Speaker 3: A little bit later.

26
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,600
Speaker 2: Twitter was popping last night, and I'm like, ooh, that's

27
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 2: a fun question. Oh that's a fun topic we could

28
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:40,320
Speaker 2: turn into a question. So we'll get to that later.

29
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 2: But let's start with the games, and let's just jump

30
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,959
Speaker 2: right into it. John Morant breaks his own Grizzlies record

31
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 2: with fifty two points.

32
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 3: No, it is now fifty.

33
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 2: As he dazzles that Memphis crowd there with highlight play

34
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 2: after highlight play after highlight play, tasks. I made the

35
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 2: title of this show. I mean, there is nothing and

36
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 2: everything left to say about John rant. I truly believe

37
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,679
Speaker 2: that this guy is unbelievable.

38
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 4: Well, he truly is doing things that we've never seen before.

39
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 4: I think that's sincere. Everybody wants to talk about the

40
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 4: dunk on pooriaka Perdl, which was a unique dunk. I mean,

41
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 4: that was a show of athletic I heard he.

42
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 3: Died last night. That's what I saw a lot going

43
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:27,360
Speaker 3: through the internet. John Moran ends seven footers life.

44
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 4: He's not seven feet anyway.

45
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 3: They put it in the A as well. They're like,

46
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:34,239
Speaker 3: we're not even giving him a name right now. He's

47
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 3: just a seven footer. They don't want to embarrass him.

48
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 4: AP is ending people's lives. Now.

49
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:41,079
Speaker 3: I know that was a YouTube life, but I did

50
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 3: see that he was a seven. He was mentioned as

51
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 3: a seven footer and then expanded upon later.

52
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:47,839
Speaker 4: Because AP is going for them hot takes as well.

53
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 4: They're jumping in on the hot takes game. Okay, the dunk,

54
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 4: we'll get to in a second. I've never seen an

55
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:58,400
Speaker 4: inbound play that far. I mean that was literally as

56
00:02:58,400 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 4: far as you could pass the ball from Steven Adams

57
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 4: underneath his own hoop, like ninety two feet to Jah

58
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 4: Morant basically under the other team's hoop. It was almost

59
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 4: in the corner by their own bench where it was

60
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 4: a jump ball. It was almost like where is the ball?

61
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 4: Because he just elevated a bunch of other grown men

62
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,520
Speaker 4: because he can get higher than other players and was

63
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 4: able to catch it and shoot it in zero point

64
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 4: four seconds and score, and maybe the scorekeeper was looking

65
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:27,920
Speaker 4: at it like I don't know where the ball is?

66
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,959
Speaker 4: I mean, what's happening there? Because I think I think

67
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 4: everybody was like what is going on there? And maybe

68
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 4: he didn't start the clock fast enough, but who cares?

69
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 4: He put it up and scored, and then yeah, the

70
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 4: dunk on Yakub that was just too much space from

71
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 4: Yaka Peardle. And I think that's the important thing, Like really,

72
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 4: when you get to what Ja Morant is and what

73
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 4: he's doing, is if you give him space, if you're

74
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 4: a big and you give him space, those fast twitch fibers, he.

75
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 3: Just he just like he was.

76
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 4: He looked at Yaka Purl many times on the dunk

77
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 4: as well and just saw like a glimmer of space

78
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 4: and was able to just get into it and be

79
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 4: able to go side to side so quickly that it's

80
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,640
Speaker 4: like he's a flash and he's gone and he's at

81
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 4: the rim and and I would like to see the

82
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:16,680
Speaker 4: floor light up to show his footsteps because it is incredible.

83
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 4: And how he got, you know, to fifty two is

84
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,359
Speaker 4: because he's just he's just so fricking quick in those moves,

85
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 4: and the threes are coming along, and yeah, a bunch

86
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:29,720
Speaker 4: of highlights as YouTube said that you can just look

87
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 4: at as it was like, yeah, the highlights were the

88
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 4: headlines were one game, this dude dropping the dunk, that

89
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 4: point four second toss up, whatever the hell that thing was,

90
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:41,280
Speaker 4: The three balls.

91
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,279
Speaker 2: And just a bunch of other slithering layups around guys and.

92
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 4: Traffic special man, He's just athletic and ridiculous.

93
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 2: Anything that to that.

94
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,839
Speaker 5: I think DeAndre Jordan was making that same past the

95
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 5: night before. He just had no to throw it to.

96
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,719
Speaker 5: That's the only difference. But the thing about John Morant

97
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 5: last night is, you know, theighlight's just crazy. He only

98
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 5: had thirty shots in thirty four minutes and scored fifty

99
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:05,599
Speaker 5: two points. I got to win against a team the Spurs,

100
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:07,680
Speaker 5: or sort of keeping it there. John Moran came out

101
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 5: and said, no, it's my game. His maturity is well

102
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 5: beyond his years for his ability to take a game

103
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,160
Speaker 5: like that out of control last night, because with the

104
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:17,800
Speaker 5: hype and all the dunk and the cragans, it's easy

105
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 5: to sort of get lost a little bit in the momentum.

106
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 5: But they went on to win the game, which is

107
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 5: obviously the most important thing here. I don't remember, and

108
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:27,600
Speaker 5: I don't want to be too hyperbolic here, but I

109
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,920
Speaker 5: don't remember someone in recent history, including your Derek Roses

110
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 5: and Lebron and even a Westbrook whatever, who have had

111
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 5: so many highlights game to game within the game that

112
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 5: are kind of different, not just like a dunk. It's

113
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 5: the layup. We see the block against the Lakers, you know,

114
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,479
Speaker 5: Like he's got a variety of Like I mean, the

115
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 5: game I talked about yesterday was on Saturday night had

116
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,280
Speaker 5: five I think different players from that, like the scoop layer,

117
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:52,480
Speaker 5: the three sixty, what else do you have? He had

118
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 5: a dunk, of course he always does. But he's just

119
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,719
Speaker 5: putting on a show every single night and it's leading

120
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 5: to his winning. And he's putting himself firmly in the

121
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 5: MVP conversation. So this is not just empty stats or

122
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 5: one guy doing it against teams that he's getting blown out.

123
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,480
Speaker 5: The most important thing, he's winning games. His team is

124
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,920
Speaker 5: winning games. So he's got a very very impressive case.

125
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:16,839
Speaker 5: I don't think he wins MVP, but I think he

126
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 5: gets probably top four right now.

127
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 2: People said he snatched the wine list at the MVP.

128
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 3: Let me see that.

129
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,599
Speaker 2: I'll order the next bottle because he's definitely has a

130
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 2: seat there. Yeah, Trey, Well, what is there honestly to say.

131
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:32,840
Speaker 3: About this guy at this point? I don't know. I mean,

132
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 3: we talked about the refs already, Like we literally talked

133
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,720
Speaker 3: about the scorekeepers With regards to John Moran, we talked

134
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:42,600
Speaker 3: about his muscle fibers. He made four free throws last night.

135
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,280
Speaker 3: That's crazy. The guy drives to the lane all the time.

136
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 3: He's one of the most athletic players there. And he

137
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,039
Speaker 3: is like Tony parkerish with the way he can score

138
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 3: in the paint as a guarden, shooting an incredible percentage.

139
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 3: And he made four free throws last night, scoring fifty

140
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 3: two points. The guy's getting hacked all the time, but

141
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 3: sometimes he's just a little too slithery, yeah, to really

142
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 3: get contact on him, so he doesn't go to the line.

143
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:06,680
Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean twenty two for thirty that's incredible efficiency.

144
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 3: That's the efficiency you see from a seven footer. He's

145
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 3: a guy who's six foot three going over the top

146
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 3: of seven footers. So incredible stuff. A little bit of

147
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 3: a revenge game, I think for Ja Moran as well,

148
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 3: not being named a Team USA last summer, could have

149
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 3: been named as a replacement. Greg Popovich said no, gimme

150
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 3: Kelvin Johnson and Josh said, okay, I'll give you fifty

151
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 3: two next time we see Yea.

152
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 2: The one thing I loved about the dunk on Perdl

153
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 2: and It would have been funny if that new wordle

154
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 2: NBA game peral would have been just shut down this morning,

155
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 2: like he destroyed it with his dunk on Purdle. But

156
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 2: it's still there is. I love the court side crowd

157
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:46,480
Speaker 2: exploding jumping up. I mean in NBA games, like in

158
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:50,200
Speaker 2: big dunks, the rest of the arena, the nosebleeds. A

159
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,680
Speaker 2: lot of people in Louis bow will jump up, but

160
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,560
Speaker 2: the court side fans, you know, the first couple of rows.

161
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 2: They're too cool for school. Usually yeah, you know, maybe

162
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 2: they're not even paying attention. Whatever. You see everybody pop

163
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 2: up and go watch the dunk again, because I've watched

164
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 2: it a million times year up to this point. Everybody's well,

165
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,080
Speaker 2: it feels like an and one mixtape, like that's what's

166
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 2: going on. It's almost like they should have been allowed

167
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 2: to like storm the floor, you know, like rush the

168
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 2: court and stuff like that.

169
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:17,400
Speaker 5: It's kind of a meme, isn't it, where guy goes

170
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 5: up and everyone sort of jumps yeah, in slow mo

171
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 5: like that, and that's what it was. The crewdit It's

172
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 5: like a soccer crowd when they just score a big

173
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 5: goal right at the end of the game or something.

174
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 5: It's like everyone just erupts, and you know, Pete Praniker

175
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:30,480
Speaker 5: on the call, he's great. But going back to the

176
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:32,640
Speaker 5: like the Bulls game as well, I mean even Adam

177
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 5: Amin and Stacey King were like, whoa.

178
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 3: You know, you don't hear a lot.

179
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 5: Of that from the opposing team, especially in a home game.

180
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 5: So he's just captivating everybody right now with these incredible plays.

181
00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 2: While this game is going on and Drummeran is putting

182
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 2: up highlight after highlight are very own. Lee Ellens is

183
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 2: texting the group saying, I'm buying tickets to the Grizzlies

184
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 2: Hawks game. It's on Friday night. It's on the eighteenth

185
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 2: or something like that. Who's in during the game. You

186
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 2: got this guy got you so hyped that you're I

187
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:03,679
Speaker 2: gotta go see him in person, And so tickets were purchased.

188
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:05,560
Speaker 5: I forgot, I forgot that he was coming to town,

189
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 5: and then I was just like, all right, I've got

190
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 5: to go now. It sort of jugged my memory because

191
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:11,280
Speaker 5: the last game I went to before the pandemic was

192
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 5: a Memphis Grizzlies game, and he was good, but it

193
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:15,160
Speaker 5: wasn't the what we're seeing right now. So I was like,

194
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 5: I gotta jump on that. This could sell out this game,

195
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,839
Speaker 5: standing ramonin standing mund is the only way to watch

196
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,560
Speaker 5: a game is because if he's trying down and dumb.

197
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:23,280
Speaker 2: You know, you're always standing.

198
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 4: I'm ready to jump.

199
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 3: We'll have to sit down.

200
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,200
Speaker 5: You can do the opposite.

201
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 2: And it was cool to see his teammates like they

202
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,440
Speaker 2: were actively trying to get him to fifty one. They

203
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 2: were so locked in on that. And then you saw

204
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,079
Speaker 2: the you know, the group photo at the end, and

205
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,120
Speaker 2: everybody is so ecstatic for him. I mean, he's not only,

206
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:44,840
Speaker 2: of course the leader of this team, but he's a

207
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 2: likable leader, and they wanted him to get this record

208
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:48,839
Speaker 2: and they were hyped. And then he's dancing through the

209
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 2: tunnel Like if you had just shown this to people

210
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:53,440
Speaker 2: last night that maybe don't follow them, but you would

211
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,240
Speaker 2: have thought, like the Grizzlies won the championship. Like even

212
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:59,680
Speaker 2: the shot from the ninety two foot Adams pass where

213
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:00,959
Speaker 2: he's like getting mobbed, it.

214
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 3: Looks like they've won.

215
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 2: It looked like they won the game and the game

216
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,880
Speaker 2: was over, but it's only halftime. It's just you know,

217
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 2: it keeps being said, but the vibes are amazing, with

218
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,560
Speaker 2: the squad, and you keep tweeting how you want them

219
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 2: to get up to second place so they have a

220
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 2: better chance to win a playoff series or two, or hell,

221
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 2: maybe even further.

222
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:18,439
Speaker 3: Who knows who this team is.

223
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,679
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I just want this to keep rolling, baby,

224
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 4: because the atmosphere in Memphis is wild. I mean, we've

225
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 4: got us who've been involved with the NBA for so

226
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 4: long and are ready to buy tickets, not even willing

227
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 4: to take press passes. I mean, we're not waiting for

228
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 4: these press passes now, we want to get in the building.

229
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 4: I mean that just speaks to this special thing going on.

230
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 4: I mean it's true. And maybe it's because it's a

231
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,560
Speaker 4: smaller guy and it's just so special to watch this dude.

232
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 4: But yeah, I mean one of my favorite moments this

233
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,079
Speaker 4: year is being able to see him in Memphis. I

234
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,720
Speaker 4: can't make it to that game or I'd go one

235
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 4: more time, but just being able to see him in person, Yeah,

236
00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 4: I'd love to see this Memphis, this situation. Yeah, it

237
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:01,800
Speaker 4: feels like a college town. Everybody jumping up obviously when

238
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 4: when he threw down the dunk, you know, everybody yet

239
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,240
Speaker 4: on the internet just joining in. I saw, Yeah, you

240
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:10,120
Speaker 4: watched one hundred times, everybody watching it on a hundred

241
00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:13,000
Speaker 4: times just to see each different person in the first row,

242
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,199
Speaker 4: second row, third row, and how they react. I saw

243
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:20,520
Speaker 4: Molly Morrison, who's from Memphis, tweet Oh that's my dad,

244
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 4: who jumped up in the blue sweater behind the bench.

245
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 4: I mean, there's just there's just everybody is. Everybody's together

246
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:30,839
Speaker 4: here on this this Grizzlies bandwagon. And it's because one

247
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 4: dude is he's so good at going you know, jumping

248
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,800
Speaker 4: up over people. He's so good at going north south

249
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:39,319
Speaker 4: when he wants to go, but he is also going

250
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:41,840
Speaker 4: east west. He's like he's stepping all over the lane.

251
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 4: He's just so fricking quick.

252
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:44,240
Speaker 1: That.

253
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:48,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's got everybody just just feeling good.

254
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 6: Even Molly Morrison's dad's wild man who would be on

255
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:58,280
Speaker 6: your list tray of like I'd putting down decent money

256
00:11:58,400 --> 00:11:59,439
Speaker 6: to go see them in person.

257
00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 2: And you watch a lot of basketball, but obviously even

258
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,600
Speaker 2: still as a fan, you're like, I need to see

259
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:06,800
Speaker 2: this guy right now in person.

260
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,240
Speaker 3: So John Moran, I assume is on that obnestly was

261
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 3: what we drove to Memphis for.

262
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 2: Crying out loud? Who else if you were to make

263
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:13,839
Speaker 2: a list of I don't know three or four other

264
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 2: guys would you have on your on your list.

265
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:20,400
Speaker 3: Curry still for me is must watch when the when

266
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 3: the Warriors come to Atlanta there one time a year.

267
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 3: That's a game that you want to try and uh

268
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 3: finagle some tickets for. I mean, you guys saw the

269
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:29,439
Speaker 3: warm up routine he's got going on now where you

270
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 3: just take a step back and keep making it every

271
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 3: single time. So that's super watchable. We did see a

272
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:37,480
Speaker 3: Luca game here in Atlanta not too long ago. I

273
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 3: think that's a big one. I also think you're looking

274
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:41,960
Speaker 3: at Western Conference teams right, teams that are only come

275
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:44,199
Speaker 3: and visit one time a year. That's a huge one.

276
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,599
Speaker 3: Big name players that I haven't seen live. Jannis I

277
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,400
Speaker 3: think would be number one. I just haven't seen one

278
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 3: of his games in person, and to see like the

279
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 3: speed and the size of which he plays would be huge.

280
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:57,200
Speaker 5: We were at the Fortress together, were we in the playoffs?

281
00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,439
Speaker 3: Video? Oh video, I'd be chanting cant heart? Yeah he

282
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 3: got hurt that game, was it right? Yeah? Yeah? Yeah?

283
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:07,080
Speaker 3: Wow definitely was Like I said that forgettable. Never mind,

284
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:08,679
Speaker 3: I don't want to see Giannis anymore. He makes it

285
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:11,719
Speaker 3: too easy. I will say this, John Morant is the

286
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 3: most watchable guy in the league since Steph Curry in

287
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 3: the twenty fourteen fifteen season when he won his first

288
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 3: MVP kind of came out of nowhere, took that huge

289
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 3: leap much the same way John Morant did. I do

290
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 3: think the Warriors have they beat the Spurs or something,

291
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 3: or maybe it was the Nuggets that year in the

292
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 3: playoffs the year before, right, and then in the fourteen

293
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,040
Speaker 3: fifteen season he took that huge leap and became like

294
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 3: an MVP candidate. Obviously he won it one at the

295
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:35,559
Speaker 3: next year as well. That's what this feels like to me.

296
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,199
Speaker 3: I mean, everybody wants to compare Jahmorant to somebody we've

297
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:41,560
Speaker 3: seen in the past. He's been compared like you say Penny,

298
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,320
Speaker 3: I say Derek Rose. Everybody says Russell Westbrook. Some people

299
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:45,959
Speaker 3: are starting to say John Wall Now.

300
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,319
Speaker 2: Still Simmons is saying young Michael Jordan in terms of

301
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:51,360
Speaker 2: how he attacks the rim and slithers around people.

302
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,360
Speaker 3: I'll take Dwyn Wade. I'll take Dwayne Wade for sure

303
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 3: when it comes to that. But that's what it is.

304
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 3: Every once in a while. There's a little guy who

305
00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,400
Speaker 3: kind of catches the league on fire, and nobody is

306
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:01,040
Speaker 3: sure how to deal with him. And he's the most

307
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:02,560
Speaker 3: watchable guy in the league, and right now that's job

308
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:02,960
Speaker 3: for sure.

309
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 4: Especially Papovich didn't know how to deal with them, just

310
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:06,720
Speaker 4: kept sending peerdl at him, and that.

311
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 2: Wasn't Yeah, THEREU be there would be a pick big

312
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 2: Adam's pick usually and the switch happens, and now it's

313
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 2: Jamaran against Pearl, and yeah, I think he had been

314
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 2: shook for the rest of the game after he got

315
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 2: dunked on there in the first half, because he scored

316
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 2: on him another like three or four times at the rim.

317
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:25,280
Speaker 5: Now, yeah, the pal was doing the right thing. Was

318
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 5: It's just when John just said it says, I'm just

319
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:29,680
Speaker 5: gonna jump over you. I mean, it's almost that sort

320
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:31,640
Speaker 5: of Fred Vince Gotta Fred Vviiss where it's like it

321
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,240
Speaker 5: doesn't matter who's it, I'm just rising up and I

322
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,440
Speaker 5: know I can sort of outstretch this guy.

323
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 3: To get there.

324
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 5: Some of the photos coming through of how far away

325
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,840
Speaker 5: he was like leaping a stretching that I'm at recredible.

326
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 2: And I think it was he explodes by Primo is it. Yeah,

327
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:48,680
Speaker 2: before dunks on Pearl and so I I think I

328
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:50,760
Speaker 2: reshared your video or maybe it was the video from

329
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:53,640
Speaker 2: the Grizzlies. I said, wow, look at the guy sitting courtside.

330
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 2: He knew because a guy and there's actually two guys.

331
00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 2: They stand up immediately when he goes around Primo like

332
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:02,240
Speaker 2: they know, Perl in trouble here, and everybody's pointing out, yeah,

333
00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:02,760
Speaker 2: that's his dad.

334
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, his dad's in of course.

335
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 2: I say, well, yeah, that makes sense. I guess dad

336
00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:08,760
Speaker 2: knew he was about to catch a body kill a

337
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:09,320
Speaker 2: seven footer.

338
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 4: Yeah. You mentioned even the photo after, like they are,

339
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 4: they're always in the group photos. That's something cool is happening.

340
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:17,000
Speaker 4: They made sure they got him to fifty, and John

341
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 4: looked up at the scoreboard to see that he put

342
00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:23,400
Speaker 4: fifty on the board. And he is, you know, everybody

343
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:25,600
Speaker 4: else's cheerleader on that team, Like he'll go on Twitter

344
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 4: and tell everybody that Desmond Bane should be most improved player.

345
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 4: So you know, it's it's a yang and a yang,

346
00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:32,560
Speaker 4: like it's a given a take with that guy. You know,

347
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:36,600
Speaker 4: he unlike other superstars that might just be in their

348
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:38,400
Speaker 4: own limelight a little bit like he is such a

349
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:42,200
Speaker 4: big cheerleader for everybody on that roster. So it's it's

350
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:43,600
Speaker 4: just a nice feeling.

351
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:45,120
Speaker 3: Great story right now in the NBA. And if you

352
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:48,080
Speaker 3: get a chance, I mean, look, this is the obvious,

353
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:49,600
Speaker 3: but yeah, go see him because he can.

354
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 2: You're right, You're right, Lee, He's doing this every night.

355
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,160
Speaker 2: It feels like over the last little stretch here where

356
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 2: there are three to ten, Like what type of plays

357
00:15:58,000 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 2: that you see in a game, You're like, I don't

358
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 2: remember seeing that be or wow, that reminds me of

359
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:03,400
Speaker 2: one of these other you know, Hall of Famers stuff

360
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 2: like that. It's it's pretty special.

361
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 3: Still, you're getting a guaranteed highlight when he plays against

362
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 3: the hat because if you have a substandard defense the

363
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 3: way the Bulls do and the way the the San

364
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:14,640
Speaker 3: Antonio Spurs do, you're asking for your center to get

365
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 3: dunked on or to be embarrassed in the lane at

366
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 3: some point. So sorry, Capella, Like Capella's gonna get crammed on.

367
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 2: You said you have family here in town that Friday night.

368
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, my mom is back in town. And the last

369
00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:25,800
Speaker 3: time she was in town we drove to Memphis to

370
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 3: see John. I told her this is a once in

371
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 3: a lifetime opportunity, so I could not do it the

372
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:35,360
Speaker 3: second time two months later. Fair enough, fair enough, right, well,

373
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 3: we'll be done at the fortress.

374
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:37,200
Speaker 2: I can't wait.

375
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:38,520
Speaker 3: Let's keep going here.

376
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 2: Gabe Vincent scores twenty as the Heat remained hot, topping

377
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 2: the Bulls one twelve to ninety ninety. These two of

378
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,480
Speaker 2: the best teams in the Eastern Conference trey, but the

379
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:50,200
Speaker 2: Heat looked a lot better last night.

380
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 3: I would say one of the most frustrating things when

381
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 3: you're a fan of a team is when there's just

382
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:59,280
Speaker 3: a random player out there who destroys your team multiple times.

383
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 2: Like Bradal, Like that's a good one.

384
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:06,360
Speaker 3: I saw Celtics fans were tweeting about Sadik Bay this week.

385
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 3: He shoots fifty five percent from three against the Celtics,

386
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:12,240
Speaker 3: thirty three percent against any other team, but he kills

387
00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 3: the Celtics, and for whatever reason, it's Gabe Vincent who

388
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,439
Speaker 3: owns the Bulls. Twenty points, four to threes, three assists

389
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,360
Speaker 3: last night, for Vincent second time this season already he's

390
00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:23,920
Speaker 3: had twenty against Chicago. He had a sixteen point fourth

391
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 3: quarter earlier this year. The guys only scored twenty or

392
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 3: more points seven times total in his career, averaging nine

393
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:33,080
Speaker 3: points per game this season twenty twice against the Bulls.

394
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:36,160
Speaker 3: This was I mean, it ended up being a close game,

395
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 3: but not really. This was a huge win for the Heat.

396
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 3: They out shot the Bulls on percentages, they made more threes,

397
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:43,840
Speaker 3: they won on the glass, they shot more free throws,

398
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:46,840
Speaker 3: they had more fast break points. The Bulls were competitive

399
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 3: in the fourth quarter after the game was over, and

400
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 3: that's why this is not a twenty five point win

401
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 3: for Miami. Miami locks down the season series three to zero,

402
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 3: take a two game lead for first place in the

403
00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,600
Speaker 3: Eastern Conference, and the Bulls are asking a lot of

404
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 3: question and people have a lot of questions about the

405
00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,840
Speaker 3: Bulls because they've really struggled against the best teams, specifically

406
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,720
Speaker 3: in the Eastern Conference. The loss to the Heat, to

407
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,320
Speaker 3: me is so similar to the loss to the Grizzlies

408
00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:12,440
Speaker 3: because they look out classed and it looks like they're

409
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:16,200
Speaker 3: not responding to the physicality that the other teams are bringing.

410
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:18,280
Speaker 3: That the Heat and the Grizzlies have brought. It's the

411
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 3: same problem for them against the other teams in the

412
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:22,800
Speaker 3: Eastern Conference, who they would have to theoretically beat to

413
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:24,840
Speaker 3: make a conference finals. The seventy six ers and the

414
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:28,960
Speaker 3: Bucks just bigger, stronger teams. Postgame, Billy Donovan said, we

415
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:30,879
Speaker 3: don't have a lot of guys who are battle tested,

416
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 3: and then he called out DeMar DeRozan who's gone far

417
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,280
Speaker 3: in the playoffs, and then obviously Tristan Thompson and Alex

418
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 3: krusoer a champions. So that's a guy that's been there

419
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:39,440
Speaker 3: for six months, a guy that's been there for a week,

420
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:41,520
Speaker 3: and a guy who has been there for six months

421
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:44,159
Speaker 3: and has missed most of the season. Levine obviously never

422
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:46,680
Speaker 3: made the playoffs. Vooch never got out of the first round.

423
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:48,760
Speaker 3: They got to figure out how to win some of

424
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 3: these games against teams that like hit you in the

425
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:53,840
Speaker 3: face yeap, and you got to respond and be like

426
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,400
Speaker 3: not just turtle go into your shell. At this point,

427
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:58,440
Speaker 3: they really need Caruso back. That to me is like

428
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:00,920
Speaker 3: the huge vibe check for the Bulls. He just brings

429
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,399
Speaker 3: so much intensity. He obviously brings the defense, which I

430
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:06,080
Speaker 3: think is huge, but more so just his attitude on

431
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:09,440
Speaker 3: the court and his NonStop competitive nature I think will

432
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 3: help the Bulls. We saw that when he came back

433
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:15,480
Speaker 3: earlier this season after after being in COROVID protocols, but

434
00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:17,480
Speaker 3: then he got hurt right away again. So he's getting

435
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:20,480
Speaker 3: closer to returning, which will help the Bulls. But yeah,

436
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,000
Speaker 3: you know, it seems like there are probably four very

437
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 3: good teams in the Eastern Conference, and the Bulls quite

438
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:28,480
Speaker 3: likely are number four on that list. Yeah, well, what

439
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 3: do you think about the Miami Heat here?

440
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 2: I think they have sort of gone under the radar

441
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 2: a little bit all season long in terms of like

442
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:35,359
Speaker 2: us talking about him, maybe you know, the rest of

443
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,320
Speaker 2: the media talking about them. And here they are with

444
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:39,000
Speaker 2: a forty one and twenty one record, And this is

445
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 2: with guys that have like you know, Butler missed time

446
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:43,879
Speaker 2: and Bam miss time. Lowry up playing last night. He

447
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,119
Speaker 2: missed a good chunk of time with family issues. But

448
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 2: you know, still an elite team, seventh overall in offense,

449
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:52,479
Speaker 2: sixth in defense, an incredible net rating, top five. I mean,

450
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 2: this team, you know, they should be included with all

451
00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:56,320
Speaker 2: these title contenders.

452
00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:56,960
Speaker 3: Yeah.

453
00:19:57,040 --> 00:19:58,959
Speaker 5: I don't know why we aren't sort of giving them

454
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:00,960
Speaker 5: more credit, but they've sort of snuck up because of

455
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 5: the other storylines we've seen, particularly with the Philadelphia seventy

456
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:05,560
Speaker 5: six is there've been a big one and the Bucks,

457
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,680
Speaker 5: I mean, they're the balls and the balls, so they've

458
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,119
Speaker 5: sort of taken away that limelight. And this is exactly

459
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:11,879
Speaker 5: what the heat like. Just fly under the right up,

460
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:14,320
Speaker 5: play really good defense, be a deep team. Because you

461
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:17,160
Speaker 5: mentioned Kyle Lowry out last night for personal reasons. Again,

462
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:19,200
Speaker 5: he missed some time earlier in the season, so to

463
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 5: miss him, and I've spoken about this before, I think

464
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 5: he's just so important for their offense. How he gets

465
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,159
Speaker 5: them going. When he's not there, their offense tends to

466
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:27,720
Speaker 5: really slow down. Jimmy Butler didn't have a great game

467
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 5: there last night, but this is perfect. They're deep, they're

468
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:32,840
Speaker 5: very well coached. They played both ends of the floor.

469
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:35,879
Speaker 5: They are going to be tough whoever they face. Certainly

470
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:37,639
Speaker 5: their first round they're going to get through that no problems.

471
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:39,680
Speaker 5: And then that second round if they would have faced

472
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:41,960
Speaker 5: you know, potentially a Milwaukee Bucks, that would be a

473
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:45,359
Speaker 5: great rematch because I think they're much better equipped to

474
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:47,960
Speaker 5: defend Yarnis this season than they have been in seasons

475
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:48,359
Speaker 5: gone by.

476
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:52,520
Speaker 2: So that's where he took one of their games. Yeah, exactly, PJ. Yeah,

477
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 2: and last year three of the rubber match.

478
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:57,200
Speaker 3: I'd be crazy, right, because I mean the Heat beating

479
00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 3: the Bucks in I guess that was in eighteen twenty

480
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 3: and the bubble was like, uh oh, what are the

481
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 3: Bucks ever gonna do? Yeah, and then they destroyed them

482
00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:05,840
Speaker 3: last year in the playoffs, and now it kind of

483
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,120
Speaker 3: felt like the Heat we're scuttling. So I would love

484
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:12,119
Speaker 3: that matchup a rivalry in the playoffs, exact wild stuff.

485
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:14,080
Speaker 5: And because it was a reason on him last year,

486
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:16,639
Speaker 5: so you know that doesn't even you may as well

487
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:19,040
Speaker 5: put me on him in that point. So, yeah, Miami

488
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:22,120
Speaker 5: are just cruising along perfectly right now, letting everyone else

489
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,199
Speaker 5: sort of fight and scrap over each other, and they

490
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:26,920
Speaker 5: you know, they're obviously in a very strong position to

491
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,400
Speaker 5: take home court for the entire Eastern Conference playoffs.

492
00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:30,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, what do you think?

493
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:33,280
Speaker 4: Mami absolutely the most overlooked team in the Eastern Conference

494
00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,159
Speaker 4: at the at the top of the picture. Yeah, at

495
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,159
Speaker 4: the top of the conference. There's just yeah, there's a

496
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 4: lot of good teams, a lot of good storylines we

497
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:41,000
Speaker 4: talked about. Did you mentioned the Nets or the Calves

498
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 4: as just teams that we've been talking about while the Heat, Yeah,

499
00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:46,240
Speaker 4: they continue to plug and play a bunch of guys.

500
00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:48,719
Speaker 4: The good thing about the fact that they've had all

501
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:53,080
Speaker 4: these injuries is that Lowry, Butler, Bam should all be

502
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 4: pretty fresh when it comes to the postseason and ready

503
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 4: to go and give those old bodies, you know, as

504
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:00,399
Speaker 4: those old bodies should be able to get as much

505
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:02,440
Speaker 4: as they possibly can for a two month run. You

506
00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 4: know they are. Yeah, they're they're weathered and they've been around,

507
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 4: so they know how much they have to give in

508
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:12,640
Speaker 4: the postseason. So that's exciting for them if you're watching. Yeah,

509
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:15,240
Speaker 4: their defense yesterday really really frustrate the balls.

510
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:18,080
Speaker 3: Thought they were locked in last night against the Bulls

511
00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:21,080
Speaker 3: in that first half, first quarter, the balls in the

512
00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:22,679
Speaker 3: first game, they were everywhere.

513
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,000
Speaker 4: It was nice to see Levine pissed a little bit.

514
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:26,960
Speaker 4: I like seeing Levin pissed. Usually he's like a no

515
00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:29,800
Speaker 4: emotion guy, but he was pretty angry towards the end

516
00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,119
Speaker 4: of this game. And yeah, they desperately miss Caruso and

517
00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:35,679
Speaker 4: Lonzo Ball on that side. But the heat. The strange

518
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:38,760
Speaker 4: thing is, you know they're pecking orders. It's sort of

519
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:41,160
Speaker 4: you know, you know what's coming. You know, Kyle Lowry

520
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:44,160
Speaker 4: will be the starting point guard over Gabe Vincent, who's

521
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:47,359
Speaker 4: there right now. But they're bringing back Victor Oladipo should

522
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 4: be ready to come back in the next couple of weeks,

523
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,680
Speaker 4: which is which is strange. Is he going to be

524
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:54,040
Speaker 4: part of the rotation? Can he add anything? I mean,

525
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 4: they are going to play him very minimal minutes. But

526
00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:00,840
Speaker 4: they're super deep. They are the one seed. Yeah, as

527
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:03,440
Speaker 4: Trey said, by a couple of games now and now

528
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 4: that they're healthy, now that they're clicking everywhere. They know

529
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:08,920
Speaker 4: this twenty game run here, they got twenty games left.

530
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:12,399
Speaker 4: This is when they put that that Heat culture. This

531
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:14,280
Speaker 4: is when it starts. They're gonna They're gonna go the

532
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:15,959
Speaker 4: rest of the I mean, just see that bam at

533
00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,200
Speaker 4: a Bio block was amazing. Yeah, it was. It was

534
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,399
Speaker 4: literally Ginny's block from the finals. Guarded guy on the perimeter,

535
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:25,080
Speaker 4: get back and stop the alley pass sexy times for

536
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:27,480
Speaker 4: the Heat that you know, the Bucks should still be

537
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 4: the favorites because they won the whole thing, but the

538
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 4: Heater just are right there as the one a like

539
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,159
Speaker 4: in that second tier. I think I think it's the

540
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:36,679
Speaker 4: Bucks and then everybody else. I think the Heat are

541
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:39,440
Speaker 4: like one A you know, along with the other teams

542
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:40,040
Speaker 4: we mentioned, he.

543
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,400
Speaker 2: Fans are gonna be pissed and and you a weird

544
00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:45,080
Speaker 2: way rightfully, So though he hasn't played enough games, when

545
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 2: it's all said done that Bam will not be in

546
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,680
Speaker 2: All NBA center because when you watch BAM play right now,

547
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:54,480
Speaker 2: he is elite. He raises their stealings so high and

548
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:57,160
Speaker 2: their title chances. But you know he's only played thirty

549
00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:58,000
Speaker 2: seven So what will.

550
00:23:57,800 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 3: It be at the end of the year.

551
00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 2: You know, whatever it's gonna be, it's is, it's gonna

552
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,119
Speaker 2: still be, you know, beating. You'll catch your you know

553
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,600
Speaker 2: one two there as your centers on your All NBA team.

554
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 2: And then who's gonna be the third guy? Go Bear,

555
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 2: maybe Towns. Yeah, I'm just saying Bam will very likely

556
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:13,840
Speaker 2: not be an All NBA selection at the center position.

557
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 2: And like I can already see it now, Pete, fans

558
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:17,639
Speaker 2: are gonna be especially the number one seas like, are

559
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 2: you kidding me? This guy's like twenty ten four. I

560
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:22,639
Speaker 2: mean you see the defense, like he's awesome. Maybe he

561
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:25,320
Speaker 2: gets an All defensive you know selection there on second team,

562
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,600
Speaker 2: but he is when he is back and playing at

563
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:28,080
Speaker 2: this level.

564
00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:30,399
Speaker 3: And then yeah, this was with out lowry last night. Jesus,

565
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:31,720
Speaker 3: that's starting five?

566
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:33,359
Speaker 4: Is that's you.

567
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 2: That's tough to score on.

568
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:39,240
Speaker 3: Kyle Butler, Bam, PJ, Who am I forgetting?

569
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:41,600
Speaker 2: And then you got your shoo yeah hero, So yeah,

570
00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:43,640
Speaker 2: one guy you can sort of like, quote unquote hide

571
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:45,600
Speaker 2: because it doesn't matter. The other four guys are elite defenders.

572
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 3: That's a nightmare. I wouldn't want to play them, that's

573
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:49,800
Speaker 3: for sure. If you also don't want to, yeah, that's

574
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:51,639
Speaker 3: exactly right. If you want some if you want some

575
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:53,919
Speaker 3: heat buzz. This is a big week for them. They

576
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 3: play the Bucks in Milwaukee on Wednesday, then they got

577
00:24:57,080 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 3: the Nets in Brooklyn on Thursday, followed by this seventy

578
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 3: six Rockets that's a w and then next Wednesday they

579
00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:07,399
Speaker 3: played the Suns. So they're playing four title contenders in

580
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,119
Speaker 3: the next week. Yeah, win all those. You're getting a

581
00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:11,440
Speaker 3: lot of talk, there'll be a lot of yeah.

582
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,120
Speaker 2: And I'm excited to see BAM and PJ on those

583
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:16,560
Speaker 2: those bigs, like you said, em beid and and Giannisar

584
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:17,840
Speaker 2: and Milwaukee and stuff like that'll be fun.

585
00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:19,000
Speaker 3: All right, let's keep it going here.

586
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:21,760
Speaker 2: Next game. Well, this is just a feel good story

587
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:25,879
Speaker 2: Markel Foltz score ten in his return Magic beat Pacers

588
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,800
Speaker 2: one nineteen one oh three. It was cool to see

589
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:33,639
Speaker 2: the standing ovation there from the somewhat sparse Orlando Magic crowd,

590
00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:36,600
Speaker 2: but everybody in attendance getting out, you'll Cole Anthony give

591
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:39,720
Speaker 2: him a huge hug as he checked in. He played

592
00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 2: sixteen minutes, he shot five of seven. I'm interested to

593
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:47,120
Speaker 2: hear your thoughts on his actual shot mechanics. It appeared

594
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,600
Speaker 2: smoother to me. This guy hasn't played in fourteen months

595
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:53,359
Speaker 2: because the ACL injury. There wasn't less hitch to that shot.

596
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:54,040
Speaker 3: Am I crazy?

597
00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,760
Speaker 5: Not at all? That was beautiful looking strike there. You

598
00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,680
Speaker 5: sort of remember seeing like draft video of him. That's

599
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:02,639
Speaker 5: what it sort of looked like. More where he was

600
00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:05,920
Speaker 5: smoother with his whole execution of how he shot the ball.

601
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:08,360
Speaker 5: He went inside, had some really nice handles as well,

602
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:12,000
Speaker 5: had the six assists. He looked beautiful. I mean, if

603
00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:14,520
Speaker 5: he can pan out, you know he's had the injury,

604
00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:16,480
Speaker 5: he's obviously had the terrible start to his career. If

605
00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 5: he can pan out, this is a great pickup.

606
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:19,000
Speaker 2: He's only twenty three.

607
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:20,320
Speaker 5: Wow, that's crazy.

608
00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:22,919
Speaker 3: It feels like we've talked about him for a dead Yeah, but.

609
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,159
Speaker 5: That shot is obviously so important because it looked like

610
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:28,360
Speaker 5: the guy hadn't shot a basketball before in his first

611
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 5: year or two there in Philadelphia, so he's been working

612
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 5: on it great. I'm really happy for him. I mean,

613
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:36,760
Speaker 5: I think people just want the best for this guy

614
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:38,879
Speaker 5: because we all saw him out there on the stage

615
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:40,959
Speaker 5: as a number one pick, and it's like, how did

616
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,320
Speaker 5: he get picked number one when he can't seemingly shoot

617
00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:45,119
Speaker 5: the ball, And then he had all sorts of crazy

618
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 5: issues as well, sort of with the team off the court.

619
00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 5: You know, there was videos of remember, and he was

620
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,280
Speaker 5: like almost bobbling the ball before he shot it. Gets

621
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:54,520
Speaker 5: the injury, now it comes back, so hopefully there's a

622
00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:56,440
Speaker 5: happy ending here for him. And at only twenty three,

623
00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:58,280
Speaker 5: he's still got plenty of time to figure it all out.

624
00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 2: And he had a couple like decent games. I remember

625
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 2: last season before the injury. Right at the start of

626
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:05,600
Speaker 2: that season, he had like a twenty six point game

627
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:07,879
Speaker 2: and yeah, another good game in there. Maybe we flirated

628
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:10,240
Speaker 2: with twenty. So there was like, oh, markl Folts, Okay,

629
00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:12,080
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, he's getting a chance here in Orlando,

630
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:13,960
Speaker 2: where you know, there are not a lot of bright

631
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:16,080
Speaker 2: lights on him and probably the best situation for him.

632
00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,080
Speaker 2: Then he had the injury unfortunately, but yeah, what'd you

633
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,240
Speaker 2: think of his return here for the Orlando matter?

634
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:22,359
Speaker 4: Definitely not a bright lights, not a lot of headlines

635
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:24,359
Speaker 4: the last couple months, he's been in practice for two months.

636
00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:26,960
Speaker 4: We haven't talked about him once as basketball nerds. I mean,

637
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:30,720
Speaker 4: he's been on a court in from December on and

638
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,160
Speaker 4: here he is looking like the best version of himself.

639
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,560
Speaker 4: You know, it's not the quickest of releases, but if

640
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:39,680
Speaker 4: he gets a little space, he can shoot it. So

641
00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:43,600
Speaker 4: it's yeah, a project that isn't a good spot in Orlando.

642
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 4: It sure seems like it's it's easier for him when

643
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:51,680
Speaker 4: he's outside of Yeah, a big market like Philadelphia and

644
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 4: what happened there. It's yeah, it's a fun team to

645
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 4: root for if you're a basketball geek, what are these

646
00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 4: these backcourt guys like, who's going to really pan out?

647
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 4: You know from Jalen Suggs as well as MARKL. Fultz

648
00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:08,159
Speaker 4: and Cole Anthony. If they're all great along with r. J. Hampton,

649
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 4: then it gets crowded, but you know, more than likely

650
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,920
Speaker 4: they're just hoping that a couple of them get really

651
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:16,040
Speaker 4: really good along with Franz and then and then they

652
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:18,160
Speaker 4: can take off. I mean, this is a bad team.

653
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:21,359
Speaker 4: And they also have Jonathan Isaac. You remember him. He

654
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:25,440
Speaker 4: hasn't played for that, but he's Jonathan Isaac, probably the

655
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:28,800
Speaker 4: projected best player of the future. He hasn't played forever

656
00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 4: because he's been hurt. And yeah, and then you got

657
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,680
Speaker 4: a bunch of guys that are just fun to rally around.

658
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:37,080
Speaker 4: So hopefully Mark L. Fultz, Yeah, he was happy out there,

659
00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:40,480
Speaker 4: and yeah, they gave him yea, even even if it

660
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 4: was just what was it only sixteen minutes, They gave

661
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:46,920
Speaker 4: him the locker room shower afterwards and everybody left.

662
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:49,040
Speaker 2: The magic of one two in a row here too,

663
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:52,400
Speaker 2: going for their for a three game win streak is

664
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:54,000
Speaker 2: on the table here. I think they have a pretty

665
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 2: uh maybe they're fifteen forty seven, which is tied in

666
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 2: terms of wins with the Pistons and the Rockets, So

667
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:04,720
Speaker 2: keep your eye on that. If you're a tanker, I.

668
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:05,720
Speaker 3: Would shut down faults that.

669
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:08,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, I mean it might help them too

670
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:11,000
Speaker 2: much there, but anything to add to the Markell Fults

671
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:11,480
Speaker 2: return trip.

672
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:13,760
Speaker 3: No, my takeaway was the same as yours great hug.

673
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:15,720
Speaker 3: It was a great hauld Anthony. That was a big

674
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:17,880
Speaker 3: d hug, especially from a guy who could theoretically take

675
00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:19,600
Speaker 3: your spot right. Like I mean, obviously they're on the

676
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 3: same team. They care about each other, but they're competitive

677
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:25,840
Speaker 3: surely with each other. And like Tas said, for whatever reason,

678
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:28,960
Speaker 3: you know, the Magic brought in Fults, and then they

679
00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,200
Speaker 3: drafted another point guard in Anthony, and then they drafted

680
00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:33,440
Speaker 3: another point guard in Jalen Suggs. That's just kind of

681
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,840
Speaker 3: a magic style. They find one kind of player they

682
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:37,840
Speaker 3: like and then just get as many of them as

683
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,320
Speaker 3: they possibly can. So we'll see which one of them

684
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:43,200
Speaker 3: actually pops. I don't know, it seems like there's ways

685
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 3: to probably keep two of them around long term. We'll

686
00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 3: see which two they are.

687
00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:49,120
Speaker 2: I'm gonna throw the rest of the games. Actually, you

688
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:50,640
Speaker 2: can touch on any of them that you want to.

689
00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,000
Speaker 2: And Talenting a late three pointer as the Wolves held

690
00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 2: off the Cabs one twenty seven two game of Game

691
00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:57,800
Speaker 2: of Runs and that one, Oh my goodness, h Scottie

692
00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:01,000
Speaker 2: Barnes baby made his first eleven sh shots as the

693
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:03,800
Speaker 2: Raptors romped. Is what I meant to say one thirty

694
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,480
Speaker 2: three ninety seven in Brooklyn, after I gave the Raptors

695
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 2: a loser of the weekend and big week up call

696
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:10,480
Speaker 2: there for them, Bucks scored forty four in the second quarter.

697
00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:12,280
Speaker 2: They rolled past the Hornets one thirty one or six.

698
00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:14,160
Speaker 2: I was a blow out and dearon Fox twenty nine

699
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 2: and ten to leave the King's Pass of the Thunder

700
00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 2: one thirty one one ten lead. There's four games, which

701
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:19,200
Speaker 2: one you want.

702
00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 4: To talk about.

703
00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:21,600
Speaker 5: I feel sorry for Kyle Anthony Towns and the Wolves

704
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:24,680
Speaker 5: because everyone was watching John Morant and they weren't really

705
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:27,760
Speaker 5: watching a great game. End there for Kyl Anthony, I

706
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 5: was I.

707
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:29,160
Speaker 2: Was watching crunch Time.

708
00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 3: Actually, oh were you?

709
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:30,880
Speaker 4: Yeah?

710
00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 3: It was sick man.

711
00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:35,280
Speaker 2: It was real Parish and uh Sam Mitchell doing a

712
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:36,160
Speaker 2: crunch timeline.

713
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:37,320
Speaker 3: Well it was easy to.

714
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:41,120
Speaker 2: Find on the NBA dot com app leak. Yeah, great,

715
00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:43,800
Speaker 2: it was right there, get all your games to pick from.

716
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:46,640
Speaker 2: And then there was a little thing that said crunch Time.

717
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 2: That's why I clicked on it. I was like, oh

718
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:50,320
Speaker 2: this is this is still going cool? Okay?

719
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 5: Anyway, yeah, well you mentioned it was a game of

720
00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 5: runs two and the Wolves were down fourteen early. Then

721
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:56,560
Speaker 5: up twenty three in the third, and then it was

722
00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:58,960
Speaker 5: tied within like thirty five seconds to go after Cheddy

723
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,280
Speaker 5: hit a big three and then Karl Anthony Town's in

724
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,960
Speaker 5: the same building he took home the three point shootout

725
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:07,040
Speaker 5: trophy just a week or so ago. Steps back. It's

726
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:10,080
Speaker 5: one of his you know, no jumping threes, knocked it

727
00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:13,360
Speaker 5: in and yeah, yeah, it was good.

728
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:13,880
Speaker 4: It was good.

729
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:16,040
Speaker 5: So that was that was actually pretty interesting game. No

730
00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:19,239
Speaker 5: Darius Garland here for the Calves who lose another one.

731
00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:21,960
Speaker 5: They're still they're fine, They're fine. Kevin Love had a

732
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:24,000
Speaker 5: great game off the bench there for them. But it

733
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 5: does feel like the Cavs need everybody out there playing,

734
00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 5: you know, like he's still Caslover, no Caroslovert, he's out

735
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,760
Speaker 5: again too. So but this was actually a really good game,

736
00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:35,000
Speaker 5: especially in that fourth quarter when the Caves were making

737
00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:39,880
Speaker 5: that run and Patrick Beverley committed. On the broadcast, they

738
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:42,520
Speaker 5: were saying, I can't remember who it was now saying

739
00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:45,200
Speaker 5: that's guaranteed either a flagrant or a clear part y.

740
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:47,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, guaranteed.

741
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 5: Was on Cheddy. Yeah yeah, and he wrapped him up

742
00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:53,040
Speaker 5: and he and Cheddy's moment, it wasn't it wasn't nasty.

743
00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 3: It wasn't. It wasn't there was everybody thought it was

744
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 3: mebi a clear path.

745
00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:58,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's the only one because he kind of got

746
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:00,400
Speaker 5: him on the in front, but they sort of, I

747
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:02,120
Speaker 5: guess said he was in front of him. Patrick bedl

748
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:03,840
Speaker 5: In the end anyway, Jeddy only made one of two

749
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:06,760
Speaker 5: free throws, which which kind of cost him in the end.

750
00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:09,720
Speaker 5: But other than that, great game by both teams and

751
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:12,680
Speaker 5: the Wolves, good victory for them to hang on considering

752
00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:14,400
Speaker 5: they nearly blew that twenty three point league.

753
00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:16,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, were you watching your Wolves Calves game here?

754
00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:20,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, Anthony Towns just a calm step back three to

755
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:22,160
Speaker 4: win that thing. He was just feeling it, and he

756
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 4: said after the game, this is this arena is probably

757
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:29,040
Speaker 4: the most comfortable I feel in and any arena. So

758
00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:30,280
Speaker 4: it's interesting.

759
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:32,560
Speaker 2: Let me be a fun poll to ask all the

760
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:35,040
Speaker 2: NBA players outside of your own arena, which I assume

761
00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:37,520
Speaker 2: what they would say a lot, which just which barn

762
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:39,400
Speaker 2: do you like shooting in the most? Like because of

763
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:41,480
Speaker 2: the lighting, because of the sight lines, because of whatever.

764
00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:43,560
Speaker 2: I mean, it's gotta be they probably have an answer.

765
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:44,360
Speaker 3: They're sick os.

766
00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:47,240
Speaker 4: Yeah this one, Yeah, for sure, I wonder would they

767
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:48,880
Speaker 4: pick home, I mean just because they.

768
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:52,760
Speaker 2: I would think so, because yeah, because yeah, other.

769
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:54,680
Speaker 4: Than your other than your own barn. Yeah, he won

770
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:56,720
Speaker 4: the three point contest in Cleveland a couple of weeks

771
00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:58,920
Speaker 4: ago and now feeling good. So yeah, let's get ready

772
00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:01,680

778
00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:23,960
Speaker 4: Kyrie Irving unavailable, KD not playing obviously, Ben Simmons not playing.

779
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:28,040
Speaker 4: Ben Simmons not practicing this week, Nash said, pregame with

780
00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:33,680
Speaker 4: a very raw voice. Steve Nash, Yeah in COVID protocols. Yeah, yeah,

781
00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:37,160
Speaker 4: he sounded sick. And then the announcement happened. So hopefully

782
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:38,320
Speaker 4: Steve Nash is okay.

783
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:40,280
Speaker 3: Yea armstrong in COVID protocols too.

784
00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:45,800
Speaker 4: It's happening all over with the broadcasters. But Ben Simmons

785
00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:49,880
Speaker 4: definitely not practicing this week, so yeah, canceled the trip

786
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:53,040
Speaker 4: it ain't happening for us, not going March tenth of Philadelphia,

787
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:55,960
Speaker 4: because if he's not practicing this week, it would be

788
00:33:56,040 --> 00:34:00,680
Speaker 4: getting in jumping into Tuesday's game potentially, and Thursday would

789
00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:02,520
Speaker 4: be the game. So maybe getting in one game as

790
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:06,560
Speaker 4: not happened. Absolutely not happening. But hey, Darren Fox is good.

791
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:10,000
Speaker 2: Now twenty nine said, I mean, yeah, I'm sure we

792
00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:12,719
Speaker 2: won't talk too much about that. Well, wow, just back

793
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:14,759
Speaker 2: to the Scottie Barnes legit had one of the best

794
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:17,280
Speaker 2: all around performances by a Raptor and he's only a rookie.

795
00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:19,760
Speaker 2: In twenty eight points, he hit his first eleven shots,

796
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:22,880
Speaker 2: so he finished twelve or fourteen sixteen rebounds, which was

797
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:24,879
Speaker 2: tied for the second most by a Raptor's rookie, five

798
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:27,160
Speaker 2: steals tied for the most by a Raptors rookie, and

799
00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:28,920
Speaker 2: he threw in four cis for good measure. That's a

800
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:31,359
Speaker 2: hell of a game. And Nick Nurse after the game said,

801
00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:33,600
Speaker 2: we don't run a single play for him. Yeah, I

802
00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 2: mean he's basically sewn Mary. They're like, yeah, just you'll

803
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:39,960
Speaker 2: get hairs, Yeah, to any will because of his motor

804
00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:41,040
Speaker 2: and he was everywhere.

805
00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:41,600
Speaker 3: He was amazing.

806
00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:45,440
Speaker 4: And nine offensive rebounds because they don't run anything for him.

807
00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:47,680
Speaker 4: But yeah, a nose for the ball, right, he's always Oh.

808
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:49,719
Speaker 2: My god, yeah, yeah that was I mean, you know,

809
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:51,759
Speaker 2: I'm joking that they went out and did that because

810
00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:53,080
Speaker 2: I gave him a loser the weekend. But it was like,

811
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:54,800
Speaker 2: as we talked about, it's like a sort of like

812
00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 2: a much needed win to like sort of you know,

813
00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:00,960
Speaker 2: after those two brutal losses to the Hornets and Hawks,

814
00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:03,759
Speaker 2: here's another team right there in the mix with them

815
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:05,640
Speaker 2: when it comes to seating, and they got that done.

816
00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:09,000
Speaker 2: We'll see what happens here tonight in Toronto. Can they

817
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:09,479
Speaker 2: do it again?

818
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:13,400
Speaker 3: Play like that? I doubt it.

819
00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:16,880
Speaker 2: I don't know for sure. Any other thoughts tray on

820
00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:18,879
Speaker 2: any of those games from last night. Maybe you want

821
00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:22,000
Speaker 2: to talk about Deer and Fox and it's twenty No no,

822
00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:23,960
Speaker 2: I didn't take no, no, no, no, no.

823
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:26,040
Speaker 3: I did what you did. I tuned in to watch

824
00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:29,120
Speaker 3: Minnesota versus Cleveland and the other four games, the other

825
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:32,759
Speaker 3: games that allegedly were happening. I don't believe it.

826
00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:36,279
Speaker 2: Oh, don't believe it. We're gonna take a first break

827
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:38,000
Speaker 2: when we come back A bunch of random questions for

828
00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 2: you guys and everybody watching and listening, don't go anywhere,

829
00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:44,280
Speaker 2: all right back with Noduck's here in the Classic Factory.

830
00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:47,360
Speaker 2: This isn't tweeting the night that's coming up later and

831
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:49,200
Speaker 2: I've got that. But there were a bunch of tweets

832
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:51,800
Speaker 2: that piqued my interests last night that I thought that

833
00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:53,399
Speaker 2: can make for a fun question. And the first one,

834
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,800
Speaker 2: it's a bit of news. It's from Scham's at the Athletic.

835
00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,439
Speaker 2: He said that the Los Angeles Lakers intend to waive

836
00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:03,440
Speaker 2: DeAndre Jordan and sign free agent guard DJ Augusty. Yes,

837
00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:07,759
Speaker 2: Dj for DJ going big to small, I guess just

838
00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:10,880
Speaker 2: test just quickly. There are rumors that the Sixers might

839
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:13,839
Speaker 2: be interested in DeAndre Jordan or are you a fan

840
00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:16,000
Speaker 2: of this idea? Does he have anything left to give

841
00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:18,759
Speaker 2: in this league? Getting up there in age and the

842
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:20,960
Speaker 2: position he played and sort of what he didn't give

843
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:21,560
Speaker 2: to the Lakers?

844
00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:22,719
Speaker 3: What do you think?

845
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:23,640
Speaker 1: Hmmm?

846
00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:27,320
Speaker 4: That's my thought? Is he going to play in the playoffs?

847
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:29,239
Speaker 4: Would he play? Or is he just sort of a

848
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:32,719
Speaker 4: fill in here for twenty games? That's what I imagine

849
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,719
Speaker 4: him being. My immediate thought is, Okay, they give away

850
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:37,960
Speaker 4: Andre Drummond as their backup center. Who is taking those

851
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:41,960
Speaker 4: minutes behind Joel Embiid right now that DeAndre Jordan would surpass,

852
00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:45,960
Speaker 4: would be better than and what's the answer. I mean,

853
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,279
Speaker 4: I didn't even look it up. The backup center is

854
00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:52,440
Speaker 4: Willie Coley probably their backup center right now.

855
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:55,560
Speaker 3: You might get a you might get a bee ball, Paul. Yeah,

856
00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:57,680
Speaker 3: those guys, those guys are better.

857
00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:01,400
Speaker 4: Yes, I agree. I guess he's a locker room guy.

858
00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:03,240
Speaker 4: For high fives, he must.

859
00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:07,640
Speaker 2: Be the greatest locker room guy of all time. Everybody

860
00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:10,279
Speaker 2: wanted everybody them around for a little bit at least,

861
00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:12,040
Speaker 2: and then they were like, oh, maybe he doesn't. They

862
00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:12,800
Speaker 2: really have it anymore.

863
00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:14,640
Speaker 4: I saw him cook some stuff. I want to cook

864
00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:16,400
Speaker 4: with him. He's a very nice guy. Yeah, yeah, I

865
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:18,560
Speaker 4: guess that's what he is. And and to be around

866
00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:20,440
Speaker 4: just to eight minutes because he just doesn't have the

867
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:23,400
Speaker 4: athleticism anymore to toss the ball to him. He used

868
00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:25,600
Speaker 4: to be able to get up way over the rim. Yeah,

869
00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:27,960
Speaker 4: that didn't happen, and he's not. He can't really defend

870
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,760
Speaker 4: on the perimeter. If the Lakers are saying goodbye, then.

871
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:33,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's yeah.

872
00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:33,959
Speaker 3: That's a great point.

873
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,399
Speaker 2: If the Lakers are waving you right now with where

874
00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:39,000
Speaker 2: they're at, then that that's rough. But anyway, this.

875
00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:43,239
Speaker 4: Time j Augustine though, with the Lakers, that's who's sure.

876
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:46,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's older, they somehow got older.

877
00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:48,160
Speaker 2: He's older than DeAndre Jordan.

878
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:49,000
Speaker 5: I think he's a year older.

879
00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:49,239
Speaker 1: Wow.

880
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:51,560
Speaker 2: But it came up on the top Shaw Hot Boys

881
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:53,160
Speaker 2: yesterday and showed it to everybody that joined Tray and

882
00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:54,000
Speaker 2: I ripped.

883
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:54,840
Speaker 3: Some packs on that.

884
00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:55,799
Speaker 6: Uh.

885
00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:58,640
Speaker 2: It came up because I was like, I think, was

886
00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:00,440
Speaker 2: it a Drummond moment we had or maybe it was

887
00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:02,160
Speaker 2: a DeAndre Jordan moment? And then I was like, what's

888
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:03,919
Speaker 2: going to be weirder? And I threw this a TK

889
00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:06,680
Speaker 2: is like that Drummond made an All NBA team or

890
00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:09,239
Speaker 2: that DeAndre Jordan did. And then I was like, hold on,

891
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:12,879
Speaker 2: let me just fact check that. WHOA DeAndre Jordan made

892
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:15,320
Speaker 2: three All NBA teams.

893
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 5: He was a first team at once he was yeah,

894
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:18,560
Speaker 5: and then.

895
00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 2: Two thirteenth Yeah, THREEBA selections Deondre Jordan. I'm not meaning

896
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:25,040
Speaker 2: to pile on the guy here. That is really crazy.

897
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 2: And then we had Mike Zikerrey in there from Team

898
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:30,839
Speaker 2: hold in the chat saying that's a pretty fun question.

899
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:35,359
Speaker 2: What are some other sort of questionable or all NBA

900
00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:37,840
Speaker 2: selections that have aged poorly or at least you're like,

901
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 2: what the hell? So that's the cue for you guys

902
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:41,680
Speaker 2: here at the table, it's the cue for everybody on stream.

903
00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:44,160
Speaker 2: Team orybody listening later. I want to know, off of

904
00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:47,400
Speaker 2: the DeAndre Jordan making three All NBA teams, is there

905
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:49,640
Speaker 2: another All NBA selection where you're like, oh, that looks

906
00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:52,920
Speaker 2: that's just odd or looks bad or poorly however you

907
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:54,239
Speaker 2: want to put it. Any won't come to mind.

908
00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:56,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, DeAndre Jordan did make an All Star team

909
00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:57,120
Speaker 5: as well.

910
00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,760
Speaker 3: Know, I made one All Star game but three selection.

911
00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:02,719
Speaker 5: So I sort of went down that path. And I

912
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:04,800
Speaker 5: tried to find guys who were All NBA but not

913
00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:08,120
Speaker 5: All Stars, and I found three. I stopped at about

914
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:09,919
Speaker 5: nineteen ninety five. I was like, all right, I've got enough.

915
00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:14,640
Speaker 5: Al Jefferson in twenty fourteen was All NBA thirteen. Never

916
00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:17,040
Speaker 5: an All Star. Okay, good player, you know, decent player,

917
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:19,200
Speaker 5: one of those probably could have should have made it.

918
00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:21,560
Speaker 5: He's on the walls in I think he was on

919
00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:22,680
Speaker 5: the bob.

920
00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think he was on.

921
00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:27,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, Horner, it's like where they Bob got someone. Anyway,

922
00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:29,080
Speaker 5: he was on that team maybe a piecer.

923
00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:31,080
Speaker 2: No.

924
00:39:31,480 --> 00:39:34,680
Speaker 5: And then another one was Andrew Bogan in twenty ten,

925
00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:37,440
Speaker 5: was on the third team as the center, never made

926
00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:39,640
Speaker 5: an All Star team. That was his best year to

927
00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:40,600
Speaker 5: make one, but he never did.

928
00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:41,080
Speaker 3: Interesting.

929
00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:45,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, and he was an All NBA second team All

930
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:47,839
Speaker 5: defense as well, but never made an All Star team.

931
00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:49,719
Speaker 5: So this was Bucks bog yes, of course.

932
00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:51,000
Speaker 3: Yeah. And then Rod.

933
00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:54,520
Speaker 5: Strickland made the second team in nineteen ninety eight. And

934
00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:58,040
Speaker 5: now I'm not questioning you know, he wasn't a very

935
00:39:58,040 --> 00:39:59,920
Speaker 5: good player. He was a good player, he just never

936
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:02,120
Speaker 5: made an All Star team. So to make a second

937
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:04,520
Speaker 5: team yeah and never make an All Star team is

938
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:08,160
Speaker 5: pretty pretty unlucky. So those were the three that I

939
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:10,560
Speaker 5: found who never made an All Star team but did

940
00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:11,480
Speaker 5: make All NBA.

941
00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:14,640
Speaker 3: Okay, Okay, those are great, great deep dive there, Yeah,

942
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:15,680
Speaker 3: reference I like that.

943
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:17,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, Al Jefferson was a bobcat.

944
00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:18,640
Speaker 2: You guys are okay?

945
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:21,640
Speaker 3: Does anyone else come to mind for either of you guys?

946
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:23,959
Speaker 4: Go ahead, Trea, I'll make a different point.

947
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:26,719
Speaker 3: David Lee, I think is a funny one made All

948
00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:29,640
Speaker 3: NBA with the Warriors in the twenty twelve thirteen season.

949
00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:32,080
Speaker 3: Had a solid season eight eighteen and a half points

950
00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:34,759
Speaker 3: per game, eleven rebounds per game, shot fifty two percent

951
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:37,759
Speaker 3: from the field, and the Warriors got so much better

952
00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:39,680
Speaker 3: when they replaced him with Draymond Green, to the point

953
00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:42,800
Speaker 3: you're like, oh, yeah, David Lee. It was a walking

954
00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:45,960
Speaker 3: double double for the Warriors back in the day. Also

955
00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:47,719
Speaker 3: made an All Star team earlier in his career with

956
00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:50,120
Speaker 3: the Knicks. Same thing. He was just putting up massive

957
00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:53,440
Speaker 3: numbers season after season for a little bit of time there,

958
00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:56,200
Speaker 3: and then suddenly it was small ball time. And David Lee,

959
00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:58,400
Speaker 3: you would think would be a good small ball player,

960
00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:00,200
Speaker 3: but maybe he should have shifted up to the live

961
00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:01,759
Speaker 3: or something. I don't know what the deal is, but

962
00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:03,680
Speaker 3: that's a weird one to me, very weird.

963
00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:07,719
Speaker 4: I think DeAndre Jordan making the center spot just kind

964
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:11,040
Speaker 4: of speaks to us having to change the positions for

965
00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:14,239
Speaker 4: all NBA, right, because you're kind of pigeonholing a guy

966
00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:16,759
Speaker 4: in there that may not be one of the best

967
00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:19,160
Speaker 4: quote unquote bigs in the league, but you have to

968
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:22,080
Speaker 4: have a center. So I think that's what kind of happened.

969
00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:24,400
Speaker 4: He was playing on a really good team with the Clippers, obviously,

970
00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:26,920
Speaker 4: and he was great defensively, he really was.

971
00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:29,520
Speaker 3: I mean, Chris Paul really helped him get on a couple.

972
00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, like my my general rule and me sort of

973
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:36,719
Speaker 4: not loving the Rudy go Bear picks in general, where

974
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:38,880
Speaker 4: you got to be able to create your own bucket

975
00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:40,359
Speaker 4: a little bit. If you're gonna be an All NBA player,

976
00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:42,000
Speaker 4: if you're gonna be one of the best fifteen players

977
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:44,799
Speaker 4: in the league, you kind of have to be able

978
00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:47,800
Speaker 4: to score a little bit. And Rudy Gobert and DeAndre

979
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:50,279
Speaker 4: Jordan are guys, yeah that that need to be set up.

980
00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:53,759
Speaker 4: But if you look the years that DeAndre Jordan made it,

981
00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:58,080
Speaker 4: Al Jefferson was in the mix there, Dwight was sort

982
00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:00,759
Speaker 4: of at the tail end joking. Noah had a really

983
00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:04,160
Speaker 4: short run, and then you know, the Gosols were pigeon

984
00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:07,200
Speaker 4: into the center spot. Andre Drummond made an All NBA

985
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:10,360
Speaker 4: team to Marcus Cousins that year that DeAndre Jordan was

986
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:12,040
Speaker 4: the best center in the league. The other two were

987
00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:14,480
Speaker 4: Cousins and Andre Drummonds.

988
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:18,040
Speaker 2: So you're saying like there was we were reaching, yeah

989
00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 2: for for second and third centers teams. Yeah, and now

990
00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:25,040
Speaker 2: we're luckily we have well now come back with Yo

991
00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:28,120
Speaker 2: Kitchen EMBIID, you know as MVP winners and front runners

992
00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:30,960
Speaker 2: and uh you know, and then of course like bam and.

993
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:33,279
Speaker 4: Now yeah, now that's not a problem. Now that's not

994
00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:35,520
Speaker 4: a problem. Yeah in Towns. Yeah, it's like you got

995
00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:38,000
Speaker 4: your one two and Yo Kitchen EMBIID. Then yeah, picking

996
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:41,239
Speaker 4: Towns out of Bio or Gobert is your third one, right, Yeah,

997
00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:41,960
Speaker 4: so maybe I'm wrong.

998
00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:44,240
Speaker 3: I will say there's a lot more bold on DeAndre

999
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:47,719
Speaker 3: Jordan's basketball reference page than I would have remembered. He

1000
00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:50,160
Speaker 3: led the league in field goal percentage five times, led

1001
00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:52,600
Speaker 3: the league in rebounding two times. I mean, that's solid

1002
00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:55,560
Speaker 3: center stuff. And like you're saying, I mean the field

1003
00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:58,280
Speaker 3: goal percentages you're catching out oops or offensive rebounds.

1004
00:42:58,320 --> 00:42:58,840
Speaker 4: That's what it is.

1005
00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:02,560
Speaker 3: But that's not Rudy Gobert makes all NBA teams as well.

1006
00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:05,040
Speaker 2: Who's going to have a more memorable career then DeAndre

1007
00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:11,120
Speaker 2: Jordan or Andre Drummond. It's all said and done. Drummond, Yes,

1008
00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:13,839
Speaker 2: just because of rebounding them.

1009
00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:18,399
Speaker 4: The team, the team that DeAndre Jordan is on, true

1010
00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:19,680
Speaker 4: or was on, will be remembered.

1011
00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:24,080
Speaker 2: So unless Drummond has like an incredible resurgence here for

1012
00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:26,040
Speaker 2: the Nets and plays a pivotal part in a in

1013
00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:28,000
Speaker 2: a championship run, maybe he's helped out by that.

1014
00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:28,879
Speaker 4: That's not I guess.

1015
00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:31,040
Speaker 3: So Okay, that's a fun.

1016
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:31,920
Speaker 2: Question for everybody out there.

1017
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:35,359
Speaker 3: Okay. Next one, this is from bett MGM. Are good

1018
00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:36,080
Speaker 3: friends over there.

1019
00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:41,120
Speaker 2: They tweeted John Morant is running away with the Most

1020
00:43:41,239 --> 00:43:44,279
Speaker 2: Improved Player award at the current moment, and they say

1021
00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:49,000
Speaker 2: running all capslocks because they're sharing the mi IP odds

1022
00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:52,160
Speaker 2: on bet MGM and we're showing to them, showing them

1023
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:54,759
Speaker 2: here to you on YouTube. So if you're listening, I'm

1024
00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:56,480
Speaker 2: not going to go through all the names, but John

1025
00:43:56,520 --> 00:44:00,960
Speaker 2: Morant minus six hundred, so in odds on favorite to

1026
00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:03,800
Speaker 2: win MIP, you got Miles Bridges plus seven to fifty,

1027
00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:06,960
Speaker 2: you got Darius Garland plus fourteen hundred, de Jontay Marie

1028
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:09,880
Speaker 2: plus sixteen hundred, and Perony Simon's plus thirty five hundred,

1029
00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:11,920
Speaker 2: and then it goes on even derosan oh my god,

1030
00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:16,080
Speaker 2: is on this list. But I'm interested to hear your

1031
00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:19,320
Speaker 2: all take on this because I this feels weird to me.

1032
00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:22,520
Speaker 2: John Moran as a Most Improved Player. It almost like feels,

1033
00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:25,600
Speaker 2: I don't know, feels almost disrespectful because he's like at

1034
00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:28,000
Speaker 2: the MVP table. So I just find that part weird.

1035
00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:32,000
Speaker 2: But maybe you disagree. Is Jaw your I P favorite

1036
00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:34,040
Speaker 2: tray or do you also find it strange that a

1037
00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:35,640
Speaker 2: guy at that levels in the mix? What do you

1038
00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:36,640
Speaker 2: think about this whole thing?

1039
00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:38,600
Speaker 3: This is the first time I thought about the Most

1040
00:44:38,600 --> 00:44:41,400
Speaker 3: Improved Player award this year. Okay, that and the sixth

1041
00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:43,080
Speaker 3: Man of the Year are like two awards that are

1042
00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:45,840
Speaker 3: kind of just out there right now. You know, I'm like,

1043
00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:48,000
Speaker 3: Tyler Herro is probably gonna win six Man of the Year, right,

1044
00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:51,320
Speaker 3: It'll probably be Tyler Harrow. And now that I see this,

1045
00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:54,480
Speaker 3: I think it's gonna be Jaw. Yeah, I think it's

1046
00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:56,680
Speaker 3: going to be Okay, was it?

1047
00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:56,840
Speaker 5: Ye?

1048
00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:59,120
Speaker 3: Hundred percent? He's got the Gianni's case went from good

1049
00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:01,600
Speaker 3: to great, same as Giannis being a first time All Star.

1050
00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:04,040
Speaker 3: This was Jo's first season as an All Star. He's

1051
00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:07,319
Speaker 3: no doubt their team MVP for a team that has

1052
00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:10,120
Speaker 3: improved quite a bit. He's not gonna win League MVP

1053
00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:13,520
Speaker 3: most likely. So this is kind of like the junior

1054
00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:16,880
Speaker 3: MVP Award kind of I think so, yeah, I actually

1055
00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:19,400
Speaker 3: kind of do now think that Jaws the man, because

1056
00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:22,440
Speaker 3: there's not really another candidate that blows my socks off.

1057
00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:26,680
Speaker 3: I think would probably have Garland number two. Similar case

1058
00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:29,600
Speaker 3: to Job, but just a little bit lesser, being in

1059
00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:32,600
Speaker 3: their third season, becoming All Stars, being the engine that

1060
00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:35,120
Speaker 3: drives their team, and obviously the Cavs improved as well.

1061
00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:37,720
Speaker 3: You could say Murray is in the mix. Anthony Simons,

1062
00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:40,359
Speaker 3: I guess is kind of the traditional. Yeah, he became

1063
00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:42,520
Speaker 3: a role guy now seems to be a bit of

1064
00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:45,399
Speaker 3: a cornerstone for the Blazers. That's a case we've seen

1065
00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:49,120
Speaker 3: before in MIP voting. But I don't know. I think

1066
00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:52,080
Speaker 3: it might be John. I kind of am convinced now well.

1067
00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:54,640
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, bet MGM and the betting odds agree

1068
00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:57,800
Speaker 2: with you, and I think recently you're right. It's like

1069
00:45:58,280 --> 00:46:01,719
Speaker 2: guys that were good went to All Star level. Great

1070
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:04,840
Speaker 2: Julius Randa last year, Brandon Ingram the year before that.

1071
00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:07,640
Speaker 2: Siakam was then the year before that. Now he had

1072
00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:09,480
Speaker 2: he wasn't an All Star that year, but he was

1073
00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:12,279
Speaker 2: well on his way O La depot. Same thing you said,

1074
00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:15,759
Speaker 2: Yannis exactly that happened. C J didn't make it, but

1075
00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:18,200
Speaker 2: there's a lot Jimmy Butler another example. So of these

1076
00:46:18,280 --> 00:46:20,960
Speaker 2: last like eight years, a lot of these guys did

1077
00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:24,200
Speaker 2: the jamarant like leap. But I guess the difference is

1078
00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:26,480
Speaker 2: he's leaps he's left even higher right like we have

1079
00:46:26,600 --> 00:46:29,160
Speaker 2: him at the MVP table. None of those guys I

1080
00:46:29,239 --> 00:46:31,240
Speaker 2: really listed in those particular years.

1081
00:46:31,040 --> 00:46:33,600
Speaker 3: Were like top four, top five in an MVP conversation.

1082
00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:35,840
Speaker 3: That's what making this one strange to me.

1083
00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:39,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's similar to Jannis's case, as Trey said, but

1084
00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:42,520
Speaker 4: you're right that year Jannis wasn't an MVP candidate. No,

1085
00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:46,000
Speaker 4: but this could be yeah, Josh trajectory of yeah maybe

1086
00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:46,399
Speaker 4: next year.

1087
00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:48,360
Speaker 2: Well, there was one thing you brought it up earlier

1088
00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:51,320
Speaker 2: in the show. Curry won m VP and there was

1089
00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:54,040
Speaker 2: like a good month or two buzz when he went

1090
00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:56,800
Speaker 2: on to win it again of people him of wanting

1091
00:46:56,880 --> 00:47:01,280
Speaker 2: him to win Most Improved was like coch, I remember

1092
00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:02,239
Speaker 2: getting upset about that.

1093
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:03,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, of course do.

1094
00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:06,120
Speaker 2: You have Ja Moran as your MIP favorite or and

1095
00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:07,080
Speaker 2: your fine was there? What do you think?

1096
00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:09,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, he'll win this award because he should win it

1097
00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:12,120
Speaker 5: because he has taken the biggest leap. I think he's

1098
00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:14,120
Speaker 5: gone up from nineeen points a game to twenty seven

1099
00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:16,840
Speaker 5: a game. He's shooting more, he's shooting better, he's getting

1100
00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:19,320
Speaker 5: more or not more assist or in more rebounds. Feurissists.

1101
00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:21,279
Speaker 5: But that's fine. The team's winning. He's made such a

1102
00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:24,759
Speaker 5: big staple. So I understand your case of like he's

1103
00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:26,880
Speaker 5: almost a bit too above that award.

1104
00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:29,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, it almost feels leam that we have him in

1105
00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:32,839
Speaker 2: the MVP conversation than like Trey said, like here's your

1106
00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:35,480
Speaker 2: You're not gonna get MVP, but here's the MIP.

1107
00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:37,759
Speaker 5: Yeah, So I think what you're saying, it should go

1108
00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:40,520
Speaker 5: to someone more who's like just taking a good leap

1109
00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:43,480
Speaker 5: this season and improved, like Desmond Bane, his teammate. I

1110
00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:45,560
Speaker 5: think it's been incredible this season. He's not going to

1111
00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:47,520
Speaker 5: win the award because of what Jar is doing. So

1112
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:50,000
Speaker 5: Jar will win the award, but there are some other

1113
00:47:50,080 --> 00:47:51,880
Speaker 5: guys with good case. Anthony Edwards has called off a

1114
00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:53,719
Speaker 5: little bit. I thought he was really good to start

1115
00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:55,920
Speaker 5: this season, and Tyler Hero I can't believe he's at

1116
00:47:55,920 --> 00:48:01,520
Speaker 5: plus twenty five thousand right to win the award. No,

1117
00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:04,880
Speaker 5: he will not win it, So that is weird to me.

1118
00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:07,400
Speaker 5: But yeah, DeRozan in there is like so people do

1119
00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:11,160
Speaker 5: consider sometimes like, Okay, he's had such a good season,

1120
00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:12,799
Speaker 5: maybe he could be most improved even though he's been

1121
00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:16,520
Speaker 5: an All Star. Yeah, I mean I also think Jaron

1122
00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:19,040
Speaker 5: Jackson's other teammate, jar Moran there in Memphis, he's had

1123
00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:20,880
Speaker 5: also a really really good season if you look at

1124
00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:24,680
Speaker 5: the stats, though they are certainly not significantly better than

1125
00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:26,879
Speaker 5: they've been over the other seasons. His impact on the game, though,

1126
00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:30,040
Speaker 5: has been much better. So but if you're a betting man,

1127
00:48:30,400 --> 00:48:32,960
Speaker 5: just go heavy on jar Moran. He should win this

1128
00:48:33,320 --> 00:48:34,040
Speaker 5: very comfortably.

1129
00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:37,080
Speaker 4: Okay, I don't mind the Desmond being I've bet being

1130
00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:40,280
Speaker 4: over Jerry Jackson Junior. I mean, his numbers of essentially doubled,

1131
00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:44,800
Speaker 4: so it's not, you know, good to MVP level, but

1132
00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:47,640
Speaker 4: it's yeah, he's average project.

1133
00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:51,960
Speaker 2: He's a second year player, which is like they all improve.

1134
00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:54,719
Speaker 3: Sounds like Taylor Jenkins is running away with Coach of

1135
00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:54,960
Speaker 3: the Year.

1136
00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:58,600
Speaker 2: It's got a lot of these guys running three players

1137
00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:01,080
Speaker 2: as most of route well, it seems like the stream

1138
00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:05,080
Speaker 2: team is maybe like split on this one. Yeah, should

1139
00:49:05,160 --> 00:49:08,279
Speaker 2: Ja Moran, Ben An MIP conversation or should he just

1140
00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:09,799
Speaker 2: almost be off of this ballot? Should go to one

1141
00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:11,640
Speaker 2: of these other guys? But other people saying, yeah, why not,

1142
00:49:11,719 --> 00:49:15,120
Speaker 2: He's made the leap. It's pretty incredible. Final one from

1143
00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:19,600
Speaker 2: r Kalend on Twitter. Robbiekellen, good friend, everybody's a friend

1144
00:49:19,600 --> 00:49:23,320
Speaker 2: of ours, pointed out Tristan Thompson wearing number three is

1145
00:49:23,520 --> 00:49:25,200
Speaker 2: just dreadful esthetics.

1146
00:49:26,160 --> 00:49:27,960
Speaker 3: He is not a single digit guy.

1147
00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:30,879
Speaker 2: Stop this madness. That's what Robbie Kellen tweeted last night.

1148
00:49:31,120 --> 00:49:33,080
Speaker 2: I did think it looks weird and I'm watching this

1149
00:49:33,600 --> 00:49:36,200
Speaker 2: Bulls Cavs game or excuse me, Bulls heat game last night,

1150
00:49:36,600 --> 00:49:38,520
Speaker 2: so I thought it was a fun question task you

1151
00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:41,560
Speaker 2: can get it started outside of maybe Tristan Thompson. Maybe

1152
00:49:41,560 --> 00:49:44,400
Speaker 2: you disagree with Robbie, but what's the weirdest player Jersey

1153
00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:45,920
Speaker 2: combo number going on right now?

1154
00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:50,200
Speaker 4: Hear what you're saying, Robbie, big guy, little number. Nobody

1155
00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:53,279
Speaker 4: likes it. Nobody likes it, especially because Tristan Thompson's worn

1156
00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:57,200
Speaker 4: higher numbers throughout his career. So to me, Montres Harrold

1157
00:49:57,280 --> 00:49:59,759
Speaker 4: is exactly the same. He's worn a higher number now

1158
00:49:59,800 --> 00:50:01,919
Speaker 4: with Charlotte Hornet's only been there a couple of weeks.

1159
00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:04,439
Speaker 4: He's got a low number. He's got number eight, single

1160
00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:07,640
Speaker 4: digit guy. Uh so it's weird. Listen. I'm I'm like,

1161
00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:10,920
Speaker 4: what happened in the NFL these days? I'm of that mentality.

1162
00:50:11,719 --> 00:50:14,920
Speaker 4: Wide receivers can have a single digit number. I'm okay

1163
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:17,840
Speaker 4: with that. Go crazy, they've changed it this year. Go

1164
00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:22,200
Speaker 4: crazy to me. Montrez is a big who plays big

1165
00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:26,239
Speaker 4: and he doesn't do outside stuff like Tristan Thompson, sort

1166
00:50:26,239 --> 00:50:28,920
Speaker 4: of same thing. If you're a vooch, you can wear

1167
00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:33,040
Speaker 4: a single digit nine. Yeah, he plays outside. But if

1168
00:50:33,080 --> 00:50:35,680
Speaker 4: you're if you're just if you're strictly a big man,

1169
00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:38,800
Speaker 4: get on that fifty or that fifty five. That's not

1170
00:50:38,960 --> 00:50:39,800
Speaker 4: popular anymore.

1171
00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:47,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, you gotta wear fifty five side patches shot.

1172
00:50:48,280 --> 00:50:52,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, sorry, big guy. Yeah that's my man. Mark Hoffinger

1173
00:50:52,680 --> 00:50:55,279
Speaker 4: in high school, Darrel Smith's for me. Yeah, tharrow him

1174
00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:57,239
Speaker 4: in the jersey, put on the fifty five. But it's

1175
00:50:57,360 --> 00:51:00,719
Speaker 4: just it's a disrespected jersey and nobody wants to wear fifty.

1176
00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:01,879
Speaker 5: Or is there one?

1177
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:03,680
Speaker 3: Is there a fifty five right now? That was a

1178
00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:06,879
Speaker 3: little guy that was always weird. Jason Williams that Oh yeah,

1179
00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:07,959
Speaker 3: that's okay.

1180
00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:09,880
Speaker 2: So you're you're on manchos herl Yeah, I think.

1181
00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:11,759
Speaker 4: I think also if you're if you were eight, maybe

1182
00:51:11,880 --> 00:51:15,719
Speaker 4: Kobe changed my mentality. You can't have to be really good,

1183
00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:20,319
Speaker 4: like like superstar level. Now, you know, everybody wears twenty three.

1184
00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:22,919
Speaker 4: There's a lot of guys who wear twenty three, damulate MJ.

1185
00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:28,200
Speaker 4: But number eights they generally, yeah, they're not they're not

1186
00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:30,920
Speaker 4: always amazing. But there's some number eight's in the Hall

1187
00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:33,879
Speaker 4: of Fame. Little trivia time guys who wore number eight

1188
00:51:33,920 --> 00:51:36,480
Speaker 4: who are in the Hall of Fame. Kobe Bryant obviously

1189
00:51:37,320 --> 00:51:41,640
Speaker 4: is not. Unfortunately he didn't make it. That stuff. It's tough.

1190
00:51:42,040 --> 00:51:47,560
Speaker 4: I'll help you out because Walt Bellamy, Nate Clifton or

1191
00:51:47,600 --> 00:51:51,600
Speaker 4: Nott Clifton, Earl Lloyd in the fifties, and then three

1192
00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:54,520
Speaker 4: guys who wore it very briefly. So I'm just gonna

1193
00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:56,200
Speaker 4: give them to you. It's trivia time for me. Just

1194
00:51:56,800 --> 00:51:59,919
Speaker 4: just give it's too hard where you're gonna guess, Earl Lloyd.

1195
00:52:00,040 --> 00:52:02,200
Speaker 3: I don't think these are all players from the nineteen

1196
00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:02,680
Speaker 3: fifties and.

1197
00:52:02,680 --> 00:52:05,719
Speaker 4: Sixties, yes, okay, but there's one. There's one there's one.

1198
00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:08,360
Speaker 4: There's a couple in the eighties, a couple in the eighties,

1199
00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:13,280
Speaker 4: but they wore them for one or two seasons. Moses Malone.

1200
00:52:13,880 --> 00:52:16,439
Speaker 3: Nice, there's a big guy with a single bidget number.

1201
00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:19,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, number eight. Yeah, that's true, that's true. And he

1202
00:52:20,000 --> 00:52:22,200
Speaker 4: wore a good call. He wore eight for two seasons.

1203
00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:28,520
Speaker 4: Now there's two more, okay, from yes eighties and nineties. Yeah,

1204
00:52:29,719 --> 00:52:32,400
Speaker 4: this guy wore it at the absolute end of his career,

1205
00:52:32,600 --> 00:52:34,920
Speaker 4: which was in the middle of the eighties. So he

1206
00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:38,200
Speaker 4: played in the seventies known for another team, but then

1207
00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:40,959
Speaker 4: he went to someone's favorite team. Here at the team

1208
00:52:41,640 --> 00:52:42,960
Speaker 4: George Georgia.

1209
00:52:44,160 --> 00:52:45,439
Speaker 3: Four plus four equals eight.

1210
00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:49,279
Speaker 4: Nice, that's what it was. Huh Yeah, probably okay, And

1211
00:52:51,239 --> 00:52:54,560
Speaker 4: a European player who wore You definitely didn't know him

1212
00:52:54,719 --> 00:52:57,359
Speaker 4: with the team that he wore eight on. You knew

1213
00:52:57,440 --> 00:52:59,879
Speaker 4: him for playing with another team.

1214
00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:01,160
Speaker 5: Now, one of the.

1215
00:53:01,400 --> 00:53:05,719
Speaker 4: Most notorious early European players that came over and he's

1216
00:53:05,719 --> 00:53:10,000
Speaker 4: in the Hall, so coach no, because yeah, he wanted

1217
00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:13,040
Speaker 4: Marshall Serus Marshall o Onis that's right.

1218
00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:13,520
Speaker 6: Uh.

1219
00:53:13,680 --> 00:53:16,239
Speaker 4: He wore number eight for one year. Last thing. Jay

1220
00:53:16,320 --> 00:53:20,399
Speaker 4: Scrubb wears zero for the Clippers scrub wearing a zero.

1221
00:53:21,200 --> 00:53:24,040
Speaker 4: Not a good match. I don't think right, and maybe

1222
00:53:24,160 --> 00:53:26,280
Speaker 4: you know he's playing into it a little bit, but whatever.

1223
00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:29,680
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, what do you got for a weird player?

1224
00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:30,560
Speaker 2: Jersey combo?

1225
00:53:31,480 --> 00:53:34,239
Speaker 3: Luka Doncic is number seventy seven. That's a hockey that

1226
00:53:34,320 --> 00:53:34,680
Speaker 3: was your pick.

1227
00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:35,560
Speaker 5: That was my pick too.

1228
00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:37,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's going to go down as one of the

1229
00:53:37,360 --> 00:53:39,680
Speaker 3: best players in NBA history. Quite likely. His jersey will

1230
00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:41,719
Speaker 3: most likely be retired and it's going to be number

1231
00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:44,360
Speaker 3: seventy seven. I would ask you guys to do a

1232
00:53:44,440 --> 00:53:47,799
Speaker 3: trivia number seventy sevens, but you would get a lot

1233
00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:49,759
Speaker 3: of them, but you wouldn't really care. Barnianni with the

1234
00:53:49,800 --> 00:53:53,520
Speaker 3: Knicks ye seventy seven, Damari Carroll with the Spurs seventy seven,

1235
00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:57,680
Speaker 3: Erson Iliosova, Bucks and Jazz seventy seven. It's basically role guys,

1236
00:53:57,800 --> 00:53:59,680
Speaker 3: except for Luka Doncic is out there looking like a

1237
00:53:59,760 --> 00:54:02,359
Speaker 3: left tackle. Yeah, shooting step back three.

1238
00:54:02,760 --> 00:54:05,239
Speaker 5: Paul car I thought it was Capono too, but he

1239
00:54:05,280 --> 00:54:07,640
Speaker 5: wore seventy two on the Lakers.

1240
00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:08,520
Speaker 3: I think that's a weird.

1241
00:54:08,719 --> 00:54:08,919
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1242
00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:11,319
Speaker 3: I would say the most notable seventy seven thus far

1243
00:54:11,719 --> 00:54:16,000
Speaker 3: would either be George mirasan seven seven or Vladimir Radmanovic

1244
00:54:16,040 --> 00:54:17,760
Speaker 3: who wore it for like every one of his teams.

1245
00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:20,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, he used to wear seven growing up, right, and

1246
00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:23,000
Speaker 4: then why did he go to seventy seven?

1247
00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:24,160
Speaker 3: Powell number seven?

1248
00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:25,280
Speaker 4: Something happened.

1249
00:54:26,200 --> 00:54:27,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe maybe it's retired.

1250
00:54:27,560 --> 00:54:28,719
Speaker 2: So that's who you went on your life?

1251
00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:29,000
Speaker 4: I had.

1252
00:54:29,080 --> 00:54:30,920
Speaker 5: I had, don't you too, because the question was for

1253
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:33,480
Speaker 5: a current league today and I thought it is kind

1254
00:54:33,520 --> 00:54:36,040
Speaker 5: of weird that, like it's sort of we've just assumed

1255
00:54:36,239 --> 00:54:38,120
Speaker 5: because he's so good it doesn't really matter. But he

1256
00:54:38,320 --> 00:54:41,960
Speaker 5: just rocks number seventy seven out there. So yeah, it's

1257
00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:43,680
Speaker 5: kind of weird, but he can pull it off. So

1258
00:54:44,520 --> 00:54:45,560
Speaker 5: who kids he changed?

1259
00:54:45,560 --> 00:54:48,200
Speaker 4: He changed on Real Madrid he wore for a while.

1260
00:54:48,239 --> 00:54:51,400
Speaker 4: But then there was an older player, claimant Propelle. She

1261
00:54:51,520 --> 00:54:53,520
Speaker 4: was wearing seven, so he said, I'm wearing seventy six.

1262
00:54:55,120 --> 00:54:57,080
Speaker 4: That was Yeah, that was an older Slovenian player.

1263
00:54:57,320 --> 00:54:59,560
Speaker 2: That's why we have it all right, Well, fun question

1264
00:54:59,560 --> 00:55:03,160
Speaker 2: for everybody listening and watching, what is, in your opinion,

1265
00:55:03,280 --> 00:55:07,719
Speaker 2: the weirdest player slash jersey number combo in the league

1266
00:55:07,719 --> 00:55:08,520
Speaker 2: today air of all time.

1267
00:55:08,600 --> 00:55:09,279
Speaker 4: Have some fun with it.

1268
00:55:09,400 --> 00:55:10,880
Speaker 2: We gotta take one more break when we come back

1269
00:55:10,960 --> 00:55:13,320
Speaker 2: tweet of the night, and we'll start up a brand

1270
00:55:13,360 --> 00:55:14,440
Speaker 2: new pick'm for.

1271
00:55:14,520 --> 00:55:18,799
Speaker 3: The month of March. Don't go anywhere, all right, let's

1272
00:55:18,840 --> 00:55:19,799
Speaker 3: get to tweeted.

1273
00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:27,160
Speaker 4: The night Tweet of the night. Wow, well it only.

1274
00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:29,000
Speaker 2: Feels right to go back to John Morant. You know,

1275
00:55:29,080 --> 00:55:31,320
Speaker 2: he started talking the show about him and his performance

1276
00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:33,680
Speaker 2: and his fifty two points and all the highlights and

1277
00:55:34,200 --> 00:55:37,160
Speaker 2: what a guy, what a player, and caught the eye

1278
00:55:37,200 --> 00:55:40,759
Speaker 2: of Allan Iverson Hall of Famer Allen Iverson last night,

1279
00:55:41,080 --> 00:55:46,239
Speaker 2: who tweeted a picture with John Morant's jersey hanging off

1280
00:55:46,560 --> 00:55:51,640
Speaker 2: Alan Iverson's Most Valuable Player award there sooner or later,

1281
00:55:52,120 --> 00:55:55,799
Speaker 2: Ai says, I respect Iverson. He's like, get the fuck

1282
00:55:55,840 --> 00:55:57,719
Speaker 2: out of here with your most improved. This guy's gonna

1283
00:55:57,719 --> 00:56:00,680
Speaker 2: be winning MVP sooner or later. And then the best

1284
00:56:00,760 --> 00:56:05,000
Speaker 2: part is John Moran sees this and retweets it with

1285
00:56:05,160 --> 00:56:08,600
Speaker 2: another photo. It's a hell of a photoshop from.

1286
00:56:08,840 --> 00:56:12,120
Speaker 5: Lee Olsen at Shift Refreshing Australia.

1287
00:56:12,239 --> 00:56:15,320
Speaker 2: Great work, and John Moran saying past the torch og

1288
00:56:15,600 --> 00:56:19,000
Speaker 2: flame emoji. I also love that response. I feel like

1289
00:56:19,080 --> 00:56:21,680
Speaker 2: so many players. She's like, you know, thank you man.

1290
00:56:21,719 --> 00:56:24,080
Speaker 2: From a legend. That's the best thing ever. This guy's like, yeah,

1291
00:56:24,280 --> 00:56:26,640
Speaker 2: that's you're right, just pass the torch, let's go. And

1292
00:56:26,680 --> 00:56:29,320
Speaker 2: then a fund of the photoshop there of John Morant,

1293
00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:32,280
Speaker 2: a young young Ja Morante, and Allen Everson.

1294
00:56:32,360 --> 00:56:32,880
Speaker 3: So there you go.

1295
00:56:33,520 --> 00:56:34,920
Speaker 2: Just a nice, fine moment on Twitter.

1296
00:56:35,239 --> 00:56:37,080
Speaker 4: I can't believe we had the discipline to not talk

1297
00:56:37,120 --> 00:56:39,960
Speaker 4: about it during our breakdown because it was a great

1298
00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:43,520
Speaker 4: the great tweet from from yeah, the legend, just to

1299
00:56:43,600 --> 00:56:46,320
Speaker 4: be able to say I love this game and I

1300
00:56:46,440 --> 00:56:48,160
Speaker 4: love the young players. You know, he's not like an

1301
00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:52,239
Speaker 4: old fart, right, Yeah, that's so it's nice. And he

1302
00:56:52,360 --> 00:56:54,800
Speaker 4: was at All Star weekend he just called He's just like,

1303
00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:57,719
Speaker 4: I love this thing. He watches uh Lee pass because

1304
00:56:57,760 --> 00:57:00,920
Speaker 4: of Steph Curry, he said, didn't mention John Morant actually

1305
00:57:01,360 --> 00:57:03,680
Speaker 4: in that he said, I bought lead Pass because of

1306
00:57:03,760 --> 00:57:07,680
Speaker 4: Stephen Kirk. But maybe, uh yeah, John's worth of price

1307
00:57:07,680 --> 00:57:09,440
Speaker 4: the league pass themselves. So nice moment.

1308
00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:11,759
Speaker 2: I've got another tweet here from Charles Oakley who says

1309
00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:15,279
Speaker 2: John Morant wouldn't even be on a team in the

1310
00:57:15,400 --> 00:57:16,000
Speaker 2: eighties all.

1311
00:57:16,880 --> 00:57:18,720
Speaker 5: Grizzlies didn't exist, so he's technically right.

1312
00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:21,640
Speaker 3: He's technically right, damn it, you got me? Uh No,

1313
00:57:21,680 --> 00:57:24,640
Speaker 3: I'm just kidding about that. Pick them. Let's get to it.

1314
00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:29,040
Speaker 2: Brought to you by That's MGM. Dallas Lakers is our game.

1315
00:57:29,080 --> 00:57:30,880
Speaker 2: We're starting it all over. Tasso is a bunch of

1316
00:57:30,920 --> 00:57:31,640
Speaker 2: pick and payoffs.

1317
00:57:31,880 --> 00:57:32,480
Speaker 3: He's up to three.

1318
00:57:32,560 --> 00:57:34,800
Speaker 2: I still a one plan on doing it this week,

1319
00:57:34,880 --> 00:57:38,560
Speaker 2: so don't you worry. But tonight's game task is Dallas

1320
00:57:39,640 --> 00:57:42,040
Speaker 2: La Lakers. And what's the line on this one?

1321
00:57:42,680 --> 00:57:46,200
Speaker 4: When I threw dal Lao into the dock and I knew,

1322
00:57:46,240 --> 00:57:48,440
Speaker 4: I knew everybody is gonna be jumping on those maps

1323
00:57:48,480 --> 00:57:51,960
Speaker 4: because the Lakers were just embarrassed. Yeah, but I think

1324
00:57:52,040 --> 00:57:54,600
Speaker 4: they will bounce back from the embarrassment. I just gotta

1325
00:57:54,640 --> 00:57:56,600
Speaker 4: be the different guys. I like it in a hole,

1326
00:57:57,080 --> 00:58:00,200
Speaker 4: like it in a hole. Plus five and a half

1327
00:58:00,280 --> 00:58:02,840
Speaker 4: points to the MAVs, so they got to lose by

1328
00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:06,200
Speaker 4: five or less at home on TNT you three. I

1329
00:58:06,320 --> 00:58:08,520
Speaker 4: think the Mas will win by six or more. I

1330
00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:11,640
Speaker 4: just get a little faith. The MAVs barely pulled one

1331
00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:14,440
Speaker 4: out on Sunday. They lost to the Jazz on Friday

1332
00:58:14,480 --> 00:58:16,880
Speaker 4: when Rudy Gobert did a really good job on Luka

1333
00:58:16,960 --> 00:58:19,640
Speaker 4: Dacch one on one on the perimeter, trying to expose him.

1334
00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:22,680
Speaker 4: I can see Dwight Howard doing the same. Just kidding,

1335
00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:26,240
Speaker 4: but I do think the Lakers will, you know, put

1336
00:58:26,280 --> 00:58:29,280
Speaker 4: a fourth in effort. We'll see what happens. Doubleheader on DNT,

1337
00:58:30,080 --> 00:58:33,280
Speaker 4: Boston host and the Hawks and then the MAVs and

1338
00:58:33,360 --> 00:58:35,800
Speaker 4: the Lakers. Golden State Minnesota another good one as well.

1339
00:58:36,120 --> 00:58:38,120
Speaker 2: You have no faith in the Lakers right now. That

1340
00:58:38,160 --> 00:58:39,200
Speaker 2: could have been any team.

1341
00:58:39,120 --> 00:58:39,640
Speaker 4: Playing in LA.

1342
00:58:39,800 --> 00:58:42,480
Speaker 5: Right when it came through this morning and I saw

1343
00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:45,320
Speaker 5: the Lakers at home plus five and a half points,

1344
00:58:45,320 --> 00:58:48,320
Speaker 5: It's like, wow, that's crazy, just crazy to think that

1345
00:58:48,400 --> 00:58:51,000
Speaker 5: the Lakers would be dogs, underdogs by that much at

1346
00:58:51,040 --> 00:58:56,720
Speaker 5: home against anybody. Not anybody, I mean the Pistons or

1347
00:58:57,120 --> 00:58:59,280
Speaker 5: Magic or Thunder or someone. We're in town, all the

1348
00:58:59,320 --> 00:59:02,080
Speaker 5: thunder of plan of pretty well this she is anybody, yeah,

1349
00:59:02,280 --> 00:59:03,040
Speaker 5: hick guy, anybody.

1350
00:59:03,160 --> 00:59:05,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll see. Watch the Lakers win here tonight and

1351
00:59:05,720 --> 00:59:08,560
Speaker 2: Tassel probably take an early, early lead in the month

1352
00:59:08,600 --> 00:59:10,200
Speaker 2: of March, but everybody else has the Maps win by

1353
00:59:10,240 --> 00:59:13,440
Speaker 2: six and Tests has the Lakers as dogs. Good luck
