Yes, we'll end with some 72 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 1: rapid fire fun but first four games on last night. 73 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 1: We can quickly make our way through these, but we 74 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: had to talk a little bit about Luca and Kyrie 75 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 1: becoming the twenty second pair of teammates in EMMA history 76 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 1: to score forty points each in a game. Luca with 77 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 1: forty two in the MAVs one thirty three, one twenty 78 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:24,159 Speaker 1: six win over the Sixers, Kyrie chipping in forty eighty 79 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:28,119 Speaker 1: two points from the MAVs. And this was a game 80 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: in terms of you want to talk about runs in 81 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: a game of basketball, Holy Moly, Maverick's on fire at 82 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,360 Speaker 1: the third quarter a seventeen oh run with the Sixers. 83 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 1: It was suddenly a four point game. But in the end, uh, 84 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 1: Luca and Kyrie get it done for Dallas here and 85 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 1: they get a much needed win. 86 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 2: What do you think that's how they're gonna win, right, 87 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:49,239 Speaker 2: is a lot of O and some lackadaisical d. They 88 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:51,840 Speaker 2: just will give you up points in the paint that's yours. 89 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 2: You do your thing down there. They lost that sixty 90 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 2: to thirty four. They just got to hope to keep, 91 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,719 Speaker 2: you know, the other categories close, like the fast breakpoints, 92 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 2: which I think got helped by Josh Green in they're 93 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 2: turning some people over and then bomb away and go 94 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 2: on a run. And it had some feelings to me 95 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 2: like their run to the conference finals last year with Luca, 96 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 2: just like, let's light it up for a few minutes. 97 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 2: That's what they did at the beginning of the third quarter. 98 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 2: You mentioned the runs, a twenty to four run in 99 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 2: the first minute forty like, it was so fast at 100 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 2: the beginning of the third quarter. Yeah, and everybody, Luca 101 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 2: and Kyrie obviously bombs away. Thirteen of twenty one from 102 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 2: deep combined, it's a lot of threes. And then the 103 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 2: other guys. Bullock hit five threes, Cleba comes in, Hardaway 104 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 2: comes in, and they just hit so many and that's 105 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 2: how they're gonna win. That's literally the Formula season. 106 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 1: High twenty five threes on forty eight attempts, fifty from deep, 107 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 1: and that is how Dallas plays, and that is how 108 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,839 Speaker 1: they ultimately held on to get this victory. Though again 109 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 1: it was you know, the butt cheeks must have been 110 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:55,039 Speaker 1: getting tight there in Dallas when Philly ran off that 111 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 1: huge run and it was four point game, it was like, 112 00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: oh no, not again. We just blew a twenty some 113 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 1: point lead into the Lakers. We might blow you know, 114 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 1: a huge lee that we had on the Sixers last night, 115 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 1: but I think Luca hit a three and Kyrie hit 116 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 1: a three and sort of gave them some breathing room there. 117 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,840 Speaker 4: Again, that was just like the fastest run of all 118 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:13,559 Speaker 4: time I know that the Sixers had. At the beginning 119 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 4: of the fourth quarter. My kids woke up. I let 120 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 4: him watch the third I was like, what a great 121 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 4: dad I am. I just got to see the end 122 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 4: of the game here. MAVs are killing it. 123 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:26,360 Speaker 3: Ain't no way this turns around. Definitely definitely put him 124 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 3: to better. Came back downstairs, like what the four point game? 125 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:30,919 Speaker 3: It went like that. 126 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 1: A couple of. 127 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 4: Brutal, hardened turnovers though in the fourth quarter, like he 128 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 4: threw a pass backwards over his head easily picked off 129 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 4: by Luca. 130 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 3: I think Kyrie got one as well. 131 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:43,039 Speaker 4: But that's why the MAVs are going to stay on 132 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:46,359 Speaker 4: people's list as a dark horse title contender, because you 133 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 4: see him get this hot. You see forty point games 134 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:52,359 Speaker 4: from Luca and Kyrie. Both of them looked unstoppable. It 135 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:54,719 Speaker 4: looked like they had the most chemistry that they've had 136 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 4: in any of the games they've played. Together so far, 137 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 4: they can look unbeatable and unguardable in any single game 138 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 4: when they're making twenty five threes like this, when they're 139 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 4: getting contributions from their role player shooters, they look unbeatable. 140 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 4: But seven times not necessarily reliable. But you see a 141 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 4: game like that and you're like, Okay, if things break 142 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 4: perfectly and the MAVs have a hot shooting month, they 143 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 4: could be tough in the playoffs. 144 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 2: Just four to seven. So all you're asking for four 145 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 2: to seven? 146 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 1: Just four times? 147 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, multiple times, for sure. I think the little difference 148 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 2: was the chemistry. As you said, there's a lot more 149 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 2: action with Luke on the ball. Here comes Kyrie to 150 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 2: just mess up the defense. Kyrie would come over, set 151 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 2: a pick, slip a pick, so then you just had 152 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 2: to pick your poison. And same you know with Luca, 153 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 2: they were just a lot closer together where you had 154 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 2: to pick your poison. So Jason gives mixing it up 155 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 2: there for sure. I think that was happening. And Kyrie, 156 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 2: my god, that was just a show. Look, that was 157 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 2: the Kyrie show. The quickness, the explosiveness, wearing the sunglasses 158 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 2: after the game because he felt so good. In their 159 00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 2: postgame press conference. You don't usually see Kyrie lasses, I 160 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 2: don't think. But anyway, yeah, that was a show man. 161 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 1: How about Jalen McDaniels picking up three fouls in fourteen seconds. 162 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 1: Four fouls in basically a minute, that's rare. 163 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 2: Yeah he helped though, he did. 164 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 1: He did absolutely. I mean, you know, the defensive intensity 165 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: is there sometimes gets you in trouble. I don't think 166 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 1: all of those were like warranted fowls, but yeah, that's 167 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: something else. Three and fourteen seconds. 168 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 3: That was impressive. He ended up a plus fifteen though, 169 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 3: so I'm with you. 170 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 4: It was kind of like in high school, like your 171 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 4: team is getting crushed on the glass, so coaches like 172 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 4: put in the middle linebacker, just go in there and 173 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 4: mess some stuff up. And that's what Jalen McDaniels is doing. 174 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 4: He was just running around like crazy and it kind 175 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 4: of spurred on the run by the seventy six ers. 176 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 4: So I thought, a nice run from him, but a 177 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:45,080 Speaker 4: very weird start. 178 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, weird game overall. Let's move on to the second 179 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 1: game on TNT. Jordan Poole scored thirty four as the 180 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:55,200 Speaker 1: Warriors charged back again and they beat the Clippers a 181 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:58,680 Speaker 1: tail of two Half's here tasks where Clippers in control 182 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 1: for the first half and Warriors come out guns blazing 183 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 1: there in the second and just destroyed them in the 184 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:08,199 Speaker 1: third quarter. What was it forty two to sixteen. Jordan 185 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 1: Poole single handedly outscored the Clippers in that third quarter, 186 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 1: twenty two to sixteen. 187 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 4: Just twenty two points for Jordan Poole, twenty for the 188 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 4: rest of the Warriors, and only sixteen for the Clippers 189 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 4: in the third quarter. 190 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 1: I hate this Clippers team so much. Hate I hate 191 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 1: them them I do. I have no one I know. 192 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 1: I mean, it's no, that's it. I've been saying it, 193 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:32,679 Speaker 1: honestly since sart of season. I wasn't as convinced. I 194 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 1: didn't have as much, you know, faith in them as 195 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,439 Speaker 1: a team to go deep and they got the pieces, 196 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,560 Speaker 1: oh yeah and all that. It's like whenever they do 197 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 1: string together some victor, some wins, this happens and they just, oh, 198 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:48,680 Speaker 1: just a mess. And I'd also don't like, I don't 199 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,199 Speaker 1: know Tyler with this Westbrook thing, Like of course Westbrook 200 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 1: comes in, they can't win. I said that was gonna 201 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 1: happen as well. Unfortunately, as all all, it's all his fault. 202 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:59,200 Speaker 1: But it does suck. Westbrook with a big is tough. 203 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,200 Speaker 1: I mean, if he's playing with the plumb dog, he 204 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 1: ain't stretching the floor. Neither are zoobots and and Russ 205 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 1: is not a great shooter, so there's like some limitations 206 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,680 Speaker 1: there with that. I think lou has to go to man, 207 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: he's got he has to with these losses sort of 208 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 1: piling up here for them, and their offense has been brutal. 209 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:19,959 Speaker 1: After that one game where it was like one seventy 210 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: six seventy five against the Kings, it's been very bad 211 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 1: since then. And it's not just Russ, but I think 212 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,200 Speaker 1: the lineups they're not doing them any favors. 213 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 2: It's easy to put it on Russ. That's the first 214 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 2: thing people are going to talk about, for sure. There's 215 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 2: there's a lot of layers here. They bring in a 216 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 2: new bench as well, and now the bench has become 217 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 2: starters because they have injuries. They had two guys in 218 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 2: the starting lineup that shouldn't be there because of injuries. 219 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 2: I think what's also changed, you know, regardless of scheme, 220 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 2: and Draymond Green standing by the room while Russell Westbrook 221 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 2: has the ball twenty feet out is just their disposition, 222 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 2: the way they come out and play defense. I think 223 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 2: in the third quarter when Pool started running down their throats, 224 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 2: it was just a different lineup. I mean, they're just 225 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 2: they've switched like four things, I think is what it 226 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 2: comes down to. And Terrence Man was the energy at 227 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,559 Speaker 2: the point guard spot. They just they just had a 228 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 2: nice little chemistry and now they've changed that. And Westbrook 229 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:16,160 Speaker 2: sometimes ball watches and and they just don't know how 230 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 2: to stop runs. I mean, they were up in this game. 231 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:19,680 Speaker 1: Which is insane because I'm always told they have like 232 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,440 Speaker 1: two of the best perimeter defenders in the league. 233 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, but the two halves of this season for the Clippers, 234 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:26,840 Speaker 4: they don't play defense anymore. 235 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,679 Speaker 2: That's the thing. Yeah, they were great defensively, you know 236 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 2: pre Westbrook. They've slowed down last in a few weeks. 237 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 2: But that that's where it's coming from now. I mean, 238 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 2: they have their layers. Are the problems or offensively? What's 239 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 2: happening with Westbrook? Now we got these new bench guys 240 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 2: coming in. They've got a lot of things to figure 241 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 2: out a lot and then the defense is really what 242 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 2: lost in this game. So I like, you can talk 243 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,439 Speaker 2: about Westbrook and all that, but really, they just stopped 244 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:57,959 Speaker 2: working and Pool was obviously awesome. Yeah, yeah, he was spectacular. 245 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 2: What was more impressive was the free throws him getting 246 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 2: to the rim. He had eight free throws in that 247 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,839 Speaker 2: third quarter, Like he was we know what he heat, 248 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 2: the way he can shoot, and I mean it looks 249 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 2: strange even still, the way he side steps and it 250 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 2: looks like he's traveling, but he's not traveling. It's like 251 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 2: a six foot side step and he hits those shots. 252 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:17,559 Speaker 2: But the Warriors yet, I'm sorry, the Clippers just don't 253 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 2: fight the same way. They just don't know who they are. 254 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 2: I think Man was a big part of that. Just 255 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 2: we just talked about Jayleen McDaniel's. I think it's just 256 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 2: the same sort of thing, like they're not a scrappy 257 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 2: bunch anymore. And that's that's the problem. 258 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 3: Westbrook cannot play with another big guy. He has to 259 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:36,079 Speaker 3: play with only four shooters. They weren't guarding him last night. 260 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 4: And you're right, there's other things wrong with the Clippers, 261 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,320 Speaker 4: but this, to me was the epitome of a Westbrook loss. 262 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,599 Speaker 4: They weren't guarding him. Draymond was just standing in the 263 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:45,319 Speaker 4: middle of the lane. The Clippers turned the ball over 264 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 4: sixteen times, never got back on defense. Twenty nine points 265 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,840 Speaker 4: off the turnovers for Golden State. Russ went three for twelve. 266 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 4: The Clippers made nine threes last night. Like these are 267 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 4: all of the problems with Westbrook. Everybody said, you can't 268 00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 4: play him with another shooter. The only thing that works 269 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,199 Speaker 4: playing him right now is four other shooters around him. 270 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:04,319 Speaker 4: It worked for the Rockets, right like that was the 271 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 4: last real run of success that Westbrook had was when 272 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,200 Speaker 4: they traded all of their big guys so that they 273 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 4: could play five out with him basically being the big guy. 274 00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 4: When the shooting is bad, the turnovers come for Westbrook 275 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 4: as well. He had four turnovers last night, just six assists. 276 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 4: It's just not going to work if he's the starter. 277 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:24,439 Speaker 4: If they have real championship aspirations, ask for Jordan Poole. 278 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,960 Speaker 4: This guy takes the boldest heat checks of anybody in 279 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:29,960 Speaker 4: the league. He finished nine for twenty last night. He 280 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 4: takes heat checks for other players. I think third quarter 281 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 4: Warriors are coming back. They've allowed one basket in four minutes. 282 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 4: Klay Thompson ties the game sixty six sixty six off 283 00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:43,199 Speaker 4: a three pointer. A Draymond assists the ball is moving 284 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 4: like crazy. Next time down, Pool pulls a twenty eight footer. 285 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 4: Hell yeah nothing, Oh no, like he didn't hit anything. 286 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:50,960 Speaker 4: D yeah, And that's just how it is for Pool. 287 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 4: It's like, I don't know if he's ever actually made 288 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 4: two shots in a row, but he always wants to 289 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:58,360 Speaker 4: make two shots in a row. He takes atrocious shots, 290 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 4: but he was getting to the last night, So it's 291 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 4: all good. 292 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 1: Hit five threes and this is a big win for 293 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,959 Speaker 1: the Warriors. That's a fourth in a row. They're thirty 294 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 1: three and thirty now. I think it's the first time 295 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 1: all season I want to say that they've been three 296 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 1: games above five hundred. They're in the fifth seed. They're 297 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 1: a game back of the Suns. You know, they're half 298 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 1: a game up on the Mavericks. And you know, I 299 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 1: was questioning them a couple of weeks ago, or maybe 300 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 1: even just two weeks score whatever it was. It was like, 301 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 1: I know they're the defending champs. I know once Curry 302 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 1: comes back, you know that's one of the best players 303 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: of all time, they're going to be a tough out. 304 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 1: But like, man, they've proven that they're not a good 305 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:31,720 Speaker 1: road team. Are they gonna be able to go on 306 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 1: the road in all of these series and win, win, win, win, win, 307 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: and try and get back to the finals. I didn't 308 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 1: think that was possible. So this is really helping their chances. 309 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 1: They might even they might even have home court advantage 310 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 1: in a first round series, like it's obviously still in 311 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 1: play here could catch his sons. Kings have a tough schedule, 312 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:52,240 Speaker 1: we'll see, but wow, stringing these together without Curry, without Wiggins, 313 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: it's impressive, you know. And they've been weird games because 314 00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 1: they're getting their asses handed to them in the first 315 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 1: half and then they just come out and come right 316 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 1: back just like that. 317 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 2: They're getting better without Curry, and they know how to 318 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 2: turn on the last part of the season. I mean, 319 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 2: they're getting tougher, they're getting just more tough minded. Klay 320 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 2: Thompson with a career high in boards in this game, 321 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 2: eleven rebounds, doing the Wiggins thing, which they've missed. You know, 322 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:19,120 Speaker 2: Wiggins played larger than you know his size in the 323 00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 2: playoffs last year. Clay's doing it right now with Wiggans 324 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 2: missing six games due to personal reasons. Curry should be 325 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 2: back this Sunday, so things things are driving there for 326 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 2: the Warriors. Yeah, for sure. 327 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 1: It's just funny to me that, like, we could have 328 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 1: a team in the Warriors that are going to be 329 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 1: in the playoffs that could have nine, maybe ten road wins, 330 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 1: and people will still be like they're the favorites to 331 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 1: come out of the list, And you may not be wrong. 332 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 1: It's just crazy, like you don't see that a team 333 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 1: that bad, that have played that poorly on the road 334 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 1: to then be a favorite in a lot of series, 335 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 1: especially if they are on the road in these and 336 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 1: starting you know, games one and two in somebody else's barn, 337 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 1: and they could still go all the way, I mean, 338 00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 1: especially with Curry in the mix. 339 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 3: So yeah, I'm not too worried about it. 340 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 4: And if I'm the Warriors, isn't the stat that they've 341 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 4: won a road playoff game in every series that they've 342 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 4: been in. And then you look at the road records 343 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 4: for the top six in the Western Conference. The Nuggets 344 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 4: are sixteen and fifteen, Memphis twelve and eighteen, Sacramento the best, 345 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 4: he's eighteen and thirteen. 346 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 3: And then it's all under five hundred games. 347 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 4: Every team stinks on the road in the Western Conference, 348 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 4: and we've seen the Warriors win a lot of road 349 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 4: games in the playoffs, so they're gonna want the four seed. 350 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 4: But if they end up in five, I think they'll 351 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 4: be fine. 352 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: Okay, this game sucks for Raptors fans. Kuzma scored thirty 353 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 1: and the Wizards beat the Raps to edge closer in 354 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 1: the Eastern Conference. They're basically in a virtual tie now 355 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 1: for that ninth tenth spot in the plan. This is 356 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 1: the first of three games here in March tasks between 357 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 1: the Rats, all right and the Wizards. Yeah, I joked 358 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 1: on Twitter last night, don't worry Raps fans. We always 359 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 1: lose game one because we got the Wizards on Saturday 360 00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: here and then they play them again later in March. 361 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:00,640 Speaker 1: But these are big, big games, and this is a 362 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 1: brutal loss. I thought they played like garbage too. I 363 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,920 Speaker 1: think like two Raptors players played well in this pearl og. 364 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 1: Maybe Bouchet a little bit off the bench. Everybody else 365 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 1: was bad. 366 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:11,880 Speaker 2: This was a blowout as a you know, a fake 367 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,719 Speaker 2: blowout essentially did Yeah they got That was a bad night. 368 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 2: So you hate the Clippers, you hate this Raptors team? 369 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:20,120 Speaker 1: No, I mean I don't hate them, very frustrated with them, 370 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,359 Speaker 1: but this was a Wizards are. The Wizards are like 371 00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 1: the Raptors. U unfortunately like look good some nights. You 372 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 1: get excited for a little bit and then they let 373 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 1: you down in a hurry because they're not gonna be exactly. 374 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:31,719 Speaker 1: They played well last night. 375 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 2: I can't wait till game two of this series. You're right, 376 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 2: throw away game one, it's fine, come back in game two. 377 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 2: You're right. They yeah, they're consistent. Consistency is the problem. 378 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 1: Any thoughts on KU's going for thirty? The way the 379 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:47,240 Speaker 1: Raptors always with stars, load up on the on the 380 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 1: you know, the the star player and Beal in this case, 381 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 1: and move the ball and you're gonna get shots. That's 382 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:52,360 Speaker 1: what they did. 383 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:54,719 Speaker 4: Isn't that what Joel Embiid said earlier this season? They 384 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:56,400 Speaker 4: care more about taking your star out of the game 385 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,960 Speaker 4: than actually winning the game. So minor victory for the Raptor. 386 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 4: Bradley Beal did not lead the team in scoring. Unfortunately, 387 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,640 Speaker 4: Kuzma went for thirty and Porzingis went for twenty five. 388 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:08,760 Speaker 4: I just wish a team would beat the Wizards. It 389 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:11,040 Speaker 4: ain't that hard. The Bulls did it, but man Hawks 390 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:13,679 Speaker 4: just lost to him. Raptors just lost to him. 391 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 1: A little help here. Well, we'll see you on Saturdays suddenly. 392 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:18,680 Speaker 1: I mean, all these games for the Raps and the 393 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 1: Wizards and the Bulls and the Hawks, like these are 394 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:22,920 Speaker 1: big games here, especially when they play each other, because 395 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,640 Speaker 1: you can drop a game or go up a game 396 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:27,760 Speaker 1: right there in one night. But yeah, they play once 397 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:30,960 Speaker 1: again on Saturday, also in Washington. It's one of those 398 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:39,160 Speaker 1: stay there and play them. What will the Raps get? Museums? 399 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 1: Aren't the museums for a lot of museums? 400 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:42,240 Speaker 2: Of course? Yeah? 401 00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:45,320 Speaker 1: Good, And we all said the Spurs win again. I 402 00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:46,719 Speaker 1: don't know if you have any thoughts on that. It's 403 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:48,959 Speaker 1: a wind streak, back to back jacks. Yeah, that's exactly right, 404 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 1: Jeremy Sohan is a good game. 405 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,680 Speaker 3: A guy named Mitch gotta win. Huh? Wasn't that his name? 406 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:58,160 Speaker 3: Mitch Johnson was the substitute coach. I did write it down, 407 00:18:58,160 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 3: but I think it was a guy named Mitch. 408 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:00,119 Speaker 1: Yes, you can fee. 409 00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 3: Was there? 410 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 1: Okay? 411 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, also sounds like a baseball name. 412 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 1: Yes, all right, let's talk some NBA awards, the front runners. 413 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 1: I thought it'd be fun if we divvy these up, 414 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:15,159 Speaker 1: so like you take two of them, you take two 415 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 1: of them. I'll take two of them, give your top 416 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,680 Speaker 1: five when it comes to MVP, maybe your top three 417 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 1: for all the other ones, and then we will hear 418 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 1: from said no donkey, and then we'll debate it. Say, yep, 419 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 1: exactly my ballot, or what you're missing so and so 420 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:32,880 Speaker 1: and what about this guy. I'm sure we'll come up here, 421 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 1: but let's start with the most valuable player. We gave 422 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:38,280 Speaker 1: the big one to Trey, So I don't know if 423 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:42,400 Speaker 1: you followed the rules and went top five ballot here 424 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 1: for this one, and then we'll do top three for 425 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:45,720 Speaker 1: all the other ones. So what do you got right 426 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 1: now with a quarter of the season to go. I 427 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 1: assume it's still up in the air for you, Like 428 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 1: this is not a done deal. 429 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:51,640 Speaker 3: It's up in the air. 430 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 4: Okay, Yeah, And I came in I'll be quite honest. 431 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:55,919 Speaker 4: I came in not wanting to give it to NICOLEA 432 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 4: Jokic just because it feels like it's wrapped up for him. 433 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:00,919 Speaker 4: I'm looking for reasons to get to anybody else, So 434 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,679 Speaker 4: stay tuned. My other part on this, Skeets is that 435 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,359 Speaker 4: this is really two ballots, because you got a top 436 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 4: three and then you really got a four and five. Yes, like, 437 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:12,119 Speaker 4: there's three real candidates for the number one spot in 438 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 4: Yokish Jannis and embiid my four and five, though we'll 439 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:19,440 Speaker 4: start there. I got Jason Tatum over Luka doncic ookat 440 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 4: Tatum in fourth. 441 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 3: He's averaging thirty a game. 442 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 4: He's sixth in the league in scoring, an all around 443 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:28,000 Speaker 4: player on the best team in the league for a 444 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:30,639 Speaker 4: large majority of the season. 445 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 3: Celtics just got passed. 446 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:35,159 Speaker 4: As for doncic he's got superior numbers to basically everybody 447 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 4: else in the league. He's leading the league in scoring, 448 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 4: but a little underwhelming in the clutch. I would say 449 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:43,680 Speaker 4: this year shooting forty seven percent, which is fine. Mans 450 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 4: are just eighteen and fourteen. They play so many close games, 451 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:48,959 Speaker 4: so they have a lot of clutch opportunities. But I mean, 452 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:51,119 Speaker 4: take your pick. You could go dunk over Tatum if 453 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 4: you wanted it. Personally, I got Tatum at four, donc 454 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 4: icet five. 455 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: Okay, I think most people would have that. Actually, all right, all. 456 00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:00,639 Speaker 4: Right, now to the big fellas, all the best players 457 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 4: in the league of centers. That's pretty crazy. I mean, 458 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:06,680 Speaker 4: you could argue, you could argue with Jannis, but nonetheless. 459 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:08,359 Speaker 3: They're all big guys. They're all big guys. 460 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 4: So I will give you my biggest knock on all 461 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:15,880 Speaker 4: three of them, followed by my biggest pro for all. 462 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:16,239 Speaker 3: Three of them. 463 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 2: Biggest big guy, big big knock. Here we go. 464 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 4: He's my big knockers here my biggest knock out, Nicola Jokic. 465 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 4: He's a zero on defense, not a negative, not a negative. 466 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 1: Zero, not a negative. 467 00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:32,879 Speaker 4: He is not a positive sure in the way that 468 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,119 Speaker 4: Yannis is and the way that embiid are where they 469 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:38,359 Speaker 4: can take over a game defensively. Respect to Jokic for 470 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 4: being a good defender, for getting his hand on a 471 00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:44,200 Speaker 4: lot of balls. He steals quite often. He's pretty quick. 472 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:46,440 Speaker 4: He obviously is a smart player, so he knows where 473 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 4: to be. The defense I don't think falls apart because 474 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 4: of him in the regular season, at least, so I 475 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:55,439 Speaker 4: think he's a good defender, not great, not bad. 476 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 3: Zero. It sounds like an insult, but it's actually okay. Yannis. 477 00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:02,639 Speaker 4: The thing I can't shake with Giannis is that the 478 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 4: offense for the Bucks was really bad when he was 479 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:06,880 Speaker 4: the number one guy out there, when Middleton was out 480 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 4: of the lineup, when Drew was in and out of 481 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 4: the lineup. They were a bottom ten offense and he 482 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 4: was having the highest usage percentage of his career. 483 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 3: So that to me says you. 484 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 4: Can't totally elevate the offense the way a Jokic or 485 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:25,120 Speaker 4: an Embiid does. My biggest knock on Embiid disjointed start 486 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:27,439 Speaker 4: to the season for the Sixers. He came in banged 487 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 4: up with planner fasciitis. There was a bunch of new 488 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:32,719 Speaker 4: pieces in the lineup for the Sixers. It took him 489 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 4: a little bit to kind of figure out how they're 490 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 4: going to all be playing together. 491 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:36,359 Speaker 3: Started twelve and twelve. 492 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 4: Since then awesome, except for some recent high profile losses 493 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:45,640 Speaker 4: which I think would have really helped. Also on my ballot, 494 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:48,320 Speaker 4: Embiid is two and five against other MVP candidates. 495 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:51,880 Speaker 1: Oh interesting, Yes, the good stuff. 496 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:55,399 Speaker 4: Joel Embiid second in scoring in the league and maybe 497 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 4: has played the three best games I've seen this year. 498 00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 4: Fifty nine eleven rebounds, eight assist seven blocks against the Jazz. 499 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:04,200 Speaker 4: He had the forty seven to eighteen to five, three 500 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 4: steals and two blocks against Denver, forty one twelve, five 501 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:09,400 Speaker 4: and three against Boston. 502 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:11,960 Speaker 3: Also hit a three quarter court shot just a. 503 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:16,119 Speaker 4: Smidge too late, So maybe he can get to single 504 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:19,880 Speaker 4: game dominance the most when he's completely locked in, when 505 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,679 Speaker 4: the jumper is flowing, when he's getting drawn calls and 506 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 4: going to the line. Ye Embiid has played some incredible 507 00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:29,439 Speaker 4: games this season. Jannis is the best case for Yanis 508 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:31,400 Speaker 4: is he's the best player in the league. 509 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:32,199 Speaker 1: That's good. 510 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:35,320 Speaker 4: Guy's the best player in the league. He's dominating right now, 511 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:38,600 Speaker 4: full strength Bucks team. We are in the doldrums of 512 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,160 Speaker 4: the season when giving a full effort every single night 513 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,159 Speaker 4: is going to be advantageous. And you know Jannis is 514 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 4: bringing it every single night. Jokic when he's Jokich, the 515 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 4: Nuggets always win twenty four and oh in games he 516 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:54,920 Speaker 4: has triple doubles. And Denver hasn't had a bad month yet. 517 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 4: That's what I keep coming back to. Bucks had a 518 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:00,480 Speaker 4: month where they were about five hundred sixers. Obvious had 519 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,720 Speaker 4: their slow start to the season, but Denver has just 520 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:06,639 Speaker 4: been winning, winning, winning, all year long. They're the best 521 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 4: team in their Western conference. Yokich is a little bit 522 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 4: of an efficiency merchant here. It feels like he won't 523 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:14,280 Speaker 4: take a bad shot because he doesn't want to miss it. 524 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 4: But then he hit sixty three percent of his shots 525 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,399 Speaker 4: scores every time he shoots the ball. The problem is 526 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:21,680 Speaker 4: he won the MVP last year. That's my only knock 527 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,200 Speaker 4: on Nicole Yokich. He won MVP last year when it 528 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:25,919 Speaker 4: should have gone to somebody else. Then we wouldn't even 529 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:29,440 Speaker 4: be talking about three straight. So my official ballot yo Kich, 530 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 4: Jannis Embiid. 531 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:33,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, mine's the same. Mine's definitely the same. 532 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:38,119 Speaker 1: You have Janni's second over Embiid, Like, yeah, yeah, yeah. 533 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:41,239 Speaker 2: The reason why I think, yeah, Jannis could sneak in 534 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:45,159 Speaker 2: with voters is because obviously Jokis has won two in 535 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:48,160 Speaker 2: a row. That's a part of it. Second part, who 536 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:50,000 Speaker 2: are you going to take in a playoff series? The 537 00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 2: guy who's won a championship? So I think people will 538 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:57,520 Speaker 2: some will gravitate to Yannis just the best player. That 539 00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:00,240 Speaker 2: still most people call him the best player beca of 540 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:02,240 Speaker 2: what he's done in the playoffs. I think if it 541 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 2: was a tighter race off Embiid's team was better and 542 00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:09,399 Speaker 2: was a lot closer to the number one seed in 543 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:12,160 Speaker 2: the Eastern Conference, then you'd have some debates between Yokichen 544 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:13,959 Speaker 2: Embid and that's where Yannis would sneak in a sort 545 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,399 Speaker 2: of the default guy. But right now, I think Jokic 546 00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:20,359 Speaker 2: is going to be the guy even if he doesn't dominate. 547 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 2: He said twenty four to zero when he gets has 548 00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 2: a triple double, so I guess they're twenty and nineteen 549 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:27,400 Speaker 2: when he doesn't have a triple double. Just just be better, man, 550 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 2: Just be better, and your tea, your team will win. 551 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:32,159 Speaker 2: It is crazy to see the usage rate, Like, if 552 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:36,359 Speaker 2: you want to make the narrative for Giannis, it's Middleton's 553 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:38,679 Speaker 2: played barely at all this season, twenty games or so, 554 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:42,399 Speaker 2: and he hasn't been himself whatsoever, while Jokich has had 555 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:44,920 Speaker 2: Murray the entire season, even if he wasn't a hundred percent. 556 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 2: Porter has been there most of the season as well, 557 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:49,119 Speaker 2: played like forty six games. So you can play like 558 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:50,480 Speaker 2: the card where you're. 559 00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 1: Basically playing the card that helped Yokich win exactly last year. Yeah, 560 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 1: he didn't have his guys yea. Yeah. 561 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 2: And and the usage rate, as you said, thirty nine 562 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 2: percent for you, that's a crazy number. It's the highest 563 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,359 Speaker 2: in the NBA right now. And they have come back 564 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:07,920 Speaker 2: since he's got his guys back to like being a 565 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 2: mediocre offense. That's what they are, they're mediocre, he's a 566 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 2: better defender. I don't know if I don't know if 567 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 2: it's gonna happen. Though for Yanna, it's just because Jokic 568 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:17,880 Speaker 2: is by far and away the one seed in the West, 569 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:19,919 Speaker 2: the running away with it, and their records are so 570 00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 2: similar to the top teams in the Eastern Conference, in 571 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 2: the Bucks and the Celtics. It's not far off. I 572 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 2: thought the the their record would be, you know, at 573 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 2: least five games worse or something like that, and even 574 00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:33,080 Speaker 2: if they won the West, but it's just so damn close. 575 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 2: I think Jokic is going to get it. And that's fine, 576 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:42,640 Speaker 2: that's fine. It's it's you're hearing the arguments right now, like, oh, 577 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 2: he hasn't won as in the playoffs. He hasn't won 578 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,879 Speaker 2: in the playoffs. But you know, it is a regular 579 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:52,359 Speaker 2: season award, so it all comes down to how do 580 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:54,359 Speaker 2: you think about this damn award? And he has been 581 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,639 Speaker 2: the best player in the regular season, even if he 582 00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,879 Speaker 2: hasn't won a championship like Anistetompo, And that weird fact 583 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,040 Speaker 2: is gonna get Yanni some votes. 584 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:04,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, do you think it will matter who has the 585 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:08,160 Speaker 1: best record in the NBA be at the Bucks. Really, 586 00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 1: I guess in instan since if we don't think the 587 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:12,360 Speaker 1: Sixers could catch them, and you're saying it's you'll kitch 588 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 1: you on its one two in your mind anyway or 589 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,480 Speaker 1: on your bellot, will that matter, Like if if and 590 00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:18,560 Speaker 1: maybe somebody goes or the Bucks continue to stay on 591 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 1: a hot run and finish with four more wins than 592 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 1: the other team in the other conference. 593 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:26,160 Speaker 2: I don't think so. No. I think I think where 594 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:28,919 Speaker 2: we only look at this the one conference. If you're 595 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,160 Speaker 2: the one seed in that conference, that's good. We don't 596 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:33,360 Speaker 2: have the capacity to look at divisions anymore. We don't 597 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 2: have the capacity to look at both conferences at the 598 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 2: same time unless that's like a huge gap. If you're 599 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,160 Speaker 2: the one seed, I think that's that's enough. 600 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 1: Well, it's gonna be. It feels like it's gonna be. 601 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:44,520 Speaker 1: Neither of these teams or any of these guys, MVP 602 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:46,119 Speaker 1: guys on these teams are gonna have a They're not 603 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 1: gonna be on a sixty win team. I mean, I 604 00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 1: guess it could be, but I don't think it's going 605 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 1: to be. It's going to be probably in that fifty 606 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 1: five fifty seven win area a lot of wins, but 607 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 1: not like that upper echelon nice. Sixty five is the 608 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 1: type of number you're like, well, that's an time team 609 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 1: there in the regular season, even sixty very very good. 610 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:04,679 Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm with you. I think it's sort of 611 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:06,880 Speaker 1: all that will not be like you won't be able 612 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,000 Speaker 1: to go, well, they won two more games and then 613 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:12,359 Speaker 1: so and so it's like, really, they're both really good 614 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:15,879 Speaker 1: teams because their guys lead them to that. But I agree, 615 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 1: I have it like I have it. You'll Kitchen Beatianness. 616 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 1: I'll have Tatum fourth and then Luca fifth. But I'm 617 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 1: gonna have no issues with any of these guys winning it. 618 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:26,199 Speaker 1: And it's sort of fun that it's a little bit 619 00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:29,000 Speaker 1: up in the air. Still, I think a monster fifteen 620 00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 1: games from one of these guys could catapult them above 621 00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 1: the other two. I don't think that's that far fetched 622 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:37,480 Speaker 1: in terms of their team success or just like a 623 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 1: a heater, a forty twenty average heater. Here of the 624 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 1: last little little bit, let's hear from you, guys. 625 00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 2: And it's nice to have Joe embid in the second 626 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 2: seed just so you can come in second in voting 627 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:50,240 Speaker 2: every single season. Yeah, two straight seasons in the second spot, 628 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:51,480 Speaker 2: so he could do it again. 629 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:55,080 Speaker 1: He could, he could, indeed, and he'd hate it. Let's 630 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 1: talk most improved task. You've got this one. Yeah, what's 631 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 1: your ballot? We'll do you know from here on out, 632 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:01,720 Speaker 1: just one through three. 633 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 2: Well, the winner of this already either has a huge 634 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 2: increase in raw numbers or rewrites the narrative of the 635 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 2: just the reputation he's had in the league, and my 636 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:14,640 Speaker 2: number one guy has done both. Larry Market and has 637 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 2: done both of those, and that's why I think he's 638 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 2: a lock to win this thing. He scored ten more 639 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 2: points than he did last year per game, so he's 640 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:23,960 Speaker 2: up to twenty five points per game. Run numbers are nice, 641 00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 2: way more efficient. Two, which is strange. Fifty one from 642 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 2: the field, forty one from three on seven and a 643 00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 2: half attempts, very nice, and he's facing up in the post. 644 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:38,080 Speaker 2: He hits those threes. The dunks we've talked about. You know, 645 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:41,120 Speaker 2: we made a short for Lowry Market in dunks because 646 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 2: he's thrown down so many not just good dunks, not 647 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:50,240 Speaker 2: just quantity, but very very video worthy, just second look worthy. 648 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 2: Let's watch them again. 649 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 1: Quantity and quality. 650 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, just they're nice. 651 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:58,320 Speaker 2: He's an All Star. He's now the most notable Lowry 652 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 2: in the league. I say that because I'm just trying 653 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 2: to keep up my streak of mentioning Kyle Lowry in 654 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:06,800 Speaker 2: each and every show, and I'm doing it anyway. Second, 655 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 2: Jalen Brunson, He's up to twenty three point eight points 656 00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 2: per game after scoring sixteen point three last year. He's 657 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 2: lived up to the contract. He should have been an 658 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 2: All Star. And I mentioned the All Star thing because 659 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:25,960 Speaker 2: I like going with guys that have gone from good 660 00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:29,920 Speaker 2: too great, and Jalen Brunson is in that category instead 661 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 2: of guys going like, you know, fine to good, replacement 662 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,320 Speaker 2: level player or average player to good. So Jalen Brunson's 663 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 2: taking that step. And as I said, Larry Markin rewrote 664 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 2: his narrative as sort of a guy kind of on 665 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 2: the peripheral of the league, kind of like a replacement 666 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 2: player level player. Jalen Brunson's contract was questioned when he 667 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 2: moved from Dallas to New York, and he's he's destroyed that. 668 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 2: I mean, he's ripped up that narrative. Third, this is 669 00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:01,280 Speaker 2: an interesting one but also a good to great for me. 670 00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 2: Shay Gilga Salaxy. Well, that's a great to greater, great 671 00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 2: to greater, Okay, okay, Yeah, he's up six point five 672 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 2: points per game from last season, so he was great 673 00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 2: last year at around twenty four and a half. He's 674 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 2: up to thirty one, five point seven assists, four point 675 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 2: seven rebounds. Again, like Lowry markin in more efficient even 676 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:22,400 Speaker 2: though he's got a bigger role with Oka see Thunder, 677 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 2: he's just smarter as well, taking fewer threes. He's a 678 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 2: very rare guard superstar in this league where he doesn't 679 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 2: take threes. And I will say, right here, right now, 680 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:35,720 Speaker 2: in this spot where he's missed some time, it kind 681 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:38,360 Speaker 2: of hurts his chances of winning the whole thing. Yeah, 682 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 2: it does of winning this award. And he had a 683 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:44,240 Speaker 2: shot though as as the great to greater? Is that 684 00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 2: what he said? Oh yeah, sure, sure he's I mean 685 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:48,160 Speaker 2: it's similar. 686 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:50,320 Speaker 1: To John Morant winning last year. Right. We knew Joam 687 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 1: Rant was good, really good player, and then he went 688 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 1: to another level. And I think you've even labeled this 689 00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 1: award at times like almost like not MVP runner up, 690 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 1: but like MVP he liked. Yeah, it's like you're not 691 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 1: on the top five ballot. Baby MVP, and that's sort 692 00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 1: of what Jaw got last year, and that's I think 693 00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 1: the case for a guy like SGA this year in 694 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:10,840 Speaker 1: winning Most Improved. 695 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:12,000 Speaker 2: He'll get some VP votes. 696 00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:15,600 Speaker 1: I'm also with you him being out maybe injured, health 697 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:18,240 Speaker 1: and safety, the team losing now, falling out of the 698 00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:20,440 Speaker 1: plane not not great. Like if he had just continued 699 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 1: the run that he had been playing at that unbelievable 700 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:24,880 Speaker 1: All star level, then I think it is his. But 701 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 1: maybe I don't know. I don't know he's back. I 702 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 1: don't know how many games he's gonna play down the 703 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:30,320 Speaker 1: stretch here, and then maybe it goes to one of 704 00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 1: those other guys like Larry Markinen or jell and Brunson, 705 00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:33,960 Speaker 1: who are very very deserving I think too. 706 00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:37,800 Speaker 2: Baby MVP is fun. Yeah, Jrummerant was seventh in MVP 707 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 2: voting last year. Right, he'll be in that ballpark. 708 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, he'll be. He might get some top ten votes. Yeah, 709 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:45,760 Speaker 1: he'll get a handful. Somebody will throw him on a ballot. 710 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, the ballots are top five, Right, you just vote 711 00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:51,800 Speaker 2: for five people. Yeah, twelve people had votes last year. 712 00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:54,920 Speaker 2: So yeah, you'll he'll sneak something. Uh you want to 713 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:57,160 Speaker 2: hear some what about this guy most improved or you guys, 714 00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:58,640 Speaker 2: yeah talk about yeah, who. 715 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 1: Was at the top of your from fund too good? 716 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,320 Speaker 1: Did you have any like that type of old school 717 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 1: most improved player? 718 00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:07,240 Speaker 2: I didn't really know. 719 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 1: Okay, I mean it's done. It's done doing it that way? 720 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:11,560 Speaker 1: Is it? 721 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 3: Because you just have too. 722 00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:17,960 Speaker 2: Many goods to really really good? Like the like the 723 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:21,800 Speaker 2: the improvement from a fine to good is it's basically 724 00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:24,720 Speaker 2: equivalent to some of these. So like these because they're 725 00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:27,000 Speaker 2: going to great are just a little bit more impressive. 726 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 2: But what we got, we gotta we got a MAXI 727 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 2: was all right, Halliburton. 728 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:33,600 Speaker 3: I think it could be in the mix empty. 729 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:34,640 Speaker 2: No, that's a good one. 730 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 1: I was good. Kuzma, he's right in between those two levels. 731 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:45,520 Speaker 3: I would say, right, yeah, better than fine to almost great? 732 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 2: Was the was it the I mean, the Julius Randall 733 00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:55,240 Speaker 2: story is a little like that good kind of plummeted 734 00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 2: came back was awesome. Now he's plummeting plumbing again last 735 00:33:57,840 --> 00:33:59,480 Speaker 2: year kind of came back like Kuzma was a twenty 736 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 2: point per game score not efficiently way back in the day. 737 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:05,800 Speaker 1: He never never, never hit the twenty point per game mark. 738 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:08,400 Speaker 1: No He tapped out of eighteen point seven in his 739 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:11,239 Speaker 1: second season, had seventeen last year, and he's averaging twenty 740 00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 1: one and a half points per. 741 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:13,799 Speaker 2: Game this year. He was playing before his time? Was 742 00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 2: it eighteen point seven? Yeah? 743 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:18,680 Speaker 1: Okay, I mean he would have definitely in today's game head. 744 00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Nony? 745 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:20,560 Speaker 1: Who else? 746 00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:24,160 Speaker 2: I guess I'm thinking of the Clarkson. He never got twenty. 747 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,279 Speaker 2: That's it? No, I got that's it. Haliburn was thrown 748 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:29,400 Speaker 2: in there. He was probably a candidate earlier in the season. 749 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:32,520 Speaker 2: Fell off a little bit, MAXI going to the bench 750 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:35,120 Speaker 2: hurt him, although he would have been in that category. 751 00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 2: He has improved. Doc started him last night? What up 752 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:41,840 Speaker 2: with that interesting stuff there? Doc? Experimenting? That's all I got? 753 00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 2: Those are mine? 754 00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:46,359 Speaker 1: What about you? TK on MIP? Did you agree with 755 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 1: Lowry markinen one? 756 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:52,080 Speaker 4: Yes, okay, I think markan In deserves it over any 757 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:55,279 Speaker 4: other candidate. I mean, I love seeing Jalen Brunson on 758 00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:57,920 Speaker 4: the list. Shay, I think is a worthy inclusion as well. 759 00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:01,480 Speaker 4: But Marketing increased his per game by eleven points per game. 760 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 4: It looks like it came completely different player. Yeah, it's 761 00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:07,720 Speaker 4: like the flashes that you saw in Chicago and Cleveland 762 00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:10,360 Speaker 4: are now the whole game for him because Will Hardy 763 00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:12,560 Speaker 4: and the Jazz basically flipped the floor, took everybody out 764 00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:14,799 Speaker 4: of the middle, and now Lowry just runs wild on 765 00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:15,320 Speaker 4: the inside. 766 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 3: I think he is the clear choice this year. 767 00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:21,440 Speaker 1: All right, let's do Defensive Player of the Year. I 768 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 1: took this one. Nobody else wanted it. In fact, you 769 00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:25,920 Speaker 1: demanded not to have it. I was amazing. 770 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:28,520 Speaker 2: Yes, was that because you don't like the Clippers. I 771 00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:29,439 Speaker 2: don't like this award. 772 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:30,320 Speaker 1: I don't like defense. 773 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,480 Speaker 2: I love defense, It's an important part of the game. 774 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:38,000 Speaker 2: I just like I think it should go to the 775 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:40,279 Speaker 2: team defense. That's whatever comes down to. It's fine giving 776 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 2: it to an individual, but this is a team award. 777 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:42,920 Speaker 3: Oh. 778 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:44,680 Speaker 1: I think there's only three guys that are gonna win this, 779 00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:47,560 Speaker 1: have any chance of winning it. And I actually struggled 780 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 1: to put them in order, because I think you can 781 00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:51,319 Speaker 1: make a legit case for all three. But I have 782 00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:55,120 Speaker 1: it won two three right now. Jared Jackson, Junior, bam Adebayo, 783 00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:58,200 Speaker 1: Brook Lopez. I think it's those three guys that are 784 00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:02,479 Speaker 1: winning this, and deservedly so. Nikaias Duncan had a great 785 00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:06,520 Speaker 1: stat about Jared Jackson Junior and the numbers he's putting 786 00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:10,440 Speaker 1: up of protecting the rim and how wild it is. 787 00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:13,400 Speaker 1: Among fifty plus players defending at least four shots at 788 00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:16,800 Speaker 1: the rim per game, Jared Jackson Junior holds the offensive 789 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:20,920 Speaker 1: player to just forty three point five percent shooting, which 790 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 1: is by far the lowest percentage in the league. Forty 791 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:27,920 Speaker 1: three point five. This is NBA players shooting at the rim. 792 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 1: That is an insane stat. In fact, Draymond Green is 793 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 1: the only other player to hold anyone under fifty percent, 794 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:36,800 Speaker 1: Brook Lopez coming in fifth overall, but it's over fifty, 795 00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:38,840 Speaker 1: so that just shows Jaron Jackson Junior. He's just a 796 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:41,120 Speaker 1: menace in there. He's averaging three point three blocks per game, 797 00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:42,919 Speaker 1: that's best in the league. He only plays twenty seven 798 00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:46,240 Speaker 1: minutes per game. He ranks first in defensive rating, twelfth 799 00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:47,920 Speaker 1: in defensive win. Shares a part of that because he 800 00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:50,279 Speaker 1: missed a bunch of time. But the Grizzlies task They 801 00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:53,399 Speaker 1: have the number one defense, which I think helps Jaron 802 00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:56,520 Speaker 1: Jackson Junior's case. Now, the one reason you could go, well, 803 00:36:56,560 --> 00:37:00,360 Speaker 1: what about Bam over Jaron Jackson Junior is he's played eight. 804 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:04,120 Speaker 2: Hundred more minutes BAM, Like, so yeah, BAM, Yeah. 805 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:06,840 Speaker 1: Jared Jackson Junior is time and then when he plays, 806 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:09,080 Speaker 1: he still can be a little foul prone and doesn't 807 00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:12,840 Speaker 1: play as many minutes in games as someone like BAM. 808 00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:16,480 Speaker 1: So that's a lot of minutes. Like that's that's pretty significant. 809 00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:19,720 Speaker 1: And BAM is BAM to me when I watch games 810 00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:22,239 Speaker 1: is when I go, oh, he's actually defensive player of 811 00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 1: the Year. Like to me, he's like a souped up 812 00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:28,000 Speaker 1: og an Anobi and just the impact he can have 813 00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:30,160 Speaker 1: on shutting guys down, and it's just like he can 814 00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:33,200 Speaker 1: take guys completely out of games. But I do think 815 00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 1: Jared Jackson Junior, you know, at the three quarter mark here, 816 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:37,920 Speaker 1: three point three blocks per game is a hell of 817 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:39,839 Speaker 1: a lot of blocks in just twenty seven minutes per game, 818 00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:42,400 Speaker 1: and they're the number one defense and he's when he 819 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:44,279 Speaker 1: came back, he impacted them and got them back up 820 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:45,240 Speaker 1: into that number one spot. 821 00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:47,480 Speaker 2: So oh yeah, I think I think you're alluding to 822 00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:50,319 Speaker 2: with BAM there. I think he's always overlooked in this 823 00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:52,960 Speaker 2: department and he's had a tougher job I think than 824 00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:55,839 Speaker 2: Jaron Jacksons Junior because Jared Jackson Junior quite often plays 825 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:58,560 Speaker 2: with Steven Adams. Yeah, and and I think that's why 826 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:00,960 Speaker 2: he's probably played fewer minutes. He can stay on the 827 00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:03,520 Speaker 2: floor when Steven Adams is on the floor. But Steven 828 00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:06,000 Speaker 2: as has been hurt, so his minutes could go up 829 00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:08,480 Speaker 2: a little bit. But Bam is the guy for the heat. 830 00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:11,319 Speaker 2: You know, he has to protect the middle because of 831 00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:13,279 Speaker 2: who they play at the four, while Jared Jackson Junior 832 00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:16,200 Speaker 2: has you know, a friend, a guy helping helping him out. 833 00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:18,960 Speaker 2: It's a little like yiannisim Brook Lopez over the last 834 00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:22,080 Speaker 2: few years. Yeah, Bam, he's kind of like the embiid 835 00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:23,920 Speaker 2: of the MVP when it comes to Defensive Player of 836 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:25,600 Speaker 2: the Year. He's kind of gets screwed when it comes 837 00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:27,600 Speaker 2: to this award. Last year, he's fourth. Year before that, 838 00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 2: he's fourth year before that, he's fifth. I don't know 839 00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:32,080 Speaker 2: if he'll ever win it, but he might get second, 840 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:35,080 Speaker 2: but I think he might. Like if you're picking one 841 00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:40,799 Speaker 2: guy to be your defender in the paint, I think 842 00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:42,720 Speaker 2: it's Bamed because you know he'll stay on the floor. 843 00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 1: Well, well that's interesting in the paint, I'm not picking Bam. 844 00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:48,759 Speaker 1: And for the whole fact that Brooke and Jared Jackson Junior. 845 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,759 Speaker 1: They're just bigger dudes. Bam is not that big when 846 00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:53,440 Speaker 1: it comes to a center position, like he's six', nine 847 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:55,839 Speaker 1: but that makes him incredible like, switchability and they can 848 00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:58,840 Speaker 1: actually play guys on the perimeter a little, bit whereas 849 00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:01,560 Speaker 1: those Guys brook and Jack, junior they just like good 850 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:04,520 Speaker 1: luck shooting over them inside Like BAM's, numbers like at 851 00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:06,640 Speaker 1: the rim or, not they're not gonna blow you. Away 852 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:08,520 Speaker 1: BECAUSE i think a part of this is because he's six' 853 00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:11,040 Speaker 1: nine and maybe he's like a bit of a like 854 00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:12,759 Speaker 1: a smarter defender in the sense, like yeah he's not 855 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:14,600 Speaker 1: gonna try and get in foul trouble and Maybe Like Jaron, 856 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:17,120 Speaker 1: jackson junior he's gonna try and. Block everything but that 857 00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:19,520 Speaker 1: gets in, people's heads like That's How rudy gobert one 858 00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:21,480 Speaker 1: a lot of, These two like you can get guys 859 00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:22,920 Speaker 1: when they go in there for their floaters and are at, 860 00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 1: the rim there's second guess and they're they're wondering where 861 00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:27,279 Speaker 1: the hell that, guy is and you know that's a 862 00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:29,520 Speaker 1: that's a hell of A skill. I HAVE but I. 863 00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:31,440 Speaker 1: LOVE bam I, love BAM and i am not upset 864 00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:33,120 Speaker 1: if people are like it SHOULD, be bam it should FINALLY. 865 00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:35,759 Speaker 1: Be BAM but I Think Jaron jackson junior is the 866 00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:38,920 Speaker 1: front runner.

The year currently fourteen points, per 905 00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:17,880 Speaker 4: game four assists, per game as well shooting forty eight 906 00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:19,960 Speaker 4: percent from, the field forty six from three to eighty 907 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:22,640 Speaker 4: eight from the free. Throw line And if i'm, being 908 00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:25,040 Speaker 4: honest this is a little bit of a full bench 909 00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:29,840 Speaker 4: nod Too From. Malcolm brogden as the captain Of the. 910 00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:33,520 Speaker 4: Celtics bench they're a pretty. Deep team everybody shows up 911 00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:36,560 Speaker 4: to play anytime they get called on uh and the 912 00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:38,600 Speaker 4: vibes seem to be good For the celtics despite the 913 00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:41,560 Speaker 4: fact that they have a very. Deep rotation So gimme 914 00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:45,319 Speaker 4: brogden Barely Over, norm POWELL who i think has been 915 00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:48,880 Speaker 4: the Most reliable clipper. This season sixteen points, per game 916 00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:51,920 Speaker 4: just a couple assists because he wants to score first. 917 00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:56,040 Speaker 4: And foremost he's forty seven forty one eighty shooting percentages 918 00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:59,640 Speaker 4: very good. As well bringing up the rear in my ballot, 919 00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:04,920 Speaker 4: Number Three emmanuel quickly is the man for me in. 920 00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:07,520 Speaker 3: Number three thirteen points, per game three assists. 921 00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:10,000 Speaker 4: Per game percentages, are okay forty four from, the field 922 00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:12,560 Speaker 4: thirty six from three to eighty two at. The line 923 00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:16,040 Speaker 4: but he brings the best defense off the bench of 924 00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:18,600 Speaker 4: these candidates that we're. Listed HERE so i Like what 925 00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:20,719 Speaker 4: quickly has done For the knicks. THIS season i don't 926 00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:24,120 Speaker 4: think it's a coincidence that they have turned the corner 927 00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:27,480 Speaker 4: once he started playing more and joining their. Closing lineups 928 00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:30,520 Speaker 4: so that's. My Ballot Brogden, Powell quickly you've. 929 00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:32,960 Speaker 1: Got, it, one. Two three according To The, Vegas odds 930 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:36,880 Speaker 1: brogden the odds on favorite, Right now powell second, quickly 931 00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:40,279 Speaker 1: third and then some love For A tyrese maxi there 932 00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:44,279 Speaker 1: but at a plus sixteen hundred to be quite the. 933 00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:45,920 Speaker 1: Long shot what do you think you agree with? 934 00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:48,960 Speaker 2: That, List yeah brogden is the best player off, The 935 00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:52,479 Speaker 2: bench there's. NO doubt i kind of miss the days 936 00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:55,160 Speaker 2: of just going with. The Score norman powell has been 937 00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:58,840 Speaker 2: the best score off the bench. This season his numbers 938 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:00,880 Speaker 2: just off the bench seven ten and a half points, 939 00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:03,919 Speaker 2: per game the highest number in. The league the percentages 940 00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 2: off the bench forty nine and. Forty Three But, broggy 941 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:10,080 Speaker 2: doggy of course he's going to. Be efficient he was 942 00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:13,080 Speaker 2: efficient as the fourth option With The milwaukee bucks before 943 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:15,080 Speaker 2: they let him Go, to indiana where his career has 944 00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:17,000 Speaker 2: kind of gone on a. Roller coaster he was a 945 00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:19,959 Speaker 2: fifty forty ninety guy With. The bucks so now he's 946 00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:23,359 Speaker 2: forty nine and, forty six fourteen and a. Half points 947 00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:25,520 Speaker 2: he's the. Better players he's the guy you want running your, 948 00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:28,680 Speaker 2: second unit and that's why they're. So good he just 949 00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:31,080 Speaker 2: Had a february where he shot fifty three percent. From 950 00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 2: deep they're feeling it there, for, Sure MAN and i 951 00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:38,839 Speaker 2: Think the vegas Odds has Broggy. Over powell those will 952 00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:45,200 Speaker 2: probably get even even More towards Brogden because powell's got 953 00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:46,759 Speaker 2: so many guys coming off the bench with him now 954 00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:49,480 Speaker 2: it hurts. His case now that They've Got, eric gordon 955 00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:53,640 Speaker 2: They've Got, bones island they brought In. A westbrook the 956 00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:57,240 Speaker 2: statement you said that he's been their most reliable player 957 00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:00,880 Speaker 2: On the clippers, is yeah regardless, Of starting it's. Totally 958 00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:04,680 Speaker 2: true he's there every stink. In GAME but I guess 959 00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:05,399 Speaker 2: broggy's a. Better. 960 00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:08,160 Speaker 1: Player though, those odds the shifting Odds on powell of 961 00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:10,279 Speaker 1: even started to change at some of the some of 962 00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:13,040 Speaker 1: the Books where quickly has actually passed him as as the, 963 00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:15,640 Speaker 1: second favorite but brogged in the odds on favorite minus 964 00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:18,279 Speaker 1: two hundred at. Most places uh and, then yeah Then 965 00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:21,640 Speaker 1: a Powell or Quickly and maxie again like a. Long shot, 966 00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:25,920 Speaker 1: You Know bobby portish an extreme. Long shot the injury 967 00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:27,879 Speaker 1: really took him out of the. RUNNING here i don't 968 00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:29,600 Speaker 1: think he was ever gonna win.
