30
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 1: by Fandel here at the volume. Happy Monday, everybody. I

31
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 1: hope all of you guys had an amazing weekend. We

32
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 1: are going to touch on five different games today and

33
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 1: at least some capacity. We had the Kings and the

34
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:28,119
Speaker 1: Golden State Warriors in a very high scoring affair last night.

35
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,639
Speaker 1: On Saturday night, the Philadelphia is seventy sixers had an

36
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:36,359
Speaker 1: embarrassing loss to the San Antonio Spurs to drop to

37
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 1: three and oh, we're gonna be talking about that game.

38
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 1: Washington and Cleveland last night had a really interesting overnight

39
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 1: overtime game excuse me. And then the Phoenix Suns went

40
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 1: in to Los Angeles and beat the crap out of

41
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,640
Speaker 1: the Clippers, and then I had some follow up thoughts

42
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,079
Speaker 1: on the Laker game from last night. Those are the

43
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 1: five games are gonna be hitting on. You guys know

Speaker 1: a live radio platform. We're gonna be targeting Tomorrow, Wednesday,

Speaker 1: they're gonna be We're gonna be going live in the

58
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 1: earlier portion of the evening, so the way it'll work

59
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 1: is the first sleigh of games will happen, you know,

60
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 1: the games that started at four thirty Pacific time. When

61
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: those games are done, we're gonna go on AMP and

62
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 1: instantly react to those games. Then we'll go back and

63
00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 1: watch the evening games, and then for shows like two

64
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 1: Day and Wednesday Night, will go on YouTube for the

65
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 1: post game show at the end of the night. So

66
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 1: again you're gonna have two live shows each of the

67
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 1: next two nights, and then another live show on Thursday,

68
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 1: so you can count on three additional live shows per

69
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 1: week on AMP. So you're gonna want to go to

70
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 1: my Twitter feed. On my Twitter feed, I have a

71
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 1: tweet announcing this particular new set of live shows that

72
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 1: has a convenient little link you can click on. When

73
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 1: you click on that, it takes you to AMP Shows.

74
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 1: You the app, you can follow Hoops tonight there. That's

75
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:34,479
Speaker 1: gonna be a huge portion of our content over the

76
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 1: course of the season, So you're definitely going to want

77
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:41,360
Speaker 1: to follow me there. Um. But obviously we're still gonna

78
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,599
Speaker 1: be doing a great deal of stuff on YouTube. So

79
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,040
Speaker 1: those those two places in Twitter are going to be

80
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 1: the three places that you're gonna want to for sure

81
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 1: be following as well as wherever you end up getting

82
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 1: your podcasts if you guys can't get there, because everything

83
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:57,840
Speaker 1: will eventually be redistributed as a podcast. But in terms

84
00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,120
Speaker 1: of timeliness with those live shows, if you want to

85
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,840
Speaker 1: see them live, that's where you're gonna get them, all right.

86
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 1: So starting with Sacramento and Golden State, so a couple

87
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 1: of rough defensive games in a row. For Golden State,

88
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 1: they really really struggled in this particular game guarding dribble

89
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:18,880
Speaker 1: penetration from Deer and Fox and Malik monk Um. Not

90
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 1: just in dribble drive situations. A lot of dribble drive

91
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 1: stuff from Deer and from Deer and Fox, a lot

92
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 1: of pick and roll stuff from the Leak Monk, but

93
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 1: both guys were just getting downhill way too often. And

94
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:31,360
Speaker 1: as we've talked about so much on this show, when

95
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:34,680
Speaker 1: you give up dribble penetration, it's just really hard to

96
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: play good defense on the back side of that. With

97
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 1: how skilled everybody in the NBA is now, that's why

98
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 1: I keep talking about how perimeter defense is the most

99
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 1: important skill defensively in the league right now, particularly Jordan's

100
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 1: Pool and Moses Moody had a tough time in my rewatch. Um.

101
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:54,919
Speaker 1: You know, Moses Moody in particular, was getting kind of

102
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 1: barbecued by deer and fox the um. I talked to

103
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,839
Speaker 1: you guys a lot in season about how it seems

104
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 1: to me that over the course of this season, Golden

105
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 1: State is willing to take a defensive hit to put

106
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:12,279
Speaker 1: Moses Moody through the ringer. It's his trial by fire.

107
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:16,279
Speaker 1: He's getting tough matchups almost every every time he checks

108
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 1: into the game. It's clear to me that they're like,

109
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 1: we see you as the guy that we're gonna be

110
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 1: leaning on big time in our playoff rotation. We need

111
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,160
Speaker 1: you to learn how to play perimeter defense, and so

112
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 1: so much of that is building foot foot speed and quickness,

113
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 1: lateral quickness, which can a great way to get those

114
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 1: reps is to practice guarding super quick and skilled offensive

115
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:41,479
Speaker 1: players and then also anticipation getting reps against all of

116
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 1: these guys during the regular season, so you just get

117
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 1: a little bit better at anticipating what they're going to do.

118
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,159
Speaker 1: That said, this was a win. There was a big

119
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 1: late second quarter run from the Warriors in this game.

120
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:55,480
Speaker 1: Basically what happened was is moody and poor having trouble.

121
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,360
Speaker 1: When the starters came back in late second quarter, UH

122
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 1: Steve curse which Andrew Wiggins onto Deer and Fox. Suddenly

123
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 1: they got that dribble penetration under control because Andrew Wiggins

124
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:08,840
Speaker 1: is one of the best perimeter defenders in the league. Simultaneously,

125
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 1: Steph Curry caught a heater. What a magnificent offensive game

126
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 1: that was from him. You could tell that left wing,

127
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 1: that three point line, left wing extended is definitely his

128
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 1: favorite spot to get to his off the dribble package. Um.

129
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,760
Speaker 1: But when you combined Wiggins finally slowing down Fox with

130
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 1: Steph catching that heater, all of a sudden you're up eighteen.

131
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: And it was kind of bizarre because to be up

132
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 1: eighteen and a half where you gave up seventy one

133
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 1: points is completely insane. And then from there they kind

134
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 1: of held him off the rest of the game. The

135
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 1: game was never really truly hum and threatened until I

136
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 1: think they got back within four and garbage time, but

137
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 1: really that game was over. It's an ugly win, but

138
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 1: a win is a win in UH in an eight

139
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 1: two game regular season. You know, the Sixers and Lakers

140
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,040
Speaker 1: for instance, are losing these times of ugly games, so

141
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 1: there's definitely a worse spot to be in. UM. The

142
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 1: defense is not where it needs to be though, and

143
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 1: that's not a problem. It's only been three games, but

144
00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 1: it's just something to start kind of keeping an eye

145
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 1: on as we go through the season. So here are

146
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 1: some um. Here are some defensive metrics for the Warriors

147
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 1: to start the season. There fifteen and defensive writing. They

148
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:23,960
Speaker 1: are twenty two in rebound percentage, meaning the total number

149
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 1: of available rebounds that they grabbed by percentage. They were

150
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 1: twenty feet in points in the paint allowed per one possessions.

151
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,520
Speaker 1: Not great, but they are doing a really nice job

152
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 1: depending defending the three point line their seventh and opponent

153
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:40,360
Speaker 1: three point makes, which coincides with the fact that they've

154
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:44,080
Speaker 1: only been allowing nineteen point three wide open threes per game,

155
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 1: which is the eighth best number in the league in

156
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 1: that particular metric. All this amounts to, according to Cleaning

157
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,960
Speaker 1: the Glass, the sixteen best half court defense in the league,

158
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 1: so the very middle of the pack right now. And

159
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 1: they are eighth in transition defense according to Cleaning the Glass,

160
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 1: so infammation they're defending the three point line really well.

161
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 1: They're defending in transition really well, but they're below average

162
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 1: just about everywhere else on defense right now. And that's

163
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 1: all amounting to a very average defense. Super early doesn't

164
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,440
Speaker 1: mean anything. This is why I'm a big believer in

165
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,800
Speaker 1: tracking metrics over the eight two Over the course of

166
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 1: a season, no matter who you are, you're gonna have

167
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:24,960
Speaker 1: nights where the Sacramento Kings lights you up because you're

168
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,920
Speaker 1: just not playing much defense. That's just going to happen

169
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 1: to every single team in the league. But that's why

170
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 1: we track those metrics. Based on all thirty teams overall

171
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 1: eighty two games. That's an average. It accounts that for everybody.

172
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 1: And when I'm looking at um, when I'm looking at

173
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 1: these defenses as we progress around the season, I want

174
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 1: to see your defensive rating in the top ten. So

175
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 1: they're in there fifteen right now, so not a great start,

176
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:51,559
Speaker 1: but that's kind of a metric that I want to

177
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,439
Speaker 1: see them hit. Every contender that we're looking at, I

178
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:56,679
Speaker 1: want to see you top ten in defense. I want

179
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 1: to see you at least great great at one of

180
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 1: two things. Either eight at defending the three point line,

181
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:02,800
Speaker 1: are great at defending the paint. Those are the two

182
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 1: most efficient shots in basketball. If you can be great

183
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 1: at erasing one of those, that's a good foundation. Obviously,

184
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 1: rebounding is important and then transition defense. That to me,

185
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,680
Speaker 1: rebounding and transition defensives are all about coaching and how

186
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 1: tight you are in your details. It's hard enough to

187
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,280
Speaker 1: win playoff series when you're not beating yourself, so you

188
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 1: need to find ways to not beat yourself. So let's

189
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,920
Speaker 1: just kind of touch base on that again with the

190
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,199
Speaker 1: Warriors in about a week or so and just kind

191
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 1: of see if they make some improvement on that front,

192
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,839
Speaker 1: which I expect them to moving on to San Antonio, Philly.

193
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,720
Speaker 1: So this one I just watched the fourth quarter, so

194
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:41,200
Speaker 1: they the Spur the Sixers ended up taking a lead

195
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 1: eight to eighty seven on a Joel and Be dunk

196
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 1: um early fourth quarter, and you know you're feeling good

197
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:49,600
Speaker 1: at that point, like playing with your food. We just

198
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:51,679
Speaker 1: talked about this with the Warriors. That's kind of a

199
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,240
Speaker 1: staple of the NBA regular season. When you're playing eighty

200
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 1: two games, it's normal to go through these stretches where

201
00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,800
Speaker 1: you're like the Santata on a Spurs are in town, like,

202
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 1: let's just get through this game, and you hang around,

203
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 1: and then they take a few five point leads, and

204
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 1: you take a few five point leads, but no one

205
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 1: really pulls the game away, and then in the fourth

206
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 1: quarter you turn it up. You get the way you

207
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 1: get out of tempt, right, that's the way you're you're

208
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 1: supposed to handle that sort of thing. But right now

209
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 1: the problem is that the Sixers aren't really playing very

210
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 1: good basketball overall. So after Joel Embi dunks it to

211
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:26,599
Speaker 1: go up seven, the Sixers lose Doug McDermott in transition

212
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,439
Speaker 1: for a wide open three that he nails. Then on

213
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 1: the very next possession, um the uh the Spurs set

214
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:35,960
Speaker 1: a back screen for Doug McDermott, and Daniel House was

215
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,560
Speaker 1: guarding Doug McDermott, and he tried on these next two

216
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 1: plays that I'm referencing that he went on the opposite

217
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 1: end of the screen. And you know that you refer

218
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 1: to that as going under the screen, but on a backcut,

219
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 1: it actually looks like you're going over a screen. That

220
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:53,600
Speaker 1: is a very dangerous thing to do against a shooter

221
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 1: or with a vacated paint, because as soon as you

222
00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 1: get disconnected from a player who's going around a screen,

223
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,960
Speaker 1: you now have to cover more ground then that offensive

224
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,040
Speaker 1: player is covering. And so if you're not flying around

225
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:09,240
Speaker 1: and to make a play, you're gonna get beat. And

226
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:12,199
Speaker 1: so on this one, instead of locking and trailing McDermott

227
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:13,720
Speaker 1: so that if he caught it, you're right there to

228
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 1: block the shot, he went under the screen or over

229
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 1: since it was a backscreen, and ended up too late.

230
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 1: McDermott was wide open for a lap. Very next possession,

231
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 1: Doug McDermott comes off a double wide, pinned down to

232
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 1: shoot a catch and shoot three at the top of

233
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 1: the key. Daniel House tried to go underneath the picks

234
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 1: and so guess what he got disconnected from McDermott. When

235
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 1: McDermott caught there was nobody in his airspace, and when

236
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 1: he rose up, Daniel House contested the shot, but at

237
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:41,199
Speaker 1: that point he's already up into his release, comfortable and confident.

238
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 1: That's not good defense. And so next thing you know,

239
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,560
Speaker 1: after he McDermott goes on this solo eight oh run,

240
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,199
Speaker 1: suddenly you're down seven. And then on the very next possession,

241
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:56,520
Speaker 1: Doug McDermott runs off another seat of a wide screens

242
00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 1: to get a shot, and Tyrese Maxie is on him

243
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:02,280
Speaker 1: this time does a night job locking and trailing McDermott,

244
00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:06,920
Speaker 1: but James Harden randomly just double teams McDermott on the

245
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:10,000
Speaker 1: on the as he's coming off the screen. The Spurs

246
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 1: just skip it across the court pass pass, and there's

247
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:15,439
Speaker 1: a wide open layup because now you're in rotation because

248
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 1: you just doubled somebody for no particular reason. There's another

249
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:22,319
Speaker 1: play in that run where Joel embiide Um made a

250
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 1: kickout pass to Tobias Harris in the corner that he

251
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,880
Speaker 1: missed but then didn't actually run back on defense, and

252
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 1: Yako Purtle just beat him down the floor and got

253
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,319
Speaker 1: an offensive rebound put back. So it's like, my thing

254
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:35,200
Speaker 1: is like, it's okay to play with your food. That's

255
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 1: kind of normal. It's gonna happen during the course of

256
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 1: the regular season. The differences is like the Warriors played

257
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 1: with their food but did what was necessary to win

258
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 1: the game and had these spurts of really good basketball

259
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 1: that put them away, like they did in the end

260
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 1: of the second quarter when the Sixers game control of

261
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 1: the game up eight seven, they went back to playing

262
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 1: bad basketball. And when you start playing bad basketball just

263
00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:59,720
Speaker 1: becomes about variants. You know, like Tobias Harris missed two

264
00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 1: why open threes in the right corner in the fourth

265
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 1: quarter of this game. Like that's variants. Like even good

266
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 1: wide open shooters are gonna miss shot. Sometimes there's a

267
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 1: player retires. Max he caught the ball in the left

268
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 1: corner and had an easy driving layoup, but he stepped

269
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,600
Speaker 1: out of bounds. You know, it's bad luck. That's three

270
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:16,719
Speaker 1: possessions that you lose there. But at the end of

271
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 1: the day, when you're playing bad basketball and you play

272
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:21,760
Speaker 1: with your food, you run the risk of variants beating you.

273
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 1: And in this case, Doug mc dermocconda heater and you

274
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 1: ended up losing a game. So I mean kind of

275
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 1: zooming zooming out. For the Sixers, they're owing three now,

276
00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 1: they will be one in three after tonight because they're

277
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:35,880
Speaker 1: going to beat Indiana. I'd be stunned if they lost

278
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:39,200
Speaker 1: that game. Um, James Harden was awesome in the first

279
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 1: two games, but Joel Embiad was awful in the first

280
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:46,520
Speaker 1: two games. Uh And Bead was awesome in the third game,

281
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:50,480
Speaker 1: but James Harden was awful in that game. Um, you know,

282
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 1: I've I've obviously I've been someone who's been on the

283
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 1: James Harden's Canna Ever revenge campaign? Um type of season,

284
00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:01,120
Speaker 1: their type of a take as it as it pertains

285
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 1: of the Sixers in their potential this year. He had

286
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 1: a bad game. That's going to happen. Obviously, we need

287
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:07,200
Speaker 1: a lot more than three games to determine whether or

288
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 1: not James Harden his back. I still think he looks great,

289
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 1: but he didn't play well against San Antonio. But the

290
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:15,880
Speaker 1: problem there is not that um um, you know, James

291
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 1: Harden played poorly once, so that Joel Embiid played im

292
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 1: poorly twice. They both need to be better. This is

293
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 1: gonna be a consistent theme as we're going down the line,

294
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:25,520
Speaker 1: when we're getting to Paul George and Kawhile Leonard here

295
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 1: in a couple of minutes, or when we get to

296
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,280
Speaker 1: Lebron James and Anthony Davis when we talked about the

297
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 1: Lakers later, Like these teams that are star late and

298
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:34,880
Speaker 1: the ones that rely on their top tier stars to

299
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 1: lead the way. If they are inconsistent and they don't

300
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,920
Speaker 1: consistently find ways to dominate games, you're not you're not

301
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 1: gonna be very good. And right now, the Sixers have

302
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 1: two stars that can't consistently play well. They're not very good.

303
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:50,160
Speaker 1: The Lakers have two stars that can't consistently play well.

304
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:52,240
Speaker 1: They're not very good. So that's something to keep an

305
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,560
Speaker 1: eye on for both of those teams. The Sixers have

306
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 1: had stretches of great defense and stretches of awful defense. Um,

307
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 1: they just need consistency. They consistency from their stars, consistency

308
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:03,880
Speaker 1: and defensive effort, and they'll be fine there. This is

309
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:06,760
Speaker 1: not a roster issue. I've been asked that twice in

310
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 1: our live shows. I don't think it's a roster issue.

311
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:14,040
Speaker 1: It's just bad basketball. They need to play better basketball. Um. Specifically,

312
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,400
Speaker 1: they are twenty nine and transition defense according to Cleaning

313
00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:22,160
Speaker 1: the Glass right now. Uh, specifically, Joel Embiid is absolutely

314
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 1: killing them in that department by just lingering in the

315
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 1: backcourt and trying to draw fouls and doing all sorts

316
00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 1: of stupid ship that's getting him caught up and not

317
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 1: getting back on defense and time, and it's killing the Sixers.

318
00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 1: Big green, you know, big kind of silver lining. The

319
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:41,400
Speaker 1: Sixers are sixth in half court defense right now. According

320
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:45,400
Speaker 1: to Cleaning the Glass, so Washington Cleveland, the Calves are

321
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:47,400
Speaker 1: up by seven in this game with less than a

322
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:51,760
Speaker 1: minute left UM, and it was a pretty remarkable quick comeback.

323
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 1: They didn't even need but twenty seconds to tie this

324
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:59,560
Speaker 1: basketball game. Chris apps porzingis stuck a nasty step back

325
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,960
Speaker 1: three over Jared Allen. The Calves in bound to Donovan Mitchell,

326
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:06,119
Speaker 1: and Bradley Beale just rips him and then goes up

327
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,200
Speaker 1: to the basket, draws a foul, goes to the line,

328
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,439
Speaker 1: makes two free throws, and then the Calves go back

329
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:12,880
Speaker 1: into Donovan Mitchell. He brings the ball to the floor.

330
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:15,480
Speaker 1: Will Barton brings a bunch of ball pressure and he

331
00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:18,159
Speaker 1: rips Donovan Mitchell and goes down and dunks it. And

332
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,479
Speaker 1: like everyone in theren is just looking around at each other.

333
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,439
Speaker 1: They can't even believe what just happened, and suddenly the

334
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 1: game is tied. UM. So the game goes to ot

335
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:30,760
Speaker 1: and uh. Kyle Kuzman in particular was pretty sloppy and overtime.

336
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 1: He missed a couple of free throws, and then there

337
00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:35,640
Speaker 1: was another play where Bradley Beale drove baseline and Kyle

338
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 1: Kuzma was in the week side corner and de lawn

339
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 1: Right was in the dunker spot and as Beale was

340
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 1: going through, you know, we we talked about this a

341
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 1: lot off you guys remember over the summer when we

342
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:48,439
Speaker 1: did our five out Offensive Principles video and we just

343
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:50,399
Speaker 1: kind of broke down with five out offense looks like

344
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,440
Speaker 1: but everything about you know, these dribble drive and kick

345
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 1: five out offenses depends on relocation. So like it's effectively

346
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,520
Speaker 1: like a wheel. As players are iving and kicking, you're

347
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 1: always taking a spot and you're always causing people to

348
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 1: leave their spot and go to empty spots around the

349
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:11,520
Speaker 1: floor and so on this play, Bill's driving baseline, And

350
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:13,679
Speaker 1: so what was supposed to happen is de lan Right,

351
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 1: who's in the dunker spot, is supposed to vacate out

352
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 1: to the corner, and Kyle Kuzma is supposed to vacate

353
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 1: up to the wing, and then as Bill goes out

354
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:24,000
Speaker 1: to the corner, then they all kind of loop around right. Well, instead,

355
00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,960
Speaker 1: what happened is Kuzma stayed parked in the corner, Delon

356
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:29,920
Speaker 1: Right ran into him, and then Kuzma pointed at De

357
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 1: lawn Right to go up to the wing. And then

358
00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:34,400
Speaker 1: Kuzma went up to the wing with him, even though

359
00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:36,240
Speaker 1: he just told him to go up there. All of

360
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:39,400
Speaker 1: a sudden, there's nobody in the corner, and that's your

361
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,800
Speaker 1: main outlet as you're driving and kicking. Like every team

362
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:45,399
Speaker 1: always wants to keep that corner, the strong side corner

363
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,639
Speaker 1: and the weak side corner filled with shooting or just

364
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:52,399
Speaker 1: an option, because when you're driving to the basket, it

365
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 1: is very difficult to make cross body passes back out

366
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,200
Speaker 1: to the wing or to the top of the key.

367
00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:00,959
Speaker 1: The easiest passes are to the corners. You gotta keep

368
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 1: them occupied. So just a couple of sloppy mistakes from

369
00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:07,720
Speaker 1: kuzma Um that caused him an issue on that particular turnover,

370
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:09,720
Speaker 1: Chetty Osman ran out and got an and one, and

371
00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:12,560
Speaker 1: the game was basically over huge place from calves in

372
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:16,040
Speaker 1: in O t um Carris Lavert had a really nasty

373
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:18,359
Speaker 1: pull up jump shot on Bradley Beale, like a step

374
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:19,800
Speaker 1: back at the left elbow where he got a ton

375
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 1: of separation. And then Donovan Mitchell blew right by Delon

376
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,760
Speaker 1: Wright rejecting a pick and roll what got downhill and

377
00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 1: and uh Um got an and one. Delan right in particular,

378
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:32,480
Speaker 1: at a really hard time keeping Donovan Mitchell in front.

379
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:36,639
Speaker 1: Down the stretch of this game, there was a not

380
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:38,480
Speaker 1: only was he beating about the dribble, but at the

381
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,920
Speaker 1: end of regulation, after the catastrophe from Donovan Mitchell that

382
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:44,919
Speaker 1: caused the game to be tied, he hit his step

383
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:49,000
Speaker 1: back move on Delan Right where he exited the frame

384
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:52,240
Speaker 1: like he didn't fall, but like he was. He generated

385
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:56,439
Speaker 1: fifteen feet of separation and Donovan Mitchell was completely wide

386
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,680
Speaker 1: open on the right wing. He just missed the shot. So, UM,

387
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 1: i've it was interesting that Delon Right was even in

388
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:06,320
Speaker 1: the game at that specific point. Um, I would probably

389
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 1: gone with Monty Morris, but I I it is, it

390
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:11,320
Speaker 1: is what it is. I don't know. I haven't watched

391
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:14,040
Speaker 1: the Wizards enough to have a really good feel for

392
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 1: how they all played together. I just thought that Delon

393
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 1: Right kind of felt like the weak link to me

394
00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:22,240
Speaker 1: in that closing lineup. Jared Allen has been the most

395
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 1: impressive Cavalier to me so far. You know what's funny

396
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:29,359
Speaker 1: is is he I hated his contract when he signed it.

397
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:30,720
Speaker 1: Some of you guys who have been listening for a

398
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 1: while I will probably remember that I just gotta crow

399
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:37,600
Speaker 1: on that I was completely wrong. Um, he's a lot.

400
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:39,480
Speaker 1: I hated it because I viewed him as like a

401
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,800
Speaker 1: very traditional shot blocking center that can roll hard to

402
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 1: the rim and and have some vertical spacing. And I

403
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 1: hate the idea of spending, you know, twenty million dollars

404
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 1: a year on someone like that. But the truth is

405
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 1: is that Jared Allen is actually a lot closer to

406
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:57,119
Speaker 1: go bear defensively than he is to like a Damian

407
00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 1: Jones for instance. He is not a stay geotypical rim

408
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 1: protector and vertical spacer. He's one of the best in

409
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:08,080
Speaker 1: the league at it right now who also switches out

410
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:09,639
Speaker 1: to the perimeter really well. There was a play it

411
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:12,120
Speaker 1: was either late regulation, I think it was ot where

412
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:15,240
Speaker 1: he got switched out onto Bradley Beal and Bradley Bill

413
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:17,320
Speaker 1: tried to pull Jared Allen out to the corner so

414
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:19,359
Speaker 1: he could throw it down to the post, and in

415
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,720
Speaker 1: the process Jared Allen just pressured up and Ball pressured him,

416
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 1: forced him to throw a very looping pass and it

417
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:27,720
Speaker 1: ended up getting turned over. And I like he did.

418
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:31,480
Speaker 1: He did well on switches throughout the game. I I

419
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:34,680
Speaker 1: was really impressed by Jared Allen in this one. UM,

420
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:38,119
Speaker 1: and now you know he's better offensively than Gobert. He

421
00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:40,359
Speaker 1: can punish switches and knocked down a little hook shot.

422
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:44,680
Speaker 1: He's more, he's just he's just a damn good basketball player. UM,

423
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,959
Speaker 1: and now his contract looks a lot better than Rudy Gobert's. Obviously,

424
00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:50,440
Speaker 1: Rudy Gobert is a better player than Jared Allen. I

425
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:51,920
Speaker 1: want to be clear about that, although I do think

426
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:55,159
Speaker 1: it's closer than people think. UM, but at his number,

427
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 1: at his contract number, I'd certainly rather have UM Jared

428
00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 1: Allen at this point. The Uh Cleveland so far as

429
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,480
Speaker 1: eighth and half court defense according to Cleaning the Glass,

430
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:07,240
Speaker 1: despite having a pretty bad defensive backcourt. So that's a

431
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:12,639
Speaker 1: nice start for Cleveland. Moving on to Phoenix Clippers. This

432
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:16,800
Speaker 1: game was over in the first quarter. Uh, just just

433
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:20,480
Speaker 1: a clinic in perimeter defense from Phoenix. I was watching

434
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,200
Speaker 1: this game and I made it like four or five

435
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 1: possessions in. I'm like, oh man, that like the Clippers

436
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,560
Speaker 1: are not getting downhill at all. So I started tracking it.

437
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:29,640
Speaker 1: Over the course of the rest of the quarter. We

438
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 1: got through seven minutes of basketball before a Clipper finally

439
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 1: got downhill. And in either engaged to help defender or

440
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 1: or made a layup. And on the play that they did,

441
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,480
Speaker 1: it was a pocket passes Zoobots and I think Norm

442
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:46,679
Speaker 1: Powell cut out of the corner and Zubos dropped it

443
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:48,480
Speaker 1: down to him for a layup. But I was like, man,

444
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 1: that's the first time in almost the entire first quarter

445
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:53,239
Speaker 1: that they got downhill And the main reason why was

446
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:58,720
Speaker 1: the mcale Bridges just absolutely locked Paul George up, like

447
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 1: Paul George is gonna have nightmare is about Michael Bridges

448
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,919
Speaker 1: for weeks. And then they kept going to Marcus Morris

449
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:06,840
Speaker 1: to attack Devin Booker because of the size mismatch. Into

450
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:10,040
Speaker 1: Devin Booker's credit, he kept slidding his feet and taking

451
00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:12,440
Speaker 1: contact in the chest and forcing him to take tough

452
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:14,720
Speaker 1: jump shots. He actually made a couple of them. But

453
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:19,840
Speaker 1: like overall, on the perimeter, Phoenix contained the dribble drive

454
00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 1: and if the Clippers don't get dribble penetration, their offense

455
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:26,919
Speaker 1: falls apart. And I mean, yes, Kauai wasn't playing in

456
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:30,040
Speaker 1: that first quarter, but Quaie in particular looks pretty slow

457
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,120
Speaker 1: right now, and he didn't look great when he came

458
00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:35,600
Speaker 1: in later in the game, So just something to keep

459
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,639
Speaker 1: an eye on for both teams like that. For Phoenix

460
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:43,720
Speaker 1: is a legit weapon their ability to contain the basketball. Um. Yes,

461
00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 1: Chris Paul doesn't look great yet, but they're getting so

462
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:47,520
Speaker 1: much out of Devin Booker right now. Might not it

463
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:51,400
Speaker 1: might not even matter. Phoenix very clearly is still more

464
00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:53,600
Speaker 1: than talented enough to win a ton of games in

465
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 1: this league. We'll get to them more in just a second.

466
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:59,680
Speaker 1: But with the Clippers, they early in the season. John

467
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,000
Speaker 1: Wall really is the only guy on the roster who's

468
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:04,760
Speaker 1: been getting consistent germal penetration, and that's gonna be a

469
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:06,719
Speaker 1: problem for them. I've talked a little bit about how

470
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:08,760
Speaker 1: I'm concerned about some of the age of their wings

471
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 1: and if Kauai and Paul George similar to the Embid

472
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,320
Speaker 1: hardened things, similar to the Lebroni d thing. If Kawai

473
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 1: and Paul George don't start playing like top fifteen players soon,

474
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:20,960
Speaker 1: the Clippers are gonna start to flounder a little bit.

475
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,360
Speaker 1: Um and how deep this league is. So with Phoenix,

476
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,960
Speaker 1: Chris Paul has been off to start the year, but

477
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 1: Booker has been so good that it doesn't matter his

478
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 1: shot making in that first quarter was insane. Hit a

479
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:35,000
Speaker 1: nasty step back over Paul George at the left elbow.

480
00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,639
Speaker 1: He had like a one legged, like crazy double pump

481
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 1: short jump shot over Marcus Morris driving along the left

482
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:43,320
Speaker 1: block that was insane. He had another nasty pull up three.

483
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,679
Speaker 1: By around the three minute mark of the first quarter,

484
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:51,600
Speaker 1: the Clippers were blatantly double teaming Devin Booker out at

485
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,639
Speaker 1: half court to get the basketball out of his hands,

486
00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,160
Speaker 1: and immediately when they did, mcilbridge just got a dunk

487
00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,040
Speaker 1: because now you're playing four on three on the back end.

488
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:00,239
Speaker 1: But just like, if Booker is gonna be this good,

489
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 1: Booker has been playing like a top ten player to

490
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,000
Speaker 1: start the season. If Booker is going to be this good,

491
00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:05,920
Speaker 1: then it just doesn't matter what's going on with Chris

492
00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 1: Paul because how much talent there is on the rest

493
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:12,680
Speaker 1: of the roster um. You know, we we questioned before

494
00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:16,000
Speaker 1: the season, will they, you know, flounder in the standings

495
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,000
Speaker 1: because of some of this drama, And I said, I

496
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,480
Speaker 1: was like, I don't know, they might, But what I

497
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:22,639
Speaker 1: said was they have the most was like, some of

498
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 1: the most talent on the on the entire league outside

499
00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,360
Speaker 1: of their stars. So you know just by going out

500
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 1: there and putting the jersey on, they're gonna win a

501
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:30,879
Speaker 1: lot of games, and so far they're off to a

502
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,920
Speaker 1: good start. Before we get out of here for the day,

503
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:36,880
Speaker 1: I wanted to just drop a couple of thoughts from

504
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:41,399
Speaker 1: the Lakers, um some positives to after what what everything

505
00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:44,120
Speaker 1: that went down yesterday. I have not had a chance

506
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:47,280
Speaker 1: to completely rewatch this game. I'm gonna do that tomorrow

507
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:49,840
Speaker 1: during the day. Um, So keep an eye on my

508
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:52,880
Speaker 1: Twitter feed during the day tomorrow. A couple of big

509
00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:56,960
Speaker 1: bright spots. The Lakers are second in defensive rating. Yes,

510
00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:59,679
Speaker 1: we've been critical of their perimeter shooting for good reason.

511
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:01,680
Speaker 1: I said before the season, they're gonna be the worst

512
00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,160
Speaker 1: in the league, but it won't be this bad. Like

513
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 1: they're literally shooting, you know, and the twenty nine ranked

514
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:12,080
Speaker 1: shooting team in the league is just under thirty percent.

515
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,960
Speaker 1: So like, yeah, I don't think shooting is going to

516
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 1: be a strength of this team unless they make a deal,

517
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:20,199
Speaker 1: which they will hopefully eventually. But the truth of the

518
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 1: matter is is they're they're gonna shoot closer to thirty

519
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 1: percent and closer to with the number two defense in

520
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,360
Speaker 1: the league is going to be enough to bump their

521
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 1: offensive rating down up from the worst in the league

522
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:34,280
Speaker 1: to something closer to the middle of the pack. Now,

523
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:36,760
Speaker 1: you know, I had a couple of people in the

524
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:38,920
Speaker 1: comments yesterday saying, like, how could you view this team

525
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:42,080
Speaker 1: as a second tier contender? Again, if you are a

526
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:47,760
Speaker 1: top five defense and you are a top fifteen offense, Like,

527
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:51,280
Speaker 1: if you're around fifteen in offense, you absolutely are right

528
00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:53,840
Speaker 1: up there with the Phoenixes and the Denvers and the

529
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 1: sixers of the league. That's that's that second tier of contenders. Yeah,

530
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:01,679
Speaker 1: they're not talented enough to be a Slippers Celtics, Bucks

531
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,480
Speaker 1: Warriors type of team. That goes without saying they would

532
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,960
Speaker 1: need an enormous amount of luck in the trade market

533
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,359
Speaker 1: and in the buyout market to reach that point. But

534
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,240
Speaker 1: if they are a top five defense, they have Lebron

535
00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:15,720
Speaker 1: James and Anthony Davis scrounging out a top fifteen offense.

536
00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:20,200
Speaker 1: That's a simple math. You're going to be a team

537
00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 1: that's capable of beating anybody in the league on the

538
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:24,680
Speaker 1: right night. Now, so much of that is going to

539
00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 1: depend on them getting that shooting back up to where

540
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,760
Speaker 1: it was and getting Russ out of the rotation. Particularly

541
00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 1: and crunch time, because you're gonna lose some games that way.

542
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 1: But I just wanted to draw put a little bit

543
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:38,160
Speaker 1: of positivity on this because for being oh and three,

544
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,359
Speaker 1: to have a couple of specific things you can point

545
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:43,960
Speaker 1: to as big positives, like being a great defensive team,

546
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:46,080
Speaker 1: that's something you can cling to, especially in that locker

547
00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:48,320
Speaker 1: room when you're trying to keep people bought in when

548
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 1: the winds aren't actually following the work that you're putting in.

549
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 1: Here's another really good stat The Lakers have played thirty

550
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 1: eight possessions so far this year with Lebron and Anthony

551
00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:01,919
Speaker 1: Davis on the floor without Russell Westbrook have a plus

552
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:05,239
Speaker 1: thirteen point two net rating, meaning they're beating teams by

553
00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:08,639
Speaker 1: thirteen point two points per one possessions. And they've been

554
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:11,240
Speaker 1: awesome on both ends of the floor. So and that's

555
00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:13,000
Speaker 1: too that to me is with Lebron and a d

556
00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 1: still not really playing that well. Like, I think they've

557
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 1: each had two great halves of basketball. I think Anthony

558
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 1: Davis was great in the first half against the Warriors.

559
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:24,960
Speaker 1: I thought Lebron was great in the second half against

560
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,439
Speaker 1: the Warriors. And I thought both of them were great

561
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:31,200
Speaker 1: in the second half against the Blazers, but everything else

562
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:34,480
Speaker 1: has been pretty average by their standards, so they still

563
00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:37,320
Speaker 1: have a lot that they can improve on. But even

564
00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 1: in spite of that, the two of them without Russ

565
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:43,840
Speaker 1: have been a dominant basketball team. That's a legitimate plus

566
00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:45,560
Speaker 1: that you can take from this. And then the last

567
00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:48,040
Speaker 1: thing I wanted to say, I think it's time to

568
00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:51,880
Speaker 1: send Russ home. Okay, So you want to play it cool,

569
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:53,720
Speaker 1: and you want to be patient, and you want to

570
00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:56,600
Speaker 1: wait for the right trade. I get that. I mean,

571
00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,520
Speaker 1: I don't get it at the expense of having Russ

572
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,400
Speaker 1: in the law locker room, but I get that. Now

573
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:06,320
Speaker 1: on the court, you have immense depth in the back court.

574
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:11,160
Speaker 1: You actually don't need what Russ brings you. Troy Brown Jr.

575
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:15,000
Speaker 1: Came in yesterday and basically played the Russ role through,

576
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:17,719
Speaker 1: you know, the most of that second half run, you know,

577
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:20,160
Speaker 1: just just doing the things that they're asking Russ to do.

578
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,000
Speaker 1: Defend a little bit, bigger wings, you know, push the

579
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:25,160
Speaker 1: ball in transition, play off of Lebron and a d.

580
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:27,480
Speaker 1: He did all of those things and did them better

581
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:29,240
Speaker 1: than Russ does, because that's what he's been doing his

582
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:31,400
Speaker 1: whole career. He's been a role player his whole career.

583
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:33,080
Speaker 1: Russ is trying to learn how to be a role

584
00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:36,160
Speaker 1: player on the fly. So you're better without Russ. The

585
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:40,320
Speaker 1: numbers show that, Everything shows that. So rather than like, guys,

586
00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:44,040
Speaker 1: that's toxic. After the Clippers game, I'm pretty sure a

587
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:46,840
Speaker 1: fan like cussed Russ out as he's walking out into

588
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 1: the locker room. Yesterday, Lakers players are answering questions about

589
00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 1: the Russ crunch time thing. Lebron's having to tell reporters like, Hey,

590
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:57,800
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna tell you what you want me to say.

591
00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:01,200
Speaker 1: You know, we had one Toscano Ander Sin having to

592
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:04,280
Speaker 1: defend Russ in the locker room after the Clippers game.

593
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:08,520
Speaker 1: The media is doing their job. They're asking those questions

594
00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:11,880
Speaker 1: because it's their job. One of the biggest stories early

595
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,200
Speaker 1: in the season is how clunky the rust fit is,

596
00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:17,360
Speaker 1: and it literally cost them a game on Sunday against

597
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 1: the Blazers. So we can pretend all we want that

598
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:22,400
Speaker 1: it's not a big story. It is. It is the

599
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:25,920
Speaker 1: biggest story. It's the biggest story with this Lakers team.

600
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 1: That's the reality. Okay. The second biggest story is probably

601
00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,600
Speaker 1: the shooting issue. The shooting issue. The only way they

602
00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:36,360
Speaker 1: can resolve it is by trading Russ, So everything comes

603
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 1: back to us at the end of the day. The

604
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:42,880
Speaker 1: reporters are just doing their jobs by asking those questions.

605
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:47,160
Speaker 1: The real culprit here is Robin Genie for not knowing

606
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:51,600
Speaker 1: somehow or just choosing to not accept the truth that

607
00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:54,520
Speaker 1: if they brought Russ back, the basketball would be clunky,

608
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:56,320
Speaker 1: the fans would have a huge problem with it, and

609
00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:59,760
Speaker 1: the media would would help stoke that fire because it's

610
00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:03,480
Speaker 1: good for media success. All of that is fact, and

611
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 1: they knew that we had tons of evidence to show

612
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:09,640
Speaker 1: that last year, and they brought Russ into this anyway.

613
00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:12,960
Speaker 1: They did this to him. He is a victim of

614
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:16,040
Speaker 1: what Robin Genie have done to him. The media is

615
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:18,720
Speaker 1: doing their job. Russ is the story. The fans have

616
00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:21,360
Speaker 1: every right to be upset. Their team is struggling because

617
00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:24,240
Speaker 1: because of the Rush trade and the rust fit is

618
00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:26,560
Speaker 1: clunky and is hurting the team right now. All of

619
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 1: that is true, but they also are playing well without

620
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,520
Speaker 1: Russ and have enough depth in the backcourt that they

621
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 1: don't need him. So spare everybody the trouble. Let him

622
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 1: go home to his family, Let him stay in shape

623
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:44,200
Speaker 1: and condition, he'll get moved somewhere. The next time he

624
00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:46,760
Speaker 1: plays basketball will be for a team that wants him

625
00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:49,160
Speaker 1: there and that wants him to have the basketball in

626
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:51,360
Speaker 1: his hands. And or he'll be out of the league

627
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:54,280
Speaker 1: long enough that he'll embrace the role player things and

628
00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:56,760
Speaker 1: at that point he can play basketball in a less

629
00:31:56,800 --> 00:32:00,400
Speaker 1: toxic environment. Then the Lakers can patient. If they want

630
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:02,360
Speaker 1: to wait till the deadline to make a deal, they can,

631
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:06,240
Speaker 1: but at least in the meantime they've got all players

632
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 1: that fit alongside Lebron James and Anthony Davis, and they

633
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:13,120
Speaker 1: have time to build continuity with those lineups, because when

634
00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:14,920
Speaker 1: you make the Rush trade, all you'll be doing is

635
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:18,280
Speaker 1: bringing in more players to help supplement that. There's just

636
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 1: no reason to keep him around at this point, Darvin Ham,

637
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:24,560
Speaker 1: you got to save him from himself. He can't help himself.

638
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:27,440
Speaker 1: But put Russ into the game for whatever reason, Darvin

639
00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:29,560
Speaker 1: Ham said after the game. Why they asked him, why

640
00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:31,200
Speaker 1: did you go with Russ and Crunch time when that

641
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:34,080
Speaker 1: lineup was playing so well? He said, I wanted more athletic.

642
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:37,480
Speaker 1: I wanted another athletic perimeter defender out there. Troy Brown

643
00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:40,400
Speaker 1: is a better athletic perimeter defender than Russ. Right now,

644
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 1: that's that that that he played better defensively in that

645
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:47,320
Speaker 1: game yesterday. So Darvin Ham is not seeing it or

646
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:50,760
Speaker 1: is willingly going against it. For the sake of Russ's ego,

647
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:54,600
Speaker 1: you have to save Darvin from himself by getting Russ

648
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:57,120
Speaker 1: out of the locker room. If Rob Polinko wants to

649
00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:00,080
Speaker 1: methodically work out and have an opportunity to prove to

650
00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 1: us that patience was the right strategy to the Rush trade, fine,

651
00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:06,840
Speaker 1: but don't subject Russ to this anymore. Don't subject the

652
00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:11,040
Speaker 1: basketball team to this anymore. Send him home like it'll

653
00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:14,320
Speaker 1: be better for literally everyone involved, and then not to

654
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 1: mention it will help you regain leverage and negotiations when

655
00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 1: the Russ basketball is like right now, you look desperate

656
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:24,720
Speaker 1: because Russ is out there hurting your team. Send him home.

657
00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 1: I don't care if you take two three months to

658
00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:29,480
Speaker 1: make a trade at that point. At the very least,

659
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:31,360
Speaker 1: let this team, this group learn how to play with

660
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:34,240
Speaker 1: each other. Then you can bring in reinforcements when you're

661
00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 1: ready to make a deal. That's where I'm at with

662
00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:39,440
Speaker 1: the Lakers right now. Alright, So, like I said, you

663
00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:41,280
Speaker 1: guys know the drill. Tomorrow we're gonna be doing our

664
00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:45,400
Speaker 1: first AMP show. Um, I believe it's after the um

665
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:48,160
Speaker 1: the evening game. I'll tweet out exactly which game we're

666
00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:50,680
Speaker 1: going after, but we'll be doing a live show there

667
00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:53,520
Speaker 1: and then we're gonna be on YouTube after the final

668
00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:58,040
Speaker 1: buzzer of the Warriors game tomorrow night. So I think
