1
00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:04,360
Speaker 1: Hi, I'm Sloan.

2
00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:10,440
Speaker 2: I'm fourteen and I know the NBA. On today's show,

3
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:13,319
Speaker 2: when this former NBA player was my age, he dreamt

4
00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:16,400
Speaker 2: of playing in his hometown, or Orlando, Florida, and he

5
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 2: did today on Sloan Nos, I'm talking to Chandler Parsons

6
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:22,920
Speaker 2: about who he was at fourteen and who he thinks

7
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,040
Speaker 2: is the best NBA style and a ton one.

8
00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:31,360
Speaker 1: Okay, this is Sloan Nos. So everyone knows.

9
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:33,959
Speaker 2: You as Chandler Parsons, the NBA player, but I'm more

10
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:36,680
Speaker 2: curious to know who Chandler Parsons, the fourteen year old

11
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:37,839
Speaker 2: in middle school was.

12
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 3: So you know what's interesting is fourteen for me, that

13
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:43,400
Speaker 3: was kind of when my life kind of changed. So

14
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:45,720
Speaker 3: my whole life. I grew up in Orlando, Florida. I

15
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 3: was the youngest of flour boys. I played baseball and

16
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 3: I was pretty good at what national championship three years

17
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:52,839
Speaker 3: in a row. I played all around the country on

18
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 3: this travel team. And the high school my brothers went,

19
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:58,760
Speaker 3: their basketball program was awful and none of them really

20
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:01,360
Speaker 3: played They all played baseball. And so when I was

21
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:03,440
Speaker 3: fourteen was kind of that time in my life where

22
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 3: you know, I started having gross spurds. I started things

23
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 3: started happening in my body, and baseball I wasn't very good.

24
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 3: I was I can kind of see myself falling off right,

25
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,319
Speaker 3: And so I started playing basketball at the park and

26
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 3: literally just one thing led to another where, you know,

27
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 3: my freshman year of high school, when I was fourteen

28
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:25,840
Speaker 3: years old, I had made varsity baseball but JV basketball,

29
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 3: and I just remember I was like, man, I spent

30
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 3: so much time my whole childhood, and it's all I

31
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 3: knew was baseball growing up till I was fourteen now,

32
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:36,480
Speaker 3: and I'm even still better at it currently, but I

33
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 3: liked basketball so much more, and I was so burnt

34
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 3: out of baseball to where I remember I went to

35
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,720
Speaker 3: one game and my mom I didn't start, and my

36
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 3: mom was livid and she literally like pulled me out

37
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 3: of the lock of the dugout and was like, you're

38
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 3: playing basketball now, as baseball program is horrible, like folk,

39
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 3: And I was growing. I was growing at like a

40
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 3: rapid pace. Would how I went from like six foot

41
00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 3: to six five and like three months and a size

42
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 3: twelve shoo to fifteen shoe like and it was the

43
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 3: most gnarly gross for ever and so that was when

44
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 3: when I was fourteen, that's when I started really focusing

45
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 3: and kind of my life started being all about basketball,

46
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 3: kind of finishing up eighth grade going into high schools

47
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 3: where I started really focusing in and narrowing it on basketball.

48
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:16,639
Speaker 2: When you were fourteen, did you think that you could

49
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 2: play in the NBA or that wasn't even a thought.

50
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 3: No chance, no chance. I just honestly, I just wanted

51
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 3: to make the team. I probably just wanted to, you know,

52
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:25,919
Speaker 3: be on varsity, to get girls and to look cool.

53
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 3: And I loved it. Right. I grew up in Orlando.

54
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 3: He was the biggest Orlando Magic fan. That's definitely not

55
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 3: a fun team, no, but I would always watch and

56
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 3: like back in the day when I was growing up,

57
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 3: like Shack and Penny, that team. They were nasty. So

58
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,919
Speaker 3: I would watch the game on my house growing up,

59
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 3: and during a time out, whatever I would see, I'd

60
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 3: go out to my backyard and I would try and

61
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 3: react it, like reenact it and do everything they just did.

62
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 3: So I kind of like I always dreamt of like

63
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:51,640
Speaker 3: Man one day, but I thought those guys were aliens.

64
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 3: I thought it was so far away. I never could

65
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 3: imagine myself making the NBA.

66
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 1: Who was like your idol when you were fourteen?

67
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 3: So that was kind of like when I started getting

68
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 3: into basketball. Love those magic teams. I'd love Shack and Penny,

69
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 3: and I had always loved Dirk Naviski, which full circle.

70
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 3: I ended up playing with him for two years in Dallas,

71
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,960
Speaker 3: which was unbelievable, Like he's coming to my wedding in October,

72
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 3: like it's now he's my boy. But yeah, I wore

73
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 3: there was one year in elementary school where I wore

74
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 3: a Dirk jersey in my yearbook picture and I wore

75
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 3: Vince Carter jersey and my yearbook pictures and I ended

76
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:20,359
Speaker 3: up playing with both of them.

77
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 1: Did you show them those?

78
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 3: Oh for sure? Yeah it was really cool.

79
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 1: That's so cool. Well, what was the thing that you

80
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:27,359
Speaker 1: remember most about middle school?

81
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 3: Like?

82
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 1: Did you like it? I mean, I'm sure if you

83
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:31,359
Speaker 1: were six ' five it was pretty fun for you.

84
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,519
Speaker 3: Yeah. Well I wasn't six ' five quite yet, but yeah,

85
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 3: I mean middle school. I just remember like it was

86
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 3: walking distance from my parents' house and everywhere. It was

87
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 3: just like a big neighborhood like camp every single day.

88
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 3: Like I loved middle school. I was never a big

89
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 3: school guy. I really hated school, but I always was

90
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 3: loved sports. I always was active. I was always playing

91
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 3: in like the intramural volleyball tournaments or dodgeball, whatever it

92
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 3: was that week. And it was always hard for me

93
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 3: to like pay attention in class, But whenever it was

94
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 3: sports related, I was next level, like dial could you know.

95
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 3: I could tell you any offensive set or defensive coverage,

96
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 3: and it just came to me easy when, for whatever reason,

97
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 3: when it was sports related.

98
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 2: What was your dream college at fourteen? Did you always

99
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 2: want to go to the University of Florida?

100
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 3: I did. I had always wanted to go there. I

101
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 3: grew up an hour and a half south of Gainesville,

102
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 3: and so I was always the biggest SCA fans. I

103
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 3: would actually go to camps there when I was younger.

104
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,240
Speaker 3: I would go to Billy Donovan basketball camps. My schools

105
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:23,160
Speaker 3: would go to team.

106
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,360
Speaker 1: Camps on to all the like UCLA soccer camps.

107
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 3: Is that where you want to go to UCLA?

108
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 2: I don't know, because like I think I want to

109
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,599
Speaker 2: leave LA because I think I'm going to come back here, yeah,

110
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:31,279
Speaker 2: when I'm an adult.

111
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 1: So I feel like for those four years I might.

112
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 3: As well go, but UCLA over USC Yeah, probably better area.

113
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 2: Okay, So when you were fourteen, Like, what were you

114
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,719
Speaker 2: scared of because I feel like you were this big guy,

115
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 2: played baseball, you played basketball, Like, what were your biggest series, Like.

116
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 1: I'm petrified pigeons.

117
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 2: Pigeons, Yeah, which I feel like is like maybe like

118
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 2: a kid thing, definitely.

119
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, I've never been into clowns. Hated clowns, and

120
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,159
Speaker 3: like people growing up, people always have clowns at their parties,

121
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 3: and I think it's freaky and I think it's weird.

122
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 3: I think there's no place for clowns. Honestly, growing up

123
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 3: with four boys, like, I think that's really what helped

124
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,159
Speaker 3: me pave my career too, is I was the youngest

125
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,799
Speaker 3: of four big dudes, so like I was always playing

126
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 3: with kids older than me. I was always playing against bigger,

127
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,279
Speaker 3: stronger guys to where I would play against kids my

128
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 3: own age and this is easy, Like this is coming

129
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 3: so easy because I'm so used to my brother's just

130
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 3: picking on me and beating me up. So honestly, I

131
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 3: was more scared of them than pigeons or clowns.

132
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,479
Speaker 2: But I feel like with the clown now that you're

133
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 2: like a grown man you could just walk up through.

134
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, now there's no beef with clowns.

135
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:31,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, you definitely have a height advantage.

136
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I got it.

137
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 2: Now that we know who you were when you were fourteen,

138
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 2: let's talk about now. So what do you think fourteen

139
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,680
Speaker 2: year old you would think about current channel Parsons.

140
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:43,479
Speaker 3: I think they would not believe it. The kind of

141
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 3: career I had, who I've become growing up where I

142
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,839
Speaker 3: grew up, that doesn't really happen often. And just you know,

143
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 3: to really say that I fulfilled and lived out my

144
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 3: dream is really awesome. And you know I played nine

145
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,720
Speaker 3: years in the NBA and I played four years at

146
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,719
Speaker 3: my dream college, getting inducted into the Hall of Fame,

147
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,479
Speaker 3: University of Florida in October. So yeah, I think they'd

148
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 3: be really proud. I think they'd be really hyped.

149
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,039
Speaker 2: Do you ever when every you were in the middle

150
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:09,920
Speaker 2: of a game, did you ever just like think and

151
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 2: like look around me, like this is so surreal?

152
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,479
Speaker 1: Like when I was a kid, I would not.

153
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, you have those moments. It's usually you have the

154
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:18,680
Speaker 3: moments like going up against someone like I said when

155
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 3: I when I signed in Dallas and I played with

156
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 3: Dirk or whatever Atlanta when I play with Vince Carter.

157
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,040
Speaker 3: Those were those moments where, even though that was later

158
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 3: in my career, where I was like, man, this is nuts.

159
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,919
Speaker 3: And then my first two years, I'm going up against

160
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 3: like Kobe and Kevin Garnett and I used to have

161
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,520
Speaker 3: posters on my wall against these guys, and now it's

162
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 3: just kind of this full circle where I'm competing against

163
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 3: them and I'm trying to, you know, do well against them.

164
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,159
Speaker 3: So it's definitely surreal. But I think once you're in

165
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 3: the heat of it, and once you're competing, all that

166
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:47,039
Speaker 3: stuff kind of goes away.

167
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 2: Speaking of that, what was like you're welcome to the

168
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:51,280
Speaker 2: league moment, you know what I was.

169
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 3: I loved the Celtics growing up, so right on draft

170
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 3: day when I got drafted, to coach and the GM

171
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,839
Speaker 3: of the Houston Rockets was Kevin McHale, and I loved

172
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 3: I loved Robert Parris, I love Larry Bird. So like

173
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 3: the first phone call on draft night that I got

174
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,680
Speaker 3: was from like another like kind of childhood hero that

175
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 3: I had watched up and him calling me on my

176
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 3: cell phone telling me that they're drafting me and spending

177
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,080
Speaker 3: millions of dollars on me was kind of surreal.

178
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's crazy. And also was it even like surreal

179
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 2: when you played the Magic for.

180
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 1: The first time?

181
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 3: Yeah? That was That was probably honestly the most nervous

182
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,440
Speaker 3: I had ever been playing in a game, because honestly,

183
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 3: basketball had come pretty easy to me, where I'd never

184
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:28,720
Speaker 3: gotten nervous, and then I played on big stages and

185
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 3: March Madness and playoffs, and but for whatever reason, knowing

186
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 3: that you know, everybody I grew up with, all my family,

187
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 3: everybody that was close to me is there, and I

188
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 3: knew they were watching when I was on the road.

189
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 3: But that was that just yeah, that hit a little harder.

190
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 1: Do you know who bones Highland is?

191
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 3: I do?

192
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 2: Did you see that story that was crazy on the

193
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 2: Nuggets five hundred people game?

194
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 3: To me, there was something where like A see someone

195
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 3: a firefighter save him from the fire and they all came.

196
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 2: To exactly I saw that was like I think what

197
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 2: happened was was like his house was burning down, and

198
00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 2: then they told him you can never play basketball again,

199
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 2: and then because of those firefighters he could, and I

200
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 2: saw they gave.

201
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 3: Him like any stooping too. He killed that game.

202
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know he had like twenty one. I think

203
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 2: he was like five or seven on threes.

204
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 3: Now you're just showing up.

205
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I watched a lot of House of

206
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 2: Highlights videos, that's for sure, because well, I guess because

207
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 2: you were from Orlando when you played the Magic, did

208
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 2: you like did you like go off?

209
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 4: Like?

210
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 3: So the first my first couple of years, they were

211
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 3: really good. That was like the Dwight Howard, Jamiir Nelson, Turcolou,

212
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 3: Ryan Anderson, Richard Lewis. They went to the finals that year.

213
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 3: And I remember my first couple of games. I didn't

214
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 3: play much as my rookie year, and so I remember

215
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:33,520
Speaker 3: we played Orlando on Christmas Day in Orlando and I

216
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 3: didn't play, and I was devast and I was on

217
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 3: the West Coast, so I only played them that one

218
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 3: time in Orlando. So that was it till my second year.

219
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,000
Speaker 3: But then, yeah, I used to cook them all the time.

220
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 3: I'd go back home.

221
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 2: I can't imagine what it would be like, just like

222
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:46,200
Speaker 2: being there and thinking about how when you were a

223
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 2: kid used to go there and look at that and

224
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 2: be like that was your dream, and then you got

225
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 2: to just like.

226
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,839
Speaker 3: It's funny because my Grandpa had season tickets Roe g

227
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 3: or Section g Row one oh six, and I would

228
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 3: have like when I was playing, I would remember I

229
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 3: would be looking at that second should thinking like damn.

230
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 3: I used to sit there and like, watch these guys

231
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:04,640
Speaker 3: play it.

232
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 1: Okay, So who is your least favorite player to play against?

233
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 2: Like who every time you just they were driven up

234
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 2: the ball, You're just like I do not want to

235
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 2: guard them.

236
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 1: That's just so sad.

237
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,719
Speaker 3: You know. It's funny. I have three players that had

238
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:16,199
Speaker 3: were very good players, but not like you know, Hall

239
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 3: of Fame guys that just used to destroy me. One

240
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,400
Speaker 3: was Wilson Chandler, one was Rudy Gay, and one was

241
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 3: Danny Granger. And they all got buckets like they were

242
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:28,320
Speaker 3: all very very good, but I'm talking like thirty forty.

243
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,600
Speaker 3: Every single time they saw me, like they would just

244
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:31,160
Speaker 3: destroy me.

245
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:31,680
Speaker 1: Yeah.

246
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 2: I saw something where I feel like it was like

247
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 2: Draymond or something, and he was talking about people that

248
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 2: are like just not fun to guard. And I think

249
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,560
Speaker 2: he said Reggie Jackson, and I was sort of like,

250
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 2: that's so random.

251
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 3: I get Reggie Jaction. Reggie Jackson. He's very shifty, he's crafty,

252
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 3: the way he handles the ball. It's unique, so it

253
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:48,680
Speaker 3: makes him very hard to cover.

254
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 2: Speaking of that, the Clippers without Paul George have been

255
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 2: I mean, Reggie Jackson's been falling this this year.

256
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,400
Speaker 3: It's really impressive with Tylou and what they're doing. Then

257
00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 3: you know guys like Luke Canard and you know, they

258
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 3: we have a lot of these role players that have

259
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 3: kind of been pushed into this bigger role with Marcus Morris.

260
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 3: These guys are really hooping and you know, if they

261
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 3: make the playoffs, which I think they're going to, if

262
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:12,680
Speaker 3: they get those two guys back, they'll be fun to watch.

263
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,400
Speaker 1: And the young guys like Terrence Man and stuff, they've

264
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 1: been playing so well.

265
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 3: They they Yeah, they're deep, they're young, they're athletic, they're big,

266
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,080
Speaker 3: and then they got two stars just on this.

267
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 1: When they come back, that's gonna be crazy.

268
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 3: Do you like the Clippers over the Lakers?

269
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,679
Speaker 1: I'm Warriors many. I like the Clippers over.

270
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 3: The Are you always a Warriors fan? Are you now

271
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:29,839
Speaker 3: a Warriors fan? Because they're good?

272
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:31,200
Speaker 1: Like I really?

273
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 2: People always ask me that and I have to be like,

274
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 2: I show them this one picture of me when I

275
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,000
Speaker 2: was like eight, and like Okay, maybe they had like

276
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 2: one chip, but like still I was eight, So that's

277
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 2: like my that was like the beginning of when I

278
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 2: could start to be a fan.

279
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:44,560
Speaker 3: Just don't go switch into the Lakers once they get

280
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 3: good in the war and.

281
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:46,640
Speaker 1: Oh, first off, that's not gonna happen.

282
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 2: In second, well I won't And like I I okay,

283
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:50,719
Speaker 2: I know that this isn't as bad as like being

284
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 2: a Magic fan just like forever. But like when the

285
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,319
Speaker 2: Warriors when Steph broke his hand and Clay was out,

286
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 2: Like I was like there when like Ki Bowman was

287
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:01,440
Speaker 2: the start point guard and I know that that was

288
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:03,440
Speaker 2: just a year, but I was there. Yeah, Like I

289
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:05,680
Speaker 2: was like, come on, Alec Burks, win us the game,

290
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:06,840
Speaker 2: Like that's not a fun.

291
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 1: Thing to say.

292
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I think they got a chance this year.

293
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 2: They've only played eleven minutes with each other in three years.

294
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 3: I think. Yeah. I mean, listen, they got two of

295
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 3: the best shooters of all time on their team. And

296
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 3: when they're healthy. It's all about health going in the playoffs,

297
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 3: Like whoever's even the Lakers? Like I think the Lakers

298
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:23,720
Speaker 3: are garbage right now, right, but if the minute they

299
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 3: get fully healthy and then they can get hot for

300
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:27,160
Speaker 3: a month and win it all. Why not?

301
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think they're gonna be hot for

302
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:29,200
Speaker 1: a month and win it all.

303
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 3: That's right. We're just saying like they have. They have

304
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 3: two top ten players in the world with Lebron and

305
00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:35,959
Speaker 3: a d if they're healthy, I don't want to play

306
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 3: them first round.

307
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:37,439
Speaker 1: Cru shade on Russ there.

308
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 3: I love Russ. He's a Hall of Famer, but.

309
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:41,719
Speaker 1: He's now seventy nine overall in two K.

310
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,839
Speaker 3: But you know what Russ is, He's one of the

311
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 3: greatest point guards of all time. He's one of the

312
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,200
Speaker 3: greatest players, and he's just not a good fit on

313
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:49,960
Speaker 3: that team. Like they should have went for shooting. They

314
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,239
Speaker 3: should have went. I would rather have like a Halliburton

315
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 3: and Buddy Heel than Westbrook to mesh with that team.

316
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,560
Speaker 2: It's unfortunate because it would be so cool to see

317
00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:59,680
Speaker 2: them all on the chip. But yeah, yeah, it just

318
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 2: wasn't right. Okay, So now let's segue into definitely my

319
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:07,840
Speaker 2: favorite segment, takes Hotter than Kelly Ubray Junior Oh Boy

320
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 2: Stephen A. Smith is known for his hot takes, but

321
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 2: have you ever seen takes hotter than Kelly Ubra Junior.

322
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:14,559
Speaker 2: I don't think so, not until the two of us

323
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 2: are about to get really hot. Okay, so he doesn't

324
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 2: have to be exactly in ten seconds, but I just

325
00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 2: want you to give me like a very pretty quick answer.

326
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 1: So, first off, which NBA player is the best dressed?

327
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:29,840
Speaker 3: Who the best dressed in? I mean, people like Russ's style, like,

328
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 3: but I think it's a little out there. Yeah, I'm

329
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 3: more of like a classy Mike Conley style.

330
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 1: Nice. You see Jared Allen at the All Star Game?

331
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 2: Pathetic, so funny, Like I get, I understood his point.

332
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 3: No, that's what makes him such a good teammate and

333
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 3: a player because he's so simple and he doesn't no

334
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 3: matter how how many All Stars Championships, that dude's not changing.

335
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,520
Speaker 1: No, Okay, So next, who has the best shoe game?

336
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:52,439
Speaker 1: I mean, I like your shoes.

337
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 3: My shoe game is pretty good. I'm retired, so I'm

338
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 3: gonna take me out of this. PJ Tucker by far.

339
00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:58,199
Speaker 1: You know his house for his shoes.

340
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:02,440
Speaker 3: He's got every Jordan, every Nike, every show you could

341
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 3: ever imagine.

342
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 1: Next, who is the funniest NBA player?

343
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:10,160
Speaker 3: The funniest NBA player I think Luca is hilarious, like

344
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,439
Speaker 3: he's people don't see that side of him very much,

345
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 3: just because I mean, he hasn't been around the long

346
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:16,240
Speaker 3: and he's pretty serious on the court. But he's a

347
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 3: he's a humble, quiet, soft spoking guy. But he's hilarious. Yeah.

348
00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:23,440
Speaker 1: I like when he juggles the basketball like a soccer ball.

349
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,840
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, all the European guys are so good at that. Yeah.

350
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 2: To be honest, though, I think if I went into

351
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,199
Speaker 2: a juggling contest with Luca, like soccer juggling.

352
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:32,320
Speaker 3: I can't even juggle with my hands.

353
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 1: I've done like three hundred in my day.

354
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 3: There you go. Wow.

355
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:37,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean Luca would definitely be me to one

356
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:40,439
Speaker 2: one B one basketball wise, but soccer, I think I

357
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:41,400
Speaker 2: think I have it on it.

358
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:42,679
Speaker 3: Wow, you gotta set that up.

359
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,959
Speaker 2: Oh please do, please do? Okay, So wow, that was

360
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:47,680
Speaker 2: such a perfect segue. And I didn't even meet to

361
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 2: which NBA player would be the best professional soccer player.

362
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 3: It's gotta be a European guy. You know who's nastiest

363
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 3: soccer is Joelle and b He'd probably be a goalie,

364
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:58,439
Speaker 3: but he is nasty at soccer.

365
00:13:58,679 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 1: Well, he would cover the whole goal.

366
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, that's why I was thinking. That's why I

367
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:02,720
Speaker 3: was thinking, goalie.

368
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 2: He would just be like, you'd shoot it, try to

369
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:05,720
Speaker 2: go top corner, and he just like you wouldn't even move,

370
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:07,320
Speaker 2: He just put his hand out there and like grab it.

371
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 1: Okay.

372
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 2: So, then who of any of your NBA teammates was

373
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 2: the best singer? Like, who in the locker room were

374
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 2: you just like this beautiful voice?

375
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 3: I honestly don't know if any none of them.

376
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:17,880
Speaker 1: Oh well, Dame and Miles Bridges rap.

377
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 3: I mean they rap and shumper like dances.

378
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, dances kind of.

379
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 3: So singing, I don't. I don't know that I've ever

380
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 3: heard any of my teammates like really sing. I wouldn't

381
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,200
Speaker 3: even know who to pick, you know what, no one says,

382
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:33,000
Speaker 3: I guess, yeah, Dame raps.

383
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:34,680
Speaker 1: But that's not like singing like opera.

384
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's not really a trait of the NBA guys.

385
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:38,880
Speaker 2: I guess maybe if you're really good at basketball, you

386
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 2: just have a horrible voice.

387
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:41,000
Speaker 3: You can't have it all.

388
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, no one's perfect. Okay. So which NBA player

389
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:46,040
Speaker 1: would you vote for for president?

390
00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 3: Which NBA player would I vote for for President? It

391
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,360
Speaker 3: would be. It would be like an older guy. It

392
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 3: would be a guy that's been around for a while.

393
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:56,920
Speaker 3: I would vote for, like uh, I would vote for

394
00:14:56,960 --> 00:15:00,760
Speaker 3: like a Jeff Green type, someone that's that's been around

395
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 3: the block, vet place right place, smart, good decision maker.

396
00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 3: I feel like someone like Jeff Green. I'd go with. Ye.

397
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:09,480
Speaker 1: I feel like Iggy would be a really good president.

398
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 3: Gudala would be great someone exactly.

399
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 2: Because the only reason I think he's even on the

400
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,480
Speaker 2: Warriors is to sort of be like the well, not

401
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 2: the president, but he's just there to be like the

402
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 2: bete I swear he's played four games.

403
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 3: Those guys like Iguodala Vince Card are those guys that

404
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 3: keep getting deals at the end of their career. Those

405
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 3: are the presidential candidates. Chris Paul would be a great

406
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:26,400
Speaker 3: president totally.

407
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 1: Wasn't he the president of the Player's Association's.

408
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:32,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, He's got practice. He's a leader like Arnold Tors.

409
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 2: Maybe that'd be cool if like once like Lebron retired something,

410
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:36,760
Speaker 2: he just like runs for governor of California.

411
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, probably not Lebron, but I'd take well.

412
00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, fine, let's just go with Chris Paul. Of

413
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 2: maybe the governor of Arizona.

414
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:44,280
Speaker 3: There we go. Interesting that would work.

415
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 2: That would Okay, So which NBA player do you think

416
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:47,960
Speaker 2: would be the best TikTok?

417
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,320
Speaker 3: You know, I'm not on TikTok obviously, I know what

418
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 3: TikTok is, and I'm why I'm familiar. I just haven't

419
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 3: got there yet. I feel like a real old head,

420
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,000
Speaker 3: but I'm saying this, but like I haven't got there.

421
00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 3: Definitely would be like these younger like like Trey Young

422
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:02,600
Speaker 3: would feel could be good on TikTok. He's kind of dancing.

423
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:03,320
Speaker 3: R J.

424
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 1: Hampton is famous on TikTok and I always think that's funny.

425
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,400
Speaker 3: Me and Michael's best friend Dan Frank is his agent.

426
00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:11,440
Speaker 3: I had no idea he's been on TikTok, but someone

427
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:13,480
Speaker 3: like that. And one of these younger millennials.

428
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 1: Times he's like good at TikTok?

429
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:15,240
Speaker 4: Is he?

430
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 1: Yeah?

431
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 2: He foks funny things like after the game he'll just post.

432
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:22,000
Speaker 2: And then there's pray Man I think it's his name

433
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:25,280
Speaker 2: on okay, see Florida. He's a decent TikToker.

434
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:26,480
Speaker 3: And what do they dance?

435
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:29,640
Speaker 1: Well, they dance, they do like here's the life of

436
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 1: an NBA.

437
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 3: Player, they like show like shoot around or film or.

438
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, basically and they're like they like show like r

439
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 2: Je Hampton does like a lot of like magic facility

440
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:39,000
Speaker 2: in early in the morning.

441
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:40,760
Speaker 1: Stuff is decent at that.

442
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:41,160
Speaker 3: That's cool.

443
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 2: But some of those NBA teams, like they go crazy

444
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 2: on TikTok or the NFL teams. I mean, like the Lions. Oh,

445
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:49,239
Speaker 2: actually the Kings have a really.

446
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 3: Funny Lions have to do something to stay real.

447
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly same with the Kings.

448
00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:55,480
Speaker 2: Like their TikTok manager, I swear outwardly just like we suck,

449
00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 2: so we might as well be good at TikTok.

450
00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:59,400
Speaker 3: Is it more humor or is or is it more

451
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 3: just like person And I'll show you.

452
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:03,880
Speaker 2: Like like humor stuff like this is the first time

453
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:05,880
Speaker 2: we've beat the Lakers in thirty.

454
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:07,640
Speaker 3: Years to kind of clown themselves.

455
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:09,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, they basically clown the cool But I feel like

456
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 2: maybe the guys are the best at TikTok are the

457
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:12,959
Speaker 2: guys who don't really get that many minutes.

458
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 3: It's dicey too, because when people start seeing you do

459
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:18,440
Speaker 3: stuff like that and then you play bad, it's yes,

460
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:21,120
Speaker 3: people want to judge you for everything you do. Off

461
00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 3: the court, which is ridiculous, but yeah, they got to

462
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:24,800
Speaker 3: be careful of doing that stuff.

463
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,239
Speaker 2: Okay, So I have to admit I think I do

464
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:30,840
Speaker 2: know a lot about the NBA and you probably do too,

465
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 2: So I thought it would be fun to invite you

466
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:34,880
Speaker 2: to play a game with me called Sloan Notes. And

467
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,560
Speaker 2: to be fair, I haven't seen any of these cards yet.

468
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 2: So I'll read a question, and then you'll read a question,

469
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,160
Speaker 2: and then we'll flip over the card and then each other.

470
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:45,520
Speaker 2: You have to guess, but these are definitely starting off simple. Okay,

471
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:47,440
Speaker 2: So whose nickname is the Greek freak?

472
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 3: Be honest? Which NBA player starred and Burger King commercial

473
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 3: as a kid?

474
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm gonna guess.

475
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 3: This is easy.

476
00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,120
Speaker 2: I feel like it has to be an NBA players,

477
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 2: like I was an NBA player, because like, I don't

478
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:03,240
Speaker 2: know why, I just feel like that.

479
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:06,400
Speaker 3: Maybe this is the second easiest question, which is which

480
00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 3: is what's wrong? Okay, I'm gonna guess like Eric Gordon

481
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:12,200
Speaker 3: just because he looks like the little kid in Space

482
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,160
Speaker 3: Sham and maybe it was that's fair.

483
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,200
Speaker 2: This is like definitely not right, But I'm just gonna

484
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,399
Speaker 2: say Seth Curry it just somehow feels.

485
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:22,119
Speaker 3: You said, Seth Curry, it's Steph Curry? What he was

486
00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 3: in a burger Cary? Wait?

487
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,920
Speaker 1: I knew that somehow I had like a like an intuition.

488
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:27,120
Speaker 3: Unfortunately you got it wrong.

489
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:30,439
Speaker 2: Okay, Well I was close. NBA champion Kyrie Irving was

490
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 2: born in which country?

491
00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:33,480
Speaker 3: He was born in Australia?

492
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 1: Yeah you got that one. Okay.

493
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,399
Speaker 2: So which NBA player is six ' nine and a

494
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:39,920
Speaker 2: scorpio in from Florida?

495
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,680
Speaker 1: Yeah he seems so confnised.

496
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 3: Okay, Which NBA player went to medical school?

497
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:49,959
Speaker 1: Feels like Kevin Love, but it's probably not.

498
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,520
Speaker 3: I'm gonna see Gouodala. But even though I didn't even

499
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:56,439
Speaker 3: think he graduate college, Yeah he didn't, how Gasol, I

500
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 3: was confused with the question. I was thinking current NBA players.

501
00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 3: It's interest because he's from Spain. I didn't he didn't

502
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,359
Speaker 3: play college basketball, so I would never have guessed.

503
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:05,359
Speaker 2: And that actually makes sort of sense because you couldn't.

504
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,800
Speaker 2: Did you even go to that many classes when you played?

505
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:09,480
Speaker 3: Is this on the record or off the record? I

506
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:10,120
Speaker 3: went to all of them.

507
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,240
Speaker 1: Okay, but let's just pretend no one's listening.

508
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:15,960
Speaker 2: Very few, I thought, Okay, So which former NBA player

509
00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:18,360
Speaker 2: is over seven feet tall, and one championships with both

510
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,480
Speaker 2: the Lakers and the Miami Heat.

511
00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 3: I know there's there's two. O.

512
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:25,119
Speaker 1: Hey, give me both Lebron and Shack seven foot Shack.

513
00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:26,440
Speaker 3: No, it's definitely Shack.

514
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:29,879
Speaker 2: This isn't really part of anything, but Lebron aramj I

515
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 2: just gonna end with that because it feels right.

516
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:35,600
Speaker 3: You know what, Michael Jordan is my favorite player of

517
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:38,120
Speaker 3: all time. I think he's the goat. He's the coolest,

518
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 3: dopest brand, dopest logo. I think Lebron James is better

519
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 3: at basketball.

520
00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:43,640
Speaker 1: That is not what I thought.

521
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:45,679
Speaker 3: I think. You know what, how I how I compare,

522
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:48,200
Speaker 3: you know, like the razor phones or the sidekicks. Back

523
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,280
Speaker 3: in the day, the cell phones, Yeah, really cool, right dope.

524
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,359
Speaker 3: We thought it was the best thing. Ever, then the

525
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,680
Speaker 3: iPhone came out. That's Michael Jordan and Lebron. Lebron is

526
00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:00,520
Speaker 3: just a faster, better, stronger version. And it's not fair.

527
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:02,240
Speaker 3: It's not a fair argument because now Lebron has the

528
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:05,880
Speaker 3: resources and all the craziest technology and things like.

529
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,480
Speaker 1: That to That's why it's not even a question.

530
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,080
Speaker 3: But yeah, and I just think when you look at him.

531
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:12,720
Speaker 3: I think obviously the top two. So the fact that

532
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:14,919
Speaker 3: we're arguing over one and two is that. But I

533
00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:16,240
Speaker 3: would I would go with Bron.

534
00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:18,760
Speaker 2: I feel like almost kids can't even speak on it

535
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,440
Speaker 2: because I wasn't alive to see the like magic of them.

536
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:22,119
Speaker 3: Do you know?

537
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:25,160
Speaker 2: I watched like videos, but I wasn't there really being

538
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:26,880
Speaker 2: able to like watch mj and.

539
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:28,320
Speaker 3: The guy was unbelievable.

540
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:30,080
Speaker 2: The other day, I came from soccer practice and it

541
00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:32,000
Speaker 2: was like really late, and like Lebron just like shot

542
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 2: That was the night he had fifty for the second time,

543
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:36,920
Speaker 2: and he like shot this sort of like fade away

544
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,119
Speaker 2: jumper and it just like went really high. Like I

545
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 2: can't really explain what was so amazing about it, but

546
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,480
Speaker 2: it was so high arching and it went in and

547
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:44,919
Speaker 2: I just sort of looked at that and I was like,

548
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:46,320
Speaker 2: I can't believe I'm watching that.

549
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 3: Jordan is way more likable.

550
00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,120
Speaker 1: Ye, and you don't like Taco Tuesday.

551
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:55,000
Speaker 3: I don't, just he's really corrn back Tuesday.

552
00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:58,200
Speaker 1: But Michael Jordan also didn't have social media while he played.

553
00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:00,680
Speaker 3: True if social media was following all these guys around

554
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,120
Speaker 3: where they're going to dinner and TMGs of the World

555
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 3: and all this stuff. It would be a totally different way.

556
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:06,960
Speaker 2: I like that you posted a photo dump in cobble

557
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 2: because I posted one at the same place and I

558
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,320
Speaker 2: was like, look at you being a teenage girl on

559
00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:11,920
Speaker 2: social media.

560
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:12,520
Speaker 1: That's impressive.

561
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:15,360
Speaker 3: It's more Haley doing the aesthetic look of my I'm

562
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,120
Speaker 3: not really good at that, but yeah, okay, And my

563
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 3: page is private because this lawsuit I was in with

564
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:22,480
Speaker 3: the car crash I got in Atlanta. So now now

565
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:26,680
Speaker 3: I'm back open, so now I'll start getting okay with it.

566
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,080
Speaker 2: But anyway, but like, also, we don't know if mj

567
00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:32,679
Speaker 2: had TikTok, he could be like doing the whole Like

568
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:34,919
Speaker 2: do you know who Jared McCain is. No, Okay, so

569
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 2: he's just like he just won Gatorade State Player of

570
00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:40,520
Speaker 2: the Year and he's on Centennial, which won the state championship,

571
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:42,639
Speaker 2: and he has a million followers on TikTok and he

572
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:46,399
Speaker 2: does like the whole dance thing, and like, you never know, bro,

573
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,720
Speaker 2: everyone says that whenever the Chief slews, everyone is like

574
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:51,680
Speaker 2: the reason why.

575
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,359
Speaker 3: They lost is, yeah, he's getting he always gets just

576
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:55,439
Speaker 3: at the games.

577
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:56,680
Speaker 1: I don't know if this is true.

578
00:21:56,680 --> 00:22:00,320
Speaker 2: But apparently because of all his social media press since

579
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:04,200
Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes requested that he and his wife, Yeah, well

580
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:05,160
Speaker 2: his wife.

581
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:05,640
Speaker 1: That's mean.

582
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 3: The brother's kind of getting to the point where he's

583
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,119
Speaker 3: a distraction. They're talking about him more than like Patrick

584
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 3: and the Chiefs. So it's it's kind of annoying.

585
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:14,919
Speaker 2: It is like, it's really funny that they'll be like

586
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 2: losing and he'll just be just like, you know, doing

587
00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 2: all these dances.

588
00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:21,399
Speaker 1: Yet but he gets a large amount of hate.

589
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:23,639
Speaker 2: But I'm just saying, like, you know, I would like

590
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:26,080
Speaker 2: to see like a Lebron MJ TikTok battle.

591
00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:28,240
Speaker 3: That would be interesting. I don't think I don't think

592
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:30,120
Speaker 3: MJ would ever give in. I feel like the old

593
00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:31,840
Speaker 3: school guys are so cut in their ways.

594
00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,919
Speaker 1: I can see Lebron on TikTok does TikTok with his sons.

595
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 3: He Jack is such an awesome dude, like such a

596
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 3: big personality, like he Shack's the best.

597
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 1: To an NBA player who's six ' nine. Does Shaq

598
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:43,560
Speaker 1: even look so giant?

599
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,600
Speaker 3: Monster? I went to Houston right after Yao Ming left,

600
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,399
Speaker 3: but he would always come around. That dude. I have

601
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 3: a picture with him. I got to show you guys

602

Speaker 2: I feel like when I stand next to you, I'm like,

606
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,119
Speaker 2: I look up at you and I'm like, oh my gosh.

607
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,440
Speaker 1: So it's crazy to think that there's people on Earth.

Speaker 3: There's bobon like even like big, like Joel and Brus

Speaker 1: It's crazy. I don't know if you've seen it.

613
00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:18,960
Speaker 2: There's this thing where he holds like four water like

614
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,880
Speaker 2: those water bottles, the arrowhead ones. He holds like four

615
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:23,600
Speaker 2: of them in his hand and he just like, well

616
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:25,240
Speaker 2: the claw. I mean it makes sense, I guess.

617
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:27,320
