1
00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:06,560
Speaker 1: How would you use weggie board? And is it real?

2
00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:09,680
Speaker 1: Do weggie board really work? And if so, what happened?

3
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:12,320
Speaker 1: Where do I obtain a weggie board? Do I have

4
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 1: to make my own weggie or can I buy one

5
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:16,000
Speaker 1: from a witch or vegan?

6
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:27,680

22
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:15,480
Speaker 2: Go through them, one by one. But let's start with

23
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 2: a little draft lottery reacts from your draft lottery experts. No, dugs, No,

24
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:24,319
Speaker 2: The Minnesota Timberwolves won the number one pick in the

25
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,040
Speaker 2: twenty twenty NBA Draft last night, after you know, winning

26
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:29,679
Speaker 2: the league's annual draft lottery. Many entered the night with

27
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,319
Speaker 2: a fourteen percent chance of moving up to number one,

28
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,399
Speaker 2: the same odds as the Warriors and the Calves for

29
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 2: best in the league. Best chance at that. So here's

30
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,119
Speaker 2: the full lottery breakdown for you guys. At number one,

31
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 2: the Wolves, two Warriors, three Hornets, four Bulls, tray foes,

32
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 2: Hawks six, seven Pistons, eight Nicks Hilarious, nine Wizards, ten Sons,

33
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 2: eleven Spurs, twelve Kings, thirteen Pelicans, and the fourteenth pick

34
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:58,480
Speaker 2: in the lottery there goes to the Celtics by way

35
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 2: of the Grizzlies. So the big winners, yeah, besides the

36
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 2: Wolves were those two teams that made significant jumps. You

37
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:09,359
Speaker 2: had MJ's Hornets moving up to eighth and Trey's Bulls

38
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 2: moving up from the seventh position all the way up

39
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,080
Speaker 2: to number four. Congratulations to you. Is that a win

40
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:15,680
Speaker 2: in your books?

41
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 4: Oh, you'll love to see it somehow, the Bulls aren't

42
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,920
Speaker 4: drafting seventh. I don't even remember what that's like. What

43
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 4: a summer for the Bulls. You know, Boiling is gone,

44
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 4: second place in horse and now the fourth way. Everything's

45
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 4: turning up for Chicago. I'm thrilled, Tess.

46
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 2: Any any takeaways from watching the draft lottery last night?

47
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:36,839
Speaker 2: What'd you think?

48
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 5: Well, I'm actually, if I'm Trey, I'm probably happy that

49
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 5: you didn't actually get the number one picked this year.

50
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 2: Because your name tas because he's Trey.

51
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,399
Speaker 5: Go ahead, because because last year you wonted the number

52
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 5: one picked desperately because it was aion.

53
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 6: Willie said, it was like you must get it that

54
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 6: last year.

55
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 5: This year it is kind of like, I don't you know,

56
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 5: there's not that one clean number one that frame enjoys

57
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 5: ault there. So it's not like, you know, you think

58
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 5: you're not going to get that number one pick very often.

59
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 5: So in a year where it's not a there's an

60
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 5: absolute lock at number one, it's probably not a bad

61
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:10,960
Speaker 5: year to have number you know, three or four, because

62
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 5: it's like any one of those three or four guys

63
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 5: at the top I think are probably you know, much

64
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 5: of a muchness really, so I'd be okay with that.

65
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 2: If I'm the.

66
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 3: Bulls, can't disagree and not much of a muss. No,

67
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 3: you're right, Lee though, that even the experts who are

68
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,919
Speaker 3: talking about whether or not you're going to take James

69
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:32,800
Speaker 3: Wiseman or you're going to take LaMelo, who knows, who

70
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 3: knows what you're getting. So you're basically, you know, taking

71
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 3: a bet or taking a gamble on personality and whether

72
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 3: or not your organization can build up a guy. And

73
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 3: so there's definitely going to be some trading down because

74
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,800
Speaker 3: people believe, yeah, I think the number six guy or

75
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 3: the number seven guy, yeah, could be our guy. Or

76
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 3: Denny of Dia out of Israel, who's not the next

77
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 3: Luka Doncic. Just because he's got white skin and plays

78
00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 3: abroad doesn't mean he's Luka Doncic. Everybody, everybody just relaxed

79
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 3: for a second. But all in all, I'm happy for

80
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 3: a small market team. I'm always in the corner of

81
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 3: a small market team. So I'm kind of happy that

82
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 3: the Golden State Warriors or Chicago Bulls didn't get it

83
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 3: in the end. I was definitely hoping for Charlotte or

84
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 3: Minnesota to get it. And so yeah, I'm pleased. But

85
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:19,039
Speaker 3: I think the from our perspective, as people who aren't

86
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 3: draft experts who are watching a lot of these draft

87
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:24,040
Speaker 3: experts say, hey, who the heck knows if it's James

88
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:27,039
Speaker 3: Wiseman or whoever, we're going to see some trading. I

89
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:30,160
Speaker 3: think that's going to be pretty evident. Whether it's before

90
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 3: or on draft date.

91
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:34,559
Speaker 2: It'll be interesting. Could we see the number one pick

92
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 2: and the number two pick be traded? I mean it's

93
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:38,919
Speaker 2: far fetched, I know, not for each other, of course,

94
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 2: but both getting off of them, because like you guys

95
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:42,280
Speaker 2: talked about, it's like, who do you really take? I

96
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,919
Speaker 2: don't know, maybe it's in play. I was laughing my

97
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 2: ass off during this broadcast when an MBA draft expert,

98
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 2: Jay Billis, he said, the only questions about Anthony Edwards, who,

99
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 2: by the way, might go number one, you know, is

100
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 2: at least a top three guy, Anthony Edwards, these are

101
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,920
Speaker 2: your concerns. The only questions his efficiency, his decision making,

102
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 2: his shot selection, and his defense. This guy's one of

103
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:08,279
Speaker 2: the best guys in this draft.

104
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 3: Again, I'm no expert, but you know, but you know

105
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 3: a bit about TV though, and for him to rattle

106
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 3: all those off in that b roll. That was eight

107
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:19,039
Speaker 3: seconds long. That was very impressive. I was a good job.

108
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:23,600
Speaker 3: The only question heank bank bank bank bank. Yeah, well

109
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 3: you never hear but you're right, you never hear him

110
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 3: say five different setbacks for a player for the potential

111
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 3: number one.

112
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that can't be good. And like from what

113
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,919
Speaker 2: I'm seeing, like the mocks, it is Edwards. You know,

114
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 2: if the Wolves do keep the pick and they stay

115
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,919
Speaker 2: number one, it's getting a wing guy like him and

116
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 2: obviously an athletic guy like him, and maybe they do

117
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,160
Speaker 2: slot him in there with D'Angelo Russell and Karl Anthony Towns.

118
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,600
Speaker 2: Though I've also seen people like try and convince themselves

119
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 2: go Wiseman, go two bigs, or hey you could take

120
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,159
Speaker 2: ball and move Russell to the two. It's yeah, it's

121
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 2: this at least if this happens what scheduled for December sixth,

122
00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 2: excuse me, October sixteenth, the actual draft. Yeah, there will

123
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,160
Speaker 2: be a lot of question marks in terms of trades

124
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 2: and just who who they even pick in this thing.

125
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, pretty funny that Anthony Edwards is getting compared to

126
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:09,919
Speaker 4: Andrew Wiggins and the top two picks in the draft

127
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:11,839
Speaker 4: are the team that just traded Anthony Wiggins to the

128
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 4: team they traded Anthony Wiggins too. Wait, I'm getting mixed

129
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 4: up now at this point Andrew Wiggins. Wow, too similar

130
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,479
Speaker 4: these guys are. We'll see what actually happens. You know,

131
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:22,840
Speaker 4: I feel like after a draft lottery, there's always a

132
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,159
Speaker 4: lot of talk about this pick could get traded, this

133
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 4: pick could get traded, and then usually it doesn't happen.

134
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 4: But we did recently see a number one pick get traded.

135
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 4: And you know, it's hard to make a case to

136
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 4: draft a LaMelo Ball if you've got Dangelo Russell in

137
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 4: the backcourt. So maybe you know, maybe the balls are

138
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,720
Speaker 4: gonna get up to number one. We'll take that number

139
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 4: one pick. You can have number four in some guy.

140
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 2: Who would you want then trade? If you traded up

141
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 2: for one, who would you take? Who would you want

142
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 2: to take?

143
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 4: I'm a Lamello ball fan. Of the three guys who

144
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 4: are in the top three, he's the one who seems

145
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,440
Speaker 4: like he has the highest ceiling. To me, I'll take

146
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 4: a pass on the two guys whose question marks are

147
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:57,480
Speaker 4: do they want to play basketball?

148
00:06:58,360 --> 00:06:58,600
Speaker 2: Yeah?

149
00:06:58,640 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 3: Never?

150
00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:02,360
Speaker 5: Good Yell has played against men, so I think that

151
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 5: is something that you can alieve, well, I think that

152
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 5: gives him at least you've got a little bit more

153
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,440
Speaker 5: intel on him, because again, most of these guys we

154
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 5: haven't seen play now for what six months or even longer,

155
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,840
Speaker 5: so it's it's hard and not that we watch them anyway,

156
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 5: but there was no March Madness, of course, and then

157
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 5: there's not even these workouts I guess that they have,

158
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 5: they haven't been able to do yet. So it's going

159
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 5: to be tough on the gms because you're just getting

160
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 5: a guy you just haven't seen play all that much,

161
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 5: and all you're going to do is get him in

162
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 5: sort of scrimmages or workouts in your own gym, and

163
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 5: very hard to assess, I think under those circumstances when

164
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,120
Speaker 5: you haven't really got much gameplay other than for LaMelo

165
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 5: Ball in Australia.

166
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:38,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's very true. How upset where you leave at

167
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 2: your next fell all the way to eat.

168
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,360
Speaker 5: I was thrilled because it was another punchline for the

169
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 5: Knicks that they actually dropped two spots in the in

170
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 5: the drama. It's just hilarious. It is hilarious how it

171
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 5: keeps happening like that. So yeah, I mean, who cares

172
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 5: they'll screw it up anyway. It would have It would

173
00:07:57,680 --> 00:07:59,280
Speaker 5: have been funny though, as I was saying earlier, if

174
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:01,040
Speaker 5: the Knicks somehow got the number one pick and then

175
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 5: they got like like, I mean, this is not a

176
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,360
Speaker 5: Zion Williamson, you man, You're going to get a guy

177
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 5: who might contribute. Maybe not, No one really knows. So

178
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 5: it's just hilarious. I mean, people think there's always a

179
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 5: fixing for the Knicks. You know that the NBA wants

180
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 5: to make the Nicks relevant again, and then something like

181
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,120
Speaker 5: this happens. So if you if you think there's a

182
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 5: conspiracy theory out there, I think it's been blown out

183
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 5: of the water yet again.

184
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 3: But this is a good year for the Knicks to

185
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 3: pick eighth because they've got some great scouting. I'm sure

186
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 3: they'll find their jem. Just let's let's all wait for

187
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 3: them to pick you Hayle, maybe LaMelo ball falls to them.

188
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 3: They're going to take somebody and it's not going to

189
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,840
Speaker 3: work out. That's just the way the Knicks role. I

190
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 3: think LaMelo LaMelo ball is so interesting though, because I

191
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:45,199
Speaker 3: heard you you scoff there a little bit skeets when

192
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,440
Speaker 3: Trey said he would take them, because, yeah, the the

193
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 3: chasm between the spectrum of is he good or not

194
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 3: is huge and whether or not you ask Trace mentioned

195
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 3: about the other guys, do they want to play basketball? Well,

196
00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,079
Speaker 3: LaMelo Ball, who the heck knows if he's going to

197
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:03,440
Speaker 3: put forth effort, different different raps on him. Sam Vassini

198
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 3: of The Athletic saying that on defense a lot of

199
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 3: the time, he's just wiping his feet ready to go

200
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 3: back on offense because he just he just wants to

201
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 3: have grip on the offensive floor where he wasn't great.

202
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 3: He's shot seven threes a game, shot twenty five percent.

203
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,680
Speaker 3: He played in twelve games in Australia. It's not like

204
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,599
Speaker 3: there's a monstrous sample size out there either for a

205
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:26,079
Speaker 3: guy who the heck knows. Man, I love those interviews though,

206
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 3: that one question interview from Rachel Nichols. Hey do you

207
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 3: like basketball? Hey? Do you like passball? Yeah? I'm gonna

208
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 3: be ready for the draft. Baby.

209
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,199
Speaker 2: Hey. Look, I'll say I can see why Trey Kirby

210
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 2: with what LaMelo Ball on the Bulls, because he's got

211
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 2: a look to him.

212
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 4: That's sure.

213
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,719
Speaker 2: He's got the chains and the earring, it's got the

214
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 2: little wispy mustache. Kid's confident in his look. There's no doubt.

215
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 4: So I like people saying, can you guess which one

216
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 4: of these men played professionally last year and which one

217
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 4: of them played in a college system? Man Anthony Edwards

218
00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 4: is sitting there just wearing like a T shirt, a

219
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 4: sweatshirt and Lamela like you're saying, looking like the rock

220
00:09:58,400 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 4: basically who knows?

221
00:09:59,640 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 3: Man?

222
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,520
Speaker 4: And you watch like the scouting YouTube clips, the weaknesses

223
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,080
Speaker 4: for the top three guys are all they don't care

224
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,080
Speaker 4: at all on defense, and they're showing you the clips.

225
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 4: It's wiping feet, it's just standing around, or if you're

226
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 4: wise min, it's just being big and slow. But who

227
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,199
Speaker 4: knows what's gonna happen. The great thing about a draft

228
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 4: is that you get to be excited up until it

229
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 4: actually happens, and then you get to be even more

230
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 4: excited until your player fails. You know, the Bulls don't

231
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,439
Speaker 4: have a great history at the fourth draft pick. We're

232
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 4: talking Marcus Pfizer, We're talking Eddie Curry, we're talking Tyrus Thomas.

233
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 4: So maybe we're putting this one on the Mount Rushmore

234
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,800
Speaker 4: of Bulls draft picks before spot Yeah.

235
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, the bonus of having all this time off is

236
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 3: you have longer to be excited for no reason. Right,

237
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,320
Speaker 3: your draft pick isn't going to fail until February instead

238
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 3: of November.

239
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 2: Yeah. I texted Joe Mandy congratulations, he's a Wolves fantasy

240
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,679
Speaker 2: congrats on getting the number one pick. He wasn't all

241
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:55,960
Speaker 2: that pumped for this draft, I'll be honest. He's like

242
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 2: already texting with all my Hawks friends to try and

243
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,000
Speaker 2: trade for John Collins. Well, the Hawks take the number

244
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:03,839
Speaker 2: one pick, you know, is there something that can be

245
00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:07,880
Speaker 2: package there? We will see. We were speaking of Lamello

246
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,839
Speaker 2: Ball's cool. Look. What about Steph Curry. I don't know

247
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:12,840
Speaker 2: if we've got a photo of that there, JD. But

248
00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 2: Curry with the corn Rows an awesome look. I love

249
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,440
Speaker 2: this for Steph. And it was really jarring because I

250
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,080
Speaker 2: was catching a little bit of the DNC convention last

251
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 2: night and him and his wife and his kids had

252
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,200
Speaker 2: a fun little segment on there, and it was obviously

253
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,080
Speaker 2: recorded prior to him doing the rose here. But what

254
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 2: do you think about this? Trey?

255
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:34,680
Speaker 4: Hey man, it's a different time. You know, people are

256
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 4: avoiding barber shops more. So we got to experiment with

257
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 4: our hairstyles, skeets are growing a big old long beard

258
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:43,600
Speaker 4: at this point. No different than Steph Curry going with

259
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:44,199
Speaker 4: corn rows.

260
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:46,559
Speaker 6: How long did you have to bait a cornrow at tree?

261
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:47,960
Speaker 4: Because you can do it?

262
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:49,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can do it for sure.

263
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 6: All right.

264
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 2: Oh that's a great pick up pick.

265
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 4: You did well for sure.

266
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 6: You did it in high school, didn't you.

267
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 4: Hey, yeah I did. I did twenty years ago. Times

268
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 4: were a little different than twenty years ago.

269
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 5: Well, listen, the funny thing about corn Rose is David Beckham,

270
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,440
Speaker 5: who anything he does looks cool, even with him corner

271
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:11,679
Speaker 5: he socked socked on name.

272
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 6: So I think I'm gonna drive. You never know, you

273
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 6: never know.

274
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 4: It'd be fun.

275
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,400
Speaker 2: A couple other things before we move on to the games.

276
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,719
Speaker 2: Just from the broadcast, one piece of news that came

277
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 2: out of this, you know, Adam Silver was interviewed by

278
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,319
Speaker 2: Rachel Nichols. He said, on the start of the twenty

279
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:30,959
Speaker 2: twenty twenty one season, so next season December first, Now

280
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 2: that we're working through this season, it feels a little

281
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,560
Speaker 2: bit early to me. And he talked about how getting

282
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 2: fans back in the arenas is a priority of something

283
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 2: we had been talking about in the past that we've

284
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,319
Speaker 2: been hearing too, So I can't imagine we're going to

285
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 2: be tipping off next season in December. More likely tasks

286
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:50,280
Speaker 2: that we're looking into twenty twenty one, like actually in January,

287
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:51,400
Speaker 2: February probably right.

288
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,199
Speaker 3: Yeah, he said the loud, the quiet part out loud,

289
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 3: saying that we want fans in the building and so

290
00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 3: we're going to push it back as far as possible,

291
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,319
Speaker 3: And that's exact what we've been saying the last few weeks.

292
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,560
Speaker 3: It makes the most sense, and it's nice to hear

293
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 3: little optimism from one of our leaders that not that

294
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:10,200
Speaker 3: he is in the absolute know about when vaccines are

295
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:13,080
Speaker 3: coming out or when actual fans will be in the seats,

296
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 3: but hey, it's nice to have some uh, some optimism

297
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 3: out there that people will actually be able to do

298
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 3: normal things, even if it's not tied to any actual reality,

299
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 3: that hey, maybe twenty twenty one will be okay, and

300
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:29,559
Speaker 3: you're watching the DNC yesterday's skeets, Yeah, maybe there's a

301
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,200
Speaker 3: little optimism out there, but yeah, the next year is

302
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 3: next year that there is uh, there's hope, there's hope

303
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,640
Speaker 3: that we will have fans in seats. So definitely December

304
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:39,680
Speaker 3: is just it's too early.

305
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean we've sort of always thought what this means,

306
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,280
Speaker 2: like they're going to end what October and they're gonna

307
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 2: be playing again in December. That was always sort of

308
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 2: far fetch, But yeah, here he was saying that. Another

309
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:51,719
Speaker 2: thing about this broadcast. I mean, I know they're doing

310
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 2: the whole zoom thing, like you know, Rachel's in one spot,

311
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 2: You've got all the experts all over the place. I mean,

312
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:59,560
Speaker 2: that's a difficult situation. We know all about that, but

313
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:04,599
Speaker 2: we got to start requiring some reactions from these team representatives,

314
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,440
Speaker 2: like whether they're in the studio or whether they're on

315
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:11,239
Speaker 2: the zoom call otherwise. I mean, let's just put mascots

316
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:13,760
Speaker 2: in their places, like I would at least be funny

317
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,600
Speaker 2: and they would react because that's all there can do.

318
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:19,000
Speaker 2: They can't say anything. They're just like, you know, and

319
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 2: I get it. It's like, what are you going to

320
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 2: react when you cut to a guy that okay, they

321
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:25,400
Speaker 2: stud it they stayed in the tenth spot, Like what

322
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 2: do you want to do? But I don't know, let's

323
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 2: just get silly with it. I think they could have

324
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 2: done mascots or something like that. It was just so

325
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:34,240
Speaker 2: like cut, nothing cut, nothing cut. You know, there was

326
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 2: just not a lot going on there.

327
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:38,480
Speaker 4: Last night was a little I'm the most animated member

328
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 4: of your front office. And it solves the problem basically, right.

329
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,600
Speaker 4: You're like, you're saying, it's tough to celebrate when you're

330
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:45,360
Speaker 4: supposed to be drafted number ten and you still get

331
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 4: number ten.

332
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 7: But just throw up a couple of fun doing something

333
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 7: something people will taste. Yeah. The one other note Hollinger

334
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,960
Speaker 7: and Tim McMahon i mentioned the Celtics getting that fourteenth pick.

335
00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 7: They both mentioned on Twitter that the Grizzly have finally

336
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 7: given up the pick they owe the Celtics for the

337
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:06,840
Speaker 7: Jeff Green deal five and a half years laterly six

338
00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 7: teams later for Jeff Green, who's now making a significant

339
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 7: impact in the playoffs. We'll get to that. In that game,

340
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:14,440
Speaker 7: you continue to have another good one, but that's done.

341
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 7: That's over now the Jeff Green, the pick there is

342
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 7: has transferred.

343
00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 5: Well, I think as well. People were saying that's the

344
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,240
Speaker 5: reason why the Celtics went basically with a full squad

345
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 5: against the Grizzlies to get hold of that pick. I

346
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 5: think so that's probably a part of it. Yeah, some

347
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:30,680
Speaker 5: of these things. I like, you know, they just go

348
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:32,680
Speaker 5: on and on and on. It's like you just wonder

349
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 5: if at some point someone's just forgotten about it or

350
00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 5: let one go, because I mean it's people just because

351
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 5: didn't the Heat trade someone I can't remember who for

352
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:43,000
Speaker 5: like a twenty twenty four Yeah, that's still going right,

353
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 5: the Dwayne Waite trade. I think with Cleveland they gave

354
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:48,800
Speaker 5: a second round pick in twenty twenty four. I mean

355
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 5: we're still four years away from that. I mean, at

356
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 5: some point they just go, you owe us that pick,

357
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 5: don't you. And we've traded Dwayne Waite six years ago.

358
00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 2: Oh that's like anytime me and my buddy Grish make

359
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:01,560
Speaker 2: a better on something, we have to write it down

360
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:03,560
Speaker 2: because three years later someone's like, hey, you'll be ten

361
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,080
Speaker 2: bucks for that one time we bet on a team

362
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 2: X to not win fifty games. You gotta you gotta

363
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 2: keep track of all these things for sure.

364
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought that pick already conveyed to uh Dan Wade.

365
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 3: That's how they hold them. Oh oh yeah, we already

366
00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:19,480
Speaker 3: conveyed that pick. You don't have it anymore. You already

367
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 3: have a d weight.

368
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 2: On your final thing, final thing I wanted to add.

369
00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 2: I don't know if you guys know anything else. I

370
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 2: was just looking at photos from the Draft lottery and

371
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 2: Getty Images and I just got a kick out of.

372
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:30,160
Speaker 4: This, j D.

373
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 2: I sent this to you so you can throw it up.

374
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:36,480
Speaker 2: Mark Tatum holding the cards, Okay, just have a look

375
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:40,320
Speaker 2: at this, guys. Did they photoshop in the logo or

376
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:45,320
Speaker 2: is Mark Tatum holding the card exactly the same because

377
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 2: his face is a little different in some of them. Yes,

378
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 2: I couldn't believe it. Tasks. He's holding it so perfect

379
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:53,440
Speaker 2: and the angle of the camera is so perfect.

380
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 3: It's like one of those people that have Instagram accounts

381
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 3: that's just the same photo of themselves over in every

382
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:02,560
Speaker 3: single square of their Instagram. Mccot totally. But yeah, he's

383
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:05,400
Speaker 3: just he's just made for the job. There is there

384
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:08,320
Speaker 3: are slight differences, but he just does his job well.

385
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 2: Slight slight differences. All right, So congrats to the Wolves,

386
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 2: congrats to Joe Mandy, and we'll see how this all

387
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:18,119
Speaker 2: shakes out come October, which still feels like an eternity

388
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,240
Speaker 2: from now, but we're almost to September, so it's not

389
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 2: that far away. Okay, let's get to the games. Guys,

390
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,160
Speaker 2: we'll start in the Western Conference here this morning. Anthony

391
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:31,920
Speaker 2: Davis helps the Lakers route the Blazers one eleven eighty eight.

392
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:34,639
Speaker 2: One eleven was the score of the day yesterday. A

393
00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:37,160
Speaker 2: lot of one elevens, but dominant win here from the Lakers.

394
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:38,640
Speaker 2: They tied the series up one one test.

395
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:41,919
Speaker 3: What do you think, Well, the Lakers really put the

396
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,640
Speaker 3: clamps on Damian Lillard. That defense that has been good

397
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:49,159
Speaker 3: all year long came out and really shut down Damian Lillard,

398
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 3: and they were up seventeen at half. And I know

399
00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:53,880
Speaker 3: the easy sort of storyline or the easy takeaway from

400
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:56,200
Speaker 3: this is, well, the Lakers are shooting well again. They

401
00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 3: just started shooting well. They weren't shooting well before. I

402
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:00,560
Speaker 3: don't think that was the case at all. They took

403
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:02,720
Speaker 3: away Damian Lillard big time. And we'll get to him

404
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:06,360
Speaker 3: in a second. But the first half, the Blazers only

405
00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:10,119
Speaker 3: had thirty nine points and they were down seventeen to

406
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 3: a Lakers team that was playing bullyball, and they only

407
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:16,320
Speaker 3: had four threes in the first half. I love how

408
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 3: you know, we talk about, hey, there might be two

409
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 3: bigs on the Minnesota Timberwolves. This is a different Lakers team,

410
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 3: and that they were just going inside. It's a different

411
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 3: team than everybody else basically in the NBA, and Anthony

412
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,200
Speaker 3: Davis is going inside and the three start to open

413
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:34,320
Speaker 3: up in the second half. But Lebron was really a

414
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 3: post player in this game, and it just seems like

415
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:42,679
Speaker 3: he doesn't have the finishing ability to score around like

416
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,399
Speaker 3: a use of Nurkic or really big guys. Right now,

417
00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,639
Speaker 3: that's just what's happening. And maybe he'll shut me up,

418
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:50,960
Speaker 3: because that was sort of the storyline when they were

419
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:53,840
Speaker 3: down three to one to the Warriors in twenty sixteen,

420
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:56,960
Speaker 3: Draymond Green goes out all of a sudden, bang things change.

421
00:18:57,119 --> 00:19:00,199
Speaker 3: There's people saying he didn't have any of them. He

422
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,400
Speaker 3: just didn't have a move at the rim. But right

423
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 3: now he's just a passer. He had four field goals

424
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:06,960
Speaker 3: and he didn't want to go into the lane, but

425
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,480
Speaker 3: he was playing from the post and he was creating offense.

426
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:12,560
Speaker 3: And I just wonder, if we are entering that era

427
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:15,200
Speaker 3: of Lebron's game, is he going to be a post

428
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,919
Speaker 3: player predominantly a lot of the time, because he is

429
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,760
Speaker 3: becoming definitely more of a passer and facilitator. And finally,

430
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 3: somebody scoring more than him on a team, and he

431
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 3: can score basically when he wants, but he is having

432
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:29,120
Speaker 3: a little bit of trouble finishing around the rim when

433
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 3: there's big dudes. When they're small dudes, you're done. But

434
00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:35,160
Speaker 3: when you got a yusuf nurkitchen there, he didn't want

435
00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 3: to go in. And it was just interesting to see

436
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 3: him just hang out in the post, especially not when

437
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:40,760
Speaker 3: he had Melon, but when he had Gary Trent on him.

438
00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:42,400
Speaker 3: And I just wonder what you guys think of Lebron

439
00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 3: venturing into that phase of his game, because yeah, Lakers

440
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:48,879
Speaker 3: just played off him. They played hard defense, and it

441
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:52,760
Speaker 3: was shut down in the first half. This was a

442
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:54,840
Speaker 3: monster blow garbage time for the fourth quarter.

443
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,879
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean for me, Gary Trent has done a

444
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:00,719
Speaker 5: good job on him too. In the p It feels

445
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:02,960
Speaker 5: like though Lebron can take him anytime he wants, but

446
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:05,919
Speaker 5: he's either resisting doing that because he wants to make

447
00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:08,080
Speaker 5: sure everyone gets involved and it's not just a Lebron

448
00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 5: takeover game, or it's just you know, he's thirty five.

449
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 5: He's not quite able to dominate as easily as he

450
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:14,680
Speaker 5: has done in the past. It reminds me a little

451
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 5: bit of shack, you know, in those last couple of

452
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:18,520
Speaker 5: years there in Miami where he was still good.

453
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:19,480
Speaker 6: Of course he's still.

454
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 5: A great player, but he wasn't able to just throw

455
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,639
Speaker 5: guys out of the way like he could in his prime. So,

456
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:25,480
Speaker 5: you know, I think that's a factor as well, But

457
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:27,680
Speaker 5: I think mainly it was just the Lakers came out

458
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:30,080
Speaker 5: yesterday and we're like basically picked little it up from

459
00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:32,280
Speaker 5: full court and get on him. CACP was on him

460
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:34,159
Speaker 5: pretty much at the start there, try to kick the

461
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 5: ball out of his hand as much as possible, let

462
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,520
Speaker 5: those other guys try to win the game for them,

463
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:40,040
Speaker 5: and they weren't able to do that. And on the

464
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:43,720
Speaker 5: offensive end, just way more aggressive, particularly with Anthony Davis,

465
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,359
Speaker 5: Like he's the best player, let's just get him involved early,

466
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:48,439
Speaker 5: get him a lot of basket buckets, get him to

467
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 5: the free throw line, and just really dominate as much

468
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 5: as we can. So, you know, that's the sort of

469
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 5: response you often see from a Lebron led team. In

470
00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:57,880
Speaker 5: game two, when they dropped that first game, it's like, Okay,

471
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,400
Speaker 5: we're not messing around here from the start going out

472
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,680
Speaker 5: there and we're just going to completely dominate this team.

473
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 6: And that's the thing.

474
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:06,920
Speaker 5: This game had no real juice as far as a competitiveness.

475
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:08,960
Speaker 5: For me, I thought the Lakers were on top early

476
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 5: and Lilid was firing some of those bombs in the

477
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:13,959
Speaker 5: first half. They weren't going in and I was like,

478
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:15,240
Speaker 5: this is not happening.

479
00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:17,800
Speaker 2: To knock the vises, the Blazers should have rested their

480
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:21,160
Speaker 2: guys for Game two. They should have not even put

481
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 2: them out there. I'm like half joking too, It's like, Okay,

482
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 2: we got the one game, now, let's give these guys

483
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:29,080
Speaker 2: a day off, a game off. And in a good way.

484
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,240
Speaker 2: It turned into a blowout, so they didn't have to

485
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:33,680
Speaker 2: play heavy, heavy minutes. I'm talking about, you know, their

486
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 2: star guys. But yeah, I like I like seeing Lebron

487
00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:38,680
Speaker 2: on the block, especially against his Blazers team task and yeah,

488
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 2: if eighty is aggressive and Ad isn't settling four shots

489
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:44,520
Speaker 2: on the outside like he's Embiid and now he's a

490
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,439
Speaker 2: better shooter, I believe than Joel Embiid. But he's been

491
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:49,680
Speaker 2: nice cold in the bubble, so he just went to work.

492
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:51,840
Speaker 2: He got in the paint. Eight of his field goals

493
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:53,159
Speaker 2: in the first half were in the paint. And then

494
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:56,400
Speaker 2: one was a three in like semi transition. Nobody picked

495
00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:57,960
Speaker 2: him up and he stepped into it with confidence and

496
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 2: knocked it down. But that was just it worked so

497
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 2: well Lebron in the post and then like this is

498
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,160
Speaker 2: we can They don't have an answer for me, Lebron,

499
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,359
Speaker 2: or especially for Ad. They don't when he's aggressive, and

500
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:11,359
Speaker 2: he finished with thirty one and eleven. The game was over.

501
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:14,240
Speaker 2: Lebron after the game's talking about he's a unicorn. Love

502
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,120
Speaker 2: here in unicorn again. It had been a while since

503
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,399
Speaker 2: we talked about a unicorn in the NBA. But he was,

504
00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:21,760
Speaker 2: you know, really building up Ad, saying, this guy does

505
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,840
Speaker 2: some things some of my other great teammates like Wade,

506
00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 2: not Dean Wade and Kyrie Irving, you know, we're not

507
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:29,879
Speaker 2: capable of doing. And that's the truth in this series.

508
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:31,919
Speaker 2: So it's just nice to see the Lakers go, all right,

509
00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,200
Speaker 2: come on, let's let's we got we sort of got

510
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:36,600
Speaker 2: embarrassing game one. We definitely got embarrassing Game one. Let's

511
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 2: get back to what we can do here in Ad,

512
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:39,879
Speaker 2: you got to lead the way. So yeah, I like it.

513
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,040
Speaker 4: I like what I saw from the Lakers last night. Yeah,

514
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,640
Speaker 4: and the defense was good again. They've held Portland under

515
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:46,600
Speaker 4: twenty five points in six of the eight quarters in

516
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:48,840
Speaker 4: this series so far. There's there was a garbage time

517
00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:50,800
Speaker 4: quarter last night, and there was that huge first quarter

518
00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:52,399
Speaker 4: in Game one that really turned out to be the

519
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,200
Speaker 4: difference in that win. But when the defense is kicking

520
00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:57,600
Speaker 4: up like it has been for the Lakers, they're gonna

521
00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,360
Speaker 4: be tough to beat, even if they don't shoot well.

522
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:01,920
Speaker 4: They shot per well last night, but like you guys

523
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 4: are saying, the reason I thought that Lebron and Ad

524
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,080
Speaker 4: would be shooting eighty percent for the series is because

525
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 4: they should be taken all layups, and maybe that will

526
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,160
Speaker 4: be the case. You know, obviously Davis three for four

527
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:11,879
Speaker 4: from three last night. You love to see that. But

528
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:15,119
Speaker 4: there's an advantage for the Lakers inside. They just have

529
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:17,840
Speaker 4: to take advantage of that advantage on a night when,

530
00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:20,159
Speaker 4: like Hassan, Whiteside doesn't play well. Right. We talked so

531
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,400
Speaker 4: much about white Side in Game one, protecting the rim,

532
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:25,399
Speaker 4: showing up everywhere, and it wasn't quite the same in

533
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 4: Game two. If they're gonna be able, if Portland is

534
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 4: going to be able to limit La inside, white Side's

535
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:32,560
Speaker 4: gotta be good. Every single night and good luck with that.

536
00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, and another reason why maybe the Blazers should have

537
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,600
Speaker 2: given their stars the day game off. Lillard dislocated his

538
00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 2: index finger on his left hand, and the third quarter

539
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 2: task team said the X rays were negative. He said,

540
00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:46,320
Speaker 2: it's just sore. It's a little tender to the touch.

541
00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:49,560
Speaker 2: He dislocated it, and it's going to be swollen. It's

542
00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:51,199
Speaker 2: on his left hand, that's not his shooting hand. So

543
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:53,439
Speaker 2: he says he's playing in game three. You see if

544
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:55,359
Speaker 2: it affects him at all, you know, at the very

545
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:58,000
Speaker 2: least his handle. I mean it could if it's that bad.

546
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 2: But that's you know, it's like we already got hammered

547
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:02,800
Speaker 2: in this game, and then your star player, who's like

548
00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:04,920
Speaker 2: you need to go for forty. Basically it feels like

549
00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 2: every night to win this thing obviously has a finger injury.

550
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:12,320
Speaker 3: Now. I was rough. The best part about it for

551
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:14,800
Speaker 3: me was seeing eight trainers around. It was like they

552
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:16,920
Speaker 3: were looking at each one of his fingers, like we

553
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,880
Speaker 3: had one trainer assigned to each one of them. If

554
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:21,879
Speaker 3: it was if it was old eight fingers, oh no,

555
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:24,280
Speaker 3: that's eight toes, that would have worked out. Yet it

556
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,360
Speaker 3: did seem like there's eight guys around, but if it's

557
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:30,879
Speaker 3: on his left hand, so hey, I'm drinking the Damian

558
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:34,320
Speaker 3: Lillard juice, I think he'll be fine. And yeah, it's

559
00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:37,000
Speaker 3: just I guess it's just Yeah, there was no there

560
00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:39,439
Speaker 3: was no competitive juice in this game. It seemed like

561
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:41,240
Speaker 3: it was over early. It would have been nice to

562
00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 3: have somebody say, all right, dame, they're taking you out

563
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,920
Speaker 3: of this thing, let me step up for you. Whether

564
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 3: it's c J Yusifnerkic probably one of those two guys.

565
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:54,879
Speaker 3: But that didn't happen, and everybody saying, well, they've played

566
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,200
Speaker 3: so many playoff games and they're bound to have a

567
00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,639
Speaker 3: bad game. Sure, I don't think they're physically tired, but

568
00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:02,040
Speaker 3: emotionally tired. I think it is true that you can

569
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:04,720
Speaker 3: have a dud and the Lakers can't come out and

570
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,360
Speaker 3: you know, throw some bows out there and pick you apart. Really,

571
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 3: I think they wouldn't watch film and Lebron said, I'll

572
00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:12,760
Speaker 3: hang out in the post, especially when mellow sits down,

573
00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,880
Speaker 3: and it's funny just to see a Lebron line where

574
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:18,959
Speaker 3: he had more turnovers than field goals. But we're not

575
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,440
Speaker 3: even going to talk about that really because ten points,

576
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:27,200
Speaker 3: seven assists, and six sports. He's just controlling everything despite

577
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 3: not having a you know, a real great shooting night,

578
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:33,119
Speaker 3: and it's just it's strange to see him not be

579
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,760
Speaker 3: able to just fire on all cylinders at this point.

580
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:37,439
Speaker 3: I wonder if that is going to catch up to

581
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:40,280
Speaker 3: him later when they're playing a better team. But hopefully

582
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 3: Dame comes back and makes this a series.

583
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,080
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, if you're not going to have a good

584
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:46,439
Speaker 2: game on the floor or in the box score, at

585
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 2: least you're Lebron James. You had the I don't know

586
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 2: what the moment of the night on Twitter where he's

587
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:53,320
Speaker 2: miked up and we get that awesome clip of like,

588
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:57,240
Speaker 2: hey it's our ball. Hey it's horrible turball, Doble. I've

589
00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 2: watched that like twenty times already because I laugh every

590
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,480
Speaker 2: single time how he goes from zero to one hundred

591
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:05,399
Speaker 2: just like that, and then he's like up, he's around

592
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:07,920
Speaker 2: that barriers screaming that it's their ball. Oh my god,

593
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:10,399
Speaker 2: very very funny. All right, Well, let's move on from that.

594
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:12,200
Speaker 2: Anything to add to that Lakers players game. It was

595
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 2: a dud. I mean it was you know, it was

596
00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 2: I think it was Schumann that tweeted that it was

597
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:20,440
Speaker 2: the first game for the Blazers the entire bubble run,

598
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,280
Speaker 2: so they're up to eleven games. I think it is

599
00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:24,920
Speaker 2: that it wasn't a close game. You know, it wasn't

600
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:27,880
Speaker 2: a five point game within the final five minutes, Like, wow,

601
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,600
Speaker 2: that is pretty incredible. So finally it was like, yeah,

602
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:32,720
Speaker 2: they got hammered. They weren't up thirty, unfortunately, but they

603
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:34,880
Speaker 2: were down thirty and Ad was a monster. So we'll

604
00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,840
Speaker 2: just see if the Lakers continue feeding a d and

605
00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:40,359
Speaker 2: continuing to try and be aggressive with Lillard and get

606
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:41,960
Speaker 2: the ball out of his hands, and see what Stotts

607
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,440
Speaker 2: counter to that is. I can't wait to see all Right,

608
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:47,280
Speaker 2: second game from the Western Conference, Harden he scores just

609
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 2: twenty one points, that's it. But the Rockets beat the

610
00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:54,000
Speaker 2: thunder Lea for the two to zero lead up. Oh

611
00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 2: your okc upset not looking good? No, Westbrooks through two

612
00:26:58,000 --> 00:26:59,439
Speaker 2: games and the Rockets are up to oh no.

613
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:03,359
Speaker 5: First credit muscow to Houston's defense. I thought they were

614
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:07,600
Speaker 5: incredible last night, hustling, closing out on shooters, chasing every

615
00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,760
Speaker 5: single ball they could, putting so much pressure on Okaz's

616
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:13,600
Speaker 5: okay sees offense. Because if you're the Thunder and you

617
00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:15,960
Speaker 5: said before the game, listen, Harden and Eric Gordon are

618
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:17,440
Speaker 5: going to go two for twenty one, do you take

619
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:20,880
Speaker 5: that right now? Absolutely they would have, because I didn't

620
00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:23,240
Speaker 5: think Houston's offense was all that good.

621
00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 6: I thought it was.

622
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:25,400
Speaker 5: It sort of picked it up, but I just thought

623
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,159
Speaker 5: they put so much pressure on Oklahoma City that in

624
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,879
Speaker 5: that third quarter. Okay, see, they did get the lead back,

625
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:32,199
Speaker 5: they want a little bit of a mini run there,

626
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 5: but it seemed like that was such an abnormality and

627
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 5: whatever word I'm.

628
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:37,359
Speaker 6: Trying to say that.

629
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:43,199
Speaker 5: Because other anomally, that's it because otherwise, okay, sees offense

630
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 5: for the second game in a row just looked absolutely awful.

631
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:50,040
Speaker 5: Is so stagnant, so much one on one stuff, And honestly,

632
00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:51,199
Speaker 5: I can't believe I'm saying this.

633
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,560
Speaker 6: They were better. When Chris Paul was off the floor yesterday.

634
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:56,720
Speaker 5: He looks like he's he you know, coming into this

635
00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:58,800
Speaker 5: season and you know he's going to make an All

636
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:01,560
Speaker 5: NBA team, whether it's for second or third. I thought

637
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:03,600
Speaker 5: he was a spry thirty five year old, you know,

638
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,399
Speaker 5: really turning back the clock, looking great in the bubble,

639
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:07,920
Speaker 5: and these two games so far, he all of a

640
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:10,240
Speaker 5: sudden looked like a very old thirty five year old

641
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:14,000
Speaker 5: to me. He doesn't seem to have that energy that

642
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:16,440
Speaker 5: we've seen from him, and I'm really I'm really concerned.

643
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:18,199
Speaker 5: And he talked about after the game saying, look, I

644
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:20,320
Speaker 5: got to pick it up, But I'm like, why he

645
00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 5: couldn't pick that up? And that third quarter yesterday was

646
00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:24,240
Speaker 5: a real surprise to me. And when he went to

647
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:26,920
Speaker 5: the bench and you saw, iil just Alexander and shrewd

648
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:27,080
Speaker 5: it out.

649
00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 6: They shrewd. It wasn't actually very good.

650
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:29,360
Speaker 2: It was horrible.

651
00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:31,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, but the ball at least moved and there was

652
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 5: a little bit more energy out there. And that's the

653
00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:35,479
Speaker 5: real concern for the Rockets. I think this is a

654
00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:39,040
Speaker 5: fantastic result to very good wins and obviously now they're

655
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:40,680
Speaker 5: they're the favorite to advance in this series.

656
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:42,240
Speaker 6: And will they get Westbrook back?

657
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 5: I mean again, I think they probably keep him out

658
00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 5: as long as they need to while they're ahead in

659
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,400
Speaker 5: this series and playing so well. You know, they're getting

660
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 5: contributions from everybody, and it's tough. Yeah, I picked the

661
00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:54,640
Speaker 5: upset here for the Thunder, but man, right now, it

662
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 5: is very tough to see how they're going to get

663
00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:59,840
Speaker 5: back into this series because their offense has just been

664
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:02,480
Speaker 5: and the Rockets, I mean again, I had zero turn

665
00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:04,840
Speaker 5: I was in the first half yesterday and I was

666
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:07,320
Speaker 5: still shooting the ball badly and they get a comfortable win.

667
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:10,800
Speaker 5: So that's that's to me, some good signs here for

668
00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:12,800
Speaker 5: the Rockets. I seem to be clicking right now.

669
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, there was that moment where Sga went on a run.

670
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:18,600
Speaker 2: He was like splashing threes. But then the Rockets went

671
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:21,080
Speaker 2: on a seventeen to zero run in the fourth quarter

672
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:23,640
Speaker 2: to turn what was a deficit of a three point

673
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:26,080
Speaker 2: deficit eighty to seventy seven into a fourteen point lead,

674
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:27,840
Speaker 2: and they won an ugly one. They were not like

675
00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:30,800
Speaker 2: they hit nineteen threes. You're like, well that's a lot

676
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:33,600
Speaker 2: shot fifty six of them, so you know, in shot

677
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:35,880
Speaker 2: forty two percent from the floor. Not amazing at all.

678
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:38,200
Speaker 2: Dort did a great job. He was back on Harden

679
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:40,720
Speaker 2: and helping bottling him up, and Harden shot two of

680
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:42,840
Speaker 2: eleven three, But it was the defense task. It really

681
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:46,800
Speaker 2: was like pretty damn impressive. Now, I think, Okase he's

682
00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:48,680
Speaker 2: helping him out in that regard. There's not a lot

683
00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:52,360
Speaker 2: of movement going on around the perimeter. Off ball, I guess,

684
00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:54,440
Speaker 2: is the best way to put it. So it's maybe

685
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:56,720
Speaker 2: a little easier to switch everything and you know where

686
00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 2: everybody is because the ball's not zipping around, players aren't

687
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:02,240
Speaker 2: moving around. But still, man, we get we got PJ.

688
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,160
Speaker 2: Tucker box out highlights in this one. That's a gang

689
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:08,640
Speaker 2: rebounding highlights. So you know, the three rockets digging down

690
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 2: on Adams to stop him from tipping the ball to himself.

691
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:14,480
Speaker 2: That they just were playing way harder and they're the

692
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:16,160
Speaker 2: team that's up one zero in this series. That was

693
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:17,080
Speaker 2: the shocking part to me.

694
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're ready for the playoffs. I think that's that's

695
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,240
Speaker 3: what it is. I think the Okay See's still a

696
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:25,120
Speaker 3: little bit of deer in the headlights going on. They're

697
00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:28,000
Speaker 3: just not as scrappy and that seventeen oh run in

698
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:30,600
Speaker 3: the fourth quarter that really settle things, most of it

699
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 3: without James Harden. Yeah, I think two things from the

700
00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 3: OKAC side, Yeah, they're they're on the offensive side for

701
00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 3: Oka See. Yeah, they're loading up big time on the

702
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,920
Speaker 3: ball and okay and Houston is ready to rotate. But

703
00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:46,520
Speaker 3: at the same time, I think Okaye's playing into that

704
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:49,840
Speaker 3: loading up a little too much. Swing that baby more

705
00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 3: and use a lot of the shot clock because Houston

706
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:55,240
Speaker 3: just wants you to fire up a shot or use

707
00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:57,680
Speaker 3: one action. I think they just need to use a

708
00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:01,640
Speaker 3: lot more actions. And from the Houston side, James Harden

709
00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 3: not on the floor for that big run. And even

710
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,040
Speaker 3: though Eric Gordon didn't have a three in this game

711
00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:09,800
Speaker 3: was zero for ten from three, at least he was

712
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:12,360
Speaker 3: getting into the paint. He is playing Russell Westbrook light.

713
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:16,440
Speaker 3: He is driving his ass off. And you know Harden

714
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 3: had five twos eleven threes. Well, at least Eric Gordon

715
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:22,680
Speaker 3: was getting into the lane. He split his twos in

716
00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,239
Speaker 3: his threes. He took ten twos and ten threes. And

717
00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 3: that was the key for me. He needs to get

718
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:30,600
Speaker 3: in there and be able to spread the ball out.

719
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:33,640
Speaker 3: So Daniel House and PJ. Tucker and Jeff Green and

720
00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:36,760
Speaker 3: Ben McLamore and Austin Rivers who was great to get

721
00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:39,960
Speaker 3: to hit those threes. So that's he's playing his role perfectly.

722
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,120
Speaker 3: I was very surprised to see Eric Gordon do that

723
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:44,640
Speaker 3: despite having a bad night. That was great. And the

724
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 3: second thing is, or the third thing is we talked

725
00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:50,920
Speaker 3: about guys who are in the number two role not

726
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:55,720
Speaker 3: getting criticism, like Paul, George, Chris Middleton will get to

727
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:59,200
Speaker 3: that guy and Tas Melice because I also chose. I

728
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 3: also chose in this series, but because Lee made that

729
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:04,880
Speaker 3: prediction a long time ago, he's gonna get the ridicule. Well,

730
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:07,959
Speaker 3: people are gonna people are gonna overlook me taking it,

731
00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 3: so it'll be a longer series. I shake Gillers, Alexander.

732
00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:13,640
Speaker 3: I think that was a nice the bright spot for

733
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:15,560
Speaker 3: okay See that he went from game one, what are

734
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 3: these playoffs? I'm a good Canadian boy. This looks a

735
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:20,120
Speaker 3: little too rough and tumble for me to I'm gonna

736
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:22,280
Speaker 3: ball out in game two. So that was big, and

737
00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:25,320
Speaker 3: lou Dort was big, but man, move that fricking thing.

738
00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:26,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, Trey.

739
00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:29,120
Speaker 4: Takeaways from this one Chris, Paul's got to be better.

740
00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:31,640
Speaker 4: I mean, the number two guys maybe should get some criticism,

741
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:34,200
Speaker 4: but the number one guy here for okay See, has

742
00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:36,520
Speaker 4: said himself, I've got to be better. It's as simple

743
00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:38,240
Speaker 4: as that, and I think that's one hundred percent true.

744
00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:40,080
Speaker 4: He had what twenty nine to nine I think in

745
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 4: the first game, but most of those points came in

746
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:45,880
Speaker 4: the fourth quarter. We always praise Chris Paul for controlling

747
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:48,520
Speaker 4: the game and getting his teammates involved and then taking

748
00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:50,640
Speaker 4: over in the fourth quarter. That can't happen anymore because

749
00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:53,240
Speaker 4: if Okse's down in the fourth quarter, it gets tough

750
00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:55,920
Speaker 4: to play two of their starting players, right Dort He

751
00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 4: does great defensively, but he's scared it when he catches

752
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:02,720
Speaker 4: the ball offensively, you and if you're down by ten,

753
00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:04,360
Speaker 4: do you run a guy out there that you can't

754
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 4: have shooting? Also when Steven Adams is playing, because then

755
00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:10,600
Speaker 4: that's two guys that are at best getting a dunk

756
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:14,680
Speaker 4: maybe and helping defensively, and that's that's tough. So Chris

757
00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:16,640
Speaker 4: Paul's got to come out and actually try and do

758
00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:19,120
Speaker 4: something in the first half I think would be huge

759
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:21,440
Speaker 4: and okay, so he has to play a little bit harder.

760
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:24,200
Speaker 4: Eric Gordon was ripping rebounds out of Steven Adams hands

761
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:26,640
Speaker 4: in the fourth quarter. It was pretty crazy to see

762
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:29,600
Speaker 4: the Thunder being the team getting out rebounded. I know

763
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:32,760
Speaker 4: they won the rebounding battle, but offensively, Houston took it

764
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:34,960
Speaker 4: and they just looked tougher. They looked like the tougher

765
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:36,520
Speaker 4: team and I don't think you would have expected that

766
00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:37,440
Speaker 4: coming into the series.

767
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:40,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, their offense was their offense was so bad for Okay,

768
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:42,760
Speaker 5: see Steven Adams put it on the floor at one point,

769
00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,560
Speaker 5: tried to drive inside and that ended disastrously for them.

770
00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:47,840
Speaker 5: But the thing was again that like he gets the

771
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:49,880
Speaker 5: ball and he's looking around, everyone just staring at him,

772
00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:51,720
Speaker 5: and it's like, I got this is not the same

773
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:54,200
Speaker 5: team that we saw during the season. The ball did

774
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:56,239
Speaker 5: move around and Chris Paul took control of things, but

775
00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 5: for whatever reason in these first two games and threw

776
00:33:59,880 --> 00:34:02,640
Speaker 5: it out the seating games there as well, they just

777
00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:04,880
Speaker 5: haven't looked anyway me at the same team that they

778
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,920
Speaker 5: would during that during the regular season. So Billy Donovan's

779
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:09,879
Speaker 5: got some work to do here because this one could

780
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:11,680
Speaker 5: be over in a hurry if they don't figure things out.

781
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:13,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is weird to see Chris Paul in the

782
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:17,279
Speaker 2: box score minus thirty six. You do not see that

783
00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:19,719
Speaker 2: often with Chris Paul. I mean, you'd have to go

784
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:21,919
Speaker 2: check the Basketball Reference to see how many times that's

785
00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:25,280
Speaker 2: happened in his career. I can't imagine it's many. Yeah,

786
00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:27,719
Speaker 2: and much love to and I hate to do it.

787
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,200
Speaker 2: To give much love to Jeff Green again because he's

788
00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:32,360
Speaker 2: still trying to trick all you guys, so be careful,

789
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:36,000
Speaker 2: still be careful with But he's strung together back to

790
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:36,640
Speaker 2: back great games.

791
00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:36,839
Speaker 4: Here.

792
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:39,200
Speaker 2: He was fifteen and seven in really big minutes off

793
00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:41,759
Speaker 2: the bench in game two, Rivers eleven points, he hit

794
00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:45,160
Speaker 2: three threes House. I know he's a starter, but obviously

795
00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:48,040
Speaker 2: a role player for them nineteen and nine in his

796
00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:51,799
Speaker 2: nearly forty minutes he was attacking. The energy from the

797
00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:55,399
Speaker 2: Rockets right now is very high. I mean they are

798
00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:59,040
Speaker 2: like it's almost like it's oddly like beneficial that Westbrook

799
00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:01,960
Speaker 2: is like out and on the sidelines and an iron

800
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:05,320
Speaker 2: Maiden shirt going bonkers right like. He's a great cheerleader.

801
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:07,439
Speaker 4: I think he's having an effect. He was getting hard

802
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:10,359
Speaker 4: and fired up, and Harden getting fired up therefore got

803
00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:12,480
Speaker 4: the rest of the Rockets fired up. Everybody was going

804
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:14,440
Speaker 4: crazy during the seventeen oh run, and that was with

805
00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:16,400
Speaker 4: their two best players on the bench. I don't know,

806
00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:19,600
Speaker 4: maybe you know, maybe Mike D'Antoni does eventually get fired

807
00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:22,000
Speaker 4: after this season. I know that was an old school prediction,

808
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:25,400
Speaker 4: but maybe they've got their replacement waiting in the wings

809
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:26,879
Speaker 4: already sleeves off.

810
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:29,560
Speaker 5: He looked awsome on the sidelines there with his hat

811
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:31,640
Speaker 5: and his mask and the Iron Maiden T shirt, like

812
00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:34,120
Speaker 5: fair play to russ Man. He's not just sitting in

813
00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:36,600
Speaker 5: the back there, you know, like clapping occasionally, he's up

814
00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:38,120
Speaker 5: and I think he was getting into it with the

815
00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:38,719
Speaker 5: rest as well.

816
00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:42,200
Speaker 3: At one point, has I ever listened to an Iron

817
00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:42,759
Speaker 3: Maiden song?

818
00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:43,960
Speaker 6: No, No, I doubt it.

819
00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:48,080
Speaker 3: I could see Iron Maiden maybe playing in the locker

820
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 3: room pregame, maybe getting them aft sty they come out.

821
00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:51,680
Speaker 4: No.

822
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:55,640
Speaker 2: Obviously, there's one more thing I wanted to add from

823
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:58,520
Speaker 2: this broadcast, just because I was like, what lou Dort?

824
00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 2: You know, back again, he did a great job, and

825
00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:03,960
Speaker 2: we talked about Harden oddly having sort of bad Game

826
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,279
Speaker 2: two's in a lot of series in his playoff career.

827
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:09,160
Speaker 2: He has Monster Game ones tails off in Game two.

828
00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:11,279
Speaker 2: But you know, Dort was a big factor. I think

829
00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 2: in this one. He does a great job trying to

830
00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:16,840
Speaker 2: stand front of when he does GVG. On the broadcast,

831
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:20,400
Speaker 2: the notorious jeffan Guni at one point says there's gonna

832
00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:23,040
Speaker 2: be a lot of babies named Lou in Okay, see

833
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:28,239
Speaker 2: after this performance what I mean, he played all right.

834
00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:31,000
Speaker 2: There's not a lot of babies being named lou for

835
00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:34,840
Speaker 2: this game two loss, where Dort did a decent job

836
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:37,400
Speaker 2: playing on Harden. I missed that.

837
00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:39,760
Speaker 6: I did not hear that. I'm glad I missed that, actually.

838
00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:43,879
Speaker 5: But yeah, Dort physically and athletically can keep up there

839
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:44,520
Speaker 5: with James Todten.

840
00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:46,680
Speaker 6: He sort of gets in it gets Yeah, he gets

841
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:47,439
Speaker 6: right in his grill.

842
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:50,160
Speaker 5: But yeah, the Rockets will let Dort shoot all day

843
00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:53,000
Speaker 5: on the other end, so you know that's that's the

844
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:56,040
Speaker 5: sort of payoff there. But but again, James Todden, he

845
00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:57,759
Speaker 5: won't care. He won't care if that's the sort of

846
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,120
Speaker 5: result they get when those other guys are hitting is

847
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:02,560
Speaker 5: because they went on another cold patch Houston. I think

848
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:04,759
Speaker 5: they missed like fifteen in a row. Yeah, and that's

849
00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 5: the sort of situation where it's like, see, you know,

850
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:08,520
Speaker 5: when the threes are falling, that's great, but when they're missing,

851
00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:10,600
Speaker 5: they're terrible. But it didn't cost them in the end

852
00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 5: last night, So you know, that's a good sign for

853
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:16,360
Speaker 5: Houston that other guys are still stepping up and hitting

854
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:18,800
Speaker 5: threes outside of you know, Eric and James.

855
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:22,640
Speaker 2: No, they look great defensively again, switching everything. You can

856
00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:25,000
Speaker 2: hear them on the broadcast talking to each other like

857
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,759
Speaker 2: there's that amped up. So kudos to them. Take the

858
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:29,719
Speaker 2: two US series lead. All right, we're gonna get to

859
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:33,200

884
00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:55,880
Speaker 2: Okay, over to the East. Let's start with the Bucks

885
00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:58,880
Speaker 2: bounce back defeat the Magic one to eleven. There it

886
00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:01,680
Speaker 2: is again, one eleven ninety. They tie this series up.

887
00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:04,200
Speaker 2: Not much of a shock here, I would say, Tasks,

888
00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:05,759
Speaker 2: But would you think you were all amp for this

889
00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:06,319
Speaker 2: game too?

890
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:11,560
Speaker 3: Well? Li said we should be worried about the Milwaukee Bucks.

891
00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:14,000
Speaker 3: I don't know how Lee feels, but I was uninspired

892
00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:16,720
Speaker 3: by the Bucks really in this game. Yeah, the Magic

893
00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:20,080
Speaker 3: came out and we're clanking the first quarter. They scored

894
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:22,120
Speaker 3: thirteen points in the first quarter and it felt like

895
00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:24,080
Speaker 3: it was over. Hey, they don't have a very good

896
00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:26,799
Speaker 3: offensive team. They don't have Aaron Gordon a lot of

897
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:29,160
Speaker 3: those threes in game number one where just sort of

898
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:31,799
Speaker 3: luck of the draw. They they're not going to shoot

899
00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:35,680
Speaker 3: threes like that again, and they're offensive player that has

900
00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:38,319
Speaker 3: a lot of juice. You know, von Portiy has juice.

901
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:41,560
Speaker 3: But Nikolovucevic I think you know he scored in this game,

902
00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:44,200
Speaker 3: he had thirty two, but those long twos that he's taken,

903
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:48,280
Speaker 3: take a step and a half back bury some extra points,

904
00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:51,560
Speaker 3: get that three going. Yeah, you lost by fifteen. If

905
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:54,440
Speaker 3: you turn some of those long twos into some extra points,

906
00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:56,520
Speaker 3: I think that helps Orlando. But that's that's the team

907
00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:58,560
Speaker 3: they are. They're not going to hit threes. And I

908
00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:01,520
Speaker 3: found it uninspired because didn't thin the Bucks were all

909
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:05,120
Speaker 3: that phenomenal in this game. Jimbo did the exact same

910
00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:08,640
Speaker 3: thing that he did in game number one, but brook

911
00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:11,040
Speaker 3: Lopez stepped up for me, and I think brook Lopez

912
00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:15,279
Speaker 3: is their clear number two, even though Chris Middleton will

913
00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:17,600
Speaker 3: throw out that fifty forty ninety number and he was

914
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:20,480
Speaker 3: an All Star and there's some some I forget who

915
00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:22,400
Speaker 3: it was. It went in one year and out the other,

916
00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:25,360
Speaker 3: but some crazy MVP talk. I don't know why that happened,

917
00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:29,040
Speaker 3: but because of those stats, because people like those stats,

918
00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:31,680
Speaker 3: but he doesn't step up in the postseason. He just

919
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:34,080
Speaker 3: it's not there. And I know you've talked about it before,

920
00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:38,640
Speaker 3: skeets Brook Lopez. At least when Giannis is he's a distributor.

921
00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:40,400
Speaker 3: He's not always going to be able to dunk the

922
00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:42,600
Speaker 3: ball when you face a good defense. When they faced

923
00:40:42,600 --> 00:40:45,440
Speaker 3: whether it's the Heat next round, or the Celtics Raptors

924
00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:47,960
Speaker 3: in Round three, or the Clippers or Lakers in round four,

925
00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:51,360
Speaker 3: he's gonna pass out. That's what's gonna happen. And I

926
00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:52,840
Speaker 3: don't know who's going to make those shots. I know

927
00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:55,560
Speaker 3: Brook's gonna fire. He is going to fire. At least

928
00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:57,760
Speaker 3: he's gonna think he's gonna be able to score. Chris Middleton,

929
00:40:57,800 --> 00:41:01,560
Speaker 3: I'm just not sure that's it. There's something going on there.

930
00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:03,640
Speaker 3: That's my You know, the worry with the Bucks is

931
00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:09,799
Speaker 3: that Brook lop As. I'm confident, but then three four five,

932
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:13,520
Speaker 3: you know Chris should be that guy. But I'm definitely

933
00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:15,719
Speaker 3: worried about this team going forward. So, yeah, they get

934
00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:17,520
Speaker 3: a w against the Orlando team who's not going to

935
00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:19,960
Speaker 3: score all that many points. And yeah, Milwaukee was fine

936
00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:23,520
Speaker 3: defensively because they're that good, but.

937
00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:26,640
Speaker 2: You're left on the fire. Yeah, well, what do you

938
00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:28,480
Speaker 2: think about that lead? I mean, again, they tied the

939
00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:30,720
Speaker 2: series up, you were a little concerned about the bucks,

940
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:33,279
Speaker 2: how they played all bubble and then then in game one,

941
00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:34,040
Speaker 2: what did you think?

942
00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:36,759
Speaker 5: No, I agree with what Tasa is saying. They're like,

943
00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:38,760
Speaker 5: they got the win, but it's like, you know, okay,

944
00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:40,480
Speaker 5: you should get this win too. You know, they've got

945
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:42,680
Speaker 5: three more games at least in this series where they

946
00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:45,360
Speaker 5: can start to hopefully find a little bit more of

947
00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:46,600
Speaker 5: their groove. And I think a lot of it does

948
00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:49,320
Speaker 5: come down to Middleton, because I think they need Middleton

949
00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:51,520
Speaker 5: to be the player he was during the season if

950
00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:53,560
Speaker 5: they are going to go far, and so far he

951
00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:55,280
Speaker 5: just he can't get into a groove.

952
00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:58,239
Speaker 2: But you know, yeah, you know what, I'm not that

953
00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:02,200
Speaker 2: worried about that. And I've knocked Middleton before because he's

954
00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:04,800
Speaker 2: had a lot of playoff duds. Yeah, two points. I

955
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:06,759
Speaker 2: think it was yesterday it won for He's five for

956
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:10,280
Speaker 2: twenty in the series. Would you be at all shocked

957
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:12,360
Speaker 2: if suddenly Middleton goes for a forty in one of

958
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:14,360
Speaker 2: these games? He is oddly like forty.

959
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:16,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if he went for forty.

960
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:20,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, he could have forty. But the worry is that

961
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:22,839
Speaker 3: they don't know who's gonna be on the floor at

962
00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:25,200
Speaker 3: the end of the games, if it's Bred bledsoe.

963
00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:27,200
Speaker 2: Or okay we yeah.

964
00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:29,480
Speaker 3: So they need a little affirmation, they need a little

965
00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:32,719
Speaker 3: confidence in their all star. I think I get what

966
00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:34,800
Speaker 3: you're saying. He may have he is gonna have a

967
00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:36,840
Speaker 3: breakout game, But then it wouldn't be surprising. He is

968
00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:39,520
Speaker 3: a number two that we don't ridicule because it's not

969
00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:42,239
Speaker 3: surprising when he goes from we just expect from a

970
00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:44,799
Speaker 3: twenty five thirty point night to a five point night.

971
00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:48,240
Speaker 3: And I just don't know who's gonna who's gonna produce

972
00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:50,400
Speaker 3: on this team. And if you can't count on your

973
00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:52,759
Speaker 3: all star, then hey man, we're gonna be counting on

974
00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:55,080
Speaker 3: Wesley Matthews. Man, we're gonna be counting on Pat Connon

975
00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:57,880
Speaker 3: and to let them fly. And I love your big Pat.

976
00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:01,239
Speaker 3: I love hearing about all your sports that you're really

977
00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:04,040
Speaker 3: good at. But you know, we're watching the basketball playoffs.

978
00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:07,000
Speaker 3: It's not that important that you're you can throw football

979
00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:10,080
Speaker 3: sixty five yards and that you can throw a baseball

980
00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:14,279
Speaker 3: at eighty five mph. It's just not that important right now.

981
00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:18,120
Speaker 3: And he had a good game. But again, Bodenholzer, he's

982
00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:22,279
Speaker 3: not stopping going eleven deep. He's just not stopping. It's

983
00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:24,480
Speaker 3: incredible how many guys he pulls off the bench in

984
00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:28,319
Speaker 3: this game. So I just don't know how you can say, yeah, man,

985
00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:30,440
Speaker 3: Pat Conton's going to come through, Korver is going to

986
00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:32,520
Speaker 3: come through. It's just it's you're asking a lot.

987
00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:33,160
Speaker 1: Well.

988
00:43:33,160 --> 00:43:34,960
Speaker 4: I mean, it sounds like me what you're saying is

989
00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:36,719
Speaker 4: that the Milwaukee Bucks aren't going to make it to

990
00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:37,640
Speaker 4: the NBA Finals.

991
00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:40,600
Speaker 3: It's possible. I like that. They sounds like they would.

992
00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:42,680
Speaker 4: Lose to the team that wins from the Raptors and

993
00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:45,239
Speaker 4: Celtics second round series, is what you're saying to me.

994
00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:47,239
Speaker 4: I don't know if you're saying that the number two

995
00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:50,200
Speaker 4: player on the Bucks is brook Lopez, who also was

996
00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:53,799
Speaker 4: invisible for last season's playoffs, that's not a good sign

997
00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:56,000
Speaker 4: you would like. I mean, he shot twenty nine percent

998
00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:57,879
Speaker 4: from three. Brook Lopez is out there to shoot three.

999
00:43:57,920 --> 00:44:00,120
Speaker 4: He shot thirty one percent from three this season. And

1000
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:02,799
Speaker 4: you gotta have Middleton. Middleton has to be their number

1001
00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:04,520
Speaker 4: two guy, somebody that can put the ball on the

1002
00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:06,919
Speaker 4: floor and shoot over somebody. He plays best when he's

1003
00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:09,799
Speaker 4: playing off of Giannis, no doubt about it. But it

1004
00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:13,840
Speaker 4: hasn't been money for Middleton yet so far in the bubble.

1005
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:16,400
Speaker 4: And if the Bucks are serious about going to the finals,

1006
00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:18,840
Speaker 4: he's got to be an all Star caliber player. It

1007
00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:20,680
Speaker 4: can't be Brook Lopez az your number two. I actually

1008
00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:25,040
Speaker 4: thought Bloodso was decent defensively last night, I thought, or yesterday.

1009
00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:28,440
Speaker 4: I guess his defensive intensity kind of picked up. They

1010
00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:31,200
Speaker 4: were picking up Markel Foultz at half court, which you

1011
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:33,680
Speaker 4: know he's probably not popping from half court. So it

1012
00:44:33,719 --> 00:44:35,760
Speaker 4: just gets the team a little bit more, a little

1013
00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:37,520
Speaker 4: bit more intensity, a little bit more energy, and that

1014
00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:39,560
Speaker 4: filtered out through the rest of the team. You know,

1015
00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:42,399
Speaker 4: they played a lot of players, but I guess that's

1016
00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:45,000
Speaker 4: probably Bud trying to figure out who's actually going to

1017
00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:47,760
Speaker 4: be able to rely on come closing time in games

1018
00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:48,720
Speaker 4: that are a little bit tougher.

1019
00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:52,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, let's get a my Buddy Grish bet going skeetzee.

1020
00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:54,880
Speaker 5: You want ten bucks on middleton gown for forty in

1021
00:44:54,920 --> 00:44:55,400
Speaker 5: this series?

1022
00:44:57,160 --> 00:45:01,440
Speaker 2: Give me a thirty feel about thirty get thirty five.

1023
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 2: Let's plit the difference then, Okay, I'm not I'm not

1024
00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:05,799
Speaker 2: upset with that. So he'll go for thirty five at

1025
00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:07,919
Speaker 2: least in one of the remaining games in the series

1026
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:08,600
Speaker 2: versus the Magic.

1027
00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:11,040
Speaker 5: That's what you're signing, thirty five or more. I'm signing

1028
00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:12,160
Speaker 5: thirty thirty four on.

1029
00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:15,880
Speaker 2: Okay, I'll take that. I'll tell it out. Ten bucks,

1030
00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:19,839
Speaker 2: all right, virtual handshake there, I go beautiful. Yeah, he's

1031
00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:22,239
Speaker 2: I mean, he's just a weird player like that. I mean,

1032
00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:24,080
Speaker 2: Giannis talked about it after the game. They're not worried.

1033
00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:27,359
Speaker 2: He's like, he has done this before and he will

1034
00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:29,399
Speaker 2: explode in one of these games, So I think he would.

1035
00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:31,319
Speaker 2: I think thirty five is fair. I think it's in

1036
00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:33,400
Speaker 2: playan My worry is they'll be up too big on

1037
00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:35,360
Speaker 2: the Magic. I mean, we just need the Magic to

1038
00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:38,080
Speaker 2: continue to hit threes for this to be any sort

1039
00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:41,080
Speaker 2: of series, right, to have any really close games, because

1040
00:45:41,080 --> 00:45:43,439
Speaker 2: they didn't. Bucks defense did a much better job. There's

1041
00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:45,839
Speaker 2: no doubt Vuch got his. But you were saying task

1042
00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:48,040
Speaker 2: those are a long twos for the most part, but

1043
00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:50,920
Speaker 2: Game one it was like Gary Clark hitting threes and

1044
00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:52,880
Speaker 2: is hitting threes. We went through the whole thing. Fournier

1045
00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:55,120
Speaker 2: hitting threes there he caught fire late. It's like, and

1046
00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:57,880
Speaker 2: nobody else is hitting them. There's not a chance they

1047
00:45:58,080 --> 00:46:02,040
Speaker 2: They're just outclassed. They're miss Aaron Gordon, Michael cart Williams

1048
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:03,560
Speaker 2: not playing. I mean, these guys are not that they're

1049
00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:05,719
Speaker 2: gonna help with the three point shooting on that much MCW,

1050
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:09,000
Speaker 2: but they're gonna help. The guys are capable NBA players,

1051
00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:12,200
Speaker 2: especially defensively, try and slow down. So yeah, it's just

1052
00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:13,960
Speaker 2: a rap if they can't hit three. So that's the

1053
00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:15,600
Speaker 2: only thing that can keep close. And they were one

1054
00:46:15,640 --> 00:46:17,960
Speaker 2: of sixteen I think it was in the first half

1055
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:21,200
Speaker 2: from three, and it was like, I was happy task.

1056
00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:23,279
Speaker 2: We talked about this game getting moved, I guess if

1057
00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:24,680
Speaker 2: you want to call it that. Till the six o'clock

1058
00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:28,480
Speaker 2: stop start, I was like this it was over early.

1059
00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:31,960
Speaker 2: I checked out of this one very quickly because I

1060
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:34,920
Speaker 2: was like, that's a wrap. We're one one. That's fine.

1061
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:36,440
Speaker 2: Let me do something else here. Let me take the

1062
00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:39,239
Speaker 2: garbage out, let me take the recycling out. Like that.

1063
00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:43,080
Speaker 3: Got some things done yesterday, Yeah, ten hours straight.

1064
00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:47,040
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, limit for like two weeks straight now too.

1065
00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:50,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's uh, it was Yeah, I kind of tuned

1066
00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:52,880
Speaker 3: out too. But why it was unimpressive was that the

1067
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:56,400
Speaker 3: Bucks didn't bury the Magic like the Lakers buried the Blazers.

1068
00:46:56,520 --> 00:47:01,400
Speaker 3: That's true. At least was kind of you know, it

1069
00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:04,359
Speaker 3: wasn't a twenty thirty point win like the Lakers put on.

1070
00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:07,759
Speaker 3: And I was a little disappointed that we didn't get

1071
00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:10,480
Speaker 3: some Vic Law minutes. There's a basketball player on the

1072
00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:15,000
Speaker 3: Orlando Magic named Vic Law. Haven't had one of those

1073
00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:19,000
Speaker 3: since Ac Law the fourth I don't think so. The

1074
00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:21,719
Speaker 3: new lawyer on the Magic is really disappointed that it

1075
00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:23,759
Speaker 3: wasn't that much of a blowout that we didn't get

1076
00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:25,560
Speaker 3: vic I was I just having to be looking down

1077
00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:27,200
Speaker 3: the box score as you were talking about the guys

1078
00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:30,200
Speaker 3: who weren't hitting threes on this team. Got some great names,

1079
00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:33,640
Speaker 3: Melvin Frasier, BJ Johnson, and Vic Law didn't get minutes

1080
00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:35,239
Speaker 3: unfortunately on ne Orlando Magic.

1081
00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:37,760
Speaker 2: Maybe in Game three when the Bucks beat him by fourth.

1082
00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:40,840
Speaker 2: All right, final game here Duncan Robinson, Oh man, this

1083
00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:45,160
Speaker 2: guy's on fire from Michigan Wolverine. There Trey scores twenty

1084
00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:47,960
Speaker 2: four as the Heat beat the Pacers. One O nine

1085
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:51,200
Speaker 2: to one hundred, Heat Up two OHO in this series

1086
00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:53,040
Speaker 2: versus Indiana. What was your big takeaway?

1087
00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:56,959
Speaker 4: Robinson was great, no doubt about it. But Goran, drag

1088
00:47:56,960 --> 00:47:59,560
Speaker 4: It and Jimmy Butler are awesome to watch right now.

1089
00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:01,799
Speaker 4: They are just such best buds. It feels like out

1090
00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:05,680
Speaker 4: there and Drogic is He's just been incredible in these

1091
00:48:05,719 --> 00:48:08,520
Speaker 4: first two playoff games. Twenty one of his twenty four

1092
00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:10,759
Speaker 4: points came in the second half in Game one last night,

1093
00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:13,120
Speaker 4: it was sixteen of twenty. Butler and drag Its are

1094
00:48:13,120 --> 00:48:16,480
Speaker 4: playing a lot more together. You know, Dragich has moved

1095
00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:18,920
Speaker 4: into the starting lineup for Kendrick Nunn and it's totally working.

1096
00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:21,719
Speaker 4: There's a lot of ball handling for the heat It's

1097
00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:23,719
Speaker 4: not just Jimmy Butler having to make every play. There's

1098
00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:26,600
Speaker 4: a lot of playmaking. Obviously, Drogick has been shooting the

1099
00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:30,600
Speaker 4: ball really well from outside. Robinson was on fire yesterday.

1100
00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:33,399
Speaker 4: I mean, if you're the Bucks and you're looking at

1101
00:48:33,400 --> 00:48:36,200
Speaker 4: this team and they're on fire from three every single night,

1102
00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:37,520
Speaker 4: and you've got a guy who can get to the

1103
00:48:37,520 --> 00:48:39,440
Speaker 4: free throw line in Jimmy Butler, you gotta be a

1104
00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:41,279
Speaker 4: little bit scared. Knowing that you're a team that gives

1105
00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:45,200
Speaker 4: up three pointers pretty regularly. You're a great defensive team inside,

1106
00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:47,360
Speaker 4: no doubt about it. You'll wall off the paint, but

1107
00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:49,520
Speaker 4: you're gonna give up some baskets and you know you're

1108
00:48:49,520 --> 00:48:51,960
Speaker 4: gonna give up threes. Right now, the Heat are shooting

1109
00:48:51,960 --> 00:48:54,439
Speaker 4: the ball really well. Will it continue for the rest

1110
00:48:54,480 --> 00:48:57,200
Speaker 4: of this playoff series, We'll see they have some cold stretches,

1111
00:48:57,200 --> 00:48:59,840
Speaker 4: and will it continue into round two also a question.

1112
00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:03,440
Speaker 4: But right now, drag and Butler, they look like two

1113
00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:05,800
Speaker 4: closers on the same team, and that's that's a scary

1114
00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:07,000
Speaker 4: thing to deal with in the playoffs.

1115
00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:10,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, I actually wrote that down in my notes here

1116
00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:13,880
Speaker 2: are we Have we given Spolster enough credit for opting

1117
00:49:13,920 --> 00:49:17,520
Speaker 2: to start Dragic over Kendrick Nunn, who was Miami's starting

1118
00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:20,200
Speaker 2: point guard all season long to the fact now to

1119
00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:22,320
Speaker 2: the point where like Noney isn't even playing in these playoffs,

1120
00:49:23,400 --> 00:49:26,200
Speaker 2: And I think none helped him out in that decision

1121
00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:29,600
Speaker 2: by not playing well in the bubble, and I know

1122
00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:31,840
Speaker 2: he had some very very rough games down there shooting

1123
00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:33,279
Speaker 2: the ball wise, and then it was like maybe it

1124
00:49:33,320 --> 00:49:35,520
Speaker 2: was like easy to go with the vet in Dragis,

1125
00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:37,839
Speaker 2: but that was a move that I'm not sure, like

1126
00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:41,239
Speaker 2: does Budenholzer make that move? I don't think so, or

1127
00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:45,080
Speaker 2: not even play them very unlikely. And uh yeah, Fiba

1128
00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:47,279
Speaker 2: dragch As we talked about after game one. He's been

1129
00:49:47,320 --> 00:49:51,839
Speaker 2: incredible every time that, you know, anytime the other team

1130
00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:53,600
Speaker 2: and the Pacers are putting up one hell of a fight,

1131
00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:56,080
Speaker 2: especially without Sabonis. This would be a much much more

1132
00:49:56,080 --> 00:49:58,040
Speaker 2: competitive series if he's there. But they're still even in

1133
00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:02,120
Speaker 2: these games. But it's Dragas or Butler of course, hitting

1134
00:50:02,200 --> 00:50:05,080
Speaker 2: like those timely buckets, those ones that stop the run

1135
00:50:05,120 --> 00:50:07,120
Speaker 2: for the other team, the one that ice is the game.

1136
00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:11,479
Speaker 2: And drug it's just like his, you know, ability to drive,

1137
00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:13,080
Speaker 2: especially when you have all these shooters. Have you got

1138
00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:14,799
Speaker 2: Duncan romson O, there, you got tether Hero. There are

1139
00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:16,480
Speaker 2: times you got to just stay on those guys that

1140
00:50:16,520 --> 00:50:18,040
Speaker 2: are just gonna be on the perimeter, but someone else

1141
00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:20,000
Speaker 2: needs to get inside a little bit, create off the dribble,

1142
00:50:20,040 --> 00:50:21,640
Speaker 2: and Drugs can do that with all those little flip

1143
00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:24,640
Speaker 2: shots and stuff like that. He's been awesome to me,

1144
00:50:25,080 --> 00:50:27,839
Speaker 2: and the heat looked great. I mean, I was worried

1145
00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:30,400
Speaker 2: about the Pacers chances in the series from the start,

1146
00:50:30,600 --> 00:50:32,759
Speaker 2: just a bad matchup. And I still think this is

1147
00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:34,520
Speaker 2: going to be well. Now, it could be a sweep

1148
00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:36,759
Speaker 2: Browl we know, but five is still the likely I'll

1149
00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:39,279
Speaker 2: come to me. I don't know what you think, Lee, Yeah.

1150
00:50:39,280 --> 00:50:42,280
Speaker 5: I mean, I think the pacers that are our class

1151
00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:43,360
Speaker 5: and it's just not a good matchup.

1152
00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:43,760
Speaker 6: And TJ.

1153
00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:46,480
Speaker 5: Warren has not been able to reproduce the form that

1154
00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:48,759
Speaker 5: got him on the All NBA First Team in the

1155
00:50:48,760 --> 00:50:51,239
Speaker 5: bubble there, and I think again, like Jimmy Butler has

1156
00:50:51,239 --> 00:50:54,040
Speaker 5: stepped up. Now it's not just Butler versus TJ. Warren,

1157
00:50:54,080 --> 00:50:56,239
Speaker 5: but you're seeing the difference in class of the player.

1158
00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:59,280
Speaker 5: Like Jimmy Butler is again leading his team and leading

1159
00:50:59,280 --> 00:51:02,000
Speaker 5: by example and showing doing all those things, hitting those threes.

1160
00:51:02,040 --> 00:51:04,240
Speaker 5: He's not a great three point shoot, hit another two yesterday.

1161
00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:07,040
Speaker 5: You know, he steps up to the moment. And I

1162
00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:09,319
Speaker 5: think that's that's what's really important, is that that's what

1163
00:51:09,440 --> 00:51:11,160
Speaker 5: a leader does. And you know, when you get off

1164
00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:13,120
Speaker 5: to a hot start like Duncan Robinson, I think he's first.

1165
00:51:13,160 --> 00:51:15,400
Speaker 5: I think it was their first three possessions, there were threes.

1166
00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:17,600
Speaker 5: You know, that sort of sets the tone that You're like,

1167
00:51:17,880 --> 00:51:19,960
Speaker 5: we've got more than just one or two guys on

1168
00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:21,480
Speaker 5: this team who can get a basket, and we've got

1169
00:51:21,480 --> 00:51:24,880
Speaker 5: different ways to score, which for the for the paces,

1170
00:51:25,239 --> 00:51:26,799
Speaker 5: it just doesn't feel like that. It feels like they

1171
00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:29,880
Speaker 5: have to grind out so many baskets and that I think.

1172
00:51:29,960 --> 00:51:31,400
Speaker 5: I mean, this was only a nine point game in

1173
00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:34,200
Speaker 5: the end, but you know, it didn't have a lot.

1174
00:51:34,440 --> 00:51:36,560
Speaker 5: This one wasn't all that captivating though, because I just

1175
00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:39,120
Speaker 5: sort of felt that Miami were in control. You know,

1176
00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:41,640
Speaker 5: they set the pace and they sort of just they

1177
00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:44,640
Speaker 5: just sort of kept that buffer I thought from Indiana.

1178
00:51:44,680 --> 00:51:46,839
Speaker 5: I just it just didn't feel like Indiana like they

1179
00:51:46,840 --> 00:51:49,359
Speaker 5: were working so hard to sort of stay within the game.

1180
00:51:49,440 --> 00:51:51,120
Speaker 5: But it was like Miami can kind of take this

1181
00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:53,719
Speaker 5: anytime they want. And it's going to be interesting to

1182
00:51:53,719 --> 00:51:55,879
Speaker 5: see if Nate McMillen has any adjustments in the next

1183
00:51:55,920 --> 00:51:57,960
Speaker 5: two or three well, you know, two or three games,

1184
00:51:58,000 --> 00:52:01,240
Speaker 5: I guess. But I feel like my he's pretty dominant

1185
00:52:01,239 --> 00:52:03,799
Speaker 5: so far, and they know that. I mean, bam, again,

1186
00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:06,440
Speaker 5: he didn't have a great game yesterday, but he's just

1187
00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:09,200
Speaker 5: so impactful. I think at both ends he wants to

1188
00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:11,319
Speaker 5: be because he can jump so high he can get

1189
00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:13,680
Speaker 5: to every ball defensively, and then on the offensive end,

1190
00:52:13,880 --> 00:52:15,440
Speaker 5: they've got that option to run the pick and roll

1191
00:52:15,520 --> 00:52:17,319
Speaker 5: or he's got that little flip up shot too, So

1192
00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:20,240
Speaker 5: they've got so many weapons there that I just don't

1193
00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:23,600
Speaker 5: think that Indiana can compete with tasks.

1194
00:52:23,600 --> 00:52:26,359
Speaker 3: Anything to add to this one, well, sure, I think

1195
00:52:26,600 --> 00:52:29,439
Speaker 3: the moves just that you mentioned about Kendrick Nunn who

1196
00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:31,360
Speaker 3: did leave the bubble and then kind came back and

1197
00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:35,719
Speaker 3: Eric Spolsher decided, Nah, we're going with Gordon Drags maybe

1198
00:52:35,760 --> 00:52:38,360
Speaker 3: a little bit more veteran presence, a little bit better defensively,

1199
00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:40,200
Speaker 3: which I guess is saying something about Kendrick Nunn. And

1200
00:52:40,200 --> 00:52:43,040
Speaker 3: also Meyers Leonard who is a starter basically all year

1201
00:52:43,080 --> 00:52:47,279
Speaker 3: for this team, and he said, no, thank you, We're

1202
00:52:47,320 --> 00:52:50,400
Speaker 3: going to go sort of stretch four guys around instead

1203
00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:52,759
Speaker 3: of having Bam and Myers on the floor. I think

1204
00:52:52,840 --> 00:52:54,840
Speaker 3: a key was and Trey sort of mentioned about the

1205
00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:58,759
Speaker 3: paint being nice and open. That happens when you don't

1206
00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:02,040
Speaker 3: play two bigs, and I think that's important for Jimmy

1207
00:53:02,040 --> 00:53:05,080
Speaker 3: Butler to get in there. And yeah, just to talk

1208
00:53:05,080 --> 00:53:09,080
Speaker 3: about Duncan Robinson, who was a Scorcher out there hitting

1209
00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:13,400
Speaker 3: seven threes, and I'm sure these pacers and Nate McMillan

1210
00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:16,120
Speaker 3: have watched game tape and they know the Schumann stat

1211
00:53:16,160 --> 00:53:21,160
Speaker 3: that Duncan Robinson is on fire every single game. He

1212
00:53:21,239 --> 00:53:22,839
Speaker 3: hits a lot of his threes in the first quarter,

1213
00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:25,719
Speaker 3: the first few minutes even. That's what they do, and

1214
00:53:26,120 --> 00:53:29,040
Speaker 3: it's obviously part of the game plan because he saw

1215
00:53:29,160 --> 00:53:31,799
Speaker 3: Jake Crowder get an offensive rebound, and I've never seen

1216
00:53:32,120 --> 00:53:34,280
Speaker 3: Jay Crowder do this, but something in his bag where

1217
00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:37,319
Speaker 3: he was like looking at the rim and fired it

1218
00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:39,680
Speaker 3: just to a spot where Duncan Robinson was supposed to be.

1219
00:53:39,719 --> 00:53:42,800
Speaker 3: It was a beautiful pass. They're going to Duncan Robinson

1220
00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:45,600
Speaker 3: every single possession. I think Victor oldupa who we talk

1221
00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:48,000
Speaker 3: about and that, you know, a decent offensive game, his

1222
00:53:48,360 --> 00:53:51,160
Speaker 3: best offensive game in a while. I think maybe he

1223
00:53:51,360 --> 00:53:54,319
Speaker 3: was thinking about the offensive end and coming back from

1224
00:53:54,320 --> 00:53:56,279
Speaker 3: that eye injury, or just he's just not the same

1225
00:53:56,280 --> 00:53:58,520
Speaker 3: time the defensive end either. And not to put Duncan

1226
00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:02,200
Speaker 3: Robinson's game all on old depot, but it hurt. Oladipo

1227
00:54:02,280 --> 00:54:04,759
Speaker 3: was a step slow guarding Duncan Robinson. They're doing a

1228
00:54:04,760 --> 00:54:07,360
Speaker 3: good job getting him open. Bam Adebayo is great at that,

1229
00:54:07,920 --> 00:54:11,840
Speaker 3: and once you get Duncan going, he don't stop. He

1230
00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:14,759
Speaker 3: had eight shots, they're all from three point land. You

1231
00:54:15,360 --> 00:54:18,800
Speaker 3: maybe Oladipo was, you know, thinking about saving his energy

1232
00:54:18,800 --> 00:54:21,120
Speaker 3: for the offensive end because he is a great defensive player.

1233
00:54:21,120 --> 00:54:24,800
Speaker 3: But that that hurt them big time. If Duncan Robinson

1234
00:54:24,840 --> 00:54:27,640
Speaker 3: isn't hot, if you can Kyle Korver him, like Kyle

1235
00:54:27,680 --> 00:54:30,840
Speaker 3: Korver has been sort of taking out a series in

1236
00:54:30,880 --> 00:54:34,239
Speaker 3: the past, that's that's big. That is big for the

1237
00:54:34,280 --> 00:54:36,640
Speaker 3: Miami Heat team. He had a lot of their threes.

1238
00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:40,080
Speaker 3: They're not an incredible shooting three point team, and so

1239
00:54:40,440 --> 00:54:42,799
Speaker 3: you got to take him away from the get go.

1240
00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:45,680
Speaker 2: Who wants some trivia when it comes to the three

1241
00:54:45,680 --> 00:54:47,839
Speaker 2: point shooting there from Duncan Robinson, Lee, I know you're

1242
00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:51,280
Speaker 2: shaking your head. Yeah, I'll do it like this. Dan Feldman,

1243
00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:53,440
Speaker 2: NBC Sports coming through it. This one. That's a fun one.

1244
00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:57,400
Speaker 2: I believe only six players in NBA history have attempted

1245
00:54:57,880 --> 00:55:01,080
Speaker 2: more threes in a playoff game than Duncan did with

1246
00:55:01,080 --> 00:55:04,560
Speaker 2: without multiple misses. Right, So don'tkan rob goes seven for eight.

1247
00:55:04,719 --> 00:55:07,160
Speaker 2: There's six other guys that went either eight for nine

1248
00:55:07,239 --> 00:55:09,319
Speaker 2: or in one case, nine for ten in a playoff game.

1249
00:55:09,480 --> 00:55:11,799
Speaker 2: I'm going to give you the series and see if

1250
00:55:11,840 --> 00:55:14,479
Speaker 2: you can get the player. Okay, the series. We'll start

1251
00:55:14,480 --> 00:55:17,000
Speaker 2: with the guy that went nine for ten twenty eleven

1252
00:55:17,120 --> 00:55:24,839
Speaker 2: Mavericks Lakers. Who's the player? Yeah, it's an old guy.

1253
00:55:25,800 --> 00:55:32,120
Speaker 2: Old got a lot of daughters. Give me Jackson, No, no, daughters,

1254
00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:36,520
Speaker 2: a lot of I believe you. Jason Terry, Jason Terry Head.

1255
00:55:36,920 --> 00:55:39,480
Speaker 2: All right, this guy we just got done talking about.

1256
00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:41,480
Speaker 2: It's gonna be a hell of a giveaway. He needs

1257
00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:44,640
Speaker 2: to step up in his series. But twenty fourteen Clippers

1258
00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:51,560
Speaker 2: thunder Chris Paul for nine, All right, this guy. Twenty

1259
00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:59,520
Speaker 2: thirteen Warriors Spurs series, Klay Thompson, thank you. Uh okay,

1260
00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:03,560
Speaker 2: these got a tough for herely two thousand and nine Nuggets,

1261
00:56:04,160 --> 00:56:07,160
Speaker 2: New Orleans Hornets. But think about the Nuggets team eight

1262
00:56:07,239 --> 00:56:13,440
Speaker 2: for nine? No, no, no, this guy's a borderline Hall

1263
00:56:13,440 --> 00:56:15,080
Speaker 2: of fame Chuck.

1264
00:56:16,360 --> 00:56:18,120
Speaker 4: I was going with a Shawn Leonard there with the

1265
00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:19,000
Speaker 4: Nuggets connection.

1266
00:56:19,920 --> 00:56:23,279
Speaker 2: Two more. Two thousand and seven Spurs Nuggets series. Guys,

1267
00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:25,000
Speaker 2: go guy goes eight for nine.

1268
00:56:25,840 --> 00:56:27,400
Speaker 3: Top four.

1269
00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:35,319
Speaker 2: Seven No, Gary Gary Neal he's a Spur. Yeah, I mean,

1270
00:56:35,360 --> 00:56:37,240
Speaker 2: I don't remember. This guy is a three point shooter

1271
00:56:37,520 --> 00:56:38,920
Speaker 2: like Abricio Oberto.

1272
00:56:42,400 --> 00:56:44,720
Speaker 4: You know this player, he was a good player, Sean

1273
00:56:44,920 --> 00:56:46,960
Speaker 4: Elliott's we're talking Spurs, right.

1274
00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:49,680
Speaker 2: Spurs, We're talking Spurs. Roger Mason, he's a two time

1275
00:56:49,719 --> 00:56:53,960
Speaker 2: All Star All Star. Okay, I averaged fifteen points per

1276
00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:55,759
Speaker 2: game in his career. He played over a thousand games.

1277
00:56:55,760 --> 00:56:57,640
Speaker 2: That's pretty good. I just I just didn't think it

1278
00:56:57,719 --> 00:56:59,160
Speaker 2: as a three point shooter. So that was it must

1279
00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:01,000
Speaker 2: have been a great game. So he won a title

1280
00:57:01,120 --> 00:57:03,280
Speaker 2: obviously that year with the Spurs.

1281
00:57:03,400 --> 00:57:05,239
Speaker 6: Two time o Stock? Who was he an old stock

1282
00:57:05,280 --> 00:57:06,080
Speaker 6: with will I give it away?

1283
00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:10,560
Speaker 2: He probably was an All Star with the monogenobly, No,

1284
00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:12,759
Speaker 2: Well I could try and find out.

1285
00:57:12,880 --> 00:57:14,080
Speaker 4: Oh boy, hell boy.

1286
00:57:14,080 --> 00:57:18,360
Speaker 2: Come on, guys, come on, Willie Anderson. You know it's amazing.

1287
00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:22,440
Speaker 2: What Okay, this guy's nickname is? What my nickname is?

1288
00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:24,600
Speaker 2: For dollars? What?

1289
00:57:25,040 --> 00:57:32,720
Speaker 3: Michael Finley, Michael, I think you're still playing it? Two thousand?

1290
00:57:33,640 --> 00:57:38,160
Speaker 2: What a title and final one? Well, this guy's got

1291
00:57:38,240 --> 00:57:42,160
Speaker 2: a tie to the music industry. Nineteen ninety seven Hawks

1292
00:57:42,200 --> 00:57:45,640
Speaker 2: Cucko versus the Bulls. This guy went eight for nine.

1293
00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:47,720
Speaker 3: Industry.

1294
00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:51,680
Speaker 4: Well, Joe Smith, No, no, no.

1295
00:57:51,760 --> 00:57:53,520
Speaker 2: He's a guard. He was a he was an All Star.

1296
00:57:53,600 --> 00:57:55,120
Speaker 2: I think did he make an All Star team?

1297
00:57:56,400 --> 00:57:56,560
Speaker 4: You know?

1298
00:57:56,720 --> 00:58:01,760
Speaker 2: And you know something happened in his h Yeah, a

1299
00:58:01,760 --> 00:58:03,439
Speaker 2: little ahead of his time when it came in the NBA.

1300
00:58:03,520 --> 00:58:05,120
Speaker 2: Guy go, I could shoot the three, had a couple

1301
00:58:05,120 --> 00:58:07,840
Speaker 2: of years. I think he dominated when the line was shorter.

1302
00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:10,920
Speaker 2: If I'm not mistaken, maybe yeah, yeah, there you go.

1303
00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:12,480
Speaker 6: Good one man.

1304
00:58:12,520 --> 00:58:14,560
Speaker 2: I have done trivia in so I was a little rusty.

1305
00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:17,400
Speaker 2: All right, Let's get to tweet of the night.

1306
00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:20,640
Speaker 3: Tweet out the Knight.

1307
00:58:21,400 --> 00:58:26,880
Speaker 2: Wow, all right, I mean we don't need to overthink

1308
00:58:26,920 --> 00:58:29,560
Speaker 2: this one. Lakers running away with the game. Last night

1309
00:58:29,760 --> 00:58:33,560
Speaker 2: ESPN's Mark Jackson. He began discussing some of George Carl's

1310
00:58:33,600 --> 00:58:37,640
Speaker 2: former teams and the perceived lack of defense because he

1311
00:58:37,720 --> 00:58:41,120
Speaker 2: was talking about Mellow having played for the Nuggets under Carl. Well,

1312
00:58:41,240 --> 00:58:44,200
Speaker 2: George Carl, excuse me, you know heard about this either

1313
00:58:44,240 --> 00:58:47,560
Speaker 2: watching the game or someone texted him. He tweeted, I

1314
00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:51,200
Speaker 2: heard at Mark Jackson thirteen, Yeah, y absinate least is

1315
00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:54,720
Speaker 2: taking shots at my defensive coaching. During tonight's broadcast, remind me.

1316
00:58:54,880 --> 00:58:58,160
Speaker 2: How many All Star teams did you coach? Mark? How

1317
00:58:58,240 --> 00:59:02,040
Speaker 2: many dpo wise, how many finals appearances? And then the kicker,

1318
00:59:02,560 --> 00:59:07,480
Speaker 2: how many of my teams became dynasties right after I left? Wow? Okay,

1319
00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:11,680
Speaker 2: well right before midnight? Mark Jackson after the broadcast, I

1320
00:59:11,720 --> 00:59:14,479
Speaker 2: guess right near the end, he responded with the quote

1321
00:59:14,480 --> 00:59:17,880
Speaker 2: tweet read quote TEA wasn't even thinking of you, By

1322
00:59:17,960 --> 00:59:19,800
Speaker 2: the way, I never lost to you in the playoffs

1323
00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:22,760
Speaker 2: as a player as a coach. God bless you and yours.

1324
00:59:24,160 --> 00:59:27,040
Speaker 2: So yeah, a little coach beef here, former coach beef

1325
00:59:27,120 --> 00:59:30,280
Speaker 2: between Carl and Mark Jackson. I loved Tom Ziller's breakdown

1326
00:59:30,400 --> 00:59:33,560
Speaker 2: of that response from Mark Jackson in his newsletter today. One,

1327
00:59:33,960 --> 00:59:35,080
Speaker 2: I wasn't talking about you.

1328
00:59:35,480 --> 00:59:35,680
Speaker 4: Two.

1329
00:59:36,120 --> 00:59:38,360
Speaker 2: If I was talking about you, just know that I

1330
00:59:38,440 --> 00:59:40,160
Speaker 2: beat your ass in the playoffs as a player and

1331
00:59:40,240 --> 00:59:45,600
Speaker 2: a coach and three blessings when he respond But yeah,

1332
00:59:45,640 --> 00:59:47,400
Speaker 2: this is like sort of like I don't know, just

1333
00:59:47,480 --> 00:59:49,240
Speaker 2: out of nowhere. And I know George Carl's been coming

1334
00:59:49,320 --> 00:59:52,360
Speaker 2: up a lot here on the broadcast. Leave had your

1335
00:59:52,360 --> 00:59:54,000
Speaker 2: eye on all his tweets. I think task has too,

1336
00:59:54,120 --> 00:59:58,320
Speaker 2: so dropping some spiciness there last night. Maybe ye maybe

1337
00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:01,160
Speaker 2: overreacting a little bit, but I guess maybe they hate

1338
01:00:01,160 --> 01:00:01,480
Speaker 2: each other.

1339
01:00:01,520 --> 01:00:01,840
Speaker 3: I don't know.

1340
01:00:02,320 --> 01:00:03,760
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean you wonder about the beas.

1341
01:00:03,800 --> 01:00:05,720
Speaker 5: Of course, that goes back to the Nuggets and Warriors

1342
01:00:05,760 --> 01:00:08,560
Speaker 5: series when the Warriors upset the Nuggets in I guess

1343
01:00:08,680 --> 01:00:14,280
Speaker 5: twenty something, thirteen or fourteen, I can't remember. Yeah, when

1344
01:00:14,360 --> 01:00:18,120
Speaker 5: Mark Jackson apparently had the intel from andreagudlight right, yeah,

1345
01:00:18,360 --> 01:00:20,680
Speaker 5: in that series, and then Iggy joined the Warriors the

1346
01:00:20,760 --> 01:00:23,560
Speaker 5: next season. So I think there's probably a little bit

1347
01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:25,200
Speaker 5: a bit in the still from that series, if you

1348
01:00:25,320 --> 01:00:25,640
Speaker 5: ask me.

1349
01:00:26,600 --> 01:00:28,800
Speaker 3: I love it. I love seeing the fact that a

1350
01:00:28,920 --> 01:00:32,200
Speaker 3: sixty nine year old man can get on Twitter and

1351
01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:35,400
Speaker 3: get into a scrap everybody. Now I feel a lot

1352
01:00:35,480 --> 01:00:38,560
Speaker 3: better about any of my Twitter scraps because you're not

1353
01:00:38,880 --> 01:00:41,240
Speaker 3: just because of your age, you're not free of being

1354
01:00:41,520 --> 01:00:44,840
Speaker 3: reeled in to a Twitter beef. Everybody can get into

1355
01:00:44,880 --> 01:00:45,520
Speaker 3: a Twitter.

1356
01:00:45,320 --> 01:00:47,360
Speaker 2: Beef tray anything to add to this.

1357
01:00:48,560 --> 01:00:50,520
Speaker 4: I don't really know whose side I'm on on this one.

1358
01:00:50,640 --> 01:00:51,640
Speaker 4: It's a tough call.

1359
01:00:51,720 --> 01:00:51,880
Speaker 2: You know.

1360
01:00:52,040 --> 01:00:55,680
Speaker 4: The Warriors definitely turned into a dynasty once Mark Jackson

1361
01:00:55,840 --> 01:00:58,800
Speaker 4: was gone, and Steve Kerr was like, you know, it

1362
01:00:58,960 --> 01:01:01,760
Speaker 4: was great posting up Jermaine O'Neil all those times. But

1363
01:01:02,440 --> 01:01:05,080
Speaker 4: what if we let these two guys shoot threes from

1364
01:01:05,120 --> 01:01:05,760
Speaker 4: the outside.

1365
01:01:05,800 --> 01:01:06,439
Speaker 3: That might work.

1366
01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:08,280
Speaker 4: On the other hand, you got George Carl who's kind

1367
01:01:08,280 --> 01:01:10,640
Speaker 4: of famous for coming up short in the playoffs and

1368
01:01:10,920 --> 01:01:14,440
Speaker 4: getting ushered out of whatever coaching spot he's in because

1369
01:01:14,480 --> 01:01:17,480
Speaker 4: his players have turned on him. I guess this is

1370
01:01:17,520 --> 01:01:20,840
Speaker 4: a double loss or a double win, because I'm gonna

1371
01:01:20,840 --> 01:01:23,920
Speaker 4: definitely start using people's first names in tweets when I'm

1372
01:01:23,960 --> 01:01:26,040
Speaker 4: calling him out. You'd be like, uh, yeah, that's a

1373
01:01:26,120 --> 01:01:26,640
Speaker 4: really good point.

1374
01:01:26,680 --> 01:01:27,640
Speaker 2: You made their task.

1375
01:01:27,840 --> 01:01:29,960
Speaker 4: God bless you and yours. Yeah.

1376
01:01:30,200 --> 01:01:34,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, when you say God bless your heart, you really

1377
01:01:34,480 --> 01:01:36,400
Speaker 3: you really gave it to me. I think what Mark

1378
01:01:36,480 --> 01:01:41,280
Speaker 3: Jackson should have done. It is just snake emoji. Oh wow,

1379
01:01:41,720 --> 01:01:44,200
Speaker 3: I got mellow has done that to George Carl before, right,

1380
01:01:44,400 --> 01:01:44,680
Speaker 3: A lot of.

1381
01:01:44,680 --> 01:01:46,800
Speaker 2: People it was DeMarcus Cousins, was it?

1382
01:01:46,880 --> 01:01:47,000
Speaker 4: Oh?

1383
01:01:47,080 --> 01:01:48,920
Speaker 3: I think I keep that. I thought, I say Thomas

1384
01:01:48,960 --> 01:01:51,000
Speaker 3: did it, but I guess not. I guess yeah, well,

1385
01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:51,480
Speaker 3: I guess it.

1386
01:01:52,240 --> 01:01:54,080
Speaker 2: Yeah. That's the weird thing with this one. It's like

1387
01:01:54,200 --> 01:01:56,880
Speaker 2: both of these guys not the most well liked in

1388
01:01:57,000 --> 01:01:58,760
Speaker 2: a lot of NBA circle I'd say even a lot

1389
01:01:58,800 --> 01:02:02,840
Speaker 2: of NBA fans or something, you know, fan bases teams. Yeah,

1390
01:02:02,920 --> 01:02:05,560
Speaker 2: this is a strange one, but let's hear how you're

1391
01:02:05,600 --> 01:02:09,000
Speaker 2: grading this one. What's your scorecard? You're hellwani on this one?

1392
01:02:09,080 --> 01:02:11,360
Speaker 2: What's the scorecard with these? The coach beef or the

1393
01:02:11,400 --> 01:02:14,520
Speaker 2: Twitter beef between George carl and Mark Jackson, Let's know

1394
01:02:14,560 --> 01:02:16,640
Speaker 2: on Twitter at least at no dunkstick. All right, about

1395
01:02:16,680 --> 01:02:19,160
Speaker 2: to wrap this up, but the games continue task We're

1396
01:02:19,200 --> 01:02:22,360
Speaker 2: into I guess game threes today for four of these

1397
01:02:22,400 --> 01:02:24,000
Speaker 2: series where we're looking at what's the game of the day.

1398
01:02:25,160 --> 01:02:29,400
Speaker 3: So nice quadruple header again, the quads don't stop. Toronto

1399
01:02:29,480 --> 01:02:32,600
Speaker 3: Brooklyn on NBA TV. Then we get Denver Jazz should

1400
01:02:32,600 --> 01:02:35,520
Speaker 3: be a juicy one, and then yeah, that's part of

1401
01:02:35,560 --> 01:02:39,240
Speaker 3: TNT continuing with Boston Philly on TNT and then Clippers

1402
01:02:39,320 --> 01:02:42,560
Speaker 3: Dallas on TNT. Baby the best series going on. But

1403
01:02:42,600 --> 01:02:44,680
Speaker 3: I want to focus on Boston Philly because I have

1404
01:02:44,720 --> 01:02:48,320
Speaker 3: a question for you guys. I assume the Philadelphia seventy

1405
01:02:48,400 --> 01:02:50,960
Speaker 3: six ers are not going to put forth a great effort.

1406
01:02:51,080 --> 01:02:53,400
Speaker 3: I don't think that they have it in them to

1407
01:02:54,000 --> 01:02:56,920
Speaker 3: keep on fighting when it seems like the series and

1408
01:02:57,040 --> 01:03:01,040
Speaker 3: the season is done for them. Now, guys break huddles

1409
01:03:01,280 --> 01:03:03,120
Speaker 3: when they know it's over. They're down three to zero.

1410
01:03:03,160 --> 01:03:05,560
Speaker 3: The joke is that they break it with one two

1411
01:03:05,680 --> 01:03:09,800
Speaker 3: three can coon, right. But I don't think guys are

1412
01:03:10,040 --> 01:03:12,840
Speaker 3: going to be doing that this year because no disrespect

1413
01:03:12,880 --> 01:03:14,760
Speaker 3: to the country of Mexico. I just don't think people

1414
01:03:14,800 --> 01:03:17,520
Speaker 3: are going to Cancun after the season is done. They're

1415
01:03:17,560 --> 01:03:20,880
Speaker 3: going home. There's a coronavirus, there's a pandemic happening. It's

1416
01:03:20,920 --> 01:03:22,840
Speaker 3: more likely they're going home. So my question to you,

1417
01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:26,320
Speaker 3: questioned everybody out there on YouTube, what do you say

1418
01:03:26,360 --> 01:03:27,960
Speaker 3: when you break a huddle when you know it's done?

1419
01:03:28,840 --> 01:03:32,640
Speaker 3: One two three, We're going home? One two three primary residencies,

1420
01:03:33,320 --> 01:03:39,200
Speaker 3: primary residents probably one two three. What do you think, pop.

1421
01:03:39,320 --> 01:03:40,760
Speaker 4: Because the bubble's over for this team?

1422
01:03:43,360 --> 01:03:47,080
Speaker 2: What about just one two three by they're tired of

1423
01:03:47,160 --> 01:03:49,280
Speaker 2: each other, They're gonna be leaving each other, They're not

1424
01:03:49,440 --> 01:03:50,320
Speaker 2: going anywhere together.

1425
01:03:51,080 --> 01:03:54,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, one two three home quarantine. According to Sarah Gray,

1426
01:03:54,720 --> 01:03:55,800
Speaker 3: that's good. That's good.

1427
01:03:55,920 --> 01:03:58,320
Speaker 2: That's one two three home quarantine.

1428
01:03:57,920 --> 01:04:01,840
Speaker 3: Warned, one two three family time. According to Zach.

1429
01:04:01,760 --> 01:04:05,840
Speaker 6: There's one two three go vote. How about that?

1430
01:04:06,720 --> 01:04:08,840
Speaker 2: Oh that's nice though, very nice.

1431
01:04:08,960 --> 01:04:10,880
Speaker 3: Maybe the Mics pick it up. Good stuff.

1432
01:04:11,080 --> 01:04:13,959
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, so that you know just one thing about

1433
01:04:14,000 --> 01:04:16,000
Speaker 2: that game. The line on that one. I know we're

1434
01:04:16,000 --> 01:04:19,040
Speaker 2: not doing to pick them payoff anymore and pick them games.

1435
01:04:20,120 --> 01:04:22,280
Speaker 2: That line is not as big as you think it

1436
01:04:22,320 --> 01:04:26,280
Speaker 2: would be. I thought, because yeah, okay, it's in Philly, right,

1437
01:04:26,400 --> 01:04:30,240
Speaker 2: it's their home court. Now they're virtual fans their music.

1438
01:04:30,640 --> 01:04:32,439
Speaker 2: But I think the Celtics last I saw a task

1439
01:04:32,480 --> 01:04:35,120
Speaker 2: were favored by five and a half. It's not a lot,

1440
01:04:37,520 --> 01:04:40,600
Speaker 2: which makes me think, what do they know? I think

1441
01:04:40,760 --> 01:04:42,920
Speaker 2: I don't know. For some reason, I think the Sixers

1442
01:04:42,960 --> 01:04:45,880
Speaker 2: cover that line, maybe even if they lose. Maybe this

1443
01:04:46,000 --> 01:04:48,600
Speaker 2: is the one fight they've got into them. But I

1444
01:04:48,720 --> 01:04:51,640
Speaker 2: just thought that line was strange, that bigger than me

1445
01:04:51,760 --> 01:04:53,960
Speaker 2: was after what we've just seen how well the Celtics

1446
01:04:54,000 --> 01:04:56,440
Speaker 2: have played and how poorly the Sixers have played. Look

1447
01:04:56,520 --> 01:04:57,520
Speaker 2: like they're checked out and all that.

1448
01:04:57,800 --> 01:05:00,280
Speaker 4: I know, Philly's bringing the booze with them. To bring

1449
01:05:00,320 --> 01:05:01,520
Speaker 4: the booze, you can't beat the booze.

1450
01:05:01,960 --> 01:05:03,960
Speaker 2: Oh right, right, I forgot about the booz They're gonna

1451
01:05:03,960 --> 01:05:07,080
Speaker 2: be pumping in there. Booze, I'm taking Philly to cover that.

1452
01:05:07,360 --> 01:05:08,160
Speaker 2: Where is that sound?

1453
01:05:08,240 --> 01:05:08,280
Speaker 6: So?

1454
01:05:08,480 --> 01:05:10,600
Speaker 2: I don't know why something something's going on there. It's

1455
01:05:11,120 --> 01:05:12,920
Speaker 2: a little fishy to me. But all right, those are

1456
01:05:12,960 --> 01:05:15,800
