1
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:28,200
Speaker 1: Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen to the latest edition of

2
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:32,479
Speaker 1: No Fouls Given. Of course, I'm your co host Big Wise,

3
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:38,720
Speaker 1: joined as always by Danny Green Paul Pierce. Ready to

4
00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:42,240
Speaker 1: get into another fantastic show man. I love the rundown

5
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:45,640
Speaker 1: that we got before we kick things off. Just wanted

6
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:48,120
Speaker 1: to do a quick recap of some of our picks

7
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 1: from the Wednesday Night games. We made a few predictions

8
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:58,960
Speaker 1: last episode, just to quickly reviewed. Golden State sat Steph, Jimmy,

9
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:05,680
Speaker 1: Draymond uh in Miami on Wednesday Night, Kaminga and Al Horford.

10
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 2: The Heat unsurprisingly won.

11
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 1: Uh. The Raptors beat the Sixers, Danny Pickphilly wasn't. Paul

12
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:20,399
Speaker 1: picked the Raps, And the Rockets beat the Calves. Danny

13
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 1: and myself picked the Rockets. Paul picked the Calves.

14
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:24,480
Speaker 2: Uh.

15
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:26,480
Speaker 1: And you know, I think the biggest takeaway from that

16
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 1: is the Rockets are just they're on the heater, They're

17
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:34,399
Speaker 1: they're just they seem to be gelling really quickly. Uh.

18
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:36,479
Speaker 1: We I kind of think we knew that they would

19
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 1: have a credible defense because that was their calling card

20
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:40,680
Speaker 1: last year.

21
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:41,919
Speaker 3: Sure, but they.

22
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:44,399
Speaker 1: Got the number one and number two offense in the

23
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 1: NBA this season, which is crazy, which I don't think

24
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 1: anybody saw Coving, even with the addition to KD offense,

25
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 1: was their kryptonite life. Like these guys couldn't make a

26
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 1: fucking shot to save their lives and that's why they

27
00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 1: got kicked out of the playoffs. So it's kind of

28
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 1: crazy that it's just like this been able to gel.

29
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 3: That way for sure. Cleveland also to me, again not

30
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,400
Speaker 3: trying to take anything from Houston, but Cleveland just ain't

31
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 3: there right now at all. And I spoke about it earlier,

32
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:16,959
Speaker 3: and it's more of a toughness situation. They always get

33
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 3: out rebounded or bullied by other teams, which shouldn't be

34
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,520
Speaker 3: the case when they have the bigs to keep like

35
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 3: they shouldn't. They should be able to rebound, you know

36
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 3: what I'm saying. So I don't know is like do

37
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:30,520
Speaker 3: they make a move they need to make a move,

38
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:32,360
Speaker 3: they need to bring in some tough toughness, or do

39
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 3: they try to find a way to bring out some

40
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:35,920
Speaker 3: dog and the guys that they have. I know, Evan

41
00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:39,240
Speaker 3: Mobley's still young and on the rise, Jared Allen's been there,

42
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:42,080
Speaker 3: but you know, people kind of can't really unsee some

43
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 3: of the quotes that he said when the playoffs have

44
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:47,639
Speaker 3: happened and they look at him like, yo, he's got

45
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 3: to rebound a little better. Sure, And they also said

46
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 3: they have a lot of smaller max s. Truce is out.

47
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 3: We don't know if he's coming back, when he's coming back.

48
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 3: Deandred Hunter there now, but Darius is supposed to come

49
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 3: back next week.

50
00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:01,959
Speaker 1: Garland and Garland came back and he's sitting again.

51
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,800
Speaker 3: But not again, so not taking anything from the Rockets.

52
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:09,240
Speaker 3: But Cleveland's not there right now, but Houston is definitely balling.

53
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,239
Speaker 3: They're better than I expected to be without a point guard,

54
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 3: and they're gonna have a They have a really good

55
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 3: test coming up. I think they played Denver soon. I

56
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,240
Speaker 3: think that's what when we that's what we when we

57
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 3: see what they really about. But yeah, Sangoon has been

58
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,520
Speaker 3: like like he's been kind of bringing the ball up

59
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 3: for them, like in the point guard matter, so they

60
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 3: haven't had to really worry about He's a playmaker himself.

61
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 3: And then Steven Adams, they just out rebound everybody. Like

62
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 3: Katie just can just shoot take his mid range and

63
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 3: not have to worry about playing a bunch of defense,

64
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 3: having a rebound ball because everybody around him is playing

65
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 3: defense and rebounding. All he has to do is knock

66
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 3: down shots and make plays and do what he does.

67
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 3: So I said, you got to give a lot of

68
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 3: credit to e May and said those guys over there

69
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 3: kind of gelling quick that they found something.

70
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 4: I really like where Houston is doing out there. I

71
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 4: like the way they playing at a faster pace they defend.

72
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 4: Then obviously the addition of k D has really brought

73
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 4: some stability, uh and some respect to Houston because before

74
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 4: I thought they was good. Last year, yeah it was

75
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 4: what there was, the number two team in.

76
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 3: The East, up in the West, up getting that number.

77
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,360
Speaker 4: Two right in the West. But nobody really respected.

78
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 1: Nobody treated them.

79
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,479
Speaker 4: They trust, they trusting up like if they end up

80
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,360
Speaker 4: with the number two scene. For me this year, I'm

81
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 4: looking at them as a real contender threat then I

82
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,840
Speaker 4: did a year ago because of what bringing in k

83
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 4: D and another year under their belts and Goon obviously

84
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 4: has turned itself into a bona fide all star in

85
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 4: this league. We already know uh what KD does. And

86
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 4: then with the role players Jabbari, Junior man Uh and

87
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 4: some of these other guys. Reid is actually giving them

88
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 4: some good key off the bench. I really like what

89
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 4: Houston is doing. They're gonna be scary in the West,

90
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,480
Speaker 4: uh you know, record wise at the top. But they

91
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,159
Speaker 4: got to be a team like now that we're seeing

92
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,479
Speaker 4: them for a couple few weeks now and I know

93
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 4: it's still early, but not having a point guard and

94
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,040
Speaker 4: playing the way they are offense, that's scary.

95
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 3: So the question is how do they match up with Okay, see.

96
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 4: I think they match up. They played okay see the

97
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 4: first game of the season, and it was a game. Yeah,

98
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 4: and I've been seeing okay see. But and Houston ain't

99
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,919
Speaker 4: where they're at right now to where they're gonna be,

100
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:27,720
Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying, They're gonna get better, like

101
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,159
Speaker 4: you know who a team is Like we said it

102
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,160
Speaker 4: earlier after about twenty five games. Yes, and for them

103
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 4: to be playing this well now, this early in jailen

104
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 4: in about twenty twenty more games, we're gonna really see like, oh,

105
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,599
Speaker 4: it's gonna be tightened up, you know what I'm saying,

106
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:43,039
Speaker 4: it's gonna be like hold on, they could be a

107
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,360
Speaker 4: real threat outside of Denver to Okay, see.

108
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,599
Speaker 1: The thing that has been super cool for me to

109
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:54,919
Speaker 1: watch is the way the guys are embracing KD. Because,

110
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 1: let's face it, his last two stops, like at the

111
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,599
Speaker 1: end over there, it was just like a dude that

112
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:05,039
Speaker 1: just like was in a bad move, super aloof like

113
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 1: not involved with his teammates. Yeah, and it seems to

114
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 1: be a genuine love and appreciation and admiration for KD.

115
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 2: That seems to be lifting the spirit to the team up.

116
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,159
Speaker 1: I know that's not something you could quantify with a

117
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,280
Speaker 1: stat but it's just a good energy that they have that.

118
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 2: I'm really that I'm really happy about.

119
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 1: And you know, when it comes to the ceiling and

120
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 1: can they challenge Okay See, I think it's without a

121
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 1: doubt they could challenge OKAYC because I think there's just

122
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 1: a big difference at the end of the shot clock

123
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 1: when you're going to KD and when you're going to

124
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:36,680
Speaker 1: Jalen Green.

125
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, which was the case last year in the playoffs,

126
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 3: you found you a solidified closer. Yeah, I'm with y'all.

127
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,719
Speaker 3: I think I think they could challenge anybody in the West,

128
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 3: But depending on the matchup, I think they'll struggle with

129
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 3: a team that shoots it well from the art.

130
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 1: Sure.

131
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 3: The reason why I think they can match with Oka

132
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 3: See because okay See, they play really good defense. They

133
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 3: shoot it decent, but they they weren't a great three

134
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,720
Speaker 3: point shooting team last year. They also didn't take a

135
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 3: lot of attempt specially in the finals. It was more

136
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 3: Shae mid range. They're shooting some more now, but they're

137
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 3: still not like a super great But the reason why

138
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 3: teams that don't shoot great from three will struggle with

139
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 3: them is because they out rebound everybody.

140
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they have the wings to like throw

141
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 1: at Jubb Shae. They have the wing depth and the

142
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 1: other thing okay See does traditionally struggled with his size,

143
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 1: Like you said on the boards, like Houston is gonna

144
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 1: present a big size problem.

145
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 3: So yeah, so I think they match up well with

146
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 3: okay See, but I think it'll be it gets tricky

147
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 3: when it's Golden State, you know what I'm saying, Like

148
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 3: they have those because they play big lineups that they

149
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 3: have to chase guys on pin downs, and Steph is

150
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 3: hitting threes and is hitting threes, and then you got

151
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 3: Jimmy might hit a couple of Moses.

152
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 1: State is definitely playing a mental game with you in

153
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: terms of you gotta be locked in against Golden State

154
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:00,160
Speaker 1: against steph when.

155
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 3: Like, who else in the West? Is it? We say Lakers?

156
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 3: Like maybe, yeah, I think the Lakers have a he

157
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,320
Speaker 3: has a high collect Lakers shooting threes.

158
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just yeah, I just think Houston is showing

159
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 1: that the fact that they could score efficiently. Maybe they're

160
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 1: not one of the three best offenses in the league

161
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,120
Speaker 1: is very early, but it don't matter. Like if these

162
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 1: guys are top eight on offense and we know what

163
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 1: they're capable of doing the rebound and on the boards,

164
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:29,240

Speaker 3: A couple uh in this episode.

198
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 1: But yeah, the Raptors, I gotta hand up man take

199
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 1: full accountability.

200
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 2: I thought they were gonna be horrible this season.

201
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:30,319
Speaker 1: I just didn't see the fit between Scotty and r

202
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 1: J and Ingram and it just seemed like all these

203
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:37,160
Speaker 1: guys who like to operate in the mid range and congested,

204
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:39,800
Speaker 1: it just didn't seem like it would work. And I'd

205
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:45,200
Speaker 1: be damned. Bro Like, Manual Quickly is playing incredible. Uh

206
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,960
Speaker 1: he's like been that like like coming off of screens

207
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 1: and just like being able to fire, you know, on

208
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,680
Speaker 1: the pull up three has been huge for them. They

209
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 1: play so fast, they played with a cohesion and again,

210
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,319
Speaker 1: and I know I'm gonna say this again, but they

211
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 1: just seemed like a team that's like believing in what

212
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 1: they are.

213
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:03,840
Speaker 3: They're very fond of Yeah.

214
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:07,720
Speaker 2: Shouts to the coach man whatever he's doing.

215
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 3: Dark old, Yeah, shout the Dark.

216
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 1: And I'm happy to be wrong about this because they're

217
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 1: one of the more fun and exciting teams to watch

218
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 1: this season.

219
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 3: Before the season, the odds for them making the play

220
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 3: in the playoffs is very like high, and I was like,

221
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,080
Speaker 3: with the group they have and how wide open the

222
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,560
Speaker 3: easter is, I was like, if you're a smart gambler.

223
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 3: I'm not a gambler, but if you're a smart gambler,

224
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 3: take these odds because the East is and they're looking

225
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:33,440
Speaker 3: really good right now. So yeah, I got to give

226
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 3: a lot of credits. And also they've been one of

227
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:40,040
Speaker 3: the healthier teams. That's they have youth. Could they use

228
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 3: more shooting, for sure, but they figured it out. They're

229
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 3: playing well the Jalonty, the winning games on the road,

230
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:49,080
Speaker 3: and they're tough, they're scrappy, so you've got to show

231
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:49,680
Speaker 3: them some love.

232
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 4: Man assist. They moved the ball, they play together. You

233
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:58,440
Speaker 4: got two young All stars though, like like they are

234
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:02,679
Speaker 4: starting to live up to their again because the the

235
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,959
Speaker 4: Ingram was All Star a few years ago and Scotty

236
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:08,839
Speaker 4: what a couple of years ago and only made one

237
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:11,160
Speaker 4: All Star each I believe. But now they're starting to

238
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 4: say all right, they're a little older, mature and understanding,

239
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 4: like all right, they got their money and they're like,

240
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 4: all right, it's time to start winning. And that's what

241
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 4: I see from them.

242
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 2: I forgot who they were playing the other night.

243
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:23,560
Speaker 4: I'm sorry.

244
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 1: The team escapes me. I think it was Philly where

245
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 1: Scotty and Brandon Ingram had two huge defensive plays at

246
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,440
Speaker 1: the end of the game to win it. Well, I'm like, damn,

247
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:36,440
Speaker 1: b I is like, help.

248
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:44,840
Speaker 3: Side Charlotte was Charlotte was Charlotte, Charlotte.

249
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,120
Speaker 2: This is a different b. I I'm seeing here.

250
00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 3: And there making extra plays at the Remy He's black, motivated,

251
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:57,600
Speaker 3: motiv punched on Homie, punched on Dune Charlotte.

252
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 1: And you know, to watch the t like to watch

253
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 1: the way the team reacted to a defensive play that

254
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,040
Speaker 1: Ingram made. I'm like, man, that bodes well for the

255
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 1: character of the team going forward. So super excited.

256
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:11,040
Speaker 3: I thought they had a weird fit, but I thought

257
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:12,600
Speaker 3: they had a chance to be South. I thought they

258
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,079
Speaker 3: could make the top six with the people that with

259
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:17,119
Speaker 3: the group they have because the East was again.

260
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:19,160
Speaker 2: They're a talented bunch and they're playing hard.

261
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 1: They playing together the.

262
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:22,839
Speaker 4: Land currently right now, Christian in the East the second

263
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:24,440
Speaker 4: second in the East.

264
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 3: That's crazy, like behind they just jumped Cleveland because Cleveland

265
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:28,000
Speaker 3: just lost.

266
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, they's second in the East behind the true.

267
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 1: For them early days again, but I think I think

268
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 1: what they're doing is real. I think they're going to

269
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:36,640
Speaker 1: be one.

270
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 3: Of them they're gonna be in.

271
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 1: The East this season.

272
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, Like it really is like for me to be

273
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:46,000
Speaker 4: looking at the East and be like, damn, Detroit is

274
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 4: the class, Like is it really? I know they know.

275
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:55,400
Speaker 1: The magic finally, like showing their form that we thought

276
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:58,360
Speaker 1: they would have even if Polo was sitting.

277
00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,439
Speaker 4: But like man, I thought, but I thought the East

278
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 4: was a two team race coming into the Cleveland, New York.

279
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:10,880
Speaker 4: That's it for Toronto and Detroit to be top two

280
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:17,400
Speaker 4: right now, I'm shocked. So we'll see. Though it's early,

281
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 4: it's good. It's good though the East is wide open.

282
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:21,520
Speaker 4: This is a this is a this is a time

283
00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:24,840
Speaker 4: right now to where if you like in that fourth

284
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:26,760
Speaker 4: fifth slide, you can make a trade in the.

285
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:28,440
Speaker 2: East, you get a key piece.

286
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 4: You can actually make a run right now if you

287
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 4: can get at the mart Rose. And maybe we're talking about.

288
00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:38,080
Speaker 1: What some of these Eastern guys should do, maybe next episode.

289
00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,480
Speaker 1: But I do think even the Detroit should be looking

290
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 1: to improve the.

291
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,280
Speaker 2: Roster and not be complacent.

292
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think they they need.

293
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:53,640
Speaker 1: I would they need some extra reliable scoring. And what

294
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 1: I've been seeing out there is a lot.

295
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:58,119
Speaker 3: Of outside of Caden Duram. You need somebody like somebody.

296
00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:00,520
Speaker 4: And Laurie marking the that's you.

297
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 1: I think that I think that would be incredible.

298
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,240
Speaker 3: That he's being credible for a lot of people because

299
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 3: he's a big right.

300
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:11,680
Speaker 1: But they but if they wanted to, they could who coming.

301
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 3: Off and get somebody that steady.

302
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 2: They would give up, they would give they would give up.

303
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:19,480
Speaker 1: Give up the young guy.

304
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 4: Who was the younger Thompson.

305
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 1: No, what's his freaking He ain't even played Bias Harris.

306

Speaker 2: He haven't got an extension yet for the man.

307
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 3: So you give Tobias.

308
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: He's the he's the really valuable piece.

309
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 3: Tobias, you're not giving that.

310
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:39,880

00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 4: in the trade.

312
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:42,920

00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:50,760
Speaker 1: not getting the Thompson.

Speaker 3: I'll get you Jada, and he's gotta be during.

317
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:56,440
Speaker 2: Tobias Tobias Harris.

318
00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 3: Market is a guy, is a max guy, and.

319
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 2: You're gonna to get a bunch of future first.

Speaker 4: But then who who's gonna be building bo you gotta

322
00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:10,160
Speaker 4: give up something.

323
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 1: The building block is Jaden n Ivy. He was a

324
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 1: top four pick.

325
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:15,600
Speaker 4: Guy, but he's not even in the rotation right now.

326
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:23,560
Speaker 1: So Danny Ainge is gonna want picks for sure, and

327
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:25,080
Speaker 1: I think want to be fine.

328
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 4: He don't want to sorrow to.

329
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:29,360
Speaker 2: You gonna want a piece to he gonna jade and.

330
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 4: I you're not giving up a sor for Marketing.

331
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 1: Market is sure.

332
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 4: Sure, I'm consistent.

333
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:38,360
Speaker 3: You guys are just You guys are just again. I'm

334
00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 3: looking at somebody that's way more like reasonable, like Lauri

335
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 3: Market was like a reasonable person to go after.

336
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 1: Why he's on the crack a team that's trying to

337
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 1: the number one pick.

338
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 3: You have to change the whole team to get him.

339
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, they don't got to change their whole team.

340
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 1: They got to put some salaries together, which is gonna change,

341
00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 1: and some picks they don't.

342
00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:58,680
Speaker 4: I don't think they do anything right now.

343
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,480
Speaker 3: Not right now. But so you think they need to

344
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 3: stretch for big is what you're saying.

345
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,640
Speaker 2: Yes, they need somebody else who's reliable.

346
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 3: That couldn't be a three or two, could be a

347
00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 3: wing guy.

348
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:14,520
Speaker 1: I just love the idea of marketing and and Jalen

349
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:17,359

Speaker 2: So that's an incredible fund.

351
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:23,439
Speaker 3: Go to Sacramento, pick up Malik Monk or Damar or

352
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:24,960
Speaker 3: Zach that might.

353
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 1: Give money to me. Like, I think you should be

354
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:31,199
Speaker 1: going for it, like you guys just said that.

355
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:35,600
Speaker 2: He's just wide open and to me like your laurels.

356
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:38,639
Speaker 4: But you got to give up something. So yeah, you

357
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:39,400
Speaker 4: ain't giving.

358
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:40,639
Speaker 2: Up a lot of young guys.

359
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,120
Speaker 3: You gotta give up you got young guys.

360
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:46,720
Speaker 4: You gotta be the centerpiece Thompson and kid Thompson.

361
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:48,679
Speaker 1: Might have to be the centerpiece since you're also thirsty

362
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 1: for Thompson.

363
00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 3: I'm saying, you gotta make it like you gotta make

364
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:51,880
Speaker 3: it make sense.

365
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 1: There's nobody not even become like a not promising young player.

366
00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:59,000
Speaker 3: For sure, But there's no way in the world Danny

367
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:00,880
Speaker 3: a is gonna be like, all right, I'm just gonna

368
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 3: take what you want to give me.

369
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:03,240
Speaker 4: You're not gonna fleece down.

370
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:07,200
Speaker 1: There, okay, but like giving you who's giving you three

371
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:08,440
Speaker 1: first round picks?

372
00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:11,359
Speaker 3: Whoever wants Larry market and they're gonna give up pieces.

373
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 3: I don't think so, bros. I believe Larry is a

374
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 3: very sot.

375
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:20,080
Speaker 1: No, he's a great I believe in Laura. That's why

376
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 1: I want him on the Pistons. I'm just saying like,

377
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,879
Speaker 1: I don't think these crazy offers are coming from teams

378
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 1: that are trying to win right now, because it's like,

379
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,679
Speaker 1: am I supposed to just tear down my team? And

380
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:35,920
Speaker 1: then it's like, does Utah want really good players in return?

381
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:38,639
Speaker 1: When now players in return? It doesn't make sense.

382
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 2: They're trying to get the number one pick to load the.

383
00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:43,000
Speaker 1: Draft, you know what I mean.

384
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:46,720
Speaker 3: So you still want to have a group of body

385
00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 3: that you can build around at the time age timeline.

386
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:50,600
Speaker 3: So you want to.

387
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 2: Get solid Vet Tobias Harris.

388
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:55,080
Speaker 3: That's not promising.

389
00:18:56,840 --> 00:19:01,439
Speaker 1: A couple other filler pieces and guys, we're gonna give

390
00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:02,280
Speaker 1: these guys picks.

391
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:09,200
Speaker 4: Hey man, all right, the trade right, but.

392
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 3: Yes, I want you. They might need to make a

393
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:11,960
Speaker 3: move at some point if they want.

394
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:13,919
Speaker 4: To talk to me in January.

395
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:15,720
Speaker 3: But I do think this. I think with the group

396
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 3: they have now, I think they can still win. They

397
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:19,560
Speaker 3: could win the East. They not win a championship, but

398
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:21,400
Speaker 3: they could win the East.

399
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,280
Speaker 1: I think it would be foolhardy to rest on your

400
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 1: lawrels right now with a vulnerable East to.

401
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:28,720
Speaker 3: Just be like, ah, I think I just think they

402
00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 3: needed to experience. They need coaching, honestly, going there with

403
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:32,120
Speaker 3: the only thing that.

404
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:34,880
Speaker 1: In the chamber, you know what I mean.

405
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:37,119
Speaker 3: There's no team in the East that scares me if

406
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:38,639
Speaker 3: from them.

407
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:44,560
Speaker 4: No, there's no team that scares me. The next Cleveland Milwaukee, Nope, nope, nope.

408
00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 1: All right, but you're talking about a team in the

409
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:48,960
Speaker 1: playoffs and it's just literally is gonna be like, Okay,

410
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:50,719
Speaker 1: go out and drop forty for us to win.

411
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 3: Again, that's coaching, Like that's I don't know. They have

412
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 3: pieces of Dylan Dura. You see there's a two minute

413
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:01,639
Speaker 3: clip of Jalen Duran going into his bag. He's been

414
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:05,639
Speaker 3: shown going into his bag this season. Robinson, Jimmy new

415
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:06,640
Speaker 3: Trump and getting buckets.

416
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:08,880
Speaker 4: They need maybe they do. They maybe need.

417
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:13,240
Speaker 5: Somebody Jenkins beginning buckets, Paul Reeves beginning beef, Steve been

418
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:14,200
Speaker 5: coming to work.

419
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 3: Man. The nasty boys they be. They love this team

420
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:20,640
Speaker 3: themselves a nasty boy.

421
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 1: I just I would just want to see them elevated,

422
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:24,400
Speaker 1: that's all. Like I want.

423
00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:26,480
Speaker 3: The only way that they can compete with Okay, see

424
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:30,040
Speaker 3: you saying, is they get like a Lorry Mark. Hell yeah, okay, absolutely,

425
00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:31,439
Speaker 3: I'm with you on that. But I think they can

426
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:33,040
Speaker 3: still win the East with without him, but that they

427
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:33,880
Speaker 3: can't win a championship.

428
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 4: We're talking about Detroit winning the East right now?

429
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 2: Why not watch it?

430
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:39,200
Speaker 3: Sound crazy that fast?

431
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:39,480
Speaker 1: Right?

432
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 3: Two years ago there was on a twenty eight game

433
00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:41,880
Speaker 3: losing stream.

434
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:48,200
Speaker 1: No fan base deserves it more, all right, So let's

435
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,119
Speaker 1: move on over to the Western Conference.

436
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:53,400
Speaker 2: The washed James King.

437
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 3: On Tuesday night.

438
00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:02,520
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, man, Paul was saying about Lebron coming

439
00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:04,320
Speaker 1: back and is he gonna hurt you?

440
00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:15,399
Speaker 3: That was the cent was crazy crazy.

441
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:23,240
Speaker 5: That was eleven points eleven points re reads in the

442
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:24,320
Speaker 5: win against the Jazz.

443
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:27,720
Speaker 1: He said postgame in an interview, is this an actual quote?

444
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 1: He said, I can fit in with anybody. I don't

445
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 1: even understand why that was even a question.

446
00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:38,760
Speaker 2: What's wrong with these people out here? That was quoted?

447
00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:42,440
Speaker 4: Well, this is my thing too, And we talked about

448
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:45,160
Speaker 4: this before the show started. Whins Lebron ever had to

449
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 4: fit in?

450
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,960
Speaker 1: He never happened. He's never had to write except for

451
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 1: Olympic basketball.

452
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 4: You can say that's which is not everybody fits in

453
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:58,440
Speaker 4: the Olympics like listen, we've never seen him fit in.

454
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,440
Speaker 4: So now you like, after all these years, you're like,

455
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:04,159
Speaker 4: how do we know? You know what I'm saying, this

456
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,800
Speaker 4: is the this is a role we still don't know.

457
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 4: This is a role he's never played in his life.

458
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:12,280
Speaker 4: And that's why I said, usually Lebron is a guy

459
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 4: that you gotta adjust your talents around him, whereas this

460
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,199
Speaker 4: the first time in his career where you legitimately got

461
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:21,560
Speaker 4: to say he gotta fall in line with what Luca's

462
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,159
Speaker 4: doing and Reeves is doing. So I'm just questioned it

463
00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:24,800
Speaker 4: if he can do it.

464
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:25,199
Speaker 1: And that's what.

465
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:29,439
Speaker 4: I like that his first game back. I like how

466
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:31,359
Speaker 4: he was fitting in his first game back. But we

467
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:33,960
Speaker 4: all know that, like this saying, Lebron ain't out here

468
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:37,240
Speaker 4: to get eleven points and twelve three rebounds. We know that,

469
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:38,239
Speaker 4: come on here.

470
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:42,320
Speaker 3: I don't know how long he'll keep that up, but.

471
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 4: He's just getting in shape. Watch after like five or

472
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,640
Speaker 4: six games, then we're gonna see. And when they play

473
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 4: some stiffer competition, we'll see, and then I'll see and

474
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 4: I'll make my a better or different assessment.

475
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's still early. I like the game. I like

476
00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:58,800
Speaker 3: he played a really good flour game. He didn't force

477
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,520
Speaker 3: the issue. I think he'll play this role for a

478
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:03,880
Speaker 3: couple of games until he starts feeling, you know, better

479
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:07,280
Speaker 3: about himself and may be different. But again, and I

480
00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:10,879
Speaker 3: said this in different areas, different platforms, even though he's

481
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:15,840
Speaker 3: a superstar, I still think he is able to adapt

482
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:20,879
Speaker 3: an adjust like most superstars, and most stars aren't comellions.

483
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:23,200
Speaker 3: They can't adapt and adjust to being a role player.

484
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 3: Not saying he needs to play a role, but he

485
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,520
Speaker 3: can adapt to being I'll be a quarterback tonight, you

486
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:29,679
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, Like they don't need me to

487
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 3: score as much. I'm still gonna score it. But lucas

488
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:36,520
Speaker 3: the quarterback, he's had a snake. But Bron, he's a

489
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:38,359
Speaker 3: twelve sis. He wasn't looking to score. He was just

490
00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:41,080
Speaker 3: like with the second unit, he's gonna be that quarterback

491
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 3: or just feeding Luca's gonna score forty. So yeah, Luca's

492
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:46,760
Speaker 3: a quarterback, but he's really not. He's doing a lot

493
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:49,040
Speaker 3: of quarterback sneaks. Bro, He's doing Sam New and shit,

494
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:51,240
Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying, He's running the ball. Yeah,

495
00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 3: so Bron could literally just sit back get some assists

496
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 3: here in there and be what the team needs for

497
00:23:56,480 --> 00:24:00,000
Speaker 3: that night, whether it's rebound, run the floor. So he's adaptable.

498
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,879
Speaker 3: So I think he's better than most superstars able to

499
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 3: adapt and it just like a fit in. Yeah, but

500
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:08,560
Speaker 3: we still won't know because it's early, but I like

501
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:11,399
Speaker 3: to think he could if he's okay and accepting this

502
00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:12,320
Speaker 3: type of role.

503
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:14,840
Speaker 1: To me, it's a couple of things, Like the guy's

504
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:18,160
Speaker 1: forty eight years old, okay, So like even if he wanted,

505
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 1: you did call him lash, I'm just saying. I'm just saying, like,

506
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:27,120
Speaker 1: even if he wanted to, he can't average thirty a game, well,

507
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 1: not efficiently.

508
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:29,680
Speaker 3: I don't think he's trying, not at this point, and

509
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 3: it's it.

510
00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:33,040
Speaker 1: So that's my point, Like the realities of nature at

511
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:36,160
Speaker 1: a certain point have to take over whether Lebron wants

512
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:39,920
Speaker 1: to work around with Luca's doing it. Like if even

513
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 1: if you try to dominate possession, it's not gonna work,

514
00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:45,320
Speaker 1: you know what I mean?

515
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:50,640
Speaker 3: Like this reality twenty five twenty five, So this ship,

516
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,000
Speaker 3: what do you expect him to average twenty one?

517
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:56,480
Speaker 1: Maybe I could see him averaging twenty nineteen.

518
00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:58,440
Speaker 4: So what we're getting from Reeves now.

519
00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 3: Nineteen nine or nine I I can see like that exactly.

520
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 3: That's a And if Bron.

521
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 2: Would dedicate himself to again.

522
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:12,400
Speaker 1: Screening hard, rolling hard, finding the open man, knocking down

523
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:16,720
Speaker 1: open jump shots, attacking the right mismatches, like, that's still

524
00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:17,920
Speaker 1: twenty points a game.

525
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 3: Bro, He have twenty four last year, you know what

526
00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 3: I mean?

527
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:23,720
Speaker 4: They gets you twenty eight eight.

528
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 3: Twenty four, eight and eight. So if he can do

529
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:27,159
Speaker 3: nineteen nine and nine, I'm cool with that.

530
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:28,160
Speaker 2: That's amazing.

531
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:32,120
Speaker 1: And I think what the Utah game, what I took

532
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 1: out of it. I like that Lebron, Luca Austin were

533
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:39,000
Speaker 1: all invested in getting eight and involved.

534
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:39,560
Speaker 3: Yeah.

535
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:43,199
Speaker 1: So like the more you make other people a threat,

536
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:47,080
Speaker 1: the more the offense just becomes unguardable, you know what

537
00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:47,440
Speaker 1: I mean.

538
00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 2: So, like, he's not dumb, and I think j Is has.

539
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 1: Enough respect in there in that locker room where it's

540
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 1: just like, yo, we have to do the things that

541
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:01,920
Speaker 1: make the most sense.

542
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure. But again I also don't think he's

543
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:06,760
Speaker 3: going to push back. If Bron said, Yo, this is

544
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:09,640
Speaker 3: what I want to do, he'll push a little bit. Ultimately,

545
00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:10,880
Speaker 3: most coaches, it's gonna let.

546
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,159
Speaker 2: Him Bron try to get with some different program is

547
00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:13,680
Speaker 2: gonna fail.

548
00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:18,639
Speaker 3: Possibly he's old, God like, he's older. I do agree,

549
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:21,880
Speaker 3: but I will say it is important for him right now,

550
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:24,760
Speaker 3: which I think he will to encourage the Powers teammates

551
00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,880
Speaker 3: because he knows he's gonna need them in the playoffs. Now,

552
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,159
Speaker 3: will you expect him to score in the playoffs. Probably not.

553
00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:32,639
Speaker 3: He's gonna take more of an aggressive role, but by

554
00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:34,959
Speaker 3: that time they will have way more confidence when he

555
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:37,879
Speaker 3: does find them, like Jake Larravy and Marcus Smart, that's

556
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:39,639
Speaker 3: the guy that needs to get going. But DeAndre And

557
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,320
Speaker 3: keep him locked in. DeAndre and Mark Smart two X

558
00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:45,480
Speaker 3: actors you need. Yes, Rui's been balling well, he's efficient,

559
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:48,040
Speaker 3: but you just can't lose DeAndre And with his moves

560
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:49,639
Speaker 3: and Marcus Smart if he gets a three ball going,

561
00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:52,720
Speaker 3: because right now he's playing good scrappy defense, blue collar

562
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:56,080
Speaker 3: work in the floor game, but teams are guarding him

563
00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,520
Speaker 3: like Van do you know, which is crazy? You can't

564
00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:01,720
Speaker 3: allow it. He is, but he's just he's been struggling

565
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,919
Speaker 3: for the last trinky guy too. Yeah, he's a you know,

566
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:08,920
Speaker 3: icy you know yeah, So if he gets that three

567
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:10,639
Speaker 3: ball going, they're gonna be dangerous at that point. I

568
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:12,920
Speaker 3: think da Vince's finally back, so he's a good threat

569
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:13,440
Speaker 3: to for them.

570
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:16,480
Speaker 1: I think if you're a Laker fan, you're rooting for

571
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:19,200
Speaker 1: more people to say Lebron is gonna ruin the chemistry

572
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,760
Speaker 1: of the team because it's gonna Jedi mind tricky to him.

573
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:27,680
Speaker 3: To not do the more people they.

574
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,400
Speaker 4: Play like this, and I like it if not, if

575
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,840
Speaker 4: he gotta go back into the ball dominant.

576
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:35,200
Speaker 1: And yeah, we'll be monitoring it for sure up here

577
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:37,760
Speaker 1: and in other Laker news man like even with the

578
00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 1: selling of the team, this fucking drama in Lakerland.

579
00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:43,160
Speaker 3: Talk about it.

580
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:49,960
Speaker 1: So the Lakers fired minority owners Joey and Jesse Buss.

581
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:51,879
Speaker 2: From the front off his rolls.

582
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:57,280
Speaker 1: Is part of a recent restructuring after Mark Walters acquisition

583
00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,520
Speaker 1: of the team. Genie still remains on his governor. This

584
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:05,280
Speaker 1: is reported by my guy Sham Sharania of ESPN. Could

585
00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:09,400
Speaker 1: you bring up the he got a quote actually because

586
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:11,119
Speaker 1: he reached out to the brothers.

587
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 2: For comment, they gave they gave a quote.

588
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:15,200
Speaker 1: I want to get.

589
00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 3: Exactly do you know why this happened? Do you have

590
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:18,119
Speaker 3: any idea?

591
00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:21,000
Speaker 2: I have, I have some I have.

592
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:25,000
Speaker 3: What have you connected? What dots have you connected to

593
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:25,479
Speaker 3: figure out why.

594
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:32,840
Speaker 1: I think there's definitely you cannot discount the Rob Polinka element.

595
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 1: Like bro Urine Whitesman bro his new Laker book, every

596
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:42,400
Speaker 1: single person who's ever dealt with Rob Polinka is like,

597
00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:45,800
Speaker 1: I never think he's telling me the truth. When Magic

598
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:48,640
Speaker 1: quit on the spot, he basically called that dude a snake.

599
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 1: You never you never discount the Rob Polinka If you

600
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:55,720
Speaker 1: watch Game of Thrones little.

601
00:28:55,440 --> 00:29:01,640
Speaker 2: Finger at the whole day, Wow, don't discount that.

602
00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:05,080
Speaker 1: And then Genie, like you know, if you remember these

603
00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:07,160
Speaker 1: were two of the brothers that voted against the sale,

604
00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:13,440
Speaker 1: which and again like I get it there related, but

605
00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:15,080
Speaker 1: like she got.

606
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:16,520
Speaker 2: Gym Buss the fuck up out.

607
00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:20,200
Speaker 1: It kicked them out in twenty eighteen or twenty seventeen

608
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:23,800
Speaker 1: or whatever it was like power moved him, elbowed him

609
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 1: out orchestrated that. And so I think that's a Genie

610
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:29,840
Speaker 1: and Rob alliance there. And I just want to read

611
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:33,040
Speaker 1: the quote from the from the two bus kids that

612
00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:37,080
Speaker 1: got fired just now quote. We are extremely honored to

613
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:40,479
Speaker 1: have been part of this organization for the last twenty years.

614
00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:43,680
Speaker 1: Thank you to the Laker Nation for embracing our family

615
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 1: every step of the way. We wish things could be

616
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 1: different with the way our time ended with the team.

617
00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 1: At times like this, we wish we could ask our

618
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,760
Speaker 1: dad what he would think about it all.

619
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:57,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, there was also another quote. It was another one about.

620
00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:02,600
Speaker 1: There was a spicy quote where basically they said, Jeanie

621
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 1: orchestrated their firing and she gets to stay on, and.

622
00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:10,240
Speaker 2: Jesus she doesn't.

623
00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:14,520
Speaker 1: She doesn't screw around another thing like, and this has

624
00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:15,560
Speaker 1: been reported too.

625
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 2: It's like these two brothers.

626
00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:21,760
Speaker 1: Are actually seen as the competent Bus children, meaning they

627
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 1: were the ones that unearthed Austin Reeves, they found Caruso,

628
00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:29,080
Speaker 1: they found kous Malay in the draft. Like, these are

629
00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:32,360
Speaker 1: guys that are like actually good at their jobs. That's

630
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:35,760
Speaker 1: there been their reputation in terms of the scouting.

631
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 3: Department's quote right there?

632
00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:38,080
Speaker 1: Where is it?

633
00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:41,120
Speaker 3: Doctor Bus? This was this was doctor Bus's idea.

634
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:44,840
Speaker 1: Doctor Buss's idea was for Joey and me to run

635
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:50,760
Speaker 1: basketball ops one day. But Jeannie has effectively kept herself

636
00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:56,480
Speaker 1: in place while with her siblings being fired. So these

637
00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:59,040
Speaker 1: are brother and sisters warring in the press.

638
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, Pee, what you what you think? Pete? Why do

639
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 3: you think this has happened?

640
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:09,040
Speaker 4: Why do I think this is happening. No, I don't know.

641
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 3: I don't obviously, I'm thinking it's more I hear what

642
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:14,240
Speaker 3: you're saying, but I think it's more to the them

643
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:16,600
Speaker 3: trying to protect themselves with you know, what's going on

644
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:20,560
Speaker 3: with the gambling situation, and they're doing investigations and have

645
00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 3: organizations turn over phones and emails, and sure you're.

646
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:25,480
Speaker 1: Saying these guys were involved in gambling.

647
00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:29,600
Speaker 3: I don't know. That's that's that's the whole Damon Jones thing.

648
00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:32,120
Speaker 3: Like a lot of organizations have been asked to hand

649
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:37,000
Speaker 3: over documents, phones, emails. Whoa And now I don't think

650
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,840
Speaker 3: this will be the first or last team.

651
00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 1: You think this gambling related.

652
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:43,360
Speaker 3: It's a strong possibility.

653
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:51,440
Speaker 1: I just think this is just Laker bus family dramas.

654
00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 2: Like they have been the most.

655
00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:54,640
Speaker 3: Like you know something.

656
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:58,960
Speaker 2: He's doing, he's playing the coin I'm trying to play.

657
00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:01,640
Speaker 3: There a couple of you know, little articles here and

658
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:03,160
Speaker 3: there that you know some things.

659
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 1: But you played on a few teams in the league.

660
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:11,320
Speaker 1: The dynamic is different in l A. Than San Antonio,

661
00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:18,640
Speaker 1: then Philadelphia, then Toronto where you have these kids, well

662
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:22,440
Speaker 1: they've grown ups, but they inherited the team from their dad.

663
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:24,920
Speaker 3: This is what came out eight hours ago, so you

664
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:28,719
Speaker 3: you can that to me, was what league alerts.

665
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:30,800
Speaker 1: The NBA has asked the Los Angeles Lakes to hand

666
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 1: over documents and other property as yeah, I mean.

667
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,560
Speaker 2: Okay, as a result of the charges damon Jones.

668
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 1: They're seeking documents, phone records from at least ten Laker employees.

669
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:51,360
Speaker 1: Uh andry Men's that's Lebron's.

670
00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:54,240
Speaker 3: Men was just it was a couple of people like

671
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:58,880
Speaker 3: you fired a lot of people. So that's that was

672
00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:00,200
Speaker 3: what you know, I'm thinking.

673
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:03,960
Speaker 2: So you're saying this is like covering this possibility.

674
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 3: It couldn't It could be, It could be something that

675
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:10,720
Speaker 3: I don't know. I'm just saying there's many angles to

676
00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:13,400
Speaker 3: look at. One of them is Genie's tired of her

677
00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:16,920
Speaker 3: brother ship they need to go and other angles. We

678
00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:19,000
Speaker 3: need to protect ourselves and get ahead of something before

679
00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 3: something else comes out bad. And we don't look like

680
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:22,040
Speaker 3: the Clippers right now.

681
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:23,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean.

682
00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:26,160
Speaker 3: The bus.

683
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:32,280
Speaker 1: But Genie made sure to extend Polinka before these got

684
00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:35,640
Speaker 1: before they sold the team, so like new management, they're

685
00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 1: they're kind of handcuffed to Polinka.

686
00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:39,720
Speaker 2: As the head guy.

687
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:41,320
Speaker 3: You're not a rob fan U.

688
00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:45,360
Speaker 1: No, Rob Polinka stinks as a GM. He's not good.

689
00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:51,520
Speaker 2: He got Luca, He got Luca, gifted Luca who says

690
00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:52,720
Speaker 2: no to the Luca trade.

691
00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:56,240
Speaker 3: You gotta make that happen.

692
00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:58,200
Speaker 1: Gift. He made that happen.

693
00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:00,200
Speaker 4: Are you called him?

694
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:03,600
Speaker 2: He got called.

695
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:05,440
Speaker 1: One of the three in the NBA.

696
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:08,800
Speaker 3: To figure out way to make it happen.

697
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:09,839
Speaker 4: Nobody knew Luca was.

698
00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:15,000
Speaker 1: Getting shocked him on when when they shipped out Carusoe

699
00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:19,680
Speaker 1: so they could pay Horton Tucker And that was that

700
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:24,040
Speaker 1: made sense? He was getting up, getting rusting there, did

701
00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:24,879
Speaker 1: that make any sense?

702
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:26,640
Speaker 3: These are all Rocklinca moves.

703
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:31,200
Speaker 2: He's not good at what he does. He's not, he's

704
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:34,160
Speaker 2: really now. But he is good at the politics.

705
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,399
Speaker 1: He was smart enough to suck up the Kobe enough

706
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:40,120
Speaker 1: to be like, yo, I'm now the freaking GM of

707
00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:42,480
Speaker 1: the Lakers with no qualifications. What right?

708
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:44,000
Speaker 3: Okay?

709
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:48,799
Speaker 1: Now he's made himself whatever for whatever reason, Jennie.

710
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:51,839
Speaker 3: Buss valuable, valuable to the group, you know what I mean.

711
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:53,719
Speaker 2: So he's good at politics.

712
00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:57,799
Speaker 1: You know, by the way, he was part of the

713
00:34:57,840 --> 00:34:59,160
Speaker 1: boozer Shenanigans.

714
00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:03,280
Speaker 3: So he don't get no for nothing for the Lakers' success. No, absolutely,

715
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:05,880
Speaker 3: the bubble championship getting ad there.

716
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:13,359
Speaker 1: Get that was more like that was rich orchestrated that.

717
00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:15,319
Speaker 3: I mean he had a good sense to sign you

718
00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:23,520
Speaker 3: of course saying man, yeah, says to bring me in.

719
00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:26,520
Speaker 3: They drafted you know, Zoe COO's Julius Randall. They have

720
00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:28,800
Speaker 3: some good drafted is brandon ingram like they've had.

721
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:32,120
Speaker 4: They all got better than they didn't develop them, Bro.

722
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:34,960
Speaker 3: They didn't have the opportunity traded them for a d Yeah.

723
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:39,680
Speaker 1: I just think until the Lakers are kind of done

724
00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:45,880
Speaker 1: with the bus situation, the kind of like circus atmosphere internally.

725
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:47,160
Speaker 3: So it's not Robins Buss.

726
00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:49,160
Speaker 2: He's connected.

727
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:49,799
Speaker 4: Yeah.

728
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,480
Speaker 3: There the Jennie m rob is what you're saying.

729
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:57,359
Speaker 1: Bro, Linda Rambis having input in basketball hots.

730
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:02,160
Speaker 2: That she couldn't happen any other NBA team.

731
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:10,879
Speaker 3: I think KS got some good intel from That's a

732
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:11,480
Speaker 3: stomach laugh.

733
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:17,160
Speaker 2: You can't be serious. This dynamic would not happen in

734
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:18,400
Speaker 2: any other NBA.

735
00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:21,719
Speaker 3: I hate you, but I can't not, just like I

736
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:24,000
Speaker 3: was a part of the group. So they've done some things.

737
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:26,120
Speaker 4: There's a lot of politics over here.

738
00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:31,680
Speaker 1: No, No, that Laker team that they put together in

739
00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:37,759
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, nineteen to twenty one. Incredible talent in

740
00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:41,640
Speaker 1: terms of the group, which again you know, we know

741
00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:45,080
Speaker 1: the Kawhi Leonard thing happened where they pivoted and it

742
00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:48,719
Speaker 1: ended up working out beautifully, you know, championship and all

743
00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:49,240
Speaker 1: of that stuff.

744
00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:51,319
Speaker 2: But like, do I think Roblink is one of the

745
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 2: dopest gms.

746
00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:53,920
Speaker 3: I didn't say that. I just had to get credit

747
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:56,520
Speaker 3: for some things that has gone right now now, I

748
00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 3: give them no.

749
00:36:57,080 --> 00:37:01,080
Speaker 4: Credit to get the credit for Lebron getting rich.

750
00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:05,480
Speaker 1: That seems like something Lebron and his team orchestrated.

751
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:07,440
Speaker 2: Like, it's not like the end.

752
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:10,040
Speaker 1: Also, you know, remember magic was installed to It's not

753
00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 1: like they had It's not like the Lakers put together

754
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:16,960
Speaker 1: this grand plan to bring Lebron James in Lebron called

755
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:19,239
Speaker 1: him was like Bron coming to figure it.

756
00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:22,640
Speaker 2: Out, right, you know what I mean?

757
00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:28,040
Speaker 1: And I think the I think especially the Bus family

758
00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:32,080
Speaker 1: and Doctor Buses, there's a lion's share the credit deserves

759
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:36,120
Speaker 1: credit for building the Lakers into the biggest brand in

760
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 1: the NBA. Do I think the kids are as talented

761
00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:42,800
Speaker 1: the owner as Doctor Buss.

762
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:47,799
Speaker 3: No, I know what Respect's done. Some good stuff she's

763
00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:49,839
Speaker 3: done some good stuff. She's been for a long time.

764
00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:54,319
Speaker 2: She's definitely the biggest track record for.

765
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:56,160
Speaker 4: Sure.

766
00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:58,240
Speaker 2: And then you know it's just it's just a lot.

767
00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:04,759
Speaker 1: We got to keep it political with the Spectrum guy.

768
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:08,880
Speaker 1: Let's move on to our favorite part of every single episode,

769
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:12,239
Speaker 1: the Picks of the Night, presented by Prize Picks. I

770
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:15,759
Speaker 1: think we got a nice little slate here, Nuggets Rockets.

771
00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:17,960
Speaker 2: This has the potential to be one of the games

772
00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:18,640
Speaker 2: of the season.

773
00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:22,800
Speaker 1: I think as both teams come in relatively healthy.

774
00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:25,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, so this should be a dope game. Should be

775
00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:27,399
Speaker 3: back for that game, right, I think he've rested one game.

776
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:28,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he should be back.

777
00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:31,880
Speaker 3: So let's Christian Brown is out. That's a tough Christian

778
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:33,040
Speaker 3: Brown is out. Somebody else.

779
00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:37,040
Speaker 2: I feel like Cam john Cam Cam Johnson is back.

780
00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:38,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, he came back.

781
00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 2: He played in the last game.

782
00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:43,000
Speaker 3: But yeah, relatively most both these teams relatively.

783
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:46,239
Speaker 2: Healthy, So KD more or less than twenty six and

784
00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:46,600
Speaker 2: a half.

785
00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:51,920
Speaker 3: I like the matchup. I think Aaron Gordon's going to

786
00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:54,040
Speaker 3: guard him, and I think they have got it like

787
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:58,040
Speaker 3: a couple of bodies that they can throw at him.

788
00:38:58,520 --> 00:38:59,200
Speaker 3: Your boy off the.

789
00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:02,560
Speaker 1: Bench is a Titan watching.

790
00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 3: He's coming thirty game. Yeah, he's I would like it

791
00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:09,920
Speaker 3: more of it had Christian Brown, because he's another body.

792
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:13,120
Speaker 3: But I think I'm gonna say less. I'm gonna say less.

793
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:15,480
Speaker 4: I'm gonna give it more because I think this is like,

794
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:17,920
Speaker 4: you know, you have certain games in the season to

795
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:19,920
Speaker 4: where you're like, all right, this is a match up

796
00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:22,439
Speaker 4: we probably don't like. It's a spotlight. This is gonna

797
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:23,680
Speaker 4: be a playoff type game.

798
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:24,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think so.

799
00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:28,120
Speaker 4: You know the way teams are looking at this early. Katie,

800
00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:30,200
Speaker 4: he gets up for these type of games. I got,

801
00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:32,120
Speaker 4: I got more with kt I just.

802
00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:34,239
Speaker 1: Go less because I just think because they're gonna take

803
00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,680
Speaker 1: the game so serious, it's gonna be a low possession game.

804
00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:39,440
Speaker 4: Walking down too high scoring.

805
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,399
Speaker 1: They score, but again, they're gonna score.

806
00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:44,279
Speaker 3: I'm saying less, but I think Katie, he's gonna do

807
00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:46,040
Speaker 3: what he does. I think it's like twenty four.

808
00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:47,280
Speaker 4: It's not gonna be the deepense.

809
00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:50,040
Speaker 3: I think those other guys will be a decent amount of.

810
00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:51,960
Speaker 4: I don't think they'll be defense playing this game. I

811
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:53,680
Speaker 4: think this is gonna be an old fashion shoot. This

812
00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:57,040
Speaker 4: is this is gonna be This is gonna be a

813
00:39:57,160 --> 00:39:57,799
Speaker 4: lesson for me.

814
00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:01,839
Speaker 2: Your kids more or less than twenty and a half more.

815
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:06,320
Speaker 3: I think he's taking that same matchups like personal.

816
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:08,879
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm gonna go less because I could just see

817
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:13,920
Speaker 4: him really teetering around the twenty five and just out.

818
00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 3: You say we did. I think that is gonna take

819
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:20,759
Speaker 3: the same better.

820
00:40:22,640 --> 00:40:26,360
Speaker 4: He's gonna help take the scoring away from him.

821
00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:29,799
Speaker 3: You think so, but they so in the past. Again,

822
00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:31,920
Speaker 3: we talked about him when he scored fifty, they've been

823
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:34,960
Speaker 3: they were ower and four. Like Tyler's approach was correct,

824
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:37,960
Speaker 3: he just didn't have the supporting cast to do it.

825
00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:41,359
Speaker 3: He didn't have enough scoring to do it. So by

826
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:44,200
Speaker 3: himself can't It's proven that he can't beat you alone.

827
00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:47,279
Speaker 3: I just if you limit his pass line.

828
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:51,120
Speaker 1: I think. I think the Rockets help, just how bad

829
00:40:51,120 --> 00:40:51,400
Speaker 1: they are.

830
00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:52,759
Speaker 3: But if it's a better team, I.

831
00:40:52,719 --> 00:40:56,080
Speaker 1: Don't think Shanon on an Island against Nicolee You.

832
00:40:56,120 --> 00:40:58,279
Speaker 3: Steven Adams, you do single, you mixed. They have enough

833
00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:00,160
Speaker 3: bodies to throw at him, but you just you don't

834
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:03,000
Speaker 3: him score and pass. He's gonna get scoring regardless. You

835
00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:06,359
Speaker 3: just can't allow him to find Aaron Gordon, to find.

836
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:09,080
Speaker 1: Aaron Gordon and Peyton Wayne. I gotta figure it out.

837
00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:11,200
Speaker 1: I'm not doing this jokic game.

838
00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:13,839
Speaker 3: So you think less than twenty eight and a half

839
00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:14,440
Speaker 3: for less.

840
00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:15,759
Speaker 1: Than twenty eight, Yeah, I'm going more.

841
00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:20,920
Speaker 2: Okay, our Prince Shane Goon twenty two and a half.

842
00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:21,520
Speaker 3: I'm going more.

843
00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:22,560
Speaker 1: I would go more here.

844
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:24,160
Speaker 3: I think this is the matchup, like I think this

845
00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:24,839
Speaker 3: is the same.

846
00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:27,680
Speaker 2: I think se Gouone is definitely going.

847
00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:29,919
Speaker 4: Take you a lock for twenty four every night. Yeah,

848
00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:33,240
Speaker 4: twenty four, twenty five, he's getting twenty.

849
00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:35,160
Speaker 3: Special agains jokers. I think he's gonna take this match up.

850
00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:37,319
Speaker 1: Like you said, yeah, more serious, more for me, fis

851
00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:40,360
Speaker 1: Shing Goon more for me. Jamal Murray twenty one and

852
00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:40,720
Speaker 1: a half.

853
00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:45,279
Speaker 5: He's been playing well, Yeah, he shooting games. I'm gonna

854
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:46,120
Speaker 5: go last, but.

855
00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:48,160
Speaker 3: I will I will go less because I think what

856
00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:49,520
Speaker 3: I'm and Thompson.

857
00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:52,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, these are guys that he struggled with in the past.

858
00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:57,680
Speaker 1: They got all pressure athleticize, the Minnesota type of guys

859
00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:01,880
Speaker 1: like and they play fishing Daniels and those thighs chasing

860
00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:02,440
Speaker 1: him around.

861
00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:04,759
Speaker 2: That's what he struggled with the past, and that's the

862
00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:05,680
Speaker 2: Houston Rockets.

863
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:06,200
Speaker 1: I could see the.

864
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:08,279
Speaker 3: Less he hasn't pay he can play what I'm gonna

865
00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:11,359
Speaker 3: go less. I'm actually going more. You gon to twenty

866
00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:11,680
Speaker 3: one and a half?

867
00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:14,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm actually going I think he's gonna be Huntings.

868
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:19,200
Speaker 3: Let's do wo Okay. Aaron Gordon sixteen and Al Thompson.

869
00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:22,440
Speaker 3: I don't know, but Aaron Gordon, I'm going more. He

870
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:25,360
Speaker 3: has been balling bro especially the bright Light games, the

871
00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:25,960
Speaker 3: big games.

872
00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:31,360
Speaker 1: He's taking three. His jump shot is pure. Man, it's crazy.

873
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:32,719
Speaker 4: I think he's shooters.

874
00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:34,840
Speaker 1: It's crazy. I know Magic fans got to be watching

875
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:37,360
Speaker 1: this guy, Like, where the hell was this in Orlando?

876
00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:40,320
Speaker 3: So everybody is more, You're going.

877
00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:42,759

Speaker 1: I'll go more, I'll go less, I'll go more.

879
00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:44,960
Speaker 3: Okay.

880
00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:48,239
Speaker 1: Those are our picks of the night, presented by Prize Picks.

881
00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:51,440
Speaker 2: Uh Back out East.

882
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:56,080
Speaker 1: The New York Knickerbockers finally won a road game against Dallas.

883
00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:58,879
Speaker 2: Landy Shammitt is having the season of his life.

884
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:01,040
Speaker 3: He had a good game and a good come with

885
00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:03,160
Speaker 3: the bench last game. The fourth quarter, Yeah, he only

886
00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:04,800
Speaker 3: had like eleven Like nine eleven is all in the

887
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:05,279
Speaker 3: fourth quarter.

888
00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:08,360
Speaker 2: I'm just saying, like, when is this prominent?

889
00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:09,960
Speaker 3: He had a good season when he when he was younger,

890
00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:13,000
Speaker 3: like his younger years might have been with the Clippers,

891
00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:15,480
Speaker 3: might have been with he had he was Somebody really

892
00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:16,640
Speaker 3: loved him Philly.

893
00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:20,200
Speaker 1: They both Philly and the Clippers. Somebody was like the

894
00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:20,760
Speaker 1: next regime.

895
00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:24,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, well he shot shot it well when he was young,

896
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:27,200
Speaker 3: he had some good numbers.

897
00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:28,839
Speaker 1: Made the game winning defensive play.

898
00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:29,880
Speaker 3: Maybe Phoenix off came.

899
00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:31,960
Speaker 2: He drew a hook at the end of the game.

900
00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:36,080
Speaker 3: Shout out to lend there. He stayed bro with the young.

901
00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:40,480
Speaker 3: The the others in the last night's game were very key,

902
00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:44,879
Speaker 3: especially even for Houston, like Aaron Holliday, big shots, big

903
00:43:44,880 --> 00:43:47,680
Speaker 3: plays down the stretch. Landry Shamman came in ready in

904
00:43:47,680 --> 00:43:49,360
Speaker 3: the fourth quarter, like he didn't play a toennements, a

905
00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:52,000
Speaker 3: bunch of shots, but two big threes I think ended

906
00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:53,920
Speaker 3: up having like nine in the fourth quarter and then

907
00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:58,160
Speaker 3: playing said getting the hook, but that wasn't but he

908
00:43:58,200 --> 00:43:58,640
Speaker 3: was ready.

909
00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:02,480
Speaker 2: He was ready, so making the game time.

910
00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:04,920
Speaker 4: How many I mean, you don't even like hook is

911
00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:08,160
Speaker 4: not even a call. No more times they call hooking.

912
00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:10,279
Speaker 3: It's rare because the people who do it, they're not

913
00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:13,399
Speaker 3: calling fouls off the thousands. Crazy enough, I saw Luca

914
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:15,960
Speaker 3: get one the other night against Utah.

915
00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:21,759
Speaker 1: I was watching that. I was like, I mean, it's

916
00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:24,120
Speaker 1: a bit huge that they finally got a road win

917
00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:27,520
Speaker 1: the lowly MAVs. They barely was able to do it.

918
00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:31,360
Speaker 1: But they are missing Oganaobu out for a little while.

919
00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:33,160
Speaker 3: Has been out a couple games before that, so they

920
00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:37,160
Speaker 3: getting back. The question is do you see them being

921
00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:39,880
Speaker 3: a road becoming a problem the issues their struggles?

922
00:44:40,600 --> 00:44:42,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, that is an issue if you can't win on

923
00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:45,399
Speaker 4: the road and if you're not gonna be a number

924
00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:50,880
Speaker 4: one or two, see that second round problem. You know

925
00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:51,319
Speaker 4: what I'm saying.

926
00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:56,920
Speaker 3: With your level concern or I'm not, I'm not that concerned.

927
00:44:56,920 --> 00:44:59,560
Speaker 2: I means like they just got a It's a long season.

928
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:03,719
Speaker 1: They have finishing the top three in the East, which

929
00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:06,240
Speaker 1: shouldn't be impossible, you know what I mean.

930
00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:08,560
Speaker 3: They're supposed to be top two. It shouldn't be possible.

931
00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:12,600
Speaker 1: Again, I think these guys are very They're trying to

932
00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:14,200
Speaker 1: develop their offense.

933
00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:16,160
Speaker 4: Which is a brand offense.

934
00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:19,920
Speaker 1: Yes, and it's clear to me that they're not going

935
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:23,080
Speaker 1: balls to the wall on defense, which is what they

936
00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:25,359
Speaker 1: did last regular season and then in the playoffs they

937
00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:28,759
Speaker 1: turned it up like they did I'm concerned. So I'm

938
00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:29,839
Speaker 1: not crazy.

939
00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:31,680
Speaker 4: Because the defense is the reason went on the road.

940
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:34,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and that's what getting stops.

941
00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:37,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not super concerned because they have injuries. They've

942
00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:40,880
Speaker 3: had injuries. I give them grace, but this is a

943
00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:41,880
Speaker 3: concerning issue.

944
00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:44,560
Speaker 2: And I think you've been a non believer since the season.

945
00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:47,160
Speaker 3: I think I thought they were top before the season started.

946
00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:48,600
Speaker 3: I thought they were going to be top two. Like,

947
00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:50,279
Speaker 3: I thought that there's no reason why they shouldn't be

948
00:45:50,280 --> 00:45:54,239
Speaker 3: in the finals this year after watching them because Cleveland. Again,

949
00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:55,960
Speaker 3: I think Cleveland's good too, but I didn't think Cleveland

950
00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:56,200
Speaker 3: would be.

951
00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:58,280
Speaker 4: They can't withstand no injuries now.

952
00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:00,839
Speaker 3: Yeah so right now, Yeah, I.

953
00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:04,480
Speaker 4: Mean I thought they could because they got the like.

954
00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:11,560
Speaker 1: If you and that's like, that's true big injuries. Yes, yeah,

955
00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:13,600
Speaker 1: those are to forty million dollar players.

956
00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:15,840
Speaker 3: So again I give them, I give them grace with

957
00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:21,120
Speaker 3: the injuries, but there's other parts that concerned me about

958
00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:24,720
Speaker 3: their You just haven't been consistent too. But you can't

959
00:46:25,239 --> 00:46:27,320
Speaker 3: down the stretch. You can't play Cat and Jalen on

960
00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:29,440
Speaker 3: defensive like they have to do the offense defense and

961
00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:31,800
Speaker 3: sub them out every time, and you gotta play.

962
00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:34,160
Speaker 2: Mitchell Robinson to offense defense.

963
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:39,640
Speaker 3: They did it. They kept subbing cat out from Jalen Brunson,

964
00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:41,600
Speaker 3: and that's why Mitch Robinson kept ending on free throw line.

965
00:46:41,640 --> 00:46:43,279
Speaker 3: He missed it. He was trying to get the ball

966
00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:44,440
Speaker 3: when he got through, but he tried to tip it

967
00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:46,240
Speaker 3: to somebody so they couldn't foul. They kept he couldn't

968
00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:49,400
Speaker 3: get the ball out of his hands. So if you

969
00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:51,480
Speaker 3: have to do that in the playoffs or down the

970
00:46:51,520 --> 00:46:56,040
Speaker 3: stretch and like in the postseason, that's a concern. Yeah,

971
00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:59,920
Speaker 3: I think I will help when you get it will

972
00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:01,600
Speaker 3: a lot.

973
00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:05,160
Speaker 4: See them healthy, Yeah, they gotta see them healthy for us.

974
00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:07,200
Speaker 3: Really not a major concern. But it's at like a

975
00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:09,040
Speaker 3: six and a half seven, I'm gonna.

976
00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:10,239
Speaker 1: Say I'm at a four.

977
00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:10,600
Speaker 4: I'm not.

978
00:47:10,680 --> 00:47:11,640
Speaker 1: I'm not worried about.

979
00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:14,160
Speaker 3: The Nicks at the defense, right they.

980
00:47:13,880 --> 00:47:17,560
Speaker 2: Just their overall talent is just so good to me.

981
00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:19,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I got the best starting five in

982
00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:19,920
Speaker 4: the East.

983
00:47:20,840 --> 00:47:22,680
Speaker 1: Definitely, definitely.

984
00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:25,480
Speaker 2: I mean it's definitely.

985
00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:27,719
Speaker 4: The I gotta see what it looks like when they're

986
00:47:27,719 --> 00:47:31,440
Speaker 4: healthy again for a chunk of the season.

987
00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:35,200
Speaker 1: Here we go, so we're about to stand on business

988
00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:36,480
Speaker 1: and we wanted to get.

989
00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:38,080
Speaker 2: You guys to get a little spicy here.

990
00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:43,960
Speaker 1: And let's just say this was your squad and you

991
00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:49,760
Speaker 1: had to put a starting five together around this squad.

992
00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:56,000
Speaker 1: Who are you benching? What was that? Yeah?

993
00:47:56,120 --> 00:48:00,000
Speaker 2: So you got Kevin Durant, Luka, doncic.

994
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:07,560
Speaker 1: Uh, Victim Women, Yama Shake, Alexander, Joannis auf To, Takopo, Nicolea, Jokicch.

995
00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:10,000
Speaker 1: It's tough.

996
00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:13,520
Speaker 4: This is not tough for me. My point guard is

997
00:48:13,560 --> 00:48:17,399
Speaker 4: gonna be Shay. I got Kevin Durant at the two,

998
00:48:18,440 --> 00:48:22,520
Speaker 4: I got Greek Freak at the three, with Joker at

999
00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:23,879
Speaker 4: the four, and Winby at the five.

1000
00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:31,279
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, so I get that theory. But for

1001
00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:33,439
Speaker 3: me in theory, I'm just I'm taking Kate the older

1002
00:48:33,440 --> 00:48:35,399
Speaker 3: guy off the bench. I'm like, Katie, come off the bench.

1003
00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:39,640
Speaker 3: But if you're looking at lineups, I'm not even thinking

1004
00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:42,200
Speaker 3: about just like position. I'm just thinking non position was

1005
00:48:42,840 --> 00:48:44,719
Speaker 3: I'm just bringing Katie off the bench. He probably could

1006
00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:49,840
Speaker 3: use Damna play the the three.

1007
00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:54,759
Speaker 1: Actually, Wemby's coming off the bench wild, He's coming off

1008
00:48:54,800 --> 00:48:57,280
Speaker 1: the bench so I can have lineup balance, Like.

1009
00:48:58,719 --> 00:49:01,560
Speaker 2: Jo Kisch is my five, honest is my four? Kd

1010
00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:02,320
Speaker 2: is my three?

1011
00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:08,040
Speaker 1: Cha's my two and Lucas my one or vice versa,

1012
00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:10,719
Speaker 1: whichever one I got Luca, what was one of them?

1013
00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:13,080
Speaker 1: Is guarding the worst guy out the back court I

1014
00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:14,880
Speaker 1: got I need, I need.

1015
00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:19,680
Speaker 3: I need one. Based on defense, there's nobody just be

1016
00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:22,520
Speaker 3: honest protective. So just John at the three protect. I'm

1017
00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:27,760
Speaker 3: going shave one, No Luca one at my two, Jannie

1018
00:49:27,880 --> 00:49:32,680
Speaker 3: the three, Wenby at the four, O.

1019
00:49:32,760 --> 00:49:35,040
Speaker 4: K D damn the mostable.

1020
00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:38,280
Speaker 3: Then if we're going positions, I would go Katie.

1021
00:49:38,320 --> 00:49:41,560
Speaker 1: But the only thing I will consider switching Janie with

1022
00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:43,440
Speaker 1: Wemby at my.

1023
00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:47,480
Speaker 3: Four, which I'm considering probably will do. Actually, I'm considering

1024
00:49:47,560 --> 00:49:50,560
Speaker 3: Jannis and kat Like if I switch out somebody.

1025
00:49:50,239 --> 00:49:53,360
Speaker 4: There's no three on the bench, the defensive player for

1026
00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:54,480
Speaker 4: the next five years on.

1027
00:49:56,040 --> 00:49:57,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's fair, that's fair.

1028
00:49:57,640 --> 00:50:01,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, Jannie is is actually coming off of the bench.

1029
00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:06,200
Speaker 1: I got shooters at all five positions. I'm a five

1030
00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:11,040
Speaker 1: out team right now, and I still have win Yama

1031
00:50:11,200 --> 00:50:15,600
Speaker 1: at covering my defense flying around disrupting everything for me.

1032
00:50:16,080 --> 00:50:19,799
Speaker 1: So yeah, just because Gianni's you, you can't shoot, I'm

1033
00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:24,239
Speaker 1: I'm I'm yeah, I'm a five. Yeah, it's like, bro,

Speaker 3: better stretch for out there?

1100
00:54:00,880 --> 00:54:04,080
Speaker 2: Stretch Katie is playing the three on your team?

1101
00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:07,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe old to be a three, but yeah, maybe

1102
00:54:07,840 --> 00:54:10,480
Speaker 3: the four. Yeah, I could look for three. Who's the better.

1103
00:54:10,920 --> 00:54:13,680
Speaker 1: Who's a better three three out there?

1104
00:54:16,120 --> 00:54:19,279
Speaker 3: I mean, well, we everybody's healthy at this point.

1105
00:54:20,080 --> 00:54:22,760
Speaker 2: Whoever's playing Tatum is not healthy.

1106
00:54:22,800 --> 00:54:26,200
Speaker 1: I guess Tatum, you're not on there? Yeah, that would

1107
00:54:26,200 --> 00:54:32,680
Speaker 1: have been nobody Bro Kawhi. Wow, Okay, your team is

1108
00:54:32,800 --> 00:54:34,800
Speaker 1: and we are assuming all of these because Kawhi is

1109
00:54:34,840 --> 00:54:35,680
Speaker 1: not out for the season.

1110
00:54:36,320 --> 00:54:38,719
Speaker 4: I'm looking at his squad. His squad is gonna be

1111
00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:39,840
Speaker 4: dealing with some injuries.

1112
00:54:41,840 --> 00:54:47,720
Speaker 1: So Paul seems is yokish nis in the back court,

1113
00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:52,279
Speaker 1: I mean, excuse me, in the front court. Physically imposing

1114
00:54:52,600 --> 00:54:55,200
Speaker 1: Booker and on the wings.

1115
00:54:56,320 --> 00:54:59,080
Speaker 4: I got shooting, I got i Q, I got i.

1116
00:54:59,040 --> 00:55:02,680
Speaker 1: Q Booker and on the wings and then Steph Curry

1117
00:55:02,760 --> 00:55:07,080
Speaker 1: running the point. Could you imagine Jo Kicchen Giannis or

1118
00:55:07,160 --> 00:55:11,799
Speaker 1: Yo Kicchen Steph Jesus, Like I don't have Curry Jo

1119
00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:15,200
Speaker 1: Kic in a pick and roll like with a defense shooting.

1120
00:55:14,920 --> 00:55:18,839
Speaker 4: I got Joker hitting Gianna's back door for the line.

1121
00:55:19,080 --> 00:55:19,800
Speaker 2: It's crazy.

1122
00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:21,319
Speaker 3: I need more shooting.

1123
00:55:21,320 --> 00:55:24,560
Speaker 1: Like Jo Kic on the four on three after set

1124
00:55:24,640 --> 00:55:26,640
Speaker 1: the screen for Curry, you got.

1125
00:55:27,040 --> 00:55:28,200
Speaker 2: Or even your man.

1126
00:55:28,360 --> 00:55:31,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I gotta say Paul's team is Yeah, it's just

1127
00:55:31,960 --> 00:55:33,320
Speaker 1: more well balanced.

1128
00:55:33,440 --> 00:55:35,479
Speaker 3: Would he got more? He got better? Got more shoot?

1129
00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:37,480
Speaker 3: If I would have got like if I could have

1130
00:55:37,480 --> 00:55:39,760
Speaker 3: gotten like a clay and golden state.

1131
00:55:39,640 --> 00:55:42,799
Speaker 1: Like they could, because guys could probably prop up that

1132
00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:46,600
Speaker 1: defense if they're fully locked in like Wemby Shade Cade.

1133
00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:52,080
Speaker 3: Warming situation, Kawhi, Katie and Weby at the back of

1134
00:55:52,120 --> 00:55:57,040
Speaker 3: the but it's creaky needs KD and Kawhi though man

1135
00:55:57,239 --> 00:55:57,759
Speaker 3: protecting the.

1136
00:55:57,719 --> 00:56:00,960
Speaker 2: Rim way better defensively.

1137
00:56:01,400 --> 00:56:09,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, this year, but Johanne and Booker ste I got

1138
00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:14,719
Speaker 3: higher i Q Yeah, Like the book is decent defensively,

1139
00:56:15,360 --> 00:56:16,760
Speaker 3: Stephan k Like.

1140
00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:20,120
Speaker 1: You're definitely, You're definitely playing the kind of defense was like,

1141
00:56:20,760 --> 00:56:22,040
Speaker 1: guys just know to be in.

1142
00:56:22,000 --> 00:56:22,680
Speaker 2: The right spot.

1143
00:56:23,080 --> 00:56:25,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, the i Q defensive.

1144
00:56:24,880 --> 00:56:27,759
Speaker 1: Yes, And Edwards has proven that he could be a

1145
00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:29,840
Speaker 1: lockdown forerim the defender whenever he wants to.

1146
00:56:29,920 --> 00:56:30,680
Speaker 3: That's one guy.

1147
00:56:31,520 --> 00:56:34,040
Speaker 4: I think we just let y'all shoot a little bit.

1148
00:56:34,400 --> 00:56:35,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I missing shooting.

1149
00:56:36,160 --> 00:56:41,040
Speaker 4: You got k D why but there? I mean offensive.

1150
00:56:42,480 --> 00:56:46,560
Speaker 2: The offensive fire power on Paul's team is just absurd.

1151
00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:48,399
Speaker 3: But you're really sleeping on my team right now.

1152
00:56:48,440 --> 00:56:51,840
Speaker 1: So Curry Jo kic Ant, you're.

1153
00:56:51,719 --> 00:56:55,920
Speaker 3: Really sleeping m v P might be back to back.

00:56:55,840 --> 00:56:59,839
Speaker 4: A little, y'all, A little y'all. Are your wings are

Speaker 3: Yeah?

1161
00:57:11,880 --> 00:57:14,360
Speaker 1: When you first had Kawhi and your team, he was

1162
00:57:14,520 --> 00:57:17,280
Speaker 1: like the best defensive players since like Scottie Pippen.

1163
00:57:17,280 --> 00:57:19,080
Speaker 3: Right, he's a he's a great two way player.

1164
00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:20,280
Speaker 2: He was insane.

1165
00:57:20,400 --> 00:57:22,920
Speaker 3: You still score the ball. But I got bigger wins

1166
00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:27,400
Speaker 3: and I got bigger wings, good size, like and I

1167
00:57:27,440 --> 00:57:30,040
Speaker 3: feel like Steph ain't young.

1168
00:57:31,040 --> 00:57:33,960
Speaker 2: Let us know we got handling in the comments.

1169
00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:36,640
Speaker 4: Ball handling is much better, y'all gonna turn it over.

1170
00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:39,280
Speaker 3: You sleeping on.

Speaker 3: Kahi handler ballati.

1173
00:57:46,800 --> 00:57:49,000
Speaker 2: Whi is a little robotic with the with the.

1174
00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:51,680
Speaker 3: You ain't stealing it when we can handle that.

1175
00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:52,720
Speaker 4: But I got five guys.

1176
00:57:53,160 --> 00:57:54,880
Speaker 1: I got five guys that can push the blank.

1177
00:57:57,000 --> 00:57:59,480
Speaker 3: I got to say what you'll forget one get the

1178
00:57:59,480 --> 00:58:01,000
Speaker 3: doubles behind the back step.

1179
00:58:00,760 --> 00:58:02,800
Speaker 4: Back, not pushing.

1180
00:58:02,960 --> 00:58:07,040
Speaker 3: I do like catch a lot backwards. Something crazy like.

1181
00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:11,440
Speaker 1: The defensive potential of Cage, Shay and Wenby as a

1182
00:58:11,480 --> 00:58:15,400
Speaker 1: locked in group with the perimeter pressure and the pressure

1183
00:58:15,440 --> 00:58:18,680
Speaker 1: that they that Wenby puts on the rim. But man,

1184
00:58:18,800 --> 00:58:21,560
Speaker 1: it's just the older the older gentleman is what is

1185
00:58:21,600 --> 00:58:24,360
Speaker 1: what worries me. The most crazy guys are a little

1186
00:58:24,360 --> 00:58:27,720
Speaker 1: bit older. So I'm giving he's older.

00:59:42,320 --> 00:59:48,760
Speaker 1: Nonetheless, Blue Face got out of prison recently and mentioned

1215
00:59:49,800 --> 00:59:54,320
Speaker 1: that he saw you on the yard hooping with his

1216
00:59:54,440 --> 00:59:59,440
Speaker 1: fellow inmates. Could you tell us about that experience the

1217
00:59:59,520 --> 01:00:02,520
Speaker 1: program that you're a part of, Like, how'd you end

1218
01:00:02,600 --> 01:00:06,240
Speaker 1: up hooping with you know, guys that are incarcerated in

1219
01:00:06,240 --> 01:00:08,400
Speaker 1: the federal and state penitentiary.

1220
01:00:08,480 --> 01:00:10,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, too, of the homies, said I can't take credit

1221
01:00:10,840 --> 01:00:13,720
Speaker 3: for to the homies and founders of it. And you know,

1222
01:00:13,760 --> 01:00:15,439
Speaker 3: they even tell me about it. They told me about

1223
01:00:15,480 --> 01:00:17,560
Speaker 3: it and I never had the time because I was playing.

1224
01:00:18,880 --> 01:00:20,120
Speaker 3: But the first time I was able to go in

1225
01:00:20,280 --> 01:00:22,040
Speaker 3: was when I told my knee and I was rehaving

1226
01:00:22,960 --> 01:00:24,560
Speaker 3: So they're like, if we go in, we kind of

1227
01:00:24,560 --> 01:00:26,280
Speaker 3: try to give them a day of freedom. We bring

1228
01:00:26,280 --> 01:00:29,120
Speaker 3: a DJ, we go hoop, we go coach, teach, you

1229
01:00:29,120 --> 01:00:32,320
Speaker 3: know all that stuff. We get some content, share their stories,

1230
01:00:32,600 --> 01:00:35,600
Speaker 3: some of them unjust some just but try to inspire

1231
01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:39,080
Speaker 3: the youth and try to, you know, help our people understand,

1232
01:00:39,200 --> 01:00:41,480
Speaker 3: educate them what it's about, and make sure they don't

1233
01:00:41,480 --> 01:00:45,040
Speaker 3: make the same mistakes those guys made. So it was dope.

1234
01:00:45,080 --> 01:00:45,200
Speaker 1: Man.

1235
01:00:45,240 --> 01:00:46,480
Speaker 3: My first time I went man, I was like, Yo,

1236
01:00:46,520 --> 01:00:47,800
Speaker 3: this is this is a dope thing.

1237
01:00:47,960 --> 01:00:48,160
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1238
01:00:48,160 --> 01:00:51,320
Speaker 3: And I never intended to play. I was just gonna

1239
01:00:51,360 --> 01:00:54,040
Speaker 3: get there, chop it up, you know, watch coach. But

1240
01:00:54,200 --> 01:00:55,920
Speaker 3: one game they didn't have enough players, and yo, we

1241
01:00:55,920 --> 01:00:57,640
Speaker 3: need you to hoop. And I actually went out there

1242
01:00:57,640 --> 01:00:59,240
Speaker 3: in some pumas that was not scared.

1243
01:01:00,040 --> 01:01:00,640
Speaker 4: I wasn't.

1244
01:01:01,120 --> 01:01:03,920
Speaker 3: I was. When I first went in, I was like,

1245
01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:05,040
Speaker 3: I was wondering.

1246
01:01:05,080 --> 01:01:06,880
Speaker 4: It was like, man, one of these dudes tackle me

1247
01:01:07,000 --> 01:01:07,600
Speaker 4: or something like.

1248
01:01:07,920 --> 01:01:11,440
Speaker 3: I gotta as a coach, so I knew what they

1249
01:01:11,440 --> 01:01:13,400
Speaker 3: were up against. So before one in, I was like, damn,

1250
01:01:13,280 --> 01:01:16,040
Speaker 3: I think they be fucking people up. But when I

1251
01:01:16,080 --> 01:01:18,200
Speaker 3: went in and I coached and I watched them, like, Okay,

1252
01:01:18,280 --> 01:01:20,280
Speaker 3: it's it's solid, I'm saying, but they do get physical,

1253
01:01:20,280 --> 01:01:22,720
Speaker 3: but it's solid. Most of the yards were going are

1254
01:01:23,280 --> 01:01:24,520
Speaker 3: on averages level.

1255

Speaker 4: Two, which is not as level to level two.

1256
01:01:28,240 --> 01:01:31,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, so level four is like the guys that's been

1257
01:01:31,560 --> 01:01:36,960
Speaker 3: a long time and they probably have more crimes commit like.

1258
01:01:36,920 --> 01:01:38,360
Speaker 1: The yeah, murders.

1259
01:01:38,360 --> 01:01:40,200

1261
01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:50,040

1262
01:01:50,080 --> 01:01:51,560

1263
01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:57,840

1264
01:01:57,600 --> 01:01:59,240
Speaker 3: Not a lot some of them do, so we also

1265
01:01:59,280 --> 01:02:01,040
Speaker 3: try to be out and a resource for them when

1266
01:02:01,040 --> 01:02:02,360
Speaker 3: they do get out so they can get back on

1267
01:02:02,360 --> 01:02:02,760
Speaker 3: their feet.

1268
01:02:03,320 --> 01:02:06,120
Speaker 1: So that the program brought a couple of homies.

1275
01:02:18,880 --> 01:02:21,040

1276
01:02:21,080 --> 01:02:23,360
Speaker 3: the outside help them get on their feet. But yeah,

1277
01:02:23,560 --> 01:02:27,280
Speaker 3: level two is like lesser, it's like and basketball is

1278
01:02:27,280 --> 01:02:29,280

1282
01:02:37,200 --> 01:02:39,680
Speaker 3: might see six seven six eight, and and they referee

1283
01:02:39,720 --> 01:02:41,240
Speaker 3: and so they don't want to call in the fouls.

1284
01:02:42,120 --> 01:02:43,800
Speaker 3: So we won most of the games. We lost a

1285
01:02:43,840 --> 01:02:46,560
Speaker 3: couple of games too, because like, again, what.

1286
01:02:46,600 --> 01:02:49,400
Speaker 2: An incredible memory that they get to have, Like an

1287
01:02:49,520 --> 01:02:51,680
Speaker 2: NBA player came to the yard and we Actually that's

1288
01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:53,800

Speaker 3: it makes me appreciate my twenty four hours like free,

1291
01:03:01,680 --> 01:03:04,040
Speaker 3: Like we have so much access to things that they

1292
01:03:04,080 --> 01:03:07,600
Speaker 3: don't have. And it's a lot so many thank you, bro,

1295
01:03:13,520 --> 01:03:15,800

1296
01:03:15,880 --> 01:03:17,919
Speaker 3: to inspire them, try to make that sentence a little lighter.

1297
01:03:18,640 --> 01:03:20,960
Speaker 3: It's cool because we all got somebody that we know

1298
01:03:21,520 --> 01:03:23,520
