Speaker 1: moment perhaps the entire Norway chess event. The rumor is

Speaker 2: not me.

31
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 3: Not much out there. People aren't using email.

32
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 2: I don't think interesting. So should just tweet them in

33
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,120
Speaker 2: okay at no dunk saying guy and see in the end.

34
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 2: Or you can leave them. It's a little more difficult

35
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:42,959
Speaker 2: to find the good ones and pull them out, but

36
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 2: leave them in the YouTube comments too, if you are

37
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 2: watching later.

38
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:51,560
Speaker 3: I guess Twitter too, the search function yeah, oh yeah, Gabbage,

39
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:52,559
Speaker 3: it used to be good.

40
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I can't stand. I mean it's been well, well

41
00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 2: a little bit, but uh. I hate waking up in

42
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 2: the morning and then like seeing a tweet and you're like, oh, wow,

43
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 2: that's interesting, and then realizing it's like twenty three hours

44
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 2: old or something like that. I hate that as well.

45
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,040
Speaker 3: You can change it real quick, yeah.

46
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:11,480

47
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:16,880

00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:30,680
Speaker 3: They're within a bunch of others in the cubby. Well,

79
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 3: I'm not a wrinkle, I'm not an iron man. I'm

80
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:37,240

Speaker 3: the flow. Are you not a.

82
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 2: Wash your new T shirt sweater pants before wearing it? Person?

83
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 2: Because Nora and I get into huge arguments about this.

84
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 2: She says yes she does, and I said, no way.

85
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 2: I'm like, give me the chemicals. Give me the break

86
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 2: down in our house too. Whatever chemicals they're putting on

87
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 2: it when you buy it from the store makes it

88
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 2: look the freshnest it will. Yeah, I want to wash.

89
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, but it's stinks.

90
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 2: I stink. It wasn't matter, all right, let's uh, let's

91
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 2: sit into today's show, ed Z eighty Little Monday podcast here. Already,

92
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 2: we got winners and losers on the NBA weekend. That's

93
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,479
Speaker 2: what we do on Monday. But first, three weggies over

94
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:19,839
Speaker 2: the weekend. We had two on Friday night, one more

95
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 2: on Saturday we'll start in San Antonio. This one tough

96
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:26,279
Speaker 2: to decide who to give the credit to. It's Zion

97
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:30,160
Speaker 2: Williamson and Baits job there fighting for the rebound. Who

98
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 2: really triggered it? I think it's baits job the most.

99
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, Chep cup job, Cep chop job.

100
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,400
Speaker 2: So that was number fourteen. Then same night, like I

101
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,360
Speaker 2: don't know, ten minutes later, I think in Utah Oshae

102
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,720
Speaker 2: Brisset hitting the jumper weggie from the left hand side.

103
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 2: Good old Canadian boy sticking a weggie.

104
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 4: Excellent Canadian weggie removal as well.

105
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,559
Speaker 2: That's right. And then on Saturday, kJ Martin the highlight

106
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 2: machine giving us a weggie from three point distance. I'm

107
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,040
Speaker 2: looking Draymond cool Loo Kelly dislodged that weggie.

108
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 3: Don't see that often, just hanging on the rim, hanging.

109
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 2: On the rim to let it pop out. Yeah. So

110
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 2: there you go, sixteen wedgies on pace for fifty five

111
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 2: and that is not even counting the playoffs, which were

112
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:16,360
Speaker 2: good for what three to six in a playoff? Uh,

113
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:18,720
Speaker 2: you know, deep playoff run something like that.

114
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 3: Sure, he could be.

115
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:23,679
Speaker 2: I don't think that. I don't think that's taking into consideration.

116
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 2: You think it is.

117
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it is. Yeah, Oh wow, yeah, I

118
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 3: just know that. Add some games.

119
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,600
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, winter's the weekend. Let's get into a task.

120
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 2: Who you got as your big winner. There are a

121
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 2: lot to pick from here.

122
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,160
Speaker 3: The New Orleans Pelicans, baby, they are second in the

123
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 3: Western Conference with a bullet and Zion Williamson is peaking

124
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 3: right now. We are getting peak Zion Williamson. He's looking

125
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 3: so great out there. He's unstoppable. Baby. You just give

126
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 3: that guy a bit of space. He gave him a

127
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 3: little dribble handoff from Yonas Valentunas to get him going downhill,

128
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 3: or you get him a pick, just a little bit

129
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 3: of space up, get him going downhill. Yeah, he's going

130
00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 3: left every time, everybody knows it. But he can spin

131
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,919
Speaker 3: off that thing. His spin is so quick right now.

132
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,760
Speaker 3: There was a play on Sunday when he shook Aaron Gordon,

133
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 3: who was guarding him. Just a quick, quick shimmy. There's

134
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 3: a quick shimmy with the ball. Aaron Gordon went flying.

135
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,839
Speaker 3: Those fast twitch muscles for Zion Williamson are working right now.

136
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 3: And you need a guy that big in Aaron Gordon

137
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 3: to try and defend that dude. Going downhill. Zion is

138
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 3: just amazing. On Friday against the Spurs thirty fifteen and eight,

139
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,479
Speaker 3: and then Sunday against the Nuggets in what was a

140
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:35,040
Speaker 3: battle for second place in the Western Conference, he had

141
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,160
Speaker 3: twenty five, but he needed help because Nicola Jokic had

142
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 3: a great game on the other side of a phenomenal

143
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 3: game and Nuggets wanted to win. He had thirty two

144
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 3: to sixteen and nine assists. But it was the Pelican's depth,

145
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 3: which is real depth. It is real real depth league. Yeah, totally,

146
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 3: And it's not like that fakes bench stuff that they'll

147
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,479
Speaker 3: be good now and then later on they won't perform

148
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:57,719
Speaker 3: in the playoffs. I think this team is truly good

149
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,120
Speaker 3: beyond their big three of CG. Mccoum, Brandon Nme and Zion.

150
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 3: They had a seventeen to four run when Joker sat

151
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,840
Speaker 3: because they do have a better bench. They're just more deep.

152
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 3: Trey Murphy changed the game. Willie hern and Gomans changed

153
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 3: the game. Rookie Dyson Daniels been starting two games in

154
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,680
Speaker 3: a row here because her jones is hurt. They're so deep,

155
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 3: and then Jose Alvarado comes in and sparks the thing

156
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 3: and it's not just a spark. We've all talked about

157
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 3: him as, Oh, he's the changes the game. He's does

158
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,880
Speaker 3: the steal any type thing. He's just a great basketball player.

159
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 4: Now.

160
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 3: He's just honed his craft. Like Zion, he is so

161
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 3: good off the dribble. He just knows where his shots

162
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 3: come from. Even if he's undersized, he can get to

163
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 3: the rim when they move the ball. He had thirty

164
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 3: eight career a career high thirty eight points, was going

165
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 3: for forty at the end, he was going for it. Yeah,

166
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 3: the arena wanted him to get it. Oh better chant

167
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 3: than it. He was the game, he really did. He

168
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 3: was eight up, eleven from three, this phenomenal stuff. His

169
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 3: career high wasn't even thirty before this game, so he

170
00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 3: had thirty eight. It's it's something they need though. The

171
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 3: depth is really something they need because Zion, Brandon Ingram

172
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 3: and Cej McCollum haven't played a ton together. They're six

173
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 3: and three when they play twenty minutes together, plus eighteen

174
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,320
Speaker 3: point nine points. That is so so good. And then

175
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 3: just back to Zion. Just loving the Zion on the

176
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 3: floor and off the floor, because he's going to have

177
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 3: the entire basketball community loving him supporting him because he's

178
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 3: charismatic when he gets on the press row, like when

179
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 3: he does his interviews, he's charismatic. He's well spoken, and

180
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 3: I think we have a clip JD of one of

181
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 3: his interviews from the weekend.

182
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:38,479
Speaker 6: So my mom, my mom put me on Magic Bird

183
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 6: because of their playmaking abilities in you watch Michael Jordan.

184
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 6: Even when Michael Jordan's you know, he's a phenomenal score

185
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,600
Speaker 6: when he had to play point guard, I think he

186
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 6: averaged a triple double. But my stepfather, my stepfather is

187
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 6: more so like old school, but they got a certain taste,

188
00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 6: like you got Kenny Anderson. How to watch uh roh

189
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 6: the Pro Monroe. Uh a player named skit Wise who

190
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 6: a lot of people don't know. He kind of put

191
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 6: me on those kind of players because uh uh fly whims.

192
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 6: He put me on those players because they just play

193
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 6: fundamentally sound basketball.

194
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 2: But they all had their own flare too.

195
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 3: That's how you do it, Zion on the floor and

196
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:22,320
Speaker 3: off the floor.

197
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 2: What about this guy?

198
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 4: What about this tinies basketball player?

199
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 3: Well, he's smart, he's smart. He names the superstars. He

200
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 3: gives you the Bird and magic off the top. Then

201
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:31,560
Speaker 3: he gives you some deeper cuts. He goes to the

202
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 3: ABA giving me slick watch, giving you Kenny Anderson fan favorites,

203
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:37,319
Speaker 3: and then he gives you stats Michael Jordan with the

204
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 3: triple doubles. He's playing to the geeks. He's playing for

205
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:42,560
Speaker 3: the people who love the stars. He's playing to the

206
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,719
Speaker 3: cool kids who like the you know, the under the

207
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 3: radar guys. He's doing it all and then he does

208
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 3: it on the floor. This team is eight and two

209
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:52,080
Speaker 3: in their last ten. They're rolling here. They are just

210
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 3: behind the contenders of the contenders, but I think they

211
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 3: are in that sort of that beat here.

212
00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:58,440
Speaker 2: I was just gonna ask both of you that are

213
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 2: are the Pelicans a legit title contender or is that

214
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 2: a year or two ahead of schedule? Well, what do

215
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:03,679
Speaker 2: you think to you?

216
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 4: I think that's a year ahead of schedule if they

217
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:08,720
Speaker 4: haven't gone into a playoff series with Zion playing yet.

218
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:10,560
Speaker 4: And that's gonna be the big thing because he is

219
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:14,280
Speaker 4: their best player, and him being their leader and their

220
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 4: star is the key to them being a championship contender.

221
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,320
Speaker 4: They're on the path, no doubt about it. They are,

222
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,440
Speaker 4: you know, gelling at the right time. They're still not

223
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:23,960
Speaker 4: able to have their whole team out there, which is

224
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,280
Speaker 4: pretty impressive that they're able to rip off these kind

225
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:28,920
Speaker 4: of wins. But as they continue to play together, as

226
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:32,440
Speaker 4: they're you know, I don't know their big three is McCollum, Zion,

227
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 4: and Brandon Ingram certainly, but I mean like Alvarado's a

228
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,560
Speaker 4: key piece of this team at this point. Valanchunis I

229
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 4: feel like is kind of a key piece of this team,

230
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 4: just you know, the physicality he brings Herb Jones out there.

231
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:46,680
Speaker 4: Trey Murphy the third, I think he might be better

232
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,679
Speaker 4: than Herb Jones eventually. Like this guy's incredible the athleticism

233
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 4: and the shot making, not to mention the defense he brings.

234
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:55,439
Speaker 4: They're a great team, but it's probably a little bit

235
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,320
Speaker 4: like the Grizzlies last season where they could go to

236
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 4: the conference finals. Yeah, I wouldn't surprised that that kind

237
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:03,680
Speaker 4: of a performance from the Pelicans, but being able to

238
00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 4: top the teams that have been there and done it

239
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 4: might be a tough task. But Zion's pretty unstoppable. And

240
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 4: I do think it's hilarious that this became the weekend

241
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 4: where like everybody realizes he goes left every single time.

242
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,200
Speaker 4: Trey Murphy had a great interview after that Spurs game.

243
00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 4: He said, I was on the free throw line. One

244
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:20,720
Speaker 4: of the guys on the Spurs was telling another guy,

245
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 4: don't let him go left. The guy's like, Bro, I'm trying. Yeah,

246
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,959
Speaker 4: it ain't that easy. I told him, Yeah, he's a

247
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 4: big dude.

248
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:28,840
Speaker 2: Bro, I'm sorry.

249
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 4: Also, the idea that stopping Zion from going left has

250
00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:37,839
Speaker 4: never been uttered before. He's been going left for the

251
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:41,199
Speaker 4: entirety of his basketball career. But I ain't no way

252
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 4: to stop him. And that's why he went for what

253
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,839
Speaker 4: fifty five points on eighteen to thirty one shooting. I

254
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 4: think this weekend pretty impressive.

255
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then when he's cut off, he's finding guys

256
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 3: pretty well. He had eight assists on Friday. Yeah, because

257
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 3: you stop him going left, and he's he's great at it.

258
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,280
Speaker 3: I like the Grizzlies comparison, but I think the Pels

259
00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 3: have more top end talent than the Grizzlies and even

260
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 3: more depth than the Grizzlies did. If everybody is healthy,

261
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:06,560
Speaker 3: it feels like they do have that path. This is

262
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,480
Speaker 3: just so quick to be there. I know Zion's obviously

263
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 3: taken a while with his injuries, but to start this season.

264
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,800
Speaker 3: I thought when David Griffin signed to the contract, that thought, Wow,

265
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,319
Speaker 3: you're obviously saying he's gonna be healthy for a long

266
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 3: period of time, and then do you have the depth

267
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:26,440
Speaker 3: behind him? Well, yeah, David Griffin has made some wild moods.

268
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:29,200
Speaker 3: You said, the Trey Murphy, the Herb Jones draft pick.

269
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 3: I mean they are stacked, really if they're all healthy.

270
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 2: Yeah. Will Gillary has a great article up on The

271
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:36,360
Speaker 2: Athletic Go the Athletic Do kmslash no done, get yourself

272
00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:38,679
Speaker 2: a subscription, pointing out what you guys are saying, putting

273
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:40,080
Speaker 2: some stats to what you were saying about their starting

274
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 2: lineup barely playing together.

275
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I stole that sat from him for sure.

276
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,080
Speaker 2: Only ten of their first twenty three games where they've

277
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 2: been in there, All of them, you know, Zion Ingram

278
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,960
Speaker 2: McCollum have each missed like chunks of time here. But

279
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 2: then Will just went through all the guys contributing. You

280
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,600
Speaker 2: already said Alvarado and Trey Murphy, who have been outstanding,

281
00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,200
Speaker 2: both of them. Herb Jones, he hasn't shot the ball

282
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:00,960
Speaker 2: all that well this year, but he's on all clamps.

283
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:02,720
Speaker 2: We know that he's going to be making an all

284
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:06,920
Speaker 2: defensive team. Valent Tunis is just like the perfect solid center,

285
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:10,240
Speaker 2: you know, gives you a good twenty five thirty minutes,

286
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 2: you know less in some cases because Larry Nance Junior

287
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,040
Speaker 2: comes in closes the games at the five spot, you know,

288
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:16,679
Speaker 2: or Zion they play a lot at the five two.

289
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,600
Speaker 2: Naji Marshall's having his best season as a pro. Devonte

290
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:22,679
Speaker 2: Graham I always forget is on this team at times.

291
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 2: He's been decent, you know, despite limited opportunities and Dyson Daniels.

292
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,600
Speaker 2: That's just David Griffin finding another one here in the

293
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 2: draft who's like emerged recently as one of these rookies

294
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,040
Speaker 2: that appears like you know, NBA ready, you can plug

295
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,040
Speaker 2: him in and as long as you're not asking too

296
00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 2: much fro him, he can contribute. So deep deep team, Yeah,

297
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 2: we'll see. I guess the difference between the Grizzlies, I

298
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 2: love that comparison from last year in their run is

299
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,200
Speaker 2: they do have like Valen Tunis has been in a

300
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 2: lot of freaking playoff games. CJ. McCollum has obviously been

301
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,240
Speaker 2: in a lot of playoff series and stuff like that. No,

302
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,080
Speaker 2: I think it just helps a little bit true to

303
00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:00,320
Speaker 2: pair with your superstar Zion. They go as far as

304
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 2: Zion takes them, just like John Morant with the Grizzlies

305
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 2: once he got injured. They were losing games in the

306
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 2: postseason last year.

307
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 3: And they've got the euro Basket MVP and Willie Herne. Yeah,

308
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:13,720
Speaker 3: they are not the cream of the crop, let's be honest,

309
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:17,840
Speaker 3: but they are making their way. It is it is

310
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 3: Grizzlies like but I think they have Yeah, they have

311
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 3: a little a few more weapons when it comes down to.

312
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:26,040
Speaker 2: Well, I was one of the I feel like, maybe

313
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:27,320
Speaker 2: rare because a lot of people were high on the

314
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 2: Pelicans coming in the season, but I was like a

315
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 2: little worried that expectations were getting ahead of themselves. You

316
00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 2: know what they did last year down stretch after the

317
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 2: McCollum trade, and you know obviously having to always like

318
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 2: cross your fingers and hope that Zion would be healthy

319
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 2: in play. So I was like, I don't know about

320
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 2: their over under. I don't know, like slow it down

321
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:44,880
Speaker 2: a little bit, and they're proving me wrong. And that's

322
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:48,960
Speaker 2: with guys missing time fully stacked. You'd love to see

323
00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 2: the potential run they could go on here, and it

324
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 2: shouldn't be long when they're all back. But man, great

325
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 2: job by Willie Green and the Pelicans so far. Yeah,

326
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 2: I said, near the top of the Western Conference.

327
00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, just your second the Western conferen Do you remember

328
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 3: the the they are second to the Suns, And we

329
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,080
Speaker 3: remember the playoff series that they had with the Suns

330
00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:07,480
Speaker 3: last year, you know, without Zion.

331
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 2: So yeah, six game series. Put up a decent fight,

332
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 2: all right, try let's keep it going. Who you got

333
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 2: winners the weekend?

334
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:16,640
Speaker 4: There's two things I love, skeets a thumbnail that says

335
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:22,040
Speaker 4: epic duel and big meaty men slapping me Jesus. That's

336
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 4: why I'm saying winner of the Weekend goes to Anthony

337
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 4: Davis versus Jannis on Friday Night Game of the Year candidate,

338
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 4: I would have to say for the first quarter of

339
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:34,160
Speaker 4: the season, forty points, seven rebounds, five assists, and a

340
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 4: sick block on Lebron from Yannis outdone though by forty

341
00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:41,680
Speaker 4: four points, ten rebounds, four assists, and three blocks from

342
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 4: Anthony Davis, who said he was inspired by Aaron Rodgers

343
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:47,360
Speaker 4: being there at Crypto.

344
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 3: Dot com and Rito.

345
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 2: They had a chat before the game.

346
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers asked him for thirty points so ad you

347
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 4: went up and put out forty four points and Aaron

348
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 4: Rodgers said, I only asked for thirty.

349
00:15:57,920 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 2: Wow, did you see the rings?

350
00:15:59,600 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 3: Aaron?

351
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 2: He wears a one.

352
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:02,760
Speaker 4: He only has one.

353
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 2: He wears, Oh good one. He wears like a lot

354
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 2: of like metallic jewelry, like.

355
00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 4: He's going through a Chris angel min Yes, kind of

356
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 4: abring here. Unfortunately. Nonetheless, Jannis and eighty they've had some

357
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 4: good games against each other in the past. I think

358
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 4: eighties first game with the Lakers against Giannis and the

359
00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:25,560
Speaker 4: Bucks was probably the best one prior to this one.

360
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 4: But this is their best head to head game. Also,

361
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 4: the rest of the game was awesome. In this one,

362
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,960
Speaker 4: we had two good defenses who I thought were playing

363
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 4: pretty solid defense, and it didn't matter at all because

364
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 4: the score was crazy. And this one you had Lebron

365
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,320
Speaker 4: passing Magic Johnson for sixth place on the all time

366
00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 4: assist list. Some say passing his his greatest skill. It's debatable.

367
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:49,240
Speaker 4: At this point, you all said, Chris Middleton returning finally

368
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:52,160
Speaker 4: from injury, seventeen point seven assists, a decent game, and

369
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 4: some drama at the end. The Bucks had a chance

370
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 4: to tie Grayson Allen had a nice look at a

371
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:59,000
Speaker 4: three with twenty seconds left, missed, Lakers get the rebound,

372
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 4: Russ missus two free throws. Drew Holliday has a chance

373
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:05,439
Speaker 4: to tie it with five seconds left, he missed. So

374
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,159
Speaker 4: a tough loss for the Bucks, but an awesome, awesome

375
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,639
Speaker 4: win for the Lakers, their best win of the season.

376
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 4: And then I thought that was good enough for a winner. Yeah,

377
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:16,120
Speaker 4: that game alone good enough for a winner, but Lakers

378
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:20,120
Speaker 4: ad had to get upgraded to full winner status after Sunday.

379
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:23,959
Speaker 4: Fifty five points from Anthony Davis against the Wizards, twenty

380
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 4: two of thirty from the field, seventeen rebounds, three blocks.

381
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:31,000
Speaker 4: The guy's getting MVP chance on the road. He's probably

382
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:33,040
Speaker 4: not at the MVP table quite yet.

383
00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:34,160
Speaker 2: Think he's in the restaurant.

384
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,199
Speaker 4: I saw him long five. We had a great window

385
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:39,639
Speaker 4: table and he just strolled on by. It was not

386
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 4: Anthony Davis coming by. Ninety nine points over the weekend.

387
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 4: Oh yea. I wonder if he's ever been to Peak Ludd's.

388
00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 4: He's a Chicago guy. I do not believe he's a

389
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,600
Speaker 4: Packers fan. That's a that's a disappointment. But ninety nine

390
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 4: points over the weekend, ten straight games with twenty points

391
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:55,920
Speaker 4: and ten rebounds. The defense is there too, leading the

392
00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:59,120
Speaker 4: league in rebounds second in blocks. The Lakers have won

393
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,040
Speaker 4: eight of their last ten games after a two and

394
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 4: ten start. They're three and a half games out of

395
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:05,639
Speaker 4: third place, but somehow they're still in twelve. That's crazy

396
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:07,879
Speaker 4: to me, Like they've had a great run here with

397
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:11,359
Speaker 4: Ad playing the best basketball of his life. Maybe bubble accepted,

398
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 4: and they still have made up two places, fourteenth to twelve.

399
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,119
Speaker 4: That's how tough it is in the Western Conference. But

400
00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:20,680
Speaker 4: shout out to the Lakers. I said, I'll believe you're

401
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:22,440
Speaker 4: actually on your way back when you beat a team

402
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,560
Speaker 4: that's not the Spurs. They beat the Bucks on the road. Yeah,

403
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,680
Speaker 4: that's impressive. And then they might beat the Wizards as well.

404
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 2: And this is Ad living up to all the expectations

405
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 2: everybody had for him. Like you should be at this

406
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,159
Speaker 2: point in Lebron's you know, stage of his career. You

407
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:37,919
Speaker 2: should be the guy. We've seen it for flashes, we

408
00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:39,240
Speaker 2: saw when you were with the Pelicans, we saw it

409
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:41,720
Speaker 2: in the bubble. You know, stay healthy and ball. No

410
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 2: one can stop you. Uh, And he's at least put

411
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:46,760
Speaker 2: it together here. Task for you know what, what do

412
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:48,680
Speaker 2: we like? It's like a ten to fifteen game window

413
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 2: at this point. You know, again knock on wood with

414
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:53,520
Speaker 2: ad always, but holy shit, he looks and stubble.

415
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, that two and ten start not so much, but

416
00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,120
Speaker 3: that eight to two run that they've had going recently. Yes,

417
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:02,200
Speaker 3: he looks like that guy that he didn't want to

418
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 3: be that The guy who got started this season was

419
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 3: that same guy the last couple years where he wasn't

420
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,119
Speaker 3: the number one guy. Obviously has to stay healthy. He

421
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:15,119
Speaker 3: has put the pressure upon himself, and he also is uh,

422
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:20,480
Speaker 3: maybe just gearing up for the second part of this season.

423
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:22,400
Speaker 3: Maybe he just didn't come out the gate and want

424
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:24,439
Speaker 3: to be an eighty two game guy. Maybe we.

425
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,080
Speaker 2: Shot like three times in a second half and we're like,

426
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 2: what's going on on Ham? Is that on the players

427
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:33,280
Speaker 2: not getting on the ball?

428
00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 3: What is that's probably probably chill mode him and Broad

429
00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:40,440
Speaker 3: know how to pace themselves. And I know we've sort

430
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:43,399
Speaker 3: of already said that the Lakers season is done, but

431
00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:45,439
Speaker 3: in the Western Conference, it isn't. If you go on

432
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,640
Speaker 3: a run and they're only five and a half back

433
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,359
Speaker 3: of first, even if they're in twelfth, which is weird

434
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 3: to say, the December schedule is ridiculously tough for them,

435
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:58,200
Speaker 3: but if they can beat the Milwaukee Bucks up against

436
00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:02,240
Speaker 3: that great defense, really they need threes to go down,

437
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:07,600
Speaker 3: and it's happening at times. So Ad is getting MVP chance.

438
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:09,840
Speaker 3: He deserves them right now.

439
00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 4: The heavy Lakers crowd there and watch it sounded oh.

440
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 3: My god, yes, oh my god. The cheers for bron

441
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,399
Speaker 3: That was wild and it was pretty fun, you know,

442
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 3: the dunks back and forth. A really fun weekend for

443
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 3: the Lakers. I'm eating Crow. We're eating crow here saying

444
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,440
Speaker 3: their season is done, or haven't already said their season

445
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 3: is done? It ain't over. AD's just got to keep

446
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:30,720
Speaker 3: it going and he wants to be in the All

447
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:31,120
Speaker 3: Star Game.

448
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 2: Well, you should give some Crow back because you were

449
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,399
Speaker 2: very early in the season pretty adamant about Westbrook should

450
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 2: be coming off the bench, and that is the role

451
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:39,240
Speaker 2: for him, as long as Ham can get through to

452
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:44,440
Speaker 2: him to like take that. He's been amazing. I think

453
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:47,000
Speaker 2: he's the favorite to win six Man of the Year suddenly,

454
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 2: now I know that's a Lakers Westbrook sort of bumped

455
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:51,439
Speaker 2: there with the they want you to bet on it,

456
00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:53,600
Speaker 2: But he has been great. I think He's been pretty

457
00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:56,160
Speaker 2: instrumental in this Ad run too, like Russ when he's

458
00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,679
Speaker 2: out there with him, of course, focusing on getting him

459
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 2: the ball, like let him go through him. Nobody can

460
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:02,119
Speaker 2: sell them ninety nine points over the weekend.

461
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:05,960
Speaker 3: Yep, Jesus Grand theft all Alvarado is going to steal

462
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 3: that six man trophy. He's got to get both.

463
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:11,760
Speaker 2: Malik Monk's been damn good for the Kings too, should

464
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:13,919
Speaker 2: be in consideration. Yeah, what about this guy quick trivia,

465
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:14,440
Speaker 2: Quick trivia?

466
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:17,199
Speaker 3: Yeah, sorry, well that's a good video. What about this

467
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 3: Malik Monk holding the six man trophy or Westbrook holding

468
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:24,200
Speaker 3: the six man trophy? Grand Theft Alvarado comes out, steals it,

469
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:28,239
Speaker 3: steals yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, Okay, you can

470
00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 3: steal it for anybody.

471
00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:32,920
Speaker 2: Quick trivia. H I couldn't believe this. From statitudes, Ad

472
00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 2: has recorded at least twenty five points, ten boards, and

473
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 2: a field goal percentage of fifty percent in each of

474
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:39,639
Speaker 2: his last nine games. That's the run he's been on

475
00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:42,080
Speaker 2: twenty five to ten plus fifty percent from the floor.

476
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:47,200
Speaker 2: Only one other player over the last fifty NBA seasons

477
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:52,920
Speaker 2: has produced a longer streak. Only one who is it, Nope,

478
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:58,159
Speaker 2: Diggety Dwight nope, Carl Malone nope, Tim Duncan No, but

479
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:00,760
Speaker 2: you're getting closer. I'd say with the player caliber of

480
00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 2: a Tim Duncan, So just say the next awesome big

481
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:06,080
Speaker 2: guy from the David Robinson, No, not the team, but

482
00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 2: didn't mean that, didn't mean to steer in the run

483
00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:08,440
Speaker 2: directiond shack shack.

484
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:09,440
Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, that's good.

485
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:11,359
Speaker 2: Two thousand and two thousand and one. He did it

486
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:14,840
Speaker 2: eleven straight games. Hed, He's got a chance to like,

487
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:17,280
Speaker 2: potentially surpassed that. He's gotta go for twenty five and

488
00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 2: ten and shoot a fifty percent next couple of games

489
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:20,880
Speaker 2: of time and then three to beat him crazy.

490
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,119
Speaker 4: Also, he was the first Laker to have back to

491
00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:26,360
Speaker 4: back forty point games since Kobe in twenty to thirteen.

492
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 4: That was a surprising stat to me. You would think

493
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:31,000
Speaker 4: Lebron may have done it at some point, or that

494
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:32,920
Speaker 4: Kobe would have done it at some point in the

495
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,080
Speaker 4: last three seasons of his career. He didn't retire until

496
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:39,040
Speaker 4: twenty sixteen. Nonetheless, if you're getting Lakers records, they've had

497
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:42,159
Speaker 4: some serious down there, so great stuff from ad. The

498
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:45,479
Speaker 4: question is, actually, I guess that's probably my opinion now

499
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:47,520
Speaker 4: that I'm thinking about it, better than the bubble, because

500
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:49,640
Speaker 4: in the bubble it was awesome. He was shooting jumpers,

501
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:52,199
Speaker 4: he was knocked down from outside. But this is like

502
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:55,679
Speaker 4: all layups and floaters and dunks. The guy's playing the

503
00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:58,840
Speaker 4: five like everybody's been asking for his entire career, and

504
00:22:58,840 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 4: guess what it's working.

505
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. Like the good, good example in the Wizard's

506
00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:05,159
Speaker 2: game is when he misses inside, gets the rebound and

507
00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:08,560
Speaker 2: then like goes up ferociously and dunks on like two

508
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:10,560
Speaker 2: Wizards players. Like he puts two guys on a poster.

509
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 2: So he's playing inside for sure. All right, let's keep

510
00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:15,600
Speaker 2: it going here, win are the weekend. Jimmy Butler for

511
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:18,160
Speaker 2: coming back to the Miami Heat. I mean, you said

512
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:20,359
Speaker 2: the Lakers Bucks game on front night was awesome. It was,

513
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 2: And at the exact same time, the Celtics Heat game

514
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 2: was a banger too, this one going to overtime. But

515
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:29,440
Speaker 2: Jimmy Butler returned to the Heat lineup after missing seven

516
00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:31,880
Speaker 2: games with a sore right knee, and they needed him,

517
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,480
Speaker 2: and man did he deliver Like twenty five points, fifteen boards,

518
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:38,880
Speaker 2: three assists in thirty six minutes for Jimmy, and they

519
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,439
Speaker 2: survived a miraculous shot from Jalen Brown at the end

520
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:46,199
Speaker 2: of regulation, just an incredible heave that went off the

521
00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:48,800
Speaker 2: glass and went in and got them to overtime. But

522
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 2: in the end he pulled it out one twenty one

523
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:53,600
Speaker 2: to sixteen, and Butler was just like, it's just so like,

524
00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:56,080
Speaker 2: you know, we always have like the All Star debates

525
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:58,480
Speaker 2: and like All NBA Team debates, and Jimmy misses a

526
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:01,119
Speaker 2: good chunk of times, so he's never like you're always like, damn,

527
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:04,080
Speaker 2: he's good, but like, ah, he's missed too much so

528
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:06,200
Speaker 2: he can't be there whatever. But then you see him

529
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,240
Speaker 2: play and you're reminded, like when he has like a

530
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 2: five minute stretch and you're just like, this guy's one

531
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 2: of the best best players in the world. He really is.

532
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,080
Speaker 2: And this is a perfect example. He hit back to

533
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 2: back baskets late in regulation, first off of an assist from

534
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,760
Speaker 2: Kyle Lowry and then the second one. I'm sure you

535
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 2: guys saw this special where he got Horford switched on him.

536
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:28,439
Speaker 2: He drove baseline like he was Steve Nash, kept his

537
00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 2: dribble alive and just kept circling and then like in

538
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:34,680
Speaker 2: it like and just circled around to a round the

539
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:38,199
Speaker 2: free throw line rose up all in one motion, super

540
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 2: high fadeaway jumper splashed it and that put them up,

541
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:43,320
Speaker 2: put them up three until Jalen Brown hit his crazy

542
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:47,480
Speaker 2: shot there to put them overtime. Just a unbelievable make,

543
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:49,800
Speaker 2: and then he had another jumper in overtime that sort

544
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:52,919
Speaker 2: of like sealed the deal from Miami. It's just I

545
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:55,400
Speaker 2: guess it's just I'm just reminded when he does come

546
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:57,720
Speaker 2: back and he just like he just takes over a game.

547
00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:00,880
Speaker 2: He could do it offensively and defensively. You're like, God, yeah,

548
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:04,080
Speaker 2: this guy is like, this guy's all NBA. If he

549
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:05,919
Speaker 2: played eighty two games, it's a lock. But because he

550
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,159
Speaker 2: misses chunks of time, then he sometimes misses out on

551
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:08,639
Speaker 2: these teams.

552
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:10,879
Speaker 4: He's a great tough shot maker, and you saw in

553
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:13,040
Speaker 4: overtime or in the fourth quarter of the one on

554
00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:15,440
Speaker 4: Horford is crazy and then the overtime jumper he hit

555
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:18,000
Speaker 4: very similar as well. He's got such a wide base

556
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:19,520
Speaker 4: on his jumper that it's kind of hard to get

557
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,679
Speaker 4: a perfect contest on it. But man, what a performance

558
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 4: he had here. Twenty five points twelve to twenty one

559
00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:27,000
Speaker 4: from the field, only made one free throw. Like a

560
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,639
Speaker 4: lot of Jimmy's most efficient scoring nights, he's getting to

561
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:31,640
Speaker 4: the free throw line ten times and making ten of them.

562
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 4: This was just all two point makes in incredible.

563
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:37,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, and they're eleven and twelve Miami are, so they're

564
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:40,440
Speaker 2: down there in the standings, but they have a pretty

565
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,199
Speaker 2: soft schedule coming up here. I think the Heat are gonna, like,

566
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:45,919
Speaker 2: you know, rip off one of these six out of

567
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:48,160
Speaker 2: seven or seven out of eight. They play the Grizzlies,

568
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,439
Speaker 2: Okay tonight, that's a tough one obviously in Memphis. But

569
00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:53,400
Speaker 2: then they have the Pistons, the Clippers, you know, who

570
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:56,720
Speaker 2: knows if PG inquire play the Spurs. They're in Indiana,

571
00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:59,640
Speaker 2: They're in Okase, They're in Houston, they're in San Antonio.

572
00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:02,600
Speaker 2: They got the Bulls, the Piacers again, the Wolves. That's

573
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:06,360
Speaker 2: a lot of like winnable games. If Miami has these

574
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 2: guys back, So I think I guess my point is

575
00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 2: I would expect Miami to start creeping up the Eastern

576
00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:13,840
Speaker 2: Conference standings here with the schedule getting a little bit

577
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 2: easier and their guys coming back, come on back, Jimmy,

578
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:18,440
Speaker 2: I think so I think, so, all right, let's do

579
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:19,040
Speaker 2: another round.

580
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:22,880
Speaker 3: Why not another round of winners positive on Mondays. I'll

581
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:26,000
Speaker 3: go with a very odd one, a different type of winner.

582
00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:29,480
Speaker 3: I think Alex Caruso, the Chicago Bulls and Warriors head

583
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:33,160
Speaker 3: coach Steve Kerr, both co winners of the weekend Friday

584
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,640
Speaker 3: Night Bulls in Golden State. Golden State took care of

585
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:40,040
Speaker 3: the Bulls no problem. After the game, Steve Kerr had

586
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:44,520
Speaker 3: an extended chat with Alex Caruso. They're hitty chatty, and

587
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:48,000
Speaker 3: it's clear after doing some lip reading. I think the

588
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:51,640
Speaker 3: entire world knows that. Steve Kerr said to Alex Caruso,

589
00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:53,800
Speaker 3: I'd love to have you man. I'd love to have

590
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:56,480
Speaker 3: you man, over and over and over again. He didn't.

591
00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 3: He didn't. He didn't loop himself like you're watching on YouTube.

592
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 3: I did that. But but I think they're both winners.

593
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:07,520
Speaker 3: Number one, Steve Kerr getting around the tampering rules. He didn't.

594
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:09,919
Speaker 3: He didn't do a Magic Johnson on Jimmy Kimmel and

595
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:12,480
Speaker 3: say hey, we watch on our team, Paul George. He

596
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:17,480
Speaker 3: just set it in his ear. Smart second, Alex Caruso,

597
00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:20,000
Speaker 3: you had the head coach of a guy who's won

598
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:22,360
Speaker 3: four ships in the last eight years, telling you he

599
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 3: loves you and what you do on the basketball floor.

600
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:27,600
Speaker 3: We were courtside just like you were at a college

601
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:32,199
Speaker 3: Skyhawks game, college Park Skyhawks game. We were courtside for

602
00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 3: Alex Caruso trying to make this league in summer league,

603
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,080
Speaker 3: barely making this league for the Lakers, and he had

604
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:41,359
Speaker 3: chance in Vegas. They're sure, but those were chances to

605
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:43,000
Speaker 3: try and get him in the league. And now this

606
00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:46,760
Speaker 3: dude is he's a lock in this league for a

607
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:49,479
Speaker 3: long time. So I just just going back to that.

608
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:53,760
Speaker 3: Just huge to have. Oh that's love and support and

609
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:57,160
Speaker 3: guys who want to trade for you. What's the deal?

610
00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:58,880
Speaker 2: What's the move? Have you fired up the trade show?

611
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 3: There's lots, there's plenty, Kevin O'Connor throughout immediately, the Alex

612
00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:05,760
Speaker 3: Crusoe for James Wiseman, who says no.

613
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:11,200
Speaker 4: Bolls come on, Okay, Wiseman is not in the NBA. Wow.

614
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,160
Speaker 3: If they're trying to be good for a long time,

615
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:15,399
Speaker 3: I could see that happen.

616
00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:16,879
Speaker 4: They're trying to tank, they should get Wiseman.

617
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:19,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, well yeah, if you want to win right now. Yeah,

618
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:22,239
Speaker 3: Carusoe is the guy, But do you want to be

619
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:24,800
Speaker 3: sub five hundred for years or do you want to

620
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:25,600
Speaker 3: look to the future.

621
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:29,000
Speaker 4: Wiseman ain't bringing him back. I think Steve Kerrz recruiting

622
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:30,399
Speaker 4: him for Team USA personally.

623
00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:32,720
Speaker 3: That's possible. Yeah, it's going to get to that. Yeah, yeah,

624
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:34,119
Speaker 3: definitely makes sense.

625
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:39,120
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, okay, CARUSA. Man, he's like the well, if

626
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:40,840
Speaker 2: he's not trying to get him to the Wars, yeah,

627
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 2: I'm looking for like Gary Peton the second replacement. He's like,

628
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:44,760
Speaker 2: oh damn, we'd love to have you on this team.

629
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:48,080
Speaker 2: Slotch you in try and win us another chip.

630
00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:49,920
Speaker 3: And they could have signed Gary Payton the second and

631
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 3: they could have signed those guys, but they decided not to.

632
00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:55,880
Speaker 3: It was more just a hey, you're an awesome guy. Man.

633
00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 3: I don't necessarily think he's trying to get him, but

634
00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:03,080
Speaker 3: it was a moment for him, I think, and just

635
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:04,760
Speaker 3: trying to give the Bulls some left because they stink.

636
00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:07,520
Speaker 4: You know, I haven't beat the Warrior since twenty seventeen.

637
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:10,560
Speaker 2: Oh that's a lot time.

638
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:12,240
Speaker 4: I mean the Warriors have been like the best guess

639
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,720
Speaker 4: the play twice ten to eleven.

640
00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think they have a good record against

641
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:19,640
Speaker 2: the second team they lost to too in the beam

642
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:21,600
Speaker 2: of Kings, right, I think the Kings have a decent

643
00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 2: record against the Bulls onst couple of years.

644
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:25,000
Speaker 4: It's gonna be a shock, but the Bulls have a

645
00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:27,160
Speaker 4: pretty bad record against a lot of teams from twenty

646
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:27,720
Speaker 4: seventeen on.

647
00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:30,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, who do you have for another winner? Let's

648
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 2: keep it going.

649
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,600
Speaker 4: It ain't the Bulls. No, but I did mention on

650
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:37,840
Speaker 4: our Western Conference surprises last week. We rarely talk about

651
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:39,920
Speaker 4: the Memphis Grizzlies and how they used to be a

652
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,720
Speaker 4: winner every weekend last season. Guess what They're a winner

653
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 4: this weekend. Friday beat the Sixers, Sunday beat the Pistons.

654
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 4: A couple of different levels of opponent, a couple of

655
00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:52,000
Speaker 4: different kinds of games, and a couple of different kinds

656
00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:55,000
Speaker 4: of game balls or if I were running the show

657
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:57,200
Speaker 4: Big Hats, I would be giving these guys the big

658
00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:58,960
Speaker 4: hat at the end of the day. Big Hat versus

659
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:03,000
Speaker 4: the Sixers. Jerry Jackson Junior twenty two points, a couple

660
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 4: of threes, nine rebounds, and four blocks, including a game

661
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 4: saver almost Lafonso Ellis esque snatch block on a Joel

662
00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 4: mb dunk late in the fourth quarter. This is one

663
00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:18,480
Speaker 4: of his best games since returning. Still fouled a little bit,

664
00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:21,600
Speaker 4: but his defense, his shot making, his ability to just

665
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:24,560
Speaker 4: dink and dump inside has been really good for the Grizzlies.

666
00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:26,840
Speaker 4: The Sunday big hat, though, goes to John Morant thirty

667
00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:29,920
Speaker 4: three points, ten assists, twenty one points in the third quarter.

668
00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:32,440
Speaker 4: Kind of surprised to hear that that's his career high

669
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 4: for a quarter. Seemed like you would have had a

670
00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:36,600
Speaker 4: twenty five or a thirty point quarter even nonetheless a

671
00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:40,400
Speaker 4: highlight festival for this one. He somehow hit two It

672
00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 4: felt like buzzer beater shots on a two for one

673
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:46,120
Speaker 4: in the third quarter. They were both incredible. Dylan Brooks

674
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 4: pretty solid in both of these. He did have a

675
00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,800
Speaker 4: hilarious seven for twenty line, but all good. The bench

676
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 4: was pretty good in both of these. They've been up

677
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 4: and down, I think, so far this season, but a

678
00:30:54,760 --> 00:31:00,280
Speaker 4: nice bounce back weekend after a stinker versus Minnesota last week.

679
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,000
Speaker 4: And I'm even willing to throw in Saturday as a

680
00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:05,880
Speaker 4: winner for Memphis as well, because when Memphis scored against

681
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 4: tm USA and the World Cup, Yeah, he hit the

682
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:11,800
Speaker 4: finger Selly, Yeah, that's what I know it was over

683
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:16,400
Speaker 4: for you as bands on US. Game over. Nice weekend

684
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:17,240
Speaker 4: for Memphis.

685
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 3: Though, Any thoughts on the Grizzlies, Yeah, get back Desmond Baine.

686
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,600
Speaker 3: We don't need Dylan Brook shooting all the shots. That

687
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 3: would be very, very nice for them. But yeah, their

688
00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:29,120
Speaker 3: depth coming through and the celly coming through.

689
00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 2: I wanted to give a winner of the weekend to

690
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 2: a team that I thought desperately needed it, and it

691
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:37,880
Speaker 2: was the Portland Trailblazers because headed into the weekend action,

692
00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:41,400
Speaker 2: Portland had lost seven of their last eight, with that

693
00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 2: only win coming in overtime against the Knick. So it'd

694
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,720
Speaker 2: been a bad, bad run here. But they took care

695
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:50,080
Speaker 2: of business. They win and win one excuse me in

696
00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:52,920
Speaker 2: Utah on Saturday night, and then they turned around, flew

697
00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:55,960
Speaker 2: home and took care of the Indiana Pacers on Sunday,

698
00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:57,840
Speaker 2: who were without Tyre's Halliburton so they were a little

699
00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 2: short staff. But Saturday anproty Samond's career high forty five

700
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,400
Speaker 2: points from the opening minute. I don't know if you

701
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,960
Speaker 2: saw this, this guy was like just attacking the Utah

702
00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:09,200
Speaker 2: Jazz scored twenty three points in the first quarter, eight

703
00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:12,520
Speaker 2: to ten, shooting five to seven threes. They switched up

704
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:14,440
Speaker 2: a little bit their defense. They kept going under and

705
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:16,680
Speaker 2: stuff like that, letting him walk into three point shots.

706
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:19,040
Speaker 2: But eventually they started throwing some doubles at him. He

707
00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:21,320
Speaker 2: moved the ball and it was a close game, and

708
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:23,520
Speaker 2: then he made a game saving sort of defensive play,

709
00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:26,240
Speaker 2: a little dicey on Jordan Clarkson. It was a three

710
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:28,560
Speaker 2: point game and he did the old like swipe down

711
00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:31,200
Speaker 2: on it. You know, you can get yourself in trouble. Obviously,

712
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,040
Speaker 2: put the guy at the line, but it was a

713
00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:36,480
Speaker 2: clean swat and Clarkson then like kicked it out. So

714
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 2: the Blazers won. So that was a big win. And

715
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,880
Speaker 2: then on Sunday, Damian Lillard returned to the lineup twenty

716
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:44,200
Speaker 2: one point six assists. He had missed decent chunk of

717
00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:46,840
Speaker 2: time here Blazer's lights out from three again, seventeen to

718
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:49,400
Speaker 2: forty as a team, and that ball was zipping around

719
00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:53,440
Speaker 2: against the Pacers thirty two assists on forty two made

720
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:57,200
Speaker 2: field goals, So Simon's awesome on Saturday. Lillard back on Sunday,

721
00:32:57,360 --> 00:32:59,120
Speaker 2: and then the glue guy of it all, Jeremy Grant,

722
00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:01,520
Speaker 2: put him in the All Star Game he averaged thirty

723
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:03,920
Speaker 2: and a half points three game over the weekend, just

724
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,400
Speaker 2: you know, just going about his business. He didn't do

725
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:09,280
Speaker 2: a lot else. You check his box scorings like not

726
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:11,080
Speaker 2: a whatt rebounds, not a lassis. I don't even think

727
00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 2: he had a stealer or a block on the weekend.

728
00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 2: But who cares when you're scoring like that. So I

729
00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:18,480
Speaker 2: think the Blazers really needed not only Lillard back, but

730
00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:21,000
Speaker 2: to like just get some of these wins against teams

731
00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:23,080
Speaker 2: you know in the Jazz at least that are like

732
00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:24,400
Speaker 2: right around them in the standard.

733
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:26,760
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, and they want to tight, very very tight

734
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:29,200
Speaker 3: game again without Lillard. I know they are three and

735
00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:31,520
Speaker 3: seven here in their last ten, but zoom out. It

736
00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:34,560
Speaker 3: doesn't feel that way, even if you know the record

737
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:36,640
Speaker 3: says that they're three and seven after starting so hot,

738
00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:39,160
Speaker 3: they're thirteen to eleven, So it doesn't feel great to

739
00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:42,040
Speaker 3: be that bad in their last ten. At the same time,

740
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:45,960
Speaker 3: Dame is back, and I'm sure they were cautious this

741
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:47,960
Speaker 3: time bringing him back. And it was still even a

742
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:51,040
Speaker 3: little surprising when he was announced that he was playing

743
00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:54,240
Speaker 3: on Sunday because he was questionable. So that's a great sign.

744
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:56,240
Speaker 3: And again zoom out twenty four games in to be

745
00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:58,560
Speaker 3: a couple games above five hundred. Very good. They feel great.

746
00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:01,640
Speaker 2: Same thing with this team, King's little mini winner the weekend.

747
00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:04,000
Speaker 2: They've won three straight after they lost three straight, so

748
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:05,719
Speaker 2: that's good. They bounced back here. They beat the Clippers

749
00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:07,640
Speaker 2: and the Bulls over the weekend. So Bonus was a

750
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:10,920
Speaker 2: monster there on Sunday. Eleven points. He only shot four times,

751
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:13,680
Speaker 2: but seventeen rebounds and ten assists. Again, a lot of

752
00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:16,720
Speaker 2: stuff goes through him. And they had seven guys including

753
00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:19,440
Speaker 2: all five starters, scoring double digits. They're showing off their

754
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:21,239
Speaker 2: depth as well. I think the Kings have been really

755
00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:24,759
Speaker 2: really solid in that department, and I thought that this

756
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:28,080
Speaker 2: win over the Bulls, especially after beating the Clippers, It's

757
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:32,680
Speaker 2: like these were games that the Kings would lose, you know,

758
00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:37,279
Speaker 2: in previous years they would just have a letdown, and

759
00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:39,880
Speaker 2: they're not doing that now, so that's good. Like these

760
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:41,759
Speaker 2: are teams like they should have beat the Pacers, they

761
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:43,640
Speaker 2: should have beat a depleted Clippers team, they should have

762
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:46,480
Speaker 2: beat the Bulls, and they did so. Oh my god,

763
00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:48,359
Speaker 2: let the beam keep it lit. And ma league monk,

764
00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:50,600
Speaker 2: we slipped them in there already another twenty points off

765
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:53,640
Speaker 2: the bench, five assists, two steals. Game changer in this game,

766
00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:55,799
Speaker 2: like exactly what you want from a six man really

767
00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:59,879
Speaker 2: sparked them after you know he was slotted in there.

768
00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:03,279
Speaker 2: Proposed a nickname though, from Malik Monk, like an absolutely

769
00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:07,240
Speaker 2: horrible nickname, gee Whizz you guys know him on Twitter.

770
00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:11,200
Speaker 2: I proposed the nickname. I'm laughing before I can even

771
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:16,479
Speaker 2: say it, moncrow Wave instead of Microwave, Vinny Johnson, He's

772
00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:20,520
Speaker 2: the Melik moncrow Wave. So bad it's good or so

773
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:22,800
Speaker 2: bad it's horrible written?

774
00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,400
Speaker 3: I think I think it's very passable and a written.

775
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 2: Funny moncrow Wave.

776
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:29,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, growave as soon as you say it, Yeah, you

777
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:30,239
Speaker 3: want to trash it.

778
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:34,280
Speaker 4: I think it's better to say Malik ro Wave. Oh interesting,

779
00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:38,920
Speaker 4: Microwave better written, malikro Wave better to say. But he

780
00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:41,319
Speaker 4: was incredible. Both turned the ball over eleven times in

781
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:43,040
Speaker 4: the second quarter of this game. That was when the

782
00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:43,880
Speaker 4: game was lost.

783
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:47,000
Speaker 2: Yep, and Malik was in there and he threw. He

784
00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:51,080
Speaker 2: threw a couple. He's got some sneaky dunks.

785
00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:52,759
Speaker 4: And he's just a crazy one where he like went up,

786
00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:55,320
Speaker 4: yeah dunk. There's a nice challenge at the risk he

787
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:58,399
Speaker 4: brought all the way back up. Yeah that was nice.

788
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:00,840
Speaker 2: Uh So I win the weekend of the Kings and

789
00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:04,719
Speaker 2: final one here you slipped it in tasks College Park Skyhawks.

790
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:06,680
Speaker 2: I want to give them a winner of the weekend.

791
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:10,520
Speaker 2: Have me down to a game on Sunday. Me, my buddy,

792
00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:14,600
Speaker 2: gresh Nora, my god kids there, Andreas and Zara and

793
00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,000
Speaker 2: I had a blast. This is my first Jillie game

794
00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:20,839
Speaker 2: I have ever taken in, and its fun as hell, man,

795
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:24,520
Speaker 2: because it's an intimate arena at least here in College Park,

796
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:26,320
Speaker 2: which is like down by the airport here in Atlanta.

797
00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:29,920
Speaker 2: But if you were a basketball Sico, get yourself out

798
00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:32,200
Speaker 2: to a Jillie if you're close, because a Jillie game

799
00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:34,920
Speaker 2: because chances are gonna be able to sit close. And

800
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:38,440
Speaker 2: these guys are guys that were in the NBA are

801
00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:40,719
Speaker 2: going to be in the NBA. Like the athleticism is

802
00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:43,239
Speaker 2: still next level. And I had a lot of fun

803
00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:48,239
Speaker 2: watching Denzel Valentine versus Langston Galloway, like going one on one.

804
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:51,120
Speaker 2: Brandon Williams member he played for the Blazers for a

805
00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:52,880
Speaker 2: little bit. You know, he's on the Hawks team. I

806
00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:54,799
Speaker 2: think he will he'll get a call up at some

807
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:57,600
Speaker 2: point he can score. Chris Silva, if you remember played

808
00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:00,279
Speaker 2: for the Heat. There's like if if you are a

809
00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:02,080
Speaker 2: true basketball sick, there's a bunch of guys you're gonna

810
00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:05,880
Speaker 2: realize or recognize. And man, I had so much fun.

811
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:10,160
Speaker 2: And the G League game moves with a pace task Oh,

812
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:12,440
Speaker 2: a nice pace to the games because I had forgotten

813
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:16,040
Speaker 2: about the one free throw rule. You get fouled, you know,

814
00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:17,279
Speaker 2: and you go to the line to shoot two in

815
00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:19,279
Speaker 2: the NBA. Now you just shoot one. You shoot one

816
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,120
Speaker 2: in the G League game. Let's go. You hit it

817
00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:25,200
Speaker 2: two points? Nope, zero, It speeds it up. Actually you're

818
00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:27,120
Speaker 2: just like, you know, this is less like just people

819
00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:30,520
Speaker 2: standing around watching free throws. Lee Ellis's worst nightmare. But

820
00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:33,719
Speaker 2: I loved it. So College Park Skyhawks, get yourself out

821
00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:35,360
Speaker 2: to a j L game if you can. You know,

822
00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:37,319
Speaker 2: it's affordable too, if you've got a family, And I

823
00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:39,840
Speaker 2: think if you have young kids, go to a g

824
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:43,359
Speaker 2: LE game instead of an NBA game. Affordability huge part.

825
00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:45,880
Speaker 2: And then like your kids ain't really gonna care really

826
00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:48,320
Speaker 2: who they're in fact seeing, but if they're so close,

827
00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:50,160
Speaker 2: it's like they can't take their eyes off the game.

828
00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:51,440
Speaker 2: So there's that part as well.

829
00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:54,640
Speaker 3: What if there's a rolling ball towards them then somebody

830
00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:55,840
Speaker 3: comes diving into.

831
00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 2: Well, we had one pass get zipped over to us

832
00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:01,279
Speaker 2: sitting courtside there. I forget who it was that caught it,

833
00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:04,000
Speaker 2: but uh, Nora was like, well that would have decapitated

834
00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:06,799
Speaker 2: one of the kids. Like it. It came firing in

835
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:08,680
Speaker 2: and we were telling them like, you gotta like not

836
00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:11,400
Speaker 2: be like not that they have phones, but like you can't.

837
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:14,279
Speaker 3: Be on your phone, you buddy to get off. Yeah,

838
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:16,200
Speaker 3: ready to protect his kids.

839
00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:17,040
Speaker 2: That's right.

840
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:19,359
Speaker 3: In case Langston Gallowy comes rolling.

841
00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:21,520
Speaker 2: You gotta be careful, man, you're sitting close. In fact,

842
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:23,600
Speaker 2: I was like, you know, you get comfortable. I'm leaning

843
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:25,719
Speaker 2: back and I'm like, I felt bad a couple of times.

844
00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:27,920
Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm getting pretty close to tripping a ref here,

845
00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:32,799
Speaker 2: don't Well you're not far from it. Uh So bring

846
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:34,880
Speaker 2: them back in there. There's enough for him. They can

847
00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:37,040
Speaker 2: they can go around you. But uh, I had so

848
00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:38,960
Speaker 2: much fun. We gotta go. We got to get the

849
00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,839
Speaker 2: whole No Dunks team out there, no doubt for sure,

850
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:45,920
Speaker 2: especially if if Scoots plan for the ignite Scoot.

851
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:46,919
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'd love to see scoo.

00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:14,080
Speaker 4: Slam magazine Russ BankSA.

862
00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:14,840

00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:24,920

Speaker 2: We're happy. We're pumped. Roberto says, Oh my god. I

875
00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:53,600
Speaker 2: go to Legends games here in Dallas. It's amazing. You

876
00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:57,160
Speaker 2: can sit floor side for twenty six dollars. That's what

877
00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:59,480
Speaker 2: I'm talking about. Y, it's incredible.

878
00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:00,200
Speaker 1: Uh.

879
00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:04,400
Speaker 2: The Black Basketball Channel was En Master asked, imagine the

880
00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:06,200
Speaker 2: pressure of a tie game and a foul call with

881
00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:08,800
Speaker 2: one free throw. I wanted to clarify it does change,

882
00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:11,279
Speaker 2: I believe in the final maybe two minutes where you're

883
00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:13,520
Speaker 2: back to normal two free throws, but for a majority

884
00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:15,359
Speaker 2: of the game it's o the final five or final two.

885
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:16,920
Speaker 2: But anyway, it changes him the end. So if you

886
00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:19,359
Speaker 2: do get two free throws, and yeah, that's about it.

887
00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:21,960
Speaker 2: There was something else, Oh, people saying, is that? Is

888
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:24,560
Speaker 2: that my buddy Grish, Your buddy Grish, our buddy Grish.

889
00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:25,640
Speaker 2: Who's buddy Grish?

00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:27,400
Speaker 3: Is it's everybody's Yeah, we always say that.

891
00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:28,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I know, I know.

892
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:29,520
Speaker 3: Listen.

893
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:34,759
Speaker 4: Yeah, people, I thought you were gonna get setting it

894
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:36,680
Speaker 4: up or listen, I'm gonna say something important here, but

895
00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:39,520
Speaker 4: you're you're just giving advice. Yeah, podcast listening.

896
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:43,560
Speaker 3: What do you think I was gonna say?

897
00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:46,279
Speaker 4: Listen? Yeah, that's him. You know what he looks like.

898
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:47,239
Speaker 2: I've seen him.

899
00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:49,880
Speaker 4: But you were just saying, strictly listen with your ears.

900
00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:52,960
Speaker 3: Yeah that's him.

901
00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:56,680
Speaker 2: Let's get two losers of the NBA weekend. We usually

902
00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:58,680
Speaker 2: don't take as long with this because we like to

903
00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:01,279
Speaker 2: do a couple of rounds of winners. But task one

904
00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:02,080
Speaker 2: can get it started.

905
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:04,279
Speaker 3: Oh, this one's going to take a while, skeets now,

906
00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:07,279
Speaker 3: I won't but uh, a bit of a buzzkill for

907
00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:09,719
Speaker 3: the Atlanta Hawks this weekend. Friday night, they beat the

908
00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:14,480
Speaker 3: Denver Nuggets without tray Young, A nice inspiring win for

909
00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:17,359
Speaker 3: the locker room. Yeah, everybody feeling good beating a tough

910
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:20,160
Speaker 3: Nuggets team. Then the story comes out from the athletic

911
00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:23,960
Speaker 3: schamp Sharanya as to why tray Young wasn't playing Friday

912
00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:28,000
Speaker 3: against the Nuggets. Surprising Friday, Trey wasn't participating in shoot

913
00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:31,440
Speaker 3: around getting his shoulder worked on. Instead, head coach Nate

914
00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:35,480
Speaker 3: McMillan approached him and said, hey, participate and shoot around

915
00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:40,320
Speaker 3: and then get your shoulder worked on. Afterward, Trey said, nah,

916
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:44,279
Speaker 3: doing it now, I'll misshoot around, And then Nate took

917
00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:46,839
Speaker 3: the old school approach, cooring to Sham's reporting, if you're

918
00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:49,680
Speaker 3: choosing not to participate now, you're either coming off the

919
00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:53,120
Speaker 3: bench or you're not showing up to the arena tonight,

920
00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:57,440
Speaker 3: and Trey chose the latter. And the team reported he

921
00:41:57,520 --> 00:42:02,200
Speaker 3: was out with right shoulder soreness. So on Sunday, McMillan

922
00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:06,200
Speaker 3: told reporters that Young did not play due to a miscommunication.

923
00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:09,399
Speaker 3: So is that sort of walking it back a little bit?

924
00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:13,280
Speaker 3: I suppose. I don't know Young participated fully. It's weird

925
00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:18,319
Speaker 3: calling Trey just Young, but I had in my notes,

926
00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:20,479
Speaker 3: so I went with it. But anyways, Trey participated fully

927
00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:23,719
Speaker 3: on Sunday, and we'll return tonight Monday against OKAC. But

928
00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:27,400
Speaker 3: this rift goes deeper than that one incident of coach

929
00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:31,399
Speaker 3: over top of him on the massage table there because look,

930
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:35,880
Speaker 3: Schams wrote. Quote. League sources say the team is managing

931
00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:39,520
Speaker 3: simmering issues between its head coach and star player end quote.

932
00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:43,320
Speaker 3: The Hawks have held multiple team meetings early this season

933
00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:50,280
Speaker 3: to resolve various conflicts. That's deep, deeper than anyone knew

934
00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:54,160
Speaker 3: that they've had multiple team meetings. There really hasn't been

935
00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:59,920
Speaker 3: a verbal or sorry a public rift since Trey had

936
00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:02,720
Speaker 3: it out with John Collins last season or the Lloyd

937
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:05,920
Speaker 3: Pierce prior season to that, So this year it felt

938
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:08,560
Speaker 3: has felt clean. Even though there's been up and down

939
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:12,520
Speaker 3: with the team on the court, they have been extremely

940
00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:16,320
Speaker 3: up and down. So this is bad news, is it?

941
00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:19,440
Speaker 3: Just it doesn't feel like this is just two heads

942
00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:23,719
Speaker 3: budding and that's it. And so yeah, it's deeper than that.

943
00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:27,560
Speaker 3: It has to be. Shamp's basically lays it out. How

944
00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:30,719
Speaker 3: deep do you think this history? How problematic do you

945
00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:31,160
Speaker 3: think it is.

946
00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:35,640
Speaker 4: I think it's probably going to spell the end of

947
00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:38,920
Speaker 4: Nate McMillan's tenure with the Atlanta Hawks here and not

948
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,959
Speaker 4: too long, just because it's tough to win a beef

949
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:44,520
Speaker 4: with the franchise player. But it was pretty weird on Friday,

950
00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:46,560
Speaker 4: I was there. It was surprising to me that Trey

951
00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:48,719
Speaker 4: was going to be missing the game. First of all,

952
00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:50,799
Speaker 4: kind of came out of nowhere. He played in the

953
00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:53,200
Speaker 4: hawks previous game, but you know, guys, missed time whatever.

954
00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:54,640
Speaker 4: But then I was looking for him on the bench.

955
00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:57,560
Speaker 4: I was like, where is he? He's nowhere. Yeah, he

956
00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:00,000
Speaker 4: just didn't show up to the arena. That's a bad look,

957
00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:03,000
Speaker 4: especially considering part of the reason Lloyd Pierce was fired

958
00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:05,399
Speaker 4: in the first place was butting heads with Trey Young.

959
00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:08,759
Speaker 4: I think it's interesting though, that Sham's and Sam are

960
00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:11,280
Speaker 4: reporting that the Hawks want to stick with Nate McMillan,

961
00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:13,799
Speaker 4: because they're having a decent start to the season right now.

962
00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:15,759
Speaker 4: You know, they're fourth in the Eastern Conference. We have

963
00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:18,080
Speaker 4: talked a lot of bit though, or a lot about

964
00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:22,239
Speaker 4: how Trey's been struggling this season, and obviously something's been

965
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:24,640
Speaker 4: wearing on and he's not like in the way the

966
00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:28,200
Speaker 4: team is playing. You could read into some tea leaves

967
00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:31,120
Speaker 4: with de Jontay Murray's postgame interview on Friday. The Hawks

968
00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:34,600
Speaker 4: played incredible on Friday. Great game from Jalen Johnson, great

969
00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:37,600
Speaker 4: game from aj Griffin. Dejonte was great in the fourth

970
00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:41,160
Speaker 4: quarter as well, and afterwards basically everybody was saying, everybody eats.

971
00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:44,000
Speaker 4: It felt very similar to when John Wall went out

972
00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:47,000
Speaker 4: with injury with the Wizards years and years ago and

973
00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:49,760
Speaker 4: suddenly they started putting up all kinds of crazy assist numbers.

974
00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:52,920
Speaker 4: Things are not perfect with the Hawks, but I think

975
00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:55,520
Speaker 4: they're winning enough right now that they're going to hope

976
00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:57,799
Speaker 4: this blows over. But you know, if they hit a

977
00:44:57,840 --> 00:45:01,279
Speaker 4: losing streak or something else up to the surface, it

978
00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:03,680
Speaker 4: won't be long for Nate because he ain't gonna win

979
00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:04,080
Speaker 4: this battle.

980
00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:05,840
Speaker 2: I don't think no, you think they'll side with the

981
00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:08,720
Speaker 2: guy they gave two hundred and ten night they will. Yeah,

982
00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:11,400
Speaker 2: It's it's interesting about the de Jontay Murray, like everybody

983
00:45:11,480 --> 00:45:14,600
Speaker 2: sort of eats comments when you can like who they're

984
00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:17,800
Speaker 2: talking about. In Trey Young, who is like what top

985
00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:20,239
Speaker 2: two three still in the league in a sis per game.

986
00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:23,359
Speaker 2: It's not like he is a ballhog. But I do

987
00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:26,080
Speaker 2: think in watching a lot of Hawks games, especially when

988
00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:28,359
Speaker 2: he's struggling with his shot right now, Trey Young goes

989
00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:31,240
Speaker 2: for the home run three pointer way too many times

990
00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:31,719
Speaker 2: in a game.

991
00:45:32,640 --> 00:45:34,040
Speaker 3: And I don't mean late in games.

992
00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:36,120
Speaker 2: I mean in any quarters where it's like he just

993
00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:38,120
Speaker 2: like he feels like he's due, he feels a little

994
00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:39,319
Speaker 2: bit of light and I get it, like you want

995
00:45:39,400 --> 00:45:41,000
Speaker 2: him to like be free and loose like a Steph

996
00:45:41,080 --> 00:45:44,240
Speaker 2: Curry like, but there's so many times where you're like, what, oh,

997
00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:46,759
Speaker 2: that's a bad shot. That's just a straight up bad shot.

998
00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:48,480
Speaker 2: You can get a better one. But he is a playmaker.

999
00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:50,880
Speaker 2: I think with the Nate McMillan, you know, and this

1000
00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:53,600
Speaker 2: beef whatever you want to call it, he has he

1001
00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:56,640
Speaker 2: has until the calendar year to make sure they're still

1002
00:45:56,719 --> 00:45:59,359
Speaker 2: winning games and they're still like in the mix here

1003
00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:01,439
Speaker 2: in the Eastern Conferent fence because if they don't win,

1004
00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:03,960
Speaker 2: they're like a good chunk of their next thirteen games.

1005
00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:06,440
Speaker 2: They have an easy schedule to end the season, Like

1006
00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:08,920
Speaker 2: they have a lot of winnable games against teams like

1007
00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:11,279
Speaker 2: the Magic and the Hornets and you know, sorry, but

1008
00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:13,000
Speaker 2: the Bulls in there and the Pistons are in there

1009
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:14,480
Speaker 2: and the Piecers. You know, you should be able to

1010
00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:16,000
Speaker 2: beat a team like that if you're the Hawks, even

1011
00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:18,400
Speaker 2: the nets and knicks and stuff like that. A lot

1012
00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:21,040
Speaker 2: of winnable games. But if they hit a stretch here

1013
00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:24,319
Speaker 2: and this boils up and there's frustration, whatever, then Nate

1014
00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:27,080
Speaker 2: mc millan will be gone early twenty twenty three, Like

1015
00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:29,000
Speaker 2: he will just be fired and somebody will slide over

1016
00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:32,040
Speaker 2: or they'll get somebody else. But they should have a

1017
00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:33,840
Speaker 2: good record, I guess what I'm getting at, Like they

1018
00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:37,080
Speaker 2: should be top four in the Eastern Conference by twenty

1019
00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:39,040
Speaker 2: twenty three, I think when you look at the teams

1020
00:46:39,040 --> 00:46:39,439
Speaker 2: they play.

1021
00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:42,160
Speaker 3: But we'll see, and they currently are as we said,

1022
00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:45,680
Speaker 3: they are top fourther but their effort level has been

1023
00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:48,440
Speaker 3: a roller coaster this season as we've sat watching them

1024
00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:50,879
Speaker 3: quarter to quarter, and it's so inconsistent. Yeah, and it's

1025
00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:55,759
Speaker 3: understandable if the locker room isn't together, I can understand

1026
00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:57,839
Speaker 3: how the rest of the roster doesn't sort of fill

1027
00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:00,279
Speaker 3: in behind Trey and Dejonte Murray if they know that

1028
00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:05,640
Speaker 3: their lead guy is button heads pretty regularly. It sure

1029
00:47:05,640 --> 00:47:08,319
Speaker 3: feels like with Nate McMillan, if they know, even if

1030
00:47:08,320 --> 00:47:12,040
Speaker 3: there isn't button heads, that Tray isn't fully behind the

1031
00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:14,879
Speaker 3: head coach, how can that locker room be flowing all

1032
00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:17,319
Speaker 3: the time. So that's probably why we've seen an up

1033
00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:21,359
Speaker 3: and down effort. But I totally agree Nate's Nate's job

1034
00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:25,080
Speaker 3: that's on the line, and that would be the second

1035
00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:29,560
Speaker 3: coach that's gonzo with Trey Young button heads with him?

1036
00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:31,520
Speaker 2: Do you I mean, I know we're only going off

1037
00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:33,759
Speaker 2: the report, but do you think Nate mc millen had

1038
00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:35,480
Speaker 2: a point here though with Trey Young and like how

1039
00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:38,960
Speaker 2: he was approaching the rehab with the shoot around and like,

1040
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:39,680
Speaker 2: are you gonna.

1041
00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:39,960
Speaker 4: Be that really?

1042
00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:40,480
Speaker 2: Now?

1043
00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:42,480
Speaker 4: I think he's kind of overstepping his bounds. I don't

1044
00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:46,800
Speaker 4: think coaches are usually involved in the injury prevention and recovery,

1045
00:47:47,040 --> 00:47:49,319
Speaker 4: so I think it's probably he's probably a little bit

1046
00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:51,320
Speaker 4: over the line saying you got to come to shoot

1047
00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:54,080
Speaker 4: around and then you can go get treatment during walk through,

1048
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:54,880
Speaker 4: Like what's the difference?

1049
00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:58,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think this is natemc. Millen was a hard

1050
00:47:58,520 --> 00:48:00,160
Speaker 2: nosed player in the NBA, and I think I think

1051
00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:02,560
Speaker 2: it's a little bit of like he didn't miss a

1052
00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:04,080
Speaker 2: lot of games from what I can remember. You know,

1053
00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:06,399
Speaker 2: he couldn't because he's not a star like Trey Young.

1054
00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:08,880
Speaker 2: So I wonder if there's a bit of like, come on,

1055
00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:11,960
Speaker 2: he's thinking, he's pretty just you know, he's like come on,

1056
00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:13,879
Speaker 2: you know man, He's like, literally, man up here, get

1057
00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:16,799
Speaker 2: out here. But that's not how you in today's NBA,

1058
00:48:16,960 --> 00:48:18,200
Speaker 2: how you generally deal with your star.

1059
00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:21,239
Speaker 3: But it feels like relationship. It feels like regardless of

1060
00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:23,680
Speaker 3: the timing, whether or not when he was getting his

1061
00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:28,200
Speaker 3: shoulder worked on, like his shoulder was fine, and when

1062
00:48:28,239 --> 00:48:30,600
Speaker 3: it comes down to it, like you can get a

1063
00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:34,319
Speaker 3: shoulder worked on, but he played in the previous game,

1064
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:35,080
Speaker 3: is playing tonight.

1065
00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:39,239
Speaker 4: I don't like it. I just don't like it.

1066
00:48:39,360 --> 00:48:41,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess he wanted him out there for shoot around.

1067
00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:45,880
Speaker 3: Trey said, nah, thanks, shoot around. We're talking about shoot around.

1068
00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:46,160
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1069
00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:49,799
Speaker 3: I felt that way reading it like, come on, right,

1070
00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:51,360
Speaker 3: I don't need like why is this important?

1071
00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:53,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, like let me just get my shoulder worked on here,

1072
00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:56,200
Speaker 2: and but it's like, no, we're not doing it though

1073
00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:58,640
Speaker 2: he's just gotten it was a little stubborn but me,

1074
00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:02,799
Speaker 2: but to me that you're right task Like that's like

1075
00:49:02,920 --> 00:49:05,600
Speaker 2: build up. Yeah, that doesn't just happen just like that.

1076
00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:09,000
Speaker 2: That's like months, if not maybe even longer of like eah,

1077
00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:11,600
Speaker 2: disagreeing on how they're running things or how they're getting shots,

1078
00:49:11,719 --> 00:49:14,640
Speaker 2: whatever it is, how they're just going about being a professional. Even,

1079
00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:17,520
Speaker 2: that's when that builds up, and then you sort of snap, well, okay,

1080
00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:19,080
Speaker 2: then don't show up while you're coming off the bench,

1081
00:49:19,160 --> 00:49:20,600
Speaker 2: right yep, like an alternatum.

1082
00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:22,480
Speaker 3: And then they tried to bury it on Sunday, and

1083
00:49:22,680 --> 00:49:25,399
Speaker 3: the Hawks did a good job of burying their John

1084
00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:27,320
Speaker 3: Collin Trey Young riffs. A couple of years ago, I

1085
00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:29,880
Speaker 3: remember that it felt like the end then of Trey

1086
00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:32,719
Speaker 3: and John Collins. They buried it, they went onto a

1087
00:49:32,719 --> 00:49:35,279
Speaker 3: playoff run, so maybe they can do it again.

1088
00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:37,440
Speaker 2: TK. Who you got for a loser the weekend?

1089
00:49:38,080 --> 00:49:40,439
Speaker 4: I think Greg Popovitch was right that the Spurs aren't

1090
00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:43,400
Speaker 4: gonna win the title. You know two losses over the weekend,

1091
00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:47,840
Speaker 4: now eleven straight l's for San Antonio. It's the worst

1092
00:49:47,880 --> 00:49:51,080
Speaker 4: losing streak of Popovitch's career, though he wasn't around for

1093
00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:54,759
Speaker 4: these ones due to some medical concerns, but it's the

1094
00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:58,720
Speaker 4: second worst losing streak in Spurs history. The eleventh loss

1095
00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:02,080
Speaker 4: was a particularly bad one, lost by thirty eight to

1096
00:50:02,160 --> 00:50:05,719
Speaker 4: the Suns on Sunday, kind of expected the best team

1097
00:50:05,719 --> 00:50:07,880
Speaker 4: in the conference versus the worst team in the conference

1098
00:50:07,920 --> 00:50:11,640
Speaker 4: who happened to be missing four of their top eight players.

1099
00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:13,840
Speaker 4: Pointless to really break down the x's and o's of

1100
00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:16,560
Speaker 4: the Spurs, but they're clearly missing Yaka pearl a lot

1101
00:50:16,600 --> 00:50:19,479
Speaker 4: fifty four combined points for DeAndre eight and Dario Sarz

1102
00:50:19,520 --> 00:50:22,799
Speaker 4: and Jack Londale On Sunday, Zion, like we talked about,

1103
00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:25,440
Speaker 4: went for thirty on nine to fourteen shooting, and Valancunas

1104
00:50:25,480 --> 00:50:27,640
Speaker 4: had twenty one on eight of eleven. And the loss

1105
00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:31,520
Speaker 4: on Friday, they got no defense period and strictly no

1106
00:50:31,640 --> 00:50:35,239
Speaker 4: defense inside when Peardle's gone. So they've lost sixteen of

1107
00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:38,000
Speaker 4: the last seventeen. The Spurs have snuck in a win

1108
00:50:38,040 --> 00:50:40,719
Speaker 4: against the resting Bucks, which is pretty hilarious to look

1109
00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:43,560
Speaker 4: at when we're going back through the season. But they're

1110
00:50:43,600 --> 00:50:46,120
Speaker 4: now two losses from their all time worst streak, which

1111
00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:49,240
Speaker 4: was back in nineteen eighty nine. They don't play until Thursday.

1112
00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:52,359
Speaker 4: They've got Houston. That's a chance for a win. Right

1113
00:50:52,400 --> 00:50:57,040
Speaker 4: there after that it goes Miami, Cleveland, Portland, Miami. So

1114
00:50:57,080 --> 00:50:59,680
Speaker 4: I'm thinking I must win on Thursday for the Spurs,

1115
00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:02,319
Speaker 4: otherwise we might be looking at the worst Spurs team

1116
00:51:02,320 --> 00:51:05,600
Speaker 4: in history here. So you guys watching that Spurs game

1117
00:51:05,600 --> 00:51:08,120
Speaker 4: on Thursday, Spurs Rockets, there's only three games on.

1118
00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:11,000
Speaker 2: Oh well yeah, just three game babbling a little bit.

1119
00:51:11,800 --> 00:51:15,880
Speaker 4: That's a true sicko test, right there. Six wins versus

1120
00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:20,439
Speaker 4: five wins. Yeah, yeah, at least the Rockets entertaining. Yeah,

1121
00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:23,960
Speaker 4: this is look they started so strong too. I was,

1122
00:51:24,239 --> 00:51:26,800
Speaker 4: I was doing victory laps here in the Classic Factory.

1123
00:51:26,960 --> 00:51:28,720
Speaker 4: I told you not to bet the under on the Spurs.

1124
00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:29,560
Speaker 4: This is great Papovias.

1125
00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:31,839
Speaker 2: Man, They're gonna easily squeak out, you know, twenty five

1126
00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:34,839
Speaker 2: wins whatever they're low over runner was and not so sure.

1127
00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:39,000
Speaker 2: Now after losing sixteen to seventeen, they're gonna they're gonna

1128
00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:41,000
Speaker 2: have a good old chance at web Yama.

1129
00:51:41,239 --> 00:51:46,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's actually impressive how badly they're being beaten by.

1130
00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:50,080
Speaker 3: They're a minus twelve in the point differential category, so

1131
00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:53,120
Speaker 3: an average of twelve points they get beat by over

1132
00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:56,120
Speaker 3: the course of twenty four games. Here. The next team,

1133
00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:59,000
Speaker 3: the next bet worst team in the Western Conference is

1134
00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:02,360
Speaker 3: the Rockets underseat, So that's a pretty that's a pretty

1135
00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:05,399
Speaker 3: big margin. Yeah, and those are the only two bad

1136
00:52:05,400 --> 00:52:09,560
Speaker 3: teams in the Western Conference really, because the Thunder fairly

1137
00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:12,560
Speaker 3: solid at the thirteenth spot. It's a great conference and

1138
00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:14,719
Speaker 3: then we'll see the other two teams battle it out

1139
00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:15,360
Speaker 3: on Thursday.

1140
00:52:16,080 --> 00:52:17,960
Speaker 2: Bad news for the Spurs fans. I just did a

1141
00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:23,960
Speaker 2: good old Tankathon draft lottery simulator clicked it. Spurs fell

1142
00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:27,239
Speaker 2: the fifth I getting the fifth pick. Congratulations of the

1143
00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:30,040
Speaker 2: Pistons on the number one pick. Magic second, Hornet's third

1144
00:52:30,400 --> 00:52:31,719
Speaker 2: Okac jumping up there.

1145
00:52:31,960 --> 00:52:32,200
Speaker 3: Four.

1146
00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:34,960
Speaker 4: Well, the good thing is that our team is completely

1147
00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:37,440
Speaker 4: unwatchable and they're getting destroyed in every single game. But

1148
00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:39,320
Speaker 4: if they're going to get the fifth pick, it's totally

1149
00:52:40,120 --> 00:52:42,560
Speaker 4: some o. They're worse than the tanking Thunder teams that

1150
00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:45,080
Speaker 4: we've seen in the past couple of seasons. Yeah, which

1151
00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:46,879
Speaker 4: is almost impressive to be worse than them.

1152
00:52:47,680 --> 00:52:50,880
Speaker 2: A couple other mini losers of the weekend, if you

1153
00:52:50,880 --> 00:52:52,120
Speaker 2: want to call them that, I think we have the

1154
00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:55,840
Speaker 2: clip here. But Rudy Gobert ejected for tripping John Shuman's

1155
00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:59,719
Speaker 2: guy Kenrich Williams go bear rejected in the first half,

1156
00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:05,719
Speaker 2: an eventual loss after you know, he purposely tripped Williams. Yeah. Look,

1157
00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:08,680
Speaker 2: Williams scored on the floater at the rim. They sort

1158
00:53:08,719 --> 00:53:11,680
Speaker 2: of all fell. Gobert pissed off about that, and he

1159
00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:15,200
Speaker 2: just like swept a leg and down goes Williams and

1160
00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:18,520
Speaker 2: then he got up a little brief scuffle ensued, nothing

1161
00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:21,600
Speaker 2: too serious after the trip, but Gobert assessed a flagrant

1162
00:53:21,600 --> 00:53:25,760
Speaker 2: two fel thrown out his fifth ejection first as a wolf,

1163
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:29,600
Speaker 2: and Williams got a tech there as well. But I

1164
00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:32,200
Speaker 2: mean this is bad. I mean, Gobert lost his temper.

1165
00:53:32,560 --> 00:53:34,239
Speaker 2: I think I don't know, you guy, guess you could

1166
00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:38,320
Speaker 2: argue is that enough to warn an ejection? Yeah? Okay,

1167
00:53:38,680 --> 00:53:41,239
Speaker 2: but the officiating of this game was but I mean

1168
00:53:41,280 --> 00:53:43,920
Speaker 2: it was brutal. Did you see there was an egregious

1169
00:53:43,960 --> 00:53:46,480
Speaker 2: charging call on Anthony Edwards sort of late in this

1170
00:53:46,560 --> 00:53:50,440
Speaker 2: game should have been overturned, and it somehow wasn't wild

1171
00:53:50,440 --> 00:53:53,120
Speaker 2: wild call. But the Wolves lost their composure. They had

1172
00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:57,640
Speaker 2: five technical fouls and they needed go beart. You're playing,

1173
00:53:57,760 --> 00:54:00,960
Speaker 2: okay See. This is a small front line. He could

1174
00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:02,480
Speaker 2: have done work, and you know why, I know that

1175
00:54:02,600 --> 00:54:05,359
Speaker 2: he was killing it before he got tossed and nos

1176
00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:08,080
Speaker 2: Reed came in and put up a monster line. You know,

1177
00:54:08,600 --> 00:54:13,160
Speaker 2: admirable job by nos Reed. Eighteen rebounds, thirteen points, four blocks.

1178
00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:16,880
Speaker 2: But the Wolves also allowed okay See to shoot, you know,

1179
00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:19,800
Speaker 2: fifty two percent from the field and sixty six points

1180
00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:21,719
Speaker 2: in the paint. That's probably not happening. If Go Bear

1181
00:54:21,840 --> 00:54:23,719
Speaker 2: is playing in this game, they obviously don't have cat

1182
00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:27,880
Speaker 2: so he you know, he lost his temper and I

1183
00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:29,600
Speaker 2: think was a big reason why they lost the game.

1184
00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:33,040
Speaker 2: My gut says, the Wolves chances are much much better

1185
00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:35,640
Speaker 2: of pulling this victory out against okay See. If Go

1186
00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:37,440
Speaker 2: Bears playing and they need all the wednes, they can't get,

1187
00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:40,000
Speaker 2: so gotta get him a loser there. Temper boy got

1188
00:54:40,080 --> 00:54:40,799
Speaker 2: to get my temper boy.

1189
00:54:40,840 --> 00:54:43,600
Speaker 4: It's on temper boy. He's a long standing temper boy.

1190
00:54:43,600 --> 00:54:46,640
Speaker 4: I remember an ejection many moons ago with the Jazz

1191
00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:49,319
Speaker 4: when he just smacked a water bot. Oh yeah, that

1192
00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:51,600
Speaker 4: was a great cliff. I feel like this is a

1193
00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:55,680
Speaker 4: pretty fair rejection. That's a tough fall for Kenrick Williams especially.

1194
00:54:55,719 --> 00:54:57,399
Speaker 4: I mean, you can tell he's running back up the court.

1195
00:54:57,400 --> 00:55:02,640
Speaker 4: He's not expected any head over heels, basically, But Timberwolves

1196
00:55:02,680 --> 00:55:04,200
Speaker 4: got to look themselves in the mirror pretty soon and

1197
00:55:04,360 --> 00:55:07,200
Speaker 4: start getting serious about their season. They needed Rudy's screen

1198
00:55:07,239 --> 00:55:07,839
Speaker 4: assists out there.

1199
00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:11,319
Speaker 2: Really odds up some room for them. And you're right,

1200
00:55:11,360 --> 00:55:13,520
Speaker 2: it's not like you can't even convince yourself. It was

1201
00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:16,600
Speaker 2: accidental in the sense that he like tripped him like

1202
00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:20,520
Speaker 2: he very much pretty bad. So leaves the legs of rightfully.

1203
00:55:20,239 --> 00:55:23,600
Speaker 3: Gone good for Kenrich. He was pretty cool under the

1204
00:55:23,640 --> 00:55:25,319
Speaker 3: collar there he could have got. He could have got

1205
00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:26,360
Speaker 3: way more man.

1206
00:55:26,239 --> 00:55:27,600
Speaker 2: Cool, little cool. Under the mullet.

1207
00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:29,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's got a cool mollet.

1208
00:55:29,680 --> 00:55:33,040
Speaker 2: It's got a crazy look. He does very unique hairstyle there.

1209
00:55:33,560 --> 00:55:35,400
Speaker 3: I said cool, You said crazy. You don't want to

1210
00:55:35,440 --> 00:55:37,960
Speaker 3: You don't want to call the mullet cool. There's not

1211
00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:41,360
Speaker 3: too many cool mullets out there. Kenrich did it. He

1212
00:55:41,400 --> 00:55:44,359
Speaker 3: did it. He could give Gordon Hayward some tips Gordon

1213
00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:48,480
Speaker 3: Hayward's mullet not cool. Kenrichs cool. Okay, it's cool. He's been,

1214
00:55:48,600 --> 00:55:51,520
Speaker 3: he's dedicated to He's very years of that mullet.

1215
00:55:51,880 --> 00:55:53,880
Speaker 2: I want to give a mini loser the weekend to

1216
00:55:54,080 --> 00:55:58,239
Speaker 2: the Matinee LA Clippers because they suffered their worst loss

1217
00:55:58,280 --> 00:56:01,279
Speaker 2: on Saturday to the sacrament Will Beams. In fact, they

1218
00:56:01,320 --> 00:56:06,480
Speaker 2: were chanting light the Beam in law now Kawhi and

1219
00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:09,960
Speaker 2: Paul George. They went through light practice apparently on Friday

1220
00:56:10,360 --> 00:56:12,799
Speaker 2: they were upgraded to questionable for Saturday's game. They did

1221
00:56:12,840 --> 00:56:14,960
Speaker 2: not play. They're going on this road trip, but they

1222
00:56:14,960 --> 00:56:16,840
Speaker 2: did not play, and that sucks. There's no Lukenard for

1223
00:56:16,840 --> 00:56:19,040
Speaker 2: the Clippers. He's been out for a while. Norm Powell

1224
00:56:19,080 --> 00:56:21,600
Speaker 2: was out after obviously having some big games last week.

1225
00:56:21,640 --> 00:56:23,960
Speaker 2: He's got a groin injury. I think that he's sustained

1226
00:56:24,040 --> 00:56:26,439
Speaker 2: in Portland there on Tuesday and the Clippers just got

1227
00:56:26,440 --> 00:56:28,799
Speaker 2: hammered twenty two points. They were down at the half.

1228
00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:31,279
Speaker 2: It was down to thirty one at one point, and

1229
00:56:31,320 --> 00:56:33,960
Speaker 2: like I said, they were chanting light the Beam. Hollandre tweeted,

1230
00:56:34,960 --> 00:56:36,719
Speaker 2: and it had me thinking, I'm like, is he right?

1231
00:56:37,480 --> 00:56:40,600
Speaker 2: Hallandre tweeted the Clippers have lost every daytime home game

1232
00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:43,840
Speaker 2: of the Kawhi PG era by at least thirty points.

1233
00:56:43,840 --> 00:56:47,200
Speaker 2: Proved me wrong, and I was like, damn, that feels right,

1234
00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:49,400
Speaker 2: but that can't be. So I looked at the numbers.

1235
00:56:49,600 --> 00:56:50,319
Speaker 3: No way, just.

1236
00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:55,200
Speaker 2: Quickly quick statue. John is uh, he's going off a

1237
00:56:55,239 --> 00:56:59,000
Speaker 2: little recency bias. Sure, But the Clippers have played four

1238
00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:02,759
Speaker 2: afternoon home games this season. The records won in three.

1239
00:57:03,160 --> 00:57:05,040
Speaker 2: So they beat the Pacers by fourteen in one of

1240
00:57:05,040 --> 00:57:07,360
Speaker 2: their games, and they got spanked in the other three.

1241
00:57:07,719 --> 00:57:10,680
Speaker 2: Johnny's right here. Pelicans beat him by twenty one, Nets

1242
00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:13,359
Speaker 2: beat him by fifteen, Kings beat him by twenty seven.

1243
00:57:13,480 --> 00:57:15,719
Speaker 2: And then if you go back the year prior, they

1244
00:57:15,760 --> 00:57:18,920
Speaker 2: played seven afternoon home games, but guess what, they went

1245
00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:21,680
Speaker 2: five and seven, So they had a decent record in

1246
00:57:21,720 --> 00:57:27,200
Speaker 2: those weird weekend seven five and two second games. But

1247
00:57:28,520 --> 00:57:31,840
Speaker 2: here's where Hollander's memory is coming in. Here. The losses

1248
00:57:32,360 --> 00:57:35,720
Speaker 2: are spank jobs. So they win some of those games,

1249
00:57:35,720 --> 00:57:37,400
Speaker 2: but when they lose, they lose. They lost to the

1250
00:57:37,440 --> 00:57:40,200
Speaker 2: Warriors and the Grizzlies again by fifteen points. This is

1251
00:57:40,280 --> 00:57:42,600
Speaker 2: last year. And then I think one more for good

1252
00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:46,560
Speaker 2: measure here twenty twenty one. That season, they played six

1253
00:57:46,680 --> 00:57:49,760
Speaker 2: matine home games. They went three and three, but they

1254
00:57:49,960 --> 00:57:53,000
Speaker 2: lost one game to the Dallas Mavericks by a score

1255
00:57:53,040 --> 00:57:55,120
Speaker 2: of one twenty four to seventy three. It was just

1256
00:57:55,160 --> 00:57:59,240
Speaker 2: after Christmas. Yeah, okay, I think this is what's happening.

1257
00:57:58,960 --> 00:58:02,720
Speaker 3: With Holland and Effect. I too was buying I know, right,

1258
00:58:03,040 --> 00:58:04,080
Speaker 3: but they you know, last.

1259
00:58:03,920 --> 00:58:05,640
Speaker 2: Year they wanted these amount of these games, either on

1260
00:58:05,680 --> 00:58:08,120
Speaker 2: Saturday or Sunday when they play like twelve thirty or

1261
00:58:08,120 --> 00:58:11,480
Speaker 2: one o'clock starts there. But anyway, they got embarrassed. They

1262
00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:14,520
Speaker 2: don't have their team and like, come on, are these

1263
00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:17,840
Speaker 2: guys gonna play? I guess they are at some point

1264
00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:20,919
Speaker 2: on this road trip. I know they're playing the very

1265
00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:23,720
Speaker 2: long game of having them healthy by the playoffs, but

1266
00:58:24,400 --> 00:58:25,840
Speaker 2: rough rough loss. I don't if you have any thoughts

1267
00:58:25,880 --> 00:58:27,040
Speaker 2: on the mattnee clips.

1268
00:58:27,280 --> 00:58:29,200
Speaker 3: They are playing the long game. They're playing the long

1269
00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:35,200
Speaker 3: John Hollinger Silver game. I get it, but yeah, it's

1270
00:58:35,200 --> 00:58:38,080
Speaker 3: hard to watch. It's hard to watch in the short term. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

1271
00:58:38,200 --> 00:58:41,000
Speaker 2: You don't need to. You can avoid Clippers Mattinee games

1272
00:58:41,040 --> 00:58:43,120
Speaker 2: even if they win some of these on the weekend.

1273
00:58:43,400 --> 00:58:45,960
Speaker 2: Final loser of the weekend. I hate to do it,

1274
00:58:45,960 --> 00:58:48,920
Speaker 2: but I got it. The NBA app I just had

1275
00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:53,920
Speaker 2: a qualm about it that really drove me nuts. Jad

1276
00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:56,840
Speaker 2: you got a picture because you know this is Friday night,

1277
00:58:57,120 --> 00:58:58,800
Speaker 2: all these great games are on. Like we were talking

1278
00:58:58,840 --> 00:59:03,720
Speaker 2: about bouncing around like a loser on Friday night, sitting

1279
00:59:03,720 --> 00:59:07,080
Speaker 2: at home, taking in the basketball like a sicico. And

1280
00:59:07,120 --> 00:59:10,439
Speaker 2: I noticed they show you the score. You can turn

1281
00:59:10,440 --> 00:59:12,040
Speaker 2: that on and off. You can toggle that if you want.

1282
00:59:13,160 --> 00:59:14,840
Speaker 2: They don't show you what the time is in the

1283
00:59:14,880 --> 00:59:18,560
Speaker 2: game or even the quarter, So it's really annoying. When

1284
00:59:18,560 --> 00:59:21,000
Speaker 2: you've got a bunch of games going on and you're

1285
00:59:21,040 --> 00:59:23,400
Speaker 2: seeing some close scores, you're like, ooh, it might jump

1286
00:59:23,400 --> 00:59:24,959
Speaker 2: over to see that one, like to see the finish

1287
00:59:25,040 --> 00:59:28,440
Speaker 2: of that one, but you don't know. I don't know

1288
00:59:28,560 --> 00:59:30,760
Speaker 2: is it the third quarter? Is it late fourth? Like

1289
00:59:30,760 --> 00:59:34,040
Speaker 2: with today's scores, you can't really tell anymore. So it's like,

1290
00:59:34,800 --> 00:59:36,200
Speaker 2: just put up a you know what I would be

1291
00:59:36,200 --> 00:59:38,680
Speaker 2: happy with. Don't even tell me the exact time left

1292
00:59:38,680 --> 00:59:42,280
Speaker 2: in the quarter. Give me like early fourth, mid fourth,

1293
00:59:42,520 --> 00:59:44,720
Speaker 2: late fourth, Like, just give me a ballpark so I

1294
00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:47,680
Speaker 2: can save myself from clicking over, which is also a pain.

1295
00:59:47,720 --> 00:59:50,400
Speaker 2: In the ass. Too many clicks to get to another game.

1296
00:59:51,480 --> 00:59:54,040
Speaker 3: Anyway, Yeah, there's a little too many clicks. Can I

1297
00:59:54,120 --> 00:59:56,160
Speaker 3: ask what device are you watching?

1298
00:59:56,200 --> 00:59:57,200
Speaker 2: On Apple TV?

1299
00:59:57,680 --> 01:00:00,800
Speaker 3: That was the Apple TV. Yeah, yeah, that's that's the

1300
01:00:00,800 --> 01:00:03,080
Speaker 3: way to do it. I too watch on Apple TV.

1301
01:00:03,160 --> 01:00:05,240
Speaker 2: Don't you think that's that's should be fixed. I think

1302
01:00:05,240 --> 01:00:06,960
Speaker 2: it should tell you that at least the score, I

1303
01:00:06,960 --> 01:00:07,880
Speaker 2: mean the time.

1304
01:00:07,680 --> 01:00:12,240
Speaker 3: In almost I watched those games nightly on it Apple TV.

1305
01:00:12,360 --> 01:00:14,280
Speaker 3: I almost don't believe that they don't have the.

1306
01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:15,720
Speaker 4: Time I want to see.

1307
01:00:15,840 --> 01:00:18,880
Speaker 3: I think it does TV.

1308
01:00:18,960 --> 01:00:19,960
Speaker 4: I can't, I can't, can't.

1309
01:00:21,600 --> 01:00:23,800
Speaker 3: I'm gonna take a nice photo tonight.

1310
01:00:23,880 --> 01:00:25,800
Speaker 2: Let me know. Do you think I need to update something?

1311
01:00:26,160 --> 01:00:27,400
Speaker 3: Maybe there's just a bug that night?

1312
01:00:27,480 --> 01:00:29,480
Speaker 2: Or is it just because you know you think there

1313
01:00:29,520 --> 01:00:30,240
Speaker 2: would be the time there?

1314
01:00:30,240 --> 01:00:33,800
Speaker 5: You're right, I'm the same. I think I've seen quarters

1315
01:00:33,840 --> 01:00:34,960
Speaker 5: in times got it.

1316
01:00:35,880 --> 01:00:38,480
Speaker 2: It wasn't there, so maybe it was a bug. Maybe

1317
01:00:38,680 --> 01:00:42,840
Speaker 2: I have been having a look the NBA app. It's new,

1318
01:00:43,040 --> 01:00:45,120
Speaker 2: you know this year I've been having a lot of

1319
01:00:45,120 --> 01:00:47,240
Speaker 2: success with like it's been working really well for me,

1320
01:00:47,440 --> 01:00:48,800
Speaker 2: like way better than years prior.

1321
01:00:48,920 --> 01:00:53,200
Speaker 3: I like it, and they got well a little fine

1322
01:00:53,200 --> 01:00:53,959
Speaker 3: to and I.

1323
01:00:53,880 --> 01:00:56,280
Speaker 2: See some people though, like it's still an issue for them,

1324
01:00:56,320 --> 01:00:58,480
Speaker 2: and I think it depends on the platform. And I

1325
01:00:58,480 --> 01:01:00,480
Speaker 2: don't know if you're an Android or whatever, but like

1326
01:01:01,360 --> 01:01:04,800
Speaker 2: I now, recently the bugs are coming. Yeah, it's like

1327
01:01:04,880 --> 01:01:06,600
Speaker 2: I suddenly couldn't watch a game the other night. I'm like,

1328
01:01:06,640 --> 01:01:08,800
Speaker 2: what's going on here? Anyway?

1329
01:01:08,840 --> 01:01:12,880
Speaker 3: No more bump Boccolini's in the road. It's been smooth sailing.

1330
01:01:13,920 --> 01:01:20,040
Speaker 3: What they need them need them stop yourself, stop anyway

1357
01:02:30,360 --> 01:02:32,880
Speaker 3: was a It wasn't a good angle. Is that how hard?

Speaker 3: Rather than no? No, it was a kind But the

1359
01:02:36,880 --> 01:02:39,400

Speaker 3: when he gave me the pat that was free. Yeah,

1361
01:02:41,720 --> 01:02:44,480
Speaker 3: so I think it was just it was a hard one.

1362
01:02:44,520 --> 01:02:45,280
Speaker 4: I'll move my elbow.

1363
01:02:45,320 --> 01:02:47,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, now I can. I can go hard, no problem.

1364
01:02:48,000 --> 01:02:50,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, no elbow on the table. I was expecting it before.

1365
01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:55,160

01:03:24,080 --> 01:03:24,680
Speaker 2: out there twice.

1380
01:03:24,960 --> 01:03:28,120
Speaker 5: Why is it an alternate mix or like.

1381
01:03:28,840 --> 01:03:30,640
Speaker 4: I don't know, it's been so long since I heard

1382
01:03:30,640 --> 01:03:32,400
Speaker 4: the first one. By the time the last one came on,

1383
01:03:32,520 --> 01:03:34,720
Speaker 4: I thought it was a remix, but I didn't say remix.

1384
01:03:35,040 --> 01:03:37,400
Speaker 4: I don't know, it's not. I didn't know what what

1385
01:03:37,520 --> 01:03:39,439
Speaker 4: to expect when I got the bony M tip.

1386
01:03:39,960 --> 01:03:40,960
Speaker 2: I couldn't believe.

1387
01:03:40,720 --> 01:03:47,520
Speaker 7: You to Oh my god, like that's a stample in

1388
01:03:47,520 --> 01:03:51,960
Speaker 7: our house. Absolutely, yeah, Norris convinced the best like Christmas.

1389
01:03:51,520 --> 01:03:53,040
Speaker 3: Home, I think, yeah, that's fair.

1390
01:03:53,160 --> 01:03:56,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm glad you got it bumping in

1391
01:03:56,760 --> 01:04:00,240
Speaker 2: the house and the rotation now for sure? Great great. Oh.

1392
01:04:00,280 --> 01:04:02,880
Speaker 2: I was gonna ask you when did he tap you,

1393
01:04:02,960 --> 01:04:04,640
Speaker 2: like when you were leaving the voting boot like did

1394
01:04:04,680 --> 01:04:07,280
Speaker 2: you guys you obviously voted around the same time, tap

1395
01:04:07,320 --> 01:04:08,800
Speaker 2: after or tap on, you're heading in like.

1396
01:04:08,720 --> 01:04:11,440
Speaker 3: That when he left. When he left, he departed just

1397
01:04:11,480 --> 01:04:14,000
Speaker 3: before me. He said, what a what a moment.

1398
01:04:14,080 --> 01:04:19,360
Speaker 2: We shared exchange numbers like no, no, it could have

1399
01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:22,520
Speaker 2: got he could celebrate a Warnock victory here coming up,

1400
01:04:22,760 --> 01:04:23,320
Speaker 2: Grab a beer.

1401
01:04:23,400 --> 01:04:25,080
Speaker 3: I don't care. I don't care who he was woting for.

1402
01:04:25,160 --> 01:04:28,600
Speaker 3: I don't know who. I'm reaching across the aisle. I

1403
01:04:28,640 --> 01:04:31,720
Speaker 3: am reaching across the aisle. It doesn't matter your stripe.

1404
01:04:32,080 --> 01:04:34,000
Speaker 3: We're all in the same boat. I helped him. I

1405
01:04:34,040 --> 01:04:36,040
Speaker 3: had no idea who he voted for, to peek over

1406
01:04:36,080 --> 01:04:38,960
Speaker 3: his shoulder to check who if he was, If he

1407
01:04:39,040 --> 01:04:42,160
Speaker 3: was requesting a Democratic or a Republican ballot, maybe.

1408
01:04:41,840 --> 01:04:44,440
Speaker 2: Well, I'm gonna judge him. If he voted for Herschel Walker.

1409
01:04:45,360 --> 01:04:48,440
Speaker 3: Herschel Junior Walker shows up on the ballot. A Junior

1410
01:04:48,440 --> 01:04:51,360
Speaker 3: comes out of nowhere like a bony Elm album.

1411
01:04:51,720 --> 01:04:54,200
Speaker 5: But the album, Hey, you have to ask for a

1412
01:04:54,240 --> 01:04:55,680
Speaker 5: specific party.

1413
01:04:56,040 --> 01:04:59,760
Speaker 3: Balls up to you. It's more about you can ask

1414
01:04:59,840 --> 01:05:03,160
Speaker 3: for Democratic, Republican or nonpart is, but it's more for

1415
01:05:03,280 --> 01:05:05,760
Speaker 3: the other elections rather than this one vote where you

1416
01:05:05,840 --> 01:05:12,120
Speaker 3: voted for one single. First off, fascinating, Yeah, yeah, it

1417
01:05:12,160 --> 01:05:12,600
Speaker 3: is fascin.

1418
01:05:14,240 --> 01:05:17,000
Speaker 2: Let's go the Lakers Bucks game Friday night. It was

1419
01:05:17,040 --> 01:05:18,680
Speaker 2: one of the games of the year. Trey said it.

1420
01:05:18,920 --> 01:05:21,240
Speaker 2: Milwaukee was favored by eight and a half in that game.

1421
01:05:21,360 --> 01:05:23,840
Speaker 2: Maybe a little Chris Middleton bump on that one, you know,

1422
01:05:23,920 --> 01:05:27,560
Speaker 2: primetime bump. But the Lakers only kept a close day,

1423
01:05:27,560 --> 01:05:29,920
Speaker 2: straight up one. That's happening a lot here. I've noticed

1424
01:05:29,920 --> 01:05:33,720
Speaker 2: in our pickup games, not just covers straight ups.

1425
01:05:34,080 --> 01:05:37,240
Speaker 4: SU's at the one.

1426
01:05:37,320 --> 01:05:39,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, Trey had Milwaukee, though, that's a loss for you.

1427
01:05:39,160 --> 01:05:41,280
Speaker 2: You're zero to two in the month of December. Task

1428
01:05:41,400 --> 01:05:43,360
Speaker 2: is perfect to and oh and I improved to one

1429
01:05:43,400 --> 01:05:45,000
Speaker 2: in one. What's tonight's game.

1430
01:05:45,800 --> 01:05:48,400
Speaker 3: Down at State Farm Marina. I want to see how

1431
01:05:48,440 --> 01:05:52,240
Speaker 3: the Hawks respond after this report. Yeah, they're hosting Okay, see,

1432
01:05:52,880 --> 01:05:55,760
Speaker 3: favored by five and a half points, Trey and I

1433
01:05:55,880 --> 01:05:59,600
Speaker 3: think they will handle the thunder fine skeits. You got

1434
01:06:00,920 --> 01:06:01,720
Speaker 3: it was a tough one.

1435
01:06:02,440 --> 01:06:05,840
Speaker 2: Tough one man trying to figure out the Atlanta Hawks

1436
01:06:05,920 --> 01:06:08,600
Speaker 2: is next to him possible. That's the honest truth. They

1437
01:06:08,680 --> 01:06:10,400
Speaker 2: don't win a couple of games, will lose a couple games,

1438
01:06:10,440 --> 01:06:11,800
Speaker 2: win a couple games, and lose a couple of games.

1439
01:06:11,800 --> 01:06:13,240
Speaker 2: It look good one quarter it look brutal in the

1440
01:06:13,280 --> 01:06:15,840
Speaker 2: next it's under a good team. They're in a it

1441
01:06:15,880 --> 01:06:17,520
Speaker 2: feels like they're in a lot of games. So maybe

1442
01:06:17,600 --> 01:06:19,880
Speaker 2: like even this is a Hawks win by two or three,

1443
01:06:20,120 --> 01:06:23,080
Speaker 2: you know, comes down to a final shot. But uh yeah,

1444
01:06:23,360 --> 01:06:25,520
Speaker 2: I just can't figure out the Hawks. So I just

1445
01:06:25,560 --> 01:06:27,840
Speaker 2: swerved a little bit. I want to get down to

1446
01:06:27,880 --> 01:06:30,240
Speaker 2: this game tonight. I realized I'd love to see Sga.

1447
01:06:30,920 --> 01:06:31,400
Speaker 2: Is he playing?

1448
01:06:32,400 --> 01:06:33,760
Speaker 4: The only chance would beat tonight?

1449
01:06:33,960 --> 01:06:37,280
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, we did get a message from somebody coming

1450
01:06:37,520 --> 01:06:39,760
Speaker 3: from out of town. Yeah, so that Hey, I'm gonna

01:06:39,760 --> 01:06:40,520

1452
01:06:40,720 --> 01:06:42,120
Speaker 2: You caught me by surprise that they were here. I

1453
01:06:42,160 --> 01:06:46,360
Speaker 2: gotta be honest. There's too many games, too many games

1454
01:06:46,400 --> 01:06:48,360

1505
01:09:06,400 --> 01:09:09,040

Speaker 2: in the day where he was taking jumpers from ninety feet.

1507

1513
01:09:27,640 --> 01:09:28,679
Speaker 2: the thing. That's the best part.

1514
01:09:28,560 --> 01:09:30,960
Speaker 4: About it, exactly right. You could only do this with

1515
01:09:31,160 --> 01:09:34,800
Speaker 4: Steph and have people even consider the fact that it

1516
01:09:34,960 --> 01:09:38,320
Speaker 4: was real. Maybe just one toss would have been enough.

1517
01:09:38,920 --> 01:09:41,560
Speaker 4: If it was one toss and it went in, everyone's.

1518

Speaker 2: What about to make it more believable? The five shots?

1522
01:09:47,439 --> 01:09:51,479
Speaker 2: Throw a miss in there, Throw a miss in on

1523

Speaker 2: the third or fourth one. Nobody's gonna be Everyone's gonna

01:09:54,720 --> 01:09:57,120
Speaker 2: still go nuts, and then you're really gonna believe it

01:10:16,400 --> 01:10:18,360
Speaker 2: is of course a deep fake or whatever you want

1532
01:10:18,360 --> 01:10:22,040
Speaker 2: to call it. It's fake that s I tweeted this,

1533
01:10:23,080 --> 01:10:25,280
Speaker 2: and then I think the Warriors maybe retweeted it as well,

1534
01:10:25,479 --> 01:10:28,240
Speaker 2: and people are pissed off in the sense like that

1535
01:10:28,439 --> 01:10:31,400
Speaker 2: that that shouldn't be there. They're upset that, like a

1536
01:10:31,720 --> 01:10:37,040
Speaker 2: real reputable Yeah, yeah, that's like that. They would that

1537
01:10:37,080 --> 01:10:38,599
Speaker 2: they would share it be one thing of no dunk

1538
01:10:38,640 --> 01:10:41,720
Speaker 2: share this or whoever, like some silly fun account. But

1539
01:10:42,040 --> 01:10:46,360
Speaker 2: for s I, for the Warriors, you can't trust any

1540
01:10:46,439 --> 01:10:49,400
Speaker 2: single tweet from them ever again, so.

1541
01:10:49,479 --> 01:10:51,439
Speaker 8: I thought maybe this would be we're s week running there,

1542
01:10:52,920 --> 01:10:56,080
Speaker 8: what do you think? No, you can't trust anything. You

1543
01:10:56,240 --> 01:11:01,720
Speaker 8: can't trust anything. Citizen journalism shat app nothing and you

1544
01:11:01,800 --> 01:11:03,679
Speaker 8: can't trust anything.

1545
01:11:03,760 --> 01:11:06,280
Speaker 3: You literally can't. You have to do your you have

1546
01:11:06,360 --> 01:11:08,439
Speaker 3: to do your I don't want to. I don't want

1547
01:11:08,439 --> 01:11:10,000
Speaker 3: to do it. I don't want to do it. What

1548
01:11:10,080 --> 01:11:12,040
Speaker 3: about the Doctor Pepper Challenge out there? To see the

1549
01:11:12,080 --> 01:11:13,040
Speaker 3: Doctor Pepper Challenge?

1550
01:11:13,600 --> 01:11:14,800
Speaker 2: They gave them both money I heard.

1551
01:11:14,880 --> 01:11:16,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was confused watching that live.

1552
01:11:17,200 --> 01:11:18,280
Speaker 2: You want to explain it for some of that.

1553
01:11:18,960 --> 01:11:21,439
Speaker 3: So, well, you brought up the jugs the NFL Dugs

1554
01:11:21,479 --> 01:11:25,200
Speaker 3: and there was a college football competition. Yeah, two women

1555
01:11:25,439 --> 01:11:28,599
Speaker 3: were firing these footballs. They were doing chess passes.

1556
01:11:28,680 --> 01:11:30,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're allowed to do that for sure, that far years.

1557
01:11:30,840 --> 01:11:34,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's way more efficient. Yeah, And so they're they're

1558
01:11:34,280 --> 01:11:36,600
Speaker 3: firing it through these large holes which are whatever. They

1559
01:11:36,640 --> 01:11:39,439
Speaker 3: are thirty feet away, and it felt like they finished

1560
01:11:39,439 --> 01:11:43,120
Speaker 3: at the exact same time. But they the announcer said

1561
01:11:43,160 --> 01:11:46,559
Speaker 3: immediately that one person won, and I was surprising they

1562
01:11:46,640 --> 01:11:49,840
Speaker 3: have they it was basically at the exact same time.

1563
01:11:49,960 --> 01:11:52,679
Speaker 3: It was was within a maybe a point zero zero

1564
01:11:52,800 --> 01:11:56,400
Speaker 3: zero one seconds. Yeah, hitting they said they went to

1565
01:11:56,479 --> 01:11:58,880
Speaker 3: a tiebreaker. Even in the tiebreaker they were tied. It

1566
01:11:58,960 --> 01:12:01,360
Speaker 3: was pretty phenomenal game.

1567
01:12:01,520 --> 01:12:01,720
Speaker 1: It was.

1568
01:12:02,000 --> 01:12:04,640
Speaker 3: It was a great match between these two women. And

1569
01:12:04,720 --> 01:12:08,599
Speaker 3: eventually I think they get a tuition. Yeah, the award

1570
01:12:08,720 --> 01:12:12,120
Speaker 3: is tuition, uh for college, which is great.

1571
01:12:12,200 --> 01:12:14,680
Speaker 2: Hold on, are you saying these are fake? No, the

1572
01:12:14,680 --> 01:12:15,320
Speaker 2: clips are fick.

1625
01:14:33,120 --> 01:14:36,880

01:14:52,760 --> 01:14:54,360
Speaker 4: but that's like nineties and maybe they remade it.

1633
01:14:54,360 --> 01:14:56,120
Speaker 2: I don't know. There's so many of them though.

1634

1638
01:15:06,680 --> 01:15:10,680

1639
01:15:10,960 --> 01:15:13,560
Speaker 4: We input the statistics ahead of the show and it

1640
01:15:13,680 --> 01:15:14,960
Speaker 4: just rambles off stuff.

1641
01:15:16,479 --> 01:15:18,439
Speaker 2: There's like you can turn up the pun guns setting

1642
01:15:18,520 --> 01:15:21,519
Speaker 2: on tasks, so you switch it up. Some days it's

1643
01:15:21,600 --> 01:15:24,719
Speaker 2: like through the roof. Some days, you know, pretty normal, normal,

1644
01:15:25,439 --> 01:15:25,880
Speaker 2: it's cool.

1645
01:15:26,000 --> 01:15:29,720
Speaker 3: We're going to be replaced soon. Great, I can't wait.

1646
01:15:31,800 --> 01:15:32,760

1651
01:15:41,640 --> 01:15:42,400
Speaker 2: I like that idea.

1652
01:15:42,520 --> 01:15:44,679
Speaker 4: We've got a fake viral video. Something cool, it's fake.

1653
01:15:44,840 --> 01:15:47,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, what could we do? What would we do?

1654
01:15:49,040 --> 01:15:50,160
Speaker 4: What could we do?

1655
01:15:50,520 --> 01:15:50,560
Speaker 2: So?

1656
01:15:50,720 --> 01:15:53,280
Speaker 3: You mean like something physical, like I'm.

1657
01:15:53,120 --> 01:15:57,120
Speaker 2: Telling something that's like here in the Classic Factory. But

1658
01:15:57,280 --> 01:15:59,400
Speaker 2: it's like I don't know, like I could could I could?

1659
01:15:59,439 --> 01:16:02,280
Speaker 2: I Like, I don't could Tray be like I don't

1660
01:16:02,280 --> 01:16:04,160
Speaker 2: know why I just thought of that, But Tray's like

1661
01:16:04,280 --> 01:16:06,400
Speaker 2: Hey man, can you grab me some coffee? And so

1662
01:16:06,560 --> 01:16:10,080

01:16:10,200 --> 01:16:12,720
Speaker 2: my coffee, you know, just like we all make it

1664
01:16:12,800 --> 01:16:15,360
Speaker 2: nonchalant like we always do it. So my coffee comes

1665
01:16:15,400 --> 01:16:18,000
Speaker 2: flying out of my cup into his chairs.

1666
01:16:18,240 --> 01:16:18,639
Speaker 4: Perfect.

1667
01:16:19,280 --> 01:16:21,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's get to tweeted the night, you know, right

Speaker 4: If you got an idea, let us knownology.

1670
01:16:27,640 --> 01:16:30,879
Speaker 2: It's not bad for right on the spot, and people.

1671
01:16:30,680 --> 01:16:34,080
Speaker 5: Would speculate is the classic factory in space because it

1672
01:16:34,080 --> 01:16:38,000
Speaker 5: would be like, what if that was a thing, we

1673
01:16:38,160 --> 01:16:40,439
Speaker 5: just start floating around all right? Shows over and then

1674
01:16:40,479 --> 01:16:43,080
Speaker 5: behind the scenes just float off it.

1675
01:16:43,160 --> 01:16:47,519
Speaker 2: That'd be a fun pick them in the anti gravity

1676
01:16:47,840 --> 01:16:48,320
Speaker 2: unit there?

1677
01:16:49,080 --> 01:16:51,519
Speaker 5: What anti granted, well not that we have one, but like,

1678
01:16:51,600 --> 01:16:52,760
Speaker 5: go to one and.

1679
01:16:52,880 --> 01:16:53,360
Speaker 4: Do the show.

1680
01:16:53,439 --> 01:16:56,439
Speaker 2: Floating will be fun. Might get sick and stuff like that.

1681
01:16:56,600 --> 01:16:58,600
Speaker 3: Though, well isn't it a plane that goes up? And

1682
01:16:58,640 --> 01:17:00,680
Speaker 3: they're like, I don't know how that's how they do it.

1683
01:17:00,800 --> 01:17:02,679
Speaker 2: You get the gs on you though.

1684
01:17:02,680 --> 01:17:06,519
Speaker 5: Yeah, you're definitely gonna throw up. There will be what

01:19:49,800 --> 01:19:51,360
Speaker 3: wrote letters to his kids while he was gone?

1744
01:19:52,720 --> 01:19:54,960
Speaker 2: Some people do that. I don't take him as a

1745
01:19:55,000 --> 01:19:57,280
