We were like, Jack, 61 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 3: come on, now, you could do something here. You might 62 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 3: be able to close it. Or you're like, we're not 63 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 3: doing that. 64 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 5: My heart rate never got above forty five? 65 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 3: Are you? Are you an Olympian with that such a 66 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:27,959 Speaker 3: low base arts. 67 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 5: But I'm already seeing some sixers fans being like, I 68 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:33,519 Speaker 5: just think we run it back. We get a three 69 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 5: and D guy, we get a new coach, and we're 70 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 5: good and uh, you know, arrested development boys. They were 71 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 5: not good. 72 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: In fact, they did not do us. I mean yeah, 73 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 1: I mean, and also credit to you know, the Celtics. 74 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 1: It's yea, they look they look they were ready. They 75 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 1: were ready, and y'all like on defense, you tried to 76 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 1: shut Jason Tatum down in a lot of different ways. 77 00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: But at times you're like, I don't know how committed 78 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 1: the Sixers weren't even playing defense. 79 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 7: They're like, I don't know how committed the Sixers were 80 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 7: to doing anything at that point. Honestly, like they had 81 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 7: some weird lapses, like towards the end of Game six 82 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 7: and towards the end of Game seven, it just looked 83 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,120 Speaker 7: like they were like, you know what, we're mailing it in. 84 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 3: We've come as far as we can. 85 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 7: We did what we could. You know, we gave people hope. 86 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,839 Speaker 7: His heart rate went to like forty five in league, right, 87 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:22,359 Speaker 7: you know. 88 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,559 Speaker 5: I mean that that felt like, I guess what happened 89 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,839 Speaker 5: in Game seven was what I kept expecting to happen 90 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:34,280 Speaker 5: throughout the series. My main takeaway is that Boston can 91 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,719 Speaker 5: be the best team in the league by a good margin, 92 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 5: but they just consider like aren't consistently for whatever reason. 93 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 2: Right. 94 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 5: And it's the same takeaway I had from the Hawked series. 95 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:49,919 Speaker 5: There are some quarters where they don't show up and 96 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 5: like play the way that their fans seem to know 97 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 5: they can that, you know, basketball fans, and like, I 98 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 5: still haven't heard like the closest I've heard to somebody 99 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 5: who just explaining it is like the Marcus Smart he's 100 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 5: the alpha, and so like everything starts running through him, 101 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,160 Speaker 5: and he takes some of the biggest shots and then 102 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 5: like the flow of the offense gets messed up and 103 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 5: then that affects their defensive effort or something. 104 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,280 Speaker 3: But we'll see, maybe they write it. 105 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 5: I know a lot of people seem to think like, 106 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:22,280 Speaker 5: all right, well, now that Tatum has figured it out, 107 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 5: hung fifty one on the Sixers, they're good. But my 108 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:30,480 Speaker 5: overall feeling these playoffs is that we keep being like, well, 109 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 5: now they've figured it out, the Nuggets have figured it out, 110 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 5: and the Nuggets have figured out the Lakers or Jason 111 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 5: Tatum has figured it out, and now he's going to 112 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 5: do that every game going forward, and that just hasn't 113 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 5: been the case. 114 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 7: It's like they you. 115 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:47,480 Speaker 5: Have a good game and then the other team, you know, 116 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 5: takes it up a notch and they're also trying to 117 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 5: beat you. So yeah, I don't know, they're I think 118 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 5: at their best. They are by far the best team 119 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,840 Speaker 5: in the NBA. Yeah, I just don't know what stops 120 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,719 Speaker 5: them from being that every night, which is not an 121 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 5: insult to them. It's hard to be the best team 122 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 5: in the NBA. It's just it's unclear, like what changes 123 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:11,479 Speaker 5: from game to game, just like it is with the 124 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 5: Sixers with Harden, Like, I, yeah, it looks like he's 125 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:18,480 Speaker 5: not trying, but there's something else, like that's that's happening 126 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 5: there that like their defensive adjustments that don't allow him 127 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 5: to like see the game the way he wants to 128 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 5: see it. 129 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think adding time Lord to the starting 130 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:30,720 Speaker 1: lineup was huge, Like seeing the effect he had over 131 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 1: like Derek White, I was like, it's he had like 132 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: he had a presence that it felt like was affecting 133 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 1: Embad's confidence at times. 134 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 7: And I was like, wow, I don't know if they 135 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:40,280 Speaker 7: could do that in that in this heat series though. 136 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 7: That's the that's the one thing I'm worried about, Like 137 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 7: I don't think they can go big like that. They 138 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 7: probably have to start one of him or Horford. 139 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:49,720 Speaker 5: But yeah, this is a tough one because this is 140 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 5: a series that the listener already has like a full 141 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 5: game on us, right because this is coming out tomorrow, 142 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,159 Speaker 5: so they they've seen a game. But I really have 143 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 5: a strong feeling that the Heat are being vastly underrated 144 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 5: in the like the level of underdog that the Heat 145 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:09,080 Speaker 5: are in Vegas is wild. But y, yeah, you just 146 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 5: a lot of like the NBA experts seem to just 147 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 5: be doing the well. The Celtics have figured it out 148 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 5: and now they're going to be the team we know 149 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 5: they can be. 150 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, and they very well could. But then also, like 151 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 1: I think there's something to the revenge plot line and 152 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 1: like even Jimmy Butler's words last year when he was 153 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 1: just basically like, no, we're going to come right back 154 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 1: and we are going to do it this time, and 155 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: he they've they've been. 156 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 6: True to their word. 157 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 2: But yeah, it'll be. 158 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 3: It will definitely be. 159 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:39,239 Speaker 1: I hopefully we're not being like and they were blown 160 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 1: out by fifty, But I think I think there is 161 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 1: something there. What like, as how you looking at this 162 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 1: Eastern Conference final matchup. 163 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 7: Yeah, I agree with y'all. I think like it's as 164 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 7: someone said, there was a four percent chance the Heat 165 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 7: would win this series, something along the lines of that, 166 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 7: and I just think that's that's ridiculous, Like, yeah, the 167 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 7: Heat have all the like, all the playoff type guys 168 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 7: that you could want on a roster, like I know 169 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 7: Warriors fans would have loved the Kevin Love on their 170 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:10,640 Speaker 7: team or a Kyle Lowry on their team or whoever. 171 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 7: Those are just guys that are gonna do well in 172 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 7: a playoff series, you know, And I think that's gonna 173 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 7: push them over the edge in certain categories. I don't 174 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 7: know if they're gonna win this series, but it's definitely 175 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 7: not gonna be a five game series or a six 176 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 7: game series. I feel like this goes seven, to be 177 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 7: honest with you, just like it did last year. And 178 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 7: that's just because of Jimmy and Bam and the other 179 00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 7: guys that I just mentioned that are just playoff dogs, 180 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 7: Like they really really know how to win in a 181 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 7: playoff setting, how to carve out an advantage. I think 182 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,440 Speaker 7: that stuff is so important, is like when things aren't 183 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:44,079 Speaker 7: going right for you in the playoffs, how are you 184 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 7: going to figure out a way to just will how 185 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 7: to win? And they do that very very consistently. With Boston. 186 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 7: You sort of mentioned it earlier with like why they 187 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 7: go through these flows and sometimes they're completely off and 188 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,719 Speaker 7: sometimes they're you know, the best team in the NBA. 189 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 7: A lot of that has to do a shoot, Like 190 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,840 Speaker 7: they rely on the three point shots so much and 191 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:07,559 Speaker 7: they don't have a legitimate way of getting their offense 192 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 7: going other ways. So if they're hitting their shots, yeah, 193 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 7: they look like the best team in the NBA. If 194 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 7: they don't, you know, they're going gets tough and right. Yeah, 195 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 7: I think that probably applies in this series too. 196 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:24,199 Speaker 5: Yeah, we'll see I mean the coaching, like they're going 197 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 5: against one of the best coaches. They're going against somebody 198 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:31,319 Speaker 5: who has been able to bend other series so far 199 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 5: this season to his will and Jimmy Butler. So I 200 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 5: don't know, the Celtics as always could just be that 201 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 5: team that we know they can be for the whole thing. 202 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 5: But for some reason, the series seems like I'm leaning 203 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:49,839 Speaker 5: heat on this series, even having seen what they did 204 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:51,960 Speaker 5: in Game seven against the Sixers, I just think the 205 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 5: Sixers were. 206 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 3: Not the team to do it. 207 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 1: So you just think over seven games that they will 208 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 1: the edge will come out with you know, the coaching 209 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:02,840 Speaker 1: and the will of some of these players. 210 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, and I think, I mean, I definitely think Mazzola, 211 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 5: the Celtics coach, you know, got better and is one 212 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 5: of the reasons that they won that series against the Sixers. 213 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 5: I think he made some really smart adjustments. It's always 214 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 5: tough because like Tatum is young and clearly still figuring 215 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:23,679 Speaker 5: things out, and so yeah, maybe he did just figure 216 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 5: things out in that game seven and now he's going 217 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 5: to be unstoppable. But yeah, there's just something about what's 218 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 5: happened so far, and like when I'm listening to other 219 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:35,119 Speaker 5: people talk about this series, it seems like the mistakes 220 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 5: that they're making are the ones we keep talking about 221 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 5: on this show, where it's like Celtics have figured it out, 222 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,679 Speaker 5: and like the thing that's been happening so far, like 223 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:48,199 Speaker 5: the heat, this thing's over right, Like they right right, 224 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 5: They're not going to keep doing what they've been doing 225 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 5: up to this point, and the Celtics will keep doing 226 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 5: or will stop doing what they've been doing up to 227 00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 5: this point, and you know, suddenly just put it together 228 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 5: and win four games in a row like play as 229 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 5: well as they can, and it just feels like that 230 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 5: hasn't been what we've seen so far. So yeah, we 231 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 5: shall see Celtics fans getting my mencheese. I know you will. 232 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,719 Speaker 1: Getting my men cheese because they're getting fro yo. I 233 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 1: don't know if that's too regional for. 234 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 7: I got that reference. I was like talking to someone 235 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:24,839 Speaker 7: about how menchies used to be the thing in high 236 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 7: school and nobody does that anymore. Not nobody even goes 237 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 7: to any you know what. 238 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, look, this isn't a commercial, but hey, we're about 239 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 1: to hit you with some commercials because we're about to 240 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 1: take a break and we'll be right back after this. 241 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,440 Speaker 3: And we're back. Jackie had some additional thoughts. 242 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, what one additional thought is just super producer Jabari 243 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 5: pulled like, how the Vegas odds for this Eastern Conference 244 00:11:56,800 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 5: Finals compares two past series. So negative five hundred means 245 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 5: that you need to bet five hundred dollars to win 246 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 5: one hundred dollars, which means that like, you're a huge favorite. 247 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 5: So the Celtic are basically as favored to win this 248 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 5: series as any team in the Eastern Conference over the 249 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 5: past five years. So then the Bucks versus the Hawks 250 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:27,840 Speaker 5: were the only other time that somebody was minus five hundred, 251 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 5: and that was when everyone was like the Hawks, Wow, 252 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 5: how did they even get here? And The way they 253 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 5: got here was they beat the Sixers NBA. The Sixers imploded. 254 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 1: Let's talk about some good fortunes, huh, because somebody hit 255 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 1: the Wemby lottery and that's somebody is the San Antonio Spurs. 256 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:54,880 Speaker 5: Do we think he really was that happy that the 257 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 5: Spurs won? Do we think he just knew heading in 258 00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,840 Speaker 5: like I've got to pretend like I'm happy with whatever 259 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 5: comes out here, or nah? 260 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 7: They know beforehand, like they do the draw beforehand, so 261 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 7: all of them know. If see this is funny. I 262 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,080 Speaker 7: was watching it on TV on mute because I was 263 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 7: I was at a baseball game and you could just 264 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 7: see the reactions of the dudes when they're introducing them, 265 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:18,679 Speaker 7: and in that moment you can find out who won 266 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 7: the lottery. In that one second they showed the person. 267 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:25,440 Speaker 7: The Spurs guy was cheesing like he was smiling like crazy, 268 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 7: and I'm like, they won the lottery. 269 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 3: They yeah, he was. 270 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 7: He was going like even before they even did the 271 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 7: fourteenth pick, he was smiling like crazy.

They do it like an hour beforehand, 274 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 7: and then they do the like, you know presentation. 275 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 3: I guess on TV where's the intrigue. 276 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:47,440 Speaker 5: I thought he was just happy because he was a 277 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:48,560 Speaker 5: billionaire's son. 278 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, just generally happy for his well, generally happy versus 279 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 1: he knew something. We did it, Yeah, I mean former 280 00:13:57,640 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 1: guest shout out Warren Shaw. He called it on the 281 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 1: show earlier this year. He said it was going to 282 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 1: the Spurs. 283 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 3: I mean, not that. 284 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,679 Speaker 5: I mean, so people have known since then. Yeah, I 285 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,560 Speaker 5: guess I believe Warren knew somehow somehow. 286 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:10,440 Speaker 1: But yeah, I think we were talking about where we'd 287 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 1: like to see him. 288 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 3: I personally would. 289 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 1: Have it would have been cool to see Detroit just 290 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 1: turn into like a something really fun to watch again. 291 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 3: But I don't know if be dealing with pop that 292 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 3: I like that.

But I 304 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 7: would have been cool if portl And got it because 305 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 7: it would have just made what happened in the summer 306 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 7: a lot more difficult for them. It's like, Okay, do 307 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 7: we is Wenby good enough for us to contend with 308 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 7: Dame and we can just hope that he's good enough 309 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:13,400 Speaker 7: right out the gate so we can go ahead and 310 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 7: do this right now, or do we have to just 311 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 7: trade off Dame, start over and build around Wemby. I 312 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 7: just think that would have been a cool kind of 313 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 7: thing to think about. And then also Portland's been robbed 314 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 7: so many times in the draft and you think about 315 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 7: like MJ, you think about Greg Oden, you think about 316 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 7: all that, right, so it would have been cool for 317 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:32,160 Speaker 7: them to get it with the Spurs.

It's also like an opportunity for 342 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 5: him to, you know, continue to grow up in a 343 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 5: smaller community, which is which is probably nice. 344 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 3: Right. 345 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm sure his life will be very normal. 346 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 7: The funniest part of the whole draft process was his 347 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 7: reaction to hit Houston not getting the first overall pick. 348 00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 7: Did you guys see that? 349 00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 6: No? 350 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 7: So he he like went like he did like the 351 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 7: Kobe when Kobe hit the game, or he did this 352 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 7: like he fis pumped like crazy when Houston didn't get 353 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 7: the number one pick. He was really happy about that. 354 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,320 Speaker 7: I can't blame him. I honestly can't blame him for that. 355 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 7: But yeah, yeah, wow, Okay, Well he let it be known. 356 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:15,200 Speaker 3: He let it be known. 357 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:17,119 Speaker 1: How do you feel about his transition to the league. 358 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 1: Is it going to be seamless? Is it going to 359 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 1: be fraught with chaos? Is his body will. 360 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 3: It hold up? Any concerns for you? Gus? 361 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 7: The one question not even concerned because I think Wemby 362 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 7: will be a good player. We were talking about this yesterday. 363 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,160 Speaker 7: But like the base level of what Wemby is as 364 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 7: a player, just because he's seven foot four, he has 365 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:40,159 Speaker 7: incredible foot speed, He's still like going to be a 366 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 7: great defender. Even if none of the offensive stuff projects 367 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 7: and actually happens at the professional level, He's still going 368 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 7: to be a potentially all time defender. The health concerns 369 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 7: are always going to be there, like like whether his 370 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:55,119 Speaker 7: body can sustain, But apparently his team has been doing 371 00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 7: a really really good job of like building out his muscles, 372 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 7: like I saw this video of him and he's like 373 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 7: without socks on. He's doing like these leg crawls, uh 374 00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 7: to warm up, and it's for some reason, it like 375 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 7: it builds the smaller muscles in your feet so that 376 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 7: he doesn't get foot injuries and ankle injuries ligament problems. 377 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 7: So I don't know. I think I think we're good 378 00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:21,640 Speaker 7: on the health side of things. My question is about 379 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:25,160 Speaker 7: the hype. And I've been thinking about this because of Lebron, 380 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:28,160 Speaker 7: because like the Zion hype for a lot of people 381 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:31,160 Speaker 7: in Canada, like it was Wiggins, right, it was crazy 382 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 7: to see what would happen with him. Not a lot 383 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 7: of guys end up living up to that hype. Bron 384 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:40,320 Speaker 7: is maybe the only guy in my line. Yeah, yeah, 385 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,840 Speaker 7: and Kareem and like Kobe as well exactly. 386 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 3: I mean there are a lot of not this coming. Yeah, yeah, 387 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 3: I like that. 388 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,159 Speaker 7: And it was the thirteenth overall pick, like he's not 389 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:52,440 Speaker 7: he wasn't gonna. 390 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,199 Speaker 3: Sorry, I'm getting a little Laker centric. 391 00:18:55,720 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 5: But it's Yeah, I think we like the Lebron thing 392 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 5: is I think what super underrated that he was able 393 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:09,840 Speaker 5: to do it. Yeah, Like yeah, with you know, just 394 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 5: growing up in it's like growing up in Truman Show, 395 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:16,560 Speaker 5: you know, it's like just all all eyes were on him. 396 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,879 Speaker 5: There were billboards in his hometown that were aimed only 397 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:24,120 Speaker 5: at recruiting him to Nike and Adidas say with putting up, 398 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 5: please sign with us, sir, young fourteen year old, and 399 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 5: like that. It is a miracle that he didn't go 400 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:39,159 Speaker 5: crazy and that he ended up like delivering on the hype. 401 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 5: So I don't know in that respect, I feel like 402 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:44,119 Speaker 5: from one side of that, I'm like, I think we're 403 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 5: probably overrating how sure of a thing this is, because 404 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:50,200 Speaker 5: Lebron like made it through that and was was so great. 405 00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 5: On the other hand, it's just like sometimes you know, 406 00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 5: and like Lebron was the last time that the hype 407 00:19:56,119 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 5: was this great and people just new, just had a feeling, 408 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,399 Speaker 5: And it does feel similar here where it's just the 409 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:06,879 Speaker 5: only problem is, of course he's seven to four and 410 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:09,359 Speaker 5: plays like a point guard, and I do worry about 411 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 5: the health stuff, Yeah, yeah. 412 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 2: For sure. 413 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:13,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, but it'll be wild to see him take two 414 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:15,920 Speaker 1: steps from half court and then already be finishing. 415 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 2: Yeah. 416 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 7: Yeah. 417 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 5: Like that's the thing about Lebron is that his greatest 418 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:22,639 Speaker 5: skill was his indestructibility like that, and that was not 419 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,119 Speaker 5: something anyone could have seen coming, you know, right. 420 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,199 Speaker 1: Right right, yeah, I mean like Wenby's he's going a 421 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 1: euro step from the other like foul line, yeah, and 422 00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:31,400 Speaker 1: finishing like yeah. 423 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 7: The crazy part is, like le Bron, the health is 424 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 7: the most underrated part of it. Like it takes it 425 00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 7: takes a special type of human being to be able 426 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 7: to play twenty years of professional basketball and not miss 427 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 7: I mean he's missed some time in the last couple 428 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 7: of years, but you know what I mean, Like he's 429 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 7: been pretty healthy throughout his career. That's that's rare, you know. Yeah, 430 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 7: I don't know. I guess that's the one concern I 431 00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 7: have Wemby.

Forty ten 514 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:29,480 Speaker 1: three steals, two blocks. 515 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:31,920 Speaker 3: He was he was playing like. 516 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:34,160 Speaker 1: I couldn't really ask much more from him. I could 517 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:36,119 Speaker 1: have asked for a little bit more from some other players. 518 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 1: But I mean that just shows you like the level 519 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 1: in this series. But like, hey, shout out to ruy 520 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:43,720 Speaker 1: Haachimura came in and he did his thing. 521 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:43,960 Speaker 8: Man. 522 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 3: He was like, when we needed a shot to far 523 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 3: or three or something, Rui was there for it. 524 00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 7: He had the main assignment on Jokic in the fourth 525 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 7: quarter too, Yeah, he was he was the guy guarding him, 526 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 7: and then it allowed Ady to be the guy who 527 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:55,640 Speaker 7: was kind of roaming the paint. 528 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:56,160 Speaker 3: Yeah. 529 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,880 Speaker 7: I feel like the Nuggets can counted that pretty easily though, 530 00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 7: by pulling pulling Gordon out and then just playing five out. 531 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:06,480 Speaker 7: But I mean, if I'm a Lakers fan, mm hmm, 532 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 7: I would say that this is I mean, it's not 533 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,159 Speaker 7: a win because you don't have a win. It's not 534 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:15,160 Speaker 7: a win, but you got pretty close and didn't play 535 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 7: the greatest game in the first half. 536 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, but I would sound like I would sound like 537 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 1: a true Lakers fan to be like, yeah, I know 538 00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:24,680 Speaker 1: we lost, but we won though, really right now, we lost, 539 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:25,879 Speaker 1: they played fantastic. 540 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 3: We played well too. They were just that much better. 541 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 1: And I honestly, in the beginning I felt like we 542 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 1: had I think we had a hangover from beating the Warriors, Like, 543 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 1: I don't think we were really focused enough for what 544 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 1: was happening, because I don't I felt like we weren't 545 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 1: properly respecting the shooting of the Nuggets at first, uh, 546 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 1: and we got punished pretty bad. And then suddenly we're like, 547 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 1: oh right, we we have to engage or else. You know, 548 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:52,479 Speaker 1: this thing's in a fully get away from us. 549 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:55,879 Speaker 5: I haven't watched enough Nuggets to be honest to know 550 00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 5: how out of the ordinary that shooting display was. 551 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 7: It wasn't out of the ordinary, so that that's a problem. Yeah, 552 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 7: Like to be fair, the Lakers were giving them pretty 553 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 7: wide open shots in the first half, like they were 554 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 7: helping off a lot and like sending a lot of 555 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:14,880 Speaker 7: help at Yokic, which doesn't make sense because that's that's 556 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,159 Speaker 7: what they want them to do, Like you send a 557 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 7: double team at Yokic. 558 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,439 Speaker 3: Oh cool, all right, you know he makes the right 559 00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 3: pass every time? 560 00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, So I don't know. I think I think 561 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 7: part of that is, like this is the Nuggets, this 562 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,640 Speaker 7: is the this is the way they play every single game. 563 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 7: They're probably going to be just as good in Game two, 564 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,000 Speaker 7: and it's up to the Lakers to hit those shots, 565 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 7: like Austin Reeves in the second half was awesome in 566 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 7: that fourth quarter in great shots. You need that type 567 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:41,760 Speaker 7: of performance from him. You need d Lo to start 568 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:44,200 Speaker 7: hitting his shots too, Like you just need everybody to 569 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:45,919 Speaker 7: be on point when it comes to the shooting. If 570 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 7: they can't keep up, you know, math wise, the math battle, 571 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 7: they they probably end up losing the series. 572 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:55,119 Speaker 5: Quick maths, quick maths. The only thing that's giving me 573 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 5: faith is Lebron being able to figure it out. 574 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:01,639 Speaker 3: Like, yeah, he'll figure it out, he'll figure out. 575 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 7: He does. 576 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,480 Speaker 5: He's the exception. He really does seem to figure things out. 577 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 5: And like, so I don't I watched that first game 578 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 5: and I'm like, man, if that if that's how the 579 00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:13,400 Speaker 5: Nuggets always shoot, I don't know how the Lakers win 580 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:18,119 Speaker 5: that series. After Game two of Golden State, both I 581 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:22,159 Speaker 5: and Zach Lowe were like, well, the Lakers can't win 582 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:25,159 Speaker 5: this series now, right, Like they're you know, the the 583 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 5: Golden State figured out what to do, how to spread 584 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 5: the floor. There's no way that they're coming back from this. 585 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:32,920 Speaker 5: And the Lakers won and six, So I don't know. 586 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:37,400 Speaker 5: They It'll be interesting to see I watching this playoffs, 587 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 5: both all the Lakers series, but also watching something about 588 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 5: that six or Celtics series really because because it was 589 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:49,840 Speaker 5: like such a it haunts a weird mental battle. Well 590 00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:53,160 Speaker 5: even like watching the Celtics, who like are so good 591 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 5: at their best, but like just have these weird swoons, 592 00:27:56,840 --> 00:28:00,440 Speaker 5: like gave me an appreciation for Lebron and just like 593 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 5: his ability to always just eventually like figure out what 594 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 5: like the smartest strategy and when to like peak and 595 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:15,159 Speaker 5: all these weird subtle things that actually I have a. 596 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 7: Little bit of a take here. I don't know if 597 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,440 Speaker 7: you guys will agree with this. So I think a 598 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 7: lot of people bring up parody, which is totally true. 599 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,159 Speaker 7: The league is more even than it has been in 600 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:26,439 Speaker 7: a couple of years. But like the byproduct of parody 601 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 7: is that a lot of these teams aren't as good 602 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:32,200 Speaker 7: as we've seen before. So a lot of these teams 603 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 7: are sort of made like they're not the greatest they 604 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 7: could potentially be. Boston isn't as good as whatever. Others 605 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 7: like the Warriors in you know, at the height of 606 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 7: their prime, and then the Cavaliers at their prime. So 607 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 7: a guy like Brown who is so used to playing 608 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,960 Speaker 7: at that level of competition, facing teams like the Warriors, 609 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 7: facing teams that he's at to, you know, topple before, 610 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 7: it's easier for him to try to figure out and 611 00:28:57,280 --> 00:29:00,320 Speaker 7: adjust and then also point out a weakness because yeah, 612 00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 7: it's just these teams aren't as good as they were before. 613 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 7: It's it's better because the product is more fun. You 614 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:08,480 Speaker 7: don't know what's going to happen, it's more unexpected. But 615 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,720 Speaker 7: parody has sort of created this this weird paradox. I 616 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 7: guess that it's the teams aren't as good as they 617 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 7: were even five years. 618 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 1: Ago, six years ago, whatever it is, right, Yeah, but 619 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 1: if the Nuggets keep playing like that, just hold on 620 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 1: to your butts. 621 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 3: That's all I can say. 622 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:28,440 Speaker 1: Uh So, yeah, good luck to those Lakers because I'm 623 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 1: gonna need it if the Nuggets keep playing like that. 624 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 3: Uh and my god, I mean like the way Yokas 625 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:33,640 Speaker 3: is playing, I was like. 626 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 1: Is that the m v P. 627 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, yeah, he's he's better than As an Embiid fan, 628 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 5: I can't I can confidently tell you, and I'm sure 629 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 5: a lot of Sixers fans won't won't love it, but 630 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 5: he's way better than Embiid, Like Embeid. 631 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:49,920 Speaker 7: Probably should have won last year and probably should have 632 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 7: won this year. 633 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 2: That's what a lot of people said. 634 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 5: But man, he's good. 635 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 1: It was like, yeah, it was basically the like the 636 00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:00,720 Speaker 1: Leonardo DiCaprio equivalent, the you know the revenue oscar that you. 637 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 7: Have the bottom dash one, right, Yeah, that's not. 638 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:07,320 Speaker 3: His best one though.
