It was the twenty fourth 30 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 3: triple double of the season thunder one despite missus Chett, Hartenstein, 31 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:48,920 Speaker 3: j dub and Caruso. 32 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 4: Damn, that's crazy, just a dope win for Yo, because 33 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 4: I mean they were all out k Golden State. I 34 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 4: thought like some of them will come back for Denver, right, 35 00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 4: but now that's again there's no excuses for Denver, Like, 36 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 4: I mean, you got some people out, but not as 37 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 4: many as Okay, see y'all have Jamal out? 38 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 6: And who is it? 39 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 3: Ja played Jamal played Gordon Ken Johnson played Peyton. 40 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,119 Speaker 5: Watson on Washington and he's a big key. 41 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 1: He's a big he's a big piece. But obviously chat 42 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:19,080 Speaker 1: Hartstein j. 43 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:25,959 Speaker 2: Then that's only Aaron Gordon's like second game, he looked 44 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:27,679 Speaker 2: like he was getting his rhythm for sure. 45 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 6: Twenty three. 46 00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:32,639 Speaker 2: I've lost Tim Hardwin, You've lost faith in Denver. Yeah, 47 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 2: it's tremendous as Joker has been. He's putting up astronomical numbers, 48 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 2: but they just can't guard nobody. 49 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: Yeah he said it. 50 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,079 Speaker 2: Didn't the Knicks go in there and beat them. They 51 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 2: one got hurt, so they were It's still points just yeah, 52 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 2: and I Cam Johnson has been underwhelming for me from 53 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 2: what I expected from him to come into Denver uniform 54 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 2: replace Michael Porter Junior, who's had an All star type 55 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 2: of year. 56 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 5: So now that trade looks like WHOA. 57 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 2: We really should have just stayed patient with Michael Porter, 58 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 2: even though he's stunk it up in the playoffs a 59 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 2: year ago. But Cam just seems like he's lost out there, 60 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 2: like he's not guarding at a high level, he's not 61 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 2: making shots at a high level. And then a lot 62 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 2: of times and then there's times where you just don't 63 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 2: even know he's out there. When you thought he would 64 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 2: be the key to help them over the hump as 65 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 2: a defensive stopper, as a guy that can make shots 66 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 2: and be consistent, he hasn't been the guy they want 67 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,839 Speaker 2: him to. Now maybe that can change in the playoffs, 68 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 2: But based on what we thought of that trade, because 69 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 2: we thought that was a great trade, Yeah, you know 70 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 2: at the time, but now when you look at it, 71 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 2: it's like, I don't know. 72 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 6: I'm with you. 73 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 4: Defensively, I'm not gonna put it all one guy, Cam. 74 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 4: I think it's gonna take some time for them, even 75 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 4: though it's been a year, Like I think it's going 76 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 4: to take some time for people to adapt, to adjust 77 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 4: to certain playing styles. He's had some good games, he's 78 00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 4: been out with injuries, had some bad games. And defensively, yes, 79 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 4: all their guards could be better, you know what I'm saying, 80 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 4: like even their bigs. But yeah, I mean I thought 81 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 4: this is like they're on pace now to being the 82 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 4: play you know what I'm saying, Like this is a 83 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 4: team that we thought was like one of the top 84 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 4: juggernauts or even expectations coming into the season. Is them 85 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 4: in Okay? See now it's Spurs. Okay, see Denver, even 86 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 4: with healthy they don't look. 87 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 6: They look very beatable. 88 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 4: And you know what I'm saying, Like, I mean, obviously 89 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 4: playoffs comes down to experience and x's and o's. I 90 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 4: know this is a Adaman's like first full year taken over, 91 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 4: so maybe that's an adjustment, but I don't see them 92 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 4: going deep in the play maybe second. 93 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,600 Speaker 2: Well, they're not completely cooked, but because I will tell 94 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 2: you this, Yeah, what's mind bottle is how with that 95 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:51,840 Speaker 2: type of home court advantage are they losing so much 96 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 2: at home because on the road they wanted the top 97 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 2: three or four teams, which that translates in the playoffs. 98 00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 5: But you gotta protect your home. 99 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I mean, I'm not gonna say they're cooked 100 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 3: if I think if they're generally healthy, they're gonna be 101 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 3: a hard team to beat in the playoffs. I just 102 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 3: think again, with Jokic, since he's come back from the injury, 103 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 3: he's just not moving the same and. 104 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 1: It's really affecting his play on defense. 105 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:21,840 Speaker 3: And I think he's just been a target in a 106 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,239 Speaker 3: way that he just was not before the injury happened. 107 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,600 Speaker 3: It's not that he can't score, because his scoring game 108 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:30,239 Speaker 3: is not based on moving his feet. 109 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: On defense, though, there's no way to get. 110 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 3: Around having a movie your feet, you know, having a 111 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:40,679 Speaker 3: move latterally having to be in the right spots continuously. 112 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 1: So to me, that's the thing, And you wonder how 113 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 1: much of it he is. 114 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 3: Saving to just be like, yo, let's just get to April, 115 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 3: get to the regular season. 116 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: I mean, get to the postseason and I'll be fine, 117 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 1: So we'll see. 118 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 3: I think Cam Johnson, I think that's been disappointing to 119 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 3: me is just he's just not aggressive enough. 120 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: He's just not looking for his shot MPJ. 121 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 4: Like it's like he's not MPJ aggressive what I'm saying, 122 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 4: And for him to be that in that system is 123 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 4: not gonna make them better. 124 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, because like it's not your job to distribute for them. Yeah, 125 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,840 Speaker 3: they got Jokic obviously, he's one of these leading the 126 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 3: league and goddamn assists like they have Jamal Murray. 127 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:18,720 Speaker 1: Like it's not on you to be like a ball mover, 128 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: you got to be aggressive. 129 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:22,279 Speaker 4: He's never been that type of player. Like it's crazy 130 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 4: to see Tim Hardaway is more aggressive than him off 131 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 4: the bench. 132 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, Tim Hardy has been the perfect. 133 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:28,839 Speaker 4: He needs to be, Like they need to to like 134 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,359 Speaker 4: he needs to be more like Tim and like be 135 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 4: that aggressiveness with looking for a shot, Like he's always 136 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 4: been a system guy. I shoot it when I'm open, 137 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 4: not like looking. 138 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 6: For my shot. And I mean that's maybe an adjustment 139 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 6: he might need to do. 140 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 2: But what would you do though, Like when the way 141 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 2: the way Peyton Watson play, Yeah, they'll have an injuries. 142 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,159 Speaker 2: When when he comes back, do you insert him into 143 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 2: the lineup. 144 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,280 Speaker 3: You might, it's definitely an option you might have to 145 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 3: to replace Cam Johnson. 146 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 5: But then does that diminish your firepower off the bench. 147 00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 3: So, because even with all the injuries, missed a bunch 148 00:06:59,920 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 3: of time, Like if you look up Denver's offensive efficient, 149 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 3: they're like one to two in the NBA, the No 150 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 3: one So like we can say, like their offense doesn't 151 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 3: look as potent, but it's just as. 152 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 1: Good as anybody. 153 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 4: The defense is the problem to me, the defense falling 154 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 4: off a cliff just. 155 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 1: Being in the bottom six of the NBA. 156 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 3: Like, come on, bro, you can't even one of the 157 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 3: six worst defensive teams when there's twelve teams tanking. 158 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 1: You can't play worse defense than tankers. 159 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 6: Yeah. 160 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 4: No, But to your point, even if they did insert 161 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 4: payon Watson and startline, I think your bench is still 162 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 4: good because Cam is still a good player over the bench. 163 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 4: I don't think you're losing much. Again, I think it's 164 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 4: like you said, it's not the offense it's the problem. 165 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 5: Yeah. 166 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, Like I said, I'm not doomsday, Like I don't 167 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 3: think anybody rolls into a series with Denver. 168 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 6: And it's like, I just think, yeah. 169 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 2: But at the same time, throughout the course of the season, 170 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 2: we put. 171 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 1: Them as a championship type of team and they don't 172 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 1: look like that. 173 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, but we all know this. Throughout the course of 174 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 2: a season, you developed great habits. If you're a championship team, 175 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 2: you don't just turn it want to become a defensive team. 176 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 2: And a playoffs start, like after about seventy games, you 177 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 2: are like me, you are who you are? 178 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, y'all can't. 179 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 5: It's not no turn it on. 180 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 3: So at the same time, I will say this, we 181 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 3: do have to circle back to last year. 182 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: They fired their coach with like a week to go. 183 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 3: It was disastrous to the point where they fired Mike 184 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 3: Polone and then they had a night showing in the playoffs. 185 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 1: Right, So you know that's what I'm saying. 186 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 3: I don't want to hit the panic button, but you 187 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 3: can't come on concerned about. 188 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 6: How far do you how far do you have them 189 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 6: going this year? 190 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 1: Like I still think they'll win a first round series? 191 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:38,719 Speaker 6: Yeah, so in the second round? Is that good? 192 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 1: Second round? 193 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 6: Is that not a disappointing season for that type of group? 194 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 3: I mean, in the second round they're gonna end up playing. 195 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 3: I'm gonna assume they end up playing either. 196 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 2: Okay, see about the second round, you gotta deal with 197 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,199 Speaker 2: the first round, six or fifth seed. 198 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: They played. 199 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,199 Speaker 6: The bro they gotta play Spurs. Okay, see then yeah. 200 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 3: They got it. They they need to stay out of 201 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 3: the play. They need to stay above I mean, somehow. 202 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 5: They need to find a way to get home court 203 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:06,439 Speaker 5: advantage in the. 204 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:07,200 Speaker 6: First round some way. 205 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 4: But they're also they're they're not only but two or 206 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 4: three games behind like third or fourth place, right like 207 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 4: three or four games. But they're also like they're like 208 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 4: one or two games in the play like from this 209 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 4: playing so like. 210 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 1: It's definitely troublesome. Again, I don't know. I think they 211 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 1: stay out of that seventh seed. They find a way 212 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 1: to do that. 213 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 3: I'm not wor like if they end up in a 214 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 3: matchup against Timberwolves, Lakers, or Rockets, I don't think that's. 215 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:32,960 Speaker 1: The end of the world. 216 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 4: That's just it's not But I didn't before the season. 217 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 4: Have Minnesota good enough to beat most teams? We talked 218 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 4: about it, But I think right now, I think they'll 219 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 4: they'll be Denver pretty I think they beat they will 220 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,319 Speaker 4: probably beat Denver the first round. Yeah, you know what 221 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 4: I'm saying, which should not happen, as like the Denver 222 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:51,680 Speaker 4: Nuggers should not allow. 223 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 3: That the way the season is unfolding injury wise, And 224 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 3: I really do, I really do think like this collapse 225 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:01,959 Speaker 3: happened once your kids. You know, Hyper extended his knee 226 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 3: and you know he came back quicker than people anticipated. 227 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 3: But again, if you just watch, you can pull up 228 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,680 Speaker 3: the games from earlier in the season in terms of 229 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 3: the effort and like how well they it's because Denver's 230 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:18,440 Speaker 3: never gonna be you know, san Antonio on OKC, on defense, 231 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,679 Speaker 3: they're not. But if you could be like the twelve 232 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:25,200 Speaker 3: eleventh best defense, that's plenty, that's good enough. 233 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 1: You can't be twenty six. You can't be twenty six. 234 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 6: You'll at least be ten spots. 235 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 3: Come on, bro, So we'll see how that stuff shakes out. 236 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 3: Speaking of up and down roller coaster, round and round 237 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 3: we go. 238 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:43,679 Speaker 1: Uh Kawhi. Leonard is also streaking. 239 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,080 Speaker 3: Last night was his forty second straight game with twenty 240 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 3: plus points, the second longest active streak in the NBA 241 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:54,320 Speaker 3: behind shake Gilgess Alexander that's crazy. He looked amazing against 242 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 3: the Knicks, scored twenty nine points. Ben Mathern couldn't miss. 243 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:01,079 Speaker 3: He dropped twenty eight the Clippers. The Knicks won twenty 244 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:03,960 Speaker 3: six eighteen to climb back the five hundred for the 245 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 3: first time since early November. 246 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 6: That's crazy, I mean, Okay. 247 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 3: The Clippers at thirty two and thirty two and have 248 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 3: won five of their first six games in March after 249 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 3: beginning the season six and twenty one. Karl Anthony Towns 250 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 3: had thirty five to fifteen for the Knicks, its first 251 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:22,680 Speaker 3: thirty point game this calendar year. 252 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,200 Speaker 6: Big Cats Home, Big Cats, rather big Cat. 253 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:29,080 Speaker 3: He must love being in that. Laf Brunson had twenty six, 254 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 3: og had twenty two. When you think about the Clippers 255 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 3: turn around this season. 256 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 2: Paul Man, originally I thought when they traded James Harden 257 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 2: in the middle of like a great run, they were on. Yeah, 258 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 2: they were kind of like throwing in the towel. But 259 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 2: then I look with that dishes they got in Benedict 260 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 2: and the point. 261 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 1: Guard Darris gard Garland. 262 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 2: They actually, I actually like the way they play, the 263 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 2: free flowing style playing because before they were so dependent 264 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 2: on James Harden can ROAs to make plays for pretty 265 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 2: much everybody, and if he didn't have it, give it 266 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,559 Speaker 2: to Kawhi. Whereas now it's more free flowing. You don't 267 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 2: have Zubac clogging up the middle as much because now 268 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:10,960 Speaker 2: you have guys who are spread around the perimeter that 269 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:14,680 Speaker 2: can knock down shots. They can be trouble for somebody 270 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:16,959 Speaker 2: in the playoffs, I'm telling you, because they got experience. 271 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:21,120 Speaker 2: I mean, but Matthew's been deep in the playoffs. There's Garland, 272 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 2: he's an All Star, he's been an All Star, and 273 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 2: then you got Kawhi, so they can they can really 274 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 2: disrupt something in the West if they can find a 275 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 2: way to not play okay see though, which I doubt 276 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 2: they they can avoid. I mean, but the thing about that, 277 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 2: it's like they can beat you up for a round 278 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 2: to like we're okay, see so they second round, like 279 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 2: you know how the playoffs is Danny, Like, man, some 280 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 2: series they just beat you up and you're like, damn 281 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 2: you going to the next series, like my body is 282 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 2: just sore. That's the type of tea the Clippers can 283 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:57,200 Speaker 2: be in the first round. So man, they gotta hope 284 00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,559 Speaker 2: that they don't have to play the Clippers first. 285 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 4: I mean, even if they played the Spurs, it's gonna 286 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:04,719 Speaker 4: be trouble for him. But they it's impressive. I did 287 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 4: not again, it wasn't just James trade the Zubac trades. 288 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:08,439 Speaker 4: To me, it was like, oh, they're just thrown it 289 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 4: in his house. Yeah, we're throwing it like that. Somebody 290 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 4: gonna try to get Kawhi now, like what's going on? 291 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 4: But yeah, Kawhi, he's showing what he's been, Like what 292 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 4: he's capable of forty two. It's crazy that he hundred 293 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 4: games behind like the next active Street Yeah she's one 294 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:27,079 Speaker 4: twenty six and he's at twenty. But yeah, when he's 295 00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 4: when he's at his best, man, he's the top five 296 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 4: player in the league. 297 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 6: When he's at his best. 298 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,959 Speaker 4: You know, he just hasn't been available, hasn't been as 299 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 4: consistent with his body, but he's hooping. And to carry 300 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 4: them back from six to twenty one to thirty two 301 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 4: and thirty two is unbelievable, especially with all the trades 302 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:42,560 Speaker 4: they had. 303 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:47,559 Speaker 3: Yeah, new faces, Yeah, so acclimated the new teammates. 304 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:48,560 Speaker 6: I like, I like what they got. 305 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 4: They got some good The biggest thing was we didn't 306 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 4: know when Darius was coming back and how he's gonna 307 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:53,840 Speaker 4: look when he came back. 308 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 1: That's to me is the that's the key to me. 309 00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 3: Last night against the Knicks, him and Matt thrend they 310 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 3: just they it was just backbreaking stuff. And then you 311 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,560 Speaker 3: know they're beating the Knicks up on the offensive boards, 312 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,400 Speaker 3: which I'm just like, that's embarrassing if you're in New 313 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:11,760 Speaker 3: York just getting killed on second chance. 314 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,599 Speaker 4: Points and they don't have like a big front like what 315 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:15,959 Speaker 4: I'm saying, No, not at all. 316 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:18,679 Speaker 6: Mister Robinson didn't. 317 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 3: Know Mitchell Robinson didn't play always hot. Porty was getting 318 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 3: a lot of those non cat cat minutes.

I guess 516 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 2: based on like listening to your fans and understanding your 517 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,600 Speaker 2: brand and of that nature, they didn't want to catch 518 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 2: a black eye on this, even though it's one franchise. 519 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 2: It wasn't like it was league, Why we're gonna do 520 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 2: this league? 521 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:23,120 Speaker 5: Why this is one team who embraces that culture. 522 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:27,479 Speaker 2: And the protests and the crowd noise got too heavy, 523 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 2: and so they decided to do what was best, No, 524 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 2: not for Atlanta, but for the league as a whole. 525 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:37,200 Speaker 2: And so it's fine, And you know, I just wish 526 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:40,399 Speaker 2: we wouldn't be so hypocritical on certain things we allow 527 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:44,720 Speaker 2: in our and when we try to showcase certain events 528 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 2: at games, they a lot of different things. That's like, 529 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 2: I don't know, this is kind of shaky. I don't know, 530 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:53,120 Speaker 2: but I'm fine with it. 531 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:56,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, I had no issue with the Magic City Monday Night. 532 00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 4: I also don't think it was the wrong decision about 533 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,440 Speaker 4: the league. They made decisions where they best saw a 534 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 4: fit of what the responses they got. But honestly, I 535 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:08,199 Speaker 4: thought it was like a good thing for the like 536 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:09,959 Speaker 4: the city of Atlanta. I thought it was good for 537 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 4: like change it up, get more people excited to go 538 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:15,639 Speaker 4: to games. They are the most five hundred team in 539 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,680 Speaker 4: the world, right, and they have a lot of things 540 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 4: going on in the city where people like, sometimes they 541 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:22,640 Speaker 4: care to be this, sometimes they don't. They have other 542 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 4: things going on, so you actually can drive more people 543 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 4: to come to the arena, which is something like that. 544 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:30,439 Speaker 4: Why not so be it. I mean, we see the 545 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 4: wildest should in the airports, we see the wilds shit 546 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 4: all around the city gas stations. I'm pretty sure the 547 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 4: arena is probably the most clean cut they've seen. And 548 00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 4: even if they did a Magic City money, I don't 549 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 4: see it turning into Magic City. 550 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 1: Yeah. No, And that's what people I think. I guess 551 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:47,120 Speaker 1: that's what people were kind of bucking up against. It's 552 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:48,960 Speaker 1: not like the. 553 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 3: Hawks around like strip of poles and lap dances at 554 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 3: the games.

Anyway, he released 662 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:39,960 Speaker 4: like a four minute vlog. People show up the flog 663 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,160 Speaker 4: of what happened that night, and they guess the charges 664 00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:44,720 Speaker 4: were dropped because he had been away from the pod 665 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 4: for a while. They putting him back up or not 666 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:52,520 Speaker 4: good fame. But yeah, charges were dropped, so he's supposedly 667 00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 4: in the clear, So I'm glad he's actually talking on 668 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 4: social media. 669 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 1: Now. 670 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:58,560 Speaker 4: Y also poked that trade young after the trade like 671 00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:03,520 Speaker 4: two months later, so he's still he's still being petty. 672 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:07,160 Speaker 4: But yeah, I think, I mean, I don't know, man, 673 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,240 Speaker 4: do you see it? I mean, Wenby is what nineteen 674 00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 4: twenty twenty one. 675 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 3: I think the thing with Pat Bev is that Pat 676 00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:20,720 Speaker 3: Bev has a reputation for antics. Yeah, and I think 677 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:25,560 Speaker 3: that's what NBA fans are reacting to Victor does. It 678 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 3: hasn't built up a reputation for being slightly ridiculous on 679 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 3: the court. Like I don't know if you guys remember 680 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,240 Speaker 3: Pat Bev was on the Lakers, then he got traded 681 00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:39,200 Speaker 3: or waved, whoever the case was. He comes back into 682 00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 3: town with his new team, scores and lay up on 683 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:42,239 Speaker 3: Lebron and he does this. 684 00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:46,560 Speaker 6: Yeah he doesn't, he's too he does. This is big 685 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:47,720 Speaker 6: for sure. 686 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:49,280 Speaker 4: But the biggest thing for me is, like the only 687 00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 4: difference to me is people see is because they look 688 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:54,920 Speaker 4: at Wenby as a kid. What I'm saying not saying 689 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 4: that it should be okay to show emotions regardless of 690 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,640 Speaker 4: age and sports. But you know, when they look at 691 00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 4: pat as a playing game, and I guess the celebration 692 00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 4: of it, like Wenby didn't celebrate it as much. 693 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 6: He was just emotional. 694 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:10,200 Speaker 4: He didn't jump on the scores hit like but I mean, 695 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 4: I guess there was a little bit of goalpost moving 696 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 4: when you think about it. 697 00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:17,080 Speaker 1: But what do you think. 698 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 3: About showing emotions during games, maybe wins or losses, Paul, 699 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:25,520 Speaker 3: Because I remember, you know, Chris Brown in twenty Chris Brown, 700 00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 3: Chris Bosh in twenty eleven, after they lost the finals, 701 00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 3: they would show that clip of him crying over and over. 702 00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 3: I watched that on esp and a bunch of times, 703 00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 3: and people clown Chris Bosh for that for essentially for caring. 704 00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:40,480 Speaker 3: You know, what do you think about that? 705 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:43,640 Speaker 2: I think the guys who showed this type of emotion 706 00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:48,240 Speaker 2: are the ones that you don't know what they put 707 00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:52,520 Speaker 2: into it. And when they go through something and they 708 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:56,840 Speaker 2: overcome like a hurdle, sometimes that comes out, you know, 709 00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 2: like maybe Winby hasn't been in a situation this type 710 00:33:59,880 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 2: of win. That was one of the more gutsiest wins 711 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:04,600 Speaker 2: of the season because it was on the back to back. 712 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 5: Down twenty five. 713 00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:09,439 Speaker 2: That could have packed it in and he's like, WHOA, 714 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 2: I probably never been nothing a part of that before, 715 00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:14,600 Speaker 2: you know in the NBA to where that's something that hey, 716 00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 2: that can that can that we know who we are, 717 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:19,440 Speaker 2: we know that this can show up again. So no 718 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:22,520 Speaker 2: matter what, if we get down twenty five, I feel 719 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:24,560 Speaker 2: like we can do it again because he's probably never 720 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:24,840 Speaker 2: done that. 721 00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:29,080 Speaker 5: And in the case with Pat, it just shows the 722 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:30,239 Speaker 5: work because. 723 00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:33,799 Speaker 2: When I cried after a game, all the the work 724 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 2: that I put in comes out because people don't see 725 00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:40,600 Speaker 2: that part. People don't see me running up sand hills, falling, cutting, 726 00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 2: scraping my knee, uh you know, running running the track, 727 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:49,880 Speaker 2: same things, turning my ankle, recovering, rehabit all of this, 728 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:52,960 Speaker 2: all of this stuff when and in some games, you 729 00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:57,719 Speaker 2: gotta dig deep and you figure out more about yourself 730 00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 2: when you get in these type of situations, and sometimes 731 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:03,920 Speaker 2: that emotions comes out. You know, I've seen Kevin Garnett 732 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:07,080 Speaker 2: cry in an interview. I've seen Alan iverson and we 733 00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:10,359 Speaker 2: know how passionate those guys are about the game. Only 734 00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:14,640 Speaker 2: the guys who who showed the most I think put 735 00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:18,439 Speaker 2: in the work and the passion. You see it though, 736 00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:21,680 Speaker 2: how they celebrate because it's the same on the other end, 737 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:25,799 Speaker 2: you know, and it's like damn, and then the joy 738 00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:29,400 Speaker 2: of tears sometimes come out, or the sadness of the 739 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:31,480 Speaker 2: tears come out like in some case. 740 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:34,160 Speaker 5: But that just shows you how invested they really are. 741 00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 6: YEA. 742 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:36,560 Speaker 4: With Pat, I think it was more so because it 743 00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:38,880 Speaker 4: was his old team, Like he made a point that 744 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 4: they you know, I guess they traded him. It was 745 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:43,400 Speaker 4: against the Clippers, right, That's why I think he was 746 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,720 Speaker 4: that emotional.

But since he's 849 00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:46,760 Speaker 2: just known to be a guy. 850 00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:49,560 Speaker 6: Who's just seriously constantly. 851 00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:52,040 Speaker 5: Just on the refs gestures and all.

But I still think 857 00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:08,360 Speaker 4: this is like a like I don't know when the 858 00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:10,920 Speaker 4: league made this like this. 859 00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:15,200 Speaker 3: Look, man, I think if you're Adam and it was 860 00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:23,120 Speaker 3: your you pioneered gambling and professional sports being partnered, you 861 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:26,880 Speaker 3: can't be seen to have your players And this is 862 00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:30,160 Speaker 3: a conversation, like we know, this is a conversation that's 863 00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:33,160 Speaker 3: been and it's been happening, especially with the NBA before 864 00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:36,200 Speaker 3: gambling became such a big part people on the internet 865 00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:38,319 Speaker 3: being like, oh Vegas put the call in or blah 866 00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:40,640 Speaker 3: blah blah. Then of course there was the Donahute scandal 867 00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:44,080 Speaker 3: and all of that. Like, if you're Adam, you can't 868 00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 3: be seen to be letting it just flippantly, just like 869 00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:52,240 Speaker 3: whatever that a guy is accusing your reps of cheating, 870 00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:55,560 Speaker 3: like you just like to me, you have to come 871 00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:58,920 Speaker 3: down on that cause again, I think somebody's saying a 872 00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:04,440 Speaker 3: guy sucks, and somebody's saying the guy's deliberately ruining the 873 00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:09,480 Speaker 3: integrity of this outcome.

The outcome is predetermined because this ref 876 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:21,160 Speaker 3: is cheating.

Kobe worked his ass off tirelessly. He would 964 00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:37,080 Speaker 3: not take failure as an option. He wouldn't leave no 965 00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:42,400 Speaker 3: stone unturned to improve himself in there for improving his team. Also, 966 00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:49,200 Speaker 3: Kobe is a maniac asshole, not great fun coworkers. Those 967 00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:52,160 Speaker 3: are the two variety of Kobe stories that we get. 968 00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:55,040 Speaker 3: Our latest one is Jeremy Lynn. 969 00:46:55,680 --> 00:46:59,640 Speaker 1: Okay.

Like it's like I 1019 00:49:09,680 --> 00:49:12,080 Speaker 7: believe you believe that if I lock in, we're gonna 1020 00:49:12,080 --> 00:49:14,440 Speaker 7: win this game because you believe in who I am. Right, 1021 00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:17,480 Speaker 7: But if you're just talking down to me, yelling at me, 1022 00:49:17,600 --> 00:49:18,719 Speaker 7: talking down to me like. 1023 00:49:21,560 --> 00:49:27,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean that he I mean, you know, it's 1024 00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:29,560 Speaker 4: a shift in the you know the errors. Hold on, 1025 00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:31,879 Speaker 4: that's error. 1026 00:49:32,080 --> 00:49:36,040 Speaker 3: Let's just assume we can assume the language that Kobe use. 1027 00:49:36,760 --> 00:49:41,440 Speaker 3: Mm hmm, yeah, dumb ass, stop being a bitch, like 1028 00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:46,320 Speaker 3: we know what he probably said, Like is it really sensitive. 1029 00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:48,200 Speaker 6: To be like bro, like, Yo, I'm grown man. 1030 00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:51,320 Speaker 3: Grown man, Like we can talk about my mistakes without 1031 00:49:52,160 --> 00:49:53,000 Speaker 3: that part of it. 1032 00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:56,160 Speaker 4: I think that could have been better said via face 1033 00:49:56,480 --> 00:50:02,879 Speaker 4: in text. But again, every person knows who they're dealing with, right, 1034 00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:07,279 Speaker 4: Certain people you react to differently in others, And I 1035 00:50:07,320 --> 00:50:11,879 Speaker 4: think Cob like you know, with him, I'm not saying 1036 00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:13,759 Speaker 4: handle it correctly, but that's how he saw a fit 1037 00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:16,719 Speaker 4: to handle it and didn't really care to respect him. 1038 00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:17,439 Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying. 1039 00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:20,120 Speaker 4: I think other people might demand respecting a different way. 1040 00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:21,839 Speaker 4: It might not have to because of who they are 1041 00:50:21,880 --> 00:50:24,680 Speaker 4: and their reputation when it comes to dealing with certain people. 1042 00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:26,600 Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying. Would Ron our task get 1043 00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:29,319 Speaker 6: that that type of talk? 1044 00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:30,480 Speaker 1: Probably not. 1045 00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:33,239 Speaker 6: Would he even have to have that conversation. 1046 00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:39,440 Speaker 4: But I think there's there that choked the shut out 1047 00:50:39,440 --> 00:50:40,760 Speaker 4: shit you talk to him like that. 1048 00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:43,000 Speaker 3: Is that is that part where it's just like do 1049 00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:44,319 Speaker 3: I really want to get into a fist fight? 1050 00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:48,560 Speaker 6: So he would approach him different and saying it's like, yo. 1051 00:50:48,680 --> 00:50:53,800 Speaker 3: If we're to believe Kobe and his myth like because Ron. 1052 00:50:53,680 --> 00:50:55,480 Speaker 1: Is the way, It's like, I don't even need to talk. 1053 00:50:55,520 --> 00:50:58,760 Speaker 1: I know Ron is. He's killing himself. 1054 00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:01,800 Speaker 4: Maybe n makes mistakes, just like Germany. He gonna do 1055 00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:04,359 Speaker 4: some dumb shit too sometimes everybody's done some dumb shit before. 1056 00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:07,440 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, it's just and all Jay lenn Is. But 1057 00:51:07,480 --> 00:51:09,480 Speaker 4: the way he's making it sound, the way he's asking 1058 00:51:09,560 --> 00:51:11,919 Speaker 4: it sounded sensitive and soft because he's just that type 1059 00:51:11,960 --> 00:51:14,720 Speaker 4: of person. What I'm saying, you look at him Asian 1060 00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:18,959 Speaker 4: American like you look like the younger general. But again, 1061 00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:20,799 Speaker 4: if it was Lamar Oldham or somebody like Yo Coche, 1062 00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:24,560 Speaker 4: you could talk like, listen, bro we grow him in here. Again, 1063 00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:26,040 Speaker 4: I think that would have came off differently if he 1064 00:51:26,080 --> 00:51:26,880 Speaker 4: talked to him in person. 1065 00:51:27,160 --> 00:51:28,920 Speaker 1: What do you think about the language policing. 1066 00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:31,360 Speaker 5: That's how I look at it. 1067 00:51:31,600 --> 00:51:34,440 Speaker 2: I need knowing how competitive one of the great competitors 1068 00:51:34,440 --> 00:51:37,440 Speaker 2: in all the sports ever knowing Kobe like, sometimes stuff 1069 00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:40,080 Speaker 2: is gonna come out a certain way to where you're 1070 00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:43,359 Speaker 2: not gonna like it. But at the same time, this 1071 00:51:43,440 --> 00:51:44,960 Speaker 2: is what made him who he is. This is what 1072 00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:46,000 Speaker 2: made him a winner. 1073 00:51:46,200 --> 00:51:46,480 Speaker 5: Alla. 1074 00:51:46,760 --> 00:51:49,880 Speaker 2: Same with Michael Jordan.

And so, 1216 00:57:58,520 --> 00:58:01,200 Speaker 1: you know, shots of Jalen for being vulnerable doing. 1217 00:58:01,440 --> 00:58:03,400 Speaker 4: Yeah talking, you know, you know what I'm saying, through 1218 00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:05,680 Speaker 4: his issues, you know, good for him. He knows how 1219 00:58:05,720 --> 00:58:08,520 Speaker 4: to express himself in different ways and not afraid to anyway. 1220 00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:13,600 Speaker 5: Who Jaylen, okay, Jayleen, okay. 1221 00:58:13,760 --> 00:58:15,080 Speaker 1: All right, let's get out of here. 1222 00:58:15,120 --> 00:58:19,240 Speaker 3: Man on some finally some good news coming out of Orlando. Yeah, 1223 00:58:19,280 --> 00:58:21,640 Speaker 3: the Magic are winners of seven out of the last ten, 1224 00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:26,960 Speaker 3: and Paolo Bonciero specifically has really been stepping it up 1225 00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:29,400 Speaker 3: many They're in the sixth seed, which I think is 1226 00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:33,240 Speaker 3: still disappointing for what the Magic their expectation was going 1227 00:58:33,280 --> 00:58:36,000 Speaker 3: into the season. But you know, it seems like they're 1228 00:58:36,080 --> 00:58:38,280 Speaker 3: rounding in the shape. I think it's a big deal 1229 00:58:38,320 --> 00:58:39,560 Speaker 3: that Jalen Suggs. 1230 00:58:39,240 --> 00:58:42,160 Speaker 1: Is playing a little bit more consistently, and he's so 1231 00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:44,080 Speaker 1: big for what they do just generally. 1232 00:58:45,360 --> 00:58:50,000 Speaker 3: But Paolo man, you know, putting up thirty points, thirty five, 1233 00:58:50,160 --> 00:58:53,680 Speaker 3: thirty thirty seven every other game, it seems like now 1234 00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:56,760 Speaker 3: I think that's a big, big development for them. 1235 00:58:56,760 --> 00:58:59,120 Speaker 5: Paul, Yeah, I mean as of lately. 1236 00:58:59,160 --> 00:59:01,320 Speaker 2: But on the over off scale, I think this is 1237 00:59:01,360 --> 00:59:04,680 Speaker 2: a This has been a disappointing year for Pablo in 1238 00:59:04,720 --> 00:59:07,480 Speaker 2: my eyes, because I was expecting him to actually take 1239 00:59:07,880 --> 00:59:10,120 Speaker 2: the leap, you know, based on what he did last 1240 00:59:10,200 --> 00:59:12,760 Speaker 2: year getting the team to the playoffs. He had such 1241 00:59:12,800 --> 00:59:16,320 Speaker 2: a great series versus Boston. I mean, they couldn't stop him. 1242 00:59:16,440 --> 00:59:18,400 Speaker 2: I thought, just coming into this year, he'll be a 1243 00:59:18,400 --> 00:59:22,240 Speaker 2: first team second team All NBA he's not. He's not 1244 00:59:22,240 --> 00:59:24,400 Speaker 2: going to do that. He's he didn't make All Star 1245 00:59:25,040 --> 00:59:27,760 Speaker 2: with which is surprising. And you know, he's one of 1246 00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:30,560 Speaker 2: the guys that I had high expectations for. I even 1247 00:59:30,600 --> 00:59:32,520 Speaker 2: said before the season, I think Orlando will be a 1248 00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:35,640 Speaker 2: top four seed coming into the year based on you 1249 00:59:35,680 --> 00:59:44,280 Speaker 2: know the accusations. I mean, not the you know, acquiring acquisitions, 1250 00:59:44,560 --> 00:59:47,240 Speaker 2: acquiring you know, Desmond Bang the one guy who can 1251 00:59:47,240 --> 00:59:49,960 Speaker 2: give him a scoring punch and some shooting, and so 1252 00:59:50,760 --> 00:59:53,040 Speaker 2: I'm glad that he's picking it up now. Hopefully he 1253 00:59:53,040 --> 00:59:55,240 Speaker 2: can continue his surge into the playoffs, but he has 1254 00:59:55,320 --> 00:59:58,960 Speaker 2: to be more consistent for this team to reach the 1255 00:59:58,960 --> 00:59:59,560 Speaker 2: next level. 1256 01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:01,320 Speaker 6: I fuck with what they got going on. 1257 01:00:01,440 --> 01:00:04,640 Speaker 4: Dez is finding his rhythm, uh, desim Bane for those 1258 01:00:04,920 --> 01:00:09,280 Speaker 4: that don't know, Polo is finally like putting up some 1259 01:00:09,360 --> 01:00:12,560 Speaker 4: All Star caliber numbers. But as far as it goes 1260 01:00:12,600 --> 01:00:15,240 Speaker 4: for them, again, this is an overall season not as 1261 01:00:15,280 --> 01:00:16,560 Speaker 4: great as I thought it was gonna be in even 1262 01:00:16,560 --> 01:00:19,040 Speaker 4: in the playoffs. I just don't trust them and it 1263 01:00:19,080 --> 01:00:21,520 Speaker 4: seems like there's still a disconnect, which there was some 1264 01:00:21,640 --> 01:00:25,120 Speaker 4: rumblings between them and Mos and maybe they if they've 1265 01:00:25,160 --> 01:00:26,840 Speaker 4: patched them things up maybe things have gotten better. 1266 01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:28,680 Speaker 1: I don't think Moses long for this job. 1267 01:00:29,640 --> 01:00:31,439 Speaker 6: We'll see, but again, it depends on who they match 1268 01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:32,960 Speaker 6: up the first round. They're going home. It looks like 1269 01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:33,640 Speaker 6: they're going home. 1270 01:00:34,040 --> 01:00:39,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, whether it's Knicks, Cleveland, Pistons, any one of those 1271 01:00:39,040 --> 01:00:40,720 Speaker 4: teams that have home court advantage, they go home in 1272 01:00:40,720 --> 01:00:42,320 Speaker 4: the first round. This was a team that we thought 1273 01:00:42,400 --> 01:00:44,440 Speaker 4: should have been or could have been an Eastern Conference finals. 1274 01:00:47,440 --> 01:00:50,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, but at least the way they played Boston last year. 1275 01:00:51,360 --> 01:00:53,760 Speaker 4: At least Eastern Conference finals we thought the start of 1276 01:00:53,800 --> 01:00:57,400 Speaker 4: the year. So it be a first round exit. That's disappointing, 1277 01:00:57,440 --> 01:00:59,160 Speaker 4: but I said, I'm glad he's picking it up. I'm 1278 01:00:59,200 --> 01:01:02,560 Speaker 4: glad thats found rhythm. Hopefully they get fully healthy, you know, 1279 01:01:02,600 --> 01:01:04,400 Speaker 4: front like they need all those guys on deck to 1280 01:01:04,400 --> 01:01:07,440 Speaker 4: be able to compete whoever they play in the first round. 1281 01:01:07,040 --> 01:01:09,240 Speaker 4: They could upset somebody in the first round. I can 1282 01:01:09,280 --> 01:01:11,400 Speaker 4: see that happening to maybe, but outside of that, they're 1283 01:01:11,400 --> 01:01:12,840 Speaker 4: not going any further than the second round. 1284 01:01:13,080 --> 01:01:15,160 Speaker 1: All right, man, Magic got my attention. 1285 01:01:15,680 --> 01:01:18,040 Speaker 3: I'm definitely gonna be paying more attention than what they're 1286 01:01:18,040 --> 01:01:20,840 Speaker 3: doing down the stretch because again, the talent is there, 1287 01:01:20,880 --> 01:01:23,240 Speaker 3: so it's just a matter of can they put it together? 1288 01:01:23,640 --> 01:01:25,720 Speaker 1: All right, folks, that's our show for today. 1289 01:01:25,760 --> 01:01:28,600 Speaker 3: Make sure you subscribe to the No Files Given YouTube page. 1290 01:01:29,120 --> 01:01:32,880 Speaker 3: Like this video, hit the notification button.
