22
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,360

23
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: postseason one in the finals there put them all together.

24
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:16,080
Speaker 1: Fun little video reliving all of the wedgies with the

25
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 1: calls too, which is fun.

26
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 2: How many times broadcasters actually use the word wedging It

27
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:22,760
Speaker 2: can very impressive.

28
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 3: We can crunch the number.

29
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 2: Yes, it increases every single time.

30
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:27,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeap.

31
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 1: So we will drop that tomorrow at ten am, so

32
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 1: you can come check that out later. In today's podcast,

33
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 1: we're talking Yannis, yeah baby, oh yeah. We've got a

34
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:41,640
Speaker 1: new I guess sort of new Yannis trade rumor Bill

35
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 1: Simmons really kicking it off. We'll get into that and

36
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 1: whether there's any validity to Yannis going to the Celtics.

37
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 1: But but, but butt. The New York Knicks did the

38
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 1: impossible over the weekend. They won their first championship since

39
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 1: nineteen seventy three. That was a big deal. We jumped

40
00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 1: on Sunday here in the Classic Factory to do a podcast.

41
00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 1: Go check that one out, recapping Game five, talking about

42
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:05,680
Speaker 1: the finals. The parade is set for Thursday. That's gonna be.

43
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 1: That's gonna be must sy TV slash social media. I

44
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 1: think that one in New York. Hopefully they got good

45
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 1: weather there. You know, they're always fun. But I feel

46
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,920
Speaker 1: like this one. Oh, maybe I'm over hyping it. I'm

47
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 1: excited for this one. So we'll see him. We'll talk

48
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 1: about it, I'm sure on Friday's podcast. But before we

49
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 1: say goodbye to this regular season. In the season NBA

50
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,799
Speaker 1: Finals winners and losers, I thought we could do here

51
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 1: obvious winner, New York Knicks. Obvious. There's a lot more

52
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 1: we can dig into. Yeah, GK, you get us started here.

53
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 1: We'll do a couple of rounds of this from both sides.

54
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,400
Speaker 3: Who's your big winner from the finals? Deep cut as well?

55
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 4: Jalen Brunson for me, is one of the big winners

56
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 4: from this NBA Finals. He was the unanimous Finals MVP,

57
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 4: finished at almost thirty three points a game, four rebounds,

58
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 4: four and a half assist, averaged eleven per fourth quarter

59
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,160
Speaker 4: as well, And that's really where he won Finals MVP

60
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,079
Speaker 4: if you ask me. But the reason I say he

61
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 4: is the biggest winner here not a deep cut at all.

62
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 4: But this is one of the most valuable single titles

63
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:14,640
Speaker 4: that a player could win. Legacy wise, Jalen Brunson winning

64
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:18,080
Speaker 4: a ring for the Knicks is more important than Lebron

65
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,919
Speaker 4: going to Miami and winning two more important than Kevin

66
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 4: Durant going to the Golden State Warriors and winning too.

67
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,520
Speaker 4: Being the first guy to New York, being the first

68
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 4: guy to lead the Knicks to a title in the

69
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 4: two thousands, in fifty three years, that matters a whole bunch.

70
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 4: It's up there with Dirk Novitsky sticking it out for

71
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 4: his entire career in Dallas and finally getting over the

72
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 4: hump in twenty eleven. This will maybe go down as

73
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 4: a bigger deal historically because it is the Knicks. But

74
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 4: I mean, we've been talking since the Knicks made the finals.

75
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 4: Where does this put Jalen Brunson in the realm of

76
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 4: Knicks players all time? If he's third at worst, pretty

77
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 4: awesome to be the third best player for a team

78
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 4: like the Knicks, one of the most storied franchise an

79
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 4: NBA history. So Jalen Brunson an easy winner.

80
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 1: I think it's interesting those two names you used as

81
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 1: comparisons there in Lebron and KD Once upon a time

82
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 1: are many times being linked to the New York Knicks

83
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 1: as the savior?

84
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 3: Could they go in finally? Get why I bring them up?

85
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, Lebron, everybody thought he was going to New York

86
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,599
Speaker 4: in twenty ten. Yep, yep, yeah, Kady, don't you regret

87
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,040
Speaker 4: not coming to the Knicks was a hilarious joke that

88
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 4: was kind of like early in the run of the

89
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 4: Jalen Brunson area of the bing Bong era. So both

90
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:29,960
Speaker 4: of those guys had a chance to go to New York.

91
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:31,840
Speaker 4: If they go to New York and win only one

92
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:33,559
Speaker 4: title there and it's the only title in their career,

93
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 4: it would matter more, I think than the ones they

94
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 4: got after those free agency moves. Look, Lebron's in twenty

95
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 4: sixteen is a different category as well. That's more like

96
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 4: what Brunson did for sure. But both Lebron and Katy

97
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 4: had a chance to go to the Knicks and do

98
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 4: what Brunson did, they decided not to.

99
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,160
Speaker 3: Brunson did it. He's awesome.

100
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, Lebron's was cool, and that he went back to

101
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 2: Cleveland to do exactly what he needed to do, and

102
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 2: that one definitely usurps his in Miami for him, There's

103
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 2: no doubt about that. So yeah, this was admirable in

104
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,480
Speaker 2: so many ways for Jalen Brunson, including that he got

105
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 2: tons of admiration from the opponent Victor wembin Yama. When

106
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 2: he talked postgame, he basically said, what I'm going to

107
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 2: work on postseason is to look like that guy Jalen Brunson. Essentially,

108
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 2: he quotes said he wanted to maintain control of the

109
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,600
Speaker 2: game at all times. That's what really stands out about

110
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 2: Jalen Brunson, for example, noting that guy by name, saying

111
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,160
Speaker 2: that guy over there, that's what I want to be like. Essentially.

112
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 2: You know, you talked about working hard or being more durable,

113
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 2: keep a fresh mind and all that, but he said,

114
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 2: there's too many moments. It doesn't come from bad intentions,

115
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 2: but there are too many moments where I'm passive, I

116
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:45,560
Speaker 2: don't have control over the game. And he wants to

117
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 2: be like Jalen Brunts and Jalen Brunson has his opponents,

118
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 2: the guys he defeats wants to be like him. He's

119
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:55,000
Speaker 2: got kids, I'm sure trying to have that dribble package

120
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 2: bounce into like for the last few weeks, just being

121
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 2: able to maintain that those dribbles, the mental toughness, that's

122
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 2: why it's a special a couple weeks. Also, as you said,

123
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:08,159
Speaker 2: he went and he got that MVP in game five,

124
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,719
Speaker 2: essentially because some people were going to give it to

125
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,479
Speaker 2: others after game four and we're going to say, oh, Gen,

126
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 2: it'll be so a minor winner, I think is all

127
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:19,600
Speaker 2: the media voters who don't have to look stupid and think,

128
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,479
Speaker 2: maybe I'll vote for somebody else. When Jalen Brunson was

129
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 2: the guy who got them to three to one, he

130
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 2: should have won it after four games, and he obviously

131
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,159
Speaker 2: stamped it made it clear after game five. Yeah.

132
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 1: In Game one, Brunson scored thirteen of his thirty points

133
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,080
Speaker 1: with five to nine shooting in the fourth quarter. That

134
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 1: was huge in that victory. In Game two, he knocked

135
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 1: down the game tying shot with under forty seconds to go,

136
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 1: and then the game winning free throw off of the

137
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,040
Speaker 1: Webbinia Minesota sort of brain fart there running into him.

138
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,560
Speaker 1: Game four, Brunson made six of eight shots from the

139
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 1: eight to twenty three mark of the third quarter to

140
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,720
Speaker 1: the one twenty two mark of the fourth quarter. That's

141
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 1: the span where they the Knicks cut a twenty three

142
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,680
Speaker 1: point deficit to a one point lead for them. So

143
00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:59,360
Speaker 1: he helped and spearheaded the largest comeback we've ever seen

144
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 1: in finals. And then in Game five, yeah, a masterpiece,

145
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:07,280
Speaker 1: forty five points high efficiency at that stamps the highest

146
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 1: final scoring average by a point guard in history, thirty

147
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 1: two point six points per game. I know it's a

148
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 1: little it's pretty remarkable. So yeah, Jalen Brunson is a massive,

149
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 1: massive winner here. And my favorite quote about him is

150
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 1: from Mike Brown himself. Brunson is one of the toughest

151
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 1: motherfuckers I've ever been around. I think that's what Wemby's

152
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 1: getting at, and I need to be that And why

153
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 1: can't he be that. He's only twenty two years old.

154
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 1: It's not like Brunson is a young guy here. He's experienced.

155
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I guess that's what Wemby was saying. I

156
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 2: don't know, Yeah, yeah, no, I know. But he when

157
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 2: he said in French, when he said basically see you guys,

158
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 2: never he said he said it in French, I think

159
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,360
Speaker 2: that's what he was saying. If I'm going to speculate,

160
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:50,560
Speaker 2: it's basically I'm going to be a whole new person

161
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 2: because I'm going to train myself differently this summer. I

162
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 2: assume it's not like I'm never playing basketball again or

163
00:07:57,400 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 2: I don't want to retire. That's what he meant or

164
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 2: or I hate all of you and so I'm gonna

165
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 2: be so happy to not see you for the next

166
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 2: three months, which you know, he went through whatever he

167
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 2: went through these last few weeks and had some ups

168
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 2: and downs with all the shoving and bushing and hitting

169
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 2: that he did it on the floor. But I think

170
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 2: that's what it is. I think I'm assuming right.

171
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 1: The one thing he promised we would find out about

172
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 1: was the whole concussion incident early in the playoffs.

173
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 3: Remember he said I'll tell you, I'll tell you after.

174
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 1: This is all over. Yeah, so maybe we'll hear from

175
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 1: him again.

176
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 3: Okay.

177
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 1: Jaleen Brunson, I'm glad we're starting there an obvious A

178
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 1: plus winner from the finals. Who else you got or what.

179
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 3: Else you got?

180
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:38,719
Speaker 2: Well? Leon Rose leading the next front office. A lots

181
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 2: of love for that guy. Everybody who started in this

182
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 2: NBA Finals he went and got he acquired. None of

183
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 2: those were draftees, as we talked about after Game five,

184
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 2: So lot's credit to him, and maybe subsequently, in a

185
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 2: small way, the other gms, the other guy's leading front offices,

186
00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 2: can say, hey, do you see what they did? Aalen

187
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 2: Brounson took that pay cut so they could boost their

188
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:07,200
Speaker 2: lineups around him. We got to do that, and so

189
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:09,600
Speaker 2: you know there's a miner winner, go.

190
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 3: Hire a bunch of dads to scout college teams of

191
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 3: good friends.

192
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,959
Speaker 2: Good friends, pay cuts. You know, we kind of skip over.

193
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,320
Speaker 2: We know that huge deal that he got initially to

194
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 2: come from Dallason, New York, but then when he signed

195
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:24,959
Speaker 2: the extension, also took a pay cut so they could

196
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,959
Speaker 2: sign everybody else and go get a cat and that

197
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:31,560
Speaker 2: kind of thing. So everybody in front office and Leon

198
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 2: Roses goes from agent to leading a front office to

199
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 2: acquiring everybody he had to acquire, and he's admired around

200
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:39,440
Speaker 2: the league.

201
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 1: It was pretty amazing, incredible roster building here. Obviously the

202
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:44,679
Speaker 1: signing of Jalen Brunson, and then like you said, getting

203
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 1: Cat from the Wolves, Og from the Raptors, Bridges from

204
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 1: the Nets, fuck them picks, and then Josh Harty even

205
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 1: from the Blazers in a you know, that was like

206
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 1: a four team deal where Josh hart found his way

207
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:56,680
Speaker 1: to New York and then all these other little pieces

208
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 1: as well.

209
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,439
Speaker 3: To Mitchell Robinson is the only guy he didn't acquire.

210
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, Mike and Mike Brown, which is huge because everybody

211
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 2: was concerned. Tom Thibodeau just took us to the conference finals.

212
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:10,319
Speaker 2: You're firing him. Well, he definitely played guys in fewer

213
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,480
Speaker 2: minutes this past season. No one among the Knicks was

214
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:17,960
Speaker 2: top ten in minutes played this past season. Benjaminutes went up,

215
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 2: brunts and dribbles went up. Excuse me, went up and

216
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:23,720
Speaker 2: went down a little bit, like he passed the ball

217
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 2: a little bit more, And obviously it increased in the playoffs. Obviously,

218
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:30,319
Speaker 2: his training staff, keeping all his guys healthy, the whole thing,

219
00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 2: the whole thing. Obviously.

220
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he Mike Brown, seems like the ultimate

221
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 1: players coach to me, like they love him, they like him.

222
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 1: He's like he's silly in a good way. It's tough

223
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:42,560
Speaker 1: to imagine. Thibodeau is an incredible coach, but it is

224
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,320
Speaker 1: tough to imagine this squad as this roster is currently

225
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,079
Speaker 1: constructed led by him doing some of the stuff we

226
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:49,080
Speaker 1: saw over the last couple of weeks.

227
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 3: It just is.

228
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,079
Speaker 1: And a part of it is, of course, does he

229
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:52,680
Speaker 1: sort of run guys into the ground a little too

230
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 1: much in the regular season because tips coaches every game

231
00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 1: like it is maybe a Game seven and loses sight

232
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,439
Speaker 1: sometimes with the big picture. But Mike Brown was an awesome,

233
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 1: awesome higher here. And you know, I guess thanks to

234
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 1: the Sacramento Kings two for firing him so he was

235
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 1: available to be hired. Thank you, Sacramento. So yeah, Leon

236
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 1: Rose and Mike Brown I had on my list here,

237
00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:15,360
Speaker 1: especially that part where they yeah, Rose didn't inherit a

238
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,840
Speaker 1: single starter on this team, and to do that, it's

239
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 1: pretty pretty quick work here too. And look Dolan for

240
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:22,440
Speaker 1: staying the hell out of the way, I guess too,

241
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:26,200
Speaker 1: which we wonder is that ever possible with this guy?

242
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 1: He can't help himself. Maybe the best thing that happened

243
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 1: was building the sphere. He just got all distracted by

244
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 1: the screen and the technology and all these all over

245
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 1: the world he's building. He just left the building to

246
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:40,199
Speaker 1: the pros here. In terms of basketballsome good winner.

247
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,720
Speaker 2: Yeah that was surprising. The one that I mentioned after

248
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 2: Game five that they are the first team in NBA

249
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:50,120
Speaker 2: history to have five guys run out there that they

250
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 2: didn't draft in a clinching game to start to start

251
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 2: a game. Surprising, Yeah, oh surprising. But kudos to Leon Rose.

252
00:11:58,320 --> 00:11:58,960
Speaker 3: Other winners.

253
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 4: Oh Geeobie the hand of Og on the tip, average

254
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,720
Speaker 4: twenty a game during the playoffs, shooting fifty six percent

255
00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 4: from the field forty nine from three, plus giving you

256
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 4: six rebounds, a steal and a half in a block

257
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 4: every single night. He actually missed time during this postseason, Like,

258
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:16,760
Speaker 4: that's pretty easy to forget that he was out with

259
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 4: a hamstring, which was a problem for OG during last

260
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:22,559
Speaker 4: playoffs or maybe a couple of playoffs ago. But we've

261
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 4: seen times where Og makes it to the playoffs and

262
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 4: isn't able to continue playing in the postseason. Instead, he

263
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:32,719
Speaker 4: raised his game, had a run at finals, MVP made

264
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 4: the biggest play in Knick's modern history. At the very least,

265
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:38,960
Speaker 4: it's just cool to see him like actually get a

266
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:42,640
Speaker 4: chance to show what he's allegedly been saying behind the

267
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:44,959
Speaker 4: scenes since Toronto. I want a bigger role. I can

268
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:46,679
Speaker 4: go out there and score a whole bunch of points.

269
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:48,120
Speaker 4: I can do it with the ball in my hand.

270
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:50,960
Speaker 4: And he's actually doing twenty per game during the playoffs.

271
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,600
Speaker 4: Had the huge game in Game four, plus the game

272
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:56,679
Speaker 4: winning tip, plus the defensive play to even set up

273
00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 4: the tip. This was like the guy that everyone is

274
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,600
Speaker 4: saying just he's a winning player. You know he's going

275
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:04,839
Speaker 4: to make something happen if he's ever able to stay healthy.

276
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 4: He finally was thanks to Leon Rose's training staff, and

277
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 4: he was one of the biggest difference makers.

278
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:13,720
Speaker 3: I think in the entire finals.

279
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 1: I'll go mckail Bridges as another winner here too, because

280
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 1: you know, there is the whole. He probably never has

281
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:21,840
Speaker 1: to hear about the five first round picks sort of

282
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 1: ever again because he's a champion and they're hanging the banner.

283
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:26,199
Speaker 1: So that's huge for him. You get that monkey off

284
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 1: your back. He also did have a good Game five.

285
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:31,240
Speaker 1: I know, like it was all Brunson, but he did

286
00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 1: chip in fourteen points, desperately needed points, so that helped

287
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,320
Speaker 1: get them across the line. His other big game in

288
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,560
Speaker 1: the finals was Game two, but they won. Obviously that

289
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:42,440
Speaker 1: was the wemb be throwing it away and all the

290
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 1: antics at the end, but he scored twenty points. B

291
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 1: kil Bridges did in that game, hit four threes, and

292
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:51,199
Speaker 1: I just think we keep saying early in the postseason, Wow,

293
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:53,800
Speaker 1: they were down to one and what happened Cat? They

294
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,679
Speaker 1: started going through catmore huge narrative, huge change for the

295
00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,200
Speaker 1: Knicks win. They started ripping off the win streak. But

296
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 1: around that same time too was mckail Bridges who was

297
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 1: getting benched, who once again everybody's going, oh my god,

298
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 1: we traded how many picks for this guy? He's not

299
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:09,000
Speaker 1: doing anything. After those couple games where he got very

300
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,679
Speaker 1: few minutes, he got unlocked too. I mean, he was

301
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 1: lights out in the Philadelphia series. Now they swept him

302
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,000
Speaker 1: and it was not really a problem at all. He

303
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 1: was incredible at continued and so he also avenges his

304
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 1: two to zero finals lead once upon a time with

305
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,520
Speaker 1: the Phoenix Sun. So I'll give Bridges a little love here.

306
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 1: I think, you know, at the end of the day,

307
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:28,440
Speaker 1: we'll have a lot of other guys remembered ahead of him.

308
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 1: But he played his part and I think does get

309
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:32,760
Speaker 1: forgotten a little bit in the turnaround in the postseason

310
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 1: for the Knicks because it was mainly cat where they

311
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 1: started running through that and the offense started humming. But

312
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 1: he actually started attacking, started to have some confidence in

313
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: his shot and played a part too.

314
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:43,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was dead for a while. It was a

315
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:47,480
Speaker 2: little Fred van Vlid esque from the Toronto Raptors days.

316
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:50,720
Speaker 2: He wasn't there and and Mike Brown had to bench

317
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 2: him he literally benched him in the Atlanta series, but

318
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,720
Speaker 2: he came back out and was, yeah, eight for nineteen

319
00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 2: from three in this series. Good numbers. Well, you know,

320
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,120
Speaker 2: just too games where he contributed offensively, but those points

321
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 2: were totally needed. And I think that's why Josh Hart

322
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:07,120
Speaker 2: I mentioned it for nineteen because Josh Hart surprisingly, even

323
00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 2: though they left him open, he did bang home some.

324
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 2: He was eight for twenty in this series, so surprising,

325
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:17,400
Speaker 2: you know. Yeah, he was literally couldn't score four games,

326
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 2: but then was able to chip in like me kill Bridges?

327
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:21,720
Speaker 3: Did any other winners? I have won more? I got

328
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 3: a to go ahead. Kat's a winner for sure.

329
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 4: His play tailed off after game two when he was

330
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:28,560
Speaker 4: getting finals MVP chatter, but the way he played through

331
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 4: two games allowed the Knicks to build a two zero

332
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:31,680
Speaker 4: lead on the road.

333
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 3: That was huge. Him out playing Wemby.

334
00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 2: For a couple of games, the MVP for two days,

335
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:36,800
Speaker 2: a rough game.

336
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:39,120
Speaker 3: Who cares? Who cares?

337
00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:41,600
Speaker 4: It's like like Bridges didn't. He had a couple of

338
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:43,920
Speaker 4: good games too. Hart had a couple of good games too.

339
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 4: Brunson and Og showed up for every single game, but

340
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,720
Speaker 4: they got enough good performances in enough games from the

341
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:51,720
Speaker 4: three other starters that have put him over the edge.

342
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 4: So those are my Knicks winners, the entire starting lineup

343
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 4: and their coach. Other Knicks side winners. I would throw

344
00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 4: in the Baja Men. Biggest moment for the Baha Men

345
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 4: in twenty five years easily.

346
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 2: Well, hold, this.

347
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:05,920
Speaker 1: Is so funny the timing there. Oh man, I'm drawing

348
00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:08,160
Speaker 1: a blank on this comedian's name. Have you seen the

349
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 1: clips going around the guy that's like it's like every

350
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 1: word he says, there's like a shotgun and the lights

351
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 1: go crazy and it's like really over the top. His

352
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:19,560
Speaker 1: whole bit is something with the Baja Men. And he tells,

353
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:21,080
Speaker 1: like in his show, like do you know how many

354
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 1: Baha Men there are?

355
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 4: And I have actually saw this clip and he brings

356
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 4: out the Baja He brings apparently there's like eighteen total,

357
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 4: but is there like anyway, it's like that's the whole bit.

358
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 1: But yeah, the guy comes out. So the Baja Men

359
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:34,080
Speaker 1: are having an incredible They're having a.

360
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:35,920
Speaker 4: Great run right now. Hopefully they get to go to

361
00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 4: the parade on Thursday. That'd be really cool to see

362
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:43,240
Speaker 4: all eighteen of them. Mariska Hargate Big Time Winner She's

363
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 4: the biggest winner of all the celeb fans.

364
00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 2: For me, she's a real one.

365
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:48,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, she's a real one. She was there during the

366
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:51,720
Speaker 4: bad times and she was there for Game four celebrating

367
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 4: with Taylor Swift. Now looks Taylor Swift. I think it's

368
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:56,240
Speaker 4: a minor winner here. I'm also giving a minor winner

369
00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:59,000
Speaker 4: to homemade T shirts. Those are very cool. He saw

370
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:02,480
Speaker 4: Knicks fans start making them for theirselves for Game five

371
00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 4: as well. But seeing Mariska Hargeta like immediately go hug

372
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 4: Jalen Brunson and Rick Brunson after this Game four comeback,

373
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,960
Speaker 4: she felt like their mom or I guess Rick Brunson's wife.

374
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:14,880
Speaker 3: So that was very very.

375
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:16,439
Speaker 4: Funny to me that she was like the first person

376
00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:19,240
Speaker 4: there to congratulate them. I would also say Wu Tang

377
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:23,480
Speaker 4: Clan Oh big winner down by twenty nine performed that

378
00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:26,640
Speaker 4: halftime of Game four and the Riz God the Year

379
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:28,200
Speaker 4: of rizk God continues.

380
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:30,240
Speaker 3: Right, explain the Risk God for those that don't know,

381
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:31,600
Speaker 3: who doesn't know the Risk guy?

382
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:36,480
Speaker 4: Come on, he was on what every episode of Survivor

383
00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 4: the past twenty six episodes of Survivor. He came on

384
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:40,959
Speaker 4: no dunks and he told us that the Knicks we're

385
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,359
Speaker 4: going to win the finals. He said, oh g nnob

386
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:45,520
Speaker 4: was going to be the finals Underpe didn't totally get

387
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 4: that right, but at least he picked the second best player.

388
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:50,320
Speaker 4: And I don't think he got the exact score right

389
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:51,639
Speaker 4: for game one, but he told us the nixt we're

390
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:53,399
Speaker 4: gonna win. Y yep, he was cooking.

391
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:54,200
Speaker 3: He was cooking.

392
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 2: Yeah. Back to Marissa, just for one sec. Shout out

393
00:17:57,560 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 2: to her because she's never on her phone and she is.

394
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:02,640
Speaker 2: She is a true a real one in that she's

395
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:05,679
Speaker 2: been there forever and she's just there because she loves

396
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,760
Speaker 2: the game. She's not as much as we give. You know,

397
00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:11,399
Speaker 2: we talked about the celebrities in New York. There's a

398
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,280
Speaker 2: lot of them, and so a lot of them who

399
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,440
Speaker 2: just showed up for a game or two are there.

400
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 2: She's been there forever and she doesn't.

401
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:22,480
Speaker 1: She's like got a one woman Broadway show, I guess.

402
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:25,160
Speaker 1: And that one game where they were all wearing the

403
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,960
Speaker 1: Game four with Taylor Swifton and the crew, she like

404
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 1: she sprinted from her show because of traffic was creazy.

405
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 1: She apparently ran as soon as her show ended to

406
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,680
Speaker 1: the arena, not to get there as quick as possible.

407
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:41,919
Speaker 1: She's she's a real one.

408
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:42,639
Speaker 3: She's dedicated.

409
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:49,680
Speaker 1: Absolutely, I have another huge winner, ABC, ESPN, the NBA.

410
00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:54,240
Speaker 1: You know, silver, This was a well watched finals. I

411
00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:57,439
Speaker 1: think we're waiting on Game five's ratings here as of

412
00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 1: Monday morning, but through the first four games, the twenty

413
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:04,680
Speaker 1: six Finals averaged nearly twenty million viewers on ABC, Slash ESPN.

414
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 3: It became the.

415
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:10,960
Speaker 1: Most watched since the Finals moved to ABC and ESPN

416
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,680
Speaker 1: to those networks in two thousand and two, so that's encouraging.

417
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,879
Speaker 1: There's apparently big growth among younger viewers too, from like

418
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 1: the twelve to seventeen and the eighteen to twenty four

419
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,920
Speaker 1: age groups. They skyrocketed. It was just a great matchup.

420
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:25,160
Speaker 1: You had the nation's largest media market in New York,

421
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 1: and then you had this generational gotta see this guy

422
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 1: play in Victor Wemanyama and the very young team on

423
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 1: the on the come up there and knocking off the

424
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,080
Speaker 1: champs and defending champs and okaysee, so they gotta be

425
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:39,439
Speaker 1: happy with this. These are pretty damn good numbers for

426
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:41,760
Speaker 1: the NBA Finals. Absolutely, and again we'll wait to find

427
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:42,720
Speaker 1: out how Game five went.

428
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, where are the numbers. I don't know, it's been days.

429
00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:48,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, they don't work on the weekend. Nielsen takes off

430
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 1: the weekend. Any other winners are we on a talking Yeah?

431
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:53,439
Speaker 3: I got Spurs winners.

432
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:56,200
Speaker 4: Dylan Harper clearly a winner for the Spurs, biggest winner

433
00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,359
Speaker 4: for the Spurs. I would say eighteen points, six rebounds,

434
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 4: three assis per game, shot forty nine from the field,

435
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 4: only twenty eight from three. I don't remember him making

436
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:05,919
Speaker 4: any catch and shoot threes. But if he had the

437
00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:08,360
Speaker 4: ball in his hands, he could shoot threes. Only six

438
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:12,359
Speaker 4: total turnovers for Dylan Harper, and everybody leaves this series

439
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 4: saying why didn't this guy play more?

440
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:14,120
Speaker 3: Yeah?

441
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:15,879
Speaker 4: Why was he coming off the bench? There's also the

442
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,880
Speaker 4: weird interview with Devin Vessel where he's like, Harper wasn't

443
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:22,200
Speaker 4: happy with his role or his minutes. So that was

444
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 4: kind of surprising to hear. Uh, maybe just talking about

445
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:27,359
Speaker 4: early in the season with who knows what's going on?

446
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,399
Speaker 2: I know because I listened to it too. He mentions

447
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:31,960
Speaker 2: the g League, he is going down to the Giliaue himself.

448
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 2: Any kind of just throws in that he was a

449
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,879
Speaker 2: little upset, but yeah, the end of game five was

450
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:39,000
Speaker 2: tough to watch and that Dearren Fox was missing and

451
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 2: we'll get to losers, so I'm sure dear.

452
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:42,840
Speaker 4: Until we want yeah, well yeah, yeah, so we can.

453
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:44,800
Speaker 4: We can say a little Harper for them as well.

454
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,159
Speaker 4: But I think he's definitely, definitely a winner. He came

455
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 4: out looking great from this to the point where everyone's

456
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:51,399
Speaker 4: like it. The more we get from Dylan Harper, the

457
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:52,960
Speaker 4: better it would have been for the Spurs. I think

458
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 4: Devin Vassell and Jillian Champenni also get to be winners.

459
00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 4: Forty seven percent from three for Vessel, forty one percent

460
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:02,720
Speaker 4: from three for Champennie. This was their first taste of

461
00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 4: the playoffs and to me, those two guys proved that

462
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,600
Speaker 4: they can be rotation members on a championship team. I

463
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,359
Speaker 4: do think the Spurs, in the grand scheme of things,

464
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:14,960
Speaker 4: could upgrade, specifically the Champenney spot. Get somebody with a

465
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,200
Speaker 4: little bit more size, because I thought as the playoffs

466
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:20,120
Speaker 4: went on, you saw the limitations with Champennie, like he's

467
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 4: a good fourth best perimeter defender, but if he's out

468
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:24,680
Speaker 4: there on the court, he's gonna get hunted, and he

469
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:28,840
Speaker 4: was offering zero resistance against Brunson. It's great to say

470
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:31,119
Speaker 4: everybody could use an ogn Andobe type, but the Spurs

471
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:34,480
Speaker 4: could definitely like get somebody bigger and bulkier. But I

472
00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:36,359
Speaker 4: still was impressed with Champagnie and to me, like he

473
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,439
Speaker 4: would be at the very least than a seven man

474
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:40,960
Speaker 4: rotation for a finals game because he was proven it

475
00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:42,639
Speaker 4: out there, like he was up and down with his

476
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 4: three point shooting. He'd make five and a half and

477
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,240
Speaker 4: then zero, but still if he's making five in a game, yeah,

478
00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 4: that's great. So those two guys are winners for me.

479
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:52,120
Speaker 1: I mean, like, I mean, we'll get into Fox for sure,

480
00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:54,280
Speaker 1: Like not a great series for him, and you know,

481
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:56,240
Speaker 1: maybe because of the high ankle sprain and all that,

482
00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,480
Speaker 1: and he has excuses, but the Spurs did lead the

483
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:02,720
Speaker 1: NBA Finals for seventy two percent of the damn Finals,

484
00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:06,639
Speaker 1: so they were the better team for nearly three quarters

485
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:09,480
Speaker 1: of it. Just obviously couldn't close the door in a

486
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:11,800
Speaker 1: lot of cases. And maybe that's just the inexperience and

487
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:14,240
Speaker 1: the Wemby factor of like he's got to go take

488
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,119
Speaker 1: his lumps and stuff like that. But yeah, a lot

489
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:19,479
Speaker 1: of those guys did play really well, absolutely and ahead

490
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:21,919
Speaker 1: of schedule, because like nobody had them really going all

491
00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:23,119
Speaker 1: the way to the finals to begin with.

492
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:25,720
Speaker 2: And they had never been there. And I know we

493
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 2: always think about the experience factor and whether that was enough.

494
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 2: And you mentioned Champagne. He was so good in first

495
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:33,000
Speaker 2: halves and then he would drop off in the second

496
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 2: halves and is that just not playing enough? Maybe, but

497
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:38,959
Speaker 2: they'd need height, that is for sure. And we'll get

498
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 2: to more Dylan Harper because you know, I'm just going

499
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:43,960
Speaker 2: back to my Dylan Harper notes after Game five because

500
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:47,080
Speaker 2: it was just awesome how he was able to take

501
00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:48,639
Speaker 2: advantage of who was in front of him. He was

502
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:50,879
Speaker 2: giving it to Deuce who was too tiny, but he

503
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 2: was also catching off Wemby doubles. But he's also driving

504
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 2: after everybody, So yeah, he was. He made his name

505
00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,960
Speaker 2: known the most outside of one Vinyama for this purse. Yeah.

506
00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:03,040
Speaker 1: Uh okay, well let's do let's do losers. Do we

507
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:06,600
Speaker 1: start with the Aaron Fox as the most obvious biggest loser.

508
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:07,240
Speaker 3: Of the NBA Finals?

509
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:12,200
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, he was rough and rough to close out

510
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 2: Game five where those shots were where they're falling, they

511
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,119
Speaker 2: were so short as some of them and they're open

512
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 2: and so he just wasn't himself. You mentioned the high

513
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,480
Speaker 2: ankle sprain easily could have been a problem.

514
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:27,240
Speaker 1: I mean, he struggled for a couple of rounds of

515
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:29,680
Speaker 1: the playoffs here, It wasn't like he just sort of

516
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,880
Speaker 1: completely fell off. In the finals. He had moments where

517
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:35,959
Speaker 1: it looked like maybe Fox was back. Yeah, I mean

518
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,639
Speaker 1: game seven right against Okay, See a was a good

519
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:39,160
Speaker 1: year in Fox.

520
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:39,440
Speaker 3: Game.

521
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:41,600
Speaker 2: But you combine that with the guy who's behind you

522
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,359
Speaker 2: playing so awesome, that's the thing, here's the question.

523
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:46,680
Speaker 1: And you combine it with the fact that your extension

524
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:48,440
Speaker 1: is about to kick in and you're going to be

525
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,080
Speaker 1: paid you know, four years, two hundred and thirty million,

526
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:51,639
Speaker 1: let's call it.

527
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:52,160
Speaker 3: Yeah.

528
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:55,439
Speaker 1: Now you know there are people today going trade them.

529
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:57,880
Speaker 1: Get him out of here. He's gonna hold you back.

530
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:00,879
Speaker 1: Got to go to Harper Moore. I do not think

531
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:03,879
Speaker 1: the Spurs are going to overreact to this, to to

532
00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 1: him having a bad finals. I just don't think that's

533
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:09,159
Speaker 1: the way that organization is run. Do you have an

534
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 1: opinion on what they should do with yourn Fox.

535
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,840
Speaker 4: Here, Well, they should trade him, but every other team

536
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,239
Speaker 4: watched the finals as well, so that's the trading him

537
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:18,480
Speaker 4: at the lowest. Yeah, you're trading him as his extension

538
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:20,600
Speaker 4: kicks and he gets more expensive and his values at

539
00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:24,159
Speaker 4: the lowest not the ideal time to be trading him in.

540
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:26,439
Speaker 3: But it's just not going to make sense to have Fox,

541
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 3: Harper and Castle.

542
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think. I think that if they do keep him,

543
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:35,680
Speaker 2: you close games with one of Harper or Fox, because

544
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 2: it's just Harper is just thrown on the back burner

545
00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:42,600
Speaker 2: while Fox tries to make plays and Harper's not doing it.

546
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:46,400
Speaker 2: And so if you know they have a taller guy

547
00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 2: playing alongside, whether it's Harper and Sefan Castle, you know,

548
00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 2: plus your your vessel and a big guy, then it's

549
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:59,400
Speaker 2: it's it's easier to do defensively, and it just makes

550
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,920
Speaker 2: more sense. I mean, it is weird to say Fox

551
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,040
Speaker 2: won't close games at times, but I think that's what

552
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:07,200
Speaker 2: it has to be like, going through a guy a

553
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:09,879
Speaker 2: little bit more often that that's that seemed to be

554
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,000
Speaker 2: the end of the game and how it didn't work out.

555
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:15,160
Speaker 2: Now it's a lot on on Harper's shoulders to say, hey,

556
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:18,960
Speaker 2: you're now the guy playing thirty minutes a game, closing games,

557
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 2: but it looks like the.

558
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:24,000
Speaker 3: Guy that should be playing yeah, and minutes a game to.

559
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,400
Speaker 2: Take away too much from each other on the floor.

560
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:28,880
Speaker 1: So and you know, it's one thing that Fox went

561
00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:31,600
Speaker 1: over four in the close out game and struggled down

562
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:34,240
Speaker 1: the stretch, like okay, he missed shots that socks, don't

563
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 1: get me wrong, But it really is that boneheaded play

564
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:40,320
Speaker 1: and decision at the end of game four where he

565
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:42,720
Speaker 1: should not have taken a layup with Og chasing him down.

566
00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:44,840
Speaker 1: He should have dribbled out and kept the ball and

567
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,280
Speaker 1: got fouled and shoot the free throws and they have

568
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,680
Speaker 1: a much better chance than to survive the crazy comeback

569
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:54,680
Speaker 1: and go back obviously to too to San Antonio for

570
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:56,720
Speaker 1: a best of three with home court advantage. Like that's

571
00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 1: that's sort of inexcusable from the one guy who is

572
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:02,480
Speaker 1: your vet. I. No, he hasn't had a lot of

573
00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:05,920
Speaker 1: postseason you know runs either, But you've been around the block,

574
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:08,200
Speaker 1: and I'm sure he regrets it. I know he's thinking

575
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 1: I beat him to it. I'm the fastest guy in

576
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:11,879
Speaker 1: the league. I'm getting there. I'll just take the two points.

577
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:12,680
Speaker 1: What are you talking about?

578
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 2: But Oj wasn't that far. No, he was right there.

579
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:20,520
Speaker 2: And you mentioned Kat as a winner and you're just

580
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:23,320
Speaker 2: taking me through all the plays Game four, where the

581
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:26,879
Speaker 2: Spurse could have won this thing. Kat's fingertip stop of

582
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 2: the castle gameplay dunk that would have been an allue

583
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:33,320
Speaker 2: dunk for sure to end it. He just looked like

584
00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:35,760
Speaker 2: he was right on pat. So I just want to

585
00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 2: make sure I haven't already forgotten that, because one day

586
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:38,360
Speaker 2: I probably will.

587
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,040
Speaker 1: But Kat's ben Stiller will make you never forget.

588
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:42,360
Speaker 2: Oh, I can't wait to watch.

589
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 3: That other losers Wenby go On.

590
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:48,919
Speaker 4: I think he's gonna feel like more of a loser

591
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 4: in the moment right now on Monday after winning the championship,

592
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:55,080
Speaker 4: when we look back at his first finals appearance, if

593
00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:57,240
Speaker 4: he makes more, but at twenty two years old, he

594
00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 4: went for twenty six a game, eleven rebounds to assist

595
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,040
Speaker 4: the steel in three point six blocks. Like that's a

596
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 4: pretty decent performance for your first time in the NBA

597
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:07,399
Speaker 4: five on Finals. But he wasn't the best player the

598
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:09,359
Speaker 4: majority of the time. He was the best player in

599
00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 4: a game once they needed at least four to be

600
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:15,879
Speaker 4: able to win the title. He wore down over games.

601
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:18,720
Speaker 4: He was exposed as not having a go to move

602
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,240
Speaker 4: or an in between game in these fourth quarters, and

603
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:23,480
Speaker 4: he had two massive failures the butt pass and the

604
00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 4: miss free throws in game four. He can also throw in.

605
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:28,879
Speaker 4: He missed nine free throws during the entirety of the finals.

606
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 4: That's not very many. Five of them were in fourth quarters.

607
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:34,760
Speaker 4: It did feel a little quaky at times for Victor Webbanyama.

608
00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:36,639
Speaker 4: So look, I will I think this guy could go

609
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:38,359
Speaker 4: down in history as the greatest of all time. This

610
00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:40,679
Speaker 4: was not the greatest of all time performance in the finals.

611
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:44,119
Speaker 4: This was a slightly scared twenty two year old and

612
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:45,440
Speaker 4: I didn't think that that was going to be the

613
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:49,920
Speaker 4: case for him. But a minor loser for Victor Webbanyama.

614
00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:53,040
Speaker 2: Mm hmm. Yeah. If he was paired with somebody running

615
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:57,680
Speaker 2: the show ball handling, maybe it's different and know just

616
00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:01,359
Speaker 2: who's doing it in a better way. Because I mean,

617
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:03,520
Speaker 2: we talked about Harper, we talk about Fox, I mean

618
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,920
Speaker 2: ster fog Castle literally has to also develop a go

619
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:09,159
Speaker 2: to move because he was lacking that. If you look

620
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:11,320
Speaker 2: at the numbers, there's a lot of games not good

621
00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:14,520
Speaker 2: or he wasn't there. So it's not just about getting felled,

622
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 2: it's about being able to find that balance. So there's that,

623
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:21,159
Speaker 2: But why Wemby was sitting at times, may have been like,

624
00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:23,320
Speaker 2: like you were talking about why he sat early in

625
00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:25,440
Speaker 2: the second quarter of Game five, maybe because he isn't

626
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,280
Speaker 2: number one having played all these games before, but number

627
00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:31,160
Speaker 2: two just not durable enough. And he did talk about

628
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:34,040
Speaker 2: that after Game five. He said, I've got to be

629
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:37,960
Speaker 2: more durable, essentially, and that's part of it, I guess,

630
00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 2: I mean, and maybe that's why free throws are missed

631
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter. I mean, that's probably just nerves

632
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,760
Speaker 2: more likely than actual not being able to shoot a

633
00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 2: free throw, but fourth quarters are bad.

634
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:49,200
Speaker 1: He's also going to need to learn how to control

635
00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:51,680
Speaker 1: his temper a little bit here too. I mean, these

636
00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 1: teams and these players, they know the best way to

637
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:56,800
Speaker 1: try and rattle him is to be physical with him,

638
00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:59,320
Speaker 1: get under his skin. And he showed a couple times

639
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:03,200
Speaker 1: at least that he's especially the nasried elbow, which was

640
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 1: blatantly like get the hell off me and clock them,

641
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:08,040
Speaker 1: and a couple other incidentss too, And I don't see

642
00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:10,800
Speaker 1: how it's gonna stop, because he's a freak and he's amazing,

643
00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:13,160
Speaker 1: and that's what teams are just gonna They're gonna implement

644
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 1: such things and he has to obviously handle that better,

645
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 1: and I think he will, like to me, this is

646
00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 1: the best thing for the league to happen, Wemby and

647
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 1: the Spurs not winning this year, and I said that

648
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:23,640
Speaker 1: when we headed into this final. It's like, I think

649
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:26,719
Speaker 1: it's way more exciting for him to be stopped here

650
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 1: and not just anointed the goat of all the like,

651
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:30,959
Speaker 1: oh my god, he's got one and he's gonna win

652
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:31,400
Speaker 1: ten of these.

653
00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:33,600
Speaker 3: It's way better. He's got to like figure it out

654
00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 3: and he's talking about it and as a team and

655
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:36,520
Speaker 3: they're super young.

656
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 2: I like it.

657
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:40,320
Speaker 3: I like this, like, wow, now this is now, this

658
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:41,480
Speaker 3: is really scary to me.

659
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:44,480
Speaker 1: If he really you will take this to heart and

660
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:45,920
Speaker 1: how he has to get better and as the team

661
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:47,880
Speaker 1: has to get better. So I think it's great for

662
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 1: the league that he didn't get it right now. That's

663
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 1: my personal opinion.

664
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, we probably won't see him this summer all that much,

665
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:57,800
Speaker 2: but I'm sure somebody will and should be making him

666
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 2: just videos of him meditating, even if it's not they're

667
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:02,840
Speaker 2: not real, they'll be ai. But I mean, what he

668
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:04,960
Speaker 2: basically said was I gotta keep a fresh mind and

669
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:07,880
Speaker 2: maintain control of the game at all times, which basically

670
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:11,120
Speaker 2: means stop hitting guys. Uh and yes, just lock in

671
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:13,400
Speaker 2: type of things, so he will be doing what he's

672
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 2: got to do.

673
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:15,880
Speaker 4: I mean, you can the nas read elbow, that's the problem.

674
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:19,520
Speaker 4: Flagrant wise, you can't throw one like that. You two points, Yep.

675
00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:21,600
Speaker 4: The accidentally hitting guys in the face, which is gonna

676
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:23,719
Speaker 4: happen for Wemby. He's seven foot five. He's gonna hit

677
00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:25,920
Speaker 4: guys in the face. It's just gonna happen. He's gonna

678
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,239
Speaker 4: pick up the little ones a lot. You can't get

679
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 4: the twos.

680
00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 2: The twos are not allowed. And he and he can

681
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 2: meditate from that as well, not just boost the flag

682
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:36,320
Speaker 2: flagrant point.

683
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 3: That's a good point.

684
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:39,160
Speaker 1: He can meditate all he wants and that's fine, and

685
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 1: he will go do you but and you said it, trait.

686
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,560
Speaker 1: He desperately needs a go to move he that has

687
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:49,120
Speaker 1: to be like one of the main things he works on.

688
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:52,120
Speaker 1: Whatever it is, like, is it a skyhook?

689
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:52,960
Speaker 4: Is it you know?

690
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 1: Is it just more of a comfortable jumper which you

691
00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:56,800
Speaker 1: can get in any time. It's got He has to

692
00:30:56,880 --> 00:31:01,640
Speaker 1: get something because that's was he's obviously missing from his

693
00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:04,120
Speaker 1: repertoire here. Where when you get into these stern and

694
00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 1: fourth quarters and we just need a bucket. First off,

695
00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:08,560
Speaker 1: you're not a point guard, so we got to get

696
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,240
Speaker 1: you the ball first, and where are we getting.

697
00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:11,200
Speaker 5: It to you?

698
00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:13,200
Speaker 3: And where are you comfortable? So like that's what he

699
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:13,760
Speaker 3: has to add.

700
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:15,800
Speaker 1: I mean the guy should add this guy hook of

701
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:17,560
Speaker 1: all the guys who would be awesome.

702
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:19,640
Speaker 3: But yeah, we haven't seen that. You say we're not

703
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:20,840
Speaker 3: going to see him. I think we are.

704
00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:23,640
Speaker 4: We saw every single thing Wenby did last summer, and

705
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 4: then we got an article all about what he did

706
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:28,920
Speaker 4: last summer heading into the playoffs. He does like to

707
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,880
Speaker 4: have his training uh broadcast to the league. He's a

708
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:36,320
Speaker 4: little stage managed. There's absolutely no Also tough to disappear

709
00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:40,680
Speaker 4: with your seven this guy, but like, go train with

710
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,719
Speaker 4: a team, Go train with Dirk Novisky, go train honestly

711
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:46,480
Speaker 4: with LaMarcus Aldridge. That guy's a spur. He loves a

712
00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:48,320
Speaker 4: mid range jumper. That would be the perfect guy for

713
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:50,440
Speaker 4: me wannd me to lose from, to learn from.

714
00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:59,240
Speaker 5: I think, don't do that here? Can we can you

715
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 5: get me on your books learn from?

716
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 3: Yeah?

717
00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:04,479
Speaker 1: Or Dunkin of course too. I'm sure he's talked too.

718
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:06,960
Speaker 2: But yeah, yeah, we shall see. It'll be different I

719
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,800
Speaker 2: think than last year where he was on camera at

720
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:12,880
Speaker 2: all times. You mean he's said, he said, he's he

721
00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:16,520
Speaker 2: basically saying I'm done, I'm not coming back. Come on,

722
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:18,680
Speaker 2: your French Canadian learn a word.

723
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:21,680
Speaker 3: So what do you mean he's away.

724
00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 1: He's not going to be away.

725
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:24,440
Speaker 2: What do you mean he's not going to be away

726
00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:26,240
Speaker 2: just because there's I.

727
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:28,400
Speaker 1: Mean there's no summer o limp. There's no basketball this

728
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 1: summer for like internationals. So yeah, that part will help

729
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 1: us not be top of mind.

730
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:32,920
Speaker 3: Yeah.

731
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's going to do all those sort of the

732
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:37,840
Speaker 2: tanks where he's just all by himself. I'm not just

733
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:39,480
Speaker 2: I'm not saying he's going to bed to He obviously

734
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:41,080
Speaker 2: has to do things where he has to become a

735
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:43,400
Speaker 2: better basketball player. But I don't think it's just going

736
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:45,640
Speaker 2: to be filmed as much. That's all okay. And he

737
00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:47,520
Speaker 2: just definitely doesn't want to talk to the media like

738
00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:51,200
Speaker 2: like like Timmy Duncan. I mean he's kind of yeah

739
00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 2: enough I think at this point, but he's always good

740
00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:56,200
Speaker 2: with the media either way. Whatever, He's going to be

741
00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:57,440
Speaker 2: a better basketball player. Come.

742
00:32:57,800 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 3: Yes, he's twenty years old.

743
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:01,520
Speaker 1: He's not even to his prime yet and he's already

744
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:04,280
Speaker 1: the best defensive player in the league, maybe of all

745
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:06,880
Speaker 1: time on that end. But a lot of growth still

746
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:09,080
Speaker 1: on the other end. And you know, I think we're

747
00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:11,520
Speaker 1: all expecting, oh, Spurs will be back. Why wouldn't they

748
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:14,440
Speaker 1: be back, Wemby Castle Harper, look at the ages of

749
00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:17,239
Speaker 1: these guys. Yes, but we've done that before with teams too.

750
00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 1: We definitely did that with the the Young Thunder once

751
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:20,320
Speaker 1: upon a time.

752
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:21,960
Speaker 3: We developed Thunder last year.

753
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:25,200
Speaker 1: Well yeah, yeah too. Also, the Thunder probably would have

754
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 1: beat the Spurs if they were healthy, and then you know,

755
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:29,920
Speaker 1: then it would have been like that would have been

756
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,239
Speaker 1: the correct amount of growth for the Spurs in your

757
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:33,120
Speaker 1: one in the postseason.

758
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:35,400
Speaker 3: But they jumped it. They beat the They beat the Thunder.

759
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:36,720
Speaker 3: Injuries or not.

760
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:39,920
Speaker 4: Any other losers, yeah, a lot of them. Kelvin Johnson,

761
00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:43,400
Speaker 4: big time loser. Looks like an eighty two game player,

762
00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:47,200
Speaker 4: not a sixteen game player. In the Draymond Parlance regular season,

763
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:50,360
Speaker 4: Keldon Johnson thirteen a game on fifty one percent shooting.

764
00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:53,840
Speaker 4: In the playoffs, he averaged seven per game on forty

765
00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:57,920
Speaker 4: one percent shooting. Had twenty two total points in the finals.

766
00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:00,800
Speaker 1: Keldon Johnson is going to be a difficult Hey, he

767
00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:03,320
Speaker 1: won six Man of the Year trivia question like twenty

768
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:03,840
Speaker 1: years from now.

769
00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:05,080
Speaker 3: I think we're gonna struggle with that one.

770
00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:08,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, in part because of like, yeah, he really was

771
00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:09,800
Speaker 1: a disappearing act in the finals.

772
00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:12,640
Speaker 3: In the postseason for chunks of it.

773
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:16,360
Speaker 4: He didn't have How many even double digit games did

774
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,120
Speaker 4: he have in the playoffs? Very few, I would have

775
00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:18,720
Speaker 4: to imagine.

776
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:20,759
Speaker 3: I can't really. There was never really like a big

777
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 3: Calden Johnson game.

778
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:24,520
Speaker 1: The thing you're gonna remember most is like any like

779
00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:28,560
Speaker 1: pregame him, you know, yelling at Wemby and their their

780
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:30,480
Speaker 1: little hype up as they push each other and yell

781
00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:31,480
Speaker 1: at each other and stuff like that.

782
00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:34,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, there was that twenty point game against Minnesota.

783
00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:37,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, he destroyed Minnesota in the blowout for sure. Twenty one.

784
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:39,919
Speaker 4: He had seven double digit games out at twenty three.

785
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:43,120
Speaker 4: He just he just didn't look like a playoff guy.

786
00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:46,680
Speaker 4: That's all other losers. Trump next lost one game in

787
00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:48,600
Speaker 4: two months, and it was the one where the ultimate

788
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:49,640
Speaker 4: Vibe runner showed up.

789
00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:51,760
Speaker 3: It's incredible. That's actually hilarious.

790
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:57,439
Speaker 4: Tough break for that guy, but at least the UFC

791
00:34:57,640 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 4: card went off without a single hitch. Oh wait a second,

792
00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:04,000
Speaker 4: the biggest star retired on the stool and they were

793
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:04,799
Speaker 4: delayed for an hour.

794
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,680
Speaker 3: Nonetheless, he takes an L. SGA.

795
00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:10,279
Speaker 4: I think maybe gets a small L here. Everybody's better

796
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:12,600
Speaker 4: than Jalen Brnst until it comes time to be better

797
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:15,680
Speaker 4: than Jalen Brunson. SJA was not better than Jalen Brunson

798
00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:21,319
Speaker 4: against the Spurs, you know, I mean, Brunson was much

799
00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:24,600
Speaker 4: more effective against the very same defense. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

800
00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:26,760
Speaker 4: And it's because he's got a three pointer. Brunson fourteen

801
00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:29,239
Speaker 4: for thirty six and five games. SGA went eight for

802
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:31,960
Speaker 4: twenty eight in seven games. We said that we talked

803
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:34,640
Speaker 4: about him, and that's probably Actually, if I'm thinking about

804
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:37,040
Speaker 4: like the signature shot for Brunson from the finals, it's

805
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:39,040
Speaker 4: probably in game four when he hits that step back

806
00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:40,000
Speaker 4: over Wemby.

807
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:40,799
Speaker 2: That was huge.

808
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:41,359
Speaker 3: That was huge.

809
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:43,560
Speaker 4: Didn't even I think that didn't even tie the score

810
00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:44,840
Speaker 4: or get him with him one. I think it was

811
00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:46,719
Speaker 4: a four point game, got him within one, so that

812
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,520
Speaker 4: was big time. So yeah, I mean, those are guys

813
00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:52,320
Speaker 4: that go about scoring in similar ways. They like to

814
00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:55,800
Speaker 4: play in the mid range. Crafty trying to draw free throws,

815
00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:58,400
Speaker 4: and Brunson was better at it than Sga was in

816
00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:02,320
Speaker 4: a similar scenario. And a couple other quick losers the

817
00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:04,960
Speaker 4: Brooklyn Nets. How is anybody ever going to be a

818
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:07,279
Speaker 4: fan of this team? I saw Fred Katz writing up

819
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:09,880
Speaker 4: how the Knicks are the only team that runs unopposed

820
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:13,680
Speaker 4: in New York City. There is literally another basketball team

821
00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:16,799
Speaker 4: that plays in New York City. They had fifty years

822
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:20,040
Speaker 4: to convert anybody to be Nets fans, couldn't do it,

823
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:22,200
Speaker 4: And now everybody's going to be Knicks fans.

824
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:26,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, the whole a whole other generation exact course. Yeah, exactly,

825
00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:28,759
Speaker 3: great because all the other sports, like there.

826
00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:31,919
Speaker 1: Are Mets fans to Yankees fans, yeah yeah, and even

827
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:35,160
Speaker 1: Jets fans Jets, the Giants fans, Islanders and Rangers.

828
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:37,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's crazy.

829
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,520
Speaker 4: Mets are a loser. The guy who picked every single

830
00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:44,080
Speaker 4: series right except for the finals. Yeah, that sucks for

831
00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:44,440
Speaker 4: that guy.

832
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:44,839
Speaker 2: Yeah.

833
00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:47,239
Speaker 1: Did we ever find out if he would have won

834
00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:48,040
Speaker 1: a million dollars?

835
00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:50,880
Speaker 3: It was on the website. Oh but I don't know.

836
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:53,040
Speaker 3: If I don't know, I don't know what the deal

837
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:53,440
Speaker 3: is with that.

838
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:54,200
Speaker 2: Damn.

839
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:56,680
Speaker 3: You should have taken the Knicks tough and Jimmy Butler

840
00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 3: Wiggans got a title, Cat got a title.

841
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:03,000
Speaker 4: Sure, they were not the number one guy, and Jimmy

842
00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:05,400
Speaker 4: took his team to the finals twice, but they're the

843
00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:07,000
Speaker 4: only team to go to the finals twice in the

844
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:08,719
Speaker 4: past nine years and not win it.

845
00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:10,840
Speaker 3: So Jimmy Butler, you gotta be a little bit.

846
00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:14,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, And like Wiggins did play very, very well in

847
00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:17,840
Speaker 1: the Warriors championship run. Obviously Curry was the man, but

848
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:22,120
Speaker 1: Wiggins was really good. And then Cat we went through

849
00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:25,239
Speaker 1: obviously an incredible postseason. Things turned around when they started

850
00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:27,440
Speaker 1: going through him. So yeah, they were They were instrumental.

851
00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:29,719
Speaker 1: There was that funny photo I saw it. It's it's

852
00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:32,440
Speaker 1: it's young a younger Wiggins, a younger Cat and a

853
00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:35,200
Speaker 1: younger Jimmy Butler. I remember that has the whole story.

854
00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:35,719
Speaker 2: Yep.

855
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:37,800
Speaker 1: He took the scrubs and beat them in a practice.

856
00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:40,560
Speaker 1: Get these bums out of here. Can't win with these guys.

857
00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:42,920
Speaker 1: Well they ended up winning. Yeah, that's a good one.

858
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:44,080
Speaker 1: You got any other ones?

859
00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:45,480
Speaker 2: No, all right?

860
00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:49,160

Speaker 4: a goal, even though he is the best striker on

876
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:36,920
Speaker 4: the Spanish national team him Apparently he's coming off the

877
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:38,280
Speaker 4: bench even though he's fully healthy.

878
00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:42,120

00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:21,960
Speaker 3: There's still quite expensive a free ticket, I know. Yeah,

892
00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:24,920
Speaker 3: like even the worst game here.

893
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:28,560
Speaker 1: In Atlanta's there the tickets. There's only five hundred dollars right.

894
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:29,640
Speaker 3: Now, that's Upper Bowl.

895
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:33,800
Speaker 1: It's fine, okay whatever, but yeah, it's still still pretty penny.

896
00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:38,080
Speaker 3: Wait second, Saudi Arabia used Pakistan or something like that.

897
00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:40,759
Speaker 1: It's like it's the cheap game like that. Yeah, ye,

898
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:43,959
Speaker 1: I had my eye on it. I got World Cup fever.

899
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:44,440
Speaker 4: It's here.

900
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:48,239
Speaker 3: I'm like, should I go? The answer is yes, we

901
00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:49,840
Speaker 3: should go, But yeah, I'm not going to go for

902
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:50,399
Speaker 3: that much.

903
00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:51,000
Speaker 2: Yeah I don't.

904
00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:52,960
Speaker 3: I don't care that much. I'd rather go to a

905
00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:55,120
Speaker 3: Team USA watch party, which I will be doing there.

906
00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:55,879
Speaker 2: You go for sure.

907
00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:57,520
Speaker 3: What do you think about these hydration breaks?

908
00:39:57,880 --> 00:39:59,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just another commercial, great stuff.

909
00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:02,640
Speaker 3: Literally, just an ad break. Yeah, it's ridiculous. They're playing

910
00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:03,480
Speaker 3: quarters now.

911
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:07,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, they do, they do, and they go away too commercial.

912
00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:09,880
Speaker 1: That's my favorite part if you wanted to sell me on, like, oh,

913
00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:12,319
Speaker 1: it's a hydration break brought to you by Power Raid.

914
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:14,160
Speaker 1: But we stay here with the team and we taw

915
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:16,319
Speaker 1: you know, we see the field and all that. That's

916
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:18,879
Speaker 1: one thing they just like, yeah, they just cut away,

917
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:20,280
Speaker 1: get a couple of commercials.

918
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:20,520
Speaker 3: In, come on back.

919
00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:24,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I remember. And when I advocated for basketball

920
00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:27,200
Speaker 2: is the shortest of the major sports, you know, outside

921
00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:30,280
Speaker 2: of soccer, people would say, hey, hey, what about soccer.

922
00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:33,160
Speaker 2: We played forty five minutes straight. Now they don't.

923
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:37,080
Speaker 1: I'm so sad, so so sad. Have you seen the

924
00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:39,800
Speaker 1: I'm sure you have. I do like this addition to

925
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:43,440
Speaker 1: the the referee cam. Oh yeah, this thing looks amazing.

926
00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:45,879
Speaker 4: These guys are on it because I'm like, they get

927
00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:48,960
Speaker 4: a great shot of every goal. I know, these are

928
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:49,879
Speaker 4: the best rest in the world.

929
00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:53,680
Speaker 2: I think it's pretty cool to watch. The quality could

930
00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:54,080
Speaker 2: be better.

931
00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:57,480
Speaker 3: I thought, it's not bad. Guys heads on the guy's head.

932
00:40:57,600 --> 00:40:59,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's not. You know, it's not HD.

933
00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:03,839
Speaker 1: But it's cool, pretty amazing, It's awesome. It'll get better.

934
00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:05,120
Speaker 1: You're right, it will get better.

935
00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:07,560
Speaker 4: How do you like the technology of these for off sides?

936
00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:09,680
Speaker 4: I know you're a little worried about the NBA introducing

937
00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:11,920
Speaker 4: a lot of technology for their calls and the AI,

938
00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:14,759
Speaker 4: but like apparently they get sensors in the ball, so

939
00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:17,120
Speaker 4: it's pretty guys are off sides.

940
00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:18,160
Speaker 3: That's amazing.

941
00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:19,640
Speaker 4: I love it that little thing they put up with,

942
00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:23,160
Speaker 4: like the cube and is it where the guy's shoulder

943
00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:23,759
Speaker 4: is or whatever.

944
00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:24,200
Speaker 3: I like that.

945
00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:24,839
Speaker 2: That's neat.

946
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:28,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, we love soccer. Soccer is great on berg.

947
00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:31,200
Speaker 1: All right, let's get into this. According to the ringers

948
00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:34,160
Speaker 1: Bill Simmons, the Celtics reportedly made an offer to the

949
00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:39,239
Speaker 1: Bucks for Giannis last week. Boston has dove in to

950
00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:43,239
Speaker 1: use Bill Simmons term here on the Greek Freak sweepstakes.

951
00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:46,120
Speaker 1: This was a change in tune for Simmons, though, who

952
00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:49,960
Speaker 1: had previously reported that he heard Boston wasn't involved in

953
00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:53,760
Speaker 1: trading free honest. Simmons said he doesn't know what changed

954
00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:56,920
Speaker 1: the Celtics' minds, but that they are now involved in

955
00:41:57,080 --> 00:41:59,879
Speaker 1: trying to deal for the two time MVP. I will

956
00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:02,840
Speaker 1: He didn't know what that deal looks like, but everybody

957
00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:06,440
Speaker 1: task assumes if they are in the mix. Here the

958
00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:08,560
Speaker 1: Celtics for you, honest. Then Jillen Brown's got to be

959
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,680
Speaker 1: going either just back to Milwaukee or rerouted to a

960
00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:14,960
Speaker 1: third team, and then more picks and players going potentially

961
00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:15,919
Speaker 1: to the Milwaukee Bucks.

962
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:17,920
Speaker 3: So this is the new exciting part here.

963
00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:20,680
Speaker 1: I guess a lot of Yannis to Miami talk, which

964
00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:23,319
Speaker 1: we've gone through, but maybe the Celtics are making a play.

965
00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:25,880
Speaker 1: Do you buy any of this or is this like,

966
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:30,560
Speaker 1: is this maybe Milwaukee just trying to like drum up

967
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:33,000
Speaker 1: more from the Miami Heat these type of rumors.

968
00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:37,320
Speaker 2: I'm starting to buy the three way deal with Boston

969
00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:41,480
Speaker 2: a little bit more rather than Milwaukee just taking back

970
00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:47,319
Speaker 2: Jalen Brown, because then it starts to resemble a team

971
00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:50,640
Speaker 2: looking forward to the future, getting young players from a

972
00:42:50,719 --> 00:42:55,320
Speaker 2: team like Atlanta. Potentially moving Jalen Brown to Atlanta. That

973
00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:59,520
Speaker 2: sort of makes more sense, along with some picks or

974
00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:02,439
Speaker 2: even the Pelicans young players and picks coming back. Ira

975
00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:08,839
Speaker 2: Wnderman reporting that as two possibilities. Yeah, But the other

976
00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:10,920
Speaker 2: side is does Nis want to go to Boston. I mean,

977
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:14,600
Speaker 2: it's a far bigger market than Milwaukee, obviously, but it

978
00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:18,279
Speaker 2: ain't Miami. And we could say Yanis, we could say

979
00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:20,360
Speaker 2: Yanis is a loser of the NBA Finals because of

980
00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:23,799
Speaker 2: the Knicks win, they don't need Yannis anymore. So that's

981
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:25,759
Speaker 2: a part of it. But it's not just the size

982
00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:28,200
Speaker 2: of the market. They want a championship two years ago

983
00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:30,040
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty four. Does he want to be part

984
00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:31,880
Speaker 2: of that team? Does he want to pull a Durant

985
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:35,000
Speaker 2: esque type of thing. Maybe maybe not, Maybe he's totally

986
00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:36,879
Speaker 2: fine with that. But I think this is a three

987
00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:38,440
Speaker 2: team deal. I think that, you know, we put a

988
00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:42,359
Speaker 2: deal together for strictly for Jalen Brown, Hugo Gonzalez. It's

989
00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:45,399
Speaker 2: Ugo Gonzales and a twenty twenty seven first round pick

990
00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:47,799
Speaker 2: on May fifteen to put that together, maybe a second

991
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:50,239
Speaker 2: round pick and maybe a second first round pick. But

992
00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:54,880
Speaker 2: is that what the Milwaukee Bucks want to be? I

993
00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:57,040
Speaker 2: think that's a fair question. Maybe they want to get

994
00:43:57,040 --> 00:44:00,560
Speaker 2: a third team involved to get more younger players, because

995
00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:03,560
Speaker 2: Jilen Brown, as good as he is, he's not super

996
00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:07,000
Speaker 2: young at twenty nine right now. You know you're going

997
00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:10,560
Speaker 2: to be thirty soon, and so then what is the

998
00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:13,600
Speaker 2: horizon for the Milwaukee Bucks. How good are they going

999
00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:16,600
Speaker 2: to be? I think that instead of getting also picks

1000
00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:19,520
Speaker 2: from the Celtics, which ain't going to be very good, picks,

1001
00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:22,520
Speaker 2: you turn around and give it Jalen Brown to like

1002
00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:26,320
Speaker 2: a Hawks or Pelicans. You get younger, better picks. So

1003
00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:28,920
Speaker 2: that's where I see. I see some resemblance there of

1004
00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:30,239
Speaker 2: a deal that could happen.

1005
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:33,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree that if Boston gets involved in the

1006
00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:36,040
Speaker 4: Jannis deal, Jalen Brown will go to a third team.

1007
00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:38,400
Speaker 3: It doesn't make sense for him to go to Milwaukee.

1008
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:40,440
Speaker 4: And all the reporting seems to make it out that

1009
00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:43,520
Speaker 4: the Bucks want picks more so than they want players.

1010
00:44:43,560 --> 00:44:45,800
Speaker 4: But my reaction was the same as you skeets. It

1011
00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:47,759
Speaker 4: was like, I know Boston was out of this. Yeah,

1012
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:50,080
Speaker 4: that's what Simmons said, That's what Windhorse said, That's what

1013
00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:52,560
Speaker 4: Zach Lowe said. But then we get the news that

1014
00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:54,880
Speaker 4: the Heat are in the lead here and you look

1015
00:44:54,920 --> 00:44:57,879
Speaker 4: at their package and you're like, it ain't that great

1016
00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:01,880
Speaker 4: Tyler hero coo where and then some sort of combo

1017
00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:05,440
Speaker 4: of Hawkes, Larsen and Yakachonas plus their picks like that

1018
00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:09,680
Speaker 4: could be beat by quite a few teams outside of Miami,

1019
00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:12,160
Speaker 4: like the Celtics obviously could throw in Jalen Brown, the

1020
00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:14,600
Speaker 4: Magic could offer Paulo Bancaro if they really want to

1021
00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:17,480
Speaker 4: get in the mix the Timberwolves could offer Jaden McDaniels.

1022
00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:19,680
Speaker 4: I don't know where you put him compared to Tyler Hero.

1023
00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:23,560
Speaker 4: McDaniels is more of a finishing piece to me. Perhaps Nonetheless,

1024
00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:26,680
Speaker 4: there are teams that could beat the Heat. All. The reporting, though,

1025
00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:28,960
Speaker 4: does say Jannis wants to go to Boston because they

1026
00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:31,120
Speaker 4: can pull off the trade and still have a good

1027
00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:34,400
Speaker 4: team loft, So that's interesting to me. But it feels

1028
00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:37,560
Speaker 4: like a leverage play from the Bucks here, driving up

1029
00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:40,080
Speaker 4: the offers because they're like, we could trade for Tyler

1030
00:45:40,160 --> 00:45:42,920
Speaker 4: Hero anytime we want. They could have traded for Tyler

1031
00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:45,000
Speaker 4: Hero last summer. Yeah, they could have traded for Tyler

1032
00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:48,680
Speaker 4: Hero at the deadline. They obviously don't want Tyler Hero

1033
00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:51,200
Speaker 4: that much. That's like a fallback deal to me, is

1034
00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:55,120
Speaker 4: what Miami is offering. So I do buy the Boston

1035
00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:58,719
Speaker 4: is maybe kicking around the Jalen Brown of it all,

1036
00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:01,560
Speaker 4: And I don't necessarily know if that's what Milwaukee wants,

1037
00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:04,279
Speaker 4: but they want players of Jalen Brown's caliber to be

1038
00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:06,319
Speaker 4: bned so that they can get a better player back

1039
00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:09,600
Speaker 4: or be able to ship that guy out for more picks.

1040
00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:12,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with you that it just feels like

1041
00:46:12,680 --> 00:46:15,759
Speaker 1: this Miami Heat deal has been here for a while

1042
00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:18,880
Speaker 1: and the Bucks are like, what this is all they're offering.

1043
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:20,879
Speaker 1: It's really sort of all they can offer for being

1044
00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:23,840
Speaker 1: tripful too. Yeah, but they're just hoping and it's the

1045
00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:26,080
Speaker 1: last ditch sort of effort here as we get closer

1046
00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:28,800
Speaker 1: to the draft, which does seem to be one of

1047
00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:31,200
Speaker 1: their like I don't know deadlines that they have in

1048
00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:33,080
Speaker 1: mind here because they want to make said picks if

1049
00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:37,719
Speaker 1: they're getting twenty twenty six draft picks of like anything better,

1050
00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:41,800
Speaker 1: anything better? Anybody is Celtics. You don't want y honest, Boston,

1051
00:46:41,880 --> 00:46:44,279
Speaker 1: you don't want Yannis? Are you crazy? Look at those

1052
00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:46,520
Speaker 1: Jail and Brown twitch streams. Man, he's already wants out

1053
00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:48,439
Speaker 1: of there. He wants his own team. Like they're like, yeah,

1054
00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:51,480
Speaker 1: trying to drum this up here. Maybe a third team involved.

1055
00:46:51,520 --> 00:46:53,520
Speaker 1: You guys went through them. I guess the Blazers are

1056
00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:56,520
Speaker 1: one of these potential third teams too, where Jaylen Brown

1057
00:46:56,600 --> 00:46:59,320
Speaker 1: is rerouted and you know that would allow maybe Milwaukee

1058
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:02,040
Speaker 1: to get their own picks back and stuff like that

1059
00:47:02,200 --> 00:47:04,960
Speaker 1: and a prospect or two. But that's what we're doing here.

1060
00:47:05,120 --> 00:47:07,680
Speaker 1: I think ultimately, still this ends with him going to Miami.

1061
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:08,480
Speaker 3: I just don't.

1062
00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:11,359
Speaker 1: I don't know, because like, how many of these teams

1063
00:47:11,400 --> 00:47:13,560
Speaker 1: are lining up for your honest too, with his with

1064
00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:18,600
Speaker 1: his age and his contract and his unfortunate injury history,

1065
00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:21,160
Speaker 1: which we've gone over a million times. We don't need

1066
00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:22,879
Speaker 1: to beat a dead horse. But the guy is gonna

1067
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:24,440
Speaker 1: be eligible here for a two hundred and seventy five

1068
00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:27,480
Speaker 1: million dollars contract extension and unfortunately has just not been

1069
00:47:27,719 --> 00:47:30,239
Speaker 1: healthy for the last couple of years. It's a hell

1070
00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:33,719
Speaker 1: of a gamble, Like, like, what do you like, Let's

1071
00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:35,759
Speaker 1: just look at it from the Celtics side of things.

1072
00:47:36,280 --> 00:47:39,040
Speaker 1: Jalen Brown out obviously a young player or two and

1073
00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:41,440
Speaker 1: then draft capital are you doing it?

1074
00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:42,160
Speaker 3: No brainer?

1075
00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:46,200
Speaker 1: The upgrade is Giannis over jailing? Or like, how much

1076
00:47:46,239 --> 00:47:47,200
Speaker 1: of an upgrade.

1077
00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:47,719
Speaker 2: Is that to you?

1078
00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:49,960
Speaker 1: Of where they are in their current careers?

1079
00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:51,440
Speaker 4: Is it?

1080
00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:57,239
Speaker 2: It's a fair question. It's scary with Janni's health, it's

1081
00:47:57,400 --> 00:48:03,040
Speaker 2: it's legitimately scary. Yeah, I think that's an internal question

1082
00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:05,040
Speaker 2: for them. Did Jalen Brown not want to be here?

1083
00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:07,879
Speaker 2: It's sure, even though he went on twitch and blah

1084
00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:10,600
Speaker 2: blah blah. You know, this was my favorite season, even

1085
00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:13,880
Speaker 2: though we literally got bounced in the first round. I

1086
00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:15,799
Speaker 2: think that's an internal question for them. If he still

1087
00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:18,000
Speaker 2: wants to be there, you probably hang on to what

1088
00:48:18,080 --> 00:48:22,359
Speaker 2: you got because this may have just been too late

1089
00:48:22,440 --> 00:48:24,640
Speaker 2: for the Milwaukee Bucks to get a good package back

1090
00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:28,120
Speaker 2: for Gastankola. They waited too long another year with a

1091
00:48:28,200 --> 00:48:31,480
Speaker 2: calf injury, banking on a year before that, with a

1092
00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:33,719
Speaker 2: calf injury, banking on a year before that where he

1093
00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:35,640
Speaker 2: was out in the playoffs. So there's just too much

1094
00:48:35,680 --> 00:48:38,880
Speaker 2: of that happening. So it's a fair question. Yannis are

1095
00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:41,600
Speaker 2: Jalen Brown. That's a fair question. If Joan Brown wants

1096
00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:44,360
Speaker 2: to be there, I think you stick with it, and

1097
00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:45,480
Speaker 2: you stick with the Jalen.

1098
00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:47,760
Speaker 4: I would trade him. Ghannest is clearly the better player

1099
00:48:48,160 --> 00:48:50,959
Speaker 4: than Jalen Brown. Is just the injuries that are the risk.

1100
00:48:51,080 --> 00:48:52,600
Speaker 4: But you know what else is a risk is bringing

1101
00:48:52,680 --> 00:48:54,960
Speaker 4: back Tatum and Brown and losing the same way that

1102
00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:57,120
Speaker 4: they have lost the past couple of years. And that's

1103
00:48:57,160 --> 00:49:01,040
Speaker 4: what Brad Stevens said in his end of season press

1104
00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:02,839
Speaker 4: conference is like, we can't keep doing this. We need

1105
00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:05,560
Speaker 4: to put pressure on the rim. That's literally what Yannis does.

1106
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:09,560
Speaker 4: He is the rim for the most part. I don't

1107
00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:12,640
Speaker 4: know if it raises the Celtics to the Knicks level,

1108
00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:15,640
Speaker 4: but I think throwing Yannis onto a Celtics team makes

1109
00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:19,520
Speaker 4: it an interesting matchup for New York and gives them

1110
00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:23,680
Speaker 4: the Celtics a lot more on the inside, which they

1111
00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:27,399
Speaker 4: haven't really had since peak Porzingi's health.

1112
00:49:28,040 --> 00:49:28,239
Speaker 3: You know.

1113
00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:30,680
Speaker 4: I think you look at the way that their center

1114
00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:34,640
Speaker 4: rotation fell apart in the playoffs, with Cada and Garza

1115
00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:37,200
Speaker 4: and vuch not even being able to get on the court.

1116
00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:40,120
Speaker 4: Jannis is a pretty good center upgrade there, even if

1117
00:49:40,120 --> 00:49:44,640
Speaker 4: that's only his second position on the Celtics. So there's

1118
00:49:44,680 --> 00:49:47,239
Speaker 4: definitely worries about his age and the way he's able

1119
00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:49,920
Speaker 4: to stay healthy. But I think the ceiling is higher

1120
00:49:50,920 --> 00:49:53,920
Speaker 4: with this version of the Celtics, not comparing him to

1121
00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:56,520
Speaker 4: twenty twenty four when they were loaded with an all

1122
00:49:56,560 --> 00:49:58,040
Speaker 4: star basically every position. Yeah.

1123
00:49:58,719 --> 00:50:02,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, question with Giannis is do I need to sign

1124
00:50:02,360 --> 00:50:07,359
Speaker 2: a max extension as part of this trade, because then

1125
00:50:07,400 --> 00:50:10,920
Speaker 2: you're literally adding we're talking five years of Jannis, right,

1126
00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:14,040
Speaker 2: it's the one plus the four, A lot of money

1127
00:50:14,239 --> 00:50:16,279
Speaker 2: for a guy who hasn't been able to sustain it.

1128
00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:18,160
Speaker 2: So that's a fair question.

1129
00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:18,560
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1130
00:50:18,600 --> 00:50:20,600
Speaker 1: For those that don't know, Jannis is going to make

1131
00:50:20,680 --> 00:50:23,319
Speaker 1: fifty eight point five million dollars next season and has

1132
00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:26,000
Speaker 1: a sixty two point eight million dollar player option for

1133
00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:29,000
Speaker 1: twenty seven to twenty eight. But he's eligible this offseason

1134
00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:32,640
Speaker 1: for this two hundred and seventy five million dollar extension.

1135
00:50:32,680 --> 00:50:36,040
Speaker 2: It's six months after he's traded, right, I think so, yes,

1136
00:50:36,320 --> 00:50:40,200
Speaker 2: So he could sign it with Milwaukee in October, but

1137
00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:43,560
Speaker 2: he has to wait six months after being traded to

1138
00:50:43,640 --> 00:50:46,680
Speaker 2: sign it with that team. So I guess there's the injury.

1139
00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:49,080
Speaker 2: If he gets injured, then you don't have to sign

1140
00:50:49,080 --> 00:50:51,080
Speaker 2: it to the extension in a bad way.

1141
00:50:51,120 --> 00:50:54,319
Speaker 1: But do you agree if Jannis is like on board

1142
00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:57,480
Speaker 1: with I guess either of these Miami or Boston, and

1143
00:50:57,600 --> 00:50:59,440
Speaker 1: we sort of have an idea of what the return

1144
00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:01,520
Speaker 1: would be and the players going out and what would

1145
00:51:01,520 --> 00:51:04,680
Speaker 1: be left on said rosters. Do you think, yeah, of

1146
00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:06,120
Speaker 1: course it would be a no brainer to go to

1147
00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:08,000
Speaker 1: Boston if you're honest, for your chances to win that

1148
00:51:08,080 --> 00:51:10,800
Speaker 1: second title compared to what would be left in Miami.

1149
00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:13,600
Speaker 2: Oh, no question, okay, yeaheah, yeah, you're playing with a

1150
00:51:13,640 --> 00:51:17,560
Speaker 2: side Tatum. The only thing that Miami is not trading

1151
00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:19,279
Speaker 2: is Baman a Baio and that's who you'd be playing

1152
00:51:19,320 --> 00:51:21,440
Speaker 2: with the honest? Are they a top three or four

1153
00:51:21,480 --> 00:51:28,279
Speaker 2: team the East? Yeah? Yeah, but still with it, that's

1154
00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:30,880
Speaker 2: a fair question with Indiana coming up with the Knicks,

1155
00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:36,040
Speaker 2: uh three four, that's where they would be. Yeah, it's

1156
00:51:36,480 --> 00:51:38,560
Speaker 2: not incredible, it's not incredible.

1157
00:51:38,760 --> 00:51:41,080
Speaker 1: And you agree with that obviously that for his best

1158
00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:44,279
Speaker 1: chances in the immediate future to win another title, Yeah, I.

1159
00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:47,920
Speaker 4: Think yes, I mean the he haven't won a playoff

1160
00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:50,640
Speaker 4: series in a while, always in the play in tournament.

1161
00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:52,080
Speaker 4: I think if they add Giannis and they have to

1162
00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:55,000
Speaker 4: trade away all these support pieces around them, obviously they

1163
00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:57,600
Speaker 4: would be able to get good veterans who are, you know,

1164
00:51:57,680 --> 00:51:59,680
Speaker 4: towards the end of their career being in Miami getting

1165
00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:02,120
Speaker 4: to play with Bam and Yannis, so they'll be able

1166
00:52:02,160 --> 00:52:05,400
Speaker 4: to fill out their team. But they seem like like

1167
00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:08,160
Speaker 4: Tasa is saying, maybe maybe a third seed, I don't know,

1168
00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:09,919
Speaker 4: like the Knicks would be ahead of them. I would

1169
00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:14,000
Speaker 4: take the current Celtics, like if the if they stick

1170
00:52:14,040 --> 00:52:15,840
Speaker 4: with Brown and Tatum, like that team's going to be

1171
00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:18,560
Speaker 4: good when Jason Tatum's healthy for a whole season. Detroit

1172
00:52:18,680 --> 00:52:21,600
Speaker 4: just won sixty games. The Cabs are going to bring everybody,

1173
00:52:21,719 --> 00:52:23,120
Speaker 4: well who knows what the Cats they're going to do,

1174
00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:24,920
Speaker 4: but they're at least a good regular season.

1175
00:52:25,120 --> 00:52:26,320
Speaker 1: Magic could be healthy.

1176
00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:31,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly, So I don't necessarily think that just Yannis

1177
00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:33,920
Speaker 4: plus Bam plus whatever random vets they get.

1178
00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:38,759
Speaker 3: Probably is like a home court first round team. Well,

1179
00:52:38,880 --> 00:52:41,320
Speaker 3: let's hear from everybody out there, how tired of you

1180
00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:43,560
Speaker 3: are the honest trade rumors? Does this happen? Does this

1181
00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:47,960
Speaker 3: happen this week or before? Obviously the draft night is on?

1182
00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:49,439
Speaker 3: Is it on Tuesday? Next week?

1183
00:52:49,600 --> 00:52:49,800
Speaker 4: It is?

1184
00:52:50,480 --> 00:52:51,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, we plan on doing.

1185
00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:54,160
Speaker 1: A live watch party here from the Classic Factory for

1186
00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:56,120
Speaker 1: the actual draft, So come kick it with us on

1187
00:52:56,239 --> 00:52:56,799
Speaker 1: Tuesday night.

1188
00:52:57,120 --> 00:52:58,200
Speaker 3: But yeah, does it go down.

1189
00:52:58,080 --> 00:53:01,160
Speaker 1: Then, you know, it does feel like it's coming soon.

1190
00:53:01,239 --> 00:53:04,120
Speaker 1: If we believe Jimmy Haslam here and this idea that

1191
00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:07,719
Speaker 1: they would want said picks and select players with said

1192
00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:09,200
Speaker 1: picks from the twenty six draft to be a lot

1193
00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:11,880
Speaker 1: of future picks, I get that. But yeah, yeah, and

1194
00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:14,759
Speaker 1: we know they're doing it. They're trading them. Even task

1195
00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:16,680
Speaker 1: Melis believes this is being.

1196
00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:18,359
Speaker 2: Struck around the year. He just said I'm sticking around

1197
00:53:18,400 --> 00:53:21,640
Speaker 2: this year. It happened. Now he's gone. Now, it is

1198
00:53:21,719 --> 00:53:25,759
Speaker 2: interesting to think about what the packages were four months

1199
00:53:25,800 --> 00:53:29,840
Speaker 2: ago or a year ago, when all those Knicks rumors

1200
00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:33,200
Speaker 2: were hot, right right, and Leon Rose did not pulled

1201
00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:36,080
Speaker 2: the trigger in New York. So you know he's going

1202
00:53:36,160 --> 00:53:38,319
Speaker 2: to be excited when the trade happens. He'd be like, yeah,

1203
00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:39,400
Speaker 2: I didn't do that.

1204
00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:42,960
Speaker 1: Good move, obviously, Jesus, that'd be the ballsiest move of

1205
00:53:42,960 --> 00:53:44,920
Speaker 1: all time. Win the championship and go, you know what,

1206
00:53:45,040 --> 00:53:50,480
Speaker 1: let's trade for you, honest. Now, jeez, we were really flirting.

1207
00:53:50,680 --> 00:53:53,680
Speaker 5: Uh, you know, they've won this thing off friendship and family,

1208
00:53:53,719 --> 00:53:56,399
Speaker 5: and he's like, fuck your family, fuck your friends, get

1209
00:53:56,440 --> 00:53:56,759
Speaker 5: out of here.

1210
00:53:56,800 --> 00:54:00,400
Speaker 3: We're going to get you, honest man. It'd be ballsy ball.

1211
00:54:00,920 --> 00:54:02,399
Speaker 3: He's got the title. Nobody a question.

1212
00:54:02,520 --> 00:54:05,440
Speaker 1: I know it was right, He's got the bits, he's

1213
00:54:05,440 --> 00:54:08,400
Speaker 1: got the bites touch. Okay, let's call it there. A
