WEBVTT - The Draymond Green Show w/Baron Davis - Rockets-Warriors Game 3, Jalen Green's trash talk & Jimmy Butler's injury

0:00:01.280 --> 0:00:01.960
<v Speaker 1>The volume.

0:00:11.240 --> 0:00:13.760
<v Speaker 2>What's good, Welcome back to the Draymond Green Show with

0:00:13.840 --> 0:00:17.119
<v Speaker 2>my brother the Legend d D. What's happening to my dog?

0:00:17.720 --> 0:00:20.840
<v Speaker 1>What's something I bro? How you feeling man? Big win?

0:00:21.160 --> 0:00:24.479
<v Speaker 1>How you feeling big Tom ship Man? That was a

0:00:24.480 --> 0:00:24.919
<v Speaker 1>big win?

0:00:25.040 --> 0:00:31.200
<v Speaker 2>You know, come back home and maintain home court without Jimmy. Incredible.

0:00:31.400 --> 0:00:33.720
<v Speaker 2>That's how you That's how you hold it down. I

0:00:33.760 --> 0:00:34.960
<v Speaker 2>love the way we showed up.

0:00:35.840 --> 0:00:38.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, show up. The defense really showed up. It

0:00:38.760 --> 0:00:42.760
<v Speaker 1>was a big win, especially without Jimmy. Steph went crazy.

0:00:43.280 --> 0:00:48.159
<v Speaker 1>That was probably one of the best Steph Curry packages

0:00:48.800 --> 0:00:53.800
<v Speaker 1>that I've seen from not just killing you with the three,

0:00:53.840 --> 0:00:59.880
<v Speaker 1>but from a league guard perspective, a playmaker perspective, controlling

0:01:00.080 --> 0:01:03.960
<v Speaker 1>the game tempo. He put all that together.

0:01:04.480 --> 0:01:06.600
<v Speaker 2>I think he did that. He wasn't turning the ball over.

0:01:06.720 --> 0:01:09.920
<v Speaker 2>That was me turning over, right, but he was. He

0:01:10.000 --> 0:01:12.679
<v Speaker 2>wasn't turning the ball over, and he made every single

0:01:12.720 --> 0:01:14.920
<v Speaker 2>play when we had nothing going on offensively. He just

0:01:14.959 --> 0:01:17.800
<v Speaker 2>willed us because the defense. I think the defense was there,

0:01:17.840 --> 0:01:20.360
<v Speaker 2>Like at one point, I think it was maybe six

0:01:20.400 --> 0:01:22.120
<v Speaker 2>minutes to go in the half, five minutes to go

0:01:22.160 --> 0:01:24.560
<v Speaker 2>and a half and they had thirty seven points and

0:01:24.640 --> 0:01:26.959
<v Speaker 2>we had twenty four to twenty six or something like that.

0:01:27.280 --> 0:01:29.560
<v Speaker 2>But we knew we couldn't hit any shots, and so

0:01:30.880 --> 0:01:33.040
<v Speaker 2>Steve said in that time out, He's like, Yo, our

0:01:33.080 --> 0:01:35.880
<v Speaker 2>defense is holding up. Just make sure the defense keep

0:01:35.920 --> 0:01:40.040
<v Speaker 2>holding up. We will find the rhythm offensively. And we couldn't.

0:01:40.280 --> 0:01:44.760
<v Speaker 2>But Chef got going and he just willed us there

0:01:44.800 --> 0:01:48.920
<v Speaker 2>to end that second half. That's second quarter, and we

0:01:48.960 --> 0:01:51.000
<v Speaker 2>went in the high time of three going in, I

0:01:51.040 --> 0:01:53.080
<v Speaker 2>mean down three, going in down three, we were like,

0:01:53.280 --> 0:01:57.080
<v Speaker 2>we're good, like because they weren't scoring the ball and

0:01:57.120 --> 0:02:01.080
<v Speaker 2>we didn't play well and we're down three. So he

0:02:01.280 --> 0:02:06.080
<v Speaker 2>dominated the game like he completely controlled everything, even with

0:02:06.160 --> 0:02:08.920
<v Speaker 2>the blitz. You know, the blitz is the blitz is

0:02:08.960 --> 0:02:14.040
<v Speaker 2>made to speech you up like he was making the ball. Yeah, absolutely,

0:02:14.120 --> 0:02:17.360
<v Speaker 2>he was in total control. He got he got whatever

0:02:17.400 --> 0:02:19.359
<v Speaker 2>it was that he wanted. If he wanted to make

0:02:19.360 --> 0:02:21.320
<v Speaker 2>the pass and the blitz, he made the pass. He

0:02:21.360 --> 0:02:23.320
<v Speaker 2>wanted to beat the trap. He beat the trap like

0:02:23.720 --> 0:02:25.840
<v Speaker 2>he got whatever it was that he wanted when he

0:02:25.880 --> 0:02:28.400
<v Speaker 2>wanted to it was. It was beautiful to see, like

0:02:28.480 --> 0:02:33.800
<v Speaker 2>you said, especially with robins, as he calls himself with

0:02:33.800 --> 0:02:37.800
<v Speaker 2>with with Robin howt uh. It was beautiful to see

0:02:37.840 --> 0:02:40.320
<v Speaker 2>man just complete domination.

0:02:41.280 --> 0:02:46.200
<v Speaker 1>Speaking of Robin, Jimmy Butler, I g post thanks Batman

0:02:46.280 --> 0:02:50.359
<v Speaker 1>and team excluding Buddy. I would have to agree with that.

0:02:50.520 --> 0:02:53.560
<v Speaker 1>You know, I'll be picking on Buddy too. Damn Buddy,

0:02:54.680 --> 0:02:58.239
<v Speaker 1>wake you last well. Tonight Buddy showed up in a

0:02:58.400 --> 0:02:58.959
<v Speaker 1>major way.

0:02:59.120 --> 0:03:03.280
<v Speaker 2>Buddy hit big for eleven for three, he sat down

0:03:03.320 --> 0:03:07.600
<v Speaker 2>on the defensive end, he did like Buddy. Buddy played

0:03:07.600 --> 0:03:10.799
<v Speaker 2>great basketball tonight and Buddy got into it with Jason

0:03:10.880 --> 0:03:14.080
<v Speaker 2>Green at the end. Yeah, what was that about? You know,

0:03:14.240 --> 0:03:16.480
<v Speaker 2>we just call him Buddy out his name and stuff.

0:03:16.480 --> 0:03:19.400
<v Speaker 2>You know, I don't really I don't. I don't really

0:03:19.480 --> 0:03:21.960
<v Speaker 2>rock with that, you know what I'm saying. But it

0:03:22.080 --> 0:03:24.160
<v Speaker 2>is what it is. You know, we move on to

0:03:24.240 --> 0:03:26.839
<v Speaker 2>the next game. The game was over, we won the game.

0:03:26.880 --> 0:03:28.680
<v Speaker 2>We move on to the next game. Man, you know

0:03:28.720 --> 0:03:30.600
<v Speaker 2>how we rocking? Yeah?

0:03:30.639 --> 0:03:34.679
<v Speaker 1>I saw Jimmy on the bench being vocal talking to Kaminga,

0:03:34.760 --> 0:03:39.320
<v Speaker 1>talking to Buddy, talk about his presidence out there even

0:03:39.400 --> 0:03:43.480
<v Speaker 1>on the bench with those guys in that playoff environment

0:03:44.040 --> 0:03:47.720
<v Speaker 1>and what it means having him still as a presidence

0:03:47.760 --> 0:03:50.560
<v Speaker 1>over there on the bench for yourself and then for

0:03:50.640 --> 0:03:52.600
<v Speaker 1>the Comingias and the buddies.

0:03:52.760 --> 0:03:55.119
<v Speaker 2>It was huge because Jimmy just see the game differently,

0:03:55.160 --> 0:03:58.160
<v Speaker 2>you know. And although like, hey, when you're when you're

0:03:58.200 --> 0:04:01.560
<v Speaker 2>on a bench with a coach coaching staff, the last

0:04:01.560 --> 0:04:04.000
<v Speaker 2>thing you want is them coaching you up every play

0:04:04.160 --> 0:04:06.280
<v Speaker 2>like you just kind of But when you got a

0:04:06.320 --> 0:04:08.920
<v Speaker 2>teammate right there and they're coaching you up, it's a

0:04:08.920 --> 0:04:13.280
<v Speaker 2>totally different vibe. And so it was just another it

0:04:13.400 --> 0:04:16.560
<v Speaker 2>was just another coach on the bench. Uh that is

0:04:16.680 --> 0:04:19.080
<v Speaker 2>kind of talking every single play. You know what I'm

0:04:19.080 --> 0:04:22.279
<v Speaker 2>saying that he was locked into the game. He was,

0:04:22.800 --> 0:04:26.200
<v Speaker 2>you know, dropping jewels over there and things that he saw. Man,

0:04:26.240 --> 0:04:28.840
<v Speaker 2>it was it was great. Obviously we want them out

0:04:28.839 --> 0:04:31.960
<v Speaker 2>there on the floor, but you know that wasn't possible today.

0:04:32.000 --> 0:04:35.440
<v Speaker 2>So you take, uh what he was bringing on the bench,

0:04:35.520 --> 0:04:38.680
<v Speaker 2>you you you bottle that up however you can. He

0:04:38.760 --> 0:04:42.240
<v Speaker 2>walked in looking like Frank Lucas with the mink caught

0:04:42.279 --> 0:04:45.040
<v Speaker 2>on and started the game, So you knew he was coming.

0:04:45.600 --> 0:04:49.080
<v Speaker 2>He was he was coming to the bench to bring

0:04:49.120 --> 0:04:51.760
<v Speaker 2>a presence and he was definitely that presents of the bench.

0:04:51.800 --> 0:04:57.000
<v Speaker 2>Shout out to my guy friend, shut out Frank Lucas.

0:04:57.760 --> 0:05:03.840
<v Speaker 2>He had to allo pass right there. It was fire.

0:05:03.920 --> 0:05:05.640
<v Speaker 2>You know what I'm saying. You went with Frank walk

0:05:05.680 --> 0:05:09.680
<v Speaker 2>in looking like that, gotta get it done. He got hot,

0:05:11.200 --> 0:05:13.520
<v Speaker 2>was hitting right because come on, and he came out

0:05:13.520 --> 0:05:18.919
<v Speaker 2>of Oh boy, walk out there with a comforter on.

<v Speaker 1>You and Jalen Green? Yeah, I was getting into it. Uh,

0:05:48.920 --> 0:05:53.520
<v Speaker 1>And then Jalen Green said, you know, just talking. He

0:05:53.560 --> 0:05:57.520
<v Speaker 1>can't really do much of anything, so talking is his

0:05:57.760 --> 0:05:58.560
<v Speaker 1>only way.

0:05:59.560 --> 0:06:03.800
<v Speaker 2>Jayleen Grain on Draymond Grain, Yeah, no, that's cool. I

0:06:03.800 --> 0:06:08.800
<v Speaker 2>don't do much. That's fine. I don't do much. Just

0:06:08.839 --> 0:06:10.880
<v Speaker 2>do what I have to do. But I don't do much,

0:06:11.120 --> 0:06:14.440
<v Speaker 2>you know what I'm saying. So he was balling, no problem.

0:06:15.640 --> 0:06:18.839
<v Speaker 2>I'm happy he see it that way. That's incredible. Shout

0:06:18.839 --> 0:06:20.760
<v Speaker 2>out to him.

0:06:20.160 --> 0:06:23.919
<v Speaker 1>A lot of times those are like blanket statements fat

0:06:24.320 --> 0:06:28.200
<v Speaker 1>because you can start believing that and then I ain't

0:06:28.240 --> 0:06:29.000
<v Speaker 1>gonna say nothing.

0:06:29.560 --> 0:06:32.440
<v Speaker 2>That's how you get to ask, That's how you get

0:06:32.480 --> 0:06:32.839
<v Speaker 2>your ask.

0:06:33.279 --> 0:06:38.239
<v Speaker 1>There's a fine line between respect and disrespect. You gotta

0:06:38.279 --> 0:06:41.960
<v Speaker 1>be careful because they can't translate on the court as oh,

0:06:42.040 --> 0:06:44.279
<v Speaker 1>I don't feel like closing out, or I ain't gonna

0:06:44.320 --> 0:06:47.480
<v Speaker 1>try and box out, or I'm just gonna let him

0:06:47.520 --> 0:06:48.160
<v Speaker 1>drive to the hall.

0:06:48.680 --> 0:06:50.440
<v Speaker 2>So you know, be careful.

0:06:51.080 --> 0:06:54.080
<v Speaker 1>That's what I would say to the young FEMA, especially

0:06:54.120 --> 0:06:57.400
<v Speaker 1>in the playoffs, because it's just a different level. It's

0:06:57.440 --> 0:07:00.720
<v Speaker 1>a different level top and it's a different level of

0:07:00.880 --> 0:07:04.280
<v Speaker 1>talking and backing it up when it comes to the playoffs.

0:07:04.760 --> 0:07:08.599
<v Speaker 1>And we've seen that countless amount of times with really

0:07:08.680 --> 0:07:14.480
<v Speaker 1>talented players going to the media and almost giving that

0:07:14.720 --> 0:07:20.080
<v Speaker 1>energy out to themselves. I mean, you've seen it with PG,

0:07:20.320 --> 0:07:22.960
<v Speaker 1>You've seen it with t MAC. You gotta be careful,

0:07:23.320 --> 0:07:25.320
<v Speaker 1>especially when you're in battle and go be in the

0:07:25.360 --> 0:07:28.280
<v Speaker 1>series where you gotta battle it out. So let's talk

0:07:28.320 --> 0:07:32.240
<v Speaker 1>about this tech. Let's talk about this tech. Okay, First,

0:07:32.280 --> 0:07:37.800
<v Speaker 1>I thought we was gonna be more aware of our

0:07:37.920 --> 0:07:38.760
<v Speaker 1>technical file.

0:07:39.200 --> 0:07:45.760
<v Speaker 2>I was very aware of that, very aware. I'm like, bro,

0:07:45.880 --> 0:07:49.400
<v Speaker 2>you wanted that tech dude. That was the third or

0:07:49.400 --> 0:07:51.800
<v Speaker 2>fourth time somebody walking to me while I'm going for

0:07:51.840 --> 0:07:54.200
<v Speaker 2>a layup and it's not called. I had to get

0:07:54.240 --> 0:07:58.120
<v Speaker 2>that one, all right, because clearly you ain't called it yet.

0:07:58.560 --> 0:08:00.600
<v Speaker 2>You clearly ain't filling my press. So I'm gonna make

0:08:00.640 --> 0:08:04.480
<v Speaker 2>sure you feel my presence now. I definitely wanted that one,

0:08:04.880 --> 0:08:06.640
<v Speaker 2>and then you know, I move on. It was a

0:08:06.680 --> 0:08:09.640
<v Speaker 2>game changer, and I was like, I felt like that

0:08:09.640 --> 0:08:11.880
<v Speaker 2>one was needed in that moment, and I went and

0:08:11.880 --> 0:08:14.320
<v Speaker 2>I got it, and then we move on it. It

0:08:14.360 --> 0:08:17.040
<v Speaker 2>also turned me up, so it was great it did.

0:08:17.200 --> 0:08:19.480
<v Speaker 2>It was great. It turned me up. Like I knew

0:08:19.520 --> 0:08:22.120
<v Speaker 2>I needed that in that moment, and I did that

0:08:22.320 --> 0:08:27.000
<v Speaker 2>and it was incredible. And yeah, that one wasn't unnecessary.

0:08:27.040 --> 0:08:30.800
<v Speaker 2>That one was very necessary. Yeah, you ran ing down

0:08:30.840 --> 0:08:31.400
<v Speaker 2>on that one.

0:08:31.480 --> 0:08:34.040
<v Speaker 1>I was like, okay, joint one, fat teg. But it

0:08:34.160 --> 0:08:37.880
<v Speaker 1>did spark a fire in the defense. Defense in the

0:08:37.920 --> 0:08:41.679
<v Speaker 1>fourth quarter, Well, you got some really big defensive plays,

0:08:41.720 --> 0:08:44.280
<v Speaker 1>a block, a bunch of stops to flex in the

0:08:44.400 --> 0:08:46.320
<v Speaker 1>steel on Van Flick.

0:08:46.679 --> 0:08:49.880
<v Speaker 2>I mean, your instincts was bubbling, you was.

0:08:49.880 --> 0:08:53.800
<v Speaker 1>Covering right, you was covering Uh, you was an architect

0:08:53.960 --> 0:08:54.840
<v Speaker 1>on that defense.

0:08:55.040 --> 0:08:57.720
<v Speaker 2>What were you saying out there? You know, I think

0:08:57.760 --> 0:09:01.120
<v Speaker 2>when you that's not our third time planning. You know,

0:09:01.240 --> 0:09:03.880
<v Speaker 2>like once you start to get to game three and

0:09:03.960 --> 0:09:06.439
<v Speaker 2>four in the series, like there's not much that's going

0:09:06.520 --> 0:09:08.360
<v Speaker 2>to happen that's going to be a surprise, you know,

0:09:08.520 --> 0:09:10.920
<v Speaker 2>like you start to figure out what they like to

0:09:10.960 --> 0:09:13.920
<v Speaker 2>get to, what they like to go to, and stuff

0:09:13.960 --> 0:09:15.880
<v Speaker 2>ain't going well, you know, like you just start to

0:09:15.880 --> 0:09:20.120
<v Speaker 2>figure different things out. And so for me, like after

0:09:20.160 --> 0:09:23.320
<v Speaker 2>seeing a team the third time in a row, like

0:09:23.920 --> 0:09:26.800
<v Speaker 2>you gotta trust your instincts because more likely than not,

0:09:26.920 --> 0:09:29.720
<v Speaker 2>your instinct is going to be right if you watch them,

0:09:30.120 --> 0:09:32.280
<v Speaker 2>you know, if you study your stuff. And so I

0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:35.160
<v Speaker 2>trusted my instincts a lot, but also know like we

0:09:35.280 --> 0:09:37.520
<v Speaker 2>needed stops and we needed that win, and I knew

0:09:37.640 --> 0:09:39.760
<v Speaker 2>that I needed to come up big on the defensive

0:09:39.800 --> 0:09:43.200
<v Speaker 2>and I couldn't quite find my rhythm offensively, So what

0:09:43.280 --> 0:09:45.400
<v Speaker 2>are you going to do to impact the game? And

0:09:45.480 --> 0:09:47.200
<v Speaker 2>for me, that was like, all right, I'm about to

0:09:47.200 --> 0:09:48.839
<v Speaker 2>go down here. I'm gonna try to get every stop.

0:09:48.840 --> 0:09:50.679
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna try to get my hand in every play

0:09:51.280 --> 0:09:53.720
<v Speaker 2>in one way or another. And you know I was

0:09:53.760 --> 0:09:55.840
<v Speaker 2>able to cost some have it. You know, that last

0:09:55.840 --> 0:09:58.600
<v Speaker 2>play was probably the most fun, with getting the outlet

0:09:58.679 --> 0:10:02.079
<v Speaker 2>to GP off off the turn and over. You know,

0:10:02.400 --> 0:10:04.600
<v Speaker 2>but that was you know, that's just what it boils

0:10:04.600 --> 0:10:08.720
<v Speaker 2>down to. I saw that he had sought Jalen Green open,

0:10:08.920 --> 0:10:10.920
<v Speaker 2>so I saw it. I was, you know, I was

0:10:10.920 --> 0:10:13.319
<v Speaker 2>the last line of defense. You see. I just ran

0:10:13.400 --> 0:10:15.760
<v Speaker 2>away from the rem because I saw that he saw

0:10:15.840 --> 0:10:18.319
<v Speaker 2>him open and he turned his back, so I knew

0:10:18.360 --> 0:10:21.360
<v Speaker 2>he thought he'd still be open. I took off out

0:10:21.400 --> 0:10:23.080
<v Speaker 2>of there. I was able to come up with the

0:10:23.120 --> 0:10:25.960
<v Speaker 2>ball and get it off the GP and that put

0:10:25.960 --> 0:10:28.000
<v Speaker 2>the finishing touches on the game.

0:10:28.800 --> 0:10:31.240
<v Speaker 1>To me, it was a testament of why I thought

0:10:31.840 --> 0:10:34.160
<v Speaker 1>you should have been Defensive Player of the Year, but

0:10:34.240 --> 0:10:38.640
<v Speaker 1>you finished third SEC. Congratulations on that. But what is

0:10:38.679 --> 0:10:42.080
<v Speaker 1>the process like when it comes to hear he won

0:10:42.600 --> 0:10:46.959
<v Speaker 1>or where he placed, and what was your reaction when

0:10:46.960 --> 0:10:48.720
<v Speaker 1>you found out that you didn't win?

0:10:49.040 --> 0:10:52.120
<v Speaker 2>Interestingly enough, we all find out at the same time.

0:10:52.800 --> 0:10:55.560
<v Speaker 2>You find out when it releases on T and T.

0:10:56.400 --> 0:10:58.960
<v Speaker 2>I was gambling on the plane and I went on it.

0:10:59.120 --> 0:11:02.000
<v Speaker 2>I moved on, like you know, it ain't much you

0:11:02.000 --> 0:11:03.880
<v Speaker 2>can do about it the same my first rodeo. This

0:11:03.920 --> 0:11:06.640
<v Speaker 2>ain't my first time being in the race, you know,

0:11:06.760 --> 0:11:09.000
<v Speaker 2>feeling like I should win and not win. It ain't

0:11:09.040 --> 0:11:11.160
<v Speaker 2>the first time that's ever happened, you know. So this

0:11:13.080 --> 0:11:20.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure Dyson Daniels was crushed because I know that feeling. Yeah,

0:11:20.080 --> 0:11:22.040
<v Speaker 2>like your first time being in the running and you

0:11:22.080 --> 0:11:24.520
<v Speaker 2>don't come up with it Like I know that that feeling,

0:11:24.600 --> 0:11:28.440
<v Speaker 2>so I've experienced it before. If anything, I feel for

0:11:28.520 --> 0:11:30.920
<v Speaker 2>Dyson Dames, you know what I'm saying, because he had

0:11:30.920 --> 0:11:33.640
<v Speaker 2>a great defensive year and this is his first time

0:11:33.720 --> 0:11:37.240
<v Speaker 2>going through that. This is his first time experiencing that feeling.

0:11:37.280 --> 0:11:40.240
<v Speaker 2>The damn I didn't get it. I was like, I'm fine,

0:11:40.360 --> 0:11:44.480
<v Speaker 2>Like I'm moving on, like I've been through that before.

0:11:44.559 --> 0:11:47.200
<v Speaker 2>So no big deal with me. But I will say

0:11:47.559 --> 0:11:53.800
<v Speaker 2>congratulations to Evan Mobley Man. Yeah, that incredible. I've been

0:11:53.840 --> 0:11:56.680
<v Speaker 2>a fan of here since USC. I know you don't

0:11:56.760 --> 0:12:00.160
<v Speaker 2>like that name, but I've been a fan of you

0:12:00.200 --> 0:12:04.040
<v Speaker 2>know what I'm saying that to see him continue to grow, uh,

0:12:04.080 --> 0:12:07.600
<v Speaker 2>continue to become the player that everybody thought that he become.

0:12:08.360 --> 0:12:11.280
<v Speaker 2>I had so many conversations with Kenny last summer just

0:12:11.320 --> 0:12:14.280
<v Speaker 2>about what Evan Mobley can become and how to see

0:12:14.280 --> 0:12:16.280
<v Speaker 2>things like I'm happy as hell to see him get that,

0:12:16.440 --> 0:12:19.760
<v Speaker 2>So shout out to him, man, Darius Garland, them and

0:12:19.800 --> 0:12:22.719
<v Speaker 2>shit was throwing shade like they ain't none of that,

0:12:22.800 --> 0:12:24.800
<v Speaker 2>and don't be a clown, you know what I'm saying,

0:12:24.880 --> 0:12:27.800
<v Speaker 2>Like it is what it is. We was in the

0:12:27.880 --> 0:12:31.199
<v Speaker 2>running he wanted. That's great and the number one see

0:12:31.200 --> 0:12:35.360
<v Speaker 2>with the second best record in the NBA. Who mad

<v Speaker 2>at that? You know? So these little, you know, little

0:12:38.280 --> 0:12:43.200
<v Speaker 2>dudes throwing shade, Congratulations to him. You know, I was

0:12:43.240 --> 0:12:46.800
<v Speaker 2>surprised by Darius Garland throwing shade when he came on

0:12:46.800 --> 0:12:48.880
<v Speaker 2>on the podcast and there was us vouching for him

0:12:48.880 --> 0:12:50.880
<v Speaker 2>to be an All Star when he was begging. You know. So,

0:12:51.640 --> 0:12:53.600
<v Speaker 2>like I said, shout out to Evan Mobley. That was

0:12:54.200 --> 0:12:58.520
<v Speaker 2>super dope to see him win des Flair of the Year.

0:12:58.640 --> 0:13:00.880

<v Speaker 2>young guys. You know what I'm saying. I'm not one

0:13:03.480 --> 0:13:05.520
<v Speaker 2>of them guys that don't want to see young guys

0:13:05.559 --> 0:13:05.960
<v Speaker 2>do well.

0:13:06.520 --> 0:13:10.800
<v Speaker 1>If anything, welcome to the table. One shout out to

0:13:10.800 --> 0:13:14.400
<v Speaker 1>Avian Mobley. I think he had an amazing year he

0:13:14.559 --> 0:13:18.920
<v Speaker 1>was key clutch. He has been on the rise ever

0:13:19.000 --> 0:13:22.800
<v Speaker 1>since he stepped in the league and been reaching his potential.

0:13:22.920 --> 0:13:25.240
<v Speaker 1>So shout out to him for winning Defensive Player of

0:13:25.240 --> 0:13:28.840
<v Speaker 1>the Year. I always look out awards like that and say, Okay,

0:13:28.880 --> 0:13:31.760
<v Speaker 1>whoever didn't win, that doesn't mean you did not win.

0:13:31.880 --> 0:13:35.440
<v Speaker 1>That means you won too, because you're up there as

0:13:35.480 --> 0:13:37.480
<v Speaker 1>one of the best defenders in the league.

0:13:37.559 --> 0:13:39.920
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely, you don't win the war, you move on.

0:13:40.200 --> 0:13:43.840
<v Speaker 1>And I actually think it it motivated you, man, because

0:13:44.240 --> 0:13:46.400
<v Speaker 1>you just playing some hell of the defense out here

0:13:46.960 --> 0:13:47.880
<v Speaker 1>in Game three.

0:13:50.280 --> 0:13:53.559
<v Speaker 1>And if that's the case, I tell you, like, I

0:13:53.600 --> 0:13:54.840
<v Speaker 1>take that all day.

<v Speaker 2>Now for sure. Listen, you always gonna try to find

0:13:57.320 --> 0:14:00.800
<v Speaker 2>fuel and whatever you can. I will say I didn't

0:14:00.840 --> 0:14:03.559
<v Speaker 2>find a bush. If I want to lock guys down anyway,

0:14:03.640 --> 0:14:05.400
<v Speaker 2>that's kind of that's who I am, you know. I

<v Speaker 2>take pride in that. But if however you can so

<v Speaker 2>you know, like I said, it was obviously wanted to

0:14:14.480 --> 0:14:18.520

<v Speaker 2>hat because I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna do what

0:16:24.680 --> 0:16:27.840
<v Speaker 1>Talking about Elite you know, having Jimmy out, other players

0:16:27.840 --> 0:16:32.200
<v Speaker 1>stepping up the guard play in this game was huge.

0:16:32.680 --> 0:16:36.280
<v Speaker 1>Gary Payton second had eleven of a sixteen points in

0:16:36.320 --> 0:16:40.560
<v Speaker 1>the fourth quarter. Talk about his impact.

0:16:40.320 --> 0:16:42.320
<v Speaker 2>Man, I thought GP was huge. He's one of the

0:16:42.360 --> 0:16:45.960
<v Speaker 2>best finishers around the rim in the game for real. Uh,

0:16:46.040 --> 0:16:50.120
<v Speaker 2>you know, he he doesn't play the guard position for us,

0:16:50.520 --> 0:16:53.000
<v Speaker 2>and you know, me and Luna always joke with him

0:16:53.000 --> 0:16:55.680
<v Speaker 2>like gu a small ball five. You know, he got

0:16:55.720 --> 0:16:59.200
<v Speaker 2>every finish around the rim that every big wish they at,

0:16:59.480 --> 0:17:06.239
<v Speaker 2>you know, and like he is extremely impressive. Then you know,

0:17:06.280 --> 0:17:08.680
<v Speaker 2>he was getting those those doves to the rim, couple

0:17:08.880 --> 0:17:10.840
<v Speaker 2>tough finishes and then all of a sudden the trade

0:17:10.840 --> 0:17:13.840
<v Speaker 2>ball going in and we obviously know what he does

0:17:13.920 --> 0:17:16.000
<v Speaker 2>on the defensive end, you know, So when you're getting

0:17:16.000 --> 0:17:18.159
<v Speaker 2>that type of production from g on the offensive end

0:17:18.160 --> 0:17:20.320
<v Speaker 2>and already knowing what he's doing on the defensive end,

0:17:21.160 --> 0:17:24.520
<v Speaker 2>like you said with robbing out, it was great because

0:17:24.520 --> 0:17:26.919
<v Speaker 2>you needed that production from somewhere and it wasn't going

0:17:27.000 --> 0:17:29.680
<v Speaker 2>to be one guy. It gives you the production that

0:17:29.800 --> 0:17:32.120
<v Speaker 2>Jimmy gives you. But as a collective, we can all

0:17:32.160 --> 0:17:34.359
<v Speaker 2>do that and make up what he brings, you know,

0:17:34.440 --> 0:17:36.480
<v Speaker 2>as a collective group. And that's how it got to be.

0:17:36.560 --> 0:17:39.280
<v Speaker 2>When you missing one of your stars, and G was man.

0:17:39.359 --> 0:17:42.879
<v Speaker 2>G played some great basketball. He showed up, especially you

0:17:42.920 --> 0:17:46.120
<v Speaker 2>know with the shoulder bothering him, you know, from the

0:17:46.160 --> 0:17:49.679
<v Speaker 2>no call when he was tripped in Houston. Showed up

0:17:49.720 --> 0:17:51.399
<v Speaker 2>in a major way. Shout out to GP.

0:17:52.960 --> 0:17:56.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, talking about being a superstar in your role. He

0:17:56.840 --> 0:18:02.960
<v Speaker 1>embodied that tonight. The physicality in the three ball, finishing inside,

0:18:03.800 --> 0:18:06.920
<v Speaker 1>like he said, it steals the defense. It amazes me

0:18:07.640 --> 0:18:12.760
<v Speaker 1>someone that small can play, you know, on the defensive end,

0:18:12.800 --> 0:18:16.760
<v Speaker 1>can play with one and switched to five and try

0:18:16.800 --> 0:18:19.879
<v Speaker 1>and block the shot. I mean, his energy is is

0:18:20.640 --> 0:18:23.720
<v Speaker 1>incredible and it's just good to see my little dog

0:18:23.800 --> 0:18:28.440
<v Speaker 1>out there getting busy. Another one of my dog's Buddy,

0:18:29.320 --> 0:18:33.159
<v Speaker 1>he showed up for us today seventeen points. I know

0:18:33.200 --> 0:18:36.320
<v Speaker 1>he has a good relationship with Jimmy obviously with the tweet.

0:18:36.680 --> 0:18:40.440
<v Speaker 1>What did you say the buddy postgame about his performance

0:18:41.080 --> 0:18:44.440
<v Speaker 1>Game three? Because Buddy, Buddy is a funny personality, man,

0:18:44.480 --> 0:18:45.200
<v Speaker 1>that's my guy.

0:18:45.520 --> 0:18:48.399
<v Speaker 2>Buddy's hilarious, man. I know, I was just talking to

0:18:48.440 --> 0:18:52.760
<v Speaker 2>him really throughout the game. Buddy used to be like

0:18:53.119 --> 0:18:56.240
<v Speaker 2>you go say somethingbody like, he talks so fast. And

0:18:58.160 --> 0:19:00.440
<v Speaker 2>now he's coming up to me like that got you

0:19:00.560 --> 0:19:03.200
<v Speaker 2>the ball. When when Steven Adams was able to get

0:19:03.200 --> 0:19:06.399
<v Speaker 2>to steal I need to and I'm like, wow, Buddy,

0:19:06.480 --> 0:19:08.640
<v Speaker 2>like that is a huge step in the right direction.

0:19:09.680 --> 0:19:14.080
<v Speaker 2>You're coming to seek me to talk about. So, m

0:19:14.160 --> 0:19:18.800
<v Speaker 2>what Jimmy's doing must be working, because no, but Buddy, honestly, man,

0:19:18.840 --> 0:19:22.919
<v Speaker 2>he was huge. He hit big shots, timely threes, He

0:19:23.000 --> 0:19:26.439
<v Speaker 2>hit some very timely threes, and he was good on

0:19:26.440 --> 0:19:29.120
<v Speaker 2>the defensive end. It was good to see Buddy hot

0:19:29.119 --> 0:19:34.320
<v Speaker 2>that game. Like I said, need a collective guys stepping up,

0:19:34.760 --> 0:19:37.119
<v Speaker 2>and Buddy was right there in the mix for us.

0:19:37.359 --> 0:19:39.840
<v Speaker 2>We're gonna need him continue to play that way. Also

0:19:39.920 --> 0:19:42.480
<v Speaker 2>shout out to Steve because I know people was calling

0:19:42.520 --> 0:19:44.280
<v Speaker 2>for Steve, like, oh, why you're still playing Buddy, and

0:19:44.320 --> 0:19:47.880
<v Speaker 2>Steve's I'm going to continue to play Buddy. You saw

0:19:47.960 --> 0:19:50.640
<v Speaker 2>that's what his shot making ability. We need that shot

0:19:50.680 --> 0:19:53.200
<v Speaker 2>making ability out there on the floor. And a locked

0:19:53.240 --> 0:19:55.359
<v Speaker 2>in Buddy is a very good buddy. So we gonna

0:19:55.359 --> 0:19:58.240
<v Speaker 2>need Buddy continue to stay locked in like that. Shots

0:19:58.280 --> 0:20:00.560
<v Speaker 2>won't fall every single night, but when you're great shooter

0:20:00.680 --> 0:20:02.520
<v Speaker 2>like he is, they fore most nights.

0:20:02.920 --> 0:20:05.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he'll get open, he'll get open and he was

0:20:05.800 --> 0:20:07.280
<v Speaker 1>playing on the defensive end.

0:20:07.840 --> 0:20:09.080
<v Speaker 2>He was playing scrappy.

0:20:09.680 --> 0:20:12.600
<v Speaker 1>He will get his shots as long as he don't

0:20:12.680 --> 0:20:15.600
<v Speaker 1>chase him, He's gonna get open and have opportunities to

0:20:15.680 --> 0:20:16.320
<v Speaker 1>make shots.

0:20:16.640 --> 0:20:19.480
<v Speaker 2>And he was big. He was huge. I also wanted

0:20:19.520 --> 0:20:24.920
<v Speaker 2>to speak about Jonathan Kaminga. His defense starting off on Jalen.

0:20:24.560 --> 0:20:28.399
<v Speaker 5>Green was huge, big time, swaking him big talk the

0:20:28.520 --> 0:20:30.919
<v Speaker 5>game and when you don't allow the guy, when you

0:20:30.960 --> 0:20:33.160
<v Speaker 5>don't allow a guy to get a rhythm to start

0:20:33.160 --> 0:20:35.960
<v Speaker 5>the game, that can change the game for offensive players.

0:20:36.000 --> 0:20:40.280
<v Speaker 2>So also wanted to speak on that. Jonathan Kaminga's defensive

0:20:40.280 --> 0:20:42.680
<v Speaker 2>pressure on the ball to start the game was huge,

0:20:42.800 --> 0:20:47.560
<v Speaker 2>mongers huge, huge, especially Jalen Green coming off that game

0:20:47.640 --> 0:20:50.600
<v Speaker 2>too performance where he was just having his way to

0:20:50.920 --> 0:20:53.480
<v Speaker 2>establish that at the beginning of the game.

0:20:54.119 --> 0:20:57.680
<v Speaker 1>It's saying, you, buddy, are gonna get the attention that

0:20:57.760 --> 0:21:02.520
<v Speaker 1>you deserve. You know, I've been waiting for that, but Kamingia,

0:21:02.080 --> 0:21:06.280
<v Speaker 1>I've been waiting for that all year and so it

0:21:06.359 --> 0:21:08.159
<v Speaker 1>was a joy to see that. So shout out to

0:21:08.240 --> 0:21:13.560
<v Speaker 1>Jonathan Kaminga for stepping up in the beginning and establishing

0:21:13.640 --> 0:21:17.399
<v Speaker 1>himself on the defensive end. Because now he's going to

0:21:17.480 --> 0:21:20.879
<v Speaker 1>have a breakthrough offensive game, mark my words. And you

0:21:20.920 --> 0:21:24.760
<v Speaker 1>guys haven't been playing. It hasn't been a high scoring series.

0:21:24.920 --> 0:21:29.120
<v Speaker 2>Facts, I think we still got a breakout game for sure.

0:21:29.200 --> 0:21:34.359
<v Speaker 1>And just talking about everybody stepping up, Jimmy, Jimmy Butler

0:21:34.359 --> 0:21:37.320
<v Speaker 1>is still questionable for Game four. I don't know if

0:21:37.320 --> 0:21:40.640
<v Speaker 1>he's going to try and play, but if he does, uh,

0:21:40.760 --> 0:21:43.760
<v Speaker 1>you know there's a chance if he plays. You know,

0:21:43.800 --> 0:21:46.440
<v Speaker 1>you're looking to go up three to one going into

0:21:46.480 --> 0:21:50.720
<v Speaker 1>Game four. What do you have to improve on for

0:21:50.840 --> 0:21:54.719
<v Speaker 1>the rest of the series, and then, especially if Jimmy

0:21:54.920 --> 0:21:58.320
<v Speaker 1>is out, what are the things you guys have to

0:21:58.359 --> 0:22:01.280
<v Speaker 1>do to better your chance is to close this series.

0:22:01.359 --> 0:22:03.560
<v Speaker 2>I have to improve personally. I gotta stop turning the

0:22:03.600 --> 0:22:08.200
<v Speaker 2>goddamn ball. I agree. That is my self improvement. Us

0:22:08.240 --> 0:22:10.679
<v Speaker 2>as a team, I think we cleaned up that in

0:22:10.760 --> 0:22:13.000
<v Speaker 2>the night. We only had ten turnovers. As a team,

0:22:13.400 --> 0:22:17.800
<v Speaker 2>I think we improve offensive rebound wise, and saying that

0:22:17.880 --> 0:22:20.560
<v Speaker 2>they still have fifteen, let's get that the eleven, you know,

0:22:20.680 --> 0:22:23.640
<v Speaker 2>so let's get that to eleven or twelve, so I think,

0:22:23.920 --> 0:22:26.280
<v Speaker 2>and then some of those be like two or three

0:22:26.320 --> 0:22:29.880
<v Speaker 2>offensive rebounds on the same possession. So sometimes the numbers

0:22:29.920 --> 0:22:32.480
<v Speaker 2>can look a little more skew than it actually is.

0:22:32.520 --> 0:22:35.240
<v Speaker 2>But overall, I thought we did a great job on

0:22:35.280 --> 0:22:37.600
<v Speaker 2>the defensive boards. But what I think the one thing

0:22:37.640 --> 0:22:39.359
<v Speaker 2>that I would like to see us improve up on

0:22:39.480 --> 0:22:42.840
<v Speaker 2>as a team is just continue to improve our game

0:22:42.880 --> 0:22:45.560
<v Speaker 2>plan discipline. We have a very young team. It's there

0:22:45.800 --> 0:22:48.040
<v Speaker 2>a lot of guys first time in the playoffs, first

0:22:48.040 --> 0:22:52.320
<v Speaker 2>time in this situation, and so as you continue to

0:22:52.359 --> 0:22:55.760
<v Speaker 2>get more and more experienced under your belt in the playoffs,

0:22:56.200 --> 0:22:58.720
<v Speaker 2>you hope to see guys continue to take those steps.

0:22:58.720 --> 0:23:01.400
<v Speaker 2>And what I will say through three, if you come

0:23:01.440 --> 0:23:04.240
<v Speaker 2>to playing, I've seen guys taking those steps. But we

0:23:04.280 --> 0:23:06.439
<v Speaker 2>all know we can be better, and so I'd just

0:23:06.520 --> 0:23:09.120
<v Speaker 2>like to see us continue to improve up on our

0:23:09.200 --> 0:23:13.200
<v Speaker 2>game plan discipline just as a team.

0:23:13.280 --> 0:23:18.280
<v Speaker 1>Overall, I truly believe when the shot clock is running down,

0:23:18.720 --> 0:23:23.119
<v Speaker 1>when the ball is in the non score we meaning

0:23:23.160 --> 0:23:26.600
<v Speaker 1>the three to four on the five scorers on the team,

0:23:26.960 --> 0:23:30.480
<v Speaker 1>y'all got active. And when I mean getting active, you

0:23:30.600 --> 0:23:34.000
<v Speaker 1>start you shut down the next pass. So a lot

0:23:34.080 --> 0:23:38.359
<v Speaker 1>of those one on one opportunities wind up in the

0:23:38.440 --> 0:23:42.359
<v Speaker 1>hands of a Dylan Brooks right trying to make plays

0:23:42.680 --> 0:23:45.679
<v Speaker 1>eat trying to make plays, and I think that was

0:23:45.760 --> 0:23:49.240
<v Speaker 1>really really that was really balanced and a focused defense

0:23:49.359 --> 0:23:52.480
<v Speaker 1>when you can when you know, like oh, Dylan Brooks

0:23:52.480 --> 0:23:55.600
<v Speaker 1>got the bass eight seconds, make him make the play.

0:23:56.440 --> 0:23:58.960
<v Speaker 1>But at the same time, I also think that when

0:23:58.960 --> 0:24:01.639
<v Speaker 1>you guys do do that and you see people like

0:24:01.720 --> 0:24:06.040
<v Speaker 1>Dylan Brooks or Thompson, you gotta be aware and that

0:24:06.080 --> 0:24:08.639
<v Speaker 1>they will miss shots and that's how them offense. The

0:24:08.720 --> 0:24:12.400
<v Speaker 1>rebounds happened because you start you start looking at the shot,

0:24:12.520 --> 0:24:15.159
<v Speaker 1>looking at the miss, and then that's how they attack.

0:24:15.280 --> 0:24:18.399
<v Speaker 1>But it was great defense at the end of the

0:24:18.440 --> 0:24:22.760
<v Speaker 1>game because you start allowing the ball on the defensive

0:24:22.800 --> 0:24:26.640
<v Speaker 1>side to go to a weekend offensive scorer. And that's

0:24:26.680 --> 0:24:28.760
<v Speaker 1>why I think you guys were successful tonight.

0:24:29.200 --> 0:24:32.080
<v Speaker 2>No, Yeah, that was huge for sure, And I wouldn't

0:24:32.080 --> 0:24:34.080
<v Speaker 2>necessarily say that was game playing, you know, it's just

0:24:34.160 --> 0:24:36.320
<v Speaker 2>kind of you filling the game out as out there.

0:24:36.440 --> 0:24:38.919
<v Speaker 2>I think anytime you can take first couple of options

0:24:38.960 --> 0:24:42.520
<v Speaker 2>away make teams do what they don't necessarily want to

0:24:42.560 --> 0:24:45.600
<v Speaker 2>do is always going to be good. So yeah, man,

0:24:46.200 --> 0:24:50.840
<v Speaker 2>shout out to our defense again. My guy Jerry stack House.

0:24:52.200 --> 0:24:54.600
<v Speaker 2>He has a certain mentality that he brings to the

0:24:54.640 --> 0:24:57.600
<v Speaker 2>defense and we just try to follow that take it

0:24:57.640 --> 0:24:59.920
<v Speaker 2>around the league a little bit. Man. I didn't get

0:25:00.080 --> 0:25:02.919
<v Speaker 2>opportunity to see it obviously live, but I saw it

0:25:03.040 --> 0:25:08.200
<v Speaker 2>on that game. You was there, Clippers, that game tough call.

0:25:08.520 --> 0:25:10.800
<v Speaker 2>I don't know how to judge it. I think for

0:25:10.920 --> 0:25:13.920
<v Speaker 2>me personally, I've never seen a game winner like that.

0:25:14.600 --> 0:25:18.040
<v Speaker 2>Uh you were there? Have you ever seen an ending

0:25:18.160 --> 0:25:21.639
<v Speaker 2>like that in the playoffs? No? That was wild? Dude?

0:25:22.400 --> 0:25:24.920
<v Speaker 2>What was your man thought? Being there?

0:25:25.600 --> 0:25:31.080
<v Speaker 1>My thought was it should go to overtime because hand

0:25:31.240 --> 0:25:32.360
<v Speaker 1>was on top of the ball.

0:25:32.400 --> 0:25:34.560
<v Speaker 2>But when you look at the play.

0:25:35.119 --> 0:25:38.280
<v Speaker 1>His hand was not on the ball when the red

0:25:38.400 --> 0:25:43.320
<v Speaker 1>light hit and it was in the cylinder. So it

0:25:43.440 --> 0:25:46.679
<v Speaker 1>was like, damn, how do you to me? You know,

0:25:46.800 --> 0:25:49.760
<v Speaker 1>shout out to the refs on those because that's that's a.

0:25:49.600 --> 0:25:52.760
<v Speaker 2>Big call to make this call. It changes It could

0:25:52.880 --> 0:25:59.879
<v Speaker 2>change that, It could change the outlook, which could change

0:25:59.880 --> 0:26:03.600
<v Speaker 2>the entire playoffs. Like it's a huge call to making

0:26:03.680 --> 0:26:04.840
<v Speaker 2>that in that moment.

0:26:05.119 --> 0:26:09.160
<v Speaker 1>But like I said, the Clippers shouldn't have put themselves

0:26:09.240 --> 0:26:14.919
<v Speaker 1>in that situation, especially when you're at home, you have

0:26:15.119 --> 0:26:19.000
<v Speaker 1>the advantage, and I think when they put you know,

0:26:19.400 --> 0:26:22.080
<v Speaker 1>when they picked up the pressure on defense when they

0:26:22.080 --> 0:26:24.639
<v Speaker 1>were down to get back in the game. That's the

0:26:24.680 --> 0:26:27.960
<v Speaker 1>same type of pressure that they needed the entire game.

0:26:28.080 --> 0:26:30.800
<v Speaker 2>So I think that they were going through lulls and

0:26:30.840 --> 0:26:31.359
<v Speaker 2>then at.

0:26:31.200 --> 0:26:34.520
<v Speaker 1>The end of the game, like we all know, it's

0:26:34.640 --> 0:26:38.040
<v Speaker 1>not always the game when it's shot, it's always the tipping.

0:26:38.680 --> 0:26:39.920
<v Speaker 2>And that goes back.

0:26:39.760 --> 0:26:44.840
<v Speaker 1>To way back end of the day where Houston lost

0:26:44.840 --> 0:26:48.600
<v Speaker 1>in the Final four a game Elijah Wah to the

0:26:48.640 --> 0:26:55.439
<v Speaker 1>great Jimmy Valbano with basically an airball putback. So I

0:26:55.480 --> 0:26:58.320
<v Speaker 1>mean it's a heartbreaker because as a coach, as a player,

0:26:59.000 --> 0:27:02.520
<v Speaker 1>the shot was off. It's a controversial call, but you

0:27:02.520 --> 0:27:06.040
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't have been in that situation, and it was just devastating.

0:27:06.119 --> 0:27:09.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean, the old Clipper Arena was rocking and Denver

0:27:09.880 --> 0:27:10.680
<v Speaker 1>got away with one.

0:27:10.960 --> 0:27:13.680
<v Speaker 2>They did shout out to Lorenzo Charles, by the way,

0:27:13.760 --> 0:27:16.960
<v Speaker 2>getting that put back for n stayed back in the day.

0:27:17.480 --> 0:27:19.800
<v Speaker 2>When I look at that series now, I say that's

0:27:19.840 --> 0:27:23.760
<v Speaker 2>two games that the Clippers have let get away. I'm

0:27:23.800 --> 0:27:27.320
<v Speaker 2>not sure if you can win a series against a

0:27:27.359 --> 0:27:30.880
<v Speaker 2>really good team given two games away with that type

0:27:30.880 --> 0:27:31.320
<v Speaker 2>of margin.

0:27:31.480 --> 0:27:31.720
<v Speaker 5>Area.

0:27:31.760 --> 0:27:35.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I know, I agree. Now I'm saying that The

0:27:35.040 --> 0:27:40.800
<v Speaker 2>Clippers have obviously the system, but Kawhi Leonard, who is

0:27:40.880 --> 0:27:44.840
<v Speaker 2>just playing at an EEE level and which will always

0:27:44.840 --> 0:27:47.960
<v Speaker 2>give them a chance. They got Ronnie Luke on the bench,

0:27:48.240 --> 0:27:51.119
<v Speaker 2>which always gives them a chance. But it's just hard

0:27:51.160 --> 0:27:53.440
<v Speaker 2>to beat. It's hard to beat the team four times

0:27:53.960 --> 0:27:57.520
<v Speaker 2>to essentially beat them one for sure, come back tonight

0:27:57.600 --> 0:28:00.400
<v Speaker 2>and have a real chance at winning that game and

0:28:00.440 --> 0:28:02.960
<v Speaker 2>not coming up with those two. I think those two

0:28:02.960 --> 0:28:06.120
<v Speaker 2>could possibly cost you later. But then saying, now, who

0:28:06.160 --> 0:28:09.440
<v Speaker 2>do you have taking that? I just think like that

0:28:10.119 --> 0:28:12.280
<v Speaker 2>I could get tough man. That can get hard.

0:28:12.400 --> 0:28:15.800
<v Speaker 1>You know what I'm saying though very much. So you've

0:28:15.880 --> 0:28:19.359
<v Speaker 1>let two games slip away. You had, you had those

0:28:19.400 --> 0:28:22.800
<v Speaker 1>games and your clutches. But I still think the Clippers

0:28:22.800 --> 0:28:24.400
<v Speaker 1>are the more team.

0:28:24.800 --> 0:28:25.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:28:25.119 --> 0:28:28.960
<v Speaker 1>What I did see from Denver is, you know, he

0:28:29.119 --> 0:28:31.920
<v Speaker 1>just got to keep going that joker. You gotta keep

0:28:31.920 --> 0:28:36.080
<v Speaker 1>wearing Joker down. He's doing everything out there. I was

0:28:36.160 --> 0:28:38.200
<v Speaker 1>on the Denver side of the court, so I got

0:28:38.200 --> 0:28:41.760
<v Speaker 1>a chance to see, you know, how the bench, You know,

0:28:41.880 --> 0:28:45.240
<v Speaker 1>the conversations in the huddle, and a lot is being

0:28:45.280 --> 0:28:46.880
<v Speaker 1>asked a joker to do a lot.

0:28:47.040 --> 0:28:48.560
<v Speaker 2>A lot of the thinking a lot.

0:28:48.360 --> 0:28:53.080
<v Speaker 1>Of co coaching, a lot of playing and coaching, talking

0:28:53.120 --> 0:28:53.920
<v Speaker 1>to teammates.

0:28:54.480 --> 0:28:56.200
<v Speaker 2>He has a lot of responsibility.

0:28:56.640 --> 0:28:59.960
<v Speaker 1>And then him not having Russ out there, you don't

0:29:00.120 --> 0:29:04.200
<v Speaker 1>to have another vocal person and you have, like you

0:29:04.240 --> 0:29:07.880
<v Speaker 1>have a lot of non vocal players. It's just hard

0:29:07.920 --> 0:29:12.160
<v Speaker 1>to communicate and and to get energy and motivation when

0:29:12.240 --> 0:29:15.600
<v Speaker 1>guys are are not like really dialed in. And I

0:29:15.640 --> 0:29:20.720
<v Speaker 1>think the Clippers they unlock Norman Powle Zubaca has been playing, right,

0:29:20.760 --> 0:29:24.080
<v Speaker 1>We talked about that. But the unlock of Norman power,

0:29:24.120 --> 0:29:26.880
<v Speaker 1>I think is gonna be huge. And then now it's

0:29:26.920 --> 0:29:31.960
<v Speaker 1>gonna be a Bogdanovich or a Batoon are done. Somebody

0:29:32.440 --> 0:29:34.800
<v Speaker 1>from the Clippers now has to step up and be,

0:29:35.520 --> 0:29:39.080
<v Speaker 1>you know that that fifth. They need a fifth, sixth

0:29:39.160 --> 0:29:42.080
<v Speaker 1>person that they can rely on now to close out

0:29:42.080 --> 0:29:44.920
<v Speaker 1>this series that's gonna make big plays for them. They

0:29:44.920 --> 0:29:47.720
<v Speaker 1>need some They need some big plays from Derek Jones,

0:29:47.760 --> 0:29:50.600
<v Speaker 1>They need some big plays from Done, They need some

0:29:50.640 --> 0:29:53.840
<v Speaker 1>big plays from Batun. They need those guys to make

0:29:54.040 --> 0:29:59.920
<v Speaker 1>winning plays over these next three games. Yeah, no, almost definitely,

0:30:00.080 --> 0:30:02.840
<v Speaker 1>most definitely. But they can win in Denver. They can

0:30:02.880 --> 0:30:03.440
<v Speaker 1>win in Dinner.

0:30:03.520 --> 0:30:07.880
<v Speaker 2>They shown that actually they shown that actually twice, Yeah, twice, right, right,

0:30:08.200 --> 0:30:10.840
<v Speaker 2>right right, So I'm not worried about them going back

0:30:10.880 --> 0:30:11.280
<v Speaker 2>to Denver.

0:30:11.480 --> 0:30:17.479

0:31:19.160 --> 0:31:22.000
<v Speaker 2>Were excited to have all y'all represent the show so

0:31:22.040 --> 0:31:26.000
<v Speaker 2>go to the dgbdshow dot com and get the new merch.

0:31:30.040 --> 0:31:32.640
<v Speaker 2>There are four to one series.

0:31:33.040 --> 0:31:38.040
<v Speaker 1>The first is Nicks Pistons My next Knicks tape.

0:31:38.120 --> 0:31:41.719
<v Speaker 2>Let's go Bay up to one on Detroit.

0:31:42.200 --> 0:31:44.600
<v Speaker 1>Every game has been a slug fest back and forth,

0:31:45.040 --> 0:31:48.320
<v Speaker 1>Jalen bruston the show while he's clutched player of the Year.

0:31:48.880 --> 0:31:52.560
<v Speaker 1>I predicted that this series was gonna go uh nix

0:31:52.640 --> 0:31:56.520
<v Speaker 1>and six. How you feeling about your Detroit Pistons still?

0:31:57.240 --> 0:32:00.200
<v Speaker 2>I think they too have given games away at that

0:32:00.320 --> 0:32:05.239
<v Speaker 2>game game one way was bizarre. Nonetheless, this is what

0:32:05.320 --> 0:32:08.320
<v Speaker 2>I expected. I expected the Pistons to have a chance

0:32:08.360 --> 0:32:11.239
<v Speaker 2>to win this series, and they are showing that. And

0:32:11.280 --> 0:32:14.320
<v Speaker 2>that's also what Isaiah Stewart been out. He's missed the

0:32:14.400 --> 0:32:16.360
<v Speaker 2>last two games, and I thought he'd be a vital

0:32:16.400 --> 0:32:19.280
<v Speaker 2>part of this series. And they're still showing. Paul Reed

0:32:19.320 --> 0:32:23.680
<v Speaker 2>has stepped up huge, They're they're still playing really good basketball.

0:32:23.800 --> 0:32:27.360
<v Speaker 2>So I'm not sure. I didn't see what it was

0:32:27.440 --> 0:32:30.040
<v Speaker 2>that's been keeping Stuwarie out. I'm not sure if he

0:32:30.080 --> 0:32:33.120
<v Speaker 2>will still be out, but if they get him back,

0:32:34.160 --> 0:32:37.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm telling you, man, watch out, Nicks. They get Stewart

0:32:37.880 --> 0:32:41.240
<v Speaker 2>back because that's just another body that could throw a cat.

0:32:41.680 --> 0:32:44.520
<v Speaker 2>That's another enforcer. You know, there's this series been a

0:32:44.560 --> 0:32:48.800
<v Speaker 2>little testy. You get your enforcer out there, not another enforcer.

0:32:48.880 --> 0:32:52.960
<v Speaker 2>Your enforcer out there is always harder for the home

0:32:53.040 --> 0:32:57.320
<v Speaker 2>team and tough for the home team. I think I

0:32:57.320 --> 0:32:58.600
<v Speaker 2>think the Knick's gonna struck.

0:32:59.520 --> 0:33:02.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And I don't think the Knicks have been in

0:33:02.520 --> 0:33:06.200
<v Speaker 1>that situation where they've had that margin for air.

0:33:06.800 --> 0:33:06.960
<v Speaker 2>Right.

0:33:07.080 --> 0:33:10.680
<v Speaker 1>You look at the Clippers and you say, damn the Clippers.

0:33:10.840 --> 0:33:14.840
<v Speaker 1>Let Denver get to But they still got Kawhi, they

0:33:14.920 --> 0:33:18.920
<v Speaker 1>still got James, they still got you know, super elite

0:33:19.200 --> 0:33:23.560
<v Speaker 1>veteran experience that have been have played back.

0:33:23.400 --> 0:33:25.760
<v Speaker 2>To the wall. That's a fact.

0:33:26.360 --> 0:33:29.960
<v Speaker 1>I want to see Detroit and I know they're gonna

0:33:29.960 --> 0:33:33.200
<v Speaker 1>come out fighting. I know they're gonna play that type

0:33:33.240 --> 0:33:38.080
<v Speaker 1>of basketball. But Game four, Game four is all about will,

0:33:39.080 --> 0:33:45.000
<v Speaker 1>intellect right, and small, small, small, small margin for air,

0:33:45.840 --> 0:33:47.640
<v Speaker 1>especially when you're the home team.

0:33:47.960 --> 0:33:51.000
<v Speaker 2>This is true because they got these pistons, ain't got

0:33:51.000 --> 0:33:53.880
<v Speaker 2>nothing to lose, man. They playing with the Church's money,

0:33:53.920 --> 0:33:58.160
<v Speaker 2>with the house money. These pistons, Man, watch out because

0:33:58.200 --> 0:34:00.320
<v Speaker 2>they come and for bloody man.

0:34:00.360 --> 0:34:02.320
<v Speaker 1>The pencils was one of my team that they was

0:34:02.360 --> 0:34:05.200
<v Speaker 1>one of my teams in the East. I just think

0:34:05.240 --> 0:34:08.560
<v Speaker 1>that they're gonna the next on the mission, the next

0:34:08.560 --> 0:34:11.480
<v Speaker 1>on the mission improved something. The first thing they got

0:34:11.600 --> 0:34:13.840
<v Speaker 1>to prove is, hey, we're getting out this first round

0:34:13.840 --> 0:34:17.200
<v Speaker 1>again so we can go to the Conference Semis.

0:34:17.239 --> 0:34:20.239
<v Speaker 2>This is true. The Bucks bounce back there downald two

0:34:20.280 --> 0:34:24.200
<v Speaker 2>to one. After winning Game three, Gary Trent stepped up huge.

0:34:25.360 --> 0:34:28.560
<v Speaker 2>He was put in the start lineup score thirty six.

0:34:28.960 --> 0:34:33.080
<v Speaker 2>Give Doc his credit BD, that's just an adjustment, and

0:34:33.160 --> 0:34:36.520
<v Speaker 2>that man came through in nine threes. I think this

0:34:36.600 --> 0:34:39.120
<v Speaker 2>series will end up tied up to the two headed

0:34:39.200 --> 0:34:44.440
<v Speaker 2>back to uh Indiana for Game five, and what I

0:34:44.480 --> 0:34:47.160
<v Speaker 2>will say is if this series get to two to two,

0:34:47.680 --> 0:34:55.040
<v Speaker 2>I got the Bucks taking this Seriesugh great adjustment, Doc Rivers,

0:34:55.760 --> 0:35:01.600
<v Speaker 2>great adjustment. Needed adjustment. Game for is pivotal.

0:35:02.640 --> 0:35:06.120
<v Speaker 1>I just still think Indiana is not afraid of the Bucks.

0:35:06.960 --> 0:35:10.960
<v Speaker 1>Indiana feels like they can beat the Bucks down the stretch.

0:35:11.640 --> 0:35:14.880
<v Speaker 1>And it took thirty six points in ninth and a

0:35:15.080 --> 0:35:19.440
<v Speaker 1>nine to three performance from Gary Try Junior, shout out

0:35:19.480 --> 0:35:20.120
<v Speaker 1>to my dog.

0:35:20.719 --> 0:35:25.799
<v Speaker 2>He came in, he rocked out. But you're asking for that.

0:35:27.200 --> 0:35:30.800
<v Speaker 1>Where did that come from and why didn't we get

0:35:30.960 --> 0:35:34.880
<v Speaker 1>any type of combination of those thirty six points in

0:35:34.920 --> 0:35:35.920
<v Speaker 1>their two losses.

0:35:36.040 --> 0:35:39.640
<v Speaker 2>So well, I'll tell you why role players play better

0:35:39.680 --> 0:35:43.319
<v Speaker 2>at home. They do. Role players play better at home,

0:35:43.719 --> 0:35:46.839
<v Speaker 2>which is why I say if this series ends up

0:35:46.840 --> 0:35:49.319
<v Speaker 2>two to two, the Bucks gonna take it because they're

0:35:49.360 --> 0:35:51.919
<v Speaker 2>gonna go back on the road and Dame gonna find

0:35:51.960 --> 0:35:54.840
<v Speaker 2>his stride. Yanna's gonna be honest, Dame go find and

0:35:55.360 --> 0:35:58.239
<v Speaker 2>Brook Lopez is a champion. He been there before, you

0:35:58.280 --> 0:36:01.040
<v Speaker 2>know what I'm saying. Bobby Porters is champion. He been

0:36:01.040 --> 0:36:03.440
<v Speaker 2>there before. I think if they get this serious to

0:36:03.480 --> 0:36:05.279
<v Speaker 2>two to two, they going to Game five like, oh

0:36:05.360 --> 0:36:07.680
<v Speaker 2>we got them, and they gonna feel that. So I'm

0:36:07.719 --> 0:36:09.239
<v Speaker 2>telling you, if they get this to two to two,

0:36:09.320 --> 0:36:13.239
<v Speaker 2>watch Out Bucks winning Bucks and six Bucks winning four

0:36:13.239 --> 0:36:15.239
<v Speaker 2>in a row. They get this to two to two,

0:36:15.840 --> 0:36:21.239
<v Speaker 2>watch Out championship pedigree means something. Now, Andyanna does have

0:36:21.280 --> 0:36:25.600
<v Speaker 2>some championship pedigree over there in Pascal Siaka, Yeah, they

0:36:25.640 --> 0:36:30.200
<v Speaker 2>don't have multiple and I think that's gonna be the difference. Yeah.

0:36:30.239 --> 0:36:33.080
<v Speaker 1>I think the difference is Rick Carlisle is going to

0:36:33.160 --> 0:36:37.200
<v Speaker 1>make the adjustment heading in the game for it's gonna

0:36:37.200 --> 0:36:40.640
<v Speaker 1>be a battle of adjustments Game four, and I think

0:36:40.719 --> 0:36:45.120
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna come down to uh Doc versus Rick Carlisle

0:36:45.640 --> 0:36:49.839
<v Speaker 1>respecting for let's get next those who make those adjustments.

0:36:49.920 --> 0:36:51.200
<v Speaker 2>Who tweets the lineup.

0:36:51.800 --> 0:36:54.480
<v Speaker 1>You know, somebody is gonna be sitting down the stretch

0:36:55.000 --> 0:36:58.200
<v Speaker 1>while somebody is cooking. We don't know who it is,

0:36:58.600 --> 0:37:00.560
<v Speaker 1>but it's gonna be up to, you know, one of

0:37:00.600 --> 0:37:04.560
<v Speaker 1>these coaches to make that move. Next up the Celtics

0:37:04.600 --> 0:37:09.319
<v Speaker 1>two to one on the Magic coach Missoula. When Perzingis

0:37:09.400 --> 0:37:14.480
<v Speaker 1>started linking, he said, I like watching him bleed. This

0:37:14.640 --> 0:37:18.720
<v Speaker 1>series is very physical and the only way, the only

0:37:18.800 --> 0:37:22.840
<v Speaker 1>way that the Orlando Magic can say in this series

0:37:23.480 --> 0:37:24.520
<v Speaker 1>is to be physical.

0:37:24.600 --> 0:37:26.759
<v Speaker 2>What are your thoughts. That's the fact. They don't have

0:37:26.800 --> 0:37:29.560
<v Speaker 2>the talent that the Boss and Celtics have, so they

0:37:29.640 --> 0:37:32.399
<v Speaker 2>gotta jump the game up. They gotta be physical. That's

0:37:32.440 --> 0:37:35.160
<v Speaker 2>the only way they can compete, and they're doing it.

0:37:35.360 --> 0:37:37.719
<v Speaker 2>I think they're doing a great job of it. More

0:37:37.719 --> 0:37:40.640
<v Speaker 2>physical than one would like, I'm sure, but you know

0:37:40.800 --> 0:37:43.319
<v Speaker 2>that's the nature of it. Got to stand up through that,

0:37:43.440 --> 0:37:45.800
<v Speaker 2>to that and go through it. So they are playing

0:37:45.840 --> 0:37:50.200
<v Speaker 2>that physical. I was happy to see JT's back. But yeah,

0:37:50.280 --> 0:37:54.239
<v Speaker 2>it's a very physical series. I think they're doing what

0:37:54.280 --> 0:37:57.400
<v Speaker 2>they gotta do. So they're executing their game plan what

0:37:57.440 --> 0:38:00.640
<v Speaker 2>they need to execute. You gotta give them their credit. Yeah,

0:38:00.640 --> 0:38:02.080
<v Speaker 2>they gotta be scrappy, that's it.

0:38:02.200 --> 0:38:06.560
<v Speaker 1>They gotta be scrappy, keep the score close and hope

0:38:06.600 --> 0:38:10.600
<v Speaker 1>that Paulo can be that person for you in the

0:38:10.640 --> 0:38:13.080
<v Speaker 1>playoffs that can make magical moments.

0:38:13.120 --> 0:38:17.440
<v Speaker 2>No pun intended, But I do like coach Missoula.

0:38:19.080 --> 0:38:24.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he told Jason Jason Tatum man get up, get up?

0:38:25.440 --> 0:38:31.200
<v Speaker 1>Right he talking about I like watching him bleed, just

0:38:31.360 --> 0:38:36.560
<v Speaker 1>that that DNA, that fabric. Just a coach speaking to that.

0:38:36.840 --> 0:38:42.520
<v Speaker 1>And when you watch Boston, they tough, they resilient. They

0:38:42.560 --> 0:38:46.719
<v Speaker 1>don't they don't bend or break, you know, they don't, right,

0:38:46.840 --> 0:38:49.960
<v Speaker 1>they feed off of that, and they they all got.

0:38:49.680 --> 0:38:55.400
<v Speaker 2>This chip on their shoulder. They Ye, you have to

0:38:55.480 --> 0:38:57.040
<v Speaker 2>if you want to be one of them teams that

0:38:57.080 --> 0:38:58.800
<v Speaker 2>pop up every year. You know what I'm saying that

0:38:58.880 --> 0:39:01.719
<v Speaker 2>being running every year and they doing that, you got

0:39:01.719 --> 0:39:03.640
<v Speaker 2>to get them their credit. But they definitely feed off

0:39:04.000 --> 0:39:07.520
<v Speaker 2>Joe's energy for sure. T Wolves are leading the series

0:39:07.520 --> 0:39:11.160
<v Speaker 2>two to one. Luca was sick in Game three, they said,

0:39:11.400 --> 0:39:15.880
<v Speaker 2>and Jaden McDaniels stepped up with thirty points and Brian

0:39:16.040 --> 0:39:20.200
<v Speaker 2>both did what you expect Andon Bron to do. Looking

0:39:20.239 --> 0:39:23.279
<v Speaker 2>forward to seeing a healthier Luca in Game four, I

0:39:23.320 --> 0:39:26.080
<v Speaker 2>think the Lakers, you know, they can go on the

0:39:26.160 --> 0:39:28.319
<v Speaker 2>road and win the game. They got Luka, Doncic and

0:39:28.440 --> 0:39:32.200
<v Speaker 2>Lebron James. I think they have to figure that small

0:39:32.239 --> 0:39:34.880
<v Speaker 2>lineup out when they take Rudy Gobertt. You know, a

0:39:34.920 --> 0:39:38.360
<v Speaker 2>lot of the Lakers game plan seems to be built

0:39:38.520 --> 0:39:41.040
<v Speaker 2>on picking on Rudy Gobert when they take him out.

0:39:41.080 --> 0:39:42.960
<v Speaker 2>I think he played twenty four to twenty five minutes

0:39:43.040 --> 0:39:45.600
<v Speaker 2>last game. When they take him out and they go

0:39:45.680 --> 0:39:48.680
<v Speaker 2>to Niles Reed at the five. The Lakers has seemed

0:39:48.719 --> 0:39:52.399
<v Speaker 2>to struggle with that lineup in the series. Game two,

0:39:52.400 --> 0:39:55.400
<v Speaker 2>they got away because Nasrie was in foul trouble and

0:39:55.480 --> 0:40:00.160
<v Speaker 2>so they didn't have to deal with that lineup. So

0:40:00.280 --> 0:40:04.359
<v Speaker 2>I think the key to the Lakers figuring this, you know,

0:40:04.440 --> 0:40:07.360
<v Speaker 2>this this team out is seeing if they can figure

0:40:07.480 --> 0:40:10.680
<v Speaker 2>that lineup out, because that's the lineup that's been beating them,

0:40:11.640 --> 0:40:14.560
<v Speaker 2>and so it'll be good to see, uh be fun

0:40:14.600 --> 0:40:18.120
<v Speaker 2>to watch and see what adjustments JJ Redick makes his

0:40:18.239 --> 0:40:22.120
<v Speaker 2>first playoff series, you know, and see what adjustments he

0:40:22.239 --> 0:40:23.520
<v Speaker 2>make to deal with that lineup.

0:40:24.600 --> 0:40:27.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I would say, Uh, one thing I noticed about

0:40:27.600 --> 0:40:31.000
<v Speaker 1>JJ Redick and you know a lot of young coaches

0:40:31.040 --> 0:40:33.960
<v Speaker 1>when they when they come into the league early, you

0:40:34.080 --> 0:40:36.960
<v Speaker 1>can tell what type of coach that they will be

0:40:37.719 --> 0:40:42.480
<v Speaker 1>based on game to game preparation. And JJ Redick is

0:40:42.520 --> 0:40:46.600
<v Speaker 1>one of those coaches. So being down to one, he's

0:40:46.640 --> 0:40:50.560
<v Speaker 1>gonna watch a lot of take He's gonna watch where

0:40:50.600 --> 0:40:54.799
<v Speaker 1>the mistakes are happening, similar to sposal when Sposter was

0:40:54.840 --> 0:40:59.960
<v Speaker 1>young coming up, he was great at making the adjustment

0:41:00.239 --> 0:41:03.359
<v Speaker 1>from game one to game two. Oh we lost game one,

0:41:03.680 --> 0:41:07.360
<v Speaker 1>Oh game two, We're not gonna lose because we've corrected

0:41:07.400 --> 0:41:11.279
<v Speaker 1>all our mistakes. And a lot of times coaches do

0:41:11.360 --> 0:41:16.080
<v Speaker 1>better in phil in preparation for the next day. And

0:41:16.440 --> 0:41:19.680
<v Speaker 1>it's and it's tough making adjustments, especially when you're a

0:41:19.719 --> 0:41:23.040
<v Speaker 1>rookie coach, especially when when it's your first time. So

0:41:23.520 --> 0:41:26.560
<v Speaker 1>I look for the Lakers and JJ to be able

0:41:26.640 --> 0:41:29.600
<v Speaker 1>to clean some things up. And he's a coach that

0:41:29.760 --> 0:41:35.160
<v Speaker 1>makes game game to game adjustments right. And you have coaches,

0:41:35.440 --> 0:41:39.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, like Steve Kerr right, that has that experience

0:41:39.440 --> 0:41:43.040
<v Speaker 1>that make in game adjustments. I think he'll work his

0:41:43.040 --> 0:41:46.040
<v Speaker 1>way up to that. But but for now, the Lakers

0:41:46.080 --> 0:41:51.160
<v Speaker 1>will be prepared for Game four for the Rudy Gobert matchup.

0:41:51.200 --> 0:41:52.480
<v Speaker 2>When Rudy Gobert.

0:41:52.200 --> 0:41:55.319
<v Speaker 1>Goes out, you know how to handle Julius Randall, put

0:41:55.400 --> 0:41:58.759
<v Speaker 1>more pressure on him and stop Minnesota from getting to

0:41:58.800 --> 0:42:01.600
<v Speaker 1>the front of the rib. I think that's the Lakers problem,

0:42:01.719 --> 0:42:05.400
<v Speaker 1>like they not letting they not forcing Minnesota to be

0:42:05.440 --> 0:42:08.399
<v Speaker 1>a jump shooting team and prove that if y'all gonna

0:42:08.400 --> 0:42:11.200
<v Speaker 1>shoot all these threes or shoot jumpers, they let them

0:42:11.200 --> 0:42:13.319
<v Speaker 1>get to the bucket two into the front of the row.

0:42:13.680 --> 0:42:16.880
<v Speaker 1>And the Lakers have no shot blockers down there that

0:42:17.320 --> 0:42:21.320
<v Speaker 1>you know that's stopping the timberworld, especially Jami dak Daniels

0:42:21.320 --> 0:42:22.080
<v Speaker 1>he having his way.

0:42:22.480 --> 0:42:26.000
<v Speaker 2>I was just about to say, do they have the

0:42:26.040 --> 0:42:29.719
<v Speaker 2>personnel to like keep the stop them at the rim though?

0:42:29.719 --> 0:42:33.719
<v Speaker 2>Because that team athletics in law, like they got great

0:42:33.800 --> 0:42:38.680
<v Speaker 2>lanth they're athletic, So is there like, do the Lakers

0:42:38.760 --> 0:42:41.080
<v Speaker 2>have the answer to stop them from getting to the

0:42:41.160 --> 0:42:44.839
<v Speaker 2>rim dough and finishing at the room, because that's one

0:42:44.880 --> 0:42:46.120
<v Speaker 2>of their strengths.

0:42:46.800 --> 0:42:51.520
<v Speaker 1>The Lakers have good individual defenders are hustle defenders.

0:42:52.040 --> 0:42:58.480
<v Speaker 2>They don't have good weak side defenders. Bron with the exception.

0:43:00.400 --> 0:43:04.160
<v Speaker 1>Is great, but Bron is at a place in time

0:43:04.200 --> 0:43:08.920
<v Speaker 1>in his career where he can't cover. He knows if

0:43:08.960 --> 0:43:11.480
<v Speaker 1>he has to cover everything on the defensive end.

0:43:11.719 --> 0:43:14.560
<v Speaker 2>You think you can't get to thirty eight or thirty

0:43:14.600 --> 0:43:16.000
<v Speaker 2>six or thirty eight or whatever.

0:43:16.440 --> 0:43:19.120
<v Speaker 1>You can't do that, Yeah, you can't. You can't do that.

0:43:19.520 --> 0:43:23.520
<v Speaker 1>And when you look at Vanderbilt, he's a good defender, right,

0:43:23.560 --> 0:43:26.920
<v Speaker 1>but he's not a good help defender. Hachi Moore is

0:43:26.960 --> 0:43:30.200
<v Speaker 1>not a good help defender. Then you have a weaker

0:43:30.239 --> 0:43:34.400
<v Speaker 1>defender in Luca, which requires a lot of help defense

0:43:35.320 --> 0:43:40.280
<v Speaker 1>right because people are attacking Luca. So like for the Warriors, Looney,

0:43:40.800 --> 0:43:45.200
<v Speaker 1>great help week side defender, Get back to you man

0:43:45.320 --> 0:43:50.960
<v Speaker 1>box out, Dramond Green, great week side help defender, right,

0:43:51.239 --> 0:43:54.600
<v Speaker 1>great on ball defender. The Lakers can defend you and

0:43:54.640 --> 0:43:58.160
<v Speaker 1>put pressure on the ball, but they can't stop you

0:43:58.160 --> 0:43:59.239
<v Speaker 1>from getting to the red.

0:44:00.040 --> 0:44:02.080
<v Speaker 2>We shall see. So who you got winning that series?

0:44:03.239 --> 0:44:06.640
<v Speaker 1>I still got the Lakers. I just think you know, Lebron,

0:44:07.400 --> 0:44:11.760
<v Speaker 1>Lebron and Luca, they still got a half to figure

0:44:11.800 --> 0:44:16.239
<v Speaker 1>out and if they click, then I think Minnesota is

0:44:16.280 --> 0:44:16.800
<v Speaker 1>in trouble.

0:44:17.480 --> 0:44:23.840
<v Speaker 2>Is tough for anybody? Yeah, this is It's tough Minnesota. Yeah,

0:44:24.000 --> 0:44:27.040
<v Speaker 2>it's tough. Click all right.

0:44:27.200 --> 0:44:32.400
<v Speaker 1>Last topic, I want to send the huge congratulations to

0:44:32.560 --> 0:44:37.440

<v Speaker 1>to the team's success. This award, to me, embodies a

0:44:51.760 --> 0:44:57.280
<v Speaker 1>lot of what you've done this year, how you've been available, accessible,

0:44:57.920 --> 0:45:00.960
