker 2: from any game on a Wednesday night if we were

732
00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 2: out there playing. But you look at the box scores

733
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,920
Speaker 2: and it's just evident how much the Lakers are in

734
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,400
Speaker 2: flip the switch mode this season. Every one of their

735
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:18,840
Speaker 2: starters except for Dennis Shruder, who is a minus one,

736
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:22,640
Speaker 2: has massive plus minus splits for last night, whereas the

737
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:25,080
Speaker 2: bench was struggling. And that's the difference there. Once the

738
00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:27,280
Speaker 2: Lakers put in their starting lineup, the game's going to

739
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:29,479
Speaker 2: be over because Lebron and eighty know exactly what they

740
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,360
Speaker 2: need to do to get a win. In a scenario

741
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:34,520
Speaker 2: against the Grizzlies, it's not necessarily needing to play one

742
00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:37,680
Speaker 2: hundred percent strength the entire night. We're worried about the

743
00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:41,320
Speaker 2: Lakers taking games off last season coming in, you know,

744
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 2: because we're like Lebron, he knows his body. The guy

745
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:46,360
Speaker 2: manages the season as well as anybody does. That wasn't

746
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:48,360
Speaker 2: the case for last season. The Lakers were one hundred

747
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:50,880
Speaker 2: percent locked in we're winning the title from day one.

748
00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:52,920
Speaker 2: This year, they came in, they said, we already got

749
00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:55,840
Speaker 2: the title. We had to play seventy five days ago,

750
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 2: so let's take it a little chill this year, turn

751
00:32:57,880 --> 00:32:59,960
Speaker 2: it on when we need to. They're preserving themselves by

752
00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:03,200
Speaker 2: load managing during games. Lebron's quarterbacking out there. The guy

753
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,520
Speaker 2: doesn't put in the effort until he needs to absolutely score.

754
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:09,000
Speaker 2: And it's fine because he knows exactly what to do.

755
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 2: Impressive stuff from the Lakers. They're not even trying hard

756
00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:13,600
Speaker 2: and they're the best team in the West.

757
00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:15,640
Speaker 3: And the Grizzlies are, of course playing with other two

758
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:17,920
Speaker 3: best players and John Moran and Jaron Jackson junior. They

759
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,120
Speaker 3: put up a fight. I mean, it's nice to have

760
00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:23,400
Speaker 3: Melton back. You know, what do they call him? Mister

761
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:25,680
Speaker 3: do Something? I think is his nickname, which is a

762
00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:28,080
Speaker 3: fascinating nickname. But he does a little bit of everything.

763
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 3: He was helping, of course, stay in this game and

764
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:34,240
Speaker 3: give them a lead late, and they fought. They put

765
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 3: up a valiant effort, but you know, it was a

766
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:39,960
Speaker 3: little big brother little brother scenario there where it's like, Okay,

767
00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:41,760
Speaker 3: this is a little too close here, I'm just gonna

768
00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:44,000
Speaker 3: pull out this victory and what are you gonna do? Yeah,

769
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:48,080
Speaker 3: you're right. Lebron is load managing during games, and we

770
00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:49,560
Speaker 3: talked about it. I think a big part of it

771
00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:52,120
Speaker 3: is like, hey, well I could take the night off.

772
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:53,600
Speaker 3: I mean, I could just take the night off, but

773
00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:57,320
Speaker 3: I play rack up twenty to twenty five points. That's

774
00:33:57,320 --> 00:33:59,760
Speaker 3: gonna help in the total accumulation of catching.

775
00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:00,640
Speaker 1: You know.

776
00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 3: Kareem Abdul Jabbar for the most points everyone, why not,

777
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:07,080
Speaker 3: that's what he's doing it. It's really astonishing totally.

778
00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:09,600
Speaker 2: The jumper is money enough now that he can hang

779
00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:11,440
Speaker 2: out on the perimeter, right, Like he can make rees

780
00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:13,400
Speaker 2: at a high enough rate, he can hit these fallaways

781
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:14,920
Speaker 2: at a high enough rate that he can just hang

782
00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 2: out on the perimeter not take a million bumps. Yeah,

783
00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:20,520
Speaker 2: pick teams apart, like I remember in the bubble watching

784
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:24,040
Speaker 2: him pick apart zones from Miami. It's similar stuff. When

785
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:26,120
Speaker 2: Lebron is just out there like moving people around with

786
00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:28,319
Speaker 2: his eyes. It feels like until there's a split second

787
00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:30,160
Speaker 2: where he can fit a pass in. And that's why

788
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:31,759
Speaker 2: he's one of the goats for sure.

789
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,400
Speaker 3: All right, final game from last night, Spurs stop a

790
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:38,200
Speaker 3: four game skid one sixteen, one thirteen victory over the Clippers.

791
00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:41,560
Speaker 3: We sort of alluded to this one. Crazy crazy Spurs

792
00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:44,920
Speaker 3: up a massive amount. The Clippers have been playing in

793
00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:47,520
Speaker 3: weird games this year. Man, They are either up thirty

794
00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:50,760
Speaker 3: or down thirty, feels like in every single game they've played.

795
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 3: But it came back, but in the end Spurs pull

796
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:55,879
Speaker 3: it out. Lea anything to take away from this one,

797
00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:57,320
Speaker 3: your assie mate, pretty.

798
00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:59,960
Speaker 5: Miller, Let's see when this Biznaydawi and Hood has cut,

799
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,560
Speaker 5: Popovich go to Paddy thrill Is coming in off the bench.

800
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:04,960
Speaker 5: I think in that first quarter he hit four threes

801
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:07,239
Speaker 5: in like the last ninety seconds of that first quarter.

802
00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:09,160
Speaker 5: It was incredible performance, and he finished with eighth for

803
00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:10,440
Speaker 5: the game, twenty seven points.

804
00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 2: Missed one free throw.

805
00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:13,640
Speaker 5: At the end, which really could have seen it kept

806
00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:16,239
Speaker 5: the Clippers within a chance of tying the game least,

807
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:18,320
Speaker 5: but they weren't able to do that. No, Paul George

808
00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:20,319
Speaker 5: here for the Clippers, and we'll find out tonight if

809
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:23,719
Speaker 5: he was lured managing or if he was genuinely sore

810
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:26,080
Speaker 5: with that ankle there last night. I suspect it was

811
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,400
Speaker 5: probably a little bit more of the former rather than

812
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:33,040
Speaker 5: the latter. But yeah, the Clippers just a weird team again,

813
00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,720
Speaker 5: as you mentioned there, like they were killing the Suns

814
00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:38,440
Speaker 5: on what night, Sunday night that was, and then the

815
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 5: Suns nearly pulled that out, and then last night they

816
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:43,120
Speaker 5: were half asleep in that first half, got themselves back

817
00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:45,080
Speaker 5: into it late, but the Spurs managed to hold on.

818
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:49,360
Speaker 5: I will say those Spurs jerseys look unreal.

819
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:49,520
Speaker 3: On the court.

820
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:52,719
Speaker 5: I thought they looked gorgeous out there last night, the

821
00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:56,080
Speaker 5: Fiesta jerseys, and you know you saw as well, like

822
00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:58,400
Speaker 5: that the young stars, you know, the Keldon Johnson, the

823
00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:02,880
Speaker 5: Loneie Walker, Dejonte Murray. Like again, how they went on

824
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:04,919
Speaker 5: that four game losing streak is kind of weird because

825
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:07,560
Speaker 5: they've got some very good, young, talented athletic players who

826
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:10,719
Speaker 5: played defense. But then last night having LaMarcus and DeRozan

827
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:13,680
Speaker 5: out there was just the experience. Perhaps that's maybe that's

828
00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:16,839
Speaker 5: what they've been missing, because I thought they're a good

829
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:19,279
Speaker 5: team with the young athletic guys and then you have

830
00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:21,239
Speaker 5: the veterans out there who can just steer your team home.

831
00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:23,399
Speaker 5: And Patty Mills as well, did that late in the game.

832
00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:25,160
Speaker 5: He's a veteran. Now, of course we don't make him

833
00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:27,520
Speaker 5: one of the young guys anymore. But the funny thing

834
00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:30,520
Speaker 5: about Patty Mills is the shot selection has never really

835
00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:32,800
Speaker 5: changed throughout his career. Some of those shots are a

836
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:34,640
Speaker 5: little bit wild, a little bit early in the shot, cluck,

837
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:35,400
Speaker 5: they just go in.

838
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:36,360
Speaker 3: Now that's the difference.

839
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:38,720
Speaker 5: I think that's the difference. When you look at Patti's

840
00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:40,600
Speaker 5: highlights from his Portland days and even when he first

841
00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:42,439
Speaker 5: got to San Antonio, a couple of those shots, who's

842
00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:45,960
Speaker 5: just like but now he's just it's the repetition, it's

843
00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:48,080
Speaker 5: the experience, and he knocks him in. It was It

844
00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:49,920
Speaker 5: was great to see him have such a great performance.

845
00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:52,520
Speaker 3: He's shooting fifty seven point five percent from three on

846
00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:55,600
Speaker 3: the season right now. He's on fire. Yeah, he shoots

847
00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:57,520
Speaker 3: a lot of them, as you would if you shot

848
00:36:57,520 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 3: the well. They hit twenty threes of Spurs. I think

849
00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:01,920
Speaker 3: Tyer franchise wreck. That's a ton for them. Speaking of

850
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:04,719
Speaker 3: the Clippers, I remember this tweet from Tim Reynolds last night.

851
00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:06,120
Speaker 3: I remember I liked it for a reason so I

852
00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:09,719
Speaker 3: could bring it up on the show. Listen to this.

853
00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:12,799
Speaker 3: This season, games the Clippers have played, they trailed by

854
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:15,960
Speaker 3: fifty seven to the Mavericks. They led by thirty one

855
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:18,920
Speaker 3: against Minnesota, They led by thirty one against Phoenix, They

856
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:21,759
Speaker 3: led by thirty against Portland. They led by twenty four

857
00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:24,960
Speaker 3: against Denver. They trailed by twenty four against the Spurs

858
00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:27,680
Speaker 3: last night when we're talking about here. They led by

859
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:29,880
Speaker 3: twenty two against the Lakers, and they trailed by twenty

860
00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:34,200
Speaker 3: against the Jazz. Twenty or more up or down in

861
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:38,799
Speaker 3: every game they've played this year, that's really really strange. Yeah,

862
00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:40,799
Speaker 3: that's a big gap. I mean a lot of those

863
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:43,640
Speaker 3: were thirties for crying out loud, if not more so

864
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:46,400
Speaker 3: weird weird stuff. But they missed Paul George, no doubt.

865
00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:49,600
Speaker 3: I mean, guys, he's having a good year. Obviously helps

866
00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:51,600
Speaker 3: your permanent defense too. Go ahead, right, he's having a

867
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:54,399
Speaker 3: good year. But a guy that's not having a good year.

868
00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:57,680
Speaker 3: Luke the Nard Dog. Canard just nine points last night,

869
00:37:57,719 --> 00:37:59,640
Speaker 3: three of ten. He's shooting all right from the field

870
00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:02,000
Speaker 3: so far this season, He's forty three percent from three.

871
00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:04,120
Speaker 3: But I think he was supposed to kind of be

872
00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:07,160
Speaker 3: the third initiator perhaps for the Clippers this season. You know,

873
00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:10,640
Speaker 3: Landry Shammant went out in the trade kind of more

874
00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,800
Speaker 3: just the shooter that compared to Canard, where Canards should

875
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:16,200
Speaker 3: theoretically be able to handle the ball and pick and roll,

876
00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:18,480
Speaker 3: make some plays and space the floor.

877
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 2: He's been underwhelming so far. He's only been in double

878
00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:24,360
Speaker 2: digits two games so far this season. And if the

879
00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:27,480
Speaker 2: Clippers are going to go further this season then they

880
00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:29,160
Speaker 2: went last season, they're going to need more from him,

881
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:30,960
Speaker 2: because all the talk in the off season was they

882
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:33,560
Speaker 2: need another secondary creator they need somebody else who's going

883
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:34,440
Speaker 2: to be able to make plays.

884
00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:37,040
Speaker 5: Well, we've lost him.

885
00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:39,640
Speaker 3: He froze from me. He's so pumped, still over.

886
00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:42,120
Speaker 5: The back o there is Oh did you put a

887
00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:45,880
Speaker 5: spell on him? Lee? Maybe he's just watching more highlights

888
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:47,879
Speaker 5: of the Bulls last night. He's just captivated and.

889
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:49,120
Speaker 2: Just all right.

890
00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:52,200
Speaker 3: Well, as we try and get Trey Kirby back, let's

891
00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:54,400
Speaker 3: take a quick break to hear from our sponsors.

892
00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:56,520
Speaker 1: Yeah.

893
00:38:56,600 --> 00:39:00,480
Speaker 5: I got to get in on that cinnamon magic experience. Yes, yeah,

894
00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 5: because cinnamon on anything is great, So cinnamon cereal, I mean,

895
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:05,960
Speaker 5: cinnamon toast great, you know, great, But I want to

896
00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:07,799
Speaker 5: get it on the cinnamon on the magic spoon. I'm

897
00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:09,480
Speaker 5: sure it'd be incredible without the sugar in that.

898
00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:10,440
Speaker 2: It's got to be.

899
00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:11,600
Speaker 3: It's got to be, I would think.

900
00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:11,719
Speaker 1: So.

901
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:15,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I actually liked. I liked all of the flavors.

902
00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:17,920
Speaker 3: And I'm not a big cocoa cereal. Yeah, and I

903
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:20,600
Speaker 3: didn't even mind that one, but frost and my favorite

904
00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:22,600
Speaker 3: fruit is right there, and then the blueberry is really

905
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:24,640
Speaker 3: really good, and then I'd have cocoa ranked fourth. But

906
00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:27,440
Speaker 3: it was still delicious. I saw by the way I

907
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:31,200
Speaker 3: saw someone I don't know if it was on Instagram

908
00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:33,240
Speaker 3: DM or on Twitter. Maybe it was in the YouTube

909
00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:36,280
Speaker 3: commenting and somebody was like, I love your magic spoon

910
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:41,080
Speaker 3: ad reads, but come on, no one's buying cereal online.

911
00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:44,680
Speaker 3: Who buys cereal online? I said, well, first off, you

912
00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:47,520
Speaker 3: can buy anything on the exactly. Who doesn't do this

913
00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:50,919
Speaker 3: shopping online these days? I thought that was just weird. Sorry,

914
00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:52,400
Speaker 3: you're about to say something. We're you gonna say that?

915
00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:56,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, I can't really remember, but I think, oh, yeah, no, Well, like,

916
00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:58,200
Speaker 5: you know, you rank the cocoa fourth because you have

917
00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:00,640
Speaker 5: to rank them, of course, but it's like, you know,

918
00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:03,239
Speaker 5: it's almost like at the Olympics if there was a

919
00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:05,440
Speaker 5: fourth place as well, you're still doing It's still a

920
00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:07,440
Speaker 5: great place to finish fourth at that level.

921
00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:10,840
Speaker 3: You think, yeah, you think, you think? You think the

922
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:14,479
Speaker 3: guy that is the fourth best bobsledder in the world

923
00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:17,920
Speaker 3: is walking around with his chest puffed out look.

924
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:19,479
Speaker 5: He wants to be on the in the medals, among

925
00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:21,400
Speaker 5: the medals, of course, but you know his family and

926
00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:23,799
Speaker 5: friends are saying, listen, man, there's only three people in

927
00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:25,680
Speaker 5: the world better than you, like, in.

928
00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:28,000
Speaker 3: The whole world. So they were only better than you

929
00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:30,719
Speaker 3: on that given day, Yeah, exactly.

930
00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:33,520
Speaker 5: So, yeah, I mean, you know, of course people want

931
00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:35,279
Speaker 5: that top nudge, but not everyone can win it. Not

932
00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:37,719
Speaker 5: everyone can have the top the top spot on the

933
00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:38,399
Speaker 5: das there.

934
00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:42,520
Speaker 3: Do you think it's worse to be silver, second or fourth?

935
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:48,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean it depends if you I mean, because

936
00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 5: you can get defeated and get the silver medal, but

937
00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:54,160
Speaker 5: you can also like, like, you don't get defeated if

938
00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 5: you if you run second, if you know what I mean,

939
00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:58,439
Speaker 5: You know what I mean. Yeah, so if you lose

940
00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:00,960
Speaker 5: by half a second in the it's like, well you

941
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:04,000
Speaker 5: came second rather than getting defeated into second place, if

942
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:04,600
Speaker 5: you know what I mean.

943
00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:08,319
Speaker 3: Sure, sure, So what's your what's your answer? Well, I

944
00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:10,600
Speaker 3: guess you would you would you be content with a

945
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:14,640
Speaker 3: silver medal, you know, instead of no medal?

946
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:15,160
Speaker 6: Yeah?

947
00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:18,359
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think you'd want the silver medal. Yeah, I mean, yeah,

948
00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:21,759
Speaker 5: you'd want that silver metal. Wouldn't you show it after

949
00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:22,880
Speaker 5: the kids and the grandkids?

950
00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:27,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe bronze is the worst. I'd almost rather just

951
00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:27,959
Speaker 3: be fourth at that point.

952
00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:29,800
Speaker 5: Well, I see, I don't know what it was like

953
00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:32,840
Speaker 5: for Canada in the eighties and early nineties, but Australia,

954
00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:35,160
Speaker 5: most of our medals at the Olympics were bronze.

955
00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:35,480
Speaker 1: You know.

956
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:38,400
Speaker 5: It wasn't until wet around the two thousands when we

957
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:40,200
Speaker 5: started picking up a few more gold medals. But the

958
00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:44,040
Speaker 5: bronze was always like yeah.

959
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:45,120
Speaker 3: Well that's the thing. When you're not winning any medals,

960
00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:48,560
Speaker 3: then win was making the front front page of the newspaper.

961
00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:51,279
Speaker 3: But then when your country starts winning some medals, then

962
00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:52,600
Speaker 3: you win bronze and everyone's like.

963
00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:56,239
Speaker 5: Yeah, so you can you can win bronze, you know,

964
00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:58,279
Speaker 5: because you might be battling that person for fourth, so

965
00:41:58,320 --> 00:41:59,360
Speaker 5: you win that bronze.

966
00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:01,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, why keep saying it like that? I mean, every

967
00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:04,000
Speaker 3: Olympic event is different. Yeah, I know, that's what I'm saying.

968
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:04,680
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying.

969
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:06,800
Speaker 5: Like, you can win bronze or you can lose silver,

970
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:08,799
Speaker 5: you know what I mean. Like, so you finished with

971
00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:11,799
Speaker 5: a win, but you have to rank right right, right, right.

972
00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:14,480
Speaker 3: Right, Okay, I'm glad we've cleared that up. Are we

973
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:16,720
Speaker 3: stalling just to try and get trade back that baby?

974
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:19,520
Speaker 3: I don't know, maybe a little bit did it work?

975
00:42:23,160 --> 00:42:24,200
Speaker 4: Does not look good.

976
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:29,120
Speaker 3: He does not look good. Thought he was gonna he's

977
00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:32,480
Speaker 3: got a black screen. Tray Kurby coming in fourth on

978
00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:38,319
Speaker 3: today's No Ducks podcast, JD. You're always Gold. Congrats to

979
00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:41,760
Speaker 3: you late. You and I are battling now for Silver.

980
00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:50,000
Speaker 3: He's back. Hey, we got a fifth mysterious black Box. So,

981
00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:56,600
Speaker 3: like I was saying about Luke missed us talking about

982
00:42:56,600 --> 00:43:01,040
Speaker 3: the Olympics. Yeah, I'm not even gonna tell you how

983
00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:04,120
Speaker 3: we got onto that tangent. Okay, let's get to some news.

984
00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:07,200
Speaker 3: Nice to have you back to k We have a

985
00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:09,160
Speaker 3: report coming out over the last couple of days. The

986
00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:13,239
Speaker 3: NBA is seriously discussing expansion. You know, Adam Silver has

987
00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:17,080
Speaker 3: said that himself makes sense. You know, profit's probably down

988
00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:20,759
Speaker 3: here during the pandemic. Expansion bees fees are a great

989
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:23,200
Speaker 3: way to just inject a bunch of cold, hard cash

990
00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:26,919
Speaker 3: to the other owners who are possibly hemorrhaging money here.

991
00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:30,320
Speaker 3: Well how much money well, according to ESPN's Brian Windhorse,

992
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:33,920
Speaker 3: within the League office, sources said officials have floated the

993
00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:38,200
Speaker 3: price tag of two point five billion each for two

994
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:40,919
Speaker 3: expansion teams in the near future. We're at thirty right now.

995
00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:43,239
Speaker 3: Let's say we go bumping up to thirty two, but

996
00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:45,640
Speaker 3: two point five bill. I have a couple questions off

997
00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:49,919
Speaker 3: this Lee expansion you think is a good idea right

998
00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:53,439
Speaker 3: now in today's NBA, And if you do, where would

999
00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:56,080
Speaker 3: you locate let's say, two teams, how about it?

1000
00:43:57,040 --> 00:43:59,040
Speaker 5: I think expansion is a good idea if it's for

1001
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:02,000
Speaker 5: the right reasons. This doesn't feel like the right reasons

1002
00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:04,240
Speaker 5: for me. This feels more like we need some cash.

1003
00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:06,560
Speaker 5: We need some quick, hard cash as soon as we can,

1004
00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:09,239
Speaker 5: because I think they'll have no shortage of takers to

1005
00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:11,720
Speaker 5: come up with that two and a half billion dollar fee,

1006
00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:15,640
Speaker 5: because there's always interest from people to buy a team

1007
00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:18,560
Speaker 5: because it usually is a cash cow. Now, if you

1008
00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:22,200
Speaker 5: get two teams and that's a five billion dollar cash

1009
00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:25,120
Speaker 5: injection that gets split amongst the other owners, the players

1010
00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:27,359
Speaker 5: don't get any of that, nop, So that would be

1011
00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:30,800
Speaker 5: around about one hundred and sixty odd million per team,

1012
00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:34,400
Speaker 5: which sounds like a lot of money, and it is,

1013
00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:37,120
Speaker 5: But to me, it's like I would like to see

1014
00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:40,359
Speaker 5: a more sustainable way of trying to generate the money

1015
00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:43,040
Speaker 5: that they're losing, because ultimately, if you have more teams

1016
00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:45,600
Speaker 5: and you get that one hundred and sixty million, you're

1017
00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:49,040
Speaker 5: going to be diluting the TV revenue that comes in.

1018
00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:51,279
Speaker 5: So is that sort of like a short term like

1019
00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:54,200
Speaker 5: cash quick hit, which I don't think is the right

1020
00:44:54,200 --> 00:44:57,000
Speaker 5: reason to do it, So I'd be a little bit

1021
00:44:57,040 --> 00:44:59,640
Speaker 5: careful right now now. I think a big part of

1022
00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:03,040
Speaker 5: this is because we simply don't know when we'll have

1023
00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:05,520
Speaker 5: full arenas in the NBA. Again, that might not be

1024
00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:08,399
Speaker 5: for a couple of years. Potentially we might start seeing

1025
00:45:08,400 --> 00:45:10,040
Speaker 5: fans strictly in and I know there's some fans at

1026
00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:12,759
Speaker 5: games now, which doesn't seem like the smartest idea, but

1027
00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:15,080
Speaker 5: there are some fans there. But also from what I've

1028
00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:18,240
Speaker 5: seen around the world in soccer at England and cricket

1029
00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:20,960
Speaker 5: in Australia, they have brought crowds back, but as sort

1030
00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:23,440
Speaker 5: of social distance, there hasn't been a capacity at any

1031
00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:26,200
Speaker 5: game or anything that I've seen so far. So and

1032
00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:28,480
Speaker 5: I think America, considering where they are with the virus,

1033
00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:31,000
Speaker 5: is still just a long, long long way away from that,

1034
00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:33,480
Speaker 5: even though we're started to get the vaccine rolling out now.

1035
00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:37,960
Speaker 5: So my ultimate point is, I think, don't do this

1036
00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:41,160
Speaker 5: unless it is really going to be done with a

1037
00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:43,839
Speaker 5: long term financial plan in place that isn't just going

1038
00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:47,560
Speaker 5: to then create a headache further down the line, because

1039
00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:50,800
Speaker 5: it may just cause even more financial grief for other teams,

1040
00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:55,640
Speaker 5: because again, more teams means more competition. It might be

1041
00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:58,120
Speaker 5: a little bit harder to sell season tickets to in

1042
00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:00,560
Speaker 5: some cities, depending on how the tea has been. And

1043
00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:03,600
Speaker 5: as Danny LaRue often points out, ownership is the most

1044
00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:05,960
Speaker 5: competitive advantage in the NBA, So you want to make

1045
00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:07,880
Speaker 5: sure you get If you're going to get more owners,

1046
00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:09,839
Speaker 5: make sure they're good owners. Because there are a lot

1047
00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:11,920
Speaker 5: of NBA owners right now. I won't name names, but

1048
00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:13,960
Speaker 5: I think we know who they are who aren't very

1049
00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:16,799
Speaker 5: good owners and their teams have been terrible for a

1050
00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:22,319
Speaker 5: long time. So it's a it's a dicey proposition right now,

1051
00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:23,640
Speaker 5: I think for the NBA. But if you were to

1052
00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:26,960
Speaker 5: bring teams back, Seattle's obviously going getting a team, and.

1053
00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:29,279
Speaker 3: That's a no brainer. I think, Trey, you'd agree with that.

1054
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:32,160
Speaker 3: Seattle would be one of the teams that is automatically

1055
00:46:32,239 --> 00:46:34,320
Speaker 3: given one of these expansion teams, even though they'd be

1056
00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:35,040
Speaker 3: bringing them back.

1057
00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:38,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, it would be exactly like the Charlotte Hornets, you know,

1058
00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:41,440
Speaker 2: when the Pelicans became a team and then the Bobcats

1059
00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:42,960
Speaker 2: turned back into the Hornets. I think it would be

1060
00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:45,320
Speaker 2: exactly like that. Obviously, Seattle would be great. You know,

1061
00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:48,360
Speaker 2: they've got a championship history. We all remember the Sonics

1062
00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:51,319
Speaker 2: being there ten seasons ago basically, So yeah, I think

1063
00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:53,680
Speaker 2: that one is a lot. The other place I would

1064
00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:56,000
Speaker 2: like to see the NBA expand into is Mexico City,

1065
00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:59,000
Speaker 2: the biggest city in North America, bigger than New York City,

1066
00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:02,120
Speaker 2: who has two teams. They've been playing occasional games in

1067
00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:04,480
Speaker 2: Mexico City for years. That'd be a great place to

1068
00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:05,400
Speaker 2: grow the game ethic.

1069
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:07,760
Speaker 3: What do you think about that, Lee, you know, Mexico

1070
00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:09,040
Speaker 3: City or another place.

1071
00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:11,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, I would love the NBA to go back

1072
00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:13,480
Speaker 5: to Vancouver, but I just don't think that would happen.

1073
00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:15,239
Speaker 5: I just don't think they had the interest there in

1074
00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:17,680
Speaker 5: that city to sustain an NBA team. But as far

1075
00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:20,719
Speaker 5: as beautiful cities, Vancouver for me would be top of

1076
00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:22,400
Speaker 5: the top of the pile. They'd love to hear some

1077
00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:25,040
Speaker 5: more Dennis Scott stories from his time playing for the

1078
00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:27,279
Speaker 5: Vancouver Grizzlies. We know he had a great time there.

1079
00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:30,279
Speaker 5: But other than that, Mexico City, absolutely, I think that

1080
00:47:30,320 --> 00:47:32,400
Speaker 5: would be fantastic for the NBA to do that, because

1081
00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:35,160
Speaker 5: I don't think travel would be much of a concern

1082
00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:38,000
Speaker 5: there because the way these teams travel around anyway, so

1083
00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:40,839
Speaker 5: it's I think it's Central time zone there in Mexico City.

1084
00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:43,560
Speaker 5: I'm not sure, but any whatever it is, it would

1085
00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:45,960
Speaker 5: be great for the NBA to expand across the border

1086
00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:46,520
Speaker 5: if they could.

1087
00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:51,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, their cities being thrown out. Louisville is sort of

1088
00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:54,000
Speaker 3: at the top of a lot of people's list. Las Vegas,

1089
00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:56,719
Speaker 3: I know, is a hot one. You know, obviously they

1090
00:47:56,719 --> 00:47:58,040
Speaker 3: have a hockey team there. They've got a brand new

1091
00:47:58,080 --> 00:48:00,960
Speaker 3: arena there. It's Vegas. You got many people. Is there

1092
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:05,960
Speaker 3: a football travel, Yeah, there's football tea yeah. Rash Marcozi

1093
00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:10,040
Speaker 3: actually he tweeted this out yesterday, an online an idea

1094
00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:12,600
Speaker 3: online for a thirty two team NBA with Seattle in

1095
00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:15,560
Speaker 3: Las Vegas in the west, and then you'd have to

1096
00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:18,600
Speaker 3: bump Minnesota to the east and you could do eight

1097
00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:21,799
Speaker 3: divisions in two sixteen team conferences. What do you think

1098
00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:24,359
Speaker 3: about this? We're showing the map and the sort of

1099
00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:28,400
Speaker 3: like the division for everybody joining us on YouTube. You know,

1100
00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:31,440
Speaker 3: if they were in Vegas and Seattle trade that that

1101
00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:33,239
Speaker 3: makes sense to me. I don't. I don't really have

1102
00:48:33,280 --> 00:48:36,080
Speaker 3: an issue with putting, you know, lump in Minnesota in

1103
00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:37,720
Speaker 3: with the Bucks and the Bulls and the Pistons.

1104
00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:40,640
Speaker 2: No, oh yeah, I think that makes sense. It's kind

1105
00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:42,600
Speaker 2: of you know, if they expanded, you need to take

1106
00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:44,560
Speaker 2: one team to the Eastern Conference. If it's going to

1107
00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:46,960
Speaker 2: be Vegas and Seattle added, it's gonna be between the

1108
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:49,080
Speaker 2: Grizzlies and the Timberwolves, right, those are the teams that

1109
00:48:49,120 --> 00:48:52,759
Speaker 2: are furthest east on the map, and it seems like

1110
00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:55,000
Speaker 2: they should actually kind of be in the Eastern Conference.

1111
00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:56,760
Speaker 2: Both of those teams would be a lot more competitive

1112
00:48:56,760 --> 00:48:59,440
Speaker 2: in the Eastern Conference as well, And so yeah, I

1113
00:48:59,480 --> 00:49:01,800
Speaker 2: would be down this. It definitely feels like Las Vegas

1114
00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:05,080
Speaker 2: and Seattle would be the cities that get teams. Seattle,

1115
00:49:05,080 --> 00:49:08,120
Speaker 2: like we're saying the history, and Vegas has shown that

1116
00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:10,640
Speaker 2: they are ready for pro sports teams. Teams seem to

1117
00:49:10,640 --> 00:49:12,600
Speaker 2: be doing well once they get to Las Vegas. Maybe

1118
00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:15,200
Speaker 2: not successful. I know the Raiders haven't had a great season,

1119
00:49:15,239 --> 00:49:18,400
Speaker 2: but the Aces were great in the WNBA. What's the

1120
00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:20,200
Speaker 2: hockey team, the Golden Whites, and they went to the

1121
00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:22,400
Speaker 2: finals their very first season, right, and they were a

1122
00:49:22,480 --> 00:49:26,200
Speaker 2: huge success story. So you know, pro sports leagues were

1123
00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:29,120
Speaker 2: very nervous to go to Las Vegas when betting was

1124
00:49:29,160 --> 00:49:34,520
Speaker 2: completely outlawed. Now that it's more legalized, makes sense to me.

1125
00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:36,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's tear from you guys out there. Where would

1126
00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:39,360
Speaker 3: you put two expansion teams? Or do you sort of

1127
00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:43,040
Speaker 3: agree with Lee? Maybe like is this the right idea?

1128
00:49:43,120 --> 00:49:44,480
Speaker 3: You know, so a lot of people think there's enough

1129
00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:48,560
Speaker 3: talent in the league Lee to sustain two more teams

1130
00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:51,880
Speaker 3: in terms of like obviously distributing like these great players

1131
00:49:51,880 --> 00:49:53,640
Speaker 3: to have then star players on other teams.

1132
00:49:53,840 --> 00:49:56,960
Speaker 5: That's an interesting point because every year, we know a

1133
00:49:56,960 --> 00:49:59,239
Speaker 5: lot of teams tank though early into the season, so

1134
00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:01,960
Speaker 5: you know, you don't want more teams coming into then

1135
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:05,040
Speaker 5: potentially water down the league even more, you know. So

1136
00:50:05,840 --> 00:50:08,920
Speaker 5: that's I'm not sure I completely agree with that. I

1137
00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:12,120
Speaker 5: mean against that comes again from ownership and management, where

1138
00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:13,880
Speaker 5: if they're like, listen, we want to we want this

1139
00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:16,000
Speaker 5: team to suck, so we try to get a higher

1140
00:50:16,040 --> 00:50:19,600
Speaker 5: draft pick. But yeah, I'm not I'm not convinced that

1141
00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:22,680
Speaker 5: that's entirely true myself. I think sometimes less is more

1142
00:50:22,680 --> 00:50:25,759
Speaker 5: in that state an instance where you have more competitive

1143
00:50:25,800 --> 00:50:29,880
Speaker 5: league with perhaps not as many teams, you know, once.

1144
00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:31,239
Speaker 3: Again, let's hear from you guys out there on the

1145
00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:34,480
Speaker 3: stream team and tweet at us at no, don't think. Finally,

1146
00:50:34,480 --> 00:50:36,320
Speaker 3: I just wanted to bring this to your guys attention.

1147
00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:40,239
Speaker 3: Last night I tweeted my early all disappointing team, sort

1148
00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:41,840
Speaker 3: of just like off the top of my head, guys

1149
00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:44,480
Speaker 3: that just have been pretty garbage to start the year.

1150
00:50:44,520 --> 00:50:48,560
Speaker 3: It's obviously super early. Still, I had DeVante Graham and

1151
00:50:48,600 --> 00:50:50,960
Speaker 3: these were these were stats heading into last night's games

1152
00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:53,399
Speaker 3: for some of them, but Davante Graham nine point nine

1153
00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:56,160
Speaker 3: points per game, twenty seven percent shooting. My other guard

1154
00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:58,680
Speaker 3: was Norman Powell with the Raps. Yeah, you could have

1155
00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:00,759
Speaker 3: picked a lot of raps. Eight point five points for game,

1156
00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:03,640
Speaker 3: thirty one percent shooting for him. I had Karris Lavert. No,

1157
00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:05,600
Speaker 3: he had a pretty decent game last night, but coming

1158
00:51:05,640 --> 00:51:07,640
Speaker 3: into it thirteen point one points for games, thirty seven

1159
00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:10,200
Speaker 3: percent on the floor. Kelly Bray Junior ten point nine

1160
00:51:10,239 --> 00:51:12,440
Speaker 3: points per game, thirty four percent from the floor and

1161
00:51:12,520 --> 00:51:15,000
Speaker 3: even way worse from three. And then Davis Bertons I

1162
00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:16,839
Speaker 3: had is my other forward, eleven points for game, thirty

1163
00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:19,719
Speaker 3: five percent from the floor. Again, I tweeted this out.

1164
00:51:19,719 --> 00:51:21,160
Speaker 3: We got a lot of great responses, but I want

1165
00:51:21,160 --> 00:51:23,920
Speaker 3: to ask you, guys, is there anyone I missed or

1166
00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:25,799
Speaker 3: you know, like who you would add if we even

1167
00:51:25,800 --> 00:51:28,000
Speaker 3: if we were building like an all disappointing second team,

1168
00:51:28,440 --> 00:51:30,719
Speaker 3: who would be who would be in play there for you?

1169
00:51:30,760 --> 00:51:34,880
Speaker 2: Trey Well, when I was running up and downstairs trying

1170
00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:36,880
Speaker 2: to make sure my internet was right, I was fretting

1171
00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:39,040
Speaker 2: about this Skeets, thinking I wasn't going to be able

1172
00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:41,720
Speaker 2: to get back for this question. To address your anti

1173
00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:45,000
Speaker 2: big man bias once again, Not only are there no

1174
00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:47,959
Speaker 2: centers on your all disappointing team, there's only one guy

1175
00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:50,680
Speaker 2: over six foot ten, Davis Burton's, and he takes all

1176
00:51:50,719 --> 00:51:54,640
Speaker 2: of his shots outside. We've already lost the center spot

1177
00:51:54,680 --> 00:51:56,759
Speaker 2: on the All Star Game. You guys want to get

1178
00:51:56,840 --> 00:51:59,640
Speaker 2: rid of it in the All NBA. And now Skeets

1179
00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:02,160
Speaker 2: is not even letting the No Dunks audience have a

1180
00:52:02,200 --> 00:52:05,279
Speaker 2: center on his all disappointing team when Skeets has been

1181
00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:08,840
Speaker 2: bringing up the most disappointing centers in the league for

1182
00:52:08,960 --> 00:52:11,680
Speaker 2: the first two weeks in the season. Aaron Bains, He's

1183
00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:15,280
Speaker 2: right there for you. Marvin Baga, Beans Bagley, the third

1184
00:52:15,480 --> 00:52:18,240
Speaker 2: and the second they're right there for you. Marvin Bagley's

1185
00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:21,080
Speaker 2: six eleven and he's shooting thirty seven percent. About Al

1186
00:52:21,080 --> 00:52:24,600
Speaker 2: Horford nine seven and three, he's got nineteen combined stats

1187
00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:27,360
Speaker 2: and he's making twenty seven million dollars a year use off.

1188
00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:30,359
Speaker 2: Nurkic also putting up a big triple single nine seven

1189
00:52:30,400 --> 00:52:33,600
Speaker 2: and three. The No Dunks audience demands a center on

1190
00:52:33,640 --> 00:52:37,040
Speaker 2: this team, skeets, no more anti big man bias.

1191
00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:39,680
Speaker 3: That's fair. I got a lot of votes for nurk

1192
00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:43,000
Speaker 3: last night. Siakam was in the mix too. There was

1193
00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:45,919
Speaker 3: people saying, what about Jimmy Butler. I gave Jimmy Butler

1194
00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:48,880
Speaker 3: a pass because of injuries. He's missed like half their games.

1195
00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:50,920
Speaker 3: He's been bad. But you know, in terms of shooting

1196
00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:53,880
Speaker 3: the ball, fair fair. Yeah again, I was doing this quick.

1197
00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:56,279
Speaker 3: I was actually like struggling just on the fly to

1198
00:52:56,320 --> 00:52:59,920
Speaker 3: think of big guys. Badley, good one, really really good one.

1199
00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:04,560
Speaker 3: I guess I didn't have high hopes for Beansy as

1200
00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:07,000
Speaker 3: it was so yeah, I had a Raptor on the

1201
00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:10,960
Speaker 3: team already, yeah, that he could be added anyone else

1202
00:53:11,040 --> 00:53:11,839
Speaker 3: leave well.

1203
00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:13,840
Speaker 5: After the first game of the season, the Raptors and

1204
00:53:13,880 --> 00:53:16,440
Speaker 5: the Hornets jj Reddick had twenty three points, went six

1205
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:18,960
Speaker 5: for eleven. I said, oh, there was some six man

1206
00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:21,520
Speaker 5: buzz there right now for JJ Reddick. Since then, he's

1207
00:53:21,560 --> 00:53:24,560
Speaker 5: gone three for twenty six and he scored twenty four

1208
00:53:24,560 --> 00:53:27,120
Speaker 5: points in the other games, and he has just been

1209
00:53:27,239 --> 00:53:30,640
Speaker 5: ice cold out there. He just can't hit a shot,

1210
00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:33,480
Speaker 5: which is incredible because he's got such a beautiful shooting stroke,

1211
00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:35,400
Speaker 5: and he's a veteran, he's been around. This is a

1212
00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:38,200
Speaker 5: great role for him and a good team, good opportunity.

1213
00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:41,480
Speaker 5: But he Yeah, he's just been clunking it a lot lately,

1214
00:53:41,560 --> 00:53:44,000
Speaker 5: so I expect he will shake out of that slump.

1215
00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:47,799
Speaker 5: But yeah, overall, he's shooting twenty four percent on the season.

1216
00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:49,560
Speaker 5: He went six for eleven in that first game and

1217
00:53:49,600 --> 00:53:51,440
Speaker 5: a great win against Maybe it was because it was

1218
00:53:51,440 --> 00:53:55,239
Speaker 5: the Raptors, although he's played the Raptors again, So but yeah,

1219
00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:57,200
Speaker 5: I just you know, you know, for a guy like

1220
00:53:57,280 --> 00:53:59,560
Speaker 5: him at his stage of his career, with his shooting stroke,

1221
00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:01,799
Speaker 5: it's like I could easily see him getting sort of

1222
00:54:01,920 --> 00:54:03,960
Speaker 5: fifteen points a game in that team in New Orleans,

1223
00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:05,399
Speaker 5: but not happening right now.

1224
00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:06,040
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1225
00:54:06,239 --> 00:54:08,759
Speaker 3: John Hollander also suggested a good one last night to

1226
00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:12,439
Speaker 3: me Gary Harris, who heading into last night's game again,

1227
00:54:12,440 --> 00:54:15,400
Speaker 3: I don't have the updated stats, but was averaging seven

1228

1258
00:55:35,680 --> 00:55:41,640
Speaker 4: from Crooked Media producer Michael Martinez and it's just this

1259
00:55:43,040 --> 00:55:46,480
Speaker 4: just says mood. And it's a picture, a lovely picture

1260
00:55:46,480 --> 00:55:49,759
Speaker 4: of a man and his dog for those for the listeners,

1261
00:55:50,080 --> 00:55:54,799
Speaker 4: it's noted dog enthusiast Reverend or Raphael Warnock holding what

1262
00:55:54,880 --> 00:55:59,560
Speaker 4: I think is a beagle. It's damn cute. Anyways, all

1263
00:55:59,560 --> 00:56:04,160
Speaker 4: this to say congratulations to Reverend Warnock. He beat an

1264
00:56:04,239 --> 00:56:09,759
Speaker 4: unelected incumbent who was, is to put it politely, a scumbag.

1265
00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:12,239
Speaker 4: But you know what, it's a new day. Let's keep

1266
00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:16,200
Speaker 4: it positive and we're rooting for us off over here

1267
00:56:16,239 --> 00:56:18,280
Speaker 4: in this house. I'm sure you guys are as well.

1268
00:56:18,320 --> 00:56:23,200
Speaker 4: And uh oh yeah, shout out to the Cab County.

1269
00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:26,240
Speaker 4: During the show, Tas sent me a bunch of tweets

1270
00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:31,319
Speaker 4: about the pronunciation of Dacab County, which was good. And

1271
00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:35,400
Speaker 4: speaking of Tas, he mentioned this morning Lebron thinking about

1272
00:56:35,560 --> 00:56:40,200
Speaker 4: uh putting together an ownership group for the Dream who's in.

1273
00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:42,240

00:56:47,239 --> 00:56:48,800
Speaker 3: I assume that's his dog.

1277
00:56:48,640 --> 00:56:52,799
Speaker 4: Right, I don't know, he's a real puppy guy.

1278
00:56:53,360 --> 00:56:55,040
Speaker 5: Was that the same one he used in that commercial?

1279
00:56:55,200 --> 00:56:56,680
Speaker 2: I think so? Yeah?

1280
00:56:56,920 --> 00:57:00,640
Speaker 5: At the dog poo and great commercial, well done commercial.

1281
00:57:00,719 --> 00:57:02,640
Speaker 3: I saw it about twenty thousand dollars.

1282
00:57:02,920 --> 00:57:06,200
Speaker 2: Man, good, you're gonna miss those ads. But I don't know.

1283
00:57:06,280 --> 00:57:08,360
Speaker 2: Maybe no dungs can chip in on buying the dream

1284
00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:11,160
Speaker 2: here exciting, right, I don't know it's a contact of

1285
00:57:11,200 --> 00:57:14,680
Speaker 2: interest for a NBA podcast to own a w NBA team,

1286
00:57:14,719 --> 00:57:19,000
Speaker 2: But send us that kick fund raiser things, Lebron, whatever

1287
00:57:19,040 --> 00:57:21,200
Speaker 2: you're getting for your owner bull chip in a little

1288
00:57:21,240 --> 00:57:23,000
Speaker 2: bit twenty five bucks let us in.

1289
00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:25,560
Speaker 3: All right, let's get to pick the results from last night.

1290
00:57:25,560 --> 00:57:27,680
Speaker 3: It was the Bulls Blazers game. Blazers were favored by

1291
00:57:27,680 --> 00:57:30,240
Speaker 3: ten and a half. They didn't even win, so good

1292
00:57:30,760 --> 00:57:34,320
Speaker 3: call by Task and Tray to take Chicago to cover again.

1293
00:57:34,360 --> 00:57:37,400
Speaker 3: They just get the outright victory. So Lee and I

1294
00:57:37,440 --> 00:57:39,840
Speaker 3: were wrong with that one. We got three of us

1295
00:57:39,840 --> 00:57:42,440
Speaker 3: four and four. That's Tassley in myself. And then tray

1296
00:57:42,480 --> 00:57:44,720
Speaker 3: your three and five. It's very, very close, and there's

1297
00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:47,640
Speaker 3: a lot of January left. So tonight's game is the

1298
00:57:47,680 --> 00:57:53,240
Speaker 3: Clippers Warriors. Interesting line, Warriors not the favorites at home.

1299
00:57:53,320 --> 00:57:55,240
Speaker 3: They're they get They're getting four and a half points,

1300
00:57:55,800 --> 00:57:58,600
Speaker 3: so Clippers got to win by five or more. We

1301
00:57:58,720 --> 00:58:02,040
Speaker 3: got a busy eleven games schedule tonight, and this is

1302
00:58:02,040 --> 00:58:04,640
Speaker 3: the second game of the ESPN doubleheader Celtics Heat at

1303
00:58:04,640 --> 00:58:07,000
Speaker 3: seven thirty, and then this one our pickum Clippers at Warriors.

1304
00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:09,680
Speaker 3: So let's go to you first, Leley Clippers favored by

1305
00:58:09,720 --> 00:58:12,240
Speaker 3: four and a half on the road in Oakland. What

1306
00:58:12,240 --> 00:58:12,600
Speaker 3: do you got?

1307
00:58:12,680 --> 00:58:15,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm not sure if Paul Georgie is back, second

1308
00:58:15,120 --> 00:58:17,040
Speaker 5: old of it, back to back. The Warriors have been

1309
00:58:17,080 --> 00:58:19,520
Speaker 5: playing so well right now, and the Clippers, you just

1310
00:58:19,560 --> 00:58:22,000
Speaker 5: don't know what you're getting. So I'm going to take

1311
00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:24,320
Speaker 5: the Warriors. I think they've I think they can keep

1312
00:58:24,360 --> 00:58:27,240
Speaker 5: it close enough even if they don't win, to cover

1313
00:58:27,280 --> 00:58:28,920
Speaker 5: the spread there. So I give me the Warriors.

1314
00:58:29,080 --> 00:58:31,400
Speaker 3: Okay, And I gotta correct myself. They don't play in

1315
00:58:31,440 --> 00:58:32,600
Speaker 3: Oakland anymore. I forgot.

1316
00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:35,240
Speaker 5: Oh that's right, Yes, I wear the Oakland jerseys though.

1317
00:58:35,600 --> 00:58:38,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's right. That's why it's very confusing. Slap in

1318
00:58:38,120 --> 00:58:40,200
Speaker 3: the face if you ask me, what do you got

1319
00:58:40,240 --> 00:58:40,520
Speaker 3: to k.

1320
00:58:41,200 --> 00:58:42,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with Lee on this one. I'm going to

1321
00:58:42,840 --> 00:58:45,000
Speaker 2: go with the Warriors as well. They've been playing pretty

1322
00:58:45,440 --> 00:58:48,240
Speaker 2: pretty nice basketball since Draymond Green came back. Four and

1323
00:58:48,280 --> 00:58:50,280
Speaker 2: a half points. Not a huge line, but a little

1324
00:58:50,320 --> 00:58:52,520
Speaker 2: bit too big for my liking. So give me the Warriors.

1325
00:58:53,320 --> 00:58:55,560
Speaker 3: I don't sweerarve, I'll go Clippers. As we pointed out,

1326
00:58:55,560 --> 00:58:57,440
Speaker 3: they're going to be down twenty or up twenty, So

1327
00:58:57,480 --> 00:58:59,480
Speaker 3: which one will it be? Flip a coin, give me

1328
00:58:59,640 --> 00:59:02,800
Speaker 3: La to win by five or more, and then let's

1329
00:59:02,800 --> 00:59:03,560
Speaker 3: hear task this pick.

1330
00:59:04,120 --> 00:59:07,120
Speaker 4: Give me the Warriors and the four points, and give

1331
00:59:07,200 --> 00:59:10,960
Speaker 4: me a verbal altercation between Draymond Green and somebody on

1332
00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:11,760
Speaker 4: the Clippers.

1333
00:59:11,920 --> 00:59:14,080
Speaker 2: Maybe many people on the Clippers.

1334
00:59:15,520 --> 00:59:17,560
Speaker 3: Patrick Beverley would be at the top of that list.

1335
00:59:17,640 --> 00:59:19,360
Speaker 3: Seez always got a thing to say. We will see,

1336
00:59:19,400 --> 00:59:21,400
Speaker 3: all right, I'm the only one taking lac to cover

1337
00:59:21,440 --> 00:59:24,760
Speaker 3: the spread. Everybody else got the Warriors. Okay, we'll call

1338
00:59:24,800 --> 00:59:27,280
Speaker 3: it there. Glad we got your back there, Tray. I

1339
00:59:27,280 --> 00:59:29,240
Speaker 3: mean you started with a bang, then you were gone,

1340
00:59:29,280 --> 00:59:31,919
Speaker 3: and then in style I'm trying to do my part

1341
00:59:31,960 --> 00:59:34,160

1348
00:59:49,080 --> 00:59:53,960

1349
00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:56,120
