And 91 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 6: that dude went on the other side of the court 92 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:45,799 Speaker 6: and put up fifty fucking points. 93 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 2: That four point lead felt like. 94 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 1: A twenty point lead because. 95 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 6: You knew Giannis was gonna give him a bucket every 96 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 6: fucking time on the court. It was insane how Dominati 97 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,280 Speaker 6: was on both fucking ends. 98 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: It blows my mind. 99 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 3: Gee, well, so and Shack. 100 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 4: His first finals with the Lakers was thirty eight points, 101 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 4: then it was thirty three, then it was. 102 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:06,600 Speaker 3: Back to thirty five. 103 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 4: But the collective, though, he averaged for those three finals 104 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 4: like thirty five and fourteen. And that was why when 105 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 4: you know, I do a bunch of the best player 106 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:20,039 Speaker 4: ever discussion, there's a different discussion, which is, if you 107 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 4: could have any player in world history at the peak 108 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 4: of his powers for one game, you could make the 109 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 4: argument that the number one pick of that draft is 110 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 4: prime Shack because it's like, well, he's giving you forty 111 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 4: and fifteen. Yeah, Jannis gave us a similar finals while 112 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 4: dominating defensively in a way Shaq never did. Shaq is 113 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 4: good defender and his great rim protector. You mentioned Devin Booker. 114 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 4: How about the fact that DeAndre Ayton was literally shooting 115 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:57,239 Speaker 4: seventy one percent for the playoffs and in this series 116 00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 4: shot fifty percent, and like it just looked beaten down 117 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 4: by it. And I don't know if this finals itself 118 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 4: is the best overall finals we've ever performed. We've seen 119 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 4: Jordan in ninety three against the Suns pretty damn good. 120 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:17,919 Speaker 4: You mentioned Lebron in sixteen, and there are obviously some 121 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 4: other ones, but the Game six that he just put 122 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:27,160 Speaker 4: together is one of the five best finals games ever. 123 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 4: Like Magic's has always been at the top of the list. 124 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 4: He's a rookie, Kareem's out. How about I just give 125 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 4: you forty two to fifteen and seven the underrated Like 126 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 4: what everyone calls the Willis Reed game was actually the 127 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 4: Walt Fraser game. He had thirty six, seven and nineteen 128 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 4: in a game seven Tyler mentioned on Twitter, And I'm 129 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 4: glad I think Tyler and I are the only two 130 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 4: people outside of San Antonio that remember. 131 00:06:50,240 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 7: Tim Duncan was two blocks away from a Yeah, these are. 132 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 4: The like Room and Jordan's final game ever with the 133 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,200 Speaker 4: Bulls where I don't think either team cracked ninety and 134 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 4: he had forty five like those are, but Yanna scored 135 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 4: fifty points on sixty percent shooting in a close game 136 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 4: to win the finals. And his biggest weakness is free 137 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 4: throw shooting. And there was an unbelievable moment where during 138 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 4: the broadcast, Breen was like, you know, one game Yannis 139 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:31,080 Speaker 4: went was early in broadcast seventeen for seventeen from the line, 140 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 4: and Bengunni didn't believe him. 141 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 3: Ben Gunny's like, when did that happen? 142 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 2: Bast forward An hour. 143 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 4: Later, Jannis was sixteen of seventeen in Game six of 144 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 4: the finals from the line. It's you can't overstate it. 145 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 4: And I do think it makes everyone reevaluate. Wait, who 146 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 4: is the best player in the league. 147 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 1: This is what I think about the best player in league. 148 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:53,200 Speaker 2: Shit. 149 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 6: I don't think the universe accidentally had Brin right there 150 00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:58,239 Speaker 6: when he boomed that shit. 151 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: That shit felt like a fucking moment to me. 152 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 6: And before Game six, I thought, you know, Katie is 153 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 6: the best player in the league to me, you know 154 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 6: what I mean, when bron comes back, we'll see next year, hey, 155 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 6: And and we had you know, Steph. 156 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 1: In there too as well. Maybe maybe, but probably not. 157 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 1: To me, Yannis is right there. To me, it's between 158 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 1: Yannis KD and Bron. Next year, we'll see what happens. 159 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 6: But I don't see how we see what Jannis just 160 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 6: did and not look at him in that fucking way, 161 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 6: because I. 162 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 1: Don't know if, just like what Katie did, I think 163 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 1: it was a game five or game four, Game five, 164 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 1: Game five. I don't think anybody else could have done that. 165 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 6: I don't think anybody else could have dominated the game 166 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:36,959 Speaker 6: in Game six the way Giannis did. 167 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,679 Speaker 1: Only Giannis could have put that performance up. And that's 168 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 1: how I feel. 169 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 6: So I don't know what's happened next year, but Yiannis 170 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 6: is right there in that conversation to me, Man. 171 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:49,719 Speaker 4: Tyler, I I got it before I Before I give 172 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 4: my take, you said earlier, you know you're the biggest 173 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 4: Lebron stand out there, and I agree. I don't even 174 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 4: know who else could possibly be in that conversation. I 175 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 4: like to hear where Tyler stands on this before I 176 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 4: get my thoughts on it all right. 177 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 5: First, I want to touch on that ship John said 178 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,080 Speaker 5: about how it felt like destiny when Broun was there 179 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,079 Speaker 5: because we saw, you know, I shared in the group 180 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,680 Speaker 5: chat with the homies that quote for my team, kim 181 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 5: Olajua said. The first time I saw Giannis's last name, 182 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:19,960 Speaker 5: I knew he was from my tribe. He was Yoruba, 183 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 5: and his last name means the crown has returned from overseas. 184 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 1: Like you're talking about some destiny. Shit, that's some destiny 185 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 1: for your ass right there. 186 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 5: But I think Giannis is in a unique situation where 187 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 5: it's his league. He's the king of this ship right now. 188 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 5: But I don't think he's the best player. I still 189 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,680 Speaker 5: think Bron is better and I think kd Is is better. 190 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 5: I think that's probably the only guys who I'll say 191 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 5: it are better than Yannis right now. 192 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 3: So build on both those points. First one is this. 193 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 1: That was all right? 194 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:54,439 Speaker 2: Sorry? Sorry sorry, sorry sorry, This video situation is actually untenable. 195 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 1: We need to go back to the wi FI. I'm sorry, untenable. 196 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 1: I'm making Yeah, it's actually like Big said, it's untenable, 197 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:10,839 Speaker 1: yo was. 198 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 2: Jackson? All right? 199 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 3: There, I'll just start fresh. 200 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 4: So here's the thing about Lebron being there. It's the 201 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 4: first Finals game Lebron's ever been in attendance. For it 202 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 4: that he wasn't playing it, so he had like that's 203 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,560 Speaker 4: the game he picked to go to and he was 204 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 4: seated in the exact camera shot of the dunk like 205 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:42,679 Speaker 4: it's so that does make it feel like it was 206 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 4: meant to be. Now on the best player stuff, so 207 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 4: one of the Lebron hasn't been the best player in 208 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 4: the regular season since I would argue twenty eighteen, twenty 209 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,680 Speaker 4: eighteen that Cavs team was terrible. 210 00:10:58,000 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 3: Lebron played all eighty two and carried them. 211 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 4: But he's he's kept the crown because it's like he's 212 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 4: been better than everyone in the playoffs and he's always 213 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 4: playing in the last game. 214 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 3: Well, this year, he wasn't that good in the playoffs. 215 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 4: Now, I think it's because he was hurt, but that's 216 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,200 Speaker 4: also part of the thing that was it's like he's 217 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 4: never hurt, so we gotta be fair in all those regards. 218 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 4: So set Lebron aside because I feel like Lebron can, 219 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,959 Speaker 4: you know, try to prove it everyone because we did 220 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,199 Speaker 4: this before, right I didn't, but some people did it 221 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 4: like hey, it's STEP's league. No, no it's not, Hey, 222 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,079 Speaker 4: it's it's Kawi's league. Now that was stupid and now 223 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 4: we'll see if they honest thing looks bad When it 224 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 4: comes to Giannis and Durant, what does Durant do better 225 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 4: than Yannis? 226 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 3: Other than shoot? 227 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 4: He doesn't score better, he doesn't pass better, he doesn't 228 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 4: rebound better. He certainly doesn't defend better. So what what? 229 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 3: To me? 230 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 4: The the KD argument is an aesthetic one, but he's 231 00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 4: so much prettier to watch. 232 00:11:58,400 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 3: I don't care. 233 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 4: Is he more effective or does it? Just does he 234 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:04,680 Speaker 4: have a bigger bag? Because all that's in Giannice's bag 235 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 4: is you know, one. 236 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 3: MVP, a second MVP, a defensive Player of the Year. 237 00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 4: And now finals MVP. That's what's playing around in his bag. No, no, 238 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:13,959 Speaker 4: has he Jimbo's. 239 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 3: But he's just got a. 240 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 2: Bag, I think. Look, and we don't do a lot 241 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:24,080 Speaker 2: of the takey best player stuff on the show, Nick 242 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:29,840 Speaker 2: because you will, Buddy, Yes, guys genuinely are are better 243 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 2: at it than us, but I will. But I will 244 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 2: say this, Those conversations usually center around what most people 245 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 2: are paying attention to, which is the offensive end of 246 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 2: the floor. And the reason that I would today say 247 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 2: if you're asking me who I would take in the 248 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,680 Speaker 2: NBA today, going into the playoffs. The reason it would 249 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:49,439 Speaker 2: be honest is because of what you started the interview 250 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 2: talking about, which is a defense, Like if you can 251 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:54,880 Speaker 2: score fifty points in a finals game, I think I 252 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 2: read it was the seventh time that's ever happened. The 253 00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 2: last two people to do it were Lebron and Michael 254 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:03,560 Speaker 2: Jory in you're good enough offensively, I'll take good enough 255 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:07,080 Speaker 2: with fifty points. But it's exactly what you said. The 256 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,559 Speaker 2: best scorer on the other team sees the dude and 257 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 2: shits himself, and that is not happening with Kevin Durant. 258 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:15,679 Speaker 1: I don't really think Bron. 259 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 2: Is taking that on until it's like the last ninety 260 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,560 Speaker 2: seconds of a game at this point, and he I 261 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 2: mean in the third quarter. In the third game that 262 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 2: they had to win, there was a little cut of 263 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 2: every time in the last three minutes of the game, 264 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:31,959 Speaker 2: Giannis was within five feet of the basketball, it was 265 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 2: a turnover by the Suns, right, So it's just that's 266 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 2: the that's the difference to me. 267 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:40,200 Speaker 6: How much more difficult is the game when that player 268 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 6: that gets fifty is within eight feet of you and 269 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 6: you can't get a shot off. 270 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 2: It's impossible. 271 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: How difficult. Does Giannis make the other like, dude? 272 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:51,840 Speaker 6: And then and then you have fucking Drew Holliday putting 273 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:56,760 Speaker 6: people in fucking hall, bro. You know what I'm saying, Like, Yeah, 274 00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 6: I don't know how we didn't see this earlier. I think, 275 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,640 Speaker 6: I mean, I actually saw it at the beginning of 276 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:04,199 Speaker 6: the of the I've been in the playoffs. 277 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:05,839 Speaker 1: I said the Bucks are going to make it out. 278 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 1: But throughout the entire playoffs, I questioned this decision. 279 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,120 Speaker 8: I was sons son signs, I said next at one point, 280 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 8: you know what I mean, Like, but like dog, I 281 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 8: just Jannis makes the game harder than any other any 282 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 8: other player, I think, I don't. I mean, you can't 283 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 8: stop him on one in the court and then he's 284 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 8: and then like you can't be within five feet of 285 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 8: the motherfucker or he sending it to your to me 286 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 8: in the fuck and. 287 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 2: Call my couch. 288 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying? 289 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 2: Five blocks? See if five blocks in the in the 290 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 2: clinching game. But also as you're talking about, in game three, 291 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 2: he turned over the other team's best guards three times. 292 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 2: But you know what I mean, it's like he does 293 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 2: anything that's needed defensively as well, and. 294 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 1: Even without the blocks. 295 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 6: How many times did people pass up shots or you 296 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 6: know what I mean, made somebody had to shoot a 297 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 6: more difficult shot because Giannis was around. 298 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 3: You know, turned and. 299 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 4: The most critical play of the series, the drulity stealed 300 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 4: of the giannasop Booker turns. 301 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 3: Because Janni's comes. That's the reason Booker turns. Now. 302 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 4: Booker probably should just pulled up a little earlier, but 303 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 4: he gets by Tucker. Giannis is then there, so he 304 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 4: turns and Drew Holiday takes it from him, which I 305 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 4: think speaks to what you're talking about. 306 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 1: I just don't think anybody makes it harder. 307 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 6: So yeah, if I'm if there's one game or one 308 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 6: person in the playoffs, it'd probably be honest, I hate 309 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 6: the fucking say that, because the brin that runs through 310 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 6: my fucking veins is fighting the ship. 311 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 1: Out of it. 312 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 2: But I mean, Tyler is not even arguing with you. 313 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, he argues about not about I'll argue with you 314 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 1: about KD. 315 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 5: But yeah, yeah, yeah, but after this performance from Jianness 316 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 5: man ship, I mean, and and you know, I'm wanna 317 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 5: go back to what you said, John about how how 318 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 5: we didn't see this coming in it was coaching bro. 319 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 1: I think that's what it was. 320 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 5: Like we've seen how bud gets figured the fuck out 321 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 5: in the playoffs, right like he's had like you know, 322 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 5: four straight losses every fucking exit, you know, in the postseason. 323 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 5: Because h and this goes back to why I think KD, 324 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 5: I I will still take Kade over honest is because 325 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:11,040 Speaker 5: you know, defenses, they kind of figured out how to 326 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 5: to to limit Jannis because you know, Giannis is a 327 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 5: guy who lives in the paint. 328 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 1: That's where he gets his money. A guy like Kd's 329 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 1: gonna spread the defense out. 330 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 5: He three will score, you know what I mean, He's 331 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 5: gonna get his buckets everywhere. So that's why I still 332 00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 5: think KD, you know, is better than Yanni's here. But 333 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 5: we will see next season, man, because Giannis could for 334 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 5: for real, for real take the crown as the best 335 00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 5: guy in the league. 336 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 1: Next season, we'll see. 337 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 4: Can I ask another question on this, which is everyone 338 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:42,560 Speaker 4: talked yesterday about you know, he's stayed that Jannis decided committed. 339 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 4: I don't think it's irrational to say, let's say they 340 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:52,359 Speaker 4: trade for Drew, they do everything the same, trade for Drew, trade. 341 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 3: For PJ, do all those things. 342 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 4: But Yiannis hasn't signed the contract yet, and there's like 343 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 4: three times in these playoffs they lose. I think if 344 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 4: they haven't signed the if he hasn't signed the contract yet, 345 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 4: the pressure on him and his teammates after Katie's Game 346 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 4: five can crush them. Wait, everyone's gonna get fired, Giannis 347 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:14,200 Speaker 4: might leave. Do those guys still come through? I think 348 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 4: Game seven, when Katie hits that shot and it's like, 349 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:20,880 Speaker 4: oh my god, our entire everything is going to come 350 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 4: down to these five minutes. 351 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 3: Does that crush him? 352 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:28,639 Speaker 4: And lastly, if Jiannis is a pending free agent, is 353 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:31,400 Speaker 4: he even allowed to come back from the hyper extended 354 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:35,639 Speaker 4: nia in one week? If Jannis hasn't signed the contract extension, 355 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 4: does he miss the whole finals the first few games? 356 00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 3: Like all of those things. 357 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 4: That led to this, I don't know that any of 358 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 4: them happen without him signing the extension before the year 359 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 4: and putting all of that to rest. 360 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 9: One thing we're not talking about is that, like people 361 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 9: are talking about, not a lot of people don't. 362 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:55,439 Speaker 1: We didn't think this. 363 00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 6: Motherfucker was gonna even play a fucking game again in 364 00:17:58,119 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 6: the fucking playoffs. 365 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:05,159 Speaker 5: Yeahs next full Ostrich like this an't supposed to have 366 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 5: been like that? 367 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 1: Why you feel me? 368 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 10: Like his knee need the other way a knee sposed, 369 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:10,720 Speaker 10: you know what I mean? 370 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:14,120 Speaker 1: Like that is insane and then he comes and does this, 371 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:16,680 Speaker 1: It's just it's just wild. 372 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:20,639 Speaker 10: But on the other side, how do we feel about 373 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 10: Chris Paul? 374 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:26,120 Speaker 1: Like what does this mean? This loss mean for CP three? 375 00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:30,160 Speaker 8: And the motherfucker looked like he had t rexx arms 376 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 8: in big moments like turning. 377 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 10: The ball over like without even you know, saying, without 378 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,719 Speaker 10: not even under the rest for real, like missing shots 379 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,680 Speaker 10: that we've seen him be consistently hitting throughout the playoffs. 380 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 10: Like I don't know, bro, I still think he's one 381 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,359 Speaker 10: of the greatest points I've ever seen, But this is 382 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:49,360 Speaker 10: a it's a big difference between him having the chip 383 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 10: and not. 384 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 3: I believe you think so so ahead because. 385 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:57,399 Speaker 5: I honestly, I honestly don't know if if for me speaking, 386 00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 5: I don't know if a ring really changes how I 387 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 5: view Chris Paul because you know, I've got him as 388 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:03,880 Speaker 5: the fourth best point card ever on my list, behind 389 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,120 Speaker 5: you know, Magic, Steph Zeke and Chris Bawl. 390 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 1: And I don't know if he jumped he doesn't jump 391 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 1: with the ring for me, at. 392 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 4: Least, I I would I agree because and I would 393 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 4: I have him as fifth, but that's because I have 394 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 4: Oscar there. But Oscar it's like he's a point guard. 395 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 4: So I think we see him the same. So the 396 00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 4: guys he's competing with, like, it's like, all right, John Stockton, 397 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:26,920 Speaker 4: not only no ring. Some should go look at John 398 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 4: Stockton's ninety eight finals because. 399 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 3: They ain't great. They he had a two point game, Like, 400 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:34,240 Speaker 3: it's not good. 401 00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 4: Jason Kidd. He did get the ring, but it's a 402 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:39,919 Speaker 4: little different. He got the ring, not when he was 403 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 4: the best player on those nets teams. Gary Payton he 404 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:45,359 Speaker 4: got the ring, but again that's with the heat. He 405 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 4: was like three points a game. So the other point 406 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 4: guard Iverson if you call him the point guard, he's 407 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:53,400 Speaker 4: not really shooting, but whatever, same thing. So I thought 408 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:55,399 Speaker 4: it was important to Chris not only to get to 409 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 4: the finals, but the way he got there. 410 00:19:58,119 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 3: The best game of his whole career was Game six 411 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 3: against the Clippers. That matters. 412 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 4: And I know he had some bad moments in the finals, 413 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 4: but he was awesome in game one. 414 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 3: He was good in Game two, and as. 415 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 4: Soon what we learned in these finals was you know 416 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:15,840 Speaker 4: which Phoenix guard is gonna suck whichever one Drew Holidays 417 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:19,159 Speaker 4: guarding last night, Drew Holliday was guarding Devin Booker, so 418 00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:22,639 Speaker 4: Devin Booker was not existent. Chris Paul's like, oh, PJ. 419 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 4: Tucker's on me again, sweet, I'll score twenty five. And 420 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 4: so I agree. I think Chris Paul just by getting 421 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 4: to the finals did a lot to kind of cement himself. 422 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 4: And like, the bigger question is we talk point guards 423 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 4: like Chris Paul versus Harden all time to me and 424 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 4: not point guards just like contemporaries. 425 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:47,399 Speaker 3: I think Harden has the edge. 426 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 4: Chris Paul could have taken that edge with a title, 427 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 4: but now it's like Harden's got the MVP, got the 428 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 4: scoring title. I think Harden probably has the edge there. 429 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: Giannis was talking to his brother and said, I'm a champion. 430 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 1: No body could take this fucking ship from me, you. 431 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:03,040 Speaker 2: Know what I mean. 432 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:05,680 Speaker 1: There's something that comes with that ship, you know what 433 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 1: I mean. 434 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:08,920 Speaker 10: Like it may it may not have jumped him in 435 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:13,120 Speaker 10: the top five point guards ever or whatever, but there's 436 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:15,400 Speaker 10: something that comes with that ship, you know what I mean. 437 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:17,680 Speaker 1: And I think I think it's a big difference when 438 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 1: you look at people like Chuck would a chip. We've 439 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:22,560 Speaker 1: view I mean, Chuck was incredible, but Chuck would a chip? 440 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:25,919 Speaker 6: They're talking different on on TNT, you feel what I'm saying, and. 441 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 4: Dirk without a chip is talk would be talked about 442 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:29,280 Speaker 4: totally different. 443 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,399 Speaker 2: Right. The one part of it is like you create 444 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:34,520 Speaker 2: a set of fans that are gonna like fight to 445 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:37,240 Speaker 2: the death for you, and so you just naturally there's 446 00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 2: more voices being of not just on Twitter, like Phoenix 447 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,720 Speaker 2: would have had a fucking they name everything in the 448 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:45,639 Speaker 2: city after, They would have renamed the city after him 449 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:49,920 Speaker 2: if you want to you know what I mean? 450 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 4: This is gonna sound like an odd question, but it 451 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:53,920 Speaker 4: will come around. Am I the only person I apologize 452 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:54,360 Speaker 4: for not knowing? 453 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,440 Speaker 3: Am I the only person on here that as kids? 454 00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 3: You guys, anybody else have? 455 00:21:58,640 --> 00:21:58,720 Speaker 2: Oh? 456 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:01,200 Speaker 3: Mike?

And he 596 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:45,800 Speaker 5: was three for fourteen this whole series, but it didn't matter. 597 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 5: He kept defenses honest.

So that makes a bunch of sense, that 606 00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 1: makes much sense, but it's just wild. 607 00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 6: In the fourth quarter, Giannice gets filed and is a 608 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:13,160 Speaker 6: bucket either. 609 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 1: He fucking scored or got free throws. 610 00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:19,360 Speaker 6: He never left the paint butt NICKI, You know what 611 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 6: I mean is every time he. 612 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:23,760 Speaker 3: Went the pain and by the way, and this is. 613 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 4: And I know everyone you know, I shouldn't say when 614 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 4: a lot of people are like, well, you know Brooklyn 615 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 4: if they're healthy, which is a hell of an if 616 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 4: when one of your big three and Kyrie has been 617 00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 4: healthy for two playoff runs his whole career. 618 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 3: But set that aside. Yep. 619 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 4: Now that Yannis I think has unlocked something greater, Well, 620 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 4: we also have to recognize he did this against one 621 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 4: of the only teams in the league with a legit center. 622 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 4: Like if there was a like Ayton is Giannis's same 623 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 4: height and weighs more so like what people for example, 624 00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 4: I don't think it would be the case. But if 625 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 4: next year's finals were Bucks mAbs because Luca takes a 626 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,200 Speaker 4: quadruple leaf or they don't even draft, think that, Like 627 00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 4: what will Yannis do against a team that plays small? 628 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 4: What what did he do against Brooklyn? You know, more 629 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:17,280 Speaker 4: so than he did in that series? Like there aren't 630 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 4: many DeAndre Ayton's walking around like Embiid theoretically should give 631 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 4: him trouble. 632 00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 2: It's gonna be a good couple of drafts for big, fat, 633 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 2: mean guys. You know bullies. We look at for bullies. 634 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:33,080 Speaker 1: What he needed his draft A bully. That's what the. 635 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 2: That's crazy. That's six fouls. We need six hard fouls 636 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 2: in the second half. 637 00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 1: I think that fit. 638 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 2: Do you feel like Nick? That fit? That that fearlessness 639 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 2: comes a little bit from how unamerican he is. Like 640 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,480 Speaker 2: they're putting up all the interviews, his pre draft interviews, 641 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 2: and he was saying, even as he was preparing to 642 00:30:57,680 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 2: be a first round draft pick, his dream was to 643 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 2: be any If you talk to American kids, and I'm 644 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:06,200 Speaker 2: I'm not one of those guys you criticize AE whatever else. 645 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 2: If you talk to kids, no one in their draft 646 00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 2: prep is saying my dream is to make it to 647 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,800 Speaker 2: the NBA. Their dream is I want to be like 648 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:16,719 Speaker 2: this player. I want this accomplishment. Yannis just wanted to 649 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 2: get to the league and feed his parents and his 650 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 2: brothers know what I mean. And so you do feel 651 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 2: like there's a joy in everything he does, that everything 652 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:29,480 Speaker 2: is gravy, and he understands that more than most players. 653 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 3: Well you mentioned his brothers. I think all of that. 654 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 4: I also think it might be sneaky important not only 655 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 4: that his brother is on the bucks, but that it's 656 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:45,320 Speaker 4: his big brother.

And the 881 00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:23,480 Speaker 4: other one is the press conference right before the playoffs, 882 00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:26,200 Speaker 4: he was asked, He's like, how can you guarantee that 883 00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:29,040 Speaker 4: these playoffs will go differently than the last two? 884 00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:32,840 Speaker 3: And he paused and he goes, oh, I can't guarantee that. 885 00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:35,640 Speaker 3: He's like, I don't know.

I think he's like, it absolutely could end 888 00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:43,279 Speaker 2: a way that it's ended before. Like that's very possible, right, 889 00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:44,120 Speaker 2: He's like, it could. 890 00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:45,520 Speaker 3: He was like, but I try not to get too 891 00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:47,680 Speaker 3: high or too low. And he kept that mindset. 892 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:50,360 Speaker 4: And Tyler, I think you've pointed out on Twitter a 893 00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:52,600 Speaker 4: few times, like people have tried to hit him with 894 00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:56,440 Speaker 4: arrows like, oh, you said Katie's the best player in 895 00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:56,840 Speaker 4: the world. 896 00:42:56,960 --> 00:43:00,239 Speaker 3: That means this.
