Oh, here's a three. Here's a 179 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 3: big assist coming off. He's such a complete player, and 180 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 3: he's twenty six and you're looking you're searching for something 181 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 3: if you're looking for somebody else other than him, who 182 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 3: can be the face of the league. Right he's the 183 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 3: newly minted MVP. He's going to the NBA Finals, They're 184 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 3: going to win. He's doing it in the small market. 185 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 1: So hey, I love SGA because it's not like I 186 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 1: got to watch a Nick win or a Laker win. 187 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 1: And you have the built in animosity that other fan 188 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 1: bases have for bigger markets, every single box you want 189 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 1: to check for face the league, SGA's got and I 190 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 1: hope this is his moment and this is the guy 191 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 1: we talk about for face of the league more than 192 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 1: we talk about all Anthony Edwards. No, he's not Michael 193 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: j He's not even close, not even close. But he's 194 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: a really good players, a great player, not even close 195 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 1: to Michael Jordan. What Gilgess Alexander does, people are going 196 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 1: to start gaining more of a an appreciation for. But 197 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 1: seeing him and knowing him and seeing his journey and 198 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: what he does. Yeah, he's the guy that's the face 199 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: of the league in the NBA. 200 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, when we look at the the Edwards side of it, 201 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 5: you know, you reference the everybody wanted him to be 202 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:41,199 Speaker 5: Jordan and all of that. 203 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 3: Some similarities. 204 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 5: Jordan never disappeared in games and it was passive as 205 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 5: we've seen and we've talked about with Edwards the last 206 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:54,199 Speaker 5: couple of weeks really because you've seen it rear its 207 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 5: head in a couple of series. But it's the idea 208 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 5: of the explosiveness the highlight reel play is they get 209 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:04,080 Speaker 5: to the rack and do something miraculous, which is great 210 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 5: for highlight shows, which is great for x great for 211 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 5: clips and whatever else. What he's got to do now 212 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,559 Speaker 5: is the evolution of what Jordan became. Right, I could 213 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 5: back you down on the low post and do the 214 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 5: turnaround I can take. 215 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 3: You in the mid range, or I can take you 216 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:18,840 Speaker 3: to the outside. 217 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 5: And doesn't mean he doesn't chuck three point shots, but 218 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 5: one to seven tonight in a game where you needed 219 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 5: him and a number of wide open looks that didn't fall, 220 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 5: controlling a game, et cetera. And that's what SGA does 221 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 5: right today, only four file attempts fall free throw attempts. Right, 222 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 5: didn't have to be the merchant because they came out 223 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 5: and they blew them out. 224 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 3: But in the timberwolves quit, so it's easy to get 225 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 3: to the hoop well. 226 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 5: But also you know you're looking at Yeah, you didn't 227 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 5: have the big contested shots, but finishes with a near 228 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 5: triple double. Again the quiet something we've talked about. Thirty 229 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 5: four points, you just can pencil it in. Right, he's 230 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:00,439 Speaker 5: not gonna know show on you. The fourteen point game 231 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 5: was an all around disaster. Earlier in the round where 232 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 5: they were done right, that was the Saturday Night forty 233 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 5: two point burial. Just shove that one, burn the film, 234 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:16,680 Speaker 5: whatever you're gonna do with it. But all of the 235 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 5: other boxes are there, you know, ex clipper, So you 236 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:23,319 Speaker 5: could say he was in the big, big market adjacent 237 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 5: See what I did to the pokers there, but he 238 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,320 Speaker 5: goes to Oka, see and the thing that helps him is, 239 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:33,080 Speaker 5: now you've got a squad that maybe can buck the 240 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 5: trend at the NBA scene where we've had parody winners 241 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 5: every year. 242 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 3: But they've now got an. 243 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:43,720 Speaker 5: Organization assuming they take care of business with four more wins. 244 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,839 Speaker 5: And I think we both agree, whoever walks through, maybe 245 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 5: they get one. Maybe they can steal a second if 246 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 5: it's the Pacers, maybe wishing, wanting, hoping, But all of 247 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 5: that to say, you've got an organization that should be 248 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:58,679 Speaker 5: here for the long haul, barring some something out of 249 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 5: left field. Got your core signed up, all young to 250 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 5: your point, like he's a year and a half older 251 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 5: out of than a lot of these guys that. 252 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 3: Are coming out of college. 253 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 5: Yeah this year, right, you got your Cooper flags on 254 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 5: one end of the spectrum. 255 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 3: Then you got the. 256 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 5: Last of the the COVID years and COVID runs where 257 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 5: guys are coming out like we saw with the NFL 258 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 5: Draft where they're twenty three, twenty four to twenty five. 259 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 3: Shake Gildess, Alexander. We've watched him grow. 260 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 5: Now he's a thirty point game score, and there's a reputation, 261 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 5: and for the Thunder, I think the love of what 262 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 5: the organization is built from basketball people will help push 263 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,599 Speaker 5: it a bit. For the general public, it takes a 264 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 5: little bit of doing right. MVP award is now you 265 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 5: check that box, but you're always looking for those steps 266 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 5: in growth, just like we used to with teams, right, 267 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 5: you always had that someone standing in the way. Jordan 268 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 5: had the pistons and all of those kind of things 269 00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:59,840 Speaker 5: that for SGA, it's there because it's such a fractured environment. 270 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 5: Lebron's on his way out, polarizing as he is, which 271 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:06,320 Speaker 5: means there's certain folks that don't want to leave that 272 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 5: mantle on him, even if it's still his steph older 273 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 5: guy as well beloved and still probably your face for 274 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:14,839 Speaker 5: another year or two. 275 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 3: But then it becomes all right, who's next? Not Duran. 276 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 5: It's not hard like all of those guys are aging out. 277 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:23,440 Speaker 5: So when you look to the young guys, yeah, Edwards 278 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:27,320 Speaker 5: was a natural pick, running to the Western Conference finals 279 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:30,080 Speaker 5: a year ago before being vested by Luca. But then 280 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 5: you get into some of the xenophobic stuff that gets 281 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:38,559 Speaker 5: into this argument too, unfortunately, is where it goes. But SGA, 282 00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 5: he's Canadian. So he's close enough, I think, well, and 283 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 5: you talk about, hey, can he sustain the face lead? 284 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,080 Speaker 5: Because you want to win, you want to keep playing. Well, 285 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,080 Speaker 5: you got to keep playing big national games. And yeah, 286 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,320 Speaker 5: you got chet Holmgrin and Jayalen Williams still in their 287 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:54,320 Speaker 5: rookie contracts another year or two, right, you sign Hartenstein, right, 288 00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:59,599 Speaker 5: and you figured out the other ancillary pieces. You know, 289 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,679 Speaker 5: Loud is an All NBA defensive player. And look, Alex 290 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:06,200 Speaker 5: Caruso is a guy beloved by everybody. Every fan base 291 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 5: will say he's a key to winning a championship. Like, 292 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 5: you have everything you need for for probably I would 293 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 5: say another. 294 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:14,960 Speaker 1: Three year window. A three year window. You got this 295 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:16,840 Speaker 1: year and maybe two or three more. Right before you 296 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,720 Speaker 1: start making decisions. Okay, well we can, we can extend 297 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 1: Chat and give him the money, but what do we 298 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 1: do for Williams or you know, however you wanted to 299 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:25,559 Speaker 1: figure it out. You figure you got a two to 300 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,559 Speaker 1: three year window here with what's going on before. Okay, 301 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 1: there's gonna be overhaul and there's gonna be a turnover 302 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 1: the roster because certain guys are gonna get. 303 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 3: Too expensive and they're gonna want to move on. 304 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 1: And you can't afford to pay Caruso this money when 305 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: somebody else is gonna say, no, we want you to 306 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,440 Speaker 1: be our seventh guy. And here's a bunch of money. 307 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:45,319 Speaker 1: So you know he's in a place, he has everything 308 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 1: in place for him to be the face of the 309 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 1: league what should be. But like, look at all the 310 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,320 Speaker 1: other teams that would be challengers. All of them have 311 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 1: giant question marks. Right the Celtics. People were trying to 312 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,560 Speaker 1: break them up before they won their title. And now 313 00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 1: Tatum's hurt. Yeah, so when he's gonna play the end 314 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 1: of next. 315 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 5: Yme Nick's giant question mark, which we've talked about a lot. 316 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 5: We will again tomorrow in what might be a very 317 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 5: interesting four. 318 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 3: Hours with Jason.

Going in like like no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. 468 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:58,199 Speaker 1: Intelligence is you know obviously when you think about all 469 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 1: the stuff with AI going on and everybody's where he's 470 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 1: going to take away jobs and everything else. And I 471 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:07,240 Speaker 1: understand that, but I read something yesterday where I think 472 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,679 Speaker 1: we may actually have the power over AI and we 473 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:11,439 Speaker 1: could win a war. It doesn't have to be cyber 474 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 1: a cyber net taking over, a sky net taking over 475 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:16,800 Speaker 1: and uh and all of a sudden, we're fighting robots 476 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 1: in about twenty five years. 477 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:19,879 Speaker 3: Like, it doesn't have to be that to be that. 478 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 1: Because after I went to see Mission Impossible, there was 479 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 1: a big thing on I think it was a big 480 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:27,160 Speaker 1: Reddit thread that then went that then went h went 481 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 1: viral where a guy was talking about, you know, ving Rams, 482 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 1: who was in all the Mission Impossible movies. And this 483 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 1: guy puts out a blog post and he says, you know, 484 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 1: I don't know why why was ving Rams not in 485 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 1: Mission Impossible three? I don't know why he was in 486 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,199 Speaker 1: all the other ones? I don't understand. And and he 487 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 1: looked and he went on AI and said why wasn't 488 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 1: ving Rams and Mission Impossible three? And and AI had 489 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,119 Speaker 1: the screenshot and everything, and it said, oh, some of 490 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:53,919 Speaker 1: the reasons could be a scheduling conflict with another movie. 491 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 3: It could be a money dispute. 492 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 1: All of these things, like oh, okay, And then the 493 00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 1: guy said, so then I went back and watched Mission 494 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 1: Impossible three, and he was in it. I just forgot 495 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,400 Speaker 1: that he was in it, right, because Mission Impossible three 496 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 1: doesn't really feature Benji and Ving Rains that much because 497 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:09,879 Speaker 1: it's it's so much with him and Owen Davian and 498 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 1: Billy Crudep and so it's like, okay, so now I 499 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 1: feel like, wait a minute. So he went to AI 500 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 1: and the answer should have been Ving Raims was in 501 00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:20,639 Speaker 1: Mission Impossible three, yeah, But instead it just gave him 502 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 1: reasons why he wasn't in it. No, No, he was 503 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 1: actually in it. So here's AI maybe not as smart 504 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:25,640 Speaker 1: as you think. 505 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:27,880 Speaker 5: Well, the other thing you do is you don't give 506 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 5: it a sustaining battery.

What's next 750 00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:23,040 Speaker 1: now for Ann Edwards? All right, last couple nights talked 751 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 1: about how he was not ready to be the face league, 752 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:28,320 Speaker 1: not ready to take responsibility for bad nights nights and 753 00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:30,040 Speaker 1: only takes thirteen shots. 754 00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:31,960 Speaker 3: But I want to be positive. I want to help 755 00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,200 Speaker 3: the guy. Oh good, you're gonna help him make the 756 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:35,479 Speaker 3: right basketball play. 757 00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 1: I am going to help him make a move that 758 00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:42,040 Speaker 1: could potentially get him to that next level where he 759 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 1: could be considered as being the face League and not 760 00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:47,359 Speaker 1: someone who disappears in an NBA playoff series and won't 761 00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:49,680 Speaker 1: take responsibility for Oh gay I like this, yeah so, 762 00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:52,160 Speaker 1: And it kind of hit me after we talked to 763 00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:54,920 Speaker 1: Rick Buker last night where we talked about him and 764 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:59,040 Speaker 1: him not really getting into a game and pushing things offensively, 765 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:02,680 Speaker 1: and Rick gave us this, which may be the biggest 766 00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:05,239 Speaker 1: thing about and Edwards that maybe not a lot of 767 00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:06,080 Speaker 1: people knew. 768 00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:09,840 Speaker 7: Like sometimes he can't read the defense. He needs Dante 769 00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:13,279 Speaker 7: to tell him, Donte Defintendo to tell him what the 770 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:16,120 Speaker 7: defense is doing and how they're playing. Like that is 771 00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:23,760 Speaker 7: that is the most alarming admission by a star player 772 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:27,680 Speaker 7: that I can recall ever hearing in my life. I mean, 773 00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:30,640 Speaker 7: we're talking about we're comparing this guy to Michael Jordan's 774 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:33,239 Speaker 7: and he can't read defenses. And if you can't read 775 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:36,719 Speaker 7: the defense and it looks the floor looks muddy, you're 776 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:40,600 Speaker 7: going to be tentive, intentative. You're going to like not 777 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:42,960 Speaker 7: be sure of where you can go, and if you can't, 778 00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:46,880 Speaker 7: you can't like or from the mid range. That all 779 00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:49,040 Speaker 7: you're looking for is is there a path for me 780 00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:52,520 Speaker 7: to get to the rim? And if there isn't, again, 781 00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:56,040 Speaker 7: that's what's going to make a guy hesitant or tentative. 782 00:36:56,920 --> 00:36:59,719 Speaker 1: So amazing insight by Rick Bucker with this, because this 783 00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:02,120 Speaker 1: eventually explains a little bit of Ann Edwards and the 784 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 1: passivity that we've talked about him having too much. Oh, 785 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:08,800 Speaker 1: I don't see the recognize the defenses. What he needs 786 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:12,320 Speaker 1: and what would help him is he needs a quote 787 00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:15,520 Speaker 1: and all capital letters, a conversation with a Hall of famer, 788 00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 1: and Shaq would be great guy for this because Shaq 789 00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:21,239 Speaker 1: can say, listen, I got to the point in my 790 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 1: career where I knew, hey, I had a great first 791 00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:26,120 Speaker 1: few years with Orlando, and I was in movies and 792 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:28,280 Speaker 1: I was a big deal, but I knew my legacy 793 00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:30,279 Speaker 1: was going to be something, so I needed to make 794 00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:32,400 Speaker 1: sure I put myself position to succeed right. 795 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:33,839 Speaker 3: So he, you know. 796 00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:37,239 Speaker 1: Gets out of Orlando, gets to LA, they build the 797 00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:38,960 Speaker 1: team around him. He's got the right head coach and 798 00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:41,759 Speaker 1: Phil Jackson we want and he wins three titles back 799 00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:43,719 Speaker 1: to back to back, whens another one with the Miami Heat, 800 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:47,279 Speaker 1: and his legacy is secure. It's different because it's not 801 00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:50,799 Speaker 1: quite Ann Edwards, but with what he needs is he 802 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 1: needs that conversation where a Hall of famer who gets 803 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:56,719 Speaker 1: his ear can say you have to understand you need 804 00:37:56,719 --> 00:37:59,480 Speaker 1: to do more. If you can't read the defenses, you 805 00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:01,480 Speaker 1: need to be in the film room and you got 806 00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 1: to read him until you know him right. You can't 807 00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:06,279 Speaker 1: rely on asking your teammate what it is you have 808 00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:09,440 Speaker 1: to do more. You need to be able to accomplish 809 00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:11,560 Speaker 1: more in this game to get to that next level. 810 00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:13,960 Speaker 1: And this is where the light switch has to go 811 00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:16,680 Speaker 1: on for you've been getting by with great athletic ability, 812 00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:19,799 Speaker 1: a great feel for the game, great reactions, great reflexes, 813 00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:22,279 Speaker 1: and clearly in the moment of play, he can do it. 814 00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:25,520 Speaker 1: When he can out physical you, he is fantastic. But 815 00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:29,439 Speaker 1: he doesn't quite know when to take over or how 816 00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:31,839 Speaker 1: to take over and how to be more consistent. And 817 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:34,520 Speaker 1: it hasn't happened by now, and he's not taking responsibility 818 00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:36,600 Speaker 1: after a game. And that's why when he said that 819 00:38:36,640 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 1: after the game end that I don't look like it 820 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:38,840 Speaker 1: as I struggled. 821 00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:41,080 Speaker 3: Dude, you struggled in a large way. Man, Are you kidding? 822 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:43,920 Speaker 1: This is why he needs a conversation with someone who 823 00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:46,920 Speaker 1: he respects that can say listen, I get it, and 824 00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:48,920 Speaker 1: this is the best way. You need to understand that 825 00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:51,000 Speaker 1: you need to do more, and that's where the light 826 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:52,920 Speaker 1: switch has to go on for me. It's okay, it 827 00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:55,400 Speaker 1: is more film work, it is being more of a leader. 828 00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 1: Whatever it is, that special thing, that intangible that you need. 829 00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:01,520 Speaker 1: It could be hard work, could be understanding. There's more 830 00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:04,800 Speaker 1: responsibility than I have. But he a conversation with someone 831 00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:07,200 Speaker 1: that could have his ear. And in five years from now, 832 00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:10,000 Speaker 1: we're reading an ESPN dot com article right before the 833 00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 1: finals where it says, the conversation with Shack change my life? 834 00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:15,160 Speaker 1: Whoever else changed my life? Like that could be the 835 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:16,399 Speaker 1: biggest thing he needs in the office. 836 00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:19,279 Speaker 5: It could just be that magic Johnson tweet that read 837 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:20,400 Speaker 5: a little bit before. 838 00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:22,200 Speaker 3: I don't know, but you know. 839 00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:26,000 Speaker 5: Some of it goes to the comparisons coming out of 840 00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:26,480 Speaker 5: last year. 841 00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:29,480 Speaker 3: Where is he gonna be Jordan? Right, we're always looking for. 842 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:32,520 Speaker 5: The next Well, what was the thing on Michael Jordan's 843 00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:37,160 Speaker 5: starting his career? Scored a bunch, didn't win start. Everything 844 00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:43,080 Speaker 5: was driving to the basket, overpowering out out athleticism, right, 845 00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:46,400 Speaker 5: was the big thing.
