1
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:09,120
Speaker 1: Went to a local wrestling show. Kids were wilding in

2
00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:13,480
Speaker 1: in the front rope. It was pete guys being dudes,

3
00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:16,880
Speaker 1: just a bunch of bros coordinating moves.

4
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:20,720
Speaker 2: They took flower and slaps in the face. Did they

5
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:22,880
Speaker 2: sign a waiver for this space?

6
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:27,680
Speaker 1: I think that guy is possibly The metal looks like

7
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:28,800
Speaker 1: water bed.

8
00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:33,199
Speaker 3: See a man get it all he has and then.

9
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 4: Drink beers with his dad.

10
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:42,360

19
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,399
Speaker 3: you sent me that one? Oh did I? Good? No, No,

20
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,039
Speaker 3: that's not true. I was actually sent by a fan

21
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:18,679
Speaker 3: to a bunch of us on IG and I wanted

22
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 3: to really make sure you saw it because it made

23
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:24,399
Speaker 3: me chuckle. It's a beautiful little song about indie wrestling.

24
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 2: Is because I went to the guy's channel and it's

25
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 2: all AI music.

26
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:33,640
Speaker 3: Now I'm soured on.

27
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:37,319
Speaker 4: Well, still funny, still very funny. Even these wrestling songs

28
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:37,919

35
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 3: see us in Vegas, those are the Steaks. But we

36
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 3: had one normal regular season game on last night. Yeah,

37
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 3: I was up in Canada.

38
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 4: Well, it was actually entertaining game.

39
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 3: Karl Anthony Towns returned from a one game absence. We

40
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:13,080
Speaker 3: were wondering if he was gonna play. He did. He

41
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 3: was awesome, twenty four points, fifteen boards as the Knicks

42
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 3: held on to beat the Raptors one thirteen to one

43
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:22,239
Speaker 3: oweight for their fifth win in six games. Kat I

44
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 3: guess broke the tie there late with my about thirty

45
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 3: five thirty six seconds to go off a nice brunts

46
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 3: and pass and then he sealed the deal tasks with

47
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 3: that deep three pointer to put the Knicks up comfortably,

48
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 3: and then he was pointing out his chest New York baby,

49
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 3: and they get the win, but entertaining. But what jumped

50
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:39,920
Speaker 3: out to you?

51
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, he sealed it with that one there, making a

52
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 2: five point game. Listen. I was kind of disappointed that

53
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 2: there's just one game on the schedule going into this one,

54
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,399
Speaker 2: thinking the schedule is just giving us quarter finals after quarterfinals,

55
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 2: so they only put one game on the sched But

56
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 2: I was pleasantly surprised that this was that close game

57
00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,679
Speaker 2: going down the stretch. The Raptors continue to get to

58
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 2: the last minute and it is painful. That's just what

59
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 2: happens with Toronto Raptors basketball. Scottie Barnes left this game

60
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 2: had an ankle injury. I don't want to laugh at

61
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,119
Speaker 2: Scotty what happened to Scotty Barnes, but the way he

62
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 2: responded was kind of funny. He was laughed while he

63
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 2: was getting hurt with his goggles. He had to leave

64
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 2: the game. But RJ. Barrett just carried this team all

65
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 2: the way to the end, over and over, going to

66
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,920
Speaker 2: the rim over and over and over. So with a

67
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 2: minute thirty left them down two. I was very surprised

68
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,800
Speaker 2: that Tony Brothers referee didn't allow him and end one

69
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 2: when that's what he did. He had an and one.

70
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 2: He continued to go to the rim. I don't usually

71
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 2: come play complain about the referees, but come on, I mean,

72
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 2: RJ Barrett only got two three free throws in this game.

73
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 2: He obviously goes to the rim extremely hard every single possession.

74
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 2: I'm not asking for a star file. I'm not calling

75
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 2: him star J Beard or RJ Start or whatever they call.

76
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 2: He should have got an and one opportunity. Instead, they

77
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 2: get the ball and they miss that possession, but Rjie

78
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 2: just goes to the rim. I was surprised to see

79
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 2: that he's got the third most shots at the rim

80
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 2: this season. It's Gianni's, then Zion Williamson and all bigs

81
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,839
Speaker 2: around r J Barrett who continues to go to the rim.

82
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 2: So surprised by that it's a guy who goes to

83
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 2: the rim. There's only one game on Tony, just give

84
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 2: him the end one. Brunson wasn't even trying to keep

85
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 2: him on the ground. RJ Barr was able to go

86
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 2: through Jaylen Brunson's arms pretty damn easily, so that hurt.

87
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,480
Speaker 2: It obviously also hurts not to see Scotty Barnes at

88
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 2: the end of the game, to see how this Raptors

89
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:33,560
Speaker 2: team would act in these close games, because we don't

90
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,839
Speaker 2: see it enough. Along with Emmanuel Quickly. I know we

91
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 2: don't talk about him, but we're just not seeing all

92
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 2: these guys work possessions at the end of games that

93
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 2: we're not seeing what they got for Ogn and Obi

94
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 2: in both RJ. Barrett and Emmanuel could.

95
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:48,760
Speaker 3: A game speaks to that. RJ Barrett, Grady Dick, Scotty Barnes,

96
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 3: and Emanuel Quickly. You know, the four best players on

97
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 3: the Raptors at least moving forward. They've played eighteen minutes

98
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 3: together this season. You're right, it's unfortunate that someone or

99
00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 3: two of them is always hurt. And yes, Scotty having

100
00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:00,880
Speaker 3: no leave this game help.

101
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then so RJ. They do end up tying

102
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,280
Speaker 2: the game and RJ tries, well, it wasn't a tight

103
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,160
Speaker 2: this point, but anyway, Sargie got blocked by og and

104
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:13,119
Speaker 2: and Obi. You could say, well he should have passed

105
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 2: the ball. It doesn't really matter either way. He freaking

106
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,040
Speaker 2: worked his ass off to get thirty points only two

107
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:19,800
Speaker 2: free throws, and then Carl Anthony Towns comes the other

108
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 2: way with a twenty nine foot three point shot. I

109
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 2: know he calls himself the best big man three point shooter,

110
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,480
Speaker 2: but damn, if you're taking it out twenty nine feet,

111
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:28,520
Speaker 2: it's freaking far.

112
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:29,000
Speaker 3: Bomb.

113
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 2: RJ probably shouldn't have let him on that one, but anyway,

114
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 2: that's it's just hard to guard when a guy shoots

115
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:37,960
Speaker 2: like that. So great. Great performance by the Knicks considering

116
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,279
Speaker 2: they had, you know, allows you performance against the Pistons

117
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 2: right before this game.

118
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:42,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, what'd you think? Tk?

119
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 4: Towns was awesome? You mentioned the pick and roll that

120
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 4: him and Brunson ran to get the bucket that put

121
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,479
Speaker 4: him up first, hit him with a couple of pump fakes.

122
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,839
Speaker 4: Awesome passed by Brunton. The defense was great by Towns.

123
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,719
Speaker 4: On the Og block, Santa claussm hit him with the belly,

124
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,479
Speaker 4: stood him right up, gave Og enough chance to come

125
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 4: back on the other side and block it from behind.

126
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 4: Because Ogi got screened off pretty hard by Pertle. I

127
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 4: think he was about at the free throw line before

128
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 4: he was able to recover for the block and then

129
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,240
Speaker 4: the deep three on RJ. Barrett, who just put his

130
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 4: hands down for like a split second and that's enough

131
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:14,920
Speaker 4: for Towns to knock it down. I thought he was great,

132
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:18,160
Speaker 4: and I thought Jalen Brunson honestly orchestrated everything for the

133
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 4: down the stretch. He had the four point play that

134
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 4: started the run that ended the game twelve to four

135
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:25,360
Speaker 4: for the Knicks. He had eleven assists in this one.

136
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 4: Seven of those came in the second half, with zero turnovers.

137
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,360
Speaker 4: It's his seventh double digit assist game of the season.

138
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 4: Or James Edwards said over the Athletic he had nine

139
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,800
Speaker 4: all of last season. His scoring is a little bit down.

140
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,719
Speaker 4: He's barely out scoring Towns this season for the Knicks,

141
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 4: but he's making up for it by distributing the ball.

142
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 4: There's so much space out there that the Raptors were

143
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 4: double teaming Brunson trying to get the ball out of

144
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,600
Speaker 4: his hands, and he was making the right play every

145
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 4: single time. The rest of the Knicks were then therefore

146
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 4: able to finish the plays. Great performance by Towns and Brunton,

147
00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:57,160
Speaker 4: I thought.

148
00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,480
Speaker 3: In the fourth quarter, Yeah, and then Bridges hitting three

149
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 3: pointers for the next I think he went five of

150
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 3: eight from deep og you know, filling up the box score,

151
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,040
Speaker 3: but defensively making sort of the play of the game

152
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 3: there where he got back into it and come to

153
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 3: the block on RJ. This team, the Knicks, man, I

154
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 3: looked it up. It feels like they never miss a shot.

155
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 3: They're fifty percent from the field as a team this season,

156
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 3: thirty nine point nine percent from deep, so let's call

157
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 3: it forty percent. That's fifty forty. Can they get the ninety? No,

158
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 3: that's very difficult as a team. That's damn near impossible.

159
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 4: Spell once s Mitchel Robinson comes back.

160
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 3: True, but they're league leading eighty one point five percent

161
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 3: from the free throw line. So fifty forty eighty one

162
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 3: and a half as a team a quarter of the

163
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 3: way into the season. That's lights out here, and it

164
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 3: only feels like they're getting better as they get more

165
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 3: comfortable with each other offensively. So, Yeah, monster game there

166
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 3: from from Kat and their star players, like you said Brunson,

167
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 3: who was, yeah, coming back from some injuries within this

168
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 3: game too. That was a beautiful left hand pass and

169
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 3: great catch from the big man there, Kat and having

170
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 3: to reach over sort of add his feet there because

171
00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 3: it came through traffic and then yet little pump, fake

172
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 3: party put it in. Then he hit the three. But man,

173
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 3: the Raptors task, Like I swear to god, I've watched

174
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 3: this Raptors game I want to say, like seven or

175
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 3: eight times this season. It's the same. It's the same thing.

176
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 3: They play really really hard. The rookies show some flashes,

177
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 3: which they did in this game. There's usually an injury

178
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 3: or two unfortunately, yes, and then they just can't come

179
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 3: through in the clutch despite RJ. Barrett's best efforts, Like

180
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,320
Speaker 3: they just come short. And it sort of happened again seven, eight,

181
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 3: maybe nine times this season, which on one hand, it's like,

182
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 3: at least they're competitive, they're learning here. You'd like to

183
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 3: maybe see some more WS. But then there's a lot

184
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 3: of people saying take the year off. You know, it

185
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:41,200
Speaker 3: is a great draft class. You know, maybe maybe be

186
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 3: flirting with being one of the five or six worst

187
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,719
Speaker 3: teams in the league. Let's let the Raptors fans check

188
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:50,079
Speaker 3: out tankathon dot com every morning and sim that lottery. So,

189
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,200
Speaker 3: you know, I would like to see a couple more WS,

190
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 3: but they're at least in these games, and it's in

191
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 3: a learning experience. I just I'm with you, task. I

192
00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 3: want to see the team play together because they really haven't.

193
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:00,960
Speaker 3: They're star guys.

194
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 2: I guess they're absolutely not tanking when they get to

195
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 2: these last couple of minutes out of each and every

196
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 2: game where they can't finish it off. But it was

197
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 2: surprising to me to see Dave and Mitchell come off

198
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,080
Speaker 2: the bench two huge buckets in the last two minutes

199
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 2: of this game. Monstrous. Also Jonathan Mobo monstrous plays in

200
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 2: the fourth quarter. So when Scottie Barnes is out, Emmanuel

201
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:23,120
Speaker 2: quickly or two of your top three guys go out,

202
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 2: and to see them get to that last minute, it

203
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:27,199
Speaker 2: was damn impressive.

204
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 3: And Jacobe Walter huge yeah me of his career, absolutely,

205
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,080
Speaker 3: nineteen points for the rook six to twelve, hit some threes, yeah,

206
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:35,559
Speaker 3: all in twenty two minutes of action.

207
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,720
Speaker 2: I got his mistraining camp and in his rookie season,

208
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:40,400
Speaker 2: missed a bunch of the games to the start this season,

209
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:42,440
Speaker 2: so we haven't seen a lot of him. But I

210
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:47,320
Speaker 2: love how Jack Armstrong, Raptors color broadcaster calls him Walt Wata.

211
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:49,320
Speaker 2: I'm good with that. Europe from Upstate New York, you

212
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 2: can call anybody Walta because he was working his butt

213
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 2: off and it was odd to see him step on

214
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 2: the sideline there as they tried to get another three

215
00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 2: point shot right at the end of the game. That

216
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 2: that was weird. But again, guys like Davian Mitchell yaka

217
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 2: pertole even a good game to get these guys to

218
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 2: this point, but a great effort obviously by like Ogane.

219
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 2: When you put all these pieces together, you see why

220
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 2: this team should be able to rival against the Celtics

221
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 2: and the Knicks when the pieces work together. Excuse me,

222
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 2: not that they shouldn't rival themselves, but yeah, they obviously

223
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:27,360
Speaker 2: have those pieces and mckel bridges. You know, he ain't

224
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 2: ain't scoring all that much all the time, but he's

225
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 2: gotten somehow, He's gotten better. Right now, he's started the

226
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 2: best the best stretch of his game here. He's had

227
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 2: montrous games recently for him. Anyway, Yeah, five threes last night.

228
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 4: He hit one in the corner with about ninety seconds left,

229
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 4: and he tipped his cap to Bruce Brown.

230
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 3: Yes, okay, exactly, yeah, yeah, I mean, because Bruce Brown,

231
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 3: he is committed to the cowboy.

232
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,880
Speaker 4: Look this guy in wranglers and a fringed leather jacket

233
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 4: last night. Of course with his cowboy hat. I think

234
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:56,199
Speaker 4: he's literally a stets In brand ambassador. He has to

235
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 4: wear one of these. And now you got guys hitting

236
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:03,840
Speaker 4: threes and saying typically captain absolutely me. What's awesome?

237
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,720
Speaker 3: Have we asked Bruce Brown his thoughts on the season

238
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 3: of Yellowstone Curly going on right now? As I would

239
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,679
Speaker 3: love to know, But this stat from Joe Cash here

240
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 3: blew my mind and it illustrates sort of how good

241
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 3: this bad Raptors team is this season, because you know,

242
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 3: I know we're Homer's here, but listen to this. The

243
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:25,480
Speaker 3: Raptors have still won more quarters than they've lost this season,

244
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:29,320
Speaker 3: despite being eleven games under five hundred, So they've won

245
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,559
Speaker 3: more quarters of games forty nine, forty six and five.

246
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 3: I guess is the shakeout there with them winning more

247
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,959
Speaker 3: than losing those quarters? And again, yeah, this is despite

248
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 3: them having just a brutal record here, so how long

249
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,240
Speaker 3: can they keep that up? That is a wild stat. Again,

250
00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 3: that would be something like five or ten games in

251
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 3: let alone twenty plus games, so nuts stuff anything else

252
00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 3: on this game?

253
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I wonder how the Grady Dick experiences is

254
00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 2: going here. Just because he's had to do a lot

255
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,079
Speaker 2: here in year number two. And you saw that opportunity

256
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,240
Speaker 2: where he kind of got caught in between either he's

257
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,079
Speaker 2: gonna dunk the ball or shoot the ball, and he

258
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,559
Speaker 2: fell into the cameraman. The Raptors' broadcasters call him the

259
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,560
Speaker 2: cameraman by his name. He just hit I forget his name,

260
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 2: but hit him directly after he fell into him. I

261
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 2: just wonder if Greaty Dick has gotten injured this season.

262
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:18,480
Speaker 2: He's again had to shoot a ton and started the

263
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:20,960
Speaker 2: season great and it sort of just fallen off a

264
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 2: little bit recently, also missing some games. So I wonder

265
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 2: how that's how that's going for him physically, because he said,

266
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 2: oh the course, what got me here and got him better.

267
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 2: But yeah, he just hasn't looked the same. He hasn't

268
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:35,600
Speaker 2: looked quite right. It's just odd again, No, Barnes, No,

269
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 2: Quickly it sucks five turnovers in the third quarter, of

270
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 2: five turnovers in the fourth quarter for this team. That's

271
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,640
Speaker 2: too many damn turnovers at tend this game.

272
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 4: And it sounds like Quickly's out even a little bit longer.

273
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 2: Yeah.

274
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:47,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, he re examined for his elbow, which he had

275
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:50,680
Speaker 4: surgery on already. Bruce Brown hasn't played yet this season,

276
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,319
Speaker 4: So yeah, Dick does feel like he's slowing down a

277
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,640
Speaker 4: little bit, but he's completely overtasked he should not be

278
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 4: the number two guy on this team, but he's been

279
00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 4: the number two guy most of the season due to injuries.

280
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:01,840
Speaker 2: You're totally right. Yeah, quickly doesn't seem like he's come back.

281
00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:07,360
Speaker 2: He was excited to see his guy against his old

282
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 2: team doing really well. That was cool for them. You

283
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 2: could see he's jumping off off the bench over and

284
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 2: overtix shake hands with RJ. Barrett. He wanted to play

285
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 2: against his old team. But yeah, he's just keeps getting

286
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:20,800
Speaker 2: injured man over and.

287
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:23,840
Speaker 3: Over over, and we'll see how serious this ankle injury is.

288
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 3: The Scotty Barnes, I mean, it didn't look good. He

289
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 3: was like basically had to be helped off the Floridas teams.

290
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 3: I think Darko said it wasn't any like structural damage

291
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 3: or something like that. But I mean Barnes already missed

292
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:36,640
Speaker 3: what was it, eleven games when he got popped in

293
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:39,520
Speaker 3: the face with the right orbital fracture there. He came

294
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:43,160
Speaker 3: back wearing the goggles, the glasses, but they went. I

295
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,960
Speaker 3: think the Raptors went two to nine without Scottie Barnes.

296
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:48,599
Speaker 3: He's important. I mean, the guy's like nearly averages a

297
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 3: triple double. He's their point guard, especially without quickly so well,

298
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 3: hopefully it's not all that serious, but hey, look entertaining game.

299
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 3: With only one game on the schedule last night between

300
00:13:56,960 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 3: the Knicks and the Raft, let's hit the beach.

301
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:11,199
Speaker 2: We got that sack down.

302
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:17,679
Speaker 3: That JD Please Don't tell me a I wrote that

303
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:23,120
Speaker 3: song please Don't Break My Heart? Way, okay, good. We're

304
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,160
Speaker 3: on the beach because it's the only place to read

305
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:27,920
Speaker 3: your emails in your tweets and first one actually it

306
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 3: came by way by Instagram, slid into the DMS and

307
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 3: we pulled it because it was a good one. I've

308
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,560
Speaker 3: been listening since the basketball Jones Love you guys. I

309
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 3: came across a good piece of trivia. Who is the

310
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:41,479
Speaker 3: only player as of right now to win Most Improved

311
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,600
Speaker 3: and make the Hall of Fame. I won't spoil that

312
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,280
Speaker 3: for you if you don't know, do you guys know

313
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:49,960
Speaker 3: the answer to sub? Did you know? Before maybe looking

314
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:50,320
Speaker 3: it up?

315
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 4: I didn't know before looking at it.

316
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought it was a pretty good trivia question.

317
00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:57,640
Speaker 3: The answer is Tracy McGrady. He's the only MIP recipient

318
00:14:57,640 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 3: to be named to the Basketball Hall of Fame currently.

319
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 3: But I was looking at the list of winners who

320
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 3: are active and wondering how many will make it. Three

321
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 3: seem like locks Yiannis, Jimmy Butler, and Paul George, which

322
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 3: will surely be a selection. The Internet loves Kevin Love

323
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 3: is a borderline Hall of Fame worthy player. John Moran

324
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 3: is on track. Some others where it's hard to say,

325
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 3: maybe Siakam, Tyrese, Maxie. I mean, obviously way too early

326
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 3: for Maxi. But when it's all said and done, how

327
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:27,920
Speaker 3: many current mips will be Hall of Famers? Truth? Sick?

328
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 3: Oh question here? Thanks? That is from Nick, So, yeah,

329
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 3: what did you think about this?

330
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 2: Is the question? Yeah, that's sort of fun because you

331
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 2: always think of MVPs and how basically all of them

332
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:41,720
Speaker 2: are in the Hall of Fame except for Derek Rose.

333
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:43,480
Speaker 2: Maybe there's just one who doesn't get in the Hall

334
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 2: of Fame, And maybe there's just one who gets into

335
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 2: the Hall of Fame for most Improved. Just kidding, there's

336
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 2: gonna be one, but right now there's only one the

337
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 2: Trase McGrady one is odd because of as Toronto Raptors fans,

338
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,160
Speaker 2: it was the year he left Toronto that he went

339
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 2: and just had a bigger role in Orlando, and he

340
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:03,040
Speaker 2: left because he didn't have a freaking role. Blame Butch Carter,

341
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 2: You got that. Blame Butch Chris Carter's brother, former NFL player,

342
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 2: Chris Carr's brother. It's weird to think, right last.

343
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:14,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, cool, that's actually awesome.

344
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:17,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, Butch wanted more of a job, want a bigger

345
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:19,160
Speaker 2: job with the Raptors, and the Raptors just fired him

346
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:20,480
Speaker 2: and then he never got another job.

347
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:22,160
Speaker 3: Did he ever coaching?

348
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:25,480
Speaker 2: No, he did not. It's an interesting story. This should

349
00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 2: be attle little doc on that anyway. So who gets

350
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:32,440
Speaker 2: in there's got to be I think three more guaranteed,

351
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:33,680
Speaker 2: three more.

352
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:35,720
Speaker 3: In addition to Giannis, Paul George and Jimmy Butler.

353
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,760
Speaker 2: Wow, yeah, no, in addition to that, in addition of

354
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 2: Paul George Butler, I was counting them as a three

355
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:44,200
Speaker 2: more guaranteed. Yeah, it is guaranteed obviously, and John Murant

356
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 2: most likely. You know, we'd say who knows at this point,

357
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,840
Speaker 2: it's too early. The big question is Kevin Love i'd say,

358
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 2: does Kevin Love get in? I don't know?

359
00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:54,320
Speaker 4: Five of them in?

360
00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, five time, all start, two times all NBA. Obviously

361
00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:02,320
Speaker 2: the championship he didn't score enough, but just just that

362
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 2: there's enough of a story. You think he didn't score enough. Uh, yeah,

363
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:06,159
Speaker 2: I don't think he scored it.

364
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 4: I mean he scored a ton when he was on Minnesota,

365
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:11,399
Speaker 4: scored decently when he was on Cleveland. You got to

366
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:12,840
Speaker 4: compare him to other guys that are in, and that's

367
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:14,960
Speaker 4: why Kevin Love is gonna definitely get in. I think

368
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,440
Speaker 4: he also made a final four when he was in college,

369
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 4: he played on Lebron's most famous championship team. The guy's

370
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:22,680
Speaker 4: getting in, Okay, So that's four.

371
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:25,880
Speaker 3: Then if you agree with Jimmy, Paul George and Gianness, absolutely.

372
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:26,040
Speaker 2: They're getting in.

373
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 3: Okay.

374
00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, I'm not so sure about Kevin Love just

375
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 2: because like he wasn't prominent on that championship team. Richard

376
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:35,359
Speaker 2: Jefferson started for him in the finals. End of it. Listen,

377
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:38,120
Speaker 2: I would put him in just because I would put

378
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:40,119
Speaker 2: him in, But I'm not sure. I know, I know

379
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 2: the bar is getting lower and lower and lower, but

380
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:46,639
Speaker 2: beyond that is there anybody'd even think about this point,

381
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 2: I don't think.

382
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:49,399
Speaker 3: So we named a lot of them. The one I

383
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,640
Speaker 3: thought was a big what if if he never got

384
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 3: injured was Gilbert Arenas. Gilbert Arenas was sort of like

385
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:58,800
Speaker 3: John Morant on his way early in his career, right.

386
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 3: He every eight points per game, six assists, four boards

387
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,000
Speaker 3: over a three year span for the Wizards. He was

388
00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:07,840
Speaker 3: a three time All Star and a three time All

389
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:11,240
Speaker 3: NBA selection, which come you, I surprise, but Agent zero

390
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:13,320
Speaker 3: there was pretty special and then obviously injury sort of

391
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 3: derailed his career. I think he would have been on

392
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:18,520
Speaker 3: his way maybe to a potential Hall of Fame career,

393
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:20,680
Speaker 3: and he obviously one most improved in his similar I

394
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 3: guess to McGrady and that sort of coming over from

395
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 3: what the Warriors to eventually to the Wizards, where he

396
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 3: was a star guard. But that was it. That was

397
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,879
Speaker 3: it for players, I mean outside of I did have

398
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:34,120
Speaker 3: to edit something from this Instagram message he had said

399
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:37,560
Speaker 3: Shae hall of Famer probably, and I was like Shae

400
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:40,520
Speaker 3: Gildas Alexander, I don't remember him winning Most Improved and

401
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:43,120
Speaker 3: he did not, So that was just a minor mistake there.

402
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:44,480
Speaker 3: But I think we name most of them.

403
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, I looked at every single one. Siakham is on

404
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:49,480
Speaker 2: there two times in all NBA, two time All Star

405
00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:50,240
Speaker 2: NBA champ.

406
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:51,640
Speaker 3: I think it's unlikely.

407
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 2: That's unline.

408
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:54,239
Speaker 4: I got him as a maybe. I think he had

409
00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 4: a better chance before he went to Indiana. Doesn't seem

410
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,320
Speaker 4: like he's going to be necessarily adding to the accolades

411
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:03,160
Speaker 4: as time goes on. I also Maxi and jaw As

412
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 4: maybe's kind of along the lines of Gilbert Arena's sort

413
00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:09,440
Speaker 4: of case. They had a great start to the season

414
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 4: to their careers. Let's see how they turn out. And

415
00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 4: then the guys I had questions about sounds ridiculous. Brandon

416
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:19,600
Speaker 4: Ingram and Julius Randall, I don't think so. But I

417
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:22,239
Speaker 4: also don't think Demarta Rosen should have been a Hall

418
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 4: of Famer. But I think Tomarta Rosen's gonna end up

419
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:26,560
Speaker 4: a Hall of Famer. He's gonna play a ton of seasons,

420
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:30,120
Speaker 4: end up with a ton of counting stats, All Stars

421
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 4: this kind of thing. Obviously, Ingram's got one All Star appearance.

422
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:34,920
Speaker 4: I think Randall's got a couple, got some All nbas

423
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:37,199
Speaker 4: as well. They're gonna be around long enough. Since they

424
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:39,440
Speaker 4: came into the NBA at nineteen. What if they played

425
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 4: twenty years and score twenty five thousand points? Like, they're

426
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 4: gonna have cases. And that's the thing is that looking

427
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 4: at this, all of the potential most improved players to

428
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 4: be Hall of Famers are from like the last ten years,

429
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:54,199
Speaker 4: because the way that the award has been decided has

430
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 4: completely changed. They used to give it to a guy

431
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:59,200
Speaker 4: like Tracy McGrady who never played and then suddenly played,

432
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:00,760
Speaker 4: and it's like, whoa, this was actually a Hall of

433
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 4: Fame talent that was buried. Now they're just identifying guys

434
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,160
Speaker 4: who were going to become stars and giving them award

435
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:07,520
Speaker 4: before they become a superstar.

436
00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:10,920
Speaker 3: I guess one name we maybe overlooked from an older

437
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 3: generation a little bit, Germaine O'Neil. Like, he's not making

438
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 3: the Hall of Fame? Is he six time All Star,

439
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:17,960
Speaker 3: three time All NBA?

440
00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:20,240
Speaker 4: Like that's probably eligible at this point, right.

441
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:22,200
Speaker 3: I would think so. But he did win an MIP

442
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:23,160
Speaker 3: way back.

443
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,840
Speaker 4: He's been out of the NBA for ten years. I

444
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:26,720
Speaker 4: don't think he's getting in.

445
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,080
Speaker 3: Probably not his name Hobles, I can't remember his name

446
00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:31,360
Speaker 3: coming up. Where we talk about these every year.

447
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,919
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, I looked at everybody and Lowry Markin has

448
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:38,119
Speaker 2: a chance one day. Probably not. I mean he has

449
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:40,840
Speaker 2: to accumulate a lot between now and the end of

450
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 2: his career. But I looked at a guy like Victor

451
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 2: Oladipo who is not getting in. But if he didn't

452
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 2: get injured, yeah, maybe Goran Dragic if he won that

453
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 2: championship in twenty twenty, if he wasn't hurt, he got

454
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,000
Speaker 2: hurt in that NBA finals when Jimmy Butler pulled that

455
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:58,399
Speaker 2: Miami Heat team to the finals. In a similar like,

456
00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:02,119
Speaker 2: guys who win championships I'm pointing at quite often get in.

457
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:04,400
Speaker 2: And that's why I think Kevin Love where you talked

458
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 2: about Trey, Yeah, he probably gets in the championship. Definitely

459
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 2: definitely helps.

460
00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,679
Speaker 3: Fun question there, Nick got us thinking about most improved

461
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:15,240
Speaker 3: players and their Hall of Fame careers.

462
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:17,679
Speaker 4: I love it. Sicko stuff, great stuff.

463
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 2: Next one, Hey, no donkeys. I was listening to Today's

464
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:23,080
Speaker 2: drop and when Trey mentioned his theory about good NBA

465
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:26,680
Speaker 2: guards bracket they need to be able to dance. It

466
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:28,720
Speaker 2: got a chuckle out of me, and it also got

467
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:32,160
Speaker 2: me thinking, what are other wacky NBA rules about players

468
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:35,440
Speaker 2: you have mine. Good NBA centers must have a special

469
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:41,119
Speaker 2: hyper fixation interest. For example, Yokic with horses, Miles Turner

470
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:44,480
Speaker 2: and Derek Lively with Lego, and Bead with pro wrestling. Okay,

471
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:46,560
Speaker 2: thanks for all the entertainment and happy holidays. So the

472
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:48,720
Speaker 2: whole crew turn up. Love you guys. Awesome. That's from

473
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:52,200
Speaker 2: Jack B. And that's not an initial B. It's Jack

474
00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 2: b E all one, worth checks.

475
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:59,200
Speaker 3: Nimble, sure, all over there. Okay, why do you go

476
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:02,440
Speaker 3: first here? Tku have the infamous All good NBA guards

477
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 3: can probably dance or need to be able to dance.

478
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,040
Speaker 4: You gotta have some wiggle if you're a guard or

479
00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:08,959
Speaker 4: if you're on the dance floor. And I no, no,

480
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,159
Speaker 4: I thought Jack was not cooking when he was talking

481
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:13,639
Speaker 4: about centers with a hyper fixation. But then I'm like

482
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:17,359
Speaker 4: Jack had several hyper fixations. Interesting, Well, Chamberlain had a

483
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 4: notable Yes he did.

484
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:20,879
Speaker 3: I about Kareem.

485
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:22,880
Speaker 4: He had like three thousand jazz records.

486
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:24,159
Speaker 3: That was Kareem' stuff.

487
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:25,600
Speaker 4: Okay, he's a big jazz guy.

488
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,800
Speaker 3: You gotta have one really crazy interest exactly. You gotta

489
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,480
Speaker 3: be in horses, jazz music, or women.

490
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:34,399
Speaker 4: Something off the court, to take your mind off of things,

491
00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 4: to feel recharged every time you go back on, not

492
00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 4: just like a freak being out there seven feet tall.

493
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 4: I got interest. I'm not just a basketball player. I'm

494
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 4: a fully grown, well rounded person. Along those lines, if

495
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:47,920
Speaker 4: you're over six foot eight, you should never take a charge.

496
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 4: M shameful stuff. You're too tall to be falling down

497
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:54,239
Speaker 4: on the floor to take a charge from a guy

498
00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:58,359
Speaker 4: who's taller. Accept that, like Steve Novak, you can take

499
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:01,560
Speaker 4: a charge on shock will allow it. But in general,

500
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,280
Speaker 4: if the heights are equivalent, stay on your feet.

501
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:04,600
Speaker 3: Okay.

502
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:06,399
Speaker 2: Number two, Kevin Love is not getting in the Hall

503
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:06,680
Speaker 2: of Fame.

504
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 4: Then he took some charges. Unfortunately, they got a lot

505
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 4: of floppers in there. I don't like guards who can't shoot, okay, fair,

506
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 4: I do like guards from Kentucky or Seattle.

507
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 3: I'm with you on that.

508
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, they're always good. They are always good. Maybe it's

509
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 4: gonna change, maybe the Kentucky part of things now that

510
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:27,480
Speaker 4: Cali Perry is what an Arkansas guy thinks. So I

511
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,439
Speaker 4: don't think I'm going to be able to bring myself

512
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:32,200
Speaker 4: to be like ooh, that Arkansas basketball player was sick.

513
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 3: Go Razorbacks.

514
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,879
Speaker 4: The Hogs. I do like that name, but Seattle guards

515
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 4: are awesome. It's like Jason Terry, Jamal Crawford, Nate Robinson,

516
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:45,080
Speaker 4: Brandon Roy, Zach Levine, all buckets, the complete opposite of

517
00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:48,679
Speaker 4: the defense first guards, who are my least favorite archetype

518
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:49,040
Speaker 4: of players.

519
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 3: Sure, sure, I love those. I have one. I'll add

520
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,320
Speaker 3: to this sort of a wacky NBA rule boat players.

521
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 3: I think you need to be a cool ass hooper

522
00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:01,080
Speaker 3: to wear number one, Okay, and I think started in

523
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:04,720
Speaker 3: the nineties becoming a fan and you had, you know,

524
00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:06,639
Speaker 3: first off, Rod Strickland, who I thought was just a

525
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 3: cool ass point guard. He wore number one late nineties,

526
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:11,720
Speaker 3: early two thousands, or I guess most of the nineties

527
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 3: he wore it. I should say Anthony harrid Away comes along,

528
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,600
Speaker 3: Penny comes along in mid nineties, he's like, he's cool.

529
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,520
Speaker 3: Trace mcgrady's basically next. In ninety seven. Baron Davis wore

530
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:24,159
Speaker 3: number one when he was before his Warriors' days, when

531
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 3: he was an All Star and stuff like that. Then

532
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,119
Speaker 3: it's sort of Chauncey Billups started wearing number one. Now

533
00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 3: Chauncey Bills I wouldn't I don't think of the cool hooper,

534
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:36,159
Speaker 3: cool ass nickname, balls of steel guy hit clutch shots.

535
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 3: So maybe there's that, then Derek Rose. So I'm looking

536
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:43,320
Speaker 3: at today's cool number ones. There's Booker, there's Lamello, there's

537
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 3: on Men Thompson. I guess who I really like he

538
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 3: wears number one. But then there's the Giant, there's the Alien.

539
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:50,280
Speaker 3: I was usually talking gud too, but now we got Welembanyama.

540
00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 3: So anyway, that's a rule. I know there are a

541
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 3: bunch of other examples where there's not the coolest players

542
00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:55,919
Speaker 3: that were number one. I get that, but that's just

543
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:58,240
Speaker 3: a rule to me that you should have to wear it.

544
00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:00,640
Speaker 4: One's a cool number, you got a cool number, a cool.

545
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 3: Player, specifically a guard to me, and were number one one?

546
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:03,960
Speaker 3: BEA's breaking the rules with that.

547
00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,240
Speaker 2: I don't have really a great direct answer, but I

548
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,080
Speaker 2: have something that's happening in the NBA that when I

549
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:12,520
Speaker 2: was at the Hawks Lakers game on Friday, I saw

550
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:14,040
Speaker 2: a person and maybe you have to notice it a

551
00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 2: person more, but I think fifty percent of players overall

552
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:21,280
Speaker 2: are wearing butt pads. And by butt pads, I just mean,

553
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 2: you know, are cushioned undergarments to prevent them getting injured.

554
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:30,560
Speaker 2: But I see a lot of butt pads out there.

555
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,359
Speaker 2: You know, I'm probably overestimating, but I think guards who

556
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:37,639
Speaker 2: want to protect their ass are wearing them more so

557
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,000
Speaker 2: guards more so smaller players, which is a weird thing

558
00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:42,440
Speaker 2: to think about. But the guys who go to there,

559
00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 2: yeah they fall more, but bigs get hit more. Anyways,

560
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:48,520
Speaker 2: they want to protect their butts, so I see them.

561
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:51,680
Speaker 2: I have staring at Butts's just what happened out there.

562
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:54,040
Speaker 2: And I was also staring at butts because something which

563
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:57,679
Speaker 2: needs to end. Are baby blue jerseys. I gotta say,

564
00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:00,400
Speaker 2: we've seen them with the Memphis Grizzlies where you see

565
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:03,560
Speaker 2: the sweat going through those jerseys and the Hawks where

566
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 2: this jersey shorts combo that's not one hundred percent baby blue,

567
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,880
Speaker 2: but it's got some baby blue where you can see

568
00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:13,359
Speaker 2: sweat to cod of through the butt's it's weird.

569
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:14,760
Speaker 3: Color for sweat.

570
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:16,359
Speaker 4: No, it's sweat, it's not, it's not.

571
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:19,800
Speaker 2: It's weird. So I saw I saw Bogdanovic's butt sweat,

572
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:22,440
Speaker 2: and it's kind of strange. It's just kind of strange

573
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 2: that that happens. It's only that's the only color. Maybe

574
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:27,520
Speaker 2: it's the quality of the jersey.

575
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:30,080
Speaker 3: How is it any different from any of the other jersey.

576
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 3: It's the color.

577
00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:33,200
Speaker 4: It's the color, and there's like there's.

578
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:34,879
Speaker 2: Other so many other jersey that have no color.

579
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:37,600
Speaker 3: No, but that baby blue just gets super dark when

580
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:40,119
Speaker 3: when it's wet from sweat or.

581
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,240
Speaker 4: Other same as when you wear a light blue dress

582
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 4: shirt on the show, you're you're peart screwed. Yeah, but

583
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:47,840
Speaker 4: if you've got the wrong material for a white jersey,

584
00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:50,200
Speaker 4: the same thing can happen. It happens with the Spurs,

585
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:53,959
Speaker 4: like white and brown jerseys today where they look too sweaty.

586
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:56,480
Speaker 4: And last year's Denver Nuggets jersey is if you're wearing

587
00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:59,360
Speaker 4: a black undershirt with them, you just look too sweaty

588
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,960
Speaker 4: right away. It gets dingy, looking like you've washed the

589
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:02,760
Speaker 4: jersey one hundred.

590
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 2: Yeah.

591
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:04,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not crisp.

592
00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:07,960
Speaker 2: But like there's ones out there, like the land ones

593
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:10,400
Speaker 2: for the Cavs, right, the baby blue. You don't see

594
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:12,399
Speaker 2: sweating those ones. Yeah. I think it's the I think

595
00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:15,000
Speaker 2: it's the type of material that the Grizzlies are using

596
00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:17,960
Speaker 2: and the Hawks are using for their throwbacks, which are

597
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 2: are pretty they're nice jerseys.

598
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:23,399
Speaker 3: Pretty just when they're hanging on the hangar.

599
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:27,359
Speaker 2: I think, don't the Sacramento Kings.

600
00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:32,439
Speaker 3: Have their baby? Yeah?

601
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:34,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's more of those are old schools Royal.

602
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,280
Speaker 4: Remember they brought that guy back. That's another cool number

603
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:38,440
Speaker 4: one for you, Oscar Robertson.

604
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:42,440
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, good call. All right, next question here, Hello, No,

605
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:47,440
Speaker 3: Dunk's crew saw another sweet Kevin Love outlet. Pass damn,

606
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,040
Speaker 3: let's talk Kevin Love again. And I was thinking about

607
00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:54,120
Speaker 3: other guys who could be on the All Liam Nisson team.

608
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:57,520
Speaker 3: People with a particular set of skills. Okay, that's the

609
00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:01,399
Speaker 3: All Liam Niesson team. Any other guys you can think of,

610
00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:04,080
Speaker 3: either past or present. The other two that popped in

611
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 3: my head for this team were Peyton Pritchard with his

612
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,760
Speaker 3: half court shots good one, and Rudy Gobert was his

613
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:13,920
Speaker 3: screen assists. Keep up the amazing content as always. Special

614
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:16,680
Speaker 3: shout out to the Monday Night playbacks makes me sort

615
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:20,200
Speaker 3: of look forward to Mondays. That's from Mark from VA

616
00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:23,480
Speaker 3: from Virginia. Mark, hope to see it tonight on playback

617
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,080
Speaker 3: when we get into the NBA Cup games.

618
00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:25,920
Speaker 2: It's not Monday.

619
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:28,840
Speaker 3: No, No, didn't any one last night, Sorry Mark, But

620
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:32,399
Speaker 3: the All Liam Neeson team Trey. Who else is on it?

621
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:35,679
Speaker 3: Do you like his suggestions? Mark suggestions of Pritchard and Rudy?

622
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:38,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, I love it. And obviously you got to include

623
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:42,000
Speaker 4: Kevin Love, well known as the most famous outlet passer

624
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 4: since Wes Unseld.

625
00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 3: Who.

626
00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:47,680
Speaker 4: I think Kevin Love's middle name is named after Wes Onside?

627
00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:48,200
Speaker 1: Right?

628
00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 4: Correct each one, teach one? Yeah, so I wonder if

629
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 4: there'll be another kid in thirty years from now, but

630
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 4: the middle name Love who's throwing outlet passes.

631
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 3: I don't know, it'd be cool.

632
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:58,680
Speaker 4: Peyton Pritchard definitely a half court shot specialist. Rudy Gobert

633
00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:01,280
Speaker 4: the only reason we know about here's some guys I

634
00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 4: would as we talked about Musa Diabate recently, only offensive rebounds,

635
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 4: more offensive rebounds than points per game. That's awesome. I

636
00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:10,040
Speaker 4: hope he finishes the season that way. Got some other

637
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 4: ones to add to you. I think Jimmy Butler is

638
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 4: the best at the cherry picks seal, so he'll be

639
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:19,760
Speaker 4: playing defense, they'll get the rebound, Butler leaks out. He's

640
00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:22,200
Speaker 4: so good at sealing his guy at like the free

641
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:25,120
Speaker 4: throw line. So that then, for instance, Bam out of

642
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 4: Bayo or Kevin Love could throw the outlet pass over

643
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 4: the top, and Jimmy Butler, since he's a football player,

644
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:32,680
Speaker 4: is good at holding the guy off and catching it

645
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:35,680
Speaker 4: and finishing at the rim. Anthony Davis also very good

646
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:37,400
Speaker 4: at that, but Jimmy's a little smaller, so I'm giving

647
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:39,800
Speaker 4: him the credit. I think Tyrese Maxey has the best

648
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 4: pizza pie layup in the game. Right foot, right hand,

649
00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:45,560
Speaker 4: tosses it up, ball never gets to his left hand,

650
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:47,920
Speaker 4: just kind of like scoop, setting it up like a

651
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:49,120
Speaker 4: nice delicious pie.

652
00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:54,240
Speaker 3: It's to me he's so sort of the sort of

653
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 3: the Nash, the Nash.

654
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:59,280
Speaker 4: Basically, he's that he's so adopted for sure. Has the

655
00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:02,200
Speaker 4: best hookshot in game. Shout out to shot Creator. He

656
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:05,480
Speaker 4: takes the third most hooks per game, shoots sixty one

657
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:07,880
Speaker 4: percent on him. The two guys ahead of him are Zubots,

658
00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:10,440
Speaker 4: who shoots fifty seven percent and Yoki, who shoots fifty

659
00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:14,560
Speaker 4: four percent. Their go it's Bucci baby. Isaiah Hartenstein the

660
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:18,200
Speaker 4: pushot floater. Yeah, nobody else shoots it. Derrek Rowse was

661
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 4: the last guy to shoot a floater like Isaiah Hartenstein

662
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,120
Speaker 4: does and last one he saw the stats going around

663
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 4: a lot. Last night. Og Anobi is the best at

664
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:27,640
Speaker 4: blocking three pointers. Did it on back to back possessions

665
00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:30,480
Speaker 4: last night. He's leading the league in blocked three pointers.

666
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:31,120
Speaker 4: He's good at it.

667
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 3: Great all Liam Neesen teams participants, I'll add in, because

668
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:38,800
Speaker 3: he's still really good at it. Plays for your bulls,

669
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:43,680
Speaker 3: the slob Wizard himself, Josh Kitty on the sidelines, he

670
00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:46,280
Speaker 3: just makes good passes when they draw up something there.

671
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:48,240
Speaker 3: He's still good at it, he really is, and you

672
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:50,720
Speaker 3: want him in that position. But I love all those suggestions.

673
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:52,760
Speaker 3: The only other one I have is like Chris Paul

674
00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 3: sort of became the master of walking the dog. I

675
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,160
Speaker 3: think I don't know who would challenge him.

676
00:30:58,200 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 4: He's think John Moran's the best at it now.

677
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:02,920
Speaker 3: He does do it a lot. Yeah, that's a good point.

678
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 3: And maybe because now he's like he's more youthful too,

679
00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:07,320
Speaker 3: so it's like you gotta respect it more.

680
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 2: Right.

681
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:09,920
Speaker 4: He takes it to such an extreme too, like the

682
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:11,400
Speaker 4: ball stops rolling when he does.

683
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,080
Speaker 3: Yes, it does. Yeah, it happened the other night. I

684
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,160
Speaker 3: saw that. But Chris Paul, he's done it for like

685
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:19,000
Speaker 3: twenty years, so I'll give him the nod, but yeah,

686
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:20,200
Speaker 3: maybe Joummeran has the title.

687
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 2: Now else, I tried to stick with guys that have

688
00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:26,200
Speaker 2: this one skill and only this skill. Jose Elvarado is

689
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:29,720
Speaker 2: the grand theft auto guy. I mean he's the only guy.

690
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:31,640
Speaker 2: He's the only guy with those beautiful steels. Then I

691
00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:34,720
Speaker 2: went I went to old school guys that I remember

692
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:37,960
Speaker 2: just weren't incredible at other things. John Henson, if you

693
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:41,320
Speaker 2: remember that monster, Oh yeah, he had a great lefty hook.

694
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:45,320
Speaker 2: Didn't do anything else extremely well, but that's what he

695
00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 2: was there for. Andre Robertson, hellohead defender. Beyond that, I mean,

696
00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:58,440
Speaker 2: what was there? Andre Drummond, he keeps on saying he's

697
00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 2: the best rebounder ever to play the game. He does

698
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 2: right now, He's doing it damn well. As a backup

699
00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:03,760
Speaker 2: for the Bulls.

700
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:07,840
Speaker 4: He's good sixers now, oh yeah sixers Yeah, pretty poor season.

701
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:11,400
Speaker 4: But he can rebound. Yeah, absolutely can rebound. And he

702
00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:15,200
Speaker 4: gets so many offensive rebounds because he misses so many putbacks. Bud,

703
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:16,560
Speaker 4: he's right there to grab the board again.

704
00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,040
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, see I haven't got him confused

705
00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:20,520
Speaker 2: with the Bulls, even though I just wash him the

706
00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:24,200
Speaker 2: other day. Be the great backup for the Sixers. Yeah.

707
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:27,560
Speaker 2: Against the Bulls. Yeah, Yacka purls a damn good offensive

708
00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:29,600
Speaker 2: rebounder and he's he's a pushout. He's got a bit

709
00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:32,200
Speaker 2: of a the Isaiah Hart and shot a little bit. Yeah,

710
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:32,880
Speaker 2: that as good.

711
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,000
Speaker 3: It's different. I'd like to see RJ. Barren at a

712
00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:36,360
Speaker 3: little floater to go back to him.

713
00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 2: Yeah.

714
00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,240
Speaker 3: Man, that guy does really try with his left hand

715
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:41,840
Speaker 3: to get to the glass every time. Respect he drives

716
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:44,479
Speaker 3: all the time, but it'd be good for him to

717
00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:47,000
Speaker 3: add a little floater there. I think he wouldn't have

718
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:49,520
Speaker 3: got blocked, for example, by og if he had the

719
00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:50,960
Speaker 3: floater in his arsenal.

720
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:52,080
Speaker 2: Maybe a little.

721
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:53,880
Speaker 3: It's not easy, maybe so not easy. I mean, there's

722
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:55,400
Speaker 3: not a lot of guys that are like masters at it,

723
00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:57,959
Speaker 3: for sure, even at the elite NBA level. So all right,

724
00:32:58,080 --> 00:32:59,640
Speaker 3: let's uh here, who else is that it? Sorry?

725
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's okay.

726
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:01,280
Speaker 4: That was good.

727
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,280
Speaker 3: We built like three teams there, all leam Neeson teams.

728
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:07,560
Speaker 2: Next one, good one here, good ey, guys. Watching Quentin

729
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:09,840
Speaker 2: Grimes in Dallas. It's good to see a young player

730
00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:12,760
Speaker 2: who some thought was a bust find success in a

731
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:15,960
Speaker 2: new location. Who else has restored their career in the

732
00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:18,880
Speaker 2: early season, but he healed in Golden State. He was

733
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:22,360
Speaker 2: basically unplayable in Philly last season. This is true. Who

734
00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:25,160
Speaker 2: else made a comeback? Cheers? That's from Steve and Melbourne.

735
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:28,360
Speaker 3: I'll go first on this one. I've got a very

736
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:31,440
Speaker 3: sort of like unique name. Well I guess it is

737
00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 3: a unique name when I think about it. But a

738
00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:37,760
Speaker 3: guy way down the pecking order, Shake Milton. That guy

739
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,560
Speaker 3: was a throw into the McHale Bridges trade. It was

740
00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:42,520
Speaker 3: a bunch of draft picks to obviously get Bridges to

741
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:46,360
Speaker 3: New York, but Milton was in that deal and he's

742
00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:48,440
Speaker 3: playing really well for the Brooklyn Nets now part of

743
00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:50,280
Speaker 3: its opportunity. They have a lot of injuries. You know,

744
00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:53,080
Speaker 3: Cam Thomas is out, he is getting a chance here,

745
00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:54,920
Speaker 3: but I think he's playing some of the best basketball

746
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:58,000
Speaker 3: of his career. Shake Milton is. And last year you'd

747
00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:00,840
Speaker 3: probably even forget where Shake Milton played. He was like

748
00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:04,080
Speaker 3: started on the Timberwolves, then he was on Detroit for

749
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:06,680
Speaker 3: four games, and then yeah, he played for the Knicks

750
00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:08,320
Speaker 3: for six games. I mean it looked like I don't know,

751
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 3: I hate to say it, but it was like looking

752
00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:11,880
Speaker 3: like I don't know. Is this gonna be the end

753
00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:13,640
Speaker 3: of Shake Milton here? Is it gonna be like hang

754
00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:16,719
Speaker 3: on to this league? And he's gotten a role, limited role,

755
00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:19,040
Speaker 3: but he's really impressed me. Every time I see the

756
00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:21,560
Speaker 3: next play and I'm like, damn, shake Milton. I remember

757
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:23,880
Speaker 3: when we were high on him as a young promising sixer,

758
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:27,400
Speaker 3: which we like, he had a couple good first seasons.

759
00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:28,719
Speaker 4: For them, and then Ben Simmons replacement.

760
00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:32,719
Speaker 3: That's right still, so yeah, that's right. So shake Milton again.

761
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:34,959
Speaker 3: That is not a sexy name, but just the fact

762
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:38,080
Speaker 3: that he's having some success there in Brooklyn when I

763
00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 3: thought maybe this guy would be out of the league.

764
00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 3: Who do you got?

765
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:41,719
Speaker 2: Well?

766
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:44,000
Speaker 4: Dennis Shruder, also on the team, is having his best season.

767
00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:46,279
Speaker 4: He's not a young guy. He's thirty one years old

768
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:48,720
Speaker 4: and he's having an all star type season saying somebody

769
00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,880
Speaker 4: please take a chance, take a chance on me. Also,

770
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:54,440
Speaker 4: I mean, Buddy Healed, he absolutely nails here. Buddy is

771
00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:57,760
Speaker 4: like the classic cycle guy. If he's shooting fifty percent,

772
00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:59,560
Speaker 4: you're loving it, and then he's shooting thirty percent, you're

773
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 4: like uh, and then suddenly shooting fifty percent of very

774
00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:04,759
Speaker 4: weird Ty Jerome. We've talked about him a little bit.

775
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,279
Speaker 4: Came out of nowhere. Basically it was injured most of

776
00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:10,879
Speaker 4: last season for the Cleveland Cavaliers and just playing really well.

777
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:12,759
Speaker 4: And then Tassa's favorite player of this season I think

778
00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 4: is Dyson Daniels, who has become a player in the

779
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:17,840
Speaker 4: NBA so much so that they invented a new award

780
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:20,640
Speaker 4: for him, Defensive Player of the Month. Didn't know it existed,

781
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:23,320
Speaker 4: but he was the clear guy in the Eastern Conference

782
00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:27,319
Speaker 4: and as you know, probably the buzziest Hawks player. I

783
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:29,240
Speaker 4: would say, I would have thought it'd be Jalen Johnson

784
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:31,279
Speaker 4: coming into this season, people are talking way more about

785
00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:31,960
Speaker 4: Dyson Daniels.

786
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:35,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, and in addition to that, DeAndre Hunter moving to

787
00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:37,799
Speaker 3: the bench has played a lot better than he has

788
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:39,480
Speaker 3: as a starter. And I know a lot of it

789
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 3: has to do with health and stuff like that, but

790
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:43,040
Speaker 3: it's all sort of linked together with the Dyson Daniels

791
00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:43,600
Speaker 3: piece of it all.

792
00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:48,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, with Dyson Daniels, we finally realized or decided to

793
00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:51,839
Speaker 2: talk about deflections per game. No one ever talked about that,

794
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:53,759
Speaker 2: I know, not people who aren't talking about it a lot.

795
00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:55,239
Speaker 2: I mean, last year was it a thing. I know

796
00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:57,560
Speaker 2: it's part of the hostile categories on NBA dot com.

797
00:35:57,640 --> 00:35:59,680
Speaker 2: But he's a guy, yeah, who's just kind of under

798
00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:02,400
Speaker 2: the rate in New Orleans and he hasn't become an

799
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:05,400
Speaker 2: incredible shooter. He's got the exact same percentages, essentially, but

800
00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:07,640
Speaker 2: the fact that he has a bigger role and he's

801
00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:11,239
Speaker 2: still having the same efficiency and jumping from six points

802
00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:15,560
Speaker 2: per game to fourteen points per game and three points

803
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:18,280
Speaker 2: two steals per game, which leads the NBA in deflections

804
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:21,640
Speaker 2: per game at six point five, which leads the NBA. Yeah,

805
00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:25,160
Speaker 2: he's definitely he's probably the buzziest Hawk. It's it's totally true.

806
00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:28,640
Speaker 2: The other night against the Lakers, he wasn't having an

807
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:33,920
Speaker 2: incredible game, but he does things like he's my Marcus

808
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:37,239
Speaker 2: smart Marcus. Yeah, because you can't rely on him to

809
00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:40,560
Speaker 2: have great shots. He can't rely on him in the

810
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:43,120
Speaker 2: great shooting nights. But sometimes, yeah, he's gonna have tound

811
00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:45,480
Speaker 2: money when he does, and he's going to shoot. And

812
00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:47,160
Speaker 2: then at the end of the games, even though he's

813
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:50,520
Speaker 2: had a bad game, he'll play how mutrous. He had

814
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:53,200
Speaker 2: two steals in ten seconds. That steal against Lebron when

815
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:56,040
Speaker 2: Lebron chased him down as he went to the others

816
00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:58,000
Speaker 2: nailment to the other way and had a chase down block.

817
00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:00,719
Speaker 2: I mean, thirty nine year old bron that was cool.

818
00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:03,160
Speaker 2: Two steals in ten seconds against the Lakers in ot

819
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,960
Speaker 2: after having a game. That's Dyson Daniels, who was, Yeah,

820
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:09,880
Speaker 2: the new Marcus Smart. I'll give a little love to

821
00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:11,719
Speaker 2: Chris Dunn as well. I know Chris Don's not having

822
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:14,080
Speaker 2: an incredible offensive the year, but he's a defensive guy

823
00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:17,399
Speaker 2: and he's he wasn't getting a lot of recognition in Utah,

824
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:19,640
Speaker 2: although he was decent in Utah, but now he's getting

825
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:25,640
Speaker 2: that some recognition. I think Najie Marshall is going to

826
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:28,000
Speaker 2: have a good season. I know he's come on late

827
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:31,800
Speaker 2: with Dallas, but he's shooting shooting well fifty four percent

828
00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:34,040
Speaker 2: from the floor. I mean, that guy could play a lot.

829
00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:36,799
Speaker 2: He could be there Derek Jones Junior eventually. And I

830
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:39,840
Speaker 2: will say this, and it ain't a popular answer, but

831
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:45,480
Speaker 2: I'm liking Taylor Horton Tucker to be I mean, wow,

832
00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:49,000
Speaker 2: it's not good, it's not good. But he went from hey,

833
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:51,600
Speaker 2: we're not trading him for Kyle Lowie when he was

834
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:53,360
Speaker 2: a member of the Los Angeles Lakers. We're not trading

835
00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:56,759
Speaker 2: him for anything. And he went to Utah and I

836
00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:59,920
Speaker 2: can't start as a point guard. Sorry man to Chicago

837
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:04,399
Speaker 2: where it ain't pretty, but he is shooting me great.

838
00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 3: It's actually I know. I just look at his numbers.

839
00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:09,800
Speaker 3: I'm damn til dugger's actually bollowed me.

840
00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:12,600
Speaker 2: It's two times, it's two. Three's a game that ain't

841
00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:14,680
Speaker 2: a lot, and he's only playing ten minutes a game.

842
00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:15,400
Speaker 2: It is a.

843
00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:18,399
Speaker 4: Thirteenth man.

844
00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:20,919
Speaker 2: He's a deep and he's a deep cut, very deep cut.

845
00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:23,680
Speaker 2: But I will say he's better than he's ever been.

846
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:28,839
Speaker 4: That's right, It's right, all right.

847
00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:32,399
Speaker 3: Final question here, Hey guys, it's cyber security week again

848
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:35,200
Speaker 3: at work, and I like to think I'm pretty good

849
00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:37,400
Speaker 3: at spotting a phishing email, but it got me thinking,

850
00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:40,120
Speaker 3: what would you guys put in a phishing email or

851
00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:43,319
Speaker 3: DM to trick an NBA sicco or No Dungs fan

852
00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:47,279
Speaker 3: to click on a sketchy link? That's from Bennett in

853
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:49,440
Speaker 3: Santa Cruz. This is one of the funnier questions that

854
00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:52,560
Speaker 3: would ever got TK. Do you have anything that you

855
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:55,560
Speaker 3: would put to trick somebody being a No Ducks fan

856
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:58,160
Speaker 3: or just an NBA fan into clicking on something they shouldn't.

857
00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:00,840
Speaker 4: Yeah. I had to go scammer mode with an answer

858
00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:02,279
Speaker 4: for this. But I think I'm gonna be able to

859
00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:04,960
Speaker 4: trick you stupid fools. I'm trying to trick a No

860
00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:07,680
Speaker 4: Dunks fan. I'm offering ten dollars t shirts from Breaking Tea.

861
00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:12,640
Speaker 3: They'll sold out, like immediately, Like.

862
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:14,680
Speaker 4: As soon as the email was said, they were gone. Yeah,

863
00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:17,240
Speaker 4: so you're getting fished. And if you're an NBA sicko,

864
00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:19,120
Speaker 4: I would send you a link that said, did you

865
00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:22,839
Speaker 4: hear the new Zachlow podcast? Zachlo has a new podcast. Nope,

866
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:23,840
Speaker 4: but I got your information.

867
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:28,920
Speaker 3: That's good. I'd be clicking. I'd be like, damn I

868
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:32,080
Speaker 3: hear that? Okay, what do you keep beat those?

869
00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:35,080
Speaker 2: I would just have a link of check out this

870
00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:37,880
Speaker 2: photo of the No Dunks members without their beards. I

871
00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:38,880
Speaker 2: think that would suck people.

872
00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:41,520
Speaker 3: I justick it along the same lines I wrote, just

873
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:47,120
Speaker 3: in capslocks, lee Ellis, nudes and see if anyone wanted

874
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:48,560
Speaker 3: to click, Well, you could pick any of us. I

875
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:50,239
Speaker 3: think that would maybe work. Do you have an MBA

876
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:55,840
Speaker 3: one at all? Along the Zachlow line? No JD anything

877
00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:57,600
Speaker 3: you jump in here if you got something you want

878
00:39:57,600 --> 00:39:59,759
Speaker 3: to scam some of our fan base.

879
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:04,880
Speaker 2: Now, this question turned me off because I keep getting

880
00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:11,080
Speaker 2: USPS texts. Yeah, and there's a postal strike in Canada.

881
00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:13,799
Speaker 4: We got we literally have packages at the border.

00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:21,080

898
00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:14,160
Speaker 3: show notes, they're all good. Go nuts. Let's talk a

899
00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:16,200
Speaker 3: little bit though about the NBA Cup games tonight, we

900
00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 3: got our first set of single elimination games to send

901
00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:22,279
Speaker 3: a couple teams to Vegas to play for the NBA

902
00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:24,800
Speaker 3: Cup this coming weekend, which is also where we're headed.

903
00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:28,320
Speaker 3: So let's just do a little mini preview here. First game,

904
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:31,879
Speaker 3: A lot one thing you're watching for tonight tasks in

905
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:36,440
Speaker 3: Magic Bucks. This is Orlando in Milwaukee. Obviously Orlando without

906
00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:39,239
Speaker 3: Paulo Bancaro. Of course I now know Franz Wagner. So

907
00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:41,600
Speaker 3: this game lost a little bit of luster here, But

908
00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:42,200
Speaker 3: what are you watching?

909
00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:44,200
Speaker 2: It lost a little bit of its juice. But the

910
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:46,680
Speaker 2: fact is the Magic are going to play hard, as

911
00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:50,200
Speaker 2: they did the other night beating Phoenix and claiming that

912
00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:53,640
Speaker 2: they had a player's only meeting after Franz got hurt.

913
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:56,480
Speaker 2: They do play extremely hard, and I wonder how they're

914
00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:58,879
Speaker 2: going to guard Damian Lillard in this game, because Dame

915
00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:02,879
Speaker 2: had a couple bad games against Orlando last season. One

916
00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:04,279
Speaker 2: of them was good, and then he had two poor

917
00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:06,360
Speaker 2: ones where he shot five to seventeen and two of fourteen.

918
00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:08,560
Speaker 2: Now he's got a SUGS and a KCP running at

919
00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:10,960
Speaker 2: him every single possession. Now, this guy is a monster.

920
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:12,560
Speaker 2: In the first six minutes. That is what he does,

921
00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:15,040
Speaker 2: steps back beyond the three point line and just just

922
00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:19,640
Speaker 2: does dame. So I could see that, or we could see, Yeah,

923
00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:22,040
Speaker 2: a hungry KCP and a hungry Sugs sort of bottle

924
00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:25,160
Speaker 2: them up. Yeah, see about that, because you expect Giannis

925
00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:28,279
Speaker 2: to score a bunch. He had thirty five and thirty

926
00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:30,960
Speaker 2: seven against this Bucks team, excuse me, against this Magic

927
00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:31,680
Speaker 2: team last year.

928
00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:33,080
Speaker 4: This guy's a monster.

929
00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:36,520
Speaker 2: He's just a monster. No, Jonathan Iak Probably that would

930
00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:38,680
Speaker 2: be nice to see those two giants go up against

931
00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:43,520
Speaker 2: each other. He's questionable, but uh yeah, obviously without Franz

932
00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:47,239
Speaker 2: and Bancaro, they're gonna have to stop those two. Dude

933
00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:48,560
Speaker 2: a low scoring game.

934
00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:51,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, Magic Bucks is the only one of the four

935
00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:54,120
Speaker 3: NBA Cup quarterfinal matchups that we haven't seen yet this

936
00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:57,000
Speaker 3: season too, they haven't actually played a game against each other,

937
00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:00,400
Speaker 3: so the home team won all the games last year

938
00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:02,040
Speaker 3: when they played, So there's that little note. What are

939
00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:02,719
Speaker 3: you watching for in this.

940
00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:05,719
Speaker 4: Well, Joe Ingle's revenge game? Of course, For me, it's

941
00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:07,560
Speaker 4: the possession battle, because I don't really think the Magic

942
00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:10,480
Speaker 4: can keep up scoring wise, like you're saying, even though

943
00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:14,440
Speaker 4: Orlando does have some decent options to throw at Lillard.

944
00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:16,000
Speaker 4: You would love to see Isaac be able to play

945
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:18,160
Speaker 4: because they would need him against Giannis. Maybe it ends

946
00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:20,359
Speaker 4: up being a big Chris Middleton game just because he's

947
00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:22,040
Speaker 4: kind of like the leftover due that they may not

948
00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:24,960
Speaker 4: have a great matchup for. But if Orlando's going to

949
00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:27,240
Speaker 4: keep competitive, they've got to get a ton of turnovers.

950
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:29,279
Speaker 4: They got to get a ton of offensive rebounds. They

951
00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:31,920
Speaker 4: had this comeback win against Phoenix. They won the turnover

952
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:34,520
Speaker 4: battle twenty one to thirteen. They won the offensive rebounding

953
00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:36,960
Speaker 4: battle fourteen to nine. Things to go go bitase that

954
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:39,680
Speaker 4: turned into five more shots for Orlando. They won by

955
00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:43,279
Speaker 4: five points. They need as many chances on offense as

956
00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:44,959
Speaker 4: they possibly can get, and then they have to hope

957
00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:47,439
Speaker 4: that Suggs has an awesome shooting night like he did

958
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:49,920
Speaker 4: playing against the Suns when he got really hot in

959
00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:52,520
Speaker 4: the fourth quarter, was getting the crowd all fired up

960
00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:56,480
Speaker 4: as well. Milwaukee their ninth and defensive rebound rate, twelfth

961
00:43:56,480 --> 00:44:00,480
Speaker 4: and turnover rate, So not ideal conditions for Orlando, but

962
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:02,479
Speaker 4: everybody can have a bad game, and I think that's

963
00:44:02,520 --> 00:44:05,360
Speaker 4: what would do it for the Magic is the Bucks

964
00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:08,520
Speaker 4: being sloppy looking across the court and saying, you got

965
00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:11,480
Speaker 4: no scorers out there. Yeah, we're joking around. We're doing

966
00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:12,920
Speaker 4: jokes to them, so hopefully not.

967
00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:15,719
Speaker 3: Well, we'll be joking on playback tonight during this game

968
00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:19,080
Speaker 3: Magic Bucks, seven o'clock Eastern. We're going to probably be

969
00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:20,799
Speaker 3: on for a majority of the game, unless it turns

970
00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:23,799
Speaker 3: into a honor and turns into a blowout. Hopefully it doesn't.

971
00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:27,080
Speaker 3: Hopeully it's entertaining. So join us tonight seven pm Eastern.

972
00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:30,840
Speaker 3: The link to that playback room, it's real, it's a

973
00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:33,520
Speaker 3: real link. It's in the show notes. So you can

974
00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:35,719
Speaker 3: go join our nodunk playback room right now, and then

975
00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:38,960
Speaker 3: you'll be notified when we go live again around seven o'clock.

976
00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:42,160
Speaker 3: Because I assume these games are starting sort of on

977
00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:42,720
Speaker 3: time tonight.

978
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:43,840
Speaker 2: Oh yeah you sure?

979
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:44,520
Speaker 1: Yeah.

980
00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:47,120
Speaker 3: You think tips at seven or seven ten.

981
00:44:49,640 --> 00:44:51,799
Speaker 2: A t game, I know, But they want to start

982
00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:52,960
Speaker 2: the second game at night thirty.

983
00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:55,200
Speaker 3: Okay, I agree with you. I think it's going to

984
00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:57,920
Speaker 3: be closer to it's in Milwaukee though, right it's in

985
00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:02,040
Speaker 3: Milwaukee's time pretty early. Damn good point.

986
00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:03,560
Speaker 4: I mean either way, I mean, either they tip it

987
00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:06,200
Speaker 4: seven pretty early is an early start.

988
00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:09,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're gonna give Max seven minutes.

989
00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:11,720
Speaker 4: Is Red Red Panda confirmed?

990
00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:13,800
Speaker 3: No, No, I just got a little lazy with the

991
00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:15,520
Speaker 3: photop I just wanted to keep one of them.

992
00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:16,200
Speaker 4: Maybe she's there.

993
00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:20,759
Speaker 3: She might be. It's a huge game, and yeah, we'll

994
00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:22,399
Speaker 3: see see the half time act, you know what will

995
00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:24,200
Speaker 3: probably be well, No, I guess I was gonna say,

996
00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:26,160
Speaker 3: we'll be watching the halftime act on playback. But it's

997
00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:27,000
Speaker 3: not a league past game.

998
00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:29,520
Speaker 2: I mean, the Magic will keep it close, though the

999
00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:33,560
Speaker 2: Net's just kept it close against the Bucks. But Magic

1000
00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:35,120
Speaker 2: play their ass off. I don't think they do. I

1001
00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:37,120
Speaker 2: don't think it'll be a I won't be a Giannis

1002
00:45:38,239 --> 00:45:40,040
Speaker 2: early like we are going to see a game.

1003
00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:43,200
Speaker 3: I think I'm not as convinced. I'm gonna be honest.

1004
00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:43,759
Speaker 2: I hear that.

1005
00:45:43,800 --> 00:45:46,120
Speaker 3: I don't know. I'm very excited for the second game

1006
00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:50,200
Speaker 3: at nine to thirty. Uh, Mavericks Thunder, Here we go.

1007
00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:53,600
Speaker 3: MAVs obviously knocked the Thunder out of the playoffs last season.

1008
00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:56,920
Speaker 3: In a fun contest, they're the hottest team in basketball.

1009
00:45:56,920 --> 00:45:59,000
Speaker 3: I think trade Dallas is right now. They've got a

1010
00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:01,240
Speaker 3: seven game win streak. I think they've won maybe eleven

1011
00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:04,399
Speaker 3: to twelve total thirteen. Obviously, the Thunder is a solidier team too,

1012
00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:06,600
Speaker 3: So what's one thing you're watching for mevs? Thunder?

1013
00:46:06,960 --> 00:46:10,480
Speaker 4: Donk versus Dort. Can't wait to see it. Since coming back,

1014
00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:13,279
Speaker 4: Luka Doncic has been awesome in his four games since

1015
00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:15,360
Speaker 4: the return. Thirty one points per game, ten and a

1016
00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:18,040
Speaker 4: half rebounds, nine and a half assists, shooting fifty from

1017
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:20,640
Speaker 4: the floor, forty three from three, and seventy one percent

1018
00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:23,279
Speaker 4: at the line. Can't make a free throw, but he's

1019
00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:26,239
Speaker 4: playing like a first team All NBA player, playing like

1020
00:46:26,280 --> 00:46:29,040
Speaker 4: an MVP candidate. All of his numbers are up since

1021
00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:31,120
Speaker 4: he sat down for a week to kind of get

1022
00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:34,319
Speaker 4: his body right for the rest of the season. Because

1023
00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:36,200
Speaker 4: Luca was kind of struggling out of the gate, and

1024
00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:40,240
Speaker 4: you flash back to last year's series against the Thunder.

1025
00:46:40,719 --> 00:46:43,280
Speaker 4: Dort was giving him problems early on in the series

1026
00:46:43,840 --> 00:46:47,040
Speaker 4: and Luca didn't like the physicality and he was complaining

1027
00:46:47,080 --> 00:46:50,239
Speaker 4: to the referees NonStop, to the point where like he

1028
00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:52,759
Speaker 4: got gilted in to not complaining for a game. And

1029
00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:55,320
Speaker 4: afterwards he told Jared Greenberg, sometimes I forget this is

1030
00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:58,640
Speaker 4: a thing I love. Remember that this guy was so

1031
00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:01,680
Speaker 4: angry with lou Dor through the first three games of

1032
00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:05,040
Speaker 4: that series. Then he had one awesome focused game and

1033
00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:07,879
Speaker 4: they went back to complaining. But it's a one game thing.

1034
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:10,000
Speaker 4: We'll see what Luca does because I think this will

1035
00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:12,120
Speaker 4: be his biggest test since coming back, because you know

1036
00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:13,960
Speaker 4: Dort's going to be all over I'm fouling him every

1037
00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:16,840
Speaker 4: time down place exactly right. You follow on possession one,

1038
00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:18,960
Speaker 4: They're going to let you do it on possession thirty nine.

1039
00:47:19,600 --> 00:47:21,000
Speaker 4: So I'm excited to see that one.

1040
00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:23,200
Speaker 3: Okay, what about you, fast, what are you watching?

1041
00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:26,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm excited just to see Donk out there. Just

1042
00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:28,600
Speaker 2: have fun. Man. It's the same thing that the Minnesota

1043
00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:31,680
Speaker 2: Timberwolves are saying to each other. It's just smile, be happy,

1044
00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:35,000
Speaker 2: have fun, and Luca has been finding that. I think

1045
00:47:35,040 --> 00:47:38,520
Speaker 2: recently he's been so good. He's been so good. So yeah,

1046
00:47:38,560 --> 00:47:41,480
Speaker 2: him against a team that I don't think gets enough

1047
00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:43,719
Speaker 2: publicity in the Oklahoma City Thunder. I know we all

1048
00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:45,440
Speaker 2: talk about them as being very, very good in the

1049
00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:49,200
Speaker 2: Western Conference, but they're still not playing on Christmas Day.

1050
00:47:49,200 --> 00:47:51,560
Speaker 2: They haven't played on Christmas Day since the Russell Westbrook

1051
00:47:51,640 --> 00:47:54,000
Speaker 2: was there. They just don't get the notoriety they do

1052
00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:57,160
Speaker 2: so just them being on a bigger game. I know

1053
00:47:57,239 --> 00:47:59,759
Speaker 2: it's the NBA company, bigger for everybody, but it's big

1054
00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:02,239
Speaker 2: for some and it's big for us, and they need

1055
00:48:02,239 --> 00:48:04,080
Speaker 2: more of this, and so I just look forward to

1056
00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:08,000
Speaker 2: this game again. Like you said, MAVs are extremely hot,

1057
00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:12,360
Speaker 2: extremely hot, while the Thunder at where they are. I

1058
00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:15,520
Speaker 2: don't think people know how good they are. It's it's

1059
00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:17,560
Speaker 2: just a team that hasn't obviously executed a lot in

1060
00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:19,600
Speaker 2: the playoffs. So it's great to see a number one

1061
00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:20,319
Speaker 2: team in this game.

1062
00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:22,680
Speaker 3: The MAVs are one to zero against the Thunder this season.

1063
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:24,520
Speaker 3: They beat them in a really close game. Hopefully were

1064
00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:26,480
Speaker 3: getting something similar tonight. It was one twenty one, one

1065
00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:29,400
Speaker 3: to nineteen. That was back in mid November. No Luca

1066
00:48:29,440 --> 00:48:32,360
Speaker 3: in that game. There was no chet Holgern though, and

1067
00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:34,640
Speaker 3: there won't be tonight. There was no Caruso and there

1068
00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:37,160
Speaker 3: was no Hertenstein, so you know they were a little shorthanded.

1069
00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:39,360
Speaker 3: Obviously no Luca for the MAVs, but they got the victory.

1070
00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:42,239
Speaker 3: I'm excited. Just like you said. With that first game,

1071
00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:45,680
Speaker 3: Tray watched the turnovers because that's what the Thunder do.

1072
00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:49,000
Speaker 3: Due to teams they continue to force turnovers at just

1073
00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:51,759
Speaker 3: an incredible rate. Schumann in his latest Power Rankings, this

1074
00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:54,560
Speaker 3: blew my mind. Last season, okay See led the league

1075
00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:58,439
Speaker 3: with twelve games of forcing at least twenty turnovers. Okay

1076
00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:01,040
Speaker 3: See already has ten of those games this season, a

1077
00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:03,719
Speaker 3: quarter the way through and change. So I mean they

1078
00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:05,399
Speaker 3: just get up in you and then they just keep

1079
00:49:05,400 --> 00:49:07,400
Speaker 3: bringing guys off the bench to play with intensity and

1080
00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:09,320
Speaker 3: play good defense. So that's the number one defense in

1081
00:49:09,360 --> 00:49:11,399
Speaker 3: the league against one of the best offenses in the league.

1082
00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:13,120
Speaker 3: Should be a good game. Should be a good game.

1083
00:49:13,600 --> 00:49:15,760
Speaker 3: That's the second one at nine point thirty Eastern.

1084
00:49:15,880 --> 00:49:17,680
Speaker 4: Who do you think is gonna guard shay Gil just

1085
00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:21,279
Speaker 4: Alexander because last year it was Derek Jones Junior. He

1086
00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:24,160
Speaker 4: was awesome. She was on the Clippers. Naji Marshall, maybe

1087
00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:27,800
Speaker 4: he's questionable with an illness, Oh real. PJ. Washington, maybe

1088
00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:31,000
Speaker 4: he's questionable with an illness as well. Yeah, they're all sick.

1089
00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:32,560
Speaker 4: While they're in the same locker room, in the same

1090
00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:34,400
Speaker 4: plane all the time, I know those guys aren't masking

1091
00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:37,319
Speaker 4: twenty three for forty nine from three last season. In

1092
00:49:37,360 --> 00:49:41,839
Speaker 4: the playoffs, PJ. Washington went against against the thunder. That's

1093
00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:44,359
Speaker 4: what you're he was on fire. They needed the three

1094
00:49:44,360 --> 00:49:47,040
Speaker 4: point shooting to beat Okay. See, Okay, he's a better

1095
00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:49,919
Speaker 4: three point shooting team. This year, no giddy. Obviously they'll

1096
00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:53,120
Speaker 4: be missing chet Holm Grid. But last year it was

1097
00:49:53,160 --> 00:49:55,040
Speaker 4: so easy for the Maps to guard Okay. See, they

1098
00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:57,120
Speaker 4: only had to worry about shake Gil just Alexander, and

1099
00:49:57,160 --> 00:49:59,040
Speaker 4: they had a guy who is as athletic as Shay

1100
00:49:59,239 --> 00:50:02,120
Speaker 4: and Derek j Jor with the length to actually challenge him.

1101
00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:05,799
Speaker 4: If PJ can't go, if Nagy can't go, it might

1102
00:50:05,840 --> 00:50:07,320
Speaker 4: be tough for Dallas.

1103
00:50:07,520 --> 00:50:10,600
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, And we'll see some Quentin Grimes on them

1104
00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:15,080
Speaker 2: off the bench probably. But it is an interesting the

1105
00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:17,920
Speaker 2: lemma that the Maps have just going forward. When they

1106
00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:21,319
Speaker 2: start Kyrie and Luca and Clay, I'm gonna just need

1107
00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:23,920
Speaker 2: somebody to throw at a guy like Shay. And that's

1108
00:50:23,920 --> 00:50:26,399
Speaker 2: why Clay may go to the bench in the right

1109
00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:30,399
Speaker 2: situation for whether it's Nagie Marshall or Quentin Grimes at

1110
00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:31,239
Speaker 2: some point down the road.

1111
00:50:31,320 --> 00:50:34,080
Speaker 3: So those are the only two games on tonight NBA

1112
00:50:34,200 --> 00:50:36,920
Speaker 3: Cup Quarterfinal action. One of them, of course, is our

1113
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:38,759
Speaker 3: pick 'am game. It is going to be this one

1114
00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:43,080
Speaker 3: tasks this Dallas OKC game. I guess was this line

1115
00:50:43,160 --> 00:50:45,319
Speaker 3: smaller than the Magic Bucks one?

1116
00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:45,839
Speaker 2: What was that one?

1117
00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:46,000
Speaker 3: Then?

1118
00:50:46,040 --> 00:50:48,719
Speaker 2: You know it was it was? I think that one

1119
00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:49,480
Speaker 2: was seven and a half?

1120
00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:51,719
Speaker 3: Makes sense, no, Fronds, Yeah, I.

1121
00:50:51,680 --> 00:50:54,000
Speaker 2: Can get there really fast if I have good Wi

1122
00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:56,600
Speaker 2: Fi signal, So I want to say the exact number.

1123
00:50:56,640 --> 00:50:59,920

1129
00:51:12,600 --> 00:51:13,480
Speaker 2: wants to know my location.

1130
00:51:13,600 --> 00:51:16,360
Speaker 3: You're getting any scammed right now? Don't click on that task, jesus,

1131
00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:16,879
Speaker 3: what are you doing?

1132
00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:20,200
Speaker 2: They want to know where we are. They want to

1133
00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:22,879
Speaker 2: know where we are right here, right now. Anyway, it's

1134
00:51:22,880 --> 00:51:25,239
Speaker 2: four and a half point line here for okay, see

1135
00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:30,879
Speaker 2: favorite at home to Dallas. It's reasonable. Why okay, see

1136
00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:33,920
Speaker 2: has to win by five. Trey and myself think, okay,

1137
00:51:33,920 --> 00:51:37,040
Speaker 2: see we'll do just that. Well, Skeetz and Esh taking

1138
00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:38,840
Speaker 2: them ass at plus four and a half, so it

1139
00:51:38,880 --> 00:51:41,880
Speaker 2: can by four or obviously win this game.

1140
00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:44,080
Speaker 3: That's right, that's right, I mean again, one of the

1141
00:51:44,080 --> 00:51:46,480
Speaker 3: hottest teams in the league. Hopefully it's close. I think

1142
00:51:46,520 --> 00:51:48,840
Speaker 3: the Thunder when they do win, they generally win in

1143
00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:50,960
Speaker 3: all blowout they have. I think they lead the league

1144
00:51:50,960 --> 00:51:53,400
Speaker 3: in like net rating, but in all their in all

1145
00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:55,640
Speaker 3: their close games, is like a lot of their losses,

1146
00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:57,560
Speaker 3: you know, right, they come up a little short. So

1147
00:51:58,280 --> 00:52:00,880
Speaker 3: we'll see, got some points to play with. We're on

1148
00:52:00,920 --> 00:52:03,160
Speaker 3: the opposite ends of the spectrum right now. In December.

1149
00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:05,760
