29
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:32,399
Speaker 1: you're watching in the second half of the season. But

30
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 1: we did have one game that we have to touch

31
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: on from last night in the Association, and that was

32
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 1: the No Dunk's Bowl. It was on TNT Bulls Raptors.

33
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 1: Some new faces or at least one playing for the Raps,

34
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:48,400
Speaker 1: but the Bulls get it done. Vucci, Baby and Derosen.

35
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 1: They score twenty four points apiece to help the Bulls

36
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 1: beat the Raps one sixteen to one.

37
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 4: Ten.

38
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 1: Trey Kirby has on all his Bulls gear here today,

39
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 1: even the shoesh How do I do this?

40
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 3: Yeah?

41
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 2: There we go, little quad Klotski.

42
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 1: So congratulations to you. Why don't you lead us off?

43
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:10,359
Speaker 2: Here?

44
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 1: Your your takeaways from Bulls beaten Raps?

45
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 2: Uh Vouch that guy's big cannot buy a three pointer

46
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,080
Speaker 2: this season, shooting under thirty percent from three, but last

47
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,399
Speaker 2: night had a size advantage, took advantage of it. Twelve

48
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 2: for seventeen on two pointers. Vouch went last night, and

49
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:27,919
Speaker 2: that was kind of the way the balls were rolling.

50
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 2: Chicago scored seventy four points in the paint, just fifty

51
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,720
Speaker 2: for the Raptors. It was kind of going both ways, like,

52
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,239
Speaker 2: absolutely cannot guard Scottie Barnes. He's a little bit quicker

53
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 2: than Vooch, which you saw quite a bit, I thought

54
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter. But Fad Young could not guard Vushevich,

55
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 2: Jantey Porter could not guard Butevich, and honestly, Scotty Barnes

56
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 2: when he wasn't blocking his shot above the rim, could

57
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 2: not guard Butchovic. I was watching, just thinking, man, the

58
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:55,919
Speaker 2: Raptors could really use some six foot nine guys.

59
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 1: I used to have them all back.

60
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:00,799
Speaker 2: But it came down to the clutch TI game five

61
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:02,519
Speaker 2: minutes left, and the Bulls were just a it's a

62
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 2: little bit better in the clutch. They shot fifty percent.

63
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 2: The Raptor shot thirty seven and a half percent. With

64
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 2: three new guys in their closing lineup, they looked like

65
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 2: they were feeling each other out, you know. I think

66
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 2: a manual quickly took a three with about two minutes left,

67
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 2: a bit of a chuck, I thought. The Raptors did

68
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 2: not make a field goal the last two minutes and

69
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 2: twenty one seconds of this game. They made one free throw,

70
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 2: a couple of turnovers in the clutch time for Scottie Barnes.

71
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 2: At one point he stepped out of bounds driving baseline.

72
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 2: Another time he was date up by Caruso, a little

73
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 2: bit harder to score on him than Vujovic, dribbled it

74
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 2: off his football went the other way. And then the Bulls,

75
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 2: they've been together for a while here, and they kind

76
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 2: of had two options in clutch time. DeRozan was the

77
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 2: main guy, and there were times where I was thinking

78
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 2: it should not be DeRozan as the main guy because

79
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 2: Kobe White had an incredible fourth quarter scoring when the

80
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 2: defense was tilted toward DeRozan and just being kind of

81
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 2: released of a release valve for DeRozan. Levine rolled his ankle,

82
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 2: so he wasn't out there. But yeah, I thought the

83
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 2: Bulls played pretty well down.

84
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 1: The stretch here.

85
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, came down to the wire, and that's mainly because

86
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 3: of Bruce Bruce Brown was out there for the Toronto Raptors,

87
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 3: his playing touchdown in Toronto three hours before game time.

88
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:14,839
Speaker 3: He didn't practice with the team, but he was out

89
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:18,040
Speaker 3: there and he was making everybody better because that's what

90
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 3: he does. He came off the bench fifteen big points,

91
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 3: seven to ten from the floor in twenty five minutes,

92
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 3: and he had to guard Vouch a lot of the time.

93
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,000
Speaker 3: In the fourth quarter, the guy's like six to three

94
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 3: and he was their backup center. They are lacking a center.

95
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 3: It would have been nice to have Yaka pertl out there.

96
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 3: It would have been nice not to be playing in

97
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 3: a back to back the NBA. He's got to get

98
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 3: rid of these absolutely, because it came down to Scotty Barnes,

99
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 3: who was the guy in this game and the game

100
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 3: before an incredible fourth quarter, and in this one he

101
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:47,279
Speaker 3: got there carrying the team. He was phenomenal thirty one points,

102
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 3: seven board, six assists, three steals and three blocks. And

103
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 3: then in the fourth maybe because it was a back

104
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 3: to back, but maybe he was just trying to put

105
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 3: everything through him. He had a couple key turnovers. Can't

106
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:57,760
Speaker 3: step out of bounds, you can't just dribble all the

107
00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 3: way to the rim and just throw it out and

108
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 3: hope everything works out. I feel like you like quickly

109
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 3: and Barrett just didn't have games in this one. They

110
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,160
Speaker 3: just needed one supporting guy. One supporting guy to Barnes,

111
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 3: and it could have been an easy Raptors win in

112
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,839
Speaker 3: this one, but they are getting used to each other

113
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 3: and that's gonna happen. It was really came down to

114
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:22,279
Speaker 3: just somebody supporting Barnes late and also having a tall guy.

115
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 3: And I can't wait to see Jaka Perl playing with

116
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:29,080
Speaker 3: those three guys and Barnes quickly and Barrett plus Bruce

117
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 3: Brown and just for these next forty games to determine

118
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,279
Speaker 3: whether or not they're going to keep Bruce Brown, because

119
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 3: there was so many fun plays Bruce to Barrett in

120
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 3: this one. But you know, kudos to the to the

121
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 3: Bulls because Kobe White played incredible on Quickly. He sort

122
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 3: of took him out of his game Quickly had three

123
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 3: shots inside the arc in this game because Kobe White

124
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,919
Speaker 3: was doing a great job guarding him and Vucci was

125
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 3: using his body down low, and it really just came

126
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 3: down to no height and an old, stinky back to

127
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:57,480
Speaker 3: back that they got to get rid of.

128
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,120
Speaker 1: So Zach Lavine did leave the court after rolling his

129
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 1: ankle there in the early in the third quarter, did

130
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 1: return for like a little bit of a stint, but

131
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 1: then he played just just over two minutes in the

132
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,160
Speaker 1: fourth quarter. So we'll be keeping your eye on that

133
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 1: because this is a guy that's in a million trade

134
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 1: rumors and they're trying to move off of him possibly,

135
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 1: so you see if that has any impact on that.

136
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 1: And then messiou Jeri yesterday leading into this game, you know,

137
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,160
Speaker 1: had his press conference addressing the trade and all that

138
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 1: and basically said, we're not done trading, like we're making

139
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,279
Speaker 1: moves here, like we are going to be actively looking

140
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: to shop some guys in theory moving up to this

141
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:34,280
Speaker 1: deadline because we still have three weeks left.

142
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 3: Now.

143
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:36,719
Speaker 1: Is that Gary Trent Junior? Is it possibly Pertole? Is

144
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 1: it Bruce Brown himself? Yeah, exactly, so, I mean he

145
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:43,280
Speaker 1: was saying he even said that on record there, so so

146
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 1: we'll see that.

147
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 3: I know people like to rip the reps. Why did

148
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,120
Speaker 3: it take so long for you to trade Pascal Siam?

149
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:52,840
Speaker 3: It is very pleasing to see mess I say all right,

150
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:56,240
Speaker 3: we're doing it, We're moving on from everybody else.

151
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 1: Well, he explained why it took so long to make

152
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,040
Speaker 1: those deals. He said there was like a little bit

153
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:03,280
Speaker 1: of a like a hangover, if you want to call

154
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 1: it that, from trading de Rosen like a star player,

155
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:07,920
Speaker 1: and then they looked at it like a year ago

156
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 1: and thought, hmm, I think these guys deserve one more chance.

157
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 3: Here.

158
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 1: I'm talking Fred Siakam. Let's go get Perl. We'll use

159
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: that pick and maybe we got something here. And he

160
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 1: admitted he was wrong, but that was his thinking. It

161
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 1: was really refreshing, you know, GM press conference. He was

162
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 1: being quite real. Now people are gonna still sit there

163
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 1: and roll their eyes and say, well, you botched it,

164
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 1: you messed up. But he was like, yeah, maybe I did,

165
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 1: but I'm telling you my thinking of what was going

166
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 1: on here, and it was a little bit of like

167
00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 1: what happened with de Rosen, and he felt like it

168
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 1: was almost like too personal. And that's like the meshing

169
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 1: of business and the personal relationships he has and the

170
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 1: team has with players. It was a really really cool

171
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 1: press conference to hear. I thought someone being really sincere

172
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 1: up there. Unless he's just a master of spin and

173
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:53,080
Speaker 1: the guy can talk, Yeah he's good.

174
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,559
Speaker 3: Yeah I believed him. He kept it together a little

175
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 3: bit too long. But when you look back at those

176
00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 3: five years. The year after the championship, they went to

177
00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 3: the second round Game seven against Bots and Celtics. Things

178
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 3: look good, so let's see what Siakam can do the

179
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:06,640
Speaker 3: next year without him. The next year, they were playing

180
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 3: in Tampa Bay, Tampa Bay home games in Tampa Could

181
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 3: they pick a further city? So they gave him one

182
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 3: more chance, one more chance, four or five series agains

183
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 3: Philadelphia seventy six years. He broke Joe Embiid's face with

184
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 3: his elbow. That was weird. So three years and then

185
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 3: the fourth year was last year. That could have been

186
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 3: the year. That could have been the year to move him,

187
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 3: and it took a little bit too long. And that

188
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 3: was the year they tried it. They tried, let's see

189
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 3: what Barnes Siakham can do with Anonobi and i Yaka Pearl,

190
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 3: and it obviously didn't work out. So at least they

191
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:36,240
Speaker 3: pulled the plug. At least they pulled it and they

192
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 3: didn't pull another thread to get them to get them

193
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 3: to the playoffs.

194
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,439
Speaker 1: Here, Yeah, for sure, any other games from last night

195
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:44,079
Speaker 1: that you want to quickly touch on here before we

196
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 1: get into the NBA mid season.

197
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 3: Let's just go the mid season. We got lots to

198
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 3: talk about.

199
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 1: Okay, let's do it. So we're halfway through the NBA

200
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 1: season sort of caught you by surprise of him being honest.

201
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh crap, Yeah, a lot of these teams

202
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 1: have played, you know, forty one games. So the question

203
00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 1: here TK gets started. Biggest surprise the first half. We'll

204
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,560
Speaker 1: do disappointments too, so you don't need to go like

205
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:05,439
Speaker 1: negative surprise if you don't want to, you can say

206
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 1: that for disappointment. But biggest positive surprise from the first

207
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 1: half of the season.

208
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:12,280
Speaker 2: I think for me, it's how fast the Clippers turned good.

209
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 2: They jelled immediately. They lost their first five with James Harden,

210
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 2: and it looked terrible. Everybody in the podcasting world was

211
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:23,080
Speaker 2: dunking on the Clippers and James Harden's plus minus. It

212
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 2: looked like they would just enter the ball to him

213
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 2: at the elbow and he would stand there waiting for

214
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 2: somebody to cut, waiting for somebody to cut, waiting for

215
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:32,200
Speaker 2: somebody to get open. Nothing was happening. He was so slow.

216
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 2: Then the easiest move in the coaching game. They moved

217
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:38,680
Speaker 2: Russell Westbrook to the bench, even though people were saying

218
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 2: Harden should go to the bench. A crazy, crazy take,

219
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:44,199
Speaker 2: and then instantly the Clippers became one of the best

220
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 2: teams in the league twenty three and seven in their

221
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 2: next thirty games. That's tied with the Celtics for the

222
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:50,840
Speaker 2: best record in the past thirty games. They're third in

223
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 2: offense right now, thirteenth in defense, fifth in net rating.

224
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:59,520
Speaker 2: Kawhi Leonard signed a new deal. He's smiling all the time.

225
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 2: These guys are having so much fun on the court.

226
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 2: Harden seems like the perfect teammate right now. I don't

227
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:07,440
Speaker 2: think you would have picked that going there, but he's

228
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 2: coaching up all the big guys. You hear got Zubots

229
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 2: on Paul George's podcast. I love the synergy between production

230
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 2: on the court and production of content right there talking

231
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 2: about how much Harden is meant to them, to the

232
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,200
Speaker 2: fact where Zubots goes out of the lineup and instantly

233
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 2: Mason Plumbley comes back from injury and he's getting buckets

234
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 2: the exact same way. Harden is a great point guard.

235
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,080
Speaker 2: He's one of the best point guards in the league

236
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 2: right now, and he's setting everybody up here. The Clippers

237
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:36,679
Speaker 2: are absolutely cooking, and after the start they had, they

238
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 2: had a poor start to the season before they even

239
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 2: made the Harden trade. Then they make the hard in trade.

240
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 2: It looks bad, and it looked like a mistake, and

241
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 2: now you got to consider them at least a contender

242
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,439
Speaker 2: in the Western Conference. Everybody's gonna have questions about can

243
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,560
Speaker 2: this team make it to the playoffs? Intact can they

244
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 2: perform in the playoffs? But guess what, that's a question

245
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 2: mark for everybody. If Nikola Jokic gets hurt, the Nuggets

246
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 2: aren't winning a championship. Yeah, so I'm up on the

247
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 2: Clippers right right now. Definitely ready to get Lucy footballed.

248
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,320
Speaker 2: But tass is wearing a Charlie brown shirt today, so

249
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 2: I'm feeling confident.

250
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,440
Speaker 3: No, he could have gotten bad at the beginning because

251
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:12,599
Speaker 3: James Harden when he was traded said I'm not a

252
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,320
Speaker 3: system player. I am a system So you think everything

253
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:18,160
Speaker 3: would be going through him. It did not. I think

254
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:21,480
Speaker 3: a biggest surprise is Kawhi Leonard playing in every game

255
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:25,559
Speaker 3: this season. Last fall, we knew Kawhi Leonard would be

256
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:28,559
Speaker 3: sitting out back to backs, and going into the offseason,

257
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 3: the NBA changed the rules. Load management can't happen anymore.

258
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 3: Photos of the Clippers everywhere, Kawhi Leonard everywhere, and Kawhi

259
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 3: Leonard is no longer managing his load after an offseason

260
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,840
Speaker 3: where he underwent a surgery on his knee, So that

261
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:45,720
Speaker 3: is extremely surprising in a different kind of way. He

262
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:47,680
Speaker 3: was doing this with the Spurs, where he was just

263
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 3: a mechanical playing whenever he wanted and playing extremely well.

264
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 3: But he's gotten healthier at thirty two, so it is

265
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:58,000
Speaker 3: a little surprising that it's not load management anymore. It's

266
00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:03,479
Speaker 3: all load Leonard, it's could try Leonard, it's full load management.

267
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 3: Kawhi can play. I don't know which one we go with,

268
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 3: but is pretty good. Yeah. The fact that Kawhi Leonard,

269
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 3: because he's so quiet and maybe because he doesn't do

270
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 3: social media, he doesn't talk at all. He kind of

271
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,040
Speaker 3: digs back seat. We don't all think, oh man, that

272
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 3: guy's one of the best players in the NBA, but

273
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:22,920
Speaker 3: he clearly is. When he was in the playoffs last

274
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:26,080
Speaker 3: year for two games, he was and then that disappeared.

275
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,439
Speaker 3: So he could be. The fact that he decided to

276
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 3: play every single game and back to backs and all

277
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:33,200
Speaker 3: that he looks like Spurs Leonard all of a sudden.

278
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 2: He did miss four games with I think it was

279
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:38,040
Speaker 2: a hit pointer. But Paul George has only missed two games.

280
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,160
Speaker 2: My theory is that they're saving their rest games for

281
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,400
Speaker 2: the end of the season. Play hard through the first

282
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,280
Speaker 2: half of the season, get a good seed, and then

283
00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 2: you can rest a little bit more at the end

284
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 2: the way you know most teams do when they got

285
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 2: their seeds settled.

286
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,800
Speaker 1: Clippers are having a moment. There's no doubt. Even adding

287
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,160
Speaker 1: on to what you're saying, they're hot play here, they're

288
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:56,320
Speaker 1: getting the All Star Game. We got Steve Bomber telling

289
00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:57,960
Speaker 1: us about all the toilets and the into It Dome.

290
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:00,840
Speaker 1: They got this new wall of sound. They are you know,

291
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 1: they're being talked about, which you a lot of the

292
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,280
Speaker 1: times can't say about the Clippers, or when you're talking

293
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 1: about them, it's like, oh, what's going wrong, Oh that

294
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 1: was a weird trade. Oh this guy's sitting again, And

295
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 1: that's not the case. They are playing an elite level

296
00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 1: and are definitely convincing a lot of people out there

297
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:18,520
Speaker 1: once again, Oh, this team could win a championship if

298
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 1: they're all out there and they're all playing like this. Absolutely,

299
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 1: it's just whether they will.

300
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 2: And what's the worst that's ever happened? Having faith in

301
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:25,600
Speaker 2: the Clippers, you know.

302
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:29,200
Speaker 1: You know, it's unbelievable. Should be fine. What about you

303
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:30,840
Speaker 1: to ask big a surprise from the first half.

304
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:34,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, other than that one Oklahoma City Thunder, I've adapted

305
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,559
Speaker 3: with a big three. They've got a big three, a

306
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 3: legitimate big three with Shaye Chet and Jalen Williams. Jay

307
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 3: Dubb is awesome his last three games. He's just taking over,

308
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 3: but he's so perfect in that role. And Chet looks

309
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 3: incredible as a rook here as a seven footer, and

310
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 3: Shay just looks like a superstar. The fact that they're

311
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 3: this young and they still have an incredible defense. They're

312
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,120
Speaker 3: you know, they're nearing top five in both offense and defense.

313
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 3: They're just lacking in size. Jalen Williams, who I just

314
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 3: talked about, he's their their go two scories, literally like

315
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:07,720
Speaker 3: six or five out there, and Shay's another guard. They

316
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 3: need somebody to help out Chet Holmgren. It's clear they

317
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:13,920
Speaker 3: need a big But even even though they're teeny, they're

318
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 3: teeny tiny. They're they're they're a little too small. Maybe

319
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 3: the other Jalen Williams helps out and the size there,

320
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 3: but they're so damn good. It's just surprising that this

321
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 3: young that they're they're in shape here to win the

322
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 3: Western Conference in terms of standings going into the off season.

323
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 3: I won't say winning Western Conference going all the way

324
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,840
Speaker 3: to the NBA Finals, but they could. They could easily

325
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 3: win two series. They could, So yeah, that is the

326
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 3: most surprising thing. Young superstars making things happen with a

327
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:43,680
Speaker 3: literally a big three.

328
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 1: I heard Billy Boy Bill Simmons talking on his pot

329
00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:48,760
Speaker 1: about the idea of Okay, see, they have to go

330
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 1: get a backup big or another big to help out

331
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 1: Chet Holmgren because you know, foul trouble or maybe you

332
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 1: get into a playoff series where it's a tough matchup, whatever,

333
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 1: he has a couple of bad games. You need somebody

334
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:00,440
Speaker 1: else that you can rely on. And he doesn't think

335
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:02,680
Speaker 1: it's the other Jalen Williams who's okay. But I think

336
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:06,160
Speaker 1: maybe Bill's right. So he's throwing out names like Pearl

337
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 1: maybe with the Raps, Nick Claxton I think was one

338
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:13,040
Speaker 1: of the names that came up. Maybe Nick Richards or

339
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:14,440
Speaker 1: somebody on the Hornets.

340
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 2: Any of the Knicks bring them back, any of the Knicks.

341
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:19,960
Speaker 2: I thought Collison would actually be great for them because

342
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,520
Speaker 2: more so than a guy like Nick Claxton, they need

343
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 2: a rebounder, so Andre Drummond honestly is a guy I

344
00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:25,280
Speaker 2: would be thinking of.

345
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:28,000
Speaker 1: Sure, Sure, it makes some sense. He also on the

346
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 1: same podcast had a big talking point about the idea

347
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:36,800
Speaker 1: of the Warriors trading Steph Curry to the Hornets Godfather offer.

348
00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 1: Would you think the Warriors would trade Steph Curry to

349
00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:42,240
Speaker 1: the Hornets? No, okay, I didn't think so.

350
00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 2: But if they offer LaMelo in four first round picks,

351
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 2: they got to have a meeting, right.

352
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,640
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, they have to have a meeting. I would

353
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 1: like to piggyback off your thunder as a surprise. Just

354
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 1: having the Wolves in thunder atop the Western Conference is

355
00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 1: the biggest surprise to me from the first forty one games.

356
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:00,400
Speaker 1: You talked about the Thunder, So I'll move on them.

357
00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 1: The Wolves are thirty and eleven here, and they've you know,

358
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:05,720
Speaker 1: we've hit the midpoint of their schedule. I guess they're

359
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 1: thirty one and eleven. I should say, now, that's on

360
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 1: pace for sixty wins. They haven't won more of that.

361
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 1: They've never won more than fifty eight. And that was

362
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 1: the year they actually went to the Western Conference finals. Like,

363
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:17,680
Speaker 1: we're way back go three or four. We're talking Kevin

364
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,560
Speaker 1: Garnett year's here where they actually got past the first round.

365
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,200
Speaker 1: The Wolves are dominant at home, they're dominant against their conference,

366
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 1: and it's like something like where they could go and

367
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 1: lose the rest of their games this year and still

368
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 1: have a better record than like almost half of the

369
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 1: other seasons of their existence. It's that it's incredible stat

370
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:39,640
Speaker 1: that they could just lose from here on out and

371
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 1: still have a really good record overall for them. And

372
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:44,400
Speaker 1: we came into the season going is this gonna work?

373
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 1: I mean, it didn't look like it was gonna work

374
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 1: with Gobert and Cat, and we thought, oh, they might

375
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:52,160
Speaker 1: have like a really small sort of twenty game sample

376
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:53,880
Speaker 1: size here to like if they don't figure this out,

377
00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:55,640
Speaker 1: then maybe they trade in one of those guys, Maybe

378
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 1: they hand the keys over to Ant, you move off

379
00:16:57,640 --> 00:16:59,280
Speaker 1: of Cat. And that hasn't been the issue. They put

380
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: it to bed right away and they are just an

381
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:03,880
Speaker 1: elite defensive team, which they should be, which we thought

382
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 1: they would be when Gobert was there. And then you've

383
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:09,040
Speaker 1: got enough offense, especially led by Anthony Edwards and then

384
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:11,399
Speaker 1: Karl Anthony Towns who's gone completely under the radar this

385
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,160
Speaker 1: season in a good way. You know, he just goes

386
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 1: about his business. You know, the numbers are not gonna

387
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:19,960
Speaker 1: wow you, but he's solid and consistent, and they've surprised

388
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,640
Speaker 1: me because I thought, I don't know, is this really

389
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 1: gonna work in today's NBA with those two towers and

390
00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 1: the rest of the pieces they had around there, and

391
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:28,760
Speaker 1: maybe you should just go to Anthony Edwards and just

392
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:30,359
Speaker 1: lean into that. No, you can do it all at

393
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,400
Speaker 1: the same time. At least they have through the first

394
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:33,080
Speaker 1: half of the season.

395
00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 3: Yeah. The only surprising thing for me watching them is

396
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:39,920
Speaker 3: their offense sometimes a little slow and doesn't get through things.

397
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:44,959
Speaker 3: They're nineteenth in offense. Besides Carl and Anthony Edwards. Just

398
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 3: want some big Rudi or Mike Conley or Jaden McDaniel's

399
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:50,879
Speaker 3: games because those guys are everaching pretty low numbers. I

400
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:53,439
Speaker 3: mean all three of them, thirteen, eleven, and ten, all

401
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:58,040
Speaker 3: three of them respectively. So they need a little help offensively. Obviously,

402
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:01,200
Speaker 3: Nasrit is awesome off the bench. Maybe we just need

403
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:04,439
Speaker 3: a little more Nick Nikhil Alexander Walker in that in

404
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:07,919
Speaker 3: that lineup, But all in all, one of the best defenses,

405
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 3: great dudes. Yeah, So it's it's incredible.

406
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 1: They have an identity and that's like, we're the best

407
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:14,399
Speaker 1: defensive team in the league, and then we believe we

408
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:17,360
Speaker 1: have enough scoring in a close game with our perimeter

409
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:19,919
Speaker 1: star and Anthony Edwards and our guy inside who can

410
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:21,480
Speaker 1: also stretch the floor a little bit and cat. It

411
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:23,760
Speaker 1: seems to be, you know, the recipe right now is working.

412
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:26,840
Speaker 1: Whether they can do this in a playoff series, win

413
00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 1: two or three, whatever, we'll see. But man, Anthony Edwards

414
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,760
Speaker 1: with another awesome highlight last night too, going off the

415
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 1: backboard to himself. That's back to back nights where he's

416
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,960
Speaker 1: had just incredible plays, like the dunk against the Pistons.

417
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:40,960
Speaker 1: He's looking like young MJ. The way he's contorting his

418
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:42,879
Speaker 1: body in the air where he took off from and

419
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:46,359
Speaker 1: then last night with the swash buckling and slamming. Call

420
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:53,200
Speaker 1: incredible swash buckling and slamming. When Anthony Edwards did the

421
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 1: pump fake and off the glass.

422
00:18:54,840 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 3: Was that great? But it would wash. It wasn't necessary

423
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 3: a dunk.

424
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:02,119
Speaker 1: It was close to it, don I mean, it was

425
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:03,760
Speaker 1: a bit of a thrunk, but yeah, I mean it

426
00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:04,360
Speaker 1: was incredible.

427
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:05,159
Speaker 3: It was incredible.

428
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, like where just where that guy can take

429
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 1: off and how high he can stay in the air

430
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:11,120
Speaker 1: or how long he can stay in the air. It's

431
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:13,560
Speaker 1: it's it's incredible. So I got the I got the Wolves,

432
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:15,199
Speaker 1: and I think most people would have them on a

433
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:16,960
Speaker 1: list of where they are right now.

434
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,159
Speaker 2: I think had three of the top ten plays on

435
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,440
Speaker 2: NBA dot COM's Top ten plays last night. And I

436
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:24,639
Speaker 2: think I heard John Krasinski say on Zach Low's podcast

437
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:28,360
Speaker 2: that the Timberwolves have been in first place longer this

438
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:31,600
Speaker 2: season than they have in the entire history of the

439
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 2: rest of their franchise.

440
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:34,480
Speaker 1: Wow, it's amazing.

441
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:37,399
Speaker 2: They've been like in first place prior to the season

442
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 2: for like ten days or something like that. And I

443
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 2: don't know what the exact number is now, but I

444
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 2: just went and looked at January first, they were in

445
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:43,680
Speaker 2: first place.

446
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:47,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's amazing, incredible. Thirty and eleven, Just to

447
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:48,919
Speaker 1: get that right, I said thirty one and eleven, But

448
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 1: that's thirty and eleven at the exact halfway point. So

449
00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 1: that's a that's a sixty win pace. That's that's a

450
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:54,400
Speaker 1: damn good team.

451
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,440
Speaker 3: It's the halfway point. That's when Anthony Edwards woke up yesterday.

452
00:19:57,920 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 3: He just chilled for the first half. Then he had

453
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:03,040
Speaker 3: twice points in the second half. He literally didn't wasn't great.

454
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 3: He said it afterwards. They're just kind of sleeping. That's

455
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 3: what happens in January. You know, the good team's can

456
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:11,359
Speaker 3: just say we're turning it on, and that's what they did.

457
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:15,040
Speaker 1: All right, let's go to biggest disappointment from the first half.

458
00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:16,040
Speaker 1: Taest you want to get started.

459
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, I don't know. I will say. Just watching

460
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 3: the Team USA and the World Cup this summer, I

461
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:27,439
Speaker 3: thought mckelbridge was ready to take that ascendance. Last year.

462
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:29,720
Speaker 3: He was twenty six points per game with the Brooklyn Nets. Okay,

463
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:31,720
Speaker 3: he's making his first All Star Game next year, and

464
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:35,119
Speaker 3: he looked good with Team USA. He looks phenomenal. But

465
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 3: things are just different in Brooklyn. He's dropped five points

466
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 3: per game, just doesn't look as comfortable. Things are really

467
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:43,720
Speaker 3: strange in terms of the rotation because Ben Simmons was

468
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:45,879
Speaker 3: there to start the season and things have changed. So

469
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:48,280
Speaker 3: I think I think, you know, he goes from the

470
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,600
Speaker 3: number three guy with Phoenix all of a sudden, you're

471
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:52,800
Speaker 3: the number one guy in Brooklyn. Things look good. All

472
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:54,959
Speaker 3: of a sudden, Ben Simmons is carrying the ball up

473
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,640
Speaker 3: all the time and things just I'm just making excuses

474
00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 3: for him. But because this ain't right, This just ain't right, disappointing.

475
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:02,840
Speaker 3: I don't know. Mckael Bridge is just better. At some

476
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:04,879
Speaker 3: point he's gonna make an All Star game. But this

477
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 3: start wasn't good, so we'll start with that. There's there's

478
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,160
Speaker 3: like a billion things to pick from in the.

479
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:12,680
Speaker 1: NBA, okay, I mean the Nets in general. You could

480
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:15,439
Speaker 1: also go with, yeah, like they started okay and have

481
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:18,920
Speaker 1: completely fallen apart, and now it sounds like everybody's available

482
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,960
Speaker 1: for trade outside of maybe like a Bridges and possibly

483
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,760
Speaker 1: like a Cam Johnson. But like we said, Claxton probably

484
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:32,439
Speaker 1: could be had. Finney Smith for sure, Dinwiddie, yeah, Royce o'nil,

485
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:32,639
Speaker 1: thank you.

486
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:37,240
Speaker 3: Yeah. Ben Simmons was really helping them. Yeah, and it's

487
00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:39,320
Speaker 3: unfortunate he can't play because of his back, and who

488
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:40,800
Speaker 3: the heck knows what's going to happen there.

489
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:43,879
Speaker 1: I can't even get off the island. There's no boats

490
00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:47,359
Speaker 1: coming anymore. I'm just stuck on Ben Simmons Island, just

491
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,200
Speaker 1: hanging out, walking around, you know, trying to find the

492
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:53,880
Speaker 1: odd coconut just surviving. But nobody's coming. And I can't

493
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,000
Speaker 1: blame you. I'm not telling you to come. I'm not

494
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:57,760
Speaker 1: even waving a white flight to come save me. I

495
00:21:57,800 --> 00:21:59,919
Speaker 1: don't even have rocks that say so os down on

496
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:05,200
Speaker 1: beach you shouldn't come. It's sad. I mean Las Wiggins

497
00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:08,360
Speaker 1: Island is going well. I'm just hopping between those two islands.

498
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, also incredibly disappointing.

499
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, what about you there, TK, Where are you going?

500
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:15,399
Speaker 1: That's five and fifteen in their last one. Yeah, that's crazy. Y.

501
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 2: I got three disappointments here. John Moran played nine games

502
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:22,320
Speaker 2: this season, twenty five of them were his fault. Suspended

503
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 2: at the beginning of the season, came back instantly hit

504
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:24,800
Speaker 2: a game winner.

505
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 1: That was awesome.

506
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:27,159
Speaker 2: We're like, great to have job act. This is going

507
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:29,360
Speaker 2: to be so much fun. It'll be interesting to see

508
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:31,160
Speaker 2: if the Grizzlies can make a push to the play

509
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,320
Speaker 2: in nine games later, he's out for the season. That's

510
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 2: a disappointment, not going to see that guy play. I

511
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:38,639
Speaker 2: think the Pistons have to be considered a massive disappointment here.

512
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:40,640
Speaker 2: They're over under this preseason twenty eight.

513
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:41,000
Speaker 3: And a half.

514
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 2: It's gotta take them two seasons to get to twenty

515
00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:45,879
Speaker 2: eight and a half at this great actually probably more

516
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:48,439
Speaker 2: than that. I'm doing the math. So that that is

517
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:52,119
Speaker 2: a disappointment. People thought they would be pointing the right direction.

518
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 2: I think it'll last this season and they've gone the

519
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:54,840
Speaker 2: other one.

520
00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:57,080
Speaker 1: They give a fat contract to you know what was

521
00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:59,639
Speaker 1: considered a good coach and maybe still is in Mney Wimbs.

522
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:03,800
Speaker 1: They have talent kid Cunningham, Durham, Jade and Ivy.

523
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 3: They finally finally trust that guy. Now things have changed

524
00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,159
Speaker 3: with Jade and Ivy playing. Yes they're better, Yes, close

525
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:10,800
Speaker 3: close losses at least, but.

526
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:13,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, that that longest losing streaking in People like to

527
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:14,560
Speaker 1: mention the Pistons close losses.

528
00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:16,800
Speaker 2: It's because the other team doesn't take him serious.

529
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 1: Well that's a good point.

530
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's it to me. It's like we got

531
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:20,679
Speaker 2: to play the fourth quarter to win it.

532
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,440
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, they're close losses.

533
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:25,679
Speaker 1: They are close losses.

534
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 2: And my last disappointment the Lakers are five hundred. Yeah,

535
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:31,040
Speaker 2: and Lebron and ad have missed the combined.

536
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:32,320
Speaker 1: Six games so far this season.

537
00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:34,760
Speaker 2: They told us continuity was going to work and then

538
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,680
Speaker 2: they instantly went away from their starting lineup that worked

539
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 2: in the playoffs last year. Vanderbilt was hurt. They started

540
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 2: with Prince there instead, and then they're like, Austin Reives,

541
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 2: you're not cooking right now, go to the bench. He's

542
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 2: better in the starting lineup. He plays perfectly next to Lebron.

543
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:48,840
Speaker 2: They put him back. He looks good as well. But

544
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:50,800
Speaker 2: this team has not been able to figure out their

545
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:53,600
Speaker 2: offense at all, and the defense isn't that elite level

546
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:54,359
Speaker 2: that we've seen before.

547
00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 3: The West is incredible when you look at it, when

548
00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:58,680
Speaker 3: you look all the way down to the Lakers, because

549
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,600
Speaker 3: the Wolves, Thunder, Nuggets, Clippers at the top, they ain't

550
00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:04,720
Speaker 3: going anywhere. They're just gonna be solid, followed by the

551
00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 3: Pelicans and the MAVs in five and six, who have

552
00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:09,919
Speaker 3: also looked good and are only getting better, frankly, and

553
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,440
Speaker 3: then seven through ten the playing teams right now are

554
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:14,800
Speaker 3: the Kings not going anywhere, They're too good for that.

555
00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:19,800
Speaker 3: It is a little disappointing. Suns, Jazz now and the Lakers,

556
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:21,679
Speaker 3: and then the Rockets and Warriors are on the outside

557
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 3: looking in right now. So it's going to be a

558
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:25,800
Speaker 3: rock fight It's going to be tough all the way

559
00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 3: down the stretch because those two teams I mentioned, the

560
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:30,320
Speaker 3: Rockets and Warriors, they're not going anywhere either. They're gonna

561
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:33,040
Speaker 3: fight because they want to make the play in So

562
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,399
Speaker 3: it's going to be a forty game stretch here.

563
00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:39,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, you listed all really strong candidates for disappointing teams.

564
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:42,359
Speaker 1: The Warriors need to be in the mix too. This

565
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:44,320
Speaker 1: is almost just sad how this is going.

566
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 3: Right.

567
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,119
Speaker 1: You already brought up Wiggins, like what the guy forgot

568
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 1: how to play basketball? But just like, yeah, how old

569
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:51,920
Speaker 1: they look at times? There was the whole Draymond Green.

570
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 1: This is just like it's just like a weird possible

571
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:58,439
Speaker 1: ending to really their dynasty run. If this is the

572
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:00,520
Speaker 1: end now, we thought that a couple years ago and

573
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:03,280
Speaker 1: they sort of rebounded and won a championship. I don't

574
00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:05,160
Speaker 1: think that's gonna be the case this year or really

575
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:08,720
Speaker 1: moving forward unless some big, big changes happen because they

576
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 1: just looked their age and Kerr has struggled to find

577
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:14,359
Speaker 1: any sort of rotation that makes sense in terms of

578
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:16,480
Speaker 1: blending of the young guys with the old guys. Can

579
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 1: you even do it? And they just look they just

580
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,399
Speaker 1: look at the end of their end of the rope.

581
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:23,920
Speaker 1: Uh you know, maybe you saw like maybe that's why

582
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:26,320
Speaker 1: Myers got out of there. He's like, this is gonna

583
00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 1: be crumbling here soon. And who will be the next

584
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:29,800
Speaker 1: you know, will it be Kerr or will it be

585
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:31,919
Speaker 1: someone else? But I have them on the list. And

586
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 1: then the Hawks too, I mean just disappointing. Yeah, just

587
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,240
Speaker 1: like I talked myself into the Hawks. I thought Quinn

588
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:40,760
Speaker 1: Snyder having a camp with de Jonte and Trey and

589
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:42,560
Speaker 1: some pieces there and maybe some of those young guys

590
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 1: like luckily Jillen Johnson's looked great and maybe he's a

591
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 1: building block. But they're just so pathetic there.

592
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 3: I thought you said camp, like they went camping, but

593
00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:51,960
Speaker 3: we've been training camp.

594
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, they should probably go camp.

595
00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 3: Yeah.

596
00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 1: Even the Hawks wins on you're disappointed somehow. It's like

597
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,159
Speaker 1: they're up thirty five on the Spurs and give it

598
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:04,760
Speaker 1: all back and then and then hang.

599
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:05,359
Speaker 3: On to win. You know.

600
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:09,240
Speaker 2: I think our buddy Bret Lagree called him feel bad

601
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:12,280
Speaker 2: wins We did it, but didly.

602
00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:13,840
Speaker 1: That's exactly right.

603
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 3: Justin one quick other one. I am a little disappointed

604
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:19,240
Speaker 3: in Zion Williamson. I know, The numbers are good, twenty

605
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,320
Speaker 3: two points per game, but it doesn't look like Zion Wilson,

606
00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:24,399
Speaker 3: who took over games, took over seasons, who looked like

607
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:28,199
Speaker 3: the next one whenever he was in whenever he was healthy,

608
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,320
Speaker 3: I should say, because he was getting injured and that

609
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:33,679
Speaker 3: broke everything down, and he's think, well, this guy is

610
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:38,720
Speaker 3: twenty six sixty percent from the field any time he wants.

611
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 3: But the numbers have dropped, so yeah, he's good, but

612
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:46,639
Speaker 3: he's not like the next Hall of Famer right then

613
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 3: and there. Every possession and basically a guy you've never

614
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,120
Speaker 3: seen before, like we see with Wee Min Yama this year.

615
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,000
Speaker 3: I've never seen that before. Zion was similar in that

616
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:58,280
Speaker 3: I've never seen a six' five, essentially you, know sixty

617
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:01,240
Speaker 3: six guy that could get to the rim any time he.

618
00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 3: Wants so it's a little different going from what he

619
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 3: was to what he. IS i maybe he's saving it

620
00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:10,600
Speaker 3: for the second half, here but The republicans are good

621
00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:11,520
Speaker 3: and he's, healthy which is a good.

622
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:13,399
Speaker 1: Time it's almost better that he doesn't have to be

623
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:17,080
Speaker 1: like Superstars. Ion everybody, else Like ingram and McCollum and

624
00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:20,960
Speaker 1: all the shooters And Trey murphy And hawkins a, Rookie,

625
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,520
Speaker 1: LIKE i, mean it's, working it's but you're, right his

626
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:26,639
Speaker 1: numbers have dipped and he's rarely even talked. ABOUT i

627
00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:29,359
Speaker 1: feel like HIM nba, circles, right he's really had a quiet.

628
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 1: Year let's go to favorite breakout PLAYER. Tk you go,

629
00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:34,720
Speaker 1: First you got, One you got multiple? Names what do you?

630
00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:37,000
Speaker 2: Got i've got some multiple names, Here, LIKE i actually

631
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:41,160
Speaker 2: Think Tyrese halliburton is the breakout player of the. Season

632
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,199
Speaker 2: with the way the nd season tournament, Went he's been

633
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:46,000
Speaker 2: hurt a little bit, now hasn't been on the court

634
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 2: for a while after. Slipping but we have talked a

635
00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:50,800
Speaker 2: lot about The pacers, recently So i'm going. ELSEWHERE I

636
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:53,920
Speaker 2: Pollo boncaro for me is the breakout. Player he's become

637
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,640
Speaker 2: one of my favorite guys to watch from a league past,

638
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:59,400
Speaker 2: perspective and The magic are not the most watchable. Team

639
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:03,000
Speaker 2: it's mostly they're gone three and four Without Franz. Wagner not,

640
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,800
Speaker 2: great be helpful to get him. Back But polo in

641
00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:07,680
Speaker 2: his second year, here has gone from twenty to twenty

642
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 2: three points three and a half assists to five. Assists

643
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:13,160
Speaker 2: he raised his shooting percentage from the field he raised

644
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:16,359
Speaker 2: his shooting percentage from. Three his usage is a little

645
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,239
Speaker 2: bit up, here and he's maintaining his. EFFICIENCY a lot

646
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:21,679
Speaker 2: of guys hit a slump in their second, season and

647
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:24,640
Speaker 2: that has not been the case For. Polo even though

648
00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,640
Speaker 2: The magic do not have a perfect offensive team built around.

649
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 2: Him he gives enough defensively that they can have a

650
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 2: really good. Defense but then he's got a lot on

651
00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:33,280
Speaker 2: his shoulders on the offensive, end AND i really think

652
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:35,719
Speaker 2: he's carrying the load and just looking LIKE i, mean

653
00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:37,480
Speaker 2: the guy's the number one, pick he won The rookie

654
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:39,720
Speaker 2: of The. Year obviously he's a Future All, star BUT

655
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,600
Speaker 2: i think he could get to like top ten status

656
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:43,920
Speaker 2: in the league the way he gets to the rim

657
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,480
Speaker 2: when he actually puts his head down and has a

658
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:48,320
Speaker 2: tiny modicum of space.

659
00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:51,880
Speaker 3: There, sure who are you going? With BECAUSE i literally

660
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:55,080
Speaker 3: will mention every single, guy so feel free to grab.

661
00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 1: SOME i, Mean tray's, Right we've talked about him a

662
00:28:57,160 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 1: lot this. Season haliburton is the pick in turning The

663
00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 1: pacers in basically to a modern day version of like

664
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 1: the seven seconds or less sort of suns where he

665
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:09,800
Speaker 1: is like That nash like. Guy it sucks he's not

666
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 1: playing right, now hopefully back for The All Star. Game

667
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 1: but league leading twelve and a half assists still gets

668
00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 1: his twenty four points per game when you round up

669
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:20,120
Speaker 1: fifty from the field forty from three to eighty seven

670
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:23,760
Speaker 1: from the, line so great. Efficiency and, yeah he made

671
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:26,560
Speaker 1: THE Nba cup as. WELL i mean he. Did he

672
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:28,600
Speaker 1: was like that was the that was the. STORY i

673
00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:31,000
Speaker 1: know The lakers go on to win, it but we

674
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 1: had him averaging like twenty seven and thirteen in the. Tournament.

675
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:38,960
Speaker 1: Halliburton he's doing The dame time celebration Versus. Dame and

676
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:41,160
Speaker 1: he's just getting a team in The Indiana, pacers who

677
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:44,480
Speaker 1: don't have a lot of nationally televised. Games, yea, yeah you,

678
00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 1: know more of those, games more eyeballs on. Him who

679
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,840
Speaker 1: is this? Guy? Now he's the leading vote getter for

680
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,400
Speaker 1: the guards in the in The Eastern. Conference that's an

681
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:55,520
Speaker 1: incredible you, know glow. Up So i'll go with. Him

682
00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:57,320
Speaker 1: and he's playing so well that their team now is, like,

683
00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 1: well we got to go trade For Pascal. Siakam, jesus

684
00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:01,320
Speaker 1: we got something. Special so they make that move and

685
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:03,280
Speaker 1: they have a really good. Record The pacers do against

686
00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:05,720
Speaker 1: the elite teams in The. East when you're looking At, Boston,

687
00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:09,320
Speaker 1: milwaukee you, Know, Philly, Cleveland, Miami New. York they have

688
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:12,000
Speaker 1: a good record against those, teams so they're gonna be

689
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:15,640
Speaker 1: a tough. Out i'll pick another, name, Though Terres. Maxie, oh,

690
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:19,080
Speaker 1: yeah has sort of leveled up as a player in this.

691
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:21,120
Speaker 1: LEAGUE i think there was a lot of expectations he

692
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:24,200
Speaker 1: might because he played really well in postseason games for The,

693
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:27,480
Speaker 1: sixers but averaging twenty six, points four, boards seven, assists

694
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,960
Speaker 1: and he's just like become the second star Alongside embiid

695
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:34,560
Speaker 1: and many, thought oh and they traded, hard AND i

696
00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 1: know he had his, flaws but they trade harded they

697
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:39,880
Speaker 1: don't get a star, back and everyone's, LIKE i don't

698
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:42,520
Speaker 1: know about, THIS i don't know About philly's title. Chances,

699
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,160
Speaker 1: WELL maxi like obviously took over and stepped into That

700
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:48,240
Speaker 1: harden role and does it a little differently and it's.

701
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:51,320
Speaker 1: Working so just him going to what should be an

702
00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 1: all star level here early in his. Career those numbers are.

703
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:56,680
Speaker 1: Amazing he takes over games at times and it's just

704
00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,400
Speaker 1: a great pairing with him And. Embiid so that's my

705
00:30:59,480 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 1: other pick for.

706
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:04,680
Speaker 3: Breakout everybody named tyresee is awesome this season to. ABSOLUTELY

707
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:07,400
Speaker 3: i would say With, maxi you could look at more

708
00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:09,320
Speaker 3: and say you should have traded hard and quicker and

709
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 3: just give Him maxie the keys because he's just that

710
00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:16,360
Speaker 3: damn good and it's it's pleasing to watch he Unlike.

711
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:18,239
Speaker 3: Harden you, know he leads the league in minutes per.

712
00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 3: Played he is just tough every single. Possession so he's just.

713
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:24,520
Speaker 3: Awesome he's just so fun to watch because he's just

714
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:26,640
Speaker 3: so damn fast and he's an.

715
00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 1: Executor and that trade between The wraps And knicks where everybody's, like,

716
00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:31,480

00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:36,239
Speaker 1: FIT i mean this one is looking like a win

719
00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:38,480
Speaker 1: win trade right now, too With harden going to The. Clippers,

720
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:41,280
Speaker 1: yeah and then the piece is coming back like But

721
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 1: tombs played well for, them you know That morris at

722
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:45,800
Speaker 1: times even they have picks and then they get to

723
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,720
Speaker 1: really lean Into maxie as the lead ball. Handler so

724
00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:50,520
Speaker 1: that's sort of a right, now it's a win win as,

725
00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:51,840
Speaker 1: well which is a little.

726
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:54,040
Speaker 3: Wild, yeah they went From harden being THE leadu guard

727
00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:56,560
Speaker 3: to we watching him with, uh we're watching with The

728
00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:58,960
Speaker 3: clippers where he's not the lead guard and that's, good

729
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:02,000
Speaker 3: works a lot, better And max he has taken. OVER

730
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:05,080
Speaker 3: i will Mention Jalen brunson as, well BECAUSE i just

731
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,600
Speaker 3: love watching the dude At you, know he's tiny for

732
00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:09,440
Speaker 3: his size at six poet sixty, two but he's just so.

733
00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:12,400
Speaker 3: POWERFUL i love watching how he's able to just create

734
00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:16,880
Speaker 3: space with his. Shoulders when he signed two seasons ago From,

735
00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:20,440
Speaker 3: dallas people, wondered, oh was he? OVERPAID i don't know this.

736
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:23,040
Speaker 3: GUY i think it was just sort of he was

737
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:25,480
Speaker 3: kind of under the radar Because Jaalen brunson does his,

738
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:28,120
Speaker 3: thing but he was never a, superstar even though he

739
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:30,360
Speaker 3: was awesome Without Luka dantic in that playoffs where he's

740
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:34,120
Speaker 3: dropping forty against The Utah jazz and now at twenty

741
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:36,240
Speaker 3: six per game and shooting forty two percent from. Three

742
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 3: he's just so efficient and so, physical and people were

743
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 3: worried about The. Knicks knicks fans were worried as he

744
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,120
Speaker 3: went out injured for the last couple games and they

745
00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:46,320
Speaker 3: had a sixteen point fourth quarter against The Magic date

746
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:48,800
Speaker 3: and look. Good oh, yeah he comes back and has

747
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:51,880
Speaker 3: an incredible game last night against The wizards with twenty

748
00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:55,800
Speaker 3: and the fourth or he was just awesome and uh

749
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:58,280
Speaker 3: he even talked To Jordan poole after the. Game he

750
00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:02,520
Speaker 3: was Given Jordan poole a big slap in the. Back, hey, Hey, Jordan, Jordan, Jordan.

751
00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:05,320
Speaker 3: Jordan pool is looking. Elsewhere so he was, busy but

752
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 3: he's it's, like come, over come over, here and he,

753
00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:10,640
Speaker 3: said keep, going keep, Going. Jordan he's in his he's

754
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,320
Speaker 3: in he's in his. Corner for some for some, REASON

755
00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:16,440
Speaker 3: i don't know Why Jordan poole has been bad this.

756
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:19,000
Speaker 3: SEASON i, know WHEN i Said Andrew wiggins is the

757
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,840
Speaker 3: worst contract in THE, nba people said, That, no It's Jordan. Poole.

758
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:23,960
Speaker 1: No people Said Ben simmons, Too.

759
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 3: Ben, Simmons, Yeah Ben simmons is the least off the

760
00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:29,440
Speaker 3: books after next. Season both these, Guys pool And wiggins

761
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:33,360
Speaker 3: signed four year. Deals, yeah similar. MONEY i still think It's, wiggins.

762
00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:35,680
Speaker 3: UNFORTUNATELY i don't know if it's personal or what's going,

763
00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:38,640
Speaker 3: on but he's way older Than. Pool at Least pool's

764
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:43,200
Speaker 3: playing minutes and he's, trying and he doesn't look as.

765
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:45,640
Speaker 3: Bad we Know Andrew wiggins is way. Better he's having

766
00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:49,000
Speaker 3: his worst season since his rookie season by, far by,

767
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:51,280
Speaker 3: far he is literally having the worst season of his.

768
00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 3: Career he's only twenty, eight but something something strange going.

769
00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:57,840
Speaker 3: On at Least pool might get. Better Jaylen brownson thinks,

770
00:33:57,840 --> 00:33:59,480
Speaker 3: so so everybody else should.

771
00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:01,680
Speaker 1: To one else breakout performances.

772
00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:03,600
Speaker 3: Players, NO i got all The, YEAH i got the.

773
00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:06,960
Speaker 3: Tyreses i'm, Done, okay try to make sure there wasn't

774
00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:07,240
Speaker 3: a third.

775
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:12,400
Speaker 2: Tyree Tyrese martin played in twenty twenty. Three, MARTIN i

776
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:14,160
Speaker 2: don't know. Him he might have been A.

777
00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:14,480
Speaker 3: HAWK i.

778
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,320
Speaker 1: DIDN'T i didn't go deep. Enough it was just a baby,

779
00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:18,240
Speaker 1: Boy just a baby.

780
00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:19,520
Speaker 2: Boy all.

781
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:23,120
Speaker 1: Right final, question most intriguing second half storyline you could

782
00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:23,520
Speaker 1: have started.

783
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:26,080
Speaker 3: Here i've talked about The cavs When i'm gonna do

784
00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:28,920
Speaker 3: it one more. Time they're eleven and three Since Darius

785
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:31,799
Speaker 3: garland went down and Then moble went, down two of

786
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,239
Speaker 3: their four players. Out, yeah they. Are they went from

787
00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:37,439
Speaker 3: ninth in The eastern conferenceadings to. Fourth that's where they sit,

788
00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:40,560
Speaker 3: now and they should be stronger when those other two come.

789
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 3: Back BUT i am curious what their offense is going

790
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,319
Speaker 3: to look like Because Donovan mitchell literally has put everything

791
00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:48,320
Speaker 3: on his, shoulders and then the subs in Like Dean,

792
00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:53,600
Speaker 3: wade More Max, struce more Jars Ni. Yang they're all

793
00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:57,279
Speaker 3: on the perimeter making things. Happen share, it shoot. It

794
00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 3: that's what should be. Happening that's WHAT. Jb bickerstaff. Wants

795
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:03,359
Speaker 3: When garland gets back in, there his jaw gets all.

796
00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:06,560
Speaker 3: Better he has had the wiring removed from his, jaw

797
00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:09,680
Speaker 3: so he must feel. Better but he lost a lot

798
00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:12,880
Speaker 3: of weight because he's on a liquid. Diet that. Sucks

799
00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:16,000
Speaker 3: BUT i also just wonder on the, court Is garland

800
00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:18,200
Speaker 3: going to be handling the ball a? Lot Is mobily

801
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,600
Speaker 3: going to be handling the ball a? Lot BECAUSE i

802
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 3: would just wonder how how the offense is going to fit,

803
00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:24,520
Speaker 3: together and will there still be three point shooters out,

804
00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:27,120
Speaker 3: there because that's what they're doing With. Mitchell it's all Through.

805
00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:29,520
Speaker 3: Mitchell but Now garland's going to handle. It mobile will

806
00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:31,600
Speaker 3: be back who doesn't shoot, threes so it will be.

807
00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:35,040
Speaker 3: Different but this should look like the the you, know

808
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,600
Speaker 3: The rubio that everybody calves from two years ago when

809
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:40,400
Speaker 3: they were, awesome not The calves that went into the

810
00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:43,799
Speaker 3: playoffs and look stinky against The knicks where they didn't

811
00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:45,840
Speaker 3: have an. Offense this is maybe a blessing in disguise

812
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:47,400
Speaker 3: where they just have to move the ball because the

813
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:49,800
Speaker 3: knicks and tips just shut it. Down they just literally

814
00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:51,840
Speaker 3: just get out there against the guards they can't. Pass

815
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:54,000
Speaker 3: so that changed. Everything but this team looks.

816
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 1: Good they've had a really soft part of their schedule

817
00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:58,840
Speaker 1: that they're taking advantage of the calves as. Well like

818
00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:00,919
Speaker 1: when you said that eleven and three run despite missing

819
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:02,640
Speaker 1: some of their, Guys, like there's not a lot of

820
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:04,799
Speaker 1: good teams they've beaten in all of, seats so they,

821
00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:06,359
Speaker 1: went you, know they had to jump on a plane

822
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:08,520
Speaker 1: and go play In, Paris, france where they got the.

823
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:10,320
Speaker 1: Victory but it's, like you, know it's like wins against

824
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:12,520
Speaker 1: The wizards and The spurs and The, nets and, like you,

825
00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:14,400
Speaker 1: Know bulls have played a lot. Better so those they

826
00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:16,960
Speaker 1: got two against, them they crushed The bucks the other.

827
00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:20,560
Speaker 1: Night there was no, ya. Honess so, look you got

828
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:22,600
Speaker 1: to you gotta win these games to obviously climb the

829
00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:24,799
Speaker 1: rankings than they. Have and it is amazing without those

830
00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:27,319
Speaker 1: two sort of star guys that they're doing this and

831
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:30,640
Speaker 1: looking you, know the offense is elite in these games

832
00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:32,440
Speaker 1: against these crap teams like they're putting up some big,

833
00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:34,160
Speaker 1: numbers you, know be at one hundred and thirty five

834
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:36,040
Speaker 1: against The, bucks one hundred and forty there against The.

835
00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:39,280
Speaker 1: Tzards one's thirty five against The rockets in an overtime.

836
00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:43,000
Speaker 1: Victory so, yeah they're. Surprising they're chucking threes like. Crazy,

837
00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 1: yeah they talked fifty seven against The.

838
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:48,120
Speaker 2: Bulls and that's gonna be the interesting thing When mobley

839
00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:49,680
Speaker 2: comes back And garland comes.

840
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:50,600
Speaker 1: Back garland will shoot.

841
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:52,799
Speaker 2: Threes he pounds the ball a little, BIT i, think

842
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:54,799
Speaker 2: so it's gonna have to be on him to just

843
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:57,640
Speaker 2: be a quick, shoot quick release kind of. Guy and

844
00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:00,000
Speaker 2: then how do they fit In mobley playing two bags

845
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:00,919
Speaker 2: at the same.

846
00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:02,080
Speaker 4: TIME i don't.

847
00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:05,000
Speaker 2: KNOW i don't, know because having three, shooters one offensive

848
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:07,960
Speaker 2: rebounder And Donovan mitchell out there has been. Working that

849
00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:09,879
Speaker 2: was kind of what The calves tried to do over

850
00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:12,359
Speaker 2: the off. Season they're, like we need more. Shooting now

851
00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:14,359
Speaker 2: they've got as much shooting as they can possibly put

852
00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:16,920
Speaker 2: on the floor and it's. Working so it's gonna be

853
00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:18,920
Speaker 2: On garland And mobile to figure out how to fit

854
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:21,879
Speaker 2: in once they get. Back AND i really hope things

855
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:23,719
Speaker 2: are okay With garland when he gets back BECAUSE i

856
00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:25,920
Speaker 2: heard if you drink an insure for breakfast and an

857
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:29,880
Speaker 2: insure for, dessert that alone can drive a sane Man bizert.

858
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:37,440
Speaker 3: Dessert that's a Nice kanye right through the.

859
00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:41,920
Speaker 1: Liary what do you have for most intriguing second half?

860
00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:42,919
Speaker 1: Storyline you guys touched?

861
00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:45,560
Speaker 2: On it is a jover for The. Warriors that's What

862
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:50,040
Speaker 2: i'm watching here because the young guys are playing, Okay

863
00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:53,600
Speaker 2: Like kaminga's been. Okay moody has not been able to

864
00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:56,400
Speaker 2: always establish himself in the, rotation BUT i feel like

865
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,120
Speaker 2: every time he plays he looks. Solid pajemski seems like

866
00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 2: a fine, Trace Jackson davis seems like a fine But

867
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:07,120
Speaker 2: wiggins obviously is not playing well this. Season Uh draymond

868
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:08,680
Speaker 2: has been out of the lineup quite a. Bit Klay

869
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:10,800
Speaker 2: thompson has turned the corner a little. Bit he's shooting

870
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:13,480
Speaker 2: the ball way, better but he's given it back a

871
00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:16,880
Speaker 2: little bit, defensively to the point where you look at

872
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:19,960
Speaker 2: that twenty twenty two title and you're, like was that a?

873
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:20,320
Speaker 1: Fluke?

874
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:26,160
Speaker 2: Righty it's? Wild Best wiggins we've ever. Seen, yeah Best

875
00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:30,319
Speaker 2: pool we've ever. Seen And curry went to an absolute stratosphere.

876
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:32,799
Speaker 2: LEVEL i, mean like he played his best finals that

877
00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:35,160
Speaker 2: we've ever seen him. Play he was on, fire taken over.

878
00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:39,399
Speaker 2: There but they've had basically one bad season When Steph

879
00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:42,400
Speaker 2: curry broke his, hand and then one mid season during

880
00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:45,200
Speaker 2: their run from twenty thirteen to twenty twenty. Three but

881
00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:48,320
Speaker 2: right now thirteenth on offense and twenty fifth on. DEFENSE

882
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:50,840
Speaker 2: i don't know how they get their defense. Back, Obviously

883
00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:53,040
Speaker 2: draymond has missed a lot of, time and he, helps

884
00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:54,160
Speaker 2: But looney.

885
00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:54,399
Speaker 1: Looks a lot.

886
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:57,279
Speaker 2: Slower he's not giving quite the resistance that he used.

887
00:38:57,280 --> 00:38:59,279
Speaker 2: To he's not as good of a rebounder as he,

888
00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:02,279
Speaker 2: was And draymond just can't make up for everybody. Else

889
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:06,080
Speaker 2: If kminga is just a little flighty, Defensively wiggins is

890
00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:08,719
Speaker 2: just not given the effort every. Time So wiggins was

891
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:12,520
Speaker 2: such a big part of their championship run that if

892
00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:15,120
Speaker 2: he's not playing at that, level The warriors just look

893
00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:17,880
Speaker 2: kind of beat right. Now and like you're, saying just

894
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:19,880
Speaker 2: things keep happening with this team to where you're, like

895
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:21,680
Speaker 2: Is Steve kerr gonna be the next guy to? Leave

896
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:24,120
Speaker 2: Bob myers just left his curR. NEXT i don't know

897
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:26,680
Speaker 2: they've had the hardest schedule in the league up to this.

898
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,480
Speaker 2: Point according To Basketball. Reference it gets a little easier

899
00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:31,640
Speaker 2: in the second, half but it's gonna have to be

900
00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:34,680
Speaker 2: their core group that improves and gets better going.

901
00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:38,280
Speaker 3: Forward that's. Fun it's a fun idea looking At pool

902
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:41,200
Speaker 3: And wiggins and wondering that it all just come together

903
00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:43,560
Speaker 3: that one moment for those two, guys because they haven't

904
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:47,040
Speaker 3: been able to turn it. On BUT i Think pool

905
00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:48,960
Speaker 3: can get. THERE i Think pool can get a lot.

906
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:52,680
Speaker 3: Better bring Back. Pool why the? Heck that would be.

907
00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:55,759
Speaker 2: The biggest chakra at trade Deadline wiggins For. Pool it

908
00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:58,360
Speaker 2: doesn't work in the trade, machine, probably.

909
00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:00,960
Speaker 3: But it is interesting in The Western conference to look

910
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:03,719
Speaker 3: at and ponder who the heck is going to miss the?

911
00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:08,800
Speaker 3: Playoffs LIKE i mentioned those teams, okay bottom Four, Kings, Sons, Jazz,

912
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:13,279
Speaker 3: lakers and The, Rockets. Warriors outside The, Suns lakers Or,

913
00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:16,239
Speaker 3: warriors those are the teams With hall Of famers on

914
00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:19,600
Speaker 3: them that should be making the, playoffs but one of

915
00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:20,680
Speaker 3: them could easily miss the.

916
00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:23,560
Speaker 1: Posts, well that goes nicely into my most intriguing second half.

917
00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:26,720
Speaker 1: STORYLINE i wrote down what surprise team makes a conference finals,

918
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,239
Speaker 1: run because if you look back over the last couple of,

919
00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:31,359
Speaker 1: years there's always like one we weren't really ready for

920
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:33,640
Speaker 1: to go to a conference, finals at least last. Year

921
00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:36,800
Speaker 1: last year we had two playing teams make The final

922
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,719
Speaker 1: four in The lakers and The. Heat heat obviously going

923
00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:41,719
Speaker 1: to the. Finals year before, THAT i would say the

924
00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:45,520
Speaker 1: surprise team was probably the fifty three Win mavericks knocking

925
00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:49,520

969
00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:55,920

970
00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:58,680
Speaker 2: kind of set for at least our top five in fan.

971
00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:01,480
Speaker 2: Voting though we'll see If shay can finally close the.

972
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:03,879
Speaker 1: Gap we'll, see, yeah close the. Gap and then let's

973
00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:05,960
Speaker 1: not forget you, know twenty five percent from the player,

974
00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:08,080
Speaker 1: vote twenty five percent from the. Media and that's the

975
00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:12,239
Speaker 1: question here is is it gonna be Alongside luca as

976
00:43:12,239 --> 00:43:14,000
Speaker 1: a starter in The west at the gard? Position is

977
00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:17,600
Speaker 1: it gonna Be steph or is it gonna Be Shake Guildos,

978
00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:19,960
Speaker 1: alexander depending on how the rest of that vote, Goes

979
00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:23,880
Speaker 1: assuming That shae can't catch Here stephan the fan, Vote

980
00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:25,560
Speaker 1: what do you think who'd you be voting?

981
00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:29,319
Speaker 3: FOR i Think steph will get. IT i do think he.

982
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:32,000
Speaker 3: Will just when it comes down to the, votes.

983
00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 1: When you get into the weighted, yeah it all you.

984
00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:40,640
Speaker 3: Weigh but, uh Obviously shay is. Deserving there's no doubt he's. Deserving,

985
00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:43,480
Speaker 3: yeah BUT i just don't know if maybe players will

986
00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:44,560
Speaker 3: maybe players.

987
00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:48,000
Speaker 1: Will, well our guy goes Face. Ziller he broke it all,

988
00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:50,920
Speaker 1: down this idea of, like, yeah Can shay actually start

989
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:54,880
Speaker 1: Alongside luca? Again Because, luca most of us, think is

990
00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:56,759
Speaker 1: gonna you, know he'll probably get the player, vote he's

991
00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:58,279
Speaker 1: gonna get a media, vote he's gonna have enough he's

992
00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:00,400
Speaker 1: starting because he's number one there in the fan vote as.

993
00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:04,080
Speaker 1: Well but you know this idea where we could have

994
00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:06,840
Speaker 1: a tie when you look at the weighted versions of

995
00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:10,640
Speaker 1: it all Between shay And, curry and what happens in

996
00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:13,840
Speaker 1: a Tie we go to the fan, Vote So curry

997
00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:18,399
Speaker 1: deary then would. Start but you, Know shay getting number

998
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:21,160
Speaker 1: one in either the media or the player, vote which is,

999
00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:24,319
Speaker 1: possible or someone else Passing steph for number three in

1000
00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:28,160
Speaker 1: either the player or the media vote could obviously GET

1001
00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:31,799
Speaker 1: sga ahead of, him which is it's. Possible and Then

1002
00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:34,680
Speaker 1: zilla points, out Like Anthony, edwards where does he fit

1003
00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:36,800
Speaker 1: into this conversation with some of the players in media

1004
00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:42,080
Speaker 1: and Even Kyrie, irving who players absolutely, adore you, know

1005
00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:45,080
Speaker 1: could he sneak up even? Higher so we'll see you.

1006
00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:48,439
Speaker 1: HERE i do think in the, END i actually THINK

1007
00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:51,480
Speaker 1: sga is going to vote a little bit better and

1008
00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:54,120
Speaker 1: actually get the starting. NOD i think the media might have,

1009
00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:58,040
Speaker 1: Him they might have him one Over, luca which would

1010
00:44:58,040 --> 00:44:58,319
Speaker 1: help his.

1011
00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:03,440
Speaker 2: Case. YEAH i, mean there's no doubt That shaye deserves

1012
00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:05,439
Speaker 2: to start for the way he's, played But Steph curry

1013
00:45:05,480 --> 00:45:05,560
Speaker 2: is a.

1014
00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:08,400
Speaker 3: Legend, yeah, yeah we'll. See and that's what's happening with

1015
00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:11,040
Speaker 3: the forward spots in The west as. Well lebron is number.

1016
00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:15,160
Speaker 3: One fans get to see who they. Want but that's

1017
00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:17,200
Speaker 3: obviously changed the last few years because they almost Got

1018
00:45:17,280 --> 00:45:21,440
Speaker 3: Zaza pachulia in the, game and everybody started in the

1019
00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:24,640
Speaker 3: in THE nba front office, wondering we got we gotta change,

1020
00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:26,640
Speaker 3: this we gotta change, This so they changed it to fifty.

1021
00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:28,959
Speaker 3: Percent only for the fan. Fans you only get fifty,

1022
00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:31,560
Speaker 3: percent all, right you want them but you only get fifty,

1023
00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:34,200
Speaker 3: percent and so that's Why lebron at, first An ad

1024
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:37,239
Speaker 3: at fourth way Over. Kawhi's it's not.

1025
00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:38,200
Speaker 4: Right it's all.

1026
00:45:38,239 --> 00:45:40,439
Speaker 3: Right kawhi should have more votes than the fifth spot

1027
00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:44,080
Speaker 3: behind those. Two his record is way better than The lakers,

1028
00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:49,359
Speaker 3: Record so why are two guys going to potentially get? More,

1029
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:53,240
Speaker 3: anyways the coaches will Get kawhi in. There who's averaging

1030
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:55,600
Speaker 3: twenty four points fifty two from the, field forty four from.

1031
00:45:55,640 --> 00:46:00,120
Speaker 3: Three the guy's on. Fire BUT i guess, Fans, MATT.

1032
00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:03,040
Speaker 1: I think when you when we do weigh the player

1033
00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:04,719
Speaker 1: in media vote for the front court guys in The,

1034
00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:08,080
Speaker 1: WEST i think those will be ultimately the three Guys, Jokic,

1035
00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:11,720
Speaker 1: lebron And, durant though those will be our. STARTERS i should,

1036
00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:13,840
Speaker 1: say we'll find out next. Week to The, east the,

1037

00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:28,360
Speaker 1: butler catching. Them and the guards Is Tyres, helliburton as

1051
00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:06,799
Speaker 3: don't get four iterations of these. VOTES i think we

1052

Speaker 1: Young second is.

1064
00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:37,160
Speaker 3: Insane tray should be holding Off. Damian Damian lillard has

1065
00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:38,880
Speaker 3: not had an incredible. Season, NO i.

1066
00:47:38,880 --> 00:47:41,080
Speaker 1: WOULDN'T i didn't Say Damian. LILLARD i think there's other

1067
00:47:41,080 --> 00:47:46,280
Speaker 1: guys that are probably more worthy of, Starting maxy Or Bless, Mitchell,

1068
00:47:46,560 --> 00:47:49,240
Speaker 1: Donovan mitchell. Guy, yeah all three of those guys should

1069
00:47:49,239 --> 00:47:50,640
Speaker 1: be over the two guys ahead of, them And Trey

1070
00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:52,160
Speaker 1: young And Damian lillard in.

1071
00:47:52,120 --> 00:47:55,839

1072
00:47:55,880 --> 00:48:00,080
Speaker 3: got a ship. Record he does have the old ship, Record.

1073
00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:04,279
Speaker 1: So you would Pick Donovan. Mitchell IF i asked You Trey,

1074
00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:08,080
Speaker 1: Young Damian lillard or other to start Alongside Tyre's, Heliverton

1075
00:48:08,080 --> 00:48:08,960
Speaker 1: you're Picking. Mitchell.

1076
00:48:09,200 --> 00:48:12,760
Speaker 2: Yeah he's been carrying the team With garland And mobiley.

1077
00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:16,720
Speaker 2: Out he scores more Than trey And Damian, lillard better,

1078
00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:20,759
Speaker 2: Rebounder tray's leading in, assists better three point shooter Or

1079
00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:22,919
Speaker 2: TREY i guess is leading three point shooting right. Now

1080
00:48:23,320 --> 00:48:25,960
Speaker 2: mitchell's a better defender and he leads in like every advanced.

1081
00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:29,120
Speaker 2: CATEGORY i think he's really put on a starting push,

1082
00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:31,640
Speaker 2: here But i'd be curious to see how often like

1083
00:48:31,680 --> 00:48:35,319
Speaker 2: the votes actually change after the second. Returns doesn't feel

1084
00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:38,000
Speaker 2: like it feels like you're pretty much locked, In SO

1085
00:48:38,200 --> 00:48:40,920
Speaker 2: i don't Think mitchell will probably get, there though maybe

1086
00:48:41,719 --> 00:48:44,600
Speaker 2: maybe like the coach votes and stuff factors, in BECAUSE

1087
00:48:44,640 --> 00:48:46,920
Speaker 2: i can't Imagine Trey young gets a lot of coach

1088
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:49,440
Speaker 2: votes or really media. VOTES i Think lillard And mitchell

1089
00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:53,160
Speaker 2: would probably take him in both of those, Categories so

1090
00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:56,640
Speaker 2: we shall. See the waiting will be interesting for second

1091
00:48:56,640 --> 00:48:57,600
Speaker 2: guard in THESE i don't think.

1092
00:48:57,640 --> 00:49:00,560
Speaker 1: So, yeah the player, vote they don't use vote For

1093
00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:02,480
Speaker 1: Trey young from WHAT i can remember as, WELL i

1094
00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:03,640
Speaker 1: think he was quite low on that.

1095
00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:06,680
Speaker 3: Last last year was. Bad, yeah and as far as

1096
00:49:06,960 --> 00:49:11,040
Speaker 3: the fans voting, Go trey did Jump damien from the

1097
00:49:11,080 --> 00:49:14,480
Speaker 3: first to second, return right, Right so he's doing all.

1098
00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:17,319
Speaker 3: Right you, know if he Had Jared allen sitting beside

1099
00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:19,800
Speaker 3: him playing, center the team would be way better defensively

1100
00:49:19,840 --> 00:49:23,839
Speaker 3: because their offense is, very very. Good but, Anyway i'm

1101
00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:25,719
Speaker 3: just gonna go to bat For Trey young there for a.

1102
00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:27,880
Speaker 3: Sec he's. Good guards are. Good they're all going to

1103
00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:28,279
Speaker 3: get a.

1104
00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:31,239
Speaker 1: Lot of good, guards no. Doubt all, right let's pivot to.

1105
00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:35,080
Speaker 1: This Pascal siakam obviously traded this week to The. Pacers we, did,

1106
00:49:35,120 --> 00:49:38,560
Speaker 1: LIKE i don't, know it felt like three separate podcasts about,

1107
00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:42,040
Speaker 1: it debating how it Changes, indies chances to compete in The,

1108

00:50:19,920 --> 00:50:23,719
Speaker 1: today but shout out To. Schumann first stat Regarding, siakam

1121
00:50:24,160 --> 00:50:28,600
Speaker 1: twenty four point eight percent usage rate this. Year that's

1122
00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:32,120
Speaker 1: his lowest of the last five. YEARS i just think

1123
00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:35,279
Speaker 1: that's fascinating when you put it into. Perspective we're talking

1124
00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:38,880
Speaker 1: guys Like Scoot, henderson Calling, Sexton Terry. Rozier they have

1125
00:50:39,239 --> 00:50:43,040
Speaker 1: higher usage rate percentages Than siakam this. Year, now, again

1126
00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:45,239
Speaker 1: the ball was handed over To barnes a lot. More

1127
00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:48,719
Speaker 1: he's more of like at times like a. Facilitator AND

1128
00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:52,080
Speaker 1: i had forgotten just how much of a Workhorse siakam

1129
00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:55,439
Speaker 1: was there in the years Following kawhi leaving and when

1130
00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:58,560
Speaker 1: he was the. Guy because it's down to a to

1131
00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:01,399
Speaker 1: a low mark from the last five, years and that's

1132
00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:05,080
Speaker 1: probably a good. Thing playing Alongside helliburton and in the pacer.

1133
00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:07,160
Speaker 1: SYSTEM i think that's not going to be an issue at.

1134
00:51:07,160 --> 00:51:08,879
Speaker 1: All it's not going to be this thing like he's,

1135
00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:11,279
Speaker 1: Like i'm not getting my touches or my, touches it's

1136
00:51:11,280 --> 00:51:13,000
Speaker 1: not coming through. Me it won't be a problem at.

1137
00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:15,120
Speaker 1: ALL i don't. Believe, so uh just shock me a

1138
00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:19,719
Speaker 1: little bit that it's that, low, Right, yeah they're moving.

1139
00:51:19,719 --> 00:51:22,160
Speaker 3: On they're moving. On this is definitely the year For

1140
00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:26,040
Speaker 3: barts and they're obviously pushing and that is part of the.

1141
00:51:26,040 --> 00:51:29,040
Speaker 3: Reason i'm Sure, pasky even though he was offered an,

1142
00:51:29,080 --> 00:51:34,000
Speaker 3: extension said, nah that ain't, enough and probably the usage

1143
00:51:34,040 --> 00:51:38,640
Speaker 3: rate is As schumann, noted ain't. Enough thanks, shoe.

1144
00:51:38,600 --> 00:51:40,759
Speaker 1: Well the next number hold. ON i actually think it's

1145
00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:41,840
Speaker 1: good that his usage rate is.

1146
00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:43,719
Speaker 2: Lower AND i remember seeing If i'm the If i'm The,

1147
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:45,719
Speaker 2: PACERS i want to keep it at about twenty. Five

1148
00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:48,239
Speaker 2: he's a guy that scores very well without having to

1149
00:51:48,280 --> 00:51:50,759
Speaker 2: monopolize the. Ball, yep you could run into problems With

1150
00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:54,080
Speaker 2: toronto him getting into His iso bag and just taking up.

1151
00:51:54,080 --> 00:51:57,880
Speaker 2: Possessions but he's got the best truer shooting percentage of

1152
00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:01,520
Speaker 2: his career since he became An All, star basically with

1153
00:52:01,640 --> 00:52:02,359
Speaker 2: the lowest usage.

1154
00:52:02,440 --> 00:52:03,359
Speaker 1: Rate it all adds.

1155
00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:05,480
Speaker 2: Up he's taking, better good shots and he's going to

1156
00:52:05,560 --> 00:52:06,759
Speaker 2: get a steady diet of.

1157
00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:09,640
Speaker 1: Them, indiana great. Tease for the fourth stat there tk

1158
00:52:10,160 --> 00:52:13,520
Speaker 1: sixty percent true shooting. Percentage he's got lower, usage higher.

1159
00:52:13,520 --> 00:52:17,399
Speaker 1: Efficiency siakam's true shooting percentage of sixty percent highest mark

1160
00:52:17,400 --> 00:52:21,440
Speaker 1: over the last five. Seasons he's shooting nearly well fifty

1161
00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:23,239
Speaker 1: eight and a half percent let's call it that on

1162
00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:26,680
Speaker 1: two point, shots and that is up well up to

1163
00:52:26,760 --> 00:52:29,120
Speaker 1: what he had done over the previous four seasons where

1164
00:52:29,160 --> 00:52:31,799
Speaker 1: it was more around fifty one. Percent so he is

1165
00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:35,799
Speaker 1: playing really well and shooting really efficiently, efficiently excuse, me

1166
00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:38,439
Speaker 1: despite the usage percentage going, Down and AGAIN i think

1167
00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:41,480
Speaker 1: that's just such a great sign for The. Pacers sixty,

1168
00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:43,719
Speaker 1: percent that's no joke, there that's a really good true

1169
00:52:43,719 --> 00:52:46,799
Speaker 1: shooting percentage next, one number three on the list two

1170
00:52:46,880 --> 00:52:51,120
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty three total, isolations shoo getting into the second.

1171
00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:55,400
Speaker 1: Spectrum tracking there he. Ranks siakam does fifteenth in the

1172
00:52:55,480 --> 00:52:59,600
Speaker 1: league with two hundred and fifty three total isolations this,

1173
00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:04,400
Speaker 1: season though his isolations per one hundred possessions they're quite

1174
00:53:04,480 --> 00:53:06,759
Speaker 1: down compared to last season and then career high from

1175
00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:10,440
Speaker 1: a couple of years. Ago but The raptors they score

1176
00:53:10,960 --> 00:53:14,319
Speaker 1: in his isolations or did he was like actually the

1177
00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:17,520
Speaker 1: tenth ranked player among fifty nine guys with at least

1178
00:53:17,560 --> 00:53:22,120
Speaker 1: one hundred such. Isolations so IT'S i, thought that's interesting

1179
00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:24,480
Speaker 1: because you sometimes, think, hmmm it's, like, oh you don't

1180
00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:27,840
Speaker 1: want that, possession maybe A siakam, iso but the number

1181
00:53:27,880 --> 00:53:32,920
Speaker 1: says damn good and interesting. Wrinkle haliburton ranks fourth in

1182
00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:35,440
Speaker 1: the league when you get into points per possession in.

1183
00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:38,360
Speaker 1: Isolation so now you got to the top ten currently

1184
00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:40,360
Speaker 1: when you're looking at at least a decent number of

1185
00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:43,319
Speaker 1: isolations In halle And siakam paired.

1186
00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:46,240
Speaker 3: Together, yeah as much as people are gonna Miss Pascal,

1187
00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:48,919
Speaker 3: siakam it's obvious that him as a number one option

1188
00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:51,040
Speaker 3: on the offense going through him for each and every

1189
00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:56,200
Speaker 3: time produced a mediocre. Offense literally middle of the, route

1190
00:53:56,560 --> 00:53:59,480
Speaker 3: middle of the, standings and middle of offensive. Ragning that's

1191
00:53:59,480 --> 00:53:59,960
Speaker 3: just the way it, was.

1192
00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:02,600
Speaker 1: Right but if he's your second or third, guy then

1193
00:54:02,600 --> 00:54:03,640
Speaker 1: you're you're feeling a.

1194
00:54:03,640 --> 00:54:04,480
Speaker 3: Lot you're winning a.

1195
00:54:04,520 --> 00:54:09,440
Speaker 1: Ship, yeah maybe second stat From Shoe siakam twenty seven

1196
00:54:09,520 --> 00:54:11,760
Speaker 1: for one hundred and three on above the break. Threes

1197
00:54:12,719 --> 00:54:15,200
Speaker 1: that's not. Good it's a low. Number he's very good

1198
00:54:15,239 --> 00:54:18,879
Speaker 1: from the corners shoots forty five, percent about nineteen for forty.

1199
00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:20,640
Speaker 1: TWO i Think shoe had it down As but, yeah

1200
00:54:20,680 --> 00:54:23,480
Speaker 1: twenty seven for one oh, three that's twenty six percent

1201
00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:28,840
Speaker 1: above the break. Threes, overall thirty one point seven percent

1202
00:54:28,880 --> 00:54:31,720
Speaker 1: from deep ranks one hundred and sixtieth among one hundred

1203
00:54:31,719 --> 00:54:34,600
Speaker 1: and eighty seven players without at least one hundred. Attempts so,

1204
00:54:34,880 --> 00:54:38,080
Speaker 1: low really. Low but what's weird is over the last,

1205
00:54:38,680 --> 00:54:41,160
Speaker 1: UH i don't, know like ten, games he was sort

1206
00:54:41,160 --> 00:54:43,600
Speaker 1: of on fire from. Deep he had a couple stretches

1207
00:54:43,600 --> 00:54:46,520
Speaker 1: there where he couldn't. Miss so that's gonna be. IMPORTANT i,

1208
00:54:46,560 --> 00:54:49,520
Speaker 1: mean you've got a lot of shooters On indiana that

1209
00:54:49,600 --> 00:54:51,799
Speaker 1: you know you, got, buddy you gotta Even turner a little.

1210
00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:53,359
Speaker 1: Bit you Got Ni, Smith like those guys are High,

1211
00:54:53,600 --> 00:54:56,239
Speaker 1: haliburton high volume three point, shooters So siakam won't really

1212
00:54:56,239 --> 00:54:58,640
Speaker 1: have to be like doing. That but in today's, game

1213
00:54:58,800 --> 00:55:00,719
Speaker 1: you need all five guys be to shoot at least

1214
00:55:00,719 --> 00:55:03,760
Speaker 1: some confidence out there or at least helps so something

1215
00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:05,319
Speaker 1: to watch how well he shoots the three.

1216
00:55:05,320 --> 00:55:08,920
Speaker 3: Ball it's obvious when they got started to get ridding

1217
00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:11,200
Speaker 3: rid of the wings that they have too many. Of

1218
00:55:11,840 --> 00:55:14,200
Speaker 3: everybody got. Hot oh, YEAH i get to shoot. More

1219
00:55:14,360 --> 00:55:17,520
Speaker 3: we don't have o g And barnes And pascal. Anymore

1220
00:55:17,600 --> 00:55:21,840
Speaker 3: they started getting. Better pascal got way. Better when he

1221
00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:24,200
Speaker 3: started to feel, like oh, Yeah i'm gonna, shoot he

1222
00:55:24,239 --> 00:55:25,399
Speaker 3: looked like a different, guy that's.

1223
00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:27,359
Speaker 1: Obvious or maybe when he was realizing he was gonna get.

1224
00:55:27,360 --> 00:55:31,200
Speaker 1: Traded yeah, yeah.
