Speaker 1: this KG certified. You know, just to think this is
Speaker 1: something weird or I hear you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I hear bothering, y'all. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: This is us, us, This is us. You know what
Speaker 2: I'm saying.
Speaker 1: But yeah, answered responsibly.
Speaker 3: Certain fast, certain certified, certified, certain, certain certain.
Speaker 2: It's a green summer.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we built differently. He ain't watching the games like
Speaker 1: I'm watching again outside We're alive. This is when you
Speaker 1: stop the production that we go back and we wan. Man,
Speaker 1: this is what I'm really excited about this year. Gotta
Speaker 1: be you know. I know Victor came in, had a
Speaker 1: big splash. I know Cooper Flag came in, had a
Speaker 1: big splash. But yeah, I think we've all been waiting
Speaker 1: for this class of rookies to come in, and yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm just looking forward to the matchups I think I've
Speaker 1: never seen. I mean, ninety six was really deep. We
Speaker 1: always talk about that high classics that was bron obviously three,
Speaker 1: but man, this is a really really deep draft class
Speaker 1: to have some potential future stars on a lot of
Speaker 1: these teams, man teams that I think, like the Lopez
Speaker 1: kid that went to Memphis, I think was a really
Speaker 1: really really big pickup. My dog the league kid that's
Speaker 1: playing on San Antonio team from Korea killed the Japanese
Speaker 1: League and now has a chance to come over here
Speaker 1: and further his dreams. So yeah, I'm following. I'm following
Speaker 1: players that I think got real traction. Boozer's kid in
Speaker 1: Memphis is going to be really good. I think he's
Speaker 1: going to turn Memphis around. Were starting to see the
Speaker 1: end of an era, you know, Jozon, Portland. Just so
Speaker 1: many dope ass storylines that is going. Man, the league
Speaker 1: is rolling nothing, I mean other than soccer. Man, Ain't
Speaker 1: nobody talking about nothing else but the league as we
Speaker 1: should right.
Speaker 4: So, ticket Summer League starts this week in Vegas. One
Speaker 4: of the players has had a lot of eyeballs on
Speaker 4: him because there was the California Classic that happened over
Speaker 4: the past couple of days. Since some teams participated in it.
Speaker 4: Daron Peterson twenty five and twelve looking really good out there.
Speaker 4: I'm curious what your thoughts of him are because his
Speaker 4: his you know, draft class or his number was fluctuating
Speaker 4: a little bit because of the DNPS and stuff.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think Dan Peterson first off, is showing it's
Speaker 1: a couple of rookies that's just showing very polished, very
Speaker 1: poised play. It's funny when you see some of these
Speaker 1: kids in their college form right and in their structures,
Speaker 1: but when you see him in this NBA form, he
Speaker 1: looked amazing. They played him at one a lot of times.
Speaker 1: He was initiating offense. He was an initiating place by himself.
Speaker 1: He was instant offense right away, and he played with
Speaker 1: a lot of confidence.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 1: I think for the most part, when they say are
Speaker 1: saying right away that he couldn't play make and how
Speaker 1: you know, how would he get a shot off? I
Speaker 1: think he started off by just showing as not only
Speaker 1: could it playmate, but he can get a shot and
Speaker 1: he can't get buckets. Man. He was very impressive. The
Speaker 1: other kid that came from Michigan also, that's playing with
Speaker 1: Golden State. So the Axel Yaxel Yaxel with Lindenburgh right, yes, yes, yes,
Speaker 1: a shot at him. Man, he came in looking very poised,
Speaker 1: looking like he belonged, and just looks strong. He looked.
Speaker 1: He just looks way more mature. His game looks looks
Speaker 1: way more mature than everybody else's. Those are the two
Speaker 1: guys that stand out right away. Oh yeah, my guy
Speaker 1: in Sacramento's what's my young guy? Who? I caught that
Speaker 1: one though? Real talk. I thought he had the better
Speaker 1: I think out of everybody, he has the best platform
Speaker 1: to be able to propel. He comes off as a
Speaker 1: very poised guard. I don't think you can speed him up.
Speaker 1: He is very strong and he can get.
Speaker 2: To the rim.
Speaker 1: I love his mit range. I like his I like
Speaker 1: his play man. He's been playing real big for Sacramento
Speaker 1: so far. Think he hit a game winner or had
Speaker 1: a game buzzer beat or whatever I was watching, But yeah,
Speaker 1: he's playing with a lot of confidence. These are these
Speaker 1: are kind of like, yeah, they're setting the bar already
Speaker 1: in some of the league ain't really officially started, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4: Another player that's on the Memphis Grizzy's Kareem Lopez. He's
Speaker 4: the first Mexican born player ever to be drafted into
Speaker 4: the NBA. Curious what your thoughts of him? And you
Speaker 4: should be playing with Camera Boozer, who's drafted in the
Speaker 4: top five.
Speaker 1: Kareem Lopez, the kid that's first Mexican to sent to
Speaker 1: be you know, playing in the league. Born born born, right,
Speaker 1: first Mexican born player, right.
Speaker 4: Yeah, uh, first player from the country.
Speaker 1: In the first round. Yeah, shout to Kareem Kareem Lopez, right, yeah, Kareez, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: I like him and Booze together. I like what I
Speaker 1: like those pillars. You know, you look back at what
Speaker 1: made the history of Memphis. They've always had great bigs
Speaker 1: with Pagasow his brother Mark, you know, z bo They've
Speaker 1: always had you know, really good, really good bigs uh
Speaker 1: in Memphis and this and yeah, this ain't no different.
Speaker 1: I see them too now only playing together, but really
Speaker 1: you know, dominating boys, playing off each other, you know,
Speaker 1: playing alongside each other, protecting the rim and really giving
Speaker 1: Memphis a whole different look from the Ji area. I
Speaker 1: think we're going into the Buza Lopez area, and I
Speaker 1: think these two are very comfortable with each other.
Speaker 4: Nice and then Thursday Night kind of when Summer League
Speaker 4: opens up and the schedule makers did the right thing,
Speaker 4: or to add the number one pick going against the
Speaker 4: number two picks.
Speaker 1: We got Wizards and Jazz opening up. It's only right, though,
Speaker 1: It's only right, man. You know how the league gonna
Speaker 1: stir some ship got to stir some. I mean, we
Speaker 1: gotta stir it up. Maybe, Man, it's only right to
Speaker 1: open night summer league. This is the power Wow. But
Speaker 1: this is what you want if you're those two, if
Speaker 1: you're first and second, you won't nine o'clock. You won't
Speaker 1: you want the game of the night. This, this is
Speaker 1: where everybody gonna be at.
Speaker 2: If you ain't at this game, you square, it won't be.
Speaker 1: No game bigger than this on TV. Straight up. Everybody's
Speaker 1: been waiting on this right here, and these two kids
Speaker 1: now played each other a million times, but now it's different.
Speaker 1: You finally official when you got to the league. So
Speaker 1: now this this is on league floor league soil. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this gonna be it.
Speaker 4: One thing that happened over the past week and we
Speaker 4: haven't had a chance to ask you about, was Jalen
Speaker 4: Brown getting traded to the Philadelphia seventy six ers. Curious
Speaker 4: what your thoughts were when the news happened, And how
Speaker 4: you think the trade's gonna go?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I ain't gonna front man. I didn't think first
Speaker 1: off that JB was in a position to be traded.
Speaker 1: I think, you know, obviously his comments and how he
Speaker 1: felt after they was departed from the playoffs, it was
Speaker 1: one thing. But I didn't think that it cost for
Speaker 1: him to be moved. You know, let's just let's just
Speaker 1: keep it real, man. The seventy six ers got better.
Speaker 1: They not only got better, but they got young stars
Speaker 1: and if they can put this together, Yeah, Nick Nexs
Speaker 1: has a really good team, and you still got something
Speaker 1: with the big fella. He doesn't have to be so
Speaker 1: one hundred percent him and so heavy him. Tyrese Maxey
Speaker 1: is a rising star. You put him with JB and
Speaker 1: Edge Comb man. Listen, man, listen. And then it was
Speaker 1: in conference, So that says something, you know, that says like, yeah,
Speaker 1: we want to see y'all to we want to see
Speaker 1: y'all four times a year. We're gonna see y'all two
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Like to be in conference
Speaker 1: to trade somebody in conference? Yeah, I thought I thought
Speaker 1: he was. I thought they was going to actually pair
Speaker 1: with Jannis and having those pieces there to do that.
Speaker 1: But obviously that didn't happen. Yeah, I'm questioning a lot
Speaker 1: of the Rad Stevens thoughts on that. But yeah, it
Speaker 1: looks like it came down to business and money and
Speaker 1: it wasn't about basketball and the things that you know,
Speaker 1: yester year yesteryear in traditional ways would have it. Think
Speaker 1: him in a new era of business and how basketball
Speaker 1: is gonna be done from their own.
Speaker 4: But for Jama Brown, ten years in Boston, he won
Speaker 4: a title, went to the finals twice, finals MVP. He
Speaker 4: had a good run in his ten years in Boston.
Speaker 1: Just gonna be like that catch trade. It's like Minnesota
Speaker 1: kicking themselves over the catch trade. Just I think Boston
Speaker 1: gonna look back on this. It's like where Kadi left
Speaker 1: Golden State and then he turned around like the fuck,
Speaker 1: Like there's one of the moments where you don't break
Speaker 1: a great thing up. This is a great thing. They
Speaker 1: just had to you know, and then too, man, don't
Speaker 1: really keeping it real man that those two have been
Speaker 1: tested through the thicket, through the time and time. So
Speaker 1: this is just relationship. It ain't always gonna be great,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, but it would have to
Speaker 1: be something detrimental for me to break that up. That
Speaker 1: was probably to me the most Yeah, that was probably
Speaker 1: the most dynamic duo in the lead to me, you
Speaker 1: know if and then they played off each other, and
Speaker 1: then they had a great support and cast with coaching
Speaker 1: all that. It's hard to get that mixed perfect like that,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: Especially for all y'all using Jiffy. You know, if y'all
Speaker 1: ain't using that real. If y'all throwing Jiffy in there,
Speaker 1: it's gonna be Jiffy. It ain't that real.
Speaker 2: Coin meal ain't gonna when you go to lock, it
Speaker 2: ain't really locking.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. If you know cornbread, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Yeah, all cornbread lovers know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. But yeah, man, I hate. I ain't gonna front.
Speaker 3: I do not.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I ain't like the trade. I ain't gonna front. Man.
Speaker 1: I wanted JB to retire as a Celtic and you
Speaker 1: know they be able to go through that. But yeah,
Speaker 1: we in something else, and I think we're entering a
Speaker 1: new era. Real shit, All this new movement is all
Speaker 1: new era, you know.
Speaker 4: Yeah, a couple of the things that happened that quickly.
Speaker 4: They want to ask you about Lebron. James said, hey, Lakers,
Speaker 4: see you later. It was a good run and now
Speaker 4: he's open season to go anywhere. We talked a couple
Speaker 4: of weeks ago. You mentioned Cleveland as being a team.
Speaker 4: I'm curious if you've changed your mind or what you
Speaker 4: think about the best situation.
Speaker 1: With Ron just before you know, Dolan, don't resign Mitchell Robinson,
Speaker 1: you know, like like the Knicks didn't even get to.
Speaker 2: Run that back.
Speaker 4: Man, he's a Celtic.
Speaker 1: Now, Oh man, that's crazy.
Speaker 2: I love it. I love it.
Speaker 1: I love it for us, But I'm as a fan, bro,
Speaker 1: like you want that team to run it back against
Speaker 1: some of this new shit, right, they didn't even get
Speaker 1: a chance to run it back, man, Like, Man, just man,
Speaker 1: I was doing too much. Man, you waited fifty years
Speaker 1: to get here, Wait fifty years to fuck now you
Speaker 1: get a chance to fuck you're telling about, Man, I'm
Speaker 1: so mad for New York and I'm so mad that
Speaker 1: we don't get to see that team against all this
Speaker 1: new you know what I'm saying, Like it's a whole
Speaker 1: new year now.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 2: So if I'm Ron, shit, I look at New York,
Speaker 2: I look at these bigger markets.
Speaker 1: I look at Man. He can go and help New York,
Speaker 1: you know, and they lost a lot with mitch Man.
Speaker 1: They Yeah, Man, I don't know. I actually think him
Speaker 1: going to Cleveland is the most obvious because he has
Speaker 1: a lot of leverage there. I mean, Cleveland can use
Speaker 1: you know what he has. He has a different confidence
Speaker 1: in the playoffs, he has a different leadership. Uh, he's
Speaker 1: the king in that city, you know. And then I
Speaker 1: think he can inspire those pieces around there. I think
Speaker 1: he can get Mobile to play better. I think he
Speaker 1: can get everybody in there to play on another level.
Speaker 1: And then I think him to Donovan, if they can
Speaker 1: put that together, that'd be like d Wade to Bron
Speaker 1: when he went to Miami. Brown was a nice guy, cool, hey,
Speaker 1: you know care when he got down there with d Wade,
Speaker 1: d red game. You know what I'm saying, game, that
Speaker 1: fuck you. And that's how I gonna see Bron do
Speaker 1: Donovan if that could ever be. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I think I think Donovan is more of a student
Speaker 1: than anything that Bron's ever played with. You know, I
Speaker 1: think he had his own power, in his own light
Speaker 1: and his own aura. I think Donovan is a little
Speaker 1: more receptive and little more open to absorbing greatness and
Speaker 1: trying to get to another level because he got it.
Speaker 1: He just needs those little small secrets and that small
Speaker 1: confidence to push through certain parts when it started looking
Speaker 1: grim in the playoffs. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4: So you like Cleveland and New York? What about Philly
Speaker 4: with getting Jaylen Brown? If you're Lebron James looking at.
Speaker 1: That only one ball? Okay, I don't know if he
Speaker 1: goes to Philly, God damn, that's like the circus and
Speaker 1: I don't know if and I don't know if all
Speaker 1: those pieces can work with each other. Edge Calm on
Speaker 1: the way up. You know what I'm saying. Big fella
Speaker 1: gonna feel some type of way. You know, once he hit,
Speaker 1: once he hit the black hole, it don't come out
Speaker 1: the black hole and then be get it.
Speaker 2: You don't come out of that, Mommy.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. It's going up, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So, yeah, I don't like him in Philly.
Speaker 1: I think if you go to Philly that's just that's
Speaker 1: a lot. I mean, I like that for him. That
Speaker 1: might actually grow his his time in the league because
Speaker 1: wouldn't have to do so much every night. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I like him in Cleveland, New yor York. I think
Speaker 1: that makes sense.
Speaker 4: And then another another guy that moves was John Morant
Speaker 4: going to Portland.
Speaker 1: Thoughtless of that like that for job man job being
Speaker 1: the number one shoe with Nike for a minute. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, It's only right to go to Portland.
Speaker 1: It's a new new energy. It's not Memphis. Might be
Speaker 1: totally flips flip side of the coin, not saying Portland
Speaker 1: ain't got its own issues, but it's a place where
Speaker 1: you can actually get a bunch of space, breathe fresh air.
Speaker 1: They got a whole wellness community out there that he
Speaker 1: can tap into. Seattle's like ninety minutes up the road,
Speaker 1: Like the north West is probably one of the prettiest,
Speaker 1: most beautiful places that you can never go to. Man,
Speaker 1: it's probably it's probably untapped too with Seattle, you know,
Speaker 1: just not coming back. But yeah, that whole area is
Speaker 1: so unexplored. If he can tap into that. You know,
Speaker 1: Vancouver is a couple hours from Seattle, like you thinking
Speaker 1: really going in and just you know, Dame still there.
Speaker 1: They still got Holiday. If I'm Portland, I wouldn't get
Speaker 1: rid of no guards because you got to have the
Speaker 1: guard play for OKC. You gotta have guard play for
Speaker 1: the Spurs. You ain't got guard play. You ain't got
Speaker 1: three four guards that can come in here. Bring the
Speaker 1: ball up, initiate. Man, You're gonna be in some shit
Speaker 1: in the West, you know what I'm saying. So if
Speaker 1: I'm Portland, I keep those pieces. And John Morin got
Speaker 1: them Dame lillond.
Speaker 2: And Holliday Holiday and then they still got Danny Boy.
Speaker 1: You understand, bro, Listen, you got big wims, you got
Speaker 1: my daughter from Connecticut. What's a big fellow name from Connecticut?
Speaker 1: They're clinging?
Speaker 2: I like that, man, you hey, listen, man, listen, man, listen.
Speaker 1: I like Portland. Pete called that shit, didn't he, Man,
Speaker 1: he called that shit. I don't even know how he
Speaker 1: did that, but he called that one. But yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: looking forward to Portland, man, I'm looking forward to all
Speaker 1: the young rookies. I'm looking forward to Washington and seeing
Speaker 1: how they play. Washington has two guys, two three young
Speaker 1: guys that didn't get a lot of shine, but they
Speaker 1: are really good. You know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 4: George uh Storrs, another person you're talking about.
Speaker 1: They got a coming tint or a sudden tent over there.
Speaker 1: What's that young kid?
Speaker 2: Cool it? BALI?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I love him. So they got to That's what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. I'm worried about young fella over there. That
Speaker 1: kid started. That kid not started like three years.
Speaker 2: That kid ain't no. He played the three for real,
Speaker 2: for real.
Speaker 1: You feel me here in the field for real, for real.
Speaker 2: Now, your boy beat your shit, he'll dunk your ass,
Speaker 2: he'll trade ball you.
Speaker 1: Hey, listen, they gonna get aj together over there because
Speaker 1: they got some real They got some competition over there.
Speaker 1: They got some young guys over there that I think
Speaker 1: that's gonna gonna push him to the max man straight up,
Speaker 1: And I think I love that for his growth. It
Speaker 1: may be frustrated in the beginning, but y'all hope he
Speaker 1: find his way over there. But yeah, I like Washington. Man.
Speaker 1: Washington got a lot of good pieces. Man, it ain't
Speaker 1: nobody talking about so yeah, man, Yeah, subscribers taped in
